Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty Armstrong and
Speaker 1: Jetty and he Armstrong and Yetty. This ain't just hype.
Speaker 1: I think Kamala.
Speaker 2: Harris on Fox with Brett Bear today for thirty minutes
Speaker 2: is as big as both the debates.
Speaker 1: That have happened so far.
Speaker 2: I would agree, Yeah, huge, Probably the biggest thing outside
Speaker 2: of an unforeseen you know, war, assassination attemptor something like that,
Speaker 2: biggest thing that's going to happen this last twenty days.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's absolutely true.
Speaker 2: My only caveat in agreeing with you is that whatever
Speaker 2: happens has to be picked up by the rest of
Speaker 2: media to have the sort of significance and debate would
Speaker 2: have because the baits already simulcast all over the place.
Speaker 2: I wonder what there's hiding it. I wonder what the
Speaker 2: viewership will be like. I know so many people who
Speaker 2: wouldn't know how to find Fox. They're so opposed to
Speaker 2: ever watching it because they are convinced.
Speaker 1: And I've tried to talk to.
Speaker 2: People about that before, but I realize you get nowhere
Speaker 2: because I honestly one hundred percent believe this. If you
Speaker 2: like watch the Sunday shows but don't watch Fox, you're
Speaker 2: missing half the stories in America.
Speaker 1: It's just a fact. Yeah yeah.
Speaker 2: And then the other part of it being if you
Speaker 2: think CBS is fair, MSNBC is fair, but Fox is not,
Speaker 2: you are so deluded.
Speaker 1: Sure, you're crazy. Yeah, yeah, I know people like that.
Speaker 1: I know smart people who believe that. So you have
Speaker 1: a highly twisted view of reality.
Speaker 2: But my point is being, I wonder how much what
Speaker 2: the viewership would be like for this interview, right, yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't have any idea. And again, does
Speaker 2: it get picked up, does enter the echo chamber, or
Speaker 2: does it just exist? Like for instance, we've been talking
Speaker 2: about the San Jose State University women's volleyball team. They've
Speaker 2: now had the fifth college in a row forfeit their
Speaker 2: match because they will not play against a team with
Speaker 2: a dude. San Jose has a so called transgender thing
Speaker 2: person on Spartans are undefeated. I'm not going to call
Speaker 2: a man a woman no matter what. So they've got
Speaker 2: a man on their team, and all these brave colleges
Speaker 2: are canceling the games, and in fact, I kind of
Speaker 2: Misspoker or left out a key aspect of this story
Speaker 2: when we played the tape of the woman who's part
Speaker 2: of the lawsuit against the NCAA and the federal government.
Speaker 2: I think because of the transgender thing, she is a
Speaker 2: player for San Jose State. So within the San Jose
Speaker 2: State team there's more activism. So that story is an
Speaker 2: enormous story, enormously significant in terms of opening people's eyes
Speaker 2: up to the transgender madness that the extreme left has
Speaker 2: you know, poured across America, has forced upon all of us.
Speaker 2: But nobody knows the story unless they are into right
Speaker 2: landing media. They don't know that five universities and soon
Speaker 2: who knows, seven, ten, twelve refuse to play San Jose State.
Speaker 1: They have no idea of that.
Speaker 2: So your question is, if she really flounders on Brett
Speaker 2: Baer with one answer, would that be seen anywhere but
Speaker 2: other Fox shows.
Speaker 1: Preaching to the choir media.
Speaker 2: So then my question would be, because I don't quite remember,
Speaker 2: the I come from a middle class family is known
Speaker 2: enough that Saturday Night Live used it in their opening.
Speaker 1: Yes for their audience and the crowd cracked up. So
Speaker 1: where did that come from? That was from one of
Speaker 1: the interviews, right, so she did it.
Speaker 2: She did it in the debate and then her next interview,
Speaker 2: and every rally and every rally.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, on sixty minutes she uncorked one of.
Speaker 2: Those basically Saturday on. I've thought enough people have seen that. Yeah,
Speaker 2: we can mock it.
Speaker 1: So I don't know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we'll have to see a lot of people
Speaker 2: are paying attention now, could break through anyway, Complete change
Speaker 2: of topic. This is a pretty good summary of what's
Speaker 2: happening in the Middle East visa the Israel clip Adi Michael.
Speaker 3: The Biden administration says Israel has thirty days to improve
Speaker 3: the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza or risk the flow
Speaker 3: of future US military aid to Israel, citing a list
Speaker 3: of demands and a letter to their Israeli counterparts, Secretary
Speaker 3: of State Anthony B. Lincoln and defend Secretary Lloyd Austin say,
Speaker 3: in part, Israel must get more aid through all of
Speaker 3: Gaza's major border crossings, open another crossing and institute humanitarian
Speaker 3: pauses and the fighting.
Speaker 2: And vet a bunch of Palestinians to be approved drivers
Speaker 2: to get aid in and out and all sorts of stuff.
Speaker 2: And they have thirty days to do it, which is
Speaker 2: conveniently after the election. So threatening Israel, we won't give
Speaker 2: you any arms unless you do this stuff, they implied.
Speaker 2: The th threat anyway, is just for domestic consumption, I'm certain,
Speaker 2: just desperately trying to get the Arab American slash Muslim vote,
Speaker 2: especially in Michigan. Those folks have refused to endorse anybody
Speaker 2: because they're pissed off at everybody. Apparently the Arab American
Speaker 2: Voter League or whatever their name is in Michigan.
Speaker 1: Didn't we learn there are more Jewish voters in Michigan
Speaker 1: than there are. No, that's not true. That's not true.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it was said, but then it turned out
Speaker 2: to be not true. But then I heard again the
Speaker 2: other day the same thing. But it's still not true. Well,
Speaker 2: I almost used an unfortunate word. They're folks. The gosh
Speaker 2: darn Wall Street Journal, of all places, stating is fact
Speaker 2: that Trump promised a blood bath if he was not elected.
Speaker 1: Now, that was a handful of writers, But don't you
Speaker 1: have editors over there. That's the point. If you do
Speaker 1: what exactly do they do all day?
Speaker 2: That's the problem with doing this job is you got
Speaker 2: to like get three sources on every fact you come across,
Speaker 2: you don't know if it's true or not.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, anyway, we can look into that.
Speaker 2: But so there's this idle threat for domestic consumption going on.
Speaker 2: More interesting to me is the little followed, little viewed
Speaker 2: story about the UN peacekeepers who are in Lebanon right
Speaker 2: next to Israel.
Speaker 1: Not keeping much peace, are they, huh?
Speaker 2: And the reason they've come under the spotlight, at least
Speaker 2: to some extent, is that Israel launched an attack the
Speaker 2: other day that injured some of the UN peacekeepers. And
Speaker 2: I don't think I can do better than the editorial board,
Speaker 2: which ought to read its own damn paper at the
Speaker 2: Wall Street Journal in describing.
Speaker 1: What's going on.
Speaker 2: The United Nations peacekeeping Force known as UNIFIL had one job.
Speaker 2: They were sent there in what was the year, years
Speaker 2: and years ago, into southern Lebanon to prevent Hesbola and
Speaker 2: anybody else from setting up shop. They're supposed to have
Speaker 2: like a demilitarized on. They had one job, keep armed
Speaker 2: terrorists out of southern Lebanon where they could shoot at Israel.
Speaker 2: It failed so abysmally that Israel has had to go
Speaker 2: to war to clean out the terrorists.
Speaker 1: So what does UNIFIL do now?
Speaker 2: It refuses to fight, It refuses to move and blames
Speaker 2: Israel for putting its non peacekeepers at risk. And instead
Speaker 2: of keeping the North of Israel out of danger, they've
Speaker 2: allowed Hesbela to entrench itself over the years, storing arms
Speaker 2: in many homes, building a network of fully stocked attack tunnels,
Speaker 2: in small outdoor weapons depot deposts, and in.
Speaker 1: Fact, Israeli troops did you hear this?
Speaker 2: Found a tunnel one hundred meters from one of the
Speaker 2: UNIFIL outposts.
Speaker 1: Wow, a observation out post.
Speaker 2: So these brave un troops are supposed to be making
Speaker 2: damn sure Hesbela is not up to anything nevarious, and
Speaker 2: they're so phony and lazy and in bed with.
Speaker 1: Hesbela or whatever.
Speaker 2: One hundred yards away he has built a big tunnel.
Speaker 1: I can't wait to read years from now.
Speaker 2: Why Israel is holding back at all right now on
Speaker 2: just completely finishing off Hamas Hasbela and then going after Iran.
Speaker 2: Is it the United States influence or do they have,
Speaker 2: you know, real logistical military reasons why they can't?
Speaker 1: I mean, they grow in as fast as they can.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I can't wait to find out, though. You know that
Speaker 2: diplomacy behind the scenes has got to be crazy, right,
Speaker 2: and they are famously unhurried in accomplishing the Israelis and
Speaker 2: accomplishing what needs to be accomplished. So I wonder, that's
Speaker 2: a great question. I have no answer. There's one more
Speaker 2: thing I wanted to say about this. The UN is
Speaker 2: useless and stupid to waste of money. I guess I
Speaker 2: was saying that based on the fact it's not like
Speaker 2: Israel trusts the UN because I don't know, and they
Speaker 2: should know. I wonder if Israel has a plan I
Speaker 2: almost said Plan A and Plan B, A, Plan T,
Speaker 2: and Plan H based on who wins the election in
Speaker 2: the United States to keep.
Speaker 1: The relationship healthy.
Speaker 2: If I could get bb Net and Yahu on the phone,
Speaker 2: I would tell him what I was about to tell you,
Speaker 2: good folks. The more I think about it and read
Speaker 2: about it, we are ninety eighty percent certain to have
Speaker 2: a long national nightmare of a post election litigation who
Speaker 2: won mess with all the mail in ballots and everything
Speaker 2: being so close, bb you're gonna be waiting until who
Speaker 2: knows December January to figure out who won and then
Speaker 2: the other side won't believe it. So I think I
Speaker 2: think we all need to mentally prepare ourselves for that.
Speaker 2: I'm looking up at CBS news our friend Ed O'Keefe
Speaker 2: record number of ballots cast in Georgia early voting.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so they're gonna have lots of votes to count. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I think America needs to, you know, lean forward at
Speaker 2: the waist and have its feed at shoulder width and
Speaker 2: be ready if that passes and it doesn't happen Trump
Speaker 2: wins decisively for instance. Okay, sorry, I alarmed everybody, But man,
Speaker 2: that would be uh, a surprising thing if we dodge
Speaker 2: that bullet. So unlike two thousand Bush and Gore and
Speaker 2: twenty twenty Biden Trump, It's not gonna be uh it
Speaker 2: looks like this person won, but they're fighting it.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a we go to bed with no idea. Man,
Speaker 1: that's slightest idea there. We go to bed night after
Speaker 1: night after night.
Speaker 2: There's like four swing states they haven't finished counting yet. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and it's so close.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Oh, and then imagine the I hate to call it disinformationment.
Speaker 2: Imagine the rumors flying around online, the narratives at the
Speaker 2: best of China and Russia and crazy people in the
Speaker 2: United States.
Speaker 1: Yeah no, and the videos you're going to see.
Speaker 2: Look at these people loading ballots in the back of
Speaker 2: this van in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.
Speaker 1: Right, Oh my god, man, we might have to go
Speaker 1: on vacation. Can we go on vacation November fifth through
Speaker 1: uh January seconds? Seems like a journalistic malpractice, but.
Speaker 2: At so anyway, yeah, again, I hope that's not the case,
Speaker 2: but it almost certainly will be.
Speaker 1: And uh, you're.
Speaker 2: Right, that needs to be fully embraced the media. We
Speaker 2: all need to quit talking about election day like we're
Speaker 2: gonna know anything.
Speaker 1: We almost certainly aren't.
Speaker 2: What was that set of statue you hit us with
Speaker 2: from the average polls? So Nate Silver's he chooses the
Speaker 2: polls he believes in the mouth and he's one of
Speaker 2: the most respected pollsters in America. So he's got his
Speaker 2: own average of best polls. There are seven states that
Speaker 2: are going to determine this all the other states.
Speaker 1: We know who's going to win. Seven swing states.
Speaker 2: Six of them are within a point in the average
Speaker 2: of the best polls.
Speaker 1: One of them is at one point six.
Speaker 2: Wow, that's just incredible, incredible With twenty days to go.
Speaker 1: I don't want to. I don't want to do this.
Speaker 2: And haven't we learned over the years that, oh we
Speaker 2: got to take a break. That learned over the years,
Speaker 2: and we've all accepted it because usually somebody wins by enough.
Speaker 1: It's okay.
Speaker 2: There's enough like play, sloppiness and an election that there's
Speaker 2: a couple percentage of you know, probably didn't get counted right,
Speaker 2: or fraud or the machine got it wrong or whatever
Speaker 2: that we've always accepted because nobody it's never been that
Speaker 2: close right. And then we get down to this doesn't
Speaker 2: look like his signature to me. It does to me
Speaker 2: times tens of thousands of mail in ballots.
Speaker 1: With the future of the world and the balance. Yes, Michael,
Speaker 1: you look horrified. No, I'm just back here signing.
Speaker 2: You want to save democracy, which is what people are
Speaker 2: yelling about all the time. Unless you are a soldier
Speaker 2: or handicapped, you show up and you vote in person.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that would help a lot. What do you think?
Speaker 2: Text line four one five two nine five KFTC are.
Speaker 4: Strong a special delivery at the National Zoo. Two giant
Speaker 4: pandas a boy boo leet and a girl ching boo
Speaker 4: are DC's newest diplomats. They touched down in a cargo
Speaker 4: plane dubbed the Panda Express for an eight thousand mile
Speaker 4: journey from Chengdu, China.
Speaker 3: I've been like crying the past two days, just tears
Speaker 3: of joy. I know Pen's gonna bring joy to the
Speaker 3: people in the district.
Speaker 4: The new pair will have a few months to acclimate
Speaker 4: in private before they slip, slide and munch their way
Speaker 4: right into our hearts.
Speaker 2: Ohh, so we're amazed by just saw some of the
Speaker 2: coverage on ABC Pandemonium, all the friendly coverage of the
Speaker 2: pandas coming from China, China loaning them to us with
Speaker 2: not a hint of the fact that there are enemies.
Speaker 2: There are biggest threat on planet Earth. They're designing their
Speaker 2: military to defeat us. One of the most's how they
Speaker 2: are good summary, sir. One of the most evil, malign
Speaker 2: dictatorships in the history of the planet happens to be
Speaker 2: where a cute bear lives. And so we all got
Speaker 2: out our newest diplomats. Well in the panda who's not
Speaker 2: in these pandas? Are they pandas or are they spies
Speaker 2: in panda suits? And at night they climb out of
Speaker 2: their suits. They get out of the zoo and they're
Speaker 2: all around Washington, DC, gathering information for the Commis.
Speaker 1: Don't just right?
Speaker 2: Well, and you know my complaint. Giant panda, it's the
Speaker 2: size of a regular bear. I've never gotten over my disappointment.
Speaker 1: But that is so interesting. This is the joke I
Speaker 1: used earlier.
Speaker 2: But it's like nineteen thirty nine and Hitler sends over
Speaker 2: some special beaver that only exists in Germany.
Speaker 1: We all get excited about Hitler's beavers. The Nazis are
Speaker 1: aloneing as they're beavers. Isn't that cute?
Speaker 2: The newest diplomats are slapping the tale of friendship as
Speaker 2: Hitler's beavers mate they get to the National Zoo.
Speaker 1: What just seems weird.
Speaker 2: How about you keep your pandas and stop running your
Speaker 2: boats into the Philippines fishing boats, navy, So though we
Speaker 2: don't have to go to war, how would you quit
Speaker 2: militarizing islands China?
Speaker 1: All right, Michael, take.
Speaker 2: The pandas and shove them up whinne the boos behind end?
Speaker 1: Wow?
Speaker 2: Wow, weird bear on bear violence. Yeah, and again I'm
Speaker 2: not anti panda. I've I've still in line and watched
Speaker 2: them with delight. They're they're endearing creatures for reasons anthropological
Speaker 2: reasons having to do with their their black eyes remind
Speaker 2: you of the large eyes of the forehead of a baby.
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah.
Speaker 2: Uh Anti China though, yeah, staunchly and college kids. So
Speaker 2: they'll they'll attack a Jewish bagel place. But people get
Speaker 2: all excited to go look at pandas it come from
Speaker 2: a country that has a million slaves and is conducting
Speaker 2: an actual genocide, an actual genocide. Yes, yeah, that is
Speaker 2: quite amazing. So Parent Teacher Conference week at my son's
Speaker 2: high school, meeting with his biology teacher today for a
Speaker 2: variety of reasons, what do you think about this? For
Speaker 2: an opening line, I'm thinking about walking in and saying, how.
Speaker 1: About that carbon?
Speaker 2: Huh, that's some weight on that carbon.
Speaker 1: It's pretty good. Huh working on the periodic table? Thought, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: elements am I right, Yeah, that's good. I just want
Speaker 1: to bond with the biology teachers.
Speaker 2: You walk in say I don't believe in photosynthesis. I
Speaker 2: think it's a liberal lie. Just to get a read
Speaker 2: on you. Protoplasmactoplasm, which are you? Oh, she would be
Speaker 2: so creeped out or he or really any sex or
Speaker 2: transgender everybody would be creeped out. Yes, right, why are
Speaker 2: you hitting on me? Or something? Maybe the biggest moment
Speaker 2: of the election thus far Tamala Harrison Brett Bair today.
Speaker 2: Although some of you are very skeptical about Brettbear's fairness.
Speaker 2: You think he's in the tank for Kamala, which I
Speaker 2: find hard to believe. But we got a lot to
Speaker 2: talk about.
Speaker 1: I hope you can stay here for you missing our
Speaker 1: get the podcast Armstrong and Getty on demand Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 5: You know, there's this whole I talked with.
Speaker 1: Somebody wants to say.
Speaker 5: You know, if you just look at where the stars
Speaker 5: are in the sky, don't look them as just random things.
Speaker 5: If you just look at them as points. Look at
Speaker 5: the constellation. What does it show you? So you just
Speaker 5: outlined it, Roland, what does it show you?
Speaker 1: We will make America affordable again.
Speaker 6: Over the past four years, her inflation nightmares cost the
Speaker 6: typical family twenty nine thousand dollars. Think of the twenty
Speaker 6: nine thousand dollars in inflation. The reason you feel poorer
Speaker 6: is thanks to Kamala.
Speaker 1: Oh what was Kamala talking about? There?
Speaker 2: She Hi, Hey, Yeah, I can't imagine that was a
Speaker 2: lovely creative edit. I am actually somewhat curious what the
Speaker 2: hell she was drawing it on about. It might have
Speaker 2: made sense in context, you don't know, probably not, probably not,
Speaker 2: but yeah, that's conceivable. I suppose the Trump dance party
Speaker 2: thing is getting a lot of attention, of attention in
Speaker 2: lefty media. That the fact that he just stood on
Speaker 2: stage swaying to the music for twenty seven So I
Speaker 2: saw it first on MSNBC. They did it again today.
Speaker 2: So they led with it yesterday, Amazon trub now and
Speaker 2: they led with it again today. This is proof that
Speaker 2: he needs to be in a home. That Trump needs
Speaker 2: to be in a home. He just locked up at
Speaker 2: his event the other day and stood there swaying to
Speaker 2: the music for over half an hour.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 2: When I saw the story in Fox, it was, well,
Speaker 2: a couple of people in the crowd passed out, and
Speaker 2: it was one of those deals where all the paramedics
Speaker 2: run over and they're taking care of the people, and
Speaker 2: Trump stopped and they played music, wait until they got
Speaker 2: all the couple of people taking care of an out
Speaker 2: of there, right, And I thought, okay, well does MSNBC
Speaker 2: not know that there was a medical emergency, or are
Speaker 2: they pretending they don't know or whatever. But there was
Speaker 2: no mention of the medical emergency. Today when I was
Speaker 2: watching it, they just talked about how what is going
Speaker 2: on with Trump?
Speaker 1: I mean, look at his brain. He's lost his mind.
Speaker 2: He's he completely locked up on stage. He just sways
Speaker 2: to the music and nobody's saying anything. This is crazy.
Speaker 2: So what's your take on that? What's going on with
Speaker 2: Trump or the media? Thirty nine minutes is a very
Speaker 2: long time.
Speaker 1: It's an odd way.
Speaker 2: To handle that situation. But I don't think it's of
Speaker 2: any significands on the health. What the health crisis was.
Speaker 2: If you got somebody dying of a heart attack, it
Speaker 2: could take a while. I have a feeling if you
Speaker 2: were to ask mourning Joseph and he answered honestly, he'd say, look,
Speaker 2: the other side lies, exaggerates and twists the truth. We lie,
Speaker 2: exaggerate and twist the truth. Then whoever does it better
Speaker 2: gets power for a while.
Speaker 1: I'm insanely rich, and if you don't mow my lawn
Speaker 1: or something, get away from me, you know, well that's
Speaker 1: probably what would happen.
Speaker 2: But yeah, so that's it they of course, Joe Scarborough
Speaker 2: knows what happens, what happened rather all right, he's heard
Speaker 2: so on a totally different topic. I wish we had
Speaker 2: time in the California Globe with a brilliant takedown of
Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom recently announcing that California is an economic powerhouse.
Speaker 2: It isn't by accident, whether it be around education, infrastructure,
Speaker 2: or immigration.
Speaker 1: We're following a formula for success, right, can you even wow?
Speaker 2: Chief Executive Magazine just put out their annual Best and
Speaker 2: Worst States for Business California fiftieth out of fifty again,
Speaker 2: fiftieth out of fifty. Yes, California is an economic powerhouse.
Speaker 2: And then the stuff about the schools and the immigration too, right, right, yeah,
Speaker 2: they've got the school stuff here too, that it's miserable,
Speaker 2: just miss. We have continued to lower the standard for
Speaker 2: graduating high school until we got a percentage that is
Speaker 2: at least passable. When other states lower standards, we eliminate
Speaker 2: them completely. We're California. We have half the homeless in
Speaker 2: the entire country in our state. And then, please don't
Speaker 2: roll your eyes into and out they go into the
Speaker 2: permanent damage caused by Emperor Gavin's complete shut down in California, well,
Speaker 2: not complete. It was incredibly arbitrary shut down in California
Speaker 2: during the pandemic. It was pretty song than anywhere else.
Speaker 2: The park near my home had yellow tape around it. Right,
Speaker 2: you were not allowed to go outside because an infectious disease.
Speaker 2: You must stay inside closed rooms. And school was shut
Speaker 2: for what a year and a half. It was a
Speaker 2: very very long time, even as his kids private school
Speaker 2: was open. In schools and other states were open, and
Speaker 2: all over Europe were open, and you.
Speaker 1: Know they go into to uh.
Speaker 2: All small and non essential businesses were closed, big big
Speaker 2: boxes remained open, Parks and beaches closed, churches were closed,
Speaker 2: liquor stores were open. So that was, you know, at
Speaker 2: least a decent policy. He ordered families to forego. So
Speaker 2: my buddy who runs a store, I won't say what
Speaker 2: the story is, but his store was closed because it
Speaker 2: was non essential. But the ice cream place next to
Speaker 2: him was open because I counted as a restaurant, Yeah,
Speaker 2: which is essential food.
Speaker 1: That makes sense. Yeah, So anyway, it's it's.
Speaker 2: A great takedown of the utter unfriendliness of California toward
Speaker 2: business and free enterprise and freedom in general, it's a
Speaker 2: well posted at Armstrong you getty dot com because it's
Speaker 2: really really good. And California got stolen from more than
Speaker 2: any other state, and people faking up their businesses and
Speaker 2: applying for loans and oh that biggest fraud by far. Yeah.
Speaker 2: And that leads me to another piece that happened to
Speaker 2: be I think from the California Globe again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I kind of thought of that.
Speaker 2: I like the I mean, I almost admire prisoners from
Speaker 2: around the country who just logged into the California website
Speaker 2: and said, yeah, I run a sandwich store and amount
Speaker 2: of money in California sent them. I want to keep
Speaker 2: my employees under payroll. Yeah, and then they do that
Speaker 2: twenty seven times.
Speaker 1: Oh god.
Speaker 2: And you know, once in a while, I'm concerned that
Speaker 2: folks around the country say, well, I don't care what's
Speaker 2: happening in California.
Speaker 1: Oh, my friends, my friends, my friends.
Speaker 2: If you accepted all the states or laboratories at democracy,
Speaker 2: which is a great idea, and I wish the federal
Speaker 2: government would let them be that all of the progressive
Speaker 2: schemes that are or will be soon introduced in your
Speaker 2: state house, introduced to your voters and sold the con job.
Speaker 1: That progressive policies are.
Speaker 2: This is your ammunition the disaster that is the Blue
Speaker 2: States at this point. Anyway, the COVID thing brought me
Speaker 2: to this really interesting thing from a surgeon thing. Mister Newrouter,
Speaker 2: my English teacher in high school, Joe, there's always a
Speaker 2: better word than thing.
Speaker 1: I apologize, sir, You're correct, You're right about that thing.
Speaker 2: This editorial from a learned man of medicine. It starts
Speaker 2: with a quote from the great Thomas Sowel. Some things
Speaker 2: are believed because they are demonstrably true, but many other
Speaker 2: things are believed simply because they have been asserted repeatedly,
Speaker 2: and repetition has been accepted as a substitute for evidence.
Speaker 1: True.
Speaker 2: That Sol may be the smartest guy who's ever is
Speaker 2: my hero, my hero anyway, The article is mask mandate,
Speaker 2: mainstream media malpractice. And this is a surgeon who has
Speaker 2: spent his entire life wearing masks in the operating rooms
Speaker 2: and trying to prevent infections, and is knowledgeable about the
Speaker 2: transmission of infections is anybody on the planet.
Speaker 1: And he's retired.
Speaker 2: Now so he can speak freely in a way he
Speaker 2: couldn't before.
Speaker 1: But he said, those.
Speaker 2: Masks are about bacteria and the And one interesting tidbit
Speaker 2: from this article is and he said a scrub nurse
Speaker 2: taught him when he was a brand new surgeon, if
Speaker 2: you have to cough or sneeze, do it directly at
Speaker 2: the wound, because you're wearing a mask. Because everything's going
Speaker 2: to go out the sides, and so the worst thing
Speaker 2: you can do is turn your head away.
Speaker 1: That's exactly what you should not do.
Speaker 2: Happy to know this in case I'm ever, I guess
Speaker 2: awake during a surgery and I'm all open in the
Speaker 2: and the doctor leans down into me goes, oh, you know,
Speaker 2: it's funny.
Speaker 1: I think everybody has thought, what if the pilot has
Speaker 1: a heart attack? Could I land the plane? But I
Speaker 1: don't think.
Speaker 2: Anybody's ever you know, I'm walking down the hallway of
Speaker 2: a hospital.
Speaker 1: The surgeons died. The surgeons died. We need somebody to
Speaker 1: finish the surgeon.
Speaker 2: I know a few knots from boy Scouts. You know,
Speaker 2: I paid attention in an antimy class. Right, I'll have
Speaker 2: a hack edit. I'll tell you one thing. If I
Speaker 2: have to call, I'll do it right toward the wound,
Speaker 2: and they'll say, oh, you know what you're doing, all right.
Speaker 1: Anyway, So this guy's.
Speaker 2: Point is, and there is an illustration of somebody vaping
Speaker 2: through a surgical mask and the teeny little vape particles,
Speaker 2: which are many, many, many times larger than a virus,
Speaker 2: get right through the mask. And his point is that
Speaker 2: viruses are so vanishingly small compared to bacteria that trying
Speaker 2: to stop a virus with a surgical mask is like
Speaker 2: trying to stop a mosquito with a chain link fence.
Speaker 1: He said, it's useless.
Speaker 2: You could line up one hundred mosquitoes wing to wing
Speaker 2: and fly him through a chain link fence because they're tiny.
Speaker 2: And he said it's completely useless for preventing viral spread.
Speaker 2: I suppose you could argue, well, if I'm in a
Speaker 2: crowded room and I'm wearing a mask and I have
Speaker 2: a disease and I cough, at least it'll go to
Speaker 2: the side and waft through the air, because the.
Speaker 1: Air circulates constantly.
Speaker 2: And we're all mandated to wear completely useless cloth and
Speaker 2: surgical masks for well, depending where you live. For a
Speaker 2: long time on planes. Oh God, smelling my own hot breath.
Speaker 1: It's almost hard to remember that that actually happened, and.
Speaker 2: I remember, yeah, nobody wants to talk about COVID, even
Speaker 2: though there's so many incredibly important lessons to be learned,
Speaker 2: it's a little discouraged. So how much of that was
Speaker 2: believing masks worked, and how much of it was we've
Speaker 2: got to do something to make people feel like, you know,
Speaker 2: you have agency so they might go about their business
Speaker 2: and keep the economy afloat. I'd like to know if
Speaker 2: that was the scheme. At times. I was sitting in
Speaker 2: a car dealer waiting room. I remember this so vividly,
Speaker 2: sitting there in my mask, smelling my own hot breath,
Speaker 2: my own hot coffee breath, as it was taking forever
Speaker 2: to do what I was trying to do.
Speaker 1: Not a sponsor of the show, by the way.
Speaker 2: And a guy refused to wear a mask, and the
Speaker 2: help there said, sir, you got to wear a mask
Speaker 2: or we got to ask you to leave.
Speaker 1: And he said, look at all you sheep, look at
Speaker 1: all you people. What's the matter with you?
Speaker 2: And he didn't really make a case, he didn't have
Speaker 2: an argument. He just had anger at that point, which
Speaker 2: is too bad. But I've thought about that moment, and
Speaker 2: you know, I was wearing a mask because I wanted
Speaker 2: to get the hell done with what I had to
Speaker 2: do and get out of there.
Speaker 1: Right, That's usually what motivated me. But is that being
Speaker 1: part of the problem.
Speaker 2: Well, it made sense to me that a mask was
Speaker 2: better than nothing at the time. Yeah, before i'd heard
Speaker 2: this surgeon talk. Yeah, I only thought at once, As
Speaker 2: I've told the story before, at the Oakland Zoo where
Speaker 2: the outdoor restaurant, they weren't going to serve me unless
Speaker 2: I had my mask on, even though the table where
Speaker 2: you could take your mask off was literally a dozen
Speaker 2: feet I'm going to walk over.
Speaker 1: There and sit down and take off my mask. Yes,
Speaker 1: please get me my food.
Speaker 2: And I just looked at them, and they looked at me,
Speaker 2: and they thought this guy looks like a crazy person.
Speaker 1: And they gave me my food. Yeah. That was the
Speaker 1: only time I threw a fit. Yeah. Oh.
Speaker 2: The other interesting thing this doctor says is that, look,
Speaker 2: surgeons work when they're sick all the time. That's interesting.
Speaker 2: All that time is really interesting. Even with a fever,
Speaker 2: surgeons don't take time off. There's too much at stake.
Speaker 2: Patients need life sustaining surgery, and that's what surgeons do.
Speaker 2: Flu snotty nose, sore throat, miserable yet under perfect control
Speaker 2: and safe and clinically sterile for the patient is what
Speaker 2: and who surgeons are My colleagues do it today.
Speaker 1: There's no time for playing hookey.
Speaker 2: Similar to being a disc jockey, as we had our
Speaker 2: essential badges that would allow us if we were pulled
Speaker 2: over on the way to work, to show it to
Speaker 2: the highway patrol and go ahead and be on our
Speaker 2: way peak behind the curtains. Jack uses the term disc
Speaker 2: jockey just to annoy me, and then well done, I
Speaker 2: am annoyed. We are not jockeying discs Uh. That was funny.
Speaker 2: That's my favorite thing of the whole COVID thing. I
Speaker 2: still have my essential worker badge and we were told
Speaker 2: we had to have it with us at all times. Guys,
Speaker 2: we were pulled over by the police because the CHP
Speaker 2: was doing spot checks to make sure you were essential.
Speaker 2: Luckily that crap never happened.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no kidding.
Speaker 2: They told us to stay indoors because of a respiratory virus.
Speaker 2: They wouldn't let kids play in the park because the rain.
Speaker 2: Ben Franklin understood how stupid that was. In the seventeen hundreds.
Speaker 2: That was COVID right there, nuff said, anthropomorphized or how
Speaker 2: whatever their word is, well done, Cash me outside, how
Speaker 2: about that?
Speaker 5: Take me off?
Speaker 1: I can't. I couldn't if I wanted too. All right,
Speaker 1: stay with us.
Speaker 7: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Nettanya, who was defiant, I want
Speaker 7: to make it clear, he said, we will hit Hesbelah
Speaker 7: mercilessly in all parts of Lebanon. The IDF says Hesbla
Speaker 7: tunnel complexes are launching pads for attacks into northern Israel
Speaker 7: that have displayed some seventy thousand Israelis.
Speaker 2: We're not looking to demolish nothing else but ris Balas,
Speaker 2: terror infrastructures, tunnels, arms, weapons.
Speaker 7: Israel is now fighting wars on two fronts against Iranian
Speaker 7: back terror groups. It is believed that an Israeli attack
Speaker 7: on Iran itself could come at any.
Speaker 2: Time, could come at any time. And according to open
Speaker 2: Source Defender, which is a great Twitter feed if you
Speaker 2: don't follow it, I don't have a website or not,
Speaker 2: but like all the smart people you like, follow this.
Speaker 2: They believe in their info they have today, according to
Speaker 2: a source who spoke with CNN, Israel's retaliatory strike against
Speaker 2: Iran is now ready. When they launched it, I don't know,
Speaker 2: but could be any moment. That'll be a heck of
Speaker 2: a thing. Channel fourteen in Israel I don't know anything
Speaker 2: about Channel fourteen but is reporting that the Israeli retaliation
Speaker 2: against Iran will be significant, not moderate, and will likely
Speaker 2: cause Iran to respond with them, further stating we need
Speaker 2: to prepare for a significant exchange of blows that might
Speaker 2: drag the Americans, in which Iran certainly.
Speaker 1: Would not want. Wow.
Speaker 2: And then this from Emmanuel McCrone of France. France and
Speaker 2: Great Britain announced last week, you go after Iran, we
Speaker 2: ain't helping, just letting you know, you got to let
Speaker 2: him just bomb the crap out of he as often
Speaker 2: as they want.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: Macrone actually said, mister Netanyahu must not forget that his
Speaker 2: country was created by a decision of the UN. Therefore,
Speaker 2: this is not the time to disregard the decisions of
Speaker 2: the UN. Well, I officially hate Macrone. That's pretty awful. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that is pretty freaking awful.
Speaker 1: I brought you into this world, I can take you
Speaker 1: out of it.
Speaker 2: Is that what you're saying, what's on the side of
Speaker 2: you should be disbanded as a country, right, like the
Speaker 2: terrorists want.
Speaker 1: For defending yourself, for defending yourself, what are they supposed
Speaker 1: to do?
Speaker 2: Just continue to take rocket attacks and the occasional massacre, right,
Speaker 2: missile attacks or yeah, uh, largest ballistic missile attack in
Speaker 2: world history.
Speaker 1: You must come to less ceasfire. Shut up, Macron. What
Speaker 1: is the thinking there? Is that just a demain?
Speaker 2: Is it just to keep his crazy radical Muslim population
Speaker 2: from wanting to kill him?
Speaker 1: Thing you think? Yes? Wow?
Speaker 2: To a large extent plus, there are people who actually
Speaker 2: and this is hard for me to say because it's
Speaker 2: so looney tunes, they actually think the un and negotiating
Speaker 2: can solve everything. That there's never a time to answer
Speaker 2: force with force, right, it's always the next resolution, that's
Speaker 2: the way you hand.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 2: We are now so much more evolved than the human
Speaker 2: beings of the entirety of human history that no matter
Speaker 2: how evil and malign a bully we run into, we
Speaker 2: will meet at the bargaining table and we will fashion
Speaker 2: an accord, an extraordinarily strongly worded resolution, the most strongly
Speaker 2: worded resolution in years. Yes, yes, of course the security
Speaker 2: counts as abstain.
Speaker 1: But right, yeah, okay, and.
Speaker 2: As listen to a podcast today the other day with
Speaker 2: the Great Charles C. Cook of National Review talking about
Speaker 2: the biggest difference between lefties and righty's is conservatives believe
Speaker 2: human nature is immutable. It's just it's always been the
Speaker 2: same way, it will always be the same way, and
Speaker 2: people on the left believe you can actually change it,
Speaker 2: or we have evolved to the point that will be
Speaker 2: peaceful people that don't want want to hurt others or
Speaker 2: take their stuff, and we'll all get along. And you're
Speaker 2: wrong by the way, people will after nuts. Yeah, what
Speaker 2: is your evidence that that could happen. There's no evidence.
Speaker 2: It's just a conceit.
Speaker 1: It's a near religious religious belief.
Speaker 2: I guess it's because you wouldn't take somebody's stuff or
Speaker 2: punch somebody in the face and take their watch.
Speaker 1: You believe it can be somehow taken out of.
Speaker 2: Other people, and you find it so impalatable to stand
Speaker 2: up to bullies. You don't want anybody to do it.
Speaker 1: Ah Armstrong and Getty
