1 00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:14,800 Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 2 00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:19,520 Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe, Katty Armstrong and 3 00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 1: Jetty and he. 4 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:35,839 Speaker 2: Armsrong live from the studio scene Slay Sor. 5 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:39,000 Speaker 1: It's midweek. We're in a dimly lit room deep with 6 00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:42,120 Speaker 1: on the bowels of the Armstrong and Getty Communications compound. 7 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 1: Today we are under the tutelage of our general manager. 8 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,839 Speaker 1: The atomic bomb is our general manager? Who it is? 9 00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 1: That's a rough one at serious times. August sixth, eighty 10 00:00:55,600 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: years ago, we dropped it on Japan. It off? Will 11 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:02,319 Speaker 1: YOUA We were saying to of them, knock it off, 12 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 1: will you? But they wouldn't knock it off? Yeah, not 13 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:10,320 Speaker 1: to turn the opening segment overly serious, but you're a screege. 14 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 1: Yesterday if you missed it, grabbed the podcast Armstrong and 15 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:15,680 Speaker 1: getting on demand About the rating you've been doing about 16 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 1: the war in the Pacific and the bigger context of 17 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 1: the dropping of the bomb. I found very interesting and 18 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 1: did a little more rating myself. And yeah, the the 19 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 1: body count generated by Japan across Asia was mind boggling. 20 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 1: Why is it not talked about? Imperial Japan was a 21 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 1: human slaughtering machine that devoured tens of millions, and they 22 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 1: had to be stopped, and they believed as one of 23 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: the most racist groups of people that have ever lived. 24 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: They believed they were the only people that should live 25 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 1: and were superior to all those or everyone should else 26 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 1: be enslaved. The right, they were killing the depth total 27 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: per day at the time we dropped the bomb eighty 28 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: years ago to day, I forget it was, but something 29 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 1: like seven fourteen thousand something like that people a day 30 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,359 Speaker 1: were dying at the hands of the Japanese and various 31 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: conflicts in countries in other countries, right, right, And as 32 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: you were talking about yesterday, the Howard Zinnen like change 33 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: in the narrative which happened when we were kids, that 34 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: we shouldn't have dropped the bombs. It was immoral and 35 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: indefensible and buy in America is a bad country and 36 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: you should hate your country, blah blah blah, because it's 37 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: all part of the same thing. What it takes to 38 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 1: get to that conclusion is you've just kind of isolate 39 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: the conflict in Japan versus the US, right, and those 40 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 1: casualties even in the even to me, that analysis doesn't 41 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: make any sense, but you've got to ignore the unspeakable 42 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: horror of the Japanese war machine. And it's just it's 43 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 1: another false narrative pushed by the global far left to 44 00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 1: try to bring down the big dog for free markets 45 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,799 Speaker 1: and liberty, the United States. And you know what, they 46 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 1: can go to hell. Yeah. This guy named Frank who 47 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 1: wrote Downfall, he gets on a lot of podcasts standing 48 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 1: up for the dropping the bomb, but he always people 49 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 1: leave out the then what would we have done, because 50 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 1: we weren't going to just say, okay, we'll leave you 51 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 1: in place with your military, which is very very powerful, 52 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: killing people as fast as you can. So that was 53 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:32,119 Speaker 1: at an option. The backup plan was to surround the country 54 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 1: and starve them out. That was the backup plan, and 55 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: that would have killed way more people. And it is 56 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: believed that just like Hamas, the Japanese military would have 57 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 1: kept the food for themselves and been perfectly fine with 58 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: starving the population, including many of our prisoners by the way, 59 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: which they were doing at the time, starving them, if 60 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: not just killing them so that they wouldn't have to 61 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: eat anything. Right, So that was the backup plan, which 62 00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 1: was going to be worse in terms of a number 63 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: of people dying. Yeah, yep, it's again I get as 64 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: a guy who loves history, it weirds me out sometimes 65 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: that I think, what's the point of even reading about 66 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: it because nobody else does. Narratives get formed and they 67 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 1: last for decades or centuries regardless of what's true. Right, Well, 68 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: I guess all you can do is chip away at 69 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: the colossus of you know, left wing consensus and spread 70 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: the word best you can. I suppose. I don't know. 71 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 1: It's it's a battle for hearts and minds. You just, 72 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,679 Speaker 1: you know, do you do your part as a person 73 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: with a conscience. We had only you know, if you've 74 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: seen the movie Oppenheimer, you know this. We'd only tested 75 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 1: that nuclear weapon like in July, and here it is 76 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 1: today that we dropped it. I mean, we had just 77 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: tested the dang thing. So will it work? Is it 78 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: going to suck the plane out of the sky and 79 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: kill the crew that dropped it? I mean, nobody knew 80 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 1: what was going to happen, with a variety of different things, 81 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 1: and then it wasn't the greatest thing on the ground 82 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: there either. Oh no, lands on your head. No. Indeed, 83 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 1: Although as Frank and others have pointed out if you 84 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 1: look at the deaths from the dropping of the atomic 85 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 1: bombs in the context of the Greater conflict, I mean 86 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,359 Speaker 1: it was a tiny A tiny number. Is two hundred 87 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 1: thousand people an unspeakable horror, Yeah, which begins to give 88 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,359 Speaker 1: you an idea of the scope of the horror of 89 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 1: the Japanese wars of conquest. Yeah, wars are horrible. So 90 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,679 Speaker 1: we've got a war going on right now between Russia 91 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 1: and Ukraine that is absolutely horrible. The things that are 92 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: happening on the ground and the way people are dying 93 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:46,359 Speaker 1: and maimed and just absolutely horrible. And Trump said his 94 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 1: peace dude over there Witkoff Again. He's talking to Putin 95 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: right now in Russia as we speak, and the belief 96 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 1: is that he's delivering a much different message than he 97 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: has delivered in the past from Trump. When Trump thought, 98 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: we're a couple of smart guys that run the world. 99 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: We're going to work this out. It's a misunderstanding. Now 100 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 1: Trump realizes that's not the case, that Putin is a 101 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 1: power hungry nut job, And so the assumption is that 102 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: the message is completely different. What it is, I don't know, 103 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 1: but hopefully it's something along the lines of sanctions hit 104 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: Friday and we are going to arm Ukraine like you 105 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: can't even believe. So what do you think? I have 106 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:29,599 Speaker 1: heard almost nobody thinking, talking, speculating about what I find 107 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: the most intriguing question in this of for recent weeks, 108 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 1: That is, how did Putin decide and what was his 109 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: purpose in responding to some of Trump's entreaties, not with 110 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 1: promises or negotiation, but with contempt, open, insulting contempt of Trump. 111 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 1: Because Putin's a calculator, he does not go off half cocked. 112 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 1: What was he trying to get or accomplish? I don't know. 113 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 1: I don't know. That's what I've wanted all along too. 114 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: I find that, you know, if I was writing a 115 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 1: novel or just speculating. Hell, I am speculating. I'm frightened 116 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: by the possible answers to that question. I don't get it. 117 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: Why are you trying to provoke a known hot head 118 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 1: at the head of the greatest military in the history 119 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 1: of the Earth. Why are you playing the hard ass 120 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: when you've been playing the Hey, I'm sure we can 121 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: find an agreement guy for so long. Psychologically, does he 122 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: think Trump will back down? Or is like you said, 123 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: you are a concerned. Is your concern that he's not rational, 124 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: oh Putin? Yeah, yeah, or that he's trying to provoke 125 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: some gigantic conflict. He and Shijin Pang have gotten together 126 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: and decided, Look, the only way to turn the global 127 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: order against the US, because we're making progress is to 128 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: provoke the US into some serious military action that kills 129 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: I don't know, half a million people, And Putin said, yeah, 130 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: I don't mind sacrificing that many people and chesi and 131 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: things like place I eat that for breakfast. I don't know. 132 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 1: You got two countries that if they lost a million 133 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 1: people between them, that wouldn't blink an eye. I mean, 134 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 1: it wouldn't mean anything to him. Where in the where 135 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: in Western societies obviously be just as horrific as anything 136 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 1: we can imagine they might be. They might be calculating 137 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: that's that was part. That was the calculation eighty years 138 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 1: ago today by the Japanese right exactly. And though it 139 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 1: sounds unthinkable, that sort of thing has been decided over 140 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:40,560 Speaker 1: and over again in history, including WW two, and I 141 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: just I'm surprised nobody is. I'm not hearing any punditry 142 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: on that question. Yeah, it is shocking that more atomic 143 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 1: bombs have not been dropped since eighty years ago this week. 144 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just shocking. Nobody would have expected that. 145 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,959 Speaker 1: I've got it crappy as human beings are. Yes, I 146 00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: would agree we've got to Kennedy's yesses that he was 147 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: making in his administration for where the world would be, 148 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 1: and we're way short of that, thank god, in terms 149 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 1: of countries having and using nuclear weapons. Someday it will happen, though, 150 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 1: and then who knows what's going to occur after that. 151 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: But uh, it's a little heavy for right at this moment. 152 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 1: We should start to show. We should start to show 153 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: officially on this August six sixth. I'm Jack Armstrong. He's 154 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 1: Joe Getty Wednesday, August sixth of the year twenty twenty five, 155 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 1: or Armstrong and getting we approve of this program. Oh, 156 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 1: I should probably mention that the Chinese are establishing baby 157 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 1: factories in Los Angeles. More on that story to come. 158 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: What is bizarre? Story? Bizarre? All right, let's begin the 159 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 1: show officially now according to FCC rules regulations, here we 160 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 1: go at Mark, I would like to know what your 161 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 1: solution would be for gun violence. 162 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 3: Great question, I believe in a mix of stronger gun 163 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 3: control laws, mental health support. 164 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:55,319 Speaker 1: And community engagement. 165 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:59,079 Speaker 3: We need to create safe spaces for conversations and connections, 166 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,319 Speaker 3: making sure everyone feel seen and heard. It's about building 167 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 3: a culture of kindness and understanding. What do you think 168 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 3: about that? 169 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 4: I think that's a great idea, Joaquin, So what was that? 170 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 1: That was somebody who doesn't exist being interviewed one of 171 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: the kids who died in the Parkland school shooting, one 172 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 1: of the worst school shootings in US history. An a 173 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: I creation of in theory how you would answer or 174 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 1: something I don't know exactly. That was a grand standing 175 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 1: former CNN lefty Jim Acosta interviewing the AI manifestation of 176 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,559 Speaker 1: one of the victims of the Parkland shooting, with the 177 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: blessing of the parents, who are gun control activists as well. 178 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 1: Is that supposed to be deep? Or I think so 179 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 1: touching and moving and powerful? Because you programmed a robot 180 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 1: to say what you wanted it to say, I assume, 181 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,959 Speaker 1: And it looks like the lad talking kind of accept 182 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,439 Speaker 1: the words are out of sync with the lips. Well, 183 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: even if they were in sync with ellips, how significant 184 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 1: would that be? Do I have a soft head. In 185 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 1: this scenario, I think, to the pliable skulled among us, 186 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: that's very powerful. Oh my god, that was so moving. 187 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:26,559 Speaker 1: All right. I know. Wait, we've heard about this thing 188 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,439 Speaker 1: with funerals across the country. I don't know if this 189 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 1: will become a thing where you ai kind of reanimates 190 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: the person that was dead, right, and then they can 191 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 1: they can be up on a screen thanking everybody for 192 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: coming and maybe saying what they you know you meant 193 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 1: to me or whatever. 194 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 5: Sniding blame, calling out my enemies, and you did me wrong, 195 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 5: Uncle Aal, you did me wrong. 196 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 1: I would shout from beyond the grave.

This is either a 241 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: really big deal or nothing. I don't have any idea. 242 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 1: This has just become too ridiculous to pay attention to anymore. 243 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: In my opinion. You got Democrats going around the country 244 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: holding town hall saying we demand transparency of the Epstein thing. 245 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 1: We need the Fosy, well, the Republicans, at least the 246 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 1: Epstein file.

I've 254 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 1: never saw him do anything untoward whatsoever. The timing on 255 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 1: that is not good. I don't I'm not trying to 256 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: claim I think Trump did anything, but that's horrible timing. 257 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 1: And it's unprecedented to have a sex offender of her 258 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: level in a club fed.

Trump warned 294 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 6: if crime has not dealt with properly, he may be 295 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 6: forced to take over. 296 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 1: Somebody from Dosee was very badly hurt last night. 297 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 6: You saw that a young man who was beat up 298 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 6: by a bunch of thugs in DC. 299 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,439 Speaker 1: And either they're going to straighten their act out. In 300 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,119 Speaker 1: the terms of government and in terms of protection, we're 301 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 1: gonna have to federalize and run it the way it's 302 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 1: supposed to be run. That's a terrible story. Could happen 303 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,439 Speaker 1: in any city, could certainly happen in any of your 304 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 1: blue cities where they don't prosecute crime. And even if 305 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: they catch somebody doing something awful, you let them go 306 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,919 Speaker 1: because the system blah blah blah, you're a Marxist. But 307 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 1: in this case, it was a big balls, one of 308 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 1: your famous doge dudes nineteen years old and saw carjacking 309 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,159 Speaker 1: and they're coming toward the car and he pushes his 310 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 1: girlfriend in the car to try to say, to protect 311 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:31,959 Speaker 1: her from this group that was harassing him. Then they 312 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,439 Speaker 1: just start beating the crap out of him. Yeah, and 313 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:37,879 Speaker 1: thing you left out of your analysis is that the 314 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: word has gotten around that if you're a teenager you 315 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 1: can commit any crime, and in the Blue Cities they'll say, well, 316 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 1: you're a victim of the system, so we'll do nothing 317 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 1: about it. It's just luck that police happened to roll 318 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 1: up like right as he was getting attacked or quite 319 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 1: possibly would have been killed. I mean, oh yeah, you know, 320 00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 1: you can start getting kicked in the head and punched 321 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 1: in the face or you know, again, there are a 322 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 1: hell of a lot of the fates that are horrible, 323 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:09,439 Speaker 1: that are sure of being killed. Sure, absolutely, Well, just 324 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 1: that alone, you would never be the same. No, he's 325 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 1: in one of the really trendy hot spots of DC 326 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 1: where a restaurant, bars and stuff like that. You would 327 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 1: never again in your life walk out of a restaurant 328 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: wasn't even super late at night. You'd never get in 329 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 1: your life, walk out of a restaurant and not be 330 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 1: nervous about being attacked, and anybody who's had traumatic brain 331 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: injury can tell you it changes you pretty much forever. Anyway, 332 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 1: A horrible story. But so now Trump is talking over 333 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: his legal right to take over DC if it's not 334 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 1: being run properly. Putting aside for the moment, the shrieks 335 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 1: of horror that we would hear from the left and 336 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 1: then some on the right as well. If it were 337 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 1: done in the right way and DC became like a 338 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 1: low crime heavenly, you know, great city to live in. 339 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,399 Speaker 1: What effect might that have on the nation's politics, probably 340 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 1: just for about one generation. That would be something. I mean, 341 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: if the Feds went in and cleaned up DC made 342 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:22,440 Speaker 1: us safe, Wow, that'd be great. So interesting story here, 343 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 1: that's turn in Singapore cane people for chewing gum. Start 344 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: there with the gum Caine grumbles from there, that's pined 345 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: for chewing gum. Mark Errick. So a different topic. This 346 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 1: is not actually about the WNBA. It's bigger than that 347 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 1: and more interesting than that. So it starts with the 348 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 1: whole uh we had Katie mentioned possibility it's going to 349 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:51,400 Speaker 1: become a thing to throw sex toys on the court 350 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: at w NBA games. I hear that, Alay has. I 351 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 1: hope that doesn't catch on. It's happened twice. The fact 352 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,680 Speaker 1: that I find it hilarious doesn't mean it should continue. 353 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 1: I'm not laughing, I'm coughing. Well it's spread to the NBA. No, 354 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: I don't think so. 355 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 2: No. 356 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 1: I suppose very quickly they'll have to start just going 357 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 1: through people's bags and purses to make sure they haven't 358 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 1: brought a you say the word. I don't say the word. 359 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:26,200 Speaker 1: It rhymes with admiral, Admiral Bilbo. I don't say that word. 360 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 1: But they'll just start have to check your bags and 361 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 1: purses to make sure you're not trying to smuggle one in. 362 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 1: But you just strap it to your leg or something. 363 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,360 Speaker 1: It's not like a metal detector is gonna catch it anyway. 364 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 4: Such politically correct times, they can't ask you if you're 365 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 4: wearing it. 366 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Well, right, yeah, exactly. So anyway, 367 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,679 Speaker 1: this is different part of the w NBA story. Britney 368 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 1: Griner is maybe. 369 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:57,160 Speaker 4: Pardon me a man, sorry, it's that same cough Joe has. 370 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 2: Well. 371 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 1: Okay, so first of all, Katie mentioned that during the commercials, 372 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 1: and I had never really thought about it, and she 373 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 1: says she's got a very low voice, and she's a 374 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:15,680 Speaker 1: very man masculine, masculine woman. So then I just I did. 375 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 1: I searched on Britney Griner. I wasn't searching on that. 376 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 1: I was searching on something else, and then I came 377 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 1: across the story that, well, if I look at news, uh, 378 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 1: Snopes has a story that's making the round that the 379 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 1: WNBA is doing some sort of investigation as to her 380 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 1: actual sex. But Snope says that isn't true. That's funny. 381 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 1: I haven't heard Snopes referenced in forever. I wasn't even 382 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 1: going to talk about that. I had watched a video 383 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 1: last night on YouTube that featured quotes from Stephen A. Smith, 384 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,119 Speaker 1: clips from his show like the most famous sportscaster in 385 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,879 Speaker 1: the world, and a bunch of other people and everything 386 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 1: like that, and got hoodwinked on something that isn't real. 387 00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:00,959 Speaker 1: Apparently a whole bunch of organizations have. And then you 388 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 1: can cobble together comments about other things and put them 389 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 1: with your narrative, and it's pretty easy to get fooled 390 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 1: in the modern world. That's really the point of me 391 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 1: bringing this up. It's not the WNBA story. It's just 392 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 1: a It is so damn hard to figure out what's 393 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: real and what's not, and it's gonna get way worse anyway. 394 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:24,719 Speaker 1: So Britney Griner, a WNBA player, She's the famous one 395 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 1: that got locked up in Russia by Putin and we 396 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,359 Speaker 1: had to trade one of the worst arms merchants in 397 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 1: the world to get her back out. Yeah, way to go, 398 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 1: way to get to have to, you know, obligate your 399 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 1: country to do that, because you like the gane so much. 400 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 1: She has her she has, thank you, madam. She has 401 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:46,639 Speaker 1: recently been associated with fabricated quotes expressing frustration with crowds 402 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 1: the women's basketball games. I heard these last night and 403 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 1: Stephen A. Smith commenting on him, and I thought, oh, 404 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: I can't wait to talk about this tomorrow. This is amazing. 405 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 1: She did not say she was not complaining about current 406 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:02,480 Speaker 1: WNBA crowds, and said w NBA games used to be 407 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: a chill, quiet place you could bring your laptop and 408 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: relax and enjoy the game. Now there's all this yelling 409 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 1: and chanting and stomping around. You can't even hardly hear 410 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:14,119 Speaker 1: yourself thinking these stadiums, And of course the blowback was, Okay, 411 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 1: you became a popular sport and now you have a 412 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 1: crowd and you're complaining about it. No, did people actually 413 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 1: take that seriously? 414 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 5: Well? 415 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: I took it seriously because it had Stephen A. Smith 416 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 1: reacting to it, but apparently he was reacting to other 417 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: stories that just got edited in and so I just 418 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:35,239 Speaker 1: got fooled. So she did not say that, just to clarify, No, 419 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,200 Speaker 1: and he did not comment on it correct And yet 420 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 1: there it was in utterly convincing form on the interwebs. Yeah, 421 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 1: I mean very convincing. They had recently posted this, and 422 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 1: then they had what looked like a tweet from her, 423 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:51,199 Speaker 1: and then they Stephen A. Smith thought it was outrageous, 424 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 1: and then they have him going on and on about 425 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 1: the WNBA and not understand blah blah blah, and I 426 00:24:55,720 --> 00:25:00,960 Speaker 1: just assumed it was real. Wow, but it was completely phony. Yeah, disturbing. 427 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 1: Now this doesn't matter because it's a sport that only 428 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:08,880 Speaker 1: exists because it's subsidized by the men's league, and you know, 429 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:11,959 Speaker 1: in sports doesn't matter that much period all the way around. 430 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 1: But this sort of thing is happening with politics all 431 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: the time. I don't know. I don't know what we're 432 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,240 Speaker 1: going to do about this. I don't think there's anything 433 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 1: we can do about it. Hurl a dildo into the 434 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: House of Representatives. I don't know. Oh that's your answer 435 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 1: for everything. It's just you've made your planted. What is 436 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:32,919 Speaker 1: one to do? I don't know. Well, I'm reduced to 437 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 1: chucking of marital lie. Well, I can't. I can't do 438 00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 1: the homework assignment. Everything I come across to like go 439 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 1: three layers deep to make sure it's real. It's a 440 00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 1: little too time consuming, right, And then the other end 441 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 1: of it is you just stop believing anything, which is 442 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 1: what Putin's hoping for with all the bots that he's 443 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,320 Speaker 1: got flying her out there in the Chinese. They want 444 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 1: us to just become so discouraged we don't believe anything. 445 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 1: Coming up. By the way, and mail bag highly controversial 446 00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:05,919 Speaker 1: and sexist email about the WNBA. Shocking stuff stay with us. 447 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,400 Speaker 1: And by the way, as I'm scrolling through, I just 448 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 1: searched on Britney Griner complaints about crowd the number of 449 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:19,920 Speaker 1: sites that say bright Britney Griner complains about how loud 450 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,120 Speaker 1: it is not games and blah blah blah. I mean 451 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:28,879 Speaker 1: tons of sites that we're quoting that whole fake thing. Wow, Wow, 452 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: these are odd times. I know it, I don't, I don't. 453 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: I don't know what's gonna happen.

Now there's 477 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:50,120 Speaker 1: a question about whether she said Britney Grinder said trash 478 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 1: white girl about Caitlin Clark after a call or something 479 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:56,840 Speaker 1: the other game again getting getting to the Wall Street 480 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 1: Journals article that there might be a legal case that 481 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 1: Caitlin Clark is being discriminated against in the workplace for 482 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 1: being white. Right, But to your previous point, My immediate 483 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 1: instinctive reaction to you suggesting that Britney Grinder said that 484 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 1: was I don't know if she said it or not. Right, Yeah, 485 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:22,159 Speaker 1: I don't know, a little troubling if you do this 486 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:23,880 Speaker 1: for a living, follow the news and want to talk 487 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: about the most interesting stuff, and a chunk at the time, 488 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: it might not be true speaking of women in the news. 489 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 1: The perfect cap, the exclamation point, the end, the second 490 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 1: parenthesy of the Sydney Sweeney story. Oh boy, I hope 491 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 1: it's the cap in the end. I know, I think 492 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: we all do. I don't think the subpoenas on the 493 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 1: Clintons and Komy and Clapper and all these different people 494 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 1: about the Epstein case means that's the cap on that story. 495 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: I think we're about to go way further on that 496 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 1: whole thing to what end. I have no idea. We'll 497 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 1: get into that an hour two. And we've got mail 498 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: Bag next. For instance, we're just talking about the fake 499 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 1: Britney Griner's story WNBA story that went around and got 500 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 1: all kinds of outlets talking about it, and it was 501 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: all phony. The whole Epstein thing. How are you supposed 502 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 1: to nail down what's real and what's not on that? 503 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 1: And are now subpoenas for like everybody that's been in 504 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 1: the news and politics in the last ten years have 505 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 1: been subpoenaed around the whole Epstein thing. And I have 506 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 1: no idea what's going to come out of that. It's 507 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 1: become a cottage industry, a significant industry, both in terms 508 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 1: of dollars and cents and also political power going back 509 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 1: and forth. So yeah, I see your point coming up 510 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 1: next hour. Never mind, Puppy Mills the Chinese communists are 511 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 1: running baby mills in the United States. The unbelievable story 512 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 1: coming up. I can't wait. You're not over selling this good. 513 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 1: Here's your freedom loving quote of the day, wrapping up 514 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 1: a series from the fabulous the fabulous Xavier Milay of Argentina. 515 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 1: And this isn't the quote of the day, but I 516 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 1: liked it. He says, I'm really a rough Bardian libertarian. 517 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 1: The state shouldn't exist. But in the short run, I'm 518 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 1: a menarchist. I've decided that's what I am. He says, 519 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: I'm a minarchist. I'll settle for minimal government that provides defense, justice, 520 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 1: and security, with social services left to the private sector. 521 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: I want to get back to that quote. Wow, ruminate 522 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 1: on it. That is great. Yeah, yeah, it's terrific. Oh 523 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 1: here's the actual quote. Do not surrender to the advance 524 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: of the state. The state is not the solution. The 525 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:46,840 Speaker 1: state is the problem itself. Male state is the problem itself. 526 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 1: It's just a different wording of Ronald Reagan's you know, 527 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 1: amen to that. More more to come. Drum's note mail 528 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 1: bag at Armstrong and Getty dot com. Wow, this just die. 529 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 1: This email from Drew the millennial WNBA finally receiving enormous 530 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 1: amounts of attention relative to anything it's ever seen. These 531 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 1: women are finally getting what they've been demanding for years, 532 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 1: but they seem more unhappy than ever. This is the 533 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 1: most interesting thing about the WNBA. It's a league of women, obviously, 534 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 1: but the league is, in general Caddy jealous of the 535 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 1: success of other women, unsatisfied with solutions to the league's 536 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 1: problems because they aren't in the form they expected, et cetera. 537 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: It's interesting because evidently, if a big group of women 538 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 1: get together, that group of individual women will begin to 539 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 1: collectively behave like one single woman without them even coordinating it. 540 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 1: It just happens. This needs to be studied on the 541 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 1: university level. Truth of millennial That is sexist, that's stereotyping. 542 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,240 Speaker 1: You know what, your emails are no longer welcome here. 543 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 1: It's like what's his name the comedian at the SPT 544 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 1: other night when he said, Megan Rappano isn't here good 545 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 1: and everybody we grown and he said, oh, what we're 546 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 1: gonna pretend she is a good time. That's beautiful. Moving along, boy, 547 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: We did a segment on parents sneaking candy contraband to 548 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 1: their kids in camp and Kay Rights, I agree with Katie. 549 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 1: The story he told the other day about the kids 550 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,560 Speaker 1: that summer campon and the parents sounds like smuggling contraband 551 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:22,720 Speaker 1: into a prison. What are these kids and their parents 552 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 1: going to do next? Suitcase, slim gyms, tutsi rolls, and 553 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 1: three Musketeers bars, perhaps a can of pringles. I doubt that. Well, 554 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:32,920 Speaker 1: if I have to, I'll take the slim gym over 555 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 1: the pringles. You know, it was crazy because these camps 556 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 1: have these rules against candy and food and all because 557 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 1: they have rat problems. But the parents explained, the kid 558 00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 1: gets a jolt of Mommy and daddy are thinking of 559 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 1: me and sent me my favorite treat even though I'm 560 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 1: away at camp. And I look at it the other way. 561 00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 1: I think the kid gets a jolt of You're not 562 00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 1: going to always have everything you want the way you 563 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 1: want it. This is life. That's what eules follow him. 564 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 1: Let's see Jeff and North Carolina points out, guys, JD. 565 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 1: Vance has been glaringly absent during several big controversies lately. 566 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 1: Smart Trump famously, we ought to get this clip essentially 567 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 1: called jdvans the heir parent yesterday. Yeah, and he has 568 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 1: not been involved in some of the stickier, icky er 569 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 1: stuff like Epstein for instance. What if he's got the 570 00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:35,240 Speaker 1: Trump esque qualities that work and but with some restraint, 571 00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 1: that might make him pretty powerful. Oh my gosh, don't 572 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:42,960 Speaker 1: don't tempt me place, don't give me that much hope. 573 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 1: Let's see Brandon, right, guys. The whole jerrymandering discussion reminds 574 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: me of a great saying voters don't choose their politicians, 575 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 1: politicians choose their voters. I wish I could remember where 576 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 1: I read that, But just like human nature, I don't 577 00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 1: think it'll ever change. All we can do is restrain them. 578 00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 1: In California, about forty percent of people vote Republican, represented 579 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 1: by seventeen percent of the House members. That's almost exactly 580 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 1: the same number. Is what Texas is trying to pull 581 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:15,840 Speaker 1: off right now. That's being treated as some sort of 582 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 1: Nazi takeover and deceiving hypocrite. Gavin Nooso is all offended. 583 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 1: We've got to protect our democracy. In fact, we're going 584 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 1: to violate our own laws and we're going to redistrict 585 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 1: even harder in California. I must say, though, I think 586 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:32,759 Speaker 1: the Dems are winning the pr battle on this, even 587 00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,960 Speaker 1: though they jerry mannered their states long before Texas got 588 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 1: around to it. I don't think they will ultimately win it. 589 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 1: I hope you're right, even with the entirety of the 590 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:48,439 Speaker 1: media let's see, Wow, this is heavy. Jacob writing about 591 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:51,040 Speaker 1: our discussion of the Pacific theater in World War Two, 592 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 1: the dropping of the atomic bombs, etc. It reminded me 593 00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:56,160 Speaker 1: of a conversation I had with my sister in law, 594 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,720 Speaker 1: who was Japanese born and raised in Japan. I forgot 595 00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:00,239 Speaker 1: how the subject of the war came up. I was 596 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 1: curious about how it was taught in Japan. After some discussion, 597 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:05,479 Speaker 1: I asked her if she was taught about comfort women, 598 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 1: the rape of Nan King, et cetera. Her reaction was 599 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:10,399 Speaker 1: if she were hearing about these atrocities for the very 600 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:13,319 Speaker 1: first time. Well educated woman too. And it occurred to 601 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 1: me that the more controversial subjects were not taught in 602 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 1: Japanese schools, and why would they be. Only a stupid 603 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 1: country would focus on the horrible things that it did 604 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 1: in its past. I mean, I'm for a balanced view 605 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,720 Speaker 1: of history, but yeah, we have allowed our education system 606 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 1: to be taken over by America haters. It's a bizarre experiment. Well, 607 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 1: but I don't even know if I buy in as 608 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,680 Speaker 1: much as people claim they do about looking at your 609 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 1: worst stuff all the time. Did you sit around the 610 00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 1: dinner table and talk about the time you lost your 611 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:48,839 Speaker 1: temper over and over and over again? Why? All right? 612 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:49,120 Speaker 2: Yeah? 613 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,600 Speaker 1: No, it would be a perverse and poisonous way of 614 00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:58,279 Speaker 1: approaching the totality of whatever you're talking about, right, And 615 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:04,400 Speaker 1: the only possible motivation for promoting demanding that that's the 616 00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 1: way the discussion go is because you want to tear 617 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:11,759 Speaker 1: down what it is you are talking about. Absolutely, that's 618 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 1: a good one. Speaking of Joe Getty, cold Warrior, damn 619 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 1: Chinese commies running baby mills in our country in LA specifically, 620 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:24,640 Speaker 1: all the details next hour, I promise. Plus, we have 621 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,400 Speaker 1: a new detention center with a cool name, the Speedway 622 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 1: Slammer in Indiana. It's no Alligator Alcatraz, so lots on 623 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:34,920 Speaker 1: the way. If you missed a secondent, get the podcast 624 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:39,320 Speaker 1: Armstrong and Getty on demand. Armstrong and Getty
