I hope we 10 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 2: can really paint a picture in terms of our consciousness 11 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:41,400 Speaker 2: of how impactful this has been on the LATINX community. 12 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:45,199 Speaker 2: About three quarters of renters in the state that have 13 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 2: fallen behind and rent represented the Latino and African American community. 14 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 1: The LATINX and Black communities. 15 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 2: You've got politicians that are banning not assault rifles, but 16 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 2: the word LATINX. 17 00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: They're not even serious. 18 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 3: Wow, that's even further So that's Gavin Newsom doing his 19 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:05,039 Speaker 3: bro podcasts that he's doing all across the country now 20 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 3: as he tries to be like just a regular guy 21 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:10,120 Speaker 3: running for president, and he's doing a pretty good job 22 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 3: of it might work for him, but claiming that LATINX. 23 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 3: Whoever even heard of that before? What does that even mean? 24 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 3: And then a little montage of him using the term 25 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:23,679 Speaker 3: in recent years, including one and where he's fighting against 26 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 3: trying to take away the word LATINX, blasting anybody who would. 27 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 1: Dare disparage it. Oh boy, but oh but it works. 28 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 3: People don't hear the you know, like in newspapers or books, 29 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 3: there's the big headline and then there's a little sentence underneath. 30 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 3: People don't hear the sentence underneath. Ninety percent of people. 31 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 3: They just get the big headline of everything, of every story. 32 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 1: And that's funny. Though. He's got to run away from 33 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 1: so much of that stuff because it's so freaking crazy. 34 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I mean yeah.

For instance, as we 38 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 4: outlined last hour, cal Unicorney has lost one hundred and 39 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,639 Speaker 4: a half hundred thousand private sector jobs and added three 40 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 4: hundred and sixty one thousand government jobs since twenty twenty two. 41 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 1: It's just astonishing. 42 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 3: Well, let's be happy about this stuff though, people, Rather 43 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 3: than condemning the hypocrisy, we should be happy he understands 44 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 3: that he needs to run away from the nonsense like 45 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 3: trans boys in girls sports or the term LATINX, which 46 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 3: is one of the dumbest things that's ever happened in 47 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 3: my lifetime. He has to run away from it if 48 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,799 Speaker 3: he wants to be president. He is determined, and he's right, 49 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:47,959 Speaker 3: and that's good. 50 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 4: News, right it is, Although don't let down your guard 51 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 4: because we've received I don't know half a dozen emails 52 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 4: just in the last forty eight hours from folks that 53 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 4: are getting ready to get back in the classroom as 54 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 4: teachers in California and are going through their state mandated 55 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 4: DEI white supremacist woke doctrine right now. They're getting educated 56 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 4: in that quote unquote educated. So getting back to Gavy, 57 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:17,519 Speaker 4: and we talked about this fairly recently. If you're just 58 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,399 Speaker 4: tuning in, but the whole bed bath and beyond thing, 59 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 4: the head of bed bath and beyond. Do you have 60 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 4: that statement or I mean for people who are not familiar, 61 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 4: just real. 62 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 1: Quickly, yes, I do. 63 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, this is I got the other screen up 64 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 3: about shreking a dating trend in which people are dating 65 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 3: unattractive people on purpose. That story we got to get 66 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 3: to later this hour. Yes, yes, yes, and different species 67 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 3: of giraffes. Yes, I already did the giraffes shreking. We 68 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 3: will do this hour though. It's an actual thing and 69 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 3: it's really quite entertaining. 70 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: Point. 71 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 3: So the CEO of Bed, Bath and Beyond puts out 72 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 3: a statement yesterday, we will not operate or open retail 73 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 3: stores in California. This decision isn't about politics, It's about reality. 74 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 3: California has created one of the most regulated, expensive and 75 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 3: risky environments for business in America. It's a system that 76 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 3: makes it harder to employ people, harder to keep doors open, 77 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 3: and harder to deliver value to customers. The result higher taxes, 78 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 3: hire fees, higher wages that many businesses simply cannot sustain. 79 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 4: And then Gavin Newsom, in a snarky social media post yesterday, replied. 80 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 1: The company that already went bankrupt and closed every store 81 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 1: across the country two years ago. 82 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,359 Speaker 4: Okay, I will be responding to that in a moment. 83 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 4: After a word from Kevin McCarthy, former Speaker of the House, 84 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 4: multi generation cal Unicornean thirty three, Michael. 85 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 5: There's another example of a failed California under Gavin. Instead 86 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 5: of a governor going out trying to create businesses, he 87 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 5: continues to push them away. We saw not just businesses 88 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 5: go away, but we're losing population because of the problem 89 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 5: of how they're governing California. 90 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,559 Speaker 1: All right, thank you, Kevin. Good to hear your voice. 91 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: What's the beyond? I get bedd and back, but what's 92 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: the beyond? 93 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 4: Hallways, kitchens, multiple rooms and door corridors can be furnished. 94 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 4: All right, So, Gavin, here is my response to your 95 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 4: sarcasm anti rooms. Oh yeah, Foyers, window, don't get me started. 96 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 3: Window treatment, that's all absolutely yes, although you do have 97 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 3: windows in beds and baths. 98 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: Michael. So is it a good point? Yeah, okay, where 99 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 1: were we? I'm sure there was a thread? 100 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 4: Oh yes, So Gavin's snark about a CEO saying your 101 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 4: state is so hostile to business and so difficult to 102 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:49,840 Speaker 4: operate in, We're not even gonna try. And instead of 103 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 4: addressing policy, he says, oh, yeah, the same company that 104 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 4: went bankrupt and closed all their stores two years ago. 105 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 4: Let me explain something to you, Gavin, Because you were 106 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 4: born with a silver spoon in your mouth. You've been 107 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 4: successful in business because you've been bankrolled up to your 108 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,600 Speaker 4: ears by all of your rich relatives. 109 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:08,799 Speaker 1: But here's the way it works. 110 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 4: Big companies sometimes failed to adjust with the times. Something 111 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 4: you know changes whatever. They're unsuccessful, they declare bankruptcy and 112 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 4: they reorganize. Bed Bath and Beyond has a lot of fans. 113 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,040 Speaker 4: It's a cool store. I'm a fan, Judy and I 114 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:30,040 Speaker 4: shop there for a lot of stuff for years and years, 115 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 4: and we're super bummed to hear it was closing. Well, 116 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 4: now they're reopening with a little different concept that's going 117 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,039 Speaker 4: to be better for consumers and more likely to be 118 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 4: a successful business. It's the very thing we treasure in America. 119 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 4: Gavin innovation, adaptation, creativity and sticking to it. And these 120 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,239 Speaker 4: people who are doing that said, the one place we're 121 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 4: not going to bother is California because it's so hostile 122 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,919 Speaker 4: to business. Go ahead, Gavy, give us some more of 123 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 4: your clever, clever snark. Uh what a blank?

The term derives its 178 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 3: name from the animated film Shrek. I think you can 179 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 3: figure that out. Shreking involves dating someone you're not attracted 180 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 3: to in the hopes that this person will treat you 181 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 3: better in return. Unfortunately, when you get shrecked as a verb, 182 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 3: it means the person you lowered your standards for still 183 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 3: ended up hurting you or not treating. 184 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 1: You very well.

If you 192 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 3: even have in your mind at all that you're dating down, 193 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,200 Speaker 3: it is doomed.

And it seems that no, they never did. 334 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 3: He either made it up, which I don't think that's it. 335 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 3: I think he just misinterpreted something. Russia's never agreed to 336 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 3: the whole security guarantees of European troops on the ground 337 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 3: in Ukraine. He thought they did, and that's where all 338 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 3: this flowed from. 339 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 4: Or theomaster manipulators manipulated him into thinking that they had 340 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 4: agreed to that, because you know, you got to admit 341 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 4: among their options is just outright lies. Sure, of course, 342 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 4: although your metaphor, by the way, people are really enjoying, 343 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 4: as I've talked about this in real life, that the 344 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 4: flowers have been arranged, the toast has been written, the 345 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 4: guest list has been gone over a couple of times, 346 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 4: and the groom says, get married. 347 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 1: What that's putin right in my agreement? When is it 348 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 1: going to dawn on? 349 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 3: Well, the president, but when is it going to dawn 350 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 3: on all the media and everybody else and all the 351 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:04,360 Speaker 3: pundits writing this and that that Putin has zero interest 352 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 3: in this. He's just he did you know, you know, Bud, 353 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 3: I heard this this morning several times on several different 354 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 3: cable shows overnight, and this is true. Russia attacked Ukraine 355 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:21,200 Speaker 3: with the highest number of drones and rockets in a month, 356 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,919 Speaker 3: one of the biggest attacks of the entire war. And 357 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 3: then they say something like this could derail the peace process. 358 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,239 Speaker 3: When is it going to occur to you that he 359 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 3: isn't thinking about that, That's not on his mind. 360 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 1: He wasn't thinking how will this affect the peace process 361 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: when he sent in the drones and the missiles. In fact, 362 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 1: when you say it out loud, I laughed. 363 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 4: I mean I couldn't tell myself, and not out of mirth, 364 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 4: out of you know, horror and recognition. 365 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 1: Of course, what a bizarre thing to even say. 366 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,119 Speaker 4: And yet that's the assumption that's been running through all 367 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,200 Speaker 4: of this the you know, back to my theme. 368 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:00,120 Speaker 1: Of human being. 369 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 4: I I'm not sold on us as a species. I 370 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:10,160 Speaker 4: think there is a huge vein of self delusion running 371 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 4: through this whole thing, which Putin is more than delighted 372 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 4: to exploit. 373 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: With with Trump. 374 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 3: I can't figure out if it's a It's the classic 375 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 3: sales tactic of you act like there's a deal, you know, 376 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 3: in the hopes that there is one, and if there 377 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,400 Speaker 3: isn't one at the end, well you know there wasn't. 378 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 3: But is he just pretending doing the whole sales guy 379 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 3: thing or does he actually believe Putin's you know, we 380 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 3: got the hot mic moment with him and mccron. You know, 381 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:42,880 Speaker 3: might not believe this, but I think he really wants 382 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 3: to do a deal for me. I mean Trump said that, 383 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 3: not in front of the cameras. 384 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, every president's a bit of an egomaniac. I mean, 385 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 4: it's just it's one of the job requirements. But Trump 386 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 4: Trump is ego driven in a way that others have 387 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 4: not been really, or at least he's just much more 388 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 4: obviously driven by various by the feeling of status and 389 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,360 Speaker 4: praise and reputation, that sort of thing. And he fancies 390 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 4: himself the world's greatest deal maker. And he saw an 391 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 4: enormously challenging, an enormously important deal to be made. 392 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 1: I mean, with the loss of life. He's absolutely right. 393 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:28,239 Speaker 4: And I just wonder whether Trump isn't so desirous of 394 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 4: a deal that it's led him to misperceive certain realities. 395 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 1: He's wanted it too much, which is funny. 396 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:42,400 Speaker 4: It might have been Charlie Cook at the National Review 397 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,679 Speaker 4: somebody who's listening to the other day mentioned that he 398 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 4: needs to reread his own book, The Art of the Deal, 399 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,639 Speaker 4: which he allegedly well, he wrote with a ghostwriter, but 400 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 4: because it's made bluntly clear in that book, if you 401 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 4: want the deal more than the other guy, you're gonna 402 00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 4: get screwed. And it's funny that dynamic seems to be 403 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 4: playing out here again. It might be motivated partly by 404 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 4: his ego but partly by a desire to quit seeing 405 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:11,159 Speaker 4: children killed, which is, you know, God bless him for that. 406 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 4: But either way, the risk of if you don't give 407 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 4: up crap about a deal, your risk of being played 408 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 4: by Putin is very high. If you deal with him, 409 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 4: if you really really want a deal, holy cow, you're 410 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,359 Speaker 4: in trouble. Well, it's possibly he just was misled by 411 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 4: Witkoff came back and told him, say, I talked to Putin. 412 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 4: Putin said he's okay with European troops on the ground 413 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 4: in Ukraine as a peacekeeping force. In Trump thought, okay, great, 414 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:39,719 Speaker 4: that's a good starting point. Now let's get everybody together. 415 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 4: And turns out that's not true, that was never out, 416 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 4: that was never said. Maybe it's just that the naivete 417 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 4: that Americans so often have and dealing with people from 418 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 4: other cultures. Or I could see the Russian saying something like, 419 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 4: uh uh, that is something we would be willing to consider, 420 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,159 Speaker 4: and of course they would never ever accept it. But 421 00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 4: they just said they'd be willing to consider it, so 422 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 4: of course we would consider it, so we can reject it. 423 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 4: And he said they said they'd consider European peace streaping 424 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 4: keeping troops. 425 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: I don't know. 426 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 3: I don't think there's any way Putin ever accepts the 427 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:16,399 Speaker 3: idea of thousands of French Russian. Well, the Telegraph headline 428 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,880 Speaker 3: yesterday was US Air Force could police Ukraine skies as 429 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,880 Speaker 3: ten European nations are ready to send peacekeeping forces. Ten 430 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 3: according to the Telegraph. I just don't I don't see 431 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,200 Speaker 3: how he's going to allow that at all. And then 432 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:35,159 Speaker 3: that whole US patrolling the skies. I saw some former 433 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 3: military dude talking about that, and how how you know 434 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 3: the devil's really in the details on that. Are we 435 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 3: going to go with the if we're shot at, we're 436 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,639 Speaker 3: going to respond. I mean, is that the rules of 437 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 3: engagement or not? And would it all only be defensive? 438 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 3: Would it be offensive? If if French and British troops 439 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 3: came under fire, would we let them handle that on 440 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 3: the ground or do we immediately go offensive into Russia 441 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 3: attacking you stopping that? I mean, what would be the 442 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:12,439 Speaker 3: rules of engagement on that? 443 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:14,359 Speaker 1: Well? Right, it's an excellent question. 444 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 4: I think any soldier, professional soldier could tell you the 445 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,919 Speaker 4: idea of purely defensive war is not war. That's a 446 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 4: shooting gallery. You just volunteer to be in a shooting gallery. 447 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 4: Ask a lot of the guys who served in Afghanistan 448 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 4: during some of the incredibly ill advised rules of engagement 449 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 4: which handcuffed them and told them you can't shoot until 450 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 4: you're being shot at. Horrifying, but don't get me started. 451 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:37,119 Speaker 4: So it's an excellent question. 452 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 3: We'd be really into the war and very close to 453 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:47,120 Speaker 3: at war with Russia if we decide to supply air cover. 454 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 1: Correct. 455 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 4: I mentioned this note from JT. We got why does 456 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 4: Putin need to sign anything? Since Russia will violate any 457 00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 4: agreement they'll like violated the moment it's they just don't care, 458 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,160 Speaker 4: And he asks, how would a signature by Putin change 459 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:06,159 Speaker 4: a single thing about what European troops would do to 460 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,680 Speaker 4: support Ukraine. They already know they can't trust him, so 461 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 4: why not just put boots on the ground and demand 462 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 4: that the current lines be honored or else The Trilac 463 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 4: group will respond, I'm totally serious. Name one thing that 464 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 4: would be different in the deployment of European troops if 465 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 4: Putin signed an agreement. It's you know what, most of 466 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 4: it's just political jt a. It would give you legitimacy 467 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 4: internationally in a way that I think is really jivy, 468 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:40,160 Speaker 4: and it's hard for us to understand why anybody would 469 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 4: give a crap about that. It's like, you know, the 470 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 4: plausible deniability of saying those soldiers who took over eastern 471 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 4: Ukraine not to Russian forces there come to be called 472 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 4: the little Green men because it was so such a 473 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:57,400 Speaker 4: joke that they weren't Russian forces. But for some reason 474 00:26:57,400 --> 00:26:59,640 Speaker 4: that sort of plausible deniability matters, I guess. 475 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 1: Anyway. My point is the agreement that would be signed. 476 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 4: Might help to give international legitimacy when the Allied forces 477 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 4: struck back against Putin. But I wouldn't spend a lot 478 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,440 Speaker 4: of time in trouble getting Putin to sign on to 479 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 4: something he's going to violate next week. If, as you 480 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 4: are hinting at JT, the only thing Putin cares about 481 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:35,879 Speaker 4: is force and power, organize the force and say you 482 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,200 Speaker 4: cross this trip wire the force is going to be 483 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 4: used against you or through talking. I think that would 484 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 4: be perfectly fine if you are willing to accept that 485 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 4: it's worth Europe and the US's interests and risk of 486 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 4: escalating to back Ukraine in that way. 487 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 1: I know a lot of you don't. Well, it works 488 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 1: both ways too. 489 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 3: I've been I'm a fan of George will of the 490 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 3: Washington Post, and he's been talking and writing for years 491 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 3: about Article five, the whole NATO thing. That's as rock 492 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 3: solid and agreement as you can get. But he always 493 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 3: talks about treaties and agreements are true until they're not. 494 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 3: And at any point any NATO nation, including the United States, 495 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:14,400 Speaker 3: could decide, you know what, we're not going. 496 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 1: To go to the war for Estonia or whoever one 497 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 1: of the NATO nations. We're just not. 498 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:20,240 Speaker 3: I know we're supposed to, but we're not in the 499 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:23,879 Speaker 3: same way that Putin would violate his Any European country 500 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:27,639 Speaker 3: could violate the NATO agreement and might. I'll bet I 501 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,399 Speaker 3: hope it doesn't happen, but I'll bet we see that 502 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 3: around Taiwan at some point the whole you're not going 503 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 3: to take that, Okay, well. 504 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:36,639 Speaker 1: I guess maybe they are. And we're not going to 505 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 1: actually go to war with China over then, which. 506 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 4: Is why countries work so hard to be intertwined, because 507 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 4: international agreements only exist as long as they serve the individual. 508 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 1: Countries, you know, individual interests. 509 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 3: Putin is hoping that the NATO countries won't actually honor 510 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 3: that Article five. Article five an attack on one and 511 00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 3: is an attack on all that won't actually or that 512 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 3: when it comes to push and shove over you know, 513 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 3: I don't know a chuck of pol under a Stonia 514 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 3: or whatever. 515 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 4: This is the opposite of strategic ambiguity. I think we 516 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 4: ought to have utter strategic clarity. You like, screw up 517 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 4: the turf on a soccer field in Estonia, We'll put 518 00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 4: one hundred thousand troops there the next day. 519 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: I don't know. 520 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 3: I don't know if a Stonia is actually a NATO 521 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 3: or not. But that's not my point. Just one of 522 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 3: those little NATO countries. Are we going to go to 523 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 3: war over that or not? 524 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 4: I'm talking about the and they are the Baltic nations. Yeah, 525 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,719 Speaker 4: that's what I'm saying, one hundred percent clarity. That is 526 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 4: a practically one hundred percent guarantee against aggression at against 527 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 4: it going from step one, the little green men and 528 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:49,480 Speaker 4: the minor incursions to quote the world's worst president, Joe Biden. 529 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 1: It's a guarantee against them. Yeah. 530 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 3: Well, there might be a reason that people aren't saying 531 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 3: that out loud. They don't want to be they don't 532 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 3: want to be held to it Estonia. 533 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 4: When I am elected president number one, God help us 534 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 4: number two, I will make that policy clear. 535 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 1: A lot of golf. 536 00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:11,760 Speaker 3: Estonia has been a member of NATO since two thousand 537 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 3: and four, So there you go. They are And how 538 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 3: many of you ever even heard of Estonia? Would you 539 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 3: want your kid fighting in Estonia to protect it? And 540 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 3: that'll be a political question at some point. 541 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: Maybe we got a lot more on the way. Stay here. 542 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 9: Armstrong, a british Man, set a Guinness World Record by 543 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 9: writing fifty five different roller coasters in one week.

I mean, just a 562 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 1: ball really is. 563 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 3: And the fact that there are a bunch of people 564 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 3: that think that and actually do that is disgusting. 565 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:53,959 Speaker 1: This might be how I got married. Yeah, Well maybe 566 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 1: I'm just so outraged because I'm wondering how often does 567 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 1: this happened to me? 568 00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 4: As a friend of the Armstrong and Getty Show, wrote 569 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 4: I thought I was just charming. 570 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 1: Well, now I know. 571 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 3: On the topic though. So a person I know said 572 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 3: that some of her friends have done this. They have 573 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,720 Speaker 3: dated down thinking they would get treated better, and then 574 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 3: weren't treated better, and so they call that being shrekeed 575 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,239 Speaker 3: and were disappointed. And as Joe pointed out, maybe they 576 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 3: just figured out you're a shallow bitch. 577 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 1: A manipulative she devils.
