Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong, Joe, Katty.
Speaker 2: Armstrong, and Jakie and Key.
Speaker 3: Armstrong live from Studio C see senor.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, the eighteen seed just knocked off the
Speaker 1: sixth seed just happened. We're in a dimly lit room
Speaker 1: deeper from the bowels of the Armstrong and Getty Communications Compound.
Speaker 2: Hey one.
Speaker 1: Today we're under the tutelage of our general manager. Judges.
Speaker 2: Judges everywhere, Judge many. Oh wait a minute, lest ye
Speaker 2: be judged?
Speaker 1: Boo.
Speaker 2: I hadn't thought of that one. It's a good one.
Speaker 4: Putting down my gavel, peeling off moroe. I've been doing
Speaker 4: too much judging, say judges. The three seed just beat
Speaker 4: the fourteen seed. Okay, that's expected as expected, but that's
Speaker 4: a close on.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Firstly, everything going on in the MURCA these days is
Speaker 4: going before judge sooner or later.
Speaker 1: It's craziness, right, And uh, I find that difficult to
Speaker 1: comment on because I I don't know what are you
Speaker 1: gonna do? What are you gonna do? So the listen
Speaker 1: to the Armstrong and Getdy Show and it'll bring you updates.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like a judge is looking.
Speaker 1: I guess by noon today, gotta get the information on
Speaker 1: the whole ship in Venezuela's the Venezuela whatever, whenever that happened.
Speaker 2: Let us know what you're figuring out. You know, when
Speaker 2: the game is over NonStop.
Speaker 1: Actually the nineteen seed has just gotten by the twenty
Speaker 1: two seed.
Speaker 2: It's changed the practice. It's much madness, don't you know. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm reminded.
Speaker 4: Since you get a ruling from a district court judge say,
Speaker 4: and then an appeals court judge no, no, non, it goes
Speaker 4: until maybe.
Speaker 2: The soups take a look at it.
Speaker 4: It's like America is a little kid that really wants
Speaker 4: a cupcake and mom says no, so he goes to dad.
Speaker 1: What your mom says no? Well right, yeah, there's that too.
Speaker 1: Mom didn't say anything dad, I just want a goodcake.
Speaker 1: But if dad says no, the kid goes to the uncle,
Speaker 1: and then like grandpa, and then great Grandpa.
Speaker 2: It's you know, he's got so many layers of appeal.
Speaker 1: It's not clear if you'll ever get a cupcake for
Speaker 1: a very long time.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 1: Here's something I heard from the dispatch. A couple of
Speaker 1: weeks ago on a podcast I thought was really really good.
Speaker 1: This is part of our whole performative politics and how
Speaker 1: it's not really taking us a good direction.
Speaker 2: Like for instance, Holman.
Speaker 1: The other day, and I like him booting out the
Speaker 1: illegals and all that sort of stuff.
Speaker 4: But he's tough talking. That's right, he's seen talking Tom Hole.
Speaker 1: He suggested, you know, we're doing it whether the judges
Speaker 1: say so or not or whatever, like, you can defy
Speaker 1: the judges, you don't care what the judges right, that
Speaker 1: sort of thing. And Biden did that all the time.
Speaker 1: So when the Supreme Court ruled against him bailing out
Speaker 1: student loans for college kids, he came up with different avenues.
Speaker 1: But in his speeches he would always say the Supreme
Speaker 1: Court told me I couldn't and I did it anyway,
Speaker 1: and the crowd would cheer like crazy, this notion of
Speaker 1: the president defying the courts, and that's not actually what
Speaker 1: he was doing. They were finding other technical ways to
Speaker 1: get around the idea, because that's legally the only thing.
Speaker 1: You can't actually just defy the court. But so it's
Speaker 1: been put into a bloodstream, this idea that you can
Speaker 1: just stand up to the courts and you can't.
Speaker 2: Right, they're trying to bully us, and we're not going
Speaker 2: to have it.
Speaker 1: But so now a lot of average voters, that's what
Speaker 1: they think because that's what they're being told by presidents
Speaker 1: of the United States, that you can just defy the
Speaker 1: courts if you're tough. Imagine if our brave free press
Speaker 1: had called out the Democrats when they were doing it,
Speaker 1: and then Trump came into office and started doing it,
Speaker 1: or Trump's people came into office and help, then they
Speaker 1: would have a fiber of credibility with which to call
Speaker 1: him on it.
Speaker 2: But they don't. There's such dummies.
Speaker 4: I mean, never mind the question of ethics or honesty
Speaker 4: or what's best for the country. Just as a business model,
Speaker 4: you people are stupid. You're so clouded by your ideology.
Speaker 4: You don't understand how you're cutting your own throats. But
Speaker 4: they're not listening to me, and that's fine. Go ahead,
Speaker 4: Oh oh, that's right. Your outlet is dying because you're
Speaker 4: terrible at your jobs.
Speaker 2: Why am I yelling at them? Why bother?
Speaker 4: So we're in a career airplane that's headed quickly toward
Speaker 4: the ground.
Speaker 1: A couple of things will be getting to today, the
Speaker 1: University of California, which is the biggest university system in
Speaker 1: the United States and so dictates a lot of what
Speaker 1: goes on in the country, will stop requiring diversities statements
Speaker 1: and they're hiring that is long, long over too and
Speaker 1: welcome as those statements were obscene. If you don't know
Speaker 1: what that means, we can get into that a little
Speaker 1: bit later. And the other one is Donald Trump is
Speaker 1: signing the executive order to wind down the Department of Education,
Speaker 1: something conservatives have wanted forever. And I was just reading
Speaker 1: in Mark Alpern's newsletter. The Trump people are well aware
Speaker 1: of the polling on this that is on their side,
Speaker 1: and they'll make a big showy splash out of this
Speaker 1: with kids and everything like that. In assigning Delio today,
Speaker 1: that will be to his benefit, right, I would agree completely.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I can't wait to talk about that. Got a
Speaker 4: lot of good stuff to get to today. There are
Speaker 4: all sorts of interesting developments on the Justice Department looking
Speaker 4: into this and going after that in a way that's
Speaker 4: very very pleasing. Oh my gosh. Yeah, the I think
Speaker 4: it's Justice Department.
Speaker 2: I had a check.
Speaker 4: But somebody is going to do a deep die into
Speaker 4: the Biden epas handing out of all of those billions
Speaker 4: of dollars to those activist groups, that giant, giant, graft
Speaker 4: driven slush fund.
Speaker 2: And I'm so happy about that. Here's my other.
Speaker 1: We've got to cut thats out to use the plain
Speaker 1: parlance of the American people. Oh, that is some That
Speaker 1: is some plane spoken frontier talk right there.
Speaker 2: Uh, cut the crap.
Speaker 1: You remember that was my slogan there for a cup
Speaker 1: of coffee. I love this story. It was in the
Speaker 1: New York Times yesterday, and we'll get to it a
Speaker 1: little bit later. We've talked about this before.
Speaker 2: Do we age in bursts for many people, aging fields?
Speaker 1: For many people, aging feels like it happens and stops
Speaker 1: and starts. And it turns out there's scientific basis for
Speaker 1: this experiment of this experience, and we'll talk about that later.
Speaker 1: That everything just doesn't gradually happen. He's just like, all
Speaker 1: of a sudden, this happens or that happens. Which is interesting.
Speaker 1: Why would we be built that way.
Speaker 4: To get out of the way of the young, make
Speaker 4: room for the young to come and have babies.
Speaker 2: But they're not holding up there.
Speaker 1: Like like Seinfeld says, about babies. Make no mistake. They
Speaker 1: are here to replace us.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's their goal.
Speaker 4: If you young people are not coupling and making babies,
Speaker 4: we oldsters are going to stick around and harass you
Speaker 4: until you start, all right, that's the deal. Put down
Speaker 4: your porn, stop your radical angry twenty two year old
Speaker 4: woman crap. Find the diff with somebody you like, you'd
Speaker 4: love and to get along with them to have.
Speaker 1: A damn family. That's enough vaping and get off my lawn.
Speaker 2: What did you stop vaping? Let's start to show officially.
Speaker 1: I'm Jack Armstrong, He's Joe Getty on this It is
Speaker 1: a Thursday, March twentieth year, twenty twenty five, happy to
Speaker 1: be alive in twenty five or Armstrong and geddy, and
Speaker 1: we approve of this program.
Speaker 4: I like your positivity. Let's begin now officially according to
Speaker 4: de f SEC rules regulations.
Speaker 1: Here we go at mark you guys, scare them a
Speaker 1: little bit, kick most of there.
Speaker 2: I do that. I know I can run him, but
Speaker 2: I don't know if we're going to fall into that
Speaker 2: place where we want to. Okay, we challenge you to
Speaker 2: a do you know a w W E fight?
Speaker 4: Wow, I'm intimidated, color me intimidated.
Speaker 1: So that was Tim Walls, which I thought I was
Speaker 1: going to get to not ever have to hear from again,
Speaker 1: But he was on Gavin Newsom's podcast the other day.
Speaker 1: Our executive producer is a theory that Gavin's bringing on
Speaker 1: these leading lights of the Democratic Party to to make
Speaker 1: them look dim next to him, which might be his strategy.
Speaker 2: Actually they make him look laugh, I laughed.
Speaker 4: If you make him looky, make him look reasonable maybe
Speaker 4: and and and smart?
Speaker 2: Yeah. Uh.
Speaker 1: Executive producer Hanson also suggested that America is the richer
Speaker 1: for having Tim Walls on the scene spouting his nonsense.
Speaker 1: And I would agree. He is an amusing ass cloud there.
Speaker 1: So his rap is about the Maga crowd, that he's
Speaker 1: a maggis in timid his masculinity. Boy, I don't know
Speaker 1: if he's reading that old thing, right, I love him.
Speaker 1: I'm sure he's reading. And I'm a knucklehead at times.
Speaker 1: I think I'd be happier if I could delude myself
Speaker 1: to that level. Off they're just mad at me because
Speaker 1: I'm so smart or something like that. Yeah, that's why
Speaker 1: we're man nailed it. We got to get the unedited
Speaker 1: version of that. I think the good folks can handle
Speaker 1: Tim Walls.
Speaker 2: Saying asses, I think we'll be all right. I hope
Speaker 2: we'll be all right.
Speaker 1: But he's a good here's a good one for you
Speaker 1: as a parent. So my son wants to take a
Speaker 1: girl to a movie this weekend. The state of the
Speaker 1: of movies is not what it used to be.
Speaker 2: It's weird.
Speaker 1: Uh everything is either uh R rated or a kid's movie.
Speaker 1: There's like nothing in between anymore. For some reason, it's
Speaker 1: just the way it is. Or a superhero movie. That's
Speaker 1: that's pretty much your choice, is superhero movie, R rated
Speaker 1: movie or children's movies.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think it has something to do with the fact
Speaker 1: that we're in the age of hyperbole. It's difficult to
Speaker 1: break through all the millions of signals wanting our attention
Speaker 1: with something that is subtle and you know, just you know,
Speaker 1: rich and homespun and you know what I'm saying, and
Speaker 1: some onceritysl and a certain number of our movies are
Speaker 1: not that are are They're just anyway they want to
Speaker 1: go to this one particular movie that I researched, and
Speaker 1: it's just there's some scary it's horror film stuff.
Speaker 2: Scary horror film stuff. That's why it's rated R. Doesn't
Speaker 2: have the hardcore frontal sex in it or whatever.
Speaker 1: Anyway, I was thinking about and I was going to
Speaker 1: ask the parents of I take them in there to
Speaker 1: the R rated movie, then I leave, I drop them off,
Speaker 1: just to get them into the rated movie.
Speaker 2: Does anybody do that? That's an interesting question. I have
Speaker 2: no idea.
Speaker 1: It seems reasonable, if you know, if you've looked into it,
Speaker 1: and it's fine. Although, oh, that's right, our is restricted
Speaker 1: without your presence. Yeah, I don't know what aren't read there?
Speaker 1: What AR means anymore? What does it mean?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I think you gotta leave the law? Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you've once again defrauded an inch. Yes, Gers Jack was
Speaker 1: guilty of years ago. I remember correctly.
Speaker 4: It was anybody under seventeen needed to be accompanied by
Speaker 4: a parent.
Speaker 1: Through the door or throughout the entire movie. That's what
Speaker 1: I ad the movie. But I have to hold their
Speaker 1: hands and hold their hands. Well, you got to be
Speaker 1: ready at any moment to yanks amount of the cen
Speaker 1: the film.
Speaker 2: Sunfolds, right, cover your eyes, son, cover You're there to
Speaker 2: cover their.
Speaker 1: When the film unfolds. Can't have that anyway, if you
Speaker 1: have any opinion on that, you can text us. And
Speaker 1: we got Katie's headlines on the way four one, five, two, nine,
Speaker 1: five kftc.
Speaker 2: Age in jumps.
Speaker 1: According to new studies, the two ages where you jump
Speaker 1: old the most.
Speaker 2: We can get that for you. Maybe next hour on
Speaker 2: the Armstrong and Giddisha, or maybe this hour. I don't know.
Speaker 1: When I'm so old that I no longer can remember,
Speaker 1: I might not be around next hour if I jump,
Speaker 1: you know too far, Wow, well you'll be missed. But
Speaker 1: there are two ages where all of a sudden boom,
Speaker 1: you're way older.
Speaker 2: You're gonna want to know what those are.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, let's figure out who's reporting what.
Speaker 2: It's the lead story with Katie Green. Katie, what's happening?
Speaker 5: Well, starting with USA today, Trump to sign order aimed
Speaker 5: at eliminating.
Speaker 2: The education Department.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that is gonna be uh popular. They've already
Speaker 1: reduced the size by half. But the more on that
Speaker 1: later and how it began, which I think is key
Speaker 1: to the argument of.
Speaker 2: Why it should end. Freaking Jimmy Carter, Damn.
Speaker 5: Jimmy Carter from ABC Ukraine targets key Russian air base
Speaker 5: with quote massive drone attack.
Speaker 2: Yeah, ain't cease firing yet.
Speaker 5: From NBC, Israeli military launches new ground operation in.
Speaker 1: There's another one that ain't ended yet. Oh no, and
Speaker 1: it can't it won't.
Speaker 2: From the New York Post.
Speaker 5: Anti Israel protesters push past NYPD to enter World Trade
Speaker 5: Center's oculus.
Speaker 2: Wow, I didn't see that. How did the NYPD let
Speaker 2: them get by? They overpowered them? Really? Yeah, they were outnumbered.
Speaker 5: Up, I'm doing a Katie's Corner and I'll put the
Speaker 5: video on there.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Wow.
Speaker 4: How much longer will America kneel before angry people just
Speaker 4: because they're from the left, and only when they're from
Speaker 4: the left. From the New York Stot, I just keep
Speaker 4: doing it, and you'll see the Democratic Party shrink and
Speaker 4: shrink and shrink because normal people see that and they're aghast.
Speaker 2: From the New York Times.
Speaker 5: China executed four Canadians over drug related convictions, a development
Speaker 5: that threatens to worsen an already tense relationship.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not like we in Cana that got along
Speaker 1: with China before this, But they executed four Canadians after
Speaker 1: Canada said, hey, yeah, don't need to do this.
Speaker 2: Why don't you just send a mirror or something they
Speaker 2: executed in for them. Wow, don't go to one of
Speaker 2: those authoritarian countries and think you can do.
Speaker 5: Drugs from the New York Times's that's a that's a
Speaker 5: poke in Canada, right, I mean, then that's the point
Speaker 5: of that, isn't it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And there's probably.
Speaker 4: A domestic aspect to two sision. Ping is probably trying
Speaker 4: to h gin up support at home to look at me,
Speaker 4: how I'm standing up to these foreigners. It's like the
Speaker 4: opium Wars of the Brits infected us. We're not having
Speaker 4: it now. I'm not having it now. I'm standing up
Speaker 4: for you China.
Speaker 2: New York Times.
Speaker 5: Europe delays tariffs on US whiskey and other goods.
Speaker 4: From younger So many ways to get drunk. I mean,
Speaker 4: I have my favorites, don't we all. But if they
Speaker 4: like outlawed American whiskey, this final drink, Scotch or Irish
Speaker 4: whiskey or whatever, or will huff paint or something. I
Speaker 4: realized if you're in the industry, it's terrible. It's disruptive
Speaker 4: and probably unnecessary. But yes, I don't think it's as.
Speaker 1: Impactful as non drunks think it is I still got
Speaker 1: a glue bottle?
Speaker 2: I'm fine? Oh boy?
Speaker 5: From Yahoo news man tries to set Tesla chargers on fire,
Speaker 5: accidentally sets himself.
Speaker 2: On fire as well.
Speaker 1: Yeah good, We got some more on this whole clearly
Speaker 1: domestic terrorism issue to talk about later.
Speaker 5: From The Wall Street Journal, a facelift at thirty five,
Speaker 5: Why younger women are going under the knife?
Speaker 1: Ah interesting that age is a little earlier than one
Speaker 1: of the big jumps you make in aging, which we'll
Speaker 1: get to later.
Speaker 2: That is so no, no, just no.
Speaker 5: And finally, the Babylon be Democrats say fire at Tesla facility.
Speaker 2: Likely caused by climate change.
Speaker 1: So, uh, you're wanting you don't want women to look pretty?
Speaker 1: Is that what you're going?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 4: Good lord, If you're carving up your face in your
Speaker 4: mid thirties, why yeah, but why yeah, well yeah, not
Speaker 4: only that, but oh because the natural processes of life
Speaker 4: aren't acceptable. And your plan or your point of view
Speaker 4: is what he's explained to me, your point of view,
Speaker 4: I've just got to stay as hot as I was
Speaker 4: at twenty four my entire life.
Speaker 1: I was thinking about when I was at the stupid,
Speaker 1: Stupid Captain America movie the other day with Harrison Ford
Speaker 1: in it.
Speaker 2: He's a guy who's just aged.
Speaker 1: He clearly hasn't had any work done, or at least
Speaker 1: he hasn't clearly had work done. He looks like an
Speaker 1: old man, and it's so much better than looking like
Speaker 1: Kenny Rogers or you know, any of those weirdos who
Speaker 1: carve up their faces and become laughing stocks.
Speaker 2: He just looks like an old man, which he's supposed
Speaker 2: to be. Two. Yeah, yeah, you know.
Speaker 4: I suppose I should be more compassionate for people who
Speaker 4: are suffering so acutely over their natural aging that they
Speaker 4: that they get this done.
Speaker 2: I don't know. Yeah, that's interesting. We will talk about
Speaker 2: the whole aging thing. We'll get to that.
Speaker 1: And I do want to talk about this domestic terrorism
Speaker 1: that needs to be called out more by mainstream media.
Speaker 2: I'll say that Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 6: And a firm believer that President Trump will run and
Speaker 6: went again at twenty twenty eight, so I've already endorsed
Speaker 6: President Trump.
Speaker 2: A man like this comes along.
Speaker 6: Once every century. If we're lucky, we've got him now.
Speaker 6: He's on fire, and I'm a huge supporter. I want
Speaker 6: to see him again in twenty twenty.
Speaker 1: Eight no, right, whatever, Steve benn and what a con man.
Speaker 1: Nice trolling, all right, we're trying to get some headlines.
Speaker 1: That was a little over the top even for use. Yes,
Speaker 1: it was even by his standards, that was too much.
Speaker 1: Here are the two ages where you jump in aging,
Speaker 1: and then we'll get to the details a little bit
Speaker 1: later from this new study that's out. You don't age gradually.
Speaker 1: They're like cliffs. And the two ages where you jump
Speaker 1: in aging the most, they say are forty and sixty.
Speaker 1: Not my experience, true fact, Ding, that's not really my experience,
Speaker 1: but you know, your mileage may vary. I don't have
Speaker 1: any memory of all of a sudden feeling forty four.
Speaker 1: Actually it's forty four and sixty, specifically forty four feeling
Speaker 1: great At age forty three, you're windsurfing and mountain climbing,
Speaker 1: and I don't know one of all the things you're doing,
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden you're in a wheelchair.
Speaker 4: You you have it bound down right exactly more on
Speaker 4: that list.
Speaker 2: It's a range, yeh. And my experience aging is a
Speaker 2: lot like mountain biking. Jack.
Speaker 4: I will explain when we talk about it later on,
Speaker 4: but I can attest to at least part of that.
Speaker 4: So a couple of absolutely excellent examples of.
Speaker 2: The Justice Department doing what it should do.
Speaker 4: First of all, Pam Bondi has said that Tesla set
Speaker 4: on fire, bullets and bombs aimed at showroom and charging
Speaker 4: stations are domestic terrorism. A Justice Department crackdown has been announced.
Speaker 4: She has announced what she've used as politically motivated attacks
Speaker 4: against Tesla and leader Elon Musk when President's most powerful
Speaker 4: advisors quote the swarm of violent attacks on Tesla property
Speaker 4: is nothing short of domestic terrorism, adding that prosecutors would
Speaker 4: pursue federal charges that can carry long mandatory prison sentences
Speaker 4: and unlike your say California shoplifting conviction, where you get
Speaker 4: sentenced to two years, you know, if you're like a
Speaker 4: serial shoplifter and end up serving five and a half
Speaker 4: months or what have you not, So with federal sentences,
Speaker 4: you do your time.
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 1: A number of people on the right have pointed out
Speaker 1: that many of the article are the coverage about the
Speaker 1: whole Tesla attacks and the domestic terrorism. There's a yeah,
Speaker 1: but can you blame them? I mean, here's why they're
Speaker 1: so mad, laying out all the flaws of Elon Musk,
Speaker 1: which is something that wouldn't be happening if you had
Speaker 1: maga people out there. I don't know what would they
Speaker 1: be attacking. I don't know what would maga people attack something. Yeah,
Speaker 1: some woke ceo said something. Target stores.
Speaker 4: You know they're setting fire to Target stores back during
Speaker 4: the Hey, tell your kid to tuck away his penis
Speaker 4: and pretend to be.
Speaker 2: A little girl sale.
Speaker 1: The New York Times wouldn't be explaining away, Well, you
Speaker 1: can't blame them for being mad, because here's what Target did,
Speaker 1: the way they're doing in every article.
Speaker 2: And well, I've got a quick example of that.
Speaker 1: For many, says The New York Times, the people that
Speaker 1: are attacking Tesla dealerships and setting Tesla's on fire. For many,
Speaker 1: the deal breaker came when mister Musk made a gesture
Speaker 1: that resembled a fascist salute while speaking at a rally
Speaker 1: celebrating poet from the Inuguration.
Speaker 2: That's from The New York Times.
Speaker 1: The deal biker for these domestic terrorists were when Elon
Speaker 1: Musk waved to the crowd in a weird, autistic way,
Speaker 1: and you claimed it was a Nazi salute. That's actually
Speaker 1: in the New York Times, and everybody agreed. Anybody with
Speaker 1: any conscience agreed, No, that's not what he was doing.
Speaker 1: But that was the final straw for many. So domestic
Speaker 1: terrorism is okay. You people are just a joke Nazi.
Speaker 4: In the past few weeks alone, federal prosecutors say a
Speaker 4: Colorado woman, through molotov cocktails at vehicles at a dealership,
Speaker 4: scrawled the word Nazi on one of its signs. I
Speaker 4: think it was a rich lowry of The National Review
Speaker 4: went through all the ways in which calling Elon Muska
Speaker 4: Nazi is hilariously misguided. I won't bother her, but it's idiotic.
Speaker 4: Nazi just means anything you don't like. Now, it's like fascist.
Speaker 4: An Oregon man file fired bullets and explosives into a
Speaker 4: dealership in its cars. In a South Carolina man spray
Speaker 4: painted anti Trump messages on a Tesla charging station parking
Speaker 4: spot before throwing five homemade bombs at the chargers, torching them.
Speaker 4: Inside the man's bedroom, investigators found a purple composition notebook
Speaker 4: with a three page handwritten statement that asserted, you know
Speaker 4: you never see brevity among maniacs.
Speaker 2: Has science ever studied why that's? A fast?
Speaker 4: High editor right right, Hey Jim, you're rambling twenty five
Speaker 4: thousand word manifesto, very very compelling, but I feel like
Speaker 4: we could tighten it up.
Speaker 1: I see your point about the eco terrorism. But this
Speaker 1: is a run on sentence.
Speaker 4: So the handwritten statement asserted anti government beliefs and statements
Speaker 4: opposed to the Department of Government efficiency. According to court
Speaker 4: documents anyway, So Pam Bondi has said, no, this Chisneizzel
Speaker 4: will not stand.
Speaker 2: It's terrorism.
Speaker 1: I mean, if somebody spray paints graffiti on something, they
Speaker 1: don't need to spend ten years in the federal pen.
Speaker 1: I mean it'll We'll give them a good solid slapping
Speaker 1: on the wrist, and you know that's probably good enough.
Speaker 1: Can you believe The New York Times, in their big
Speaker 1: article about Tesla vandalism, actually said, for some the deal
Speaker 1: breaker came when mister Musk made a gesture.
Speaker 2: That resembled a fashion salute. Can you believe that dumb?
Speaker 4: It is dumb and nakedly desperate for a rationale.
Speaker 2: Have you seen all the pictures and videos where they
Speaker 2: have you know, name whoever, Kamala Harris, Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton,
Speaker 2: anybody on the left raising their hand like that. At
Speaker 2: some point in a crap because you do it all
Speaker 2: the time. Oh yeah, you're waving to a friend or
Speaker 2: pointing out a bird, whatever you're doing. It doesn't mean
Speaker 2: you're a Nazi.
Speaker 4: Reminds me very much, in an odd way of when
Speaker 4: Deborah Burks you remember a scarf lady from the COVID
Speaker 4: that was there was Those were good times where she
Speaker 4: said and it's very very important, do not touch your face,
Speaker 4: and touch your face like five times during the speech please,
Speaker 4: people routinely wave like that anyway.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just.
Speaker 4: I am astounded how stupid smart people can be when
Speaker 4: their ideology blinds them. Anyway, So the thing was a yes,
Speaker 4: nobody in New York Times or anybody else ever pays
Speaker 4: off the point of this. So should the Trump administration
Speaker 4: get rid of elaon Musk and Doge and stop trying
Speaker 4: to cut government because people are setting Tesla's on fire?
Speaker 4: In other words, you let people who are violent dictate policy?
Speaker 2: Is that what you want? I mean, that's nuts.
Speaker 4: There are somebody on the left who their muscles of
Speaker 4: argument are completely atrophied because they are so bubbled, and
Speaker 4: they famously don't know any Trump voters, don't know anybody
Speaker 4: who knows any Trump voters. They never look at arguments
Speaker 4: from the right and anywhere on the right, whether the
Speaker 4: Mega writer or the National Review writer or the Wall
Speaker 4: Street Journal or the Washington Times. They're just never exposed
Speaker 4: to those arguments at all, and so their muscles of
Speaker 4: argument I think of atrophied to the point where they say,
Speaker 4: you know, that ridiculous stuff about the alleged Nazi salute,
Speaker 4: that's absurd. It's not just a weak argument, it's like
Speaker 4: a parody.
Speaker 2: Anyway.
Speaker 4: I thought this was also really really good Trump's epa
Speaker 4: versus Biden's dark climate money. A lawsuit may expose how
Speaker 4: the Democratic green New Steel really worked. See that I
Speaker 4: changed deal into steel like that?
Speaker 1: I like that devastating, so, as some the editorial board
Speaker 1: at the Journal points out, imagine if Republicans gave the
Speaker 1: Trump administration tens of billions of dollars to dole out
Speaker 1: to right wing groups to sprinkle around to favorite businesses,
Speaker 1: whether they were like related.
Speaker 4: To the alleged goal or not. That's what Democrats did
Speaker 4: with the Inflation Reduction Act. The Trump team's effort to
Speaker 4: break this spending racket up has led to a court
Speaker 4: brawl which could.
Speaker 2: Be educational t wit.
Speaker 4: EPA administrator Lee zeld In goal Go recently canceled some
Speaker 4: twenty billion dollars in grants that his Biden predecessors there
Speaker 4: rushed out to left wing groups from the EPA's Greenhouse
Speaker 4: Gas Reduction Fund, which again could literally go to anything.
Speaker 4: Democrats established this quasi private green bank in the inflation reduction.
Speaker 2: It makes me sick to even call it that.
Speaker 4: The Green New dealct to avoid government oversight of climate spending. Specifically,
Speaker 4: they structured it the way they did so there would
Speaker 4: be no accountability. Mister Zelden claims the freeze is needed
Speaker 4: because of substantial concerns regarding program integrity, the award process,
Speaker 4: programmatic fraud, waste abuse, and misalignment with the agency's priorities.
Speaker 4: And he's right that the program is rife with political conflicts.
Speaker 4: For instance, in one example, the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund,
Speaker 4: the director jih Wise oversaw a five billion dollar grant
Speaker 4: to his former employer, Coalition for Green Capital. Through a
Speaker 4: bunch more, here's two billion dollars to Power Forward Communities,
Speaker 4: an umbrella group of climate outfits that was formed specifically
Speaker 4: to receive the money. It was formed in twenty twenty three,
Speaker 4: supposedly to finance home energy efficiency upgrades, but the IRA
Speaker 4: includes tax credits and other grant programs for this purpose
Speaker 4: Power forwards. Real purpose is to spread spread taxpayer funds
Speaker 4: to progressives.
Speaker 2: There are a bunch more examples.
Speaker 4: It is egregious and shameless, and I say go get
Speaker 4: them our two.
Speaker 2: We'll get to that hole.
Speaker 1: The way we age thing which is new and I
Speaker 1: think it's going to be uh, you know, news you
Speaker 1: can use. I don't know how you plan ahead or
Speaker 1: I don't know, plan that cross country ski trip before
Speaker 1: you turn forty four.
Speaker 2: Maybe that's what you do something like that. I don't know.
Speaker 2: And also we got mailbag on the way next day
Speaker 2: here a strong I y'all do it? Go ahead? The
Speaker 2: one glad to hear it.
Speaker 1: The big, the big part of the tournament starts today,
Speaker 1: right Thursday. I mean, you had some playing games and
Speaker 1: all that sort of stuff, but your march man kind
Speaker 1: of out of touch with the tournament this year for
Speaker 1: some reason. I'll get into it on lots of games today.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, huh.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to pick the best freedom loving quote of
Speaker 1: the day.
Speaker 2: Michael. You know, I may go with this one. Teddy
Speaker 2: was a really interesting guy.
Speaker 4: He overcame childhood illness and weakness and became perhaps the
Speaker 4: world's greatest advocate for hard work and overcoming obstacles and
Speaker 4: that sort of thing.
Speaker 1: We're on a first name basis Teddy who Oh sorry,
Speaker 1: Teddy Roosevelt is continuing our our series from Theodore Roosevelt
Speaker 1: to a number of people have been commenting via email,
Speaker 1: so I forget I have to set, but I'll go
Speaker 1: with this one. Never throughout history has a man who
Speaker 1: lived a life of ease left a name worth remembering.
Speaker 2: Wow. Based on talking to my high schooler, he would say,
Speaker 2: I don't care. Then perhaps read him this.
Speaker 1: The boy who was going to make a great man
Speaker 1: must not make up his mind merely to overcome a
Speaker 1: thousand obstacles, but to win in spite of a thousand
Speaker 1: repulses and defeats.
Speaker 4: Count your repulses and defeats. If you're not too a thousand,
Speaker 4: You've got to keep striving. Friends. Mailbag wo drops no
Speaker 4: mailbag at Armstrong and getty dot com. First of all,
Speaker 4: Rich has a comment on the famous quote from Governor
Speaker 4: Jerry Brown of cal Unicornia we played yesterday.
Speaker 7: Those who have been blessed the most who have disproportionately
Speaker 7: attracted by whatever skill, more and more from the national wealth.
Speaker 7: They're gonna have to share more of that.
Speaker 2: That's so freaky perverse. It makes me insane. Anybody who
Speaker 2: was going to use so we put in jail. Wow.
Speaker 2: Well yeah, the idea of communist you're you're promoting communism,
Speaker 2: and I want you out of society. There's a fixed.
Speaker 4: Pie of quote national wealth, and anybody who creates a
Speaker 4: successful business and earns more money, for instance, has taken money,
Speaker 4: not added to the economy, but taken from it.
Speaker 2: Good law.
Speaker 1: Course, he, like many politicians, ended up really wealthy somehow.
Speaker 1: But I guess that doesn't there's nothing wrong with that
Speaker 1: kind of wealth, precisely rich rights.
Speaker 4: I think we might be taking Jerry's words wrong, all wrong.
Speaker 4: According to dogs, there are plenty of people extracting money
Speaker 4: from the national wealth. That's the way he sees the world.
Speaker 4: Keep up the good work, you keep up the good work, rich.
Speaker 4: That's a fine email. Let's see this is from Aaron.
Speaker 2: The Left.
Speaker 1: Be kind, humankind, Kindness is everything. Inclusiveness me, I know
Speaker 1: what that really means. You want me to align myself
Speaker 1: morally and philosophically with gender theory.
Speaker 2: No thanks, I'm not interested.
Speaker 4: The Left die early, you nazi effing maggot scum. Maggot
Speaker 4: not spelled in the standard form jack referring to the
Speaker 4: larva of the fly, but indeed maga with a tea
Speaker 4: at the end, magat scum, which is something a leftist
Speaker 4: friend of thirty five years actually said.
Speaker 2: To me a few weeks ago.
Speaker 4: Wow, kindness, Yeah, yeah, let's see Jeff said this along.
Speaker 1: It is a bit of a meme. I haven't seen
Speaker 1: Democrats this mad since we took away their slaves.
Speaker 2: You know what.
Speaker 1: That's that's well, yeah, the Democrats were the party's slavery,
Speaker 1: as you remember, I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't get a lot of joy out of that
Speaker 2: sort of thing.
Speaker 1: To me, the roles and identities of the parties have
Speaker 1: shifted and switched so many times means century.
Speaker 2: And a half.
Speaker 1: If you just want to be mean, though, it's pretty good, eh.
Speaker 1: I have been that mad since we took away their slaves.
Speaker 4: Eric the Machinist writes on the topic of large televisions.
Speaker 4: When my wife and I were television shopping a couple
Speaker 4: of years ago, she asked why I wanted the largest
Speaker 4: television that would reasonably fit on her living room wall.
Speaker 1: This comes from me going to Costco and seeing they
Speaker 1: now have a ninety eight inch television on display.
Speaker 2: Ninety eight yes, oh give me.
Speaker 4: I told her that some people actually enjoyed coming home
Speaker 4: and watching a little television, but I didn't want to
Speaker 4: be that guy. It was the first time I actually
Speaker 4: heard someone's eyes audibly roll back in their head. Also,
Speaker 4: Jack is the only person I've ever heard of that
Speaker 4: simultaneously doesn't care about food and has no self control
Speaker 4: with it.
Speaker 1: Pick a lane, Jack, I'm the same with the TV.
Speaker 1: I don't even hardly ever watch television, So why do
Speaker 1: I want a ninety eight inch television?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Well, I've told this story before, but a one hundred
Speaker 1: years ago, when we worked in beautiful Charlotte, North Carolina,
Speaker 1: you spent a couple of days on the air talking
Speaker 1: about how you were through a TV. It was stu
Speaker 1: but in a waste of time essentially, and then literally
Speaker 1: the next day you purchased the biggest TV I had
Speaker 1: at that point ever seen in my life. Well, I'm mercurier,
Speaker 1: that's my charm. Yes, yes, how Bet, I watched ninety
Speaker 1: eight percent of all TV and movies on my phone
Speaker 1: on my phone.
Speaker 2: Hm.
Speaker 4: Wow, let's see on Oswald and Lee R v. Oswald
Speaker 4: and the assassination of JFK. And I've got to dig
Speaker 4: up more revelations because they're still coming and they're not
Speaker 4: like smoking gunnish, Oh my god, but they are so
Speaker 4: illustrative of how spycraft worked in the middle part of
Speaker 4: the twentieth century and how the CIA was out of control. Anyway,
Speaker 4: Jay and San Jose, Right, So I'm listening to all
Speaker 4: the experts talk about the new information.
Speaker 2: My guess was it wasn't super complicated.
Speaker 4: Seems that the minimum Oswald was an informant for the CIA.
Speaker 4: He hears CIA folks lamenting about JFK, who didn't trust
Speaker 4: the CIA and fired their boss, and Oswald takes it
Speaker 4: on himself to assassinate JFK, maybe to be a hero
Speaker 4: to his CIA or Communist friends, who knows not. Some
Speaker 4: big play people go rogue sometimes. And he says, you
Speaker 4: should do an experiment, run all the documents through chat,
Speaker 4: GPT or whatever AI and then ask it what all
Speaker 4: this info means about who killed JFK. Ah interesting, that
Speaker 4: is interesting. Speaking of which, Darren writes, Hello, gentlemen, just
Speaker 4: to make Jack feel more anxious about AI, I can
Speaker 4: confidently declare that the age of AI coding has arrived.
Speaker 4: The tools that they're rolling out and the employers like
Speaker 4: mine are embracing. Now feel like having a dedicated program
Speaker 4: or intern that instantly completes any task that you give them. Sure,
Speaker 4: you still have to check the work for now, but
Speaker 4: prompts like write me some code that does X, y
Speaker 4: zor how can I make this code better? Or help
Speaker 4: me debug why this system is failing quickly yield quality
Speaker 4: code that is integrated into a project with the click
Speaker 4: of a button, and suggestions that massively improve productivity. Jack,
Speaker 4: please take steps to protect your vital fluids from our
Speaker 4: AI overlords.
Speaker 2: The time is at hand.
Speaker 1: That's got to be so disappointing if you're good at coding,
Speaker 1: or spend a lot of time learning how to do it.
Speaker 2: Man times change, he.
Speaker 1: Says, KSFTFB keeps searching for that firm bottom.
Speaker 4: That's my favorite stock market term. And we don't really
Speaker 4: have time for this. From Chuck in Vancouver, Washington. But
Speaker 4: homeschoolers are under attack, absolutely true. Illinois and Washington State
Speaker 4: in particular, attacking homeschooling.
Speaker 2: It to be hest of the evil teachers.
Speaker 1: Unions definitely want to talk about this on the day
Speaker 1: Trump's going to get rid of the Department of Education.
