WEBVTT - A Total Victory

0:00:01.800 --> 0:00:06.120
<v Speaker 1>Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

0:00:06.160 --> 0:00:10.240
<v Speaker 1>Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong, Joe Getty.

0:00:10.160 --> 0:00:17.200
<v Speaker 2>Arm Strong and Getty and now he Armstrong and Yetty.

0:00:24.760 --> 0:00:30.240
<v Speaker 1>I was importing a whole bunch of popsicle sticks for

0:00:30.400 --> 0:00:33.320
<v Speaker 1>my popstickle art that I sell over the summer.

0:00:33.880 --> 0:00:34.800
<v Speaker 2>It's exquisite.

0:00:34.960 --> 0:00:40.120
<v Speaker 1>I had paid the incredibly high tariffs up until forty

0:00:40.159 --> 0:00:43.360
<v Speaker 1>eight hours ago. Luckily the tariffs are canceled, so my

0:00:43.400 --> 0:00:46.040
<v Speaker 1>popsicle stick. But then the tariffs are back on again

0:00:46.080 --> 0:00:49.720
<v Speaker 1>as of yesterday. So it's a small business owner like myself.

0:00:49.760 --> 0:00:52.000
<v Speaker 1>It's very difficult to plan ahead well.

0:00:52.080 --> 0:00:54.920
<v Speaker 3>And I paid ninety eight dollars for one of your

0:00:54.960 --> 0:01:00.480
<v Speaker 3>popsicle stick log cabins when the normal price had been

0:01:00.560 --> 0:01:01.840
<v Speaker 3>eighty five dollars.

0:01:01.880 --> 0:01:03.920
<v Speaker 2>So do I get that money? How does that work?

0:01:05.240 --> 0:01:08.920
<v Speaker 1>It's eighty waundry eighty five dollars for a popsicle stick

0:01:09.000 --> 0:01:13.880
<v Speaker 1>log gabin. I'm doing pretty well well. Again, they're absolutely exquisite.

0:01:14.319 --> 0:01:17.440
<v Speaker 1>That's the good news. The bad news is California's crumbling

0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:21.920
<v Speaker 1>upstood Michael not get the memo? Oh maybe we didn't

0:01:21.920 --> 0:01:24.840
<v Speaker 1>tell the guy who runs the music I got it.

0:01:24.840 --> 0:01:28.360
<v Speaker 1>This feature I guess frozen up again. No, no, we

0:01:28.400 --> 0:01:30.560
<v Speaker 1>didn't tell the band. We forgot to talk. Boudy was

0:01:30.840 --> 0:01:32.880
<v Speaker 1>in the room when we were talking. Be in the

0:01:32.959 --> 0:01:37.880
<v Speaker 1>room when we're talking. Michael, that's your job. Hell yeah,

0:01:37.920 --> 0:01:38.560
<v Speaker 1>here we go.

0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:40.120
<v Speaker 2>Listen.

0:01:40.160 --> 0:01:44.920
<v Speaker 3>We've got some really exciting audio about the Green New Deal,

0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:47.039
<v Speaker 3>which is alive and well in California, and how that

0:01:47.120 --> 0:01:50.120
<v Speaker 3>will affect normal people if you let this crap go

0:01:50.200 --> 0:01:50.520
<v Speaker 3>too far.

0:01:50.560 --> 0:01:51.840
<v Speaker 2>But let me throw this in.

0:01:51.880 --> 0:01:54.760
<v Speaker 3>Just as an appetizer, just just to wet the palette.

0:01:56.320 --> 0:02:01.240
<v Speaker 3>Who is Zara Billu? Zara Billou is an executive for

0:02:01.560 --> 0:02:05.360
<v Speaker 3>a director of care in San Francisco, the Council on

0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:10.320
<v Speaker 3>American Islamic Relations, which has been tied to many extremist

0:02:10.400 --> 0:02:14.239
<v Speaker 3>groups that financed terrorism and their Islamic supremacists. And they're

0:02:14.240 --> 0:02:16.359
<v Speaker 3>not to be trusted and I don't like them a bit,

0:02:16.400 --> 0:02:20.320
<v Speaker 3>and I will stand by those statements. Zara Blue said

0:02:21.480 --> 0:02:25.880
<v Speaker 3>Joe Biden's cancer diagnosis was God's wrath for his handling

0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:29.280
<v Speaker 3>of the Israel Hamas war, and added that she's praying

0:02:29.320 --> 0:02:33.360
<v Speaker 3>Biden's cancer will be as aggressive as Israel's military actions

0:02:33.400 --> 0:02:37.520
<v Speaker 3>against Hamas. She also said she prays that his final

0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:43.880
<v Speaker 3>dayser are painful, and that Trump is next. Here's the punchline.

0:02:44.880 --> 0:02:51.120
<v Speaker 1>Miss Blue serves on California's Civil Rights board. That's right

0:02:51.200 --> 0:02:54.720
<v Speaker 1>because she believes its civil rights. So if you had

0:02:54.840 --> 0:02:57.800
<v Speaker 1>somebody make that sort of claim that was in any

0:02:57.840 --> 0:03:01.960
<v Speaker 1>way associated with the right or Republicans, that would be

0:03:02.240 --> 0:03:04.000
<v Speaker 1>a nationwide story.

0:03:05.200 --> 0:03:05.519
<v Speaker 2>Correct.

0:03:05.560 --> 0:03:08.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, And the god's wrath and aggressive stuff is something

0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:12.280
<v Speaker 3>she said. I accidentally assigned the hope his final days

0:03:12.280 --> 0:03:12.760
<v Speaker 3>are painful.

0:03:12.760 --> 0:03:14.400
<v Speaker 2>That was somebody else who said that.

0:03:15.360 --> 0:03:18.440
<v Speaker 1>The head of the NRA or I mean, you come

0:03:18.480 --> 0:03:21.119
<v Speaker 1>up with lots of examples, had said something like that.

0:03:21.760 --> 0:03:23.000
<v Speaker 2>It would be a national story.

0:03:23.480 --> 0:03:26.600
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, it is right up there with North Korea

0:03:26.680 --> 0:03:29.480
<v Speaker 3>being on the you know, the Human Rights Council of

0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:34.960
<v Speaker 3>the United Nations. It's practically hilarious. We're not so obsceen. Meanwhile,

0:03:35.080 --> 0:03:39.560
<v Speaker 3>the fabulous Ashley Zavala, who works for probably the leading

0:03:39.600 --> 0:03:43.200
<v Speaker 3>news station in the Sacramento, California area, the state's capital,

0:03:43.480 --> 0:03:46.920
<v Speaker 3>did a really interesting and compelling report recently. You got

0:03:46.920 --> 0:03:48.840
<v Speaker 3>thirty one up there, Michael, don't make me yell.

0:03:48.680 --> 0:03:49.200
<v Speaker 2>At you again.

0:03:49.680 --> 0:03:53.880
<v Speaker 4>We have alla, We have a crisis on our hand

0:03:53.920 --> 0:03:57.400
<v Speaker 4>that may have been self created by the actions that

0:03:57.440 --> 0:04:01.480
<v Speaker 4>perhaps have been taken by the state by regulators.

0:04:01.680 --> 0:04:06.160
<v Speaker 5>Will Democratic assemblyment David Alvarez and others frustrated after they

0:04:06.160 --> 0:04:09.200
<v Speaker 5>were swayed to approve some of the latest regulations put

0:04:09.240 --> 0:04:10.640
<v Speaker 5>on the oil and gas industry.

0:04:11.240 --> 0:04:13.720
<v Speaker 4>I think I also heard you say that another closure

0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:18.360
<v Speaker 4>can lead to a significant increase in cost to consumers

0:04:18.720 --> 0:04:19.640
<v Speaker 4>on the price of gas.

0:04:20.200 --> 0:04:24.200
<v Speaker 5>Yes, sir, Gunda Toad lawmakers, California will likely need to

0:04:24.240 --> 0:04:27.240
<v Speaker 5>have oil imported from other parts of the world by

0:04:27.279 --> 0:04:28.039
<v Speaker 5>ships some boys.

0:04:28.040 --> 0:04:30.360
<v Speaker 6>So we really have only one choice there today, which

0:04:30.400 --> 0:04:34.359
<v Speaker 6>is increasing imports based on a work right now that

0:04:34.440 --> 0:04:36.559
<v Speaker 6>will be very tight for the North.

0:04:37.680 --> 0:04:41.200
<v Speaker 7>Increase in imports, which means that you have more vessels.

0:04:41.600 --> 0:04:46.720
<v Speaker 7>Who in what I've heard also, if you increase the

0:04:46.839 --> 0:04:50.240
<v Speaker 7>vessels that that means more emissions because we don't control

0:04:50.920 --> 0:04:53.000
<v Speaker 7>those vessels and emissions in which they bring.

0:04:53.080 --> 0:04:53.719
<v Speaker 2>Is that correct?

0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:57.720
<v Speaker 5>But you are correct that additional marine traffic would implicate

0:04:59.360 --> 0:05:02.520
<v Speaker 5>air quality issues beyond state waters that we do not regulate.

0:05:03.720 --> 0:05:09.600
<v Speaker 1>So just in case you didn't follow this, that's Democrats saying, uh,

0:05:09.720 --> 0:05:14.200
<v Speaker 1>let me get this straight. Gavin Newsom and our supermajority

0:05:14.320 --> 0:05:17.760
<v Speaker 1>have overtaxed and overregulated oil companies out of the state,

0:05:19.000 --> 0:05:22.159
<v Speaker 1>and so now we have to import oil on a

0:05:22.279 --> 0:05:25.680
<v Speaker 1>ship that will do more environmental damage than if we

0:05:25.720 --> 0:05:29.560
<v Speaker 1>had left the oil companies here in California, and the

0:05:29.600 --> 0:05:31.680
<v Speaker 1>price of gas is going to go up a ton.

0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:35.480
<v Speaker 3>And frequently we'll import that oil or gas from countries

0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:38.400
<v Speaker 3>that don't give a crap about the environment and create

0:05:38.600 --> 0:05:40.200
<v Speaker 3>way more environmental.

0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:41.720
<v Speaker 2>Chaos than the old sources.

0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:45.400
<v Speaker 1>That's right, all so we can act like where we

0:05:45.440 --> 0:05:48.200
<v Speaker 1>care about the environment. So we again we made gas

0:05:48.279 --> 0:05:51.120
<v Speaker 1>more expensive and the environment worse. Just to want to

0:05:51.120 --> 0:05:53.520
<v Speaker 1>make sure I understand that. That's Democrats saying that.

0:05:53.960 --> 0:05:56.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, well, the environmental left, the far left would say

0:05:56.520 --> 0:05:57.000
<v Speaker 3>that's a win.

0:05:57.240 --> 0:05:59.080
<v Speaker 2>We want to drive you out of your company.

0:05:59.080 --> 0:06:00.560
<v Speaker 1>That's what you got to remember, and that's why we

0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:05.280
<v Speaker 1>always pointed out there is a big chunk of that crowd.

0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:08.680
<v Speaker 1>They want gas to go to ten dollars a gallon,

0:06:09.080 --> 0:06:11.080
<v Speaker 1>so that you have to ride a bike or carpool

0:06:11.160 --> 0:06:12.960
<v Speaker 1>or buy an electric car finally, or in any of

0:06:13.000 --> 0:06:14.480
<v Speaker 1>those other things as long as you don't drive a

0:06:14.480 --> 0:06:16.520
<v Speaker 1>gas park car. So they say that is good news.

0:06:16.680 --> 0:06:22.400
<v Speaker 1>The normal Democrats don't want gas prices to be high.

0:06:22.400 --> 0:06:24.960
<v Speaker 1>Because they know that's bad for everybody in the state.

0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:29.120
<v Speaker 3>Right, and the environmental extremists also, in a style similar

0:06:29.200 --> 0:06:33.400
<v Speaker 3>to Hamas loving having some good footage of a dead

0:06:33.480 --> 0:06:39.120
<v Speaker 3>Palestinian child or whatever, the environmental left loves hearing oil

0:06:39.200 --> 0:06:42.760
<v Speaker 3>and burning gas in California is an environmental disaster. So

0:06:42.760 --> 0:06:46.560
<v Speaker 3>they're probably more than happy to engage in this hypocrisy

0:06:46.600 --> 0:06:49.520
<v Speaker 3>because it makes the problem works quote unquote, the point

0:06:49.560 --> 0:06:51.280
<v Speaker 3>being California's crumbling metal guy.

0:06:51.320 --> 0:06:54.039
<v Speaker 2>Would you agree? I think you would, Yes, you would.

0:06:54.440 --> 0:06:55.240
<v Speaker 2>Three four.

0:06:57.320 --> 0:07:00.480
<v Speaker 3>Moving along the pods company out with the list of

0:07:00.520 --> 0:07:05.000
<v Speaker 3>twenty cities with the highest number of move outs. Congratulations

0:07:05.000 --> 0:07:08.159
<v Speaker 3>to cal Unicornia. Oh and I meant during the whole

0:07:08.240 --> 0:07:10.880
<v Speaker 3>environmental discussion, that's why we call it cal Unicorne. It's

0:07:10.880 --> 0:07:14.480
<v Speaker 3>where realism goes to die. You can constantly demand stricter

0:07:14.560 --> 0:07:17.040
<v Speaker 3>gun laws, but then if somebody uses a gun in

0:07:17.080 --> 0:07:19.800
<v Speaker 3>a crime, you let them loose, saying you know they're

0:07:19.800 --> 0:07:22.720
<v Speaker 3>the victim here of white supremacy or something. Or you

0:07:24.000 --> 0:07:27.440
<v Speaker 3>destroy the environment to save the environment. Anyway, let's see

0:07:27.440 --> 0:07:29.560
<v Speaker 3>your top twenty cities with the highest number of move outs.

0:07:29.600 --> 0:07:33.760
<v Speaker 3>Congratulations Bakersfield, Fresno, Stockton, Modesto, Santa Barbara counting up now

0:07:33.800 --> 0:07:36.920
<v Speaker 3>San Diego at number five, the San Francisco Bay Area

0:07:36.920 --> 0:07:39.280
<v Speaker 3>at number two, and La number one.

0:07:39.520 --> 0:07:40.320
<v Speaker 2>Metro areas with.

0:07:40.360 --> 0:07:44.400
<v Speaker 3>The highest moveouts according to the pods people seven Top

0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:50.080
<v Speaker 3>twenty Metal guy playing a medley of the.

0:07:50.280 --> 0:07:53.640
<v Speaker 2>Seven of the top twenty in the entire country. Yes. Wow,

0:07:54.000 --> 0:07:55.600
<v Speaker 2>that's the biggest state in the Union by.

0:07:55.480 --> 0:07:58.680
<v Speaker 3>Far, so it expects some distant I'm trying to be fair.

0:07:59.080 --> 0:07:59.840
<v Speaker 2>Fairness is my home.

0:07:59.840 --> 0:08:03.320
<v Speaker 1>At the same time, two years ago, California had never

0:08:03.400 --> 0:08:04.440
<v Speaker 1>shrunken population.

0:08:04.560 --> 0:08:07.760
<v Speaker 3>Now it has several years in a row, except balanced

0:08:07.800 --> 0:08:12.000
<v Speaker 3>by illegal immigration. So the total population grew slightly last year,

0:08:12.000 --> 0:08:13.680
<v Speaker 3>but it was almost entirely immigration.

0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:17.400
<v Speaker 2>That doesn't count. Yeah, why would you leave La? Maybe?

0:08:17.440 --> 0:08:21.160
<v Speaker 1>This chaos unfolds in downtown Las large mob vandalized the

0:08:21.160 --> 0:08:25.600
<v Speaker 1>police car, train and businesses. It happened this last weekend,

0:08:25.680 --> 0:08:30.040
<v Speaker 1>Saturday night. Huge mobs of people just running wild and lawless.

0:08:30.320 --> 0:08:30.720
<v Speaker 2>Was there a.

0:08:30.680 --> 0:08:34.240
<v Speaker 1>Sports victory or a George Floyd saying No, it's a

0:08:34.240 --> 0:08:36.640
<v Speaker 1>bunch of people realizing, Hey, we're all out here, and

0:08:36.720 --> 0:08:38.960
<v Speaker 1>if we're all lawless, nobody can do anything about it.

0:08:39.320 --> 0:08:41.559
<v Speaker 2>So they took over the streets.

0:08:43.240 --> 0:08:49.720
<v Speaker 3>Many watching and recording on their cell phones, spray painting, punching, kicking,

0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:55.079
<v Speaker 3>defacing police cars with cops in it, utterly unfearful of

0:08:55.120 --> 0:08:55.520
<v Speaker 3>the law.

0:08:56.920 --> 0:09:01.240
<v Speaker 1>Just I was in a business yesterday and somebody walked

0:09:01.240 --> 0:09:02.960
<v Speaker 1>in and said, hey, do you have a restroom? They said, no,

0:09:02.960 --> 0:09:05.640
<v Speaker 1>we don't have a public restroom. And I wanted to

0:09:05.679 --> 0:09:08.679
<v Speaker 1>do my screed for that guy who walked out and

0:09:08.720 --> 0:09:10.760
<v Speaker 1>the person who worked there. Do you know why there's

0:09:10.760 --> 0:09:13.400
<v Speaker 1>not a public restroom here? Because they have so many

0:09:13.400 --> 0:09:16.840
<v Speaker 1>homeless people that you've allowed in this town that it

0:09:16.920 --> 0:09:20.120
<v Speaker 1>became such a problem you decided to just close the restroom.

0:09:20.480 --> 0:09:24.480
<v Speaker 1>Twenty years ago every business. Fifteen years ago, every business

0:09:24.679 --> 0:09:27.960
<v Speaker 1>had a public restroom, but now nobody does because of

0:09:28.000 --> 0:09:31.120
<v Speaker 1>the homeless, and everybody just accepts It's why why does

0:09:31.160 --> 0:09:33.559
<v Speaker 1>everybody accept this? But I didn't do my usual rant

0:09:34.760 --> 0:09:37.240
<v Speaker 1>asterisk note I have begged Jack to use the term

0:09:37.320 --> 0:09:40.480
<v Speaker 1>transient drug addict instead of the homeless, because it's more

0:09:40.520 --> 0:09:43.680
<v Speaker 1>to the point. That's who we have problem with. The

0:09:43.720 --> 0:09:46.000
<v Speaker 1>poor old lady who had a medical bill she couldn't pay.

0:09:46.400 --> 0:09:47.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm happy to help her.

0:09:48.200 --> 0:09:52.840
<v Speaker 3>So anyway, moving along, a great open letter to the

0:09:52.880 --> 0:09:56.160
<v Speaker 3>City of San Francisco from Richie Greenberg, who's a terrific

0:09:56.200 --> 0:10:01.199
<v Speaker 3>writer and activist. San Francisco sit Hall is a cesspool

0:10:01.200 --> 0:10:05.000
<v Speaker 3>of dishonesty, cowardice, and complicity orchestrating a drug crisis that's

0:10:05.040 --> 0:10:08.080
<v Speaker 3>devouring our city while you are elected an appointed leaders

0:10:08.120 --> 0:10:12.000
<v Speaker 3>cower behind the empty promises and half big policies and

0:10:12.000 --> 0:10:14.280
<v Speaker 3>any I can't read the whole thing because it's lengthy,

0:10:14.360 --> 0:10:18.440
<v Speaker 3>but he says, here's the evidence. A couple of studies

0:10:18.480 --> 0:10:21.480
<v Speaker 3>just reported. Analysis new data reveals how many serious drug

0:10:21.559 --> 0:10:23.679
<v Speaker 3>users at risk O overdose in San Francisco. And it

0:10:23.720 --> 0:10:27.800
<v Speaker 3>isn't mere data, it's a damning indictment. Thirty seven almost

0:10:27.800 --> 0:10:31.400
<v Speaker 3>thirty eight thousand San Francisco's nearly five percent of the

0:10:31.440 --> 0:10:35.080
<v Speaker 3>city housed and anhaused, are confirmed hooked on drugs, eetering

0:10:35.120 --> 0:10:35.840
<v Speaker 3>at death's door.

0:10:36.000 --> 0:10:38.160
<v Speaker 2>Why this isn't a crisis, It's a betrayal.

0:10:38.400 --> 0:10:42.000
<v Speaker 3>City Hall spinalless elite of led addiction metastasized for decades.

0:10:42.240 --> 0:10:44.439
<v Speaker 3>Now we have a report by the University of California,

0:10:44.559 --> 0:10:47.520
<v Speaker 3>San Francisco putting this in writing, and you're directly a

0:10:47.559 --> 0:10:48.040
<v Speaker 3>part of this.

0:10:48.200 --> 0:10:50.720
<v Speaker 1>I went to San Francisco for the day last week

0:10:50.800 --> 0:10:54.680
<v Speaker 1>and I on Saturday for some reason, Why was I

0:10:54.720 --> 0:10:56.719
<v Speaker 1>in this neighborhood or walking away? Because I couldn't park

0:10:56.760 --> 0:10:59.800
<v Speaker 1>it I parked. I wasn't like staying at a hotel.

0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:01.440
<v Speaker 1>I could uber around. I had to park, and I

0:11:01.520 --> 0:11:03.880
<v Speaker 1>ended up parking a sketchy af neighborhood.

0:11:03.920 --> 0:11:05.120
<v Speaker 2>But I was walking through.

0:11:05.120 --> 0:11:09.840
<v Speaker 1>And just the number of out of their mind, asleep

0:11:10.040 --> 0:11:13.479
<v Speaker 1>or leaning against the wall drug addicts, it's just stunning.

0:11:13.720 --> 0:11:16.880
<v Speaker 1>You can't believe it's the United States of America.

0:11:17.000 --> 0:11:18.679
<v Speaker 2>It's just shocking.

0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:21.000
<v Speaker 3>Let me hit you with one more little chunk about

0:11:21.000 --> 0:11:24.640
<v Speaker 3>mister Greenberg's excellent screen dwarfing the city's estimated eighty two

0:11:24.760 --> 0:11:29.000
<v Speaker 3>hundred homeless. This drug addiction report exposes leadership so appallingly

0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:32.320
<v Speaker 3>derelict it's practically handing out syringes with a smile.

0:11:32.720 --> 0:11:32.800
<v Speaker 1>You.

0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:37.160
<v Speaker 3>San Francisco's officials aren't just failing. You've been accomplices, bankrolling

0:11:37.200 --> 0:11:41.080
<v Speaker 3>addiction with no strings attached, handouts and housing, watching lives

0:11:41.080 --> 0:11:45.679
<v Speaker 3>collapse literally as overdoses persist. We are tired of believing you,

0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:48.200
<v Speaker 3>tired of supporting you, tired of listening to rhetoric and

0:11:48.240 --> 0:11:51.160
<v Speaker 3>double speak, tired of taxes upon taxes, grabbing our hard

0:11:51.200 --> 0:11:53.800
<v Speaker 3>earned money in the name of compassion, dignity, and quote

0:11:53.840 --> 0:11:58.280
<v Speaker 3>unquote justice. We are disgusted at your unaccountable, untraceable appropriation

0:11:58.320 --> 0:11:59.840
<v Speaker 3>of our money you've been trusted to.

0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:01.520
<v Speaker 2>It's outright fraud.

0:12:01.800 --> 0:12:05.000
<v Speaker 3>And then you dare blame some boogeymen three thousand miles

0:12:05.000 --> 0:12:09.720
<v Speaker 3>east in DC for ales actually perpetrated by you right here.

0:12:09.920 --> 0:12:13.160
<v Speaker 3>Reality is each of you, individually and collectively are responsible

0:12:13.200 --> 0:12:17.840
<v Speaker 3>for this unconscionable disaster. We will post this at under

0:12:17.840 --> 0:12:20.480
<v Speaker 3>hot links at armstrong and geddy dot com. It is excellent.

0:12:20.800 --> 0:12:23.520
<v Speaker 3>It is making an argument we've made now for decades.

0:12:25.840 --> 0:12:29.760
<v Speaker 3>Who is the compassionate side? Which is the compassionate side

0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:34.000
<v Speaker 3>those who ease people into death on the sidewalks by.

0:12:33.800 --> 0:12:37.600
<v Speaker 1>Making it as easy as humanly possible to stay addicted

0:12:37.640 --> 0:12:40.400
<v Speaker 1>to horrible drugs. You feed them, you clothe them, you

0:12:40.440 --> 0:12:44.080
<v Speaker 1>give them needles in the name of compassion till they're dead,

0:12:44.200 --> 0:12:46.520
<v Speaker 1>then you take them away in the body wagon.

0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:50.120
<v Speaker 2>Or people like us who say no, we've got to

0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:51.200
<v Speaker 2>enforce the law.

0:12:51.559 --> 0:12:54.880
<v Speaker 1>We've got to save these people's lives by busting them.

0:12:55.120 --> 0:12:56.440
<v Speaker 2>Who's the compassionate one?

0:12:56.520 --> 0:12:59.080
<v Speaker 3>Huh? I'll let you be the judge California is crumbling.

0:13:00.640 --> 0:13:02.839
<v Speaker 3>You're right, you laugh, I laugh.

0:13:03.920 --> 0:13:06.280
<v Speaker 1>You are correct in pointing out that instead of referring

0:13:06.280 --> 0:13:08.520
<v Speaker 1>to them as homeless, should refer to them as drug addicts,

0:13:08.559 --> 0:13:12.120
<v Speaker 1>because that's what they are and that's why they're living

0:13:12.120 --> 0:13:16.240
<v Speaker 1>the life that they're the living. When it is treated

0:13:16.280 --> 0:13:19.720
<v Speaker 1>as a drug addiction problem as opposed to a housing problem,

0:13:19.800 --> 0:13:21.160
<v Speaker 1>that's when it gets solved.

0:13:21.240 --> 0:13:23.240
<v Speaker 2>And two the other thing. For the hundredth of time,

0:13:23.280 --> 0:13:24.120
<v Speaker 2>we got to say.

0:13:25.320 --> 0:13:28.480
<v Speaker 1>Tens of hundreds of million, hundred billions of dollars have

0:13:28.520 --> 0:13:31.319
<v Speaker 1>been spent on this. That money goes somewhere, somebody gets

0:13:31.320 --> 0:13:33.839
<v Speaker 1>that money. Lots and lots of people make their living

0:13:33.960 --> 0:13:38.600
<v Speaker 1>off the homeless industrial complex. Absolutely true, So solving scam

0:13:38.640 --> 0:13:39.600
<v Speaker 1>would ruin their jobs.

0:13:39.640 --> 0:13:42.400
<v Speaker 2>Okay, a lot more on the way. Stay here.

0:13:49.080 --> 0:13:51.960
<v Speaker 1>We've decided to put Michelangela in charge of setting up

0:13:51.960 --> 0:13:54.200
<v Speaker 1>this clip because we're mystified and confused as to what

0:13:54.240 --> 0:13:54.560
<v Speaker 1>it is.

0:13:55.280 --> 0:13:58.520
<v Speaker 8>Okay, Nate Bergatzi was talking about what it would be

0:13:58.640 --> 0:14:04.800
<v Speaker 8>like to fight an orangutu, but before the internet, before

0:14:04.880 --> 0:14:05.640
<v Speaker 8>the Internet.

0:14:05.679 --> 0:14:08.760
<v Speaker 1>Yes, I love pretty much everything Nate Bargatzi does, so

0:14:08.800 --> 0:14:12.000
<v Speaker 1>I imagine I will like this, Yeah, of what significance

0:14:12.160 --> 0:14:14.840
<v Speaker 1>is the development of the Internet in the field of

0:14:14.920 --> 0:14:16.040
<v Speaker 1>fighting giant apes?

0:14:16.280 --> 0:14:20.440
<v Speaker 2>Well, he kind of explained that, oh he does. Oh yeah, good, Well, all.

0:14:20.400 --> 0:14:26.120
<v Speaker 9>Right, you could fight an orangutan out of figure. They

0:14:26.120 --> 0:14:29.720
<v Speaker 9>would have an orangutan just sitting in a boxing ring

0:14:30.360 --> 0:14:34.640
<v Speaker 9>and guys would pay to fight it. And I say guys,

0:14:34.840 --> 0:14:38.280
<v Speaker 9>because I just can't imagine one woman ever fought this orangutan.

0:14:39.720 --> 0:14:41.600
<v Speaker 2>I think you could put an orangutang.

0:14:41.080 --> 0:14:43.600
<v Speaker 9>In a room with a thousand women and when they

0:14:43.640 --> 0:14:46.440
<v Speaker 9>walked out, like, did anybody fight it? They could never

0:14:46.480 --> 0:14:51.280
<v Speaker 9>cross their mind to fight it. But three men in

0:14:51.320 --> 0:14:55.280
<v Speaker 9>that room. Two of those men will fight that orangutan.

0:14:56.680 --> 0:14:58.760
<v Speaker 9>The other one would have started it going I think

0:14:58.840 --> 0:15:00.000
<v Speaker 9>y'all should fight that ring.

0:15:02.240 --> 0:15:04.520
<v Speaker 2>So guys get in there and the ring.

0:15:04.360 --> 0:15:07.560
<v Speaker 9>In tank would just knock everybody out. Because we don't

0:15:07.560 --> 0:15:09.920
<v Speaker 9>have the Internet to look up how strong's in a

0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:13.520
<v Speaker 9>range attack, it's all word of mouth.

0:15:13.600 --> 0:15:14.080
<v Speaker 2>Back there.

0:15:15.600 --> 0:15:17.680
<v Speaker 9>You had to meet a guy to just fought in

0:15:17.760 --> 0:15:22.200
<v Speaker 9>a rangutank and you're like, but the arms are skinny.

0:15:22.400 --> 0:15:24.400
<v Speaker 9>He's like, I know, that's what made me get in

0:15:24.440 --> 0:15:24.960
<v Speaker 9>there as well.

0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:36.760
<v Speaker 1>His abilities are awesome. Yeah, he's he's brilliant. His his

0:15:36.880 --> 0:15:42.200
<v Speaker 1>style is brilliant, very Mark twain ish. Yeah, I got somehow.

0:15:42.280 --> 0:15:44.360
<v Speaker 1>I got by watching a lot of his YouTube stuff.

0:15:44.400 --> 0:15:46.800
<v Speaker 1>I get his little short clips of all these different specials.

0:15:46.800 --> 0:15:51.000
<v Speaker 1>I watch him a lot. He's freaking brilliant. But that

0:15:51.120 --> 0:15:53.640
<v Speaker 1>whole topic, you know, a couple of weeks ago, is

0:15:53.680 --> 0:15:55.320
<v Speaker 1>just a huge conversation of could.

0:15:55.120 --> 0:15:59.400
<v Speaker 2>One hundred men beat a silver back gorilla? My thirteen

0:15:59.440 --> 0:16:00.640
<v Speaker 2>year old's obsessed with this.

0:16:00.760 --> 0:16:03.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't think I've come home from work one day

0:16:03.280 --> 0:16:06.560
<v Speaker 1>in the last two weeks where he says, here's another reason, Dad,

0:16:06.600 --> 0:16:08.160
<v Speaker 1>why the one hundred men would win.

0:16:08.240 --> 0:16:10.600
<v Speaker 2>Because he's I'm big, I'm on the side of the

0:16:11.040 --> 0:16:11.600
<v Speaker 2>silver back.

0:16:12.520 --> 0:16:15.320
<v Speaker 1>We really have, We've had We've had to boil this

0:16:15.440 --> 0:16:19.840
<v Speaker 1>down because it's an everyday conversation and I'm not exaggerating. Wow,

0:16:20.480 --> 0:16:22.880
<v Speaker 1>he makes the point, and I will grant this that

0:16:22.960 --> 0:16:26.840
<v Speaker 1>you have to assume the men are are motivated to

0:16:26.880 --> 0:16:29.040
<v Speaker 1>fight to the death, because I'm kind of assuming. It's

0:16:29.080 --> 0:16:32.920
<v Speaker 1>like Nate Bargatzi's like you're at a state fair kind

0:16:32.920 --> 0:16:37.280
<v Speaker 1>of for fun thing, where my theory is the first

0:16:37.400 --> 0:16:39.800
<v Speaker 1>ten guys get their arms ripped off, and then the

0:16:39.840 --> 0:16:42.720
<v Speaker 1>other ninety guys say I'm out. But if you did

0:16:42.760 --> 0:16:45.480
<v Speaker 1>present it, it's like to save your babies or something

0:16:45.560 --> 0:16:47.480
<v Speaker 1>like that. I do think one hundred men probably could

0:16:47.480 --> 0:16:50.280
<v Speaker 1>overwhelm a silver back, with some of them willing to

0:16:50.320 --> 0:16:52.920
<v Speaker 1>die for the cause.

0:16:53.240 --> 0:16:55.080
<v Speaker 2>And they most certainly would and they would.

0:16:55.240 --> 0:16:58.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yes, all right, But my son's big point is

0:16:58.320 --> 0:16:59.960
<v Speaker 1>that they expend their energy very quickly.

0:17:00.120 --> 0:17:03.360
<v Speaker 2>Most gorilla fights last like thirty seconds total. Grilla fight,

0:17:03.440 --> 0:17:07.399
<v Speaker 2>gorrilla fight, Armstrong and getty.

0:17:08.720 --> 0:17:11.920
<v Speaker 1>I know Mayor Pete said he wishes he could go back.

0:17:11.720 --> 0:17:14.760
<v Speaker 2>In time and open the schools in twenty twenty.

0:17:15.640 --> 0:17:18.640
<v Speaker 1>Dude, if you could time travel, why not go back

0:17:18.640 --> 0:17:21.760
<v Speaker 1>to twenty eighteen and give thosein WU handsome gloves.

0:17:24.320 --> 0:17:27.360
<v Speaker 2>That's an excellent point. That's when a gut Felt's best

0:17:27.520 --> 0:17:30.040
<v Speaker 2>jokes ever a good point.

0:17:30.359 --> 0:17:32.399
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, if you ever started to the boy, if I

0:17:32.400 --> 0:17:35.080
<v Speaker 1>could do it over again, you probably could go back

0:17:35.119 --> 0:17:39.560
<v Speaker 1>significantly earlier than whatever you're talking about and do bunches

0:17:39.600 --> 0:17:40.480
<v Speaker 1>of things differently.

0:17:42.920 --> 0:17:44.399
<v Speaker 2>For some reason this reminded me.

0:17:44.480 --> 0:17:48.359
<v Speaker 1>I just saw up on the television that freaking pompous

0:17:48.400 --> 0:17:51.920
<v Speaker 1>new Harvard president speaking at the graduation yesterday.

0:17:51.920 --> 0:17:53.080
<v Speaker 2>Maybe we have the audio on that.

0:17:53.160 --> 0:17:56.360
<v Speaker 1>But anyway, he stood up there and did some resistant speech,

0:17:56.960 --> 0:17:59.840
<v Speaker 1>We are proud of our foreign students and all the

0:18:00.080 --> 0:18:03.679
<v Speaker 1>everybody cheered and everything like that, and we will be

0:18:03.760 --> 0:18:06.320
<v Speaker 1>an academic freedom will be at the first one. And

0:18:06.400 --> 0:18:09.560
<v Speaker 1>everybody cheered because he's standing up to Trump. Oh, they're

0:18:09.640 --> 0:18:14.880
<v Speaker 1>so into academic freedom at anybody.

0:18:13.720 --> 0:18:14.160
<v Speaker 2>In the meat.

0:18:14.400 --> 0:18:15.920
<v Speaker 1>So they played that. That was like one of the

0:18:16.000 --> 0:18:19.360
<v Speaker 1>lead stories on all the newscasts last night and this

0:18:19.440 --> 0:18:22.520
<v Speaker 1>morning because it's the Harvard president standing up to Trump.

0:18:22.640 --> 0:18:25.360
<v Speaker 2>Any of y'all want to mention that Harvard.

0:18:24.960 --> 0:18:30.680
<v Speaker 1>Finished last last place in terms of academic freedom last

0:18:30.760 --> 0:18:34.440
<v Speaker 1>year in the studies on that and their own study

0:18:34.720 --> 0:18:37.959
<v Speaker 1>about anti semitism was horrific.

0:18:38.680 --> 0:18:42.760
<v Speaker 2>It's rampant, is our conclusion. Yes, it's rampant. Anybody want

0:18:42.760 --> 0:18:43.520
<v Speaker 2>to point that out.

0:18:43.720 --> 0:18:47.399
<v Speaker 1>Well, you're playing the president of Harvard and the cheers

0:18:47.400 --> 0:18:49.240
<v Speaker 1>he gets for saying how great Harvard is.

0:18:49.440 --> 0:18:49.680
<v Speaker 4>God.

0:18:49.720 --> 0:18:53.679
<v Speaker 3>That makes me mad. That is egregious. And I'm so

0:18:53.720 --> 0:18:56.680
<v Speaker 3>glad you pointed that out. Last place in fire dot

0:18:56.760 --> 0:18:57.960
<v Speaker 3>org's survey.

0:18:58.119 --> 0:19:01.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, wow, anyway, that's stunning. Didn't mean to get off

0:19:01.440 --> 0:19:03.560
<v Speaker 2>on that rant.

0:19:03.800 --> 0:19:06.399
<v Speaker 1>It's a good rent worth ranting. Maybe you'll enjoy this.

0:19:06.520 --> 0:19:10.240
<v Speaker 1>So Jake Tapper, you know he's got the book out.

0:19:10.240 --> 0:19:13.720
<v Speaker 1>He also does a show every afternoon on CNN. He

0:19:13.840 --> 0:19:20.320
<v Speaker 1>had his lowest ratings since twenty fifteen, despite the Biden

0:19:20.400 --> 0:19:22.919
<v Speaker 1>book buzz that he's getting. So I'm I got to

0:19:22.920 --> 0:19:25.760
<v Speaker 1>assume there was some hope that with his name being

0:19:25.800 --> 0:19:28.240
<v Speaker 1>everywhere and him being on every show in the world

0:19:28.280 --> 0:19:30.679
<v Speaker 1>and talking about the fact, here's Jake Tapper, host of

0:19:30.680 --> 0:19:34.199
<v Speaker 1>the Jake Tapper The Lead every afternoon, the lowest ratings

0:19:34.240 --> 0:19:39.720
<v Speaker 1>in a decade, and the ratings are hilariously low. The

0:19:39.840 --> 0:19:43.000
<v Speaker 1>Lead with Jake Tapper averaged about a half million total

0:19:43.119 --> 0:19:46.919
<v Speaker 1>viewers April twenty eight through May twenty eight, fifth, shedding

0:19:46.960 --> 0:19:51.640
<v Speaker 1>a quarter of their audience from a year ago. By

0:19:51.680 --> 0:19:53.800
<v Speaker 1>the way, Brett Baar in the same time slot has

0:19:53.880 --> 0:19:57.679
<v Speaker 1>three point three million. MSNBC even has significantly more. When

0:19:57.720 --> 0:20:01.600
<v Speaker 1>you're losing MSNBC, you're in trouble. But that's overall viewers,

0:20:01.600 --> 0:20:04.200
<v Speaker 1>including a whole bunch of old people that the adversiers

0:20:04.240 --> 0:20:07.240
<v Speaker 1>don't care about. In the coveted demo, that is why

0:20:07.320 --> 0:20:09.920
<v Speaker 1>you get hired to be on the radio or television.

0:20:10.080 --> 0:20:13.639
<v Speaker 1>Of twenty five to fifty four, he averaged ninety five

0:20:13.880 --> 0:20:18.360
<v Speaker 1>thousand viewers for a nationwide television program.

0:20:18.640 --> 0:20:20.200
<v Speaker 2>Right, how does he earn his money?

0:20:20.240 --> 0:20:23.480
<v Speaker 1>Because I know he gets paid many millions of dollars. Yeah,

0:20:23.520 --> 0:20:28.639
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how DVRs and YouTube TV, you know,

0:20:28.680 --> 0:20:30.680
<v Speaker 1>because I watch almost nothing live.

0:20:32.000 --> 0:20:34.200
<v Speaker 3>I don't know how that works these days. I wonder

0:20:34.200 --> 0:20:35.760
<v Speaker 3>if there's more to it than that.

0:20:36.000 --> 0:20:39.280
<v Speaker 1>But the lead with Jake Tapper wasn't the only CNN

0:20:39.320 --> 0:20:42.800
<v Speaker 1>offering to struggle. The network had its second worst month

0:20:43.480 --> 0:20:47.800
<v Speaker 1>ever in the money demo across both total day and

0:20:47.880 --> 0:20:50.960
<v Speaker 1>prime time during May, second worst month they've ever had

0:20:51.440 --> 0:20:52.840
<v Speaker 1>in the advertising demo.

0:20:53.320 --> 0:20:57.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you seeing, it's dying. Their model of everything they

0:20:57.320 --> 0:21:00.640
<v Speaker 3>do is just broken. That they're the sort of people

0:21:00.680 --> 0:21:03.439
<v Speaker 3>who are in charge at the very top and throughout

0:21:03.440 --> 0:21:06.080
<v Speaker 3>the organization down to the anchors and anchor ats. They

0:21:06.119 --> 0:21:10.960
<v Speaker 3>all have a particular mindset and it's you know, manifest

0:21:11.000 --> 0:21:15.080
<v Speaker 3>in Jake Tapper thinking that when he and Alex Thompson

0:21:15.119 --> 0:21:17.880
<v Speaker 3>unleased this book, they would be hailed as truth tellers

0:21:17.960 --> 0:21:23.800
<v Speaker 3>and revealers of great wisdom, and in fact they're a punchline.

0:21:23.880 --> 0:21:28.560
<v Speaker 3>They are so out of touch not only with you know,

0:21:28.640 --> 0:21:31.920
<v Speaker 3>the American people, but there's such an odd breed of duck,

0:21:32.480 --> 0:21:35.800
<v Speaker 3>those Northeastern media elites. They just don't see life the

0:21:35.800 --> 0:21:38.800
<v Speaker 3>way most of us see it. And now that there

0:21:38.840 --> 0:21:42.400
<v Speaker 3>are alternatives available, people are flocking to the alternatives.

0:21:43.200 --> 0:21:45.480
<v Speaker 1>So one of the headlines today is that there is

0:21:45.520 --> 0:21:49.840
<v Speaker 1>a ceasefire agreement that the US is brokeered.

0:21:51.560 --> 0:21:53.760
<v Speaker 2>Hopefully between Israel Hamas.

0:21:53.920 --> 0:21:56.119
<v Speaker 1>Egypt is on board with the United States and are

0:21:56.280 --> 0:21:59.520
<v Speaker 1>everybody's signed up onto it except for Hamas, who is

0:21:59.560 --> 0:22:03.719
<v Speaker 1>not happy with the possible cease fire deal, which has

0:22:03.760 --> 0:22:06.160
<v Speaker 1>been the case since the whole damn thing started, because

0:22:06.160 --> 0:22:09.359
<v Speaker 1>they don't actually want to give the hostages back for

0:22:09.440 --> 0:22:12.520
<v Speaker 1>one thing. Then you add the other day when Israel

0:22:12.800 --> 0:22:14.720
<v Speaker 1>was dropping off a bunch of food there to the

0:22:14.760 --> 0:22:19.080
<v Speaker 1>starven Palestinians, and a whole bunch of shots rang out,

0:22:19.119 --> 0:22:23.040
<v Speaker 1>and nobody sure still whether it was Hamas shooting or

0:22:23.320 --> 0:22:26.440
<v Speaker 1>Israeli soldiers or other Palestinians or whoever.

0:22:26.520 --> 0:22:28.520
<v Speaker 2>So that's still a mess. Now.

0:22:28.880 --> 0:22:31.600
<v Speaker 1>You might have seen the headlines a week ago where

0:22:32.920 --> 0:22:38.600
<v Speaker 1>various Hamas adjacent news organizations were saying, I forget what

0:22:38.680 --> 0:22:42.320
<v Speaker 1>the number was, it was like four thousand babies were

0:22:42.320 --> 0:22:44.119
<v Speaker 1>going to die in the next forty eight hours. It

0:22:44.160 --> 0:22:47.399
<v Speaker 1>was some horrific number. Yeah, did that ever happen or not?

0:22:47.640 --> 0:22:50.280
<v Speaker 1>I assumed that that was. It was being taken as

0:22:50.400 --> 0:22:54.040
<v Speaker 1>fact from a very sketchy organization, but reprinted everywhere.

0:22:54.119 --> 0:22:54.520
<v Speaker 2>Anyway.

0:22:54.720 --> 0:22:57.159
<v Speaker 1>I use all that as a setup to this the

0:22:57.520 --> 0:23:01.119
<v Speaker 1>one American hostage that it was really least fairly recently.

0:23:01.160 --> 0:23:03.240
<v Speaker 1>And he gives all the credit to Trump. He says

0:23:03.280 --> 0:23:04.800
<v Speaker 1>he would not have gotten out if Trump had been

0:23:04.880 --> 0:23:08.080
<v Speaker 1>elected president, which I'm sure Trump appreciated that. He was

0:23:08.119 --> 0:23:11.199
<v Speaker 1>talking about how he was fed. He said, I remember

0:23:11.240 --> 0:23:14.040
<v Speaker 1>walking by a room in the tunnel seeing a big

0:23:14.080 --> 0:23:17.560
<v Speaker 1>amount of feud, huge food, huge amounts of food. I

0:23:17.640 --> 0:23:20.359
<v Speaker 1>was being starved, There's no questions about it. For the

0:23:20.400 --> 0:23:24.640
<v Speaker 1>majority of his five hundred and five days in captivity. Man,

0:23:24.680 --> 0:23:26.479
<v Speaker 1>that's a long time when you got to think at

0:23:26.480 --> 0:23:29.120
<v Speaker 1>any time they might come a rape you to death,

0:23:29.160 --> 0:23:32.600
<v Speaker 1>cut your head off, whatever. Five hundred and five days

0:23:32.640 --> 0:23:38.200
<v Speaker 1>he survived on one biscuit and salty water. That's all

0:23:38.200 --> 0:23:41.240
<v Speaker 1>he had every day, salty water and one biscuit. He

0:23:41.320 --> 0:23:44.880
<v Speaker 1>lost over fifty pounds. They were starving a week in him,

0:23:44.920 --> 0:23:49.160
<v Speaker 1>so he couldn't yeah escape or die. Yeah, yep, Hey,

0:23:49.200 --> 0:23:51.160
<v Speaker 1>getting back a little bit to something you said about

0:23:51.160 --> 0:23:54.800
<v Speaker 1>the so called peace process and the peace deal that

0:23:54.840 --> 0:23:56.880
<v Speaker 1>I think you expressed hope it will go nowhere.

0:23:57.880 --> 0:23:59.520
<v Speaker 2>It's a red herring.

0:24:00.000 --> 0:24:03.320
<v Speaker 3>There is no chance that will result in anything significant.

0:24:03.440 --> 0:24:08.080
<v Speaker 3>Steve Whitkoff is wasting his time. Hamas is negotiating circles

0:24:08.119 --> 0:24:11.359
<v Speaker 3>around him, and none of the parties are interested. This

0:24:11.520 --> 0:24:14.520
<v Speaker 3>is all silly for domestic consumption.

0:24:15.000 --> 0:24:17.040
<v Speaker 1>We wait couple of headlines for God, We've got two

0:24:17.040 --> 0:24:19.480
<v Speaker 1>of those going on right, Russia and Ukraine and Israel

0:24:19.520 --> 0:24:22.320
<v Speaker 1>Hamass articular don't actually exist.

0:24:22.920 --> 0:24:25.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, they're both. They're all shrades.

0:24:25.280 --> 0:24:29.119
<v Speaker 3>They're they're puppet shows to amuse the domestic population in

0:24:29.119 --> 0:24:31.399
<v Speaker 3>the US, I think, or something Trump wants to be

0:24:31.440 --> 0:24:32.159
<v Speaker 3>seen as trying.

0:24:32.200 --> 0:24:34.520
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, and I don't find puppet shows that musing.

0:24:35.320 --> 0:24:38.439
<v Speaker 3>Not since I was like four, had a couple of

0:24:38.440 --> 0:24:42.680
<v Speaker 3>headlines for you with Israeli in Tel Lebanon is dismantling

0:24:42.800 --> 0:24:47.480
<v Speaker 3>Hesbola in the South. The progress is helping keep a

0:24:47.520 --> 0:24:50.280
<v Speaker 3>fragile ceasefire intact. The question is how far will it go?

0:24:50.359 --> 0:24:54.040
<v Speaker 3>If you're not familiar with the situation. Lebanon, Hezbola is

0:24:54.080 --> 0:24:58.520
<v Speaker 3>a major political party with an army in Beirut.

0:24:58.680 --> 0:25:02.120
<v Speaker 2>In Lebanon, i should say, and it.

0:25:02.080 --> 0:25:07.400
<v Speaker 3>Has coexisted extremely uneasily with the Lebanese government.

0:25:08.000 --> 0:25:10.040
<v Speaker 2>And now thanks to.

0:25:10.240 --> 0:25:17.160
<v Speaker 1>Israel's help those nasty, nasty Zionist Jews, the Lebanese government

0:25:17.400 --> 0:25:21.879
<v Speaker 1>is getting close to having a monopoly on heavy arms,

0:25:22.400 --> 0:25:26.639
<v Speaker 1>being having the only army in their own country. Lebanon

0:25:26.920 --> 0:25:32.600
<v Speaker 1>could become a peaceful, prosperous country with Israel's help. And

0:25:32.640 --> 0:25:37.760
<v Speaker 1>they are squarely, if quietly, in the camp of helping

0:25:37.840 --> 0:25:39.800
<v Speaker 1>Israel because they know who's a.

0:25:39.720 --> 0:25:40.480
<v Speaker 2>Force for good.

0:25:40.800 --> 0:25:43.840
<v Speaker 3>Israel is the Islamists in their region, for the lives

0:25:43.840 --> 0:25:44.639
<v Speaker 3>of their people.

0:25:44.920 --> 0:25:48.160
<v Speaker 1>Lebanon, which was once one of the great fun countries

0:25:48.160 --> 0:25:50.760
<v Speaker 1>in the world. And one of my cancer doctors was

0:25:50.760 --> 0:25:53.040
<v Speaker 1>from Lebanon. He had he had left there, his parents

0:25:53.840 --> 0:25:56.359
<v Speaker 1>were still there, and he talked about how great it

0:25:56.440 --> 0:25:59.439
<v Speaker 1>was many many years ago a route the Paris of

0:25:59.480 --> 0:26:00.920
<v Speaker 1>the Levanter.

0:26:01.240 --> 0:26:03.040
<v Speaker 2>I can't remain with him, could be again soon.

0:26:03.600 --> 0:26:06.679
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, here's another headline, just to give you a little perspective.

0:26:06.720 --> 0:26:08.920
<v Speaker 2>This is dateline tel Aviv.

0:26:09.760 --> 0:26:14.480
<v Speaker 1>Netnah Who's Gaza war plan shows lack of serious intent

0:26:14.720 --> 0:26:20.439
<v Speaker 1>to defeat Hamas says coalition lawmakers understand as we're hearing

0:26:20.520 --> 0:26:23.199
<v Speaker 1>the American media and Locksteps saying we've got to have

0:26:23.600 --> 0:26:25.800
<v Speaker 1>a peace plant, We've got to have a ceasefire.

0:26:26.280 --> 0:26:27.680
<v Speaker 2>Israel's got to stop.

0:26:28.240 --> 0:26:32.560
<v Speaker 3>Meanwhile, in Israel, seven lawmakers from Netanyah, who's ruling coalition,

0:26:33.000 --> 0:26:35.720
<v Speaker 3>say the war plan does not reflect a serious intent

0:26:36.000 --> 0:26:39.960
<v Speaker 3>to defeat Hamas and achieve victory. You're not serious enough

0:26:39.960 --> 0:26:44.480
<v Speaker 3>about defeating Hamas yet, they're telling Net and Yahoo. Now,

0:26:44.600 --> 0:26:48.359
<v Speaker 3>certainly there are peace nicks in Israel, leftists who believe

0:26:48.560 --> 0:26:52.080
<v Speaker 3>the two state solution can work, that we can live

0:26:52.119 --> 0:26:55.640
<v Speaker 3>side by side with the Palestinian slash Hamas.

0:26:55.680 --> 0:26:56.440
<v Speaker 2>I think they're.

0:26:56.280 --> 0:26:59.320
<v Speaker 3>Insane, but they get to express themselves. It's their country,

0:26:59.440 --> 0:27:03.320
<v Speaker 3>so understand. Over in Israel, there are plenty of people

0:27:03.359 --> 0:27:07.080
<v Speaker 3>saying we're not being tough enough on Hamas. And finally,

0:27:07.080 --> 0:27:10.720
<v Speaker 3>this headline new US plan to pause Gaza war draws

0:27:10.760 --> 0:27:14.800
<v Speaker 3>Hamas criticism. This is what Jack was talking about. Hamas

0:27:14.880 --> 0:27:19.320
<v Speaker 3>is rejecting this cease fire which Israel has agreed to,

0:27:19.600 --> 0:27:23.400
<v Speaker 3>because Hamas says it doesn't end the war, to which

0:27:23.480 --> 0:27:25.280
<v Speaker 3>Israel says, no, we're not going to end the war

0:27:25.359 --> 0:27:29.480
<v Speaker 3>until you're completely defeated. There is no peace process. This

0:27:29.560 --> 0:27:34.000
<v Speaker 3>is a joke. Can we stop? I've said this many times.

0:27:34.080 --> 0:27:38.040
<v Speaker 3>I have not been budged an inch from this. We

0:27:38.200 --> 0:27:42.639
<v Speaker 3>are watching, for one of the first times ever a

0:27:42.760 --> 0:27:47.159
<v Speaker 3>country go for what every country has gone for in

0:27:47.240 --> 0:27:49.399
<v Speaker 3>warfare practically from the beginning of time.

0:27:50.040 --> 0:27:51.240
<v Speaker 2>That's total victory.

0:27:51.880 --> 0:27:54.679
<v Speaker 3>We've just never seen it in the internet video age

0:27:54.760 --> 0:27:57.480
<v Speaker 3>in the developed world. It's happening in Africa like crazy

0:27:57.560 --> 0:28:01.320
<v Speaker 3>right now, but nobody's paying any attention in Yemen.

0:28:01.200 --> 0:28:03.280
<v Speaker 2>Please more Arabs.

0:28:03.480 --> 0:28:08.280
<v Speaker 1>Muslims have been slaughtered in Yemen and starved and tortured

0:28:08.880 --> 0:28:09.440
<v Speaker 1>than in.

0:28:10.440 --> 0:28:12.520
<v Speaker 2>Gaza by multiples.

0:28:12.520 --> 0:28:16.679
<v Speaker 3>But new college students are demonstrating on their behalf because

0:28:16.680 --> 0:28:19.960
<v Speaker 3>it's Muslims killing Muslims. It's only when the evil Jew

0:28:20.080 --> 0:28:22.840
<v Speaker 3>is involved that the college students get up in arms.

0:28:22.880 --> 0:28:28.840
<v Speaker 3>It's incredibly revealing. Anyway, Israel's going to defeat Hamas completely.

0:28:28.920 --> 0:28:31.520
<v Speaker 3>It's going to be extremely ugly to watch, in the

0:28:31.560 --> 0:28:34.359
<v Speaker 3>way that every total victory has been extremely ugly in

0:28:34.400 --> 0:28:35.760
<v Speaker 3>the history of mankind.

0:28:37.640 --> 0:28:41.480
<v Speaker 1>So, as Mark Apperton said on his show this morning,

0:28:41.680 --> 0:28:44.040
<v Speaker 1>the New York Times seems to be hell bent on

0:28:44.200 --> 0:28:48.280
<v Speaker 1>driving a wedge between Elon Musk and Donald Trump as

0:28:48.320 --> 0:28:53.760
<v Speaker 1>they just endlessly write stories and exaggerate. Everybody in the

0:28:53.800 --> 0:28:57.160
<v Speaker 1>news exaggerated the whole. Elon Musk very unhappy with the

0:28:57.520 --> 0:28:59.400
<v Speaker 1>Trump Administration's Big Beautiful Bill.

0:29:00.000 --> 0:29:00.440
<v Speaker 2>He played the.

0:30:14.440 --> 0:30:18.720
<v Speaker 1>calling Hailey Bieber Justin Bieber's wife and start calling Justin

0:30:18.760 --> 0:30:24.719
<v Speaker 1>Bieber Hailey Bieber's husband, because she is now the breadwinner.

0:30:24.720 --> 0:30:27.240
<v Speaker 2>He's broke. If you've been following that story, she just

<v Speaker 1>Justin Bieber.

0:30:47.040 --> 0:30:49.400
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, so she's the breadwinner now. Interesting.

0:30:49.920 --> 0:30:53.320
<v Speaker 1>They should have kids, They should have really spectacularly. You

<v Speaker 1>you three people completely blind from looking at Bieber's kids.

0:31:04.600 --> 0:31:06.360
<v Speaker 1>You never know if something's true just because it's in

0:31:06.400 --> 0:31:10.280
<v Speaker 1>the New York Times. This was passed along by Noah

0:31:10.440 --> 0:31:13.840
<v Speaker 1>Rothman of National Review though, so he not usually a

0:31:13.880 --> 0:31:14.880
<v Speaker 1>kind of guy that's.

0:31:15.520 --> 0:31:18.760
<v Speaker 2>Oh, passing along crap, agreed. Yeah.

0:31:18.840 --> 0:31:21.120
<v Speaker 1>New York Times big story about Elon Musk. They had

0:31:21.160 --> 0:31:24.040
<v Speaker 1>five reporters on it the day before last included this.

0:31:25.240 --> 0:31:29.880
<v Speaker 1>Mister Musk's drug consumption went well beyond occasional use. He

0:31:29.960 --> 0:31:32.920
<v Speaker 1>told people he was taking so much ketamine. That's the

0:31:32.920 --> 0:31:38.560
<v Speaker 1>stuff that killed the chandler right maybe yeah, caused him

0:31:38.560 --> 0:31:41.280
<v Speaker 1>to drown. He told people he was taking so much ketamine,

0:31:41.320 --> 0:31:44.600
<v Speaker 1>a powerful anesthetic, that it was affecting his bladder, a

0:31:44.640 --> 0:31:48.320
<v Speaker 1>known effective chronic use. He took ecstasy and psychedelic mushrooms,

0:31:48.400 --> 0:31:51.400
<v Speaker 1>and he traveled with a daily medication box that held

0:31:51.440 --> 0:31:54.200
<v Speaker 1>about twenty pills, including ones with the markings of the

0:31:54.200 --> 0:31:58.040
<v Speaker 1>stimulant adderall according to a photo of the box and people.

0:31:57.760 --> 0:32:01.080
<v Speaker 3>Who have seen it, I could I absolutely see him

0:32:01.120 --> 0:32:04.040
<v Speaker 3>take an adderall which is you know, is for ADHD.

0:32:04.280 --> 0:32:07.080
<v Speaker 1>You got thirteen kids under the age of ten, Yeah,

0:32:07.120 --> 0:32:07.800
<v Speaker 1>I need something.

0:32:08.760 --> 0:32:11.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Like they're running around this house and he's tending them.

0:32:11.400 --> 0:32:12.120
<v Speaker 2>He's trying to get.

0:32:12.000 --> 0:32:15.000
<v Speaker 1>Him ready for school, packing lunches, gotta drop them off.

0:32:15.120 --> 0:32:19.840
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, little laterall with sure helpt mean hilarious.

0:32:20.000 --> 0:32:22.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you think you think.

0:32:22.280 --> 0:32:25.120
<v Speaker 1>He's able to do all this rocket stuff and dose

0:32:25.240 --> 0:32:30.240
<v Speaker 1>stuff and run Tesla and everything. Being eye on mushrooms

0:32:30.240 --> 0:32:33.000
<v Speaker 1>and ketamine. It would not surprise me.

0:32:33.080 --> 0:32:34.920
<v Speaker 3>It does not surprise me in the least to hear

0:32:35.000 --> 0:32:38.640
<v Speaker 3>that a guy with a brain like his self medicates

0:32:39.680 --> 0:32:42.800
<v Speaker 3>in various ways. I'm not shocked to hear that at all.

0:32:43.160 --> 0:32:45.440
<v Speaker 3>I hope I can't even imagine what it's like in

0:32:45.480 --> 0:32:50.600
<v Speaker 3>his brain. I hope it's not a situation that well,

0:32:50.600 --> 0:32:53.280
<v Speaker 3>it certainly could get out of control see Chandler being

0:32:53.800 --> 0:32:57.440
<v Speaker 3>But I hope it doesn't get out of control. Yeah,

0:32:57.480 --> 0:33:00.600
<v Speaker 3>because me, you know, I really want to see what

0:33:00.640 --> 0:33:06.440
<v Speaker 3>he can pull off. Ian Bremer who hated Doge, but

0:33:06.480 --> 0:33:08.320
<v Speaker 3>I was reading one of his tweets yesterday and he said,

0:33:09.880 --> 0:33:12.120
<v Speaker 3>I'm glad to see Elon going back into the private sector.

0:33:12.160 --> 0:33:14.360
<v Speaker 3>For anybody doesn't like Elon Musk, you can't deny that

0:33:14.400 --> 0:33:16.800
<v Speaker 3>he's one of the greatest entrepreneurs in the history of

0:33:16.840 --> 0:33:17.280
<v Speaker 3>the world.

0:33:17.920 --> 0:33:21.440
<v Speaker 1>Sure, he absolutely is. And he's only fifty three or

0:33:21.480 --> 0:33:23.280
<v Speaker 1>whatever he is. He's got a long way to go

0:33:24.480 --> 0:33:28.160
<v Speaker 1>if he doesn't die Aketemy all right, Yeah, I think

0:33:28.200 --> 0:33:31.280
<v Speaker 1>he's half nuts. I also think he is a combination

0:33:31.400 --> 0:33:37.000
<v Speaker 1>of Galileo and JD. Rockefeller or Andrew Carnegie or somebody

0:33:37.080 --> 0:33:41.120
<v Speaker 1>like that. Is an amazing human being. But it wouldn't

0:33:41.120 --> 0:33:43.040
<v Speaker 1>shock me if he's self medicated. He might be closer

0:33:43.120 --> 0:33:45.120
<v Speaker 1>to like a Leonardo da Vinci. I don't know, but

0:33:45.600 --> 0:33:49.840
<v Speaker 1>he is absolutely something. Yeah, I was going to ask

0:33:49.920 --> 0:33:50.440
<v Speaker 1>you about.

0:33:50.520 --> 0:33:51.800
<v Speaker 2>Oh, you brought this up the other day.

0:33:51.840 --> 0:33:54.320
<v Speaker 1>I think the new Wes Anderson film that's out called

0:33:54.360 --> 0:33:58.120
<v Speaker 1>The Phoenician Scheme. If you haven't seen the trailer, the

0:33:58.160 --> 0:34:02.880
<v Speaker 1>trailer looks really like, uh compelling, It's got like every

0:34:02.920 --> 0:34:04.640
<v Speaker 1>movie star you've ever heard of in your.

0:34:04.560 --> 0:34:05.160
<v Speaker 2>Life in it.

0:34:05.400 --> 0:34:10.440
<v Speaker 3>But cast is insane, artsy. People love them or hate him.

0:34:10.600 --> 0:34:13.560
<v Speaker 3>They love Wes Anderson, Anderson being in his movies. Some

0:34:13.800 --> 0:34:15.960
<v Speaker 3>if you love Wes Anderson, it's like you know certain

0:34:16.040 --> 0:34:19.400
<v Speaker 3>bands that either love them or you don't. I can't

0:34:19.400 --> 0:34:24.000
<v Speaker 3>love his movies enough. The Hotel Budapest, you know, Moonlight, Serenade,

0:34:24.680 --> 0:34:27.080
<v Speaker 3>Rushmore famously, which is breakthrough God.

0:34:27.120 --> 0:34:30.480
<v Speaker 1>I love Rushmore. Yeah, what's the one with Gene Hackman?

0:34:32.320 --> 0:34:34.319
<v Speaker 1>That one got mentioned a lot when Gene Hackman died

0:34:34.440 --> 0:34:39.520
<v Speaker 1>a little while back. Oh, the Royal Tenant Moms. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

0:34:40.080 --> 0:34:42.840
<v Speaker 1>what a kooky movie. But anyway, it's in theaters. It

0:34:42.880 --> 0:34:46.360
<v Speaker 1>seems like, because they're always so visually striking, that I

0:34:46.440 --> 0:34:47.640
<v Speaker 1>might like to see this in the theater.

0:34:47.719 --> 0:34:48.200
<v Speaker 2>But I don't know.

0:34:48.640 --> 0:34:50.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't see myself going to a movie by myself

0:34:50.880 --> 0:34:51.399
<v Speaker 1>and sitting there.

0:34:51.440 --> 0:34:54.480
<v Speaker 3>So I think I've come up with a perfect metaphor

0:34:54.800 --> 0:34:55.680
<v Speaker 3>for AI.

0:34:57.520 --> 0:34:59.879
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to rush through it though. We've got

0:34:59.880 --> 0:35:01.200
<v Speaker 1>to great report on.

0:35:01.680 --> 0:35:04.640
<v Speaker 3>Hey, this will leave the Rusher in an era of

0:35:04.719 --> 0:35:09.880
<v Speaker 3>peace and prosperity, or we'll all be dead. So plan accordingly, AI.

0:35:10.080 --> 0:35:11.960
<v Speaker 2>Where are we to kick off next hour?

0:35:12.040 --> 0:35:14.239
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it might happen within the next two years, so

0:35:14.840 --> 0:35:17.040
<v Speaker 1>that's nice. If you miss a segment, gets the podcast
