Politico's Elena schneider I was writing about the 32 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 3: Democratic numbers on Tuesday, quote, the Democratic Party's brand is 33 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 3: in rough shape in the congressional battlegrounds. Nearly two months 34 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 3: into the second Donald Trump administration, A majority of voters 35 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 3: in battleground house districts still believe Democrats in Congress quote 36 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 3: are more focused on helping other people than people like me. 37 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 3: According to an internal poll long Independence, just twenty seven 38 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 3: believe Democrats are focused on helping them, compared with fifty 39 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 3: five percent. Friends, that's more than double who say they're 40 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 3: focused on the other people, not people like me. 41 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, although when it comes to election time, you just 42 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: have to be the smartest horse or the tallest little person. 43 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, with the Republican Party b by then well. 44 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,679 Speaker 3: And will the Republican Party manage not to nominate jackasses? 45 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 3: Ironically elephant jackasses. Democrat polster Molly Murphy is quoted in 46 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 3: the Political Pieces saying while voters were somewhat critical of 47 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 3: Trump in some spots. The Democrats have serious damage to 48 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 3: fix with their own brand before voters trust them in 49 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 3: government again, said prominent democrat. The Democratic brand is still 50 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 3: not where it needs to be in terms of core 51 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 3: trust and understanding people's challenges. Other numbers in the poll 52 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 3: are even worse for Democrats. A majority fifty six percent 53 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 3: of those surveys said Democrats are not looking out for 54 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 3: work class people are not. Forty two percent say they 55 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 3: shared values with Democrats. Just thirty nine percent said Democrats 56 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 3: value work, and just forty four percent said Democrats even 57 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,519 Speaker 3: respect work. Thirty nine percent said Democrats have the right 58 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 3: priorities as a party, So that's not great. 59 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 2: Don't respect work? Wow, you don't want that brand. Gosh. 60 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 3: And in a completely wildly unrelated story, hundreds of protesters, 61 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 3: many of them in drag, descended on the Kennedy Center 62 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 3: on Saturday as part of a rally in March for Drag. 63 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 3: Was the latest in a serious protests in response to 64 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 3: President Trump's ban on Kennedy Center drag productions, said drag 65 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 3: artist Tara Hoot. This president is demonizing a marginalized community 66 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 3: in order to control the arts in America. 67 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 2: It's shameful, immoral and weak. Keep going with that. 68 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 3: Good Luckily, all right, I'm looking at a picture of 69 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 3: this freak wow and f bomb. That's a nerve freak anyway. 70 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 3: And finally this the DNC has picked a new executive director. 71 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 3: Have you heard about this guy. He's a former Liz 72 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 3: Warren campaign manager. Now, this is the guy who's going 73 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 3: to bring the Democratic Party back from what I was 74 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 3: just describing and all those poll results. He's a longtime 75 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 3: staffer and failed campaign manager for a handful of people, 76 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:32,039 Speaker 3: who not only lists his pronouns on his website, but 77 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 3: lists them in Mandarin Roger law. He touts his decades 78 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 3: long experience. There's a campaign manager for a bunch of losers. 79 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,239 Speaker 3: But Loo embodies many of the same characteristics that define 80 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 3: the Democrats defeat in twenty four He said in October 81 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 3: that it was very cool when vice presidential candidate Tim 82 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 3: Walls live streamed one half of a Madden NFL video 83 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 3: game with AOC The final score was zero to zero 84 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 3: because they were so bad at it. In addition to 85 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 3: disclosing his Chinese pronouns on social media, a low made 86 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 3: far left identity politics a central focus of Warren's twenty 87 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 3: twenty presidential campaign. You noted in a campaign memo the 88 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 3: company invested more than seven hundred thousand dollars in radio, 89 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 3: print and mail advertisement to reach LATINX communities, et cetera, 90 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 3: et cetera. So they picked a far lefty to lead 91 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 3: them back from the brink of irrelevance that they're on. 92 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:33,920 Speaker 3: Then finally this from Politico, and we saw this the 93 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:35,839 Speaker 3: other day. I should have asked for all those videos 94 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 3: when everybody was reading from the same script saying here's 95 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 3: what you're gonna hear. 96 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 2: S that isn't true. Do you have that? 97 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,359 Speaker 3: Evidently, using foul language is the new strategy in the 98 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 3: Democratic Party. Jasmin Crockett, who we just heard from, telling 99 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 3: Elon Musk to f off. You got it, Michael, Yeah, 100 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 3: don't worry, it's not that important. Ken Martin, the new 101 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 3: chair of the DNC, to a more Midwestern approach. Go 102 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:09,280 Speaker 3: to hell, he said later on X. Let's see Democrats 103 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 3: are cursing up a storm, said John Fetterman of Pennsylvania 104 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 3: GD It tell me who started that. It's kind of 105 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 3: a funny thing to say. Former DNC chair Tom Ferez 106 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 3: frequently deployed profanity in twenty seventeen, saying, for example, that 107 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 3: Trump doesn't give. 108 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 2: An ass about healthcare. Okay, there you go, there you go. 109 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: So I have talked a little bit lately about how 110 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 1: much trouble I'm having sleeping, worst I've ever had in 111 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: my life. It's reuly a drag. I wake up at 112 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: like one two o'clock and then stay awake in It's 113 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:42,039 Speaker 1: been horrible. So somebody suggested these various supplements that they 114 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: said really worked for them. So I ordered them on Amazon, 115 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: had them the next day and tried it for the 116 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,279 Speaker 1: first time Monday night and Tuesday night, and had the 117 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: two best nights of sleep I've had. This is an AD. 118 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: By the way it sounds like an AD, it is 119 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: the opposite of an AD soon to be. I had 120 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: the two best nights of sleep I've had in years. 121 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: I slept all night long, Like I don't remember the 122 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,279 Speaker 1: last time I went to sleep and didn't wake up 123 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: until the alarm went off. 124 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 2: God, it's been years.

So, 323 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 8: the Russians right now feel that they have the edge 324 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 8: on the battlefield and that they are not going to 325 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 8: be pressured or rushed into any sort of ceasefire agreement. 326 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:40,120 Speaker 2: Yeah. 327 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 1: Well, if you didn't see it on TV last night, 328 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: Putin showed up to the front lines there in military 329 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: garb as the Russians took back the biggest city in 330 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 1: that chunk of Russia that Ukraine had been holding on 331 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 1: to for ten months I think, And they're going to 332 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,919 Speaker 1: push the Ukrainians out of there, and that was going 333 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 1: to be a good bargaining chip for the Ukrainians to 334 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: have to try to get back some of their land, 335 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,359 Speaker 1: which of course Putin knows, which is why he's there 336 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 1: dressed as a general, trying to make sure his troops, 337 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: his troops North Koreans take back their chunk of land. 338 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:22,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, the North Koreans convicts and conscripts. Yeah, I'm right, 339 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,679 Speaker 3: and just on a purely practical level, if I was 340 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:26,919 Speaker 3: advising Putin, I would say, no, no, we're on the 341 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 3: front foot right now. We got plenty of machine gun 342 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 3: fodder here, let's keep going. 343 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:33,719 Speaker 2: Here's Clarissa a. Ward with another report. 344 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,359 Speaker 9: President Zelenski gave a press conference and he was really 345 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:41,440 Speaker 9: walking a very straight line. He only spoke in Ukrainian. 346 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 9: He would not, despite the best efforts of a number 347 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 9: of reporters, be drawn into more talk about his spot 348 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,679 Speaker 9: with President Trump. He really wanted to keep the focus 349 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 9: on where the narrative is now. Effectively, we are not 350 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 9: blocking piece. The words he used, I believe, were to say, 351 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 9: it's very important to me to end this war, and 352 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 9: I very much want Americans to know and to feel this. 353 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 1: Well, we all know where he is. He's got to 354 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 1: make sure Trump's happy. 355 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:12,440 Speaker 2: Sure. Sure. 356 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,919 Speaker 1: By the way, after the Trump spat, his popularity in 357 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 1: Ukraine surged higher. 358 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 2: Interesting which is interesting. 359 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:23,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, speaking of interesting, So there's this story that some 360 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 3: of our beloved listeners perhaps you're listening now, sent along 361 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,640 Speaker 3: to us, said, you guys are totally missing the boat 362 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:30,199 Speaker 3: on Ukraine. 363 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,680 Speaker 2: It's completely corrupt. I've addressed that more than once. 364 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 3: Every post Soviet republic struggles with corruption and claws its 365 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,920 Speaker 3: way toward something close to actual. 366 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:42,400 Speaker 2: Democracy and decency. 367 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 3: It's inevitable when you throw off the yoak communism. Anyway, 368 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 3: I've never argued for a minute that there's no corruption 369 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 3: in Ukraine. There's plenty of corruption in America. Asked Joe 370 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 3: Biden and Hunter and James anyway, But the story is. 371 00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 2: I feel like that's a complete distraction anyway. 372 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, if it were a friendly dictatorship, we don't Russia 373 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 1: want Russia taking it over. No, No, So the other 374 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 1: story that's making the rounds and we've had sent to 375 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 1: us is that Russia, and this is the essence of it. 376 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 1: Russian and Ukrainian negotiators sat down early in the war, 377 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 1: in the spring of twenty twenty two, and reached a deal, 378 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 1: or were very close to one. 379 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 3: Ukraine became overconfident and influenced by Boris Johnson of the 380 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 3: uk and the US decided, no, we're not going to 381 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 3: sign this excellent deal. 382 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 2: We're going to fight instead. 383 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:43,160 Speaker 3: And it's the US that promoted this war, not Putin, 384 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 3: and we're the bad guys. It's very much the same 385 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,119 Speaker 3: strain of thinking that Churchill was the bad guy in 386 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 3: World War Two and Hitler just accidentally killed all those people. 387 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 2: Lunacy. Anyway, it goes on. 388 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,399 Speaker 3: At Ukraine accepted the deal, it could have gaped with 389 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 3: its territory, or at least its sovereignty intact, it would 390 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 3: have had to renounce joining NATO, and the Brits and 391 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 3: the US didn't want that. Therefore, the continuation of the 392 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,359 Speaker 3: war for the past four years is essentially Ukraine's fault 393 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 3: and proof that Putin is right to resist by arms 394 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:18,640 Speaker 3: any Ukrainian steps toward NATO membership. And this justifies abandoning 395 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,159 Speaker 3: Zelensky now to leave them to face the consequences of 396 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 3: a bad choice. That's pretty good summary of what people 397 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 3: have tried to pitch to us, whether it's through other 398 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 3: media or even emails and that sort of thing. And 399 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 3: as usual, there is a grain of truth to the fraud. 400 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:42,399 Speaker 3: The myth. It started in Ukraine a Pravda or whatever. 401 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 3: A member of Zelenski's own negotiating team said, quote, when 402 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 3: we were turned from istanbul Boris Johnson came to Kiev 403 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 3: and said, we would not sign anything with them at all. 404 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 3: Let's just fight, essentially, because the Russians can't be trusted 405 00:21:56,560 --> 00:22:01,440 Speaker 3: and this doesn't assure your security well. In an interview 406 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:04,679 Speaker 3: with Tucker Carlson last year, Putin brought up the story, 407 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 3: claiming it showed the West and pushed Ukraine further into 408 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 3: the war, and he quoted this guy, But what he 409 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:12,639 Speaker 3: leaves out is the other part of the quote, in 410 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,639 Speaker 3: which the same guy said the Ukrainian delegation had not 411 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 3: planned to sign anything. In any case, we were already 412 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 3: where the Brits said, you know it ought to be. 413 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,400 Speaker 2: We'd come to that conclusion already. 414 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:29,640 Speaker 3: Comments by Victoria Nulin, former State Department official, have also 415 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 3: fed this storyline, although Newland Similarity argues that to Western 416 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 3: skepticism only confirmed what Ukraine had already concluded again to 417 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 3: that point, and then Dan McLachlan writes in The National 418 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,879 Speaker 3: Review as typical of usable myths, there are strains of 419 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 3: truth here, but the myth far outruns the evidence. In fact, 420 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 3: from what we can gather from the public record, While 421 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 3: the talks between the two sides were extensive in early 422 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:56,680 Speaker 3: twenty two, there was never a finally agreed deal between 423 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,880 Speaker 3: Russian and Ukrainian negotiators. The deals on the table would 424 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 3: stripped territory from Ukraine and limited its military and departed 425 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 3: from joining NATO, and the Ukrainians were prepared to agree, 426 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 3: at least in principle to all three of these conditions, 427 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 3: and they negotiated a bunch of other stuff. But the 428 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 3: deal breaker was Russian insistence that any security guarantees given 429 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 3: to Ukraine in exchange for its effective disarmament must be 430 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 3: subject to a veto by Russia itself, So Russia would 431 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 3: be the judge and jury of any security guarantees and 432 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 3: could invade any minute, any time, for any reason. 433 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 2: You'd be crazy to agree to that. Oh yeah, that 434 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:37,919 Speaker 2: would be insane. 435 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,439 Speaker 3: You know, if anybody wants more details, we can go 436 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 3: into more details down the road. But the idea that, yeah, yeah, 437 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 3: Ukraine was ready to come to just this sweet agreement 438 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 3: and we talked him out of it is a myth. 439 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:51,920 Speaker 2: It's potent's propaganda. 440 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 1: Okay, So back in the real world, this think tank 441 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:58,639 Speaker 1: person tweeted out the day, and I thought it was 442 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 1: interesting as to where things are right now. It's useful 443 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: speaking of skeptics like you were just talking about, to 444 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,639 Speaker 1: people who believe that thing. It's useful that the skeptics 445 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: in the American population now see that Ukraine is working 446 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:15,880 Speaker 1: with US negotiators. Trump forced him into it, He's agreeing 447 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 1: with it and is doing its part to end the 448 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 1: war and have a cease fire. Russia is and always 449 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: has been the problem, but now it's going to be 450 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:24,360 Speaker 1: more easily seen by everyone. 451 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 2: That's got to be. 452 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,680 Speaker 1: True, right, And maybe to a certain extent, I don't 453 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 1: know if there's given Trump too much credit or not. 454 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 1: Maybe he figured out a way to bring that crowd 455 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: you were just talking about along for the ride. Was 456 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 1: so hard on Zelensky, so openly, you know, dismissive of 457 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: him and critical of him and everything like that, And 458 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,120 Speaker 1: now that Zelensky's gone along, it's just like, Okay, now 459 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 1: you see he's playing ball with us. 460 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 2: It's all Russia that's stopping this at this point. 461 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 3: I think that is probably excellent analysis. I think Trump, 462 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,919 Speaker 3: who you've got to remember, he's real good at shaping 463 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 3: public perception, like when he wanted to build a giant 464 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 3: golf resort in Ireland or whatever, and people were against 465 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,679 Speaker 3: it at first, and he's very sensitive to Okay, where 466 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 3: are the people, what are they thinking? What do I 467 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 3: have to overcome? And I think, you know, to rephrase 468 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 3: what you said. He said, all right, first thing I 469 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 3: need to do is make it explicitly clear to my 470 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 3: supporters that Ukraine is not playing me in any way. 471 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 3: They're not somehow cleverly duping us out of cash.

One final very quick note on the Ukraine thing 531 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:30,439 Speaker 3: we were just talking about, is the draft agreement that 532 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 3: the Ukrainians rejected. Had Russia and China as the as 533 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 3: two of the Guarran tours, that Russia would not invade, 534 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 3: meaning Russia could veto any assistance given to stop another 535 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 3: Russian invasion, and Ukraine said no way. So yeah, the 536 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 3: US and UK said this is a terrible agreement. They 537 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:52,120 Speaker 3: were already there. 538 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 1: So I'm watching live on cable news. Only Fox has 539 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 1: it these anti Israel protesters that have occupied the bottom 540 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 1: floor of Trump Tower, and now they're all being arrested. 541 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 1: This whole game that we play all over the country 542 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 1: with protesters. So they're all standing there, clapping their hands, 543 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: they've got music playing, they're dancing around, and then one 544 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: by one the cops will come to them and they 545 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 1: turn around and they put their hands behind their back, 546 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 1: and then they zip tie them and then they go 547 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 1: put them in a car. And just how much money 548 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: do taxpayers spend on these the going through the motions 549 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:35,000 Speaker 1: of a pretend to rest and a pretend take them down, 550 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 1: and a pretend book them and all that sort of stuff. 551 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 2: I don't know. 552 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 3: Maybe they're never prosecuted. Just the whole thing is they 553 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 3: are Kamala Harris will pay their fine. 554 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,480 Speaker 1: I never used the term kabuki theater, but this is 555 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 1: it's all such kabuki theory. I mean, the protest is kabuki, 556 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 1: the arrest is kabuki. It's all kabuki. But we're paying 557 00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 1: a lot of money for it, and it's very disruptive. 558 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 1: Is there any way to get around that in a 559 00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 1: country with free speech and right of assembly and all 560 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 1: that sort of stuff. 561 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 2: Less kabuki, more wood shampoos, That's what I say. 562 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 1: I mean they're having that's a party. They're having way 563 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 1: too much fun there as they're getting arrested. I've never 564 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,280 Speaker 1: been arrested in my life, and I always pictured if 565 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 1: I got arrested, it wouldn't have been a pleasant experience. 566 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 1: But they're having a good time. Almost entirely white women 567 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 1: and asexual males as far as I can tell. Yeah, 568 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 1: are they all wearing the terrorist scarf? Not only one 569 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 1: of them were in the Kafia. Some of them have 570 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,800 Speaker 1: COVID masks on. But they're just clapping and playing music. 571 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 1: And then you when it's your turn, you put your 572 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 1: hand behind your back, and then they arrest you and 573 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 1: march you off into a big truck and take you 574 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 1: down and what a waste of time and money. 575 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 3: Here's a crazy idea, and this is why I'm known 576 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 3: as such an extremist. How about we follow the law, 577 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 3: for instance, the laws that say you can't be masked 578 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 3: in a demonstration, Santai clan laws. A lot of cities 579 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 3: had them from the nineteen thirties, I guess twenties and thirties. 580 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 2: Those laws are still on the books. And force them. 581 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 1: Free Mohammed, free them all, is what they're mostly chanting. Yeah, 582 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 1: go ahead, Yeah, all right, good for you, And then 583 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 1: they feel like they're really brave standing up for I'd 584 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: take your free speech concerns, which I have concerns about 585 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 1: that on this case too, but i'd take your free 586 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 1: speech concerns more seriously if you weren't also protesting, you know, 587 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 1: for Hamas before this happened. Yeah, that's the beauty of 588 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 1: these people is they are demonstrating in favor of Islamist 589 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 1: organizations that would beat them, torture them, rape them, heave 590 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: them off the building a building before noon day one 591 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 1: when they were in charge, every damn one of those 592 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:57,720 Speaker 1: linguini armed radical sexless, pale women's study. 593 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 3: Major jack gases.

Just descriptive. I'm an artist, that's true. You're 598 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 1: just describing the scene, and I'm looking at the scene 599 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 1: right now live and that's pretty accurate.
