Speaker 1: Countdown with Keith Olderman is a production of iHeartRadio. Maybe
Speaker 1: they mrid Trump without revealing to him what part the MRID,
Speaker 1: hoping to find out if he'd stuffed the Epstein files
Speaker 1: up his assisted living facility. There are three different five
Speaker 1: alarm fires in his one remark about the MRI. He
Speaker 1: had only he doesn't know what part they MRID, So
Speaker 1: that's fifteen alarms. And of course there is also the
Speaker 1: chance of an actual fire, a fire in which Trump
Speaker 1: will order the Department of Justice to literally burn the
Speaker 1: Epstein files one alarm at a time. Let's start with
Speaker 1: him saying he was MRID, but he doesn't know what part.
Speaker 1: There is the simple fact that that remark is part
Speaker 1: of a clear, public, unmistakable, ongoing mental meltdown about the
Speaker 1: Epstein emails and the Epstein votes and the Epstein files.
Speaker 1: The second fact is that he said this ever under
Speaker 1: any circumstances, that anybody said this ever under any circumstances.
Speaker 1: The third is something you might not have pondered. What
Speaker 1: if he's not lying, What if he wasn't just not
Speaker 1: paying attention? What if he doesn't know what part day MRI?
Speaker 1: How the hell could that happen? First, exactly what he did, say.
Speaker 2: I had an MRI. I had an MRI. The doctor
Speaker 2: said it was the best result he has ever seen
Speaker 2: as a doctor.
Speaker 1: That said, but I.
Speaker 2: Had an MRI as part of my standard yearly or
Speaker 2: everyone I think they do it every two years. But
Speaker 2: I kept the physical every year and the result was outstanding.
Speaker 3: Did you know?
Speaker 2: I have no idea what they analyze, but whatever they analyze,
Speaker 2: they analyze it well. And they said that I had
Speaker 2: as good a result as they've ever seen it.
Speaker 1: Okay, I will start from the back with my third point.
Speaker 1: What if he's not lying and he really doesn't know
Speaker 1: which part the MRI was four? What if he's not
Speaker 1: just stupid or so gone that he didn't notice which
Speaker 1: part the MRI was four? How could that be possible?
Speaker 1: How could you have an MRI and not know why
Speaker 1: or where? Wouldn't you have had to have been unconscious
Speaker 1: for it? Oh? Is that the only way? I mean,
Speaker 1: even if they didn't tell you, wouldn't you figure it
Speaker 1: out just from how deep in the machine they stuffed you,
Speaker 1: or if they gave you, say, a helmet to where,
Speaker 1: or if they said, you know, turn your shoulder this way,
Speaker 1: or based on all the other MRIs you've had in
Speaker 1: your life, wouldn't The only way for you to not
Speaker 1: know what they were mriing would be if you were out.
Speaker 1: I had my first MRI in nineteen ninety six. I
Speaker 1: think I can remember everyone I've ever had and why,
Speaker 1: And I remember the day I had one in the
Speaker 1: morning and they weren't satisfied, so they put me in
Speaker 1: again right after lunch. I can remember every time I wondered,
Speaker 1: what if I get stuck in here like that baseball
Speaker 1: player Yvon Calderon did with the separated shoulder, and they
Speaker 1: had to call the experts from the manufacturers a ge
Speaker 1: to take the machine a part to get about. How
Speaker 1: could you not know? He has to have been unconscious,
Speaker 1: I mean more so than usual, or at least heavily sedated,
Speaker 1: at least more so than usual. Giving Trump the benefit
Speaker 1: of the doubt, believing what he says, insisting he's not
Speaker 1: lying or not paying attention, or is too stupid to
Speaker 1: know what an MRI is or how to spell it,
Speaker 1: and he's not too obsessed with being able to boast
Speaker 1: about a test, even if it's not that kind of test.
Speaker 1: Trusting Donald Trump, and the conclusion is when they gave
Speaker 1: him his MRI on October tenth, they knocked him out first.
Speaker 1: Oh why in the hell would they do that other than,
Speaker 1: you know, not wanting to hear him talk. The easiest
Speaker 1: explanation some people have to be sedated, rarely totally unconscious,
Speaker 1: but some people have to be sedated to be able
Speaker 1: to handle having an MRI. It's claustrophobic, and the taller
Speaker 1: you are and the heavier you are, the worse it
Speaker 1: can be. Trust me, from personal experience, I will tell
Speaker 1: you that Ivon Calderon got stuck story later in this segment. Still,
Speaker 1: only somebody so disconnected from reality that his only concerned
Speaker 1: about a test is if after it teachers stuck a
Speaker 1: gold star on my forehead. Only that kind of person
Speaker 1: wouldn't know why he got an MRI, even if he
Speaker 1: was out cold for it. So maybe that does explain
Speaker 1: Trump and the MRI. On the other hand, there are
Speaker 1: a couple of new treatments for Alzheimer's that require frequent MRIs.
Speaker 1: Well that's a coincidence, and infusions or injections which could
Speaker 1: leave you with a kind of semi permanently bruised or
Speaker 1: gray area on your say, hand, if that's where they've
Speaker 1: been injecting or infusing, well, that's another coincidence. Don anamab
Speaker 1: and lacanamab and they are the I did my own
Speaker 1: research flavors of the month on social media. The problem
Speaker 1: with connecting them to Trump is they require infusions no
Speaker 1: more than three weeks apart. Okay, that checks, but according
Speaker 1: to the lacanamab official site, the MRIs are scheduled before
Speaker 1: the fifth infusion, than before the seventh infusion, which is
Speaker 1: like three weeks later, then prior to the fourteenth infusion
Speaker 1: fourteen weeks after that, and then the next MRI is
Speaker 1: twenty four weeks after that. The more you read of
Speaker 1: that schedule, the more matching it to Trump becomes a
Speaker 1: conspiracy theory. He had an MRI and a cognitive test
Speaker 1: October tenth. We know he told everybody he had a
Speaker 1: cognitive test on April eleventh. There is no indication he
Speaker 1: had an MRI in April. You could construct a scenario
Speaker 1: in which it matches the MRI schedule for a lacanamab,
Speaker 1: but you're just constructing. Now all that could be a lie,
Speaker 1: or if Trump really doesn't know what part of the
Speaker 1: body of the October MRI was for maybe he doesn't
Speaker 1: know he had an MRI in April, or a series
Speaker 1: of them. Still, we are not QAnon here. We have
Speaker 1: absolutely nothing even to extrapolate from. So let's drop it
Speaker 1: for the moment. Just file it away somewhere, docket it
Speaker 1: more relevantly. They do not want you medicated for those
Speaker 1: check up MRIs, for the Alzheimer's drugs, let alone unconscious. Okay,
Speaker 1: The what if this is true idea boils down to
Speaker 1: the distinct possibility he really didn't pay attention and just
Speaker 1: got in the machine, sedated or not, and he only
Speaker 1: cared if he got a hundred points for still having
Speaker 1: all his body parts. So we move on. My second
Speaker 1: point is not so easily dismissed. However, how crazy it
Speaker 1: is that he said this at all, I mean for
Speaker 1: sound bite craziness. To me, this one is up there
Speaker 1: with the doped up kid asking is this real life?
Speaker 1: This real life? This doesn't need great analysis. Trump's nuts.
Speaker 1: But the first point, Trump is melting down over Epstein,
Speaker 1: and this whole thing about the MRI and everything else
Speaker 1: he's been talking about is all connected to this.
Speaker 2: If they had anything, they would have used it before
Speaker 2: the election. Okay, I can't tell you what they put
Speaker 2: in since the election, but if they had anything, you
Speaker 2: don't think they would have used it before the election.
Speaker 2: They would have planned he used it before the election.
Speaker 4: Have you pardon mass.
Speaker 2: Well, I haven't even thought about it, But I mean,
Speaker 2: I haven't thought about it for months. Maybe I haven't
Speaker 2: thought about it at all. You're just asking me a question.
Speaker 1: But I don't talk about that.
Speaker 2: I don't rule it in or out.
Speaker 1: I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't even think about it. You gotta find out
Speaker 2: what did he know with respect to Milklin, with respect
Speaker 2: to the head of Harvard, with respect of all of
Speaker 2: those people that he knew plenty, JP, Morgan, Chase, Yeah, Jennifer.
Speaker 1: Everything else he's been talking about is all connected to this.
Speaker 1: Repeated posts insisting everybody has to stop talking about Epstein,
Speaker 1: more and more proof therefore of the streisand effect, the
Speaker 1: almost ritual sacrifice of Marjorie Taylor Green because she suddenly
Speaker 1: started talking like a normal person, and I swear to God,
Speaker 1: she sounds exactly like somebody sounds when they've just quit
Speaker 1: using steroids. Quote a hot bed of threats against me
Speaker 1: or being fueled and eggedon by the most powerful man
Speaker 1: in the world, the man I supported and helped get elected.
Speaker 1: Aggressive rhetoric attacking me has historically led to death threats
Speaker 1: and multiple convictions of men who were radicalized by the
Speaker 1: same type rhetoric being directed at me right now, this
Speaker 1: time by the President of the United States. As a woman,
Speaker 1: I take threats from men seriously. I now have a
Speaker 1: small understanding of the fear and pressure the women who
Speaker 1: are victims of Jeffrey Epstein and his cabal must feel.
Speaker 1: As a Republican who overwhelmingly votes for President Trump's bills
Speaker 1: and agenda, his aggression against me, which also fuels the
Speaker 1: venomous nature of his radical internet trolls, the political industrial
Speaker 1: complex and the toxic, violent nature of American politics must end.
Speaker 1: Our country is worth saving, and it can only be
Speaker 1: done if we pull together and save ourselves. I mean, honestly,
Speaker 1: nine tenths of that could have been said by Liz Cheney.
Speaker 1: One of my favorite cliches is the political media industrial complex.
Speaker 1: My God, she and I might be related. The congresswoman's
Speaker 1: response is apparently heartfelt enough that her boyfriend Brian Glenn
Speaker 1: of Real America's Voice the Propaganda Channel, put out a
Speaker 1: series of posts yesterday supporting her. I love this woman,
Speaker 1: he wrote, and with pictures. Understand Brian Glenn's channel job,
Speaker 1: his career. It's predicated on shillin for Trump. This is
Speaker 1: the guy who attacked Zelensky last winter for not wearing
Speaker 1: a suit. Before Trump, Brian Glenn was a TV reporter
Speaker 1: in Dallas, Features not News. In twenty fourteen. He was
Speaker 1: covering the Texas State Fair Wild West pet Palooza and
Speaker 1: trying to address the thorny question of what a shelter
Speaker 1: dog would do to get a corn dog. That is,
Speaker 1: how too far they think Trump has now gone. Brian
Speaker 1: Glenn is willing to risk being put back on the
Speaker 1: Texas TV News corn Dog Beat, Live Local and Late Parking. Sorry,
Speaker 1: then there's Thomas Massey yesterday. Donald Trump can protect you
Speaker 1: in red districts right now by giving you an endorsement,
Speaker 1: But in twenty thirty he's not going to be the president,
Speaker 1: and you will have voted to protect pedophiles. If you
Speaker 1: don't vote to release the files and the president can't
Speaker 1: protect you, then this vote, the record of this vote
Speaker 1: will last longer than Donald Trump's presidency. I didn't know
Speaker 1: any Republicans knew that you already know. Trump's attorney general
Speaker 1: four months ago declared that there was nothing left on
Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein, nothing in the files that merited prosecuting anybody.
Speaker 1: Trump deflecting has declared that Attorney General Blondie should be
Speaker 1: investigating Bill Clinton. So now she's investigating Bill Clinton even
Speaker 1: though there's nothing in any of the tanks because there's
Speaker 1: nothing left on Jeffrey Epstein that merited prosecuting anybody, and
Speaker 1: has resumed calling the Epstein and trump Stein and pedophilia
Speaker 1: nightmares a quote hoax. So he wants Bill Clinton prosecuted
Speaker 1: for it. But it's a hoax. So Trump wants Bill
Speaker 1: Clinton prosecuted for it. But it's a hoax. So Trump
Speaker 1: wants to I give you now. Senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut,
Speaker 1: who unlike me, seemingly has not lost his mind about this,
Speaker 1: at a Texas Tribune event, this is basically perfect. Senator
Speaker 1: Murphy is playing out of f's, No f's given, no
Speaker 1: f's left to give, completely f free.
Speaker 3: These files and the fullest truth that we have available
Speaker 3: to us is going to be made public, and it
Speaker 3: is clearly the biggest scandal in presidential history. And he
Speaker 3: wouldn't be acting this way if he wasn't so deeply
Speaker 3: worried about what sits in those files. What we've already
Speaker 3: seen is immensely incriminating. Clearly, Donald Trump was at the
Speaker 3: center of a child sex ring. That is heartbreaking that
Speaker 3: the president of the United States was involved in that
Speaker 3: kind of gross, craven immorality. And it stands to reason
Speaker 3: that he wouldn't be fighting so hard to spin against
Speaker 3: this story, or bullying Republicans in the House to prevent
Speaker 3: the release of these files if there wasn't something especially
Speaker 3: and specifically incriminating in that information. Now, I think the
Speaker 3: scandal in and of itself could bring him down, but
Speaker 3: we also do have to contextualize it, because what Donald
Speaker 3: Trump is all about is protecting the rich and powerful
Speaker 3: and stealing from normal people, regular middle class and poor
Speaker 3: folks in order to enrich the rich and powerful. And
Speaker 3: this is very much part of that story. Yes, I
Speaker 3: am sure that there are both Republicans and Democrats named
Speaker 3: in those files. There are powerful people on both sides
Speaker 3: of the aisle. But what Trump is all about is
Speaker 3: not really playing a game based on politics, but playing
Speaker 3: a game based on wealth and influence.
Speaker 1: If you have wealth and influence.
Speaker 3: Donald Trump is going to protect you, and that is
Speaker 3: consistent through everything he has done during the first nine
Speaker 3: months of this administration.
Speaker 1: Wow. And I will add with my first actual astonishment
Speaker 1: in months yikes. This leads us to ask, therefore, how
Speaker 1: far Trump will now go to bury the Epstein files.
Speaker 1: I mean now that his government shut down to prevent
Speaker 1: the vote ran out of viability. And yes, there's already
Speaker 1: a partial answer. He's willing to co me Bill Clinton,
Speaker 1: fake prosecution, fake indictment, fake trial, fake prosecutor, just to
Speaker 1: delay the deluge. Brian Boutler says, the ultimate step in
Speaker 1: this regard is theoretically possible. To quote him, Trump could
Speaker 1: order DOJ to destroy Epstein file evidence. I'd bet an
Speaker 1: ear responsible amount of money. He writes that he has
Speaker 1: already barked this order at Pam Bondi and Cash Patel,
Speaker 1: but to no avail unquote, Well, why would they hesitate here?
Speaker 1: Personal responsibility? This is no matter who told you to
Speaker 1: do it. Destruction of evidence a huge crime, and guess
Speaker 1: who could be charged with it? Trump, Bondie, Patel and
Speaker 1: anybody who helped. Still, it is important to remember that
Speaker 1: Alexander Haig told Richard Nixon to burn the Watergate tapes
Speaker 1: in the Rose Garden with the press present. Haig also
Speaker 1: insisted Nixon asked him to burn the tapes, and Haig
Speaker 1: said he refused because he knew they would prosecute him
Speaker 1: into the ground quote get Manolo to do it. Haig
Speaker 1: said he told Nixon Manolo Sanchez was Nixon's valet, He
Speaker 1: was his Walt Naude. Nobody burned the tapes. Haig said
Speaker 1: it was his biggest regret they didn't burn them ultimately
Speaker 1: because many of Nixon's advisors still believed they were exculpatory
Speaker 1: and Nixon was innocent and the tapes would prove it.
Speaker 1: Oops emoji. So if you don't destroy the evidence and
Speaker 1: investigating Bill Clinton gets to you, nothing would Trump think
Speaker 1: bigger than that? Destroy not the Epstein files, but destroy
Speaker 1: the process by which Trump could be punished for whatever
Speaker 1: is in the Epstein files. Does he see it as
Speaker 1: some sort of existential moment requiring the whole ball of wax?
Speaker 1: Do those looking to succeed him in MAGA see it
Speaker 1: as such? Is there a potential Maga coup over Epstein?
Speaker 1: Is that what Trump is really trying to preclude here,
Speaker 1: not so much the Epstein tapes destroying Trump, but other
Speaker 1: MAGA doing so. Look at our false prophet. He failed
Speaker 1: us on Epstein. Nice apparatus he built. We'll keep that,
Speaker 1: but let's lose. That's this guy. The guy doesn't know
Speaker 1: what part of him got MRI the drip was that
Speaker 1: guy we had before? JD. Vance? What was his name again?
Speaker 1: Lump Greg's sergeant talked to the historian Nicole Hemmer, who
Speaker 1: has written books about the real internal convulsions on the
Speaker 1: right below the seeming surface of robotic cultish uniform worship
Speaker 1: of Trump, and she said, I am watching people like
Speaker 1: Vance and the factions around him, because again, this sort
Speaker 1: of civil war that has broken out on the right
Speaker 1: involves this idea of something called postliberalism, which is an
Speaker 1: idea of a post democracy society, a more authoritarian strongman
Speaker 1: society that isn't in any way reliant on Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: It could have JD. Vance as its figurehead, It could
Speaker 1: have some of these techno totalitarian elites as part of
Speaker 1: its head. There is a real philosophy on the right
Speaker 1: that is many ways post democratic. And that's the faction
Speaker 1: that I'm watching because it actually seems like the faction
Speaker 1: that has the most momentum behind at the moment ah
Speaker 1: Ms Hemmer, you always brighten my day. She continues, I
Speaker 1: think it's very possible that, because people want him to
Speaker 1: be the strong man, the authoritarian she's talking about Trump here,
Speaker 1: that in order to try to overcome this particular scandal
Speaker 1: in his administration, he is going to attempt to appease
Speaker 1: his base by seizing even more power and hurting even
Speaker 1: more people, which is entirely possible in order to defeed
Speaker 1: what it is they want. So I do still think
Speaker 1: that even though it could end up being a moment
Speaker 1: of real weakness, in a moment we look back on
Speaker 1: and say, well that was the end of Donald Trump's power,
Speaker 1: it could just as easily be the impetus for another
Speaker 1: power grab. And so I think we need to take
Speaker 1: it seriously. Okay, I got the last part covered, Thank you,
Speaker 1: miss Hammer. Well, isn't that special? A Trump responds to
Speaker 1: trump Stein that has him shutting down any part of
Speaker 1: the government that might be used to getting the Epstein
Speaker 1: files out, or any part of the government than might
Speaker 1: be used to blame him for Epstein or anything else
Speaker 1: that might divert So if he escalates, my boy Boutler
Speaker 1: says the resistance should escalate too, even if it is
Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer and the Quizzling Eight. He writes, Democrats have
Speaker 1: happily held their own in the jerrymandering fight. That is
Speaker 1: to their credit, but they could be clearer about why
Speaker 1: Trump is so desperate to rig the House elections to
Speaker 1: keep the Epstein files concealed. And if that's how he
Speaker 1: sees the stake, so be it. The midterms will be
Speaker 1: a referendum on whether Trump's pedophilia cover up should be
Speaker 1: allowed to succeed. Once again, yikes, there is a bigger
Speaker 1: picture here that should be acknowledged. Stage one of taking
Speaker 1: Trump down via the Epstein files, even if it means
Speaker 1: the midterm is keeping the story alive for another year.
Speaker 1: Let's go. If Trump attacks Venezuela, this might be a problem.
Speaker 1: American reporters like wars. They're easy to cover. You just
Speaker 1: have to show the pictures of them. Bob's blowing up.
Speaker 1: On the other hand, if Trump just keeps posting about
Speaker 1: how nobody is allowed to talk about Epstein, that's a
Speaker 1: different world and we can win that one back. It's
Speaker 1: a different world with different things blowing up. I promised
Speaker 1: you the Yvonne Calderone MRI story. If you actually are claustrophobic,
Speaker 1: first off, you know how you find that out. Get
Speaker 1: in an MRI. That's where you fight out whether or
Speaker 1: not you're actually claust your phone at all. If you
Speaker 1: are go forward, hit the go forward like thirty seconds,
Speaker 1: maybe twice. Okay. He was a barrel of a man.
Speaker 1: He was an outfielder. He's listed at six', one maybe
Speaker 1: not and two twenty maybe early in life he hit
Speaker 1: three hundred once for The montreal Expos his teammates adored.
Speaker 1: Him he died, violently shot execution style In Puerto rico
Speaker 1: twenty Three Christmases. Ago one story was drug dealers demanded
Speaker 1: he give them his, son who was messed up and
Speaker 1: mixed up with, them and they were pursuing, him and
Speaker 1: he refused and they killed. Him in any, event in
Speaker 1: his playing, career he tore up his, shoulder and in
Speaker 1: the relatively early days of THE mri late, eighties maybe
Speaker 1: he was getting it imaged and all was going well
Speaker 1: until they had him turn slightly while he was in the,
Speaker 1: tube and then they finished and they began to withdraw
Speaker 1: him from the, machine and he began to scream because
Speaker 1: in turning he had further separated the, shoulder and now
Speaker 1: he was broader than he was when he went, in
Speaker 1: so he was stuck. Again early in the history OF,
Speaker 1: MRIs so supposedly the hospital had no real experience with
Speaker 1: this and what to do about, it and they had
Speaker 1: to call in the, experts and the experts were at
Speaker 1: the company that made the, MACHINE, ge and the technicians
Speaker 1: were at THE ge headquarters FOR, MRIs which was two hours,
Speaker 1: away and they had to come and take the machine,
Speaker 1: apart which took another couple of hours to get him.
Speaker 1: Out so they have improved emergency procedures since then WITH,
Speaker 1: MRIs i'm, told and speaking of the feeling of being
Speaker 1: stuck inside AN mri for hours with no way, out
Speaker 1: there's working With STEPHEN. A smith or just watching. Him
Speaker 1: THE espn chief Time waster has apparently rededicated himself to
Speaker 1: self immolating by going into political commentary when he doesn't
Speaker 1: know anything about political, commentary and he will not bother
Speaker 1: himself to do any. PREPARATION i, mean just get some
Speaker 1: basic facts and, stuff have somebody print something out for,
Speaker 1: you put it in front of. You he has made
Speaker 1: a fool out of himself every time he has opened
Speaker 1: his mouth on this. Subject, actually it's, terrific it's wonderfully.
Speaker 1: Entertaining STEVEN. A smith insisted that if there had been
Speaker 1: anything damaging in The epstein, files The democrats would have
Speaker 1: released it long. Ago, therefore and he and he alone
Speaker 1: could figure it out this way that since The democrats
Speaker 1: did not release the latest dog that didn't bark and
Speaker 1: hours at my home with such and such emails during
Speaker 1: last year's presidential, campaign those emails can't really be. Damaging
Speaker 1: as the Reporter JULIE. K brown of The Miami, herald
Speaker 1: who is the expert on The epstein, prosecutions, noted What
Speaker 1: stephen doesn't understand is that the emails released Last wednesday
Speaker 1: are From epstein's. Estate they were obtained From epstein's lawyers
Speaker 1: pursuant to a subpoena that was issued by The House
Speaker 1: Oversight committee i. E. Lawmakers these documents are separate from
Speaker 1: the criminal case files held by THE doj and THE
Speaker 1: fbi That trump And bondi promised to release after the election.
Speaker 1: Unquote in other, words these, emails the ones we got last,
Speaker 1: week are new to the. Public gaze this year and,
Speaker 1: separately why didn't The democrats release what they had access
Speaker 1: to last? Year, well the case wasn't resolved until Last.
Speaker 1: October Glene maxwell's last appeal went on To october twenty twenty.
Speaker 1: Four you cannot empty your evidence files while you're still at,
Speaker 1: trial while you are still investigating. Others and by this,
Speaker 1: Point STEVEN. A smith has lost interest in details and
Speaker 1: he is pursing his. Lips it's his only, skill it's
Speaker 1: not his only. FAIL i am delighted to Report stephen
Speaker 1: wins The Professor David Dunning Dunning Kruger Effect trophy for
Speaker 1: the month by coming back in the new episode of
Speaker 1: his new politics, show which IS I think CALLED I
Speaker 1: know nothing about, politics BUT i know it loudly by
Speaker 1: saying this. Quote Jasmine crockett AND a have been invited
Speaker 1: on this show for four. Months Gavin newsom has been
Speaker 1: invited for longer than. That Chuck schumer has been invited
Speaker 1: on this. Show hasn't shown up where they. At, Well,
Speaker 1: steven since for once the obvious has not occurred to
Speaker 1: you and you haven't been followed it by taking the
Speaker 1: obvious and talking about it NonStop for four days ON.
Speaker 1: Tv i'll fill you in. Here crockett AND aoc And
Speaker 1: newsom And schumer think you're a moron and a right
Speaker 1: wing dupe and a waste of. Time steve that that
Speaker 1: may be your answer right. There also of interest. Here,
Speaker 1: NO i am not going to analyze The Olivia newsy
Speaker 1: profile In The New York times in advance of my
Speaker 1: ex's book, release but maybe. Later right, NOW i will
Speaker 1: add to one anecdote in, it which describes the start
Speaker 1: of her, career her first person expose Of Anthony wiener's
Speaker 1: disastrous run for mayor Of New york in twenty, thirteen
Speaker 1: when she became an. Intern as we discussed the merits
Speaker 1: of this and the appropriateness of, it she just wanted
Speaker 1: practical political experience before she became a political. WRITER i
Speaker 1: thought it was a good. Idea and then then she
Speaker 1: came home one day and she told me the story
Speaker 1: about how everybody on The Anthony wiener campaign was just
Speaker 1: hoping to meet Missus wiener and got onto The Hillary
Speaker 1: clinton campaign in twenty, sixteen AND i, laughed and she
Speaker 1: told me the other stories of him getting everybody's name,
Speaker 1: wrong AND i, wowed and she, said SHOULD i write
Speaker 1: this AND i, said, ethically it's kind of, close but, yes,
Speaker 1: Please and she was about to hit send on an
Speaker 1: email WHEN i asked her what that, was and she
Speaker 1: said she'd written it and she was sending it to
Speaker 1: a friend of hers who had a weekly political blog
Speaker 1: with a hundred readers or, so and she was going
Speaker 1: to do a guest post for. Him AND i, said
Speaker 1: are you? Crazy that should be in The New York
Speaker 1: post or The Daily. News it's not only great and
Speaker 1: really well, written it's actually. News people should know. This
Speaker 1: and she said she didn't know anybody at The post
Speaker 1: of The, news AND i just smiled a sitcom smile if,
Speaker 1: EVER i gave. One AND i gave her all the
Speaker 1: contact INFO i, had AND i, said cold call these.
Speaker 1: People somebody will buy it from. You leave my name
Speaker 1: out of. It and the next day her story was
Speaker 1: on the front page of The New York Daily news
Speaker 1: and under it was a giant glam shot Of Anthony.
Speaker 1: Wiener no, Sir womahammed, did no, sir a glam shot
Speaker 1: Of Olivia Newsy and the rest is. History more, later
Speaker 1: maybe because there's a lot THE Rfk junior. Stuff that
Speaker 1: wasn't her first rodeo in Crazy. TOWN i just want
Speaker 1: to find out what she says, first finds the parameters
Speaker 1: and the, barriers especially if she goes ON. Tv maybe
Speaker 1: she'll go On fox OR, msnbc Ms now and she'll
Speaker 1: be interviewed By Laura ingram or or she'll be interviewed
Speaker 1: By katie term that's. Next this is. Countdown this Is
Speaker 1: countdown With Keith. Olberman the exact anniverse is let's, see
Speaker 1: this is the sixteenth that was the, Eleventh so it
Speaker 1: was last, week middle of last, week nearly a week.
Speaker 1: Ago if you know this, story you'll know already whether
Speaker 1: or not you want to hear it. Again it is
Speaker 1: the story of my dog Me, shoot gone now for
Speaker 1: four years and yet anything but. Forgotten ahead in the
Speaker 1: last segment of the show first believe it or, not
Speaker 1: there's still more new idiots to talk. About the roundup
Speaker 1: of the, miscrants, morons Undunning krueger effects specimens who constitute
Speaker 1: today's other worst persons in the. World bronze Jd VANCE
Speaker 1: jv himself now new and, improved botoxed to the legal
Speaker 1: limit clearly and with a kind of Den bongino quality
Speaker 1: to his. Hairline is it's going. Bald it looks like
Speaker 1: some of his hairline has been drawn in and did
Speaker 1: the botox get into his? Brain. QUOTE a lot of
Speaker 1: young people are saying housing is way too. Expensive why is?
Speaker 1: That because we flooded the country with thirty million illegal
Speaker 1: immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right to
Speaker 1: go To american. Citizens this is either the worst OF.
Speaker 1: Jd vance's, lies or more, likely he actually believes this
Speaker 1: and there's something medically wrong with his brain, too because
Speaker 1: he wasn't this dumb even a year, ago let alone
Speaker 1: we managed to completely write a. BOOK a lot of
Speaker 1: young people are saying because the houses thirty million illegally owned.
Speaker 1: HOMES i guess the average home price in The United
Speaker 1: states is now approximately based on the second quarter of
Speaker 1: this year, data five hundred and twelve eight hundred. Dollars
Speaker 1: the median home Fight, brice which probably be a little
Speaker 1: bit easier to use as a, barometer four hundred and
Speaker 1: ten eight hundred dollars in the second quarter of this,
Speaker 1: Year so the median price for a house is more
Speaker 1: than four hundred thousand. Dollars so THE. Jd van's bete,
Speaker 1: noir the illegal immigrants, there they're stealing all the snap
Speaker 1: money that they don't actually, need, right they're eating, pets,
Speaker 1: right and of course they practice. Witchcraft well, no he
Speaker 1: hasn't said that, yet but give them, time and they
Speaker 1: each somehow find four hundred to five hundred thousand dollars
Speaker 1: apiece to buy, houses so you can have one over
Speaker 1: here in this DIMENSION. Jv, immigrants as it turns, out
Speaker 1: actually drive down the price of homes because the immigrants
Speaker 1: are cheap. Labor And i'm not endorsing, This i'm just
Speaker 1: saying what he is. True undocumented immigrants drive the price
Speaker 1: of homes down even further because they are even cheaper. Labor,
Speaker 1: Again i'm not endorsing, that nor DO i think it's
Speaker 1: a good. Idea i'm just saying what reality is as
Speaker 1: opposed to what this Asshole vance. Says, yeah, oh the
Speaker 1: immigrants are stealing all the gold From Fort knox, too
Speaker 1: and and and they stole my several of my. Chins
Speaker 1: you know why they picked, him you know why he
Speaker 1: is supposedly the air. Apparent he's he's the heir apparent
Speaker 1: because too many people during the First trump administration said, well,
Speaker 1: yeah but, yeah we get my we get My pence
Speaker 1: as the president then and, uh you, know he'd be
Speaker 1: easily influenced by. People but he's. NOT i, MEAN i
Speaker 1: don't like, him but he's. Not he's. Not now they're
Speaker 1: looking at At dvance and, GOING i don't know the runner.
Speaker 1: Up trump's, Son Ewick moron twin number two on the
Speaker 1: air With Maria, bartiromo so the TOTAL iq still was
Speaker 1: in single digits between the two of. Them he said,
Speaker 1: this you can send five hundred million dollars worth of
Speaker 1: bitcoin on A sunday night at eleven pm while having
Speaker 1: a glass of wine with your wife for virtually zero.
Speaker 1: Fees in addition to the let them eat cake cru,
Speaker 1: deites it's one, Banana, michael how much could it cost
Speaker 1: five hundred million dollars to this duffel bag Headed moron's.
Speaker 1: Remark in addition to that, Quality i'd like to focus
Speaker 1: on just the last part of that quotation From Eric
Speaker 1: trump while having a glass of wine with your wife
Speaker 1: for virtually zero. Fees while having a glass of wine
Speaker 1: with your wife for virtually zero, Fees So, eric you're
Speaker 1: saying your wife usually charges you fees to have a
Speaker 1: glass of wine with. Her actually that makes. SENSE i, mean,
Speaker 1: seriously people look at that family and Obviously trump's out
Speaker 1: of his, mind And Trump junior is a and you,
Speaker 1: know the girls are really not that. Bright, barren as
Speaker 1: we've discussed many, times is the smartest one because we've
Speaker 1: never heard him speak in, public but as an underrated
Speaker 1: candidate for the dumbest person in that. Family eric really
Speaker 1: is the sleeper in, this which is what his brain
Speaker 1: has been doing since at least the. Nineties but our,
Speaker 1: Winner Meghan. Kelly Meghan kelly had her own SERIOUS ExM
Speaker 1: channel until sometime Late thursday. Morning a career, ender if
Speaker 1: EVER i have heard. One this is When Meghan kelly
Speaker 1: decided to explain That trump's Friend Jeffrey epstein was not
Speaker 1: really a. Pedophile say, what Let's megan explain herself into
Speaker 1: a professional.
Speaker 5: Grave i've said this, before but this is a. REMINDER
Speaker 5: i do know somebody very very close to this case
Speaker 5: who was in a position to know virtually, everything not,
Speaker 5: everything but virtually. Everything and this person has told me
Speaker 5: from the, start years and years, ago That Jeffrey, epstein
Speaker 5: in this person's, view was not a. Pedophile this is
Speaker 5: this person's view who was there for a lot of,
Speaker 5: this but that he was into the barely legal type
Speaker 5: like he liked fifteen year old, girls AND i realized
Speaker 5: this is. Discussing i'm definitely not trying to make an
Speaker 5: excuse for. This i'm just giving you facts that he
Speaker 5: wasn't into like eight year, olds but he liked the
Speaker 5: very young teen types that could pass for even younger
Speaker 5: than they, were but would look legal to a passer.
Speaker 5: By we have yet to see anybody come forward and
Speaker 5: SAY i was a like A i was under, TEN
Speaker 5: i was under fourteen WHEN i came within his. Purview,
Speaker 5: look it's you can say that's a distinction without a. Difference,
Speaker 5: no it's.
Speaker 1: NOT i think there is a.
Speaker 5: Difference there's a difference between a fifteen year old and
Speaker 5: a five year.
Speaker 1: Old you.
Speaker 5: Know it's just.
Speaker 1: Whatever, now that's bad. Enough i'm not saying there's a.
Speaker 1: Difference she's. Saying but here's two minutes on why there's a.
Speaker 1: Difference but of Course Megan kelly is completely. Contradicting on
Speaker 1: top of just what she said, there she is utterly
Speaker 1: contradicting an authority on this, subject one that she has
Speaker 1: publicly relied on in the, past an authority on this
Speaker 1: subject of definitional. Rape the authority is Named Megan. Kelly Megan,
Speaker 1: kelly same one once slammed those who were Defending Russell
Speaker 1: brand against rape charges because the victim was, sixteen statutory rape.
Speaker 1: Charges she attacked the people defending. Him and then there
Speaker 1: Was Megan kelly's DISASTROUS nbc show in twenty eighteen where
Speaker 1: one day she said exactly the opposite of what she just,
Speaker 1: said trying to Excuse.
Speaker 4: Epstein so people who are going to be out, there
Speaker 4: because you know some are going to judge and, say
Speaker 4: you were, fifteen you were, sixteen you were, seventeen you
Speaker 4: were a willing. Participant, again the legal age of consent
Speaker 4: In california is, eighteen so there's no consenting for a
Speaker 4: fourteen or even a seventeen year old in these. Circumstances
Speaker 4: don't really care if it turns out that the rape
Speaker 4: charge or the sexual assault charges fall. Apart you're thirty
Speaker 4: one years old and you have sex allegedly over a
Speaker 4: three month period with a sixteen year, Old we're. Done i'm,
Speaker 4: unsubscribing all, Right AND i am sick of conservatives online
Speaker 4: trying to defend that as though she had a role in,
Speaker 4: it she was a, minor just because you can't be
Speaker 4: prosecuted for it, doesn't it's.
Speaker 1: Right the other problem with that seven year old, tape
Speaker 1: and obviously it's video resurfacing to show That megan is
Speaker 1: now trying to find excuses For epstein And trump and
Speaker 1: not doing it very well and has a screw. Loose
Speaker 1: the other the other, problem besides the total self contradiction,
Speaker 1: here is that that old video shows That Meghan kelly
Speaker 1: used to have cheeks like a normal looking woman before
Speaker 1: she did whatever she has done to herself in the
Speaker 1: interim appearance, wise you know how she has wound up
Speaker 1: looking like the lead character In Edvard munk's Painting The.
Speaker 1: Scream but that's beside the. Point the point is she's
Speaker 1: a worthless hypocrite trying to explain Away epstein the, pedophile
Speaker 1: and by, extension trying to explain Away trump the pedophile
Speaker 1: Protector Meghan. Kelly and the new online name for her
Speaker 1: is perfect and now it is Permanent MEGHAN. R, Kelly
Speaker 1: Oh today's other worst, person and No MEGHAN. R. Kelly
Speaker 1: when my Friend sue From Maltese rescue called again In
Speaker 1: august of twenty twenty, one she, SAID i have a,
Speaker 1: really really tough case this, time AND i do not
Speaker 1: think there is a chance that there could be an
Speaker 1: unexpectedly positive outcome like the one you've had With. Ted she,
Speaker 1: said this is a. Puppy he's barely three months. Old
Speaker 1: the family loves, him they adore, him but they are
Speaker 1: two young, kids and, frankly the mother believes accurately that
Speaker 1: they are just too young to watch this little dog.
Speaker 1: Die his name Was. Mishu they were A polish. Family
Speaker 1: polish for little bear Is. Mishu and the disease he
Speaker 1: had was tetrology of. Fallow that sounds at all familiar to.
Speaker 1: You in a human, child it can be repaired. Now
Speaker 1: it used to kill children by the time they were,
Speaker 1: ten but in a human child they can now do,
Speaker 1: surgery but the surgery lasts about twelve. Hours Jimmy kimmel's
Speaker 1: son had. It he talked about it a lot when
Speaker 1: he was talking about the healthcare system in this. Country in,
Speaker 1: dogs there have been some early experiments in, surgery almost
Speaker 1: exclusively for bigger. Dogs as Of mishu's, time they really
Speaker 1: had not succeeded on any dog less than, say twenty
Speaker 1: or twenty five. Pounds if you've ever seen the drawings
Speaker 1: of Mc, escher the famous illustrator where the same staircase
Speaker 1: goes up and down at the same. Time that's what
Speaker 1: a heart afflicted with tetrology of fallow looks. Like there
Speaker 1: are arteries going over the heart and under, it and
Speaker 1: others that take the oxygenated blood in the wrong. Direction
Speaker 1: the sufferer of tetrology of fellow never gets enough. Oxygen
Speaker 1: In august twenty twenty, One mishue. Arrived it's easy to
Speaker 1: romanticize things like, this especially in. Retrospect there was something
Speaker 1: magical about. Him though he was, very very. Sick his
Speaker 1: tongue and gums were purple from the lack of. Oxygen
Speaker 1: he was, tiny dwarfed by my other three, dogs and
Speaker 1: because he was three months, old and yet he would
Speaker 1: start trouble with, them silently charging ted or going up
Speaker 1: and yapping At, stevie and soon getting all three of
Speaker 1: them playing and fighting with each. Other and that's all
Speaker 1: the strength he. HAD a minute of this tops and
Speaker 1: he had to sit down and simply watch the chaos
Speaker 1: he had created and clearly loved to, create and he
Speaker 1: also clearly loved. Them if two of the dogs were
Speaker 1: lying near each other but not, together he would lie
Speaker 1: in the empty space between them, deliberately so that his
Speaker 1: head rested on one and his pack paws on or
Speaker 1: against the, Other and soon they would respond to his
Speaker 1: presence by arranging themselves and cuddling together with a space for.
Speaker 1: Him they had not done that Before michu. Came ONCE
Speaker 1: i was stretched, out legs up on my, couch and
Speaker 1: the four of them climbed, in two by my, feet
Speaker 1: two by my. KNEES i Called michhu's, name and he,
Speaker 1: turned and he looked at, me and then the four
Speaker 1: of them almost simultaneously fell. Asleep it was such a simple,
Speaker 1: thing yet easily it remains one of the most extraordinary
Speaker 1: and wonderful moments of my. Life AND i prayed that
Speaker 1: night and not for the last, time that if there
Speaker 1: was no miracle meant For, mishu that at least when
Speaker 1: he left, us he would be in my arms when he.
Speaker 1: Went mishu was an, Athlete he just was an athlete
Speaker 1: who had no. Stamina in the, Pen i'd keep him
Speaker 1: in for his own. Safety WHEN i had to go,
Speaker 1: out he would get up on his hind legs and.
Speaker 1: STAND i would come back and see him standing in his,
Speaker 1: pen or try to get out of his. Pen he
Speaker 1: did get out of his. PEN i came home and
Speaker 1: he was marching around the, house and he did that
Speaker 1: confidently around the. Place and he loved to move and
Speaker 1: to run and to, play and then he would have to.
Speaker 1: Stop mishu also enjoyed food as much as any DOG
Speaker 1: i have ever, known more even Than. MiNet he gained
Speaker 1: almost a pound a month while he was with. Me
Speaker 1: if you approached him with a, treat he would literally
Speaker 1: punch the air with one of his front, legs like an,
Speaker 1: athlete celebrating a, success often with one and then the,
Speaker 1: other a little one two punch like a. Boxer and
Speaker 1: the sheer joy of that never failed to make me
Speaker 1: smile and, laugh AND i often go back to look
Speaker 1: at the video WHEN i need to smile or. Laugh
Speaker 1: put him on his back next to, you jab a
Speaker 1: finger at his, paws and you'd be in a boxing
Speaker 1: match with a four pound puppy who exulted in doking
Speaker 1: it out with, you and you always knew when the
Speaker 1: fight was. Over misch would stop throwing hands or throwing,
Speaker 1: pause and he would simply take his front paws and
Speaker 1: grab onto your finger and. Hold he once did this
Speaker 1: for a solid. MINUTE i have never felt more as
Speaker 1: IF i were truly communicating with a dog than When
Speaker 1: mishu would hold my. Finger knowing his, ATTITUDE i really
Speaker 1: am surprised he didn't pull my. Finger he was an
Speaker 1: extraordinary happy, puppy even when he felt bad. Physically those
Speaker 1: were harrowing. Times mishu would be sitting on my, lap
Speaker 1: or walking on the, floor or just chilling with the
Speaker 1: other pupps when he would suddenly tense, up sometimes letting
Speaker 1: out a. Cry twice that cry was exactly like that
Speaker 1: of a young human. Boy it was such a startling,
Speaker 1: sound so, clear so, unmistakable so, unbelievable that the other
Speaker 1: dogs would stop and stare with what could genuine only
Speaker 1: be described as a look of. Alarm most, times the
Speaker 1: tensing was my cue to grab him and hold him
Speaker 1: as tight AS i, could because that inability to get
Speaker 1: oxygen to all the parts of his, body particularly the,
Speaker 1: brain of, course would cause his body to contract and
Speaker 1: writhe and if he was on any surface other than
Speaker 1: the ground or the, floor it could literally throw him
Speaker 1: off a couch to the floor it was, rigid and
Speaker 1: then he would, snap and then he would. Fall the
Speaker 1: first time he did, that my veterinarian was, here and she,
Speaker 1: said you may now have to take him to the emergency.
Speaker 1: Room she, said that's essentially what a dog does just
Speaker 1: before he, faints but then within seconds it would. Stop
Speaker 1: his body would relax more or. Less by, ACCIDENT i
Speaker 1: discovered that after one of these seizures he seemed to be.
Speaker 1: Soothed IF i would carry him and walk him, around
Speaker 1: gently rocking him in my arms and talking to. Him
Speaker 1: AS i did, So mishu AND i solved a lot
Speaker 1: of the world's. Problem in those little walks out in
Speaker 1: the fresh, air on the balcony or just around the.
Speaker 1: House he would often doze, off but just as often
Speaker 1: he would within minutes be ready to start playing. Again
Speaker 1: and SO i had in my little flock of four lovely,
Speaker 1: dogs a, sweet, wise, serene playful puppy who liked to
Speaker 1: grasp my finger with his paws and loved everything about,
Speaker 1: life who was wise beyond his, years and he was dying.
Speaker 1: WELL i could not not try to find out if
Speaker 1: there was something to be done to make his life
Speaker 1: longer or. Happier of, COURSE i knew what sadness this,
Speaker 1: was this extraordinary soul trapped in a body that would betray.
Speaker 1: Him at any, time but, certainly no matter when that,
Speaker 1: happened it would be before his. Time SO i had
Speaker 1: to at least try to see if something could keep
Speaker 1: him here, longer or at least make him feel. Better
Speaker 1: while he was with, us we went to see the
Speaker 1: city's top cardiologist for, dogs and there was Not although
Speaker 1: he thought keeping those cans of a minute's worth of
Speaker 1: oxygen you sometimes see football players breathing from on the,
Speaker 1: sidelines he thought that might help a little relieve the. Pain,
Speaker 1: SOON i had dozens of those cans of oxygen in
Speaker 1: a hall, closet AND i was discussing building him an oxygen.
Speaker 1: Tent but the problem wasn't his. Breathing he got all
Speaker 1: the oxygen he would normally. Need it was finding some
Speaker 1: way to get the oxygen pumped by his fatally flawed
Speaker 1: heart to carry the oxygen around his. Body it's fine
Speaker 1: if you have all the cabs in the world and
Speaker 1: there are no. Roads now there was no way to fix.
Speaker 1: This the median age of survival with dogs with TETROLOGY
Speaker 1: a fellow was just about two. Years his cardiologist brought
Speaker 1: up his case on a board of entrant national experts
Speaker 1: in canine cardiac care and they agreed there was no
Speaker 1: chance he would survive any, operation let alone the experimental
Speaker 1: surgery for this devastating. Malformation, thus the visits to the
Speaker 1: hospital turned out to be more about letting people meet
Speaker 1: him and hold. Him there was an extraordinary soothing quality
Speaker 1: to Holding. MISHU i heard it again and again from
Speaker 1: people at an animal, hospital what a special little, soul
Speaker 1: and he loved to be. HELD i took him everywhere
Speaker 1: they would let me take. Him he was a regular
Speaker 1: at my weekly physical therapy for my arthritic. Joints my
Speaker 1: therapist adored. Him she'd just hold him and tell him.
Speaker 1: Stories that took him to the apple store. ONCE i
Speaker 1: am happy to say he did not like that at.
Speaker 1: All he went with me and the other dogs for.
Speaker 1: Walks he didn't. Walk he was always in a bag
Speaker 1: draped over my. Shoulder he did not have the stamina
Speaker 1: to walk for very. LONG i never saw him fall
Speaker 1: asleep on a, walk though the world fascinated. Him the
Speaker 1: inevitable finally came at this time of year in twenty twenty.
Speaker 1: One throughout the last, week the little pre feints. Increased
Speaker 1: mishu's happiness did not. Decrease two days before the, END
Speaker 1: i approached him with a treat with my camera phone
Speaker 1: rolling he punched with the left and then he punched
Speaker 1: with the, right and he ate the, treat and he
Speaker 1: licked his purple, lips and WHEN i surprised him with
Speaker 1: a second, treat he did it all over. Again on
Speaker 1: the afternoon of the twelfth Of november twenty twenty, ONE
Speaker 1: i was Holding mishu in my lap AS i sat
Speaker 1: and looked at the peak foliage In Central. Park then
Speaker 1: with no, warning he suddenly let out that near human,
Speaker 1: cry AND i held him AND i stood up AND
Speaker 1: i walked him around the balcony, again and THEN i
Speaker 1: had to sit him down in his pen for a,
Speaker 1: second AND i was just picking him back up when
Speaker 1: he tensed, up just like all the other, times and. Died.
Speaker 1: Died AS i picked him back, up the special little
Speaker 1: soul was. Gone his body was getting cold with stunning,
Speaker 1: rapidity and something inside me calmly, said, hmm not. YET
Speaker 1: i just don't think he's. Ready and with no training
Speaker 1: and absolutely no clue WHAT i was, DOING i TRIED
Speaker 1: cpr on. Him you have to, try you have to.
Speaker 1: TRY i had so little idea what on EARTH i
Speaker 1: was doing that after breathing air in and out of
Speaker 1: his lifeless, BODY i moved my face away as IF
Speaker 1: i were going to spit out, water before reminding, myself, no,
Speaker 1: dummy that would be for. Drowning he didn't. Drown he
Speaker 1: had a stroke or a heart. ATTACK i must have
Speaker 1: done five or six, breaths and was, thinking how long
Speaker 1: DO i do this BEFORE i say? Goodbye WHEN i
Speaker 1: heard him, EXHALE i waited for it to, stop or
Speaker 1: to be a false, alarm or SOME i don't, know
Speaker 1: some sort of physical oddity caused by all the AIR
Speaker 1: i had pushed into his. Lungs but it wasn't any of. That,
Speaker 1: damned if this little dog had not somehow taught me
Speaker 1: how to resuscitate, him he was. Alive then he was
Speaker 1: dead and getting. Cold now he was alive, again with
Speaker 1: a regular breath and for, him a regular. Heartbeat it
Speaker 1: was rush hour On friday, afternoon and there was a
Speaker 1: bottleneck and a bridge approach Between mishu AND i and the,
Speaker 1: hospital AND i had visions of being stuck in traffic
Speaker 1: for half an hour or an hour or lord knows how,
Speaker 1: long and almost nothing they could do for. Him, then
Speaker 1: if we somehow got, there in, time but you have to.
Speaker 1: Try if he did teach me that, lesson then mine
Speaker 1: told me that, lesson you have to. TRY i loaded
Speaker 1: a bag full of those cans of oxygen AND i
Speaker 1: got in the, car and the driver realized my, distress
Speaker 1: and he asked what he could do to, help AND i, said,
Speaker 1: listen don't run any, lights but if somebody wants to
Speaker 1: duck in in front of you in, traffic don't let.
Speaker 1: Them don't stop unless you have. To and when you do,
Speaker 1: stop help me unwrap the plastic from these oxygen. Cans
Speaker 1: they are what are keeping him. Alive and very calmly
Speaker 1: he did, that AND i kept blowing the oxygen Into
Speaker 1: mishu's mouth and, nose and we made it there in eleven,
Speaker 1: minutes faster than the record Time i'd ever made it
Speaker 1: to the. Hospital the streets literally parted For. Mishue at the, hospital,
Speaker 1: SOMEHOW i handed him off to the emergency room, doctor
Speaker 1: saying with an EVENNESS i could not BELIEVE i could.
Speaker 1: Muster my dog is. Dying he has, tetrology a, fellow
Speaker 1: and then they rushed him, off and THEN i briefed
Speaker 1: a second doctor on, everything including the human like cry
Speaker 1: From mishu and his, resuscitation AND i told her he
Speaker 1: had been seen by a cardiologist there and told her which,
Speaker 1: one and she, said he's still. HERE i just saw.
Speaker 1: Him i'll get. Him so Now mishu was being worked
Speaker 1: on by one of the leading experts in canine cardiology
Speaker 1: in the, world and yet SO i knew there was
Speaker 1: no hope as they examined. HIM i managed to Text
Speaker 1: sue from The maltese rescue and she came to the hospital,
Speaker 1: too and three of the people from other departments in
Speaker 1: the hospital who had Met mishu came down to the emergency,
Speaker 1: room not for my sake but for. His it was
Speaker 1: heartbreaking and yet uplifting at the same. Time one of
Speaker 1: the er doctors, SAID i think we should let him,
Speaker 1: go AND i, said not in, anger not in, competition
Speaker 1: and certainly not. BOASTING i, said, LOOK i understand. That
Speaker 1: i'd just like to, note with no, TRAINING i just
Speaker 1: brought him back from the. DEAD i suspect you guys
Speaker 1: are way better at this THAN i. Am AND i
Speaker 1: brought him somehow back from he was getting called just
Speaker 1: give him half an, hour and they all looked at
Speaker 1: me and said. Yes about half an hour, later his,
Speaker 1: doctor the, cardiologist came out to me and he, said he's,
Speaker 1: alive but if you took him out of this, hospital
Speaker 1: you'd get as far as the parking garage and then
Speaker 1: you'd have to bring him. Back what you heard when
Speaker 1: he cried, out that was him having a. Stroke the
Speaker 1: oxygen deprivation was finally too, much and the doctor began
Speaker 1: to prepare me for the question about letting him, go
Speaker 1: AND i stopped him AND i, SAID i know we've
Speaker 1: all done everything we, can especially, him SPECIALLY mishu ready
Speaker 1: when you. Are and they brought him back to, me
Speaker 1: and there was a drip attached to his, arm and
Speaker 1: when that toggle on the drip was be, thrown the
Speaker 1: medication in the container would end his. Life he was
Speaker 1: as warm and as soft as ever in my, arms
Speaker 1: and YET i knew he was no longer in. There
Speaker 1: sue held him for a, while and then she left
Speaker 1: me alone with. HIM i said what you would expect
Speaker 1: somebody to say in such a, circumstance about love and,
Speaker 1: happiness and THEN i heard myself saying things about, gratitude
Speaker 1: gratitude to him for teaching me that in the face of,
Speaker 1: death the point is to know when to try and
Speaker 1: when to say. Enough and then he had taught me
Speaker 1: how to confront death and crisis and, urgency but with
Speaker 1: evenness and, practicality and to be able to, SAY i
Speaker 1: know you had a happy. Life then it seems like,
Speaker 1: that and not the fact that you had a happy
Speaker 1: life but tragically not a long. One it seemed like
Speaker 1: the happy life was all that mattered to. You this
Speaker 1: cardiologist and the nurse came back into the, room AND i,
Speaker 1: SAID i was, Ready and as the toggle was, TURNED i,
Speaker 1: SAID i knew that if there was a place for
Speaker 1: him to go, NOW i was confident he would be
Speaker 1: the first one they let. In AND i just hoped
Speaker 1: they'd let me visit him there, someday and THAT i
Speaker 1: hoped he would remember. US i, said good, night sweet
Speaker 1: prints and flights of angels sing thee to thy, rest
Speaker 1: and he was gone. Again and AS i had prayed
Speaker 1: when he, died he died in my. Arms he died
Speaker 1: in my arms. Twice there are some postscripts new since
Speaker 1: the first TIME i told you his. Story his cardiologists
Speaker 1: very solemnly and respectfully said that of those other international
Speaker 1: experts who had Reviewed mishu's, case only two out of
Speaker 1: a couple of dozen of them had actually ever seen
Speaker 1: and been able to study a small dog with TETROLOGY a,
Speaker 1: fellow And mishu might have one final blessing yet to
Speaker 1: bestow upon the rest of, us if they could keep
Speaker 1: and study his poor little. Heart and without, HESITATION i said,
Speaker 1: yes because in that INSTANT i saw him positioning his
Speaker 1: head On stevie's head and his back paws On rose's back,
Speaker 1: legs so that the three of them were cuddling, together
Speaker 1: whether they liked it or, not AND i, knew AS
Speaker 1: i had always, known that this truly was a dog
Speaker 1: who cared about other. Dogs the hospital wound up recalibrating
Speaker 1: some of the cameras they had in the hospital to
Speaker 1: photograph the smallest teeth in the smallest, dogs so they
Speaker 1: could get every imaginable image Of mishu's heart and maybe
Speaker 1: someday use them to fix this nightmare in some other.
Speaker 1: Dog and since SOMETIME i think in twenty twenty, Two
Speaker 1: mishu has been in the veterinary. Textbooks, moreover in a
Speaker 1: casual conversation with someone from that cardiology department at the
Speaker 1: animal hospital over the, summer he Mentioned. Mishu he recognized
Speaker 1: my name because Of, Mishu and we talked about this
Speaker 1: awful disease tetrology of, fellow and he said they had
Speaker 1: just months earlier in that hospital finally been able to
Speaker 1: successfully complete a surgery on a small dog who had
Speaker 1: that same fateful construction that Took meshu so. Young IF
Speaker 1: i remember what he told me, correctly they built this
Speaker 1: little dog a new. Aorta, Now i'm not crazy or
Speaker 1: arrogant enough to draw a straight line from letting them
Speaker 1: keep me shoes heart to that successful, surgery BUT i
Speaker 1: have no doubt that his heart continued the advance of
Speaker 1: knowledge of what science can do for cardiac patients and
Speaker 1: not just canine cardiac. Patients WHEN i first Got, stevie
Speaker 1: the fellow who literally handed her to me at the
Speaker 1: pet shop was Named. Jeffrey about seven years, LATER i
Speaker 1: Saw jeffrey, again same, shop and he said he had
Speaker 1: just gone back to work after months off out sick
Speaker 1: after heart. Surgery and he said they did some experimental
Speaker 1: stuff on, me and then he, laughed stuff they had
Speaker 1: tried out first on. Dogs isn't that? Amazing, well that's
Speaker 1: always the. Case you don't wait to see if the drugs.
Speaker 1: Work on dogs because their lives are so short, anyway
Speaker 1: and you don't wait to do the surgery because their
Speaker 1: lives are so short, anyway and so you find new
Speaker 1: ways for dogs and for. HUMANS i like to Think
Speaker 1: mishu will save other, dogs help save that one that
Speaker 1: the cardiologist, mentioned and save other kids. Too, Secondly mishu's
Speaker 1: parents had another litter late in the same year that he,
Speaker 1: died and their human was kind enough to offer me
Speaker 1: either of the Brothers mishu would never. Know each was
Speaker 1: eerily reminiscent of, him but, healthy so healthy that they
Speaker 1: were little. Devils there's no other way to describe. Them sweet.
Speaker 1: Innocent Little mishu was in some way sweet and innocent
Speaker 1: because he didn't have the strength to be a little
Speaker 1: devil like his brothers. Were they were menaces to my
Speaker 1: other three. DOGS i had each of them live a
Speaker 1: week with, us AND i would have been fine with
Speaker 1: Each they were great just with. Me but each of
Speaker 1: them bit ted in the, genitals and Then stevie in the,
Speaker 1: genitals And rose in the, genitals and one of them
Speaker 1: bit me in the. Genitals you got to draw a line.
Speaker 1: Somewhere they were. Crazy and the second, one REMEMBER i
Speaker 1: mentioned How misheu used to stand in his. Pen the second, One,
Speaker 1: snowy got into that same pen and managed to climb
Speaker 1: up the side of it and down the outside of
