You know, three hundred 43 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 2: and seventy five South Koreans have been not deported just 44 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 2: as politely. If you might return to your homeland, that 45 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 2: would be delightful, thank you. 46 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: Ah. 47 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 2: And what was going on there? Odd odd story, Okay, 48 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 2: I want to hear that. The most interesting thing I've 49 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:50,239 Speaker 2: heard today. So the trial starts for the second attempt 50 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 2: to assassinate Donald Trump as the guy that was laying 51 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,919 Speaker 2: in the bushes at the golf course. Oh yeah, thank 52 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 2: god it was the Secret Service got him then, and 53 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 2: not five minutes later after he'd already put a bullet 54 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 2: through the chest of the President of the United States. 55 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:08,079 Speaker 2: Horrifying situation. Anyway, that trial starts today. The guy's representing 56 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 2: himself because he's completely fruit loops. But his demands to 57 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 2: the court were, I need strippers, I need a putting green, 58 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 2: which is an interesting combo. I don't know what he 59 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,799 Speaker 2: thinks a criminal trial is. Uh, is he taking a 60 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 2: guy's trip to Myrtle. 61 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: Beach or something? What's happening here? 62 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 2: And he challenged the president to an eighteen hole golf 63 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 2: match in which if he loses, the president gets to 64 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 2: execute him, but if he wins, he gets the president's job. 65 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,119 Speaker 4: Wow, seems reasonable. That explains the need for the putting green. 66 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 4: Obviously he wants to get his stroke in shape. The 67 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 4: stripper's still a bit of a mystery. 68 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, it seemed to be like something you just kind 69 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 2: of an ad in at the end there, and why 70 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 2: not some strippers? 71 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 1: Yeah. 72 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 2: Anyway, so that guy appears to be completely nuts. It'll 73 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 2: be quite the circus to watch that unfold, I'm sure. 74 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: Wow. 75 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 2: I'm surprised the judge is letting him defend himself because 76 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 2: usually they say, no, you're two nuts. 77 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 1: Oh really, I didn't know. 78 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 4: And then you sit there glowering at the court appointed 79 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 4: lawyer and maybe. 80 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: They will look back, and maybe they will at some 81 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: point then maybe they can bond over I don't know, 82 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,160 Speaker 1: a night at the strip club or something. Hey, captain Nutsoe, 83 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: why don't you sit down and we'll get a lawyer 84 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: in here. 85 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, could face life in prison if they determined that 86 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 2: he actually was tempting to sassinate the president, which I 87 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 2: think they probably will, although he might get some sort 88 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 2: of I'm crazy stipulation in there. 89 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. 90 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 2: I would enjoy the putting green if I was in prison, 91 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 2: but the strippers, I think I would just get horned 92 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 2: up and I'm in prison thing exactly. 93 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: I might go with a pizza. 94 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 2: Oven instead a putting green and a pizza of it 95 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 2: and the ingredients of course, right, Michael, something useful. Plus 96 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:54,359 Speaker 2: i'd be very popular on the cell block. So here's 97 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 2: the question. Since it's being threatened within days, do you 98 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 2: think Trump is going to ac actually send National Guard 99 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 2: troops to Chicago. 100 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,479 Speaker 1: So far he hasn't. Yes, so far, he has not 101 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: gone against any court orders. Right he will. 102 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 4: I suspect he will find a way using threats to 103 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 4: federal personnel and or property to be the pretext. What 104 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 4: the scenario that a number of folks have pointed out 105 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 4: is entirely possible is ice will go in there and 106 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 4: do their jobs, and they will be harassed and assaulted, 107 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,720 Speaker 4: and that will be a suitable pretext for bringing the 108 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:35,840 Speaker 4: National Guard in to protect the federal personnel. 109 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, but protests yesterday they kept him pretty peaceful, So 110 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 2: that helps the argument toward not having troops there if 111 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 2: you've got peaceful protests. Obviously, when he sent troops into 112 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,480 Speaker 2: Los Angeles, Los Angeles was completely out of control. 113 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, which is a different situation. 114 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 4: I would think that people of Chicago would be more 115 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,119 Speaker 4: concerned with the fact that their mayor has an IQ 116 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 4: of seventy one. 117 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 1: And you want to talk about a crisis. 118 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:08,720 Speaker 2: And the largest attack on Ukraine Saturday night of the 119 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 2: entire war from Russia. If you're wondering how the peace 120 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:19,159 Speaker 2: talks are going, Prutin invited Zelensky to Moscow for a 121 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:22,159 Speaker 2: one on one meeting. Zelensky said, how about you come 122 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,679 Speaker 2: to Kiev and that's where that stands? 123 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:29,919 Speaker 1: Right? Yeah, what the hell? Oh? And so who is 124 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 1: this for? Who's pretending? Why are we doing this? 125 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,600 Speaker 2: European leaders are coming to the White House today or tomorrow. 126 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,479 Speaker 1: To discuss what the next steps are going to be. 127 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,280 Speaker 2: Trump City's very unhappy with the attack from Saturday night 128 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 2: and vowed something, we'll see if anything happens. Although you know, 129 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 2: with Iran, nothing happened, nothing happened, then everything happened really fast, 130 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 2: so right, so who knows. Although maybe we're too busy 131 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 2: about to invade Venezuela as we have more and more 132 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 2: of a an armada down there off the coast. 133 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 4: Right when you know, commentators, including myself, for discussing our 134 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 4: ability to take on a two front war. I don't 135 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 4: think the fronts we were thinking about were Ukraine and Venezuela, 136 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 4: no kidding. 137 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: So how about the back and forth between jd Vance 138 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:22,119 Speaker 1: and Ran Paul over the weekend over bombing that boat? 139 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: Did you follow that? I really didn't know. I just 140 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: saw I had lines. 141 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 2: So jd Vance had a post reacting to people who 142 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:35,559 Speaker 2: are complaining about killing all those drug dealers in the boat. 143 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 2: Part of the argument, of course, is alleged drug dealers. 144 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 2: There was no trials, so we don't know exactly who 145 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 2: was in the boat, and there's a possibility that they 146 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 2: were not drug dealers. And so jd. Vance's pushback to 147 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 2: that was, I don't give an s. I think that's 148 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 2: what it was. It was an S bomb, and that 149 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 2: was the highest use of our military. And then ran Paul, 150 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 2: very unhappy out said, calling it the highest use of 151 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 2: our military to extra judiciary judicial, without a trial, execute 152 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 2: a bunch of people in a boat not knowing who 153 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 2: they are is an. 154 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: Awful thing to say. 155 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 2: Such a pretty interesting breakdown between two US senators, both Republican, 156 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 2: former senator for JD. Vanceman, right, and some of my 157 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 2: favorite conservative thinkers are highly uncomfortable with the act of 158 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 2: snuffing those fellows from above. 159 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: Right. 160 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know if saying I don't give an ass, 161 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,839 Speaker 2: I mean, performative wise, it probably gets you more votes 162 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 2: than the loses. I just wish we were a little 163 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 2: higher level of h We have full confidence that the military, 164 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 2: you know, did a legal blah blah blah, blah blah. 165 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:57,199 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, j D. I think has some pretty 166 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:04,359 Speaker 4: well formed, very how would I put this, just intellectually, 167 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 4: carefully developed principles.

But anyway, 521 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,639 Speaker 2: I go into my high schooler's room last night and 522 00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 2: did not smell pleasant. I said, what is the deal 523 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 2: in here? And he must have taken that to heart, 524 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 2: because now the entire house smells like high school boy cologne. 525 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: And I said, what did you do? 526 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 2: And he said, we used to sit at smell bed 527 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 2: So I sprayed around some of my cologne. 528 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,880 Speaker 1: I thought that would help some of your colone. 529 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 2: Oh, it smells like you're on a date with four 530 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 2: high school sophomore boys right now in my house.

I guess, I don't know. 569 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 1: Here's she was an actress back one hundred years ago. 570 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 1: That's true, skinny cute. Anyway, here's Audrey Hepburn. I thinking 571 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 1: of Catherine Hepburn. Audrey Hepburn, very cute. 572 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 4: Yes, yes, yes, anyway, nothing is impossible. The word itself 573 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 4: says I'm possible. Now if you hear something like that 574 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 4: and you think, wow, that's great, changed my wife. 575 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 1: You're just a soft head. 576 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 2: That is Audrey Hepburn is the breakfast at Tiffany's girl. Yes, correct, 577 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 2: that's the woman right there. Let's see. So I decided 578 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,959 Speaker 2: to weigh about ninety pounds. I decided to go with 579 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 2: this instead. Uh Ja Shetty pronounced his name carefully. 580 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 4: Knowledge is power and it can help you overcome any 581 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 4: fear of the unexpected. When you learn, you gain more 582 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 4: awareness through the process and you know what it falls 583 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 4: to look for as you get ready to transition to. 584 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 1: The next level. Cool. Knowledge is power. I like that. 585 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, mail Bags out to us, mail Bag and Armstrong 586 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 2: and getty dot. Instead of saying impossible, just say I'm possible. 587 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 2: You're right, if you're if that makes a difference in 588 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 2: your life. Your head is soft. Nothing is impossible. The 589 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 2: word itself says I'm possible. Okay, eat a bowling ball. 590 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 2: I'll give you every dime. 591 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 4: Of my impressive networks if you can ingest a bowling 592 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 4: ball right now, then we'll discuss again whether nothing is impossible. 593 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 4: Autrator gee little thing Johnson owoocha, all right, I got this, 594 00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 4: saw this meme. 595 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 1: One to pass it along. 596 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 2: I'm sure the March of Dimes needs a new cause. 597 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 2: It's a new ribbon. It's an orange ribbon with a 598 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 2: shock of yellow hair, and it says find a cause. 599 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 1: Trump derangement syndrome, which is good. 600 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 4: It also resets the fact that charities whether it's the 601 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 4: March of Dimes or the NAACP or Southern Poverty losson 602 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 4: or whatever. After they've satisfied what they were originally built 603 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 4: to do, they just find a new cause and morph. 604 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 1: The point is they collect money. That's why they exist. 605 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 4: Not that the March of Dimes hasn't done wonderful things, 606 00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 4: but it's kind of interesting how they've evolved. Let's see 607 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 4: Jonathan from San Diego regarding California schools in equity and education, 608 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:39,360 Speaker 4: which we were discussing last week. The school Board's really 609 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 4: onto something. If you think about it. Math is rife 610 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 4: with inequities. It's always bothered me that six is less 611 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 4: value than seven. It isn't six's fault that it will 612 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:49,239 Speaker 4: never equal seven. The answer seems clear to me. All 613 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 4: numbers should be the same. I like one because it 614 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:53,959 Speaker 4: is so sleek and easy to write for those who 615 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 4: don't know how to write cursive. From now on, only 616 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 4: his one for all numbers. That's what equity is all about. 617 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 4: Out problem solved. That's beautiful. How much time do we 618 00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 4: have I start this? 619 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 1: I sensed sarcasm, Ah, very very very well observed this 620 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 1: is Chris who will lead us. 621 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 4: Interestingly, oddly into a discussion of Portland, Oregon and why 622 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 4: the cops have been standing down there in spite of 623 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 4: the eighty some nights of violence in a row and 624 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 4: noise and law breaking. But Chris writes, good morning. We 625 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:34,640 Speaker 4: escaped California three years ago, moved to a small city 626 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 4: in the North Georgia Mountains. It's in the heart of 627 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 4: Trump Country, former Cherokee Lands. The only comment you'll get 628 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 4: wearing a mega hat here is did you get that 629 00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 4: at the Trump store? Yes, we have a Trump store. 630 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 4: In our schools. They don't teach about the genderbread person pronouns, 631 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 4: or any woke garbage. They have a moment of silence 632 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 4: for reflection and prayer, then recite the Pledge of Allegiance 633 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 4: every morning. You aren't asked to write land statements. You 634 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 4: taught that America is the greatest country on Earth, et cetera. 635 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 4: Our Walmart does not have anything locked up, no scales 636 00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 4: on self checkout, and they don't bother checking the receipts, 637 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 4: et cetera. These places still exist in America. The fight 638 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 4: now is to keep the lefties from bringing what they're 639 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:14,240 Speaker 4: running from here. 640 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 1: You know that is that is the fight. 641 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 4: Yes, policy matters now under the topic of Oregon. The POS. 642 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 4: That's an unfortunate acronym there POS. Portland DA won't prosecute 643 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 4: any arrest the Portland Police make It's been doing that 644 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 4: for years, effectively neutering local law enforcement. 645 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 1: Okay, Portland PD and riots. This is Justin. I've been 646 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 1: a listener since twenty eighteen. Thanks Justin. 647 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 4: From what I've been hearing, the Portland PD wants so 648 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 4: badly to go in and help diffuse the insanity and 649 00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 4: chaos in the city neighborhoods. 650 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:50,560 Speaker 1: The mayor and the city council just won't won't let them, 651 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 1: and if they do, then not only get. 652 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 4: Fired, but the Portland city brass is threatened to take 653 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 4: away their pension benefits. If I were a Portland cop, 654 00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 4: I'd be looking for employment opportunities like so many cops 655 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:02,800 Speaker 4: in other places. 656 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 1: Got this. I can't imagine doing your job as a cop. 657 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 1: If you arrest bad guys and then they're never prosecuted 658 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: and they're let out right away, and then you see 659 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 1: them committing other crimes, it would be so disheartening. Why 660 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:15,399 Speaker 1: would you. 661 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 2: Literally risk your neck going Some of the people are dangerous. 662 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:20,239 Speaker 2: I think in a lot of cases. You stop right 663 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 2: right e fit you think, let's see, this is from Tea. 664 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,440 Speaker 4: I live in Portland. What's even more infuriating than the 665 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 4: police just letting the riots continue is that this is 666 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 4: in a very nice, expensive area of town. About ten 667 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,319 Speaker 4: years or so ago, the city decided to develop an 668 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:37,440 Speaker 4: undeveloped portion of land along the river. The change zoning 669 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:40,960 Speaker 4: laws built it put up high rises with beautiful, multimillion 670 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 4: dollar condos. 671 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 1: There were views of the river. 672 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,120 Speaker 4: Many restaurants open on the main floors of these buildings. 673 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 4: It was meant to be a walking neighborhood area. I've 674 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,480 Speaker 4: actually spent time there. There are paths along the river. 675 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:51,399 Speaker 4: You could take a short half mile walk into town 676 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 4: for more restaurants. 677 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:52,760 Speaker 1: Blah blah. 678 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:54,760 Speaker 4: Now, after all this money has been poured into the neighborhood, 679 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 4: it's become a hellhole because they will not control the 680 00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 4: junkies that camp out along the river steps away from 681 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,319 Speaker 4: these condos, the ice buildings just blocks away from some 682 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 4: of these buildings. Quite a few of the restaurants have 683 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,359 Speaker 4: had to close. Nobody can sell their condos if they 684 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:10,920 Speaker 4: want to leave there, you go. 685 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:12,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. 686 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:16,879 Speaker 4: And then here's Jeff who's been traveling to and working 687 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:20,120 Speaker 4: in Portland for decades, talks about when I first visited 688 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 4: it blew me away. Oh, it was one of my 689 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 4: favorite places on Earth. And it's just awful. And he's 690 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:31,319 Speaker 4: interviewed through his work Portland cops, many retired because of 691 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:35,320 Speaker 4: frustration over work, et cetera. Employers, business owners, downtown workers, 692 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:38,399 Speaker 4: even a few homeless folks. It's so interesting and there's 693 00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 4: more to this, and I wish we could get to it. 694 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:44,840 Speaker 4: But you would think those constituencies would be in charge 695 00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 4: of city governments, but in left these cities it's not. 696 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:53,719 Speaker 4: It's the loudest, angriest in Portland, most violent, young completely 697 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 4: unmoored from reality dreamers and Antifa types that drive governance. 698 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:00,759 Speaker 1: You should find the episode to the show where I 699 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 1: described what the woman did on the street in front 700 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,239 Speaker 1: of me and my son in Portland that was disgusting, 701 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 1: like a horse. 702 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 6: Armstrong and Getty
