Now, some 41 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 2: of you who are into the Epstein story, I've already 42 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 2: seen this commentary that man that really got under his skin, 43 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 2: didn't it in a way that other things might not. Okay, 44 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 2: the whole Epstein thing. So you hang in there, You 45 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 2: hang in you hang in there. We're going to get 46 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 2: into play in some of the clips from the oil 47 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 2: arguments from the Supreme Court taken up finally, the topic 48 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 2: of is there such things as boys and girls and 49 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 2: should girls participate in boys or should boys be in girls' sports? 50 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 2: And blah blah blah, all that sort of stuff that 51 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 2: we should have probably settled several years ago. What's your 52 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 2: takeaway from reading a lot about this and listening to it. 53 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 1: Where do you think the Supreme Court is on this? 54 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 2: It's almost certainly going to go the right way. It's 55 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 2: you got you know, it's a cliche at this point. 56 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 2: You can't leap to too many judgments for the reasons 57 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 2: we've discussed many times. Sometimes they will ask tough questions 58 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 2: of the person they agree with to make sure their 59 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 2: argument is solid, and it sounds like skepticism, but it's 60 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 2: just care, it's just thoroughness. But having said that, even 61 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 2: like Ilanta Kagan, who I said k JB kbj JP 62 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 2: K is DEI hire or something yesterday, Ilanta Kagan is brilliant. 63 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 2: She is a brilliant legal mind. I mean just amazing. 64 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 2: Agree with her a lot, but boys, she's smart. Even 65 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 2: she seemed to and we'll play the relevant audio later on, 66 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 2: but she seemed to realize that you can't like carve 67 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 2: out a sub section of women, that is dudes who 68 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 2: claim to be women and took lots of hormones and 69 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 2: maybe puberty blockers to the point that blank blank blank, 70 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 2: according to science, that is that is that a and 71 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 2: they get to be honorary women. 72 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 1: It's just unworkable. 73 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 2: Do you think it's going to have greater ramifications around 74 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 2: the whole trans issue than just the idea of boys 75 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 2: and girls sports in high school? I yes, although, boy, 76 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 2: the soups are good at narrowing the effects of their 77 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 2: decisions when they want to. I don't understand how it 78 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 2: couldn't have a wider effect, but you know, it remains 79 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 2: to be seen. 80 00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: I mean, look it. 81 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 2: You know what I think jack, the big effect is. 82 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 2: And it's a shame that this is true, but I 83 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 2: think it's true. It will give permission to many, many people, 84 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 2: people of authority and just average people to say, you know, 85 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 2: there's men and there's women, and that's just a simple 86 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 2: fact at which which for some reason has gone out 87 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 2: of fashion in the first in the last ten completely 88 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 2: effing insane years. 89 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like the Ricky Gervais thing. 90 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 2: And I don't remember what his premise is, but it's 91 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 2: something about, you know, no nobody made rules for this 92 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 2: ten years ago, because. 93 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: We didn't think we had to. Well, right, it was absurd. 94 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 2: It would be absurd to even bring it up, which 95 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 2: you know, the neo Marxist exploit. 96 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,119 Speaker 1: But that's discussion for another moment. 97 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 2: Got to be so crazy. If you could have a 98 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 2: time machine to be able to go back in time 99 00:05:54,640 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 2: and and like ask somebody a question about this and 100 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 2: have them say what I mean, you wouldn't have to 101 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,679 Speaker 2: going back far either, Like when Barack Obama was president? 102 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 1: Can you ask some people about this stuff? And they 103 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 1: would say, what are you talking about? 104 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 2: We're thinking of putting a rapist in a women's prison 105 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 2: because now he wears a wig?

Like the month or two after 327 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,400 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl is just a sports Wasteland, So. 328 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:48,679 Speaker 1: I us you're a big NBA fan, I guess. 329 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 2: Anyway, So yesterday at the Supreme Court, they had oral 330 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:58,919 Speaker 2: arguments for a couple of transgender related cases, and without 331 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 2: getting into kind of the the real details of the 332 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 2: differences between the cases and the questions being asked, it 333 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 2: was a really good chance for the Supreme Court to 334 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 2: take a look at the idea that you have women's 335 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 2: private spaces, spaces including sports leagues, bathrooms, whatever, they're set 336 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 2: aside for women. The laws of the United States have 337 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 2: always recognized that there are men and there are women. 338 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,879 Speaker 2: And Title nine, which was really really important for sports 339 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 2: especially and just women's programs in general at universities and 340 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 2: in education, said there's men, there's women, And in recent 341 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:40,400 Speaker 2: years there's men who say, yeah, I feel like a woman, 342 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,360 Speaker 2: so I'm a woman and have demanded access to those spaces. 343 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 1: I think we've all followed that pretty well. 344 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 2: And so finally the Supreme Court has taken on a 345 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:51,719 Speaker 2: couple of cases that really kind of get to the 346 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:55,120 Speaker 2: heart of that. And the oral arguments were super interesting yesterday, 347 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 2: and it was just as a quick aside, there's a 348 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:02,159 Speaker 2: lot of stuff that's quite loyally in the oral arguments 349 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 2: because they're figuring out not should dudes be able to 350 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:07,240 Speaker 2: go to bathroom in women's bathrooms. 351 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: That's it's not like that. 352 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 2: It's all about strict scrutiny and inner meat scrutiny and. 353 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 1: Just stuff, and it gets complicated. 354 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 2: I think it is almost handy that I'm not actually 355 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:19,199 Speaker 2: an attorney, because I understand what a lot of that 356 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 2: stuff means. But my head gets bogged down and it 357 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,160 Speaker 2: just so I don't understand what it means. I don't 358 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:25,920 Speaker 2: know why you just can't yell at the Supreme Court 359 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:29,880 Speaker 2: there's a dude in the women's bathroom, and then they subtly, yeah, 360 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:34,479 Speaker 2: that's I'm actually in favor of that strict scrutiny. But anyway, 361 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 2: So I want to play a handful of clips from 362 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:42,199 Speaker 2: the oral arguments yesterday that really kind of caught people's attention, 363 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:46,200 Speaker 2: or certainly should have. The first one I want to 364 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,679 Speaker 2: play is fifty five Michael. Its got a lot of attention. 365 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:57,360 Speaker 2: It's KBJ who infamously, horrifyingly, puke worthily uses the term 366 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 2: cisgender girls in the court, as if we all agree 367 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 2: that that is even a thing. No, that's the radical 368 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 2: activists to introduce that whole term to us. I won't 369 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,080 Speaker 2: use it, and you shouldn't either. Anyway, here's Kabja in 370 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 2: one of the attorneys. 371 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 6: You have the overarching classification, you know, everybody has to 372 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 6: be to play on the team that is the same 373 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 6: as their sex at birth. But then you have a 374 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 6: gender identity definition that is operating within that meaning a distinction, 375 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 6: meaning that for CIS ginger girls they can play consistent 376 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 6: with their gender identity, for transgender girls they can't. 377 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:45,719 Speaker 1: So I think that okay. 378 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,439 Speaker 7: As to the part about your ability to pass over 379 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 7: from boy to girl, yes you can go from one way, 380 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 7: but not the other. I want to be clear that 381 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 7: BBJ is not challenging that specific classification. I think that's 382 00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 7: important to start with. But I think if anything, that's 383 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 7: you know, we can bail here. 384 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 2: Actually, just to shorten it a little bit. He I 385 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 2: could hear, I'm a bit of a mind reader. I 386 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 2: could hear in the guy's voice, it's not a friggin thing, 387 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 2: the idea that this gender girls get to play in 388 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:19,879 Speaker 2: their gender preference sports, but trans girls don't get toothed. 389 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 1: So that's discrimination. And the guy, you know, mentally rolled 390 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 1: his eyes and thought, hope, for God's sake, all right. 391 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:28,120 Speaker 2: So what I was thinking when I heard that was Okay, 392 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 2: your honor, there are other justice. Clearly we have to 393 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 2: nail down whether or not this is a thing or not, 394 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 2: because she just presented it as if it is. Yeah, right, exactly, yeah. 395 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 2: And and look, here's here's the thing to know about KBJ. 396 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:47,399 Speaker 2: She is of the belief and I'm I'm as certain 397 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 2: as I can be of this this. 398 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 1: You know statement. 399 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 2: She is of the belief that the laws of the 400 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:56,880 Speaker 2: United States of America and the Constitution are a manifestation 401 00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 2: of white supremacy and are stacked against the oppressed. Therefore, 402 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 2: her mission as a Supreme child Court justice is not 403 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 2: to interpret the law and interpret the Constitution and come 404 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 2: down to come to an impartial decision based on serious analysis. 405 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: Her job, as she seeses, is to get the right result. 406 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 2: And so you know, she's going to be on the 407 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:21,439 Speaker 2: short end of a hell of a lot of sticks 408 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 2: because the other justices, including at least one of the 409 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,159 Speaker 2: liberal types, are very serious about their jobs in a 410 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:32,359 Speaker 2: way that she isn't. Anyway, this got a lot of attention. 411 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:34,679 Speaker 2: We played you just a little bit of it fifty two. 412 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 2: This is justice, Alito, May God grant him long, long, long, 413 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 2: long life. 414 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 1: Talking to one of the other attorneys for the bad guys. 415 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 4: Well to pick up on the issue of discrimination on 416 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:52,359 Speaker 4: the basis of transgender status. Let me just go back 417 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,639 Speaker 4: to let me go to some basics. Do you agree 418 00:22:55,760 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 4: that a school may have separate teams for a category 419 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:06,160 Speaker 4: of students classified as boys in a category of students classified. 420 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 1: As girls, Yes, your honor. 421 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 4: If it does that, then is it not necessary for 422 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 4: there to be for equal protection purposes? If that is 423 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 4: challenged under the equal protection clause? An understanding of what 424 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 4: it means to be a boy or a girl, or 425 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 4: a man or a woman. Yes, you're and what is 426 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:27,880 Speaker 4: that definition for equal protection purposes? What does what does 427 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 4: it mean to be a boy or a girl, or 428 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:31,200 Speaker 4: a man or a woman? 429 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 5: Sorry, And to centers to your question, I think that 430 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 5: the underlying enactment, whatever it was, the policy, the law, 431 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,120 Speaker 5: the would have to we'd have to have an understanding 432 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 5: of how the state or the government was just understanding 433 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 5: that term to figure out whether or not someone was excluded. 434 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,359 Speaker 5: We do not have a definition for the court, and 435 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 5: we don't take issue with the we're not disputing the 436 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,199 Speaker 5: definition here. What we're saying is that the way it 437 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:55,120 Speaker 5: applies in practice is to exclude birth sex males categorically 438 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 5: from women's teams, and that there's a subset of those 439 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,199 Speaker 5: birth sex males where it doesn't make sense to do 440 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,719 Speaker 5: so according to the state's own interest. 441 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 4: Well, how can you how can a court determine whether 442 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 4: there's discrimination on the basis of sex without knowing what 443 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,639 Speaker 4: sex means for equal protection purposes? 444 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 5: I think here we just know that we basically know 445 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 5: that the that they've identified, pursuing to their own statute, 446 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,199 Speaker 5: Lindsay qualifies as a birth sex male, and she's being 447 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 5: excluded categorically from the women's teams as the statute. So 448 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,159 Speaker 5: we're taking the statute definitions as we find them, and we. 449 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:29,919 Speaker 1: Don't dispute them. 450 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 5: We're just trying to figure out do they create an 451 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 5: equal protection problem. 452 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 2: One of the smartest, most capable attorneys in America, indeed 453 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 2: in the world, posed with the well, how are we 454 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 2: supposed to judge this if we don't even define what 455 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 2: a man or woman is? 456 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:50,959 Speaker 1: Responds with, you know, that's a state that's known as 457 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:52,440 Speaker 1: the Hamina hemana doctrine. 458 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 2: Right, if you get asked a question and you have 459 00:24:54,520 --> 00:25:00,119 Speaker 2: to go hamanahmina, you should lose, right, Yeah, exactly, just 460 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,680 Speaker 2: because when you get it down to the very basics, 461 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:08,919 Speaker 2: the question is unanswerable. There's no adequate answer. It's silly, 462 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 2: which gets to one of my favorite tim of Sobol quotes, 463 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 2: one of many I admire, where he said there are 464 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:17,439 Speaker 2: some ideas so idiotic, so foolish, only an intellectual. 465 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 1: Could hold them. 466 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 2: And he also has some great quotes about how the 467 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,879 Speaker 2: truth is often very very simple. It's in dishonesty that 468 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 2: the complexity starts. And when you reduce the question to 469 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,879 Speaker 2: its essence, like Justice Ledo did to that very capable 470 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:35,920 Speaker 2: of very smart attorney, she couldn't answer it. You have 471 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 2: to dress it up in the double speak of radical 472 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 2: gender theory to offer any credible answer. And then one 473 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,400 Speaker 2: more clip. I really like this one, and I'm sorry 474 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,719 Speaker 2: I don't recall which attorney this was. It was for 475 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 2: one of the states. He was in a conversation with 476 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 2: Elena Kagan, who is, unlike KBJ, I think very serious 477 00:25:56,520 --> 00:26:00,200 Speaker 2: about our job, an extremely capable, although I just agree 478 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,399 Speaker 2: with her a lot, and she was they were jowing 479 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:06,320 Speaker 2: about you have a class of people. Can be black, 480 00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 2: people can be blind, people can be men or women. 481 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 1: How about disclimbers who are gay? I mean, no, which 482 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:17,360 Speaker 1: one is it? Anyway? 483 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:20,919 Speaker 2: So you have a class of people meaning a woman. 484 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:26,400 Speaker 2: And the other side is attempting to say, when you. 485 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: Apply the law and apply that. 486 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:35,880 Speaker 2: Class, there are some people like these transgender people. 487 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 1: Who are a dude. 488 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 2: Yes, but they they're weak and they're womanly, and so 489 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 2: the class. 490 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,920 Speaker 1: Shouldn't apply to them. 491 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 2: And this attorney is responding to that notion, to my mind, 492 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:53,199 Speaker 2: quite brilliantly because she asks them, if we allowed that, 493 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:54,919 Speaker 2: what would that look like? 494 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 8: In fifty Michael, I'm having trouble coming up with what 495 00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 8: it could look like, because it will always be possible 496 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 8: to carve the class down further, right, I mean, so 497 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,440 Speaker 8: if they say that their class, that they're their subclass 498 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 8: I guess subclass of males is males who identify as transgender, 499 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 8: then we would come back and say, well, only something 500 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 8: like ten percent of males who identify as transgender take 501 00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 8: the testosterone suppression. And then they might say, well, okay, no, 502 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,400 Speaker 8: the class is just the males who take the distosterrum suppression, 503 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 8: and then we might come back and say, well, according 504 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 8: to the record, according to their own expert, of males 505 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,360 Speaker 8: who take testosterone suppression, only one quarter of them are 506 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 8: able to achieve the appropriate you like to able achieve 507 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,239 Speaker 8: ordinary levels of testosterone for women, and the other three 508 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:38,119 Speaker 8: quarters would still have an advantage, and therefore we'd be justified. 509 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 8: Seventy five percent pretty good fit and an intermediate scrutiny, 510 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:42,359 Speaker 8: and we'd be justified with the law. 511 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 1: But then they can just change the class again. 512 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:48,120 Speaker 8: They can say, aha, no, our class is males who 513 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 8: identify as transgender, who suppressed their testosterone and who suppessed 514 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 8: their testosterone successfully and are able to get it down 515 00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 8: to where they don't have a competitive advantage. And at 516 00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 8: that point and say, if you can define the class 517 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 8: so precisely, you're going to force the state to define 518 00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,160 Speaker 8: the class that precisely. It's going to be enormously burdensome 519 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 8: for everyone. And the state can never win because whenever 520 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 8: the state points to the fit in the statute, do 521 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:12,199 Speaker 8: they just redefine their class as only the people who 522 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 8: are outside the fit. 523 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: Thank you, There you go, there you go. 524 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:20,680 Speaker 2: It never ends, all right, How about a transgender person 525 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:25,119 Speaker 2: who's successfully suppressed their hormones to the female level and 526 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:31,360 Speaker 2: is very weedy and effeminate, but has a skeleton of 527 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:35,399 Speaker 2: bone size and density that's much closer to the male 528 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 2: media than the female meeting. 529 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: All right, well, then. 530 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 2: Our new class is trans whose bones are but they 531 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 2: should be allowed to participate in girls' sports?

You know, I read an incredibly 662 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 2: persuasive piece by a very very serious commentator about the 663 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:18,359 Speaker 2: lack of professionalism, strategy, and tactics that ICE exhibited in Minnesota, 664 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:22,040 Speaker 2: which led to which certainly was a part of the violence. 665 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,239 Speaker 2: I saw a couple of clips on MSNBC. If they 666 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,920 Speaker 2: weren't taken out of context or misrepresented or something, they 667 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 2: were highly troubling. 668 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's truth on both sides. 669 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 2: We all need to ratchet everything down, calm the hell down, 670 00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:40,240 Speaker 2: and be smart.
