WEBVTT - Monkey Drunk! 0:00:01.840 --> 0:00:06.160 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 0:00:06.200 --> 0:00:07.920 Washington Broadcast Center. 0:00:07.800 --> 0:00:11.680 Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty arm Strong and Getty and 0:00:12.440 --> 0:00:24.200 he Armstrong and Getty. 0:00:24.480 --> 0:00:28.040 Tesla announcing its profits have plunged a staggering seventy one 0:00:28.080 --> 0:00:30.880 percent in the first quarter of this year since CEO 0:00:31.000 --> 0:00:33.760 Elon Musk took a major role in the Trump administration. 0:00:34.200 --> 0:00:37.199 Musk telling Tesla investors he will soon be spending a 0:00:37.200 --> 0:00:39.800 lot more of his time focused on his business. 0:00:40.520 --> 0:00:44.240 The tribalism in so much of America, from car choices 0:00:44.360 --> 0:00:49.320 to the way the legal system behaves, really troubling. Equal 0:00:49.360 --> 0:00:51.840 treatment under the law seems to be gone, at least 0:00:51.840 --> 0:00:54.440 for certain people, many of them on the left. That's 0:00:54.440 --> 0:00:56.760 the topic I'd like to pursue with our guest in 0:00:56.880 --> 0:01:01.680 One of those subtopics is at least somewhat Tesla related, 0:01:02.160 --> 0:01:04.720 but Larry Goodman joins us. Larry's a retired judge for 0:01:04.800 --> 0:01:10.360 the Superior Court in Elama, California, and also happily Katie's dad. 0:01:10.440 --> 0:01:12.240 Hello, Judge Larry, how are you, sir? 0:01:13.160 --> 0:01:13.800 I'm doing well. 0:01:13.800 --> 0:01:15.920 How are you good? Good? 0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:18.440 I assume you're happily Katie's dad maybe I made a 0:01:18.520 --> 0:01:20.200 leap there that was inappropriate. 0:01:20.959 --> 0:01:24.760 No, it's been a total blessing. It's couldn't do better. 0:01:24.920 --> 0:01:28.720 At good answer, good answer. So he's on the record 0:01:28.840 --> 0:01:32.880 is loving his daughter. You'll see. I'd like to get 0:01:32.880 --> 0:01:36.119 a second witness anyway. Always great to talk. 0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:38.560 And there are a couple of excuses we had to 0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:42.280 call you up today, and one of them is this 0:01:43.400 --> 0:01:50.120 Democratic activist in Minnesota who committed over twenty one thousand 0:01:50.240 --> 0:01:56.440 dollars in damage to Tesla's across Minneapolis. This guy happens 0:01:56.520 --> 0:02:01.800 to be a state employees a fist policy analyst for 0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:07.000 the state of Minnesota, long history of anti Trump, pro 0:02:07.040 --> 0:02:10.959 Democratic posts on his social media. He was arrested and 0:02:11.040 --> 0:02:14.480 quickly released, and the prosecutor said, now we're going to 0:02:14.520 --> 0:02:16.679 put him in a diversion program and we will not 0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:18.080 charge him with any crimes. 0:02:18.120 --> 0:02:19.359 What's your reaction of that. 0:02:20.160 --> 0:02:23.720 Well, the prosecutor said, that way he'll make restitution, which 0:02:23.760 --> 0:02:27.799 we know he'll never make. But it's what they do. 0:02:27.960 --> 0:02:31.120 I mean, there's no it's a two tiered system of justice. 0:02:31.200 --> 0:02:34.120 If you're on our side, you get prosecuted, and if 0:02:34.160 --> 0:02:36.000 you're on their side, you don't. Depending on who the 0:02:36.080 --> 0:02:39.720 DA is, although I think more and more people are 0:02:39.760 --> 0:02:43.399 getting set up with that kind of lack of prosecution. 0:02:43.560 --> 0:02:45.680 We just saw that in now Lameda County where they 0:02:45.720 --> 0:02:49.000 recalled the DA saw it in Los Angeles where they 0:02:49.080 --> 0:02:51.919 got rid of gascon. So maybe the tide is changing 0:02:51.960 --> 0:02:52.440 a little bit. 0:02:53.000 --> 0:02:53.200 Yeah. 0:02:53.240 --> 0:02:56.640 Hennepin County, which is where Minneapolis is, has a long 0:02:56.800 --> 0:03:01.160 history of this. It's a blue blot in a otherwise 0:03:01.400 --> 0:03:06.320 fairly sane state. But like most of the violent George 0:03:06.320 --> 0:03:09.560 Floyd BLM rioters, not just the you know, maybe not 0:03:09.639 --> 0:03:13.760 just the loud, boisterous ones who may have shoved somebody 0:03:13.919 --> 0:03:16.959 or I don't know, thrown some No, like the violent ones, 0:03:18.000 --> 0:03:21.160 we're giving a free pass in Hennepin County. And you know, 0:03:21.639 --> 0:03:27.840 you've seen enough of the the repercussions of if you 0:03:28.000 --> 0:03:33.320 remove negative consequences for bad actions, you're just going to 0:03:33.400 --> 0:03:36.440 get more bad actions. And this guy or this system 0:03:36.480 --> 0:03:38.120 up there, man, they seem to be way to the 0:03:38.160 --> 0:03:38.680 left end. 0:03:39.600 --> 0:03:41.920 Well, they just sat around, if I remember correctly, while 0:03:41.960 --> 0:03:44.680 they were burning down towns and everybody just said, well, 0:03:45.400 --> 0:03:48.200 they have a right to express their frustration with what's 0:03:48.240 --> 0:03:51.320 going on. But in this this guy that got off. 0:03:51.400 --> 0:03:53.560 Did he actually worked for Walls? Didn't he at some 0:03:53.640 --> 0:03:56.880 point or in the government up there? He was? I 0:03:57.000 --> 0:04:00.640 saw his name connected with the almost to be Vice 0:04:00.680 --> 0:04:02.040 president Tim Walls. 0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:05.480 Yeah, he was fairly high up in the Minnesota DHS. 0:04:05.960 --> 0:04:06.440 I guess. 0:04:06.520 --> 0:04:09.680 But if you don't, if you don't punish behavior, then 0:04:09.760 --> 0:04:13.560 behavior continues. I mean, that's that's how we raise Katie. 0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:16.920 You know, if the bad behavior got punished. But if 0:04:17.320 --> 0:04:19.800 the same thing applies to courts, if that's why they 0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:22.400 went through the things in California where they made you 0:04:22.400 --> 0:04:25.200 could steal up to a nine hundred and fifty dollars 0:04:25.200 --> 0:04:27.240 and not be punished. So what did everybody do? They 0:04:27.240 --> 0:04:30.080 went out and sold nine hundred and fifty dollars over 0:04:30.160 --> 0:04:33.640 and over and over again. So if you don't prosecute 0:04:33.720 --> 0:04:37.000 or punish somebody that destroys Tesla's, they're going to keep 0:04:37.000 --> 0:04:41.360 destroying Teslas. I was. I'm curious to see whether Pam 0:04:41.400 --> 0:04:43.359 BONDI might figure out some way to make this a 0:04:43.400 --> 0:04:45.880 federal crime. I don't think it is, but it might 0:04:45.920 --> 0:04:47.919 be kind of ironic if all of a sudden the 0:04:47.920 --> 0:04:49.600 Feds came in and the rested him. 0:04:49.839 --> 0:04:52.760 Yeah, if I'm some young radical or not so young radical. 0:04:52.800 --> 0:04:55.520 This guy's hold enough to know better. And I see 0:04:55.520 --> 0:04:58.440 this guy did over twenty one thousand dollars in damages 0:04:58.480 --> 0:05:02.640 to Tesla's across many amp He's on videotape multiple times. 0:05:03.000 --> 0:05:05.320 He's it's utterly clear that it is him. It is 0:05:05.360 --> 0:05:08.760 a slam dunk prosecution, and he is just completely turned loose. 0:05:08.880 --> 0:05:11.560 I'm going to start defacing Tesla's. 0:05:12.600 --> 0:05:16.559 Absolutely, of course you are. And you know the question 0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:18.600 will be if you if you do it the right 0:05:18.640 --> 0:05:21.799 way and so you don't commit a federal crime, then 0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:26.200 you can continue to you know, damage Tesla's. And yeah, 0:05:26.240 --> 0:05:28.240 you're going to put you in a diversion program so 0:05:28.320 --> 0:05:31.560 you can make restitution. But I know from personal experience 0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:34.720 that most of the time restitution never gets paid. So 0:05:34.760 --> 0:05:36.560 he's going to get a pass on this whole thing. 0:05:37.279 --> 0:05:40.040 How do people get away with not paying the restitution? 0:05:42.080 --> 0:05:45.800 Nobody ever enforces it. I mean, we don't have debtors prisons, right, 0:05:46.240 --> 0:05:49.720 So if you're ordered to pay one hundred thousand dollars 0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:53.560 in restitution and you don't have a job, or you 0:05:53.960 --> 0:05:57.240 have a job that can you can't afford to pay 0:05:57.240 --> 0:06:00.120 that kind of money. You just don't pay it, you 0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:02.640 be violated on your probation maybe, but you can't be 0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:05.680 any consequences. You can't put somebody in jail because they 0:06:05.680 --> 0:06:06.839 can't afford to pay a debt. 0:06:08.080 --> 0:06:11.599 So we have posited many times. We're talking to Larry 0:06:11.640 --> 0:06:15.200 Goodman retired to Superior Court judge and elme to County, California. 0:06:15.680 --> 0:06:20.080 We've posited many times that people need to pay serious 0:06:20.120 --> 0:06:23.839 attention and bring serious energy to two things school board 0:06:23.880 --> 0:06:28.200 elections and local prosecutors county whatever prosecutors. 0:06:28.440 --> 0:06:33.440 Would you agree absolutely? I mean, that's how the other 0:06:33.520 --> 0:06:37.279 side gets the foot in the door is normally my 0:06:37.480 --> 0:06:39.560 experience has always been when I was actually on a 0:06:39.560 --> 0:06:43.480 school board for eight years. But that's where people get 0:06:43.520 --> 0:06:45.480 into politics, and that's where they get their foot in 0:06:45.520 --> 0:06:49.080 the door, and that's where they make grassroots decisions that 0:06:49.160 --> 0:06:51.719 affect people as they grow up. And then on the 0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:55.400 other side is the prosecutors. If you don't have law 0:06:55.440 --> 0:06:58.279 and order, you don't have a society. So you can 0:06:58.320 --> 0:07:00.960 indoctrinate people through school board words, and then you can 0:07:01.200 --> 0:07:04.240 can have a law and order or an effective society 0:07:04.279 --> 0:07:05.680 by how people are prosecuting. 0:07:06.839 --> 0:07:08.840 Final thing I wanted to ask you about Larry is 0:07:08.880 --> 0:07:10.800 the question of due process. 0:07:10.640 --> 0:07:11.600 It's it's a phrase. 0:07:11.640 --> 0:07:14.280 It's been thrown a lot around a lot in discussing 0:07:14.480 --> 0:07:16.960 various illegal immigrants, to getting heaved out of the country 0:07:16.960 --> 0:07:18.960 in one form or another, whether it's shipped down to 0:07:19.000 --> 0:07:22.960 that jail in El Salvador or Venezuelan gang members who 0:07:22.960 --> 0:07:25.840 flooded into the country under some Biden policies we discuss 0:07:25.880 --> 0:07:31.760 during our three I think it was anyway. Due process 0:07:31.800 --> 0:07:35.760 obviously is a sacred notion for citizens in the United States. 0:07:35.600 --> 0:07:39.120 It is the idea that the government can't behave arbitrarily, 0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:42.880 that they've got to go through the steps to prove 0:07:42.880 --> 0:07:44.960 that what they're doing is okay, because the founding fathers 0:07:45.000 --> 0:07:48.920 understood how power corrupts. But when you hear the phrase 0:07:49.000 --> 0:07:53.120 due process thrown around in terms of like the immigration topic, 0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:55.520 what do you wish people understood. 0:07:56.200 --> 0:08:01.240 Well, the due process depends upon what the procedure is 0:08:01.240 --> 0:08:03.920 the due process and a criminal trial is a lot 0:08:04.160 --> 0:08:07.480 different than a due process on an immigration hearing or 0:08:08.200 --> 0:08:11.480 presenting probable cause to an immigration judge whether somebody should 0:08:11.480 --> 0:08:14.920 be deported or not. So people you throw that around, 0:08:15.000 --> 0:08:20.000 but it's a job specific term. Due process means different 0:08:20.000 --> 0:08:24.240 things depending upon the procedure that's being applied. So they 0:08:24.240 --> 0:08:26.320 can set up and say, yeah, he didn't get due process, 0:08:26.360 --> 0:08:28.440 Well maybe he did. Maybe it all takes is a 0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:31.640 probable cause statement to an immigration judge to find that 0:08:31.680 --> 0:08:34.360 he's a member of a gang. That's the due process 0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:34.760 he got. 0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:38.640 So yeah, maybe the best way to illustrate it, illustrate 0:08:38.720 --> 0:08:40.720 it is to flip it on its head and ask 0:08:40.920 --> 0:08:45.080 what process is due here? I mean, like I would 0:08:45.120 --> 0:08:48.840 have different due process for would you like to go 0:08:49.040 --> 0:08:50.200 for coffee sometime? 0:08:51.120 --> 0:08:53.120 From will you marry me? 0:08:53.640 --> 0:08:58.200 There's different due process processing those two questions. 0:08:58.960 --> 0:09:02.720 There absolutely is, but it's the same because you have 0:09:03.760 --> 0:09:08.080 protections against the arbitrary actions of the government, and depending 0:09:08.080 --> 0:09:12.360 on what action the government's taking would determine how much 0:09:13.200 --> 0:09:15.440 due process you're entitled to. I guess is the best 0:09:15.440 --> 0:09:17.880 way of putting it. But right now it's just becoming 0:09:17.920 --> 0:09:20.120 the catch. It's the phrase of the week, or the 0:09:20.160 --> 0:09:22.720 phrase of the last two weeks. Do process due process? 0:09:23.080 --> 0:09:24.480 You know, right? 0:09:24.480 --> 0:09:26.120 And it kind of hurts my heart to hear it 0:09:26.920 --> 0:09:29.600 misused because it's such a fundamental principle in the country. 0:09:29.640 --> 0:09:33.320 But again, what processes do in this circumstance. It varies 0:09:33.320 --> 0:09:37.200 case by case, in situation by situation. Larry Goodman retired 0:09:37.240 --> 0:09:40.160 to Superior Court Judge, Alma County, California. Larry, it's always 0:09:40.240 --> 0:09:42.599 great to talk. Don't be a stranger. Let's do it 0:09:42.600 --> 0:09:43.080 again soon. 0:09:44.559 --> 0:09:47.120 Thanks for having me, and I'm usually always available. 0:09:47.120 --> 0:09:50.439 I'm retired, all right, we will hit you up. Thanks 0:09:50.880 --> 0:09:55.520 a lot more to come. Want to get into a 0:09:55.559 --> 0:09:57.400 couple of other things that I was kind of hot 0:09:57.400 --> 0:10:02.040 to trot for, including the Maryland parental rights opt out 0:10:02.080 --> 0:10:05.320 policy case that the Supreme Court just heard oral arguments for. 0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:11.280 You can't believe a the perverse stuff being taught to 0:10:11.320 --> 0:10:15.520 the kids, and b how young they were in Maryland, 0:10:15.760 --> 0:10:17.839 and the school district was saying to parents, no, we're 0:10:17.840 --> 0:10:19.400 not going to tell you what you're teaching, and no 0:10:19.600 --> 0:10:23.240 you don't get to opt out even for preschoolers. 0:10:23.480 --> 0:10:29.319 Stay with us, Armstrong, Hetty, do you regret saying that 0:10:29.360 --> 0:10:32.839 President Biden had a mental acuity, He had a sharpness 0:10:32.880 --> 0:10:35.720 to him. He said that up until July of last year, 0:10:36.600 --> 0:10:39.200 I said what I believed to be true. And do 0:10:39.240 --> 0:10:40.400 you think he was as sharp as you? 0:10:41.800 --> 0:10:46.439 I said, I had not seen decline and I hadn't 0:10:46.800 --> 0:10:47.480 at that point. 0:10:47.480 --> 0:10:49.760 You did not see any decline from twenty twenty four 0:10:49.840 --> 0:10:51.520 Joe Biden to twenty twenty one Joe Biden. 0:10:52.520 --> 0:10:58.559 Oh, when I said that he does the thing is heap? Look, 0:10:59.679 --> 0:11:03.559 he was sharp, he was on his feet. I saw 0:11:03.600 --> 0:11:06.760 him live event, I had meetings with him. 0:11:06.800 --> 0:11:11.360 A couple of Tom Senator on his feet is not praise. 0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:16.520 He can speak in sentences is not praise fair enough? 0:11:17.640 --> 0:11:19.840 So that sound I like Elizabeth Warren who's interviewing him. 0:11:19.880 --> 0:11:23.840 Yes, Sam Fragoso, whose work I don't know, but Sam 0:11:24.040 --> 0:11:27.080 was frank and fair and also damn right. 0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:28.200 Well she lives. 0:11:28.280 --> 0:11:31.480 You're making a jackass yourself. Yeah, she and everybody else 0:11:31.520 --> 0:11:33.280 is in a tough position. You're either going to have 0:11:33.320 --> 0:11:37.160 to go full. I thought it was best for the 0:11:37.200 --> 0:11:44.600 country that Biden wins, So I misled people about how 0:11:44.640 --> 0:11:46.520 sharp he was because I thought the most important thing 0:11:46.559 --> 0:11:49.240 was defeating Trump. That actually is not I think a 0:11:49.240 --> 0:11:52.360 lot of Democrats would. 0:11:52.120 --> 0:11:52.880 Forgive you for that. 0:11:53.280 --> 0:11:56.880 The pretending you didn't notice is just nonsensical. 0:11:57.360 --> 0:12:02.120 Yeah, which it really? Which is the more damaging tack 0:12:02.400 --> 0:12:04.440 to take? I think the first one's way better. 0:12:04.440 --> 0:12:07.520 Well, the truth is generally better almost in every situation 0:12:07.600 --> 0:12:12.400 in life, with very few exceptions. But I think also politically, 0:12:12.400 --> 0:12:14.480 I think he'd be better off. Look, I thought Trump 0:12:14.559 --> 0:12:19.640 was such a danger, and I thought he was okay 0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:23.439 enough at least for the time being. 0:12:23.280 --> 0:12:24.480 That I was okay with it. 0:12:24.920 --> 0:12:26.440 And if I was going to spin it, if I 0:12:26.480 --> 0:12:30.480 was a Democrat consultant, I'd say and say this, and 0:12:30.960 --> 0:12:33.320 then I believed he would quickly give way to the 0:12:33.400 --> 0:12:36.280 Vice President Kamala Harris, who almost won the last election. 0:12:36.920 --> 0:12:40.280 Yes, that's way better than claiming you didn't notice. 0:12:40.360 --> 0:12:44.560 I mean, that's just hilarious. Yeah, that's aw unless you 0:12:44.600 --> 0:12:47.640 want to get he's got to stutter, Michael, you make 0:12:47.679 --> 0:12:53.480 fun of people with stutters. He's got dementia.

Jd 0:13:42.920 --> 0:13:45.280 Vance with more today standing in front of a plane 0:13:45.280 --> 0:13:47.840 on a tarmac before he has going somewhere. Vice President 0:13:47.920 --> 0:13:50.880 jad Vance, who may have killed the Pope, threatened to 0:13:50.960 --> 0:13:55.320 abandon Russia and Ukraine peace negotiations ahead of the high 0:13:55.320 --> 0:13:57.840 stakes meeting in London where the two warring nations are 0:13:57.880 --> 0:14:01.560 to discuss Trump's final awe, which is what they're calling it. 0:14:01.600 --> 0:14:05.000 They're calling this the final offer, which is you know, 0:14:05.200 --> 0:14:09.200 that's straight out art of the deal. But we've issued 0:14:09.200 --> 0:14:13.440 a very we've issued a very explicit proposal to both 0:14:13.480 --> 0:14:16.320 the Russians and Ukrainians, and it's time for them to 0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:18.320 either say yes or for the US to walk away 0:14:18.320 --> 0:14:22.120 from this process. Events told reporters we've engaged in an 0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:27.280 extraordinary amount of diplomacy. Yeah, all completely one sided. Hey, Ukraine, 0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:30.160 you need to give away everything they've taken and continue 0:14:30.160 --> 0:14:34.400 to have them on your border with the threat that 0:14:34.440 --> 0:14:36.520 they can come back anytime, with no assurances from the 0:14:36.520 --> 0:14:38.480 rest of the world that we could stop them if 0:14:38.480 --> 0:14:41.120 they did. Russia, you get to keep everything you took, 0:14:42.960 --> 0:14:43.520 but we'd like. 0:14:43.480 --> 0:14:47.280 To stop public facing stance. Yeah. 0:14:47.320 --> 0:14:51.640 Well, I've always thought that. I've always hoped there was 0:14:51.680 --> 0:14:54.360 something going on behind the scenes that was tougher on 0:14:54.480 --> 0:14:57.160 Russia is part of Ukraine. 0:14:57.280 --> 0:15:00.120 But if there is, certainly has been reported yet, and 0:15:00.840 --> 0:15:02.920 so what it looks to me like is going to happen. 0:15:02.960 --> 0:15:05.320 So we've been saying for a long time is Putin's 0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:07.440 got no reason to quit now. There was a report 0:15:07.480 --> 0:15:09.640 that came out the other day that Russia has maybe 0:15:09.720 --> 0:15:12.720 six months more that they can do this financially and 0:15:12.720 --> 0:15:13.800 in terms of manpower. 0:15:13.840 --> 0:15:14.440 Then they're just. 0:15:14.640 --> 0:15:21.160 Out of gas because they're burning through between the two sides. 0:15:21.240 --> 0:15:24.160 What did I read the other day thousand and a 0:15:24.200 --> 0:15:27.960 week deaths or something like that, just unimaginable numbers. I mean, 0:15:28.000 --> 0:15:30.720 you know, we were in a rack for fifteen years, 0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:33.000 we were in Afghanistan for twenty years. We didn't get 0:15:33.000 --> 0:15:35.240 the kind of numbers they get in a month in 0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:39.920 terms of casualties. But anyway, if that's true, then maybe 0:15:40.000 --> 0:15:41.680 Russia's not in the position we think of it. But 0:15:41.880 --> 0:15:44.320 it sure looks like Russia's got no reason to quit, 0:15:45.840 --> 0:15:49.680 and so they aren't going to And so our stance 0:15:49.760 --> 0:15:52.080 is going to be this was our last deal or 0:15:52.120 --> 0:15:53.880 walking away working out amongst yourselves. 0:15:54.520 --> 0:15:55.200 Yeah, I don't know. 0:15:55.560 --> 0:15:58.960 I don't know, because uh Trump, it seemed to me 0:15:59.760 --> 0:16:02.520 was going easy on and flattering Putin to get him 0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:05.000 to the table and try to cut the best deal 0:16:05.080 --> 0:16:08.080 that he could. But Trump also has a long history 0:16:08.120 --> 0:16:10.840 of if you give me the middle finger after I've 0:16:10.880 --> 0:16:15.320 given you that treatment, brace yourself because I'm going to 0:16:15.360 --> 0:16:20.440 bring the hate. So do we just abandon Ukraine in 0:16:20.440 --> 0:16:22.880 a way that you've more or less described here, or 0:16:22.920 --> 0:16:25.360 does it go the other way and Trump decides to 0:16:25.400 --> 0:16:27.800 lower the the the boom on Putin? 0:16:28.160 --> 0:16:30.880 Well, I think we'll know if in weeks, if not days, 0:16:31.280 --> 0:16:34.920 which direction that is? Yeah, yeah, probably so. 0:16:35.720 --> 0:16:38.120 And will we continue to arm Ukraine the way we 0:16:38.200 --> 0:16:42.760 have in the past or more or not at all? 0:16:42.960 --> 0:16:46.640 Did I mention the wild chumps indulging in booze fueled 0:16:46.680 --> 0:16:50.960 feasts that's coming up next half hour. The actual interesting 0:16:51.120 --> 0:16:55.320 scientific aspect to this groundbreaking and shocking new video. And 0:16:55.320 --> 0:16:57.680 there actually is kind of a scientific insight to. 0:16:57.600 --> 0:16:58.120 Be had here. 0:16:59.120 --> 0:17:03.080 And also the the Maryland school opt out case, what 0:17:03.280 --> 0:17:08.360 was said the Supreme Court really interesting and so perverse. 0:17:08.600 --> 0:17:09.840 Don't be so specific? 0:17:10.119 --> 0:17:13.600 Do you take the fun out of booze fuel, chip feasts, 0:17:15.000 --> 0:17:16.159 Armstrong and getty. 0:17:17.560 --> 0:17:21.600 We will prevail in a fight over parental and religious rights. 0:17:21.760 --> 0:17:25.480 The ninth Supreme Court justices waded into the classroom at 0:17:25.520 --> 0:17:29.080 issue whether Montgomery County, Maryland should reinstate an opt out 0:17:29.080 --> 0:17:32.560 policy for parents who don't want their children, some as 0:17:32.600 --> 0:17:37.080 young as kindergarten learning from books containing LGBTQ and other 0:17:37.160 --> 0:17:38.320 controversial themes. 0:17:38.560 --> 0:17:42.800 There wasn't coercion here, that it was mere exposure. I 0:17:43.000 --> 0:17:47.399 understood from the record that all that was required is 0:17:47.440 --> 0:17:49.680 that the books be put on the bookshelf. 0:17:49.960 --> 0:17:52.680 It has a clear moral message, and it may be 0:17:52.760 --> 0:17:53.480 a good message. 0:17:53.480 --> 0:17:55.639 It's just a message that a lot of religious people 0:17:55.680 --> 0:17:56.359 disagree with. 0:17:57.080 --> 0:18:01.040 We're talking about a Supreme Court case. The oral arguments 0:18:01.080 --> 0:18:06.320 were heard yesterday Montgomery County, Maryland schools, saying parents do 0:18:06.400 --> 0:18:10.480 not have the right to know about the sexually explicit 0:18:10.840 --> 0:18:13.560 gender ideology lessons in public schools, and they do not 0:18:13.720 --> 0:18:17.080 have the right to opt their children out for any reason, 0:18:17.560 --> 0:18:24.000 including religious reasons. Now, of course, well here's here's the 0:18:24.040 --> 0:18:25.879 other side, with typical rhetoric eighty two. 0:18:26.000 --> 0:18:31.440 Michael, the opposing side also at the court today, we know. 0:18:32.160 --> 0:18:36.320 That a number of our kids are LGBTQ plus and 0:18:36.400 --> 0:18:39.440 the reality that we're talking about today is people want 0:18:39.480 --> 0:18:44.440 to erase us from books, they want to erase us 0:18:44.640 --> 0:18:46.320 from existing. 0:18:46.720 --> 0:18:48.840 Right, and all the kids will commit suicide. Yeah, we've 0:18:48.840 --> 0:18:51.639 heard it before. Here is what we're talking about. 0:18:51.720 --> 0:18:51.960 Jack. 0:18:53.640 --> 0:18:56.760 Imagine if you're four year old was given a book 0:18:58.440 --> 0:19:02.919 with a fine the word list like a puzzle, and 0:19:02.960 --> 0:19:12.000 your four year old is supposed to find the words intersex, flag, drag, queen, underwear, leather, 0:19:13.119 --> 0:19:17.479 xo xo, and more from their preschool teacher. 0:19:18.800 --> 0:19:22.240 Okay, I don't want that. That's from my fourteen year old. 0:19:22.400 --> 0:19:25.440 This is kids as young as three, and again, parents 0:19:25.520 --> 0:19:27.160 have no right to hear about this and no right 0:19:27.200 --> 0:19:31.760 to opt out the kids. Erase the gay community, right, 0:19:31.800 --> 0:19:34.800 and they'll all commit suicide. Yes, and mock Moon versus Taylor. 0:19:34.880 --> 0:19:37.680 Religious parents are asking the highest court to roll rule 0:19:37.720 --> 0:19:43.080 the Montgomery School Systems policy unconstitutional for obvious reasons of 0:19:43.119 --> 0:19:45.719 faith and that sort of thing. They are not asking 0:19:45.760 --> 0:19:49.360 the school district to remove the books from the classroom, 0:19:49.800 --> 0:19:53.680 or even the removal of the ideological sexual material from. 0:19:53.440 --> 0:19:56.080 Instruction, which I would like them to do. They are 0:19:56.119 --> 0:20:00.919 merely asking for the right to be notified in the school. 0:20:01.480 --> 0:20:05.560 No, No, they shouldn't be teaching radical gender theory to kids. 0:20:06.080 --> 0:20:08.440 Good lord. And there's a long. 0:20:08.240 --> 0:20:10.560 Standing precedent, so many of us have dealt with this 0:20:10.640 --> 0:20:13.679 through the years of you can opt out of various 0:20:13.720 --> 0:20:16.920 aspects of sex education through the years. 0:20:16.920 --> 0:20:19.159 You've actually looked into that fairly recently, right. 0:20:19.280 --> 0:20:27.280 Yeah, okay, so this is what Also, it's very hard 0:20:27.320 --> 0:20:30.720 to have a handle on what you're opting out of 0:20:30.760 --> 0:20:33.480 and what will still be in Yes, I mean, unless 0:20:33.520 --> 0:20:35.400 you're going to go sit in the class every day. 0:20:35.800 --> 0:20:35.960 Oh. 0:20:36.000 --> 0:20:41.359 The activists are absolutely shameless in lying or hiding, lying 0:20:41.400 --> 0:20:43.080 about or hiding what they're teaching. 0:20:43.240 --> 0:20:44.840 So Ashley maguire. 0:20:44.480 --> 0:20:46.880 Wrote this piece for the National Review, and obviously from 0:20:46.880 --> 0:20:51.640 context you can figure out that she lives here there 0:20:51.680 --> 0:20:54.199 in that county, she says, but my home county is. 0:20:54.240 --> 0:20:55.520 Bizarrely dug in. 0:20:56.080 --> 0:20:59.320 The booklist is part of a broader initiative in MCPS 0:20:59.320 --> 0:21:04.320 that Schooled is focused on pre K pre K through 0:21:04.400 --> 0:21:09.560 fifth grade titled building Community with LGBTQ plus affirming picture 0:21:09.600 --> 0:21:13.200 books for kids who are so young they can't really 0:21:13.240 --> 0:21:16.199 read about it. It's picture books, According to slides from 0:21:16.240 --> 0:21:18.920 the initiative, which were presented to teachers and obtained by 0:21:19.000 --> 0:21:22.959 one news outlet, because they had to dig and find 0:21:23.000 --> 0:21:26.440 this secret stuff because it was being hidden from the community. 0:21:26.880 --> 0:21:28.960 Teachers have been given a certain quote of these books 0:21:28.960 --> 0:21:31.359 to use in the classroom and can expect these lessons 0:21:31.440 --> 0:21:35.840 to be quote embedded throughout. 0:21:36.080 --> 0:21:37.680 And when why don't. 0:21:37.480 --> 0:21:39.760 More teachers come forward and say, look at this crap 0:21:39.800 --> 0:21:40.760 that they're making me teach. 0:21:41.720 --> 0:21:44.639 Because they see that the administration, their fellow teachers are 0:21:44.720 --> 0:21:47.080 arrayed against them, they go along to get along and be. 0:21:47.119 --> 0:21:49.200 Risking your career, which is easier said than done. 0:21:51.000 --> 0:21:55.280 Yeah, let's see quote. As with all curriculum resources, there 0:21:55.320 --> 0:21:58.639 is an expectation that teachers utilize these inclusive texts and 0:21:58.720 --> 0:22:02.080 lessons with all students. Parents were told when parents sued 0:22:02.160 --> 0:22:05.240 one group of activists supporting the initiative actually docks the 0:22:05.320 --> 0:22:08.240 names of the families on Twitter. They wrote, if these 0:22:08.240 --> 0:22:13.800 are your children's classmates. You have a duty to shun them. 0:22:13.840 --> 0:22:16.879 So again, so you understand what we're talking about. 0:22:17.119 --> 0:22:22.320 The curriculum resources include books such as Pride Puppy. Oh, 0:22:22.600 --> 0:22:26.400
