1
00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:16,760
Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunt. The French are here

2
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:21,680
Speaker 1: from pasad his first state visit with Emmanuel mccron. Plus,

3
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:27,520
Speaker 1: will the Iran nuclear deal survive? Will North Korea de nuclearize?

4
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:31,639
Speaker 1: And is Ronnie Jackson gonna stay in the running for

5
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,479
Speaker 1: v A Secretary? That and a whole lot more coming up.

6
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 1: This is the buck Sexton Show, where the mission or

7
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:42,839
Speaker 1: mission is to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence.

8
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 1: Make no mistake American great, You're a great American Again

9
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: the buck Sexton Show begins. No people know my views

10
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 1: on the Randy. It was a terrible deal. Should have

11
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 1: never ever been made. We could have made a good

12
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:05,959
Speaker 1: deal or a reasonable deal, and the Randall was a

13
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 1: terrible deal. We paid a hundred and fifty billion dollars.

14
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:13,759
Speaker 1: We gave one point eight billion in cash. That's actual cash,

15
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 1: barrels of cash. It's insane, it's ridiculous. It should have

16
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 1: never been made. But we will be talking about it.

17
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 1: Welcome to the buck sex and Show. Everyone, Thank you

18
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,759
Speaker 1: so much for being here. Honor, privilege and pleasure as always.

19
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,759
Speaker 1: Uh so you have the big visit today. A lot

20
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 1: of pomp and circumstance. I mean there was there was

21
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,399
Speaker 1: fife playing. I think there were fives. Perhaps they were piccolos.

22
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 1: They look like fifes to me though the guy who

23
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 1: knows his woodwinds uh and they or not as the

24
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 1: case maybe uh. You know. The French were here a

25
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 1: lot of people talking about the debt of on Earth

26
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 1: to a General Lafayette, which is a real thing, Marquis

27
00:01:55,840 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: de Lafayette. So the French are our buddies. Sometimes we

28
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 1: have a little disagreements with them, but for the most

29
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 1: part they were really our first major ally, so there's

30
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,959
Speaker 1: that gave us the Statue of Liberty, which was nice

31
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,640
Speaker 1: of them, and a whole bunch of other stuff. French

32
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 1: fries among my favorite things, among my favorite things on

33
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,359
Speaker 1: planet Earth. I never called them freedom fries, you know.

34
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 1: I didn't turn my back on France even during that period.

35
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 1: Like the French fries. Guys, we all need to get

36
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 1: a grip. So he had some important policy discussions going

37
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 1: on today with Trump and Macron or should we should

38
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: we do we americanize it? Do we go Macron? You

39
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 1: know what I mean? You know, because there's also different

40
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,520
Speaker 1: ways you can americanize it, right, you can do Southern

41
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 1: like you know, Macron or you could do more like

42
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:48,080
Speaker 1: Midwestern like mccron, you know, or New Yorker McCrone, Hey McCrone,

43
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 1: Hey McCrone, or that's New Yorker Philly A. Mccron. What

44
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 1: are you talking about? The the Iran nuke deal? Nuke

45
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 1: nuke for who? For what? Uh? So, there there's a

46
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 1: lot of stuff going on here. You got the Trump

47
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: administration going to de certify or not on the Iran

48
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 1: nuke deal. Let's start with Iran and then I'll get

49
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 1: to North Korea. Both of these today, a lot of headlines,

50
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: a lot of talk, and I sometimes feel like we

51
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 1: get drawn into these conversations about foreign policy, and I'm

52
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: I feel like anyone who refers themselves as a such

53
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: and such nerd is really engaged in a humble brag.

54
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 1: But so I won't say I'm a foreign policy nerd.

55
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,080
Speaker 1: I'll just say I like foreign policy, I worked in it,

56
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,359
Speaker 1: and I find it very interesting that all said, unless

57
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 1: we're talking about a war or a major trade issue,

58
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 1: most foreign policy is an intellectual exercise. And the people

59
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 1: you're listening to see, I'm just telling you the truth

60
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 1: here because I am bucket. I cannot I cannot tell

61
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 1: a lie. Most foreign policy analysis is interesting. Maybe you

62
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 1: learn some stuff, but does it end up being correct

63
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 1: or not? People don't really pay attention. A lot of

64
00:03:55,320 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: people go on TV that have been wrong on foreign policy, wrong, wrong,

65
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: all along, that's really their calling card. There are some

66
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: folks that even have had the ear of previous administrations

67
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 1: on foreign policy, and I I'm just like, you don't

68
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 1: want to listen to that guy or gal always wrong.

69
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: I think you can put John Kerry in that category.

70
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 1: But it's actually useful though, because once you established someone

71
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 1: so consistently wrong on foreign policy, you're like, well, I

72
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,599
Speaker 1: just know that whatever he's saying is what I don't

73
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:28,840
Speaker 1: want to do. And on your on Iran and North Korea,

74
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 1: we're gonna get into some of this. So it is interesting.

75
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 1: It does affect us if we had a take military action.

76
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: It's North Korea that's obviously very scary and could have

77
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 1: big ramifications beyond that could spook the markets a whole lot.

78
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 1: Who knows. I don't think we're heading in that direction

79
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: right now, that's possible. The Iran deal is well when

80
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 1: you look at it beyond just the nuclear issue with

81
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: Iran and see it as trying to constrain Iranian aggression.

82
00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: Now we're talking about an expansionism and really the revival

83
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 1: of a or you could say, the creation of a

84
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: Shia crescent of power. One of the things that's happening

85
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: right now in the Middle East is you have a

86
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 1: Sunni Shia civil war that's playing out in a whole

87
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 1: bunch of different countries, and it's not thought of in

88
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:22,839
Speaker 1: that way because usually it's within the context of a

89
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 1: national of a national struggle. Right, So in Syria we

90
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,159
Speaker 1: think of the Syrian Civil War. In Yemen we think

91
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,159
Speaker 1: of the you know, Yumani civil war or whatever we're

92
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 1: calling some of these struggles. Now, you know, in Iraq

93
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:39,239
Speaker 1: we've got the insurgency, and but when you really peel

94
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 1: back the layers and look at what's going on, guess

95
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 1: what one of the primary dividing lines is between Assad

96
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 1: and his side and the insurgents and jihadists and all

97
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:54,280
Speaker 1: the rest on the other side. Sad is Shia is

98
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 1: Shia alla white, but and the rest of the country

99
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 1: that is opposed to him are Sunni Muslims. When you

100
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:07,839
Speaker 1: look at what's going on in Iraq Sunni Shia civil wars,

101
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,280
Speaker 1: there's one of the very scary things that we're trying

102
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 1: to prevent from happening. But the Al qaeda Ji hottest

103
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 1: or the iss Gi hottests are are Sunnies, and the

104
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 1: militias that fight against them are Shia. So that's always

105
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 1: bubbling beneath the surface, same thing. And yeah, you're getting

106
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:27,840
Speaker 1: my point right, you're catching my drift. Plus there's a

107
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,839
Speaker 1: Sunni Shia problem in Saudi Arabia. And then on top

108
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 1: of all that you have the Major Saudi States which

109
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 1: is really South I'm sorry, Major Sunni States, which is

110
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:42,039
Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia, and it's UH and its Gulf allies against Iran.

111
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 1: That's now the great Mideast power struggle that's going on,

112
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 1: and we have interests in this primarily for security reasons.

113
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,119
Speaker 1: Twenty or thirty years ago, we would have been like, whoa,

114
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,039
Speaker 1: we we gotta worry about this because of the Straits

115
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 1: of Horror moves something like UH. I think even ten

116
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 1: years ago you might have had or thirty pc of

117
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,919
Speaker 1: the world's oil supply moving through the Straits of Horror moves.

118
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 1: One of the concerns was that the Iranians, with pretty

119
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:15,080
Speaker 1: straight with with easy UH missile capacity, they just start

120
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 1: shutting it down and blowing up oil tankers. These these

121
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: are the theories and the threats that people have had

122
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 1: for a long time. Well thanks to domestic American energy production,

123
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 1: the shale oil revolution, which has been probably the single

124
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 1: greatest foreign policy windfall that we've had in this country.

125
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 1: In the post nine eleven era, we're a whole lot

126
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 1: less on edge about what goes on in the Middle

127
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 1: East from an energy perspective, because we're like, you know what,

128
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: We're actually an energy superpower, so we're trending in the

129
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: right direction on that. One's price of gas is very low.

130
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: It also means those countries like Iran have a whole

131
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 1: lot less cash to throw around for fancy planes and

132
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 1: very big missiles that go boom. Uh. So these are

133
00:07:57,640 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: all the problems that we have to look at right

134
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 1: now in the Mid East. But it's the it's a

135
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 1: lens that is shifting over time. It's not quite what

136
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 1: it was in the early days, say of the first

137
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: Bush are the second president Bush, but its first administration.

138
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 1: Trump's looking at the Iran deal, and he's looking at

139
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 1: in that context. He sees this as a series of

140
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 1: interrelated problems going on in the Middle East. It just

141
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 1: seems that no matter where you go, especially in the

142
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 1: Middle East, Iran is behind it. The Iran Deal is

143
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,839
Speaker 1: a disaster. They're testing missiles and what is that all about?

144
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 1: You look at the ballistic missiles that they're going and testing.

145
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 1: What kind of a deal is it where you're allowed

146
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 1: to test missiles all over the place. What kind of

147
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: a deal is it when you don't talk about Yemen

148
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,079
Speaker 1: and you don't talk about all of the other problems

149
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:53,080
Speaker 1: that we have with respect to Irana, especially look at

150
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 1: what they're doing in Iraq. And I know John Kerry

151
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 1: made the statement that he didn't want to discuss other

152
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,559
Speaker 1: things while he was making the deal, to spite all

153
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 1: of the money that we gave them, he didn't want

154
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 1: to discuss it because it was too complicated. That's not

155
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,479
Speaker 1: the way to do it, because it was too complicated.

156
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 1: So we made this terrible deal, but we'll be discussing it.

157
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 1: Big problems that not just Trump but all those of

158
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,960
Speaker 1: us who have been, including myself, opposed to the Iran

159
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: deal are It doesn't touch conventional missiles, which are quite

160
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,960
Speaker 1: a big problem. If their missile program gets to a

161
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 1: very advanced level, it means that were they to get

162
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 1: breakout nuclear capability, they can marry those two programs together

163
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, now you got big issues.

164
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:40,959
Speaker 1: Plus the Iranians can export they're increasingly advanced conventional missile

165
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 1: technology to a whole bunch of bad actors, including it's

166
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 1: proxies that could come after us in Iraq, but also

167
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 1: it's proxies that have currently encircled the state of Israel.

168
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:56,240
Speaker 1: Right If you look at a map right now in

169
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 1: the Middle East, if you look at Israel, you have

170
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 1: Hezbollah in a Ani in proxy to the north of

171
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:06,560
Speaker 1: Israel and Lebanon with missiles pointed at Israel. Assad a

172
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 1: client regime of the Iranians with I don't know if

173
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 1: they're pointing their missiles at Israel right now, if they

174
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 1: know what's good for them, but you know they are

175
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 1: obviously a hostile towards the Israeli state. And then in

176
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 1: Gaza Hamas, which despite being a Sunni Muslim entity, is

177
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 1: also a client. Although there's been some bad blood. I mean,

178
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 1: you know they're fighting about the Shia Iranians and the

179
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 1: Sunni members of Hamas in Gaza. They've got some problems,

180
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 1: but the one thing that unites them, and I don't

181
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 1: say this in in a glib fashion, it's really true.

182
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 1: Is their hatred of Jews and Israel, right, That's what

183
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 1: keeps Hamas and Iran, the state of Iran, willing to

184
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: work together because they hate his Room more than anything else.

185
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,599
Speaker 1: So that's why we have to worry about their conventional

186
00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: nuclear I'm sorry, conventional missile technologies. There's also a lack

187
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 1: of inspection into some of their military facilities, which the

188
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: iranience have said that's a no go. But guess what

189
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 1: if they have military facilities that we can't see, well,

190
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 1: how do we know what they're doing? It's pretty straightforward.

191
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 1: And then finally the sun setting of this at the

192
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 1: end of the current deal framework, Iran can basically say, okay,

193
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 1: we're out. You know now we can do what we

194
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 1: want and they will be richer and better place and

195
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:28,560
Speaker 1: have an economy that is much more enmeshed with the

196
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: regional and global economy at that point, which means that

197
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 1: there are more ways they can hurt us, and also

198
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 1: hurting them will have greater ramifications if there was a need,

199
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,680
Speaker 1: let's say, to go in there and strike, which is

200
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:45,680
Speaker 1: still something that we could see happening at some point

201
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,559
Speaker 1: still something that could be going on. I'm I'm hoping

202
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 1: that it doesn't. I don't want there to be. I

203
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,079
Speaker 1: think it would be a mistake unless we were in

204
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 1: an absolutely last resort, extreme situation. I think a regime

205
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 1: change in Iran is a nightmare in the making if

206
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 1: that became US policy. But I can't say it's not possible.

207
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:10,959
Speaker 1: We know it is so. But those are the big

208
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: problems that they have with the deal. And Trump obviously

209
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:17,319
Speaker 1: also has a certain hostility to the Iranian regime, which

210
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 1: is is understandable. We've really had some substantive talks on Iran,

211
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 1: maybe more than anything else, and we're looking forward to

212
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 1: doing something. But it has to be done, and it

213
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:38,120
Speaker 1: has to be done strongly, and they've very much been

214
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 1: butchers and we can't allow that to happen. And I

215
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,679
Speaker 1: think our meeting are our one on one went very

216
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,959
Speaker 1: very well. I hope you feel the same way. He's

217
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,679
Speaker 1: speaking of m Krans there mentioned him the beginning. I

218
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 1: feel like we should give the the President of France

219
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 1: a little bit more attention here in this open a segment.

220
00:12:55,960 --> 00:13:00,080
Speaker 1: He is the reason for this fancy state visit, that

221
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 1: is going on with all the pomp and circumstance, and

222
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 1: he he had some interesting comments actually on the Middle East.

223
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 1: You know, he's it's interesting the way it's talked about

224
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 1: is is mccron is respected by Trump macrons. He's got

225
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 1: a business packer. I think he was an eye banker,

226
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 1: investment banker. Whereas Merkele is like, Donald, why don't you

227
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 1: return my phone calls? I thought we had something special.

228
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 1: I thought we'd be allies since he you know the

229
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: things that we're working on, and he's like Angela, sorry,

230
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 1: they haven't got no time for you. He's not a

231
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 1: fan of Merkel. We all know this, and she's supposed

232
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 1: to be the one really leading the EU block of nations.

233
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 1: Whereas mccron he speaks Trump's language a little bit more,

234
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 1: not French, but he speaks he speaks in a way

235
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 1: that Trump I think and can can get behind some

236
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 1: of it. And and here's what he said about the middies,

237
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 1: because I want to get his perspective on this too.

238
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 1: And Randall is an important Huma will discuss about that.

239
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: But we have to take it as a part of

240
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:06,199
Speaker 1: the broader picture, which is security in the over origin.

241
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 1: And we have a certain situation. We have upcoming lasition

242
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 1: in in Iraq. We have the stability to preserve for

243
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 1: our allies since the origin and what we want to

244
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 1: do is to contain the Iranian resident since the origin

245
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 1: and dac Pure is part of this broader picture, part

246
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 1: of a broader picture. They want to negotiate. If we

247
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 1: don't negotiate through this, if we don't get some kind

248
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 1: of an agreement with our allies, notably France and Germany,

249
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 1: on how to deal with the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.

250
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 1: That's what the j c p o A is, which

251
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,520
Speaker 1: is the fancy foreign policy speak for the Iran deal,

252
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 1: and it uh doesn't go forward. The Iranians are talking

253
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 1: a lot of trash and what they're gonna do if

254
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 1: we don't keep the deal as is in its totality, Well,

255
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 1: what does that mean? I got a hint from Trump

256
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 1: on that come back. And then also North Korea, Trump

257
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 1: said that Kim Jong had been honorable, and I know

258
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 1: the we're all they're all over that in the media,

259
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: but let's put that in context. Let's look at what

260
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 1: he actually said and what he meant him, what the

261
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 1: purpose of the statement was. We will do all that

262
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 1: and more coming right up start their nuclear program. We'll

263
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 1: find out. You'll find out about that. It won't be

264
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 1: so easy for them to restart. They're not gonna be

265
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:32,480
Speaker 1: restarting anything they restarted. They can have big problems, bigger

266
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 1: than they've ever had before. And you can mark it down.

267
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 1: They restart their nuclear program, they will have bigger problems

268
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 1: than they have ever had before, Thank you very much.

269
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 1: Trump not messing around there saying, look, if the Iranians

270
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,400
Speaker 1: decided to get cute and try to play games with

271
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 1: the nuclear program, there's gonna be uh, it's gonna be

272
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 1: hell to pay. It's gonna be a big, as you're saying,

273
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 1: a big problem. And he's trying to be as clear

274
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 1: as he can on that. Um. I I wonder here

275
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 1: how this is gonna go because I think that there's

276
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 1: enough of it. There's an understanding among those of us

277
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 1: who see what Trump's options are here that he's going

278
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 1: to get a ton of heat from the left if

279
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 1: he actually does anything to this deal. And it's not

280
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 1: it's not really about Iran. That's what's so frustrating about it.

281
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 1: Why you won't know the answer to this, Why will

282
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:35,400
Speaker 1: the left screen, bloody murder if Trump and the Democrats

283
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 1: and the media and all the rest of the Trump

284
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 1: does anything that throws the as they called the j

285
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 1: c p o A, the Iran Deal. Of course, oh,

286
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 1: I know, you know the answer, because it was Obama's

287
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 1: only foreign policy legacy item. Not only is it Obama's

288
00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 1: only legacy item, he mortgaged the best of our Mid

289
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,920
Speaker 1: East policy in order to get the deal. In fact,

290
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:09,040
Speaker 1: there's a lot of evidence and reason to suggest that

291
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: the Obama administration took a particularly delicate approach in Syria

292
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: because and this is crazy, but get ready for it,

293
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 1: they didn't want to upset our Iranian counterparts in the

294
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 1: nuclear deal negotiations. Think about that. I mean, this is

295
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,399
Speaker 1: the Iranian state that for many of you listening I

296
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,199
Speaker 1: know who served in Iraq, you know exactly where I'm

297
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 1: gonna go with This is the Iranian government that has

298
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,280
Speaker 1: the i r g C and the Coodes Force of

299
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:44,119
Speaker 1: the I r g C and Kasam Solomani running it

300
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:47,879
Speaker 1: and making sure that there are e f p s

301
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:51,679
Speaker 1: flown across Iran into Iraq to blow up our armored

302
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:55,119
Speaker 1: vehicles and kill our guys in Iraq as they're trying

303
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,760
Speaker 1: to stabilize that country. And this is an Iranian regime

304
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:03,359
Speaker 1: that has blood of American soldiers on its hands in

305
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 1: recent years, and Obama didn't want to upset them because

306
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 1: he wanted to get a nuclear deal. Didn't want to

307
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 1: upset them in Syria as Syrias has got five hundres

308
00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 1: thousand people that die and then over the course of

309
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 1: that conflict, most of them while Obama was president here

310
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:26,119
Speaker 1: and they just didn't want to touch it. So that's

311
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,360
Speaker 1: you have to remember that. A lot of the opposition, Sure,

312
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,960
Speaker 1: it's out of blind hatred of Trump. Right, anything Trump

313
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,920
Speaker 1: does is terrible. Right, Trump could find Trump could show

314
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:35,679
Speaker 1: up tomorrow will be like, hey, my secret program to

315
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 1: cure cancer is work. That's the ah, look at him,

316
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:42,359
Speaker 1: waste money. He's terrible. But on the Iran deal, they're

317
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 1: going to see this. The left, the Democrat media will

318
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 1: see this as erasing Obama's foreign policy legacy. He's holding

319
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:55,280
Speaker 1: the line for America, buck sex in his back. We're

320
00:18:55,280 --> 00:19:01,159
Speaker 1: having very good discussions con Gun on was He really

321
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 1: has been very open and I think very honorable. From

322
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 1: everything we're seeing now, a lot of promises have been

323
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 1: made by North Korea over the years, but they've never

324
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,880
Speaker 1: been in this position. We have been very very tough

325
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 1: for maximum pressure, which we have been very tough on

326
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 1: uh as you know, trade, We've been very very tough

327
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 1: at the border. Sanctions have been the toughest we've ever

328
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 1: imposed on any country. It's not going to be fair

329
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:35,119
Speaker 1: and reasonable and good. I will unlike past administrations, I

330
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 1: will leave the table. But I think we have a

331
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:41,679
Speaker 1: chance of doing something very special with respect to North Korea.

332
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,359
Speaker 1: You know what the media took from all that I

333
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 1: saw it today. There there was a lot of attention

334
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 1: to this. Trump says, Kim Jong un is honorable? How

335
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 1: could he how could he be so thoughtless, so cruel,

336
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,639
Speaker 1: so one feeling looked? No one things. I mean, I

337
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 1: mean literally, no one in this country thinks that Kim

338
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:06,639
Speaker 1: Jong un is an honorable guy in terms of the

339
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:10,360
Speaker 1: totality of what he's doing and done as the leader

340
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 1: of North Korea. Yeah, it's it's gonna be tough to

341
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 1: make the case someone's honorable when they have their half

342
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:20,920
Speaker 1: brother assassinated in an airport in Malaysia using v X. Yes,

343
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 1: that's gonna be a tough one, right, Or if you're

344
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 1: gonna have rivals at the upper reaches of the North

345
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 1: Korean military executed by tying them to anti aircraft guns.

346
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:36,200
Speaker 1: That that's also you know, people are aware of these things. Yes,

347
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 1: North Korea is a massive concentration camp where some are

348
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 1: treated slightly better than others, but everyone's everyone's in the

349
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,080
Speaker 1: camp in one way or another. Trump wasn't saying Kim

350
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:47,159
Speaker 1: jong n is a great guy. Okay, he's not pulling

351
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 1: a Dennis Rodman here. I remember when that happened. What

352
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:59,680
Speaker 1: he's saying is, so far Kim jong un has kept

353
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 1: to what he said he would do. The big news here,

354
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:07,960
Speaker 1: after all this was that the North Koreans have agreed

355
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:12,160
Speaker 1: in at least in theory to de nuclearization or Trump

356
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:18,440
Speaker 1: spoke about this on North Korea. You said you believe

357
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 1: in complete denuclearization. What does that mean exactly? It means

358
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,920
Speaker 1: they get rid of their nukes. Very simple. They get

359
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:26,880
Speaker 1: rid of their nukes, and nobody else would say it

360
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:28,879
Speaker 1: would be very easy for me to make a simple

361
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:30,640
Speaker 1: deal in claim victory. I don't want to do that.

362
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 1: I want them to get rid of their nukes pretty straightforward.

363
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:36,879
Speaker 1: They get rid of their nukes, right, That's that's what

364
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:41,160
Speaker 1: d nuclearized means they got to give up the program.

365
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,160
Speaker 1: I don't think North Korea is ever going to do that. Well,

366
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 1: we gotta try, because we have set up a to

367
00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:56,600
Speaker 1: track future for ourselves here, whereby you have either impending

368
00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 1: military action at some point the future from the U. S.

369
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,680
Speaker 1: Maybe some ally is against North Korea to destroy their program.

370
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:08,800
Speaker 1: Who knows where that's gonna go, or this an aggressive

371
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 1: diplomatic approach, which is what's going on here. On the

372
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 1: point about Trump saying he's been honorable, and I think

373
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 1: that it didn't last longer. They pushed this, Oh my gosh,

374
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,199
Speaker 1: Trump said he's honorable, so terrible. I saw it. It It

375
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:24,120
Speaker 1: was I was somewhere today. I'm like, I'll just come

376
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 1: I'll just come clean and tell you. I was getting

377
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 1: my hair cut and they had MSNBC on, so I

378
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 1: was seeing this. Oh my gosh, Trump said, the dictator

379
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 1: of North Korea's being honorable. Go to heavens. Yeah, he

380
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 1: didn't mean like he's a good guy. What he's saying

381
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 1: is so far he's keeping his word in this whole thing.

382
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 1: It reminds me also of how the media responds whatever

383
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:48,199
Speaker 1: Trump meets with Putin or there's anything relating to Russia.

384
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,160
Speaker 1: They're like, why didn't he tell Putin what an big,

385
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 1: ugly meme bully he is, because he's the head of

386
00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:59,439
Speaker 1: state with a lot of nuclear weapons and it's an

387
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 1: important country, and we don't get to just pretend like

388
00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:05,200
Speaker 1: Russia is not there and doesn't matter at all, and

389
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:10,199
Speaker 1: spitting in the face of a Russian premier is just

390
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 1: first of all, it's not what an American presidents to do.

391
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:16,400
Speaker 1: And also it's it's not helpful, and first and foremost,

392
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,959
Speaker 1: the president is trying to get good outcomes. See, that's

393
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 1: where there's a big disconnect with a lot of what

394
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 1: the media thinks about all this stuff. You and I

395
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:27,320
Speaker 1: sit here and we're like, look, what's Trump accomplishing? What's

396
00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:29,479
Speaker 1: he doing? Yeah, there's a part of this is narrative,

397
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,400
Speaker 1: the narrative fight, but also he accomplishes a lot there.

398
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 1: He accomplishes a lot within the the the narrative struggle

399
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 1: with the media. But I mean, on the policy side

400
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,160
Speaker 1: of things, what's he given us, what is he doing?

401
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 1: What's he what has he done for us lately? And

402
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 1: so I evaluate this, So his tone about Putin or

403
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 1: his words about Kim Jong un is way less important

404
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 1: to me than the outcome of these negotiations, which is

405
00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 1: what he's trying to do. This why it is his

406
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:00,720
Speaker 1: honorable Keep in mind, the same meat you folks today

407
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:02,639
Speaker 1: we were like, oh my gosh, you call them honorable?

408
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,440
Speaker 1: Were the ones who were saying nuclear war is gonna come?

409
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:10,920
Speaker 1: When Trump said this little rocket man, I love that man,

410
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:14,160
Speaker 1: Little rocket There we go, little rocket man. Remember that.

411
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,119
Speaker 1: You can go back and see it. That's why one

412
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 1: of the reasons I love Twitter is for journalists, it

413
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:20,800
Speaker 1: gets them on the record with there, Oh my gosh,

414
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:24,879
Speaker 1: I'm hysterical. I'm so freaked out, and then later on

415
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 1: when they switch sides, you're like, wait a second. So

416
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,160
Speaker 1: when Trump was saying mean things about Kim Jong Owen,

417
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,159
Speaker 1: which was just a few months ago, with with with

418
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 1: little rocket man and all the rest of it. And

419
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,160
Speaker 1: Trump is so good with the nicknames, by the way,

420
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 1: he really is. I think that I'm pretty good with nicknames,

421
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,119
Speaker 1: Like I've given a fair amount of my friends nicknames

422
00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:45,639
Speaker 1: that have stuck. I've even given a family member to

423
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 1: nicknames that have now just become the way that we

424
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:51,320
Speaker 1: were for Like, I'm pretty good with the nicknames. Uh,

425
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 1: But Trump is better. I'm like, you know, he he

426
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:58,879
Speaker 1: is straight up master of the Shallon Temple. And I'm like,

427
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 1: I'm like a mid level you know. I mean, I

428
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,919
Speaker 1: can do some cool stuff, but he can do like

429
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 1: the one inch punch in the death touch and all

430
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 1: that stuff. Yeah, exactly, thank you, John. I didn't plan that.

431
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,880
Speaker 1: That was perfect. That's right. Sweep the leg. Frum knows.

432
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:19,399
Speaker 1: He knows what's up. So uh where where was that

433
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 1: North Korea? Um? I think that he's doing. He's already

434
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:27,880
Speaker 1: gotten further with this. Just getting the North Korean leader

435
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,160
Speaker 1: to say that they'll didn't de nuclearize at this point

436
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 1: is further along. And I think a lot of Trump's

437
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:37,199
Speaker 1: attractors would have said he would get And there is

438
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:42,000
Speaker 1: a panic. It's a quiet panic right now among the

439
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 1: media elites, among the swampy types, the deep staters who

440
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:53,200
Speaker 1: still remain within the federal government, and certainly over it CNN,

441
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,840
Speaker 1: you know, over at seeing an MSNBC, at places they

442
00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,120
Speaker 1: don't talk about at cocktail parties. They're feeling a little,

443
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:04,959
Speaker 1: you know, a little uneasy because what happens, I mean,

444
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,840
Speaker 1: just as a as a little fun thought experiment, folks,

445
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 1: what happens if Trump succeeds and we get to the

446
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:17,719
Speaker 1: point where there are opening, verifiable steps to North Korea.

447
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:19,680
Speaker 1: You know what happens if if North Korea says, you

448
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:23,160
Speaker 1: know what, no more testing and we'll let you inspect

449
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,640
Speaker 1: our facilities and will continue. I mean, even just getting

450
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:29,879
Speaker 1: to that level. The media, they won't know what to

451
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:34,479
Speaker 1: do with themselves because we've been told all along, We

452
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:38,679
Speaker 1: have been told all along that Trump is on foreign

453
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,159
Speaker 1: policy more than any other issue out of his element.

454
00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,639
Speaker 1: Doesn't get it, doesn't understand he's not, even though it's

455
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 1: just funny, he's not some fancy type. The media always

456
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:50,120
Speaker 1: tells us he's not some you know, educated Harvard man.

457
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 1: Well he went to Wharton, which is actually arguably the

458
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,320
Speaker 1: best business school in the world, and he's a billionaire

459
00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:56,679
Speaker 1: and he's from New York City. But somehow, you know,

460
00:26:56,720 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 1: they just always it's like we it's like we took

461
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 1: someone who was a crossing guard before no offense to

462
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 1: crossing guards necessary, you gotta keep the kids safe. But

463
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 1: and elevated that person to being the president. They're like, oh,

464
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 1: no experience whatsoever, can do anything at all. Well, it

465
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,880
Speaker 1: seems to me like he's getting further along this process

466
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 1: than anybody would have thought at this point in time.

467
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 1: But look, he he understands that. So I just wanted

468
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 1: to put that out there for you. Just think about

469
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 1: their reaction. I mean, I promise you on the day

470
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 1: that if the day comes and I think it's a

471
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:33,080
Speaker 1: less than fifty fifty shot, I'm I'm not getting ahead

472
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 1: of myself here. Look, Trump says, we gotta keep maximum

473
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 1: pressure on. We're grateful for France's key partnership in our

474
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 1: campaign of maximum pressure on the North Korean regime. As

475
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 1: you know, I will soon be meeting with Kim Jong

476
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:56,359
Speaker 1: un as we seek a future of peace, harmony, and

477
00:27:56,480 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 1: security for the whole Korean peninsula and in fact for

478
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 1: the whole world. However, in pursuit of peace, we will

479
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:11,879
Speaker 1: not repeat the mistakes of past administrations. The campaign of

480
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 1: maximum pressure will continue. And I just want to very

481
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 1: clear here. He understands that this is still a long shot.

482
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 1: He understands that there's plenty of ways that Kim Jong

483
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:35,800
Speaker 1: un may cheat, may break his word, this whole thing

484
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 1: could fall by the wayside. That all said, I think

485
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:43,520
Speaker 1: there's also recognition that if he manages to do this,

486
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 1: the media will be beside themselves. They are. And there's

487
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 1: another way of saying, they're rooting against the end to

488
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 1: the greatest nuclear threat the world faces right now. Don't

489
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 1: forget that. A lot of these big name journalists, a

490
00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 1: lot of these TV platform, big j journalist guys are

491
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 1: out there or or the print ones, the Washington Post,

492
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 1: New York Times, and they're hoping that Trump fails in

493
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 1: d nuclear rising the single most ferocious totalitarianism on the planet,

494
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 1: that is the most aggressive military state in the world.

495
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 1: They're rooting against him. They won't say it, but I'm

496
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 1: telling you they are. And if the day comes when

497
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 1: Trump is successful and the first steps are taking in

498
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:29,560
Speaker 1: this in this program, and he gets further along than

499
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:34,160
Speaker 1: any previous administration has ever in the era of a

500
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:36,800
Speaker 1: nuclear North Korea, even if he gets there, you know

501
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 1: what they're gonna run on CNN all day, Stormy Daniels.

502
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 1: Doesn't matter if there's no new news, you'll see a

503
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,120
Speaker 1: lot of Stormy Daniels photos over there. That's they already

504
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:47,719
Speaker 1: have it. They could run it like it's b roll,

505
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,720
Speaker 1: like it's in the background. They're just gonna be Yeah. Trump,

506
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,480
Speaker 1: Trump signed that historic agreement to d nuclearized North Korea.

507
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 1: Let's put some stormy dannueals up there. They are utterly

508
00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:02,120
Speaker 1: and completely feckless, feckless. I just just want to get that

509
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:03,840
Speaker 1: on the record now so when it happens, we can

510
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:05,880
Speaker 1: go back and play with roll tape, Buck roll tape,

511
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 1: you know, we go back and play it. I see

512
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:09,280
Speaker 1: it coming, I know, I know how they operate on

513
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 1: the other side. Ronnie Jackson. I don't know much about

514
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 1: Ronnie Jackson, I'll be honest with you, but it looks

515
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,720
Speaker 1: like he's in some rough waters right now. I want

516
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:22,760
Speaker 1: to get into I want to get into this a

517
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 1: little bit coming up here, and then I have some

518
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 1: follow up for you on the Toronto attack yesterday. It

519
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 1: looks like it wasn't terrorism, which a lot of us

520
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 1: initially thought I thought it was. I thought it was

521
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:36,040
Speaker 1: likely terrorism. I said, likely the Islamic State. But remember

522
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 1: how I went into that whole discussion about the guy's

523
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 1: name and background, that there were some clues, there were

524
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 1: some hints. So I want to deconstruct our now, our

525
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 1: initial analysis and reactions here in the freedom hunt to

526
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:51,080
Speaker 1: the attack which killed ten people, the worst mass killing

527
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 1: of its kind in Canada in a long time. If

528
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 1: agein how many years. I'll break down some we'll do

529
00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 1: some analysis of that um in the next hour, and

530
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 1: then I've just got a lot more show than we're

531
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,360
Speaker 1: gonna fit in today. Oh and uh, something that I

532
00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:04,920
Speaker 1: know you're gonna want to hear two, but we'll probably

533
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 1: say this for the third hour. The case of Alfie Evans,

534
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 1: this three month old baby boy in the UK and

535
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:16,840
Speaker 1: the just atrocious actions of a hospital there and a

536
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 1: judge in the UK National Health Service bureaucracy. They're saying, sorry,

537
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 1: he's just the kids gotta the kid's gonna die when

538
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 1: not only will we not help him, no one else,

539
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 1: including the Pope, I kid you not the Pope himself

540
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,120
Speaker 1: not allowed to do anything to help this twenty three

541
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 1: month old boys happening right now in the UK. It

542
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 1: is a vision of what is coming to this country

543
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:40,880
Speaker 1: if the you know, if the Obama It's and the

544
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 1: and the Sandernista's get their way. So remember, we'll get

545
00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 1: to that in the third hour. You will definitely want

546
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:59,960
Speaker 1: to hear that. So stay with me. So are you saying,

547
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:02,240
Speaker 1: Mr President, that you will stand behind him? So I

548
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:04,760
Speaker 1: would definitely stand behind him. He's a fine man. I'll

549
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 1: always stand behind him. I'd let it be his choice.

550
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:12,320
Speaker 1: But he's a man who has just been an extraordinary

551
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:18,360
Speaker 1: person his family, extraordinary success, great doctor, great everything, and

552
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 1: he has to listen to the abuse that he has to.

553
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:24,480
Speaker 1: I wouldn't if I were him. Actually, in many ways,

554
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,120
Speaker 1: I'd love to be him, But the fact is I

555
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 1: wouldn't do it. I wouldn't do it. What does he

556
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,160
Speaker 1: need it for to be abused by a bunch of

557
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 1: politicians that aren't thinking nicely about our country. I really

558
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 1: don't think personally he should do it, but it's totally

559
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: his I would stand behind him, totally his decision. So

560
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 1: Ronnie Jackson's Trump's nominee for Veterans Secretary Veterans Affair Secretary

561
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 1: at the A. And there's been some reports out there

562
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:58,960
Speaker 1: that and I think at this point, right producer Mike unverified,

563
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 1: it's we don't know, right which allegations, Well, we don't,

564
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:04,480
Speaker 1: it's just out there. It's being reported by news sources

565
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:08,040
Speaker 1: that what is he's a rear? Is he rear admiral?

566
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:11,440
Speaker 1: I think is his ranking rear Admiral Jackson his Navy man,

567
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 1: also obviously an m D and has been a physician

568
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:19,080
Speaker 1: to numerous presidents and was very well respected in that role.

569
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 1: But now he's going to be associate with the Trump administrations.

570
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 1: So all of a sudden, now the long knives come out,

571
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,840
Speaker 1: so to speak. Right now they want to tear this

572
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 1: guy down. The press is going after him and they're

573
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:36,280
Speaker 1: saying that Ronnie Jackson is Ah, you know, he's given

574
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 1: a whole number of um, he's given a whole number

575
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 1: of elicit prescriptions out of something improper dispensing. I forget

576
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,280
Speaker 1: what the specific charges basically given our prescription drugs is

577
00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 1: not supposed to, which I mean, he's a doctor, so

578
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,760
Speaker 1: I'm assuming who knows what that even really? What they

579
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:58,080
Speaker 1: even mean by that drinking on the job, I mean

580
00:33:58,120 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 1: we all know what that means. I don't know if

581
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:00,960
Speaker 1: he did it or not, but that's what the l

582
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:05,840
Speaker 1: And then hostile work environment stuff, which whenever someone and

583
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:08,600
Speaker 1: that's that's flimsy. I can tell you this having bid

584
00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 1: through some of these discussions and actually been around some

585
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 1: internal investigations about hostile work stuff. Whatever, someone says that

586
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:19,360
Speaker 1: someone's created a hostile work environment. Uh, if if it's legit,

587
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:22,399
Speaker 1: there's usually a story attached to it, right, So there's

588
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 1: hostile work environment where you just you're, oh, this guy

589
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,600
Speaker 1: created a hostile work environment, and then it will come

590
00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:31,759
Speaker 1: out that you know, he makes like occasionally inappropriate knock

591
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 1: knock jokes or something, and you're like, oh, I don't

592
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:39,000
Speaker 1: think that that should derail this person's career if it's

593
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,879
Speaker 1: a real hostile work environment. Though you'll you'll hear it's

594
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:45,839
Speaker 1: a hostile work environment occasionally this person gets angry and

595
00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 1: like throws reasonably heavy objects at members of the staff,

596
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 1: and you're like, oh, hostile work environment, right, So usually

597
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:55,759
Speaker 1: the story is attached to it right away if it's bad.

598
00:34:55,840 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 1: I'm not saying always, I'm just saying that in my experience,

599
00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,799
Speaker 1: it's you don't have to guess whether or not it's

600
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:05,480
Speaker 1: it's hostile if it really is, because people know and

601
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 1: they want to They want it to be talked about,

602
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 1: and they wanted to be known. So we'll have to see.

603
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:13,719
Speaker 1: But you know, I I withhold judgment on this too,

604
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 1: because I agree with what Trump said. I would never people.

605
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 1: Sometimes some of you are way too kind. You you

606
00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:21,759
Speaker 1: will write me occasionally a few of you have a

607
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 1: lot of you are like buck, please, we know you're

608
00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:25,280
Speaker 1: not gonna do that would you ever run for office?

609
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:28,160
Speaker 1: And there's no no interest, never want to do it. Uh,

610
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:30,719
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter what position I were in it. I

611
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:32,200
Speaker 1: just don't want to do it. I have no interest

612
00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:34,840
Speaker 1: in ever doing it, won't do it. And and I

613
00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:37,280
Speaker 1: feel badly saying that though, because it's just in response

614
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:39,400
Speaker 1: to I don't want to ruin my life. I like

615
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:42,400
Speaker 1: my life and I don't need people trying to, including

616
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,319
Speaker 1: lying about me and everything else to try to tear

617
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:48,799
Speaker 1: me down. And it's tough to know what's just the

618
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,920
Speaker 1: media doing a hit job on somebody with whether it's

619
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:54,719
Speaker 1: Ronnie Jackson or Scott Pruett another person who is right

620
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:57,160
Speaker 1: in the sights of the media right now, and when

621
00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:59,880
Speaker 1: someone's actually you know, Harriet Myers in the making some

622
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:01,920
Speaker 1: but who's really not the right choice, not up to

623
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:04,239
Speaker 1: the task. I don't know. With Ronnie Jackson, I don't

624
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 1: know what they said about him is true, But I

625
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:08,520
Speaker 1: do know the media is a bunch of smear merchants

626
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:11,319
Speaker 1: and they destroy people. So I gotta keep that in mind.

627
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:14,120
Speaker 1: Or talking about the Toronto attacking, update to that coming

628
00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 1: up buck Sexton mission decoding the news and disseminating information

629
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:26,239
Speaker 1: with actionable intelligence. Make no mistakes, American, You're a great

630
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 1: American Again. This is the Bucks Sexton Show. Analysts. No,

631
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:39,840
Speaker 1: we have all watched in horror in the aftermath of

632
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 1: attacks on innocent cities in other cities around the world.

633
00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:47,640
Speaker 1: It is something for which our police and our city

634
00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:50,360
Speaker 1: staff and all the other first line responders here in

635
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:53,200
Speaker 1: Toronto have prepared. But it's not a moment that you

636
00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:55,960
Speaker 1: ever believe will happen in the city that we all

637
00:36:56,000 --> 00:37:00,640
Speaker 1: call home. Yesterday, as we now know, ten were killed

638
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:04,480
Speaker 1: and fifteen injured in a horrific and deliberate attack near

639
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:07,280
Speaker 1: Young and Finch in the north part of our city.

640
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:11,719
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Buck sex And Show. That was

641
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:23,439
Speaker 1: John Tory, the mayor of Toronto. Uh and um and

642
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:26,560
Speaker 1: uh we we know a little bit more about this

643
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:30,520
Speaker 1: attacker now. It was not It doesn't seem to be

644
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:32,799
Speaker 1: geohot is um because from what we know, the guy's

645
00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:36,359
Speaker 1: not even a Muslim, which one would have to be

646
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,759
Speaker 1: as a precondition for being a jee Hottest. As you know,

647
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 1: vast majority Muslims are je Hottest. But to be a

648
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:43,480
Speaker 1: geh Hottest, you have to be a Muslim. As I

649
00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:48,239
Speaker 1: mentioned yesterday, his name is Armenian, so and Armenia is

650
00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:53,880
Speaker 1: a ninety Christian country, so very you'd be very unusual

651
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:57,479
Speaker 1: if you have an Army Armenian name. I mean maybe

652
00:37:57,560 --> 00:37:58,880
Speaker 1: you know his mom could have been There's all these

653
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:01,360
Speaker 1: different ways you could look at it at Also, you

654
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:04,960
Speaker 1: could have had someone and this is important for future reference.

655
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,279
Speaker 1: Whenever you see one of these terrorist attacks, there's people

656
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,560
Speaker 1: do this whole thing. Oh are you assuming because somebody's

657
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:12,839
Speaker 1: um Muslim and they're involved in an act like this,

658
00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,040
Speaker 1: and this guy doesn't seem me Muslim, but you assume

659
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 1: that they're now it's Jihaddi is um. Well, actually, even

660
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,160
Speaker 1: if they're not from a are part of the world

661
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,320
Speaker 1: that you think of as Islamic, if they're not Middle Eastern,

662
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 1: there have been Hispanic gee Hottest, there are Caucasian gee hottest.

663
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 1: There there are people from all different arts that you

664
00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:32,560
Speaker 1: know there are, there are Thai gee Hottest, there are

665
00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:37,160
Speaker 1: Filipino gee hottest. So it's not an ethnicity based thing.

666
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:39,000
Speaker 1: So you always have to remember that. It's just a

667
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,080
Speaker 1: question of looking at the percentages in the early stages.

668
00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,759
Speaker 1: But so the guy's name is as they said, it's

669
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:47,640
Speaker 1: our Armenian and so doesn't it would be unlikely unless

670
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:52,359
Speaker 1: he had radicalized, unlikely that he was doing this on

671
00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:54,440
Speaker 1: behalf of the Islamic State or something like that. Turns

672
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:57,320
Speaker 1: out that inclination that I had seems to be correct.

673
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:01,120
Speaker 1: H He killed ten because one of those wounded UH

674
00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 1: died in the hospital, four injured, fourteen And from what

675
00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:10,799
Speaker 1: we understand of of him so far, based on the

676
00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:15,399
Speaker 1: initial run throughs of his social media profile and of

677
00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 1: his well, just what we know about this Alec Menascian,

678
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:27,560
Speaker 1: he was a psychopathic loser who was a psychopathic loser.

679
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:33,920
Speaker 1: UM had some affinity for that guy. I'm actually Elliott Roger,

680
00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 1: who was the Santa Barbara shooter. Who was this guy

681
00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:39,439
Speaker 1: who thought he was you remember this guy? He made

682
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:44,680
Speaker 1: these videos back in that's a few years ago. He

683
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 1: made these videos about how he, you know, he basically

684
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 1: couldn't get a girl and he was so awesome and

685
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:54,319
Speaker 1: all these Cretans would get all the beautiful girls that

686
00:39:54,360 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 1: were meant for him, and he had essentially become this deluded, uh,

687
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:07,799
Speaker 1: you know, sexually incompetent lunatic. And he went around on

688
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:12,799
Speaker 1: this murder spree, the shooting spree, and he tried he

689
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:15,320
Speaker 1: gunned down six people at the University of California Santa

690
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:17,759
Speaker 1: Barbara before he killed himself. I believe he was the one.

691
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:19,640
Speaker 1: Mike wasn't the one who tried to get into a

692
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:22,239
Speaker 1: sorority but like the door was locked or something. But

693
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:23,960
Speaker 1: he wanted to go in a killing spree in a

694
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:27,040
Speaker 1: sorority you see, Santa Barbara, because he was angry that

695
00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:33,320
Speaker 1: women don't like him. So this is another another type,

696
00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:37,600
Speaker 1: another archetype, if you will, of the psychopath here, of

697
00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:45,160
Speaker 1: the sexually frustrated, malignant, narcissist psychopath. Right, somebody who's just

698
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:49,359
Speaker 1: and it is deluded and feels like everything is so

699
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:53,320
Speaker 1: unfair and just becomes consumed with rage and and becomes

700
00:40:53,600 --> 00:41:00,560
Speaker 1: becomes evil. Seems. That's what um, that's what Manascian says.

701
00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:03,279
Speaker 1: He in one post on social media, according to Daily Mail,

702
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:08,279
Speaker 1: here he referred to the rebellion of in cells. Never

703
00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:10,799
Speaker 1: heard of this before, a term used to refer to

704
00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:14,439
Speaker 1: men who have been made involuntarily celibate because women will

705
00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:21,960
Speaker 1: not have sex with them. So this guy couldn't, you know,

706
00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:24,920
Speaker 1: couldn't get any women to sleep with him, and so

707
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,239
Speaker 1: he went out on this murder spreed. It seems that guy,

708
00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:30,399
Speaker 1: I know, it's it seems that's what we've got here.

709
00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:33,880
Speaker 1: I don't know what greater complexity we could add to it.

710
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:36,879
Speaker 1: I don't know what else there is to to say

711
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:41,640
Speaker 1: about it at this point other than how appalling and

712
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:43,799
Speaker 1: evil and disgusting can a human being? Can a human

713
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:51,000
Speaker 1: being be? Um? You know, he clearly has deep um

714
00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:56,760
Speaker 1: on deep psychological deficiencies. I mean, he's mentally obviously mentally

715
00:41:56,800 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 1: ill in a profound way. But this is something that

716
00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:02,719
Speaker 1: we've seen now a couple of at least a couple

717
00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:06,120
Speaker 1: of times. I also think that it manifests itself in

718
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:08,880
Speaker 1: societies is a little bit of a different discussion. But

719
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:15,759
Speaker 1: extreme violence, uh does become a a particular problem in

720
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:19,880
Speaker 1: society where there's a tremendous amount of sexual repression. Places

721
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,160
Speaker 1: where there is a lot of sexual repression are always

722
00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:26,759
Speaker 1: deeply unhappy, and and you tend to have extremes of

723
00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 1: extremes of violence. It's obviously true and parts of the

724
00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:33,400
Speaker 1: world ruled by his long fundamentalism, but not just there

725
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:36,799
Speaker 1: are other places too, So this is one of those

726
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:38,640
Speaker 1: cases where and by the way, it's important. This is

727
00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:40,759
Speaker 1: why we don't say, oh, it's clearly isis. This is

728
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:43,600
Speaker 1: why I said yesterday isis hasn't said it is. We

729
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:46,040
Speaker 1: we look at this as as a as a function

730
00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:48,560
Speaker 1: of percentages that is likely but can't confirm. But it

731
00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:50,719
Speaker 1: looks like And the reason we don't confirm the reason

732
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:52,760
Speaker 1: I tell you we gotta see, we gotta get more facts.

733
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:55,399
Speaker 1: And I was on Shannon Breamshell last night in Fox.

734
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:56,960
Speaker 1: I said, look, we just don't have the data right

735
00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:00,600
Speaker 1: now as a function of probabilities that looks like it's

736
00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:03,680
Speaker 1: isis inspired. But that's the difference in saying it is

737
00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:06,200
Speaker 1: and it looks like or it is and and this

738
00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:08,719
Speaker 1: is the early stage. And also note though you see

739
00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:10,160
Speaker 1: when you when you put it in those terms, and

740
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:12,440
Speaker 1: we because you always get in this political fight over all,

741
00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:14,799
Speaker 1: do we you know, are you jumping to conclusions about

742
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:17,200
Speaker 1: whether it's terrorism or jumping to conclusions about whether it's

743
00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:20,319
Speaker 1: Islamic terrorism. I think we work with what we know

744
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:22,200
Speaker 1: when we know it. I don't think we pretend to

745
00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:24,719
Speaker 1: know less than we do just because we don't want

746
00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:27,440
Speaker 1: feelings to be heard. And if we get if we

747
00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:30,240
Speaker 1: get ahead of where or if we get it wrong

748
00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:32,880
Speaker 1: on in an analytic sense, as long as we're basically

749
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:35,200
Speaker 1: on the fact. Well, then you adjust the analysis. It's

750
00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:38,440
Speaker 1: not that hard, right, it's not that crazy as to

751
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:40,200
Speaker 1: how we should cover these events, how we should think

752
00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:44,600
Speaker 1: about them. Um, and here we have this twenty five

753
00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:47,160
Speaker 1: year old guy who just saw it, clearly is aware

754
00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:50,839
Speaker 1: of how I has inspired attacks using vehicles have gone on,

755
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:53,759
Speaker 1: and this is a big threat. What what do you do?

756
00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:58,320
Speaker 1: A very frustrating question. Understandable question, but a frustrating question

757
00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:01,360
Speaker 1: that I get one who's worked in counter terrorism in

758
00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:05,359
Speaker 1: the past. People will say, well, you know, and I've

759
00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:08,120
Speaker 1: been in these discussions. I've sat there in conference rooms

760
00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:10,720
Speaker 1: in CTC of the c I of the counter Terrorism Center,

761
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:12,799
Speaker 1: and you know, how do we prevent this? How do

762
00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:14,759
Speaker 1: we stop that? How do we work against this? And

763
00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:19,360
Speaker 1: with vehicle attacks, you gotta you gotta stop that. You

764
00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:22,080
Speaker 1: gotta stop the attack before it's an attack. That's the

765
00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:28,640
Speaker 1: only way. That is the only method there is for

766
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:36,880
Speaker 1: finding out, finding out a an attacker, or stopping it

767
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:39,319
Speaker 1: before it actually happens. So I don't have much more

768
00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:41,120
Speaker 1: for you on the Toronto attack at this point other

769
00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:45,399
Speaker 1: than disguise. Seems like a psycho who couldn't get a girlfriend, right,

770
00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:49,759
Speaker 1: and just it just was full of hatred and and

771
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:54,440
Speaker 1: overcome with envy and rage. And you know, if you

772
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:56,239
Speaker 1: want to kill a bunch of people, a car is

773
00:44:57,080 --> 00:44:59,520
Speaker 1: every bit is effective as any firearm that you'll find,

774
00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:01,480
Speaker 1: if you know, if you're playing this out and you

775
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:06,400
Speaker 1: know the area. And yeah, so Terril Day for Canada,

776
00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:08,640
Speaker 1: feel badly for our Canadian brothers and sisters up north,

777
00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:12,040
Speaker 1: and uh thoughts and prayers. But I don't have any

778
00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 1: analysis for how we can stop it, because honestly, no

779
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,680
Speaker 1: one does. If you see people going on, oh, we

780
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:18,359
Speaker 1: know how to stop this, no they don't. Okay, there's

781
00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:20,520
Speaker 1: no way to stop this other than find the person

782
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:24,319
Speaker 1: as they're radicalizing and whatever their ideology is, and take

783
00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:27,319
Speaker 1: them off the street, prevent them from being able to

784
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:29,279
Speaker 1: get behind the wheel of a car before they try

785
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:32,759
Speaker 1: to do it. Once they're in that car, you're in

786
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:38,440
Speaker 1: casualty mitigation instead of casualty elimination. So that's what I

787
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:40,160
Speaker 1: have for you on the Toronto attack. If there's more,

788
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:44,760
Speaker 1: I'll certainly go to it. But guys an evil loser.

789
00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:49,239
Speaker 1: I think that's as close to the accurate description of

790
00:45:49,280 --> 00:46:05,640
Speaker 1: them as we can have. You know, here's a story

791
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:08,400
Speaker 1: courtesy of our friends over at the Daily Wire that

792
00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:12,080
Speaker 1: no surprise, mainstream media didn't didn't want to spend much

793
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:15,759
Speaker 1: time on um. But you know there's a Parkland survivor

794
00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:19,680
Speaker 1: that they also generally don't want to spend much time on. Uh,

795
00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:25,720
Speaker 1: Kyle Cashev, who is pro Second Amendment but also wants

796
00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:27,719
Speaker 1: to I believe he has an app He's come up

797
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:31,160
Speaker 1: with some very proactive steps to try and help stop

798
00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:35,279
Speaker 1: a school shooting. And Kyle's gotten some attention, but not

799
00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:39,839
Speaker 1: nearly the same degree of platform, on the same level

800
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:45,919
Speaker 1: of platform. That's a uh. Some of the David Hogg

801
00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:47,799
Speaker 1: and some of the others have been given by the media, why,

802
00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:51,839
Speaker 1: of course, because he's not saying what they want him

803
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:56,239
Speaker 1: to say. But this was this was just astonishing, It

804
00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:59,480
Speaker 1: really was. This just happened on Friday, so a few

805
00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:03,680
Speaker 1: days ago. Kyle, on his Twitter account wrote the following,

806
00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:05,840
Speaker 1: It was great learning about our inaliable right of a

807
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:10,960
Speaker 1: Second Amendment and how to properly use a gun. This

808
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:13,120
Speaker 1: was my first time ever touching a gun, and it

809
00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:16,759
Speaker 1: made me appreciate the Constitution even more. My instructor was

810
00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 1: very informative. I learned a lot the second Amendment is

811
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:22,960
Speaker 1: important and we need to preserve it. So he's at

812
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:29,000
Speaker 1: a shooting range, obviously everything is completely legal, getting instruction

813
00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:35,280
Speaker 1: from a from a trained personnel, and he's learning about firearms.

814
00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:37,239
Speaker 1: You know this guy, Kyle kash Of, this young man

815
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:40,280
Speaker 1: who was at the park at the Parkland, UH school

816
00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:43,239
Speaker 1: shooting and his dad's there with him, and a lot

817
00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:45,440
Speaker 1: of you were like, yeah, buck there with a family

818
00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:49,560
Speaker 1: member at a gun range. I call this Saturday. But

819
00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:53,600
Speaker 1: if you are Kyle cash Of, Uh, it's a problem.

820
00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:55,560
Speaker 1: All of a sudden, here's what the Daily Wire rights.

821
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:58,560
Speaker 1: Cash Of was quickly called out. We're visiting the gun

822
00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:00,920
Speaker 1: range and posting about it by bunch of students at

823
00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:04,160
Speaker 1: Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School. But that wasn't the end

824
00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:08,239
Speaker 1: of the story. When Kyle went to school on Monday,

825
00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:13,400
Speaker 1: his principle informed him that other students had been upset

826
00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:17,280
Speaker 1: by his posts, but that he hadn't done anything wrong.

827
00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:20,240
Speaker 1: According to Kyle, in the minting the middle of the morning,

828
00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:22,840
Speaker 1: events took a different turn. Quote near the end of

829
00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:24,920
Speaker 1: this is from Kyle Cashimo is what he wrote on

830
00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:27,680
Speaker 1: I guess on Facebook. Near the end of third period,

831
00:48:27,719 --> 00:48:30,400
Speaker 1: my teacher got a call from the office saying I

832
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:33,120
Speaker 1: need to go down and see Mr Greenleaf. I didn't

833
00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:35,879
Speaker 1: know Mr Greenleaf, but it turned out he was an

834
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:40,960
Speaker 1: armed school resource officer. I went down and found him.

835
00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:44,880
Speaker 1: He escorted me to his office. Then a second security

836
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:49,520
Speaker 1: officer walked in and sat behind me. Both began questioning

837
00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:54,439
Speaker 1: me intensely. First, they began berating my tweet, although neither

838
00:48:54,480 --> 00:48:57,840
Speaker 1: of them had read it. Then they began aggressively asking

839
00:48:57,960 --> 00:49:01,359
Speaker 1: questions about who I went to the range, whose gun

840
00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:05,680
Speaker 1: we use, and about my father. They were incredibly condescending

841
00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:10,120
Speaker 1: and rude. Then a third officer from the Broward County

842
00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:13,680
Speaker 1: Sheriff's office walked in and began asking me the same

843
00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:17,239
Speaker 1: questions again. At that point, I asked whether I could

844
00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:20,960
Speaker 1: record the interview. They said no. I asked if I

845
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:25,520
Speaker 1: had done anything wrong again they answered no. I asked

846
00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:28,440
Speaker 1: why I was there. One said, don't get snappy with me.

847
00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:31,359
Speaker 1: Do you not remember what happened a few months ago?

848
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:36,319
Speaker 1: They continued to question me aggressively, though they could cite

849
00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:39,680
Speaker 1: nothing I had done wrong, They kept calling me the

850
00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:44,040
Speaker 1: pro Second Amendment kid. I was shocked and honestly scared.

851
00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:46,520
Speaker 1: It definitely felt like they were trying to intimidate me.

852
00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:51,040
Speaker 1: I was treated like a criminal for no reason other

853
00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:54,480
Speaker 1: than having gone to the gun range and posted about

854
00:49:54,520 --> 00:50:01,919
Speaker 1: it on social media. So that's the way they want

855
00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:03,719
Speaker 1: the conversation to go. Now, that's the way they want

856
00:50:03,760 --> 00:50:08,080
Speaker 1: the narrative to be. You know, if they want to

857
00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:11,359
Speaker 1: ostracize gun owners, they want to treat people who are

858
00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:15,200
Speaker 1: law abiding, lawful gun owners who go to a duly

859
00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:20,080
Speaker 1: you know, uh, ensured and prepared range and you know,

860
00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:25,840
Speaker 1: are shooting there that is now suspect. Remember, there's always

861
00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:28,640
Speaker 1: different ways that they try to go about truncating your

862
00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:32,319
Speaker 1: Second Amendment rights. They can't get it through the legislature,

863
00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:35,840
Speaker 1: but they think they are winning the cultural fight against

864
00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:37,759
Speaker 1: the Second Amendment more now than they have in a

865
00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:41,000
Speaker 1: long time. They think that they can make guns not

866
00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:45,640
Speaker 1: just uncool, but they also can bring people who use

867
00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:50,399
Speaker 1: firearms under suspicion, make their lives more annoying, make their

868
00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:54,600
Speaker 1: lives more difficult, And that has its own implications for

869
00:50:54,760 --> 00:50:58,080
Speaker 1: what's possible via the legislature later on. You know, if

870
00:50:58,120 --> 00:51:01,560
Speaker 1: they can make it that, you should be concerned as

871
00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:04,160
Speaker 1: a parent taking your kid to the range, because your kid,

872
00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:07,759
Speaker 1: as Kyle Cash of was Mike get pulled the side

873
00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:08,960
Speaker 1: and said, what do you mean you're doing with the range?

874
00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:11,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I think about I should probably post it

875
00:51:11,239 --> 00:51:13,399
Speaker 1: on Facebook. I mean there are photos of me with

876
00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:16,839
Speaker 1: my brothers and my dad. I think I'm twelve years old,

877
00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:19,759
Speaker 1: maybe I'm ten, and you know we're out there, what

878
00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:23,440
Speaker 1: are we holding up targets from the range? I mean

879
00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:25,480
Speaker 1: I'm ten or eleven years old? You know. Yeah, my

880
00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:27,239
Speaker 1: dad helped me hold that, you know, helped me hold

881
00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:29,680
Speaker 1: the gun everything. It was like a bolt action twenty two.

882
00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:33,800
Speaker 1: But you know, started at a young age. You learned

883
00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:37,719
Speaker 1: firearms safety and nice uh you know, nice memories with

884
00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:41,879
Speaker 1: pops and my brothers. I can't imagine what I would

885
00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:45,759
Speaker 1: have thought if I as a young guy, especially well,

886
00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:47,960
Speaker 1: I mean Cash it was like seventeen, I think, so

887
00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:51,680
Speaker 1: he's a senior. But imagine if you were in uh

888
00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:54,360
Speaker 1: in grade school, and all of a sudden, because you

889
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:57,240
Speaker 1: went shooting with your dad over the weekend, which exactly

890
00:51:57,280 --> 00:51:59,040
Speaker 1: what Kyle Cash I did. You got brought in but

891
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:01,400
Speaker 1: to the principles office and there were dudes with guns

892
00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:03,560
Speaker 1: there who are asking you all kinds of questions and

893
00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:06,040
Speaker 1: so and from the police department. The sheriff's departments, and

894
00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:10,080
Speaker 1: they're asking you questions too, would you would you maybe now?

895
00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:11,520
Speaker 1: And a lot of your like, yeah, buck, bring it

896
00:52:11,560 --> 00:52:13,960
Speaker 1: the police. You know, I'll be at that PTA meeting

897
00:52:14,040 --> 00:52:16,360
Speaker 1: and you'll hear some stuff. I know. But I'm just saying,

898
00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:18,920
Speaker 1: this is what they want. They want you to have

899
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:21,879
Speaker 1: to think about it. They want you to feel weird

900
00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:25,919
Speaker 1: about it. And people who just don't want to deal

901
00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:28,320
Speaker 1: with the hassle will be like, oh, you know, maybe

902
00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:30,240
Speaker 1: you know, maybe I'll wait the kids a little older

903
00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:34,239
Speaker 1: before I take them the range, or maybe I won't. Yeah.

904
00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:38,160
Speaker 1: You see these stories about schools that discipline kids for

905
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:40,759
Speaker 1: using their fingers as a gun to go bang bang

906
00:52:40,840 --> 00:52:42,719
Speaker 1: for cowboys and Indians and stuff. I mean, this is

907
00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:46,120
Speaker 1: all It's all happening more and more, you know it.

908
00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:50,840
Speaker 1: It infects the culture. This an anti gun animus comes

909
00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:54,120
Speaker 1: at us from all these different ways. And and the

910
00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:55,920
Speaker 1: reason they're so obsessed with it's nothing to do with

911
00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:57,920
Speaker 1: gun violence, as I keep saying, And people get so

912
00:52:57,960 --> 00:52:59,400
Speaker 1: angry at me for this, and that's why I know

913
00:52:59,480 --> 00:53:03,120
Speaker 1: him right, it's not about gun violence. Because you can

914
00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:04,759
Speaker 1: look at all the different studies and we can get

915
00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:06,440
Speaker 1: our buddy John lott On, he can tell you the

916
00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:11,000
Speaker 1: different statistics. It's about guns as a cultural marker for

917
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:14,040
Speaker 1: everything else. Right, if you support the Second Amendment, there's

918
00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:17,880
Speaker 1: a very good chance it's you know, it's over seventy

919
00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:21,720
Speaker 1: five probably that you also are you know, pro family,

920
00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:24,080
Speaker 1: pro life, Christian. You know, you got on the whole

921
00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:27,480
Speaker 1: thing right, you go to church on Sunday. You know

922
00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:30,239
Speaker 1: you're not a vegan. You know there's a whole bunch

923
00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:33,960
Speaker 1: of things, good things. And if you are anti gunn

924
00:53:34,200 --> 00:53:35,799
Speaker 1: you know, then you look, there's a whole other bunch

925
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:37,480
Speaker 1: of things you can kind of assume from that. Right,

926
00:53:37,520 --> 00:53:40,879
Speaker 1: So it's become a central marker in the culture war,

927
00:53:41,520 --> 00:53:43,000
Speaker 1: and that's why they're trying to come in from only

928
00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:45,960
Speaker 1: different perspectives. But could you imagine if one of the

929
00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:50,240
Speaker 1: Parkland kids, some of them have been saying outrageous stuff

930
00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:52,359
Speaker 1: about how the n r A is. I don't even

931
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:55,120
Speaker 1: play it. There was a chance yesterday, producer, Mike, you

932
00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:56,840
Speaker 1: see this. They were chanting. I guess it's down in

933
00:53:56,840 --> 00:53:58,880
Speaker 1: San Francisco. You know, n r A, how many kids

934
00:53:58,880 --> 00:54:03,800
Speaker 1: have you killed today? The answer is zero? But I

935
00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:05,399
Speaker 1: don't know. Maybe they need to spend a little more

936
00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:08,319
Speaker 1: time in math class or something, because they seem to

937
00:54:08,440 --> 00:54:12,720
Speaker 1: keep repeating this chant at the behest of adults, and

938
00:54:13,719 --> 00:54:16,839
Speaker 1: it's just you know, there their their usefulness is kind

939
00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:21,080
Speaker 1: of passing as a as a political prop for the

940
00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:23,359
Speaker 1: anti gun effort. But they're still gonna kind of put

941
00:54:23,360 --> 00:54:26,960
Speaker 1: it out there. But Kyle Cashev doesn't get any invulnerability

942
00:54:27,040 --> 00:54:30,360
Speaker 1: in the in the press, and in his own school.

943
00:54:31,080 --> 00:54:33,760
Speaker 1: He can get harassed and brought in because he went

944
00:54:34,080 --> 00:54:37,520
Speaker 1: for the crime which it's not a crime, of going

945
00:54:37,560 --> 00:54:39,960
Speaker 1: to the range with his dad the fire and they

946
00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:42,719
Speaker 1: are and learn about the Second Amendment. Just remember that's

947
00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:47,160
Speaker 1: that's the way that the country is going in a

948
00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:49,160
Speaker 1: whole lot of places right now. So we've gotta be

949
00:54:49,239 --> 00:54:54,239
Speaker 1: vigilant about that. Um can they been Christian books in California?

950
00:54:55,400 --> 00:55:02,920
Speaker 1: Not an idle question. We'll tackle that coming up, all right,

951
00:55:02,960 --> 00:55:06,920
Speaker 1: welcome back. You may have seen this story about how

952
00:55:07,000 --> 00:55:11,359
Speaker 1: Google has banned ads from a Christian publishing house due

953
00:55:11,400 --> 00:55:13,799
Speaker 1: to its faith based content. Now we're trying to track

954
00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:15,080
Speaker 1: this down. I want to look into this a little

955
00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:18,120
Speaker 1: bit more, but it wouldn't surprise me that you have

956
00:55:18,239 --> 00:55:21,120
Speaker 1: this kind of censorship going on in the past, it's

957
00:55:21,120 --> 00:55:25,040
Speaker 1: been well what qualifies as hate speech. Now it's faith

958
00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:28,880
Speaker 1: based content under scrutiny from the massive social media platforms

959
00:55:28,920 --> 00:55:32,000
Speaker 1: and the titans of Silicon Valley. But it's not just

960
00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:35,840
Speaker 1: private enterprise that's engaged in this kind of censorship. There's

961
00:55:35,960 --> 00:55:40,359
Speaker 1: the very real threat of similar viewpoint discrimination from some

962
00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:44,320
Speaker 1: state governments, one in particular California. We've got David French

963
00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:47,520
Speaker 1: with us now. He is a senior writer a National Review.

964
00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:50,640
Speaker 1: He's also an attorney and a veteran of the war

965
00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:53,319
Speaker 1: in Iraq. David, great to have you. Thank you so

966
00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:56,480
Speaker 1: much for joining us. Tell me about this premise that

967
00:55:56,680 --> 00:55:58,719
Speaker 1: you've been out there trying to raise the alarm. I

968
00:55:58,719 --> 00:56:00,959
Speaker 1: know people have been pushing back. You push right back.

969
00:56:02,080 --> 00:56:09,000
Speaker 1: But what's going on with California possibly banning Christian books? Yeah?

970
00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:11,880
Speaker 1: It well, so it's really a crazy story. So what

971
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:15,839
Speaker 1: California has is a consumer fraud statute, like you know

972
00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:19,680
Speaker 1: virtually every other UH state and union does. And these

973
00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:23,560
Speaker 1: are not controversial because fraud isn't protected speech on the

974
00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:26,800
Speaker 1: First Amendment. Consumer fraud isn't protected speech under the First Amendment.

975
00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:30,160
Speaker 1: So consumer fraud statutes are all well good and normal,

976
00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:33,560
Speaker 1: and California is like most bands, the sale of goods

977
00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:39,040
Speaker 1: and services um through various fraudulent means, which again that's

978
00:56:39,080 --> 00:56:42,319
Speaker 1: all normal, but they've decided to try to amend the

979
00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:46,800
Speaker 1: statute to change to add a new category that bans

980
00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:49,360
Speaker 1: the sale of goods, which are good is anything that

981
00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:52,359
Speaker 1: you can basically carry. It's like everything from a hunk

982
00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:56,719
Speaker 1: of cheese to a book and services that are engaged

983
00:56:56,840 --> 00:57:01,520
Speaker 1: in what they call sexual orientation chain effort. So this

984
00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:06,719
Speaker 1: is very strange because it's a directly viewpoint related application

985
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:09,080
Speaker 1: of a consumer fraud statute. And then when you look

986
00:57:09,120 --> 00:57:14,360
Speaker 1: at the definition of sexual orientation change efforts, it includes

987
00:57:14,440 --> 00:57:20,640
Speaker 1: any effort to change behavior, sexual behavior, or gender identity.

988
00:57:20,720 --> 00:57:23,400
Speaker 1: And so, in other words, if you've got a book

989
00:57:23,600 --> 00:57:25,760
Speaker 1: and so or somebody is selling a book and its

990
00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:29,320
Speaker 1: specifically arguing, say, for example, that if you have a

991
00:57:29,400 --> 00:57:33,280
Speaker 1: nine year old is exhibiting signs of gender dysphoria, that

992
00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:37,040
Speaker 1: you should not call a her by he or change

993
00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:40,960
Speaker 1: her or his name or um have them, you know,

994
00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:44,320
Speaker 1: change their desire to dress and clothing of the opposite gender.

995
00:57:44,880 --> 00:57:49,120
Speaker 1: That that's consumer fraud, or that if you have somebody

996
00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:52,240
Speaker 1: who's trying to leave a you know, a maybe a

997
00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:56,919
Speaker 1: sexually active lifestyle and UM bringing their behavior in line

998
00:57:56,920 --> 00:58:00,440
Speaker 1: with Christian teaching. That trying to assist them in that

999
00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:06,040
Speaker 1: endeavor is consumer fraud. It's incredibly broad, and because it

1000
00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:10,480
Speaker 1: applies to goods, it would apply even to books that

1001
00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:13,480
Speaker 1: are used in that effort. And so it's it's one

1002
00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:17,439
Speaker 1: of the more alarming First Amendment UM threats I've seen

1003
00:58:17,440 --> 00:58:19,240
Speaker 1: in some time. We can can you explain to with

1004
00:58:19,360 --> 00:58:23,600
Speaker 1: David what does the California state legislature and so you're

1005
00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:25,840
Speaker 1: talking about what it could do? What do they intend

1006
00:58:25,920 --> 00:58:28,640
Speaker 1: to do with this? Are they trying to ban uh,

1007
00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:32,600
Speaker 1: like you know what programs that might be sold I

1008
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:35,400
Speaker 1: don't know, d DVD s or online programs or something

1009
00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:39,920
Speaker 1: that can convince people that transgenderism is not real or something.

1010
00:58:39,960 --> 00:58:43,479
Speaker 1: What are they what's the intent of this California law. Well,

1011
00:58:43,520 --> 00:58:46,680
Speaker 1: if you listen to the authors of it, and they've

1012
00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:51,120
Speaker 1: written a very broad and badly written bill, they say

1013
00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:55,560
Speaker 1: that what they intend to do is ban reparative therapy

1014
00:58:55,800 --> 00:58:59,560
Speaker 1: for money. In other words, that nobody can charge money

1015
00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:03,760
Speaker 1: for what they call reparative therapy. And traditionally, reparative therapy

1016
00:59:03,880 --> 00:59:07,360
Speaker 1: is an idea that you can change someone's sexual orientation

1017
00:59:07,440 --> 00:59:10,280
Speaker 1: in the word in other words, they're they're romantic or

1018
00:59:10,360 --> 00:59:13,360
Speaker 1: sexual desire for a person of the same sex has

1019
00:59:13,400 --> 00:59:17,000
Speaker 1: been the traditional definition of of reparative therapy. But they've

1020
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:21,400
Speaker 1: gone way beyond that traditional definition, even to arguments about

1021
00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:25,760
Speaker 1: behavior or to arguments about gender identity. And so what

1022
00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:28,200
Speaker 1: they did is they took this bill, which would be

1023
00:59:28,280 --> 00:59:34,080
Speaker 1: unconstitutional anyway, because you couldn't ban reparative therapy when you're

1024
00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:37,120
Speaker 1: dealing with, you know, adults who are who are seeking

1025
00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:40,920
Speaker 1: that kind of uh, that kind of counseling, um, knowing

1026
00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:42,840
Speaker 1: full well what it is and what you know and

1027
00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:46,160
Speaker 1: what the risks are, if any. And so they've taken

1028
00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:50,080
Speaker 1: something that they advertise as quite limited to this reparative

1029
00:59:50,120 --> 00:59:53,720
Speaker 1: therapy for profit or for money, and they've actually applied

1030
00:59:53,760 --> 00:59:58,120
Speaker 1: it to a sweeping category of speech that includes just

1031
00:59:58,320 --> 01:00:03,560
Speaker 1: standard argument it's about Christian sexual morality. Speaking of David Franch,

1032
01:00:03,600 --> 01:00:05,720
Speaker 1: she's a senior writer for National Review. Check out his

1033
01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:08,840
Speaker 1: latest on National review dot com. He's also a veteran,

1034
01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:14,560
Speaker 1: a veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Uh, David, have they

1035
01:00:14,720 --> 01:00:17,480
Speaker 1: left this lawso open ended in your estimation and you're

1036
01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:21,280
Speaker 1: also an attorney in California, with the idea that they

1037
01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:22,920
Speaker 1: will narrow it or do you think that they kind

1038
01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:25,200
Speaker 1: of like leaving it out there for interpretation and maybe

1039
01:00:25,200 --> 01:00:27,920
Speaker 1: they'll expand the scope of their authority a little bit. Well,

1040
01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:30,280
Speaker 1: I think they're leaving it out there intentionally because they

1041
01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:33,640
Speaker 1: have been warned about this amply in testimony in front

1042
01:00:33,640 --> 01:00:36,720
Speaker 1: of the California Assembly that people have been sounding the alarm,

1043
01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:39,360
Speaker 1: So they know the sweeping scope at this But what's

1044
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:43,040
Speaker 1: so alarming is they're deceiving the public when they try

1045
01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:45,760
Speaker 1: to explain it. But every now and then, some of

1046
01:00:45,760 --> 01:00:48,560
Speaker 1: these guys are actually saying what they mean. For example,

1047
01:00:48,560 --> 01:00:52,040
Speaker 1: there was in a California legislature on the Assembly floor

1048
01:00:52,560 --> 01:00:55,240
Speaker 1: in the debate over the bill who said that Christian

1049
01:00:55,320 --> 01:00:58,920
Speaker 1: beliefs need to evolve with the times. Well, he's certainly

1050
01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:01,320
Speaker 1: free as a citizen to argue that Christian beliefs should

1051
01:01:01,440 --> 01:01:04,960
Speaker 1: quote evolve with the times. But the state of California

1052
01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:08,320
Speaker 1: does not have the constitutional authority to force Christian beliefs

1053
01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:11,640
Speaker 1: to evolve with the times. But again, this is a state.

1054
01:01:11,800 --> 01:01:14,280
Speaker 1: Let's let's not forget that just was in the Supreme

1055
01:01:14,280 --> 01:01:18,440
Speaker 1: Court last month. With oral arguments over their previous effort

1056
01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:23,080
Speaker 1: to force crisis pregnancy centers pro life crisis pregnancy centers

1057
01:01:23,080 --> 01:01:26,840
Speaker 1: to advertise for free and low cost abortion. So this

1058
01:01:26,880 --> 01:01:29,840
Speaker 1: is not a state that necessarily respects First Amendment rights

1059
01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:32,240
Speaker 1: when it conflicts with the sexual revolution. I want to

1060
01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:34,760
Speaker 1: ask you also about this piece from earlier this morning

1061
01:01:34,760 --> 01:01:37,600
Speaker 1: I sought up on Fox is making the rounds about

1062
01:01:37,640 --> 01:01:41,720
Speaker 1: the possibility of some conservative justices getting put on the

1063
01:01:41,800 --> 01:01:44,680
Speaker 1: Ninth Circuit or some of your friends in mine on

1064
01:01:44,720 --> 01:01:47,280
Speaker 1: TV or fur to it the Ninth Circus. Uh, do

1065
01:01:47,680 --> 01:01:49,479
Speaker 1: do you think that's you think that's gonna it's gonna

1066
01:01:49,480 --> 01:01:52,280
Speaker 1: happen and will not have a major impact. Well, it's

1067
01:01:52,280 --> 01:01:55,880
Speaker 1: gonna happen if if the president appoints in the Senate

1068
01:01:56,520 --> 01:01:59,640
Speaker 1: Um continues its prior practice of confirming all of his

1069
01:02:00,040 --> 01:02:02,720
Speaker 1: all of his qualified appointees. I mean, you know, one

1070
01:02:02,760 --> 01:02:04,320
Speaker 1: of the problems you have in the Ninth Circuit is

1071
01:02:04,360 --> 01:02:06,960
Speaker 1: you have some of these states with democratic senators, and

1072
01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:11,040
Speaker 1: there's been traditionally a deference to the senators in these states.

1073
01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:15,080
Speaker 1: But that traditional deference to senators has been predicated on

1074
01:02:15,160 --> 01:02:18,240
Speaker 1: good faith and a lot of the decisions to withhold

1075
01:02:18,240 --> 01:02:22,520
Speaker 1: senatorial approval of Republican nominees of late have not necessarily

1076
01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:25,200
Speaker 1: been in good faith, and so I think it's important

1077
01:02:25,200 --> 01:02:28,960
Speaker 1: for the Trump administration um to push through as many

1078
01:02:29,600 --> 01:02:34,439
Speaker 1: highly qualified judicial appointees as possible and as possible pick

1079
01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:36,280
Speaker 1: up the pace on it because we don't know what's

1080
01:02:36,280 --> 01:02:38,480
Speaker 1: going to happen in the mid term election. David coming

1081
01:02:38,520 --> 01:02:40,160
Speaker 1: up in just a few minutes, I'm gonna be addressing

1082
01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:43,760
Speaker 1: the Alphie Evans case. We've only got about a minute here,

1083
01:02:43,760 --> 01:02:45,800
Speaker 1: but I want to just get your take on on

1084
01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:48,120
Speaker 1: what you think about this case in the UK where

1085
01:02:48,800 --> 01:02:52,640
Speaker 1: twenty three month old boys being denied care and told

1086
01:02:52,960 --> 01:02:55,120
Speaker 1: his parents are being told no one's allowed to give

1087
01:02:55,160 --> 01:03:00,440
Speaker 1: him care. You know, it's it's vile. I mean, I've

1088
01:03:00,480 --> 01:03:04,720
Speaker 1: been having trouble following the story, not not because of inattention,

1089
01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:09,520
Speaker 1: but because it's so it's so dreadful, it's so heartbreaking.

1090
01:03:09,920 --> 01:03:11,760
Speaker 1: You just don't even want to read about it. It's

1091
01:03:11,800 --> 01:03:15,600
Speaker 1: so heartbreaking, and it just strikes you as malicious. It's

1092
01:03:15,680 --> 01:03:19,040
Speaker 1: just a raw exercise of state authority over a family.

1093
01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:21,960
Speaker 1: When here you have the Nation of Italy willing to

1094
01:03:22,040 --> 01:03:26,080
Speaker 1: provide care and so far the nation of Great Britain

1095
01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:30,040
Speaker 1: denying that opportunity. Why why it's not a loss of

1096
01:03:30,080 --> 01:03:32,680
Speaker 1: resources to Great Britain to allow Italy to care for

1097
01:03:32,720 --> 01:03:36,560
Speaker 1: this kid. It just seems like the raw exercise of power.

1098
01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:40,520
Speaker 1: And I promise you if if this country starts to

1099
01:03:40,560 --> 01:03:44,360
Speaker 1: go down the route of government controlled health care, um,

1100
01:03:44,400 --> 01:03:46,080
Speaker 1: we're not far behind. If that's what I want to

1101
01:03:46,160 --> 01:03:48,680
Speaker 1: her to know, We're not far behind this uh And

1102
01:03:48,680 --> 01:03:50,520
Speaker 1: and I agree with you, David. It's spiteful and I'm

1103
01:03:50,520 --> 01:03:53,040
Speaker 1: gonna get into the details. It's spiteful by the UK government.

1104
01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:57,200
Speaker 1: But everyone should read David's peace and this California bill

1105
01:03:57,280 --> 01:03:59,400
Speaker 1: take a look at it. They will ban Christian books

1106
01:03:59,400 --> 01:04:02,320
Speaker 1: that they can. David French, everybody Nashal reviewed. David, thank

1107
01:04:02,360 --> 01:04:04,600
Speaker 1: you so much for joining us. Thanks for having me.

1108
01:04:04,600 --> 01:04:07,120
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Dam we're gonna talk about this Alfie

1109
01:04:07,400 --> 01:04:13,400
Speaker 1: Evans case in just a few minutes, So stay right there,

1110
01:04:13,160 --> 01:04:21,240
Speaker 1: are you? Thank you very much. Stupid question, so anybody else,

1111
01:04:23,200 --> 01:04:26,520
Speaker 1: stupid question. We should have that as a drop by

1112
01:04:26,560 --> 01:04:29,560
Speaker 1: the way, stupid question. We should have it ready just

1113
01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:32,160
Speaker 1: in case, you know, someone calls in there getting a

1114
01:04:32,160 --> 01:04:35,520
Speaker 1: little sassy's dropped the keep John can we cut the

1115
01:04:35,640 --> 01:04:37,640
Speaker 1: just that part out for stupid question. I like that.

1116
01:04:37,920 --> 01:04:42,800
Speaker 1: So that was that was Trump today in response to, uh,

1117
01:04:42,840 --> 01:04:45,560
Speaker 1: what was that Jonathan carl of A. Usually, I see,

1118
01:04:45,600 --> 01:04:47,919
Speaker 1: I would have thought it was a Costa. I feel

1119
01:04:47,960 --> 01:04:50,120
Speaker 1: like a Costa is really carved out a good brand

1120
01:04:50,560 --> 01:04:54,880
Speaker 1: for being the most egregious and annoying anti Trump grand

1121
01:04:54,920 --> 01:04:57,920
Speaker 1: standard of the White House Press corps. So now you know,

1122
01:04:58,040 --> 01:05:00,960
Speaker 1: he's kind of the he's kind the first in class

1123
01:05:00,960 --> 01:05:02,680
Speaker 1: when it comes to being the most annoying guy in

1124
01:05:02,720 --> 01:05:04,280
Speaker 1: the West wing. You know, so I get a little

1125
01:05:04,280 --> 01:05:08,320
Speaker 1: surprised about somebody else. But before I get into the

1126
01:05:08,320 --> 01:05:10,640
Speaker 1: broader discussion, here about how much oh wait, that was

1127
01:05:10,680 --> 01:05:12,680
Speaker 1: a wait, that was a Trump slap. We should come

1128
01:05:12,720 --> 01:05:14,320
Speaker 1: up with a special noise for it. But let's use

1129
01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:18,000
Speaker 1: the buckslab for now, because it absolutely there you go,

1130
01:05:18,240 --> 01:05:23,200
Speaker 1: Trump slap. But think about how stupid that question is

1131
01:05:23,240 --> 01:05:27,720
Speaker 1: for a moment. This is a White House Press conference, okay,

1132
01:05:27,880 --> 01:05:30,440
Speaker 1: and you're there, You're getting paid real money. You're supposed

1133
01:05:30,440 --> 01:05:31,800
Speaker 1: to be a professionally supposed to know what the heck

1134
01:05:31,800 --> 01:05:38,640
Speaker 1: you're talking about, and yet here we are with a

1135
01:05:39,040 --> 01:05:41,120
Speaker 1: very uh he used to be didn't he used to

1136
01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:43,400
Speaker 1: be with Fox, Jonathan Carl Am I crazy? He's the

1137
01:05:43,440 --> 01:05:46,960
Speaker 1: ABC right now? Was he ever with Fox? I might?

1138
01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:50,240
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm confused now that's Carl Cameron. That's Carl Cameron

1139
01:05:50,280 --> 01:05:52,160
Speaker 1: is who that is? I'm getting him confused. Pardon me

1140
01:05:52,240 --> 01:05:55,880
Speaker 1: with that anyway. This guy is a you know, he's

1141
01:05:55,880 --> 01:06:00,880
Speaker 1: a he's a big j journalist. He's asking about consideration

1142
01:06:01,080 --> 01:06:04,680
Speaker 1: of a pardon for someone who has not even been

1143
01:06:04,760 --> 01:06:09,880
Speaker 1: charged with a crime. Now, now that's about as dumb

1144
01:06:09,880 --> 01:06:11,840
Speaker 1: a question as I think. I mean, Trump is right,

1145
01:06:11,920 --> 01:06:16,560
Speaker 1: it was a very, very dumb question. It's about as

1146
01:06:16,600 --> 01:06:19,600
Speaker 1: bad as it's gonna get. But just look at it

1147
01:06:19,640 --> 01:06:22,880
Speaker 1: as a perfect way to understand how they play the game.

1148
01:06:23,800 --> 01:06:28,320
Speaker 1: No reasonable person would ever come to the conclusion that

1149
01:06:28,400 --> 01:06:30,640
Speaker 1: you should ask the President United States if he's going

1150
01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:34,200
Speaker 1: to pardon someone use the presidential power of the pardon

1151
01:06:35,040 --> 01:06:38,000
Speaker 1: who has not even been charged with a crime. You know,

1152
01:06:38,440 --> 01:06:42,520
Speaker 1: this is even going beyond you know, it's it's instead

1153
01:06:42,520 --> 01:06:45,920
Speaker 1: of saying to somebody, when did you stop beating your wife,

1154
01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:48,200
Speaker 1: it's like, what did you do now that you have

1155
01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:51,720
Speaker 1: stopped beating your wife? Going forward? Right, It's just it

1156
01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:57,120
Speaker 1: takes it even deeper down the rabbit hole of of stupidity.

1157
01:06:57,800 --> 01:06:59,680
Speaker 1: So I'm glad that Trump gave him a slapdown. But

1158
01:06:59,720 --> 01:07:02,720
Speaker 1: it all goes in with this whole storyline that Variety,

1159
01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:06,680
Speaker 1: which is a magazine that I thought covered Hollywood right, doesn't.

1160
01:07:06,720 --> 01:07:11,680
Speaker 1: Isn't it mostly about Hollywood stuff movies? But Variety put

1161
01:07:11,720 --> 01:07:14,360
Speaker 1: out a piece inside the intense. I guess it's like

1162
01:07:14,400 --> 01:07:17,440
Speaker 1: Playboy there. You know, you come, you come for the

1163
01:07:17,440 --> 01:07:20,400
Speaker 1: the actors, and and you know you you you stay

1164
01:07:20,480 --> 01:07:24,480
Speaker 1: for the political analysis. You know, Playboy you they're they're

1165
01:07:24,480 --> 01:07:27,200
Speaker 1: actually some pretty good essayists that have been published in Playboy.

1166
01:07:27,320 --> 01:07:31,160
Speaker 1: So I am told, okay, not place. Come on. I

1167
01:07:31,160 --> 01:07:33,960
Speaker 1: grew up in the nineties, nobody was Playboy was like

1168
01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:36,680
Speaker 1: an artifact that people would we we'd hear stories about

1169
01:07:36,680 --> 01:07:38,960
Speaker 1: how like our dad's had this magazine and you know,

1170
01:07:39,520 --> 01:07:42,240
Speaker 1: didn't really exist, Um, although it did, you stay, they

1171
01:07:42,320 --> 01:07:44,360
Speaker 1: used to sell it. Look at how much America has changed.

1172
01:07:44,400 --> 01:07:47,040
Speaker 1: They used to sell Playboy magazine and Penthouse in the

1173
01:07:47,160 --> 01:07:51,280
Speaker 1: subway news stands. So there I'd be a little young buck,

1174
01:07:51,320 --> 01:07:54,640
Speaker 1: you know, twelve years old, and there's naked Booby staring

1175
01:07:54,680 --> 01:07:57,280
Speaker 1: at me. You know what I mean? What kind of

1176
01:07:57,320 --> 01:08:00,040
Speaker 1: world were we living in John and Mike you it

1177
01:08:00,280 --> 01:08:02,080
Speaker 1: was crazy, you know. I'm just trying to go to

1178
01:08:02,120 --> 01:08:06,280
Speaker 1: my little Catholic school and there's you know, Jenny McCarthy

1179
01:08:06,360 --> 01:08:08,480
Speaker 1: up there. Yeah, I remember that Jenny McCarthy up there

1180
01:08:08,480 --> 01:08:10,240
Speaker 1: on the news stand. I'm trying to find the Wall

1181
01:08:10,240 --> 01:08:14,560
Speaker 1: Street Journal, obviously, and my eyes are being misled to

1182
01:08:14,640 --> 01:08:19,759
Speaker 1: the cover of some magazine of of ill repute. Anyway,

1183
01:08:19,800 --> 01:08:23,800
Speaker 1: So the Variety has this piece inside the intense, combative

1184
01:08:23,840 --> 01:08:26,760
Speaker 1: world of covering the Trump White House, and I just

1185
01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:28,840
Speaker 1: have to laugh. I mean, there's all this stuff about

1186
01:08:28,840 --> 01:08:34,320
Speaker 1: how how hard it is for these correspondents in the

1187
01:08:34,320 --> 01:08:41,680
Speaker 1: White House, and how uh how how there's the it's

1188
01:08:41,680 --> 01:08:44,479
Speaker 1: basically a big pity party in this article. You've got

1189
01:08:44,520 --> 01:08:49,759
Speaker 1: a costa in the article, obviously, April Ryan Um, who's saying, quote,

1190
01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:52,160
Speaker 1: I actively get death threats just for asking a question.

1191
01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:56,519
Speaker 1: I have law enforcement on speed dial. Uh. You know,

1192
01:08:57,240 --> 01:09:00,160
Speaker 1: death threats are terrible and they're illegal. I can't think

1193
01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:02,400
Speaker 1: of a prominent conservative journalists I know who hasn't gotten

1194
01:09:02,400 --> 01:09:04,840
Speaker 1: death threats, and I know conservatives who have gotten attacked

1195
01:09:05,479 --> 01:09:08,000
Speaker 1: just for like actually physically attacked just for being conservative.

1196
01:09:08,479 --> 01:09:10,479
Speaker 1: But you see this highlighted on the left, not on

1197
01:09:10,520 --> 01:09:13,240
Speaker 1: the right. The whole notion though, that the White House

1198
01:09:13,240 --> 01:09:17,880
Speaker 1: Press Corps is in this state of siege, it's just

1199
01:09:17,960 --> 01:09:21,880
Speaker 1: complete nonsense. They are leveraging this for their brands. They

1200
01:09:21,880 --> 01:09:26,440
Speaker 1: are literally making money off of this. Uh. They're increasingly

1201
01:09:26,439 --> 01:09:29,719
Speaker 1: in a position where their social media accounts are getting

1202
01:09:29,760 --> 01:09:34,400
Speaker 1: more and more attention and they have greater leverage visa

1203
01:09:34,479 --> 01:09:38,000
Speaker 1: the other employers and more offers. And this is branded hansing.

1204
01:09:38,439 --> 01:09:41,760
Speaker 1: They want to be at the pinnacle of the hashtag

1205
01:09:41,840 --> 01:09:44,400
Speaker 1: resistance as journalists, but they also want to be victims

1206
01:09:44,439 --> 01:09:47,160
Speaker 1: at the same time. They wanted They wanted both ways.

1207
01:09:47,200 --> 01:09:50,240
Speaker 1: They want the public go, oh, it's so hard from

1208
01:09:50,320 --> 01:09:53,639
Speaker 1: Jim Acosta or to be up there asking tequurtion projative,

1209
01:09:54,040 --> 01:09:58,479
Speaker 1: but they also uh want yeah, that's right, Acosta, get

1210
01:09:58,560 --> 01:10:00,800
Speaker 1: in there, take it to him, show him who's boss

1211
01:10:01,360 --> 01:10:05,559
Speaker 1: against the President United States. Uh. There is nothing about

1212
01:10:05,640 --> 01:10:09,760
Speaker 1: Trump's media fights that at this point I'm I'm not

1213
01:10:09,840 --> 01:10:11,519
Speaker 1: kind of in favor. I think he's fighting with the

1214
01:10:11,600 --> 01:10:13,080
Speaker 1: media is one of the best things that he does.

1215
01:10:13,200 --> 01:10:16,120
Speaker 1: It is not just highly entertaining, and it absolutely is.

1216
01:10:16,160 --> 01:10:18,920
Speaker 1: I don't pretend that it's not it's incredibly entertaining. But

1217
01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:23,479
Speaker 1: on top of that, it for many of us who

1218
01:10:23,600 --> 01:10:27,880
Speaker 1: for eight years had to sit there mouth's wide open,

1219
01:10:28,320 --> 01:10:33,200
Speaker 1: eyes bleary with this belief as the press was gonna Obama. Yeah,

1220
01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:36,000
Speaker 1: you're shredding the constitution and you're doing all kinds of

1221
01:10:36,080 --> 01:10:38,760
Speaker 1: things that you know, like pulling the phone records of

1222
01:10:38,840 --> 01:10:41,600
Speaker 1: journalists and throwing them in prison. But you're so wonderful

1223
01:10:41,840 --> 01:10:44,200
Speaker 1: and you're such a genius, and we just want to

1224
01:10:44,280 --> 01:10:47,719
Speaker 1: thank you for being such an amazing, wonderful genius. After

1225
01:10:47,880 --> 01:10:51,760
Speaker 1: eight years of that, to be in a position where

1226
01:10:51,840 --> 01:10:56,519
Speaker 1: that same press corps is now getting flying elbows from

1227
01:10:56,600 --> 01:11:00,680
Speaker 1: the top buckle, so to speak. Never never Back in

1228
01:11:00,720 --> 01:11:02,280
Speaker 1: the old days, I used to I watched a lot

1229
01:11:02,320 --> 01:11:03,960
Speaker 1: of w w F growing up. Now it's w w

1230
01:11:04,080 --> 01:11:07,599
Speaker 1: E remind I gotta watch The Honder of the Giant documentary.

1231
01:11:07,640 --> 01:11:10,559
Speaker 1: People say it's really good, total side note, non sequitor.

1232
01:11:11,160 --> 01:11:13,120
Speaker 1: But the press corps a bunch of whiny babies right now.

1233
01:11:13,160 --> 01:11:14,720
Speaker 1: If they think that what's going on with Trump is

1234
01:11:14,760 --> 01:11:16,640
Speaker 1: such a big deal, such a bad thing for them,

1235
01:11:16,680 --> 01:11:18,280
Speaker 1: we all know it's a good thing for them. It

1236
01:11:18,439 --> 01:11:22,360
Speaker 1: is career enhancing. If I were the rep which is

1237
01:11:22,640 --> 01:11:27,280
Speaker 1: uh insider you know, west coast speak or East coast

1238
01:11:27,280 --> 01:11:32,240
Speaker 1: speak too, sorry, coastal speak for being somebody's agent. If

1239
01:11:32,280 --> 01:11:34,320
Speaker 1: I were the REPS, I would be like, this is

1240
01:11:34,400 --> 01:11:37,360
Speaker 1: great for you. Keep it going because you're already not

1241
01:11:37,439 --> 01:11:41,000
Speaker 1: a journalist. You're a pundit pretending to be a journalist.

1242
01:11:41,120 --> 01:11:44,640
Speaker 1: Not the same thing. So I have I'm shedding no

1243
01:11:44,760 --> 01:11:48,879
Speaker 1: tears for them. Uh, no tears at all. Buck Sexton

1244
01:11:49,600 --> 01:11:54,160
Speaker 1: to coding the news and disseminating information with actionable intelligence.

1245
01:11:56,360 --> 01:12:00,120
Speaker 1: Make no mistake American. You're a great American. Again is

1246
01:12:00,800 --> 01:12:10,120
Speaker 1: the buck Sexton show? Thomas Cia analysts. No, just talks

1247
01:12:10,160 --> 01:12:14,479
Speaker 1: of asylum hopefully being prepared. I can't guarantee anything, but

1248
01:12:15,120 --> 01:12:17,280
Speaker 1: he said that was right when I said that no

1249
01:12:17,400 --> 01:12:19,800
Speaker 1: one has the right to take any children away, or

1250
01:12:19,880 --> 01:12:23,559
Speaker 1: any anyone in general away from their loved ones, apart

1251
01:12:23,640 --> 01:12:27,720
Speaker 1: from God. The Pope realized, and I'm open the way

1252
01:12:27,840 --> 01:12:31,040
Speaker 1: they're realized. Just because you have a pole brain, it's

1253
01:12:31,080 --> 01:12:32,479
Speaker 1: kind of doesn't mean you have to die on the

1254
01:12:32,520 --> 01:12:34,920
Speaker 1: doctors say, so, we all die in our own way,

1255
01:12:34,960 --> 01:12:36,760
Speaker 1: and we'll all die naturally. And that's always one for

1256
01:12:36,840 --> 01:12:39,320
Speaker 1: my son, and that's always Kate vicious for you from

1257
01:12:39,360 --> 01:12:41,400
Speaker 1: to die in his own way, enough to be made

1258
01:12:41,439 --> 01:12:45,360
Speaker 1: at on to be suffocated by a hospital can't diagnose

1259
01:12:45,479 --> 01:12:48,200
Speaker 1: him and have failed him. That was Thomas Evans, the

1260
01:12:48,320 --> 01:12:53,040
Speaker 1: father of a twenty three month old baby boy, Alfhie Evans,

1261
01:12:53,520 --> 01:12:59,760
Speaker 1: who has a degenerative neurological disorder that has now brought

1262
01:12:59,840 --> 01:13:02,920
Speaker 1: him to a point where he perhaps has hours to live.

1263
01:13:03,840 --> 01:13:08,880
Speaker 1: He's been taken off of life support and we are

1264
01:13:08,920 --> 01:13:12,559
Speaker 1: at any moment now likely to hear that young Alphie

1265
01:13:12,680 --> 01:13:19,320
Speaker 1: has passed away. This is over the objections of his parents, however,

1266
01:13:20,040 --> 01:13:24,720
Speaker 1: who want to take him for emergency medical help at

1267
01:13:24,880 --> 01:13:30,280
Speaker 1: the Vatican's own pediatric hospital. The Vatican and the Pope

1268
01:13:30,520 --> 01:13:33,240
Speaker 1: have taken an interest in trying to help Alphie Evans,

1269
01:13:34,360 --> 01:13:40,040
Speaker 1: and the UK authorities British judges have decided that Alfhie

1270
01:13:40,040 --> 01:13:44,160
Speaker 1: Evans as parents, don't get the right to seek a

1271
01:13:44,320 --> 01:13:49,280
Speaker 1: cure or any help whatsoever for their son. According the

1272
01:13:49,439 --> 01:13:53,479
Speaker 1: UK earlier today decided that Alphie Evans has one right

1273
01:13:53,720 --> 01:13:56,519
Speaker 1: at this point, and one right only, and that is

1274
01:13:57,080 --> 01:14:02,400
Speaker 1: to die. It's a deeply troubling case and goes to

1275
01:14:04,360 --> 01:14:07,519
Speaker 1: many of the core objections that we as conservatives have

1276
01:14:08,200 --> 01:14:13,360
Speaker 1: about an all too powerful federal or national level government

1277
01:14:14,160 --> 01:14:17,120
Speaker 1: in the UK, the government will step in in cases

1278
01:14:17,240 --> 01:14:20,479
Speaker 1: like this and decide that it acts in the best

1279
01:14:20,600 --> 01:14:24,200
Speaker 1: interests of the child, not the parents who love the

1280
01:14:24,320 --> 01:14:27,240
Speaker 1: child and who are desperate to do anything in their

1281
01:14:27,320 --> 01:14:32,400
Speaker 1: power to give it hope, to give the child, perhaps

1282
01:14:32,479 --> 01:14:35,680
Speaker 1: a cure, or even just a few more months, a

1283
01:14:35,760 --> 01:14:39,320
Speaker 1: few more weeks of life on this earth. But I

1284
01:14:39,400 --> 01:14:44,000
Speaker 1: want to be very clear, and this is reminiscent of

1285
01:14:44,400 --> 01:14:47,200
Speaker 1: the Charlie Guard case. And while ago Charlie Guard was

1286
01:14:47,320 --> 01:14:50,200
Speaker 1: a young boy who was in a similar situation in

1287
01:14:50,240 --> 01:14:53,519
Speaker 1: the UK, and he has since passed away. But this

1288
01:14:53,720 --> 01:14:56,840
Speaker 1: isn't that the UK government is saying we won't pay

1289
01:14:56,960 --> 01:15:01,040
Speaker 1: for some experimental treatment. It's not that the UK government

1290
01:15:01,280 --> 01:15:05,080
Speaker 1: is saying just that there's nothing more they can do

1291
01:15:05,280 --> 01:15:07,960
Speaker 1: for the boy, although they have said that, and the

1292
01:15:08,080 --> 01:15:11,680
Speaker 1: alder Hey Hospital where he's being held has thrown off

1293
01:15:11,720 --> 01:15:16,080
Speaker 1: their hands and is essentially just waiting for uh, the

1294
01:15:16,640 --> 01:15:21,519
Speaker 1: young boy Alphie to die. But the courts and the

1295
01:15:21,600 --> 01:15:23,640
Speaker 1: government in the United Kingdom, where you do have a

1296
01:15:23,840 --> 01:15:28,280
Speaker 1: national health service, everyone you have nationalized health care, they've

1297
01:15:28,360 --> 01:15:33,960
Speaker 1: decided that no one else is allowed to try and

1298
01:15:34,200 --> 01:15:39,439
Speaker 1: help Alfie Evans. That even the intercession of the Pope,

1299
01:15:40,560 --> 01:15:43,960
Speaker 1: which has occurred here, the Pope himself has weighed in

1300
01:15:44,160 --> 01:15:48,680
Speaker 1: and wants to help provide assistance to Alphie Evans, that

1301
01:15:49,200 --> 01:15:52,640
Speaker 1: does not move the authorities in the UK. They are

1302
01:15:52,760 --> 01:15:56,519
Speaker 1: telling outsiders here that no one is allowed to try

1303
01:15:56,640 --> 01:15:59,679
Speaker 1: and save Alphie at this point, who clearly has nothing

1304
01:15:59,760 --> 01:16:04,040
Speaker 1: to lose and his life to gain in the process.

1305
01:16:04,600 --> 01:16:08,320
Speaker 1: The UK has said, you aren't allowed to help this boy.

1306
01:16:08,439 --> 01:16:12,320
Speaker 1: He is only young. Alphie Evans is only allowed to die.

1307
01:16:12,640 --> 01:16:16,000
Speaker 1: They've taken him off life support. He is slowly being

1308
01:16:16,160 --> 01:16:20,720
Speaker 1: starved and quite honestly going through a process that could

1309
01:16:20,760 --> 01:16:26,599
Speaker 1: only be described as a slow physician assisted suicide courtesy

1310
01:16:26,720 --> 01:16:29,560
Speaker 1: of the National Health Service in the United Kingdom. And

1311
01:16:29,680 --> 01:16:33,280
Speaker 1: as his dad Thomas Evans said at the at the

1312
01:16:33,439 --> 01:16:38,280
Speaker 1: start of the segment, the authorities have already failed Alphie Evans.

1313
01:16:38,880 --> 01:16:42,160
Speaker 1: They can't diagnose him at the alder Hey hospital where

1314
01:16:42,160 --> 01:16:45,479
Speaker 1: he's held, they have no treatment options available for him.

1315
01:16:45,840 --> 01:16:49,040
Speaker 1: They've been able to do nothing for him. And yet

1316
01:16:49,160 --> 01:16:53,360
Speaker 1: they claim the absolute certainty of knowing that a boy

1317
01:16:53,520 --> 01:16:57,920
Speaker 1: that is days, perhaps hours from dying is better off

1318
01:16:58,360 --> 01:17:02,400
Speaker 1: just being allowed to I then getting the possible treatment

1319
01:17:02,439 --> 01:17:05,479
Speaker 1: offered to him in Italy, the Vatican, the Italian government,

1320
01:17:05,720 --> 01:17:10,120
Speaker 1: They've sent a plane. A plane is sitting on standby

1321
01:17:10,360 --> 01:17:14,559
Speaker 1: right now. They have emergency medical personnel in place, ready

1322
01:17:14,600 --> 01:17:19,200
Speaker 1: to do everything they can for Alphie Evans. And the

1323
01:17:19,360 --> 01:17:28,639
Speaker 1: UK government says no. They say no. Alphie was breathing

1324
01:17:28,920 --> 01:17:32,520
Speaker 1: on his own earlier today, had been given some oxygen,

1325
01:17:33,080 --> 01:17:39,120
Speaker 1: but his life support has been turned off. This is

1326
01:17:39,479 --> 01:17:43,600
Speaker 1: deeply troubling. There's also a lot of security around this.

1327
01:17:44,360 --> 01:17:47,760
Speaker 1: The proceedings in court were treated like there was some

1328
01:17:47,880 --> 01:17:50,360
Speaker 1: kind of a terrorist who was appearing before the judge.

1329
01:17:50,360 --> 01:17:52,920
Speaker 1: They were searching people. I mean, the UK is really

1330
01:17:52,960 --> 01:17:55,840
Speaker 1: trying to make some kind of bizarre point here about

1331
01:17:55,880 --> 01:18:00,400
Speaker 1: who's really in charge. And the answer my ends and

1332
01:18:00,520 --> 01:18:02,840
Speaker 1: most of the world when it comes to who's in

1333
01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:07,960
Speaker 1: charge you or the government is the government. This is

1334
01:18:07,960 --> 01:18:10,200
Speaker 1: an important reminder for all of us here in the

1335
01:18:10,280 --> 01:18:14,400
Speaker 1: United States, where we have the strongest tradition of any

1336
01:18:14,920 --> 01:18:19,479
Speaker 1: major country of individual rights and individual liberty, that this

1337
01:18:19,720 --> 01:18:23,040
Speaker 1: is a constant battle that we have to wage. When

1338
01:18:23,080 --> 01:18:25,880
Speaker 1: you have parents who are told that the state has

1339
01:18:25,920 --> 01:18:28,479
Speaker 1: a better sense of the interests of a child that

1340
01:18:28,600 --> 01:18:33,080
Speaker 1: the state has already failed and already abandoned. Mind you,

1341
01:18:34,280 --> 01:18:38,000
Speaker 1: you know that state is m and authoritarianism are all

1342
01:18:38,120 --> 01:18:42,360
Speaker 1: too reel. Even in a developed westernized country, our own,

1343
01:18:43,000 --> 01:18:48,080
Speaker 1: uh grandfather country, if you will, the United Kingdom. You

1344
01:18:48,200 --> 01:18:52,160
Speaker 1: also have the hubrists of the medical profession here where

1345
01:18:52,240 --> 01:18:55,280
Speaker 1: I could sit and talk to you at length about

1346
01:18:55,479 --> 01:18:59,880
Speaker 1: the history of conventional wisdom not just within the scientific

1347
01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:04,360
Speaker 1: community that was blatantly wrong, but the history of conventional

1348
01:19:04,439 --> 01:19:08,720
Speaker 1: wisdom within the medical community that really, until the twentieth

1349
01:19:08,800 --> 01:19:14,000
Speaker 1: century was responsible for a lot more harm than good.

1350
01:19:14,439 --> 01:19:19,560
Speaker 1: One of the great ironies of the Hippocratic corpus, the

1351
01:19:19,720 --> 01:19:22,120
Speaker 1: text from which we get the Hippocratic Oath, is at

1352
01:19:22,120 --> 01:19:26,000
Speaker 1: a hippocratic approach to medicine overall. Forget about just the

1353
01:19:26,120 --> 01:19:32,040
Speaker 1: do no harm, but the multifaceted, it's all connected approach

1354
01:19:32,800 --> 01:19:35,920
Speaker 1: for a long time in history was actually counterproductive. I

1355
01:19:36,000 --> 01:19:39,400
Speaker 1: wonder how many of these doctors who can't even say

1356
01:19:39,760 --> 01:19:43,040
Speaker 1: what is afflicting Alfhie Evans in the UK. I wonder

1357
01:19:43,080 --> 01:19:45,519
Speaker 1: how many of them know the history of their own

1358
01:19:45,640 --> 01:19:49,320
Speaker 1: city of London when it came to cholera. Do you

1359
01:19:49,360 --> 01:19:52,280
Speaker 1: know that until the mid nineteenth century, the entire medical

1360
01:19:52,360 --> 01:19:55,719
Speaker 1: profession in London at that point, the most advanced city

1361
01:19:55,760 --> 01:19:59,880
Speaker 1: in the world, was convinced that cholera, which essentially comes

1362
01:20:00,040 --> 01:20:03,439
Speaker 1: from human feces in the water supply, was the result

1363
01:20:03,600 --> 01:20:07,880
Speaker 1: of bad smells in the air, myasthma's they called it,

1364
01:20:08,120 --> 01:20:10,040
Speaker 1: and well into the middle of the nineteenth century, in

1365
01:20:10,080 --> 01:20:13,639
Speaker 1: the eighteen fifties eighteen sixties, it was believed in London

1366
01:20:13,760 --> 01:20:17,679
Speaker 1: that the cholera outbreaks that would happen near and around

1367
01:20:17,760 --> 01:20:21,120
Speaker 1: the Thames River where the result of those bad smells.

1368
01:20:21,400 --> 01:20:23,720
Speaker 1: Occasionally a doctor would come along who said, hold on

1369
01:20:23,800 --> 01:20:26,360
Speaker 1: a second, if you look at how this disease spreads,

1370
01:20:26,920 --> 01:20:30,519
Speaker 1: it's clear that it's the water supply. It's not stinky air,

1371
01:20:31,040 --> 01:20:35,120
Speaker 1: you idiots, that is causing outbreaks that would kill thousands

1372
01:20:35,160 --> 01:20:37,760
Speaker 1: and thousands of people. But they would shut him down.

1373
01:20:38,840 --> 01:20:42,599
Speaker 1: The science was settled. You see. Until we had an

1374
01:20:42,640 --> 01:20:48,800
Speaker 1: understanding of microbiology, the medical profession was under the very

1375
01:20:48,920 --> 01:20:53,479
Speaker 1: mistaken belief that cholera and other waterborne pathogens were the

1376
01:20:53,600 --> 01:20:58,200
Speaker 1: result of bad air myasthma's. As I said, and there's

1377
01:20:58,240 --> 01:21:01,600
Speaker 1: still plenty of that. Doctors don't know. It's hard not

1378
01:21:01,720 --> 01:21:03,960
Speaker 1: to come away from this Alphi Evans case, and feel

1379
01:21:04,040 --> 01:21:08,280
Speaker 1: like there's something of an arrogance that has overtaken the

1380
01:21:08,439 --> 01:21:13,479
Speaker 1: medical profession involved with this in the UK, that alder Hey,

1381
01:21:14,320 --> 01:21:18,360
Speaker 1: as alder Hey's staff and the various physicians assigned to

1382
01:21:18,439 --> 01:21:21,560
Speaker 1: this case. I don't want to be shown up and

1383
01:21:21,640 --> 01:21:24,800
Speaker 1: shown that they are wrong, and I don't want to

1384
01:21:24,840 --> 01:21:27,360
Speaker 1: hear about how it prevents the suffering of this child.

1385
01:21:27,479 --> 01:21:31,120
Speaker 1: After travel, they have a jet waiting for him and

1386
01:21:31,240 --> 01:21:35,600
Speaker 1: highly trained medical personnel. The Italian government has offered him citizenship.

1387
01:21:36,280 --> 01:21:38,639
Speaker 1: We are talking about a twenty three month old baby

1388
01:21:38,720 --> 01:21:41,240
Speaker 1: that needs amnesty to go to Italy, to leave the

1389
01:21:41,400 --> 01:21:45,439
Speaker 1: UK and escape the grips of the national health service there.

1390
01:21:46,080 --> 01:21:48,839
Speaker 1: That has decided the only thing that anyone is allowed

1391
01:21:48,920 --> 01:21:51,920
Speaker 1: to do for twenty three month old Alphie Evans is

1392
01:21:52,160 --> 01:21:57,240
Speaker 1: watch him slowly die. Make no mistake about it. This

1393
01:21:57,360 --> 01:22:00,680
Speaker 1: can happen just across the Atlantic in a country that

1394
01:22:00,880 --> 01:22:02,800
Speaker 1: is quite close to us in its history and also

1395
01:22:02,920 --> 01:22:05,880
Speaker 1: its culture and its law. Our own common law comes

1396
01:22:05,960 --> 01:22:08,919
Speaker 1: from England. It's not far off from being a reality

1397
01:22:09,040 --> 01:22:14,080
Speaker 1: here too. So remember this today. It's very little coverage

1398
01:22:14,120 --> 01:22:17,080
Speaker 1: of it will happen in the media. Alphi Evans is

1399
01:22:17,160 --> 01:22:20,439
Speaker 1: being denied a right to fight for his life. His

1400
01:22:20,600 --> 01:22:23,559
Speaker 1: parents are being denied the right to fight for his life.

1401
01:22:23,880 --> 01:22:26,880
Speaker 1: The Pope and the Italian government are being denied the

1402
01:22:26,960 --> 01:22:32,600
Speaker 1: ability to try and help this child because government bureaucrats

1403
01:22:33,000 --> 01:22:46,040
Speaker 1: say so. I've spoken about Kanye West um so much

1404
01:22:46,479 --> 01:22:48,720
Speaker 1: early on in my career here, I've said that he

1405
01:22:48,880 --> 01:22:51,080
Speaker 1: is the only person that is in hip hop or

1406
01:22:51,160 --> 01:22:53,680
Speaker 1: that has a public stage, that is willing to think independently.

1407
01:22:53,840 --> 01:22:56,960
Speaker 1: I do not subscribe to group think. I think independently.

1408
01:22:56,960 --> 01:22:59,360
Speaker 1: I'm a free thinker, and I don't believe that because

1409
01:22:59,400 --> 01:23:02,160
Speaker 1: I have a certain in skin tone that I absolutely

1410
01:23:02,200 --> 01:23:04,759
Speaker 1: have to subscribe to all these ideas which on paper

1411
01:23:05,080 --> 01:23:08,040
Speaker 1: do not make any sense whatsoever. You've been following Kanye

1412
01:23:08,120 --> 01:23:11,040
Speaker 1: West's career, Kanye West has always been an outlier in

1413
01:23:11,240 --> 01:23:13,679
Speaker 1: terms of having his own mind and thinking his own thoughts.

1414
01:23:13,920 --> 01:23:15,960
Speaker 1: They told Kanye that he couldn't be in fashion, so

1415
01:23:16,080 --> 01:23:18,519
Speaker 1: he created an entire brand. They told Kanye that he

1416
01:23:18,560 --> 01:23:20,880
Speaker 1: couldn't like him, so he married her. Okay, so this

1417
01:23:21,040 --> 01:23:23,600
Speaker 1: is no surprise whatsoever. This is who Kanye West is.

1418
01:23:23,680 --> 01:23:27,799
Speaker 1: Fundamentally a free thinker. Now that was that was kanadas

1419
01:23:27,840 --> 01:23:29,960
Speaker 1: Oh and talking about she's getting a lot of a

1420
01:23:30,000 --> 01:23:31,880
Speaker 1: lot of play in the media right now because Kanye

1421
01:23:31,920 --> 01:23:34,320
Speaker 1: West said he likes the way she thinks. We had

1422
01:23:34,439 --> 01:23:37,479
Speaker 1: Candice on the show, as I mentioned to you about

1423
01:23:37,520 --> 01:23:42,680
Speaker 1: about a year ago. Oh and now she's getting all

1424
01:23:42,800 --> 01:23:45,000
Speaker 1: kinds of attention for speaking your mind. And that's all great.

1425
01:23:45,360 --> 01:23:47,200
Speaker 1: I do feel though, like there's a part of me

1426
01:23:47,320 --> 01:23:50,760
Speaker 1: that wants to just take a step back. Though we

1427
01:23:50,880 --> 01:23:53,679
Speaker 1: as conservatives, and this is nothing new with Candice. She's great.

1428
01:23:53,720 --> 01:23:56,240
Speaker 1: This totally sevord. This is about Kanye. We need to

1429
01:23:56,320 --> 01:24:00,840
Speaker 1: not get quite so excited whenever somebody who happens to

1430
01:24:00,880 --> 01:24:05,800
Speaker 1: be a celebrity says something even a little bit conservative.

1431
01:24:05,840 --> 01:24:07,800
Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's you can't point out and say,

1432
01:24:07,840 --> 01:24:09,840
Speaker 1: oh I like what Kanye said. Of course I'm doing

1433
01:24:09,920 --> 01:24:12,640
Speaker 1: that here on the show. But now there's like this

1434
01:24:12,720 --> 01:24:15,519
Speaker 1: whole movement that Look, I'm joking when I say that

1435
01:24:15,640 --> 01:24:18,880
Speaker 1: Kanye is the great philosopher of our time. Alright, Emmanuel Kant,

1436
01:24:19,160 --> 01:24:22,880
Speaker 1: he is not. But the guy's got some some cool,

1437
01:24:22,960 --> 01:24:25,360
Speaker 1: catchy songs, you know, I like. I like some of

1438
01:24:25,439 --> 01:24:28,240
Speaker 1: his funky beats. He's got some good tunes. I do

1439
01:24:28,400 --> 01:24:30,360
Speaker 1: have some of them on my I was gonna say,

1440
01:24:30,360 --> 01:24:33,000
Speaker 1: some of my iPod I really such a child of

1441
01:24:33,040 --> 01:24:35,360
Speaker 1: the early two thousand's here now you know, I've got

1442
01:24:35,439 --> 01:24:38,519
Speaker 1: it on my shuffle. You remember the shuffle that when

1443
01:24:38,560 --> 01:24:41,080
Speaker 1: that thing came out, I was like life change or bro.

1444
01:24:41,439 --> 01:24:43,800
Speaker 1: It was so small and you just click and listen

1445
01:24:43,840 --> 01:24:48,640
Speaker 1: to the different songs. It could hold like a hundred songs. Uh,

1446
01:24:48,920 --> 01:24:52,559
Speaker 1: it was amazing, you know. Actually the original iPod, because

1447
01:24:52,600 --> 01:24:56,160
Speaker 1: it's basically a hard drive just for music. They I

1448
01:24:56,200 --> 01:24:57,960
Speaker 1: don't know if it's still true, but they went they

1449
01:24:58,200 --> 01:25:00,280
Speaker 1: went through a period where you could actually a lot

1450
01:25:00,400 --> 01:25:03,320
Speaker 1: for them online on eBay. They became collector's items because

1451
01:25:03,320 --> 01:25:05,200
Speaker 1: you can have your whole music library on the whereas

1452
01:25:05,280 --> 01:25:07,320
Speaker 1: now for a lot of people, unless you're using a

1453
01:25:07,360 --> 01:25:09,160
Speaker 1: cloud service, it takes up too much on your on

1454
01:25:09,280 --> 01:25:12,760
Speaker 1: your hard drive. So people kind of like the original iPods.

1455
01:25:12,840 --> 01:25:15,160
Speaker 1: It could store like thirty thousand songs or something crazy

1456
01:25:15,240 --> 01:25:17,880
Speaker 1: like that, and that's all it does. Right. It's like

1457
01:25:17,960 --> 01:25:20,160
Speaker 1: me on radio. It's a lean, mean machine devoted to

1458
01:25:20,280 --> 01:25:23,160
Speaker 1: one purpose and one purpose only. It cannot be reasoned

1459
01:25:23,160 --> 01:25:26,800
Speaker 1: with and it will never stop. Uh anyway, So we

1460
01:25:26,960 --> 01:25:32,280
Speaker 1: shouldn't get so excited about this because inevitably the celebrity

1461
01:25:32,360 --> 01:25:35,120
Speaker 1: in question is gonna then say something that that all

1462
01:25:35,160 --> 01:25:37,920
Speaker 1: of a sudden, we're like, whoop, whoop. I don't really

1463
01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:39,960
Speaker 1: like that, you know, so just give it some time,

1464
01:25:40,000 --> 01:25:41,840
Speaker 1: and Kanye is gonna be like, you know, yeah, I

1465
01:25:41,960 --> 01:25:46,800
Speaker 1: like I like socialized medicine. And everyone's gonna say, well,

1466
01:25:46,920 --> 01:25:49,719
Speaker 1: you know, he was good on the whole free speech stuff.

1467
01:25:49,880 --> 01:25:52,519
Speaker 1: But look, it's fine. I'm just telling you don't go

1468
01:25:52,640 --> 01:25:57,600
Speaker 1: too far the pathway of thinking that or or embracing

1469
01:25:57,760 --> 01:26:03,160
Speaker 1: a celebrity for a limited range of commentary too much. Right.

1470
01:26:04,080 --> 01:26:05,800
Speaker 1: So there's that because I didn't even get to mention

1471
01:26:05,880 --> 01:26:08,640
Speaker 1: it on the show yesterday. I meant to, but I

1472
01:26:08,720 --> 01:26:10,240
Speaker 1: had so much else going on in my mind here.

1473
01:26:10,600 --> 01:26:14,880
Speaker 1: But you know, singer Shania Twain has had she has

1474
01:26:14,960 --> 01:26:19,000
Speaker 1: made well, really only one mistake, although she's had two

1475
01:26:19,120 --> 01:26:22,320
Speaker 1: missteps for her public persona. I'm just gonna say, by

1476
01:26:22,320 --> 01:26:24,479
Speaker 1: the way, do we think Shania Twain is a particularly

1477
01:26:24,479 --> 01:26:28,479
Speaker 1: you know man? I feel like a woman very uh,

1478
01:26:29,280 --> 01:26:31,800
Speaker 1: very commercially successful. I've seen it on a lot of commercials,

1479
01:26:32,080 --> 01:26:35,799
Speaker 1: but I've also never been at a party where somebody

1480
01:26:35,920 --> 01:26:38,080
Speaker 1: was like, you know, what we really need right now. Bro,

1481
01:26:38,640 --> 01:26:40,800
Speaker 1: you know what we we don't get this place lit

1482
01:26:41,840 --> 01:26:45,320
Speaker 1: Shania Twain. Is she that you're still the one I love?

1483
01:26:45,360 --> 01:26:47,519
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say because everyone's gonna turn off to

1484
01:26:47,880 --> 01:26:50,240
Speaker 1: the radio, but she's You're still the one I love?

1485
01:26:50,280 --> 01:26:52,960
Speaker 1: But that, yeah, I remember when I was younger. I

1486
01:26:52,960 --> 01:26:56,200
Speaker 1: mean she was quite lovely. There was that when in

1487
01:26:56,240 --> 01:26:58,280
Speaker 1: the MTV days when when that sort of thing you

1488
01:26:58,320 --> 01:27:00,679
Speaker 1: would see it all over the place. But she had

1489
01:27:00,800 --> 01:27:05,640
Speaker 1: the the temerity. Now she's a Canadian, so there's that.

1490
01:27:06,040 --> 01:27:09,000
Speaker 1: She the temerity to come out and say, uh, that

1491
01:27:09,439 --> 01:27:13,280
Speaker 1: she would have voted for Trump because quote, even even

1492
01:27:13,320 --> 01:27:17,439
Speaker 1: though he was offensive, he seemed honest. Do you want

1493
01:27:17,560 --> 01:27:20,960
Speaker 1: straight or polite? Not that you shouldn't be able to

1494
01:27:21,040 --> 01:27:24,439
Speaker 1: have both. If I were voting, I don't want b s.

1495
01:27:24,960 --> 01:27:26,760
Speaker 1: I would have voted for a feeling that it was

1496
01:27:26,840 --> 01:27:31,519
Speaker 1: transparent and politics has a reputation of not being that right. Oh,

1497
01:27:32,720 --> 01:27:34,120
Speaker 1: she said that, and then over the weekend she had

1498
01:27:34,120 --> 01:27:37,040
Speaker 1: to come out and say that, quote, I would like

1499
01:27:37,160 --> 01:27:40,080
Speaker 1: to apologize to anybody I have offended. In a recent

1500
01:27:40,120 --> 01:27:43,000
Speaker 1: interview with The Guardian relating to the American President, the

1501
01:27:43,120 --> 01:27:46,200
Speaker 1: question caught me off guard. As a Canadian, I regret

1502
01:27:46,280 --> 01:27:50,519
Speaker 1: answering this unexpected question without giving my response more context.

1503
01:27:50,560 --> 01:27:55,400
Speaker 1: All let me say this. You never apologize, folks to

1504
01:27:55,520 --> 01:27:59,720
Speaker 1: the outrage mob. This is you only apologize if you,

1505
01:28:00,040 --> 01:28:02,759
Speaker 1: as a human being, truly believed that you have aired.

1506
01:28:03,160 --> 01:28:07,240
Speaker 1: You have to now stand your ground because the left

1507
01:28:07,280 --> 01:28:11,639
Speaker 1: has adopted the King Jeoffrey approach to the public apology.

1508
01:28:11,680 --> 01:28:14,720
Speaker 1: Those you don't know in Game of Thrones huge spoiler here,

1509
01:28:14,800 --> 01:28:17,280
Speaker 1: So la la la, you know your muff yourself right

1510
01:28:17,320 --> 01:28:21,680
Speaker 1: now if you haven't seen Game of Thrones. But the

1511
01:28:21,760 --> 01:28:24,320
Speaker 1: guy admits to his trees and to get mercy and

1512
01:28:24,360 --> 01:28:26,400
Speaker 1: then he gets his head cut off. Right, that's the

1513
01:28:26,439 --> 01:28:28,120
Speaker 1: way the left does it. Now. You no longer go

1514
01:28:28,200 --> 01:28:30,120
Speaker 1: out there John that I just ruined Game of Thrones

1515
01:28:30,160 --> 01:28:32,080
Speaker 1: for you. I'm sorry, but you don't go out there

1516
01:28:32,080 --> 01:28:35,600
Speaker 1: and apologize because then you get you get the disdain

1517
01:28:35,920 --> 01:28:38,639
Speaker 1: and all the downside. Right now, they just think you're weak.

1518
01:28:39,720 --> 01:28:43,200
Speaker 1: It's also so crazy who gets mad at a country

1519
01:28:43,320 --> 01:28:46,000
Speaker 1: music singer for saying she would have voted for Trump?

1520
01:28:46,920 --> 01:28:49,760
Speaker 1: I mean, this is this is like you know my

1521
01:28:49,880 --> 01:28:53,240
Speaker 1: friend Tony the plumber from New Jersey, who's like I

1522
01:28:53,280 --> 01:28:56,040
Speaker 1: would have voted for Trump. I'm like, exactly, You're a catalyst,

1523
01:28:56,120 --> 01:28:58,479
Speaker 1: a hard working American. This is no surprise to me.

1524
01:28:59,600 --> 01:29:01,680
Speaker 1: Why is surprising a country of music? You know, it's

1525
01:29:01,720 --> 01:29:05,879
Speaker 1: not like a a PhD in Women's and gender studies

1526
01:29:06,000 --> 01:29:10,600
Speaker 1: from the University of the Northwest or something. Is that

1527
01:29:10,680 --> 01:29:13,000
Speaker 1: even a place I just made that up. Uh sounds

1528
01:29:13,040 --> 01:29:15,080
Speaker 1: like a university though, right. It sounds like a place

1529
01:29:15,080 --> 01:29:16,720
Speaker 1: where they'd have one of those crazy protests that we

1530
01:29:16,720 --> 01:29:18,240
Speaker 1: would make fun of. You're on the show. But it's

1531
01:29:18,280 --> 01:29:21,360
Speaker 1: not like someone like that came out or some you know,

1532
01:29:21,479 --> 01:29:25,320
Speaker 1: big left wing Hollywood celebrity. I mean, if country music

1533
01:29:25,400 --> 01:29:28,640
Speaker 1: stars Canadian or not I can't come out and say

1534
01:29:28,680 --> 01:29:31,559
Speaker 1: they'd vote for Trump, who can? So just I wanted

1535
01:29:31,560 --> 01:29:33,000
Speaker 1: to give you a little bit note of caution here

1536
01:29:33,040 --> 01:29:36,640
Speaker 1: before we all get too excited about one celebrity. Oh

1537
01:29:36,680 --> 01:29:39,320
Speaker 1: my gosh, I'm actually you've actually on the five earlier

1538
01:29:39,360 --> 01:29:43,360
Speaker 1: today they had Trump and Kanye side by side. This

1539
01:29:43,479 --> 01:29:47,640
Speaker 1: is really catchy. Go on, look, I celebrate Kanye, not

1540
01:29:47,720 --> 01:29:49,880
Speaker 1: his whole catalog, because some of his songs. If you

1541
01:29:49,960 --> 01:29:51,720
Speaker 1: saw the thing with him and Kim Kardashian on a

1542
01:29:51,760 --> 01:29:54,200
Speaker 1: motorcycle on YouTube, by the way, not for the kids,

1543
01:29:54,720 --> 01:29:58,720
Speaker 1: but yeah, haunting in a bad way. And you know

1544
01:29:58,760 --> 01:30:00,640
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. I mean, man has had some

1545
01:30:00,720 --> 01:30:06,080
Speaker 1: big misses. He's had some monumental not good stuff that's

1546
01:30:06,120 --> 01:30:07,240
Speaker 1: that he's put out there. But he's put out some

1547
01:30:07,280 --> 01:30:10,160
Speaker 1: good stuff. I like some of his interesting quips on Twitter,

1548
01:30:10,240 --> 01:30:13,120
Speaker 1: some of his philosophy. But just everyone, I'm just saying,

1549
01:30:13,160 --> 01:30:15,040
Speaker 1: pumped the brakes a little bit on the celebrity love

1550
01:30:15,520 --> 01:30:17,760
Speaker 1: when it comes to their political beliefs, because they're gonna

1551
01:30:17,760 --> 01:30:20,519
Speaker 1: break your heart if you get too attached. We gotta

1552
01:30:20,600 --> 01:30:22,920
Speaker 1: roll into a quick breaker. When we come back, I

1553
01:30:23,040 --> 01:30:26,519
Speaker 1: have amazing news for you, courtesy of France. But it's

1554
01:30:26,560 --> 01:30:28,760
Speaker 1: a program we should implement here in the States. We'll

1555
01:30:28,760 --> 01:30:34,479
Speaker 1: be right back Vive la France, my friends. Yes, Emmanuel Macron,

1556
01:30:34,640 --> 01:30:37,519
Speaker 1: he is in Washington, d C. Here, is hanging with

1557
01:30:37,640 --> 01:30:42,400
Speaker 1: the president. Now he's in the Rose Garden, no doubt smoking.

1558
01:30:42,520 --> 01:30:47,400
Speaker 1: The girl was staring at your wives, staring at any

1559
01:30:47,479 --> 01:30:53,080
Speaker 1: of the ladies and being very French. But Frances in

Speaker 1: him a little props. Play for me, John now in

1562
01:31:01,240 --> 01:31:05,840
Speaker 1: the fence. It will no longer be acceptable. Fall zy,

1563
01:31:06,120 --> 01:31:08,040
Speaker 1: Oh no, the more mure. Why do you cut off

1564
01:31:08,080 --> 01:31:12,040
Speaker 1: so quickly? We're not gonna it's the it's mercy buccoo. Monsieur.

1565
01:31:13,320 --> 01:31:15,800
Speaker 1: There is a study now that France will ban the

1566
01:31:16,000 --> 01:31:22,759
Speaker 1: use of meat like towns in the packaging for vegetarian food.

1567
01:31:24,360 --> 01:31:31,519
Speaker 1: Laraisy stance against the vegetarian is winning, Monsieur fantastique. No,

1568
01:31:31,640 --> 01:31:35,080
Speaker 1: this is for real, everybody. You will all right now,

1569

01:31:37,800 --> 01:31:40,360
Speaker 1: in there. Uh, you will no longer and we should

1571
01:31:40,360 --> 01:31:43,120
Speaker 1: follow in their footsteps here. I'm not gonna lie to

1572
01:31:43,160 --> 01:31:49,400
Speaker 1: you once or twice. I've decided that I, you know,

1573
01:31:49,479 --> 01:31:51,800
Speaker 1: I've picked something out of the frozen section, and I

1574
01:31:51,840 --> 01:31:54,280
Speaker 1: thought it looked like it was a delicious you know,

1575
01:31:54,680 --> 01:31:58,760
Speaker 1: barbecue something or other or burger or burrito of some kind.

1576
01:31:59,600 --> 01:32:04,360
Speaker 1: And I did notice the funky spelling of chicken. You know,

1577
01:32:04,439 --> 01:32:08,799
Speaker 1: they'll do H y K N, And I'm like, maybe,

1578
01:32:09,160 --> 01:32:13,040
Speaker 1: you know, everyone makes typos, everyone makes mistakes, and then

1579
01:32:13,040 --> 01:32:14,800
Speaker 1: you bite into it and you're like, what is this

1580
01:32:15,920 --> 01:32:21,320
Speaker 1: sponge like tasteless glue blob that i've and and why

1581
01:32:21,360 --> 01:32:25,120
Speaker 1: are they calling it chicken with a Y? Or uh,

1582
01:32:25,680 --> 01:32:27,840
Speaker 1: you know, calling it a The whole notion of a

1583
01:32:27,960 --> 01:32:32,120
Speaker 1: veggie burger, by the way, is like a pacifist action movie.

1584
01:32:32,520 --> 01:32:35,280
Speaker 1: It cannot exist, it cannot be. There's no such thing

1585
01:32:36,080 --> 01:32:38,680
Speaker 1: as a veggie burger, and therefore there's no such thing

1586
01:32:39,240 --> 01:32:40,600
Speaker 1: as or there's no such thing as a lot of

1587
01:32:40,600 --> 01:32:43,439
Speaker 1: these others in France. I'm giving them props here because

1588
01:32:43,439 --> 01:32:46,400
Speaker 1: they deserve it. May I see Blue Gloomy, see a sexton.

1589
01:32:46,520 --> 01:32:52,760
Speaker 1: You are a fantastique vegetarian, and vegan foods will be

1590
01:32:52,920 --> 01:32:58,240
Speaker 1: banned from using terms such as vegetarian sausage, vegetarian bacon,

1591
01:32:58,600 --> 01:33:03,559
Speaker 1: vegan bacon. That's right, it's not bacon. You may call

1592
01:33:03,680 --> 01:33:06,840
Speaker 1: it vegan bacon. But what you're really saying is I

1593
01:33:07,000 --> 01:33:11,559
Speaker 1: like to lie about this vegetarian thing you're eating. You're

1594
01:33:11,600 --> 01:33:14,400
Speaker 1: not fooling anybody. Yeah, Producer Mike is looking at me.

1595
01:33:14,520 --> 01:33:17,800
Speaker 1: There's nothing. If you could make something that was made

1596
01:33:17,840 --> 01:33:22,639
Speaker 1: of veggies on this on God's great Earth, that wasn't

1597
01:33:22,720 --> 01:33:25,599
Speaker 1: made of bacon, you'd be You'd be a billionaire. You'd

1598
01:33:25,640 --> 01:33:29,479
Speaker 1: be smacking Jeff Bezos with rolls of thousand dollar bills.

1599
01:33:30,240 --> 01:33:33,160
Speaker 1: You'd be walking around making it rain hondo's just for

1600
01:33:33,240 --> 01:33:36,480
Speaker 1: the fun of it all day long. But it's impossible.

1601
01:33:36,560 --> 01:33:41,120
Speaker 1: It is scientifically impossible. It cannot be done, and I'm

1602
01:33:41,160 --> 01:33:43,439
Speaker 1: just excited. I give a high five to a member

1603
01:33:43,479 --> 01:33:47,519
Speaker 1: of Parliament, Jean Baptiste. Morow it doesn't he sound like

1604
01:33:48,600 --> 01:33:50,200
Speaker 1: a guy that wears a top hat and carries a

1605
01:33:50,240 --> 01:33:56,040
Speaker 1: cane everywhere? Man, Jean Baptiste. It's a French. But he

1606
01:33:56,160 --> 01:34:00,880
Speaker 1: said that soya and tofu products cannot be cannot be

1607
01:34:01,040 --> 01:34:04,080
Speaker 1: marketed as any kind of milk or butter. This is

1608
01:34:04,120 --> 01:34:09,400
Speaker 1: a huge victory people, no more soy milk. The Europeans

1609
01:34:09,439 --> 01:34:10,760
Speaker 1: are ahead of us on this one. I'm just gonna

1610
01:34:10,800 --> 01:34:12,400
Speaker 1: say it. I'm just gonna come out and let you

1611
01:34:12,479 --> 01:34:15,120
Speaker 1: know what's real here. Soy milk is not a thing.

1612
01:34:15,840 --> 01:34:19,400
Speaker 1: Milk is delicious, as you know from Ron Swanson. Skim

1613
01:34:19,479 --> 01:34:22,719
Speaker 1: milk is water that's lining about being milk. But soy

1614
01:34:22,800 --> 01:34:27,880
Speaker 1: milk is really soy drink. If you want that stuff,

1615
01:34:27,960 --> 01:34:31,160
Speaker 1: that's fine. I mean, I can't stop you from pouring

1616
01:34:31,200 --> 01:34:34,840
Speaker 1: out the basin above your toilet and using that as

1617
01:34:34,920 --> 01:34:38,280
Speaker 1: drinking water. I think it's a bad idea. Technically it's

1618
01:34:38,280 --> 01:34:41,000
Speaker 1: separate from the bowl, but I can't stop you. Right,

1619
01:34:41,040 --> 01:34:44,400
Speaker 1: if you want to drink soy drink, that's up to you.

1620
01:34:45,160 --> 01:34:47,920
Speaker 1: But don't defame milk in the process. So that the

1621
01:34:48,040 --> 01:34:52,280
Speaker 1: French are are really up to something here, that they're right. Uh,

1622
01:34:52,600 --> 01:34:54,920
Speaker 1: they say that no one's ever really fooled by Think

1623
01:34:54,960 --> 01:34:59,280
Speaker 1: about who are they trying to fool? Vegetarians are all

1624
01:34:59,360 --> 01:35:01,080
Speaker 1: I mean and don't ean and he started on vegans.

1625
01:35:02,360 --> 01:35:05,040
Speaker 1: Vegan is like millennial for communists. Now, I mean, vegans

1626
01:35:05,080 --> 01:35:09,360
Speaker 1: are radical and you know they they know that what

1627
01:35:09,479 --> 01:35:11,920
Speaker 1: they're eating is not like to fur key, is not

1628
01:35:12,040 --> 01:35:14,800
Speaker 1: really a thing. So is it just to make them

1629
01:35:14,840 --> 01:35:18,680
Speaker 1: feel more socially acceptable around others? Like if I were vegetarian,

1630
01:35:19,360 --> 01:35:23,240
Speaker 1: heaven forbid, I'd be like, that's right, I'm rocking out

1631
01:35:23,280 --> 01:35:26,639
Speaker 1: with some beats and some celery sticks. If I feel

1632
01:35:26,680 --> 01:35:29,960
Speaker 1: really wild, maybe I'll have some porcini mushroom soun like

1633
01:35:30,080 --> 01:35:33,160
Speaker 1: you gotta own it, you gotta lean into it. Don't

1634
01:35:33,200 --> 01:35:36,040
Speaker 1: be like my porcini mushroom taste just like a cheeseburger.

1635
01:35:36,160 --> 01:35:41,240
Speaker 1: False for pinocchios. Your porcini mushrooms to do not taste

1636
01:35:41,320 --> 01:35:44,960
Speaker 1: anything like a cheeseburger, Don't you know, buck, don't play

1637
01:35:45,040 --> 01:35:47,880
Speaker 1: that don't try that nonsense. So I think we really

1638
01:35:47,920 --> 01:35:49,760
Speaker 1: need to start something here. We need to get rid

1639
01:35:49,800 --> 01:35:54,840
Speaker 1: of all this. No more of these uh these mess ups.

1640
01:35:54,880 --> 01:35:56,719
Speaker 1: What I'm trying to buy stuff in the frozen aisle

1641
01:35:56,760 --> 01:35:58,479
Speaker 1: and I see something and look, don't even make it

1642
01:35:58,560 --> 01:36:01,280
Speaker 1: look good. I mean, it's just false advertising. Across the board.

1643
01:36:02,439 --> 01:36:06,719
Speaker 1: There should be a section that has meat, a section

1644
01:36:06,800 --> 01:36:10,320
Speaker 1: that is for vegetarians, and another section for people that

1645
01:36:10,560 --> 01:36:15,439
Speaker 1: are super into not having fun in life for the vegans,

1646
01:36:15,479 --> 01:36:18,320
Speaker 1: and that's it. That's that. You know, it should be

1647
01:36:18,360 --> 01:36:21,400
Speaker 1: clearly marked, and you should call it whatever it is.

1648
01:36:21,439 --> 01:36:23,559
Speaker 1: You know, you call it your veggie patty, but don't

1649
01:36:23,600 --> 01:36:26,840
Speaker 1: call it a veggie burger. The French are right, we

1650
01:36:26,960 --> 01:36:31,280
Speaker 1: pay them homage messieur. So there you have it. Oh no,

01:37:35,840 --> 01:37:38,960
Speaker 1: that actually sounds awesome, and I want to take you

1665
01:37:39,080 --> 01:37:41,080
Speaker 1: up on that be great. If I could bring Miss Molly,

1666
01:37:41,120 --> 01:37:43,599
Speaker 1: I'd get all kinds of brownie points. I mean, short

1667
01:37:43,800 --> 01:37:48,120
Speaker 1: of getting her like backstage passes to see t Swift somewhere.

1668
01:37:48,439 --> 01:37:52,280
Speaker 1: I think Miss Molly would be uh super excited or

1669
01:37:52,360 --> 01:37:56,120
Speaker 1: almost as excited about like hanging with some baby pandas.

1670
01:37:56,160 --> 01:37:57,519
Speaker 1: Maybe I don't know what they have at the San

1671
01:37:57,560 --> 01:38:00,880
Speaker 1: Diego Zoo, but I'm sure there's some very cool, very

1672
01:38:01,000 --> 01:38:04,599
Speaker 1: cute animals. I love animals. When I was a little kid,

1673
01:38:05,000 --> 01:38:06,519
Speaker 1: I used to go around telling people that I wanted

1674
01:38:06,520 --> 01:38:09,439
Speaker 1: to be an animal conservationist. I was so young I

1675
01:38:09,479 --> 01:38:13,120
Speaker 1: couldn't spell. I literally couldn't spell conservationist, but I just

1676
01:38:13,200 --> 01:38:16,760
Speaker 1: knew that I liked animals a lot, and uh, later

1677
01:38:16,880 --> 01:38:19,800
Speaker 1: on I found out that conservation is still make a

1678
01:38:19,840 --> 01:38:23,920
Speaker 1: lot of money. So I decided that as much as

1679
01:38:24,000 --> 01:38:27,439
Speaker 1: maybe living in the wilds of the Himalayas looking for

1680
01:38:27,680 --> 01:38:31,400
Speaker 1: snow leopards looked cool on TV, uh, it's it's a tough,

1681
01:38:31,520 --> 01:38:33,240
Speaker 1: tough go so I didn't want to go that route.

1682
01:38:33,760 --> 01:38:36,200
Speaker 1: Next up here we have Julian Rats. Hey, Buck, I'm

1683
01:38:36,200 --> 01:38:38,840
Speaker 1: a podcast listener. I'm a little behind, but I heard

1684
01:38:38,880 --> 01:38:42,519
Speaker 1: your take on Kelly and Conway talking to Donna Bash.

1685
01:38:43,280 --> 01:38:45,320
Speaker 1: Isn't it funny how the left says Hillary lost the

1686
01:38:45,360 --> 01:38:48,439
Speaker 1: election because women listened to their husbands and sons about

1687
01:38:48,439 --> 01:38:51,240
Speaker 1: who to vote for. Yet the minute Kelly Ann's opinion

1688
01:38:51,360 --> 01:38:54,479
Speaker 1: is different from her husband's, CNN jumps all over it.

1689
01:38:54,880 --> 01:38:57,200
Speaker 1: I thought they were all for women being independent and

1690
01:38:57,280 --> 01:39:00,800
Speaker 1: thinking for themselves. Just my two cents from over here

1691
01:39:00,880 --> 01:39:05,200
Speaker 1: in rural New Jersey. Well, Julian, I obviously think there's

1692
01:39:05,200 --> 01:39:07,839
Speaker 1: a big double standard at work. That's just how CNN

1693
01:39:07,920 --> 01:39:10,120
Speaker 1: does things. It's a shame. I think it used to,

1694
01:39:10,240 --> 01:39:12,360
Speaker 1: actually really do. I think it used to make a

1695
01:39:12,400 --> 01:39:15,519
Speaker 1: good faith effort at being down the middle as much

1696
01:39:15,560 --> 01:39:19,240
Speaker 1: as possible, not perfectly so, always a little bit left skewing.

1697
01:39:19,400 --> 01:39:22,720
Speaker 1: But now it's just might as well rebrand itself as

1698
01:39:22,800 --> 01:39:27,040
Speaker 1: a Hillary pack with a media wing. Brandon next up

1699
01:39:27,080 --> 01:39:30,559
Speaker 1: here Rights. I'm not in Helman Province, but I am

1700
01:39:30,920 --> 01:39:33,839
Speaker 1: under Centcom right now and have yet to miss a podcast,

1701
01:39:33,960 --> 01:39:37,000
Speaker 1: even if delayed a few days. I missed the History

1702
01:39:37,080 --> 01:39:39,800
Speaker 1: Deep Dives. Your history podcasts were on par with Mike

1703
01:39:39,880 --> 01:39:42,760
Speaker 1: Duncan's History of Rome. I want to listen when I'm

1704
01:39:42,760 --> 01:39:47,679
Speaker 1: peteeing or doing busy work. Semper fi from Brandon. Oh. Also,

1705
01:39:47,760 --> 01:39:51,120
Speaker 1: Brandon adds in to monetize the History podcast, think of

1706
01:39:51,200 --> 01:39:53,760
Speaker 1: doing a fundraiser story every few months. We'll keep you

1707
01:39:54,040 --> 01:39:57,799
Speaker 1: in business. I recommend the History on Byzantium or British

1708
01:39:57,880 --> 01:40:01,160
Speaker 1: History podcast models. Not a bad idea at all. First

1709
01:40:01,160 --> 01:40:03,120
Speaker 1: of all, thank you for your service and thanks for

1710
01:40:03,280 --> 01:40:06,160
Speaker 1: the note. I really wanted the history podcast, but I

1711
01:40:06,400 --> 01:40:10,200
Speaker 1: just have. I got so many projects I'm working on

1712
01:40:10,360 --> 01:40:12,960
Speaker 1: right now, and I gotta pay the bills here in

1713
01:40:13,000 --> 01:40:15,040
Speaker 1: the Freedom Hut too. You know, we got got a staff,

1714
01:40:15,160 --> 01:40:17,320
Speaker 1: we got we got air time here, we got stuff

1715
01:40:17,320 --> 01:40:19,880
Speaker 1: we gotta do. But it is a labor of love.

1716
01:40:19,920 --> 01:40:21,479
Speaker 1: I will get back to it. It just might have

1717
01:40:21,560 --> 01:40:24,120
Speaker 1: to be piecemeal. We're thinking about it. I'm also going

1718
01:40:24,200 --> 01:40:27,519
Speaker 1: to be launching a different podcast that we're talking about

1719
01:40:27,560 --> 01:40:30,000
Speaker 1: this week. That will be a once weekly and it's

1720
01:40:30,000 --> 01:40:31,640
Speaker 1: just be kind of a behind the scenes like if

1721
01:40:31,680 --> 01:40:35,040
Speaker 1: we were all hanging out on Buck's tiny terraces here

1722
01:40:35,080 --> 01:40:38,160
Speaker 1: in New York City drinking say some G four tequila,

1723
01:40:38,320 --> 01:40:41,040
Speaker 1: as I am known to do, what would the discussion

1724
01:40:41,120 --> 01:40:43,000
Speaker 1: be like. Although it's just been me kind of talking

1725
01:40:43,040 --> 01:40:45,000
Speaker 1: to all of you, and we got a name for

1726
01:40:45,240 --> 01:40:47,120
Speaker 1: We're gonna launch it soon, but it will be a

1727
01:40:47,160 --> 01:40:50,040
Speaker 1: little bit of a of a Buck unfiltered Buck behind

1728
01:40:50,120 --> 01:40:52,720
Speaker 1: the scenes and that'll be a once weekly. Um. And

1729
01:40:52,960 --> 01:40:54,960
Speaker 1: if we can get that up and running and get

1730
01:40:55,120 --> 01:40:59,479
Speaker 1: enough folks subscribing to a downloading it, that will also

1731
01:40:59,560 --> 01:41:02,600
Speaker 1: help with returning to Shields High, which I was a

1732
01:41:02,680 --> 01:41:05,000
Speaker 1: one man band on it. I tell people that in

01:41:05,120 --> 01:41:06,640

Speaker 1: a looker. Nice job, bro. Anyway, God bless and Shields

1739

01:41:32,040 --> 01:41:35,160
Speaker 1: and a very very sweet person, very sweet young lady,

1742
01:41:35,200 --> 01:41:38,439
Speaker 1: and she's always asking how is how is the team doing? Buck,

1743
01:41:38,520 --> 01:41:40,080
Speaker 1: and I said, all the team is good. They send

1744
01:41:40,080 --> 01:41:43,160
Speaker 1: their love. Um. Next up we get Monica here, who

1745
01:41:43,240 --> 01:41:47,400
Speaker 1: writes voting present Obama did it over a hundred and

1746
01:41:47,520 --> 01:41:52,679
Speaker 1: thirty times as a state senator. Shields high. Well, Monica,

1747
01:41:53,160 --> 01:41:55,920
Speaker 1: you are correct. You get zero pinocchios on that one.

1748
01:41:55,960 --> 01:41:59,800
Speaker 1: Obama did vote present many many times. Uh, and then

1749
01:42:00,040 --> 01:42:04,479
Speaker 1: came president for eight years. Uh. William writes quote, I'm

1750
01:42:04,520 --> 01:42:07,639
Speaker 1: gonna make him work to kill me. Best real life

1751
01:42:07,720 --> 01:42:12,080
Speaker 1: quote since less let's roll James Shaw Jr. A real man.

1752
01:42:12,840 --> 01:42:17,479
Speaker 1: This guy is a ninja. William. I totally agree that guy. Uh.

1753
01:42:17,600 --> 01:42:19,960
Speaker 1: He stepped up and he did what was necessary to

1754
01:42:20,040 --> 01:42:24,080
Speaker 1: survive and was a hero in the process. And so

1755
01:42:24,640 --> 01:42:26,320
Speaker 1: it's a reminder to all of us. And I agree

1756
01:42:26,360 --> 01:42:27,720
Speaker 1: with you. By the way, I'm gonna make him work

1757
01:42:27,800 --> 01:42:30,080
Speaker 1: to kill me. That should be a mantra that they

1758
01:42:30,160 --> 01:42:35,240
Speaker 1: teach people in any of these extreme situation survival courses,

1759
01:42:35,280 --> 01:42:38,560
Speaker 1: self defense courses, because that has to be your attitude

1760
01:42:39,000 --> 01:42:42,120
Speaker 1: you can never you know, to borrow from Churchill. You know, never, never, never,

1761
01:42:42,360 --> 01:42:46,400
Speaker 1: never give in. Right, you cannot give in. And there

1762
01:42:46,439 --> 01:42:49,959
Speaker 1: are some situations where you will be told, even by experts.

1763
01:42:50,560 --> 01:42:52,320
Speaker 1: For example, one of them is you never get in

1764
01:42:52,360 --> 01:42:55,760
Speaker 1: the trunk of a car if someone's trying to kidnap you,

1765
01:42:55,960 --> 01:42:58,719
Speaker 1: or if someone's trying to take you to another location. Nope,

1766
01:42:59,080 --> 01:43:01,479
Speaker 1: you fight, because once you're in the trunk of the car,

1767
01:43:01,560 --> 01:43:04,160
Speaker 1: they have complete control of the situation and you're probably

1768
01:43:04,160 --> 01:43:06,840
Speaker 1: not getting out of there alive. So you fight. You

1769
01:43:07,000 --> 01:43:09,800
Speaker 1: never ever get in the trunk. That's just a rule.

1770
01:43:10,080 --> 01:43:12,599
Speaker 1: You can put that on the rule of of Buck Wisdom.

1771
01:43:13,400 --> 01:43:17,400
Speaker 1: Gardner writes next here, I love your show. Nice die

1772
01:43:17,479 --> 01:43:21,880
Speaker 1: Hard reference thrown in tonight as well, cost Get Together.

1773
01:43:23,520 --> 01:43:25,719
Speaker 1: It's always fun to work in a die Hard reference

1774
01:43:25,760 --> 01:43:28,920
Speaker 1: whenever you can. It is, in fact the greatest Christmas

1775
01:43:29,000 --> 01:43:33,920
Speaker 1: movie of all time. Uh John Rightes, Hey, Buck, I

1776
01:43:34,000 --> 01:43:39,360
Speaker 1: was just listening to your breakdown of the relaunch of Roseanne,

1777
01:43:39,720 --> 01:43:41,519
Speaker 1: and I couldn't help but notice the description of the

1778
01:43:41,560 --> 01:43:44,880
Speaker 1: theoretical show which you wished was around to depict a

1779
01:43:45,000 --> 01:43:49,479
Speaker 1: healthy conservative family perfectly described the show Last Man Standing

1780
01:43:49,560 --> 01:43:52,240
Speaker 1: with Tim Allen. You should check it out sometime. Another

1781
01:43:52,400 --> 01:43:55,360
Speaker 1: right leaning show is The Ranch with Aston Kutcher and

1782
01:43:55,600 --> 01:43:57,880
Speaker 1: Sam Elliott. Um I will check it out. John. A

1783
01:43:57,920 --> 01:44:01,639
Speaker 1: few other folks have given me the recommendation of Last

1784
01:44:01,720 --> 01:44:04,639
Speaker 1: Man Standing. Tim Allen's a very talented guy, interesting life

1785
01:44:04,680 --> 01:44:09,040
Speaker 1: story too. I haven't seen The Ranch with Ashton Ashton Kutcher,

1786
01:44:09,160 --> 01:44:12,080
Speaker 1: but I will also. You know what I'm actually instead

1787
01:44:12,120 --> 01:44:14,040
Speaker 1: of just saying this, I have a list of TV

1788
01:44:14,160 --> 01:44:17,280
Speaker 1: shows that I want to get to and I am

1789
01:44:17,560 --> 01:44:22,000
Speaker 1: I'm adding it on air right now, The Ranch and

1790
01:44:22,640 --> 01:44:25,320
Speaker 1: Last Man Standing. For those you're wondering what else is

1791
01:44:25,360 --> 01:44:30,040
Speaker 1: on my list? Here, Legion, Uh, The Americans, which I've

1792
01:44:30,080 --> 01:44:31,720
Speaker 1: seen a couple of episodes of, and I'm trying to

1793
01:44:31,760 --> 01:44:35,680
Speaker 1: get through more Battlestar Galactica, which I know people make

1794
01:44:35,680 --> 01:44:37,240
Speaker 1: fun of for being a little nerdy, but I have

1795
01:44:37,680 --> 01:44:40,960
Speaker 1: super brilliant nerd friends who say that it's an incredible show,

1796
01:44:41,640 --> 01:44:44,280
Speaker 1: so I would like to check it out. One thing

1797
01:44:44,400 --> 01:44:46,840
Speaker 1: is I watched the pilot and it seemed like the

1798
01:44:47,000 --> 01:44:51,519
Speaker 1: pilot of Battlestar Galactica relied on like a mini series

1799
01:44:51,600 --> 01:44:53,519
Speaker 1: that came before it, and I couldn't find the mini

1800
01:44:53,600 --> 01:44:57,160
Speaker 1: series can one of you Battlestar Galactica super nerds out there,

1801
01:44:57,360 --> 01:44:59,680
Speaker 1: and I say that with love send me a note

1802
01:44:59,720 --> 01:45:01,680
Speaker 1: on s book and tell me if I need to

1803
01:45:01,720 --> 01:45:04,439
Speaker 1: watch a prequel or something. Because when I tried to

1804
01:45:04,520 --> 01:45:08,719
Speaker 1: download off of iTunes Battlestar Galactica it there was stuff

1805
01:45:08,760 --> 01:45:10,840
Speaker 1: that had already happened. I'm like, wait, what this is

1806
01:45:11,040 --> 01:45:15,840
Speaker 1: episode one? Why am I missing something? Uh? Legion, Outlander,

1809
01:45:23,880 --> 01:45:28,120
Speaker 1: through some of that. That's my Oh and The Terror

1810
01:45:28,400 --> 01:45:31,720
Speaker 1: on AMC. Those are my shows that I am either

1811
01:45:31,840 --> 01:45:34,479
Speaker 1: just starting to watch or hoping to watch soon. So

1812
01:45:35,120 --> 01:45:39,120
