1
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:10,000
Speaker 1: It's that time. Time, time, luck and load. The Michael

2
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 1: Verie Show is on the air. I won't lecture you

3
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 1: on the Rob Reiner Donald Trumpet comments last night. Some

4
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:46,720
Speaker 1: of you did not appreciate what I had to say,

5
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:50,159
Speaker 1: and that's okay. I'm fine with that. I won't lecture

6
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 1: on that because I get pretty passionate about how weak

7
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 1: our side is and how committed we are to civility

8
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 1: and being pressy and proper as we're being kicked in

9
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 1: the teeth, and when we have a real warrior among us,

10
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 1: we don't like it. We'd rather be nice than when

11
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 1: And that's okay, that's okay. I've come to understand this.

12
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 1: I did think, however, we should maybe play you a

13
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 1: clip of the view the hens on the View after

14
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 1: Rush Limbaugh died. A man who did as much or

15
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,320
Speaker 1: more for this country as anyone, a man who devoted

16
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 1: his life to the excellence of this country. A man

17
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: who is responsible for a number of people's success in

18
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 1: gluting my own the am dial free speech. The number

19
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,040
Speaker 1: of people for whom he raised millions and millions of

20
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 1: dollars for charity, the number of people he inspired to

21
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 1: be better from all walks of life, the amount of

22
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: passion and love he had for this country. And upon

23
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 1: his passing, this is what the Hens on the View

24
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: said about him.

25
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 2: He just normalized hatred, He normalized racism, and you know,

26
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 2: I think he really weaponized white male grievance and and

27
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 2: you know, he sort of hardened these like rural white listeners,

28
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 2: people you know, sitting in their trucks and in the

29
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 2: middle of America and in the South, and you know,

30
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 2: listening to Rush Limbaugh, this wasn't someone who was a

31
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,799
Speaker 2: nice person. This is someone that spewed racism and hatred.

32
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 2: Yet he is now considered, I guess, the most an

33
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 2: influential person in building the modern Republican Party and conservatism.

34
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 2: He to me, that is not something to be proud.

35
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 3: Any people are mourning the loss of him today and

36
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 3: many are not. And I was not a fan at

37
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 3: all of Rush Limbaugh. I think he paved the way

38
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 3: for political extremism, uh and pushed baseless claims. He was

39
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 3: the beginning of conspiracy theories. He was like the predecessor

40
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 3: to the Alex Jones. Is a lot of the things

41
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 3: we're seeing that we don't like now. He in a

42
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,640
Speaker 3: sense kind of bastardized the party in a way because

43
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 3: I know there are conservative ideals that Sonny was referencing,

44
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 3: and we're you know, many of us are saying, please

45
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 3: speak up and represent those because I don't like to

46
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,919
Speaker 3: even think of him as representing Republicans or conservatives. He

47
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 3: represents very extreme views. He said a ton of despicable

48
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 3: things that we could never We don't even have enough

49
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 3: time on one show to.

50
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: Cover this stuff.

51
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,359
Speaker 3: Is just I have a visceral reaction to so many

52
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,079
Speaker 3: of his words. But the first thing that ran through

53
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 3: my head when I saw the news was, now, it's

54
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,639
Speaker 3: judgment day at the end of our lives.

55
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 4: It's just us.

56
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 3: Answering for everything we did, who we were, what we said,

57
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 3: and how we treated people. And so now judgment day

58
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 3: has arrived for Rush Limbaugh.

59
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 5: I'm hoping that his legacy will be the return of

60
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 5: the fairness doctrine. The fairness doctrine required that stations on

61
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 5: air to air contrasting responsible views on important issues at

62
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 5: the threat of losing their license.

63
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 6: And Trump actually learned and to talk the way Rush talked.

64
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 6: He thought it would they all think they're funny. Also,

65
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 6: Rush used to think he was a comedian. Trump thinks

66
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 6: he's hilarious when he's out there with his Trump bites,

67
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 6: you know, loving everything he says. I think that there's

68
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,479
Speaker 6: a direct connection between Rush Limbaugh and Donald Trump and

69
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 6: where we are today.

70
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: They go on the air.

71
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 6: And these few their hatred, their prejudices, their lives, as

72
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 6: did Rush Limbaugh for the Almighty Dollar, and they fool

73
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 6: Americans into believing that they are authentic.

74
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: They are not authentic. And there you have it, a

75
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: bunch of angry old women, bitter, mean, vicious, but they're

76
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: not mean. Only Donald Trump is. Remember when during the

77
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 1: election people would say, bring back mean tweets, Bring back

78
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:54,360
Speaker 1: mean tweets and cheap gas, bring back mean tweets and

79
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:59,839
Speaker 1: American excellence. Remember that because the worst thing Donald Trump

80
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: it was mean tweets. People said, bring back the mean

81
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,279
Speaker 1: tweets and get the boys out of the girls locker room.

82
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 1: Bring back the mean tweets and get the men out

83
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 1: of women's sports. Bring back the mean tweets, get our

84
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 1: economy back on track, bring back the mean tweets and

85
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 1: close the border. Bring back the mean tweets. You didn't

86
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: mean it, did you. Because if Donald Trump is engaged

87
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: in mean tweets. Then somebody somewhere in your mind is

88
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: judging you that you're not polite, because that's the worst crime,

89
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 1: isn't it. Really, that's what racism is about. That's what

90
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 1: xenophobia is about. That's what transphobia is about. You're not conforming,

91
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:55,719
Speaker 1: you're not conventional, you're not playing by the rules. The

92
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 1: mean girls will set the rules for this club, and

93
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 1: we'll kick you out of polite society. We don't want

94
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 1: you in our church, we don't want you in our club,

95
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: We don't want you in our neighborhood and our little clique.

96
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 1: It's eighth grade or sixth grade all over again. You

97
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 1: say things that are not acceptable. You support Trump when

98
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 1: he says things that are mean. You don't do what

99
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 1: we're all supposed to do. You don't fall in line.

100
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 1: You're not the little duckling that follows the one behind

101
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: you because that's what you're supposed to do, because that's

102
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,160
Speaker 1: what they do. And that's why all the little Republicans

103
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,359
Speaker 1: have lined up to say I like Donald Trump, but

104
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 1: he shouldn't have said that. But you don't. Nobody ever

105
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 1: has a problem as long as you say it with

106
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 1: a smile. Barack Obama used the White House to attempt

107
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:52,719
Speaker 1: to overthrow an election. In twenty sixteen, he used the

108
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:58,040
Speaker 1: White House to guard Hillary Clinton from prosecution for horrible crimes.

109
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:01,839
Speaker 1: He used the White House to spy on Donald Trump,

110
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 1: the man who would be elected president. But he did

111
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 1: it with a smile, And we're told he's so sophisticated

112
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 1: and cool, whereas Trump is crass and crude. At the

113
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 1: end of the day, it's a cool kids club, isn't it.

114
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 1: At the end of the day, it's what do we

115
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: feel comfortable with in our world that we are so

116
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 1: desperately pretending to be classy and civil, civil, civil, civil

117
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: in a world that is cruel and mean and vicious. Civil.

118
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 1: At Brown University where a young lady her life mattered,

119
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 1: was shot and killed, and to my knowledge, we still

120
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 1: don't have the shooter. Oh, we've got footage of him.

121
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,280
Speaker 1: There's a fat, bumbling looking fool that looks a lot

122
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 1: like the guy that many say as the chief suspect,

123
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 1: prime suspect, who's a teaching assistant, who's a gay man.

124
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 1: Girl want to be Palestinian sympathizer. Oh, but don't release

125
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 1: the name. You release the name of a white guy

126
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 1: that didn't walk or look anything like that. Well, let's

127
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 1: be civil, don't want to be rude. Michael Berry Show continues,

128
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 1: Happy birthday to Tracy Burd. It's time Tracy Bird grew

129
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 1: up about ten minutes from me. Invit her I was

130
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 1: in orange Field. We didn't know each other. Then our

131
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 1: dads worked together at DuPont and Orange before I Tracy

132
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 1: Inn went to Beaumont. And when Mark Chestnut went to

133
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,560
Speaker 1: what's called the Showcase in Nashville, which is where you

134
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 1: go and they have several labels at one time and

135
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 1: you put your best foot forward and then they make

136
00:08:55,920 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 1: you offers'd be like tryouts to the combine for for football.

137
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 1: And when Mark's Mark Chestnut's Mark Chestnut's band, or when

138
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: he got the call they call Tracy Byrd and said, hey,

139
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 1: would you be interested in taking over his residency playing

140
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:18,839
Speaker 1: several nights a week? And he did. I think he

141
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 1: played four or five nights a week every week. They

142
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 1: just were grinding and he would eventually go to the

143
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 1: showcase and he would eventually get a bid and he

144
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 1: would eventually have some number one songs in a very

145
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:37,199
Speaker 1: successful career. And because he never lost sight of the

146
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: fan and he never got caught up in his own celebrity.

147
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,840
Speaker 1: He is still able to tour to this day. He

148
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 1: was doing about ninety tours. He keeps dropping it by

149
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 1: about ten per year because he doesn't want to work

150
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 1: that hard any longer. But he and his band go

151
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 1: on the road and they do I think about seventy

152
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 1: five shows a year now, and he has a great life.

153
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 1: He lives in Beaumont, just as Mark Chestnut lives in Beaumont.

154
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: They never did the Nashville thing. They stayed true to

155
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,599
Speaker 1: kind of who they were and what they were, and

156
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: I think it's paid off well for them. You know

157
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 1: who doesn't stay true to who they are and what

158
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 1: they campaigned on? Members of Congress who go to Washington,

159
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:23,079
Speaker 1: DC and start trading stock on inside information. The Securities

160
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 1: in Exchange Commission SEC. Thirty one and thirty two Act,

161
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:31,439
Speaker 1: they were called. It regulates who can trade stocks at

162
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 1: what time based on the information you have. So if

163
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 1: your best friend is the CEO of IBM, and y'all

164
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:46,440
Speaker 1: are playing pickleball and he says, hey, we got a

165
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,800
Speaker 1: big governmental investigation. It's going to hit next week and

166
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 1: it's going to tank our stock. So if you've got

167
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 1: our stock, and let's say it's fifty dollars a share,

168
00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 1: you should sell today because it could go down to ten.

169
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 1: You are trading in information that is not available to

170
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 1: the general public. So for you to do that gives

171
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 1: you an artificial advantage. It gives you inside information or

172
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 1: information that is only available to what are known as insiders.

173
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 1: So when that happens, you are committing a crime. That's

174
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,839
Speaker 1: what Martha Stewart went to prison for. And when you

175
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: look at that case, I've spent a fair amount of

176
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 1: time on that case. I'm not certain she engaged in

177
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:42,080
Speaker 1: a pure statutory insider trading violation. She did her time,

178
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 1: and a survivor that she is, I think she's bigger

179
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: today than she was before. She's got some odd sense

180
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 1: of street cred. Who would have guessed Martha Stewart made

181
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 1: famous by telling suburban women, this is how you decorate

182
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: your table for events? What have street cred? And be

183
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 1: hanging out with Snoop Dogg. And I'm not entirely sure

184
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 1: he hadn't. Yeah, I mean it's it's you know, only

185
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 1: in America, right, only in America. So the Treasury Secretary

186
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: has said Scott Bessant, it is time to ban members

187
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 1: of Congress from trading stocks. And he's right. These people

188
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 1: have information by virtue of their job that the general

189
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 1: public does not have, and it is not fair or

190
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,960
Speaker 1: legal for them to trade on it. There is no

191
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,440
Speaker 1: doubt that members of Congress have inside information. That is

192
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 1: that's not up for debate. The only doubt we have

193
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 1: is whether they're trading on that information to make profits. Well,

194
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,439
Speaker 1: just look at how well they're doing a stock pickers,

195
00:12:55,679 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 1: and isn't it interesting that these people are killing the market.

196
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 1: They're doing so much better than people who do this

197
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 1: full time and half for decades, the quote unquote professionals,

198
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 1: the experts, and they are presumably making calls for money

199
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: all day and sitting through committee hearings and campaigning, and

200
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 1: with a little bit of time on the side, they're

201
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 1: suddenly able to make a fortune. So Scott Bessett, the

202
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:26,680
Speaker 1: Treasury Secretary, writes that Nancy Pelosi and Oregon Senator Ron

203
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: Whedon quote are the poster children for a much larger problem.

204
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 1: As I have said before, congressional stock trading must end.

205
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,599
Speaker 1: During Senator Whedon's chairmanship of the Senate Finance Committee in

206
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, his public portfolio gained approximately one hundred

207
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 1: and twenty four percent, far exceeding Pelosi's seventy one percent

208
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:55,840
Speaker 1: return and the S and P five hundred 's twenty

209
00:13:55,880 --> 00:14:01,080
Speaker 1: five percent gain that year. He adds, this is a

210
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 1: nonpartisan issue. Oh sorry, this is not a partisan issue.

211
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 1: When members of congressional leadership post returns that far exceed

212
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 1: many of the world's top performing hedge funds, it undermines

213
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 1: the fundamental credibility of Congress itself. The American people deserve

214
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 1: far better, and I look forward to Congress taking action

215
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 1: to end congressional trading of individual stocks. The comments come

216
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 1: in response to an article Real Clear Politics by Jonathan Drager,

217
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 1: who wrote quote, a new working paper in the National

218
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 1: Bureau of Economic Research indicates that stock related gains are

219
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 1: most concentrated among congressional leaders rather than rank and file lawmakers.

220
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 1: The authors find that lawmakers who eventually rise to leadership

221
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 1: roles perform roughly in line with comparable peers before entering leadership,

222
00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 1: but after entering leadership, they outperform those peers by an

223
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 1: average of forty seven points annually. Let me ask you this,

224
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 1: why don't we allow athletes to gamble on sports. We

225
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: don't allow them to gamble on any sports, not just

226
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 1: the games they're playing in. Why not, because the potential

227
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 1: for conflict is so great. Pete Rose served, in my opinion,

228
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 1: an overly harsh lifetime ban as the greatest hitter in

229
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 1: baseball history. And yet you've got these members of Congress

230
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 1: getting rich off of secrets they got in our government,

231
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 1: and who knows what they're trading for them When you

232
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 1: need to escape from the everyday escape of the Michael

233
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 1: arri Show, or terrorism by TRANS members, I'm not sure

234
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 1: who's out doing who. The Muslims are the Trans. And

235
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 1: then when you get a Muslim training like what is

236
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 1: accused in Providence, Rhode Island at brown oh Man, woo

237
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 1: oh goodness, gracious, you got a live one on the

238
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 1: line there. The fifth person arrested in the New York

239
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: City New Year's Eve bombing plot is a quote unquote

240
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 1: Trantifa marine veteran. Yeah, that means Antifa member who's a

241
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 1: trainee and served in the United States Marines who wanted

242
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 1: to quote recreate Waco on ice. That's a lot to unpack.

243
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 1: Part of the liberal terror group. Turtle Island Liberation Front.

244
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna let w VUETV out of New Orleans tell

245
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 1: this story.

246
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 7: A newly unsealed criminal complaint says Michael James Legnon is

247
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,400
Speaker 7: suspected to be associated with the members of the Turtle

248
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 7: Island Liberation Front. According to the FBI, the organization is

249
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 7: an anti capitalist, anti government movement. This image included in

250
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 7: the complaint came from the group's Instagram page. The complaint

251
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 7: alleges Legnon intended to travel to New Orleans to carry

252
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 7: out an attack. He allegedly shared posts of Border patrol

253
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 7: removing a person from a rooftop in Kenner.

254
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 8: It seems as if his ire was pointed at ICE

255
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,439
Speaker 8: agents for what they're doing in this area right now.

256
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 7: Last Friday, the FBI executed a search warrant on Legnon's residence,

257
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:27,240
Speaker 7: and the complaint says agents found sniper trading manuals, assault rifles,

258
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 7: and ammunition. Legnon is a former marine. That same day,

259
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 7: Legnon was stopped on Highway ninety heading toward New Orleans.

260
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:38,640
Speaker 8: I think it's pretty obvious the reason they moved quickly

261
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:44,359
Speaker 8: is because they saw a guy loading up body armor

262
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 8: and lethal weapons and said he's heading to New Orleans.

263
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:52,639
Speaker 7: The complaint alleges Legnon posted this message in a signal

264
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,280
Speaker 7: group chat before his arrest, saying, on my way to

265
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:57,399
Speaker 7: Nolan now.

266
00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,120
Speaker 1: I'll be there in about two hours.

267
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:03,479
Speaker 7: According to court documents, the FBI was watching Legnon because

268
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 7: of his alleged affiliation with individuals plotting a bombing in

269
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 7: Los Angeles. He was mentioned, although not named, during an

270
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,640
Speaker 7: FBI press conference Monday, which detailed the arrest of four

271
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:18,159
Speaker 7: members of an alleged terrorist organization in connection with an

272
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 7: alleged planned attack on New Year's Eve in La Legnon

273
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:25,800
Speaker 7: now faces a charge of threats in interstate commerce. Reacting

274
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,680
Speaker 7: to the news of his arrest, Senator Bill Cassidy says,

275
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,920
Speaker 7: while details are limited, one thing is for sure.

276
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:36,080
Speaker 4: All I can say is thank God for the FBI

277
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:40,359
Speaker 4: and other intelligence services keeping us safe.

278
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:47,199
Speaker 1: There are horrible people among us who want to do

279
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 1: the rest of us harm. This isn't a love gone wrong,

280
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 1: This isn't a jolted lover, This isn't revenge or a

281
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: slight These are people who wish to bring mayhem and hatred,

282
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 1: mayhem and misery to other people indiscriminately. These are people,

283
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:17,719
Speaker 1: in every single case, who are sad, lonely, sick people.

284
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:20,920
Speaker 1: But that does not in any way diminish or mitigate

285
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 1: what they're doing. This case, like all the rest, will

286
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,399
Speaker 1: fall to the back pages, and it'll fall off the news,

287
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:32,919
Speaker 1: and this guy gets six months probation and he'll be

288
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 1: back doing something again. He should be thrown in a

289
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:38,639
Speaker 1: cage for the rest of his life. Period into story.

290
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:40,760
Speaker 1: We don't need to bear the risk of whether he's

291
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 1: going to relapse into his evil ways. Ramon, have you

292
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 1: ever wondered why the terms port and starboard are used

293
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:55,920
Speaker 1: for ships instead of just saying left and right. Well,

294
00:19:55,960 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 1: our mariners out there are seafarers. Our folks who love

295
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 1: boats maybe are sailors from the navy. Maybe you grew

296
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:12,639
Speaker 1: up sailing yourself. Maybe you love to be out on

297
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 1: the water. I don't claim to be an expert on

298
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: such matters. I never met a bad person who was.

299
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 1: But there's a series I discovered on social media. Somebody

300
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,359
Speaker 1: sent it to me and I told him send me more.

301
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 1: And it's a daughter asking her father who's He would

302
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:36,399
Speaker 1: be elderly, but he's not infirm. She's asking her father

303
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 1: questions about things she'd like to know more about, and

304
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:47,640
Speaker 1: they're interesting questions about things that he has specific information.

305
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:52,440
Speaker 1: So I'm sure some of you are saying, Michael, what's

306
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,200
Speaker 1: the big deal? Everybody knows that, But that's just it.

307
00:20:56,200 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 1: Everybody doesn't. Every Tuesday and Thursday night, a friend of

308
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:04,679
Speaker 1: mine and I watch Jeopardy together. His name is Alex Miller,

309
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 1: and there's a little cabin out behind our house and

310
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 1: my wife will come out and sit with us it

311
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,960
Speaker 1: sometimes and watch it, or if my kids are coming

312
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,959
Speaker 1: and going, or other friends, uncle Jerry, they'll join us.

313
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 1: And what's interesting is people have two reactions to every

314
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 1: question that's asked. Either they have no idea what the

315
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,439
Speaker 1: answer is and they figure that's a tough question, or

316
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,840
Speaker 1: if they know it, they'll say, well, that's easy. But

317
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:34,800
Speaker 1: it may just be easy to you. If you're a lawyer,

318
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:38,159
Speaker 1: then the rules of procedure pretty simple and the terminology

319
00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 1: behind it, but not to anyone else. If you're an architect,

320
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:47,679
Speaker 1: the concepts of architecture, if you're a plumber, electrician, sniper,

321
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 1: gun manufacturer, marathon runner, whatever you know seems simple and

322
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:59,439
Speaker 1: not exactly noteworthy to you, But that's a level of

323
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,159
Speaker 1: information and knowledge and experience that you have developed. That

324
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:07,200
Speaker 1: others haven't anyway. It's kind of what social media could be.

325
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:12,159
Speaker 1: A daughter asking daddy questions and daddy patiently answering questions,

326
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,600
Speaker 1: and the rest of us witnessing this and thinking, oh,

327
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:21,200
Speaker 1: I just learned something. So maybe, just maybe you will.

328
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:23,680
Speaker 9: Why boats and ships don't use left and right? Why

329
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:28,119
Speaker 9: do they use port and starboard starboard? Yeah, and you

330
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 9: explain that to me? Can you explain that again?

331
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 4: Well, of course, the left side of the ship is

332
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:37,359
Speaker 4: usually where they would put that's how they tie you

333
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,200
Speaker 4: up to the dark. They come in and put the

334
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 4: left side of the ship to the dark. That's the

335
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,200
Speaker 4: port side, because that's where the port is.

336
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:44,639
Speaker 1: Okay, that's where the dog is.

337
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 4: You gotta remember, back in the old day, the rudder

338
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 4: wasn't in the back, okay. Was he using sales and

339
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:54,960
Speaker 4: stuff anyway, And of course when they wanted a rudder,

340
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 4: it wasn't in the back of the ship is on

341
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,919
Speaker 4: the right hand side at the back, so whenever they

342
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 4: to go along, that's I just called them steer, steering board,

343
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:04,440
Speaker 4: sight or starboard.

344
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,159
Speaker 1: That's where that's okay comes from.

345
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 9: Just obviously they wouldn't want that clanging against this.

346
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 4: It's the dark because if you break it, No, you

347
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,960
Speaker 4: can't go anywhere. Right, you steer the ship anymore because

348
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,120
Speaker 4: they didn't have the rudder at the stern. They headed

349
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:18,880
Speaker 4: along the side of the ship right.

350
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 9: And then therefore you park on the port side.

351
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 1: Sorry, tie up? Okay, thanks. No matter how crazy the

352
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 1: world gets, confusing, frustrating, disappointing, I find that learning things

353
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:36,400
Speaker 1: makes me very happy. The brain releases in doorphins when

354
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,160
Speaker 1: we learn things. Just go pick up an encyclopedia, start

355
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,840
Speaker 1: reading a book, learn things. You make sense of things

356
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:47,399
Speaker 1: that way. It's Tracy Bird. Hey, y'all, if you drink,

357
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,720
Speaker 1: don't drive, do the watermelon crawl and listen to the

358
00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:56,400
Speaker 1: Tsar Salt. My buddy Michael Bars, very happy fifty ninth

359
00:23:56,400 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 1: birthday to our good friend Tracy Bird. Many of you

360
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 1: probably used Keeper of the Stars as the song you

361
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: danced at your wedding, very very popular choice, very popular choice. Indeed,

362
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 1: our friends in Louisiana, many of them used take My Hand,

363
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:23,119
Speaker 1: written by our friend mister Thibodeaux and the version as

364
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:30,680
Speaker 1: performed by Wayne Toops. That was a very very popular

365
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:37,440
Speaker 1: one for a while. Another one I've seen use over

366
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,879
Speaker 1: the years is remember when by Alan Jackson. I'm not

367
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 1: the biggest Alan Jackson fan, but that he does a

368
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:48,239
Speaker 1: beautiful version of that song. Well, for whatever reason, you

369
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:55,480
Speaker 1: cannot tell Republicans. Look, the liberal media is never gonna

370
00:24:55,600 --> 00:25:01,480
Speaker 1: like you. Stop trying to make them. Stop letting them

371
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:05,679
Speaker 1: in your house to tell nasty stories about you and

372
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 1: then claiming that you didn't say what you said or

373
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 1: what they say you said, or they took you out

374
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:17,119
Speaker 1: of context. Susie Wiles, chief of staff to Donald Trump,

375
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:24,159
Speaker 1: just got burned. She gave access to Vanity Fair on

376
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 1: a level that is unprecedented for this administration. And what

377
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 1: did they do, Well, they did their usual. Donald Trump

378
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 1: is crazy, he's a nut, he's a weirdo, he's a

379
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 1: whack job. He's a psychopath. He has to be removed.

380
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 1: But now they had his own chief of staff saying it, Oh,

381
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:47,200
Speaker 1: he twisted and contorted my words. If you're so stupid

382
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 1: that you thought they were going to be fair to you,

383
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,360
Speaker 1: that's a non starter for you being in that position

384
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 1: to start with. I guess that was what a non

385
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:00,320
Speaker 1: starter means. I kind of came back around with the

386
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:04,760
Speaker 1: use of the word ramon. This is ABC News's story

387
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 1: about the Vanity Fair piece that they wrote the hit piece.

388
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,879
Speaker 10: Now of the explosive interview from inside President Trump's inner circle,

389
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 10: his chief of staff Susie Wiles, who has preferred to

390
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,199
Speaker 10: stay in the background, giving nearly a dozen odd the

391
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,240
Speaker 10: record interviews to Vanity Fair, revealing she was the child

392
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,960
Speaker 10: of an alcoholic and saying President Trump has quote an

393
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 10: alcoholics personality. Tonight, President Trump responding to Susie Wiles's comments.

394
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 10: As for Wiles, she says the story is a hit piece.

395
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:36,000
Speaker 1: Mary Bruce at the White House, she.

396
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 11: Is President Trump's most powerful and trusted aid, more comfortable

397
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 11: behind the scenes than in the spotlight.

398
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:44,159
Speaker 1: Susie likes to say so of in the back, let

399
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 1: me tell you the ice stay. We call it the

400
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 1: Iceland law.

401
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,960
Speaker 11: But tonight, White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles pulling

402
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,960
Speaker 11: back the curtain in an extraordinary series of interviews with

403
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:57,280
Speaker 11: Vanity Fair. Wiles, who says her father was an alcoholic,

404
00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:01,400
Speaker 11: describes her boss, the President, as having an alcoholics personality,

405
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,399
Speaker 11: noting that Trump, who does not drink, operates with the

406
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 11: view that there's nothing he can't do, nothing, zero nothing.

407
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:12,040
Speaker 11: Wiles also has choice words for Vice President j. D.

408
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,560
Speaker 11: Vance discussing the push to release the FBI files into

409
00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:18,959
Speaker 11: sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, Wiles says Vance has been a

410
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,159
Speaker 11: conspiracy theorist for a decade.

411
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,360
Speaker 1: Vance today responding.

412
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,440
Speaker 7: Sometimes I am a conspiracy theorist, but I only believe

413
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 7: in the conspiracy theories that are true.

414
00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,719
Speaker 11: Wild also points a finger at Attorney General Pam Bondi,

415
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:35,639
Speaker 11: saying Bondi completely whiffed her handling of demands to release

416
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 11: the files on convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

417
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:42,760
Speaker 8: The DOJ may be releasing the list of Jeffrey Epstein's clients.

418
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:46,080
Speaker 1: Will that really happen? It's sitting on my desk.

419
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:49,359
Speaker 11: Right now to review, Wiles telling Vanity Fair there is

420
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,919
Speaker 11: no client list, and it's sure as hell wasn't on

421
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:55,880
Speaker 11: Bondie's desk. She does acknowledge the President himself is in

422
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 11: the Epstein files, but not doing anything awful. She says

423
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 11: the two the two men were sort of young single

424
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 11: playboys together. Trump has fought efforts to release the Epstein files,

425
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 11: instead ordering Bondi to investigate Epstein's relationship with Democrats like

426
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 11: former President Bill Clinton. But Wiles tells Vanity Fair the

427
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 11: files include no incriminating evidence about Clinton, saying the President

428
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:21,680
Speaker 11: was wrong about that. She also says this claim about

429
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,359
Speaker 11: Clinton is not true.

430
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,159
Speaker 8: I never went to the island, and Bill Clinton went

431
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 8: there supposedly.

432
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 11: Twenty eight times, Wiles telling Vanity Fair there is no

433
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 11: evidence Clinton ever visited Epstein's private island. The president tonight

434
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:40,480
Speaker 11: standing behind Wiles, telling The New York Post she's fantastic.

435
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 11: As for his chief of staffs claimed he has an

436
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 11: alcoholics personality, Trump saying I don't drink alcohol, so everybody

437
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 11: knows that, but I've often said that if I did,

438
00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 11: I'd have a very good chance of being an alcoholic.

439
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:55,160
Speaker 11: I've said that many times about myself.

440
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:55,560
Speaker 9: I do.

441
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:57,920
Speaker 1: It's a very possessive personality.

442
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,880
Speaker 11: And David Wiles also acknowledges that the President has sought

443
00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 11: retribution against some of his enemies, saying, quote, when there's

444
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 11: an opportunity, he will go for it. Tonight, Wiles calls

445
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 11: the article a disingenuously framed hit piece, though she doesn't

446
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:13,360
Speaker 11: deny saying these things.

447
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:22,840
Speaker 1: I Uh, you ever watched somebody do something really stupid,

448
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 1: maybe your own kids. You tell them not to do

449
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 1: something and they insist on doing it, and then the

450
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,719
Speaker 1: bad thing happens that you told them would happen if

451
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 1: they did it, and you just sit there thinking, well,

452
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:44,440
Speaker 1: what can you do? You can only do so much.

453
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:53,480
Speaker 1: The fact that Susie Wiles exercised the judgment to sit

454
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 1: for vanity fair, The fact that she had the words

455
00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:01,440
Speaker 1: come out of her mouth that Donald Trump has an

456
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 1: alcoholics personality. His brother drank himself to death, He's had

457
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 1: raging alcoholism in his family. He's horrified of alcohol. Is

458
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:22,880
Speaker 1: your vocabulary and your breadth of experience so narrow that

459
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:26,040
Speaker 1: that's the only way you could describe a person who

460
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 1: I suppose you mean is volatile? Do you not know

461
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:34,960
Speaker 1: that word? I'm not one for thinking Donald Trump gets

462
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:38,200
