1
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

2
00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:18,320
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong.

3
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:26,080
Speaker 2: And Joe Katty Armstrong and Jackie and he Armsrong get

4
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:36,519
Speaker 2: it from the studio seat. See it's a dimly lit room.

5
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 2: You don't where and take with the bowels the.

6
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:42,159
Speaker 1: Bowels, i'd say, of the Armstrong and getting communications compound.

7
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 2: And today we are under the Tutela job. Our general

8
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 2: manager still Stobbald J. Trump commander in chief by God,

9
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:51,199
Speaker 2: shaking it up.

10
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, how about today we could focus on the immigration angle,

11
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,279
Speaker 1: which is one of the two biggest issues. He got

12
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 1: elected on the immigration thing. As the ice officers are

13
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 1: out there targeting violent offenders about four hundred people who

14
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: have been arresto already who had horrible criminal records that

15
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,120
Speaker 1: were in our country, and the fact that they arrested

16
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: him within like you know, two days of a new

17
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 1: presidency means they knew who they were and where they

18
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:18,319
Speaker 1: were right and.

19
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:20,919
Speaker 3: The fact that they had been left to do whatever

20
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 3: they wanted and stay in the country until now boggles

21
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 3: the mind.

22
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,679
Speaker 1: It really does, it really does. They had been identified

23
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,039
Speaker 1: by the Justice Department. People knew exactly what sort of

24
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: horrible things these people had done, and because of a

25
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:38,479
Speaker 1: variety of ridiculous policies at the federal, state, and city level,

26
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 1: they were just.

27
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 2: Hanging out waiting to commit their next crimes.

28
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:44,479
Speaker 1: And then you got the Lake and Riley Act, which

29
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 1: passed the House easily by over one hundred votes with

30
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 1: a forty six Democrats voting on it. That's the act

31
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: that makes it easier for federal officials to detain and

32
00:01:54,560 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 1: deport illegals who are charged with crimes. And prior to this,

33
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 1: you know that would that gets around the sanctuary city right,

34
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 1: because sanctuary city thing, because it's a it's a federal law.

35
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 1: So in theory, the state of California or Los Angeles

36
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 1: County or whoever can't just ignore that.

37
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 2: In theory. We'll see. Yeah, that is going to be

38
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 2: worked out at length.

39
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 3: The question of can the federal government compel in any

40
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 3: way a local employee to do their bidding. That's going

41
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 3: to be knocking around the courts for a long time,

42
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 3: but it ought to be decided. It's about time.

43
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,079
Speaker 1: Well, we know our public opinion is New York Times

44
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 1: poll over the weekend, eighty five percent of Americans want

45
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 1: illegals with criminal backgrounds out.

46
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 2: In the other fifteen percent of I want to deport you.

47
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 2: Are you insane? How does the world look to you?

48
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 2: Because what sort of system?

49
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 3: You need to explain your system top to bottom for me,

50
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 3: because I'm fascinating.

51
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 1: I agreed to port them. I don't care if they're

52
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 1: sixteen generation may Flower Americans.

53
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 2: They need to go, yeah place who cares? Give where?

54
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 2: My side don't care.

55
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,080
Speaker 1: The other border thing, fifteen hundred troops headed to the border,

56
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:13,239
Speaker 1: and some marine was on the talk shows yesterday saying

57
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 1: there might be as many as ten thousand soon doing

58
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 1: a variety of different jobs. I don't know if you

59
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: saw the pictures of the detention centers Mexico's building on

60
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 1: the other side of the border, because they realized the

61
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 1: jig is up and these people got to go somewhere.

62
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: So they're trying to figure out where they're gonna put

63
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 1: everybody since they're not going to be crossing anymore. Keeping

64
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 1: in mind that eight million people crossed illegally during the

65
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 1: Biden administration. Eight million people, as Bob Woodward said in

66
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 1: his book Bob Freaking Woodward said, the greatest non war

67
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: migration of humans in world history. In the history of

68
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 1: the planet happened because of our stupid, stupid policies, utterly

69
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 1: lawless for years and years in year, and shockingly so,

70
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 1: so we've been discussing, and thank goodness, Trump, among other things,

71
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 1: doesn't care if some fringe of activists says this.

72
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 3: Is racist against Hispanics or something. It's an idiotic argument,

73
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 3: but the bulk of the political world at least listens

74
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 3: to that and thinks, hmm, I wonder how much influence

75
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 3: and sway they have. I wonder if they would cost

76
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 3: me votes and contributions. Trump's like, I don't care, be quiet,

77
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 3: which is great. Now here's the problem with Trump, and

78
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 3: there are a couple of stories like this. It's I

79
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 3: finally came up with the correct metaphor. It's as if

80
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 3: he's in the Oval Office unleashing these great executive vill

81
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 3: orders and urging Congress to pass fantastic laws and returning

82
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,360
Speaker 3: so many policies back to sanity, and as he's doing that,

83
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 3: he's just like casually sliding landmines around the Oval Office

84
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 3: and saying, Oh, don't worry, I won't step on him.

85
00:04:58,880 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 2: Because that's Trump's thing.

86
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 3: He creates his own land minds for the you know

87
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 3: the other people who exploit. And some of you are like,

88
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,040
Speaker 3: why are you guys focusing on some of the negative

89
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 3: stuff with Trump? He's doing so many good things. It's

90
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,359
Speaker 3: because I could I've seen this movie before. The only

91
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,160
Speaker 3: way that great stuff ends is if he steps on

92
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 3: one of his own land mines.

93
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 2: The Left can't take him.

94
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 3: That was like Lincoln used to say about the country

95
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 3: will never be taken over by some external force. If

96
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 3: we are to fall apart, it'll be of our own making.

97
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 2: Yeah.

98
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:34,160
Speaker 1: I like this border immigration stuff though, so yeah, can

99
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 1: you explain to me? I meant to read the article yesterday.

100
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: We're big fans of the Dispatch around here, and they

101
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 1: put out a piece on why we need to continue

102
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: birthright citizenship, and I didn't get around reading it.

103
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 2: I wanted to hear the argument, and.

104
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 1: I was asking, I've been asking for the last couple

105
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 1: of days, what's the argument for continuing it? Because I

106
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 1: hadn't heard one yet, but there must be one or several,

107
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: and I'd like to know.

108
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 3: The only one that's really leapt to my mind is

109
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:11,799
Speaker 3: that if you if you have a smart, orderly immigration system,

110
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 3: and it takes a while for those people to become citizens.

111
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 3: But they're here to stay to become Americans. Their kids

112
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 3: ought to be Americans. There shouldn't be a long administrative

113
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 3: process that their kids become Americans. But how do you

114
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:31,840
Speaker 3: deal with the whole citizenship tourism thing that's popular.

115
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 2: Particularly among the rich in Asia.

116
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: You know, you're going to have a baby, see a

117
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 1: fly the United States and stay in a hotel or

118
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:39,280
Speaker 1: whatever you do, and have your kid born at a

119
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 1: hospital here so you can they're a citizen.

120
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 2: Why don't we What are we supposed to do? Put

121
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,040
Speaker 2: a pin in it now? Or park the car? Parks

122
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 2: a car? Yeah?

123
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 1: Have you heard any might say that? Hanson, Well, of course,

124
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 1: we don't ever go to meetings either. How would we

125
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 1: hear the lingo of meetings when we don't ever have

126
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: to go to meetings? Thank god, thank god.

127
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 3: It's one of the greatest developments of our long career.

128
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 3: I said, we're at the point that I don't want

129
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 3: to I hate.

130
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,279
Speaker 1: To even say this out loud because some of you

131
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 1: will flip off the radio because you go to like

132
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 1: five meetings a day.

133
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 2: I think I go to three meetings a year. Yeah,

134
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 2: and those are ones we want to go to. Yes, Hanson.

135
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 1: Now, somebody threw a sales term at me yesterday that

136
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 1: I'd never heard before, and I actually had to say, uh.

137
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:24,679
Speaker 2: No, I wasn't aware of that, And I gotta admit,

138
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 2: I don't know what that means. What was it? I

139
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 2: don't even know some some weird combination. Let's park the car.

140
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 1: So let's let's park the car and we'll come back

141
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 1: to that, see if we can figure out what it was.

142
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 3: Yes, Joe, excellent, that's not a great metaphor. I don't

143
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 3: park that, okay, I mean, how's that worse than put

144
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 3: a pin in it? Well, it's there's no car.

145
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 2: We haven't there's no pan. No, we're we're marking something

146
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 2: we want to return to.

147
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 3: But a car is a bad This discussion did not

148
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 3: get us here. It's just something we want to come

149
00:07:58,720 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 3: back to.

150
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 2: Get I kind of get it.

151
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 1: Let's quit driving around the parking lot or driving around.

152
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 1: Let's stop, let's park the car.

153
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 2: Okay, let's all right.

154
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 3: I don't know what is it with you people in sales.

155
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 3: Can I just say let's talk about this later when

156
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 3: we have more time.

157
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 2: Get out of here. He's not management material. You have

158
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 2: read none of the hot books about bisiness vanishments.

159
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 1: You don't know how tight your suit jacket is supposed

160
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 1: to be now or not, or how how your pants

161
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 1: are supposed to be. You're not in step with what

162
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:40,080
Speaker 1: everybody's doing. How do you sales marketing people know what

163
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:40,320
Speaker 1: the hot?

164
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 2: Well?

165
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 1: First of all, why do you need to have a

166
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: hot phrase to signify you're the cool people?

167
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 2: Oh?

168
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 3: Same reasons and teenagers do. The process is exactly the same.

169
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 3: If you're not up on the hip lingo, that's why

170
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,080
Speaker 3: it's important to be up on it right.

171
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: Social cachet exactly exactly that. And the coffee munk. You

172
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,200
Speaker 1: gotta have the right coffee munk. A Stanley mug now,

173
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 1: Oh my god, you are so lame. It moved on

174
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 1: to something else by Really, how does mailbag look? I

175
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: spent seven hundred dollars on seven hundred dollars.

176
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:12,440
Speaker 3: We got to start the show out every color to

177
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 3: match my ties.

178
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 2: Yes, Katie, Oh, she's got her Stanley book.

179
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 4: And now I'm just sitting here drinking out of my Stanley.

180
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 2: That's all.

181
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 1: You know what I like about it? It holds liquids

182
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: and you can drink out of it. That's the best

183
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 1: part of it. You're an embarrassment, Katie. I'll get you

184
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 1: with your yesterday's big dumb cup. I'm Jack Armstrong, He's

185
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 1: Joe Getty on this It is Thursday, January twenty third,

186
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:35,199
Speaker 1: the year twenty twenty five.

187
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,599
Speaker 2: We are armstrong in getting we approve of this program.

188
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 3: Let's begin officially then, according to SCC rules and regulations,

189
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 3: the show begins at Mark.

190
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 5: This is not Fox, Congressman, you can't just spin a

191
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,200
Speaker 5: tail and pull the wool out of people's eyes.

192
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,680
Speaker 2: Now, this is CNN. This is the news. We're asking

193
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 2: that's out and tell the truth.

194
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 5: And that's why more people are watching the cartoon network

195
00:09:56,240 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 5: SpongeBob reruns right now, Jim.

196
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 3: That was beautiful. That was Congressman. Don't tell me it's

197
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 3: here somewhere.

198
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 2: CNN once again clowning themselves.

199
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, what a great comeback. Well it was the congressman's name.

200
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 3: I want to give him credit.

201
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,199
Speaker 1: For instance that sort of thing. Axios's headline and I'm

202
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: looking up at the Twitter Axios's headline today. America doesn't

203
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:29,319
Speaker 1: have a king, but we're dancing close to Kinglake Power. Okay,

204
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:34,079
Speaker 1: be afraid, be very afraid. How does mail bag look? Seriously,

205
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,679
Speaker 1: does this effing thing work? What's the name of the congressman?

206
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:40,560
Speaker 4: I don't uh, Representative timber Chet from Tennessee.

207
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 2: Thank you well done. How does mail bag look? Oh?

208
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 2: It's terrific.

209
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 3: It's as if Cicero, Lincoln, and Moses himself had come

210
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 3: together to craft the feature.

211
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 1: I don't even think you're concerned that we're dancing close

212
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 1: to king like powers. You just don't even seem to

213
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 1: be bothered by that. Our text line is four one

214
00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:05,440
Speaker 1: five two nine five KFTC. Some great headlines from various

215
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 1: publications around the country around the immigration thing. They continue

216
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 1: to find the most heart tugging examples in the world

217
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 1: and portray them. You know, the one woman we had

218
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 1: yesterday who was in Mexico crying because she was about

219
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 1: to get across and now she's not, and she'd crying.

220
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:23,880
Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, Well that's what.

221
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 1: Happens after four years of telling the entire Southern hemisphere

222
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 1: that anybody could come here, and then it's going to

223
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: stop at some point. No, people didn't get in are

224
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 1: gonna be unhappy? What am I supposed to do about it?

225
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 2: Right? Right? Agreed much more to come on that topic

226
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 2: in others.

227
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 3: Here's your freedom loving quote of the day. We often know,

228
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 3: oh it's from I don't know this person, and I

229
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 3: just like the quote. Punit isar And if they are

230
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:54,680
Speaker 3: some sort of monster of history that I'm not aware of,

231
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 3: I apologize for quoting them. But we often know only

232
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,440
Speaker 3: one version of the story, the version for trade by

233
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 3: the person who wins a war and lives to tell

234
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 3: the tale, and the one who loses the war is

235
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 3: always remembered as the antagonist, making the victor the protagonist.

236
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:08,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

237
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 1: It's one of the things that bothers me about reading

238
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 1: history is that, to a certain extent, there's no such

239
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 1: thing as accurate, perfectly accurate history, especially the further you

240
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,440
Speaker 1: go back, right.

241
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 3: I mean, there are plenty of examples of quote unquote

242
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:32,320
Speaker 3: fair you know, chroniclers of what happened, But much more

243
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 3: often anybody who would have expressed the point of view

244
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,320
Speaker 3: B is just gone yeah exactly, or in a prison

245
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 3: or something and doesn't get to speak. Mailbag drop us

246
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 3: note Mailbag at Armstrong and Getty dot com. I'm going

247
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 3: to read this just because I appreciate Roberts taking the

248
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 3: time to craft a joke that sounds as if it

249
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 3: was taken from the pages of a joke book for

250
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 3: eight year olds written in nineteen seventy six. We're discussing

251
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 3: the Artinian Museum of Men's Suits, which has been closed

252
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 3: down one of many cost cutting measures by Javier Milay.

253
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 3: They're great new President, Robert says. Fun fact, the hall

254
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 3: of suits.

255
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, the.

256
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 3: Suit museums all of zippers was always open, even right

257
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 3: after it was closed.

258
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:27,680
Speaker 2: Wow, wow, thanks for taking this. You can have a

259
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 2: museum like I screwed it up.

260
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:31,080
Speaker 1: But usually when you have a weirdo museum like that

261
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,800
Speaker 1: in the United States, it's privately funded. It's not tax trainers,

262
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,200
Speaker 1: and that's the problem. It was like like the government

263
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:37,840
Speaker 1: had a museum of suits.

264
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, good gracious. Let's see.

265
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 3: This is Mike from northern Minnesota. He says, guys, I

266
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,680
Speaker 3: have a similar story the one Joe told last week.

267
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:51,079
Speaker 3: I did about dropping my iPhone in my dog's pooh

268
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 3: as I was trying to pick it up. Right, Mike,

269
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 3: several years ago, I placed my thirty caliber semi automatic

270
00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 3: pistol in my pocket while I was doing my stand

271
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 3: up business. I think he means urinating when I bent

272
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 3: over to retrieve my gloves, said pistol fell out of

273
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 3: my pocket, landed on the hammer, sending the bullet into

274
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 3: my right butt cheek. Oh my god, the whole story

275
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 3: is too long for mailback.

276
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:20,040
Speaker 2: Oh my god. Wow. Wow, Hey Mike, when's your birthday?

277
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 2: I'm gonna buy you a holster.

278
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 1: My first thought if that happened to me would be,

279
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 1: h I'm really lucky to be alive.

280
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

281
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 3: Number two, I gotta get a gun that's less sensitive

282
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 3: to being dropped.

283
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 2: But anyway, let's see.

284
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 3: Jay from San Jose writes Trump has just executive ordered

285
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 3: a battlefield strategy that covers so many fronts that Democrats

286
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 3: seem bewildered and scattered. No one is leading their party,

287
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 3: and Trump is going to walk through them because on

288
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 3: several different important issues, he knows some dams must vote

289
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 3: with him if they hope to get re elected, or

290
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 3: just for common sense, overwhelm and overtake.

291
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 1: Dang it. I came across a term yesterday. I meant

292
00:14:58,720 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 1: to write it down. I didn't know what I was.

293
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 1: I never did debate in my life. I guess it's

294
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 1: a debating term. You throw so many things at your

295
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,240
Speaker 1: opponent they can't respond to all of them and that

296
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 1: right kind of what Trump is doing. There's just no

297
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 1: way to respond to all the things he's doing. Yeah,

298
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 1: I think you and jayf Sanjo's air exactly right. Let's

299
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 1: see on the topic of people not having.

300
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 3: Sex anymore again, If this was the giraffe or the

301
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,480
Speaker 3: will to beast or something, every biologist in the world

302
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 3: would be shouting about how important and dangerous this is.

303
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,240
Speaker 3: But people not having sex is another way of saying

304
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 3: not reproducing rights, Arnie. Think about animal populations in the wild.

305
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 3: When there are too many for the available area, they

306
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 3: naturally reduce the rate of reproduction. Could that be what

307
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 3: is happening to us humans? Perhaps there is enough food

308
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 3: available but not enough space. I'm just saying, Arnie, I

309
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 3: have always responded in the same way to this theory.

310
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 3: Drive from Kansas City, Missouri to Sacramento, California, and then

311
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 3: tell me there's not enough room for the people. You

312
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 3: will not see another living soul for twelve hundred miles.

313
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 1: Well ever, since I was about eleven, I understand the

314
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 1: relationship between sex and having children, but I didn't think

315
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 1: they'd be tied together like this if people decided not

316
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 1: to have kids. I didn't think they'd stop having sex,

317
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 1: very pleasurable experience. It doesn't need to result in a child.

318
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 1: I mean, in the modern world of birth control, you

319
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 1: don't have to have stop having sex.

320
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 3: So people just losing the desire to have sex is unbelievable.

321
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 3: Charles points out to dating these days is much more

322
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 3: fraught with potentially dire consequences than in any previous decade

323
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 3: I've ever experienced, especially for men, legal consequences, civil lawsuits,

324
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 3: claims of rape, whatever. Yeah, I don't know. I think

325
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 3: there are many factors and they've come together.

326
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I never did online dating, but I know a

327
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 1: lot of people that did for years and they've soured

328
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 1: on it because of bad experiences.

329
00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 2: And I wonder if people don't know.

330
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 1: How to or don't want to go back to the

331
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:56,440
Speaker 1: old way, so you go from online dating it didn't work,

332
00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: you just stop.

333
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 3: Or let's face it, the young are the kings and

334
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 3: queens of hooking up right, getting it on the beast

335
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 3: with two.

336
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:05,120
Speaker 2: Bags, et cetera.

337
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 1: Not necessarily according to that pole, but right exactly.

338
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:12,639
Speaker 3: And they're not like capable of meeting people and enduring

339
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:14,880
Speaker 3: the stress and the rejections.

340
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 1: So you know, its true if you can't call a

341
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 1: pizza place to order a pizza. You're not gonna ask

342
00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:22,680
Speaker 1: somebody out on a date, Armstrong and Getty.

343
00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 6: This hasn't happened in seventy years. A blanket of snow

344
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 6: covered the beach the Florida Panhandle. There were snow from

345
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 6: Tallahassee to Pensacola. Children were voluntarily being swallowed by alligators

346
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:35,840
Speaker 6: just to stay warmed.

347
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 2: Hioh.

348
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 1: We'll talk more about what's going on immigration wise now

349
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 1: that Trump has hit the ground running around immigration and

350
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,439
Speaker 1: everything like that in hour two.

351
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,880
Speaker 2: But here's one of my favorite things. It's getting attention.

352
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 1: The president's reversal on sensitive locations that free agents are

353
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 1: not allowed to go into has been done away with,

354
00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 1: like churches, schools, hospitals, colleges, funerals, and rallies. You're going

355
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 1: to show up at a funeral and arrest people. That's wow, Ah,

356
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 1: that's aggressive.

357
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 2: That would be a little insensitive.

358
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 1: I suppose now you stand there for a second, say,

359
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 1: and they seemed like a nice person.

360
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 2: Anyway, come with me. Yeah, yeah, they'll be missed, and

361
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,280
Speaker 2: so will you because you're leaving the country.

362
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 3: I all, uh, yeah, yeah, I get I get some

363
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 3: of those locations, but it's it's got end. We've gone way, way, way,

364
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 3: way too far in the other direction, and everyone knows it.

365
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 2: More on the immigration situation.

366
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 3: There's a lot to report today in a little bit,

367
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,719
Speaker 3: but I thought this was so interesting. One of the

368
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 3: things that the Trump administration is going to roll back

369
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:46,720
Speaker 3: completely is the and this is editorializing, I know, the

370
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:52,440
Speaker 3: completely phony, ridiculous, expensive subsidies for pie in the sky

371
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 3: green energy stuff and or trying to well, it's not

372
00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:00,040
Speaker 3: even that trying to reduce climate change, is what I

373
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 3: going to say. But as we all know, so many

374
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,880
Speaker 3: of these measures are just purely symbolic. I mean, they'll

375
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:11,200
Speaker 3: have no significant, you know, effect whatsoever, unless China and

376
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 3: India all of a sudden stop existing and then, you know,

377
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,439
Speaker 3: maybe we could lower the temperatures by about a fourth

378
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,920
Speaker 3: of a degree in one hundred years. Anyway, I thought

379
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:24,199
Speaker 3: this was so interesting. This is actually from the New

380
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 3: York Post, but it's headline kind of tells the story.

381
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 3: Climate change fanatics want to bankrupt the entire world for

382
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 3: little to no reward, and they've quantified a lot of

383
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 3: the costs and benefits of the things that have been

384
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:46,680
Speaker 3: proposed and again, this is probably the greatest example I've

385
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 3: ever seen of something needs to be done. This is something,

386
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 3: so this needs to be done around climate change. So

387
00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:00,960
Speaker 3: across the world, public finances stretch dangerously thin per person

388
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 3: growth continues dropping while costs for aging populations grow. These

389
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,680
Speaker 3: urgent priorities could easily require an additional three to six

390
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 3: percent of GDP. Yet green campaigners are loudly calling for

391
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,880
Speaker 3: governments to spend up to twenty five percent of our

392
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:20,959
Speaker 3: GDP on climate change. If climate armageddon were imminent, they

393
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 3: would have a point, but the truth is far more prosaic.

394
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 3: Two major new scientific estimates of the total global cost

395
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,880
Speaker 3: of climate change have been published recently. And these are

396
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:36,439
Speaker 3: not individual studies which can vary greatly. These are These

397
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 3: are meta studies based on the entirety of peer reviewed literature.

398
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,399
Speaker 3: It's a study of studies, and the people behind them

399
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:49,119
Speaker 3: are Nobel Prize winners and often cited that sort of thing. Anyway,

400
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 3: the studies suggests that a three degree celsius temperature increase

401
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,520
Speaker 3: by the end of the century, which is pretty pessimistic.

402
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:59,000
Speaker 3: That's a big increase a lot. Oh yeah, yeah, that's

403
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 3: more than they're talking about. But they went with that

404
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:03,440
Speaker 3: for some reason because it made the figures easier. I

405
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 3: don't know, but we'll have a global cost equivalent to

406
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 3: between two and three percent of global GDP. It will

407
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:14,480
Speaker 3: be a two to three percent hit while global.

408
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 1: GDP, and I don't even need to know to be

409
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:21,440
Speaker 1: certain that the proposals that are out there for trying

410
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 1: to stop that from happening are many multiples of that.

411
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, ruin the punchline, Yeah, of course. Yeah.

412
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 3: To put this into context, the United Nations estimates with it,

413
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 3: by the end of the century, the average person, because

414
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,160
Speaker 3: standards of living have been rising now for one hundred

415
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 3: and seventy five years and continue to the average person

416
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 3: will be four hundred and fifty percent.

417
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:43,919
Speaker 2: As rich as he or she is today.

418
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:49,119
Speaker 3: Because of climate change, they will feel only four hundred

419
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 3: and thirty five to four hundred and forty percent as

420
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:55,919
Speaker 3: rich as they are today. Now, why is that so

421
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 3: different from the word we get from the media constantly?

422
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,399
Speaker 3: A lot armists and credulous journalists fail to account for

423
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,560
Speaker 3: the simple fact that people are remarkably adaptable and tackle

424
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:10,680
Speaker 3: most climate problems at low cost. The idea that gets

425
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:12,640
Speaker 3: foistered or thrown at us over and over again.

426
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,679
Speaker 2: Is that we will just except.

427
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 3: We'll like passively like sheep, except the changing climate and

428
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 3: do nothing about it. We will not adjust. We'll just

429
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 3: sit here and be drowned. We'll just well, the water's

430
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 3: up to our navels will say oh, and the water's

431
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 3: up to our nipples will say, oh, it's too bad.

432
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 3: And as the water covers our nostrils will simply drown.

433
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 1: Well, there's only so much water, so if it rises somewhere,

434
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:38,480
Speaker 1: it's got to go down somewhere else.

435
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:42,399
Speaker 2: We're not going to make new water. So isn't that true?

436
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:43,480
Speaker 2: I mean, it's.

437
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 3: They talk about the the all the ice on earth.

438
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:50,840
Speaker 1: Oh, gotcha, melting, gotcha. But like for the whole temperature thing,

439
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:53,680
Speaker 1: I'm from really cold parts.

440
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 2: Of the country.

441
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 1: It's not as miserable now as it was when I

442
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,400
Speaker 1: was a kid. Now Florida is gonna have to buy

443
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,520
Speaker 1: some of Kansas's snowplows because Kansas doesn't need him anymore

444
00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 1: and Florida does.

445
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:06,359
Speaker 2: For the first time. But whatever gonna do.

446
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 3: Right, Like I said, they're gonna be waving fields of

447
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:17,159
Speaker 3: corn in the Yukon. Anyway, Let's talk about food climates.

448
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 3: Nuts insist that will starve. But research shows that instead

449
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:25,199
Speaker 3: of a fifty one percent increase in food availability by

450
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 3: the year twenty one hundred, if there were no climate change,

451
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:31,200
Speaker 3: we're on track for only a forty nine percent increase,

452
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 3: so dropping two percent. Weather disasters killed half a million

453
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 3: people annually in the nineteen twenties, whereas the last decades

454
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 3: saw fewer than nine thousand fatalities each year, ninety seven

455
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,680
Speaker 3: and a half percent reduction mortality because people are more resilient,

456
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,840
Speaker 3: were richer, and can access better technology.

457
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 1: You know, I have made it very clear over the years,

458
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,600
Speaker 1: I have never looked into this story for some reason,

459
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 1: So I don't, you know, have a lot of facts

460
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 1: and figures at my fingertips. Be So what's the end

461
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,760
Speaker 1: of the sentence when people talk about climate chang by

462
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:05,400
Speaker 1: the end of the century, it's going to be three

463
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:06,679
Speaker 1: degrees warmer or whatever.

464
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 2: And what will happen? What is the next part that

465
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:11,040
Speaker 2: people always claim?

466
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 3: They often point out that low lying cities and countries

467
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 3: and island chains will be overrun and will be uninhabitable.

468
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:20,400
Speaker 2: Okay, we'll move to higher ground, then.

469
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:24,199
Speaker 3: Move to the Yukon. Yeah, where was I? Because the

470
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 3: rest of this is really interesting two. Extremist climate enthusiasts

471
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 3: reveal their true colors when they push for d growth

472
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,400
Speaker 3: to cut emissions. You will hear that if you pay

473
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,760
Speaker 3: attention to this stuff, making people worse off and reversing

474
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:41,879
Speaker 3: gains against extreme poverty would be a tragic mistake and

475
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:47,960
Speaker 3: laughable blah blah. More responsible politicians only want to achieve

476
00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 3: net zero carbon emissions by the year twenty fifty, but

477
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:52,680
Speaker 3: this approach still means slow in growth in the name

478
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,639
Speaker 3: of climate change. By forcing businesses and individuals to use

479
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:57,440
Speaker 3: less efficient green energy instead.

480
00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:57,919
Speaker 2: Of fossil fuels.

481
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 3: The total costs would be enormous fifteen to seven I'm sorry,

482
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:06,480
Speaker 3: fifteen to thirty seven trillion dollars each year throughout the century,

483
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:11,119
Speaker 3: equivalent to between fifteen and forty percent of global GDP today,

484
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:15,080
Speaker 3: depending on how adjustments are made. Given wealthier countries will

485
00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:17,040
Speaker 3: foot most of this bill, the price tag will be

486
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,200
Speaker 3: the equivalent to each person in the better off nations

487
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:23,679
Speaker 3: paying north of ten thousand dollars every single year for

488
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 3: net zero emission growth, et cetera. The real cost of

489
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:32,680
Speaker 3: inefficient climate policy is that it distracts resources and attention

490
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 3: from other priorities and They use the example of the

491
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:42,119
Speaker 3: European Union that now invests nothing in R and D.

492
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 3: They don't come up with anything new. They just pour

493
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:49,480
Speaker 3: all of their money into these fanciful climate change programs.

494
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:52,480
Speaker 1: And India don't give a crap. China and India don't

495
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,280
Speaker 1: give a crap. Has always been the problem with this.

496
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: Even if you had everybody on board, you'd have the

497
00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 1: problems you're talking about.

498
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 2: But you don't have everybody on board.

499
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, they point out the EU switched focus with a

500
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 3: to a near myopic climate obsession, opting for a sustainable

501
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 3: economy over a sound one, a growing one, an innovative one.

502
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:16,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's leave them in our rearview mirrors. As Trump

503
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 1: said the other day, take advantage of the liquid gold

504
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 1: under our feet.

505
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 3: Right, and at the same time, for what it's worth.

506
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:26,680
Speaker 3: And it's not crazy that these two things, I mean,

507
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 3: I'm not bringing up two different things.

508
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 2: They're really kind of intermeshed.

509
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 3: Britain in particular, and it's so shocking because there are

510
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:41,120
Speaker 3: old Dad, good old Dad. Great Britain has abandoned free speech.

511
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:45,399
Speaker 3: They have abandoned the right to express yourself without fear

512
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 3: of retribution in a way that's just horrifying.

513
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,600
Speaker 1: Remember Trump renamed Britain bad teeth America.

514
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 2: That's right, that's right.

515
00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 3: But the woke thing and the climate that thing in

516
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,640
Speaker 3: the collective action, and if you're not with us, we're

517
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 3: going to put you in jail or run you out

518
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,560
Speaker 3: of your career or cancel you or it's all part

519
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:10,960
Speaker 3: of the same ugly collectivist monster.

520
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:15,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's see. This is the stuff that to me.

521
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:20,919
Speaker 1: Allowed people to vote for Trump who otherwise found him unpalatable.

522
00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 1: It's like, do you want to scream four years further

523
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:26,919
Speaker 1: down the road of all this climate change stuff and

524
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: let China and India get over by claiming that they

525
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 1: care about it while we, you know, failed to utilize

526
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:36,920
Speaker 1: our resources or do crap like banning straws.

527
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:38,240
Speaker 2: And all kinds of different things for no reason.

528
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 3: And the you know, wildly emoting, teary eyed nineteen year

529
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:46,639
Speaker 3: old girls who are shouting this stuff, they're sincere.

530
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 2: They mean it.

531
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,920
Speaker 3: They've been misled and deluded, and they're they're sem cultists,

532
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 3: but at least they're sincere. The government types that are

533
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:58,160
Speaker 3: pushing this are either fools or they're just spreading out

534
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 3: the money, because that's the point to spend the money.

535
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 3: That's your power, that's your influence, that's your turf in government.

536
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 3: The more money you spend, the more power you spend,

537
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 3: or the more power you have. So you invent these

538
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 3: needs to spend enormous amounts of money, and you become

539
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 3: enormously powerful.

540
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 1: Sell your parka, buy some shorts. That's been your stance

541
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:23,439
Speaker 1: for years.

542
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:27,000
Speaker 2: Hell, yeah, that's I'm sure. Just mitigate.

543
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 1: I just saw this headline, and I have to read

544
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:34,359
Speaker 1: the story during the break because this could be fun

545
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:39,360
Speaker 1: New York Post headline, Nancy Pelosi's husband made thirty eight

546
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:42,000
Speaker 1: million dollars with the stock trades in the weeks leading

547
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 1: up to the Trump inauguration.

548
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,240
Speaker 2: Oh that's funny. I have a bunch of other examples

549
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 2: of that.

550
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:49,960
Speaker 1: Now, could be just they're so super rich that that

551
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 1: sort of thing happens on a fairly regular basis.

552
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 2: I don't know, but.

553
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I want to be fair, because the stock

554
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 3: market did go up a lot. But I have some

555
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:01,840
Speaker 3: examples of congress people who served on the Mining Committee,

556
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 3: essentially it's shortening of the name, and oh boy, did

557
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,880
Speaker 3: they make some great bets on what mining companies would

558
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 3: benefit from legislation.

559
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 2: It's utterly corrupt. Wow.

560
00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:14,960
Speaker 1: Wow, we've got Key's headlines on the way, a bunch

561
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:19,720
Speaker 1: of other stuff. Stay here trying to wrap our heads

562
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:26,400
Speaker 1: around the whole birthright citizenship thing, which did some of

563
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: my right leaning friends say no, no, no, we need

564
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:31,680
Speaker 1: to keep that and here's why. And I still don't

565
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 1: quite understand it. But we can talk more about that later. Also,

566
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 1: I flit it out of my head. I got to

567
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,920
Speaker 1: start taking gin saying, or some of those late night

568
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:44,120
Speaker 1: talk radio ads revage and old people pills. I don't

569
00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 1: need a direction, but I do need my brain to

570
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 1: work better.

571
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:49,720
Speaker 3: As long as you can remember which one of those

572
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,400
Speaker 3: remedies you should be taking, you don't need it, that's

573
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 3: the irony.

574
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I can't remember, so I'm really in a hole.

575
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,959
Speaker 1: Not talk about you t and then it'll pop into

576
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 1: my head.

577
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 2: That's my plan as well.

578
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 3: So while you're thinking about that, the one thing I

579
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 3: didn't have time for in our discussion about climate change

580
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 3: and the enormous amount of money that would have to

581
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 3: be invested to he have even a minuscule effect. They

582
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 3: in the study, they explore an alternate reality where Europe

583
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:22,320
Speaker 3: hadn't spent you know, they're trillions of euros on these

584
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:27,480
Speaker 3: phony climate change methods, and how much more they would

585
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 3: have for pensions, education, healthcare, defense, like everything. They've squandered

586
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 3: so much money on a symbolic losing cause.

587
00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:37,480
Speaker 2: It's just shocking.

588
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:39,640
Speaker 1: I remember what it was, So remember the guy who

589
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 1: ran the Silk Road thing. It was the dark net

590
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 1: like Facebook, marketplace of the dark net, and people were

591
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:49,520
Speaker 1: buying selling guns and drugs and all kind of stuff.

592
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,680
Speaker 1: And he was running out of coffee shops in San Francisco.

593
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 1: He just go to the coffee shop and sit there

594
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:56,720
Speaker 1: with his website with his laptop and use their WiFi

595
00:30:56,760 --> 00:31:00,959
Speaker 1: and any who, he got a life sentence. Trump pardoned him,

596
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 1: let him out, and he got out yesterday and he

597
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 1: was smiling ear to ear. Reason. The libertarian Rag pointed

598
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 1: out yesterday that Trump ran on that. When he went

599
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 1: and spoke to the libertarians, he said he was going

600
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 1: to do that. It's a libertarian cause. Wanted to talk

601
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 1: a little more about that later. Yeah, that's an interesting topic.

602
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 1: It is really not super clear cut. Let's figure out

603
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,600
Speaker 1: who's reporting what. It's the lead story with Katie Green

604
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 1: and Katie.

605
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 7: Starting with ABC News New La County fire explodes to

606
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 7: over ten thousand acres.

607
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's bad.

608
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 1: Another fire and crazy windy today, so who knows where

609
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 1: it's going to go. It grew five thousand acres and

610
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:41,520
Speaker 1: two hours or something like that.

611
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 2: Just incredible.

612
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, much more rural area than the previous ones, but

613
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:48,200
Speaker 3: with these conditions.

614
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,280
Speaker 2: Who knows where it goes from?

615
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 7: NBC relief, revenge, but little repentance. Trump's pardons delight January sixth,

616
00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 7: Violent Offenders Boy.

617
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,600
Speaker 3: The Wall Street Journal editorial board went into detail what

618
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 3: some of these guys did on that day. They'd vowed

619
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:09,479
Speaker 3: to make the blood run, and then they were feeding

620
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:12,160
Speaker 3: and stent torturing cops virtually.

621
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 2: It's just horrific behavior.

622
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 1: Or think my question to you who support those guys,

623
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:20,560
Speaker 1: what were the cops supposed to do? I was all

624
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 1: a false flag operation the FBI ran at all, So

625
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 1: you don't think they were real cops.

626
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:27,320

631
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:44,640
Speaker 1: the easy way, and the easy way is always better

632
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,160
