Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.
Speaker 2: Armstrong and Jettie and now he Armstrong and Yetty.
Speaker 3: Sometimes I have to complain about news coverage in real
Speaker 3: time because I got a head full of steam, and
Speaker 3: I do.
Speaker 2: Right now, it's just watching some News Nation, and.
Speaker 3: I've started watching more of that because I like it,
Speaker 3: because there's not a lot of yelling, or not a
Speaker 3: lot of punditry, although I'm about to comment on some
Speaker 3: other punditry. And I just, I guess get so annoyed
Speaker 3: by news coverage as everybody does, and I imagine many
Speaker 3: of you get, you know, annoyed by our coverage, like
Speaker 3: how can you say that?
Speaker 2: Or you're missing this or whatever. But I just watched
Speaker 2: a guy on News Nation.
Speaker 3: First of all, they were discussing the whole and I
Speaker 3: don't know why this isn't getting more conversation.
Speaker 2: It costs on average seventeen thousand.
Speaker 3: Dollars to boot out an illegal The previous administration allowed
Speaker 3: in the biggest migration in human history, and now with
Speaker 3: most Americans of all parties wanting to get them out,
Speaker 3: we taxpayers have to pay seventeen grand per person on
Speaker 3: average to get him out.
Speaker 2: That should be an outrageous scandal.
Speaker 4: There should be trials and executioner.
Speaker 1: Yeah, for those who perpetray to that, think about if
Speaker 1: you think about it purely monetarily speaking, that is an
Speaker 1: enormous crime against the people of the United States. God,
Speaker 1: not to mention the human costs and the crime and
Speaker 1: the denial of services to kids who have a legal
Speaker 1: right to be in the country because there's just not
Speaker 1: enough money to go around. The enormity of the crime
Speaker 1: can hardly be described.
Speaker 5: Well.
Speaker 3: The political price that the Democratic Party ought to have
Speaker 3: to pay for this, just on a political level, that
Speaker 3: nobody wanted this in any party. You let it happen,
Speaker 3: and now we're on the hook for seventeen grand per
Speaker 3: to get them kicked out. That's insane. But anyway, that's
Speaker 3: not even the topic I wanted to bring up. The
Speaker 3: guy on there doing his analysis you're talking about trying
Speaker 3: to find consistency in the Trump administration is difficult. For instance,
Speaker 3: Doge who wants to make cutbacks on government spending and
Speaker 3: Trump announcing that he wants to spend what will cost
Speaker 3: billions of dollars to overhaul the air traffic system, which
Speaker 3: they're going to announce on Thursday. So looking for consistency
Speaker 3: is difficult.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, I want to go on.
Speaker 3: I want to go to his home freaking moren Yes,
Speaker 3: I want to go to your home and drag you
Speaker 3: out by your perfect tear and ask you to explain
Speaker 3: to me. Do you actually not understand what you just did?
Speaker 3: Or are you actually that stupid or are you ah
Speaker 3: That sort of thing makes me nuts.
Speaker 4: That is one of the most stupid things I've ever
Speaker 4: heard in my life.
Speaker 3: That's always the issue we're up against as fiscal conservatives. Yes,
Speaker 3: we believe the government does have a role in doing
Speaker 3: certain things as efficiently as possible. You Molron, we need
Speaker 3: to update our air traffic control system. We've been talking
Speaker 3: about it all day. Everybody knows that that's not the
Speaker 3: same as eliminating.
Speaker 2: Waste fraud in a produce.
Speaker 3: That's not an inconsistency, there's no, there's zero inconsistency there.
Speaker 2: It makes me nuts that they act like there is.
Speaker 1: Imagine being intelligent or at least smooth enough that you
Speaker 1: would get a gig like he has, and yet you're
Speaker 1: that stupid I've been up against astonishing.
Speaker 3: We who think this way have been up against this
Speaker 3: argument forever and always are.
Speaker 2: It just drives me crazy. Oh so spending years? Okay, yes, yes,
Speaker 2: that's right.
Speaker 4: That's how you live your life.
Speaker 1: Right, do people criticize You've said you need to cut
Speaker 1: back on your budget, but you're in favor of getting
Speaker 1: Johnny his heart surgery.
Speaker 4: I thought you wanted to cut back.
Speaker 2: I want to beat you with both my fists.
Speaker 1: I know that makes not be a productive or moral
Speaker 1: thing to do, and I will not do it, but
Speaker 1: I would like to.
Speaker 4: Oh god, how I'd like to.
Speaker 1: It makes me nuts, I know, I know it seriously
Speaker 1: is u and again I abhor all political violence.
Speaker 2: But as.
Speaker 1: H. L. Menk And the Great the Genius of Baltimore
Speaker 1: once said, there comes a time in every man's life
Speaker 1: when he just wants to raise the black flag and
Speaker 1: starts slitting throats. And uh yeah, yeah, but of course
Speaker 1: we don't because we're saying in humane people. Speaking of leadership,
Speaker 1: This is so interesting. What is going on with the
Speaker 1: Gentermans A couple of different things. Do you know how
Speaker 1: parliamentary system works? You have your local elections and if
Speaker 1: party a wins the most seats, they get to quote
Speaker 1: unquote quote unquote form a government if they want a
Speaker 1: majority of the seats. Party A is in charge and
Speaker 1: back up be which is, we got some stuff we're
Speaker 1: gonna do. If Party A merely gets a plurality, say
Speaker 1: thirty eight percent of the seats, but they're the big dog,
Speaker 1: they've got to find somebody else to join with them
Speaker 1: to get over fifty percent. That's called quote unquote forming
Speaker 1: a government. Okay, so you got your kind of center
Speaker 1: right ish party run by Friedrich Martz over there, old
Speaker 1: fred Mertz, and they secured enough support in the parliament
Speaker 1: to be confirmed as the big dog, and he becomes
Speaker 1: the chancellor.
Speaker 4: It's like a it's the head guy anyway.
Speaker 1: Then you have this symbolic vote where the two parties
Speaker 1: sometimes it can be more than two, but the two
Speaker 1: parties that formed the government they get together and they
Speaker 1: vote and they say, yes, we're in favor of this
Speaker 1: being the government.
Speaker 4: And all the press is.
Speaker 1: There, and the old chancellor like Ungela Merkel moron not
Speaker 1: a moron, incredibly unwise is there, and the press is
Speaker 1: at the the office where they're going to get the
Speaker 1: official seal, and swearing in and blah blah blah. Everybody's ready,
Speaker 1: except somehow the vote is defeated. Like a dozen members
Speaker 1: of the coalition that had come together to form the
Speaker 1: government said, you know, now that I think about it,
Speaker 1: I don't think this is a good idea and.
Speaker 2: Voted against it.
Speaker 1: And the vote totals came in and everybody's like, wait what,
Speaker 1: And so now nobody knows quite what to do. There
Speaker 1: are you know, systems they have in place, and it's
Speaker 1: kind of complicated, but nobody knows who voted against it
Speaker 1: or why they voted against it. It's never happened before,
Speaker 1: so that now they don't know what the government is
Speaker 1: and they've got to go through these various you know,
Speaker 1: somersaults and backflips to try again and maybe a third
Speaker 1: time with a completely new vote, just go back to
Speaker 1: the people.
Speaker 3: So I don't followed German politics as closely as I
Speaker 3: probably should because it's pretty darn interesting. But what happened
Speaker 3: the other day with the declaring the AfD party as
Speaker 3: a terrorist organization and now the rest of the German
Speaker 3: government has the ability to like tap their phones and
Speaker 3: read their emails in all kinds of different side. Yes,
Speaker 3: as they have been growing in power over the years.
Speaker 3: Not to quibble exactly.
Speaker 1: Extremist is a better translation of what they're declared, just
Speaker 1: you know, because that matters, because it makes me insane.
Speaker 1: They are politically out there on the right in some things,
Speaker 1: but the Communists are.
Speaker 4: Not considered an extremist organization.
Speaker 1: Oh, pretty familiar with communism in the twentieth century killed
Speaker 1: I don't know, one hundred million people minimum, So that's interesting.
Speaker 3: I saw one translation where they said terrorist, but you're
Speaker 3: saying extremist.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 3: Regardless the designation of the AfD party, this is the
Speaker 3: party that JD. Vance went over and met with the guy.
Speaker 3: Remember that that caused a little dust up for a while.
Speaker 3: This designation means that law enforcement officials can use informants,
Speaker 3: audio recordings, and video footage to monitor the party's activities.
Speaker 3: The AfD was labeled extremists last week over it's anti
Speaker 3: migrant and anti refugee stances, which a lot of people
Speaker 3: have in that country and lots of Europe and a
Speaker 3: lot of people in this country because of the completely
Speaker 3: out of control immigration which we were talking about just
Speaker 3: a little bit ago. So you know, where you cross
Speaker 3: the line into extremists versus Hey, there's too many people
Speaker 3: from somewhere else here.
Speaker 2: I don't like it. I don't know now.
Speaker 3: I do point out this is from a couple of
Speaker 3: months ago, but I remember Brit Hume tweeted this out.
Speaker 3: Despite what you've heard from Elon Musk and jd Vance,
Speaker 3: the AfD is an anti American pro Russian party. Some
Speaker 3: eighty percent of German voters, including the twenty nine percent
Speaker 3: who chose mister Mertz, don't support the AfD. The pro
Speaker 3: American mister Mertz could use us support. So Brett Hume
Speaker 3: was not down with the You know, they're the good.
Speaker 2: Guys in any way.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I've studied this more than you want
Speaker 1: to hear about the AfD. They've mostly been branded an
Speaker 1: extremist organization because they used to especially be if you
Speaker 1: were like soft on neo Nazis or an actual neo Nazi,
Speaker 1: there was a place for you there in the AfD.
Speaker 1: They've since like Marine le Penz Party in France, they've
Speaker 1: reformed themselves and the new leader of it, this gal
Speaker 1: what's her name doesn't matter, says, you know, we're a
Speaker 1: big party. We've got many, many, many, many thousands of people.
Speaker 1: Are there some Nazi wackadoodles in our party? Yeah, they're
Speaker 1: wackeddools everywhere on earth, But no, that's not our stance.
Speaker 1: The very sympathetic toward Russia thing is absolutely true. But
Speaker 1: I think you're in Germany you have to understand if
Speaker 1: you don't already, they are so guilt stricken and paranoid
Speaker 1: over ever coming off like the have any Nazis gaining
Speaker 1: any influence, that they go way overboard in my opinion,
Speaker 1: especially now all these years later, and so if anything
Speaker 1: stinks at all of the right wing they go crazy
Speaker 1: about it, whereas extremists on the left wing they're like, no,
Speaker 1: you're fine, we just defined the democracy will take care
Speaker 1: of you.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I find that pretty interesting, the idea of you can
Speaker 3: be a communist and they're not reading your emails and
Speaker 3: tapping your phones, but if you're to the right using
Speaker 3: my finger quotes, because I'm starting to get confused about
Speaker 3: what's right.
Speaker 1: And left horseshoe principle all day long. Man, But okay, so,
Speaker 1: and apologies to those who've heard this screen before, but
Speaker 1: I think it's important in Germany. If you're listening, listen
Speaker 1: to me carefully. If you have a situation and it
Speaker 1: was true of Americans, average Americans attitudes about rampant to
Speaker 1: legal immigration too. We are called racists and xenophobes, or
Speaker 1: nationalists are whatever. I am a nationalist and proudly so.
Speaker 1: I'd be happy to explain it if you have any questions.
Speaker 1: But if you brand any German who says, hey, our
Speaker 1: culture is changing, our cities are changing. I didn't vote
Speaker 1: for this immigration. The powers that be just decided they
Speaker 1: wanted it. I hate this, I don't want it. If
Speaker 1: you force those people into the AfD because they're the
Speaker 1: only party that will welcome them and their beliefs, you're making.
Speaker 4: Extremists of people.
Speaker 1: And then you say, well we're not going to have
Speaker 1: the AfD party because they're extremists. We're going to survey
Speaker 1: them or whatever. You've just you've shoved all those normal
Speaker 1: people over there. How about you just let democracy work
Speaker 1: and you let a party form up and be what
Speaker 1: it is, and if people vote for it, you got
Speaker 1: to live with it. Stop, you know, employing the heavy
Speaker 1: hand of well it's a democracy within these parameters ever works,
Speaker 1: You're forcing people into extremism.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this will be interesting to watch how this turns out.
Speaker 3: Because the voice of the people in the United States,
Speaker 3: Germany and lots of different places are speaking loudly. We
Speaker 3: don't like this much immigration. Yeah, we didn't vote for this,
Speaker 3: we never wanted it. Right, and how that's gonna result,
Speaker 3: I do not know more on the ways to hear.
Speaker 4: Armstrong quick story.
Speaker 6: I'm a niece eleven years old loves dolls. I was
Speaker 6: going to get her twenty or thirty of them for
Speaker 6: her birthday, just to see the joy of a child.
Speaker 4: You can't put a price tag on that.
Speaker 6: It gives me great solace anyway, Like I said, I'm
Speaker 6: not trying to take these interviews personally.
Speaker 5: I think they can have three dollars or four dollars.
Speaker 6: Sure, she could have a small tea party with the dolls,
Speaker 6: but her dream had been a quasi realistic conclave re
Speaker 6: enactment with.
Speaker 2: What she wanted.
Speaker 3: Everybody has been somewhat confused by the they don't need
Speaker 3: thirty dollars comment from Trump.
Speaker 2: I don't know exactly sure what that was about.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I see his point, but and look, we'll forget
Speaker 1: about all this soon.
Speaker 4: Sure, not gonna pretend it's a big deal.
Speaker 1: But this guy's like made his entire life gilded, gold plated,
Speaker 1: gaudy luxury excess.
Speaker 4: I mean that's been his thing for like forty.
Speaker 2: Years, including now, have you seen the new plane?
Speaker 7: No?
Speaker 3: Yeah, the new air Force one plane. Man, he did
Speaker 3: that little tour of that on Friday. I think it
Speaker 3: looks like like Trump Tower inside the plane.
Speaker 1: Now, hey, at risk of turning this serious, I was
Speaker 1: just reading about Boeing has screwed up so much, so
Speaker 1: many problems in getting the new air Force one ready.
Speaker 1: It's years overdue and zillions of dollars over budget.
Speaker 4: I don't have the figures in front of me.
Speaker 1: Trump finally went to an airline refurbisher, airplane refurbisher and
Speaker 1: said that Katari government jet referb that one for me.
Speaker 4: We'll use it until Boeing's done.
Speaker 1: And both Biden and Trump have tried to cancel the
Speaker 1: contract with Boeing because it's so messed up. Man, that's
Speaker 1: a great American corporation that's just struggling. Anyway, back to
Speaker 1: how many dolls you need and whether the King of
Speaker 1: gold Plating.
Speaker 4: Ought to be lecturing us on it or pencils.
Speaker 3: How many dolls or pencils you should need what interesting examples?
Speaker 3: Stephen Colbert had this joke, which is really more about
Speaker 3: parenting than go ahead.
Speaker 8: The crazy continued on Air Force One when Trump doubled
Speaker 8: down on the dollies.
Speaker 2: Fifteen year old ago, does it need thirty seven dollars?
Speaker 2: She could be very happy with two or three or
Speaker 2: four or five, buddy.
Speaker 8: A fifteen year old girl is not going to be
Speaker 8: happy with two or three or four or five dollars,
Speaker 8: because a fifteen year old girl isn't happy with anything.
Speaker 4: Who may your children?
Speaker 8: Hey kiddo, Uh, you want to come down for dinner?
Speaker 8: Are you still mad that we asked you how your
Speaker 8: day was?
Speaker 4: Okay?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: The recognition by people who have lived through that at
Speaker 3: is pretty funny. God, I am in that situation now,
Speaker 3: and as you tell me, girls are like exponentially further
Speaker 3: down that road than boys, but just with a layer.
Speaker 4: Of complicated on top of ya.
Speaker 3: Wow, I can't even imagine it, because just like when
Speaker 3: I pick up my son from school, it's just like
Speaker 3: I want to get a conversation going, and there's just
Speaker 3: there's just nothing there nothing.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: And I was sitting it was sitting outside the other
Speaker 3: day at the parking lot, until all the girls are
Speaker 3: coming out, mostly in pairs talking. I mean, it's the
Speaker 3: Bruce Springsteen song. The girls comb their hair and rearview
Speaker 3: mirrors and the boys try to look so hard. So
Speaker 3: the girls come out and they're kind of smiling and
Speaker 3: laughing whatever amongst themselves before they get in their parents'
Speaker 3: car and turn angry apparently and sullen. But uh oh yes,
Speaker 3: but all the boys walking out solo with their hard strut, hard.
Speaker 2: Face, looking tough and cool, and you know, how was
Speaker 2: your day? Okay, what'd you do? All right?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 1: You know, I'm so grateful my dad and I had
Speaker 1: baseball and golf. We could always connect on sports anyway.
Speaker 1: And at the risk of turning this overly serious, and
Speaker 1: I won't, I swear I won't. People who take that
Speaker 1: time of confusion and desperate need for identity and exploit
Speaker 1: it for political or ideological purposes. They try to get
Speaker 1: them while they're young and confused. I despise you for that,
Speaker 1: like the radical gender lunatics or the trying to turn
Speaker 1: them into woke warriors in high.
Speaker 4: School and college. Man, they are heartless.
Speaker 3: That age group is easy pickens for an ideology, no doubt.
Speaker 4: It's like selling them drugs.
Speaker 1: It is the last thing any moral human beings should
Speaker 1: do at that age.
Speaker 4: Armstrong and Geeddy.
Speaker 2: Donald J.
Speaker 1: Trump, the President of the United States, has been meeting
Speaker 1: with the new Canadian Prime minister name of Carney, and
Speaker 1: they're doing the grip and grin and the brief statements
Speaker 1: that we're all used to.
Speaker 4: Here's how some of it went.
Speaker 5: I think that there are tremendous benefits to the Canadian citizens,
Speaker 5: tremendously lower taxes, free military.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I didn't realize saying on Michael, he was
Speaker 1: asked about are you still talking about Canada becoming the
Speaker 1: fifty first state in.
Speaker 2: Front of the new prime minister, Oh, sitting right next
Speaker 2: to him.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, Okay.
Speaker 5: Here's how what I think that there are tremendous benefits
Speaker 5: to the Canadian citizens, tremendously lower taxes, free military, which honestly,
Speaker 5: we give you essentially anyway because we're protecting.
Speaker 4: Canada if you have had a problem.
Speaker 5: But I think you know it's it would really be
Speaker 5: a wonderful marriage because it's it's two places. They get
Speaker 5: along very well, they like each other a lot.
Speaker 3: Well.
Speaker 9: If I'm a as you know from real estate. There
Speaker 9: are some places that are never for sale.
Speaker 4: We're sitting in one right now. You know, Buckingham Palace.
Speaker 4: You visit it as well.
Speaker 9: Yes, And having met with the owners of Canada over
Speaker 9: the course of the campaign last several months, it's not
Speaker 9: for sale. Won't be for sale ever.
Speaker 3: Well, that was a good response. He was ready to
Speaker 3: go on that one. That was that was pretty good.
Speaker 1: The upgrade from panti waste Trudeau to Carney reminds me
Speaker 1: of the upgrade from Kamala Harris to JD Vance in
Speaker 1: terms of smarts and capability. Huge upgrade. Well, go on,
Speaker 1: he went on in similar eligent fashion.
Speaker 9: The opportunity is in the partnership and what we can
Speaker 9: build together, and we have done that in the past.
Speaker 9: And part of that, as the President just said, is
Speaker 9: with respect to our own security, and my government is
Speaker 9: committed for a step change in our investment.
Speaker 4: In Canadian security and our partnership.
Speaker 9: And I'll say this as well, that the President has
Speaker 9: revitalized international security, revitalized NATO and US playing our full
Speaker 9: weight in NATO and that will be parts.
Speaker 3: Boy did he handle that well, what a smart way
Speaker 3: to go about it. I mean, his thing about the
Speaker 3: owners have decided that it's not for sale, and so
Speaker 3: he didn't make it about me against you, because you know,
Speaker 3: Trump really doesn't like the Mono Amano. You know, sure
Speaker 3: challenge making it about the voters, and that was very
Speaker 3: well handled by him.
Speaker 2: I also think, and I don't know anything.
Speaker 3: But the various super smart people who are saying this
Speaker 3: is the damage that has been done between these two countries.
Speaker 4: I think it's I don't think it'll be over in a blip.
Speaker 2: I think so.
Speaker 1: I hope the Canadian people have a sense of humor
Speaker 1: enough about it that they realize that they were trolled.
Speaker 2: I don't see long term samad here. I just that
Speaker 2: just seems ridiculous to me.
Speaker 4: No, I would agree.
Speaker 1: And if it settles down to like more Canadian pride
Speaker 1: and more interest in them defending themselves like Carti's talking
Speaker 1: about and being a little less of our you know,
Speaker 1: slightly flabby, unemployable son.
Speaker 4: But that's not a bad thing.
Speaker 1: Well.
Speaker 4: I love Canada and I love Canadians.
Speaker 3: We're all gonna be a war at war against Iran
Speaker 3: or China here. Before you know it, we'll all get
Speaker 3: together and forget these stupid.
Speaker 1: Thanks Iran and China and Russia. Yeah, you're absolutely right.
Speaker 1: It's a good point. So this is kind of a
Speaker 1: funny twist. Alberta, it's kind of out west, enormous geographically,
Speaker 1: it's one of the provinces of Canada. The Premiere of
Speaker 1: Alberta kind of like the government governor rather said that
Speaker 1: Alberta's going to hold a referendum next year that could
Speaker 1: include a vote on whether to separate from Canada.
Speaker 3: So Calgary's in Alberta, right, correct, all that stuff that
Speaker 3: I've driven across, that's Elberta. Okay, Yeah, that's very usc
Speaker 3: that's very Western United States.
Speaker 1: Yes, Midwest to great plains in its fields. Yeah, not
Speaker 1: like West coast, but like the same part of the
Speaker 1: the you know, great place. Oh, which reminds me Detroit,
Speaker 1: not Detroit. Denver has lost its effing mind. I want
Speaker 1: to talk about that another time, probably on tomorrow's show.
Speaker 1: It's the Pot. I think the Pot and the altitude.
Speaker 1: They've lost their freaking minds. They've gone. They're like left
Speaker 1: of San Francisco in Denver. Now, I know, I'm shaking
Speaker 1: my head sadly, and so is Jack.
Speaker 3: I grew up out that direction Western Kansas, actually closer
Speaker 3: to Denver than any other place as a city.
Speaker 2: And that's not the way it used to be at all.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, I know.
Speaker 1: So anyway, back to Alberta. So the premier, Danielle Smith,
Speaker 1: that's right, there's a.
Speaker 4: Girl in charge.
Speaker 1: She doesn't support separation of right, but she said on
Speaker 1: her the government website and her Facebook page that if
Speaker 1: citizens gather enough signatures then the question of Alberta separation
Speaker 1: could be part of the twenty twenty six ballot quote
Speaker 1: our government will respect a democratic process. Her remarks are
Speaker 1: the latest salvo from Alberta, which is oil and gas
Speaker 1: and agriculture and hardworking, self reliant people and they're being dominated.
Speaker 1: See if this sounds familiar to you Californians, Oregonians, Washington
Speaker 1: Staters who you know, You've got these vast swaths of great,
Speaker 1: hardworking red district folks being dominated by the coastal elite
Speaker 1: in a few cities. Anyway, the Albertans are really frustrated
Speaker 1: with liberal environmental policy, which is like California's. It's similar
Speaker 1: in its level of green religion insanity to California, and
Speaker 1: they claim it's thwarted the province's economic outlook. Yeah, I've
Speaker 1: been and I could go into the particular spid you
Speaker 1: can figure it out.
Speaker 3: I've done that part of Canada and gone up to
Speaker 3: Calgary and then driven all the way across Banfall the
Speaker 3: way over to a Vancouver and everything like that, and
Speaker 3: it feels like wyoming in Montana and that sort of thing.
Speaker 3: And I doubt they have much interest in what the
Speaker 3: people of Toronto and Montreal think about anything.
Speaker 1: Right, an idiotic sexist jokes. Aside, Danielle Smith seems to
Speaker 1: be the great great great granddaughter of Thomas Jefferson.
Speaker 4: Listen to this, would you?
Speaker 1: She warned policymakers in Ottawa that's the capitol, that the
Speaker 1: province would no longer tolerate.
Speaker 4: Quote hostile acts from.
Speaker 1: Ottawa, and she reiterated it in a big Monday speech
Speaker 1: to Alberton's quote, these attacks on our province by our
Speaker 1: federal government have been unbearable. This is why a large
Speaker 1: majority of Albertan's are so deeply frustrated with the results
Speaker 1: of last week's federal election. That's the Liberals who won,
Speaker 1: partly because Trump was trolling them. She said she had
Speaker 1: a good call with Prime Minister Mark Carney, but quote,
Speaker 1: until I see tangible proof of real change. Alberta will
Speaker 1: be taking steps to better protect ourselves from Ottawa. Man,
Speaker 1: that's seventeen seventy four rhetoric. Awesome, Yeah, that's crazy. Good
Speaker 1: for them, though, good for them, There are a couple
Speaker 1: of areas in which the lefty environmental nut job lobby
Speaker 1: and their idiotic plans have been completely upended. Did you
Speaker 1: know there was a huge vote in Congress the other
Speaker 1: day our Congress to get rid of the big exemption
Speaker 1: for California's ev mandates, which had been adopted by like
Speaker 1: twenty states including I think it was thirty five or something.
Speaker 1: Democrats voted with the Republicans. Hey, this evy fantasy where
Speaker 1: like by the year twenty thirty five it has to
Speaker 1: be two thirds of cars or whatever.
Speaker 4: No, this is crackpot. We're getting rid of it.
Speaker 1: Big vote in Congress cut no attention in the mainstream media.
Speaker 4: None. Well, gee, I wonder why.
Speaker 2: Yeah, a different story.
Speaker 3: We have an update on the rolling theme of your
Speaker 3: fifteen year old having thirty dollars. I feel like if
Speaker 3: you gave your fifteen year old daughter thirty dollars for Christmas,
Speaker 3: she would just stand there with her mouth open, wondering
Speaker 3: what in the world is going.
Speaker 4: Over it in this scenario? Does she already have twenty seven?
Speaker 3: I don't get her doll all. I don't want a
Speaker 3: doll at all. I'm fifteen years old and you just
Speaker 3: gave me thirty dollars. I don't know what's happening here?
Speaker 2: Are you? My family is happening? Uncall. But Mattel says.
Speaker 3: That toy manufacturing is not going to come back to America.
Speaker 3: Price hikes are going to be their answer, So your
Speaker 3: thirty dollars will get more expensive.
Speaker 2: I don't know about your pencils.
Speaker 3: Luckily, I'm pretty well stocked for pencils, since I use
Speaker 3: one every five years.
Speaker 2: If it's the only thing near my hand when I
Speaker 2: need to write.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, pencils and dolls.
Speaker 2: You know what I do.
Speaker 3: Are you familiar with the tactical pens? I got one
Speaker 3: of these the other day. I don't know when or
Speaker 3: where I'm gonna carry it, but I think.
Speaker 4: I've seen an ad But what are they?
Speaker 2: They're an ink pen.
Speaker 3: They look like basically like a big ballpoint pen, but
Speaker 3: they're made of Usually it's titanium or something incredibly strong,
Speaker 3: fairly sharp on the end. Yeah, and it's basically a weapon,
Speaker 3: and it's a way for you to have a weapon
Speaker 3: with you all the time. I don't know if you
Speaker 3: could get it on a plane or not, because I've
Speaker 3: taken pens on planes, so I don't know if that
Speaker 3: in your bag would be like, But I mean it's
Speaker 3: a weapon. I mean if I was on a.
Speaker 1: Fight, why don't you talk about this off the air
Speaker 1: and not like screw it up?
Speaker 3: If I was in a fight, I'd sure rather be
Speaker 3: in a fight with one of those in my hand
Speaker 3: than not. Yeah, they're called tactical pins, and they're kind
Speaker 3: of expensive, like they range from forty to one hundred
Speaker 3: and fifty bucks depending on the brand, But they are
Speaker 3: a freaking weapon and a lot of people carry them.
Speaker 4: You bring that thing up up from below right into
Speaker 4: the gullet fight?
Speaker 2: How are you? How are you entering the gullet from
Speaker 2: below where you.
Speaker 4: Come alone from the under the jewl line?
Speaker 3: Oh, I thought you were going lower like down. I
Speaker 3: thought you were talking about the five hole what I
Speaker 3: didn't know what you're not?
Speaker 1: You're ranked them the gullet. Okay, well, I tell you what.
Speaker 1: You stick it in either place, the fight is really
Speaker 1: going to change in tenor right.
Speaker 2: It's to your advantage. Yeah, you'll surprise them.
Speaker 4: If nothing else, we.
Speaker 3: Will finish strong next.
Speaker 7: Because the business news and CEO of Zen is now
Speaker 7: arguing that nicotine has misunderstood and has cognitive benefits. Hey,
Speaker 7: every time my TC guys spitting in the street, I think, oh,
Speaker 7: that's a beautiful mind.
Speaker 3: So I've long wondered where I rank in terms of
Speaker 3: competent adults. I now know I rank in the bottom
Speaker 3: twenty percent in the United States of America because as
Speaker 3: of tomorrow, I will be with the twenty percent of
Speaker 3: us that can no longer fly because I, despite warnings
Speaker 3: for a quarter of a century, did not get my
Speaker 3: real idea in time.
Speaker 2: And I did download.
Speaker 3: My documents the other day, and I have an appointment,
Speaker 3: so next week I think I'll be able to get it.
Speaker 3: But for the first time in my life, you know,
Speaker 3: I don't need to fly anywhere, but it sure would
Speaker 3: be horrible if God forbid, something happened with my parents
Speaker 3: or something like that, and I actually can't fly back
Speaker 3: because I didn't do the stuff that eighty percent of
Speaker 3: competent adults did to make sure that they got this
Speaker 3: done on time. Now you can't fly if you without
Speaker 3: the real idea starting tomorrow, if you have an active passport,
Speaker 3: which I do not, or tribal identification, hey, how are you?
Speaker 2: Which I don't have either.
Speaker 3: So when you start one, I'm on I should start
Speaker 3: a tribe.
Speaker 2: That's it.
Speaker 3: I'm one of the few pathetic grown ups who didn't
Speaker 3: get this done in time and can't fly.
Speaker 1: But a couple of things. Number one, why are you
Speaker 1: soft on al Qaeda? And nine to eleven?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 1: This is a response to that in fall of two
Speaker 1: thousand and one.
Speaker 3: Yes, the nine eleven, the nine to eleven commission has
Speaker 3: happened before many of you.
Speaker 4: Were born, most of whom have passed on and are
Speaker 4: with God.
Speaker 3: Now, yes, signed this in the law in two thousand
Speaker 3: and five, but it says here implementation has been repeatedly delayed.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd say so. Boy.
Speaker 1: The worst thing you could possibly do to for you,
Speaker 1: or for me for that matter, is to say, hey,
Speaker 1: I need this done.
Speaker 4: You have fit fifteen weeks, right, forget it.
Speaker 3: You tell me it's got tomorrow, I'll get it done.
Speaker 3: You tell me I got two years, you got three days.
Speaker 3: I'm getting to work, But yeah, you get tell me
Speaker 3: I got years, not a chance I even think about it.
Speaker 3: But here's why I liked in downloading the documents for
Speaker 3: the real idea. Maybe something you had so it had
Speaker 3: to have my first, middle and last name, and you
Speaker 3: got to prove where you live and everything like that
Speaker 3: with energy bills or leases or whatever. And I don't
Speaker 3: have much stuff that includes my middle name. Usually my
Speaker 3: first and last name, maybe my initial, but not very
Speaker 3: often my middle name. So scrambling it because again because
Speaker 3: I might be in al Qaeda.
Speaker 2: If you don't have an energy bill that has.
Speaker 3: My full middle name byron instead of just the letter B,
Speaker 3: it's quite possible I'm in al Qaidas, so thank god
Speaker 3: I will be flying anytime soon.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, that's what they taught their operatives.
Speaker 1: So although Sama bin Laden, he'd say, for God's sake,
Speaker 1: for the sake of Alla, do not use your middle
Speaker 1: name in documents.
Speaker 4: That's how we will keep secret.
Speaker 3: It's on me. I should I've gotten this done. I
Speaker 3: am again. I'm in the bottom twenty percent. Eighty percent
Speaker 3: of you figured it out, but it is kind of
Speaker 3: hilarious that to stop nine to eleven, I'm scrambling to
Speaker 3: come up with an energy bill that includes my middle name.
Speaker 2: It just seems kind of stupid.
Speaker 1: And we let twelve to fifteen million people into the
Speaker 1: country anonymously recently, and until very recently, those people could
Speaker 1: fly without.
Speaker 4: Any idea whatsoever. I know.
Speaker 1: It's it's the stuff of Kafka what's his name, the
Speaker 1: Gulag archipelago fella.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's it's it's something.
Speaker 3: It sulls an edson and the fact that and the
Speaker 3: fact that it doesn't get remarked upon.
Speaker 2: This was a reaction to nine to eleven.
Speaker 3: And this is how the government, the all powerful federal government,
Speaker 3: in a reaction to one of the great events in
Speaker 3: our history. A quarter of essentially later, you have a
Speaker 3: slightly for an idds.
Speaker 2: That has your middle name.
Speaker 4: Where do your loyalties lie, sir?
Speaker 2: Oh my god.
Speaker 3: This is why our air traffic control system looks like
Speaker 3: it does.
Speaker 2: This sort of thing.
Speaker 1: As George Bush said from atop the rubble, I hear
Speaker 1: all of you, and within twenty three twenty four years,
Speaker 1: we'll have IDs and they'll see him from all of us.
Speaker 2: No, he never said that, because that would make him
Speaker 2: an idiot. I know.
Speaker 3: I think my best bet is to get some sort
Speaker 3: of tribal identification going, what would you like to be?
Speaker 4: Crow?
Speaker 1: So you got to pick some little obscure tribe and
Speaker 1: call them up and say, hey, guys, look, with all
Speaker 1: due respect to your heritage, your ancestors, here's five K.
Speaker 1: Would you fill out some PaperWorks it says I'm part
Speaker 1: of your tribe. I gotta get this damn real idea.
Speaker 2: I want to fly to Vegas this weekend, so I'm
Speaker 2: forgetl being.
Speaker 4: An honorary whatever you folks are.
Speaker 3: How do you pronounce that I'm from South Dakota. I
Speaker 3: got to tie in with some tribe. They can't figured
Speaker 3: it right.
Speaker 2: Right, it's final neways, so well your comments.
Speaker 4: And us, yes, closure for the show. That's good stuff
Speaker 4: right there, it's beautiful.
Speaker 2: Here's your os for fine thoughts, Joe getting Let's get a.
Speaker 1: Final thought from everybody on the crew to wrap up
Speaker 1: the show for the day. Technical director Michaelangelo back in
Speaker 1: the saddle today, Michael, welcome back.
Speaker 4: What's your final thought?
Speaker 10: Yeah, yesterday I was at the ocean and saw a
Speaker 10: lot of people standing on those rocks, you know, and
Speaker 10: you just keep thinking of people dying selfies, and I
Speaker 10: kept pointing to my wife, telling my wife and said,
Speaker 10: this is it. Keep watching over there, Watch that person
Speaker 10: is going to disappear. Nobody did, but I thought for
Speaker 10: sure I was gonna see something happen.
Speaker 2: I'm been disappointing for you.
Speaker 4: Yeah, too bad. Sorry, vacation's ruined.
Speaker 2: Jack.
Speaker 4: What's your final thought?
Speaker 3: There is a sickness out there that apparently takes six
Speaker 3: to seven weeks to get old.
Speaker 2: So I'm a month in tomorrow. That means I got
Speaker 2: two to three weeks left to this. That's fun.
Speaker 1: Oh boy, my final thought didn't get to this today.
Speaker 1: I got a couple of examples of it. But I
Speaker 1: haven't said this for a long time.
Speaker 2: And all DEI.
Speaker 1: Programs wherever they exist, immediately, in academia, in industry, in government,
Speaker 1: they're racist, they're neo Marxist, they're not what they claim
Speaker 1: to be.

Speaker 2: And Getty wrapping them another grueling four hour workday.

Speaker 2: annoying than usual.
Speaker 4: Are you whatever? One final message?
Speaker 2: I thought you were talking about the fire hole, what
Speaker 2: the gullet?
