WEBVTT - Doesn't Everyone Need A Mexico?!

0:00:09.960 --> 0:00:15.320
<v Speaker 1>Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

0:00:15.360 --> 0:00:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Gatty Armstrong and

0:00:20.120 --> 0:00:33.280
<v Speaker 1>Jettie and keep arms wrong get the Frum studio C

0:00:33.800 --> 0:00:36.199
<v Speaker 1>signor they are in a dimly lit room.

0:00:36.280 --> 0:00:38.440
<v Speaker 2>You put them the bowels of the Armstrong and Getty

0:00:38.479 --> 0:00:42.120
<v Speaker 2>Communications Compound on a war footing. And today we're under

0:00:42.120 --> 0:00:45.680
<v Speaker 2>the tutlage of our general manager, Donald J. Trump and

0:00:45.840 --> 0:00:51.760
<v Speaker 2>Vladimir Putin on the phone. I wonder if they're going

0:00:51.800 --> 0:00:54.000
<v Speaker 2>to catch up first before they get down the business.

0:00:54.280 --> 0:00:56.560
<v Speaker 1>It's nice to hear your voice so flat.

0:00:56.640 --> 0:00:59.440
<v Speaker 3>You how you hear many wives foot older?

0:00:59.560 --> 0:01:11.120
<v Speaker 1>Your ex wife's other fun? Wow? How's your bracket looking? Uh? Yeah?

0:01:11.120 --> 0:01:13.240
<v Speaker 4>So I mentioned war footing because of the bombing in

0:01:13.360 --> 0:01:15.680
<v Speaker 4>Israel overnight. So you got that going on too, which

0:01:15.800 --> 0:01:19.240
<v Speaker 4>is not directly Donald Trump's delio, but I'm sure he's

0:01:19.280 --> 0:01:21.240
<v Speaker 4>keeping an eye on it. And then he's on the

0:01:21.240 --> 0:01:24.200
<v Speaker 4>phone with Putin as we speak, at least in theory.

0:01:24.920 --> 0:01:26.759
<v Speaker 4>Last time they talked for ninety minutes, so it could

0:01:26.800 --> 0:01:29.640
<v Speaker 4>be a while before the world gets any news out

0:01:29.640 --> 0:01:34.640
<v Speaker 4>of how that phone call went. The I was reading

0:01:34.680 --> 0:01:39.280
<v Speaker 4>Ian Bremer's stuff last night. He's a guy that takes

0:01:39.280 --> 0:01:40.240
<v Speaker 4>a look at the world.

0:01:41.800 --> 0:01:44.520
<v Speaker 1>That's his job. Brief description. But yeah's accurate enough.

0:01:44.560 --> 0:01:48.720
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, And he said, this is easily the most consequential

0:01:48.760 --> 0:01:51.000
<v Speaker 4>phone call thus far of the Trump administration.

0:01:51.200 --> 0:01:53.520
<v Speaker 1>And you know, a lot on the line. So we'll

0:01:53.520 --> 0:01:54.280
<v Speaker 1>see how that goes.

0:01:55.000 --> 0:01:58.160
<v Speaker 4>And so man, being president be something, I mean, just

0:01:58.200 --> 0:02:00.920
<v Speaker 4>for anybody. You're gonna be on the phone for Putin

0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:05.680
<v Speaker 4>for however long, making some really serious like historic decisions,

0:02:05.840 --> 0:02:08.440
<v Speaker 4>and then probably within in a couple of hours, be

0:02:08.480 --> 0:02:10.600
<v Speaker 4>on the phone with bb Net and Yahoo who's bombing

0:02:10.639 --> 0:02:15.520
<v Speaker 4>the by Jesus out Igaza and uh and you know,

0:02:15.639 --> 0:02:17.760
<v Speaker 4>dealing with that and then the ramifications there.

0:02:18.200 --> 0:02:20.640
<v Speaker 3>If it were only the trade stuff that has been

0:02:20.720 --> 0:02:25.200
<v Speaker 3>much discussed these days, that would be pressure enough, stress enough,

0:02:25.200 --> 0:02:28.120
<v Speaker 3>complexity enough, I think for any one human being.

0:02:28.680 --> 0:02:29.880
<v Speaker 1>I do notice that.

0:02:30.000 --> 0:02:33.280
<v Speaker 4>And I since most people listen to this show are

0:02:33.320 --> 0:02:35.639
<v Speaker 4>kind of into the news, you're probably aware that Israel

0:02:35.680 --> 0:02:41.160
<v Speaker 4>started bombing the Palestinians were humas again yesterday. It is

0:02:41.200 --> 0:02:43.519
<v Speaker 4>the Palestinians according to the mainstream media. I noticed the

0:02:43.560 --> 0:02:46.280
<v Speaker 4>mainstream media, man ay, there is there is there is

0:02:46.320 --> 0:02:50.679
<v Speaker 4>no hedging on this whatsoever. Immediately jumped into the how

0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:54.000
<v Speaker 4>many people have died according to the Health Ministry, many

0:02:54.000 --> 0:02:54.800
<v Speaker 4>of them children.

0:02:55.360 --> 0:02:59.000
<v Speaker 3>I mean this, Israel launches deadly attacks, was the headline

0:02:59.040 --> 0:03:01.919
<v Speaker 3>in the New York Times. Most attacks in war are

0:03:02.000 --> 0:03:03.560
<v Speaker 3>that's kind of the idea.

0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:07.959
<v Speaker 4>Right, And then quoting the enemy for how many people

0:03:08.040 --> 0:03:09.359
<v Speaker 4>die and taking.

0:03:09.080 --> 0:03:11.399
<v Speaker 1>Their word for how many of them are children? It's

0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:12.160
<v Speaker 1>just insane.

0:03:12.600 --> 0:03:16.960
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it went from It was criticized to do that.

0:03:17.160 --> 0:03:21.799
<v Speaker 4>Even Joe Biden himself criticized it. You can't take their

0:03:21.840 --> 0:03:24.959
<v Speaker 4>word for it, he once said, but got so much pushback,

0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:29.040
<v Speaker 4>and now all mainstream media goes with their numbers. According

0:03:29.040 --> 0:03:33.600
<v Speaker 4>to Hitler, this many German children have been killed in

0:03:33.680 --> 0:03:35.800
<v Speaker 4>Allied bombing and then you report.

0:03:35.520 --> 0:03:38.280
<v Speaker 1>That as you imagine. No, it's nuts, right.

0:03:38.920 --> 0:03:44.320
<v Speaker 3>I kept coming across the phrase the peace talks, specifically

0:03:44.360 --> 0:03:46.760
<v Speaker 3>the talks over the next phase of the peace process

0:03:47.040 --> 0:03:49.880
<v Speaker 3>had stalled. And there are days I feel like I'm

0:03:49.960 --> 0:03:52.160
<v Speaker 3>in the midst of the Emperor's new clothes and everybody

0:03:52.160 --> 0:03:53.720
<v Speaker 3>around me is walking around saying.

0:03:53.720 --> 0:03:57.280
<v Speaker 5>Oh, the Emperor has a two state solution. Oh we

0:03:57.360 --> 0:04:00.520
<v Speaker 5>love your two state solution, mister emperor. And anybody with

0:04:00.560 --> 0:04:03.480
<v Speaker 5>any sanity is saying, let's see, let's check with the mass.

0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:05.680
<v Speaker 5>Are you still vowing to wipe Israel off the face

0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:07.000
<v Speaker 5>of the map the first chance you get?

0:04:07.280 --> 0:04:07.800
<v Speaker 1>Yes? Check.

0:04:07.960 --> 0:04:10.280
<v Speaker 3>Are you still vowing to wipe out the Jews and

0:04:10.440 --> 0:04:12.640
<v Speaker 3>when you're done with them the Christians the moment you

0:04:12.680 --> 0:04:15.280
<v Speaker 3>have the opportunity, Yes, So explain to me again the

0:04:15.280 --> 0:04:17.160
<v Speaker 3>two states of solution and how that's going to work?

0:04:17.839 --> 0:04:19.200
<v Speaker 1>Are you fantasy? Last?

0:04:19.200 --> 0:04:23.960
<v Speaker 4>Are you still doing mocking touchdown dance celebrations when you

0:04:24.040 --> 0:04:27.800
<v Speaker 4>hand over dead bodies you once claimed we're alive, sometimes

0:04:27.839 --> 0:04:29.080
<v Speaker 4>not even the actual body.

0:04:29.920 --> 0:04:30.760
<v Speaker 1>Right right?

0:04:32.120 --> 0:04:38.040
<v Speaker 4>The talks have stalled, Jack, So it all ties together?

0:04:38.600 --> 0:04:40.080
<v Speaker 1>Or should.

0:04:41.720 --> 0:04:44.279
<v Speaker 4>Trump bombing the crap out of the houthies and now

0:04:44.960 --> 0:04:47.279
<v Speaker 4>Israel Obama the crap out of Hamas it's all about

0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:50.520
<v Speaker 4>Iran and so Trump said this in a Truth Social

0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:55.400
<v Speaker 4>post late last night. Every shot fired by the houthies

0:04:55.440 --> 0:04:57.400
<v Speaker 4>will be looked upon from this point forward as being

0:04:57.400 --> 0:04:59.880
<v Speaker 4>a shot fired from the weapons and leadership of Iran

0:05:00.520 --> 0:05:03.919
<v Speaker 4>in all capitals, and Iran in capital letters will be

0:05:03.960 --> 0:05:07.640
<v Speaker 4>held responsible and suffer the consequences, and those consequences will

0:05:07.680 --> 0:05:11.840
<v Speaker 4>be dire, he wrote on Truth Social. So it's all

0:05:11.880 --> 0:05:14.560
<v Speaker 4>tied together Huthis and Hamas. It's all about, hey, Ran,

0:05:14.640 --> 0:05:19.520
<v Speaker 4>get your act together. Finally we'll see, finally, a little leadership.

0:05:20.760 --> 0:05:24.360
<v Speaker 4>This violence, I believe will end much of the violence.

0:05:24.560 --> 0:05:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Not immediately.

0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:28.279
<v Speaker 3>It depends on which specific you're talking about, but the

0:05:28.400 --> 0:05:29.800
<v Speaker 3>whole don't.

0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:34.480
<v Speaker 1>And if you do, oh well we won't do much.

0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:38.000
<v Speaker 3>We saw what that got us. Let's try something different.

0:05:38.040 --> 0:05:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Please. Well.

0:05:38.640 --> 0:05:40.919
<v Speaker 4>Politically, what's interesting is I don't know how much of

0:05:41.000 --> 0:05:44.840
<v Speaker 4>Trump's bases the Tucker Carlson crowd don't. I really don't know.

0:05:44.920 --> 0:05:49.040
<v Speaker 4>I don't know if it's one percent or twenty percent.

0:05:49.240 --> 0:05:50.880
<v Speaker 4>I wish I had a better handle on that. But

0:05:50.920 --> 0:05:54.479
<v Speaker 4>Tucker Carlson tweeted out yesterday, it's worth pointing out that

0:05:54.520 --> 0:05:57.080
<v Speaker 4>a strike on the Iranian nuclear sites will almost certainly

0:05:57.080 --> 0:06:00.640
<v Speaker 4>result in thousands of American deaths at Bay throughout the

0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:03.320
<v Speaker 4>Middle East and cost the United States tens of billions

0:06:03.320 --> 0:06:06.359
<v Speaker 4>of dollars the cost of future acts of terrorism on

0:06:06.400 --> 0:06:09.600
<v Speaker 4>American soil, maybe even higher. Those aren't guesses, those are

0:06:09.640 --> 0:06:13.359
<v Speaker 4>the Pentagon's own estimates, says Tucker Carlson. A bombing campaign

0:06:13.400 --> 0:06:15.400
<v Speaker 4>against Iran will set off a war, and it will

0:06:15.440 --> 0:06:18.200
<v Speaker 4>be America's war. Don't let the propagandists lie to you.

0:06:18.600 --> 0:06:23.120
<v Speaker 4>And that was repeated by n Coulter and Candae Owens

0:06:23.160 --> 0:06:24.560
<v Speaker 4>and a variety of people out there.

0:06:24.600 --> 0:06:28.760
<v Speaker 3>Sure, I think at least some of that is probably true.

0:06:29.040 --> 0:06:32.479
<v Speaker 3>All right, Tucker, Now do if we continue to withdraw

0:06:32.680 --> 0:06:36.919
<v Speaker 3>from the strategic parts of the world a la Joe Biden?

0:06:37.120 --> 0:06:38.760
<v Speaker 1>What's it going to be like that? How many people

0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:39.400
<v Speaker 1>will tie? Then?

0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:43.159
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, as the evildoers of the world are empowered, go ahead,

0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:43.840
<v Speaker 3>do that one now.

0:06:43.960 --> 0:06:44.159
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:46.280
<v Speaker 4>When I read that from Tucker Carlson, I was actually

0:06:46.320 --> 0:06:49.800
<v Speaker 4>thinking we at some point, and this is grim, I realize,

0:06:50.000 --> 0:06:53.800
<v Speaker 4>and easy to say when it's not you or your kid.

0:06:53.880 --> 0:06:57.320
<v Speaker 4>My brother's no longer active military, but I'd be saying

0:06:57.360 --> 0:06:59.080
<v Speaker 4>the same thing if he was still active in going

0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:02.240
<v Speaker 4>into the Middle East. At some point, the United States

0:07:02.360 --> 0:07:05.120
<v Speaker 4>is going to have a return to reality and history

0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:08.920
<v Speaker 4>with wars where you lose thousands of people and it's

0:07:09.000 --> 0:07:11.880
<v Speaker 4>not like you immediately pull out of the country because

0:07:11.880 --> 0:07:15.120
<v Speaker 4>you lost people, because that's the way wars were.

0:07:15.200 --> 0:07:16.880
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's going to happen at some point.

0:07:17.880 --> 0:07:21.240
<v Speaker 4>I don't want it to happen, but it's inevitable, especially

0:07:21.280 --> 0:07:23.440
<v Speaker 4>with Russia and China continuing to push, at some point

0:07:23.480 --> 0:07:26.200
<v Speaker 4>we're actually going to have to fight and take losses

0:07:26.720 --> 0:07:33.040
<v Speaker 4>and have to overcome them politically, not just you know,

0:07:33.280 --> 0:07:34.480
<v Speaker 4>just not just strategically.

0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:38.600
<v Speaker 3>The fantasy that you can stop pushing outward, and I

0:07:38.600 --> 0:07:41.560
<v Speaker 3>don't mean like geographically or spreading yourself centner and it

0:07:41.640 --> 0:07:44.600
<v Speaker 3>cinner and a cinner, I mean being willing to project power.

0:07:44.680 --> 0:07:48.400
<v Speaker 3>The fantasy that if you lose that willingness there will

0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:53.720
<v Speaker 3>be peace is so incredibly foolish. And there's some very

0:07:53.880 --> 0:07:58.640
<v Speaker 3>very intelligent people pushing it, and I'm a little mystified

0:07:58.680 --> 0:08:01.760
<v Speaker 3>as to their thinking what they think will happen next.

0:08:01.960 --> 0:08:05.000
<v Speaker 1>This could end up being a big political rupture, definitely.

0:08:05.640 --> 0:08:10.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, Well, political ruptures seem to be the norm

0:08:10.760 --> 0:08:14.080
<v Speaker 3>right now, and our delights loping clip will illustrate in

0:08:14.080 --> 0:08:18.480
<v Speaker 3>a moment. And I have a theory as to why,

0:08:19.200 --> 0:08:20.880
<v Speaker 3>and it's a good one. It's a solid one.

0:08:21.000 --> 0:08:24.000
<v Speaker 4>Okay, So let's start the show officially, Why the heck not?

0:08:24.040 --> 0:08:26.800
<v Speaker 4>I'm Jack Armstrong, He's Joe getting on this. It is Tuesday, Oh,

0:08:26.920 --> 0:08:31.440
<v Speaker 4>the day after Saint Patrick's Day. Oh, feeling a little

0:08:31.440 --> 0:08:34.480
<v Speaker 4>green today? You're twenty twenty five. We are armstrong in

0:08:34.520 --> 0:08:36.920
<v Speaker 4>getting we approved of this program. Second day of green,

0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:38.559
<v Speaker 4>no extra charge, as it turns out.

0:08:38.640 --> 0:08:41.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, all right, let's begin officially according to FCC rules

0:08:41.760 --> 0:08:42.400
<v Speaker 3>and regulations.

0:08:42.400 --> 0:08:43.560
<v Speaker 1>Here we go leaping into action.

0:08:43.640 --> 0:08:46.720
<v Speaker 6>At mark poll numbers for Democrats, only twenty seven percent

0:08:46.760 --> 0:08:48.880
<v Speaker 6>of voters have a positive view of the party, the

0:08:49.000 --> 0:08:53.720
<v Speaker 6>lowest favorability rating in the history of NBC's polling.

0:08:53.960 --> 0:08:55.440
<v Speaker 1>You're a twenty seven person.

0:08:56.720 --> 0:08:59.640
<v Speaker 7>You've got to get Trump to lose eight points of

0:08:59.640 --> 0:09:02.920
<v Speaker 7>poppy hilarity just for you to get to the point

0:09:03.040 --> 0:09:08.640
<v Speaker 7>where you're thirteen points below him. Your approval is only

0:09:08.720 --> 0:09:11.360
<v Speaker 7>seven points above where it turns red and goes into

0:09:11.400 --> 0:09:15.800
<v Speaker 7>low power mode.

0:09:17.720 --> 0:09:20.000
<v Speaker 1>That's John start talking about the Democrats.

0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:24.560
<v Speaker 4>Democrats approval rating which is historically low right now, of course,

0:09:24.559 --> 0:09:26.960
<v Speaker 4>as so as the Republicans. It's just not as low

0:09:27.000 --> 0:09:30.120
<v Speaker 4>as the Democrats. People are not into their big parties

0:09:30.200 --> 0:09:32.600
<v Speaker 4>right now. No, indeed, and.

0:09:32.520 --> 0:09:35.520
<v Speaker 3>Honestly, the worst thing you can possibly do for your

0:09:35.559 --> 0:09:39.520
<v Speaker 3>approval rating generally is get power and be in charge

0:09:40.080 --> 0:09:43.400
<v Speaker 3>the opposition party has it, cush Man, That is the

0:09:43.400 --> 0:09:46.320
<v Speaker 3>way to be. You just howl about whoever's doing what

0:09:46.679 --> 0:09:49.400
<v Speaker 3>in office, and you promise your followers that when you

0:09:49.480 --> 0:09:53.520
<v Speaker 3>get office, by God, you will bring the paradise we've

0:09:53.559 --> 0:09:55.240
<v Speaker 3>all expected and deserved.

0:09:55.280 --> 0:09:56.439
<v Speaker 1>You know what. It's kind of like, kind of like

0:09:56.480 --> 0:09:57.319
<v Speaker 1>being a non parent.

0:09:57.520 --> 0:10:00.120
<v Speaker 4>You can really hang on to your beliefs of how

0:10:00.320 --> 0:10:05.120
<v Speaker 4>you would raise it right, or what they're probably doing

0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:07.000
<v Speaker 4>wrong to cause that kid to act that way.

0:10:07.440 --> 0:10:11.800
<v Speaker 3>Right exactly, You're the smug military officer back at headquarters

0:10:11.800 --> 0:10:14.040
<v Speaker 3>explaining how the battle ought to be going.

0:10:15.080 --> 0:10:19.480
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, anyway, Uh so, we got Katie's headlines on

0:10:19.480 --> 0:10:20.960
<v Speaker 4>the way, We've got some mail bag, we'll get some

0:10:20.960 --> 0:10:23.120
<v Speaker 4>more news of the day, and man, as soon as

0:10:23.840 --> 0:10:26.319
<v Speaker 4>any information comes out of that Trump Putin phone call,

0:10:26.360 --> 0:10:31.120
<v Speaker 4>I'm interested in that. But he has not allowed readoubts

0:10:31.120 --> 0:10:34.080
<v Speaker 4>of a lot of these calls with Putin in sort

0:10:34.120 --> 0:10:36.320
<v Speaker 4>of the typical way like if you know, if you're

0:10:36.360 --> 0:10:38.200
<v Speaker 4>on the phone with Macron or something like that.

0:10:38.760 --> 0:10:41.520
<v Speaker 3>And I've found Trump's strategy so far to be kind

0:10:41.559 --> 0:10:45.680
<v Speaker 3>of mystifying. And that speaks to the fact that he's

0:10:45.880 --> 0:10:48.880
<v Speaker 3>keeping his cards close to his vest, and I suspect

0:10:48.960 --> 0:10:51.480
<v Speaker 3>he will continue to do so after the call, So

0:10:51.520 --> 0:10:53.240
<v Speaker 3>I don't expect much enlightenment.

0:10:53.360 --> 0:10:56.880
<v Speaker 4>Wow, Okay, Well, that's disappointing anyway, disappointment on the way.

0:10:56.920 --> 0:10:59.719
<v Speaker 4>Here's our text line four one five two nine five KFDC.

0:11:03.440 --> 0:11:06.360
<v Speaker 1>So we haven't been covering this story at all. I'm

0:11:06.400 --> 0:11:08.000
<v Speaker 1>not interested in bringing you up to speed.

0:11:08.000 --> 0:11:09.440
<v Speaker 4>If you if you don't know what I'm talking about,

0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:10.560
<v Speaker 4>just wait thirty seconds.

0:11:10.559 --> 0:11:11.120
<v Speaker 1>It'll be over.

0:11:11.200 --> 0:11:15.000
<v Speaker 4>But the parents of that missing college student want her

0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:15.720
<v Speaker 4>declared dead?

0:11:16.840 --> 0:11:17.640
<v Speaker 1>What is that all about?

0:11:17.679 --> 0:11:19.839
<v Speaker 4>And a video came out yesterday of her puking by

0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:20.440
<v Speaker 4>the hotel.

0:11:21.360 --> 0:11:24.280
<v Speaker 3>Probably has to do with Dominican law and whether they

0:11:24.320 --> 0:11:29.400
<v Speaker 3>can hold the the quote unquote witness that they've been questioning.

0:11:29.160 --> 0:11:31.360
<v Speaker 4>Is your best guess that she was hammered, drunk, went

0:11:31.440 --> 0:11:33.760
<v Speaker 4>in the water, got swept out to see.

0:11:35.120 --> 0:11:39.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, maybe or maybe the two chance is involved. I

0:11:39.360 --> 0:11:40.360
<v Speaker 1>don't know. It's hard.

0:11:40.400 --> 0:11:42.200
<v Speaker 3>You get a couple of drunk people in the wee

0:11:42.240 --> 0:11:45.640
<v Speaker 3>hours on the beach, in the water, nobody around is

0:11:45.679 --> 0:11:49.320
<v Speaker 3>like four in the morning, right, yeah, yeah, yeah, it

0:11:49.360 --> 0:11:53.040
<v Speaker 3>could be very very difficult to determine whatever happened. But yeah,

0:11:53.080 --> 0:11:54.840
<v Speaker 3>so there is so much I want to get to today.

0:11:54.920 --> 0:11:59.720
<v Speaker 3>Got a great Gender Benning Madness update, an explainer or

0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:02.520
<v Speaker 3>two about kind of complicated stories going on in the

0:12:02.520 --> 0:12:05.600
<v Speaker 3>news that are mystifying, and I've taken a little time

0:12:05.640 --> 0:12:08.520
<v Speaker 3>to boil them down to the essence, including the shipping

0:12:08.600 --> 0:12:11.960
<v Speaker 3>the gang members off to El Salvador and did the

0:12:12.000 --> 0:12:15.560
<v Speaker 3>Trump administration defy and order stuff. It's actually pretty interesting

0:12:16.080 --> 0:12:19.319
<v Speaker 3>when you get past the half wit news anchors and

0:12:20.360 --> 0:12:23.559
<v Speaker 3>various administration people yelling at each other. So hope you

0:12:23.559 --> 0:12:25.840
<v Speaker 3>can stay tuned. Let's figure out who's reporting what. It's

0:12:25.880 --> 0:12:28.480
<v Speaker 3>the lead story with Katie Green Katie.

0:12:28.080 --> 0:12:30.880
<v Speaker 8>Thank you, guys, starting with the Washington Post. More than

0:12:30.920 --> 0:12:35.040
<v Speaker 8>four hundred killed as Israel strikes Gaza, breaking ceasefire with Hamas.

0:12:37.400 --> 0:12:40.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I don't like that wording. What's that? From the

0:12:40.000 --> 0:12:41.360
<v Speaker 1>well to the Washington Posts.

0:12:41.400 --> 0:12:43.880
<v Speaker 4>Don't like that at all? Breaking the ceasefire. Gaza broke

0:12:43.920 --> 0:12:47.800
<v Speaker 4>the ceasefire problem, not Gaza. Hamas broke the ceasefire by

0:12:47.840 --> 0:12:50.079
<v Speaker 4>not agreeing to their end of it, which was returning

0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:51.839
<v Speaker 4>hostages on time right.

0:12:51.960 --> 0:12:54.800
<v Speaker 3>They had no intention of furthering the negotiations.

0:12:54.920 --> 0:12:57.360
<v Speaker 1>Israel knew it. And then now it's time to get back.

0:12:57.200 --> 0:12:57.640
<v Speaker 3>To the war.

0:12:57.679 --> 0:12:59.880
<v Speaker 4>And as we already stated, that death number you're going

0:13:00.280 --> 0:13:01.760
<v Speaker 4>is the enemy's death number.

0:13:03.800 --> 0:13:06.920
<v Speaker 1>From the Free Beacon Columbia declined.

0:13:06.559 --> 0:13:11.600
<v Speaker 8>To investigate swastika's sprawled throughout the Hamilton Hall because they

0:13:11.600 --> 0:13:14.600
<v Speaker 8>were written in shock and could be erased.

0:13:15.679 --> 0:13:20.760
<v Speaker 3>The hypocrisy and double standard of these walk institutions, including universities,

0:13:20.760 --> 0:13:23.160
<v Speaker 3>are hilarious and more people ought to be aware of it.

0:13:23.720 --> 0:13:26.760
<v Speaker 3>You go through lists of who got canceled for what,

0:13:27.040 --> 0:13:29.240
<v Speaker 3>and then who got excused for Well, they were young

0:13:29.320 --> 0:13:33.520
<v Speaker 3>and impressionable and made a mistake. It is exactly divided

0:13:33.600 --> 0:13:34.760
<v Speaker 3>by your politics.

0:13:34.840 --> 0:13:36.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:13:36.280 --> 0:13:41.040
<v Speaker 8>From Politico, Trump Nixon's Secret Service protection for Hunter and

0:13:41.280 --> 0:13:46.160
<v Speaker 8>Ashley Biden details totally about thirty agents to protect the

0:13:46.200 --> 0:13:47.560
<v Speaker 8>president's adult children.

0:13:48.960 --> 0:13:51.040
<v Speaker 3>Well, the Secret Service guys would be in too much

0:13:51.120 --> 0:13:54.800
<v Speaker 3>danger from old drug dealer and art dealer people who

0:13:54.840 --> 0:13:55.800
<v Speaker 3>are angry at Hunter.

0:13:56.480 --> 0:13:58.760
<v Speaker 4>So Hunter Biden was he going to get Secret Service

0:13:58.760 --> 0:14:00.000
<v Speaker 4>protection for the rest of his life?

0:14:00.000 --> 0:14:01.000
<v Speaker 1>I paid for us.

0:14:00.920 --> 0:14:02.560
<v Speaker 8>Bios for the next six months.

0:14:02.640 --> 0:14:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh, okay, it's it's yeah.

0:14:04.280 --> 0:14:08.360
<v Speaker 3>It's only required through age sixteen, I heard, which is interesting.

0:14:08.840 --> 0:14:10.920
<v Speaker 3>It was literally it's granted if needed.

0:14:11.040 --> 0:14:13.400
<v Speaker 1>Okay. From NBC.

0:14:14.080 --> 0:14:17.920
<v Speaker 8>After nine months in space, NASA astronauts who flew on

0:14:17.960 --> 0:14:20.400
<v Speaker 8>Boeing's capsule are on their way home.

0:14:21.280 --> 0:14:24.960
<v Speaker 3>Rescued by whose company m They don't want to say.

0:14:27.840 --> 0:14:31.680
<v Speaker 1>I believe that's accurate from the Wall Street Journal.

0:14:32.120 --> 0:14:36.720
<v Speaker 8>We are turning too many people into medical patients. They're saying,

0:14:36.720 --> 0:14:40.120
<v Speaker 8>this is the swift rise for diagnosis for everything.

0:14:41.200 --> 0:14:41.560
<v Speaker 3>Wow.

0:14:41.800 --> 0:14:44.240
<v Speaker 1>I pass through the journal every day. I missed that one.

0:14:44.360 --> 0:14:47.440
<v Speaker 3>I have some really interesting stuff on xanax nation, but I'll.

0:14:47.280 --> 0:14:49.280
<v Speaker 1>Have to seek that out. Yeah, I would like to.

0:14:49.320 --> 0:14:50.720
<v Speaker 1>I would like to read that. Also.

0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:52.360
<v Speaker 4>It reminds me of my doctor's saying to me a

0:14:52.400 --> 0:14:54.680
<v Speaker 4>while back, what are we trying to do here? We

0:14:54.720 --> 0:14:58.600
<v Speaker 4>got into the conversation about keeping people alive longer, but

0:14:59.080 --> 0:15:02.000
<v Speaker 4>you're not really dig in life, were able to do much,

0:15:03.000 --> 0:15:04.000
<v Speaker 4>and the doctor saying.

0:15:03.840 --> 0:15:05.000
<v Speaker 1>What is our goal here?

0:15:05.840 --> 0:15:09.520
<v Speaker 3>I am not like full on wound up about big

0:15:09.560 --> 0:15:12.640
<v Speaker 3>pharma like some people are. On the other hand, where

0:15:12.680 --> 0:15:18.600
<v Speaker 3>there is enormous profit, there are perverse incentives to turn

0:15:18.640 --> 0:15:20.600
<v Speaker 3>you into a medical case or treat you or druggy

0:15:20.720 --> 0:15:22.200
<v Speaker 3>or whatever. There's a hell of a lot of money

0:15:22.200 --> 0:15:25.360
<v Speaker 3>to be made from CBS.

0:15:24.840 --> 0:15:31.240
<v Speaker 8>Sports next heat game delayed after comedian Tracy Morgan appears

0:15:31.600 --> 0:15:33.840
<v Speaker 8>to vomit on Madison Square Garden Court.

0:15:34.040 --> 0:15:35.120
<v Speaker 1>I didn't feel good.

0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:36.240
<v Speaker 8>It did not appear.

0:15:36.360 --> 0:15:39.960
<v Speaker 1>He absolutely did vomit. Yeah, he peered.

0:15:40.360 --> 0:15:44.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, maybe he saw the video of the guy in

0:15:44.040 --> 0:15:46.640

0:16:06.160 --> 0:16:07.240

0:16:07.360 --> 0:16:10.080
<v Speaker 4>It's I'm code switching to somebody more exotic and interesting

0:16:10.120 --> 0:16:10.640
<v Speaker 4>for the media.

<v Speaker 9>are going to be out there every day, every day.

0:17:33.160 --> 0:17:35.159
<v Speaker 9>The men and women of ICE are going to be

0:17:35.200 --> 0:17:38.840
<v Speaker 9>in the neighborhoods of this nation, arresting criminal, illegal alien,

0:17:38.920 --> 0:17:41.840
<v Speaker 9>public state they thrusts and National security thrust. Laurence, you're

0:17:41.920 --> 0:17:43.880
<v Speaker 9>not going to stop us. I'm probably be a part

0:17:43.920 --> 0:17:46.560
<v Speaker 9>of this administration. We're not stopping. I don't care what

0:17:46.640 --> 0:17:48.520
<v Speaker 9>the judges think. I don't care the left tanks.

0:17:48.720 --> 0:17:51.880
<v Speaker 4>We're coming as old wholemaner likes a booting out ofllegals

0:17:51.880 --> 0:17:54.040
<v Speaker 4>in We'll be talking more about that later. And man

0:17:54.119 --> 0:17:57.560
<v Speaker 4>it it polls well too, So that's tough if you're

0:17:57.680 --> 0:17:59.919
<v Speaker 4>the party that's trying to be against that, because it.

0:18:00.200 --> 0:18:01.000
<v Speaker 1>Bowls really well.

0:18:02.640 --> 0:18:05.480
<v Speaker 4>Also have the latest on the snow White and the

0:18:05.640 --> 0:18:10.679
<v Speaker 4>seven CGI Dwarves story, which here's controversy around. Usually controversy

0:18:10.760 --> 0:18:12.720
<v Speaker 4>like this is completely bogus, and it's just to let

0:18:12.760 --> 0:18:14.720
<v Speaker 4>you know there's a new movie out. This is real

0:18:14.800 --> 0:18:17.959
<v Speaker 4>because of wolfism. So we'll get into that maybe an

0:18:17.960 --> 0:18:18.400
<v Speaker 4>hour or two.

0:18:19.040 --> 0:18:23.920
<v Speaker 3>Although my only comment, because we will discuss it next hour,

0:18:24.560 --> 0:18:28.400
<v Speaker 3>is that if that were the only problem with this

0:18:28.680 --> 0:18:33.200
<v Speaker 3>steaming pile of non entertainment, but my god, the organist.

0:18:32.760 --> 0:18:34.199
<v Speaker 1>Has gone wild. Sorry about that.

0:18:34.640 --> 0:18:37.960
<v Speaker 3>I believe it's a drug problem anyway. You know, musicians

0:18:38.000 --> 0:18:41.199
<v Speaker 3>are you know, please where was it?

0:18:41.280 --> 0:18:41.399
<v Speaker 1>Oh?

0:18:41.480 --> 0:18:43.960
<v Speaker 3>Yes, if that were the only problem this steaming pile

0:18:44.000 --> 0:18:48.000
<v Speaker 3>of non entertainment had, well that would be something, but no,

0:18:48.160 --> 0:18:51.399
<v Speaker 3>they wish that there was a real dwarf controversy because

0:18:51.400 --> 0:18:54.120
<v Speaker 3>then people might actually want to see it. But more

0:18:54.160 --> 0:18:57.119
<v Speaker 3>to come on that. A lot of people talking about tariffs,

0:18:57.160 --> 0:18:59.960
<v Speaker 3>a lot of headlines these days. Fever pitch has always

0:19:00.040 --> 0:19:03.800
<v Speaker 3>because Donald Jay is involved, and I and Jack have

0:19:03.880 --> 0:19:07.639
<v Speaker 3>also at times said we wish Trump was being a

0:19:07.680 --> 0:19:11.600
<v Speaker 3>little more explicit on what he's trying to accomplish, what

0:19:11.680 --> 0:19:13.600
<v Speaker 3>the goal is and why it's good for America. And

0:19:13.640 --> 0:19:16.960
<v Speaker 3>there's been some information on we got to bring manufacturing

0:19:17.000 --> 0:19:19.600
<v Speaker 3>back and that sort of thing, and I think everybody's

0:19:19.640 --> 0:19:21.199
<v Speaker 3>in favor of that. As long as you know the

0:19:21.280 --> 0:19:24.760
<v Speaker 3>means of getting there aren't too insane. But I've been

0:19:24.800 --> 0:19:29.640
<v Speaker 3>surprised he hasn't done a Reaganesque speech. And I don't

0:19:29.640 --> 0:19:32.280
<v Speaker 3>mean just Reaganesque generally, but Reagan at the beginning of

0:19:32.280 --> 0:19:37.040
<v Speaker 3>his first term, when inflation was rampant, he went before

0:19:37.080 --> 0:19:39.840
<v Speaker 3>the nation and he said, look, here's my plan. It's

0:19:39.840 --> 0:19:41.920
<v Speaker 3>going to be rough in the short term, but we're

0:19:41.960 --> 0:19:44.480
<v Speaker 3>going to squash inflation and then things are going to

0:19:44.560 --> 0:19:45.240
<v Speaker 3>be rosy.

0:19:45.920 --> 0:19:47.440
<v Speaker 1>And a lot of America believed them.

0:19:47.640 --> 0:19:50.240
<v Speaker 3>And he did it and it worked out almost precisely

0:19:50.280 --> 0:19:52.600
<v Speaker 3>the way he said. And I've just kind of been

0:19:52.640 --> 0:19:56.359
<v Speaker 3>waiting for Trump to do that, well, you know, in

0:19:56.400 --> 0:19:58.800
<v Speaker 3>a more here's a speech kind of way. I mean,

0:19:58.840 --> 0:20:02.240
<v Speaker 3>he talks to the American people every day, multiply interesting way.

0:20:02.320 --> 0:20:04.560
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, so both I was reading in The New York

0:20:04.560 --> 0:20:07.480
<v Speaker 4>Times last night, both Tom Friedman and David Sanger, two

0:20:07.480 --> 0:20:10.280
<v Speaker 4>of their more respected journalists, and for different reasons on

0:20:10.359 --> 0:20:13.960
<v Speaker 4>different topics, but both of them were talking about how

0:20:13.960 --> 0:20:16.280
<v Speaker 4>Trump has been the most disruptive and disruptive is not

0:20:16.280 --> 0:20:19.400
<v Speaker 4>always a negative word, but have been the most disruptive

0:20:20.200 --> 0:20:24.040
<v Speaker 4>president in eighty years. I mean since World War Two

0:20:24.240 --> 0:20:26.080
<v Speaker 4>in the first fifty days. Would you agree with that

0:20:26.200 --> 0:20:32.040
<v Speaker 4>or not? Oh yeah, wow, most president in eighty years.

0:20:32.240 --> 0:20:35.119
<v Speaker 1>If he's not number one, he's tied for it. That's true.

0:20:35.200 --> 0:20:37.080
<v Speaker 4>I mean, yeah, even if I'm going to quibble that,

0:20:37.119 --> 0:20:39.679
<v Speaker 4>you have to be in be in that top couple.

0:20:40.240 --> 0:20:41.600
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely, top tier. Sure.

0:20:44.280 --> 0:20:47.240
<v Speaker 3>So the reception being, Hey, the World War Two, let's

0:20:47.280 --> 0:20:49.439
<v Speaker 3>cruise along, this is going great, the post World War

0:20:49.480 --> 0:20:50.280
<v Speaker 3>Two cruise along.

0:20:50.320 --> 0:20:51.120
<v Speaker 1>Everything's going great.

0:20:51.160 --> 0:20:53.639
<v Speaker 3>Period looks like it's coming to an end, and we

0:20:53.640 --> 0:20:55.600
<v Speaker 3>ought to be a little proactive. Well, right, So that

0:20:55.720 --> 0:20:58.399
<v Speaker 3>was the Ross doth Fat column that I read from

0:20:58.440 --> 0:21:01.640
<v Speaker 3>the New York Times. Also, he's a conservative leaning gentlemen.

0:21:03.160 --> 0:21:06.639
<v Speaker 3>His whole column was all about these things were already true.

0:21:06.760 --> 0:21:10.080
<v Speaker 3>Trump's just recognizing they're truer saying it out loud. The

0:21:10.119 --> 0:21:12.640
<v Speaker 3>economy is different, the world order is different. These things

0:21:12.680 --> 0:21:15.960
<v Speaker 3>were already real, and he's just like.

0:21:16.000 --> 0:21:18.840
<v Speaker 1>Leaning into it. So this is an interesting take.

0:21:19.520 --> 0:21:22.439
<v Speaker 3>Right, Yeah, indeed, and there's a lot of truth to it.

0:21:22.480 --> 0:21:24.680
<v Speaker 3>I think, you know, some of the means they're going

0:21:24.720 --> 0:21:26.920
<v Speaker 3>about to do this stuff. I think he's a little

0:21:26.920 --> 0:21:31.159
<v Speaker 3>ham handed, and maybe the communications not great, but you know,

0:21:31.200 --> 0:21:35.679
<v Speaker 3>they'll work that out anyway. The folks involved in the

0:21:35.880 --> 0:21:39.840
<v Speaker 3>tariff policy discussion, I think are aware of people like

0:21:39.960 --> 0:21:42.840
<v Speaker 3>me saying, what are you guys doing? And so they're

0:21:42.840 --> 0:21:45.600
<v Speaker 3>starting to talk to reporters and or whether on the

0:21:45.600 --> 0:21:47.480
<v Speaker 3>record or off the record, and leaking and that sort

0:21:47.520 --> 0:21:50.720
<v Speaker 3>of thing. And the strategy is becoming more clear. And

0:21:50.800 --> 0:21:53.200
<v Speaker 3>the Journal has a piece They've got four guys working

0:21:53.240 --> 0:21:57.120
<v Speaker 3>on this, and they're talking about some of the negotiations

0:21:57.119 --> 0:21:58.840
<v Speaker 3>that have been going on behind the scenes, which really

0:21:58.840 --> 0:22:03.000
<v Speaker 3>help illuminate what they're trying to do. Officials have recently

0:22:03.080 --> 0:22:08.280
<v Speaker 3>weighed whether to simplify the complex tax task rather of

0:22:08.359 --> 0:22:12.440
<v Speaker 3>devising new teriff rates for our hundreds of trading partners,

0:22:13.200 --> 0:22:17.120
<v Speaker 3>by sorting the countries into one of three tariff tiers.

0:22:17.960 --> 0:22:20.399
<v Speaker 3>You know, fair countries that are good friends, kind of

0:22:20.440 --> 0:22:22.959
<v Speaker 3>medium countries, and countries that are sticking us with tariffs,

0:22:23.000 --> 0:22:27.040
<v Speaker 3>or I gotta stick family tariffs and try to sort

0:22:27.080 --> 0:22:33.040
<v Speaker 3>them out. They later ruled out that proposal because they're

0:22:33.080 --> 0:22:36.720
<v Speaker 3>still trying to sort out how to implement the rates

0:22:36.720 --> 0:22:39.720
<v Speaker 3>and how to figure out who's who and so, and

0:22:40.040 --> 0:22:42.800
<v Speaker 3>Trump has told them that the folks working on this,

0:22:42.920 --> 0:22:46.480
<v Speaker 3>that you've got like till it's April second to come

0:22:46.560 --> 0:22:48.880
<v Speaker 3>up with your plan, and so they're scrambling like crazy.

0:22:49.119 --> 0:22:50.960
<v Speaker 1>But the goal of all of this.

0:22:51.440 --> 0:22:55.000
<v Speaker 3>Is to get to a much more reciprocal world where

0:22:55.119 --> 0:22:59.560
<v Speaker 3>all right, just to pick out, you know, Germany, if

0:22:59.600 --> 0:23:04.320
<v Speaker 3>you're going to impose a tariff on our fine automobiles

0:23:05.000 --> 0:23:08.840
<v Speaker 3>at thirty percent, well your BMW's and nowadis and VW's,

0:23:08.960 --> 0:23:09.800
<v Speaker 3>we're gonna hit you with.

0:23:09.760 --> 0:23:10.440
<v Speaker 1>The same thing.

0:23:11.160 --> 0:23:15.439
<v Speaker 3>And by the way, which which I think is completely defensible,

0:23:15.560 --> 0:23:19.840
<v Speaker 3>because speaking of the post WW two era, when America

0:23:19.960 --> 0:23:23.600
<v Speaker 3>stood astride the manufacturing old world like a colossus.

0:23:23.720 --> 0:23:25.080
<v Speaker 1>Europe was in ruins.

0:23:25.480 --> 0:23:28.600
<v Speaker 3>Asia was either in ruins or living in huts, right,

0:23:28.640 --> 0:23:31.640
<v Speaker 3>I mean, we'd say, all right, yeah, you can put

0:23:31.640 --> 0:23:33.439
<v Speaker 3>a twenty percent tariff on our stuff so you can

0:23:33.480 --> 0:23:35.760
<v Speaker 3>get your industry up and run in and we didn't care.

0:23:36.520 --> 0:23:38.600
<v Speaker 3>But that that period is over now. So anyway, they're

0:23:38.640 --> 0:23:42.399
<v Speaker 3>trying to get to reciprocal tariffs. You tax us thirty percent,

0:23:42.480 --> 0:23:44.760
<v Speaker 3>we tax you at thirty percent. Oh you don't want that,

0:23:44.800 --> 0:23:47.320
<v Speaker 3>Well how about we go with something low and reasonable.

0:23:47.920 --> 0:23:50.600
<v Speaker 3>So they're trying to figure out how to get there.

0:23:51.119 --> 0:23:54.280
<v Speaker 3>It's going to be a Rocky Ride. And complicating all

0:23:54.359 --> 0:23:57.640
<v Speaker 3>this is these countries are not stupid, so you have

0:23:57.920 --> 0:23:59.880
<v Speaker 3>even like a Germany for instance, as long as we're

0:23:59.880 --> 0:24:02.000
<v Speaker 3>talking about them, and China is doing the same thing.

0:24:02.040 --> 0:24:05.280
<v Speaker 3>But let's put China over there because there are mortal enemy.

0:24:05.600 --> 0:24:08.600
<v Speaker 3>But Germany's saying, oh, oh yeah, you get to thirty

0:24:08.640 --> 0:24:12.360
<v Speaker 3>percent on German cars now, but only ten percent in

0:24:12.400 --> 0:24:16.639
<v Speaker 3>Mexico because of the free trade agreement Trump himself negotiated.

0:24:16.840 --> 0:24:19.480
<v Speaker 3>So Galigi, we're setting up a plant now in Mexico

0:24:19.840 --> 0:24:25.200
<v Speaker 3>with the same effective situation of our cars are way

0:24:25.280 --> 0:24:27.200
<v Speaker 3>cheaper to sell in the US than your cars are

0:24:27.200 --> 0:24:29.680
<v Speaker 3>to sell in Germany. And where are we going to

0:24:29.760 --> 0:24:32.359
<v Speaker 3>set up a plant that Germany doesn't have a Mexico,

0:24:33.320 --> 0:24:37.520
<v Speaker 3>so we're at a disadvantage. So again that's joy over

0:24:37.680 --> 0:24:41.440
<v Speaker 3>the day. Germany doesn't have a Mexico. They need a Mexico.

0:24:41.720 --> 0:24:45.440
<v Speaker 3>Doesn't everybody need a Mexico. Evidently, jd Vance has taken

0:24:45.600 --> 0:24:50.080
<v Speaker 3>a big role now in the trade agenda development and

0:24:50.160 --> 0:24:53.040
<v Speaker 3>has been hosting some of the hours long meetings at

0:24:53.040 --> 0:24:55.920
<v Speaker 3>the Naval Observatory, which is for some reason where the

0:24:56.000 --> 0:24:57.880
<v Speaker 3>Vice President lives in Washington.

0:24:58.960 --> 0:25:05.160
<v Speaker 1>But it makes more sense to me, now interesting, but it's.

0:25:04.960 --> 0:25:10.280
<v Speaker 3>So complicated because again, okay, so we're super great buddies

0:25:10.280 --> 0:25:13.439
<v Speaker 3>with the l Salvador or England or whatever, and you

0:25:13.480 --> 0:25:16.199
<v Speaker 3>figure that out as China, you think, ok, we'll just

0:25:16.200 --> 0:25:19.600
<v Speaker 3>manufacture there, We'll send our crap through there because they

0:25:19.600 --> 0:25:21.480
<v Speaker 3>don't have a high terriff on us, and then the

0:25:21.600 --> 0:25:24.200
<v Speaker 3>US ends up not getting their tariff. So it's it's

0:25:24.240 --> 0:25:27.280
<v Speaker 3>tough stuff anyway. So I think that's what they're they're

0:25:27.320 --> 0:25:27.679
<v Speaker 3>working on.

0:25:27.840 --> 0:25:29.920
<v Speaker 4>Following up on the other thing we were talking about

0:25:29.920 --> 0:25:32.600
<v Speaker 4>earlier in the hour, and so Trump bombs the heck

0:25:32.640 --> 0:25:35.720
<v Speaker 4>out of the Hoot, these Israel bombs the heck out

0:25:35.720 --> 0:25:40.119
<v Speaker 4>of Hamas. Those are both Iranian backed groups. It's basically,

0:25:40.960 --> 0:25:44.760
<v Speaker 4>you know, part of the proxy war with Iran. And

0:25:45.200 --> 0:25:47.880
<v Speaker 4>Trump has threatened in the last couple of weeks that

0:25:48.160 --> 0:25:51.000
<v Speaker 4>Iran needs to, you know, make a deal. He sent

0:25:51.080 --> 0:25:52.560
<v Speaker 4>a letter to the Ietola you need to make a

0:25:52.600 --> 0:25:57.359
<v Speaker 4>deal on this whole Iranian nuclear program you've got, or

0:25:57.400 --> 0:26:00.600
<v Speaker 4>we're gonna take it out and it's going to be

0:26:00.680 --> 0:26:04.760
<v Speaker 4>really bad for you. And Iran has not responded. And

0:26:04.800 --> 0:26:07.800
<v Speaker 4>then I so I mentioned that Tucker Carlson, who's got

0:26:07.880 --> 0:26:14.040
<v Speaker 4>millions and millions of followers, and not just like literal

0:26:14.119 --> 0:26:17.479
<v Speaker 4>actual follower his Twitter account and his website, but people

0:26:17.480 --> 0:26:23.399
<v Speaker 4>in that ideology. We got this text Tucker was on

0:26:24.119 --> 0:26:26.520
<v Speaker 4>with Bongino's replacement yesterday.

0:26:26.560 --> 0:26:27.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't know who that is.

0:26:28.359 --> 0:26:31.879
<v Speaker 4>And Tucker said, Pakistan has nuclear weapons. North Korea has

0:26:31.960 --> 0:26:34.879
<v Speaker 4>nuclear weapons. I don't want Iran to get nukes, but

0:26:35.080 --> 0:26:39.720
<v Speaker 4>those other countries have nukes. So I guess suggesting letting

0:26:39.840 --> 0:26:43.160
<v Speaker 4>Iran get a nuclear weapon would be better than military

0:26:43.200 --> 0:26:45.560
<v Speaker 4>action with them that could turn into an actual war,

0:26:46.000 --> 0:26:47.280
<v Speaker 4>which I do not agree with.

0:26:48.640 --> 0:26:54.960
<v Speaker 3>But no, particularly because well, Pakistan's a wobbler. I was

0:26:54.960 --> 0:26:58.080
<v Speaker 3>going to say, North Korea isn't run by religious fanatics

0:26:58.080 --> 0:27:01.359
<v Speaker 3>who are bent on bending the war to Allah's will.

0:27:02.080 --> 0:27:03.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I don't think.

0:27:02.960 --> 0:27:06.240
<v Speaker 3>Your average Presbyterian in the US, or I'm not religious,

0:27:06.280 --> 0:27:13.320
<v Speaker 3>I'm spiritual. They can't conceive of what a religious fundamentalist,

0:27:13.760 --> 0:27:17.160
<v Speaker 3>how he sees the world raised from you when you're

0:27:17.200 --> 0:27:20.720
<v Speaker 3>a baby. To believe that Islam should rule the entire

0:27:20.760 --> 0:27:24.679
<v Speaker 3>world and anywhere it doesn't is a humiliation to God Almighty.

0:27:25.000 --> 0:27:27.120
<v Speaker 3>And it is your sacred duty to spend every day

0:27:27.160 --> 0:27:30.399
<v Speaker 3>of your life to to take care of that and

0:27:30.480 --> 0:27:34.840
<v Speaker 3>spread Islam and make Islam the government of all of

0:27:34.880 --> 0:27:37.239
<v Speaker 3>the earth. They don't they don't get that.

0:27:38.680 --> 0:27:41.520
<v Speaker 4>This is just like solidified in my mind in the

0:27:41.600 --> 0:27:44.000
<v Speaker 4>last dozen hours or so, and then I will get

0:27:44.040 --> 0:27:45.520
<v Speaker 4>off this. But and I know I'm going to be

0:27:45.520 --> 0:27:48.520
<v Speaker 4>accused of being a neo khan or chickenhawk or all

0:27:48.560 --> 0:27:52.240
<v Speaker 4>those sorts of terms for a neo hawk, an chicken khan,

0:27:52.440 --> 0:27:56.440
<v Speaker 4>a chicken con which is the worst. God help you

0:27:56.480 --> 0:27:57.639
<v Speaker 4>if one moves in next door to you.

0:27:58.760 --> 0:27:58.879
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

0:28:01.160 --> 0:28:04.679
<v Speaker 4>Similar to the topic of recognizing reality in a certain

0:28:04.800 --> 0:28:07.560
<v Speaker 4>in a bunch of different areas, the economics, world order

0:28:07.560 --> 0:28:09.760
<v Speaker 4>are different stuff. We might have to realize that the

0:28:10.359 --> 0:28:12.320
<v Speaker 4>we're gonna have to fight some of the bad people.

0:28:12.320 --> 0:28:13.919
<v Speaker 4>We're gonna have to fight some of the bad people,

0:28:14.080 --> 0:28:18.800
<v Speaker 4>actually engage with them, lose people, and fight them and win.

0:28:19.080 --> 0:28:21.000
<v Speaker 4>That's going to have to happen like has always happened

0:28:21.000 --> 0:28:23.000
<v Speaker 4>throughout history and.

0:28:26.080 --> 0:28:30.400
<v Speaker 3>Were carefully and judiciously and never for the wrong reasons.

0:28:30.600 --> 0:28:35.240
<v Speaker 4>We haven't really done that in a long time, right, right,

0:28:35.520 --> 0:28:37.640
<v Speaker 4>But that I think that's coming, and it would be

0:28:37.680 --> 0:28:40.840
<v Speaker 4>really obviously somewhat ironic. Is as often the cases with

0:28:40.960 --> 0:28:44.479
<v Speaker 4>a case when people get elected president. Very sort of

0:28:44.480 --> 0:28:46.360
<v Speaker 4>thing that they ran on ends up being in their

0:28:46.440 --> 0:28:48.320
<v Speaker 4>lap and they have to make some decisions that he

0:28:48.360 --> 0:28:50.520
<v Speaker 4>wanted to make. Trump, who ran a lot on, you know,

0:28:50.560 --> 0:28:52.920
<v Speaker 4>getting this out of wars, and all these di's say

0:28:52.960 --> 0:28:55.160
<v Speaker 4>he might have to be more engaged as a war

0:28:55.200 --> 0:28:58.120
<v Speaker 4>president than any we've had in a long time. Quite possibly,

0:28:58.600 --> 0:29:00.600
<v Speaker 4>that has happened so many times in history.

0:29:00.760 --> 0:29:02.680
<v Speaker 1>That's the George W. Bush story.

0:29:02.760 --> 0:29:04.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, though he took it way too far and lost

0:29:04.760 --> 0:29:07.480
<v Speaker 3>his mind in my opinion. But anyway, my grand unifying

0:29:07.560 --> 0:29:10.240
<v Speaker 3>theory on why both parties are so divided and how

0:29:10.280 --> 0:29:11.120
<v Speaker 3>everything's crumbling.

0:29:11.800 --> 0:29:13.520
<v Speaker 1>Next hour, cool, hopey, say.

0:29:13.600 --> 0:29:17.720
<v Speaker 4>We'll get into the dwarf controversy CGI dwarves taking jobs

0:29:17.720 --> 0:29:18.680
<v Speaker 4>away from little people.

0:29:18.760 --> 0:29:20.240
<v Speaker 1>Cruel, absolutely cruel.

0:29:20.600 --> 0:29:24.480
<v Speaker 3>I'm working on the headline little Men, Big controversy. Oh wow,

0:29:24.880 --> 0:29:26.920
<v Speaker 3>it's a little heavy hand of the little men.

0:29:27.160 --> 0:29:27.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm working on it.

0:29:28.200 --> 0:29:32.400
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it's Some of the quotes are something Joe's got

0:29:32.400 --> 0:29:38.960
<v Speaker 4>mailbag on the waisty here, Trump and Putin are on

0:29:39.080 --> 0:29:39.960
<v Speaker 4>the phone.

0:29:40.520 --> 0:29:42.040
<v Speaker 1>Are they carving up Ukraine?

0:29:43.960 --> 0:29:47.000
<v Speaker 4>Making a deal without Ukraine being involved in the conversation

0:29:47.080 --> 0:29:47.360
<v Speaker 4>at home?

0:29:47.440 --> 0:29:49.640
<v Speaker 1>Might be anyway as soon as details leak out. We'll

0:29:49.640 --> 0:29:50.160
<v Speaker 1>have them for you.

0:29:51.960 --> 0:29:54.360
<v Speaker 3>Got a lot to come next hour, indeed, including a

0:29:54.400 --> 0:29:58.280
<v Speaker 3>freedom loving Quote of the day bassetball addition at least partly,

0:29:59.520 --> 0:30:05.240
<v Speaker 3>I'm sorry, a gender bending Madness update basketball edition partly.

0:30:05.800 --> 0:30:08.440
<v Speaker 1>Now it's time for the freedom loving Quote of the bit.

0:30:08.560 --> 0:30:10.600
<v Speaker 3>Somebody really needs to write this on a whiteboard in

0:30:10.600 --> 0:30:12.720
<v Speaker 3>front of me. I need Q cards like I'm on

0:30:12.760 --> 0:30:17.200
<v Speaker 3>Saturday Night Live. This is from Dietrich Bonhoeffer, sent along

0:30:17.360 --> 0:30:21.480
<v Speaker 3>by anonymous person interrupting our series of Teddy Roosevelt quotes.

0:30:21.240 --> 0:30:22.800
<v Speaker 1>Just for the day.

0:30:23.440 --> 0:30:25.240
<v Speaker 3>I'll give you the short version, Jack, Can you tell

0:30:25.240 --> 0:30:28.440
<v Speaker 3>me if you want the longer version? Stupidity is a

0:30:28.440 --> 0:30:30.920
<v Speaker 3>more dangerous enemy of the good than malice.

0:30:31.280 --> 0:30:32.840
<v Speaker 1>One may protest against evil.

0:30:32.920 --> 0:30:35.440
<v Speaker 3>It can be exposed, and if need be prevented by

0:30:35.520 --> 0:30:38.680
<v Speaker 3>use of force. Against stupidity, we are defenseless.

0:30:39.080 --> 0:30:42.120
<v Speaker 1>That's pretty good. That is pretty good. I'll read you

0:30:42.160 --> 0:30:42.640
<v Speaker 1>a little more.

0:30:42.680 --> 0:30:46.760
<v Speaker 4>I've been reading, been meeting to read more about Dietrich Bonhoeffer.

0:30:46.840 --> 0:30:48.000
<v Speaker 4>I just never get around to it.

0:30:49.120 --> 0:30:49.239
<v Speaker 5>Uh.

0:30:49.360 --> 0:30:52.440
<v Speaker 3>Evil always carries within itself the germ of its own subversion,

0:30:52.480 --> 0:30:54.480
<v Speaker 3>in that it leaves behind in human beings, at least

0:30:54.520 --> 0:30:58.240
<v Speaker 3>a sense of unease against stupidity. We are defenseless. Neither

0:30:58.560 --> 0:31:02.600
<v Speaker 3>protests nor the use of accomplish anything. Here reason falls

0:31:02.640 --> 0:31:06.280
<v Speaker 3>on deaf ears. Facts that contradict one's prejudgment simply need

0:31:06.360 --> 0:31:10.120
<v Speaker 3>not be believed. In such moments, the stupid person even becomes critical,

0:31:10.320 --> 0:31:13.840
<v Speaker 3>and when facts are irrefutable, they are just pushed aside as, inconsequential,

0:31:14.040 --> 0:31:17.080
<v Speaker 3>as incidental and all this. The stupid person, in contrast

0:31:17.160 --> 0:31:21.120
<v Speaker 3>to the malicious one, is utterly satisfied and being easily irritated,

0:31:21.240 --> 0:31:24.240
<v Speaker 3>becomes dangerous by going on the attack. For that reason,

0:31:24.320 --> 0:31:26.760
<v Speaker 3>greater caution is called for when dealing with a stupid

0:31:26.760 --> 0:31:28.360
<v Speaker 3>person than with a malicious one.

0:31:29.640 --> 0:31:31.000
<v Speaker 1>That'd be my life experience.

0:31:31.560 --> 0:31:33.800
<v Speaker 3>That is one of the greatest breakdowns in dealing with

0:31:33.840 --> 0:31:35.560
<v Speaker 3>a stupid person I've ever come across.

0:31:36.240 --> 0:31:38.720
<v Speaker 1>Mail Bag drop us a note.

0:31:38.720 --> 0:31:40.760
<v Speaker 3>Mail Bag at armstrong in getty dot com is the

0:31:40.760 --> 0:31:43.080
<v Speaker 3>email address mail bag at armstrong in getty dot com.

0:31:44.200 --> 0:31:46.520
<v Speaker 3>Data on the topic of Americans used to be much

0:31:46.520 --> 0:31:48.760
<v Speaker 3>more mobile, and there was a big giant moving day

0:31:48.800 --> 0:31:49.320
<v Speaker 3>once a year.

0:31:49.320 --> 0:31:50.240
<v Speaker 1>If you didn't hear.

0:31:50.120 --> 0:31:54.360
<v Speaker 3>It, it was our three of yesterday's show. Grab it

0:31:54.520 --> 0:31:59.120
<v Speaker 3>via podcast Armstrong in Getty on demand Data says I

0:31:59.200 --> 0:32:01.719
<v Speaker 3>was one hundred percent agreement with you about people just

0:32:02.000 --> 0:32:04.000
<v Speaker 3>picking up and moving and how great that was to

0:32:04.120 --> 0:32:06.720
<v Speaker 3>chase where the opportunities are the way we used to.

0:32:06.800 --> 0:32:08.680
<v Speaker 3>But it dawned on me that most households are made

0:32:08.720 --> 0:32:11.120
<v Speaker 3>up to working people. Only one of those people has

0:32:11.120 --> 0:32:12.920
<v Speaker 3>lost their job. Makes it harder to pick up and move.

0:32:13.000 --> 0:32:19.920
<v Speaker 4>Wow, very wise, perception of being definitely degrees more difficult.

0:32:20.280 --> 0:32:23.360
<v Speaker 3>Because of the length of the piece we're discussing yesterday,

0:32:23.400 --> 0:32:26.560
<v Speaker 3>I left that out. The author did point that out,

0:32:26.600 --> 0:32:30.719
<v Speaker 3>and also that in divorced couples, child custody agreements make

0:32:30.760 --> 0:32:31.880
<v Speaker 3>it much harder to pick.

0:32:31.800 --> 0:32:34.040
<v Speaker 1>Up it right, right, So the complexity of.

0:32:34.080 --> 0:32:38.800
<v Speaker 3>The modern world has definitely hurt our ability to find opportunity.

0:32:38.160 --> 0:32:42.200
<v Speaker 1>Wherever it lies, no doubt. Wow, rich and beautiful green

0:32:42.320 --> 0:32:42.840
<v Speaker 1>organ rites.

0:32:43.160 --> 0:32:45.040
<v Speaker 4>In fact, well, yeah, picking up and leaving when you

0:32:45.120 --> 0:32:48.680
<v Speaker 4>got two careers that have to the in the same

0:32:48.760 --> 0:32:52.280
<v Speaker 4>location start over again at the same time, it's a

0:32:52.400 --> 0:32:53.560
<v Speaker 4>pretty daunting task.

0:32:54.160 --> 0:32:55.360
<v Speaker 1>It is very complicated.

0:32:55.480 --> 0:32:59.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, guys, how can we hear little about SpaceX rescuing

0:32:59.800 --> 0:33:02.680
<v Speaker 3>these stranded astronauts. The ten day mission turns into nine months.

0:33:02.720 --> 0:33:05.200
<v Speaker 3>The government can't get them. I would point out the

0:33:05.240 --> 0:33:09.040
<v Speaker 3>Boeing folks floundered Elon to the rescue, but the media

0:33:09.080 --> 0:33:12.160
<v Speaker 3>barely mentions it. Yeah, well that's because he's a bad guy.

0:33:12.200 --> 0:33:17.240
<v Speaker 3>Now he's evil, He's evil. Mfaae my favorite African American

0:33:17.320 --> 0:33:19.560
<v Speaker 3>Elon rich and Oregon.

0:33:21.040 --> 0:33:21.800
<v Speaker 1>Let's see.

0:33:22.720 --> 0:33:24.680
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if I'm supposed to sing this, but

0:33:25.160 --> 0:33:28.680
<v Speaker 3>another Jay in San Jose writes on the sixth level

0:33:28.680 --> 0:33:32.480
<v Speaker 3>of chess Trump gave to US. Iran nukes are part

0:33:32.520 --> 0:33:36.200
<v Speaker 3>of the Russian deal. It's all part of that giant

0:33:36.320 --> 0:33:42.400
<v Speaker 3>Omni deal Russia, China, Iran, god arafs.

0:33:42.760 --> 0:33:43.200
<v Speaker 1>I play.

0:33:43.840 --> 0:33:47.160
<v Speaker 4>I play one dimensional chess with my son, and I

0:33:47.200 --> 0:33:48.840
<v Speaker 4>have lost eight times in a row.

0:33:48.920 --> 0:33:53.440
<v Speaker 3>Now eight times in a row. Wow, the student has

0:33:53.440 --> 0:33:56.960
<v Speaker 3>become the master. The master needs to up his game. See,

0:33:56.960 --> 0:33:59.040
<v Speaker 3>I still call the Knight the Horsey. So I don't

0:33:59.080 --> 0:34:04.040
<v Speaker 3>get any game currently. Concentration is my biggest foe. I

0:34:04.160 --> 0:34:07.120
<v Speaker 3>just I space out and then I make mistakes. Yeah,

0:34:07.160 --> 0:34:11.560
<v Speaker 3>tell me about it. Magnus and Tucson writes, aquifer depletion

0:34:11.640 --> 0:34:13.680
<v Speaker 3>dust bowl. I remember hearing that we're depleting all the

0:34:13.680 --> 0:34:15.919
<v Speaker 3>water in the aquifers in the Midwest, the West too,

0:34:16.120 --> 0:34:18.080
<v Speaker 3>and when it's gone there will be a Midwest dust

0:34:18.120 --> 0:34:21.840
<v Speaker 3>bowl for decades. Yeah, the climate change stuff is way overblown.

0:34:21.880 --> 0:34:25.040
<v Speaker 3>It's a profit center for green new scammers. The pumping

0:34:25.040 --> 0:34:28.000
<v Speaker 3>out the aquifers too fast stuff. I have talked to

0:34:28.000 --> 0:34:31.640
<v Speaker 3>people who are completely responsible, saying, people who point out

0:34:31.800 --> 0:34:35.279
<v Speaker 3>that just means underground water. Essentially, we're pumping it out

0:34:35.400 --> 0:34:38.319
<v Speaker 3>way faster than nature. Then nature can replenish it, and

0:34:38.320 --> 0:34:39.440
<v Speaker 3>we're making a serious mistake.

0:34:39.480 --> 0:34:40.319
<v Speaker 1>I believe that to be true.

0:34:40.440 --> 0:34:43.200
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, dust storms that are causing fifty car pile ups

0:34:43.200 --> 0:34:45.719
<v Speaker 4>in the Midwest that hasn't been around for a long time.

0:34:47.080 --> 0:34:48.839
<v Speaker 3>And then this, I don't think we have time. We'll

0:34:48.880 --> 0:34:51.560
<v Speaker 3>just start it and we'll finish it off next hour.

0:34:51.680 --> 0:34:58.160
<v Speaker 3>But Eric, frequent correspondent guy it writes guys, because accuracy

0:34:58.360 --> 0:35:00.839
<v Speaker 3>is your hallmark, I am compelled to respond to John

0:35:00.880 --> 0:35:03.560
<v Speaker 3>from Kansas, who suggested yesterday's mail bag that the term

0:35:03.600 --> 0:35:06.880
<v Speaker 3>woman is derived from the Old English womb plus man

0:35:07.200 --> 0:35:09.839
<v Speaker 3>to mean woman. Well, this makes for a good story,

0:35:09.880 --> 0:35:12.680
<v Speaker 3>I'm afraid is not supported by the literature. Yeah, even

0:35:12.719 --> 0:35:14.680
<v Speaker 3>as I said it, I knew this is you know,

0:35:14.719 --> 0:35:20.120
<v Speaker 3>it's it's disputed. All these things are other Oh yeah, absolutely,

0:35:20.920 --> 0:35:26.279
<v Speaker 3>I won't dispute that. The other possible explanations where the

0:35:26.360 --> 0:35:28.520
<v Speaker 3>term woman came from coming up next hour.

0:35:28.600 --> 0:35:30.600
<v Speaker 4>Okay, and if you miss a segment, get the podcast
