1
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: I'll know and welcome back to normally the show with

2
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:10,000
Speaker 1: normalist takes for when the news gets weird. I am

3
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:13,840
Speaker 1: Carol Markowitz. Mary Katherine Han's on education today, and filling

4
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 1: in for her is my very good friend Gates Garcia.

5
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,760
Speaker 1: Gates is a contributor at Daily Wire and The Blaze

6
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:23,720
Speaker 1: and the host of We the People with Gates Garcia

7
00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:27,720
Speaker 1: on YouTube and all audio programs. It's so nice to

8
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 1: have you on, Gates, Carol.

9
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 2: I prefer to be with you on the beach or

10
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 2: at the boat, but this is a close second.

11
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:36,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is second best. We're going to have to

12
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:36,919
Speaker 1: just take it.

13
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 3: So.

14
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:39,559
Speaker 1: I feel a lot of affinity with you for a

15
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:42,519
Speaker 1: lot of reasons. But I like that you focus on culture.

16
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,920
Speaker 1: I think that that's what I do as well. You

17
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 1: have a piece up on the Blaze site today. Can

18
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 1: you preview that for our listeners?

19
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:49,920
Speaker 3: Yeah?

20
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 2: So, I mean I'm a data three soon to before

21
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 2: baby Girl coming on Christmas, which we're.

22
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 3: Really excited about, as you know.

23
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 2: Yea, and I just you know, in the last ten years,

24
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 2: because my oldest is I just see the world through

25
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 2: the eyes of a father. It's changed my whole perspective

26
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 2: on culture it's one thing for you know, the world

27
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 2: to attack me. When it starts attacking my kids, I

28
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 2: get pissed off. All to Beauty has stripped me of

29
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 2: a rite of passage that every mother and father should

30
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,759
Speaker 2: share with their kids. And that is one that you're

31
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,680
Speaker 2: afraid of. It's that old birds and the bees conversation.

32
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 2: But I never and I've been preparing for that, and

33
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 2: I don't know when that day's coming.

34
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 3: It's probably closer than farther away.

35
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 2: But one conversation Carol and we've talked about this that

36
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 2: I didn't think i'd be having. First was talking to

37
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 2: my ten year old daughter about boys wanting to be

38
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 2: girls and girls wanted to be.

39
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 3: Boys, and she's just getting into makeup. So ol to

40
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:43,319
Speaker 3: Beauty is.

41
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 2: Like a stop for us at the mall and no

42
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 2: longer because I now had to explain their campaign ad

43
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 2: about that. So I wrote an article about this because one,

44
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 2: it stripped me of a moment that I was preparing

45
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 2: for as a father and put one in front of

46
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 2: it that I was caught off guard with. And two,

47
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 2: I just have a hell of a lot of respect

48
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 2: for women, especially badass women like you like my wife,

49
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 2: like a lot of others in our field, and it's

50
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 2: totally disrespectful to them. Makeup is supposed to help women

51
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 2: be seen, and a makeup company has chosen to use

52
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 2: an ad campaign that erases women. So I think it's laughable,

53
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,639
Speaker 2: and I think the proof's always already in the pudding

54
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,799
Speaker 2: with lost customers, stock price and all that.

55
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it's such an interesting point because I

56
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,799
Speaker 1: think that they're obviously the erasure of women point has

57
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 1: been made, but I have not heard anybody make the

58
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 1: point that you don't want to have to explain certain

59
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: things to young children, and that you don't you don't

60
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 1: want to kind of get ahead of yourself about what

61
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 1: the world is like and what they're going to see

62
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: in the world, and you want to maintain their innocence

63
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,079
Speaker 1: for a little while and don't want to plant ideas

64
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: in their head either. Is the is one of the

65
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: other things that kind of doesn't get discussed. So I

66
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 1: read your piece. I loved your piece. I recommend everybody

67
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 1: go check it out on the Blaze. If you also

68
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: write for Daily Wire or anything coming up there that

69
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 1: we should.

70
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 2: Know about, Well, we got to keep it PG on

71
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 2: your on your show. But there's this whole Uh yeah,

72
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 2: there's some things being thrown on the court in w

73
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 2: NBA games, and so I write about this. We've had

74
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 2: four of them land on the court. One of them,

75
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:19,239
Speaker 2: I'm an easy I was waiting for permission. So four

76
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 2: of these dildos have landed on the court and one

77
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 2: sadly missed the court and hit a twelve year old girl.

78
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 3: And so my piece is a little bit more lighthearted.

79
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 2: I kind of write all my pieces from the perspective

80
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 2: of just like an everyday dude living his life. And certainly, yeah,

81
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 2: exactly so, like I do say in the piece, look

82
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 2: I laughed at some of these incidents. My text message

83
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 2: changed with my buddies have been funnier than usual.

84
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 3: But at the same time, like.

85
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 2: There is a decorum of respect that we have to

86
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 2: have for one professionals implementing their craft. Like, no one's

87
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 2: throwing dildos at me and my job. I'd be pretty

88
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 2: upset with that. And just women in general. I can

89
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 2: guarantee you that everyone throwing these as a man. And

90
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 2: so the whole piece, and the whole point of the

91
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 2: piece is like something can be funny and wrong, that's

92
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 2: not those can be mutually exclusive and we just have

93
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 2: to learn how is a culture to balance that and

94
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 2: the whole build of things gone like way too far

95
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 2: in my.

96
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: Absolutely, and if it was your kid being hit with

97
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:18,239
Speaker 1: one of those, it would really stop being funny very quickly.

98
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, and spoiler alert, one of the five men has

99
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 2: been caught and he was wearing.

100
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,280
Speaker 3: A Beavis and butt Head shirt. So I think that

101
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 3: tells it all care Yeah, it makes sense.

102
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 1: Well, looking forward to reading that. I think you're fantastic,

103
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 1: as you know, so I'm really glad to be co

104
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,040
Speaker 1: hosting with you on normally. Today, We're going to get

105
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 1: right into it, friends. The first topic of the day

106
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 1: is the crime beat in d C. Obviously, the Trump

107
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,279
Speaker 1: administration has taken over the DC Police Department. On the

108
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,280
Speaker 1: first day of the crackdown, federal and local authorities made

109
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: twenty three arrests, including suspects wanted for murder, gun offences,

110
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 1: and other crimes. People are wondering how is the Trump

111
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 1: administed allowed to do this? And I think it needs

112
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 1: to be clarified that the District of Columbia's Home Rule

113
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 1: Act allows Trump to place the Metropolitan Police Department under

114
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 1: federal control for up to thirty days. Trump and invoke

115
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 1: the law on Mondays, so it'd be thirty days from there.

116
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:20,159
Speaker 1: I think it's fantastic. I think it's really a good idea,

117
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: and a lot of people who are angry about it

118
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 1: aren't making a lot of sense when they're angry about it.

119
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,599
Speaker 1: And an underreported fact is that the mayor of DC

120
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,479
Speaker 1: is into it. On Tuesday, Mayor Muriel Bowser met with

121
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 1: federal officials to discuss coordination and strategy for the federal

122
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,479
Speaker 1: law enforcement presence. What do you think Gate's a good idea,

123
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 1: bad idea.

124
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 3: I think it's a great idea.

125
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 2: It's called accountability, and all of us in our jobs

126
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 2: are held accountable to a standard, and when we don't

127
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,919
Speaker 2: meet those standards, we aren't asked to perform anymore. And

128
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 2: I don't know why in all professions other than the

129
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,720
Speaker 2: police force, it shouldn't be the same way. And the

130
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 2: biggest question you covered at first is like is this legal?

131
00:05:59,160 --> 00:05:59,840
Speaker 3: Yes, it is.

132
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,159
Speaker 2: So Trump made promises in his campaign and this is

133
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 2: him keeping those promises.

134
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 3: And look, I lived in DC.

135
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 2: I went to college in DC and we had a

136
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 2: dorm demolished on our campus. It was the only dorm

137
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,160
Speaker 2: that was technically across the street from the main campus

138
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 2: demolished because the crime was so rampant.

139
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,679
Speaker 3: They were drive by shootings on that dorm.

140
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 2: So I've seen this going back fifteen plus years, and

141
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,040
Speaker 2: it's about time someone steps up there. The other thing,

142
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 2: like Carol, you and I have a lot of friends

143
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,600
Speaker 2: that quote air quotes live in DC. When you meet

144
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 2: somebody that says, oh, I'm from DC, you say, oh,

145
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:37,480
Speaker 2: what neighborhood Alexandria Arlington, like Zach no one lives in DC.

146
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 2: They drive and do their job, but they keep their

147
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 2: families out. So I think that's important to keep them perspective.

148
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely, And this whole idea that like and Mary

149
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 1: Catherine and I covered it on Monday's episode where oh

150
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: a crime has gotten better in DC? Well, for one thing,

151
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 1: has it gotten better? You know a lot of crimes

152
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 1: just aren't prosecuted. Babylon b had a great headline Democrat

153
00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 1: mayors report violent crime down forty percent since they redefined

154
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 1: violent and crime. Love the Babylon be But for example,

155
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,480
Speaker 1: Harmei Dylan, who is an Assistant Attorney General for Civil

156
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: Rights at the US Department of Justice, Harmitta is fantastic,

157
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 1: She tweeted, that yesterday a homeless man tried to swipe

158
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 1: her phone out of her hand. Now, these little crimes,

159
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 1: they matter, and she's probably not going to go and

160
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: report that crime. It's not going to be logged as

161
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 1: part of VC's crime problem. It's one of those things

162
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 1: that won't make it into the numbers. But that disarray

163
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: and that disorder still needs to be stopped. And I

164
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 1: think this other argument that like, oh, it's fine, everything's fine.

165
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: Crime levels don't matter. It's quality of life. Yes, but

166
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 1: crime is a roadblock for so many people, especially for

167
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 1: poor people, to improve their situation. Christopher Ruffo posted on

168
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 1: x Nobody wants to say it, but America's poor would

169
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 1: be much better off if we built new prisons rather

170
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 1: than new universities. Crime and violence, not systemic racism or redline,

171
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 1: are the great destroyers of opportunity for the poor. I

172
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 1: so agree with that, And that's why it's so irritating

173
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 1: to me to watch these people on TV say that

174
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 1: crime is not a big deal, and then Girijratis at

175
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 1: MSNBC says he's not worried about crime. Let's roll that.

176
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 4: I think it's really important to be clear about what

177
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 4: is going on here, and a relatively small crime problem

178
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:32,440
Speaker 4: is being used for specific authoritarian purposes that we know

179
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,320
Speaker 4: and understand. So let's be clear about DC does have

180
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 4: a really one, really big crime problem, which was the

181
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 4: January sixth insurrection incited by the current president of the

182
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 4: United States, and his first act in coming back was

183
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 4: pardoning all the people who tried to overturn constitutional republic order.

184
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 3: In Washington, DC.

185
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 4: When I go to DC, I'm not afraid of losing

186
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,080
Speaker 4: my wallet so much as I'm afraid of losing my vote.

187
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,319
Speaker 4: Afraid of losing my wallet so much as I'm afraid

188
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 4: that my children's freedom to breathe will be stolen in

189
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 4: a world where climate change policy is non existent. I'm

190
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 4: afraid that the future of middle class people will be

191
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:16,320
Speaker 4: stolen by the very things you were talking about, cutting

192
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 4: the safety net, cutting Medicaid, cutting rural hospital.

193
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 1: Right, I'm afraid that my kid's right to breathe will

194
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 1: be stolen. This account Hilario Brighton Esquire a very funny

195
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 1: account on X tweeted, I'm always terrified when I'm walking

196
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 1: in the streets of DC at night that some gang

197
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: of youths will sneak up behind me and list certain

198
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 1: expenditures as legal expenses, which is of course what Trump

199
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,520
Speaker 1: is convicted of. I find that all very galling. You know,

200
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 1: that guy doesn't live in DC.

201
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 2: He talks about, you know, he's not worried about losing

202
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,439
Speaker 2: his wallet. He should be worried about losing his wallet

203
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 2: because if he loses his wallet, he won't have his

204
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 2: ID to vote, because we now enforce the law where

205
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,440
Speaker 2: you need your ID to vote, and that will take

206
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 2: his right to vote away.

207
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 3: So he might want to start worrying about that wallet.

208
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 2: I want to go back to what you were saying

209
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:08,440
Speaker 2: about crime being under, the crime levels being whatever they are.

210
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 3: Crime goes unreported when it's not enforced.

211
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 2: You're not going to report a crime if you have

212
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 2: no expectation of the police showing up and enforcing the law.

213
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,560
Speaker 3: So that's why crime is going to stay reported in DC.

214
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,560
Speaker 2: Low crime numbers don't necessarily they usually don't mean low crime.

215
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 3: It's just unreported.

216
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 2: So I have this like sneaky suspicion that once Trump

217
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 2: enforces this stuff, that crime is going to get. Crime

218
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:30,720
Speaker 2: reporting is going to go up, and the Left's going

219
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 2: to try to spend it a crime is actually going

220
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 2: up but what's going up at the same time as

221
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 2: the enforcement of that crime.

222
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:36,960
Speaker 3: Here's what I hate.

223
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 2: DC is like the gateway of the world to see

224
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 2: our country. It's where the most powerful leaders in the

225
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 2: world come to have their first impressions and sometimes last

226
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 2: impressions ever of us. Why if not more than any

227
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,640
Speaker 2: other city in the world, would we want clean streets,

228
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 2: crime levels down, families roaming about safely, no carjackings. Where

229
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,720
Speaker 2: about climate change killing people? Let's study how many climate

230
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 2: things climate change is killed versus carjacking, guns, murders, knives

231
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 2: and all that I had. I was just starting to

232
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,679
Speaker 2: rebuild my trust in mainstream media, just like a like

233
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 2: a worth and then you still see this stuff out there.

234
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 3: He's looking for hot clicks.

235
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 1: Right exactly. I will say that not everyone at MSNBC

236
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:27,439
Speaker 1: feels like an end does. Let's hear from Anthony Coley and.

237
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 5: I live in Washington. This is personal for me. Many

238
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:37,320
Speaker 5: people are frustrated with crime that we see, particularly committed

239
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 5: by juveniles in the in the city of Washington. People

240
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:45,079
Speaker 5: are frustrated really that they when they go to CBS

241
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,280
Speaker 5: to buy deodorant, that they have to get it from

242
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:54,320
Speaker 5: behind locked plexiglass right. But the response here and you know,

243
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 5: let me say this, right, this is not these are

244
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 5: not just random andadotes what we see in Washington Post

245
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 5: polling a month is that roughly half of DC residents,

246
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:08,200
Speaker 5: mostly half of DC, view this as a serious problem

247
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 5: or an extremely serious problem.

248
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: It is a serious problem. I think that that's really

249
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 1: the thing. And this pretense from the media members who

250
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 1: are like, the crime is just isn't that big a deal.

251
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 1: It's like either they don't live in DC, like you've said,

252
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: or they're lying. And I kind of think it's the

253
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:29,080
Speaker 1: second one. I think your you know, your trust in

254
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 1: media was correct in the first place, because they're they're

255
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,599
Speaker 1: just pushing a point of view, and that point of

256
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 1: view is everything's okay. It's Donald Trump that makes everything bad.

257
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,840
Speaker 1: My buddy Curtis Hook at NewsBusters points out that it's

258
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 1: nearly impossible for these media people to not have seen crime.

259
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 1: He writes, it really is stunning to see the liberal

260
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 1: media be so dismissive of crime in Washington, DC as

261
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 1: a major problem when it's likely they know someone who

262
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 1: has been carjacked, chased, harassed, or worse in the last

263
00:12:58,679 --> 00:12:59,679
Speaker 1: five to seven years.

264
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I had one of these situations happened to me.

265
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 2: So I like, you always hear these stories on the news,

266
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 2: and you know, you want to believe that the new

267
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 2: sensationalizes things. But this happened in New York, but that

268
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,080
Speaker 2: I know from friends that this happens in DC. I

269
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 2: was in a Walgreens in New York within the last year,

270
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 2: and a person comes in with a garbage bag and

271
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 2: just swipes a shelf. It was shampoo, shaving stuff and

272
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 2: all that. It was the first time I had seen it,

273
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 2: and I'm like, oh my gosh, this is real. And

274
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:31,959
Speaker 2: I turned to the cashier and I said, hey, look

275
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,080
Speaker 2: look what he's doing. And they go, yeah, it happens

276
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 2: every day. And I said, where's the manager. She goes,

277
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,679
Speaker 2: we will get fired if we confront them because they

278
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 2: will get violent. And so there's that. So there is

279
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 2: no enforcement. And then I worry about like people like

280
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 2: you and me with kids. I'm not necessarily worried about

281
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 2: my kids because I enforced rules in my home. But

282
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 2: like when I grew up, Carol, we were at a party,

283
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,200
Speaker 2: the cops showed up. We were gone, Okay, Now the

284
00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 2: cops don't show up, and if they do, kids have

285
00:13:58,559 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 2: no respect.

286
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 3: They have no fear of the law and no respect

287
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 3: from the law.

288
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 2: And we're raising a whole generation to not even know

289
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 2: what law enforcement's role is in their lives. It's to

290
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 2: keep them safe and to keep them out of their

291
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 2: own harm's way. And you know, it's like the boiling

292
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 2: frog and the pot. Things happened very slowly over time.

293
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 2: We're creating a terrible issue for the youth in this

294
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 2: country when it comes to their view a law enforcement.

295
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 1: My middle son when he heard that theft or shoplifting

296
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 1: under nine hundred dollars in I think it was San

297
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 1: Francisco was not prosecuted, He's like, take me to the

298
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 1: Lego store in San Francisco. I was like, I don't

299
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 1: even know if Lego store is still there. So, because

300
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: you know, a lot of businesses don't stick around for that,

301
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 1: they actually ended up overturning that because it was such

302
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 1: a poor idea. So, yeah, I'm going to end.

303
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 3: This story with San Francisco.

304
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 1: Gross. I'm going to end the story with Sarah Bedford

305
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 1: from DC Examiner. She writes, maybe elite journalists who have

306
00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 1: wrongly substituted their own views for how normals act actually

307
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:04,400
Speaker 1: feel about the economy, the border, transgenderism, and Biden's age

308
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 1: should sit this one out on DC crime. Totally agree

309
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 1: with Sarah. We're going to be right back with more

310
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 1: on Normally. We're going to talk about New York highs

311
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 1: and lows and things that they're doing to improve the

312
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 1: situation and things that they're doing to not improve their situation.

313
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 1: Be right back on Normally. Welcome back on Normally. I'm

314
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 1: here with guest host Gates Garcia. He is fantastic and

315
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 1: you should check out We the People with Gates Garcia

316
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 1: anywhere you get your podcasts. So New York is actually

317
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 1: closing its last migrant hotel because illegal population has plummeted

318
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 1: so much under Donald Trump. It's amazing, actually how much

319
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 1: it has plummeted, and the fact that it was seen

320
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 1: as something impossible, impossible to solve before Donald Trump got

321
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 1: into office.

322
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 2: So New York has had everyone flee their city and

323
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 2: it's gotten so bad that the illegals are even leaving

324
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 2: this is once the safe haven for them. And Trump

325
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 2: shows up again. He's shown up in DC, He's shown

326
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 2: up in New York. You know, hotels are built for tourism.

327
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 2: What is tourism. Tourism brings tax revenue into a city. Instead,

328
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 2: these hotels have turned into migrant homes, which costs money.

329
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 3: And I did the math.

330
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:24,440
Speaker 2: The one that's being closed was costing four thousand dollars

331
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 2: per homeless person per month.

332
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 3: That that math does not add up.

333
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 2: So I'm thrilled to see one of the first saying

334
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 2: and productive fiscal decisions ever to come out of New

335
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 2: York City in the last decade plus.

336
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,520
Speaker 3: But we'll see where it goes from here.

337
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 1: Right because Zarmum Danny is in pole position to be

338
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 1: their next mayor, and it's easy to imagine that he

339
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 1: will say, you know, New York is once again open

340
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 1: for this kind of business because they hope to get

341
00:16:57,840 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: money from the federal government. I don't know that that's

342
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 1: the sly going to happen under the Trump administration, but

343
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:07,440
Speaker 1: it will it would under a future Democrat where they

344
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:11,400
Speaker 1: get funding for this. So I think that the crazy

345
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 1: thing in New York is that they are poised to

346
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:18,159
Speaker 1: elect a mayor who will bring back as much of

347
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,440
Speaker 1: this could as he possibly can. Obviously, when fewer people

348
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,159
Speaker 1: are coming across the border, they have less need for this,

349
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 1: but he can up their sanctuary city status. You can

350
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:32,360
Speaker 1: say we want anybody coming in illegally in our city,

351
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:34,680
Speaker 1: and he can attract it in a way that Eric

352
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 1: Adams just isn't doing right now. On the flip side,

353
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:41,679
Speaker 1: in New York, they just open the country's first city

354
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:48,680
Speaker 1: funded shelter for transgender and gender non conforming people experiencing homelessness. Now,

355
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,159
Speaker 1: it's funny because I actually don't have that much of

356
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 1: a problem with this. I kind of think it's stupid,

357
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 1: but I don't have an issue with having kind of

358
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 1: people who are having gender dysphoria grouped together. I think

359
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,920
Speaker 1: that that if they were offering them help, for example,

360
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 1: that it might be a positive. It will include services

361
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,680
Speaker 1: like individual and group counseling. Of course, those services are

362
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:17,440
Speaker 1: not going to be like helping them with the gender dysphoria.

363
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,400
Speaker 1: It's going to be just helping them lean into that.

364
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 1: So what do you think, Gates?

365
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:24,880
Speaker 2: So I'm also one of these conservatives that I don't

366
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 2: think that conservatives aren't empathetic, but I tend to talk

367
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,360
Speaker 2: about my empathy for this group of people more than

368
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 2: I hear from others. That doesn't mean I condone it,

369
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,399
Speaker 2: that doesn't mean I promote it. That doesn't mean I

370
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 2: don't want it. I want it for my family, because

371
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 2: I don't. But I am empathetic to these individuals. But

372
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 2: I don't know.

373
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:44,640
Speaker 3: That this isn't a step too far.

374
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:49,440
Speaker 2: I mean, we've poured DEI into everywhere we possibly can,

375
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,399
Speaker 2: and now we're pouring it into the homeless community. The

376
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 2: biggest question I have with this is like, how many transgender.

377
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,120
Speaker 3: Homeless people are there in New York City?

378
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 2: Like this a population that is so massive that we

379
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,640
Speaker 2: need to go immediately focus on service for them right now.

380
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:09,159
Speaker 3: These people don't have homes. Like, if you look at

381
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,919
Speaker 3: your basic necessities that you need as a human, you

382
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 3: need food and shelter.

383
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 2: Let's provide this for the homeless people in New York

384
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 2: City that need us to provide it for them. But

385
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 2: why do we have to put them into these ideological

386
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 2: groups based on their gender?

387
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 3: I just don't understand.

388
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, it's funny. I was thinking the same thing,

389
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 1: like how many of them can there be? And I

390
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 1: wonder if it doesn't end up attracting you know, gender

391
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:40,440
Speaker 1: dysphoric youth who maybe aren't completely supported by their parents

392
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:43,080
Speaker 1: or completely the parents aren't aren't letting them lean into

393
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,160
Speaker 1: it all the way to actually become homeless, to run

394
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,199
Speaker 1: away from home. I could tell you that when I

395
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,680
Speaker 1: was a teenager, there was a homeless shelter for teenagers

396
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:55,200
Speaker 1: in Manhattan on like eighteenth Street and Seventh Avenue. It's

397
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 1: actually now it's the Maritime Hotel in New York, and

398
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 1: it became known as like the cool place to go

399
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 1: hang out. Like people would go hang out at this

400
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:07,920
Speaker 1: homeless shelter for teens because it was like, you know

401
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 1: where the funky people were, and you could like have

402
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 1: some street credit school by saying you spent your weekend

403
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:17,359
Speaker 1: hanging out at this homeless shelter. So I wonder if

404
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:21,399
Speaker 1: it doesn't end up growing that population more than anything else.

405
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 2: And the other thing is like I think that gender

406
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 2: dysphoria is a mental disease, and I think we need

407
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 2: to treat it like one so we can put appropriate

408
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 2: resources to helping cure.

409
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 3: Some of these individuals.

410
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 2: We're now far enough into gender dysphoria where we're seeing

411
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,720
Speaker 2: that it contributes to more suicides than many other things

412
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:44,880
Speaker 2: at least that used to lead to suicide. When these

413
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,399
Speaker 2: individuals grow up and they can't go back and reverse

414
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,159
Speaker 2: what they've done. So it's like, hey, we're going to

415
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 2: give you food and shelter, but we're not going to

416
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:54,720
Speaker 2: spend more tax payer dollars on diverse FI unit of

417
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:56,199
Speaker 2: these groups. But hey, we can take some of that

418
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 2: money and maybe fight some of these mental health issues.

419
00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:00,280
Speaker 3: You know, I think back to we just.

420
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 2: Covered something that New York City was doing productively, and

421
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:04,440
Speaker 2: then we go to this. I can't help but think

422
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 2: of my favorite movie movie, Dumb and Dumber, when Lloyd

423
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 2: says her, when Harry says, you know.

424
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:10,840
Speaker 3: Lloyd, just when you go and do something dumb, you

425
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,359
Speaker 3: go and totally redeem yourself. That's what I think about

426
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:15,160
Speaker 3: this whole thing.

427
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 1: Exactly. I have to rewatch that. Actually maybe I don't.

428
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 1: I don't remember if I show it to my kids,

429
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 1: Is it is it time for that yet?

430
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 3: Or nah? Your kids are good?

431
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 1: All right. We are going to take a short break

432
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:33,320
Speaker 1: and come right back with more on Normally. The French

433
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 1: might get air conditioning. We will see, be right back,

434
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Normally. I'm here with guest host Gates Garcia,

435
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 1: and I'll tell you Gates, Mary Catherine Ham and I

436
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:51,120
Speaker 1: love covering when leftists call something right wing. I mean

437
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,160
Speaker 1: some things that have been right wing just this last year.

438
00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:57,400
Speaker 1: Red meat is right wing. Working out is right wing.

439
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:00,879
Speaker 1: Sheath dresses, our right wing make up is right wing.

440
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,199
Speaker 1: A lot of things that you wouldn't think have a

441
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:08,719
Speaker 1: political personality are actually political, according to the left. Now,

442
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:13,160
Speaker 1: air conditioning in France might be getting that same treatment.

443
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:17,920
Speaker 1: Marine leapenn is running on getting people that air conditioning.

444
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:21,200
Speaker 1: She says that if her Nationalist party wins, she would

445
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:25,440
Speaker 1: deploy a quote major air conditioning equipment plan around France.

446
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:29,200
Speaker 1: One French chalk show host wondered if air condition air

447
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:33,439
Speaker 1: conditioning is a far right thing, I'll take it. I

448
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:35,359
Speaker 1: don't care make it a far right thing. I came

449
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:40,160
Speaker 1: home yesterday to Florida after some travel and our air

450
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,360
Speaker 1: conditioning wasn't working, and I can as far right as

451
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,440
Speaker 1: can be. I needed my air conditioning fixed.

452
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 3: All they're saying is that the conservatives are cool ding

453
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 3: ming ming, But I'm jing so. It's so funny.

454
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 2: We lost power last night for thirty seconds, and all

455
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 2: the kids were in bed and they come to downstairs

456
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:00,960
Speaker 2: and they're like.

457
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:02,119
Speaker 3: We lost power.

458
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,360
Speaker 2: It's gonna get so hot in this house. Like the

459
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:09,000
Speaker 2: first thing they thought about was their air conditioning. But

460
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,960
Speaker 2: it's like the left wants to now you named all

461
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 2: these things that are far right anymore. You forgot masculinity, fatherhood, parenting,

462
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 2: all those.

463
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 3: Things surviving is now far right.

464
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:25,320
Speaker 2: I mean it's like tell your grandparents that fought in

465
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 2: World War two, or name any war you want that.

466
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 2: You know, air conditioning was going to be extreme by

467
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:32,600
Speaker 2: the time we got to our generation.

468
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 3: This is preposterous.

469
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 2: If it's this easy to win an election on air conditioning,

470
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,120
Speaker 2: I'm running in every city across America.

471
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that we would elect to emperor in

472
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,120
Speaker 1: Florida if you ran on air conditioning.

473
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 3: You know.

474
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 1: So the funny thing is or not not so funny.

475
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:52,440
Speaker 1: But France does have a certain number of deaths every

476
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,800
Speaker 1: few years from a heat wave. In twenty twenty three,

477
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 1: one thousand people died in France as a result of

478
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,439
Speaker 1: a heat wave. And I see people say saying, oh,

479
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 1: this happens everywhere, you know, even in America, we do

480
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:08,159
Speaker 1: have people die from heat. Sure US had seventeen hundred

481
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 1: heat related deaths in twenty twenty two. That very same year,

482
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:16,720
Speaker 1: Europe had sixty two thousand, eight hundred and sixty two

483
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 1: and if you're just for population, that's like twenty seven

484
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 1: times more heat related deaths. This is no joke. In Europe,

485
00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:28,919
Speaker 1: and in France, you know, it is particularly bad. I

486
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 1: think that air conditioning can be the unifying thing for

487
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 1: the Nationalist Party in France. I think that they could

488
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:38,240
Speaker 1: really show people that they are the sane party who

489
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:43,080
Speaker 1: wants normal things. Kyle Orton on X posted quote. If

490
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 1: you tell a population that protecting borders or wanting air

491
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 1: conditioning amid a heat wave is far right, they will

492
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,639
Speaker 1: not cease wanting those things. They will ask how it

493
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 1: is that they can get in touch with these far

494
00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 1: right chaps so they can hire them to run the country.

495
00:24:58,119 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 1: I hope that that's the case.

496
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 3: I'm a far right chap, Carol. I just.

497
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 2: When the government wants to strip you of your basic necessities,

498
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:13,879
Speaker 2: we have gone into lunatic world. I mean, the left

499
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,960
Speaker 2: has been living in most of that world as far

500
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,920
Speaker 2: as long as we've been talking. But this is it

501
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 2: does you wrote up the Babylon b It does remind

502
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 2: me of a Babylon Bee post. I mean, if they're

503
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,360
Speaker 2: so worried about global warming, wouldn't they want to cool

504
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,199
Speaker 2: people down wouldn't they want to get people into a

505
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,879
Speaker 2: cooler environment. I mean, I just I'm looking for like

506
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:36,120
Speaker 2: this is a terrible pond. I'm looking for a hot

507
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 2: take to give you, Carol. And sometimes the headlines do

508
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 2: so much of the writing themselves that it's I'm almost

509
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 2: at a loss of words.

510
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I really feel like Europeans once they get air

511
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 1: conditioning and see what it is and how good it

512
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 1: is and how prevalent it is. Because still, you know,

513
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 1: I was just in France. Actually you walk into a

514
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:56,880
Speaker 1: store and it's like hot in the store. Everything will

515
00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 1: get better with air conditioning, I assure you. So. It

516
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,639
Speaker 1: will not bring down your civilization. You will enjoy it

517
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 1: very much. Air conditioning all the way. Let's do it Europe.

518
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 2: The other thing they need that's warm over there is

519
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,200
Speaker 2: warm beer. That's the reason that I don't like going

520
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:13,879
Speaker 2: to Europe. They need to cool their beer down too.

521
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 2: So if we could get europe ac and a good

522
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 2: cold pine of beer, I might make the trips over

523
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,719
Speaker 2: there with me and my other far right chaps.

524
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 1: Things might really change. Yeah, I think your far right chaps,

525
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 1: we'll have a good time if they fix some things

526
