What do we have, Crystal, 16 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:39,239 Speaker 3: indeed we do. 17 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:41,839 Speaker 2: In fact, we're a little late getting started here because 18 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 2: a bombshell just dropped from Vanity Fair with this interview 19 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 2: with Susie Wiles. She's in all kinds of stuff. Donald 20 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 2: Trump has the personality of an alcoholic Jadevance, the conspiracy 21 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 2: theorist Elon Musk is on drugs, the put the cases 22 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 2: against his enemies are political, they are retribution. So we 23 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 2: just spend some time digesting that and inserting into the show. 24 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:04,480 Speaker 2: So we will get to that in the latter part 25 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 2: of the show. A lot of the other stuff to 26 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 2: get to as well, though we're horrific details the murder 27 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 2: of Rob Reiner. His son has been arrested, possibly that 28 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,039 Speaker 2: he will be charged today. We also have Trump reacting 29 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 2: to that in one of the ugliest ways you could 30 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 2: possibly imagine, and actually facing some Maga backlash. We've got 31 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,040 Speaker 2: some I guess you can't call it exclusive, but we've 32 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:27,279 Speaker 2: got some audio from Emily's radio show where Trump voters, 33 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 2: three time Trump voters, were calling in and saying they 34 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 2: were disgusted by what he had to say about Rob Reiner. 35 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 2: So kind of an interesting one that seems to have 36 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 2: broken through to a lot of people, even his own voters. 37 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:41,320 Speaker 2: We also have some new details about the shooter, the 38 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 2: killer at Brown University, although he remains on the loose. 39 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 2: We have some new photos coming out, also some new 40 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 2: questions about how the FBI is handling that. We got 41 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 2: some new reaction from Republicans just going full Islamophobia in 42 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 2: the wake of that Bondai beach attack. We will tell 43 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 2: you what they said and what they are up to. 44 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 2: Their Fox News is launching their own war on Christmas 45 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 2: in defense of tech oligarchs. You got to see that 46 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 2: one to believe it. We are supposed to have a 47 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,359 Speaker 2: Republican healthcare vote tomorrow, but that appears to be kind 48 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 2: of falling apart, and isn't a whole lot there to 49 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 2: start with, And of course premiums are going to spike 50 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 2: for millions of people at the end of the year. 51 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,959 Speaker 2: Cash Mattel is doing an interview while there's a mass 52 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 2: shooter on the loose talking about his girlfriend, So that's 53 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 2: an interesting choice. We're going to talk about that aforementioned 54 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 2: Susie Wiles's interview and want to Bead Rojas is going 55 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 2: to join us to break down the presidential election in Chile. 56 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 2: They just elected a far right leader, kind of a 57 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 2: backlash against the left. There a lot that's very interesting 58 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 2: to get into there, and no one better to do 59 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 2: it than one. 60 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right. 61 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 3: Ryan really wanted to get into it yesterday, but I 62 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 3: had to shut him down. I was like, dude, the 63 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 3: show is already too long, all right, So this is 64 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 3: our consolation prize, Crystal work the sort of. 65 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 4: Thing he'd be dying to get in and was so. 66 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 3: Can I just fit it in here?

If you're listening 81 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 3: to this on a podcast, please just send an episode 82 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 3: to a friend or rates five stars. It really helps 83 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 3: people find the show. But let's go ahead and start 84 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 3: with Rob Reiner. Not only the case, but Trump's comments 85 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 3: on it, which for some reason that remain very mysterious 86 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 3: to me, has broken through the cultural zeitgeist in a 87 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 3: way that I never would have expected, and actually does 88 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 3: seem to be a fracture point for a lot of people, 89 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 3: even who are very pro MAGA, which is fascinating to 90 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 3: me considering all the things Trump has said in his career, Crystal. 91 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 3: But this does seem to be much of a bigger 92 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 3: event than I ever would have anticipated. 93 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, and we can talk about why that 94 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 2: might be. But just want to start by updating on 95 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 2: the case. And I just want to say off the top, 96 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 2: since I wasn't on the show yesterday, I did know 97 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 2: Rob Ryner a little bit. I mean I wouldn't call 98 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 2: him like a close friend or anything, but you know, 99 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 2: especially back when I was at MSNBC, I would see 100 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 2: him there, was friendly with him, had lunch with them 101 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 2: one time. The thing I remember most from the lunch 102 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 2: with him is, first of all, I mean, he's this 103 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 2: huge deal, you know, and I'm in comparatively like nothing 104 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 2: in terms of my sort of like public persona and awareness, 105 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,799 Speaker 2: and he was just so friendly and so so familiar 106 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 2: in like a really charming way. And I told you 107 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 2: this story, saga. It's kind of just a small thing 108 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 2: that I remembered, you know, after I was clearly done. 109 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 4: He was like, that looks really good. Can I try it? 110 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 2: And just started like, you know, like we were old friends, 111 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 2: just really casual, really friendly. And that's what you hear 112 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,359 Speaker 2: from everybody who knew him, is he was just, you know, 113 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 2: however he felt about his politics, he was just a 114 00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 2: really genuinely nice person. And so, you know, it was 115 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,719 Speaker 2: quite a shock to the system to see someone brutally 116 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 2: murdered like this, him and his wife, and now that 117 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 2: it appears very much like his own son, whose long 118 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 2: struggled with drug addiction and mental illness, is the who 119 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 2: had been living with them off and on was the 120 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 2: one that took their lives. So let's go ahead and 121 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,799 Speaker 2: take a listen to the Los Angeles Police Department chief 122 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,039 Speaker 2: talking about the latest in the investigation. 123 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 5: Yesterday, at twelfth, December fourteenth, about three point forty in 124 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 5: the afternoon, LAPD responded to a residence the residents of 125 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:38,239 Speaker 5: Rob and Michelle Reiner, located in West Los Angeles Division. 126 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 5: At that location, they found two deceased adults, a male 127 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 5: and a female. Through the night, working with the Coroner's office, 128 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 5: they were able to identify them definitively as Rob and 129 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 5: Michelle Reiner. We have our Robbery Homicide Division handling the investigation. 130 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,840 Speaker 5: They worked throughout the night on this case and were 131 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 5: able to take into custody Nick Ryner, a suspect in 132 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 5: this case. He was subsequently booked for murder and is 133 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 5: being held on four million dollar bail. Pretty much that's 134 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 5: what I can share at this point. But again, a 135 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 5: very very tragic incident. 136 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:21,239 Speaker 2: And we're getting some more details from the LA Press 137 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 2: and also from GMC, which is also I guess LA 138 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 2: Press about what happened in the days and hours leading 139 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 2: up to this murder. Let's go and put a two 140 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 2: up on the screen. So a number of sources, including 141 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 2: NBC News also has this at this point. So Rob 142 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:39,159 Speaker 2: and his wife Michelle, and Nick had all attended Conan 143 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 2: O'Brien's holiday party. Apparently there are some people who are saying, 144 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 2: you know, Nick was acting really strangely, that he was 145 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 2: making people very uncomfortable. And then you've got a lot 146 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,160 Speaker 2: of people say that there was some sort of an 147 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:54,840 Speaker 2: ugly shouting fight between Rob and his son Nick at 148 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 2: that party. And this was just a day before they 149 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 2: would ultimately be found murdered at their homes. Let's put 150 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 2: a three up on the screen as well. So Nick 151 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 2: apparently went missing for hours after the bodies of Rob 152 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 2: and Michelle had been discovered. There's another report that when 153 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 2: they went into his hotel room where he had been 154 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 2: staying after you know, he allegedly murdered Rob and Michelle, 155 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 2: that there was blood all over the hotel room. I'm 156 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 2: sure you know, obviously the police will be sweeping that 157 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 2: for any sort of forensic evidence. There's also a lot 158 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 2: that's being written right now, Sager about just the tumultuous 159 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 2: relationship and life of Nick. He apparently struggled with drug 160 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 2: addiction from the time he was in his early teens, 161 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 2: like fourteen years old. Was the first time that he 162 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,679 Speaker 2: was in rehab. He did some eighteen different stints in rehab, 163 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 2: and it ultimately was Rob Reiner's daughter, romy who discovered 164 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 2: their bodies and also apparently told the police, my brother 165 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 2: needs to be a suspect. He is dangerous. So, I mean, 166 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 2: it's just beyond horrifying. You cannot imagine, you know, your 167 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 2: own child taking your life like that. And the other 168 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 2: thing I've been thinking about soccer. This is the third person, 169 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 2: the third man that I've known, who has either been 170 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 2: allegedly murdered or attempted to be murdered by their you know, 171 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 2: mentally ill, drug addicted child. And I'm sitting with that 172 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 2: of like, what just how is this? How is this 173 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 2: something that me myself personally in my life, I'm aware 174 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 2: of this happening, Like no people personally that this happened too. 175 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 4: Three times. 176 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 2: We have major major issues in this country with addiction, 177 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 2: with mental health, with you know, getting people to help 178 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,319 Speaker 2: that they need, and obviously resources were not an issue 179 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 2: in this instance. But I don't know what to say 180 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 2: other than how shocking and how utterly horrifying the whole 181 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 2: story is. 182 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know the situation obviously, but from just 183 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 3: what we read about the multiple stints and rehab and 184 00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 3: I mean, the thing is about Rob, what you could 185 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 3: also see is it's a pure love for his son 186 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 3: and his attempts to you know, make movies with him 187 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 3: and to elevate his own story and how he was 188 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 3: trying to push his son in a good direction. And ultimately, 189 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 3: I mean, even you know, in the reporting that's come out, 190 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 3: he brought him to Conan O'Brien's holiday party, where this argument, 191 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 3: you know, apparently came out because and he even reached out, 192 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 3: he said, I need to bring my son. 193 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 1: I'm worried about him. 194 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 3: You know, I need to keep an eye on him 195 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,199 Speaker 3: whenever I'm going out in public. So at the very least, 196 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,079 Speaker 3: like you know, to the end, was always concerned about 197 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 3: the well being of his own son. But it is shocking. 198 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,959 Speaker 3: I mean, like what you're saying patricide itself. I mean, 199 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 3: there was some somebody alerted me to this, and I 200 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 3: remember reading it once in a book. I was considered, 201 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 3: you know, if you go back in time, one of 202 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 3: the worst crimes that a person can commit. The Romans 203 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 3: actually considered it like a special circumstance of crime which 204 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 3: carried its very own punishment. 205 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 1: It was like violating the very natural. 206 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 3: Laws of the world of gods and of the way 207 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 3: that they looked at it. And I think that's why 208 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 3: it just it's not just shocking the conscience, but it 209 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,679 Speaker 3: also just begs the quot how does something like this happen? 210 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 3: And what you're talking about there with drug addiction, you know, 211 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 3: we can talk. I don't even want to make macro 212 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 3: points here about rehab or anything like that mental illness, 213 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 3: because I don't think it's a time. I think, you know, 214 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 3: even yesterday I was still kind of in shock. But 215 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,199 Speaker 3: as you sit, you know, over the next twenty four hours, 216 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 3: and I was watching clips of Rob and talking about 217 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 3: his wife and how he changed the ending of When 218 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 3: Harry met Sally because he started to believe in love again. 219 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 3: And you're like, wow, And that's the thing too, You're 220 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 3: talking about Rob's politics. I mean, who cares about Rob's politics? 221 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 3: The point is is that for people like that, they 222 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 3: create art which is so deeply meaningful to so many 223 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 3: different people in the world. And I think that's what 224 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 3: hurt a lot of people about Donald Trump's response is 225 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 3: because guys, his politics alone, Yes, he was famously deeply political, Russiagate, 226 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 3: all of that. South Park famously did that episode about 227 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 3: him and smoking, and that's fine. I mean, we could 228 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 3: all laugh at that injest as part of like a 229 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,319 Speaker 3: more fulsome picture of who he was. But when you 230 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 3: look at that run of directing of the art that 231 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 3: he put out into the world, like how that touches you? 232 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 3: And I feel this way about my favorite directors. I'm 233 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 3: sure all of them disagree with me profoundly politically, but 234 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:10,319 Speaker 3: that doesn't make my appreciation for Paul Thomas Anderson or 235 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,559 Speaker 3: any of these other people who I hold in such 236 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 3: high esteem, any lesson I would be genuinely devastated if 237 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 3: any of them died in the same way. 238 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 1: So there's a human level. 239 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 3: There's the way that he created something that so many 240 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:22,959 Speaker 3: millions and tens and hundreds of millions of people could 241 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 3: connect to became like seminal moments and parts of their 242 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 3: childhood that ultimately, you know, when people were grieving or 243 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,959 Speaker 3: were remembering him from across the political spectrum in general, 244 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,680 Speaker 3: most people I would say, were like, oh my gosh, 245 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 3: not only just the crime so horrific, but also just 246 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 3: remembering their own connection as you had there personally. And 247 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,559 Speaker 3: then you had Trump's response, which again is quite in 248 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 3: character for Trump, and it's basically how he's reacted many 249 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:53,839 Speaker 3: many times over the years. For some reason, this one 250 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 3: just it seemed to break through the zeitgeist in a 251 00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 3: way that again I found very unexpected. Because Trump's been 252 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 3: on the stage now for ten years. It's not a 253 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 3: surprise if you asked me how he would have reacted. 254 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 3: This is pretty much what I would have expected, maybe 255 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 3: not as explicit, you know, immediate in terms of his reaction, 256 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 3: But like, did you really think that, you know, he 257 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 3: would be circumspect and respectful necessarily in this moment. And 258 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 3: yet even though he met his own expectations of what 259 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 3: many people found, this seemed to be a bridge too far, 260 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 3: at least for many of his own supporters, which again 261 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 3: I find very interesting. 262 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 2: It is for sure, let's go ahead and put Trump's 263 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 2: truth up on the screen and can read what he wrote. 264 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,960 Speaker 2: And then he doubled down on that yesterday, you know, 265 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 2: on Cameron play that for you as well. 266 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 4: But here's what he wrote. 267 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 2: Initially, he says, a very sad thing happened last night 268 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 2: in Hollywood. Rob Reiner, a tortured and struggling but once 269 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 2: a very talented movie director and comedy star, has passed 270 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 2: away together with his wife Michelle, reportedly due to the 271 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 2: anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding and incurable 272 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 2: affliction with a mind crippling disease known as Trump arrangement syndrome, 273 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 2: sometimes referred to as TDS. He was known to have 274 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 2: driven people crazy by his raging obsession with President Donald J. Trump, 275 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 2: with his obvious paranoia reaching new heights as the Trump 276 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 2: administration surpassed all goals and expectations of greatness, and with 277 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 2: the Golden Age of America uponnus perhaps like never before. 278 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 2: May Rob and Michelle rest in peace. So attributing his 279 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 2: death saying he died because he had Trump derangement syndrome. 280 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 2: I mean, you want to talk about something that is deranged, 281 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 2: like that is utterly deranged. He got asked about it 282 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 2: yesterday and you know all he had to say is 283 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 2: basically like, yeah, I didn't like the guy. 284 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 4: Let's go ahead and take a listen. 285 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:46,200 Speaker 2: A number of Republicans have denounced your statement on True's 286 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 2: social after the murder of Rob Reiner. 287 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 4: Do you stand by that post? 288 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 6: Well, I wasn't a fan of his at all. He 289 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 6: was a deranged person as far as Trump is concerned. 290 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 6: He said he liked it, knew it was false. In fact, 291 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 6: it is the exact opposite that I was a friend 292 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 6: of Russia, controlled by Russia. You know, it was the 293 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 6: Russia hoox. He was one of the people behind it. 294 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 6: I think he heard himself in career wise, he became 295 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 6: like a deranged person Trump derangement syndrome. So I was 296 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 6: not a fan of Rob Reiner at all in any way, 297 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 6: shape or form. I thought he was very bad for 298 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 6: our country. 299 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 2: So, you know, not walking back at all saying yeah, 300 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 2: I you know, I didn't like him. He had Trump 301 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 2: arrangement syndrome, not a fan, and I think soccer. A 302 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 2: few things happened here in terms of the backlash to 303 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 2: Trump's comments. Number one, you just had had a bunch 304 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 2: of Republicans come out and say, like, look, when a 305 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 2: liberal dies, we're not out here celebrating, like Jack Desobak 306 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 2: said that, for example, and then instantly Trump comes out 307 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 2: with this just utterly disgusting comment. And then second of all, 308 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 2: I mean, this is someone that truly, through the breadth 309 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 2: of his catalog, has just had a direct impact on 310 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 2: so many people's lives. And so between the two of 311 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 2: those things, and also since there is just zero really 312 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 2: political valance to this, it's just a family tragedy. Yeah, 313 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 2: people found it disgusting. You know, people have these you know, 314 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 2: they have parasocial relationships not just with you know, modern 315 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 2: social media influencers, but with the actors and directors and 316 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 2: artists that they've known throughout their lives. Some of these fels, 317 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 2: I mean, think about like the Princess Bride, like this 318 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 2: is you know, American canon effectively, and so for Trump 319 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 2: to come out with this utterly insane and really callous take, 320 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 2: I don't know, it just apparently really disturbed people and 321 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 2: really landed the wrong way with them. 322 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: You and I follow politics day in and day out. 323 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 3: I could probably think of ten other things that Trump 324 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 3: has said that are equally worse and or like more consequential. 325 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 3: But what breaks through is always just what breaks through, 326 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 3: and I guess it's just my job to try and 327 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 3: kind of understand exactly why, and this just seemed to 328 00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 3: be one of them in one here. So Emily has 329 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 3: been hosting her show over on Serious XM with Megan 330 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 3: Kelly's operation, and obviously she takes a bunch of calls, 331 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 3: and many of these calls, as you said, are multiple 332 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 3: time Trump voters, who are disgusted by that this does 333 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 3: not happen very often. We're people proactively, even people who 334 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 3: are maga who cringe very often will just privately be like, oh, yeah, 335 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 3: that was bad, but you know he did this, this 336 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 3: and this, and so I'm not going to express anything 337 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 3: about it. To proactively, you know, go out of your 338 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 3: way to call into a station to openly disagree to 339 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 3: say how terrible of a response. 340 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 1: I mean, that just doesn't happen all that often. 341 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 3: And she was kind enough to share some of the 342 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 3: audio here with us, So let's take a listen. 343 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 7: Guys, Jill in Indiana, you're on the Megan Kelly Wrap 344 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 7: Up Show. What's on your mind this afternoon? 345 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 8: Hi, just sort of glomming on here. But it matters 346 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 8: to me what Donald Trump said, and deeply disappointed if 347 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:04,639 Speaker 8: we value human life as Christians and Americans, and but 348 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:10,360 Speaker 8: there's just it's indefensible to sort of gloat like right 349 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 8: after someone dies like that, you know, just for having 350 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:14,680 Speaker 8: a difference of opinion. 351 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 9: I'm very disappointed in President Trump. I voted for him 352 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:21,919 Speaker 9: three times. I still love him as my president. But 353 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 9: it was wrong what he did. He should have just 354 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 9: kept his mouth shut after the first paragraph. I don't 355 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,480 Speaker 9: know why he had to bring that up. It was 356 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:40,160 Speaker 9: a tragedy. And I didn't like Rob Reiner as a person. 357 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:45,960 Speaker 9: I'm a politics he was he was really really sometimes 358 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:51,400 Speaker 9: very very what he was saying about the right and 359 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 9: particularly about Trump too. Of course, however, I mean, it 360 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 9: really hurts me to the core what happened to him, 361 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 9: and I think as a human being anyone has to 362 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 9: be just sad about what happened and not bring politics 363 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 9: into it. And Trump just doesn't know when to stop. 364 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 10: Well, I would just like to say that we have 365 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 10: a god fearing president and he talks about the power 366 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 10: of prayer and praying for victims and on and on 367 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 10: and on. So let's act like that, President Trump, I 368 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 10: voted for you. This is the most sacred season of 369 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 10: the year. Turn the other cheek like Christ would. 370 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,159 Speaker 11: I will tell you that I've been a Republican my 371 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 11: entire life. I voted for Trump twice. I don't consider 372 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 11: myself a maga Republican, but I do consider myself a conservative. 373 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:52,479 Speaker 11: And I think this comment that he made this post 374 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 11: reminds me a little bit of when Walter Cronkite made 375 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 11: an announcement talking about the Vietnam War to the American 376 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,880 Speaker 11: People's saying, if we you know, Linda Johnson said, if 377 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,720 Speaker 11: I've lost Walter, I've lost the country. I really think 378 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 11: that Trump's comment has just officially put that nail in 379 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 11: the coffin. 380 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 7: I just got to say, I mean, we're we're not 381 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 7: conducting a scientific poll here on the Megan Kelly wrap 382 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 7: Up Show, but the callers today. 383 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: Our phone lines have genuinely not lit up like this before. 384 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm amazed by that. I mean, you have multiple 385 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 3: time Trump voter. I mean, of course there's always the 386 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 3: like I still like them as president. But again, I mean, 387 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,919 Speaker 3: to call in is kind of shocking. I saw an 388 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 3: interesting take from Sean Trendy over at Real Clear Politics 389 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 3: Curious for yours is One is that you know, it's 390 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 3: potentially just that this because of the love and circumstance 391 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:46,280 Speaker 3: around Rhiner. Two though, is Trump is a lame duck 392 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 3: now and so because of that, you know, because it 393 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,439 Speaker 3: can't run for reelection, and now increasingly is you know, 394 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 3: just bumbling around in the White House and concern more 395 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 3: about the architectural projects or I don't know if you 396 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 3: heard the latest one building in arcta triumph here in 397 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 3: one Washington near the Arlington Cemittory, like this is what 398 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,879 Speaker 3: consumes the vast majority of his mind share, well occasionally 399 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,239 Speaker 3: dipping in and out to tweet about Rob Reiner that 400 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 3: has given not a permission structure, But people can just 401 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,120 Speaker 3: be a little bit more honest about what they think. Maybe, 402 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 3: and it's that dynamic. I don't really know what it is. 403 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 3: The Biden element as well, kind of aging and you know, 404 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 3: in front of all of our eyes, the unpopularity. But 405 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 3: something has changed, at least in my opinion around this. Again, 406 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,439 Speaker 3: I have never seen anything like this. I really have, 407 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 3: not from a public way where Fox News personalities and 408 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 3: others are like wow, like this is so horrific and 409 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 3: disgusting to the normal. I mean, more importantly the callers there. 410 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:49,240 Speaker 3: That's what matters is that this came through in a way, 411 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 3: and I do think it has a very political valance 412 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:53,439 Speaker 3: to it, even though I don't want to make Reiner's 413 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,919 Speaker 3: death in any way political. I'm talking here specifically about 414 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 3: the way that Donald Trump reacted. 415 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:00,440 Speaker 4: To it completely. 416 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,200 Speaker 2: And yeah, I mean I listened to all those calls 417 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 2: in that particular you know section of Emily shows. There 418 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 2: was one who said, look, I don't see anything wrong 419 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:11,919 Speaker 2: with it. All of the other ones, yeah, were this 420 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:15,120 Speaker 2: is disgusting. I'm really disappointed. I'm a three time Trump orter. 421 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's what it was. And Emily told 422 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 2: us she flagged for us. She's like, guys, I have 423 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 2: not had our phone lines this lit up over anything. Ever, 424 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:26,919 Speaker 2: Like it really seems to have touched a nerve, and 425 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 2: of course she said, and this is true, not a 426 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,199 Speaker 2: scientific survey, but you do see on the right in 427 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 2: addition to you know, that backlash from the base. Yeah, 428 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 2: I noted Jesse Waters, who is very incendiary person, very 429 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 2: loyal to the president, et cetera. He had actor James 430 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:47,400 Speaker 2: Woods on his show yesterday, Conservative who said, I left 431 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 2: Rob rob rescued my career. Like people would ask me, 432 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 2: how can you be friends with this person who's so 433 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 2: different from you. He's like, listen, those are just political differences. 434 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 2: Like I'm thinking about what this man meant to me 435 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 2: in my life. Laura Ingram posted an interview that she 436 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 2: had done with Rob Rydner where she said, you know, 437 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 2: I ran into him and we had a very amicable, 438 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:11,240 Speaker 2: you know, friendly exchange where we don't agree on things, 439 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 2: but it was a fine conversation, and he immediately agreed 440 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,639 Speaker 2: to come in studio and sit down with me and 441 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 2: do an interview. So I found that noteworthy too, that 442 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 2: those Fox News personalities were approaching things in that manner. 443 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,360 Speaker 2: And you know, I think there's something to what you're 444 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,040 Speaker 2: saying here. So I'm gonna put a ten up on 445 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 2: the screen. There's some polling that came out from NBC News, 446 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 2: where Trump's strong approval with his base has fallen. Oh sorry, 447 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 2: this is a saddle throw to it in just a second. 448 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 2: And even though there's still overwhelming support for him among Republicans, 449 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,199 Speaker 2: you have a little bit of erosion, and then you 450 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 2: specifically have erosion between you know, the story of Trump 451 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,159 Speaker 2: and his superpower has always been he may not have 452 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 2: majority support, but man, his people are ride or die 453 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,120 Speaker 2: and they freaking love the guy that has really eroded. 454 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 2: So when you couple together all these factors, you've got 455 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 2: number one, you just had the Charlie Kirk assassination and 456 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:08,679 Speaker 2: Republicans who hated the way. You know, people on the 457 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 2: left who were critical of Charlie right after he was dead, 458 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 2: they found that horrible. I mean hundreds of people got 459 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,919 Speaker 2: fired for comments they made about Charlie Kirk, even comments 460 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 2: that weren't like celebrating his death, but were just saying, hey, 461 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 2: here's what he said in life, and I don't like 462 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 2: the legacy that he stood for. And so you just 463 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 2: had that whole moment. On the right, you had a 464 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:27,680 Speaker 2: number of people in camput A nine. This is Jack 465 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 2: Pisobik up on the screen a number of right wing 466 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 2: influencers who before Trump comes down, is saying, see how 467 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 2: much Morley's have morally superior we are. You won't see 468 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 2: people on the right celebrating the horrific murder of Rob 469 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 2: Ryer and his wife. Compare that to the left reaction 470 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 2: to Charlie Kirk's murder. And of course after that Trump 471 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 2: comes in and says, this thing. Jack is still coping 472 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 2: over this, but whatever. So you have that dynamic. You 473 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 2: have Rob Reiner being this just well known figure that 474 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:56,439 Speaker 2: had all of this sort of cultural cultural relevance to 475 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 2: people in their own lives and really meant something to them. 476 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 2: And then you have Trump, lame duck duck people already 477 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 2: dissatisfied with a lot of things in his administration. One 478 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 2: of the callers on Emily's show said, you know, it's 479 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 2: not like things are going that well, and then for 480 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 2: him to say this, you know, it's just like horrible. 481 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 2: So let's go ahead and take a listen to a ten. 482 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 2: This is Harry Enton breaking down some of that polling. 483 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 1: Strongly approve of Donald Trump. 484 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 3: Okay, this is twenty twenty four Trump voters in March 485 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:26,879 Speaker 3: it was sixty six percent. 486 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 1: Look at where we are now. 487 00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 8: It's just fifty percent of twenty twenty four Trump voters 488 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:32,880 Speaker 8: strongly approve of them. 489 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 1: Look, Trump voters still. 490 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 12: Like Donald Trump, but they don't love him as much, 491 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 12: and that means there's a permission structure to actually. 492 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:41,680 Speaker 1: Go against them. 493 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 3: And that is exactly what you saw in Indiana and Soccer. 494 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 2: The other thing that poll showed is that, you know, 495 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 2: they ask people Republicans, do you identify more as a 496 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 2: maga Republican or more as a traditional Republican. Throughout the 497 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,919 Speaker 2: Trump era, the consistent trend has been you have that 498 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 2: more Republicans who identify as maga Republicans. Those numbers also 499 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:07,840 Speaker 2: shifted dramatically where I'm not sure if it was quite 500 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,679 Speaker 2: a majority yet, but it was basically fifty to fifty 501 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 2: between people in the Republican Party who said I'm a 502 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:16,639 Speaker 2: Maga Republican and who said I'm a traditional Republican. And 503 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 2: that in and of itself is a huge political shift 504 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:21,160 Speaker 2: in people's political identities. 505 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think, I mean, I've hammered that home, haven't 506 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 3: I talking just about I'm like, yeah, you may lose maga, 507 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 3: but that's not who voted for you in the election. 508 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 1: That's not how you win a popular vote. 509 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 3: I do think to that straight comment about things not 510 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 3: going so well, it kind of says everything. You know, 511 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:42,959 Speaker 3: people are very understated in the way. Nobody necessarily has 512 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 3: a totally coherent political ideology. It's very rare for people 513 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 3: to think deeply about politics. They generally just observe external conditions, 514 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 3: either through media their own life, kind of fuse those 515 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 3: together and that's how they just feel in the moment, right, 516 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,640 Speaker 3: And that's how people can have so many contradictory beliefs. 517 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 3: But I have to believe that the material way that 518 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 3: things are going in combination with Ryner, I mean, let's 519 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 3: also think back to a core case that Maga made 520 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty four. A core belief was I could 521 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 3: sure you some mean tweets right now, and the thesis 522 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 3: behind that was that these Rhiner esque comments are fine 523 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 3: as long as other things in the country and my 524 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 3: own life are going fine. Now, when you have it 525 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:32,159 Speaker 3: when things are not fine, that's when you know, you 526 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 3: start to notice a whole lot of different things, right, 527 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:38,439 Speaker 3: And I think that's what it ultimately comes down to. So, 528 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 3: for example, part of the reasons that Biden's gaffes or 529 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:45,679 Speaker 3: his age or any of that hit home so hard 530 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 3: for people was that things were not going well under 531 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 3: his administration, like we've had ailing and old President's potentially 532 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 3: even going senile right in the past. But as long 533 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:57,679 Speaker 3: as you feel like things are going fine, you're like, yeah, whatever, right, 534 00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 3: you know, a lot of people. People will can overlook anything. 535 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:03,199 Speaker 3: People can overlook Bill Clinton in a sixty percent approval 536 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 3: rating whenever he left office, despite all the Lewinsky bullshit. Yeah, 537 00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 3: the s and P five hundred was high. So the 538 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 3: rich people were happy, and most people they're you know, 539 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 3: average income and all that had been going up for 540 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 3: over eight years, and they say, yeah, whatever, Okay, Yeah 541 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 3: he lied about his affair with Monald Lewinsky, so be it. 542 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 1: That doesn't actually affect my life all that time. 543 00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:25,879 Speaker 3: But and this is the reverse, is that when you 544 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:30,119 Speaker 3: have that dominating your life, politics and you feel as 545 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,639 Speaker 3: if it's not just a distraction, but it's one that 546 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 3: I mean, look, no one has ever made the case 547 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,359 Speaker 3: that Donald Trump is a man of a true moral 548 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 3: character or in any way not a narcissist. But there's 549 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 3: something where, at the end of the day, one of 550 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:45,679 Speaker 3: the core things about politics. People have always pointed to, 551 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:49,439 Speaker 3: is that metric about cares about people like me? And 552 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 3: it's pretty obvious, like Trump has never really cared about 553 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 3: people like you. But you know a lot of people 554 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,879 Speaker 3: can think about that or rationalize that if they want to. 555 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 3: In this moment, it becomes so obvious where ninety nine 556 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 3: point nine percent of the human population is like, oh 557 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 3: my god, like what a horrific just what a tragedy, right, 558 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,440 Speaker 3: I mean, that's what most people would think, That's how 559 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 3: most people would react. Then you combine that with you know, 560 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:14,160 Speaker 3: the effect that this person's art has had on your life, 561 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 3: inspirational or you know, I mean, look, it's sappy and 562 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 3: all that, but like when Harryman said, like these are 563 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 3: iconic movies, He's like, you know, you walk around New 564 00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 3: York or whatever, and you're like, that's what you think. 565 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 1: Maybe that's cringe, but that's what I did. 566 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,679 Speaker 3: That was my only connection to the city prior to 567 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:30,879 Speaker 3: being you know, prior to being there, and so that 568 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,359 Speaker 3: was important. And so you have all those like little 569 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 3: moments and then you see something like this or you're 570 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:36,640 Speaker 3: just like, who would do this? 571 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:37,919 Speaker 1: Who would do this? 572 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 3: On top of Venezuela Israel, Epstein, and then the economy, 573 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 3: the single and the most important one. 574 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't know. It broke the up and 575 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 1: the ballroom. 576 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 4: I mean, that's all the things for the ball We 577 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 4: were true, You're right. 578 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 2: We were surprised really broke through to people because it 579 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 2: was such a symbol of like, this is the shit 580 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 2: you're focused on. You're building out your multi hundred one 581 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 2: hundred million dollar ballroom and that's what you're paying attention 582 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 2: to while I can't afford groceries and we're headed into Christmas, 583 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 2: Like what is happening with this? But you know, I 584 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 2: mean I think with Ryan or two, like Americans love 585 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 2: their celebrities. That's a good, big part of the reason 586 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 2: why Trump is in the White House is because we do. 587 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 4: We love our. 588 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 2: Celebrities, and it's something I am in a sense, I'm 589 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 2: a little bit. So I could have seen Trump going 590 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 2: in another direction because Trump does understand that relationship that 591 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,239 Speaker 2: Americans have to their celebrities, and so I could have 592 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 2: seen him taking a different approach. But ultimately, you know 593 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 2: his instincts for if you're an enemy, you know, doesn't matter, 594 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 2: live dead, whatever, Like like I'm I'm never gonna be nice. 595 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 2: I will never forgive, I will never forget, I will 596 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 2: never never be cordial. That is just not something that 597 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 2: he will ever overcome. 598 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 4: And actually, Susie. 599 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 2: Wells, we'll get to this later, had a little bit 600 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 2: of something to say about that in this crazy interview 601 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 2: that she gave to Vanity Fair. 602 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right, you know, I also think that the 603 00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 3: Charlie kirkping can't be understated, right, because we did live 604 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 3: through kind of a moment where people are like, hey, 605 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 3: like we need to have a set amount of discourse 606 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 3: when somebody dies, even a controversial figure, somebody overtly political 607 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 3: like Charlie Kirk, And there was literal state power, there 608 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 3: was an entire ecosystem dedicated to enforcing this type of 609 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 3: norm and then immediately. 610 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 4: Over six hundred people got fired. 611 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think some of them deserve to be fired. 612 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: I think that's fine. 613 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 3: And it's one of those though, where you can't hold 614 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:36,239 Speaker 3: that opinion and then also look at Trump's comment and 615 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 3: not say anything. So there's also I mean, that's only 616 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 3: what ninety days, It hasn't been that long since he passed. 617 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 3: It's only been a couple of months, so this is 618 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 3: still fresh in a lot of people's memory, and you know, 619 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 3: you got to remember, for people who aren't overtly again political, 620 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 3: let's just say like kind of right leaning ish, they 621 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 3: found the Charlie Kirk thing horrifying for the murder, and 622 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 3: I think some of them took it seriously. What people 623 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,160 Speaker 3: were saying, We're like, yeah, it's horrible, we should and 624 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 3: celebrate anybody's murder, anybody's death. And so then to explicitly 625 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 3: then turn around and do it, you know, from the 626 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 3: President of the United States himself, is shocking, I think 627 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 3: for anybody who took those types of ideas seriously. But 628 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 3: I think finally, really what it is to me is 629 00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 3: Trump the magic sauce, whatever it is that has held 630 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 3: him together for ten years, That old Donnie always wriggled his. 631 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 1: Way out, and I think he will. 632 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,520 Speaker 3: You know, legally, I'm not saying that, you know, the 633 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 3: walls are closing in or any of that. I just 634 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 3: think his specter of untouchability is starting to fall apart. 635 00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:34,480 Speaker 3: It's been that way for a couple of months, but 636 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 3: this one that you know, it's the stuff like this watch. 637 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 3: I always assumed, I go, look, people just don't care. 638 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 3: I don't get it. Never will not. My cup of 639 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:45,440 Speaker 3: tea never has been for how somebody who can operate, 640 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 3: you know there at the highest level. 641 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 1: I was like, but you know that that's me being 642 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 1: out of touch. But maybe not. 643 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,640 Speaker 3: Maybe's people are starting to you know, kind of surface 644 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 3: back to reality. Maybe it was just ten years of madness. 645 00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:00,160 Speaker 3: I don't know, but this very clearly has broke in 646 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 3: the paradigm. 647 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:04,200 Speaker 2: Well, you and Ryan played a sat from him yesterday 648 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 2: where he was talking about bringing the troops home from Sarah, 649 00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 2: how that workout anyway? And it was from what like 650 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 2: twenty eighteen and twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen somewhere in there. 651 00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 2: I have the cat behind me now and I was like, wow, 652 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 2: he looked so much more alive. He his color was different, 653 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 2: like he It really brought home for me just how 654 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 2: much he has aged over the past number of years. 655 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 2: And so, you know, I don't think that can be 656 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:36,640 Speaker 2: discounted here either. When you're talking about whatever his magic sauces, 657 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 2: he's kind of losing it. 658 00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, he is, he is. 659 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,480 Speaker 2: I mean, the vigor is not there, the sense of 660 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 2: where the American people are isn't there. You know, even 661 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 2: maybe the like whether or not he cares what people think. 662 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:52,240 Speaker 2: He's he's old, he's you know, not going to be 663 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:56,719 Speaker 2: around forever. And you know, as you've become older, you 664 00:32:57,080 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 2: kind of you lose your patience, you lose it was 665 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 2: your self restraint. All of those things happen as people age, 666 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 2: and so I think that's part of it too, is 667 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,000 Speaker 2: just like, you know, he's an old man and he's 668 00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 2: really starting to show it. 669 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 1: You might be right. 670 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:12,479 Speaker 3: You know, what did we always say under Biden? You 671 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 3: revert to the me. You know, you kind of revert 672 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 3: to the mean of exactly who you are. And it's 673 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 3: a stressful job no matter what you know ornery, even 674 00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 3: if you don't even work that hard, it's still hard. 675 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 3: It's just difficult job. It's the hardest job in the world. 676 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:26,360 Speaker 11: Uh. 677 00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:30,000 Speaker 1: And yeah, I don't know. Again, I fully don't know. 678 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 3: I think this is one of the most interesting political moments, 679 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 3: just sociologically, that I've seen in quite some time, because 680 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 3: never I never see you know, normal Trump voting women 681 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 3: be like. 682 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 1: I'm so disgusted by this. I never see that. 683 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 3: It's always I mean, come on, you've met these people 684 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 3: too in real life. 685 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,880 Speaker 1: It's always like what about ism or the left and. 686 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:53,440 Speaker 4: Whatever, fine or like I don't like it, but I 687 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 4: like it. But there was no butt with this. 688 00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 2: I mean, by and large, it was like, I don't 689 00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 2: like it, period, period, end of story. 690 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:03,600 Speaker 4: This is a major disappointment and he needs to do better. 691 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 1: I agree. I agree. So interesting in its own right. 692 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 3: Turning down to you the Brown University shooting and the 693 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 3: hunt for the suspect after two students were tragically killed 694 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 3: in circumstances that we still do not yet understand. Ryan 695 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 3: and I covered the FBI's failures yesterday with the release 696 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 3: of a so called person of interest. The name was 697 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 3: leaked to the news media and it was a huge 698 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 3: screw up by the FBI. Trump On now under fire 699 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:34,960 Speaker 3: by Cash Btel's handling of the case, defending Cash Hotel 700 00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 3: and actually casting blame on the local police department. 701 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 1: Let's take a listen. 702 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 13: Has Cashptel told you why it's been so difficult for 703 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:43,720 Speaker 13: the FBI to identify. 704 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:44,080 Speaker 4: Who the shooter is? 705 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,440 Speaker 6: Well, it's always difficult. So far, we've done a very 706 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,759 Speaker 6: good job of doing it with Charlie, with you know, 707 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 6: the various times this has happened. They've done it in 708 00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 6: the pretty much record time. But you didn't really have 709 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 6: to ask the school a little bit more about that, 710 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 6: because you know, this was a school problem. They had 711 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:06,759 Speaker 6: their own guards, they had their own police head, their 712 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 6: own everything. But you'd have to ask that question really 713 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 6: to the school, not to the FBI. We came in 714 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:16,279 Speaker 6: after the fact, and the FBI will do a good job, 715 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:18,279 Speaker 6: but they came in after the fact. 716 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:21,080 Speaker 3: Came through after the fact, talking casting blame there on 717 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:25,080 Speaker 3: the local officials. I mean, remember, look, I mean I 718 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:28,280 Speaker 3: do think that the local officials haven't necessarily handled themselves 719 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 3: the best here. 720 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:30,880 Speaker 1: But let's be very clear. 721 00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,560 Speaker 3: The FBI is the one who screened that so called 722 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 3: person of interest. They're the ones who touted it on 723 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 3: social media as if it was some sort of victory. 724 00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:41,759 Speaker 3: Now speculation remains about who leaked the name of that individual, 725 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:43,719 Speaker 3: who again we are not going to say his name. 726 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:48,360 Speaker 3: This is a you know, decorated US Army veteran member 727 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 3: of the Honor Guard whose name was besmirched in the 728 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 3: public life, dissected disgustingly, I would add, as a result 729 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 3: of their handling. And by the way, just in case, 730 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 3: I know, we'll get to that in a bit, but 731 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,720 Speaker 3: the current director of the FBI has an interview airing 732 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 3: today with his girlfriend about their love story and how 733 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 3: they met on Katie Miller's podcast. Yes, I know it 734 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:16,720 Speaker 3: was probably filmed earlier, but I'm sorry, just not really 735 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:19,120 Speaker 3: what I think that the director of the FBI should 736 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:22,360 Speaker 3: ever be doing out there in public. I mean, it's disgusting, 737 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,279 Speaker 3: it's shocking, and I think that this does highlight just 738 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 3: the sheer amount of incompetence within this bureau and it's 739 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,440 Speaker 3: law enforcement and how they continue to tell us how 740 00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 3: these are the best in the brightest, and we are 741 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:38,279 Speaker 3: watching a shooter who has now escaped justice for more 742 00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:42,399 Speaker 3: than forty eight hours. Brown University, a campus which has 743 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:45,360 Speaker 3: now reportedly have been papered in eight. 744 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:46,600 Speaker 1: Hundred cameras crystal. 745 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:51,520 Speaker 3: Very few clear photographs of the person of suspect that 746 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:55,359 Speaker 3: have been released yet to the public. Here is that 747 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 3: specific question being posed to local officials last night at 748 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 3: a newscast. 749 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:01,360 Speaker 1: Let's take a listen. 750 00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:06,759 Speaker 14: Ron University is the most camera ridden, most preconscious piece 751 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:09,200 Speaker 14: of real estate for r Island, and yet there seems 752 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 14: to be little or no video evidence outside of that clip, 753 00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 14: you know, respecting the investigation, is there a lot more 754 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,760 Speaker 14: video that we're just not able to see yet because 755 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 14: of the ongoing investigation, or is there simply no video. 756 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:25,239 Speaker 13: So we shared with you the other day, is what 757 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:27,279 Speaker 13: we have that we could have shared, and then we'll 758 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 13: continue to again. We're continuing to collect evidence as we speak. 759 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 13: We have detectives out there trying to continue to define 760 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:34,160 Speaker 13: So I don't want to tell you that there's no 761 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 13: more video because we might find something within the next 762 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:38,800 Speaker 13: few minutes. So so yes, it's possible. 763 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:40,239 Speaker 1: But what we gave you is what we have. 764 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 3: We're giving what we have. What we have is not 765 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:44,879 Speaker 3: very much. Right now, let's go and put the video 766 00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 3: up here, guys, please on the screen, just to show 767 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 3: you some of the video that's been released. I mean, 768 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,440 Speaker 3: this is I'm sorry, like I can't really see anything 769 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:56,400 Speaker 3: here about what's going on with this suspect is leaving campus. 770 00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:59,439 Speaker 3: It appears we do have I think a little bit 771 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:03,759 Speaker 3: more that has been released there from the FBI and 772 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:06,920 Speaker 3: some images which we can put up here on the screen. 773 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 3: Just a couple other images that were released here a 774 00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:15,120 Speaker 3: mass individual wearing a sweatshirt with a beanie. Kind of 775 00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:18,880 Speaker 3: difficult to see any of the facial features. But you know, honestly, 776 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:22,680 Speaker 3: the video, the images that were released in the aftermath 777 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:27,000 Speaker 3: of Tyler Robinson of the Charlie Kirk assassination were much 778 00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:31,040 Speaker 3: more clear and obviously led to his apprehension very quickly 779 00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:34,800 Speaker 3: in the immediate aftermath. So there are some crazy questions 780 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,440 Speaker 3: here that are being asked here about the ability of launch, 781 00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:39,080 Speaker 3: What is the purpose of all of these eight hundred 782 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:42,320 Speaker 3: cameras and of ring and of AI did crime detection 783 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,920 Speaker 3: and all of that when we're days now after this 784 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 3: shooting and there's still nothing yet been released allegedly. Remember 785 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:53,919 Speaker 3: these have they have the most sophisticated technology for cell 786 00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:57,719 Speaker 3: phones and for all of that, and ultimately they've got nothing. 787 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:00,320 Speaker 3: I mean, we've got video coming out from the scene 788 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 3: crystal of them, you know, like canvassing of different buildings 789 00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:08,920 Speaker 3: that are nearby. But it does not look in any 790 00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,880 Speaker 3: way like they are close to apprehending us. Up we 791 00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:14,359 Speaker 3: hope that they are. If you do see something, if 792 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,480 Speaker 3: you recognize that person, call the FBI, call local police. 793 00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:20,080 Speaker 3: We hope that you do in this person is brought 794 00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 3: to justice. But you can't help but just spotlight the 795 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:26,520 Speaker 3: failure of the FBI here two back back high profile cases. 796 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:28,680 Speaker 1: Total failure and to. 797 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:30,279 Speaker 2: Your point, I mean, if we're going to live in 798 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 2: the palanteer mass surveillance state, the least we could get 799 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,239 Speaker 2: out of it is some like, you know, effective crime 800 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,400 Speaker 2: fighting here, right, I think that's the bare minimum we 801 00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:39,879 Speaker 2: could ask for. And look, they're probably going to find 802 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:42,960 Speaker 2: this guy. Probably there's someone out there who will see 803 00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:46,920 Speaker 2: these images and you know, the like he's a kind 804 00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:47,759 Speaker 2: of a grofy guy. 805 00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:49,239 Speaker 4: They'll recognize the body type. 806 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 2: They'll say, I've seen that guy, you know, with that 807 00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:55,320 Speaker 2: that particular fleece, Like this may triger something for someone. 808 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,319 Speaker 2: That's what happened with Luigi Mangioni, That's what happened with 809 00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 2: Tyler Robinson. So I think I think we will probably 810 00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:04,400 Speaker 2: end up capturing this guy. But yeah, to be this 811 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:07,920 Speaker 2: many hours later and still have so little to go on, 812 00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 2: and then to go back to what Trump was saying there, 813 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 2: First of all, it sounded like he was blaming like 814 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:16,480 Speaker 2: not even the local PD, like the campus security, like 815 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:18,279 Speaker 2: they're the ones who are supposed to be doing some 816 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:20,240 Speaker 2: like national or international manhunt. 817 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 4: Preposterous. 818 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:25,200 Speaker 2: Second of all, the FBI was perfectly happy to wrap 819 00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:27,399 Speaker 2: their arms around this and claim that this was all 820 00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 2: their victories. When they thought that they had the killer 821 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 2: in custody, and now that the whole thing is a 822 00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:36,799 Speaker 2: shambles suddenly, Oh it's the local PD's fault. Like just 823 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:41,640 Speaker 2: I mean, it's just total incompetence, completely shambalic. How many 824 00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:44,960 Speaker 2: times have we had these situations unfold? Or with the 825 00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:49,160 Speaker 2: shooting of the National guardsman in DC, remember Cash came as, oh, 826 00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:51,719 Speaker 2: we have a suspect custod No, you were looking for 827 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:54,720 Speaker 2: the suspect. We're looking for the suspect. No, you actually 828 00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:57,799 Speaker 2: have that one, that one you actually have. It's embarrassing. 829 00:40:57,840 --> 00:40:59,799 Speaker 2: And then you couple on top of that, apparently what 830 00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:01,840 Speaker 2: he's spending his time doing is sitting down for this 831 00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 2: interview with Steven Miller's wife to talk about his love life, 832 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:08,480 Speaker 2: like what is going on? And uh, you know, of 833 00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:12,239 Speaker 2: course Cash's image already has been completely destroyed by his 834 00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 2: handling and being the public face of the Epstein Files 835 00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:18,520 Speaker 2: cover up, so just you know, really covering himself in 836 00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 2: glory here. 837 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:23,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, I look again, the girlfriend interview. Can you imagine 838 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:29,799 Speaker 3: Jaggar Hoover sitting down in the middle of I don't know, 839 00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 3: the Kennedy's that were the hunt for who's the bank robber? 840 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:35,280 Speaker 3: John Dillinger and he's like, let me tell you about 841 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:36,880 Speaker 3: my well, I mean secretly. 842 00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:39,319 Speaker 4: Well, there were a lot of there was a lot 843 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:40,240 Speaker 4: of interest in his love. 844 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:41,120 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I was. 845 00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:42,959 Speaker 1: I mean maybe maybe it was true. 846 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:47,120 Speaker 3: But just imagine him sitting down or Robert Muller, right, 847 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 3: Robert Muller sitting down for an interview about his Catholic 848 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:52,200 Speaker 3: relationship or something. 849 00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:53,200 Speaker 4: Christopher Ray. 850 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 2: I mean they ended up hating him, right. Can you 851 00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:58,239 Speaker 2: imagine the way mag I would have melted down if 852 00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:00,840 Speaker 2: he was out there, I mean married, like about his 853 00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:03,160 Speaker 2: love life. I think when she met his wife or whatever. 854 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:05,799 Speaker 1: Like it's not about man, It's like, we should melt down. 855 00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:07,840 Speaker 4: This is crazy, this is crazy, ridiculous. 856 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 1: I can't live like this. 857 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:12,239 Speaker 2: And he's of course using all these public resources to 858 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:15,280 Speaker 2: fly around to her, like singing at the wrestling event 859 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:17,480 Speaker 2: and whatever, and it's. 860 00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:18,920 Speaker 4: Just just unreal. 861 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:22,200 Speaker 2: And I do wonder, you know, I feel like every 862 00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:27,239 Speaker 2: time Cash gets liberal press criticism it helps to keep 863 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:29,799 Speaker 2: him in the job longer. But I have to think 864 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:32,319 Speaker 2: Trump is to the extent Trump cares about anything at 865 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:33,880 Speaker 2: this point, I have to think he's looking at this 866 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,400 Speaker 2: guy and going like, I don't know, I don't know, 867 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:38,239 Speaker 2: and you were saying, Oh, I think we have this. 868 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 2: Actually B five up on the screen. I guess Bongino 869 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,919 Speaker 2: was back to angsting over whether or not he's gonna 870 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 2: stay in his job. 871 00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:46,240 Speaker 4: This is from Fox News. 872 00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,320 Speaker 2: Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino will decide about his future 873 00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:51,760 Speaker 2: at the bureau in the next few weeks. He's already 874 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,319 Speaker 2: been sort of sidelined because I don't know if you 875 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,879 Speaker 2: guys remember, he already had one of these like I'm 876 00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,279 Speaker 2: going to just leave for the weekend decide what my 877 00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 2: future is going to be. He so he's already been 878 00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:04,080 Speaker 2: kind of like sidelined and sort of replaced by someone 879 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 2: else in his position. Of course, he still technically has 880 00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:09,239 Speaker 2: the job. So anyway, we're back to angsting about Dan 881 00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:12,759 Speaker 2: Bongino and what his future path is going to look like. 882 00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:14,840 Speaker 3: Look, I'm making fun of some of this, but this 883 00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:17,239 Speaker 3: is not a joke, right. You know, two people lost 884 00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:20,040 Speaker 3: their lives. Let's go to quick before. Up here on 885 00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:23,560 Speaker 3: the screen, you have two students. I mean, these kids 886 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:26,360 Speaker 3: were in the prime of their lives nineteen twenty years old. 887 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:29,680 Speaker 3: You have Ella Cook and I hope I say this correctly. 888 00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 3: Mohammad Aziz Umurazakov identified as the two killed in Brown University. Apparently, 889 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:38,080 Speaker 3: you know, at least one of them. They weren't a class, 890 00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:40,560 Speaker 3: they weren't even necessarily supposed to be in, just you know, 891 00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:42,880 Speaker 3: two students. They had big dreams. 892 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:45,200 Speaker 1: One I think Ella, you know, she was involved in 893 00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:46,400 Speaker 1: Republican politics. 894 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:49,400 Speaker 3: Muhammad disease. He you know, wanted to be a doctor. 895 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:51,800 Speaker 3: You know, look it's his Brown University is one of 896 00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:54,440 Speaker 3: the toughest universities in the United States to get into. 897 00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:58,000 Speaker 3: They really, you know, they were going places. At least 898 00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:00,960 Speaker 3: that's what the people around them said. And that is 899 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:04,040 Speaker 3: why we're supposed to not have FBI directors who go 900 00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:05,720 Speaker 3: on podcasts to talk about their love life. 901 00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:07,160 Speaker 1: This is serious business. 902 00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:10,240 Speaker 3: This is something that you've been entrusted by the public 903 00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:13,720 Speaker 3: to take seriously and to do. We've given you extraordinary powers. 904 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:15,560 Speaker 3: You're supposed to work on our behalf. You're supposed to 905 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:18,680 Speaker 3: keep us safe. And when people perpetuate, you know, horrific 906 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:20,360 Speaker 3: crimes like this, you're supposed to catch them. 907 00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:21,680 Speaker 1: You're supposed to catch them immediately. 908 00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:25,680 Speaker 3: And it's not about tweeting out pictures about how great 909 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:27,880 Speaker 3: of a person of interests about doing the job, bringing 910 00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:30,840 Speaker 3: a prosecution and bringing justice because there's a couple of 911 00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:33,279 Speaker 3: families out there who are broken. And so that's what 912 00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:36,200 Speaker 3: I think makes me really sick about this entire thing 913 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:40,080 Speaker 3: is that, you know, this, this has consequences. And it's 914 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:43,040 Speaker 3: funny to laugh at the girlfriend podcast and all that 915 00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:46,360 Speaker 3: and the clear obsession over public image and the damage 916 00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:48,440 Speaker 3: that the Epstein file is handling and all of that 917 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:50,000 Speaker 3: has had. But it's just like the Epstein case, it's 918 00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:51,640 Speaker 3: not just a case that we're talking about. These are 919 00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:54,920 Speaker 3: you know, little girls who were victimized, right, you know, 920 00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:57,920 Speaker 3: by wealthy, powerful people, and it was used potentially on 921 00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:00,760 Speaker 3: behalf of state actors, but ultimately the real victims. 922 00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 1: Right. 923 00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:05,839 Speaker 3: So yeah, I feel repulsed honestly about this because you've 924 00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:09,279 Speaker 3: got these two families probably desperately checking the news, just 925 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:10,640 Speaker 3: want to know what happened. 926 00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 1: The worst possible thing just happened. 927 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 2: To them, and how many more who were injured who 928 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:18,840 Speaker 2: are in the hospital right now, and how many more 929 00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:22,239 Speaker 2: psychologically traumatized. And meanwhile, you have you know, an entire 930 00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:25,239 Speaker 2: school community, an entire town that's like, am I safe? 931 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 12: Here? 932 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 2: There's a mass shooter who is still on the loose, 933 00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:32,040 Speaker 2: and they have no idea where this person is. And meanwhile, 934 00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:33,799 Speaker 2: you know, the President of the United States is saying 935 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:37,000 Speaker 2: it's not really our problem, and Cash Rettel is doing 936 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 2: sit downs about his girlfriend and his love life. You just, 937 00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:42,040 Speaker 2: I mean, you just can't make it up. You cannot 938 00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:44,520 Speaker 2: have influencers in like these positions of power. 939 00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:46,400 Speaker 4: It's utterly, utterly insane. 940 00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:52,279 Speaker 2: We also wanted to talk a little bit about some 941 00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:57,719 Speaker 2: Republican response to the attack at Bondai Beach in Australia. 942 00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:04,880 Speaker 2: Another just horrified, absolute tragedy unfolding. They're the number of victims, 943 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:08,680 Speaker 2: you know, people there to celebrate Hanukkah, just absolutely horrific. 944 00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:12,040 Speaker 2: And the response to that from some on the right 945 00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:14,719 Speaker 2: has been just, I mean, I don't even know what 946 00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 2: to say. I can put this up on the screen. 947 00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:20,320 Speaker 2: Tommy Tuberville, senator from Alabama, gave a whole floor speech 948 00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:23,440 Speaker 2: about how you know Muslims are terrible and evil. Just 949 00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:26,520 Speaker 2: En masks not you know, individual people with radical ideology 950 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,440 Speaker 2: known all Muslims. He says, Islam is not a religion, 951 00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:32,799 Speaker 2: it's a cult. Islamists are not here to assimilate, They're 952 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:36,680 Speaker 2: here to conquer. Stop worrying about offending the pearl clutchers. 953 00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:39,480 Speaker 2: We've got to send them home now or it'll become 954 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:44,360 Speaker 2: the United Caliphate of America. We also have Vicki Palladino, 955 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:47,799 Speaker 2: who is a councilwoman. She represents Staten Island in New York, 956 00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 2: and she says, and keep in mind New York, a 957 00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:54,760 Speaker 2: city with millions of Muslims, including now the mayor elect 958 00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:56,960 Speaker 2: of the city. She says, we're in the midst of 959 00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:59,719 Speaker 2: a global jihad the likes of which the world has 960 00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:02,080 Speaker 2: never and we cannot ignore it. We need to take 961 00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:06,000 Speaker 2: very seriously the need to begin the expulsion of Muslims 962 00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:08,760 Speaker 2: from Western nations, or at the very least the severe 963 00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:12,800 Speaker 2: sanction of them within Western borders. The administration needs to 964 00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:16,120 Speaker 2: begin developing a formal legal framework for the denationalization process 965 00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:17,880 Speaker 2: and get it over with before we end up with 966 00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:20,759 Speaker 2: another nine to eleven or worse. Enough is enough now. 967 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:23,960 Speaker 2: I do think that she ended up deleting that tweet. 968 00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:26,799 Speaker 2: But then of course we've got Randy Fine, who you know, 969 00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:32,600 Speaker 2: always covering himself in glory, so more just disgusting commentary 970 00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:36,839 Speaker 2: from him saying that, you know, all Muslims must go 971 00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:41,359 Speaker 2: diversity is not our strength. And nine to eleven wasn't enough. 972 00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:44,840 Speaker 2: October seventh wasn't enough. Muslim immigrants are attacking and killing 973 00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:49,799 Speaker 2: non Muslims in America wasn't enough. So remember Saber, how 974 00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:54,839 Speaker 2: how Rashida sale was censured for just saying, you know, 975 00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:58,399 Speaker 2: in the context of like Palestinian liberation from the river 976 00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:00,719 Speaker 2: to the sea, Palestine must be free, and she was 977 00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:03,439 Speaker 2: censured by Congress. Now you have people who are out 978 00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:08,200 Speaker 2: and out calling for the expulsion of all Muslims, whether 979 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:13,239 Speaker 2: they're immigrant or non who are completely demonizing an entire religion, 980 00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:17,680 Speaker 2: and there's very very little pushback here. But the most 981 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,640 Speaker 2: important thing that I wanted to highlight so that people 982 00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:23,640 Speaker 2: understand what's going on outside of just being thoroughly disgusted 983 00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:25,719 Speaker 2: by this open bigotry and how much this is just 984 00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:30,000 Speaker 2: accepted now in the Republican Party and in the mainstream 985 00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:34,279 Speaker 2: is Ryan and Dropsite covered how the Israelis had done 986 00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:36,520 Speaker 2: a bunch of testing about like, Okay, what do we 987 00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:39,360 Speaker 2: do to get people back on our side, And the 988 00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:42,360 Speaker 2: thing that they found was the most powerful was to 989 00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:47,799 Speaker 2: stoke anti Muslim hate, to stoke Islamophobia. And so this 990 00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:50,279 Speaker 2: is a sort of desperate. I see it as a 991 00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:53,880 Speaker 2: desperate and concerted strategy to try to get Republicans in 992 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:58,400 Speaker 2: particular back on board with Israel being our great ally 993 00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:00,799 Speaker 2: and you know, oh, we've all got to like link 994 00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:05,239 Speaker 2: arms and fight the bad Muslims together. That's what this 995 00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:07,959 Speaker 2: is really at its core, A bottom his cords about 996 00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:09,960 Speaker 2: hatred and bigotry and all of those things, But this 997 00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:13,400 Speaker 2: is also sort of a desperate strategy to get people 998 00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 2: to stay in line with Israel being on our side 999 00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:21,360 Speaker 2: and you know, and us sharing the same enemies. 1000 00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:23,480 Speaker 4: So we've got to. 1001 00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:25,799 Speaker 2: Support them no matter what and give them whatever they want, 1002 00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:26,319 Speaker 2: no matter what. 1003 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:26,879 Speaker 1: Right. 1004 00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:28,640 Speaker 3: I mean, by the way, you don't even just need 1005 00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:30,319 Speaker 3: drop shout out to drops out or not. They didn't 1006 00:49:30,320 --> 00:49:32,319 Speaker 3: do anything wrong. But you know, read the Charlie Kirk 1007 00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:34,160 Speaker 3: letter that he sent to Benjaminett and Yahoo. 1008 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:35,719 Speaker 1: It was released for everyone to see. 1009 00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:38,200 Speaker 3: He's like, you guys are losing support to way to 1010 00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:40,720 Speaker 3: combat that is to demonize Islam. 1011 00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:43,239 Speaker 1: Charlie was doing a lot of that right before he died. 1012 00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:46,640 Speaker 3: I took took notice of it, and because I you know, 1013 00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:49,319 Speaker 3: know what's going on. You could see very clearly in 1014 00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:51,600 Speaker 3: what direction, and you know, I've I've talked about this. 1015 00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:54,880 Speaker 1: It's interesting to me. They genuinely seem. 1016 00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:59,080 Speaker 3: To believe that you are allowed to group in the 1017 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:02,560 Speaker 3: actions of a fe individuals and decide that that is 1018 00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:07,560 Speaker 3: representative of the entire ethnic religious faith, and that thus 1019 00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:11,799 Speaker 3: that will never backfire on you, even though that is 1020 00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:14,839 Speaker 3: literally the hard and soul of the you know, their 1021 00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:17,239 Speaker 3: cause that they've decided to fight with everything they have 1022 00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:21,640 Speaker 3: anti Semitism. I have no idea how you cannot think 1023 00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:25,759 Speaker 3: that openly normalizing this type of rhetoric and a framework 1024 00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:28,080 Speaker 3: of looking at the world is not going to come 1025 00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:29,759 Speaker 3: back and bite you in the ass. We talked about 1026 00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:33,040 Speaker 3: this during the whole Nick Fuintes Piers Morgan thing right. 1027 00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:36,279 Speaker 3: Nick is very honest actually about that worldview and how 1028 00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:39,040 Speaker 3: he can and then apply it to Jewish Americans or 1029 00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:41,440 Speaker 3: to Jews more broadly. But they seem to think that 1030 00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:44,200 Speaker 3: you can have it both ways. You actually cannot if 1031 00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:47,200 Speaker 3: you're going to let this out in terms of Pandora's box. 1032 00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:50,040 Speaker 3: And that's honestly why I find so disgusting about it, 1033 00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:52,680 Speaker 3: because you know, you say it's about hatred and bigatory. 1034 00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:54,319 Speaker 3: It's like, you know, I don't even I think they're 1035 00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:58,560 Speaker 3: so cynical that they're just willing to say anything, you know, 1036 00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:00,480 Speaker 3: to defend their pro Israel. 1037 00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:02,720 Speaker 1: Cause I'm not even sure if they really believe this stuff. 1038 00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:03,520 Speaker 1: It's really just. 1039 00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:05,000 Speaker 4: I think Randy Fine probably does. 1040 00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:08,640 Speaker 3: Randy probably does, Tommy Tupperville, many of the other so 1041 00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:12,040 Speaker 3: called influencers and others are just looking at the memo 1042 00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:12,960 Speaker 3: of this. 1043 00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:14,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think so. 1044 00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:18,360 Speaker 3: And I mean, look, I'll have I'll happily talk culture 1045 00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:21,480 Speaker 3: with anybody anytime of the week.

There is no moral equivalence or there is 1054 00:51:50,239 --> 00:51:53,799 Speaker 3: no sorry, there is no like moral superiority that if 1055 00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:56,319 Speaker 3: anything right now right, things are trending a little bit 1056 00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:58,680 Speaker 3: in the other direction in terms of who has power 1057 00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:02,000 Speaker 3: and actionalizes it, let's say, on the world stage. 1058 00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:02,839 Speaker 1: So I don't know. 1059 00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:06,440 Speaker 3: I mean that's my personal view of this, and I 1060 00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:09,359 Speaker 3: do just think it's really gross, how cynical and how 1061 00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:12,160 Speaker 3: open it is out there, and ultimately, you know, for 1062 00:52:13,320 --> 00:52:15,600 Speaker 3: Jewish Americans, I think this is just the worst thing 1063 00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:17,440 Speaker 3: that you can do. I really do. It's like, if 1064 00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:19,600 Speaker 3: you guys want to engage in this, you are not 1065 00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:23,680 Speaker 3: going to win. People are going to start thinking explicitly 1066 00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:27,640 Speaker 3: in ethno religious terms, and you know, they talk noticing 1067 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:30,040 Speaker 3: is something that's like a meme right out there. 1068 00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:31,560 Speaker 1: They'd apply that to Muslims. 1069 00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:33,440 Speaker 3: I'm like, okay, fine, then you know it's like, you 1070 00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:37,200 Speaker 3: guys really want to quote notice about support for Israel. 1071 00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:39,480 Speaker 1: And about lobbying and about. 1072 00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:42,920 Speaker 3: Pushing you know, certain agendas when you're in power, Like 1073 00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:44,880 Speaker 3: it's just not going to work out for you. I 1074 00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:48,080 Speaker 3: choose to look at the world in terms of individuals. 1075 00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:53,040 Speaker 3: I think it should too, and it's just and allegedly 1076 00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:55,680 Speaker 3: that's a promise of America, but they don't want that, 1077 00:52:56,280 --> 00:52:58,200 Speaker 3: And yeah, I think this will. 1078 00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:00,600 Speaker 1: I think this is a. 1079 00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:05,440 Speaker 3: Catastrophic mistake for the Jewish community and for Jewish Americans. 1080 00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:08,960 Speaker 3: But uh, you know, that's that's what they've decided to 1081 00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:12,160 Speaker 3: push at the very least, the pro Israel part a contingent, 1082 00:53:12,239 --> 00:53:15,800 Speaker 3: let's say, and uh yeah, I think they're going to 1083 00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:18,239 Speaker 3: rue the day that they wanted to normalize this type 1084 00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:18,720 Speaker 3: of rhetoric. 1085 00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:22,239 Speaker 2: I keep thinking back to Laura Lumer, who you know, 1086 00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:25,440 Speaker 2: describes herself as proud islamophobe and certainly backs that up 1087 00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:28,239 Speaker 2: in all sorts of ways, going back and forth with 1088 00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:30,840 Speaker 2: someone on Twitter, and she says to them, you're a Muslim, 1089 00:53:30,880 --> 00:53:33,920 Speaker 2: and they come back with your a Jew. And basically 1090 00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:38,240 Speaker 2: the you know, and and so basically what the zion 1091 00:53:38,320 --> 00:53:41,239 Speaker 2: Is like, the right wing pro Israel supporters and you know, 1092 00:53:41,360 --> 00:53:44,719 Speaker 2: Israeli officials themselves are hoping is that they can win 1093 00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:47,520 Speaker 2: that debate, that they can come out on top and 1094 00:53:47,600 --> 00:53:50,000 Speaker 2: convince people that it is worse to be a Muslim 1095 00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:53,080 Speaker 2: than it is to be a Jew. But buying into 1096 00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:56,799 Speaker 2: because I mean, Israel is it is an ethnos nationalist, 1097 00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:01,719 Speaker 2: Jewish supremacist state. That is the best rock political ideology 1098 00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:04,880 Speaker 2: undergirding the entire project. That's why you have apartheid, that's 1099 00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:06,960 Speaker 2: why you have ethnic cleansing, that's why you have all 1100 00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:09,560 Speaker 2: this concerns about you know, the demographics, and that as 1101 00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:10,680 Speaker 2: some existential threat. 1102 00:54:10,960 --> 00:54:12,440 Speaker 4: So that is their view. 1103 00:54:12,600 --> 00:54:18,360 Speaker 2: They have a fundamentally they have a fundamentally ethno nationalists 1104 00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:22,839 Speaker 2: and ethno centric racialist view. And so their bet is 1105 00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:25,560 Speaker 2: we can convince at least the American right. I think 1106 00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:27,080 Speaker 2: they've given up on the left, but we can at 1107 00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:30,200 Speaker 2: least convince the American right that the Muslims are worse 1108 00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:33,279 Speaker 2: than the Jews, and therefore you gotta stick with us. 1109 00:54:33,680 --> 00:54:36,880 Speaker 2: That's the bet they're making. Good Luck, good luck with that, 1110 00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:42,799 Speaker 2: good luck with embracing an overtly racialist, identitarian worldview and 1111 00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:46,200 Speaker 2: not thinking that that is ultimately going to come for 1112 00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:48,359 Speaker 2: Jewish people. I think it's a horror.

We may want to 1135 00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:49,560 Speaker 1: cover it on on Thursday. 1136 00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:52,520 Speaker 3: There's a viral essay in a magazine Compact, which one 1137 00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:57,440 Speaker 3: writes for, and it's about this explicit regime within a 1138 00:55:57,440 --> 00:56:00,920 Speaker 3: lot of elite companies over the last a decade or 1139 00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:05,040 Speaker 3: so fifteen years where they decided to explicitly say, let's 1140 00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:07,640 Speaker 3: not hire millennial young white men. 1141 00:56:08,120 --> 00:56:10,120 Speaker 1: And the essay has gone very viral. 1142 00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:12,560 Speaker 3: It's actually very selective and interesting because like boomer white 1143 00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:14,239 Speaker 3: men got to keep their jobs, but it was much 1144 00:56:14,239 --> 00:56:18,040 Speaker 3: more directed. But like you look at how much rage 1145 00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:21,520 Speaker 3: that can you know inspire? I think not only the 1146 00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:24,759 Speaker 3: people who were discriminated, let's say, against themselves, but to 1147 00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:28,600 Speaker 3: what mindset and what ends that that can bring. And 1148 00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:31,759 Speaker 3: these people seem to just think that they're going to 1149 00:56:31,840 --> 00:56:35,279 Speaker 3: win this like immediate term war where they're just going 1150 00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:38,920 Speaker 3: to convince people that only Muslims, let's say, are dangerous 1151 00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:41,520 Speaker 3: look out for their own agenda and have you know, 1152 00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:46,719 Speaker 3: dual loyalties or anything. Again, Okay, I mean, you cannot 1153 00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:50,839 Speaker 3: put that cat back in the bag period whenever it 1154 00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:56,200 Speaker 3: becomes an outright view of explicitly looking at things like 1155 00:56:56,280 --> 00:56:59,200 Speaker 3: in terms. I mean I saw it recently. I don't 1156 00:56:59,200 --> 00:57:01,560 Speaker 3: forget exactly who it was. Was like what's wrong with 1157 00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:05,400 Speaker 3: the whites only immigration policy? It's like, okay, I know, 1158 00:57:05,719 --> 00:57:08,640 Speaker 3: you know if it's one of those where, uh, then you. 1159 00:57:08,560 --> 00:57:16,080 Speaker 12: Cannot complain Australia had a white's only immigration policy and 1160 00:57:16,080 --> 00:57:17,560 Speaker 12: that it's a shame that they got and they got 1161 00:57:17,640 --> 00:57:19,960 Speaker 12: rid of it because they didn't want to appear racist. 1162 00:57:20,040 --> 00:57:22,400 Speaker 4: So that is actually racist and that they should go 1163 00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:22,960 Speaker 4: back to it. 1164 00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:24,760 Speaker 1: So let's then let's do to the logic. 1165 00:57:24,800 --> 00:57:27,280 Speaker 3: So if you lose then and you're an opponent, and 1166 00:57:27,320 --> 00:57:30,920 Speaker 3: you lose and a opposing government decides to make an 1167 00:57:30,960 --> 00:57:35,280 Speaker 3: overtly racial view of immigration, how can you complain how 1168 00:57:35,320 --> 00:57:38,040 Speaker 3: could you possibly complain And so yeah, we are going 1169 00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:39,880 Speaker 3: to write what are you going to do about it? 1170 00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:42,400 Speaker 3: We beat We've decided to go in a different director. 1171 00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:44,760 Speaker 3: You can't bitch and complain about that. You can't by 1172 00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:47,480 Speaker 3: the way Australia had. You know, I'm not a great 1173 00:57:47,600 --> 00:57:49,600 Speaker 3: fan of Australia. I think the way they handled COVID 1174 00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:51,840 Speaker 3: was a disaster, et cetera. I have my disagreements with 1175 00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:53,240 Speaker 3: the government all of that. I think the one of 1176 00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:54,840 Speaker 3: the best immigration systems in the world. They have one 1177 00:57:54,840 --> 00:57:57,720 Speaker 3: of the high They have high merit based immigration for 1178 00:57:57,760 --> 00:58:00,800 Speaker 3: a long period of time, significance amounts of a similary. 1179 00:58:00,800 --> 00:58:02,520 Speaker 3: If our country looked more like Australia, I'd be a 1180 00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:05,600 Speaker 3: hell of a lot happy. But of course there's like this, 1181 00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:08,280 Speaker 3: They're like, well, it's just not why. I'm like, well, okay, 1182 00:58:08,680 --> 00:58:11,640 Speaker 3: if that's the world that you guys all want to 1183 00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:15,520 Speaker 3: live in, well then don't be surprised when that also 1184 00:58:15,720 --> 00:58:18,040 Speaker 3: just be not just used against you. You know, they 1185 00:58:18,040 --> 00:58:20,680 Speaker 3: talk about you know, white genocide or anything like that. 1186 00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:22,880 Speaker 3: It's like, yeah, but people might just end up embracing 1187 00:58:22,920 --> 00:58:27,040 Speaker 3: that fully. And you can't complain because the entire theory 1188 00:58:27,480 --> 00:58:31,400 Speaker 3: let's say around merit based immigration or any of that 1189 00:58:31,560 --> 00:58:36,000 Speaker 3: was we evaluate people as individuals, and Australia explicitly said 1190 00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:39,400 Speaker 3: we evaluate people as individuals and their ability to contribute 1191 00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:42,440 Speaker 3: to our nation, to our culture, and to make us better. 1192 00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:44,720 Speaker 3: And that's actually why they've had more of a successful 1193 00:58:44,720 --> 00:58:48,120 Speaker 3: immigration story than any western country in the world. 1194 00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:49,040 Speaker 1: And that's why when. 1195 00:58:48,880 --> 00:58:52,160 Speaker 3: I saw that, I was shocked by it, because you know, 1196 00:58:52,160 --> 00:58:54,480 Speaker 3: first of all, extrapolating a single incident is always a 1197 00:58:54,520 --> 00:58:56,560 Speaker 3: little bit ridiculous. You're supposed to look at things in 1198 00:58:56,640 --> 00:58:59,680 Speaker 3: the aggregated and more broadly and listen, it's to Australians 1199 00:58:59,680 --> 00:59:00,640 Speaker 3: to make their own decisions. 1200 00:59:00,680 --> 00:59:01,600 Speaker 1: It's not my country. 1201 00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:04,560 Speaker 3: You guys do as you would like purely as an 1202 00:59:04,560 --> 00:59:10,320 Speaker 3: outside observer. Though anytime you start to make overtly racial arguments, 1203 00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:13,160 Speaker 3: I just think, you know, first of all, don't be 1204 00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:16,240 Speaker 3: surprised when it's used against you. And second, you need 1205 00:59:16,280 --> 00:59:19,560 Speaker 3: to consider the thirtieth, fortieth, fiftieth order consequences of what 1206 00:59:19,720 --> 00:59:21,480 Speaker 3: all of that is going to look like. And I 1207 00:59:21,480 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 3: don't think that they are. I think that they just 1208 00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:24,560 Speaker 3: have no idea what they're playing with. 1209 00:59:24,600 --> 00:59:26,720 Speaker 2: It's also just like a larp and a fucking fantasy, 1210 00:59:26,800 --> 00:59:29,080 Speaker 2: Like we live in a multi ethnic country and that 1211 00:59:29,240 --> 00:59:32,040 Speaker 2: just is and it is a bedrock part of what 1212 00:59:32,160 --> 00:59:35,280 Speaker 2: America is. That it's not this like blood and soil project. 1213 00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:37,880 Speaker 2: It is a created thing, Like we came here, we 1214 00:59:37,880 --> 00:59:39,960 Speaker 2: colonized it, we created it based on these, you know, 1215 00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:42,280 Speaker 2: certain ideals which we have never fully lived up to. 1216 00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:44,200 Speaker 2: But that is what it is. And I was thinking 1217 00:59:44,200 --> 00:59:46,600 Speaker 2: about this aur like, you're from Texas. Texas is a 1218 00:59:46,680 --> 00:59:50,760 Speaker 2: majority minority state. Does it feel like it's not American? 1219 00:59:50,920 --> 00:59:54,040 Speaker 2: Does it feel like it's been you know, destroyed? In fact, 1220 00:59:54,080 --> 00:59:58,240 Speaker 2: it still votes very conservatively and the you know populations 1221 00:59:58,280 --> 01:00:01,640 Speaker 2: that are there are you know, very into integrated into 1222 01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:06,360 Speaker 2: American society, et cetera. I just, you know, it's disgusting 1223 01:00:06,360 --> 01:00:08,400 Speaker 2: and it's cruel and it leads to horrific things. So 1224 01:00:08,440 --> 01:00:10,080 Speaker 2: I don't want to downplay it, but I also want 1225 01:00:10,080 --> 01:00:14,400 Speaker 2: to say, like, you're not getting your you know, white's 1226 01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:18,800 Speaker 2: only country that's it's not happening. You're not getting your 1227 01:00:19,040 --> 01:00:21,720 Speaker 2: repeal the Nineteenth Amendment because we don't like the way 1228 01:00:21,760 --> 01:00:22,680 Speaker 2: the women are voting. 1229 01:00:22,960 --> 01:00:23,920 Speaker 4: It's not happening. 1230 01:00:24,360 --> 01:00:27,200 Speaker 2: It's childish to pretend that this is like a real 1231 01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:30,440 Speaker 2: outcome that you're going to be able to effectuate. 1232 01:00:30,840 --> 01:00:34,680 Speaker 4: So in any case, long way of saying. 1233 01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:37,600 Speaker 3: I'm looking at Archexas, I didn't realize actually that it 1234 01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:40,920 Speaker 3: has fully flipped. So it's forty percent Latino, forty percent 1235 01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:44,360 Speaker 3: non Hispanic white, such a funny term, twelve percent black 1236 01:00:44,360 --> 01:00:47,120 Speaker 3: and five to six percent Asian, one percent Native American, 1237 01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:47,680 Speaker 3: and then three. 1238 01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:50,720 Speaker 2: It was like six sixty percent I mean percent minority. 1239 01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:53,520 Speaker 1: I was growing up there, Yeah, I knew a lot 1240 01:00:53,560 --> 01:00:54,080 Speaker 1: of guys who were. 1241 01:00:54,200 --> 01:00:56,600 Speaker 3: But see, that's kind of my point is that looking 1242 01:00:56,600 --> 01:00:59,360 Speaker 3: at things overtly racially is gross, Like that's not the 1243 01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:00,880 Speaker 3: point a truly about it at all. 1244 01:01:00,920 --> 01:01:03,040 Speaker 1: And that's fine if people want to do that. 1245 01:01:03,080 --> 01:01:04,440 Speaker 3: Again, I don't think it's going to work out for you, 1246 01:01:04,480 --> 01:01:07,160 Speaker 3: and I don't think it's necessarily correct. It's also just 1247 01:01:07,760 --> 01:01:12,120 Speaker 3: the way that you try to back engineer like greatness 1248 01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:17,160 Speaker 3: and let's say officially tied let's say to racialism is 1249 01:01:17,440 --> 01:01:19,840 Speaker 3: not one which first of all, like you just said, 1250 01:01:19,880 --> 01:01:22,760 Speaker 3: you're going to get the outcomes that you want us explicitly, 1251 01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:25,600 Speaker 3: because a lot of it is just like LARPing. But 1252 01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:28,800 Speaker 3: two also really ignores I mean this, you know, we 1253 01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:31,120 Speaker 3: were talking about this. Remember if the Fuenttez Pierce thing. 1254 01:01:31,160 --> 01:01:33,960 Speaker 3: I'm like, yeah, it would be insane to go back 1255 01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:36,880 Speaker 3: and to tell real Heritage Americans that some of the 1256 01:01:36,960 --> 01:01:40,760 Speaker 3: vanguard of their cause would be Italian Catholics. That would 1257 01:01:40,800 --> 01:01:44,000 Speaker 3: be unthinkable, literally unthinkable. They would be like, first of all, 1258 01:01:44,040 --> 01:01:46,200 Speaker 3: a person's not white and they're godless. 1259 01:01:46,040 --> 01:01:47,720 Speaker 1: That's how they used to think about. 1260 01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:51,040 Speaker 3: In fact, I would remind everyone when real Heritage Americans 1261 01:01:51,040 --> 01:01:54,880 Speaker 3: got the chance to enforce immigration policy and to vote 1262 01:01:54,920 --> 01:01:58,120 Speaker 3: an election, they explicitly rejected a guy named al Smith 1263 01:01:58,160 --> 01:02:00,240 Speaker 3: because he was a Catholic, and there were carts tunes 1264 01:02:00,280 --> 01:02:03,959 Speaker 3: about Romanism across the entire country, and they shut down 1265 01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:07,800 Speaker 3: immigration for like forty five years because they were sick 1266 01:02:07,880 --> 01:02:09,040 Speaker 3: of a bunch of in. 1267 01:02:09,000 --> 01:02:11,640 Speaker 1: Their words, non white Irish. 1268 01:02:11,200 --> 01:02:14,600 Speaker 3: And Italians and Slovenians coming into the country and dirtying 1269 01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:14,920 Speaker 3: it up. 1270 01:02:15,000 --> 01:02:16,640 Speaker 1: That's what they thought about. 1271 01:02:17,080 --> 01:02:20,560 Speaker 3: So I'm like, I mean, it's just ridiculous to see 1272 01:02:20,560 --> 01:02:23,880 Speaker 3: people who are the descendants of those people then claim 1273 01:02:24,120 --> 01:02:26,080 Speaker 3: you know that. I mean, it's fine. Look, you can 1274 01:02:26,120 --> 01:02:28,040 Speaker 3: say your ancestors have been here long. 1275 01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:28,920 Speaker 1: That's fine. 1276 01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:30,720 Speaker 3: You could say that you know longer than me. I 1277 01:02:30,760 --> 01:02:35,320 Speaker 3: don't necessarily think cast and bloodlines should be one that 1278 01:02:35,360 --> 01:02:38,760 Speaker 3: we should determine our tear in society. In fact, I'm sorry, 1279 01:02:38,800 --> 01:02:41,000 Speaker 3: I'm going along, but I feel strongly about this because 1280 01:02:41,280 --> 01:02:44,280 Speaker 3: my family is from a culture of India, right, and 1281 01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:47,440 Speaker 3: Indian culture is heavily They don't want to admit it, 1282 01:02:47,480 --> 01:02:50,560 Speaker 3: but it's true, is heavily cast based, which is not 1283 01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:54,680 Speaker 3: something that you can control. The most old world bullshit 1284 01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:57,440 Speaker 3: in the world is the idea that because of who 1285 01:02:57,480 --> 01:03:00,840 Speaker 3: your grandfather was or what you were born into, should 1286 01:03:00,840 --> 01:03:03,000 Speaker 3: determine the fate of your entire life. 1287 01:03:03,240 --> 01:03:03,400 Speaker 1: Right. 1288 01:03:03,440 --> 01:03:07,320 Speaker 3: That's almost an explicitly Western and American thing, which we 1289 01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:09,840 Speaker 3: say you leave that behind, you come here, and you 1290 01:03:09,880 --> 01:03:11,560 Speaker 3: embrace a certain set of ideals. 1291 01:03:11,600 --> 01:03:13,920 Speaker 1: I think that's great, you know, I really do. 1292 01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:16,280 Speaker 3: If anything, a lot of my criticism of some of 1293 01:03:16,320 --> 01:03:18,640 Speaker 3: the Indians here now currently is that they're not leaving 1294 01:03:18,680 --> 01:03:20,200 Speaker 3: a lot of that bullshit behind, and I. 1295 01:03:20,120 --> 01:03:20,840 Speaker 1: Think that they should. 1296 01:03:21,400 --> 01:03:24,400 Speaker 3: But yeah, I just you know, to see it renormalized 1297 01:03:24,840 --> 01:03:28,600 Speaker 3: more recently in an American context, which I have, you know, 1298 01:03:28,640 --> 01:03:31,120 Speaker 3: it's like, oh, my family's been here for four generations. 1299 01:03:31,120 --> 01:03:34,640 Speaker 3: I think that's phenomenal. I have a great veneration for 1300 01:03:34,760 --> 01:03:38,320 Speaker 3: all of our history. And you know, venerating that is fine, 1301 01:03:38,360 --> 01:03:41,520 Speaker 3: but you know, than to tear in terms of what 1302 01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:47,200 Speaker 3: that means explicitly for like who counts or not. You're like, well, 1303 01:03:47,360 --> 01:03:49,880 Speaker 3: and especially when we're talking about only citizens here, not 1304 01:03:49,960 --> 01:03:52,720 Speaker 3: even just people who are if we're talking not when 1305 01:03:52,720 --> 01:03:54,880 Speaker 3: we're talking about non citizens. We're talking about people who 1306 01:03:54,920 --> 01:03:59,800 Speaker 3: are explicit citizens of the United States of America. Yeah, 1307 01:03:59,800 --> 01:04:02,320 Speaker 3: I'm that just seems to me. You know, they people, 1308 01:04:02,480 --> 01:04:05,080 Speaker 3: these are the biggest critics of third world ism. That's 1309 01:04:05,080 --> 01:04:06,960 Speaker 3: the most third world bullshit that you can ever do. 1310 01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:10,160 Speaker 3: It really is great point. And I tell you this 1311 01:04:10,200 --> 01:04:12,520 Speaker 3: to someone whose parents are from the Third World. When 1312 01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:14,800 Speaker 3: I go over there and you see the cast oh 1313 01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:18,200 Speaker 3: my god, it drives me nuts, nuts when people talk 1314 01:04:18,200 --> 01:04:21,680 Speaker 3: about cast and who's marrying who and oh that's violated. 1315 01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:24,960 Speaker 3: Oh my god, it repulses me. Repulses me. And so 1316 01:04:25,080 --> 01:04:27,520 Speaker 3: that's the last thing that we need over here. It's 1317 01:04:27,560 --> 01:04:31,360 Speaker 3: just very antiquated old world ideology, which but again it 1318 01:04:31,400 --> 01:04:34,320 Speaker 3: doesn't breeds. You know, white nationalists love to talk about 1319 01:04:34,480 --> 01:04:36,600 Speaker 3: India's you know, all failed problems. 1320 01:04:36,960 --> 01:04:37,720 Speaker 1: I blame that. 1321 01:04:37,720 --> 01:04:39,520 Speaker 3: That's a big part of the reason why is the 1322 01:04:39,560 --> 01:04:42,560 Speaker 3: explicit class culture same in the UK, they have huge 1323 01:04:42,560 --> 01:04:45,680 Speaker 3: class problems about ascendency and the ability to do it. 1324 01:04:45,760 --> 01:04:48,680 Speaker 3: Let's leave it all behind people. But yeah, that's just 1325 01:04:48,720 --> 01:04:50,200 Speaker 3: one man's vision of the world. 1326 01:04:50,440 --> 01:04:53,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was thinking, I responded, I was kind of trolling, 1327 01:04:53,800 --> 01:04:55,200 Speaker 2: but I mean not what I said, But I was 1328 01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:57,680 Speaker 2: also kind of being intention provocative. On Twitter, someone shared 1329 01:04:57,720 --> 01:05:00,840 Speaker 2: this like, oh, whites were eighty percent nineteen twenty and 1330 01:05:00,920 --> 01:05:02,360 Speaker 2: or this percent now and blah blah blah, and I 1331 01:05:02,400 --> 01:05:03,600 Speaker 2: was thinking about that. I was like, what does that 1332 01:05:03,640 --> 01:05:06,080 Speaker 2: even mean, because the definition of white is not even 1333 01:05:06,080 --> 01:05:09,600 Speaker 2: the same over those years. Like in my own household 1334 01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:13,120 Speaker 2: in nineteen twenty, I am literally the only person in 1335 01:05:13,160 --> 01:05:15,160 Speaker 2: my household that would be considered white. 1336 01:05:15,360 --> 01:05:18,480 Speaker 4: So like, so much of this is just meaningless garbage anyway, 1337 01:05:18,520 --> 01:05:19,480 Speaker 4: But in any. 1338 01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:22,959 Speaker 2: Case, obviously it has yea like see the miller who's 1339 01:05:23,040 --> 01:05:25,320 Speaker 2: leading a bunch of this bullshit, Like when his family 1340 01:05:25,360 --> 01:05:27,760 Speaker 2: came over here, they were not considered white as they were, 1341 01:05:27,840 --> 01:05:31,680 Speaker 2: you know, Jewish refugees from what is now Belarus, and 1342 01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:34,080 Speaker 2: yet you think that you know, this should be some 1343 01:05:34,280 --> 01:05:36,880 Speaker 2: blood and soil white at no nationalists you're leading this 1344 01:05:36,960 --> 01:05:39,919 Speaker 2: White's only refugee policy anyway, I find it. I find 1345 01:05:39,960 --> 01:05:43,560 Speaker 2: it disgusting, I find it counterproductive. I find it fundamentally 1346 01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:46,400 Speaker 2: anti American, And I also think that as a project 1347 01:05:46,400 --> 01:05:49,360 Speaker 2: to doom to fail. And these people have convinced themselves 1348 01:05:49,600 --> 01:05:52,040 Speaker 2: that the American people agree with them, and I think 1349 01:05:52,080 --> 01:05:54,840 Speaker 2: that that is wrong. In fact, I think, to your point, Sager, 1350 01:05:55,160 --> 01:05:58,520 Speaker 2: what we saw in the backlash to Woke and the 1351 01:05:58,720 --> 01:06:03,240 Speaker 2: identitarian excess of the left is proof that the American 1352 01:06:03,280 --> 01:06:07,560 Speaker 2: people really do believe in like aspiring to that colorblind 1353 01:06:08,040 --> 01:06:11,280 Speaker 2: vision at core. They like that idea and that concept 1354 01:06:11,320 --> 01:06:12,160 Speaker 2: of I think so too. 1355 01:06:12,240 --> 01:06:12,439 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1356 01:06:12,440 --> 01:06:16,040 Speaker 3: I mean, if anything, overtly kind of embracing any of 1357 01:06:16,080 --> 01:06:19,480 Speaker 3: this is the worst possible argument you could ever make 1358 01:06:19,920 --> 01:06:24,440 Speaker 3: about at least again, just one man's opinion. But I've 1359 01:06:24,440 --> 01:06:25,640 Speaker 3: taken a look at a lot of the polling, and 1360 01:06:25,680 --> 01:06:28,360 Speaker 3: I've thought a lot about what went wrong with immigration 1361 01:06:28,440 --> 01:06:32,720 Speaker 3: agenda here of the Trump administration, and I do genuinely 1362 01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:36,680 Speaker 3: think that so many people thought about a universalist language 1363 01:06:36,680 --> 01:06:40,920 Speaker 3: of control about their border and a very idea of 1364 01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:42,880 Speaker 3: we need to know who's in our country, it does 1365 01:06:42,920 --> 01:06:45,920 Speaker 3: seem unfair. Again, in my opinion, you can disagree that 1366 01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:48,120 Speaker 3: people get to come here illegally and just work and 1367 01:06:48,720 --> 01:06:50,640 Speaker 3: just decide that they get to stay here. 1368 01:06:50,680 --> 01:06:52,200 Speaker 1: I think that's wrong. I think a lot of people 1369 01:06:52,440 --> 01:06:53,040 Speaker 1: agreed with that. 1370 01:06:53,440 --> 01:06:56,720 Speaker 3: However, however, and this is what people don't seem to understand. 1371 01:06:56,960 --> 01:07:00,960 Speaker 3: When you enacted in a way which has been described 1372 01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:04,800 Speaker 3: as performative cruelty, which you know, it probably hits it 1373 01:07:04,840 --> 01:07:08,440 Speaker 3: a little bit on the nose, but when you also pairrot, 1374 01:07:08,720 --> 01:07:11,840 Speaker 3: let's say, with racial language, which is now more increasingly popular, 1375 01:07:11,880 --> 01:07:14,480 Speaker 3: not just from the government necessarily, but from a lot 1376 01:07:14,520 --> 01:07:17,560 Speaker 3: of the commentariat, and it becomes to be viewed as 1377 01:07:17,600 --> 01:07:21,520 Speaker 3: that way that is not the same as the universalist 1378 01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:25,640 Speaker 3: kind of idea of control which led many Latino Americans, 1379 01:07:25,760 --> 01:07:28,640 Speaker 3: Asian Americans. You know, this is one of the most 1380 01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:32,520 Speaker 3: non white Republican coalitions in American history, which I think 1381 01:07:32,600 --> 01:07:36,160 Speaker 3: Libs should sit with right about what that means, also 1382 01:07:36,520 --> 01:07:38,880 Speaker 3: about who can and come in with that. But it 1383 01:07:38,880 --> 01:07:43,120 Speaker 3: can also be something that falls apart whenever it's enacted 1384 01:07:43,200 --> 01:07:46,160 Speaker 3: or at least viewed necessarily in this way. So I 1385 01:07:46,200 --> 01:07:48,040 Speaker 3: know we went very off track, and I'm sorry, but 1386 01:07:48,360 --> 01:07:50,520 Speaker 3: I do think it's important. I do think it's important 1387 01:07:50,520 --> 01:07:53,200 Speaker 3: for people to kind of understand the broader motivations about 1388 01:07:53,360 --> 01:07:56,800 Speaker 3: all this topic of Islam. And I'm not some big 1389 01:07:56,840 --> 01:08:00,120 Speaker 3: defender of Islamic culture. I don't want it, don't like it, 1390 01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:03,760 Speaker 3: had lived underneath it, hated it. But I'm also not 1391 01:08:03,840 --> 01:08:06,640 Speaker 3: a dupe to see what this exactly this is being 1392 01:08:06,720 --> 01:08:09,640 Speaker 3: used for right now, and that's why I would say 1393 01:08:09,760 --> 01:08:11,720 Speaker 3: everybody's eyes should be a little bit open right now
