This is nothing new. It is 8 00:00:40,817 --> 00:00:44,377 Speaker 1: practically a part of the job description. Look, politicians lie 9 00:00:44,417 --> 00:00:46,657 Speaker 1: and lie and lie. Then they take a deep breath. 10 00:00:46,697 --> 00:00:48,897 Speaker 1: Then they lie some more. Then the ones in DC 11 00:00:49,137 --> 00:00:51,977 Speaker 1: go have dinner at the Diplomat. Then they go back 12 00:00:51,977 --> 00:00:53,537 Speaker 1: to their office and they lie some more, and then 13 00:00:53,577 --> 00:00:55,817 Speaker 1: they take a deep breath. Then they lie some more. 14 00:00:56,057 --> 00:00:58,417 Speaker 1: Then they get on the phone, lie to their donors, 15 00:00:58,657 --> 00:01:01,057 Speaker 1: get more money so that they can lie to you. 16 00:01:01,417 --> 00:01:04,617 Speaker 1: This is what politicians do. And I am no longer 17 00:01:04,737 --> 00:01:08,337 Speaker 1: shocked by this. But guys, the lies that are coming 18 00:01:08,417 --> 00:01:13,137 Speaker 1: from the Biden administration our next level, precisely because these 19 00:01:13,177 --> 00:01:16,577 Speaker 1: people are lying about the very things that are currently 20 00:01:16,617 --> 00:01:20,217 Speaker 1: making your life and mine that much harder. Yeah, I 21 00:01:20,337 --> 00:01:22,537 Speaker 1: said my life. Look you see me on the TV 22 00:01:22,617 --> 00:01:24,497 Speaker 1: screen and hear me on the podcast. But I am 23 00:01:24,577 --> 00:01:28,737 Speaker 1: not some multi millionaire. I am not Kim Kardashian. I'm 24 00:01:28,777 --> 00:01:31,657 Speaker 1: not jumping on my yacht after this show. I am 25 00:01:31,777 --> 00:01:35,297 Speaker 1: very far from it. Look, guys, gas and groceries that 26 00:01:35,337 --> 00:01:39,497 Speaker 1: are more expensive hurts. It hurts me, It hurts you 27 00:01:39,817 --> 00:01:42,377 Speaker 1: who it does not hurt who does not really care 28 00:01:42,417 --> 00:01:45,857 Speaker 1: about all of this stuff any further than the lies 29 00:01:45,857 --> 00:01:48,017 Speaker 1: that they tell you from the podium. Are the people 30 00:01:48,017 --> 00:01:51,657 Speaker 1: in the Biden administration? Are these bureaucrats, These people who 31 00:01:51,737 --> 00:01:56,017 Speaker 1: have been in DC screwing up for decades and decades 32 00:01:56,017 --> 00:02:00,057 Speaker 1: and decades and have failed up into these positions that 33 00:02:00,097 --> 00:02:04,017 Speaker 1: they are so obviously not ready for Pasin point, Joe 34 00:02:04,017 --> 00:02:07,057 Speaker 1: Biden's been in DC longer than I've been a live 35 00:02:07,137 --> 00:02:12,137 Speaker 1: folks here, he is messing things up, And these people 36 00:02:12,137 --> 00:02:14,817 Speaker 1: will lie to you over and over again and tell 37 00:02:14,897 --> 00:02:19,457 Speaker 1: you that it is someone else's fault. These people are 38 00:02:19,497 --> 00:02:24,657 Speaker 1: passing the buck no pun intended, every single day. If 39 00:02:24,697 --> 00:02:27,537 Speaker 1: your groceries are more expensive, it's the fault of those 40 00:02:27,657 --> 00:02:31,057 Speaker 1: evil meat companies. Yeah, we're looking at you, Hormel. That's 41 00:02:31,057 --> 00:02:34,217 Speaker 1: why it's your fault. Spam is more expensive, as spam 42 00:02:34,337 --> 00:02:37,457 Speaker 1: is even meat. If your gas is more expensive. It's 43 00:02:37,497 --> 00:02:42,017 Speaker 1: because of you guessed it, Vladimir Putin. He is the 44 00:02:42,217 --> 00:02:46,897 Speaker 1: Left's favorite super villain. He is the villain. He is 45 00:02:46,937 --> 00:02:50,737 Speaker 1: the person that they want you to believe is making 46 00:02:50,777 --> 00:02:55,457 Speaker 1: your gas prices this high. Listen to Biden's liar in chief, 47 00:02:55,977 --> 00:02:59,297 Speaker 1: White House Press Secretary Karin John Pierre, as she shuffles 48 00:02:59,337 --> 00:03:01,977 Speaker 1: through her binder of lies to give a camera response 49 00:03:02,017 --> 00:03:06,377 Speaker 1: when asked about these gas prices. Final question on gas prices. 50 00:03:06,497 --> 00:03:09,937 Speaker 1: Americans are now spending five thousand dollars a year on gasolina, 51 00:03:10,177 --> 00:03:13,177 Speaker 1: almost double what they did a year ago. Where are 52 00:03:13,177 --> 00:03:15,377 Speaker 1: people supposed to go to get all that extra cash, 53 00:03:15,897 --> 00:03:18,657 Speaker 1: to get the extra cash to pay for gas? Yeah? Well, 54 00:03:18,697 --> 00:03:20,457 Speaker 1: I mean one of the things that we've been very 55 00:03:20,497 --> 00:03:23,377 Speaker 1: clear about is to do everything in our power to 56 00:03:23,497 --> 00:03:27,177 Speaker 1: make sure that we lower costs. You know, it is 57 00:03:27,217 --> 00:03:30,457 Speaker 1: important we see it. The President understands what the American 58 00:03:30,497 --> 00:03:34,737 Speaker 1: people is going through, and that's why we're doing everything 59 00:03:34,777 --> 00:03:38,057 Speaker 1: that we can. We've made multiple announcements in the past 60 00:03:38,577 --> 00:03:41,177 Speaker 1: several several months of what we're doing, whether it's the 61 00:03:41,177 --> 00:03:45,777 Speaker 1: Strategic Petroleum Reserve, whether it's the Ethanol fifteen to make 62 00:03:45,777 --> 00:03:51,217 Speaker 1: sure that the American people are not feeling Putin's price hike. 63 00:03:51,377 --> 00:03:53,697 Speaker 1: This is where this is coming from. Sixty to seventy 64 00:03:53,697 --> 00:03:56,497 Speaker 1: percent of the current price hike that we have seen 65 00:03:56,577 --> 00:04:01,257 Speaker 1: has come from Pune's aggression against Ukraine. Yes, it's Putin's 66 00:04:01,297 --> 00:04:05,217 Speaker 1: price hike. Punine's aggression against Ukraine. You know, don't mind 67 00:04:05,657 --> 00:04:08,617 Speaker 1: your lie in eyes that will read that. According to 68 00:04:08,697 --> 00:04:12,257 Speaker 1: Triple A data, gas has doubled in price since Biden 69 00:04:12,297 --> 00:04:15,577 Speaker 1: took office in January twenty twenty one. While the fifty 70 00:04:15,577 --> 00:04:18,457 Speaker 1: billion dollars war in Ukraine, that war that is still 71 00:04:18,537 --> 00:04:22,457 Speaker 1: going on. By the way, that the DC and the Establishment, 72 00:04:22,977 --> 00:04:25,457 Speaker 1: all of these people have basically printed out all of 73 00:04:25,457 --> 00:04:28,257 Speaker 1: this money to send over there has only been going 74 00:04:28,377 --> 00:04:31,857 Speaker 1: on for four months, by the way, DC crooks, how 75 00:04:31,937 --> 00:04:34,897 Speaker 1: is that going Oh, and don't even think about mentioning 76 00:04:34,937 --> 00:04:37,977 Speaker 1: the fact that one of the first things that Joe 77 00:04:37,977 --> 00:04:41,377 Speaker 1: Biden did when he took office was he killed the 78 00:04:41,497 --> 00:04:47,697 Speaker 1: Keystone pipeline. These policies matter, folks, and these policies are 79 00:04:47,777 --> 00:04:51,977 Speaker 1: what are making your gas in mind that much more expensive. 80 00:04:52,657 --> 00:04:55,577 Speaker 1: Grin Jehan Pierre is so bad it almost makes you 81 00:04:55,657 --> 00:04:58,377 Speaker 1: long for the days of Jensaki, who looked at least 82 00:04:58,417 --> 00:05:00,457 Speaker 1: lied to us without having to check her notes every 83 00:05:00,457 --> 00:05:03,297 Speaker 1: fifteen seconds. It's almost enough to make me want to 84 00:05:03,297 --> 00:05:08,057 Speaker 1: watch her upcoming MSNBC show, just playing nobody's gonna watch 85 00:05:08,097 --> 00:05:11,137 Speaker 1: that show. Taxpaer dollars paid for the Jensaki Show for 86 00:05:11,137 --> 00:05:13,977 Speaker 1: the past year of our lives, and only the brain 87 00:05:14,057 --> 00:05:18,657 Speaker 1: dead executives at MSNBC wanted that one renewed. And of 88 00:05:18,657 --> 00:05:21,257 Speaker 1: course that brings me to the media. Yes, they are 89 00:05:21,297 --> 00:05:24,777 Speaker 1: to blame. And look, I know that it's low hanging fruit. 90 00:05:24,897 --> 00:05:28,977 Speaker 1: As a conservative commentator, political figure, whatevery want to call me, 91 00:05:29,337 --> 00:05:31,897 Speaker 1: I know that blaming the media is low hanging fruit. 92 00:05:31,977 --> 00:05:34,977 Speaker 1: I know that everybody does it. But you have to 93 00:05:35,057 --> 00:05:38,257 Speaker 1: understand we do this for a reason, and the reason 94 00:05:38,377 --> 00:05:41,457 Speaker 1: we do this is because these people are corrupt. These 95 00:05:41,457 --> 00:05:46,337 Speaker 1: people are basically the propaganda communications arm of the DNC 96 00:05:47,657 --> 00:05:49,897 Speaker 1: and onto the media. Like I said, they are to 97 00:05:49,977 --> 00:05:53,377 Speaker 1: blame because when Democrats are in charge in this country, 98 00:05:53,657 --> 00:05:56,977 Speaker 1: it is all propaganda, all the time from these people. 99 00:05:57,857 --> 00:06:01,297 Speaker 1: You're not going to get any sort of real, straight 100 00:06:01,337 --> 00:06:05,817 Speaker 1: down the line analysis from your MSNBC's or your CNN's 101 00:06:05,937 --> 00:06:09,377 Speaker 1: or anywhere else in the world because their jobs and 102 00:06:09,457 --> 00:06:13,217 Speaker 1: the way they see this is to protect democrats in 103 00:06:13,297 --> 00:06:17,257 Speaker 1: the Democrat agenda. First, that comes before facts, That comes 104 00:06:17,257 --> 00:06:21,177 Speaker 1: before truth, That comes before reporting what you were seeing 105 00:06:21,457 --> 00:06:24,537 Speaker 1: with your own two Wise and trust me, folks. I 106 00:06:24,577 --> 00:06:28,657 Speaker 1: went to Columbia University for journalism school. I worked that, 107 00:06:29,257 --> 00:06:32,457 Speaker 1: I have worked at NBC News and Yeah Who News 108 00:06:32,457 --> 00:06:36,057 Speaker 1: in all of these places. I know how the propaganda 109 00:06:36,097 --> 00:06:39,897 Speaker 1: works from behind the scenes. But you gotta say that 110 00:06:39,977 --> 00:06:42,857 Speaker 1: the propaganda that you're seeing right now, this is vastly 111 00:06:42,937 --> 00:06:46,537 Speaker 1: different from when Obama was president. And the biggest difference 112 00:06:46,617 --> 00:06:49,977 Speaker 1: is this, it is equally as awful. In fact, this 113 00:06:50,057 --> 00:06:54,377 Speaker 1: Biden administration is probably even worse than the Obama administration. 114 00:06:54,857 --> 00:06:57,057 Speaker 1: But when Obama's president, no matter what you think of 115 00:06:57,097 --> 00:07:00,457 Speaker 1: the policies, this was a young, good looking dude with 116 00:07:00,457 --> 00:07:03,497 Speaker 1: a nice looking family, right, So the media and the 117 00:07:03,657 --> 00:07:08,697 Speaker 1: entertainment establishment was able to sell this misery with somebody 118 00:07:08,977 --> 00:07:12,097 Speaker 1: that was charismatic enough to sell it. Now, compare that 119 00:07:12,537 --> 00:07:16,737 Speaker 1: to this, so yes and what's a plod because they 120 00:07:16,817 --> 00:07:23,417 Speaker 1: gets somewhere they need to go, oh cackling, cammy. The 121 00:07:23,617 --> 00:07:27,377 Speaker 1: media propaganda wanted you to think Kamala Harris was a 122 00:07:27,497 --> 00:07:31,177 Speaker 1: female Obama. They wanted you to think she was gonna 123 00:07:31,217 --> 00:07:34,577 Speaker 1: come save the day for Black America and white America, 124 00:07:34,657 --> 00:07:38,177 Speaker 1: and he's gonna bring us all together. Instead we got 125 00:07:38,217 --> 00:07:42,457 Speaker 1: this cackling, cringe lightweight who somehow treated like she's above 126 00:07:42,537 --> 00:07:46,697 Speaker 1: any criticism because she's black and female. Now, this media 127 00:07:46,697 --> 00:07:49,977 Speaker 1: propaganda is also used to spread you the lie that 128 00:07:50,137 --> 00:07:53,377 Speaker 1: inflation that you were saying with just poof in the 129 00:07:53,417 --> 00:07:57,937 Speaker 1: thin air. I believe it's transitory, but I don't mean 130 00:07:57,977 --> 00:08:02,097 Speaker 1: to suggest that these pressures will disappear in the next 131 00:08:02,177 --> 00:08:06,097 Speaker 1: month or two. This is an unprecedented shock to the 132 00:08:06,137 --> 00:08:10,417 Speaker 1: global economy. It's led to a huge shift into manned 133 00:08:10,497 --> 00:08:16,097 Speaker 1: away from surfaces and toward goods. These people are so old, 134 00:08:16,817 --> 00:08:19,817 Speaker 1: These people have been doing this for so long. These 135 00:08:19,857 --> 00:08:22,657 Speaker 1: people are so deep in the bubble that they have 136 00:08:22,857 --> 00:08:27,017 Speaker 1: no idea which way is up. These people do not care. 137 00:08:27,897 --> 00:08:31,457 Speaker 1: And the same media propaganda that has given you somebody 138 00:08:31,497 --> 00:08:35,257 Speaker 1: like Janet Yellen, who has been wrong at every major 139 00:08:35,377 --> 00:08:38,057 Speaker 1: turn and is held up as some sort of authority 140 00:08:38,097 --> 00:08:40,977 Speaker 1: on what's going on, these people want you to just 141 00:08:41,097 --> 00:08:43,497 Speaker 1: shut up. If you have a problem with the inflation 142 00:08:43,577 --> 00:08:46,297 Speaker 1: that they told you is going to be transitory. Just 143 00:08:46,497 --> 00:08:50,137 Speaker 1: listen to this Washington Post reporter on of course MSNBC 144 00:08:50,617 --> 00:08:53,457 Speaker 1: telling you to shut up about inflation because hey, you 145 00:08:53,577 --> 00:08:56,137 Speaker 1: still got a job and food to eat. There's a 146 00:08:56,177 --> 00:09:00,057 Speaker 1: great deal of Americans where it is uncomfortable that they're 147 00:09:00,057 --> 00:09:02,657 Speaker 1: spending more, but they are not going to go under. 148 00:09:03,057 --> 00:09:06,697 Speaker 1: You know, you got to stop complaining when there's so 149 00:09:06,737 --> 00:09:10,417 Speaker 1: many people who literally the inflation rate means they may 150 00:09:10,457 --> 00:09:13,497 Speaker 1: only have two meals instead of three. There are Americans 151 00:09:13,577 --> 00:09:16,657 Speaker 1: who did extremely well in the last two years in 152 00:09:16,697 --> 00:09:19,937 Speaker 1: the market. You still have your job, and yeah, it's 153 00:09:20,017 --> 00:09:22,177 Speaker 1: costing you more for guests, but guess what, You're still 154 00:09:22,217 --> 00:09:24,777 Speaker 1: gonna take that holiday, that Fourth of July vacation. You 155 00:09:24,777 --> 00:09:27,017 Speaker 1: could still eat out. So I want to need you 156 00:09:27,057 --> 00:09:30,217 Speaker 1: to calm down and back off because it feeds into 157 00:09:30,297 --> 00:09:33,257 Speaker 1: this fear, and then this fear feeds into people making 158 00:09:33,297 --> 00:09:37,017 Speaker 1: decisions that creates the very thing that they're fearful up. 159 00:09:37,897 --> 00:09:41,537 Speaker 1: These people are ridiculous, These people are liars. These people 160 00:09:41,657 --> 00:09:45,777 Speaker 1: have such a disdain for anybody who's managed to build 161 00:09:45,817 --> 00:09:49,137 Speaker 1: and do something for themselves. It's completely crazy. So you 162 00:09:49,177 --> 00:09:52,217 Speaker 1: should just stop complaining about it. But honestly, the buck 163 00:09:52,257 --> 00:09:55,217 Speaker 1: stops with Biden, who's running this country as easily as 164 00:09:55,257 --> 00:10:08,417 Speaker 1: he rides a bike. But seriously, I honestly believe people 165 00:10:08,457 --> 00:10:11,217 Speaker 1: who voted for Biden wanted a UNI or someone who 166 00:10:11,217 --> 00:10:15,177 Speaker 1: would turn the temperature in this country down. Instead, he 167 00:10:15,217 --> 00:10:17,217 Speaker 1: just kind of yells at us all the time, like 168 00:10:17,257 --> 00:10:20,937 Speaker 1: the angry old man that he is. I don't want 169 00:10:20,937 --> 00:10:25,137 Speaker 1: to hear anymore of these lies about reckless spending. We're 170 00:10:25,257 --> 00:10:31,297 Speaker 1: changing people's lives. Biden and his flax lie and lie 171 00:10:31,457 --> 00:10:35,577 Speaker 1: and lie. But America is hurting. You feel it. I 172 00:10:35,657 --> 00:10:41,617 Speaker 1: feel it. Everyone feels it. And that's the truth. All right. 173 00:10:41,777 --> 00:10:44,937 Speaker 1: Democrat controlled cities around the country are poised to surpass 174 00:10:45,017 --> 00:10:48,537 Speaker 1: twenty twenty ones murder and violent crime rates. We'll have 175 00:10:48,657 --> 00:10:52,617 Speaker 1: more on that with KTT Seattle radio host Jason Rantz 176 00:10:52,937 --> 00:10:56,857 Speaker 1: when we come back. Let's talk about protecting your home 177 00:10:56,857 --> 00:10:58,737 Speaker 1: for a minute. You know that I'm skeptical by nature, 178 00:10:58,777 --> 00:11:00,657 Speaker 1: So when I first heard about home tattle theft and 179 00:11:00,697 --> 00:11:02,817 Speaker 1: the idea that thieves can literally steal your home, I 180 00:11:02,857 --> 00:11:05,817 Speaker 1: was like, really, and some cyber criminal really forged my 181 00:11:05,897 --> 00:11:07,697 Speaker 1: name off the tattle of my home and takeover as 182 00:11:07,697 --> 00:11:10,417 Speaker 1: the new owner. Turns out, yeah, he can as rare 183 00:11:10,457 --> 00:11:12,777 Speaker 1: as you'd think. According to the FBI, This crime is 184 00:11:12,777 --> 00:11:15,177 Speaker 1: growing faster than credit card fraud, and you're not covered 185 00:11:15,177 --> 00:11:18,657 Speaker 1: by homeowners insurance or comment at any theft programs. Home 186 00:11:18,697 --> 00:11:21,937 Speaker 1: tetlelock earned my trust. Home teedlelock puts a virtual barrier 187 00:11:21,977 --> 00:11:25,137 Speaker 1: around your home's title.

America may be heading for a summer 196 00:11:50,777 --> 00:11:53,617 Speaker 1: of violence, as a number of major cities across the 197 00:11:53,657 --> 00:11:57,657 Speaker 1: country are on track to surpass last year's rates of 198 00:11:57,777 --> 00:12:01,817 Speaker 1: violent crime and homicide. According to a recent study from Foxnews, 199 00:12:01,977 --> 00:12:07,097 Speaker 1: violent crime is up in the cities of Atlanta, Baltimore, Philadelphia, 200 00:12:07,217 --> 00:12:11,377 Speaker 1: Los Angeles, Washington, DC, and in New York City, where 201 00:12:11,377 --> 00:12:15,777 Speaker 1: it's up a staggering twenty five point eight percent. Wow. 202 00:12:16,457 --> 00:12:19,377 Speaker 1: The city of Seattle, Washington, is also seeing a continued 203 00:12:19,457 --> 00:12:22,617 Speaker 1: rising crime, a statistic made possible by the loss of 204 00:12:22,657 --> 00:12:25,977 Speaker 1: about a quarter of its entire police department over the 205 00:12:26,017 --> 00:12:28,417 Speaker 1: last two years. Let me bring in someone who knows 206 00:12:28,457 --> 00:12:31,337 Speaker 1: a thing or two about this topic. Conservative talk show 207 00:12:31,377 --> 00:12:38,777 Speaker 1: host on KTT in Seattle, Jason Rants, all right, no, absolutely, 208 00:12:38,817 --> 00:12:43,297 Speaker 1: thanks for joining us. Look, Jason, Seattle looks a certain 209 00:12:43,337 --> 00:12:45,497 Speaker 1: way to those of us who kind of just see 210 00:12:45,577 --> 00:12:47,777 Speaker 1: the videos and stuff on Twitter, and we see kind 211 00:12:47,817 --> 00:12:50,537 Speaker 1: of like all the insanity. But you know you live there. 212 00:12:50,577 --> 00:12:53,897 Speaker 1: That's how you know. You've built such a national profile here, 213 00:12:54,097 --> 00:12:57,417 Speaker 1: and so you would know how is Seattle coping with 214 00:12:57,457 --> 00:13:01,817 Speaker 1: this police shortage. Well, so there's two separate issues. Number One, 215 00:13:02,217 --> 00:13:05,497 Speaker 1: the city has gotten significantly cleaner than it has been 216 00:13:05,537 --> 00:13:08,697 Speaker 1: in the past due to a mayor starting to take 217 00:13:08,737 --> 00:13:12,377 Speaker 1: seriously this crisis. On the other hand, at the same 218 00:13:12,417 --> 00:13:16,417 Speaker 1: exact time we have this increase in violence, we have 219 00:13:16,457 --> 00:13:19,017 Speaker 1: an increase in non violent crime as well, and it's 220 00:13:19,097 --> 00:13:22,257 Speaker 1: led in large part to permissive policies, some on the 221 00:13:22,297 --> 00:13:24,817 Speaker 1: city level, some at the state level that basically say 222 00:13:24,817 --> 00:13:26,857 Speaker 1: we're not going to put bad guys where they belong, 223 00:13:26,977 --> 00:13:30,457 Speaker 1: which is in jail, and we have so few cops. 224 00:13:30,497 --> 00:13:33,177 Speaker 1: We have just a little over eight hundred police officers. Now, 225 00:13:33,337 --> 00:13:36,897 Speaker 1: two years ago that number should have been between fifteen 226 00:13:36,977 --> 00:13:40,377 Speaker 1: hundred and sixteen hundred. They've now lowered their goal to 227 00:13:40,417 --> 00:13:43,937 Speaker 1: about fourteen hundred, but we're still very long ways away 228 00:13:43,937 --> 00:13:46,937 Speaker 1: from there, and we're very clearly not keeping up with 229 00:13:47,217 --> 00:13:50,217 Speaker 1: the need because frankly, not only do we have a 230 00:13:50,257 --> 00:13:53,057 Speaker 1: retention problem, but we have a recruitment problem, and ither 231 00:13:53,097 --> 00:13:56,097 Speaker 1: thing is really being done that's working. Yeah, So I 232 00:13:56,137 --> 00:13:58,977 Speaker 1: have a question. So these shortages that we're talking about 233 00:13:59,057 --> 00:14:01,337 Speaker 1: right now now, are these things that have happened over 234 00:14:01,377 --> 00:14:03,897 Speaker 1: the past couple of years. Are these things that have 235 00:14:03,897 --> 00:14:06,457 Speaker 1: happened CENTERLA over the past decade. And what I'm trying 236 00:14:06,457 --> 00:14:08,577 Speaker 1: to ask is how much of this stuff is directly 237 00:14:08,577 --> 00:14:11,857 Speaker 1: related to all of the defund the police and sort 238 00:14:11,897 --> 00:14:14,417 Speaker 1: of anti cop rhetoric we've been hearing from the left 239 00:14:14,457 --> 00:14:16,857 Speaker 1: over the past couple of years. Yeah, over the course 240 00:14:16,857 --> 00:14:19,577 Speaker 1: of the last two years, it's definitely accelerated. But this 241 00:14:19,737 --> 00:14:23,097 Speaker 1: was a problem going into the defund movement, where they 242 00:14:23,097 --> 00:14:26,017 Speaker 1: were still short staff, but nowhere near where they are now. 243 00:14:26,017 --> 00:14:29,217 Speaker 1: We've lost somewhere around four hundred and fifty officers just 244 00:14:29,297 --> 00:14:32,657 Speaker 1: in the last two years, and that really started to surge, 245 00:14:32,697 --> 00:14:36,697 Speaker 1: this exodus around the time of the BLM movement and 246 00:14:36,777 --> 00:14:39,497 Speaker 1: all of the riots that we were pretending are mostly peaceful. 247 00:14:39,817 --> 00:14:42,177 Speaker 1: And then beyond that, you have, of course, the politicians 248 00:14:42,177 --> 00:14:45,417 Speaker 1: who constantly are upping the rhetoric, almost as if it's 249 00:14:45,457 --> 00:14:48,657 Speaker 1: a competition to see who can be the most anti cop. 250 00:14:48,977 --> 00:14:52,177 Speaker 1: And when you're constantly calling cops racist, and then you 251 00:14:52,217 --> 00:14:56,057 Speaker 1: have the national conversation and rhetoric around police officers, it's 252 00:14:56,097 --> 00:14:58,537 Speaker 1: hard for a lot of folks to say, yeah, I 253 00:14:58,577 --> 00:15:01,697 Speaker 1: want to get into this as a job or stay 254 00:15:01,817 --> 00:15:03,937 Speaker 1: in this as a job. And so we saw so 255 00:15:03,977 --> 00:15:06,657 Speaker 1: many people just deciding to either leave some of the 256 00:15:06,697 --> 00:15:09,417 Speaker 1: big cities like Seattle, New York, LA. All of these 257 00:15:09,417 --> 00:15:12,337 Speaker 1: cities have been having this problem, but others are just saying, yeah, 258 00:15:12,377 --> 00:15:14,617 Speaker 1: I just don't want to do this anymore. It's not 259 00:15:14,657 --> 00:15:18,057 Speaker 1: worth it all right. So, Washington State is one of 260 00:15:18,097 --> 00:15:22,017 Speaker 1: several jurisdictions that has banned police from chasing criminals, which 261 00:15:22,057 --> 00:15:25,497 Speaker 1: is crazy. Um. In a recently recorded nine one one call, 262 00:15:25,617 --> 00:15:28,777 Speaker 1: a man actually calls the police on the police for 263 00:15:28,937 --> 00:15:34,257 Speaker 1: chasing them. Take a listen, and my wifefended and the 264 00:15:34,617 --> 00:15:37,697 Speaker 1: illegal Purswe the capital tend that people they're not plased 265 00:15:37,737 --> 00:15:40,097 Speaker 1: to be able to change illegal they can have not 266 00:15:40,297 --> 00:15:47,537 Speaker 1: changed if there's an illegal. You know, I don't mean 267 00:15:47,577 --> 00:15:51,097 Speaker 1: to laugh, but it's all so crazy when you think 268 00:15:51,137 --> 00:15:53,617 Speaker 1: about it. So I want to ask you how are 269 00:15:54,057 --> 00:15:57,417 Speaker 1: cops on the streets in Seattle, UM dealing with these 270 00:15:57,497 --> 00:16:01,617 Speaker 1: kind of restrictions. I mean, they're upset that they're saying, 271 00:16:01,657 --> 00:16:03,817 Speaker 1: you are not allowing us to do our jobs. In 272 00:16:03,857 --> 00:16:05,657 Speaker 1: the case of that audio that you just played, because 273 00:16:05,657 --> 00:16:07,417 Speaker 1: I broke that story. When I heard that audio for 274 00:16:07,417 --> 00:16:08,937 Speaker 1: the first time, I was like, oh my gosh, it's 275 00:16:08,977 --> 00:16:12,377 Speaker 1: really in capital encapsulates what this problem is. Where you 276 00:16:12,897 --> 00:16:16,457 Speaker 1: make these different changes to laws. They're not happening in 277 00:16:16,497 --> 00:16:19,057 Speaker 1: a bubble. The criminals actually know that. And so what 278 00:16:19,137 --> 00:16:22,377 Speaker 1: cops are saying now is that they're seeing the behaviors 279 00:16:22,377 --> 00:16:26,457 Speaker 1: of criminals starting to change, which means they can't effectively 280 00:16:26,497 --> 00:16:29,697 Speaker 1: do their jobs and or it's more dangerous for them 281 00:16:29,697 --> 00:16:31,977 Speaker 1: to do their jobs. So in the case of that audio, 282 00:16:32,057 --> 00:16:36,257 Speaker 1: this suspect's name is Isaac Sissel. He was accused of 283 00:16:36,337 --> 00:16:40,657 Speaker 1: holding his girlfriend hostage in that car with a weapon. Thus, 284 00:16:40,777 --> 00:16:42,977 Speaker 1: under the law, it's a little bit of a gray area. 285 00:16:43,057 --> 00:16:46,257 Speaker 1: But the police said, actually, we can in fact chase 286 00:16:46,337 --> 00:16:49,617 Speaker 1: you in this case because it's the probable cause for 287 00:16:49,737 --> 00:16:52,777 Speaker 1: a violent crime, and there's some nuances with Washington state 288 00:16:52,817 --> 00:16:55,497 Speaker 1: laws it relates to domestic violence. So they decided to 289 00:16:55,537 --> 00:16:58,417 Speaker 1: go ahead and chase anyway. They ended up making the 290 00:16:58,497 --> 00:17:00,497 Speaker 1: arrest and he's going to be charged it looks like 291 00:17:01,017 --> 00:17:02,937 Speaker 1: officially and it's going to go through the process. But 292 00:17:03,217 --> 00:17:05,897 Speaker 1: you know, there are criminals who are very clearly taking 293 00:17:05,897 --> 00:17:08,177 Speaker 1: advantage of the law as is written. That's why we're 294 00:17:08,217 --> 00:17:12,137 Speaker 1: seeing a ten thousand percent increase in catalytic converter theps 295 00:17:12,137 --> 00:17:14,657 Speaker 1: in the state of Washington since twenty nineteen. If you 296 00:17:14,657 --> 00:17:17,657 Speaker 1: can commit a crime very quickly, get in your car 297 00:17:17,777 --> 00:17:19,657 Speaker 1: and just drive away, you don't even have to speed away. 298 00:17:19,897 --> 00:17:22,457 Speaker 1: Police cannot chase you. The only way that they can 299 00:17:22,537 --> 00:17:26,657 Speaker 1: chase you is if there is amongst a few examples 300 00:17:26,697 --> 00:17:29,257 Speaker 1: of probable cause for a violent crime. So I'm gonna 301 00:17:29,257 --> 00:17:31,457 Speaker 1: have to this very high bar. So I'm going to 302 00:17:31,537 --> 00:17:33,697 Speaker 1: ask you this a quick one and then a little 303 00:17:33,737 --> 00:17:36,617 Speaker 1: bit along one quickly. This defund the police rhetoric and 304 00:17:36,657 --> 00:17:38,377 Speaker 1: all that stuff. Now we know that this is coming 305 00:17:38,417 --> 00:17:40,817 Speaker 1: from the clowns on the national stage, right because it 306 00:17:40,817 --> 00:17:43,217 Speaker 1: helps them get Twitter followers and raise money and all 307 00:17:43,257 --> 00:17:45,337 Speaker 1: that other stuff. How much of this stuff is coming 308 00:17:45,377 --> 00:17:50,097 Speaker 1: from the local politicians on the ground. Well, actually, Seattle 309 00:17:50,177 --> 00:17:52,617 Speaker 1: is one of those exceptions to what you just said. 310 00:17:52,977 --> 00:17:55,217 Speaker 1: There are a lot of folks on the ground, activists 311 00:17:55,217 --> 00:17:57,977 Speaker 1: and and in the Seattle City Council who were pushing 312 00:17:58,137 --> 00:18:00,297 Speaker 1: very hard to defund the police, and they created a 313 00:18:00,297 --> 00:18:02,457 Speaker 1: whole bunch of problems along the way, as we've seen 314 00:18:02,457 --> 00:18:04,457 Speaker 1: not just here but across the country. When you defund 315 00:18:04,457 --> 00:18:07,177 Speaker 1: the police, Hey, gus, what crime surges? So we actually 316 00:18:07,297 --> 00:18:09,657 Speaker 1: did have It's still i think a minority voice as 317 00:18:09,657 --> 00:18:13,897 Speaker 1: far as the general population, but they were pushing and 318 00:18:13,937 --> 00:18:18,297 Speaker 1: they saw some significant wins as far as their agenda goes. Interesting, 319 00:18:18,497 --> 00:18:22,017 Speaker 1: all right, So recently San Francisco, DA, Tessa Boudine was 320 00:18:22,057 --> 00:18:26,817 Speaker 1: recalled in La County, DA. George Gascon is facing a 321 00:18:26,897 --> 00:18:30,097 Speaker 1: similar effort. Do you think the pendulum is swinging back 322 00:18:30,137 --> 00:18:32,937 Speaker 1: toward a tougher stance on crime in the cities, Like, 323 00:18:33,017 --> 00:18:35,497 Speaker 1: do you think that the people that live in these 324 00:18:35,497 --> 00:18:38,577 Speaker 1: cities are just getting tired of the rhetoric because it's 325 00:18:38,617 --> 00:18:42,137 Speaker 1: making their streets so much more dangerous. Yeah, the question 326 00:18:42,217 --> 00:18:45,377 Speaker 1: is whether or not you're seeing this regional momentum, which 327 00:18:45,497 --> 00:18:49,297 Speaker 1: very clearly is happening. I mean San Francisco, that's progressives. 328 00:18:49,297 --> 00:18:50,937 Speaker 1: I know that Chessa Boudin wanted to pretend that it 329 00:18:50,977 --> 00:18:54,057 Speaker 1: was all this conservatives who are doing Conservatives clearly were 330 00:18:54,057 --> 00:18:57,057 Speaker 1: not responsible for what happened with the recall because there 331 00:18:57,097 --> 00:19:00,977 Speaker 1: are very few in San Francisco. So from a regional 332 00:19:00,977 --> 00:19:03,577 Speaker 1: perspective or a local perspective, you're seeing it, especially in 333 00:19:03,617 --> 00:19:08,257 Speaker 1: San Francisco. The question is will that extend nationwide? And 334 00:19:08,297 --> 00:19:10,377 Speaker 1: I don't know the answer to that yet, because there 335 00:19:10,377 --> 00:19:12,417 Speaker 1: are two issues that you have to compete with. Number One, 336 00:19:12,497 --> 00:19:17,937 Speaker 1: the George Gascon recall is significant. This has been the 337 00:19:18,097 --> 00:19:21,137 Speaker 1: general campaign that the national media has paid the most 338 00:19:21,137 --> 00:19:23,337 Speaker 1: attention to. Yeah, they talked about Jessibudine, but it was 339 00:19:23,377 --> 00:19:25,497 Speaker 1: really always about George Gascon. He's got a much bigger 340 00:19:25,577 --> 00:19:30,217 Speaker 1: name recognition. If that fails, I fear that the momentum, 341 00:19:30,257 --> 00:19:33,337 Speaker 1: at least from the media framing of it, is going 342 00:19:33,377 --> 00:19:36,377 Speaker 1: to shift towards the negative. Because we're putting so much 343 00:19:36,417 --> 00:19:41,577 Speaker 1: pressure on voters delivering in Los Angeles County because George 344 00:19:41,577 --> 00:19:44,297 Speaker 1: Gascon and what he stands for. Beyond that, let's say 345 00:19:44,337 --> 00:19:46,817 Speaker 1: the momentum continues to stay in this direction, which I 346 00:19:46,857 --> 00:19:50,377 Speaker 1: certainly hope it does. Just because you recall George Gascon 347 00:19:50,537 --> 00:19:53,137 Speaker 1: doesn't mean you got rid of some of the judges 348 00:19:53,377 --> 00:19:56,417 Speaker 1: who have gone very easy on criminals. Just because you 349 00:19:56,537 --> 00:19:59,657 Speaker 1: win a couple of elections on a council level doesn't 350 00:19:59,697 --> 00:20:02,537 Speaker 1: mean that you've shifted all of the power dynamics to 351 00:20:02,617 --> 00:20:04,737 Speaker 1: the side that doesn't want to be found or doesn't 352 00:20:04,737 --> 00:20:06,977 Speaker 1: want to go light on crime. So we're not going 353 00:20:07,057 --> 00:20:11,137 Speaker 1: to see a shift take place overnight, at least publicly 354 00:20:11,217 --> 00:20:13,977 Speaker 1: that the voters might not experience that. And I just 355 00:20:14,377 --> 00:20:19,097 Speaker 1: I caution folks to understand it takes time. You Democrats 356 00:20:19,137 --> 00:20:22,777 Speaker 1: talk about institutionalizing things, well, they've institutionalized all these laws 357 00:20:23,057 --> 00:20:26,057 Speaker 1: and policies and that's not easy to undo. So we 358 00:20:26,137 --> 00:20:27,737 Speaker 1: just got to make sure that we're sticking with the 359 00:20:27,777 --> 00:20:31,857 Speaker 1: momentum even after some wins, because the change doesn't happen overnight. 360 00:20:32,497 --> 00:20:36,537 Speaker 1: All right. Always always a pleasure, always very informative. Jason 361 00:20:36,657 --> 00:20:39,817 Speaker 1: Rands from Seattle, thank you very much for joining us. 362 00:20:40,377 --> 00:20:43,977 Speaker 1: Thank you. I appreciate it all right.

Yes, it is Pride month now, the 388 00:22:03,217 --> 00:22:08,297 Speaker 1: annual time that the LGBTQI AK plus plus Yes that's 389 00:22:08,297 --> 00:22:12,137 Speaker 1: a real acronym sort of spreads their joy all over 390 00:22:12,217 --> 00:22:14,217 Speaker 1: the world. But look over the past several years it 391 00:22:14,297 --> 00:22:18,337 Speaker 1: has become especially controversial. Editor has moved away from a 392 00:22:18,377 --> 00:22:23,577 Speaker 1: message of love and acceptance to now sexualizing young kids. 393 00:22:24,177 --> 00:22:26,857 Speaker 1: In the past few weeks, outrage has poured out from 394 00:22:26,897 --> 00:22:30,577 Speaker 1: Pride events held across the country and Dallas, an event 395 00:22:30,657 --> 00:22:34,857 Speaker 1: called Dragged the Kids to Pride had young children handing 396 00:22:34,897 --> 00:22:39,657 Speaker 1: money to twerking drag queens with bright neon lights, saying quote, 397 00:22:39,977 --> 00:22:44,457 Speaker 1: it's not going to lick itself. And in San Francisco, 398 00:22:44,537 --> 00:22:46,897 Speaker 1: a middle school held a drag show with a crowd 399 00:22:46,937 --> 00:22:51,057 Speaker 1: of students cheering on for the performer. So as sexualizing 400 00:22:51,137 --> 00:22:55,657 Speaker 1: young kids the right response and message Pride months should 401 00:22:55,657 --> 00:22:59,177 Speaker 1: be pushing. Well, let's ask the president of the log 402 00:22:59,257 --> 00:23:06,777 Speaker 1: Cabin Republicans, America's oldest LGBT organization for Republicans, Charles Moran. Charles, 403 00:23:06,777 --> 00:23:09,857 Speaker 1: thank you so much for joining, Thanks for having me on. 404 00:23:10,337 --> 00:23:14,017 Speaker 1: I think you forgot two and an S somewhere in there. 405 00:23:14,017 --> 00:23:16,937 Speaker 1: We're Alpha ne Americ. Now we're not just the letters. Yes, 406 00:23:17,017 --> 00:23:22,697 Speaker 1: it's the two S S plus Kia, two Spirited everything else. 407 00:23:22,777 --> 00:23:26,697 Speaker 1: So look, Charles, it seems like this has all gotten 408 00:23:26,737 --> 00:23:29,177 Speaker 1: a little crazy over the past couple of years. What 409 00:23:29,377 --> 00:23:32,737 Speaker 1: is your thoughts on the overall craziness of what we're saying? 410 00:23:32,977 --> 00:23:37,537 Speaker 1: And then this kid that drag show staying well, Rob. 411 00:23:37,577 --> 00:23:40,057 Speaker 1: I think it's really important that we're having this conversation 412 00:23:40,137 --> 00:23:42,177 Speaker 1: this month, and I think one of the things that 413 00:23:42,217 --> 00:23:46,617 Speaker 1: Americans are realizing is that this has gone from a 414 00:23:46,737 --> 00:23:52,497 Speaker 1: month of visibility to a month of woke corporate advertising 415 00:23:52,777 --> 00:23:56,257 Speaker 1: and just has gone way too far over the line. 416 00:23:57,217 --> 00:24:01,497 Speaker 1: It's I don't think that LGBT visibility has any problem 417 00:24:01,537 --> 00:24:05,777 Speaker 1: in society today in America. We definitely are having struggles 418 00:24:05,777 --> 00:24:07,777 Speaker 1: in other parts of the country and of excuse me, 419 00:24:07,817 --> 00:24:11,217 Speaker 1: the world where it's still illegal gay in sixty eight 420 00:24:11,257 --> 00:24:13,977 Speaker 1: countries and we're in some way, shape or form, eight 421 00:24:13,977 --> 00:24:16,137 Speaker 1: of them you can be executed for. And we're doing 422 00:24:16,177 --> 00:24:19,097 Speaker 1: work to bring attention to that. But here in America, 423 00:24:19,177 --> 00:24:21,777 Speaker 1: you can't walk down the street without a rainbow bat 424 00:24:21,857 --> 00:24:25,497 Speaker 1: lacking you in the face, and you know, having the 425 00:24:25,697 --> 00:24:32,017 Speaker 1: this woke corporate mentality that really isn't authentic. And I 426 00:24:32,057 --> 00:24:35,257 Speaker 1: think that Americans are waking up and seeing like we 427 00:24:35,337 --> 00:24:39,257 Speaker 1: have moved beyond this issue of victimhood. And that's one 428 00:24:39,257 --> 00:24:41,457 Speaker 1: of the things that you know, I think America and 429 00:24:41,617 --> 00:24:44,337 Speaker 1: Republican leadership over the last couple of years is you know, 430 00:24:44,377 --> 00:24:47,457 Speaker 1: we've moved beyond the era of victimhood. Liberals and the 431 00:24:47,537 --> 00:24:49,737 Speaker 1: left love to put people in their box whether or 432 00:24:49,777 --> 00:24:52,137 Speaker 1: not you're black, or you're brown, or you're gay, or 433 00:24:52,177 --> 00:24:56,657 Speaker 1: Asian or Latino or Jewish or whatever. If you're not 434 00:24:56,697 --> 00:24:59,857 Speaker 1: a victim, you're of no use to the Democrats. And 435 00:25:00,097 --> 00:25:02,497 Speaker 1: I think you're literally of no use to them. And 436 00:25:02,537 --> 00:25:04,537 Speaker 1: you said something very interesting that I want to make 437 00:25:04,577 --> 00:25:07,857 Speaker 1: a point it because you mentioned the places all over 438 00:25:07,897 --> 00:25:10,857 Speaker 1: the world where you can still be executed for being gay, right, 439 00:25:11,177 --> 00:25:13,617 Speaker 1: and so when you look at all of these corporations, 440 00:25:13,617 --> 00:25:16,217 Speaker 1: they sort of change their logos to the Pride month 441 00:25:16,257 --> 00:25:20,377 Speaker 1: flags on Twitter right here. But when you look at 442 00:25:20,417 --> 00:25:24,017 Speaker 1: the Middle East branch of all of these corporations, those 443 00:25:24,097 --> 00:25:31,137 Speaker 1: logos they write the same, right Yeah, Mercedes, Benz, BMW, Cisco, Oracle, 444 00:25:31,337 --> 00:25:36,137 Speaker 1: a lot of like these multinational corporations, pharma companies, whatever. Um. 445 00:25:36,297 --> 00:25:38,817 Speaker 1: It's funny how they'll and even you know, we saw 446 00:25:38,897 --> 00:25:41,457 Speaker 1: with the Disney mess, you know, with them coming out 447 00:25:41,537 --> 00:25:44,217 Speaker 1: and trashing round Santis and you know we stood up 448 00:25:44,297 --> 00:25:47,777 Speaker 1: very round Santis um. You know. But at the same time, 449 00:25:47,817 --> 00:25:50,937 Speaker 1: Disney was still taking their cruise ships to countries in 450 00:25:51,017 --> 00:25:55,057 Speaker 1: the in the Caribbean that we're that still um like 451 00:25:55,297 --> 00:26:00,537 Speaker 1: criminalized homosexuality. It's just so blatant that the hypocrisy is 452 00:26:00,617 --> 00:26:04,497 Speaker 1: just to line their pockets with those pink dollars or 453 00:26:05,537 --> 00:26:08,097 Speaker 1: stand up for it anymore. Of course, And it's so 454 00:26:08,097 --> 00:26:11,457 Speaker 1: funny that you bring up Disney, Okay, it so obviously 455 00:26:11,577 --> 00:26:15,057 Speaker 1: then don't say a gay slur against you know, Rhonda 456 00:26:15,137 --> 00:26:18,417 Speaker 1: Santis and the Parental Rights and Education Act that he 457 00:26:18,697 --> 00:26:20,777 Speaker 1: passed in Florida. Of course, that don't say gay thing 458 00:26:20,817 --> 00:26:22,977 Speaker 1: was a complete lie, right, and the left doesn't. The 459 00:26:23,017 --> 00:26:25,377 Speaker 1: thing about this is and I said this earlier today 460 00:26:25,737 --> 00:26:29,977 Speaker 1: in my opening sort of manifesto, the left lies and 461 00:26:30,097 --> 00:26:32,497 Speaker 1: lies and lies, then they take a date breath, and 462 00:26:32,537 --> 00:26:34,937 Speaker 1: then they lie some more. And it's very interesting that 463 00:26:35,017 --> 00:26:38,657 Speaker 1: you bring up Disney, because now you know, the Lightyear 464 00:26:38,697 --> 00:26:41,857 Speaker 1: movie that came out over the past weekend underperformed, some 465 00:26:41,937 --> 00:26:44,977 Speaker 1: would say it flopped. These people in Disney put a 466 00:26:45,097 --> 00:26:48,737 Speaker 1: lesbian kiss into that movie that nobody wanted, nobody asked for. 467 00:26:48,777 --> 00:26:50,817 Speaker 1: Apparently they put it in the deleted it, then put 468 00:26:50,857 --> 00:26:53,257 Speaker 1: it in again, then tried to, you know, have a 469 00:26:53,337 --> 00:26:56,817 Speaker 1: pr blitz about it. Apparently there's something about this that 470 00:26:56,977 --> 00:26:59,937 Speaker 1: is turning off parents, and I think it's the push 471 00:26:59,977 --> 00:27:02,577 Speaker 1: of all of this stuff on kids. And speaking of which, 472 00:27:02,697 --> 00:27:07,657 Speaker 1: so the Oklahoma Pride Alliance has a flyer and don't 473 00:27:07,657 --> 00:27:09,337 Speaker 1: put this up on the screen and it says this 474 00:27:10,177 --> 00:27:16,377 Speaker 1: calling all musicians, drag artists, dancers and talent ages thirteen 475 00:27:16,417 --> 00:27:21,577 Speaker 1: to twenty. Oklahoma Pride Alliance Youth is currently accepting applications 476 00:27:21,577 --> 00:27:27,217 Speaker 1: for performers. Don't miss your chance to perform at Pride Fest. Look, 477 00:27:27,737 --> 00:27:31,457 Speaker 1: I don't know when sort of indoctrinating kids and putting 478 00:27:31,457 --> 00:27:33,857 Speaker 1: all of this stuff in and bringing like child drag 479 00:27:33,897 --> 00:27:36,937 Speaker 1: beans and all that stuff. I don't know when that started, 480 00:27:37,337 --> 00:27:41,537 Speaker 1: but it needs to end now. And so Charles with 481 00:27:41,617 --> 00:27:44,057 Speaker 1: you and the Lockhabn Republicans. So what are you doing 482 00:27:44,097 --> 00:27:46,497 Speaker 1: to sort of get the word out that there are 483 00:27:47,057 --> 00:27:52,337 Speaker 1: gays and lesbians in this country that do not want this. Well, 484 00:27:52,377 --> 00:27:55,097 Speaker 1: one of the first things is being vocal invisible about it. 485 00:27:55,097 --> 00:27:59,177 Speaker 1: And it's very obviously to break through the mainstream media narrative. 486 00:27:59,577 --> 00:28:03,457 Speaker 1: When Chaston Buddha Judge got on TV and started trashing 487 00:28:03,497 --> 00:28:07,617 Speaker 1: the parental rights backed in Florida with Governor Stantis Lockhabn, 488 00:28:07,697 --> 00:28:09,857 Speaker 1: Republicans jumped right in and I got on TV and 489 00:28:10,057 --> 00:28:12,977 Speaker 1: imediately and called them a liar. When you see will 490 00:28:13,057 --> 00:28:15,737 Speaker 1: corporate media continuing to push this, it's part of a 491 00:28:15,857 --> 00:28:19,537 Speaker 1: larger narrative that I see, and it's it's a lot 492 00:28:19,537 --> 00:28:21,537 Speaker 1: of people see it, and it's born out of the 493 00:28:21,977 --> 00:28:26,017 Speaker 1: identification of critical race theory. But it's this destruction of 494 00:28:26,137 --> 00:28:30,217 Speaker 1: cultural morays in Western society that the left and Marxists 495 00:28:30,257 --> 00:28:35,657 Speaker 1: really deem is being an impediment to their takeover of 496 00:28:35,977 --> 00:28:39,217 Speaker 1: Western civilization. They've taken down religion, they're trying to take 497 00:28:39,217 --> 00:28:41,857 Speaker 1: down race. Now they're trying to take down gender, and 498 00:28:41,857 --> 00:28:46,297 Speaker 1: they're using things like schools, the entertainment industry, will corporations 499 00:28:46,657 --> 00:28:49,537 Speaker 1: as an attempt to just blur the lines that gender 500 00:28:49,577 --> 00:28:52,457 Speaker 1: doesn't matter in society. And we all know I mean 501 00:28:53,057 --> 00:28:56,737 Speaker 1: and me is a firm art and gay man that 502 00:28:56,937 --> 00:28:59,657 Speaker 1: gender has an absolute construct and it's had an important 503 00:28:59,657 --> 00:29:03,897 Speaker 1: construct in Western society. And the left, just as they've 504 00:29:03,897 --> 00:29:07,017 Speaker 1: tried to tear down race, they've tried to weaponize religion, 505 00:29:07,057 --> 00:29:10,697 Speaker 1: they've tried to weaponize our history. Now they're wept trying 506 00:29:10,737 --> 00:29:14,337 Speaker 1: to weaponize gender. And it's it's partner this march on 507 00:29:14,377 --> 00:29:18,097 Speaker 1: the left to remove these types of cultural morays that 508 00:29:18,137 --> 00:29:20,977 Speaker 1: are so important. And gay conservatives are standing up and 509 00:29:21,017 --> 00:29:24,937 Speaker 1: saying enough is enough. This is not LGBT equality, This 510 00:29:25,097 --> 00:29:29,417 Speaker 1: is woke, radical gender ideology. This is not the same 511 00:29:29,457 --> 00:29:32,937 Speaker 1: as as as as pride, it's not the same as equality, 512 00:29:33,137 --> 00:29:36,817 Speaker 1: and under no circumstances should this be misconstrued. And somebody 513 00:29:36,817 --> 00:29:38,297 Speaker 1: has to stand up and say it, and we are 514 00:29:38,377 --> 00:29:41,497 Speaker 1: and so are moms and dads and parents across the country. 515 00:29:41,617 --> 00:29:44,417 Speaker 1: There are supportive of LGBT equality, but they are not 516 00:29:44,497 --> 00:29:47,657 Speaker 1: going to go down this road of a radical gender 517 00:29:47,737 --> 00:29:51,657 Speaker 1: redefinition and society absolutely. And so let me ask you this, 518 00:29:52,377 --> 00:29:55,897 Speaker 1: what do you say to some conservatives that you know, 519 00:29:55,937 --> 00:29:59,617 Speaker 1: maybe watching this right now, that say they need to 520 00:29:59,657 --> 00:30:02,017 Speaker 1: get rid of pride altogether. I don't care if you 521 00:30:02,097 --> 00:30:03,497 Speaker 1: clean it up. I don't care if you take the 522 00:30:03,577 --> 00:30:05,897 Speaker 1: kids out of it. There is no space for this 523 00:30:05,937 --> 00:30:09,057 Speaker 1: at all. So what do you say to them? You know, 524 00:30:09,417 --> 00:30:12,377 Speaker 1: people can have their moment to celebrate whatever they want. 525 00:30:12,537 --> 00:30:14,297 Speaker 1: You know, here in New York where I am for 526 00:30:14,297 --> 00:30:16,897 Speaker 1: the next few days, you know, that was the birth 527 00:30:16,937 --> 00:30:19,337 Speaker 1: of Stonewall in places life loss as we had the 528 00:30:19,337 --> 00:30:24,177 Speaker 1: Black Cat UM. The birth of the of the real 529 00:30:24,937 --> 00:30:28,657 Speaker 1: gay civil rights movement with political work was the Briggs 530 00:30:28,657 --> 00:30:32,297 Speaker 1: Initiative in California and then Governor Ronald Reagan was heavily 531 00:30:32,337 --> 00:30:35,777 Speaker 1: involved with that UM, you know, to to help gays 532 00:30:35,777 --> 00:30:40,017 Speaker 1: come out of the closet as conservatives UM. And there 533 00:30:40,177 --> 00:30:43,537 Speaker 1: is a there is a component where we can you know, 534 00:30:43,857 --> 00:30:46,537 Speaker 1: be proud of who we are, of our accomplishments as 535 00:30:46,537 --> 00:30:48,537 Speaker 1: a community and how we take care of one another. 536 00:30:48,737 --> 00:30:52,257 Speaker 1: It doesn't all have to be drag shows and camp 537 00:30:52,737 --> 00:30:55,257 Speaker 1: and you know, we have built a real community. And 538 00:30:55,297 --> 00:30:58,497 Speaker 1: you know, Rob, you're part of our conservative UM community 539 00:30:58,537 --> 00:31:00,737 Speaker 1: as well. Like we take care of one another, we 540 00:31:00,817 --> 00:31:02,777 Speaker 1: look out for one another. And that's if we go 541 00:31:02,817 --> 00:31:05,657 Speaker 1: back to de Toqueville and the founding of America where 542 00:31:05,657 --> 00:31:08,617 Speaker 1: we have groups of people who have a similar shared interest, 543 00:31:08,817 --> 00:31:11,217 Speaker 1: where we do communities us, where we're looking out for 544 00:31:11,257 --> 00:31:13,297 Speaker 1: one another. A lot of us are single, may not 545 00:31:13,417 --> 00:31:15,977 Speaker 1: ever have kids. We've got to be there for another 546 00:31:16,017 --> 00:31:18,337 Speaker 1: And there's a lot of positive ways that pride can 547 00:31:18,377 --> 00:31:23,097 Speaker 1: manifest itself, senior housing, healthcare for one another, making sure 548 00:31:23,177 --> 00:31:25,137 Speaker 1: that we're there to look after one another so the 549 00:31:25,217 --> 00:31:28,577 Speaker 1: government doesn't have to do it. So there is really 550 00:31:28,617 --> 00:31:32,257 Speaker 1: an opportunity for pride to be used as something constructive 551 00:31:32,297 --> 00:31:35,017 Speaker 1: for our community. But what we're seeing right now is 552 00:31:35,097 --> 00:31:41,537 Speaker 1: a marketing show that just can't really be put in 553 00:31:41,617 --> 00:31:46,297 Speaker 1: any kind of positive frame whatsoever. It's just destructive, all right. 554 00:31:46,497 --> 00:31:50,177 Speaker 1: President of the log Cabin Republicans, Charles Moran, always spicy, 555 00:31:50,257 --> 00:31:55,457 Speaker 1: Thank you so much for joining, Thank you all right. 556 00:31:55,537 --> 00:31:58,497 Speaker 1: A major victory for Second Amendment advocates today as a 557 00:31:58,577 --> 00:32:03,177 Speaker 1: Supreme Court strikes down New York's arbitrary limits on concealed 558 00:32:03,217 --> 00:32:06,897 Speaker 1: carry permits. The host of counter Culture on the Epic Times, 559 00:32:06,977 --> 00:32:09,977 Speaker 1: Danielle de Suza, joins us next to give her tay 560 00:32:10,417 --> 00:32:17,097 Speaker 1: stay with us. Each morning, the President of the United 561 00:32:17,097 --> 00:32:20,337 Speaker 1: States receives a highly classified briefing on the most important 562 00:32:20,337 --> 00:32:23,617 Speaker 1: issues facing the country. It's called the President's Daily Brief, 563 00:32:23,817 --> 00:32:27,737 Speaker 1: or PDB. It's delivered by America's spies and analysts. Well, 564 00:32:27,737 --> 00:32:30,537 Speaker 1: now you can hear your very own PDB in the 565 00:32:30,577 --> 00:32:33,577 Speaker 1: form of a podcast hosted by me Brian Dean Wright, 566 00:32:33,817 --> 00:32:37,777 Speaker 1: a former CIA operations officer. Each morning at six am Eastern, 567 00:32:37,817 --> 00:32:39,937 Speaker 1: I'll bring you fifteen to twenty minutes of the most 568 00:32:39,977 --> 00:32:43,497 Speaker 1: important issues facing the country, giving you the critical intelligence 569 00:32:43,497 --> 00:32:54,497 Speaker 1: and analysis you need to start your morning. We the President, myself, 570 00:32:54,617 --> 00:32:57,457 Speaker 1: many of us are deeply concerned and troubled by the 571 00:32:57,537 --> 00:33:02,857 Speaker 1: Supreme Court's ruling today. It I believe defies common sense 572 00:33:03,937 --> 00:33:09,297 Speaker 1: and the Constitution of the United States. Vice President Kamala 573 00:33:09,377 --> 00:33:13,617 Speaker 1: Harris deeply concerned and unhappy about the scotus ruling this 574 00:33:13,657 --> 00:33:16,857 Speaker 1: morning on concealed carry permits in New York. But this 575 00:33:16,977 --> 00:33:19,977 Speaker 1: is a huge win for supporters of the Second Amendment. 576 00:33:20,297 --> 00:33:24,057 Speaker 1: As scotus Blog reported this morning, the Supreme Court strikes 577 00:33:24,097 --> 00:33:27,097 Speaker 1: down a New York gun control law that required people 578 00:33:27,097 --> 00:33:30,177 Speaker 1: to show quote proper cause to get a license to 579 00:33:30,257 --> 00:33:34,137 Speaker 1: carry a concealed handgun outside the home. The vote is 580 00:33:34,217 --> 00:33:37,977 Speaker 1: sixty three. Joining me now to discuss is Danielle de Susa, 581 00:33:38,057 --> 00:33:42,177 Speaker 1: host of Counterculture with Danielle de Susa. Thank you so 582 00:33:42,257 --> 00:33:45,217 Speaker 1: much for joining me. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts 583 00:33:45,217 --> 00:33:48,817 Speaker 1: on this. Hi, Rob, thanks so much for having me. 584 00:33:48,897 --> 00:33:51,057 Speaker 1: I mean, I think what's so crazy about this is 585 00:33:51,137 --> 00:33:54,537 Speaker 1: Kaplin Harris. She is no legal scholar. She literally clearly 586 00:33:54,617 --> 00:33:56,977 Speaker 1: has not read the Constitution, has not read the Second 587 00:33:57,017 --> 00:34:01,417 Speaker 1: Amendment to see that our rights shall not be infringed. Yeah, 588 00:34:01,457 --> 00:34:03,777 Speaker 1: it's very interesting about that. And so when you look 589 00:34:03,777 --> 00:34:06,417 Speaker 1: at all the conversation that's happening on social media today, 590 00:34:06,457 --> 00:34:08,297 Speaker 1: because you know, I follow people on the right and 591 00:34:08,377 --> 00:34:11,297 Speaker 1: the left, it's really interesting and important to follow people 592 00:34:11,337 --> 00:34:12,857 Speaker 1: on the left because they have to see just how 593 00:34:13,097 --> 00:34:16,897 Speaker 1: uninformed they are. But literally, people are saying that it's 594 00:34:16,937 --> 00:34:20,097 Speaker 1: so cool that, you know, this is sarcasm that the 595 00:34:20,097 --> 00:34:23,937 Speaker 1: Supreme Court just struck down the law to about you know, 596 00:34:23,977 --> 00:34:28,177 Speaker 1: the right to the Supreme Court just struck down this 597 00:34:28,297 --> 00:34:31,617 Speaker 1: concealed carry thing for New York. While they're about to 598 00:34:31,657 --> 00:34:34,297 Speaker 1: strike down the right of women to have an abortion, 599 00:34:34,377 --> 00:34:36,537 Speaker 1: you have to make the note that abortion is not 600 00:34:36,617 --> 00:34:38,937 Speaker 1: in the constitution. These people have no idea what's in 601 00:34:38,977 --> 00:34:42,657 Speaker 1: the constitution. But let me go to this. So Justice 602 00:34:42,657 --> 00:34:46,537 Speaker 1: Stephen Bryer issued a statement on the new ruling, saying that, quote, 603 00:34:47,017 --> 00:34:51,417 Speaker 1: only by ignoring an abundance of historical evidence supporting regulations 604 00:34:51,417 --> 00:34:55,537 Speaker 1: restricting the public carriage of firearms can the Court conclude 605 00:34:55,857 --> 00:34:59,457 Speaker 1: that New York's law is not quote, consistent with the 606 00:34:59,577 --> 00:35:05,297 Speaker 1: nation's historical tradition of firearm regulation. That is what comes 607 00:35:05,297 --> 00:35:08,097 Speaker 1: when you actually read the Constitution, when you actually know 608 00:35:08,137 --> 00:35:12,617 Speaker 1: what's in there. So, Danielle, question to you is why 609 00:35:12,937 --> 00:35:16,417 Speaker 1: is the left so high up on this horse? Like, 610 00:35:16,537 --> 00:35:20,217 Speaker 1: why is this the hill that they are so ready 611 00:35:20,257 --> 00:35:23,137 Speaker 1: and willing to not only die on, but to show 612 00:35:23,137 --> 00:35:27,617 Speaker 1: their complete ignorance about. Yeah. Well, I think the timing 613 00:35:27,617 --> 00:35:30,137 Speaker 1: of this was probably just really a gut punch for 614 00:35:30,177 --> 00:35:32,657 Speaker 1: them because they were so ready to pass these restrictions 615 00:35:32,657 --> 00:35:35,737 Speaker 1: in the Senate. I think they felt really good about themselves, 616 00:35:35,737 --> 00:35:37,297 Speaker 1: They felt like they were on a great role, and 617 00:35:37,337 --> 00:35:39,737 Speaker 1: then they realized, oh wait, no, actually, even if we 618 00:35:39,857 --> 00:35:42,697 Speaker 1: have something, it could get struck down by the Supreme Court, 619 00:35:42,777 --> 00:35:45,417 Speaker 1: or it wouldn't even be constitutional. Clearly. But I think 620 00:35:45,457 --> 00:35:47,697 Speaker 1: i'd have to go to Clarence Thomas with what he said. 621 00:35:47,737 --> 00:35:50,937 Speaker 1: He basically wrote that the Second Amendment is not an 622 00:35:50,937 --> 00:35:53,937 Speaker 1: inferior amendment. So some people try to think, oh, well, 623 00:35:53,937 --> 00:35:56,297 Speaker 1: you know, maybe the First Amendment for a speech or 624 00:35:56,737 --> 00:35:59,017 Speaker 1: due process, all of these other things, they are more 625 00:35:59,017 --> 00:36:01,097 Speaker 1: important than the Second Amendment is one that we can 626 00:36:01,137 --> 00:36:03,337 Speaker 1: just keep chipping away at, and every time there's a 627 00:36:03,377 --> 00:36:06,337 Speaker 1: school shooting or whatever happens, let's just keep chipping away 628 00:36:06,337 --> 00:36:08,417 Speaker 1: at this. But it truly is an amendment, and it 629 00:36:08,457 --> 00:36:12,217 Speaker 1: has the same pity and tenacity as all of the 630 00:36:12,297 --> 00:36:15,057 Speaker 1: other amendments, and so I think we have to protect 631 00:36:15,137 --> 00:36:17,897 Speaker 1: it because we don't need to explain why we have 632 00:36:18,017 --> 00:36:20,137 Speaker 1: this right. That right is already there, and if we 633 00:36:20,177 --> 00:36:22,777 Speaker 1: want to exercise that right, that is our right. So 634 00:36:23,057 --> 00:36:26,177 Speaker 1: New York was taking away one of our fundamental rights. 635 00:36:27,097 --> 00:36:30,057 Speaker 1: And that's very interesting. In speaking of New York again, 636 00:36:30,257 --> 00:36:33,017 Speaker 1: So Democratic Governor Kathy Hokel of New York is of 637 00:36:33,057 --> 00:36:37,177 Speaker 1: course unhappy about the decision. In her response, and I 638 00:36:37,177 --> 00:36:40,777 Speaker 1: want you to watch this. It really speaks to a 639 00:36:40,897 --> 00:36:43,337 Speaker 1: lack of common sense that has always coming from the 640 00:36:43,417 --> 00:36:45,937 Speaker 1: left about this issue. So watch her reaction to the 641 00:36:45,937 --> 00:36:48,457 Speaker 1: news from the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court of the 642 00:36:48,537 --> 00:36:52,017 Speaker 1: United States of America has stripped away the State of 643 00:36:52,057 --> 00:36:57,737 Speaker 1: New York's right and responsibility to protect its citizens with 644 00:36:57,897 --> 00:37:03,537 Speaker 1: a decision which we are still digesting, which is frightful 645 00:37:04,057 --> 00:37:09,577 Speaker 1: in its scope of how they are setting back this 646 00:37:09,697 --> 00:37:13,897 Speaker 1: nation in our ability to protect our citizens, back the 647 00:37:13,977 --> 00:37:19,337 Speaker 1: days of our founding fathers. So, I, look, I'm not 648 00:37:19,497 --> 00:37:22,977 Speaker 1: some Second Amendment sort of like scholar. I am very 649 00:37:23,057 --> 00:37:25,017 Speaker 1: much pro to A. Look, I'm a veteran, I was 650 00:37:25,017 --> 00:37:28,657 Speaker 1: in the military. I believe in Americans fundamental rights to 651 00:37:28,777 --> 00:37:32,257 Speaker 1: protect themselves. Right. You got a black guy and a 652 00:37:32,257 --> 00:37:36,257 Speaker 1: woman over here talking that are both very pro to A. 653 00:37:36,737 --> 00:37:38,857 Speaker 1: But the thing that irritates me the most about what 654 00:37:38,937 --> 00:37:41,537 Speaker 1: Kathy Hulk was saying is that it is divorced from 655 00:37:41,537 --> 00:37:44,217 Speaker 1: common sense. So what she is trying to tell these 656 00:37:44,257 --> 00:37:46,937 Speaker 1: people that she is lying to is that this law 657 00:37:46,977 --> 00:37:49,697 Speaker 1: is going to make the streets more dangerous because it 658 00:37:49,857 --> 00:37:52,417 Speaker 1: is allowing or it is going to make it harder 659 00:37:52,457 --> 00:37:55,857 Speaker 1: for them to protect themselves, which is completely ridiculous, right, 660 00:37:56,097 --> 00:37:59,057 Speaker 1: And so they are lying to their people for what reason. 661 00:37:59,217 --> 00:38:01,737 Speaker 1: I am very curious as to what your thoughts on 662 00:38:01,737 --> 00:38:05,617 Speaker 1: this are, Yeah, it's completely ridiculous, And I guess I 663 00:38:05,657 --> 00:38:07,537 Speaker 1: would just want to point out first that even when 664 00:38:07,577 --> 00:38:10,497 Speaker 1: she's holding up those papers, it's clear she hasn't even 665 00:38:10,497 --> 00:38:13,137 Speaker 1: actually read the decision. She's basically saying, Wow, this is 666 00:38:13,177 --> 00:38:15,697 Speaker 1: so long, this is so much work. I actually don't 667 00:38:15,697 --> 00:38:17,977 Speaker 1: even know what's in these documents other than the fact 668 00:38:17,977 --> 00:38:19,857 Speaker 1: that I know I'm against it. I know it's setting 669 00:38:19,897 --> 00:38:22,097 Speaker 1: us back in history. And I feel like the left, 670 00:38:22,137 --> 00:38:23,817 Speaker 1: you know, they always say that they always act like 671 00:38:23,857 --> 00:38:27,097 Speaker 1: anything they want is going to push us forward, that's progress, 672 00:38:27,137 --> 00:38:29,377 Speaker 1: but anything that the conservatives want is setting us back 673 00:38:29,417 --> 00:38:31,777 Speaker 1: in time. Well, I would say this is actually huge 674 00:38:31,777 --> 00:38:34,177 Speaker 1: progress because now you know, women in New York, like 675 00:38:34,297 --> 00:38:36,817 Speaker 1: myself can protect themselves if we are walking around on 676 00:38:36,857 --> 00:38:39,017 Speaker 1: the street. And I'm sure she's noticed and others have 677 00:38:39,137 --> 00:38:41,017 Speaker 1: noticed that it's not a safe place. The city has 678 00:38:41,377 --> 00:38:45,817 Speaker 1: taken a clear downward spiral with homelessness and crime, and 679 00:38:45,937 --> 00:38:48,577 Speaker 1: unfortunately the police are not always there next to you 680 00:38:48,657 --> 00:38:51,257 Speaker 1: to jump in and help you, and so sometimes you 681 00:38:51,297 --> 00:38:53,177 Speaker 1: have to be ready for those things. But again, we 682 00:38:53,217 --> 00:38:55,577 Speaker 1: don't even need to justify ourselves in this because it's 683 00:38:55,577 --> 00:38:58,257 Speaker 1: our right. But Sadly, I do think many people who 684 00:38:58,297 --> 00:39:01,217 Speaker 1: live in Democrat areas and live in cities probably will 685 00:39:01,257 --> 00:39:03,817 Speaker 1: actually need to be using this more than if you 686 00:39:03,897 --> 00:39:06,217 Speaker 1: live somewhere else where you might be surrounded by more 687 00:39:06,217 --> 00:39:10,297 Speaker 1: people who are carrying here. Unfortunately, that's pretty unlikely. It's 688 00:39:10,337 --> 00:39:14,057 Speaker 1: basically been impossible to get this concealed carry license, even 689 00:39:14,097 --> 00:39:16,337 Speaker 1: if you explained all these things. Here are death threats, 690 00:39:16,377 --> 00:39:18,737 Speaker 1: here are reasons why I need this. Yeah, good luck. 691 00:39:18,777 --> 00:39:20,977 Speaker 1: I mean, you probably weren't going to get it unless 692 00:39:20,977 --> 00:39:24,257 Speaker 1: you're literally Caffy hokel and you are some person who 693 00:39:24,297 --> 00:39:28,417 Speaker 1: has you know, secret service level kind of release around 694 00:39:28,417 --> 00:39:31,697 Speaker 1: you all the time. They always have armed security. They 695 00:39:31,777 --> 00:39:34,377 Speaker 1: always in speaking of which, and I think I got 696 00:39:34,377 --> 00:39:36,257 Speaker 1: time to go to one more here. This is the 697 00:39:36,297 --> 00:39:39,097 Speaker 1: View's Whoopie Goldberg, and she is saying this, by the way, 698 00:39:39,137 --> 00:39:42,417 Speaker 1: from a protected set at ABC Studios right on the 699 00:39:42,457 --> 00:39:44,577 Speaker 1: Upper West side of New York City. This is heard 700 00:39:44,617 --> 00:39:49,817 Speaker 1: declaring the new concealed carry law insane. We have been 701 00:39:49,857 --> 00:39:53,337 Speaker 1: trying to figure out how to get a handle on 702 00:39:53,497 --> 00:39:55,977 Speaker 1: all that has been going on in this city, in 703 00:39:56,017 --> 00:39:59,497 Speaker 1: particular with gun laws, and it makes you wonder, what 704 00:39:59,617 --> 00:40:04,937 Speaker 1: does this mean? We saying to me, well, yes you can. Yeah. 705 00:40:04,017 --> 00:40:07,017 Speaker 1: That's the thing about it is is that And what 706 00:40:07,097 --> 00:40:09,297 Speaker 1: I love about the view is that it is literally 707 00:40:09,337 --> 00:40:13,537 Speaker 1: be dumbish on television. These people are so misinformed and 708 00:40:13,657 --> 00:40:17,337 Speaker 1: uninformed about everything that they opine on. But this is 709 00:40:17,377 --> 00:40:19,937 Speaker 1: the case of a New York City liberal that has 710 00:40:20,257 --> 00:40:23,217 Speaker 1: protection everywhere she goes, from the car service to the 711 00:40:23,497 --> 00:40:27,377 Speaker 1: armed guards that are protecting the set, declaring you're an eye. 712 00:40:27,937 --> 00:40:32,137 Speaker 1: Regular citizens are our ability to protect ourselves completely insane. 713 00:40:32,817 --> 00:40:35,417 Speaker 1: We are short on time, so I'm gonna let you go, 714 00:40:35,497 --> 00:40:39,977 Speaker 1: but thank you so much. Danielle Desuza, host of Counterculture 715 00:40:40,137 --> 00:40:43,457 Speaker 1: with Danielle de SUSA to join me to talk about 716 00:40:43,497 --> 00:40:49,657 Speaker 1: this very important issue. Thanks Rob. All Right, Americans are 717 00:40:49,657 --> 00:40:53,497 Speaker 1: feeling a major economic pinch between inflation and high gas prices, 718 00:40:53,537 --> 00:40:55,817 Speaker 1: but don't worry. The White House has a plan to 719 00:40:55,857 --> 00:40:59,177 Speaker 1: save you eighteen whole since we've got the video that 720 00:40:59,297 --> 00:41:08,577 Speaker 1: in tonight's Quick Hits, stay right there, Congressman Eric Swalwell 721 00:41:08,737 --> 00:41:11,457 Speaker 1: makes up a doozy of the story and Biden gets 722 00:41:11,457 --> 00:41:14,417 Speaker 1: tongue tied yet again. Oh my god, I mean, so 723 00:41:14,497 --> 00:41:17,217 Speaker 1: what else is new? Those stories in tonight's Quick Hits 724 00:41:17,417 --> 00:41:22,457 Speaker 1: let's get to it. Eric Swawell is tweeting stories again. 725 00:41:22,577 --> 00:41:24,897 Speaker 1: He loves telling. His story is probably some of the 726 00:41:24,937 --> 00:41:28,497 Speaker 1: same stories he told Fang Fang in bed that Chinese spy. 727 00:41:28,657 --> 00:41:30,937 Speaker 1: But that's neither here nor there. This is what he 728 00:41:31,017 --> 00:41:34,697 Speaker 1: said in a tweet. He said this today. I gave 729 00:41:34,737 --> 00:41:37,577 Speaker 1: a tour in the Capitol and was stopped by a 730 00:41:37,657 --> 00:41:40,817 Speaker 1: father with his young boy. The father yelled at me, 731 00:41:41,057 --> 00:41:46,137 Speaker 1: Hey Swalwell, and then told his son that Swalwell, he's trouble. 732 00:41:46,577 --> 00:41:50,297 Speaker 1: He doesn't back Trump. I kept walking and felt sad 733 00:41:50,337 --> 00:41:53,497 Speaker 1: for the boy. He's being raised in a cult family. 734 00:41:54,657 --> 00:41:58,657 Speaker 1: Oh that Eric Swalwell. He is such a stand up guy. 735 00:41:58,697 --> 00:42:01,217 Speaker 1: He is such a proud American. He is such a 736 00:42:01,337 --> 00:42:04,697 Speaker 1: good American that he was duped into having an affair 737 00:42:05,017 --> 00:42:08,657 Speaker 1: with a Chinese spy. And what kills me about the 738 00:42:08,737 --> 00:42:11,817 Speaker 1: left folks. What kills me about the people these leftist 739 00:42:11,897 --> 00:42:15,377 Speaker 1: Democrat politicians is that these people know that they are 740 00:42:15,417 --> 00:42:19,497 Speaker 1: so deeply protected by the Democrats in the mainstream media 741 00:42:19,497 --> 00:42:22,777 Speaker 1: and that entire infrastructure, that they can walk around with 742 00:42:22,857 --> 00:42:26,337 Speaker 1: their noses held up high at people that voted for 743 00:42:26,377 --> 00:42:30,457 Speaker 1: Donald Trump, knowing like Eric Swawell does that he literally 744 00:42:30,537 --> 00:42:35,577 Speaker 1: had an affair with a Chinese spy, okay, And so 745 00:42:35,617 --> 00:42:38,057 Speaker 1: these people pretend that these things don't exist while they 746 00:42:38,097 --> 00:42:40,897 Speaker 1: look down on Trump voters. So instead of you know, 747 00:42:41,057 --> 00:42:43,617 Speaker 1: figuring out what was going on with China, instead of 748 00:42:43,617 --> 00:42:48,617 Speaker 1: maybe investigating this woman that conned her way into his bed, 749 00:42:48,657 --> 00:42:52,537 Speaker 1: he spends all of his time trying to demonize people 750 00:42:52,897 --> 00:42:55,897 Speaker 1: that voted for Trump. And don't think that this just 751 00:42:56,137 --> 00:42:59,457 Speaker 1: is about Donald Trump. It'll be about Donald Trump, It'll 752 00:42:59,497 --> 00:43:02,697 Speaker 1: be about Rhonda Santis, it'll be about any other Republican 753 00:43:02,937 --> 00:43:05,537 Speaker 1: because all of these people, All that these people do 754 00:43:05,977 --> 00:43:10,057 Speaker 1: is demonize the other side. Speaking of demonizing the other side, 755 00:43:10,297 --> 00:43:12,377 Speaker 1: that is pretty much all that Joe Biden does. But 756 00:43:12,537 --> 00:43:17,017 Speaker 1: now Biden, oh, he has got another tongue twister for 757 00:43:17,097 --> 00:43:20,457 Speaker 1: us again. He is creating words right now. Look at this. 758 00:43:22,017 --> 00:43:24,577 Speaker 1: America is a nation that can be defined in a 759 00:43:24,697 --> 00:43:32,377 Speaker 1: single word. I can define Biden in a single word, 760 00:43:32,417 --> 00:43:36,017 Speaker 1: and that word is embarrassing, you know. And the thing 761 00:43:36,057 --> 00:43:39,097 Speaker 1: about this is people is this. There are people that 762 00:43:39,297 --> 00:43:41,697 Speaker 1: actually voted for Joe Biden. There's some of them out there, 763 00:43:41,937 --> 00:43:44,337 Speaker 1: you know. Apparently maybe some of them are even watching 764 00:43:44,417 --> 00:43:47,377 Speaker 1: right now. Apparently you have been red pilled by all 765 00:43:47,417 --> 00:43:49,937 Speaker 1: of the nonsense that you've been seeing. You've come over 766 00:43:49,977 --> 00:43:51,937 Speaker 1: to the dark side. If that is you, I would 767 00:43:51,937 --> 00:43:55,697 Speaker 1: say welcome. But here's the thing that really irritates me. 768 00:43:56,097 --> 00:43:58,457 Speaker 1: We are not allowed to talk about the fact that 769 00:43:58,577 --> 00:44:01,937 Speaker 1: Joe Biden is frail and weak and weird. We're not 770 00:44:01,977 --> 00:44:04,737 Speaker 1: allowed to talk about the fact that the oldest president 771 00:44:05,097 --> 00:44:09,297 Speaker 1: in United States history regularly does this. The guy falls 772 00:44:09,297 --> 00:44:12,857 Speaker 1: off the bike, guy trips up, he trips up the 773 00:44:13,657 --> 00:44:16,377 Speaker 1: Air Force one. He does all of these things. And 774 00:44:16,497 --> 00:44:20,297 Speaker 1: let me tell you this, if Trump had messed up 775 00:44:20,377 --> 00:44:22,657 Speaker 1: in front of so many cameras in this way all 776 00:44:22,697 --> 00:44:26,297 Speaker 1: the time, you would see weeks and weeks and weeks 777 00:44:26,297 --> 00:44:30,017 Speaker 1: of media coverage. It would literally be NonStop with these 778 00:44:30,057 --> 00:44:33,857 Speaker 1: people sort of talking about how unfit for office he is. 779 00:44:33,857 --> 00:44:35,577 Speaker 1: But we don't see that with Joe Biden because we 780 00:44:35,617 --> 00:44:39,497 Speaker 1: have an entire infrastructure that is covering for him. It 781 00:44:39,777 --> 00:44:44,857 Speaker 1: is ridiculous and it is un American. Speaking of which, 782 00:44:45,097 --> 00:44:50,177 Speaker 1: Karen Jean Pierre, the Biden administrations liar in chief, as 783 00:44:50,177 --> 00:44:53,097 Speaker 1: I said earlier, tells you she is lying to you, 784 00:44:53,177 --> 00:44:56,377 Speaker 1: or she's telling you that saving just a little bit 785 00:44:56,377 --> 00:44:58,457 Speaker 1: of money on your gas will go a long way. 786 00:44:59,217 --> 00:45:02,977 Speaker 1: He sees this as an opportunity to a straightforward, simple 787 00:45:03,017 --> 00:45:07,577 Speaker 1: way to deal with the pain that the American people 788 00:45:07,617 --> 00:45:10,617 Speaker 1: is dealing with, giving them some relief at the That's 789 00:45:10,617 --> 00:45:14,857 Speaker 1: what we're talking about. It's straightforward, it's simple. The President 790 00:45:14,857 --> 00:45:18,977 Speaker 1: would like Congress to act. We're talking about, you know, 791 00:45:19,097 --> 00:45:22,697 Speaker 1: eighteen cents per gallon, which is going to go a 792 00:45:22,737 --> 00:45:25,697 Speaker 1: long way. If you look at the average of states 793 00:45:25,737 --> 00:45:28,377 Speaker 1: as thirty cents. Just looking at those two things, that's 794 00:45:28,377 --> 00:45:31,057 Speaker 1: almost fifty cents. That's going to go a long way 795 00:45:31,137 --> 00:45:33,857 Speaker 1: for three months. That's it. Three months. That's a if. 796 00:45:33,897 --> 00:45:37,697 Speaker 1: But yeah, absolutely, but we're going to continue to work 797 00:45:37,737 --> 00:45:42,497 Speaker 1: hard and to to get the American public some really 798 00:45:43,417 --> 00:45:46,497 Speaker 1: wow that eighteen cents, while it's gonna go a very 799 00:45:46,537 --> 00:45:48,617 Speaker 1: long way. You know, you add that to what was 800 00:45:48,657 --> 00:45:50,857 Speaker 1: it that they that they saved us at the fourth 801 00:45:50,857 --> 00:45:53,817 Speaker 1: of July in twenty twenty one, was like sixteen cents. 802 00:45:53,817 --> 00:45:55,577 Speaker 1: While you put that all together, you may have enough 803 00:45:55,737 --> 00:45:58,217 Speaker 1: for a hot dog. These people are ridiculous. You have 804 00:45:58,257 --> 00:46:00,897 Speaker 1: to understand that they say these things because they live 805 00:46:00,977 --> 00:46:04,297 Speaker 1: in the bubble that they never get out of. Well, 806 00:46:04,337 --> 00:46:06,657 Speaker 1: look that is all the time we have for tonight 807 00:46:06,777 --> 00:46:09,417 Speaker 1: the No Spin News Bill Riley is coming up next. 808 00:46:09,497 --> 00:46:12,697 Speaker 1: As my good friend Buck would say, she'll tie
