Speaker 1: Countdown with Keith Olderman is a production of iHeartRadio. Hitler
Speaker 1: exploited the Reichstag fire, and the Republicans want to exploit
Speaker 1: the LA fire. Mass deportation meets mass stupidity as Trump
Speaker 1: already pre fails again, and I wonder if Elon Musk
Speaker 1: understands that MAGA now plans to kill him and eat him.
Speaker 1: MAGA in disarray. Well, the mass deportation scheme becomes the
Speaker 1: latest casualty of having elected a bunch of incompetent egomaniacs.
Speaker 1: The only things they are hands on about being their
Speaker 1: own dicks. Steve Bannon has declared war on Elon Musk,
Speaker 1: and on Elon Musk, Tody David Sachs, and on Peter Tiel.
Speaker 1: The point isn't whether Bannon still has a tenth of
Speaker 1: the sway he used to have among the fascists. The
Speaker 1: point is is less than a tenth of these slime
Speaker 1: is the angry, violent tenth, and Bannon has escalated his
Speaker 1: war on Musk over those h one b visus. Bannon
Speaker 1: doesn't just want Musk exiled from the White House. Because
Speaker 1: Bannon and the rest of the nativist lunatics hate all foreigners.
Speaker 1: And Musk wants to not hate foreigners who can make
Speaker 1: him more rich. Bannon now wants Musk and the others
Speaker 1: to be the first immigrants thrown out of the country.
Speaker 1: He actually told this to Italy's most read newspaper, Corriere
Speaker 1: de la Sala, which is not one of the newspapers
Speaker 1: Mussolini owned, but it did give out the Mussolini Prize,
Speaker 1: and all this must have been Bannon's entry to the
Speaker 1: judges in the Mussolini Prize. I am quoting, believe it
Speaker 1: or not, Brightbart's coverage of this well, because well, the
Speaker 1: New York Times headline would have been Bannon praises minorities.
Speaker 1: Steve Bannon, I will do anything to keep Elon Musk
Speaker 1: out of the White House. Rome Former Breitbart News executive
Speaker 1: chairman Steve Bannon has declared war on Elon Musk, vowing
Speaker 1: to have the tech billionaire kicked out of the White
Speaker 1: House by the time Trump is inaugurated. Quote. I will
Speaker 1: have Elon Musk run out of here by inauguration day.
Speaker 1: He will not have a blue pass to the White House.
Speaker 1: He will not have full access to the White House.
Speaker 1: He will be like any other person. He is a
Speaker 1: truly evil guy, a very bad guy. I made it
Speaker 1: my personal thing to take this guy down before because
Speaker 1: he put money in I was prepared to tolerate it.
Speaker 1: I am not prepared to tolerate it anymore. Wait, there's more.
Speaker 1: This thing of the H one B visas. It's about
Speaker 1: the entire immigration system is gained by the tech overlords.
Speaker 1: They use it to their advantage. The people are furious.
Speaker 1: Seventy six percent of engineers working in Silicon Valley are
Speaker 1: non Americans. No Blacks or Hispanics have any of these
Speaker 1: jobs or any access to these jobs. Peter Teel, David Sachs,
Speaker 1: Evon musk are all white South Africans. He should go
Speaker 1: back to South Africa. Why do we have South Africans
Speaker 1: the most racist people on earth? White South Africans. We
Speaker 1: have them making any comments at all on what goes
Speaker 1: on in the United States unquote, ah, so trouble in
Speaker 1: Maga Paradise. Well it's Maga so trouble in Maga Hell.
Speaker 1: It does not matter whether or not Bannon succeeds in
Speaker 1: kneecamping Muskets that he tries and that we help, because
Speaker 1: a week before the inauguration and the entirety of the
Speaker 1: machinery of the rage fire that fuels Maga hatred of immigrants,
Speaker 1: especially of Hispanics. But anybody will do. Look, Bannon just
Speaker 1: hit South Africans. The entirety of that machinery has already
Speaker 1: broken down repeatedly. First it was the blowback against Musk
Speaker 1: and those specialty visas and remarks by Vivek Ramaswami Nitwit.
Speaker 1: Now CNN reports that the borders are this cartoon villain.
Speaker 1: Tom Homan has warned Republican lawmakers that, sorry, the initial
Speaker 1: deportation plan is not going to be like fifteen million
Speaker 1: people or whatever it is Trump said. And it's not
Speaker 1: going to be two million. It's not going to be
Speaker 1: one million. It's going to be more like the way
Speaker 1: we did math in my day. It's going to be
Speaker 1: more like sixty thousand people. You heard me. Highlights of
Speaker 1: a sourced story from CNN.
Speaker 2: Quote.
Speaker 1: Homan has privately told Republican lawmakers to temper their expectations
Speaker 1: for the incoming administration's initial deportation operation, citing limited resources.
Speaker 1: According to multiple sources involved in the conversations. Quote, we
Speaker 1: are not having a discussion about twenty million deportations. We
Speaker 1: are having a discussion about an order and priority and expectation.
Speaker 1: GOP Rep. Darryl Isa, who was in one of the
Speaker 1: meetings with Holman, said, quote, Holman has been telling some
Speaker 1: of the members that, hey, if you want me to
Speaker 1: do all these things that you're talking about, this costs money,
Speaker 1: and it's not being done with the cr continuing resolution
Speaker 1: that's in place now. One GOP lawmaker told CNN, now
Speaker 1: here is the math part. Quoting again, Holman said he
Speaker 1: would need a minimum of one hundred thousand beds to
Speaker 1: detain undocumented immigrants that would be in the prison camps,
Speaker 1: more than doubling the forty thousand detention beds ICE is
Speaker 1: currently funded for, and it would require more ICE agents.
Speaker 1: The agency has around six thousand Immigration enforcement officers. Quote.
Speaker 1: It all depends on the funding I get from the Hill,
Speaker 1: Holman said, So the increase in deportation from Biden levels,
Speaker 1: which the MAGA mad Men think is at least two
Speaker 1: million immediately before Trump finishes his speech next Monday, in fact,
Speaker 1: would be one hundred thousand minus forty thousand. That's sixty thousand.
Speaker 1: That's sixty thousand beds in the concentration camps now, depending
Speaker 1: on turnover in ten weeks, that could be six hundred
Speaker 1: thousand people moved in and out. Could be if deportations
Speaker 1: actually did anything more than ruined lives and spread fear
Speaker 1: and violence and destroy our economy and drive up the
Speaker 1: price of everything, if there was not a reasonable chance.
Speaker 1: But just like last time, they're not actually going to
Speaker 1: deport nearly anybody more than the average, because the point
Speaker 1: of the deportations is just to scare people about foreigners.
Speaker 1: You can't deport all the people who may or may
Speaker 1: not be here legally. They take all the cheap, crappy jobs,
Speaker 1: like sending food to all the rich Republicans. Maybe also
Speaker 1: the deportations were the fascists we met along the way.
Speaker 1: This funding that Tom Holman wants is supposed to take
Speaker 1: place as Doge cuts two trillion dollars in ways. Oh no,
Speaker 1: it's now down to one trillion. Maybe if Steve Bannon
Speaker 1: doesn't kill and eat Elon Musk. Musk has already dropped
Speaker 1: the number. He can only find one trillion to cut.
Speaker 1: He can't find his ass with both hands. So a
Speaker 1: week before the administration starts, a week before they even
Speaker 1: take office, and the Trump junta has already failed at
Speaker 1: day one mass roundup deportations. They've already failed and infuriated
Speaker 1: the fascists who voted with all three fingers to end
Speaker 1: legal immigration because Musk wants those h one b's because
Speaker 1: Ramaswami called natives dumb and lazy, and now Bannon is
Speaker 1: targeted Musk. The Trump junta has already confessed there is
Speaker 1: no way to unilaterally lower grocery prices, instance lear even
Speaker 1: non instantly. The universal tariffs aren't happening anytime soon. He's
Speaker 1: not going to dig up the Panama Canal and move
Speaker 1: it to Mari Lago on inauguration day. He ain't buying
Speaker 1: Greenland and coercing Canada. And guess what. He didn't settle
Speaker 1: Russia's war on Ukraine in twenty four hours before he
Speaker 1: even took office, and he won't be able to do
Speaker 1: it after he does. And what are Democrats doing with
Speaker 1: this all you can eat buffet of Trump pre failures.
Speaker 2: Nothing?
Speaker 1: And that's as big a problem as anything else you
Speaker 1: and I may want in America, in which we don't
Speaker 1: do to Republicans what they do to Democrats. Too bad
Speaker 1: for us. Our society, especially our media, is now like
Speaker 1: the Soviet Union in the nineteen sixties, when everything that
Speaker 1: happened bad in America from a delayed space launch to
Speaker 1: the nineteen sixty five Northeast blackout was declared by the
Speaker 1: Russian Propaganda Office, tasks to be the fault of decadent capitalism.
Speaker 1: Forty years ago, the Republicans perfected a very simple formula,
Speaker 1: an American version of tasks. Whatever happens, claim credit for it,
Speaker 1: or blame the Democrats for it, or both. Fill in
Speaker 1: the details. Later somebody will think of something, and we
Speaker 1: have to play the same stupid game, especially since Republican
Speaker 1: failures are so plentiful, Republican brains are so rare, and
Speaker 1: usually it really is their fault. No backfilling imagination required.
Speaker 1: I don't mean do it one hundred percent of the time.
Speaker 1: MAGA and the GOP really are selling the idea that
Speaker 1: the southern California fire disasters don't indicate in the slightest
Speaker 1: the burgeoning atmospheric catastrophe, but instead are all Gavin Newsom's fault.
Speaker 1: More on this in a moment. But why aren't Democrats
Speaker 1: blaming the wildfires on Trump's first presidency and the undermine
Speaker 1: of forestry services and National parklands and environmental protections? Is
Speaker 1: it true? In part? It is true? Does it matter? No,
Speaker 1: it doesn't. The formula is simple. A something happens, b
Speaker 1: blame Trump for it. C figure out exactly why later,
Speaker 1: d if any of it sticks, figure out more reasons
Speaker 1: why it's his fault. Brian Boiler writes on his site, quote, First,
Speaker 1: do not help Republicans, not in any way on any issue.
Speaker 1: Republicans can't pass a budget or raise the debt sealing
Speaker 1: tough luck. Do not provide them any bailout votes on
Speaker 1: any issue period the end. Second, make Donald Trump own
Speaker 1: every bad outcome that happens anywhere in the world, while
Speaker 1: paying special attention to areas where Republicans are particularly vulnerable,
Speaker 1: like housing and Ukraine.
Speaker 2: Starters.
Speaker 1: Trump has set up impossible expectations. He promised to end
Speaker 1: the war in twenty four hours starting on January twenty second.
Speaker 1: Democrats should ask every day why the war is still ongoing?
Speaker 1: Unquote Gabby Boyler is right. And then there's the easy stuff.
Speaker 2: JD.
Speaker 1: Vance has announced he is attending college football's national championship
Speaker 1: game in New Orleans a week from today. Wait a
Speaker 1: week from today, a week from today. Why that's a
Speaker 1: week from today. Isn't that a week from today? Isn't
Speaker 1: that the inauguration? I mean the game is at night,
Speaker 1: but he still would be sworn in and then leave
Speaker 1: Washington immediately to go watch an fing football game. What
Speaker 1: would the Republicans have done with a vice president Tim Walls?
Speaker 1: If he did that, they would have beaten him up
Speaker 1: non stop, starting an hour from now and ending never
Speaker 1: get to work. Who's paying your salary? Vice President Walls? Instead,
Speaker 1: Vance gets to preempt the criticism by going to hyperbole.
Speaker 1: Quote hopefully everyone is cool with me skipping the inauguration,
Speaker 1: Beard Ough wrote, so I can go to the national
Speaker 1: title game. Ha ha ha. So so witty, But seriously, what
Speaker 1: would the Republicans have done with that? Tim Walls is
Speaker 1: so irresponsible. He's not only making you pay his salary
Speaker 1: while he goes to watch a football game, he's mocking
Speaker 1: you for criticizing government waste.
Speaker 2: JD.
Speaker 1: Vance should be known from next Monday through the end
Speaker 1: of his life as the vice president who, on the
Speaker 1: day of his inauguration went to a goddamned college football game.
Speaker 1: This should be repeated so often that people who live
Speaker 1: and die for college football should be ashamed of JD.
Speaker 1: Vans for doing this. Who is saying any of this?
Speaker 1: I like that sound of my own voice too. I'm
Speaker 1: not sufficient in this.
Speaker 2: JD.
Speaker 1: Vance is leaving as his first act as Vice President
Speaker 1: Washington to go sit in the stands and waive a
Speaker 1: little banner that says, Ohio State, it is our one
Speaker 1: chance of survival. They are all that stupid Tulsey Gabbard.
Speaker 1: Her nomination as Director of National Lack of Personal Intelligence
Speaker 1: was foundering because firstly, she is an idiot. Secondly because
Speaker 1: all the Republican intel hawks like Senator James Langford, were
Speaker 1: dismayed by her previous doubts about section seven oh two
Speaker 1: of the FISA Act. That is, the section that lets
Speaker 1: us eavesdrop on non Americans outside the country, even if
Speaker 1: they happen to be talking Americans in the country, like
Speaker 1: just to pick a name at random Trump. Eight years ago,
Speaker 1: section seven zero two was the end times among MAGA.
Speaker 1: Now Langford and other Republicans are willing to throw Telsey
Speaker 1: Gabbard under the bus, which could do no damage to her,
Speaker 1: especially if it hit her hair over section seven oh two.
Speaker 1: Mandatory support of seven oh two. Telsey no like Langford
Speaker 1: of the others, none too subtly told her skunk hairedness
Speaker 1: to get with the program or not get confirmed, and
Speaker 1: Friday she endorsed section seven oh two, and Langford then
Speaker 1: endorsed her She's going to be Director of National Intelligence
Speaker 1: and a totally poor advertisement for her own department. As
Speaker 1: to Pete Hegseth's nomination, I don't know a lot of
Speaker 1: play was given to the story that he was in
Speaker 1: trouble because the FBI was interviewing everybody he ever met,
Speaker 1: But we want that that's what the FBI didn't do
Speaker 1: with Drunkie Kavanaugh. I don't think the interviews mean anything, unless,
Speaker 1: of course, the FBI finds something anything, any of the
Speaker 1: hundred things the rumor mills contend and continue to contend,
Speaker 1: he might have done. Now to the Republicans and the
Speaker 1: increasingly evident truth that the MAGA fascists are trying to
Speaker 1: take the disaster in southern California and build it into
Speaker 1: a new template for conditioning government disaster relief on political compliance.
Speaker 1: Exploiting a fire, where have we seen that before? And no,
Speaker 1: I don't think the Republicans set the LA fires, but
Speaker 1: I do always shudder at the memory of the nineteen
Speaker 1: eighty two Boston arson nightmare, in which three cops, two firemen,
Speaker 1: and some of their friends set at least one one
Speaker 1: hundred and sixty three fires in Boston and environs in
Speaker 1: hopes of preventing cuts to the police and fire departments.
Speaker 1: Don't say it's impossible, because it happened back in the
Speaker 1: good old days. I also shuddered the other day when
Speaker 1: I saw a climate change expert on the BBC explaining
Speaker 1: that such an obvious and catastrophic disaster as this continuing
Speaker 1: hell on Earth, which may well continue through the end
Speaker 1: of this month, always awakens the doubters in a nation
Speaker 1: to the reality of atmospheric crisis and climate change. And
Speaker 1: I thought, you, poor bastard, you don't realize it. But
Speaker 1: what three out of every ten Americans, maybe four, maybe
Speaker 1: five have already been hypnotized by the Republicans and the
Speaker 1: media into thinking that southern California burned because it became
Speaker 1: too woke. The Republicans, including that idiot who a week
Speaker 1: from today will be Vice President of the United States,
Speaker 1: are making up, fabricating, misleading, lying, lying and lying blaming
Speaker 1: a literal firestorm like the ones in Dresden in World
Speaker 1: War two on. The Democrats and their cult members are
Speaker 1: happy to believe because the idea is just as stupid
Speaker 1: as they are, and it boils over with the confirmation
Speaker 1: bias that is their mother's milk, and it allows them
Speaker 1: to continue to live in denial of the fact that someday,
Speaker 1: soon a metropolitan area in a red state will be
Speaker 1: erased by a natural disaster, even after Trump sinks into
Speaker 1: Moses like hallucinations and holds up his hand and claims
Speaker 1: he can stop that tornado or that hurricane or those
Speaker 1: floods simply by using the force of his superior mind
Speaker 1: and a Bible, a Trump brand Bible, obviously, Vance, who
Speaker 1: really is just a urine specimen jar with a beard,
Speaker 1: and both of them full quote. Some of these reservoirs
Speaker 1: have been dry for fifteen twenty years. The fire hydrants
Speaker 1: are being reported as going dry while the firefighters are
Speaker 1: trying to put out the fires. There was a serious
Speaker 1: lack of competent governance in California. It's part of the
Speaker 1: reason why these fires have gotten so bad. No, it
Speaker 1: is an asshole, a complete lie, utter, unmoored, uncaring. If
Speaker 1: it were under oath, Vance would be going to prison
Speaker 1: for perjury. Lie, stick to trying to successfully navigate going
Speaker 1: to a football game, you moron, Reality is too difficult
Speaker 1: for you to deal with. JV Vance and then their
Speaker 1: Senator Bill Haggerty of Tennessee, who is as phony as
Speaker 1: his jet black hair when he is just seven months
Speaker 1: younger than I am, whose biggest accomplishment in public service
Speaker 1: to date has to be to bring a soccer team
Speaker 1: to Nashville, Bill Haggerty yesterday, that failure of leadership in
Speaker 1: California that's been egregious, whether it's Gavin Newsom prioritizing a
Speaker 1: fish over his citizens, or a leader like Karen Bass
Speaker 1: who prioritizes DEI initiatives over the readiness of first responders.
Speaker 1: It's pathetic. What's happened here. None of that happened Grecian
Speaker 1: formula boy, But go on, tell me more about your
Speaker 1: area of expertise, being pathetic. Before we put funds into place,
Speaker 1: we've got to find out exactly how we're going to
Speaker 1: hold these leaders accountable and what sort of policy changes
Speaker 1: are required there. It is, there's the Reichstag Fires style
Speaker 1: exploitation I referenced earlier. You and I being human beings.
Speaker 1: We see southern California and viscerally feel the pain and
Speaker 1: loss and fear as certainly as if it were bad
Speaker 1: weather going through trailer parks. Somewhere, the Maga robohumans see
Speaker 1: only opportunity. Trump merely dipped his toe in these waters
Speaker 1: last time, more correctly, had somebody do it for him.
Speaker 1: He can't really move his toes on his own. But
Speaker 1: this is a preview from Senator Haggerty. Hold the leaders
Speaker 1: accountable and policy changes required. Those are fascists, speak cliches
Speaker 1: for use public anger and panic to attempt to prosecute
Speaker 1: Democrats when disasters unfold, and to demand political fealty to
Speaker 1: Trump and the Republicans before aid is given by the government. Now,
Speaker 1: this will lead us down a path where eventually the
Speaker 1: resistance will have to cut off Blue state funds to
Speaker 1: the federal regime. Whether that's done by the states themselves
Speaker 1: or an a taxpayer strike, I don't know we will
Speaker 1: get there. It is now inevitable if they actually try
Speaker 1: to hold back funds in California, California will simply respond
Speaker 1: in kind. It is unavoidable. I don't know if it'll
Speaker 1: take a year to get to this point, or it'll
Speaker 1: take one hundred years. But this is the route by
Speaker 1: which the United States of America dissolves, not a civil war,
Speaker 1: not violence, simply the states that have money and resources
Speaker 1: saying we're not carrying you assholes anymore. But before that happens,
Speaker 1: here's more haggardy and more somewhat comforting Republican incompetence. Quote
Speaker 1: when Vivek Ramaswami and Elon must take a hard look
Speaker 1: at how we effectively deploy resources here, we're going to
Speaker 1: have to see some very real changes. Elon Elon, who
Speaker 1: poor Haggarty is not in the Inner Party. He does
Speaker 1: not know of Bannon's plan to make Musk the first
Speaker 1: immigrant to be deported, but he does inadvertently raise a
Speaker 1: philosophical and moral questions. Not that the Haggartys of this
Speaker 1: world think about those questions anymore. But it is simply this.
Speaker 1: If you were Elon Musk, worth four hundred and sixteen
Speaker 1: billion dollars and rising, what would you do with this choice?
Speaker 1: You could spend forty four billion dollars to buy Twitter,
Speaker 1: never get any of that money back, by the way,
Speaker 1: and start a laborrinthine heavy lift. All work, no fund,
Speaker 1: bad Bond movie plot to gain more power and more money.
Speaker 1: For some reason, you need more money, as if four
Speaker 1: hundred and sixteen billion can't buy you all the ketamen
Speaker 1: in the world, you could spend forty four billion on that.
Speaker 1: Or you could spend forty four billion and personally give
Speaker 1: fifty thousand dollars to eight hundred and eighty thousand different
Speaker 1: people in southern California to help them rebuild their lives,
Speaker 1: and oh, by the way, to buy yourself unassailable goodwill
Speaker 1: and even worship for all time. Those are your choices.
Speaker 1: Why would you do the labyrinthine heavy lift bad Bond
Speaker 1: movie plot instead of the charity which if you had
Speaker 1: four hundred and sixteen billion would you choose. The correct answer,
Speaker 1: of course, is both, because three hundred and twenty eight
Speaker 1: billion dollars would still be the most in the world,
Speaker 1: and in fact, you could throw another one hundred billion
Speaker 1: into the ocean of gofundmes in Southern California and your
Speaker 1: wallet would never ever know the difference. As I've already referenced,
Speaker 1: we are living in the gotcha times, the whining times.
Speaker 1: Never mind solving a problem or putting out a fire,
Speaker 1: exploit the problem and point at the fire and tell
Speaker 1: the mora on who is to blame for the fire.
Speaker 1: And this is being exacerbated by the accelerating media crisis.
Speaker 1: You have a fire in LA. You got a fire
Speaker 1: at the New York Times? Did the Times merge with
Speaker 1: the onion and not tell anybody? I'll just quote this
Speaker 1: piece by a man named Santul Nrkar, which was apparently
Speaker 1: intended as media criticism but wound up unintentionally becoming the
Speaker 1: New York Times criticizing the New York Times quote. How
Speaker 1: outlets on the left and right have covered the Los
Speaker 1: Angeles wildfires. Media outlets reported similarly on the destruction caused
Speaker 1: by the fires that raced through southern California, but partisan
Speaker 1: publications attributed them to very different causes. Ah so it's
Speaker 1: partisan publications. We're gonna have democratic underground here right. As
Speaker 1: deadly wildfires raged across southern California this week, conservative and
Speaker 1: liberal media outlets reported similarly on the law devastation, but
Speaker 1: found vastly different culprits for it. Right wing outlets blamed
Speaker 1: much of the devastation on Democrats. They assailed the political
Speaker 1: leadership of California, which is heavily democratic, They also blamed
Speaker 1: the destruction on diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives undertaken in
Speaker 1: Los Angeles. Liberal outlets criticized President elect Donald J. Trump's
Speaker 1: reaction to the fires, which they described as insensitive. Some
Speaker 1: attributed the intensity of the fires to climate change. Where
Speaker 1: did they get such as stupid ideas?
Speaker 2: That?
Speaker 1: Back to the timespiece? Breitbart, the conservative website, ran more
Speaker 1: than a half dozen headlines on its homepage that criticized
Speaker 1: Mayor Bass on Thursday, including one that referred to her
Speaker 1: as missing an action in Africa while her city burned.
Speaker 1: Another claimed she knew of the fire risk before leaving
Speaker 1: for Ghana. The left wing news sites are MSNBC and Salon.
Speaker 1: Those are the ones The New York Times sites. Salon,
Speaker 1: Salon is still there. Solon owes me money from columns
Speaker 1: from two thousand and three, there's still in business. Call me,
Speaker 1: you owe me money, You owe me money. But their
Speaker 1: equivalents in the arrogance bubble in which The New York
Speaker 1: Times exists, MSNBC and Salon. Their parallels through the looking
Speaker 1: glass are The Daily Wire and Breitbart. The Daily Wire
Speaker 1: and Breitbart are fascist propaganda sites. I mean New York
Speaker 1: Times you couldn't get Russia at RT and North Korea
Speaker 1: nightly news in there instead, or at least work in
Speaker 1: something about Mark Zuckerberg as the new leading right wing propagandist.
Speaker 1: Turns out, before he turned Meta into Maga, he went
Speaker 1: to Musclago to pledge fealty in person from Semaphore News.
Speaker 1: Meta CEO Zuckerberg met with Trump at Mari Lago on Friday.
Speaker 1: A source familiar with their encounter confirmed a Semaphore he'd
Speaker 1: been spotted earlier at Trump's Florida compound, and the person
Speaker 1: familiar with the meeting and a Trump aid both declined
Speaker 1: to detail its contents. The visit comes just days after
Speaker 1: Zuckerberg announced sweeping changes at the company that ended two
Speaker 1: irritants to Trump and his supporters, fact checking programs and diversity,
Speaker 1: equity and inclusion initiatives. The new metapolicy also relaxes restrictions
Speaker 1: on speech. Zuckerberg said in a video announcing the shift
Speaker 1: that the changes came amid too many mistakes and too
Speaker 1: much censorship and too much time at the hair salon.
Speaker 1: Then Zuckerberg went on with Joe Rogan, the artist formerly
Speaker 1: known as Uncle Fester, and lamented the rise of culturally
Speaker 1: newted companies that have sought to distance themselves from masculine energy,
Speaker 1: adding that it's good if the culture celebrates the aggression
Speaker 1: a bit more. No, No, it's the same Mark Zuckerberg
Speaker 1: talking talking about masculinity.
Speaker 3: I think it's another to basically say that masculinity is bad.
Speaker 3: And I just think we kind of swung culturally to
Speaker 3: that part of the kind of the spectrum where you know,
Speaker 3: it's all like, Okay, masculinity is toxic, we have to
Speaker 3: get rid of it completely. It's like, no, like, it's
Speaker 3: both of these things are good, right, It's like, you
Speaker 3: want like feminine energy, you want masculine energy. Like I
Speaker 3: think that that's like you're going to have parts of
Speaker 3: society that have more of one or the other. I
Speaker 3: think that that's all good. But I do think the
Speaker 3: corporate culture sort of had swung towards being this somewhat
Speaker 3: more near dird thing.
Speaker 1: So it's Zuckerberg going on Joe Uncle Fester Rogan and
Speaker 1: talking masculinity and digression and by the way, the word
Speaker 1: you wanted there was aggressiveness. Aggression is you know, usually violence,
Speaker 1: and Zuckerberg going on there wearing his new perm that
Speaker 1: looks like the one used by the Roman emperor Caligula.
Speaker 1: I think ringlets nineteen seventy seven. Ringlets. Oh, and on
Speaker 1: top of that, there was something else I can't quite convey.
Speaker 1: I hadn't been able to pin it down until just
Speaker 1: now when I watched the video of that clip again.
Speaker 1: Elizabeth Holmes, the farnose con woman with the fake voice,
Speaker 1: and Hank Fines the Third Force and the dead eyes,
Speaker 1: and Mark Zuckerberg with the fake voice and the dead eyes.
Speaker 1: Have we ever seen them in the same place at
Speaker 1: the same time. Ah, The role of Mark Zuckerberg will
Speaker 1: now be played by Elizabeth Holmes. Also of interest, here
Speaker 1: are we in Hell because of this reason, the formerly
Speaker 1: married couple David Shipley and Naomi Wolf. He's at the
Speaker 1: Washington Post forcing out prize winning political cartoonists and boasting
Speaker 1: about it. Now she's online insisting the planes spreading the
Speaker 1: fire suppressant over the fires aren't spreading fire suppressant. They're
Speaker 1: spreading I can't tell you, but you won't believe it. Now.
Speaker 1: That's a tease, And that's next. This is countdown. This
Speaker 1: is countdown, with Keith Olberman still ahead on countdown Southern
Speaker 1: California is a blaze and apparently will remain so. Compulsive
Speaker 1: liars will be sworn in to run the country into
Speaker 1: the ground in one week. There is not one rebel leader,
Speaker 1: or at least not one rebel leader who said anything
Speaker 1: of note in the last two months, except John Fetterman,
Speaker 1: who's gone over to the other side and thus desperately
Speaker 1: needs a stroke recheck. But I'm still going to make
Speaker 1: you smile with two words soccer breakdown ahead in things
Speaker 1: I promised not to tell. If you've never heard it,
Speaker 1: please enjoy. First, there are still more new idiots to
Speaker 1: talk about. The daily roundup of the mis grants, morons
Speaker 1: and Dunning Krueger effects specimens who constitute today's other worst
Speaker 1: persons in the world, The Bronze worse Joe Scybra Good God,
Speaker 1: has no one sent him the clippings from the newspapers,
Speaker 1: or any of the editorial blowback or any of the
Speaker 1: responses from his viewers and his regular guests. Joe Scarborough
Speaker 1: has now doubled down on the founding of MSNVS. He
Speaker 1: had an argument on the air with Michael Steele in
Speaker 1: which Michael Steele made sense, in fact, made all the
Speaker 1: sense in the argument, Scarborough went on the air and
Speaker 1: said that Obama's handshake with Trump ben their lighthearted conversation
Speaker 1: was not the end of the world at the Carter funeral,
Speaker 1: and no, it was not the end of the world.
Speaker 1: It was something Obama should never have done under any circumstances,
Speaker 1: because Trump is the blight on mankind who may erase
Speaker 1: all records of the Obama presidency when the world ends
Speaker 1: because of the crap Trump does. But it's not the
Speaker 1: end of the world at the moment. So he got
Speaker 1: into an argument Scarborough did, sort of defending Obama against
Speaker 1: Michael Steele, who raised again the point of Scarborough and
Speaker 1: missus Scarborough, this missus Scarborough heading to marri Lago and
Speaker 1: once again switching sides for the fifth sixth time on
Speaker 1: the issue of Trump going there and pledging fealty to
Speaker 1: the monster. Michael Steele said, why do we have to
Speaker 1: be sibyl to Trump? And then Scarborough denied somehow that
Speaker 1: he'd ever said we had to be sibyl, when of
Speaker 1: course he said, we had to open up a dialogue
Speaker 1: and we had to talk about not just talk about Trump,
Speaker 1: but talk to Trump. Scarborough is still rationalizing this Ordinarily
Speaker 1: I would look at this scenario, and knowing Joe Scarborough,
Speaker 1: I would assume he's being blackmailed. But Joe doesn't need
Speaker 1: to be blackmailed to perform services like this for fascists.
Speaker 1: He's done it his whole life. What he sees is
Speaker 1: which way the wind is blowing, and hopefully it's blowing
Speaker 1: him right off the roof. Runners up Politico this headline,
Speaker 1: along with an extraordinary picture of one firefighter trying to
Speaker 1: put out the blazes in California, seemingly all by himself.
Speaker 1: There's a bunch of palm trees on the left, There's
Speaker 1: a house. It is bright red inside the windows on
Speaker 1: the second floor above the garage, and there is one
Speaker 1: man holding a fire hose. And the graphic over this
Speaker 1: picture trump Comma mush unleash on California Democrats over wildfires. Mush,
Speaker 1: you know, elon mush. They deleted this picture and changed
Speaker 1: it on their website. Elon mush. Why'd they delete it?
Speaker 1: But our winner, Naomi wolf Funny I invoked her ex
Speaker 1: husband David Shipley last week. He is the opinion editor
Speaker 1: of the newly merged Washington Post and Penny Saber. He's
Speaker 1: the one who killed the Antellnay's cartoon on bezos kissing
Speaker 1: Trump's ass because it was repetitive, even though George Will
Speaker 1: has been writing the exact same opinion column in the
Speaker 1: Washington Post week after week since roughly April nineteen seventy four.
Speaker 1: And then Ann tel Nay's one of the many people
Speaker 1: to Washington Post who quit without another job lined up quit. Well,
Speaker 1: here is that guy's ex wife, Naomi Wolf, was, among
Speaker 1: other things, an adviser on al Gore's presidential campaign. And
Speaker 1: once again we find out these clues a quarter century
Speaker 1: later as to how in part we started on this
Speaker 1: path to this effing disaster, this America of twenty twenty five.
Speaker 1: And one of the clues was Naomi Wolf was an
Speaker 1: adviser on Al Gore's presidential campaign. She reportedly handled political
Speaker 1: issues and feminist issues and how Gore dressed. Sometime I
Speaker 1: will tell you about his other advisor who became his
Speaker 1: business partner, who was the man who actually hired me
Speaker 1: and gave me all the money to go to current TV.
Speaker 1: And his was the advice that throughout the two thousand campaign,
Speaker 1: al Gore needed to stay away from Bill Clinton, who
Speaker 1: was the most popular Democratic president since FDR. Anyway, back
Speaker 1: to Naomi Wolf, the last quarter century has not been
Speaker 1: kind to her. Her Twitter handle is now doctor Naomi Wolf,
Speaker 1: eight New York Times bestsellers. I wouldn't even do that.
Speaker 1: She has chimed in in her new way of finding
Speaker 1: something crazy that no one is being crazy about elsewhere?
Speaker 1: With this? Are your friends in LA not reacting to
Speaker 1: danger in an expected way? Are they almost in a trance?
Speaker 1: Multiple confirmations independently that suggests this is the case, including
Speaker 1: from a therapist who says her patients are not reacting normally. Well,
Speaker 1: that's it. Naomi Wolf knows a therapist who says this
Speaker 1: is true. Therefore it is true. Multiple confirmations that the
Speaker 1: entire Los Angeles and southern California community is not reacting
Speaker 1: normally to danger. This leads her, even though it's not true,
Speaker 1: to something even more not true. Could a mood stabilizer
Speaker 1: of some kind be in what was sprayed? Or do
Speaker 1: weather manipulation waves and train human thought patterns in some way?
Speaker 1: We are there in history and must ask the questions.
Speaker 1: Spoiler alert, we are not there in history, you, Naomi Wolf.
Speaker 1: You are there in history as a matter of fact,
Speaker 1: what you are in is not history. It's just you
Speaker 1: in a hallucination. There are no weather manipulation waves, and
Speaker 1: there is no mood stabilizer being sprayed during a disaster
Speaker 1: in which a fire is consuming the nation's second largest city. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the LA fires were made just as an excuse to
Speaker 1: spray clouds of mood stabilizing drugs, something that you know
Speaker 1: isn't The LA fires were set so that you could
Speaker 1: spray large quantities. Who knows how much this would require,
Speaker 1: if there were such a thing, to spray them all
Speaker 1: over southern California instead of if somebody were to do this,
Speaker 1: and presumably this would be Democrats who were doing this, well,
Speaker 1: you would have a choice of spraying it over southern
Speaker 1: California or over Magaland to make people comply or mood stabilize,
Speaker 1: or you're using your space lasers on them. Marjorie Taylor,
Speaker 1: Naomi Wolf. Here's the point. If these things exist, and
Speaker 1: let me just quote them exactly again. A mood stabilizer
Speaker 1: of kind in what was sprayed or weather manipulation waves
Speaker 1: designed to entrain human thought patterns. We are there in
Speaker 1: history and must ask the question. Here in history, I
Speaker 1: have this question, why not just save all this crap
Speaker 1: and spray them all over Naomi Wolf, whose mood has
Speaker 1: not been stable this entire century, and who is today's
Speaker 1: worst person.
Speaker 2: In the world.
Speaker 1: Mood stabilizing. See the number one story on the Countdown
Speaker 1: and my favorite topic, me and things I promised not
Speaker 1: to tell. You may enjoy this one enough to keep
Speaker 1: a copy. Soccer Gary Miller was one of the backbones
Speaker 1: of Sports Center. I had worked with him at CNN.
Speaker 1: He was strong, confident, very loud, forceful, He hated mascots,
Speaker 1: and he had no filter. He and Dan Patrick were
Speaker 1: great friends in Atlanta, and then Gary and Dan left
Speaker 1: for ESPN within months of each other nineteen eighty nine,
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety This has been said of me, and so
Speaker 1: I say it of Gary with affection. He suffered no
Speaker 1: fools gladly, and though his elbows were always up, he
Speaker 1: made sure that ninety nine percent of the time when
Speaker 1: they bumped into somebody, that somebody had well deserved it.
Speaker 1: As near as I can piece together, Gary was doing
Speaker 1: the eleven PM Sports Center on Friday night, June twenty fourth,
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety four. Typically, Dan and I did the eleven
Speaker 1: Sunday through Thursday, the story of soccer's nineteen ninety four
Speaker 1: World Cup. At least in the first week, was a
Speaker 1: preponderance of player ejections red cards handed them by the referee.
Speaker 1: In those days, the eleven PM's four Center included a
Speaker 1: feature two or three minutes long on a story that
Speaker 1: had drummed up a lot of interest during the first
Speaker 1: show planning meeting around three point thirty PM. It was
Speaker 1: a feature called Breakdown. It provided long form analysis in
Speaker 1: today's when we didn't have a lot of that. Could
Speaker 1: be a coach getting fired, could be the relative credentials
Speaker 1: of Baseball Hall of Fame candidates, could be one fantastic
Speaker 1: play in a game. Once we did a deadpan, serious
Speaker 1: breakdown about injuries to mascots. A producer or the anchor
Speaker 1: himself would write the script. They would pre record the narration,
Speaker 1: and then the producer would edit it. This is pre digital.
Speaker 1: It was done tape to tape. It could take hours
Speaker 1: to edit it, and the key was to track it
Speaker 1: to record that narration, which was done in a tiny
Speaker 1: wood paneled room wreaking of mildew that looked and smelled
Speaker 1: exactly like every suburban basement wreck room in America circa
Speaker 1: October nineteen sixty five. That's where Garry Miller found himself
Speaker 1: on the night of Friday, June twenty fourth, nineteen ninety four,
Speaker 1: reading a script about soccer players from around the world,
Speaker 1: none of whose names he had ever seen before, let
Speaker 1: alone tried to pronounce. It was the Soccer Breakdown in
Speaker 1: all senses of the word. The raw tape, the original
Speaker 1: version of his tracking session for the script for Soccer Breakdown,
Speaker 1: is easily the most beloved bootleg in ESPN's history. In fact,
Speaker 1: it is so popular that there are several different cuts
Speaker 1: of this bootleg. People have sat down with the original tape,
Speaker 1: which runs nearly twenty minutes, and edited it down to
Speaker 1: only the best or worst parts. Now, I'm not going
Speaker 1: to say I have a copy of the original. I'm
Speaker 1: simply going to note that Dan Patrick ran it on
Speaker 1: his radio show in twenty seventeen and posted the whole
Speaker 1: segment to YouTube. So yeah, that's where I got my
Speaker 1: copy of it. Uh, that's my story and I'm sticking
Speaker 1: to it. I'm going to annotate for you what happened,
Speaker 1: So let me present this to you in three segments.
Speaker 1: It did not start well for Gary and it got
Speaker 1: worse from there, although mister Miller gave it its eternal
Speaker 1: title and life by going sibilant on the s. For
Speaker 1: the word soccer, I'll note only one thing, the acronym
Speaker 1: of International Soccer's outfit FIFA Gary. It's pronounced FIFA.
Speaker 4: Soccer breakdown in three two one, FIPHO Soccer's governing barty
Speaker 4: three two one, Piphos Soccer's three two one. The red
Speaker 4: card has become the calling card for this year's tournament.
Speaker 4: Seven ejections for the three two one witness Romania's ian
Speaker 4: Bladu against.
Speaker 1: The Swiss is or through christ Ah. But that was
Speaker 1: the easy part. Now in the script came the names
Speaker 1: of the World Cup stars who had been given red
Speaker 1: card ejections in the first week of the tournament. One
Speaker 1: was the seventeen year old star of the Cameroon team,
Speaker 1: Rigobert's Song, often referred to by his full name, Rigobert's
Speaker 1: song Maahanog, or as it was said in the script,
Speaker 1: Riggerbird bahanog song three.
Speaker 4: Two one, Cameroons Wriggleberg vanumnjog three two what Cameroon's Riggelberg
Speaker 4: byan gung zang Za Da da Bayangyang's song three two one,
Speaker 4: Cameroon's Wriggleberg Banyang Zong.
Speaker 2: Bayuyang song three two one three two one.
Speaker 1: By the way, Rigobert's song is now the manager of
Speaker 1: the Cameroon team. He's gone from being the youngest player
Speaker 1: in the World Cup history to get a red card
Speaker 1: to running his nation's team. I'll interject here that at
Speaker 1: the start of this final major clip, Gary Miller says,
Speaker 1: to somebody who has currently entered that tracking room that
Speaker 1: smelled of mildew, get out of here. Dan Patrick said
Speaker 1: that was him. I think he's mistaken. It doesn't matter much,
Speaker 1: but there was no reason for Dan to have been
Speaker 1: there on a Friday night, especially if we were not
Speaker 1: doing the show. And also there has never been a
Speaker 1: microphone ever. But Dan has not spoken into anyway. We
Speaker 1: have already met Rigobert Mahanog's song. Now meet my guy,
Speaker 1: the Italian goalie John Luca Poaliucca.
Speaker 2: Two get out of here? Two is guilt through two?
Speaker 2: How long is this tayed?
Speaker 4: Three two one one one Maroon's Riggoberg Bunjang song preventing
Speaker 4: a breakaway from Brazil's babetto a fah God Almighty, I
Speaker 4: hate socker. Cameroon's Rigoberg Buanjungjong Song. I'm gonna try that
Speaker 4: one last lead time two one Cameroon's riggleberg Banjungjong Song.
Speaker 4: I hate this chalcout Bolivia's Luis Cristaldo for both on
Speaker 4: three to one. But the most notable red card of
Speaker 4: the tournament came an Italian goaltender, Jean Luca Palyuka Pauloca Paul.
Speaker 1: Yuka the mother b three to one.
Speaker 4: But the flurry of red cards thus far has toadd
Speaker 4: coaches and players alike to control their play if they'd
Speaker 4: like to control their fate in this tournament.
Speaker 2: Holy sleep, that is all.
Speaker 1: The pronunciation of rigovert Song's name is one thing. I
Speaker 1: was delighted by how furious Gary got at Gianluca Palyuka
Speaker 1: of the Italian team and the expletive he used to
Speaker 1: describe him, which you may have just heard in the
Speaker 1: days that followed. In fact, the Italian goalie's name became
Speaker 1: shorthand for me for that expletive in question. So for
Speaker 1: the next three years on SportsCenter and after that on
Speaker 1: Fox Sports News, and then on my ESPN two show
Speaker 1: and on Football night in America. And then when I
Speaker 1: returned to Sports Center in twenty eighteen, if you heard
Speaker 1: me say John Luca Paluca while we were showing a
Speaker 1: player making an error or arguing with an umpire or official,
Speaker 1: I was actually implying that the player had just said
Speaker 1: John Luca Paaluca. There's another punchline to this story, of course,
Speaker 1: the idea to do this soccer breakdown that so bedeviled
Speaker 1: Gary Miller, the story of red cards in the first
Speaker 1: week of the nineteen ninety four World Cup. The idea
Speaker 1: to do that came from Gary Miller, never volunteer. I've
Speaker 1: never been vinced that Gary was really happy about his immortality,
Speaker 1: certainly not in the way my ESPN pal Steve Levy
Speaker 1: not so secretly glorious in the day. He once tried
Speaker 1: to say that a New England Patriots player had a
Speaker 1: bulging disc, but didn't quite get disc right. But Gary
Speaker 1: Miller has been a good sport about this through the
Speaker 1: end of his ESPN career in two thousand and four
Speaker 1: and afterwards, in his days at Channel two and Channel
Speaker 1: nine in Los Angeles and most recently at Channel two
Speaker 1: in Cincinnati. It isn't hard to understand why this tape
Speaker 1: is so famous and the pleasure derived from it so enduring.
Speaker 1: As John Clees once said about the real life hotel
Speaker 1: manager on whom he based his character from Faulty Towers,
Speaker 1: he had this wonderful bad temper. But there are two
Speaker 1: more things. One, this occurred exactly a week to the
Speaker 1: day after the OJ Simpson car chase, and people forget
Speaker 1: now just how disturbing that was in an America, especially
Speaker 1: sports America, like at ESPN, that with the accept of
Speaker 1: a few of us who knew, nobody knew how rotten
Speaker 1: a human being OJ Simpson was. So even a week later,
Speaker 1: we all needed this laugh, and Gary gave it to
Speaker 1: us and even larger. The essence of soccer in every
Speaker 1: country in which it is played is that it always
Speaker 1: allows and encourages and even demands that its fans complain
Speaker 1: about it. And so while we cherish soccer breakdown and
Speaker 1: three two one and Rigobert Mahananng's song and Bibto and
Speaker 1: John Luca Paluka, to me, it is really about five
Speaker 1: words that anybody who hates the game will say. But
Speaker 1: there are also five words that any fan of the
Speaker 1: sport will certainly use at some point in his life,
Speaker 1: possibly at some point today. And they are the five
Speaker 1: words with which I will leave you for now. A
Speaker 1: foh God, might I hate soccer? Since I first told
Speaker 1: you this story, I have, as I mentioned, rediscovered an
Speaker 1: artifact that I thought was gone forever. Right after the
Speaker 1: Soccer Breakdown saga unfolded, an ESPN colleague made me a
Speaker 1: copy of the original raw tape of Gary and we
Speaker 1: put it on a cassette and I couldn't find it.
Speaker 1: There were things on it that were somehow lost from
Speaker 1: all subsequent copies of Soccer Breakdown. So this is not
Speaker 1: as high depth, but I think it's even more high comedy.
Speaker 4: Soccer breakdown in three two one after a nineteen ninety
Speaker 4: World Cup Mark FI physical play in low scores, Piphus
Speaker 4: Soccer's three too one after a nineteen ninety World Cup
Speaker 4: mark five three two what After a nineteen ninety World
Speaker 4: Cup mark five physical play and low scores, Pyphus Soccer's
Speaker 4: governing body send out a decree for the nineteen ninety
Speaker 4: four Cup to be better police the result, the red
Speaker 4: card has become the calling card for this year's tournament.
Speaker 4: Seven ejections for three two one after a nineteen ninety
Speaker 4: World Cup marked by physical play and low scores. Fifhus
Speaker 4: Soccer's governing body sent out the decree for the nineteen
Speaker 4: ninety four Cup to be better police. The result, the
Speaker 4: red card has become the calling card for this year's tournament.
Speaker 4: Seven ejections through the first twenty three matches and a
Speaker 4: direct message that rough play will not be tolerated and
Speaker 4: more teams will be playing.
Speaker 2: A man down if it continues. The goal more goals
Speaker 2: and a more palatable sell to the American public three
Speaker 2: two one.
Speaker 4: The results just over two and a half goals of
Speaker 4: contests compared to two point two per game at the
Speaker 4: nineteen ninety Cup in Italy.
Speaker 2: Why does the red card come out?
Speaker 4: A Fifer rule book states a player shall be sent
Speaker 4: off the field of play and shown the red card if,
Speaker 4: in the opinion of the referee he won is guilty
Speaker 4: of violent conduct. Witness Romania's Ian blad you against the
Speaker 4: Swiss is or through christ three two one.
Speaker 2: Why does the red card come out? The fight?
Speaker 4: The rule book states a players should be set off
Speaker 4: the field of play and shown the red card if,
Speaker 4: in the opinion of the referee he won is guilty
Speaker 4: of violent conduct witness. Romania's ian Bladu against the Swiss
Speaker 4: two is guilty of serious foul play.
Speaker 2: Cameroons Rigoberg.
Speaker 5: Vanumnjog Bonanjung's song prevented to break away from the betto
Speaker 5: three to what two is guilty of serious foul play.
Speaker 4: Cameroons Rigelberg Bayan Gung Zang Zada Da Bayangyang's song three

Speaker 4: out of here two is guilty through it two How
Speaker 4: long is this tape? Two is guilty of serious foul play.
Speaker 4: Cameroon's Riggleberg Bunyang song prevented a breakaway from Brazil's babetto
Speaker 4: a fah God Almighty I Hate Sucker.
Speaker 2: Two is guilty of serious foul play.
Speaker 4: Cameroon's Riggleberg Banyuanyung song provided a breakaway from Brazil's babetto
Speaker 4: a play both siious and faul.
Speaker 2: Deserving of a red card.
Speaker 4: I'm better try that one last time two one two
Speaker 4: is guilty of serious foul play. Cameroon's Rigglebird bun Yung
Speaker 4: Yong song prevented a breakaway from Brazil's babetto a play
Speaker 4: both serious and foul and deserving of a red card.
Speaker 4: Three uses foul or abusive language, can't show you that,
Speaker 4: and four is guilty of a second cautionable I hate this.
Speaker 4: Three uses foul or abusive language, and four is guilty
Speaker 4: of a second cautionable offense after having received the caution.
Speaker 4: Chalcop Bolivia's Luis Cristaldo for both on three to one.
Speaker 4: Chalk up bolivia Is Luis Cristaldo for both on this case,
Speaker 4: as he receives a yellow card and then uses a
Speaker 4: foul or abusive language to draw a second yellow and
Speaker 4: be ejected against South Korea. A tone was set in
Speaker 4: the first match of the tournament when Bolivia's Marco Antonio
Speaker 4: Etcheveri was ejected for this illegal kick against the Germans.
Speaker 4: But the most notable red card of the tournament came
Speaker 4: an Italian goaltunder Jean Luca.
Speaker 2: Pauluca from the mother three to one.
Speaker 4: But the most notable red card of the tournament came
Speaker 4: when Italian goaltunder John Luca Pauloca was ejected against Norway
Speaker 4: for a handball outside the goal where the game was
Speaker 4: still schoolless three two one, but the most notable red
Speaker 4: card of the tournament came with Italian goal Tuto John
Speaker 4: Luca Paul Yucca was ejected against Norway for a handball
Speaker 4: outside the goal area, with the game still schoolless down
Speaker 4: a man a team's first instinct is defense an injured
Speaker 4: Roberto Baggio, who is now a liability, even if he
Speaker 4: is one of the world's most talented offensive players. The
Speaker 4: gamble paid off Italy still live in this year's World Cup,
Speaker 4: but the flurry of red cars thus far has taught
Speaker 4: coaches and players alike to control their play if they'd
Speaker 4: like to.
