1 00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,639 Speaker 1: One of the federal judges blocking one of President Trump's 2 00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:15,360 Speaker 1: initiative in her brief cited a Broadway musical. Find out 3 00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:18,119 Speaker 1: which musical and what the judge is talking about. Also, 4 00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:21,800 Speaker 1: one of the prominent cities of Pride parades is having 5 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:24,440 Speaker 1: trouble finding sponsors. Oh, that is such a shame. We'll 6 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:28,360 Speaker 1: talk about that. And also Columbia finally bent the knee 7 00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 1: to the president after threatening to hold a bunch of 8 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:33,720 Speaker 1: money from the institution.

But before we 19 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,959 Speaker 1: get to any of those crazy stories, how about this 20 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 1: crazy story? Now, I like to think of Part of 21 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: my job is to watch some of the lib shows 22 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: that you don't want to watch for you, so I 23 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,399 Speaker 1: can relay what the libs are saying to you. And 24 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: part of that is watching shows like sixty Minutes, which 25 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 1: has been god awful over the last geez several years, 26 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: but really really terrible in the last several months, except 27 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 1: for Sunday. Now they did a bunch of stories and 28 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 1: not talking about all of those stories. What I am 29 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 1: talking about, specifically is the Canadian border. Sixty Minutes, not 30 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 1: Fox News, not a right wing conservative news media outlet, 31 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: did a big feature on the Canadian border and whether 32 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: or not cartels are snuggling fentanyl and human beings into 33 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 1: the United States from Canada. Now, this all hinges on 34 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: the premise that President Trump is issuing tariffs on a 35 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: man Erica's hat sorry Canada, in order to well stop 36 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 1: the flood of illegals and fentanyl into the country. Now, 37 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 1: a bunch of the libs are saying, well, that's not happening. 38 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: Oh no, this is not warranted, this doesn't need to happen. Well, 39 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 1: it turns out sixty Minutes, in their reporting said well, yeah, yes, 40 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 1: it is not only that cartel members are advertising get 41 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: this on TikTok, saying hey, you can come to the 42 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,119 Speaker 1: United States here, pay this. To pay this fee, we'll 43 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 1: get you into the United States. We'll but get you 44 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: through Canada. On top of that, sixty Minutes also outlined 45 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: that fentanyl is a big problem coming through Canada and 46 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, ultimately this feels like 47 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: something that we should all agree on. Got a pretty 48 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 1: long clip to play you from this Canadian sixty minutes piece, 49 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 1: But before we do that, I want to bring in 50 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: our panel for today with us today is Hannah Faulkner, 51 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 1: host of The Hannah Fawkner Show, and Mason Moossom, a 52 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: musician among many other talented things.

You know this is a wild story and also 64 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 1: feel like this is like not really a partisan thing, right, 65 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: This is everybody wants the border to be secure and 66 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: doesn't want Americans dying of fentanyl. Having said that, here's 67 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: a clip from the sixty minutes piece that I want 68 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: to play for you, and then we'll get your guys' 69 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: thoughts on this. Conservatives being proven right. Watch this. 70 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 4: Of men who just crossed the border ran to an 71 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 4: suv that drove them deeper into New York. You'll also 72 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 4: see a woman getting out of the car and go 73 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 4: north to Canada. This man told us he coordinated the 74 00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 4: handoff and took the video. 75 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 5: Tell us who you. 76 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 6: Work for for the Cineloa cartel. 77 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 4: He goes by the name Hovey and agreed to speak 78 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 4: with us only with his camera off. He said he 79 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 4: can't risk his identity being exposed. 80 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 3: How does this work? 81 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 4: They tell you where to go, They tell you how 82 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 4: many people you have to bring across each week. 83 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: To make exactly that's how it goes. 84 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 5: They provide the people. 85 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: They have more people who are behind all this looking 86 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: for customers, finding them and summoning them to certain locations. 87 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,119 Speaker 4: We found Hobby through his online ads, which he says 88 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 4: TikTok recently took down. In a conversation with our producer, 89 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,480 Speaker 4: he did briefly turn his camera on and allowed us 90 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 4: to record his masked face. While it's not possible to 91 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 4: verify everything, Hovey told us he sent these pictures of 92 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,599 Speaker 4: what he says are his guns as proof of his 93 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 4: ties to the Sinaloa cartel. A source in Canadian intelligence 94 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 4: told us Hobby's story is concerned distant with the cartel's 95 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 4: human and drug smuggling operations. 96 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: Jeez, yeah, wild and we don't want to make too 97 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: much light of this, but I it's fascinating, Hannah. I 98 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 1: want to start with you. So during COVID, if you 99 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:15,600 Speaker 1: even thought that, oh maybe the Chinese batfever came out 100 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: of a lab, you immediately got taken off of the 101 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: Internet social media as a whole. But now here the 102 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: cartels are able to advertise on TikTok until sixty minutes 103 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: uncovers it. Holy cal What kind of situation do we 104 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 1: find ourselves in here with this one? 105 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 7: Yeah? 106 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 2: Well, I mean you as you know, both of you 107 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 2: guys know, truth will always prevail in the end. I mean, 108 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 2: George Washington said, sometimes it takes a little pain to 109 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 2: bring truth to light. And this is the stuff that 110 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 2: we've been talking about for decades upon decades, as the 111 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 2: conservative movements, as the Party of truth, as the Party 112 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,160 Speaker 2: of common sense, and those that are acknowledging reality. I mean, 113 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,479 Speaker 2: it's crazy the things that we're even fighting for and 114 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 2: even having to talk about. Me the fact that thousands 115 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 2: upon thousands of pounds of fetnahl has been coming across 116 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 2: not just our southern border, but also our northern border, 117 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:02,919 Speaker 2: which many far right even entertainment and television shows, have 118 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 2: been refusing to talk about until just recently. 119 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 8: So this is a crisis. Finally the left is admitting it. 120 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 2: And we saw that really too with the gender quote 121 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 2: unquote affirming care, which is not general affirming care, because 122 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 2: if they're affirming it, they just tell you you're born 123 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:18,720 Speaker 2: a man, you always be a man, and vice versa. 124 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:20,600 Speaker 2: But we're starting to see all of these news networks 125 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 2: come out and say that, yes, these hospitals are in 126 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 2: fact performing these chemical castrations and surgeries on minors, when 127 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 2: what they've told us for a very long time is 128 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 2: that this is not happening. So yet again, the left 129 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 2: finally admitting their own failures. 130 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 5: In the truth. 131 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, that sounds sounds about right, Mason. You know again 132 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,359 Speaker 1: like not to drag you know, people into this like 133 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: hyper political, politicized conversation, but at the same time, like 134 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 1: this shouldn't really be that partisan, right, Like I think 135 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: we can all agree, like, hey, you know, you got 136 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 1: to have borders. Even Bernie Sanders agrees we have to 137 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: have borders. And two we don't want Americans dying from 138 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,679 Speaker 1: fentandyl Is that is that too difficult of a concept 139 00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: to try and convey. 140 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 9: No, And I totally agree with Hannah. I think a 141 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 9: lot of people are waking up too. I mean, obviously 142 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 9: not all, but you know, if you're not if you 143 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 9: don't come to this country legally, you're out. 144 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 3: Like it's pretty cut and dry, it's pretty simple. Yeah, 145 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:14,119 Speaker 3: I agree with Hannah. 146 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 9: I'm not sure why we're why this country even has 147 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 9: this debate, you know. 148 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 3: So, Yeah, the fal, the fendal is a big, a 149 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 3: big problem. 150 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 10: Uh. 151 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 3: I live over here in LA and it's it's absolutely devastating. 152 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's uh it It is wild to see kind 153 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: of how the media distorts how what is going on 154 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: in uh just well in front of everybody's eyes. We 155 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 1: all know what's happening, and finally, finally, sixty minutes not 156 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: a conservative media outlet decides to cover it. Speaking of 157 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: things that the media does not like covering, the media 158 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: loved covering a couple of weeks ago, when President Trump said, hey, 159 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 1: Columbia University, all of that money that we the federal 160 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: government gives you, that's going away unless you make some 161 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: big changes. Columbia has bent the knee to the Trump 162 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 1: administration and said, hey, here's all the things that we're 163 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: going to do to ensure that we get that money now. Mason, 164 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: I'm really curious about your thoughts on this because I 165 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 1: live in California. You live in California. In the arts world, 166 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: a lot of people in the art community are lefties, 167 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 1: but they're saying lefties in a lot of ways.

How much do 198 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: stories kind of like this and seeing what's going on 199 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 1: in college campus impact your day to day life and 200 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 1: probably the very near future for you. 201 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, man, I. 202 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,200 Speaker 2: Remember just traveling to a lot of these college campuses 203 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 2: across the country, even heading into the twenty twenty four election, 204 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 2: and talking to these college students. I mean, these are 205 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 2: literal indoctrination camps. If I've ever seen an indoctrination camp, 206 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 2: from elementary school, from five six years old to twenty 207 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 2: four to twenty five years old, these young people, these 208 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 2: students are being indoctrinated with all of these leftist ideologies. 209 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 8: And the thing that is the irony. 210 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 2: Of the whole situation are these you know, Palestine pro Palestine, 211 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:32,439 Speaker 2: pro terrorists protests that they're having on these college campuses. 212 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 2: Is they have these signs stating queers for Palestine or 213 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 2: feminists for Palestine, which is an oxymoron. If I've ever 214 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 2: seen an oxymoron. I've been down to the West Bank. 215 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 2: I've seen what the Gaza strip looks like. These women 216 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 2: are oppressed. There is no such thing as a feminist 217 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 2: in the Gaza strip. There is no such thing as 218 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 2: a gay person. Because I can assure you right now 219 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 2: that if you claim to be a homosexual or a 220 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 2: gay individual in the West Bank. 221 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 5: They will kill you. 222 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,439 Speaker 8: That is what they say in their Koran, and that's 223 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 8: what they stand on. 224 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 2: And if you want to be a woman with all 225 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,679 Speaker 2: of this woman power, you're not gonna be free. And 226 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 2: it's not gonna fly in front of these Islamic terrorists. 227 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 2: It's common sense, like Mason just said, we should be 228 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 2: calling them out for what they are. And it's insanity 229 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 2: to see these judges, these college faculty members, all of 230 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 2: these people across the country push back against common sense 231 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 2: moral standards in our society. But this is what happens 232 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 2: when you rejected God, when you were jacked morality, You're 233 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 2: gonna see consequences like this, including an entire generation that 234 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 2: is just brainwashed. 235 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 1: Laying down the hammer, bringing handle love it.

Now at the time we're recording this, there 254 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: has been no real corrective action.

I mean, 261 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 11: we haven't heard or seen any of President Trump's cabinet 262 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,839 Speaker 11: members or staffers time walking up and down Pebble Beach 263 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 11: as we know today so far, but we do know 264 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 11: that a lot of the messaging that's been coming out 265 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 11: of this. White House has been you know, on social media. 266 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 11: We've heard from Press Secretary Caroline Levitt saying that the 267 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 11: President will be standing by, you know, Mike Waltz for 268 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,319 Speaker 11: his you know, for this what really appears to be 269 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 11: a big mistake in adding this journalist to this group chat, 270 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 11: but she, you know, was reinforcing that no, you know, 271 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,199 Speaker 11: confidential information was leaked. There's no war plans that were 272 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:32,839 Speaker 11: being leaked. Trying to kind of regain the trust of 273 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 11: the American people after something like this has happened. And 274 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 11: of course we've heard from the Communications Director, Stephen Chung 275 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 11: as well, saying, you know, you know, this is not 276 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 11: a reason to be freaking out. You know, it's just 277 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 11: a simple mistake. We will be standing by Mike Walts. 278 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 11: The President says, you know, he made a mistake. You know, 279 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 11: he's learned from his mistake, and we're just going to 280 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 11: move on from this. But there's something to be said 281 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 11: about a situation like this because many people are kind 282 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:57,839 Speaker 11: of freaking out over the fact that this was held 283 00:13:57,880 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 11: in a signal group chat and not like on a 284 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 11: government server. A lot of people are also freaking out 285 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 11: about the fact that, you know, this this guy was 286 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 11: added to this chat and didn't say anything, you know immediately. 287 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 11: I mean, you're kind of caught between a rock and 288 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 11: a hard place because you have moral standards and then 289 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 11: you also have like your journalistic ethics. You know, if 290 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 11: I were added to a group chat like this, what 291 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 11: would be my first instinct to say, Hey, guys, I 292 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 11: think you might have added the wrong person, or you say, 293 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 11: you know, you don't say anything, and you just kind 294 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 11: of let things go and say, oh, this is going 295 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 11: to be great for my publication. So there's a lot 296 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 11: of different factors at play here, and it will be 297 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 11: interesting to see if or when the White House fully 298 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 11: you know, comes out to hear from the President himself. 299 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 11: I mean, we haven't had a press briefing yet. We 300 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 11: could definitely, you know, expect one had to happen at 301 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 11: some point this week. But the how Caroline level will 302 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 11: respond to this in the briefing room, in front of 303 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 11: a room full of reporters really jumping on this story 304 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 11: will be very interesting. 305 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, and we talked a little bit briefly earlier about 306 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 1: you know, this doesn't mean you know, you disagree with 307 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 1: the administration, but at the same time, you got to 308 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 1: hold people accountable even if you agree with them. President 309 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 1: Trump himself said, hey, this is this is really sloppy. 310 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 1: And so so with that being said, I guess kind 311 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: of you know, you being there at the White House 312 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 1: and kind of understanding more of the gravity and kind 313 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: of seriousness of a mistake like this. You know, I 314 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 1: hate to break your reporter slash journalistic temperament, but you know, 315 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: can you give us some of your own personal thoughts 316 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 1: on what this looks like? 317 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 3: Sure? 318 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 11: I mean, I mean, you can love this administration what 319 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 11: it's due for being American people, and you love this 320 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 11: White House, but it's important to also help people accountable 321 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 11: and even be critical of an administration that you love 322 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 11: because maybe you care. You know, it's always easy to 323 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 11: criticize an administration that you don't agree with, because it 324 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 11: just for the plain fact that it's easy. But when 325 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 11: you have reporters here who really don't agree with you 326 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 11: personally or have their own kind of set of standards 327 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 11: or ethics, it's just a bad look. 328 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 6: And if the. 329 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 11: Shoe were on the other foot, and if it were 330 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 11: you know, a more right leading organization in Joe Biden's 331 00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 11: as Stafford group chat, it would just look really bad 332 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 11: on all sides. So I think it's important to hold 333 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 11: people accountable, to your point, and it's important to you know, 334 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 11: be a little bit critical sometimes because you just want 335 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 11: the best for this country. 336 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, and as you said earlier, no decisions yet have 337 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 1: been made by the time where we're recording this with 338 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 1: Monica at the White House. But I guess we'll keep 339 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 1: our ear to the ground and see what happens. If 340 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: anything changes on your end, let the people know on 341 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 1: the social media platforms. But Monica Page, thanks so much 342 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: for joining us and giving us some insight. 343 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 11: Thanks for having me as always, Thank. 344 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 1: You always fun checking in with Monica Page twenty points, 345 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: White House Correspondent. You know, we've seen some pretty interesting 346 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 1: things now. We've all seen kind of the activist judges 347 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 1: blocking President Trump and what he's trying to do to 348 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 1: better the American people. But this, I thought was fascinating. Now. 349 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 1: We talked last week about a judge who was saying, no, 350 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,800 Speaker 1: you can't kick the transgenders out of the military, you 351 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: have to let them back in. Well, after all of 352 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: that hubba baloo, the seventy nine page brief was finally 353 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: gone through by people on the internet. And this came, 354 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 1: let's bring our panel back to talk about this. I 355 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 1: thought this was fascinating, hilarious and telling. In the seventy 356 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 1: nine page ruling blocking President Trump's executive order banning transgenders 357 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 1: from the military service, Judge Reyes referenced Hamilton the musical. 358 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 1: That's right, a Broadway musical, in a footnote where she 359 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 1: writes women were included in the sequel. Now it goes 360 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,199 Speaker 1: on to kind of explain where that is in the 361 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 1: actual play, But the bottom line is that the citation 362 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: comes from the Hamilton Broadway musical, which a federal judge 363 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 1: is citing in order to block the President of the 364 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 1: United States. Now, I'm not sure if they cited Book 365 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:49,400 Speaker 1: of Mormon or Wicked or any of the other musicals, 366 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:52,679 Speaker 1: because apparently that is that is just hard and fast 367 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:58,199 Speaker 1: law in the United States of America, you know, at 368 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 1: the risk of being too broad. What in the world 369 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 1: is going on here? 370 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:08,159 Speaker 2: Oh man, I am just appalled by the lack of 371 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 2: acknowledging reality of many of these judges and even lawyers. 372 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 8: In this country. I mean, I remember when I was 373 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 8: fourteen years old and I was job shadowing a judge, 374 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 8: and this judge was awesome. He was a common sense judge. 375 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 2: He understood the Constitution very well from the front to 376 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 2: the back. He knew his laws, he knew these rights, 377 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 2: and he knew what was best, and he wanted justice 378 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 2: for the citizens of his community and his district that 379 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 2: he was in. 380 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:33,359 Speaker 8: But I remember talking to a. 381 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 2: Lot of these lawyers and they had no idea what 382 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 2: the Constitution was. They couldn't even explain to me what 383 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,399 Speaker 2: the first Second Amendment thirty minute, fourth minute, fifth minute 384 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 2: meant to them as lawyers of this country. And now 385 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 2: you've seen people in these courtrooms. They don't even know 386 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 2: their biological sex. They don't even know whether or not 387 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:51,119 Speaker 2: they're male or female. 388 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 8: We've got judges like Keatanji Brown. 389 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 2: Jackson, a justice, a Supreme Court justice can't even define 390 00:18:56,520 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 2: what a woman is compares banning inter racial marriage to 391 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,399 Speaker 2: the banning of chemical castration and the mutilation of children. 392 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 2: I mean, now you've got judges, these, these federal judges 393 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 2: like the one you just mentioned, mentioning Broadway shows in 394 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 2: their briefs to justify that banning mentally ill individuals from 395 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 2: being able to fight on the front lines for this country. 396 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 8: It's common sense. These issues that we're fighting again. 397 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,479 Speaker 2: Like I said earlier, it's it's mind boggling that we're 398 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 2: fighting these issues and having these discussions. But you see 399 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 2: this from the left. I like to say that we're 400 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:26,919 Speaker 2: in a constitutional crisis right now. And I think it 401 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:30,159 Speaker 2: was Charlie Kirk actually that mentioned. Yeah, actually, we are 402 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 2: in a constitutional crisis, and it's all of these judges 403 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 2: that have completely. 404 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 8: Lost their mind. 405 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's wild. Hey Mason, there's actually we're just 406 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: getting this, you know, coming in right now. Another judge 407 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 1: has said, if she doesn't like this, will you do 408 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:50,120 Speaker 1: it like that? You know, quoting quoting your song? Obviously satire, 409 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 1: but actually genuinely, if a if a federal judge quoted 410 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:56,679 Speaker 1: one of your songs, would you charge them royalties? 411 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 9: Yeah, absolutely no, Joe, Bob. We're ruled by theater kids, man, 412 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 9: We're ruled by theater kids. And there's a reason why 413 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,640 Speaker 9: the Roman Empire had such a low opinion of actors, 414 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 9: and uh, you know, especially over here in La you know, 415 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 9: they get their their morals from musicals and movies and Hollywood, 416 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 9: and it's just it's not a good looks It's really 417 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 9: not a good look you know. 418 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I grew up with actors. 419 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:26,120 Speaker 3: My brother's an actor. I know, you know, actors. 420 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 9: And they all you know, to be an actor to 421 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 9: you know, and musicians too. 422 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:32,360 Speaker 3: You know, there's a little level of you. 423 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:37,880 Speaker 9: Know, you kind of have to have a little level 424 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 9: of narcissism about yourself and that's that and it's not 425 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 9: sometimes it can be toxic. So I don't Yeah, let's 426 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 9: not let's not get our morals from these people. 427 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, no, I couldn't agree more speaking of people 428 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 1: who do not get our morals from Uh, this is 429 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,119 Speaker 1: just this is just a shame. The organizer for the 430 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,200 Speaker 1: San Francisco Pride Parade has said they're about three hundred 431 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 1: thousand dollars short when a bunch of their sponsors pulled out, 432 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 1: which is just such so sad devastated by that. The 433 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 1: organizer says that part of the or some of the 434 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 1: companies that backed out were Comcast, Amheuser Busch, a wine 435 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: company called La Crema, and the company that makes guinnis 436 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 1: just devastating. Hannah, your thoughts on the difficulty that is 437 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 1: for one of the biggest pride festivals in the world 438 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,920 Speaker 1: finding sponsors for an event that's like still two months away. 439 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,439 Speaker 2: Oh man, it's devastating, but maybe it's a wake up 440 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 2: call to the woke, radical leftist communist Democrats, whatever you 441 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 2: want to call them, that are losing voters losing supporters 442 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 2: every single day. I mean, you guys saw what happened 443 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:46,680 Speaker 2: with bud Light losing billions of dollars in stocks because 444 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,359 Speaker 2: they did not reach the right audience. They understand that 445 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 2: putting a man Dylan mulvany who thinks he's a woman 446 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,280 Speaker 2: and is in whatever day of girlhood that he is just. 447 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 8: Mocking women on the internet isn't going to. 448 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 2: Match the redneck racers and those want to go camping 449 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:02,640 Speaker 2: at drink their bud Light here. 450 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 8: It's not going to match them. 451 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 2: And so I think these people have completely lost touch 452 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:08,479 Speaker 2: with the American people. And these companies are waking up 453 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 2: that they're DEI holising hiring policies. They're not working, and 454 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 2: they're not they're not getting in touch with the American people. 455 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 2: So it's exciting to see things like this finally start 456 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 2: to happen, especially with someone one of the most degenerate 457 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:22,720 Speaker 2: pride parades in this country. 458 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, speaking of people who might be doing too much 459 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 1: DEI hiring whoever hired the lady to paint the portrait 460 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: of President Trump and the Colorado State Capitol. I don't 461 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,360 Speaker 1: know if you've seen this picture, but let's let's pull 462 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:41,119 Speaker 1: this picture up right now.

I'm 464 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 1: not sure who thought that was like, oh, this is 465 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: an accurate rendering. But it has been taken down in 466 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:55,239 Speaker 1: the Colorado Capitol. It's been up for six years in 467 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: their Hall of Presidents.

I think it's absolutely terrible. 471 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 9: I thought Trump's response on on Twitter was hilarious, where 472 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:12,160 Speaker 9: He's like, this is disgraceful. 473 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 3: It is.

And then what 492 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,160 Speaker 13: they did was they actually bought into the supply chain. 493 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 13: So they actually started buying a lot of the seafood 494 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 13: distributors so that they could vertically integrate. They've got operations 495 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 13: overseas tie Union that they're importing a lot of their seafood. 496 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 13: So a lot of the lobster is the main or 497 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 13: New England lobster, but then a lot of the lobster 498 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,680 Speaker 13: is also like slipper lobster or rock lobster, warmwater lobster 499 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:58,680 Speaker 13: that's brought in from overseas. If you want to eat 500 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 13: real lobster, you got to eat man lobster. Oh, and 501 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 13: that's lobster with the claws on. Okay, it's easy to differentiate. 502 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 12: Now, there's a great place that I love. Anytime, every 503 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 12: single time I'm in New York City, I have to 504 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 12: go to Chelsea Market and there is a there's a 505 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:12,640 Speaker 12: lobster place in there. 506 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 3: Yeah. 507 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 13: Yeah, do you know what it's like the lobster pot. 508 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,240 Speaker 12: Or it might be like the Lobster Palace or the lot. 509 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 12: It might be the Lobster Market or something like that. 510 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:21,639 Speaker 12: And you get, you know, a little like paper boat, 511 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,239 Speaker 12: and they give you the lobster with the clawson and 512 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 12: I will sit there and I will eat one. And 513 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 12: I look forward to every trip. Every time i'm I'm there, 514 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 12: I have to go there. It's my place. 515 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 13: Yeah, And that's great because that's the main Lobster fishery 516 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,639 Speaker 13: is the most iconic fishery in the United States, and 517 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,159 Speaker 13: it is the prime example of how fishermen can manage 518 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,880 Speaker 13: their own resources as opposed to like a shadow government. Right, 519 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:43,639 Speaker 13: so when the government comes in and says, here's all 520 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 13: the standards, here's your catch quota, and like you know 521 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 13: you're fined if you do X, Y and Z. The 522 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 13: fishermen are thinking, we're the guys out on the ocean. 523 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 13: We're the ones taking care of the environment. We don't 524 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 13: need this random guy sitting in an office in Washington, 525 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,199 Speaker 13: d C. To tell us what to do based on 526 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 13: some number he put into a spreadsheet. We need it 527 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 13: is inherent in our job to make sure that the 528 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 13: stock that we're fishing is sustainable for our future generations, 529 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 13: so that our kids have jobs and they can take 530 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 13: the fishing boat out. So why would we overfish our 531 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 13: own stocks? And what's cool about the main lobster fishery 532 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 13: is like the fishermen have all these little mechanisms by which, like, 533 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 13: for example, they'll pull a lobster out that maybe has 534 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:23,439 Speaker 13: eggs or that's too small, they'll put a notch in 535 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 13: the tail so that other fishermen know if they pull 536 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 13: that same lobster and they see a notch in a tail, 537 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,879 Speaker 13: throw it back. That's not a government tool, a government 538 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,400 Speaker 13: control piece. Those are the fishermen themselves. So it's kind 539 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:37,400 Speaker 13: of this public versus private property approach where if we 540 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:40,439 Speaker 13: as citizens can manage our resources better than an a 541 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 13: Priori or kind of a shadowy government. 542 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 12: Would you eat crawfish? 543 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,360 Speaker 13: Yeah, I'd eat crawfish out of Louisiana. I mean US crawfish, 544 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:48,400 Speaker 13: not Chinese crawfish. 545 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:51,879 Speaker 12: Red Lobster is struggling, like they're closing restaurants. 546 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 13: Left and right. 547 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 12: So if you were to all of a sudden overnight 548 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:56,640 Speaker 12: inherit Red Lobster and take it over and say, okay, 549 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 12: I've got one shot to revive this chain. 550 00:26:59,080 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 11: What would you do? 551 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,680 Speaker 13: That is a great question when I think about a lot, actually, 552 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 13: mainly because the first thing I would do is I 553 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 13: would hire Jesse Kelly on as the CEO of Red Lobster. 554 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 12: Jesse Kelly from Texas, the commentator. 555 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:13,400 Speaker 13: Jesse Kelly from the first ye because all he does 556 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,640 Speaker 13: is talk about red Lobster. He says it's the most. 557 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:17,159 Speaker 1: Like I didn't know. 558 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:19,920 Speaker 13: Oh yeah. So like if you right now went online 559 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 13: and type red lobster, what's the first thought that came 560 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 13: to mind? I guarantee you your comments section would be 561 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,440 Speaker 13: Jesse Kelly hilarious. 562 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:30,880 Speaker 7: People do not appreciate red Lobster. It's thought of as 563 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 7: some kind of I don't know why. I don't know why. 564 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 7: It's not thought of where it should be as the 565 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,199 Speaker 7: pinnacle of American cuisine. 566 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 6: Look, it's hard trying not to get choked up. Red Lobster, 567 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 6: you know, the premier seafood restaurant in the United States 568 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 6: of America. They're filing for bankruptcy Chapter eleven bankruptcy. So 569 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 6: it hurts to see this happen to an American institution 570 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,879 Speaker 6: like this. I don't know how I personally will go on, 571 00:27:58,640 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 6: but I will try. 572 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 7: Red Lobster has been the peak of American seafood forever, 573 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 7: and I am legit upset about it. 574 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 6: Red Lobster, They're not only out of bankruptcy, they're out 575 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:13,960 Speaker 6: of bankruptcy with the brand new CEO. 576 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 14: If you're one of the people who very rudely email 577 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,880 Speaker 14: b hahaha Jess and your favorite restaurants. 578 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 15: Going down, well eat your words now, and you know what, 579 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,359 Speaker 15: I have something else to say. If you're one of 580 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 15: the people who mocked Red Lobster to me, you don't 581 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:31,719 Speaker 15: get to eat there ever again. 582 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 14: You are banned from Red Lobster. 583 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:34,119 Speaker 11: Me. 584 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 14: Well, that's where you'll find me this Friday, like. 585 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 13: All the time. And it's hilarious too, because he'll be like, 586 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 13: I took my wife out to the finest restaurant in 587 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 13: the United States, and it's like a picture of the 588 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 13: two of them at Red Lobster. 589 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 12: Yes, okay, so you're putting him as the spokesguy in 590 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 12: the commercials, and he's very funny in dynamics, so he 591 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 12: would pop off the screen. 592 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 13: Literally pop off, because he's like he's like seven foot eleven. 593 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:55,360 Speaker 6: Yeah. 594 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 13: Then the next thing that I would do is that 595 00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 13: I would connect with five or ten local fish or 596 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,080 Speaker 13: docks around the United States, and I would say, we 597 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 13: are exclusively serving these five or six US species for 598 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 13: the next six months. Right, I'd call it the Summer 599 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 13: of Sustainability, and I would tell the story about those 600 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 13: fish and that's that's the fish on the menu. Then 601 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 13: I would say we are only serving main lobster. I 602 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 13: would make sure that we had like main lobstermen in 603 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 13: pictures of the main lobster. 604 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 12: Like you're getting rid of the biscuits or what. 605 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 8: No. 606 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:22,719 Speaker 13: No, I would keep the biscuits. I would keep the biscuits, 607 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 13: but I would use beef talo. I wouldn't use the 608 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 13: I'm pretty sure that they use palm or palm oil 609 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 13: or soybean oil. So I'd redo that recipe. I would 610 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 13: switch all the fryers to tallow only this is a dream, 611 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 13: and I would do like fried clams New England clambellys. 612 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 13: I would do fried clam rolls, lobster rolls. I would 613 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 13: create a menu that was like five dollars to fifteen 614 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 13: dollars where you can go in and get a fried 615 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 13: clam roll and a basket of like tallow fries. Right, 616 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 13: so now we can bring in more people so they 617 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 13: can eat good food that's approachable, and make it all American, 618 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 13: like feature the fishermen because right now, I know for 619 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 13: a fact probably shouldn't say too much, but a significant 620 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 13: amount of red lobsters. See food is important. 621 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 12: Oh well, I'm not surprised about that. I grew up 622 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 12: in Indiana, okay, and like so it was like a 623 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 12: big deal Christmas Eve. I mean, you were fine dining 624 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 12: if you were going to like Longhorn or rud Lost. 625 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 12: That's how I grew up. And then anytime I go 626 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 12: back and visit my mom or my family's it's like 627 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 12: the same type of thing. And now I'm like trying 628 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 12: to introduce them, like let's go to Sweet Green. 629 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 6: Have you heard of? 630 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 11: It? 631 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:24,600 Speaker 12: Is like I'm trying to like introduce my family to 632 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 12: other things. It's it's been very interesting. 633 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,600 Speaker 13: So we know Indiana very well. We opened three restaurants there. Oh, 634 00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:33,240 Speaker 13: we're telling what We were in Indianapolis proper. And then 635 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 13: we were up in Carmel. Is it still there, just 636 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 13: north Yes, Slapfish So our original concept was called Slapfish, yes, okay, 637 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 13: and it was our best market in the United States. 638 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 12: Why do you think that is? Because we're just we're 639 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 12: starved there for real food, let me tell you. 640 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 1: Yeah. 641 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 13: But also there's the learning curve business sharp. We tried 642 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 13: opening in gosh, we were in DC, Maryland, Virginia West Coast, 643 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 13: like la we at one point we started as a 644 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 13: food truck. We grew to like thirty five forty locations 645 00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 13: over a six or s in your period, Laurena and 646 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 13: I and then and we were franchising. So we're in 647 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:05,959 Speaker 13: all these different states. Best market Indiana because when you 648 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 13: taught them about good food and I told these stories 649 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,720 Speaker 13: of sustainability, they wanted. 650 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 12: That because they're also this is you're talking about largely 651 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 12: blue collar families who understand small farms, you know, and 652 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:20,000 Speaker 12: like all that kind of stuff, and like what makes 653 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 12: America run, you know, And so I think they probably 654 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 12: are really bought into that story. 655 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,320 Speaker 13: They were, and that's the thing is they were willing 656 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 13: to try something new. 657 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 12: Let's make Indiana healthy again. This will be my new mission. 658 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 5: I love this. 659 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 12: Are you concerned about bird flu and raw milk? And 660 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 12: is raw milk being unfairly targeted about bird flu? 661 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 8: Oh? 662 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 13: It's of course it's being unfairly targeted. There's absolutely nothing 663 00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:44,320 Speaker 13: to be worried about when it comes to raw milk 664 00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 13: and bird flu transferring human to human or whatever however 665 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:50,400 Speaker 13: you want to kind of fearmonger. It also what we're 666 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 13: seeing in regards to bird flu in general. We got 667 00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:57,240 Speaker 13: to remember they killed millions and millions and millions of birds, 668 00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 13: healthy birds, in order to avoid any theoretical spread of 669 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 13: bird flu. 670 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 12: Yeah, which was weird to me, very weird. My theory 671 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:09,400 Speaker 12: here is like they're trying to spread this bird flu stuff. 672 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:10,840 Speaker 12: I don't even think it's necessarily to get us to 673 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 12: not drink raw milk. I think they're trying to be 674 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 12: able to come out with some new vaccine for the poultry. Yeah, 675 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 12: of course, I think that's what this is about. I 676 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 12: don't think it's about like they hate that we like 677 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 12: raw milk, which they do, but I don't think they 678 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 12: care that much about it. 679 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 13: And I agree with you the vaccine could be a 680 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 13: potential takeaway, right, But I don't even look at the 681 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,280 Speaker 13: government as being that well organized to be able to 682 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 13: have a specific goal. I think they have many goals 683 00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 13: and they throw spaghetti at the wall. So it's like, Okay, 684 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 13: we're going to fear monger. We're going to create this 685 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 13: horrible situation all in the name of safety. Sounds familiar, right, 686 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 13: So there's this bird flu that's spreading and some of 687 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 13: the people that are within the organization that are like 688 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 13: look out for this. They might be well intended, good 689 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 13: scientists and people who are doing the research, and there 690 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 13: might be a theoretical small, small, small percentage chance risk, 691 00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 13: but doesn't matter. Those people their job is to find 692 00:32:58,400 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 13: any risk. 693 00:32:58,960 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 1: Right. 694 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 13: So instead of looking at it as a whole and saying, okay, well, look, 695 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 13: no reason to panic. We've seen this before. All we 696 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 13: need to do is X, Y and Z. Let's do that. 697 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:11,320 Speaker 13: Then they're like, okay, well we kill all the birds, right, 698 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,920 Speaker 13: Egg prices go up, Okay, not a bad thing. Trump's 699 00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 13: coming in. We can blame that on him, and we 700 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 13: can blame raw milk. 701 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 12: They already are and it's for a couple of weeks. 702 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 13: And it's like, oh, and we can blame it on 703 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 13: raw milk. Theoretically, not a bad thing. We've been trying 704 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 13: to do that anyway. Oh and a new vaccine, not 705 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 13: a bad thing, because look where we're getting all of 706 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 13: our money. Oh and people eat less eggs, which is 707 00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:33,880 Speaker 13: something we've been pushing for anyway, So now they have 708 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 13: to move to plant based meat. Not a bad thing, 709 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 13: you see. So they're like, oh, that's a good thing. 710 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 13: That's a good thing. It's almost like they don't even 711 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 13: know exactly what they're looking for, but by virtue of 712 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 13: the fear, it's casting a white net. You're gonna have 713 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 13: some takeaways. 714 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 1: Welcome back to Turning Point tonight. We're together, we're charting 715 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:56,600 Speaker 1: the course of America's cultural comeback. This is my favorite 716 00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 1: part of the show. Or we get to respond and 717 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:00,920 Speaker 1: to some of your emails that you sent TPT at 718 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 1: TVUSA dot com and some of the comments that you 719 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 1: left on the videos and watch some of the stuff 720 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 1: that you've sent us, which is awful and hilarious. At 721 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:14,400 Speaker 1: the same time. These are a couple comments from the 722 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:18,719 Speaker 1: conversation yesterday we had with Brandon Tatum talking about Canada 723 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:22,080 Speaker 1: and whether or not the US would best them in 724 00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:25,399 Speaker 1: a war. A bunch of the people said, just send 725 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:27,360 Speaker 1: the country boys up there with a couple of fifths 726 00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:30,480 Speaker 1: of jack and it's all done. That's hard to argue with. 727 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:35,759 Speaker 1: The words Canada and war together make me chuckle. And 728 00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:38,439 Speaker 1: then this one from a longtime friend of the show, 729 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:42,319 Speaker 1: Ryan said, bro North, Michigan could take over Canada with 730 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: a minimal amount of support. And then somebody responded to 731 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 1: that comment said, Sutton Bay, Michigan here, locked and loaded. 732 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:53,920 Speaker 1: Let's go get us some maple syrup. So again, we 733 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 1: don't want to go to war with Canada. However, if 734 00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:00,759 Speaker 1: is Joid Reid stated it were to happen on fortunately, 735 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 1: it wouldn't even be close. That's yeah, that should go 736 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 1: without saying. So again, you can email the show anytime 737 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:13,520 Speaker 1: you want tpt at tpusa dot com. Whether your email 738 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 1: agrees with us or is wrong, or it's abhorrent and 739 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 1: terrible or sarcastic and snarky, chances are that gives it 740 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:24,239 Speaker 1: a better shot of getting on the show. Now, this 741 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:27,840 Speaker 1: was sent to us from Matt And you know, I 742 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 1: would like to apologize for any eye bleeding or blindness 743 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:38,280 Speaker 1: that suddenly happens when you watch this video, So maybe 744 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 1: turn don't turn off your TVs. This is hilarious and 745 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 1: you just have to watch it and ask with me, 746 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:48,480 Speaker 1: what in the Democrat Party is this? Check it out. 747 00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 16: What happens when you combine soccer and dancing. It's called 748 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:52,759 Speaker 16: disco foot. 749 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 5: Here's everything you need to know. Disco foot is both 750 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,279 Speaker 5: a soccer match and a dance performance. 751 00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,799 Speaker 16: It combines the basic rules of soccer, but has one 752 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 16: rather important difference. Dancing is required. 753 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 5: At all times. Continuous dance improvisation follows a soccer ball, 754 00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:08,959 Speaker 5: but also gives merit to what is referred to as 755 00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 5: the battle, which plays a vital role in winning the game. 756 00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:14,920 Speaker 16: The sport was created on April thirteenth, twenty sixteenth, and 757 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:19,360 Speaker 16: conceptualized for the Ballet de Lorraine, a French contemporary dance company, 758 00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:23,480 Speaker 16: by Peter Jacobson and Thomas Cayley, two dancers and choreographers 759 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:24,799 Speaker 16: who have collaborated with. 760 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:26,240 Speaker 5: One another since the nineties. 761 00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 16: A twenty eighteen TV special called disco Foot, written and 762 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:33,320 Speaker 16: directed by Jacobson and Kaylee highlights the performance match. 763 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 5: For all to enjoy. 764 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:37,400 Speaker 16: Each match features one referee and three artistic judges. The 765 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:41,320 Speaker 16: judges assess the teams on their artistic merit, scoring them twice, 766 00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:43,759 Speaker 16: first at halftime and then again at the end of 767 00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:46,760 Speaker 16: the match. These scores are combined with any goals scored 768 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 16: to determine the winning team. 769 00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 5: Remarkably, a team. 770 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:51,920 Speaker 16: Can win by excelling in dance even if they haven't 771 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:52,960 Speaker 16: scored any goals. 772 00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,880 Speaker 5: A standout feature to discofoot is its inclusivity. 773 00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 16: All genders are welcome on the field and self expression 774 00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,960 Speaker 16: is wholeheartedly encouraged. As the Valets de Lorraine puts it, 775 00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:04,919 Speaker 16: this match doesn't have time for the usual hyper masculinity 776 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 16: attributed to football. 777 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:10,400 Speaker 5: We're just too busy dancing. Would you play disco foot? 778 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:15,919 Speaker 1: No? No, I would not at all. What I don't 779 00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:20,759 Speaker 1: I don't even know what that is. First of all, 780 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:23,160 Speaker 1: you know, if I were to play, though, wouldn't you 781 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 1: just have one guy like just go around and score 782 00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:27,759 Speaker 1: the ball as many times as humanly possible while the 783 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 1: rest of the team dances. Supposedly, you can lose without 784 00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:33,279 Speaker 1: scoring any goals if your dance skills are up to par. 785 00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:36,960 Speaker 1: But just from the rules basis, you just have one 786 00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:39,239 Speaker 1: guy just go keep scoring and everybody else dances. I 787 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:42,080 Speaker 1: can't imagine you would lose that many dancing points. What 788 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:43,560 Speaker 1: am I talking about? I don't want to play this. 789 00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 1: I don't some of the stuff that you send us 790 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 1: the simul account tpt at tpusa dot com is gross 791 00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:53,319 Speaker 1: and disgusting. It also kind of hilarious to watch. I 792 00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:56,719 Speaker 1: also like the it is known for its inclusivity. Yeah, 793 00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:58,160 Speaker 1: except for minorities. 794 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:02,120 Speaker 10: I don't you notice no black people playing disco foot, 795 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:07,080 Speaker 10: And if they were, the dancing would be probably elevated 796 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 10: to a level that those weird European libs. 797 00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:15,960 Speaker 1: Wouldn't be able to best. So yeah, no, well we 798 00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:18,880 Speaker 1: will not be playing disco foot. Here's another thing they 799 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 1: got sent to us in the email again DBT ATPUSA 800 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 1: dot com. I thought, this is actually fascinating and I'm 801 00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:27,840 Speaker 1: going to be the judge and the arbiter of whether 802 00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:30,719 Speaker 1: or not these are accurate. This is a video compilation 803 00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:36,200 Speaker 1: of what AI depicts to be the average man, varying 804 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 1: by state. We're gonna do one word answers here, yes 805 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:43,200 Speaker 1: or no? Is this accurate? Let's go and play this 806 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 1: clip and I'll be talking over it to give you 807 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:49,719 Speaker 1: my assessment of whether or not this AI generation is 808 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:53,879 Speaker 1: accurate and accurately depicts the stereotypes. Check this out clip too. 809 00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:57,319 Speaker 13: The most stereotypical man in each state, according to. 810 00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:06,080 Speaker 1: AI stereotypical Ohio, Oklahoma, hmmm, yes, one hundred percent.

Next month is gonna be a great time. 836 00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:49,600 Speaker 1: Until then, we'll see you tomorrow, same time, same place, 837 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 1: God bless America. 838 00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:00,399 Speaker 17: Yesterday there was some breaking news happening while we were 839 00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:02,800 Speaker 17: on the show. We decided not to cover it because 840 00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:06,160 Speaker 17: we wanted to get all the facts. There was a 841 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:09,000 Speaker 17: group chat that was formed over the last weekend, and 842 00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 17: we're going to go through all of the facts related 843 00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:15,400 Speaker 17: to this story and give you our analysis. The analysis 844 00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:18,839 Speaker 17: that has the media in an uproar. So here are 845 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:21,840 Speaker 17: the facts. As you know, over the weekend, President Donald 846 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:26,640 Speaker 17: Trump authorized a series of targeted military strikes against the Hutis. 847 00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 1: The Uties were. 848 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:31,840 Speaker 17: Firing upon US vessels. Now, we must be very clear 849 00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:35,680 Speaker 17: that it is a quagmire on the southern tip of 850 00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:37,480 Speaker 17: the Arabian Peninsula. 851 00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:38,760 Speaker 13: This is in Yemen. 852 00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:41,800 Speaker 17: The Huties are in Yemen, which is on the western 853 00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:45,399 Speaker 17: part of the southern tip of the Arabian Peninsul, right 854 00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 17: near Oman and Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia for years has 855 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:55,120 Speaker 17: been very invested in this Huti civil war. It's been 856 00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 17: disrupting global trade. Many Americans do not even know that 857 00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:01,000 Speaker 17: there's a country called Yemen, let alone that we should 858 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:05,200 Speaker 17: be involved in the Yemenese civil war. President Donald Trump 859 00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 17: made a decision to authorize American military strikes. Now, regardless 860 00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:10,960 Speaker 17: of whether or not you agree or disagree with that, 861 00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:16,760 Speaker 17: that's actually not the core element at play here. Once 862 00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:20,480 Speaker 17: this decision was well underway, there was a group chat 863 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:24,640 Speaker 17: that was started on a messaging application called Signal. Now 864 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:27,560 Speaker 17: I use Signal quite a lot, and I'm sure many 865 00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:31,040 Speaker 17: of you do as well. It's a secure messaging application 866 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:35,240 Speaker 17: where you're able to have messages that automatically delete after 867 00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:41,080 Speaker 17: an hour, a day, a week, or a month. In 868 00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:44,880 Speaker 17: this group chat was Vice President Jade Vance, Pete Haigseth, 869 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:50,080 Speaker 17: John Ratcliffe, Susie Wiles, Steven Miller, and many others. Now, 870 00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:53,400 Speaker 17: let's just begin by saying there were no non government 871 00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,560 Speaker 17: officials on these group chats. That's a good first start. 872 00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:59,879 Speaker 17: There was not people that were not supposed to ness 873 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 17: necessarily be informed of what is going on, well until 874 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 17: something got leaked. So I'm going to read this entire 875 00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:11,600 Speaker 17: group conversation and this group chat conversation that I'm going 876 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:14,439 Speaker 17: to tell you exactly how on earth we have been 877 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:20,680 Speaker 17: led to have a window into these private discussions. Jade 878 00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:24,680 Speaker 17: Vance writes at first, at Pete Hegseth, if you think 879 00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:27,840 Speaker 17: we should do it, let's go. I just hate bailing 880 00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:32,479 Speaker 17: Europe out again. Let's make sure our messaging is tight here, 881 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:35,960 Speaker 17: and if there are things we can do upfront to 882 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:39,960 Speaker 17: minimize risk to Saudy oil facilities, we should do it. 883 00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:47,279 Speaker 17: Pete Hegseth replies VP, I fully share your loathing of 884 00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:52,960 Speaker 17: European free loading. It's all caps pathetic, but Mike is correct. 885 00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:55,880 Speaker 17: We are the only ones on the planet on our 886 00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:58,960 Speaker 17: side of the ledger who can do this. Nobody else 887 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:02,919 Speaker 17: can come even close. The question is timing. I feel 888 00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,160 Speaker 17: like now is a good time as any given POTUS 889 00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:08,960 Speaker 17: directive to reopen shipping lanes, and then we should go. 890 00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:13,360 Speaker 17: The potus still retains twenty four hours of decision space. 891 00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:17,520 Speaker 17: Now sm then replies, I believe this is Stephen Miller. 892 00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:23,359 Speaker 17: I could be incorrect. I think it's Stephen Miller as 893 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:26,400 Speaker 17: I heard it. The President was clear green light. But 894 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:29,799 Speaker 17: we soon make clear to Egypt and Europe what we 895 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:33,919 Speaker 17: expect in return. We also need to figure out how 896 00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 17: to enforce such a requirement. 897 00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:36,320 Speaker 1: Eg. 898 00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 17: If Europe doesn't renunerate, then what if the US successfully 899 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:45,080 Speaker 17: restores freedom of navigation a great cost, there needs to 900 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:49,480 Speaker 17: be some further economic gain extracted in return. Now it's 901 00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:54,239 Speaker 17: presumably Stephen Miller, but we don't know for sure. Then 902 00:44:54,480 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 17: in the next iteration we saw a couple emojis here 903 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:04,160 Speaker 17: from Michael Walts saying the team in Mari A Lago 904 00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:06,400 Speaker 17: did a great job as well, great work all powerful 905 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:08,920 Speaker 17: start and the name of the group chat was the 906 00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:14,759 Speaker 17: Huti PC small group. Now, how on earth did we 907 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:21,160 Speaker 17: learn about this? On signal, you are able to add 908 00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:25,319 Speaker 17: people to your group chat on signal, you're able to 909 00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:28,840 Speaker 17: allow other people to come in. You can invite them. 910 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:35,280 Speaker 17: National Security Advisor Michael Waltz invited the editor in chief 911 00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:42,880 Speaker 17: of the Trump hating Atlantic magazine, mister Goldberg, into. 912 00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:43,440 Speaker 13: The group chat. 913 00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:48,480 Speaker 17: To go have a window into all of these private 914 00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:53,319 Speaker 17: national security conversations. Now, before I go deeper into that 915 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:56,239 Speaker 17: element of this, I do want to make sure that 916 00:45:56,320 --> 00:46:00,279 Speaker 17: we are clear about what we've just read. What you've 917 00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:06,240 Speaker 17: read is that both privately and publicly, there is symmetry 918 00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:16,280 Speaker 17: with the national security attitudes that our foreign policy leaders 919 00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:22,640 Speaker 17: have that there is not a private loathing for the 920 00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:25,640 Speaker 17: America First policy perspective that they ran on what jd 921 00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:32,200 Speaker 17: Vance believes publicly, he also believes in privately what Pete 922 00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:37,680 Speaker 17: Hegseth has been saying publicly. He also believes behind closed doors, 923 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:42,440 Speaker 17: they aren't plotting how to make Elon Musk money. We 924 00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:46,120 Speaker 17: saw the Trump administration was telling the truth about what 925 00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:50,240 Speaker 17: they care about. This is exactly how I'd expect them 926 00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:53,600 Speaker 17: to speak, both publicly and privately. They aren't plotting about 927 00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:56,200 Speaker 17: how to get five points of approval without caring about 928 00:46:56,239 --> 00:47:03,120 Speaker 17: the outcome. It is raw, it's authentic. Now, how Jeffrey 929 00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:08,600 Speaker 17: Goldberg got added is likely because Mike Waltz wanted to 930 00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:12,520 Speaker 17: add the US Trade Representative Jamison Greer and had the 931 00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:17,400 Speaker 17: same initials. Now, allow me to editorialize for a second. 932 00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:20,200 Speaker 17: I know Mike Waltz. We disagree on a lot of 933 00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:24,760 Speaker 17: foreign policy stuff. There's a serious question as to why 934 00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:31,720 Speaker 17: Mike Waltz has Jeffrey Goldberg as a saved signal contact. 935 00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:36,000 Speaker 17: The very serious question. He's the editor in chief of 936 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:39,680 Speaker 17: a Trump hating magazine, you are a national security advisor. 937 00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:44,440 Speaker 17: You've obviously been dialoguing or talking to him previously. Is 938 00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:47,279 Speaker 17: Michael Waltz leaking to Jeffrey Goldberg? I certainly hope not. 939 00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:50,600 Speaker 17: We know Jeffrey Goldberg has pushed some of the greatest 940 00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:54,319 Speaker 17: anti Trump bs in years past. This is not a 941 00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:57,200 Speaker 17: friendly or a remotely friendly reporter. 942 00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:00,440 Speaker 11: It
