1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:04,000 Speaker 1: Government schools are in steep and rapid decline, but at 2 00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:07,560 Speaker 1: least they're also crazy expensive and a waste of money. 3 00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:11,639 Speaker 1: The Clintons are being deposed Hillary today, Bill tomorrow, will 4 00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:16,959 Speaker 1: anything come out of it? And queering the Bible a 5 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 1: heretic who calls himself a pastor will get the full 6 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:24,240 Speaker 1: tongue lashing that I expect to give in the Thursday tribunal. 7 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:26,239 Speaker 1: My name is Jobob. Thanks so much for tuning in. 8 00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:36,320 Speaker 1: The show starts right now. Constantly there are people talking 9 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: about government schools and they need more funding and abolishing 10 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:42,800 Speaker 1: the Department of Education is the worst thing that could 11 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 1: happen to the kids. But like I mentioned, government schools 12 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,920 Speaker 1: are declining rapidly from test scores and just the overall 13 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 1: feeling about them. But at the very least the good 14 00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 1: news is they are also extraordinarily expensive and waste tax 15 00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: payer money, except, of course, some instances where that's not happening, 16 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 1: which we will get to some encouraging news out of 17 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,039 Speaker 1: government schools from a place that you may not expect. 18 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 1: Before we get into that, I gotta remind you TPT 19 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 1: at tposa dot com is the email address if you'd 20 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 1: like to send along your thoughts, comments, concerns, even criticisms, 21 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 1: and if those emails or comments wherever it is that 22 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: you happen to be watching this on social media are disgusting, nasty, bigoted, 23 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 1: and vile, they will actually fit in with the show. 24 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: Several of you have taken that to task and write 25 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 1: these crazy headlines with words that I can't say here 26 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 1: on this show.

Keep them vile, keep them nasty and disgusting, 32 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 1: because that's what we're all about here, obviously satirically. 33 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 2: Other thing, I. 34 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 1: Am going on the road doing some comedy shows.

Please stay 43 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: tuned to those as they get announced. Like I mentioned, 44 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: government schools tragically have been falling and declining in the 45 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 1: perception of the American public. Again, who knows why? Well, 46 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 1: actually I kind of happen to know why, and we'll 47 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 1: get to that in just a second. 48 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 2: But I want to set this all up. 49 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: Last month there was a really really interesting piece in 50 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal by Jason C. Riley, Sorry Jason Riley, 51 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: see Riley. That's the actor Jason Riley, entitled to save 52 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: public schools, say pay say public education. Look at Mississippi. 53 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,519 Speaker 1: Now there's a lot going on. Don't have time to 54 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 1: get to all of the things, but this has been 55 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 1: on the back burner for a really long time, and 56 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 1: the more I think about it, the more important I 57 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: think it actually is, especially in the context of this 58 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 1: national conversation about education and schools and money and funding 59 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,359 Speaker 1: and the Department of Education and Trump and the school 60 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: districts and the unions and all of these things are 61 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: actually super important. So with that, I think it's important 62 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: to realize what's working, what isn't, what's expensive, what isn't 63 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: and have a better understanding of what we should do 64 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: going forward. Regarding government education, Jason Riley starts off with 65 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: saying there's a national crisis in the public education, which 66 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 1: is a shock and new information to just about no one, 67 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: and cites the fact that public trust in the US 68 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: government school system has fallen into a twenty four year 69 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: low because of obvious reasons, several of which are exemplified 70 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: in cut six. 71 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 2: Happy Pride. We celebrated pregnant and our kindergard classroom by 72 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 2: making our very own pride flags, build of attributes of 73 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 2: things we are proud of about ourselves. First, who read 74 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 2: some stories about the origin of the prife flag. 75 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 3: Then we watched a video about what each of the 76 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 3: colors of the Prie flag. 77 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 4: I do get called miss Maestro and mister maestro in 78 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 4: the same vein. 79 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 3: I don't love it, but I get that they're confused. 80 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 3: We have a lot of English language learners at this school. 81 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 3: I'm not going to be that mad about miss and 82 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 3: mister maestro. 83 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:26,600 Speaker 4: It's pride. So many people already think I'm in doctrinnading 84 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 4: the youth. Well, right now, it's June, so you kind 85 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 4: of am Yeah, yeah, I'm bringing blues clues, pride, I 86 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 4: am bringing queer portraits, are learning about the privee flag, 87 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 4: we are reading the books. 88 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 1: How on earth did Americans trust in public education fall 89 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: so far so fast? Nobody has any idea, and we 90 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: may never know, except for the fact that so many 91 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: of these types of clips have been floating around the 92 00:04:55,640 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: Internet for the last several years, prompting the question, what 93 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: the hell are they doing in government schools? Where are 94 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: our tax dollars going? And outside of the expense of 95 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: it all, holy cow, what are they doing to the kids? 96 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 1: A kid going to that classroom is going to come 97 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:17,279 Speaker 1: out with a distorted view of the world, and that 98 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,239 Speaker 1: is bad for everyone. Not only is it a waste 99 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 1: of money. You're not producing contributing members to society. You're 100 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 1: producing people who will go end up spending exorbitant amounts 101 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 1: of money on fancy private universities who take them in 102 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: because they want their money, go into massive debt, having 103 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 1: learned absolutely nothing except for how to disrupt police operations 104 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: in the guise of a quote unquote protest. Bottom line is, 105 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,160 Speaker 1: nobody is shocked at the public trust in the institution 106 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 1: of education. More broadly, in this country has fallen too, 107 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 1: a twenty four year low. 108 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 2: But the question is, well, how do you fix it? Well, 109 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:01,359 Speaker 2: if you ask libs, you just have more money. Now. 110 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 1: Just before that, the latest National Assessment of Education Progress 111 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,559 Speaker 1: scores fourth grader and eighth graders showed the lowest reading 112 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: and math performance skills in decades. And then that is 113 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 1: just one example of a widespread stagnation or decline overall. 114 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,720 Speaker 1: But again, the only thing we need to fix that 115 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 1: is money. I mean, I could have pulled a billion 116 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: of these types of clips, but I figure, why not 117 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: knock one Congress froman ilhan Omar who's been constantly in 118 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 1: the news. This is just one example of many Libs 119 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: saying that exact thing. We need more money. 120 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 5: We cannot afford for funding to fall back to pre pandemic. 121 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 4: Levels because we know if school. 122 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 5: Funding increases students academic outcomes improved. 123 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,720 Speaker 2: Is that true, though? Is that accurate? 124 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: When school funding goes up, do the academics actually improved? 125 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: Short answer, no, but we'll get to that in just 126 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: a second. She said something really interesting there that I'd 127 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: like to touch on, that we cannot go back to pre 128 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 1: pandemic school funding. If you remember during the pandemic. There 129 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: is a one point nine trillion dollar bill passed in 130 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: the first month of President Biden's term, and it just 131 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 1: gave a bunch of money to a bunch of different schools, 132 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: and the Libs are saying, we don't want that to stop. 133 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 2: Now. 134 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 1: The reason they're saying that is because they're beholden to 135 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 1: the teachers' unions, and the teachers unions, interestingly enough, care 136 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 1: about the teachers instead of the students. They're the ones 137 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: who kept schools shut down. They're the ones who lobbied 138 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: for more and more and more and more of your 139 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: tax day or pair dollars to not improve anything. And 140 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: now you have Libs saying, well, the only way that 141 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: we can ensure that public education gets back on the 142 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: right foot is we give them more money. This is 143 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: a case all over the country, but in New York 144 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: States specifically, lawmakers are pushing to restructure the finances of 145 00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: New York City's public schools and give them an additional 146 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: billion dollars in funding, according to New York City's Independent 147 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: Budget Office. Now there are several different people arguing, well, okay, 148 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 1: is that actually going to make a difference New York 149 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: and New York City specifically already pay a substantial amount 150 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: more per student per year than other places around the country. 151 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: Is that going to make a difference? But of course, 152 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 1: unfortunately the conversation stops there. Well, no, we just need 153 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 1: more money for the kids, and if you argue against it, 154 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 1: you get hit with the why don't you care about children? 155 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 6: Well? 156 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 1: I do, which is why I don't think more money 157 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: is the fix. More money actually goes straight into the 158 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 1: union's pockets and unfortunately produces more mediocre or below average 159 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 1: teachers and all of the wokeness that you see in 160 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:53,079 Speaker 1: the classroom. But I think the best example is what 161 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 1: Jason Riley pointed out in his articles to save public 162 00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 1: Education Look at Mississippi. Mississippi, interestingly enough, is a surprising 163 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 1: success story. When you think of higher education generally, I 164 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: would imagine Mississippi doesn't come to the top of mind. 165 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: It was once ranked near the bottom nationally regarding all 166 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 1: education at the lower levels, not the higher education, but 167 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 1: grade school to high school. Now, however, it has emerged 168 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 1: as a leader in academics according to these same studies 169 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: that rank the entirety of the US government school system. Now, 170 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: you might ask yourself Okay, well did they get more money? 171 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 1: The answer is no, they didn't at all. Not only 172 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:45,199 Speaker 1: that their spend per student is substantially lower than those 173 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: of New York and the academics are actually doing better. 174 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 2: How did they do it? 175 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:53,679 Speaker 1: Riley explains in their piece, And this is going to 176 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: shock so many of you. I wouldn't was just floored 177 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 1: by this information drove the turnaround was the state adopted straightforward, 178 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 1: evidence based approaches to focusing on fundamentals rather than progressive methods. Again, 179 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: I strap your seat belts in, folks, this is a 180 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 1: wild ride. What they did was, instead of promoting the 181 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 1: hot new thing in teaching, which often never works, they 182 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 1: went back to basics. They took the woke stuff out 183 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,079 Speaker 1: of the classroom, because of course they did, and also 184 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:34,839 Speaker 1: said common core math doesn't really work. Hey, maybe when 185 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: you're gonna add fifty four plus sixty two, you shouldn't 186 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 1: separate the two and the six and then the five 187 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 1: in the four over here and then bracket those by 188 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 1: ten into Jersey. No, just teach kids how to add, 189 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: like they've been doing for the last one hundred years. 190 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: And yes, the public school system hasn't been around for 191 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 1: hundreds and hundreds of years, but education and how you 192 00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: teach people has all of the new ways of doing 193 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 1: things so often is just to please the teachers' unions 194 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: and to get grant money to fund the research for 195 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 1: stuff that doesn't end up working. Mississippi put an emphasis 196 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: on phonics again, shocking sounding words out hearing them in 197 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,440 Speaker 1: your head, as opposed to this site reading idea, which, 198 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 1: by the way, if you do you can still learn 199 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 1: how to read through phonics and then eventually get to 200 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 1: the site reading that the new wave schools are producing. 201 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 1: I know that because that's what I do. I'm a 202 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:37,200 Speaker 1: site reader by nature. I just kind of skim through words. 203 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 1: I don't sound them out anymore, but they didn't just 204 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 1: come naturally. That's kind of what I progressed to to 205 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 1: try and teach students how to do that in the 206 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: early phases of learning have just shown to be confusing 207 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: to them. Mississippi dubbed now the Mississippi Miracle has said, well, 208 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:58,079 Speaker 1: maybe we should go back to the basics on phonics, 209 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 1: and maybe we should not do all of this new 210 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 1: progressive nonsense. Mississippi also stuck to higher academic standards, accountability measures, 211 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: and reforms that they enacted around twenty thirteen, including a 212 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 1: third grade reading level gait that held students back if 213 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 1: they couldn't read it, among many other standards. In other words, 214 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 1: places like California, in places like New York, if you 215 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: don't know this, if you are of the age of 216 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,439 Speaker 1: the grade, it does not matter if you've met the 217 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: standards of that grade. If you can do math at 218 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 1: a kindergarten level, but you're in the fourth grade, the 219 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 1: fourth grade teacher doesn't say, hey, we want to keep 220 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: you back because we want to help you out. Instead, 221 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: they say, no, Johnny, you just go right on ahead, 222 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 1: go to fifth grade knowing absolutely nothing, because we need 223 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: our money, and we don't get our money if you 224 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 1: get held back. 225 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:52,319 Speaker 2: We don't get our test scores, We. 226 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 1: Don't get any of the other privileges that we get 227 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: as the teachers' unions, which is overpay in so many 228 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 1: different instances, which it now it's a tangent. I probably 229 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: should go on, but I won't right now for the 230 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 1: sake of sticking to the topic. But the teachers' unions 231 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 1: get their bucks if the test scores show that you 232 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,839 Speaker 1: are passing even though you can't read at the level 233 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 1: that you're supposed to read bottom line. Mississippi said, uh yeah, 234 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 1: we're gonna not do that. They focused on critical score 235 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: course skills instead of lowering expectation, great inflation, or easing 236 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:27,320 Speaker 1: graduating requirements. Now, if you're not hipped to this, like 237 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: I said, in California and New York, instead of keeping 238 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: the kids to the high standard that they should be, 239 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 1: the schools so often lower the standards, like oh, hey, 240 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 1: you know, a C used to be average, but maybe 241 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 1: now C just goes to everybody and an A is average. 242 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 1: We see this even in better schools, where a ton 243 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 1: of students are getting a's, which statistically and mathematically just 244 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 1: shouldn't work out that way. An A is exemplary and 245 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: A is the top of the class, and not everybody 246 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 1: can be the top of the class. Harvard had a 247 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 1: lot of problems with this and still has problems with this, 248 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 1: giving out a bunch way too many high grades. Now, 249 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 1: higher education is obviously different. I personally think more people 250 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,440 Speaker 1: should fail out of higher education because that kind of 251 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 1: separates the week from the chaff here. But we're not 252 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 1: necessarily talking about higher education through these groundbreaking reversions back 253 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: to what people have been doing for the last thousand years, 254 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: Mississippi has climbed dramatically in the national ranks fourth grade 255 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: reading scores. In twenty thirteen, when they kind of started 256 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 1: to implement all of this, were at forty ninth in 257 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 1: the nation out of fifty one because people often include Washington, 258 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 1: d C. But bottom line is they were at the 259 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 1: bottom when all of this started. Nowadays, according to that 260 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 1: National Academic Excellence Program, I think that's what that acronym 261 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 1: was called. Hold on, let me National Assessment of Educational Progress, 262 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: they're now in the top ten. Went from forty ninth 263 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 1: to the top ten. There are strong gains across all demographics, 264 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: including low income and minority students. When adjusted for demographics Minnesota, 265 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 1: Mississippi ranks among the top, including near to number one. 266 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 1: The overall leadership in the progress and performance compared to 267 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 1: other states, despite lower pupil spending is astronomically high. In 268 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 1: other words, the bang for the buck is also massive 269 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: in the state of Mississippi. How massive? What is the 270 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 1: actual contrast? Just for reference, Mississippi and surrounding states like Alabama, 271 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: who have also kind of implemented some of these tactics, 272 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 1: spends between twelve thousand and thirteen thousand dollars per pupil 273 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: per year. Okay, well, what does New York City spend? Oh? 274 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 2: Is it fifteen thousand, sixteen thousand? 275 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: No? Okay, twenty thousand, twenty five thousand, No. New York 276 00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: state average spends thirty two thousand dollars per year per student. 277 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 1: New York City specifically, who is set to get another 278 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 1: billion dollars, spends forty two thousand dollars per student per year, 279 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 1: and they are falling behind places like Mississippi. Louisiana even 280 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 1: is doing pretty well. Alabama's doing pretty well because they 281 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 1: reverted back to the things that we've always done. Those 282 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 1: states are spending multiples less than the biggest technologically advanced 283 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:33,760 Speaker 1: New York City and getting better results. 284 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 2: Who would have thought. 285 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: Like I mentioned at the onset of this, this is 286 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 1: not groundbreaking information. We have all seen what schools unfortunately 287 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 1: have become. The wokeness in the classroom, the pride flags everywhere, 288 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: the lack of teaching the normal core curriculum reading, math, writing, reading, 289 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: arithmetic wasn't old enough to have all of those like 290 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:07,879 Speaker 1: slang terms. But yeah, the core subjects being taught in 291 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 1: schools reverting back to that actually improves student outcomes. And remember, too, 292 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 1: by the way, you're forced to pay for government schools. 293 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 1: So wouldn't you want the bang for your buck that 294 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,119 Speaker 1: the government is promising that kids will be educated and 295 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 1: then people will inter society to be productive members of society. 296 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,679 Speaker 1: Isn't that the whole goal of education, not just to 297 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: spend money that the teachers' unions can get as much 298 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 1: as they want for as little as they do for 299 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 1: the students, like in New York City, like in Chicago, 300 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: like so many of these deep blue states and cities 301 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: that have massive speed teachers unions slush funds, and their 302 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 1: academics are suffering in light of all of that. Bottom 303 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,160 Speaker 1: line is you don't have to spend a ton of money, 304 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:56,399 Speaker 1: and Mississippi should serve as a stark example of what 305 00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 1: can be done if only you revert back the things 306 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:04,920 Speaker 1: that have worked for the last thousand years regarding education 307 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 1: or broadly. If you have any thoughts on this, I'd 308 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,359 Speaker 1: love to hear them. Tpt ATPUSA dot com is the 309 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:15,160 Speaker 1: email address. Let's see, there are there's so many things 310 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 1: that we want to get to today, including the Hillary 311 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:23,160 Speaker 1: Bill Clinton. The Hillary and Bill Clinton depositions that are 312 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: happening in there. Is it in their house? 313 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,360 Speaker 2: Somebody pretty sure? Let me know that. 314 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 1: I don't think it's actually in their house, but it's 315 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 1: in the city that they own home. And also there's 316 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 1: a queering the Bible. It's apparently a new thing, and 317 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 1: we will get to that in the Thursday Tribunal, the 318 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 1: Justice Thursday segment. 319 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 2: That is so much fun to do. We'll be right 320 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,880 Speaker 2: back after the break. Don't go away. 321 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 5: The quit whinding these days. 322 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 2: I paid off my cut of loans. 323 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 5: And I bought like I'm five hundred thousand dollars starter 324 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,240 Speaker 5: home and still go in and get colebrew every single 325 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 5: morning from my favorite coffee shop. 326 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 2: Where I'm getting at is. 327 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,199 Speaker 5: I shop sales, I use points for travel. I had 328 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 5: roommates throughout my twenties. I'll bring my lunch to work. 329 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 5: I had gamgam pay off my student loans and. 330 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 2: Buy me a house because I'm your special little grandson. 331 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,120 Speaker 5: But I also got peacock with ads point is invest 332 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 5: in saved. 333 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 2: I'd be the first half. 334 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 1: You know, I understand that things are a little bit 335 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 1: more difficult than they may have been in the past. 336 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:28,199 Speaker 1: I am fully cognizant of that, and I have no 337 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 1: problem with people helping out their kids or their grandkids. 338 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 1: What I do have a problem with is people thinking 339 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: that they did it all by themselves. I mean, there 340 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,120 Speaker 1: are people that've done it all by themselves, which is great, 341 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 1: and this is what that's what this country is for. 342 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:43,920 Speaker 1: You can you can pull yourself up, you can do 343 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 1: the hard work, and you can save money. And as 344 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:49,120 Speaker 1: a guy who saves money and has been fortunate enough 345 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,960 Speaker 1: to do some pretty cool things, I get that. 346 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 2: But what I don't like is. 347 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 1: If you know somebody bought you a house and you 348 00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 1: act like you did it by yourself, don't don't don't 349 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: be a poser. You did it by yourself. 350 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 2: Great, But if if you. 351 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: Got some help, which I don't mind people doing, you 352 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:06,639 Speaker 1: just can't claim that. 353 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 2: Look at Hall was from everything for me? Wow? 354 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 1: What time? That's? 355 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 2: What time it is? Say what time? 356 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 7: Is it? 357 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 2: Irrelevant? What time it is? What time it is? Now? 358 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 2: It is time to get to the point, get to 359 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:24,879 Speaker 2: the poem, get to the phone. 360 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: Lots of points to get to today. Well, let's start 361 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 1: it off at the top of this with Hillary Clinton 362 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 1: testifies in the House Epstein probe at the point in 363 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 1: time that we're talking about this. I think it got paused. 364 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:42,880 Speaker 2: Because there's some leaked photos, but I think it's. 365 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 1: Continued on underway, the closed door interview with the House 366 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 1: Oversight Committee, with Representative Comber heading that up. We've been 367 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,159 Speaker 1: talking about this for now months. I think this is 368 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: finally it. It's happening. Hill's testifying behind closed doors closed doors. 369 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 1: I'm not entirely sure of the reasoning behind that. Allegedly, 370 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,159 Speaker 1: Supposedly the Clintons are like, hey, we want to do 371 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:09,200 Speaker 1: it in front of the cameras. I'm not entirely sure 372 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 1: of the back end finaggling going on there, but I 373 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 1: don't We'll all find out together what kind of comes 374 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 1: out of this. I'm be completely totally blunt and honest 375 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:24,440 Speaker 1: with you, folks. Care more about Bill and that's happening tomorrow. 376 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 1: I don't particularly care about Hillary. 377 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:27,360 Speaker 2: I did. 378 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,360 Speaker 1: I'm no way shape or for him a fan of her. 379 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 1: I don't think she is uh will come out of 380 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: this unscathed. But I really care more about what they're 381 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 1: gonna ask the former president of the United States, not 382 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 1: the failed presidential candidate, who, yes, is a very bad person, 383 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: very involved in some very bad things. But I think 384 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 1: what I'm ultimately saying is I'm more interested in what's 385 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 1: gonna happen with Bill tomorrow. But good old Hills testifying today, 386 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: freaking Finally there's much news being made too. This is unorthodox. 387 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: How is the first time and however long that it? Yeah, well, 388 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:04,880 Speaker 1: guess what you know? What else is unorthodox? 389 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 2: All of this? So Pound sand this is what you know. 390 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 1: It was unorthodox when they arrested a former president for 391 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:15,640 Speaker 1: crimes that they made up. So spare me the This 392 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,479 Speaker 1: is unorthodox, and therefore it is bad. Now we've been 393 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 1: wanting this for a while, and now it's finally happening, 394 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,439 Speaker 1: and we'll kind of get to what comes out of 395 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 1: it when all of that stuff is said and done. 396 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 1: Next point across the coast to California. Governor Newsom space 397 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:37,640 Speaker 1: and callsed resign over the release of a monster convicted 398 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:44,800 Speaker 1: serial child abuser. This is actually very interesting, and it's 399 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 1: interesting in the sense that you need to know from 400 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 1: around the country what kind of insanity is going on 401 00:22:53,000 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 1: here in California. This guy was charged, convicted, and sentenced 402 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 1: of abusing multiple children. He was sentenced to three consecutive 403 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 1: twenty five to life terms, plus after that an additional 404 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 1: twenty five years. So why is Governor Newsom being called 405 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 1: to resign? Well, because he might get out. He's sixty 406 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 1: four years old and he's potentially going to get out. Well, 407 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 1: why three consecutive twenty five years to life terms that 408 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 1: that shouldn't happen, plus an additional twenty years that there's 409 00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: no way, Well except for the fact that in twenty 410 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:34,639 Speaker 1: twenty California passed a bill encouraging elderly parole. Hey, if 411 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 1: you're old, Yeah, you may have murdered a bunch of people, 412 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: but yeah, we're gonna make you eligible for parole because 413 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 1: you're elderly. And then, obviously the question is, well, what 414 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,679 Speaker 1: makes someone elderly? How old do they have to be 415 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 1: to be elderly? And again, strap in. 416 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 2: Your seats, both, folks. 417 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 1: There's gonna be a several of you in the audience 418 00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:55,399 Speaker 1: that are going to be very, very upset about this 419 00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,119 Speaker 1: because you fall into the category of what this bill 420 00:23:58,320 --> 00:23:59,400 Speaker 1: calls elderly. 421 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 2: This calls elderly fifty send your emails TBTATBUSA dot com. 422 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 2: Does that make you mad? It makes me mad. 423 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,479 Speaker 1: I'm not fifty years old, but that that's fine a 424 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:13,919 Speaker 1: fifty year old if you're not one yourself, or if 425 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: you're below that age and co holy crap, fifty is elderly. Yeah, 426 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 1: right there, I guarantee you there's some fifty two year 427 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,880 Speaker 1: old that is frantically emailing the show TBTATPUSA dot com. 428 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 2: By the way, if you'd like to send that emails. 429 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 1: Saying California thinks I'm elderly. Anyways, the elderly parole, you 430 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 1: have to meet two qualifications. You have to have been 431 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 1: in jail for twenty years and be fifty years old. 432 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 1: This child abuser, convicted serial child abuser, meets those qualifications, 433 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:46,360 Speaker 1: and therefore he might get out of jail, because California 434 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:50,359 Speaker 1: is where sanity goes to die. Now, the headline here 435 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 1: is a little bit, probably a little bit rambunctious. Governor 436 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 1: dows some phasing calls to resign. That's this end normal 437 00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 1: day for him. Everybody wants him to resign at all times, unless, 438 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:02,879 Speaker 1: of course, you're bought. 439 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 2: By the unions, in which case you don't care either way. 440 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 2: You're just like, I just. 441 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 1: Need my paycheck to keep coming in, because that's how 442 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:14,440 Speaker 1: Corruptifornia operates and runs its business. But us normal folks 443 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 1: have been calling for his resignation his first day in office. 444 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 1: So the headline may be a little bit blunt, maybe 445 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:24,919 Speaker 1: a little bit repetitive in the sense that we continually 446 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 1: call for govern Newsom's resignation, but this is one of 447 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:34,120 Speaker 1: those that should be. This should be bigger news. California 448 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:40,920 Speaker 1: is freaking out of its mind speaking of children here, 449 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 1: and this is some good news actually, going from terrible 450 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 1: news to some decent news, or at least I think 451 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 1: this is decent news if it's actually enacted in the 452 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 1: way that it's being portrayed. Instagram to alert parents when 453 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 1: teens search for info on suicide or self harm. This 454 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 1: is from CBS News that as Instagram will soon notify 455 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:05,359 Speaker 1: parents via email, text, or WhatsApp or the in app 456 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 1: messages if their team repeatedly searches for suicide or health 457 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: self harm related in a short period of time. My 458 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 1: questions are, what is repeatedly and what is a short 459 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 1: period of time? 460 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 2: Other than that, probably a good idea. 461 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 1: Now, okay, before you send your emails, which, by the way, 462 00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:27,239 Speaker 1: TPT atpsdate dot com, yes, I am aware and I 463 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 1: agree with you. The best is just don't let your 464 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 1: kids go on social media, as much as you can 465 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 1: try to keep them off of social media. Now, in 466 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 1: the event that they are on social media, this seems 467 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: like a decent option. The new safeguard, started rolling out 468 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 1: first in the US, UK, Australia, and Canada, includes a 469 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 1: bunch of different resources, including blocking content for miners who 470 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 1: are searching for destructive content or seeing destructive content. 471 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 2: Now, are they perfect in this? 472 00:26:57,400 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 1: No? 473 00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:01,160 Speaker 2: Should we believe them that they are being perfect in this? No? 474 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 1: But at the same time, this is at least a 475 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 1: step in the right direction they gotta do. There's a 476 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:07,879 Speaker 1: lot bigger of a burden of proof to show me 477 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 1: that you actually care about kids, And there's that whole 478 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 1: lawsuit going on in California as well. Zuckerberg testified on 479 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 1: whether or not his platforms are intentionally addictive to kids, 480 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 1: which that hasn't been decided yet, so we'll kind of 481 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 1: keep an eye on that. But overall, I just maybe 482 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: I'm I don't know, too optimistic about things, But this 483 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 1: seems like a decent step in a decent direction. 484 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:40,639 Speaker 2: Not just not to absolve them of any guilt and. 485 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 1: None of the other circumstances, but this is a good 486 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:47,679 Speaker 1: start hopefully things continue to go in that direction. Speaking 487 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:52,160 Speaker 1: of tech and robots getting into the silly points here. 488 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:54,160 Speaker 2: I know there's a lot of news going on around. 489 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 1: The day, but I assume you watch a bunch of 490 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:57,520 Speaker 1: news prior to this, and. 491 00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:58,120 Speaker 2: Now we're getting some sillies. 492 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 1: Guy accidentally takes command of seven thousand robots in the 493 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 1: homes of seven thousand strangers while trying to control his 494 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 1: vacuum with a game pad. It's from PC gamer. A 495 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 1: software engineer discovered a security vulnerability in the DGI DJI 496 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 1: Romo vacuums while trying to control his own device with 497 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: his PS five game pad and accidentally. 498 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 2: I have no idea how much of an accident it was. 499 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,399 Speaker 1: If this guy's a programmer, I think he probably maybe 500 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 1: knows a little bit more and authorized access to seven 501 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 1: thousand robots worldwide, he obtained live video feeds of Oh wow, now. 502 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 2: That gets it. 503 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 1: That's that's even worse, live video feeds floor plans. How 504 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 1: much of this was an accident? The title says accidentally, 505 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 1: but it looks like he actually did some digging, y all, 506 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,840 Speaker 1: and I analyzed the network traffic with the claud code, 507 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: which is one of their big AI systems and thropics. 508 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 1: That's their clawed is their AI obtained a bunch of 509 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:11,239 Speaker 1: stuff d DJ. I quickly patched the main vulnerability and 510 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 1: then acknowledge them back end permission issues which yet out 511 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 1: that would be a big problem again. Bottom line here again. 512 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 1: You can email TBT ATVs A dot com. I know 513 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,239 Speaker 1: some of you are already frantically writing, this is why 514 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 1: you don't have robots in your house. 515 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 2: Agreed. 516 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 1: I've wanted a rumba or one of those like automatic 517 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 1: ones because our house is all wood and it. 518 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:35,880 Speaker 2: Just it gets dusty. 519 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 1: We have pets, dogs, kids, It's very dusty all the time, 520 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 1: and I feel like I vacuum, like the majority of 521 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 1: the day. I do this show and then I vacuum 522 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,640 Speaker 1: and then sleep occasionally. Those are the two things that 523 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 1: I do.

Because of course, 536 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 1: government run programs are just the worst thing in the world. 537 00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 1: They're launching this new pilot program station audio advertisements in 538 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 1: select subways and commuter rail stations, playing thirty second ads 539 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 1: every ten minutes up to seventy five decibels starting in 540 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:53,080 Speaker 1: June and saving you all the details.

We're flipping 584 00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 1: the order a little bit. We have we generally have 585 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 1: our official business segment.

It gets more aggressive every 593 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 1: week than I remember it being on today's Justice Thursday, 594 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 1: the Thursday Tribunal in which I either decide to indict 595 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:33,880 Speaker 1: and then prosecute, and then m the jury and find 596 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:37,080 Speaker 1: someone guilty or not, and then also the judge sentencing 597 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:39,920 Speaker 1: them to whatever it is that they should be sentenced to, 598 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 1: usually exile or execution. One of those two things is 599 00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:46,479 Speaker 1: usually the sentences I've laid down upon people in this 600 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 1: Justice Thursday segment. 601 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:50,719 Speaker 2: All of those things are happening today. 602 00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 1: We're gonna take a look at a I'm hesitant to 603 00:33:55,560 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 1: call some folks pat is pastor priest, say he's a 604 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 1: guy standing at what looks to be a Christian pulpit 605 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 1: talking about queering the Bible. And I recognize as just 606 00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:10,200 Speaker 1: playing this may have upset some of you folks, and 607 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:13,400 Speaker 1: that's fine, totally understandable TBT ATBs dot com if you 608 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:13,839 Speaker 1: don't want. 609 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 2: Me to play this sort of stuff. 610 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 1: But at the same time, I think it's worth looking at, 611 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 1: especially when people like this guy think they're making this astute, learned, 612 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:30,360 Speaker 1: educated academic point, when in reality they're not tethered to reality. 613 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,640 Speaker 1: Watch this and we will discuss, and then again, of course, 614 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:36,320 Speaker 1: I will pass binding judgment. 615 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:41,840 Speaker 2: To this individual when the court has finished. 616 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: Its investigation into whether or not this person has violated 617 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 1: some sort of crime that I have imposed. 618 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 2: Cut eight. 619 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:56,360 Speaker 7: Queering the Bible takes Jesus and other outsiders and religiously 620 00:34:56,480 --> 00:35:03,440 Speaker 7: stigmatized folks in the past and juxtaposes them with contemporary 621 00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 7: queer folks and Christians, realizing that despite our past cultural differences, 622 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 7: sexual and gender differences, that we share similar histories of 623 00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 7: out of placeness or vilified sexualities and gender diversities. Jesus 624 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:32,320 Speaker 7: Kingdom practice is queer in the sense it questions identities 625 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:34,480 Speaker 7: and blurs distinctions. 626 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:39,680 Speaker 1: Now blurring the language is what these folks do so often. 627 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 1: And when you don't have an objective language or objective meaning, 628 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:48,359 Speaker 1: objective truth, then really anything can be true. Go read 629 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,399 Speaker 1: Abolition of Man. Maybe we'll reference that in a little bit. 630 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 1: But I think the point he's trying to make if 631 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:55,600 Speaker 1: we're trying to take him at his word, now, obviously 632 00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 1: I think this is heretical. 633 00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 2: But if we're. 634 00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:01,879 Speaker 1: Taking him at what he's saying, is what he actually thinks. Okay, well, 635 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:06,280 Speaker 1: there's several problems with that thinking. In the bigger video, 636 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 1: he kind of talks about, well, Jesus ate with a 637 00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 1: diverse group of people. Now, obviously Jesus dined with tax 638 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:15,319 Speaker 1: collectors and folks that weren't super well looked upon in 639 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 1: the community, and that is true. Now the difference is 640 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,799 Speaker 1: what this guy says as well. He also then affirmed 641 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,760 Speaker 1: everything at the table. Now that's not exactly what he said, 642 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:30,160 Speaker 1: but that's what he means using invoking the well Jesus 643 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:32,880 Speaker 1: ate with people that were different than him, He ate 644 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:36,920 Speaker 1: with people that weren't liked in society. Again, accurate, but 645 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 1: the goal there was to bring them over to his 646 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 1: side of viewing the world, to bring him over to 647 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:47,960 Speaker 1: this new way of life that he was bringing into existence. 648 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 1: It wasn't to say, sit down with the tax collector 649 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:54,239 Speaker 1: and say hey, uh hey, you're probably swindling people in 650 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 1: that's okay because you're just doing you, which is effectively 651 00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 1: the argument that this. 652 00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 2: I don't want to say the air take is making. 653 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 1: He's saying, well, because Jesus wanted to have a big tent, 654 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:15,840 Speaker 1: that must mean that he's accepting of all the things 655 00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:16,279 Speaker 1: in the tent. 656 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:19,960 Speaker 2: Okay, just factually inaccurate. 657 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:23,760 Speaker 1: When Jesus said he who's without sin cast the first stone, 658 00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:25,880 Speaker 1: what he didn't say. 659 00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:31,320 Speaker 2: Is, eh, all of you are right. Everybody here is accurately. 660 00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 1: Describing what is going on, and they themselves are correct, 661 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 1: and I will affirm you in your correctness. 662 00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:39,360 Speaker 2: No, there's a right and a wrong. 663 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 1: And just because Jesus ate with sinners, which he did 664 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 1: on purpose, doesn't mean he's condoning the sin, doesn't mean 665 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:52,520 Speaker 1: he's affirming the things that people are doing in those 666 00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:55,640 Speaker 1: diverse settings, which is what this guy is effectively trying 667 00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:59,080 Speaker 1: to make the claim of, Oh, I don't know, look Jesus, 668 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:02,279 Speaker 1: what Jesus was doing, He's just eating with people of 669 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:07,280 Speaker 1: different sexual idea. Whatever it is that they have, Jesus 670 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:09,960 Speaker 1: was there for them. And that's true. Jesus is there 671 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,440 Speaker 1: for them, but that doesn't mean he condones that sort 672 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:13,360 Speaker 1: of behavior. 673 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:15,120 Speaker 2: Now, what's really interesting about. 674 00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:16,919 Speaker 1: This and why I kind of wanted to talk about 675 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:18,880 Speaker 1: this a little bit more, is it just kind of 676 00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:23,239 Speaker 1: happens to fit in with a Passages. Just happened to 677 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:25,479 Speaker 1: be and I was happened to be reading Timothy too. 678 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:33,360 Speaker 1: I'm into the pastoral epistols right now. First Timothy, second Timothy, 679 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 1: and Titus. We don't need to get into all of 680 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 1: that sort of stuff. I just happened to be reading that, 681 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,719 Speaker 1: and I came across I just I love this quote, 682 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:44,000 Speaker 1: and I think this passages verse and I feel like 683 00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:47,760 Speaker 1: it's super applicable to today with a lot of things 684 00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:52,120 Speaker 1: going on, this guy included. But can you be expanded 685 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 1: outward from there? But let me just read this to you. 686 00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:59,520 Speaker 1: This is two Timothy three one through eight English Standard version. 687 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 1: But understand this. In the last days, there will come 688 00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:06,720 Speaker 1: times of difficulty for people will be lovers of self, 689 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:13,719 Speaker 1: lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, appeasable, unappeasable, 690 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:18,840 Speaker 1: slanderous without self control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, 691 00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:23,400 Speaker 1: swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 692 00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 1: having the appearance of godliness but denying its power. Avoid 693 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 1: such people. By the way, this is a letter attributed 694 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,279 Speaker 1: to Paul. A lot of people think it's Paul. There 695 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:36,440 Speaker 1: are some scholars that say, and we're not entirely sure 696 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:38,400 Speaker 1: if this was Paul or not. But he's basically teaching 697 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:43,160 Speaker 1: passors how to kind of participate in the church more broadly. 698 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 1: But then he says this, for among them are those 699 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:52,720 Speaker 1: who creep into households, households and capture weak women, burdened 700 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:56,920 Speaker 1: with sins, and let us stray by various passions, always 701 00:39:57,040 --> 00:40:00,360 Speaker 1: learning and never able to arrive at a non knowledge 702 00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:05,520 Speaker 1: of the truth. Now, I understand, might be a little 703 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:08,000 Speaker 1: bit a little bit of a hit at women there, 704 00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:15,680 Speaker 1: But how encapsulating is that of what's going on in 705 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 1: so many different areas of our modern culture. There's the 706 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:25,000 Speaker 1: inability to settle at a truth, an inability to settle 707 00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 1: at an objective reality, an objective truth of God's design, 708 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:37,960 Speaker 1: And instead this well we're just asking questions. Sure, okay, fine, 709 00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:41,240 Speaker 1: But also you do need to settle at some point. 710 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 1: The Bible talks about, yeah, gather as much knowledge as 711 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:46,920 Speaker 1: you can, but at a certain point you have to 712 00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 1: accept what the reality of the world is, what God's 713 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,359 Speaker 1: design is, what human nature is, what truth is. 714 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,280 Speaker 2: And if you never do that, if you're. 715 00:40:55,160 --> 00:41:00,279 Speaker 1: Always gaining knowledge but never arriving at the knowledge of 716 00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:04,879 Speaker 1: the truth, always learning but never arriving at reality, then 717 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 1: what's the point of learning. Then everything is pliable, everything 718 00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:12,719 Speaker 1: is flexible, there's nothing standard set in stone, which then 719 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:16,680 Speaker 1: just leads you into utter chaos, as we've seen in 720 00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:21,840 Speaker 1: this church but also in many, many other places, where 721 00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:27,880 Speaker 1: the reality of what exists is But folks who really 722 00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:33,279 Speaker 1: really are unsettled with honestly many things in their own 723 00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:36,920 Speaker 1: life continue to learn more and more and more but 724 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:41,600 Speaker 1: can never settle on the truth, which is a bigger, 725 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:52,839 Speaker 1: more expansive problem, but applies very much to this theoretical pastor. Oh, 726 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,279 Speaker 1: that's right, it's judgment Thursday, so I will I will 727 00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:57,279 Speaker 1: indict him for. 728 00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 2: Ridiculousness. 729 00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:02,479 Speaker 1: I'm not entirely sure if that's a crime. Go ahead 730 00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:06,479 Speaker 1: and check the constitution. I think it's Article nine, which 731 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 1: is yes, in fact a new article. I invented two 732 00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:12,440 Speaker 1: more articles and Article nine does say I am allowed 733 00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:16,279 Speaker 1: to dictate what the rules are, and one of the 734 00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:19,360 Speaker 1: rules are ridiculousness. So yes, he's brought on charges. There, 735 00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,759 Speaker 1: the jury, which includes myself, finds him guilty and as 736 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:27,800 Speaker 1: the judge, I I sentenced him to exile. 737 00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:33,000 Speaker 2: In Canada. I feel like that's appropriate and that is 738 00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 2: my verdict. 739 00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 1: Thank you so much for tuning it as it's been 740 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 1: a tribunal Thursday judgment Thursday, and also I hope you 741 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:40,319 Speaker 1: gained a. 742 00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:41,040 Speaker 2: Little bit out of that. 743 00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:45,520 Speaker 1: Maybe let me know TTTPUSA dot com. We'll be right 744 00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 1: back in the normal order of the show.

The 755 00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:31,600 Speaker 3: situation in Canada is absolutely dire for Americans who don't know. 756 00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:35,400 Speaker 3: The housing crisis here is worse than in the United States. 757 00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:38,440 Speaker 3: I lived in LA for six years and I have 758 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:42,320 Speaker 3: not faced rent as bad as here. When my partner, 759 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:46,319 Speaker 3: our cat, and our dog fled the United States, we 760 00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:50,799 Speaker 3: headed north with the goal of being close to our 761 00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:54,320 Speaker 3: our families are located, which is on the west coast, 762 00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:58,719 Speaker 3: so we are now in British Columbia. More specifically, we 763 00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:01,839 Speaker 3: are in the see A sky Highway in the Greater 764 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:07,120 Speaker 3: Vancouver area. We are attempting to find housing in the 765 00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:11,200 Speaker 3: western side of this region. My partner and I are 766 00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:16,360 Speaker 3: here on a visitor visa, which is six months possible 767 00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:19,800 Speaker 3: stay for Americans. But while you're here on a visitor visa, 768 00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:23,160 Speaker 3: you can't work. So we are currently surviving off of 769 00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:27,640 Speaker 3: what savings we could get together before we fled the 770 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:32,239 Speaker 3: United States, and that's not terribly much. And in Canada, 771 00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:35,840 Speaker 3: I think it's actually the cost of living crisis is 772 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:38,920 Speaker 3: worse here, especially when you are shut out of the 773 00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:42,200 Speaker 3: healthcare system when you can't access any of the resources 774 00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:46,239 Speaker 3: that Canadians have access to. And that's understandable. You know, 775 00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:48,200 Speaker 3: I'm not a citizen of the country, but it is 776 00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:52,320 Speaker 3: making the financial situation dire because we can't work. 777 00:44:56,200 --> 00:45:02,280 Speaker 1: That might have been the dumbest thing I've ever seen. Okay, 778 00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:06,520 Speaker 1: So an academic who studies the right wing, she's an 779 00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:09,280 Speaker 1: expert in the right wing. They is an experts probably 780 00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:13,279 Speaker 1: they maybe a zz i'mser sir, is an expert in 781 00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:17,120 Speaker 1: the right wing, decides this country sucks, I'm moving to Canada, 782 00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:22,600 Speaker 1: and then realizes, oh crap, this country sucks worse and 783 00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:28,439 Speaker 1: I can't work because Canada apparently enforces immigration. Okay, cool, 784 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:31,840 Speaker 1: I'm good for you on that one. Canada, Uh can't work, 785 00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:35,680 Speaker 1: can't access any of the social systems, and can't afford anything, 786 00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:40,799 Speaker 1: all due to a self inflicted mental illness. That said 787 00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:43,520 Speaker 1: you had to flee the country. That's like cutting off 788 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:46,200 Speaker 1: your arm and then complaining that it's difficult to do 789 00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:50,640 Speaker 1: things with one arm. But I don't know I zerote 790 00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:55,799 Speaker 1: sympathy for that. Sorry, all right, well I probably do 791 00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:57,400 Speaker 1: a whole podcast on that, lady. 792 00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:05,000 Speaker 2: Sorry that they them or they of themser zerzim that 793 00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:06,359 Speaker 2: we can't do that. We have time. 794 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:14,520 Speaker 1: It is time, though, to get to official business. Holy 795 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:15,920 Speaker 1: cal look at the time. We don't have time. We 796 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:17,399 Speaker 1: don't have a ton of time to get to official business. 797 00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:19,560 Speaker 1: Let me let me just fly through some of these. 798 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 1: This is a Peggy Flanning and the Lieutenant governor of 799 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:26,160 Speaker 1: Minnesota when asked, Hey, the whole fraud thing that's happening 800 00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:29,000 Speaker 1: over there is what does that look like nowadays? 801 00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:30,280 Speaker 2: Here is her response. 802 00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:33,200 Speaker 1: I see the allegations of fraud and read those demands 803 00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:36,840 Speaker 1: and say those are reasonable and that Minnesota should comply 804 00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:41,040 Speaker 1: with that. Do you how do you see that?
