00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 1: Ah beat Force. If it doesn't work, you're just not

00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 1: have b K coming on this episode to talk his

6
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 1: uh suspension from Twitter, which is still ongoing. I don't

7
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,960
Speaker 1: know if he's permanently banned, and he's gonna be on

8
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 1: his burner account. But before before that, UM, we do

9
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 1: have a recent guest of the podcast, Marine Corps Major

10
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 1: Fred Galvin. And although we promised a future discussion UH,

11
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: an in depth discussion on China, we won't be doing

12
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 1: that today. I reached out to Fred because I just

13
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 1: heard actually yesterday about the passing of Congressman Walter Jones. UM.

14
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 1: Before I get your reaction, actually, uh, Major Galvin, I

15
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 1: could tell you just real quick, if you don't mind,

16
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 1: Walter Jones is a guy I've known about for years, UM.

17
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 1: And the stuff that I know about Walter Jones, prior

18
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: to even even knowing that he involved in your case

19
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 1: of with mar Sock, was that he was a guy

20
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: who was like an adamant supporter of the war in

21
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,640
Speaker 1: Iraq and I don't know if you know this Jack.

22
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 1: He's the guy who who decided we weren't gonna call

23
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 1: French Fries anymore French Fries. We're gonna call him Freedom Fries.

24
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 1: As the years passed though, and he saw guys coming

25
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 1: back to his district losing whims, he really rethought his

26
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 1: position and he was like, why are we over here?

27
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: And he did a complete one eighty. And he was

28
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 1: the guy was able to go out there and say, look,

29
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 1: I shouldn't have voted for this war and I didn't

30
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 1: know that. Yeah, And it's something that I think politicians

31
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 1: don't do nowadays, And you know, they're so focused on

32
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 1: being consistent that they can't go out and say, look,

33
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,680
Speaker 1: we had bad information and this is not a vote

34
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,359
Speaker 1: I would have made. Um. So I I really respected

35
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: him for that. Also, I know he was like an

36
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 1: adamant Ron Paul supporter from two thousand and eight and

37
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: two thousand twelve, which, to you know, be fair, I

38
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 1: was as well. Uh. And and he was a guy

39
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 1: who from what I know, and you could probably speak

40
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: more on this thread, he he was an adamant supporter

41
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 1: of the troops when it came to funding for troops

42
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: for making sure that they got the equipment they needed.

43
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 1: But when it came to like a surge in Iraq,

44
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: he departed from the Republican Party and would say, like,

45
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 1: you know, why are we still there? And I like

46
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 1: the fact that he was a guy who wasn't just

47
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 1: gonna go with the party on everything and voted his

48
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: conscience conscious And that's the same reason I think that

49
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,399
Speaker 1: he helped you guys out when the media was hammering

50
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 1: mar Sock for these false accusations of war crimes. So

51
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: with that, I kind of wanted to get your reaction. Yes,

52
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 1: those are some really unique things that the character of

53
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 1: conis from Jones. And I will say this, the seven

54
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 1: of us who were false accused of nineteen counts of

55
00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: killing Afghan civilians and fifty of woundings Afghan civilians, it

56
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 1: would have been entirely different story if this gentleman that

57
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 1: we're talking about, who, as you mentioned, passed away on

58
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 1: Sunday on the seventy six birthday, you know, if he

59
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: had not taken that courageous stand. And just like he

60
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 1: said on the last podcast, what's going on right now

61
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: is people are gearing up for an election cycle that

62
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:24,479
Speaker 1: was going on what our case was, and he did

63
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,479
Speaker 1: not know us. None of our families or any of

64
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 1: us contacted him. And it took a lot of courage

65
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 1: during some nice gearing up for a campaign for re

66
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 1: election to go out and defend seven people who he

67
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 1: did not know. He didn't know any of the story

68
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,720
Speaker 1: to it. And but he didn't know that there were

69
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,839
Speaker 1: senior Army officers that had gone to the press the

70
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:52,359
Speaker 1: Washington Post in the print and one from Afghanistan, Colonel Nicholson,

71
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,919
Speaker 1: who later you know, got promoted all the way before

72
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 1: star General was in charge of all forces in Afghast

73
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 1: and he made a televised press conference to the Pentagon

74
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: Press Corps. He's answering questions to Reuters and many others

75
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,479
Speaker 1: about stating that you know, we killed, and that was

76
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 1: his speech where he said, this was a terrible, terrible

77
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 1: shames staying on our honory. He apologized for America. Congressman

78
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 1: Jones stood up on the floor of the House Representatives

79
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 1: and said no. And there were there were several officers

80
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 1: army and marine as well who made some very public

81
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 1: and derogatory comments. And as you know, in the military

82
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 1: justice system, it's not like in the civilian world, where

83
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:36,159
Speaker 1: you get promoted or retained in your organization based on

84
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 1: I mean, if if you say something against what a

85
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,839
Speaker 1: general officer has said, and those are the people that

86
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 1: are the convenient authority, and they're also your promotion authority,

87
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: it can look really bad for your future. In so

88
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 1: Congngressman Jones was the only one who stood up for us.

89
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 1: And then after he said that, and there's you know

90
00:05:56,400 --> 00:06:00,920
Speaker 1: some you know military leaders who retreated from their earlier comments.

91
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 1: But we owe him so much, not just for that

92
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:09,480
Speaker 1: stand in two thousand seven, but you know, he called

93
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 1: me like where I'm at right now and he said, Fred,

94
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 1: this is after this was the summer he had he

95
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:20,160
Speaker 1: was running against his Republican in the primary. He won

96
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: that he was uncontested against the Democrat in the general

97
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 1: election this last fall, and he said, Fred, I've just won.

98
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 1: This is given me my last term. Because if this

99
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 1: is the last thing that I do, Major Galvin, I

100
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: am going to make sure we clear your names. He

101
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: goes this, that's my focus and I'm not making this up.

102
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: His is a legislative assistant. Katherine Jordan's was on the phone.

103
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 1: You know, meant a lot to me. Because this has

104
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 1: affects our men so deeply and so negatively. And you know,

105
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 1: I say that I'm making an assumption here that you know,

106
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 1: some of these medical situations were reported. You know, Conngressman

107
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 1: Jones was starting toting treated the last and I think

108
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 1: he knew that, you know, this could in fact be

109
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,440
Speaker 1: one of the last things that he did. And you know,

110
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,159
Speaker 1: then we received that report last month in January, and

111
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 1: you know he swore in bedside for this term and

112
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 1: you know that was but the last thing I know

113
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 1: that he did is a congressman, is that Ententagon report

114
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 1: that cleared us. He's just a man of his word, courageous,

115
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 1: took action and as you mentioned, you know he he

116
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 1: shows the true ethos of of a man, a human being,

117
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 1: you know, to show the character that you know, you

118
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 1: could be wrong and you could admit your mistakes because

119
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 1: like in the military, a lot of the senior leaders,

120
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: that's that's looked at as a flaw if you admit

121
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 1: that you made a mistake. And and that's that's where

122
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 1: I think, you know, people go wrong. Whether you're an aviator,

123
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 1: I mean, you don't have a lot of time to

124
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 1: make you know, to correct the mistakes and and that

125
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 1: is I think one of the hazards in our military

126
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: is when leaders are going down the wrong path and

127
00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 1: they will not reverse at Congressman Jones, the originally made

128
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 1: that comment about this French Fries and he said the

129
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 1: same thing about the the French toast, and he called

130
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 1: him freedom Toast and freedom Fries. He the Freness did

131
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 1: not join in originally in Diract campaign, and but then

132
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: he saw because it touched him firsthand when he went

133
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: to a funeral of a rain who was killed from

134
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: Camp ll June. He saw firsthand the pain that family experienced.

135
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,119
Speaker 1: So you know, here's a real human being whose heart

136
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 1: I mean, he's I saw over the years because I

137
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 1: unfortunately had to deal with a lot of members of

138
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 1: Congress whom some wouldn't stand up for us, but they

139
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 1: they'd followed his lead on putting some of the faces

140
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 1: of the service members who are killed in their district.

141
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 1: In Congressman Jones, that really became that weighed deeply on

142
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:50,679
Speaker 1: his heart, and he put all the U photographs of

143
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,839
Speaker 1: this fallen heroes, and I think it really meant a

144
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 1: big deal. And he tried to make sure, as you

145
00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: mentioned in that those marines and soldiers that were fighting

146
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,319
Speaker 1: on the front lines had the proper equipment. But then

147
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:07,560
Speaker 1: he's he's formed alliances with people try and say, hey,

148
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,199
Speaker 1: why are we funding something that these forever wars that

149
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 1: have no end, that are just taking lives and draining

150
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 1: US money, spending trillions of dollars. Meanwhile, he knew that

151
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:22,240
Speaker 1: there was other threats of China, Korea, Iran, Russia that

152
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,320
Speaker 1: you know, we are kind of ignoring on a large

153
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: scale that can threaten our our way of life as Americans.

154
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 1: And he's just a great man, a great example, somebody

155
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:36,319
Speaker 1: I looked to for leadership and mentorship. And it's it's

156
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:41,199
Speaker 1: sad to see he'll be dearly missed. I know his

157
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: funerals is Thursday there in Greenville St. Peter's Church. But

158
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 1: he's he's a wish other leaders. I mean, how many

159
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,680
Speaker 1: congressmen are women? Do you know that truly take something

160
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 1: public they could be their end and they stand up

161
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 1: in boldly and not knowing which way it too. And

162
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 1: that's what he did in our case, and he didn't

163
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 1: the case of the Laura Pantano and James Wyrick who

164
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 1: stood up against the common out of marine Corps and

165
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 1: Thomas Fon Jones was a true secret. He was man

166
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: of faith that really used that faith to take that

167
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 1: this kind of courageous stand. So we have so much

168
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 1: to him. Yeah, I would agree. And when you're talking

169
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,439
Speaker 1: about that, it's kind of looked at as a negative

170
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 1: when you say I was wrong. I think especially in politics,

171
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 1: because you see it in every election where they're like,

172
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 1: in you said this, but in ten you said this,

173
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 1: and there's nothing wrong with saying, you know, with new information,

174
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 1: my position has changed. And I think that most politicians

175
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 1: are very afraid of doing that because a big thing

176
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 1: is consistency. You're even seeing it with the Democrats who

177
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 1: are running right now in the next presidential election. They're

178
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 1: you know, they're like Corey Booker, you were for this,

179
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 1: but now for this. And I remember when Obama came

180
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: out and he said that I believe it was regarding Libya.

181
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:03,079
Speaker 1: He's saying that we got it wrong. And even Vladimir

182
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:06,320
Speaker 1: Putin came out and was like Obama, he's a good man.

183
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,680
Speaker 1: He said the right thing. It was difficult to change course.

184
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 1: It was an interesting moment because, as you said, you

185
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 1: very rarely hear a politician make a comment like that. Yeah,

186
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 1: especially about a war in Iraq, you know, because people,

187
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 1: as as he said, are coming back to his district

188
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 1: losing limbs, you know. And yeah, it's a tough thing

189
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: to say that that I had a part in this

190
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:32,560
Speaker 1: voting this way, and I'm going to change course and

191
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 1: make up for this and how I vote in the future.

192
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,560
Speaker 1: And I think just showed his character. And like I said,

193
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 1: I was a fan of his prior to learning about

194
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,679
Speaker 1: what happened with the Mars sock case, and now hearing

195
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,440
Speaker 1: about this from you, you know it it makes me

196
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 1: admire them even more. And it's just it really is

197
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 1: a shame that this guy passed before his time. Yeah,

198
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 1: and you're right, he to reinforce some of the things

199
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 1: I said earlier when he called those things freedom fries

200
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,080
Speaker 1: and freedom to host. He was doing that to mock

201
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,199
Speaker 1: and antagonize and get other people in the US Congress

202
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,320
Speaker 1: on board, like, hey, the French backed out, we need

203
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 1: everybody's full support on this. And so he was, he

204
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 1: was doubling down. But then he saw you know, the

205
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 1: family members who were you know, weeping and obtained and

206
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 1: experienced that, and that's when he really took that to heart.

207
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 1: And I think as long as somebody can define and

208
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,680
Speaker 1: defend what, you know, why they've changed this position. And

209
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: for him, in our case, it wasn't a one time fire,

210
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: and we weren't even his constituents. None of us hailed

211
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:36,960
Speaker 1: from the third District in North Carolina. But and then

212
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,319
Speaker 1: when the case ended and some of us were getting

213
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,719
Speaker 1: pushed out of the Marine Corps, none of us were

214
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 1: even stationed there. But he for eleven and a half

215
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 1: years calling me, you know this last summer saying, Fred,

216
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: this is the last thing I do. I mean, that's

217
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 1: that's the kind of leader that you want in the military.

218
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: And somebody that's like, I don't care it is completely

219
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 1: in it. And that's what they teach us, you know,

220
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 1: when you go through a close battle package, when they

221
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 1: say that, like every cell in your body has to

222
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 1: before winning that war. And that's what I wish our

223
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 1: military leaders right now. We could be like, hey, they

224
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,760
Speaker 1: could have that mindset of a congress of Walter B. Jones.

225
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, I'll die for this, and and

226
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 1: that's what he said to me. He's like, if it's

227
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: the last thing I'd do, And I think in his

228
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 1: mind I'm assuming this. I'm not trying to make something

229
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 1: fictional here. But he said that to me, and I

230
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 1: think he probably in his mind because he shortly after

231
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:31,200
Speaker 1: saying that he was starting to get treated in uh September,

232
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 1: I think he couldn't. He realized that it could be

233
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 1: the last thing he did, and he he saw that

234
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 1: and he told me, said Fred, And it took me

235
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: fourteen years, you know too, to clear the names of

236
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 1: those two Oscrey pilots that were flying at that time

237
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 1: in two thousand. It was an experimental aircraft, the Osprey

238
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 1: was and they were on a training mission out in Arizona.

239
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 1: A crash and you know, nineteen Marines were killed in

240
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:59,719
Speaker 1: the Marine Corps laying that on pilot error. And you know, he,

241
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:04,000
Speaker 1: for fourteen years just did not let go. And that's

242
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 1: you know, I really wish people had had that kind

243
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 1: of conviction. You know, when they see something wrong that's done.

244
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 1: You know, so many people think it's, you know, let's

245
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,840
Speaker 1: just forget this, But not not with this man. He had.

246
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 1: He truly had principles. And there's a lot of people

247
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 1: that say, hey, I disagree with him on this, and

248
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,080
Speaker 1: he didn't mind going against the grain but they're like

249
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 1: on these issues, especially protecting the frontline foot soldiers in

250
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:30,240
Speaker 1: the rank and file. You know, he he was adamant.

251
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 1: He wasn't doing that for any kind of show. That

252
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 1: definitely takes a lot of character to change your mind

253
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 1: on a big issue like that. Admit that you made

254
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 1: a mistake, but it's so important. I mean, sanity has

255
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 1: to prevail at some point. Yes, And I will mentioned

256
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 1: you to other cases that Laria Pantano he defended very adamantly.

257
00:14:55,840 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 1: And Laria Pantano was a enlisted Marine who became a sniper.

258
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 1: And then I was working on Wall Street as a

259
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 1: trader up in New York City, and then eleven happened.

260
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 1: He went and tried to get back in and became

261
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 1: an officer, and then he was in Felujah and killed

262
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 1: these two Iraqis who had were advancing towards him, and

263
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 1: they charged. He was the very first marine it was

264
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:30,200
Speaker 1: charged in the Iraq War of homicide. And you know,

265
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 1: Walter Jones stood up for him as the first stood

266
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 1: up for me. And then when another case you may

267
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 1: be familiar with the Marines that urinated on the Taliban,

268
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 1: the dead Taliban soldiers, there was a marine lawyer that

269
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 1: took the unprecedented step and took a lot of courage.

270
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 1: He saw the email traffic going back and forth, and

271
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: one of them involved the comment on the Marine Corps

272
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 1: telling the Convenient Authority that he wanted those marines crushed,

273
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 1: and that Marine officer, who was a major at the time,

274
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 1: James Wyrick, uh, you know, went to the press and said,

275
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 1: you know, it's this unlawful command influence. You know, you

276
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 1: may disagree with what they want, and you may feel

277
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 1: that way, but you can't influence the convenient Authority. And um,

278
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 1: you know I personally contacted uh James Wirek and I said,

279
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 1: you know, here's somebody that you know will defend and

280
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 1: he has a mindset for the truth. And you know,

281
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 1: James Wyreck was able to contact Walter Jones, and Walter

282
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 1: Jones adamantly defended and he said it on the floor

283
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:37,280
Speaker 1: of the House Representatives at a congressional hearing involving General

284
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 1: Amos that you know, why did he uh, why did

285
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 1: you make those remarks? So I mean he's you know,

286
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 1: when there's a man that has a heart for truth

287
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 1: and justice and those men and women fighting on the

288
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 1: front lines, So I just I love the man death

289
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 1: and really, you know, great for the peace and comfort

290
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 1: for his wife Joanne and his whole family and his

291
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:02,200
Speaker 1: staff that have endured this this last year, and very

292
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,919
Speaker 1: sorry to hear him pass this Sunday. I also was

293
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 1: pretty sure he had some military service in his background,

294
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:10,959
Speaker 1: so I just looked this up. He did. He was

295
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 1: in the North Carolina National Guard. Yeah, from nineteen sixty

296
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:18,640
Speaker 1: seven to nineteen seventy one. But yeah, we're gonna get

297
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 1: over to b K. But I do appreciate you coming

298
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,800
Speaker 1: on because this is just something that I wanted the

299
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 1: audience to be aware of. And you know, this is

300
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 1: a guy who definitely was a fighter for you and

301
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 1: and for for others, as you just talked about. So

302
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 1: we'll definitely have you back on though soon for a

303
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,359
Speaker 1: more in depth discussion on China and other than I'm

304
00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:40,399
Speaker 1: getting my highlighter out now, thanks, and I'm not sitting

305
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 1: from my computer. But I'll say this about cons from Jones,

306
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,720
Speaker 1: he never once even downplayed He's like, you know, I've

307
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 1: never been there, but he never once ever mentioned, you

308
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 1: know that he serves, So I knew that you you've

309
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,399
Speaker 1: looked that up, but you know, he he was somebody

310
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 1: who was so humble and had that spirit of leaders

311
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 1: This this incredible man. You know, he deserves an award

312
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,119
Speaker 1: himself for what he's done. Thanks for sharing some of

313
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: these memories, Fred. I'm sure it'll actually mean a lot

314
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:10,879
Speaker 1: to his family too if they hear this. Yeah, yeah,

315
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:15,719
Speaker 1: thank you. I'll send the podcast link to his office

316
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 1: and hopefully they will be able to all listen appreciate it.

317
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,119
Speaker 1: Thank you very much again, guys, no no problem, Thank you,

318
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 1: Thanks Fred, Jackie and the And then this is probably

319
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,359
Speaker 1: the part of the podcast where they'll want to shut

320
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:35,160
Speaker 1: it off because I'm sure to get all over the place.

321
00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:39,640
Speaker 1: So let's let's get over to him, because it's gonna

322
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,879
Speaker 1: take a totally different turn with him on as usual.

323
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,440
Speaker 1: So it's it's funny, as I was saying, b K,

324
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 1: we just had like a heartfelt discussion with Marine Corps

325
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 1: Major Fred Galvin about the unfortunate passing of Congressman Walter Jones,

326
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,119
Speaker 1: and he was like, I'll send this over to the

327
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:00,720
Speaker 1: family of Congressman Jones. But I was thinking, like this

328
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,400
Speaker 1: part of the podcast, they'll they'll probably want to turn

329
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:05,680
Speaker 1: off because I have no idea where we're going to

330
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 1: go from here. I'll be good. I promise I'll be good.

331
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 1: You don't have to be be yourself, man. But UH,

332
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 1: back on the podcast for the first time in a

333
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 1: while is b K. Most of our audience knows who

334
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 1: you are, host of the b K podcast, UH World

335
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 1: News with b K, which you record every week. Former

336
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,200
Speaker 1: Air Force pj H. You've written for the site before.

337
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,399
Speaker 1: You also have Patreon up Patreon dot com slash b

338
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 1: K actual. And the reason we're having you on is

339
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 1: because this has happened multiple times. But you've been suspended

340
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:40,280
Speaker 1: from Twitter. You're you're still suspended and are are on

341
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,119
Speaker 1: a different account right now. But I think this is

342
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:47,239
Speaker 1: the longest you've been suspended, right, absolutely, So I have

343
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 1: to clarify you and I'm not I've been permanently banned.

344
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:54,160
Speaker 1: On that permanently banned. When they stay suspended, Yeah, when

345
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,399
Speaker 1: they stay suspended, that means you're you're done. There's no

346
00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,879
Speaker 1: I don't know why they even call it suspended because

347
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 1: if you're not coming back, like the Twitter death penalty.

348
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 1: So we have to hear the whole story on this.

349
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 1: Do you know what you actually did to go? No?

350
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,400
Speaker 1: I do not, And so Ian and Jack. I'll talk

351
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,239
Speaker 1: to you guys through so I've been I was. I

352
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:17,879
Speaker 1: was basically how working me on Twitter is. I was

353
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 1: suspended three times in other words where they said, hey,

354
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,880
Speaker 1: you're you're being punished, okay, And then the fourth time

355
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:26,920
Speaker 1: I was permanently banned. Okay. So I'll tell you about

356
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:28,920
Speaker 1: what happened. The first and and and all of them

357
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:32,720
Speaker 1: are total bullshit. So the first time I got a

358
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 1: twenty four hour suspension from Twitter was when the actor

359
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 1: Matthew Modine, you guys know from Full Metal Jacket, right,

360
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 1: private joker, Yeah, yeah, So he said something stupid about politics,

361
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 1: and I just replied, choke yourself, you know, like in

362
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:54,160
Speaker 1: the movie Full Metal Jacket, his character joke yourself. That

363
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,399
Speaker 1: was enough to get me suspended for twenty four hours.

364
00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 1: That was the first one, okay. And and when I

365
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 1: don't know if you guys knows, but when Twitter suspends you,

366
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,760
Speaker 1: they send you the offending tweak, so you know what

367
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:06,440
Speaker 1: you did, right, And so I was like I knew

368
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,320
Speaker 1: it was that one. I'm like, okay, fine. The second

369
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 1: time was also a twenty four hour suspension, and that

370
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 1: was when that Bob Woodward book Fear came out. He's

371
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 1: the former Washington Post journalist. Uh In. Any way, I

372
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:21,600
Speaker 1: was laughing about it and I said, I commented, I

373
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 1: don't even know whose feet I commented on, but I

374
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:25,960
Speaker 1: commented on somebody's feet. They were talking about the Bob

375
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,240
Speaker 1: Ward word book, and I said, man, you will never

376
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 1: go broke selling crap to the tarts and the Resistance.

377
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:38,439
Speaker 1: I didn't even say retards. I said tarts. Okay. That

378
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:42,160
Speaker 1: that too got me a twenty four hour suspension. Then

379
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:46,360
Speaker 1: my third was when Chris Hayes from MSNBC, who I

380
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 1: I really like giving ship Tom and you guys, that's

381
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,119
Speaker 1: your point, and you guys, I should point out here

382
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 1: that I'm never like abusive, like calling, like saying you

383
00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:55,639
Speaker 1: should die or you should kill you. I don't do

384
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 1: any of that, Okay. I just crack on people, rag

385
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 1: on people. So on. Chris, Chris Hayes had this guy

386
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,720
Speaker 1: and maybe you've seen him around the Twitter jack. His

387
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:07,880
Speaker 1: name is Sean mcawee. He is a true open borders guy.

388
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 1: His his Twitter bios is abolished ice. He's one of these, yes,

389
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:16,400
Speaker 1: basically like far left lunatic. Anyway, So Chris Hayes had

390
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,000
Speaker 1: sewn mcawee on his podcast and treated him like an

391
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 1: honors honored guest. So I commented on Chris Hayes's tweet.

392
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,680
Speaker 1: I was like, Hey, Chris, are you and your new

393
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:30,160
Speaker 1: best friend open borders lunatic sean ever going to talk

394
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 1: about the longest of people murdered by the illegal immigrants? Here,

395
00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,160
Speaker 1: here's the latest one to get you started. And I

396
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,400
Speaker 1: sent an accompanying news story about the latest one. Well,

397
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 1: apparently it's calling somebody a lunatic is also a no go.

398
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 1: So I got suspended for that for a week now,

399
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:49,840
Speaker 1: barren mind. In the background of all this, I routinely

400
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:54,800
Speaker 1: see people calling for death of people constantly, the famous

401
00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,840
Speaker 1: example being like, you know, Peter Fonda, the actor famously

402
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 1: suggested that Baron Trump should be locked in a cage

403
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,119
Speaker 1: with pedophiles, implying he should be raped. Remember that, and

404
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 1: not only did he nothing happen to him, he didn't

405
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,920
Speaker 1: even lose his blue check mark. Okay, And I think

406
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:11,919
Speaker 1: I think one of the big ones too, to be honest,

407
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 1: that everybody knows it's high profile, was Kathy Griffin with

408
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,159
Speaker 1: the trumpet she didn't get to and I mean Trump

409
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,919
Speaker 1: himself threatens to like new entire countries on his Twitter,

410
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 1: And I mean, I was gonna give you guys another

411
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,600
Speaker 1: example real quick. And it's actually a guy that I've

412
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 1: been in touch with before. So this guy, Jonathan Frank's

413
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:33,880
Speaker 1: is the press person for montell Um Williams. And we've

414
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 1: had Montell Williams on the podcast, so like I've talked

415
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:39,400
Speaker 1: with Jonathan Frank's on the phone. He's definitely a more

416
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,560
Speaker 1: left wing guy in his tweets and likes to argue

417
00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 1: with people similar to you sometimes. But this I thought

418
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 1: was completely out of line. Um, this kid, c J. Pearson,

419
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,160
Speaker 1: you may know who's this conservative on Twitter, but he's

420
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,199
Speaker 1: he's literally a sixteen year old kid. He's a sixteen

421
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:56,639
Speaker 1: year old black kid who's you know, like prominent in

422
00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 1: the movement. I think partially honestly because of his race,

423
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 1: because or like this kid knows what's up, you know.

424
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:06,200
Speaker 1: So anyway, he's he's on Twitter discussing his point of

425
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:09,639
Speaker 1: view and he's he's a sixteen year old all right.

426
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,120
Speaker 1: So Jonathan Frank's a middle aged man. The other day

427
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 1: tweeted to him in response to something I don't know

428
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 1: what he wrote. Whatever, c J, You're a media whore

429
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 1: who can ever quite manage to figure out who you're fluffing.

430
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,959
Speaker 1: It's kind of sad, is that. Honestly, they're that appropriate

431
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 1: for a middle aged man? It tweeted a sixteen year old,

432
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 1: and how come he's not? So there was a there

433
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:33,439
Speaker 1: was an editor at The Atlantic today tweeting out about

434
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 1: this Esquire cover story that's about teenage males and I

435
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:40,120
Speaker 1: haven't read the article. I haven't read the article yet,

436
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:41,959
Speaker 1: but I think it's about, you know, the the issue

437
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,439
Speaker 1: we're having with young men in America and uh. And

438
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 1: she's all like, oh great, just what we need another

439
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 1: article about the white male experience. And it's like, honey,

440
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,680
Speaker 1: you're an editor at the Atlantic, like you're supposed to

441
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:57,280
Speaker 1: lead the conversation in an adult, mature fashion and not

442
00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 1: like trying to bully a teenager. Condude. I dude, I've

443
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 1: seen that all over Twitter today. Is this this rabid

444
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 1: hatred of that Esquire cover because it has a young

445
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 1: white man on the cover, and fucking people are really bold,

446
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 1: really boldly saying like this is garbage, like making puke faces.

447
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:20,399
Speaker 1: I'm like, wow, you really, what fucking guy? Fucking uh,

448
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,240
Speaker 1: you know, bang you out and then never called you again.

449
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 1: Fucking feminist editor, the Jonathan Franks one. To be honest,

450
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:30,240
Speaker 1: They'll just really stood out to me because could you

451
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,159
Speaker 1: imagine that that only happens on Twitter? Could you ever

452
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 1: imagine a scenario in the street. We're like a forty

453
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,360
Speaker 1: five year old man calls a sixteen year old boy

454
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,639
Speaker 1: a media whore, and that's okay. Yeah, I just I

455
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:45,399
Speaker 1: just don't get how you you know, saying to another

456
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:49,200
Speaker 1: adult male, choke yourself, that's way off limits, But attacking

457
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:53,640
Speaker 1: an underage boy that's fine. That what are what are

458
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,119
Speaker 1: the terms? I just I really don't And Jonathan Franks,

459
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 1: by the way, is another verified guy on Twitter. Well,

460
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:02,720
Speaker 1: the nice the nice thing about my three previous suspensions

461
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:06,439
Speaker 1: was that they at least Twitter emailed me a copy

462
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 1: of the tweet that they said, Okay, this is hateful

463
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:12,240
Speaker 1: or you're you're you're encouraging self harm and they choke

464
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,439
Speaker 1: yourself comments anyway, so so they let me know what

465
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 1: I did. So anyway, this last one just really quick,

466
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 1: you guys. The last one, I woke I went to bed,

467
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 1: I woke up the next morning and my account was vaporized.

468
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:27,160
Speaker 1: No emails from Twitter, no nothing, And they didn't tell

469
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 1: me why on this one. They just said your accounts

470
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,359
Speaker 1: now permanently suspended. And the only thing I could think

471
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 1: of was I was having a back and forth with

472
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:38,240
Speaker 1: somebody and got making logical points, not attacking them on

473
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:41,639
Speaker 1: a personal level. Nothing like that. And as you price

474
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:45,199
Speaker 1: probably know, that big irritating things is like, look, argue

475
00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:48,640
Speaker 1: for the wall against the wall. That's fine. I'm ambiguous

476
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,240
Speaker 1: on the wall. But don't tell me that walls don't work,

477
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:54,400
Speaker 1: because then you just sound like an idiot. Okay, physical barriers,

478
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:57,359
Speaker 1: of course work. Everybody knows they work. Jack, You've seen

479
00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,440
Speaker 1: walls over in the Middle East. It's so when somebody

480
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 1: says walls don't work, it makes me want to, like,

481
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 1: you know, tear my hair out. Well, you do get

482
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:09,399
Speaker 1: into a more nuanced conversation there about the effectiveness of it,

483
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:12,840
Speaker 1: but I understand your point, right, So so I'm talking.

484
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:14,960
Speaker 1: This girl is saying walls don't work, and in her

485
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 1: biography she describes herself as both disabled and a bibliophile.

486
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 1: So one of my tweets, and this is the only

487
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:28,119
Speaker 1: thing I can even think of back to her, was well, well, lady,

488
00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,359
Speaker 1: you know the United States Customs and Border Protection and

489
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 1: the Department of Homeland Security have both said on many

490
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,840
Speaker 1: many occasions that physical barriers are very effective wherever they've tried.

491
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:42,880
Speaker 1: But I'm sure you the disabled bibliophile no better than

492
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:48,040
Speaker 1: they do. Okay, again, what is written? What is written

493
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 1: in her bio about what I was repeating, right, But

494
00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:53,560
Speaker 1: they could easily be like this guy attacking disabled people.

495
00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:57,359
Speaker 1: That's yes, And that's the only thing I can even

496
00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 1: think of again, because they just vaporized my account without

497
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 1: telling me what the offense was. Correct, I'm gonna say,

498
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:10,560
Speaker 1: but I mean, Brian, Brian, tell me what the funk

499
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,840
Speaker 1: is going on on that entire platform that it seems

500
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 1: like unless you're I have like a little hammer and

501
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 1: sickle in your Twitter profile like your persona non gratta

502
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:26,399
Speaker 1: over there, dude. It's it's amazing, Jack, I watch you know,

503
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:28,880
Speaker 1: as you know, I keep tabs on the Woke Vet crew,

504
00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 1: those who haven't blocked me by now, and they abused

505
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:34,800
Speaker 1: me a lot. And I look at what they say,

506
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,680
Speaker 1: and they tell people to fucking die all the time,

507
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:41,120
Speaker 1: fucking you're a piece of ship, all that stuff. Nothing

508
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 1: nothing happens to the Jack. You and I have joked

509
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 1: many times in the past where as an experiment, I

510
00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 1: was going to create a super woke VET persona you know,

511
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 1: take all the uh, you know, the resistance. It's hard

512
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,160
Speaker 1: to do. It's hard to do because I bet you

513
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:59,120
Speaker 1: I would get thousands of followers with you, like a

514
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:02,000
Speaker 1: veteran who's you would, But it's hard to do because

515
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 1: so many of those people are already like a parody

516
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 1: of themselves. It's like this is like a cardboard cutout

517
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 1: character that was created in a Madison Avenue boardroom and

518
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:17,960
Speaker 1: then spilled into social media in order to propagandize people.

519
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 1: It's it's pretty crazy, man. And I see Jack where

520
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,640
Speaker 1: you know, you know, listen, you and I have had many,

521
00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:28,120
Speaker 1: many long debates, and the way people talk about you

522
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:30,320
Speaker 1: cracks me up. I'm like, holy sh it, if that's

523
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,400
Speaker 1: what they're shame fund Jack, oh, that they think I'm

524
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 1: like a Nazi and ship. I actually saw one of

525
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 1: my favorite woke vets and I'm not going to say

526
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:42,480
Speaker 1: who it was, but this morning he was commenting on

527
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 1: the rally last night and he was like, ah, yes,

528
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,480
Speaker 1: look at all of the brown shirts supporting the fascist

529
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:49,920
Speaker 1: and I'm like, dude, if we lived in true fascism,

530
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 1: you would not be able to go on the internet

531
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 1: and say what a fascist the fascist leader was without consequences.

532
00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 1: You can do that. Okay, nothing is happening. The dark

533
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:02,040
Speaker 1: veil of not see Germany is not descending on America.

534
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:05,920
Speaker 1: Just shut up, get out of here. I don't know.

535
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:10,120
Speaker 1: I'm all worked up now, you guys. It's it's bizarre. Um,

536
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 1: I don't really get it. I mean, when I first

537
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 1: got out of the army and I went to college

538
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:17,720
Speaker 1: and I saw some of these guys who now we

539
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:20,400
Speaker 1: would describe them as woke vets um, even though that

540
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:22,680
Speaker 1: wasn't a term at the time, but I figured they

541
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:24,760
Speaker 1: were just doing it to get laid um, which I

542
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 1: can kind of understand. But now it's to the point

543
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 1: where it's like, what the fuck cool aid? Have you

544
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:34,720
Speaker 1: people been drinking? Well that too, but also Jack, I

545
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:38,960
Speaker 1: mean I've seen Okay, say, if you say, let's let's

546
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 1: assume your premise is correct that they're doing it to

547
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 1: get laid I mean, have you seen the chicks in

548
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 1: the woke community there exactly? Or really super hot? Is

549
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 1: what I'm just trying to say. Okay, come on, Well,

550
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 1: I was speaking to college campus life. Um as far

551
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 1: as like this whole new iteration of Twitter woke veteran.

552
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 1: That's that just mystifying to me. I can't really like

553
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 1: you need like fucking Charles Darwin to go in there

554
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 1: with his sketch book and like write the origin of

555
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 1: the species or something, because I don't understand it. Well,

556
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 1: we are, we're definitely going backwards in the way we

557
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 1: just we're trying to group each other into various races

558
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 1: and ethnicities and just gender, and we're just grouping each

559
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 1: other along these lines. You just become our default identities.

560
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 1: And that's not what was supposed to happen. I don't

561
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 1: know if you guys recalled, but what was supposed to

562
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 1: happen was we were all going to be equal. And

563
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:35,560
Speaker 1: that sounds like a pipe dream. Now. Yeah, I don't know, man.

564
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,080
Speaker 1: I I I every day think about just pulling the

565
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 1: plug on Twitter myself because it's just like it's so toxic.

566
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 1: And I mean, even if you are a left winger,

567
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,200
Speaker 1: or even if you are woke and you know you're

568
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:49,720
Speaker 1: you're a member of the Ministry of Vice and Virtue

569
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 1: of wokastan, uh, it's still it's just so toxic. I

570
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 1: think it's just so bad for anyone's mental health to

571
00:31:56,440 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 1: be on that platform. Yeah, I agree. If it wasn't. Actually,

572
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 1: and if it wasn't, it's not a place for nuanced

573
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 1: debate because it's hard to string together, you know. It

574
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:08,400
Speaker 1: takes a while to flesh out ideas. It can take

575
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 1: like hours of talking or long articles and a platform

576
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:15,200
Speaker 1: that's like two characters or whatever it is now, it

577
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 1: just doesn't really available for that if I didn't have

578
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 1: the podcast, Like, really, the only way I market the

579
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 1: podcast is through Twitter, so and now Instagram. I just

580
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 1: got on Instagram, by the way, a BK. Actual, Twitter

581
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 1: is a place where I feel like a lot of

582
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 1: people who are mentally ill. I can't say this to

583
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 1: make fun of people, but a lot of these woke

584
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 1: folks they strike me like seriously, they're mentally ill, like

585
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:39,959
Speaker 1: they have mental health issues. But then they get on

586
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 1: Twitter and they all find each other and it becomes

587
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 1: like confirmation bias, and they're like, we're the normal ones

588
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 1: and all of you people who want to live in

589
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 1: a in a diverse country where we all get along

590
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 1: with one another, you're the ones who are wrong. You're

591
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 1: the ones who are bad. Yeah. I don't know, man,

592
00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:58,240
Speaker 1: I I just think. I don't know if it's I

593
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:01,120
Speaker 1: don't know if it's something they really believe, eve, or

594
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 1: if they are just doing it to get that dopamine

595
00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:05,720
Speaker 1: hit for the like I mean, Jack, you and I

596
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:09,640
Speaker 1: have talked about how social media has been engineered to

597
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 1: get those morals. It's not just it's not just it's

598
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,600
Speaker 1: not just something for ships and giggles. They figured out

599
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:19,000
Speaker 1: what the human brain likes and what makes you addict

600
00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 1: to do a certain thing, and it's it's science. So

601
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 1: I don't know if these guys really believe all the

602
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 1: crap they you know, slop around, or if this is

603
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:29,840
Speaker 1: just something because they know they'll get a lot of

604
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,840
Speaker 1: likes and that makes them feel good. It's everybody, I mean,

605
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:35,960
Speaker 1: because to be fair, this is definitely not just like

606
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,160
Speaker 1: a left wing thing. It's not There's certain things that

607
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,960
Speaker 1: you could say on Twitter and you know will blow up.

608
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 1: You know. I saw, for example, recent when I could

609
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:48,000
Speaker 1: think of was Tommy Larren was in that debate with

610
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:51,160
Speaker 1: Nicki Minaj over things that Tommy Warren said, and the

611
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:54,280
Speaker 1: debate ended with you know, Nicki Minaj saying that Tommy Larren,

612
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 1: uh you know, and why it was her same basically,

613
00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:00,719
Speaker 1: why do you act like your ancestors founded America? And

614
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 1: then uh, Tommy Learn responded, my ancestors did, were the

615
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:08,760
Speaker 1: founders of America. And from that Tommy Learn started trending

616
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,600
Speaker 1: on Twitter. And you know, saying something like that if

617
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,320
Speaker 1: you're a prominent figure, is going to make you trend

618
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:17,480
Speaker 1: on there as opposed to having a rational disguised and

619
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,240
Speaker 1: it's just you know, and it's probably that huge dopamine

620
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:22,560
Speaker 1: I'm sure for her too, to see my name is

621
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:26,640
Speaker 1: trending on Twitter because I said something outrageous, you know, yeah,

622
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:28,880
Speaker 1: and absolutely, and you know what, she should know, or

623
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,839
Speaker 1: she should be smart enough to know that the now

624
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 1: which we have to consider the optics of the pretty white,

625
00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:39,359
Speaker 1: blonde woman arguing with a walk woman of color, that's

626
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:41,480
Speaker 1: always going to end badly for you as far as

627
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:44,080
Speaker 1: Twitter is concerned. I don't know, but I feel like

628
00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 1: this is how her and other people and culture and

629
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:50,080
Speaker 1: all them like make their living. Is saying out it

630
00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:53,240
Speaker 1: is you know, if she if she didn't say outrageous stuff,

631
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,080
Speaker 1: we wouldn't be talking about her. In fact that I'm

632
00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 1: talking about her right now, and it annoys me that

633
00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 1: I'm talking about her right actually, but you know, there's

634
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:04,799
Speaker 1: the media. The difference in between the two, the two

635
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,400
Speaker 1: versions of what you're talking about in I think, is

636
00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:11,640
Speaker 1: one draws universal condemnation and one draws universal praise. You know, so,

637
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:16,840
Speaker 1: no matter how silly that whack job Alexandria Ocastio Cortez,

638
00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 1: no matter how silly she acts, it doesn't matter because

639
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:22,279
Speaker 1: the media will always have her back no matter what

640
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:25,400
Speaker 1: stupid shit she says, you know, so, like and Coulter System,

641
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:27,480
Speaker 1: she's an easy target. Everybody's gonna pile on to her.

642
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:30,799
Speaker 1: I think the craziest thing I saw on Twitter and

643
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:35,240
Speaker 1: social media of the past few days was, I mean literally,

644
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:38,400
Speaker 1: the President made a joke about the trail of tears,

645
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:43,279
Speaker 1: and then his son, uh put it up on Instagram,

646
00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:48,000
Speaker 1: Donald Trump Jr. And wrote I love my President savage

647
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,800
Speaker 1: like it's it's pretty. I mean, I don't mean to

648
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:54,360
Speaker 1: laugh at it, because I actually don't think there's anything

649
00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:56,759
Speaker 1: funny about making a joke about the trail of tears.

650
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 1: Why is that any more acceptable than making a joke

651
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 1: about the how I mean, it's the same, the same

652
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 1: exact thing. You know, what's what's what's the old? What's

653
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:08,719
Speaker 1: the old? Stand up comedy rule that comedy equals tragedy

654
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:11,399
Speaker 1: plus time. You know what I'm saying, that's the old

655
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:13,680
Speaker 1: the comedians rule. So you take something sad, you can

656
00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:15,839
Speaker 1: joke about it as long as enough time. I would

657
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 1: understand if if a professional comedian was joking about if

658
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,680
Speaker 1: a professional comedian joked about the trail of tears, I mean,

659
00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:25,960
Speaker 1: it would be what it is. But we literally the president.

660
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 1: You know, it's and and the President does it for

661
00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:31,360
Speaker 1: the same reason Tommy Laron does it. He knows that

662
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:35,560
Speaker 1: the sketzer response it gets people outraged. You know, I

663
00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:38,160
Speaker 1: even think you probably saw the recent thing on Pete

664
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,480
Speaker 1: Hegseeth on Fox Fox and Friends said that he doesn't

665
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,000
Speaker 1: wash his hands and he's never washed his hands in

666
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,279
Speaker 1: ten years. Why am I SUPs to care about this?

667
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:49,160
Speaker 1: But it's trending all over the place, and I'm sure

668
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:53,040
Speaker 1: he said it in mind saying watch after I say this,

669
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:55,640
Speaker 1: everybody's gonna be talking about it. And everybody is talking

670
00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 1: about and I agree with you, I don't care, but

671
00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:03,239
Speaker 1: this is you know, a nuanced discussion on China doesn't trend. No, no,

672
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 1: it does not. And you know what cracks me up

673
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 1: is like so I'm watching. Did you guys watch the

674
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:10,680
Speaker 1: Trump rally last night? I was watching because it's just

675
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:13,160
Speaker 1: it was like, it was like, and I commented on Twitter,

676
00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:14,839
Speaker 1: I was like, God, this brings back. It was just

677
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:19,439
Speaker 1: like campaign. You know, we had the protesters, a lot

678
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 1: of protesters, you know, for the first time in a while.

679
00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 1: So all the protesters are getting you know, ejected, and

680
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 1: then the crowd starts chanting USA. There's a couple of fights.

681
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 1: I was like, this is great, you know, I love it.

682
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:33,719
Speaker 1: Think about how boring it's gonna be after he's gone.

683
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 1: We're gonna have like we're gonna like boring as Mike

684
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:40,839
Speaker 1: Pence or Kamala Harris. God, it is true. I mean,

685
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:43,120
Speaker 1: how are you ever You're never gonna talk Trump? No?

686
00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:45,719
Speaker 1: They well, I mean people people will still try to

687
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:49,040
Speaker 1: keep up this frenzy the hatred, but even the resistance. Dude,

688
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:51,160
Speaker 1: you can't hate on Mike Pence the way you hate

689
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:52,840
Speaker 1: on Trump, you know what I mean. It's gonna be

690
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:56,839
Speaker 1: hard from the match that level of sustained outrage over

691
00:37:56,880 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 1: a boring guy like Mike Penn, even if they if

692
00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:03,600
Speaker 1: they run a white male like Joe Biden or something like, Yeah,

693
00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:06,400
Speaker 1: they'll be hatred. But yeah, you can't keep the sustained

694
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:09,719
Speaker 1: outrage going. Well. And it's funny you bring up Joe

695
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:13,759
Speaker 1: Biden because I'm already reading scuttle But as far as

696
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:17,759
Speaker 1: the left wing Democratic Party activiss saying, you know what, yeah,

697
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:20,160
Speaker 1: we all like Uncle Joe, but let's be real here,

698
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:22,120
Speaker 1: this is an eighty year old white man and that's

699
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:27,120
Speaker 1: not exactly our freaking topic right now, and they're just

700
00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:29,880
Speaker 1: not really all about it. So even though he pulls

701
00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:32,879
Speaker 1: far and away better than any other Democrat, I would

702
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,680
Speaker 1: actually be surprised to be declares he's gonna run for president.

703
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:37,520
Speaker 1: I don't think he's going to. Yeah, I don't think

704
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:39,880
Speaker 1: the d n C can can run a white male anymore.

705
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:42,799
Speaker 1: I think those days are just over. They are over.

706
00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:45,960
Speaker 1: It'll be Corey Booker and his uh and Corey Booker

707
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 1: and then the Secret Service left to accompany him on

708
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:52,280
Speaker 1: his like two am missions down to you know, club

709
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:54,880
Speaker 1: club Fat Singers or wherever he sneaks off to in

710
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:57,040
Speaker 1: the middle of the night. I'm just kidding, Corey, come on,

711
00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:59,759
Speaker 1: all right, I know you're gay, brother, just come out.

712
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,640
Speaker 1: I actually I'm not so sure about that because I

713
00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:04,759
Speaker 1: don't know if you remember a couple of years ago, well,

714
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:06,560
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, the big thing that came

715
00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 1: out on him, and I think his opponent random, was

716
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,600
Speaker 1: that Corey Booker was like hook hooking up with some stripper,

717
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:15,520
Speaker 1: a female stripper in New Jersey, which it seems like, yeah,

718
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:17,320
Speaker 1: you can probably you can probably find it if you google,

719
00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:21,279
Speaker 1: like Corey Booker, that's your coat. So I really don't

720
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:25,280
Speaker 1: I will find I I honestly, you know, I personally,

721
00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:27,080
Speaker 1: I could care less what the guy is. I don't

722
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,280
Speaker 1: think it should make a difference in him running for president.

723
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 1: I think people attack him because he's a single guy,

724
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:34,480
Speaker 1: and it's like the status quo is you have to

725
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:37,680
Speaker 1: be married to a woman. You know. I but I don't.

726
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:39,120
Speaker 1: I don't think he's gay. I mean, maybe he is,

727
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 1: maybe he's not. But the stripper story was this is

728
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:46,719
Speaker 1: from New York Times now revealed Booker's Twitter messages, and

729
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:48,440
Speaker 1: he was, yeah, he was tweeting back and forth. I

730
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:50,719
Speaker 1: think with this stripper, I'd have to read more about it.

731
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:53,080
Speaker 1: But I remember this was a story a couple of

732
00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 1: years ago. Uh this woman, uh miss Bonnaru, it says

733
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:05,040
Speaker 1: Bananu twenty four year olds from Ohio, but Banano is

734
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,919
Speaker 1: one of the five crime families. I'd have to look

735
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:10,400
Speaker 1: more into this, but apparently here's the picture. This is

736
00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:14,160
Speaker 1: the woman that Corey Booker was allegedly hooking up with.

737
00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 1: So I'm not sure. I don't believe it. I don't

738
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:18,719
Speaker 1: believe it. I think, I mean, I think him being

739
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,239
Speaker 1: gay as just as believable. I don't. I don't know

740
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:23,520
Speaker 1: to go. I'm gonna go full house of cards and

741
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:26,360
Speaker 1: say the Booker team leaked that he was banging a

742
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:29,399
Speaker 1: scripper to make them, you know, but this is I don't.

743
00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:31,480
Speaker 1: I don't care, dude. It could be like if it

744
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 1: was like a gay black Buddhist, if they believe in

745
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:37,560
Speaker 1: capitalismon border scarity, I'd be like, hell yeah, I'll look

746
00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:39,400
Speaker 1: for you. By the way, I have the name wrong.

747
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:42,640
Speaker 1: It was apparently this woman from Portland, Oregon named Lindsay

748
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:48,040
Speaker 1: Lee h apparently d m her and then tweeted her, uh.

749
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:51,319
Speaker 1: She wrote, if your potus I called DIBs on first lady.

750
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:55,480
Speaker 1: So I don't know. I mean, I don't care if

751
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:58,040
Speaker 1: he's gay or hooking up with strippers. And I do

752
00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:00,839
Speaker 1: think it is this weird thing that attis quo has

753
00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:02,920
Speaker 1: to be that you have to be married to be

754
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,480
Speaker 1: the president, and why should I care. There's there's an

755
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:07,440
Speaker 1: article and I think it was in the Washington Post

756
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:10,560
Speaker 1: today about how Donald Trump is the first president in

757
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:14,239
Speaker 1: a century to not have a dog. Yes, that's right,

758
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:15,920
Speaker 1: he talked that. He talked about that last night at

759
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:17,880
Speaker 1: the rally. Actually he was saying people, a right. He

760
00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:20,640
Speaker 1: first he start, you know how he likes to ramble

761
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:23,720
Speaker 1: around the particular topic. So he's talking about like border

762
00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:26,719
Speaker 1: security and how they detect drug supports of entry. And

763
00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:28,880
Speaker 1: then he's like, but then I asked this border patrol,

764
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:33,200
Speaker 1: you know, is this high tech machinery better than a dog?

765
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,560
Speaker 1: And the border patrol tells me, no, no, no, the

766
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:37,640
Speaker 1: dog is the best. And that's when he starts rambling.

767
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:39,440
Speaker 1: You know, people say I should have a dog, and

768
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:43,279
Speaker 1: he just starts going off. I love when he goes

769
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:48,319
Speaker 1: off like that. It takes a ship too. Seriously, Jack,

770
00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:50,120
Speaker 1: you know my jack and he and you guys know

771
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 1: my thing. But none of this ship is gonna matter

772
00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 1: in a hundred years, you know what I mean. That's

773
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,520
Speaker 1: what gets me. People. He gets so fired up. It's like, dude,

774
00:41:56,520 --> 00:42:01,560
Speaker 1: have a fucking sense of humor. You're you're right that, well,

775
00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:05,040
Speaker 1: Donald Trump will be studied and by like political science

776
00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:08,120
Speaker 1: circles a hundred years from now, because it's uh, it's

777
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:12,239
Speaker 1: an odd curiosity and odd twist of history. But you're

778
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:15,440
Speaker 1: right that like of it, no one's going to care

779
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:18,719
Speaker 1: about a century from now. And politics is a it's

780
00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:20,680
Speaker 1: a marathon, not a sprint. I feel like a lot

781
00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:23,040
Speaker 1: of people don't get that, and they're very much trapped

782
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:25,759
Speaker 1: in the moment. Uh. And honestly, if you look at

783
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:28,120
Speaker 1: if you look at the real like what's happened in

784
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 1: America since he's been office, Right, just take your resistance

785
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:34,800
Speaker 1: cap off for just a second. Are things really super

786
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:40,560
Speaker 1: horrible from where they were January? No? No, no, not

787
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:42,600
Speaker 1: at all. A matter of fact, the markets, the market

788
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:47,040
Speaker 1: has been doing pretty good. Unemployments low, corporate profits are high.

789
00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:50,920
Speaker 1: I mean we're on on many many cylinders. America is fired.

790
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,680
Speaker 1: That's why all it is is doom and gloom, and

791
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,799
Speaker 1: it's like it's just not gonna you take And I'm

792
00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,440
Speaker 1: not a Donald Trump supporter, I never have been. But

793
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,680
Speaker 1: if you take the emotions out of it, you can't

794
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:06,359
Speaker 1: really make an objective argument that this is worse than

795
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:09,560
Speaker 1: if Hillary Clinton had been elected. I don't see how

796
00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:13,200
Speaker 1: you can make that argument. And more importantly, it's about

797
00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:17,320
Speaker 1: a thousand times more entertaining than if Hillary Clinton were elected,

798
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:20,560
Speaker 1: no doubt about that even. You know. The funny thing

799
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:23,000
Speaker 1: is even the people who hate him the most, they

800
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:25,399
Speaker 1: don't even realize how much they're going to misshionhe he's gone.

801
00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:27,560
Speaker 1: It's true, Yeah, what are they going to do? People

802
00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:32,800
Speaker 1: have made exactly careers like people have been made because

803
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:37,759
Speaker 1: of Donald Twitter celebrities, Twitter Resistance celebrities now because of

804
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:41,839
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. I agree with you b K that, like, yeah,

805
00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:44,680
Speaker 1: our our lives have not changed that much with Trump

806
00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:48,240
Speaker 1: in office. However, if you know, you do have something

807
00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:50,040
Speaker 1: like and people think it's far off, but a lot

808
00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 1: of people in the party are endorsing it, like this

809
00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:55,600
Speaker 1: Green New Deal that Okasta or Kirk Cortez wants that

810
00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:58,800
Speaker 1: would drastically change your life. It wouldn't just be tweets

811
00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:01,640
Speaker 1: that offend you. Yeah, but that that that thing's never

812
00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:04,120
Speaker 1: gonna happen. I mean, that's a little bullshot. But but

813
00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:06,360
Speaker 1: if I think it's I think it's incrementally it's the

814
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:08,359
Speaker 1: same thing they do with guns. You know, I think

815
00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:10,400
Speaker 1: they would incrementally want to be Well, yeah, that's what

816
00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:12,880
Speaker 1: I was saying before. I mean, politics is incremental. It's

817
00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:16,439
Speaker 1: one strategic gambit leading into the next. But I mean,

818
00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:20,640
Speaker 1: we're nowhere going to close some of these things. Honestly.

819
00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:22,480
Speaker 1: The thing that gets me more than anything is this

820
00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:25,759
Speaker 1: focus on high speed rail. I mean, can we knock

821
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:27,920
Speaker 1: it off of the high speed rail and live in

822
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:31,480
Speaker 1: reality here? Because I've been unlike most people, I've had

823
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:34,800
Speaker 1: a chance to watch our high speed rail debacle unfold

824
00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:36,880
Speaker 1: out here, first passed in the law by the stupid

825
00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:41,360
Speaker 1: voters in two thousand and eight. Complete clusterfuck right, And

826
00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:44,840
Speaker 1: so now even today, silly Gavin News from our new governor,

827
00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:48,239
Speaker 1: has finally said, you know what, we're abandoning as of today,

828
00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:50,600
Speaker 1: they're not even gonna try to build a high speed

829
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:53,160
Speaker 1: rail anymore from San Francisco to l A, the one

830
00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:55,080
Speaker 1: part of the state where you think there might be

831
00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:57,479
Speaker 1: a market from it. Instead, they're going to press on

832
00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 1: with a high speed rail line. But Queen Merced and Bakersfield,

833
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:04,920
Speaker 1: go freaking look at a map of California and look

834
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:07,200
Speaker 1: at where those two places are. You're talking about a

835
00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:10,960
Speaker 1: high speed rail line in the middle of nowhere. It's ludicrous,

836
00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:14,520
Speaker 1: it makes no sense, but they keep they they're in

837
00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:16,640
Speaker 1: love with I'm like, dude, trains, aren't trains like a

838
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:19,839
Speaker 1: two year old technology or some ship. I mean, let's

839
00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:22,040
Speaker 1: move on to the new thing. Let's talk about hyper loop,

840
00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:24,440
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the flying car. Where's my goddamn flying car?

841
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:26,600
Speaker 1: By the way, The other thing I want to ask

842
00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:29,960
Speaker 1: you about b K was who forwarded it to me?

843
00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:33,400
Speaker 1: But there that tweet? Where was that moronic boom? But

844
00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:36,400
Speaker 1: was talking about his job and stuff like that. You

845
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:39,120
Speaker 1: jumped in there and you're like, you sit behind a desk, bro,

846
00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:42,120
Speaker 1: like anybody can do your job. And the guy like, yes,

847
00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:43,640
Speaker 1: that was one of the ship that was one of

848
00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:45,800
Speaker 1: the woke Yeah, that was one of the woke vets.

849
00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:50,040
Speaker 1: Who is who is very all telling me like, yes,

850
00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:52,600
Speaker 1: the women in the infantry and all that and special

851
00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:57,239
Speaker 1: operations are totally fine, even though all evidence shows the opposite.

852
00:45:57,280 --> 00:45:59,160
Speaker 1: I keep going back to that one study, you guys

853
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:02,040
Speaker 1: of the Marine Corps. When they did that study an

854
00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:04,759
Speaker 1: all male platoon versus an integrated platoon. They did a

855
00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:07,440
Speaker 1: nine month study, you guys. They spent millions and millions

856
00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:11,400
Speaker 1: of dollars on it, and it proved definitively that an

857
00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:15,640
Speaker 1: all male platoon was far superior to the integrated one, obviously,

858
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:18,200
Speaker 1: And so what did then Secretary Ray maybe us do.

859
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:21,359
Speaker 1: He took that nine months, multimillion dollar study and threw

860
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:23,200
Speaker 1: it right in the shifter and said, yeah, well we're

861
00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:26,000
Speaker 1: doing it anyway, and you can't. How do you how

862
00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:28,200
Speaker 1: do you reason with people like that? Yeah, because they're

863
00:46:28,239 --> 00:46:30,879
Speaker 1: so ideological that you you can't. And they will tell

864
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:34,680
Speaker 1: you that, like, the science is settled, there's no hold ups,

865
00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:38,120
Speaker 1: you know, no problems, nothing's going to happen. So all

866
00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:40,560
Speaker 1: of you guys need to just shut up. Yes, and

867
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:42,560
Speaker 1: I and Jack. The other one that drives me nuts

868
00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:45,200
Speaker 1: is the the transgender and the military thing. I think

869
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:47,719
Speaker 1: you and I probably agree on this. If you're if

870
00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:50,520
Speaker 1: you're just a tan and say you're your your private

871
00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:53,080
Speaker 1: private Murphy, right, you come to me, I'm your CEO,

872
00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:55,680
Speaker 1: You're like, hey, I'm transgender. Now, I'd be like, okay,

873
00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:57,839
Speaker 1: well do you need to do you need to do

874
00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:00,799
Speaker 1: anything like hormone sex change, you know, form name change,

875
00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:02,680
Speaker 1: And you're like, no, I'm just transgender. I'd be like Okay,

876
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:07,000
Speaker 1: good to go, you're in. But it's but for somebody

877
00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:09,840
Speaker 1: to sit there and argue at the straight face that

878
00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:15,120
Speaker 1: removing somebody from duty and making them non deployable four months,

879
00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:17,440
Speaker 1: if not years at a time we don't even know

880
00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:22,320
Speaker 1: because of hormone therapy or slash surgery, and to say

881
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:25,759
Speaker 1: that doesn't affect readiness is the most stupid thing I've

882
00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:30,319
Speaker 1: ever heard in my life. It's a nonsense. I'd love

883
00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:33,960
Speaker 1: one of these Washington Post military journalists because I even

884
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:36,840
Speaker 1: suggested this. I'm like, hey, guys, why don't you fucking

885
00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:42,120
Speaker 1: find out how many people have actually undergone hormone replacement

886
00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:45,520
Speaker 1: therapy and undergone sex change therapy in the military, and

887
00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:48,880
Speaker 1: if they have, how long they've been rendered unfit for

888
00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:53,279
Speaker 1: duty slash nondeployable. Because me, a little birdie told me,

889
00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:57,600
Speaker 1: if you start hormone therapy in the military, you're automatically

890
00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:00,080
Speaker 1: non deployable for two years. That's what I heard. I

891
00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:03,320
Speaker 1: can't prove it yet. Yeah, I mean, you look at them,

892
00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:06,400
Speaker 1: but how does that how does that indicate not affecting readiness?

893
00:48:06,440 --> 00:48:08,520
Speaker 1: I mean, we all we all know people who have

894
00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:12,200
Speaker 1: not been allowed to join because of asthma are minor,

895
00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:16,479
Speaker 1: minor health issues. Um. You know I I I knew

896
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:20,440
Speaker 1: a guy he had to take a prescription medication for acne. Uh.

897
00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:22,920
Speaker 1: His acne was like so bad, you know, would get

898
00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:25,560
Speaker 1: out of control. So he had to take these pills. Um,

899
00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:27,759
Speaker 1: and he couldn't go to ranger school because he was

900
00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:29,360
Speaker 1: on those pills. So he had to sneak them in,

901
00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:32,440
Speaker 1: smuggle them in and tell them he wasn't on any medications. So,

902
00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:35,279
Speaker 1: I mean, I think transsexuals can tell you themselves that,

903
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:39,640
Speaker 1: I mean, going through a gender reassignment surgery and all

904
00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:42,799
Speaker 1: that other stuff. I mean it's serious, serious shit. Um,

905
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:48,359
Speaker 1: not only physically but mentally, Jacky, think about what think

906
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:52,160
Speaker 1: about what the turmoil you're in in that state, Like

907
00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:53,840
Speaker 1: do you do it? Do I not do it? Do

908
00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:56,480
Speaker 1: I go fucking full bore on this? Do I not?

909
00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:58,400
Speaker 1: Am I ever going to be? And you're you're thinking

910
00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:00,560
Speaker 1: all this and in the meantime you're to show upro

911
00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:03,879
Speaker 1: work And it's just it's just the military is not

912
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:07,040
Speaker 1: in the habit of keeping people on who need extensive

913
00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:10,000
Speaker 1: medical health. And that's why the people who make some

914
00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:12,279
Speaker 1: of these arguments, it's like they're trying to say two

915
00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:15,120
Speaker 1: plus two is five, and if you argue against them,

916
00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:20,680
Speaker 1: you're transphobic, your sexist, you're racist. It's like, no, I'm okay,

917
00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:23,480
Speaker 1: I'm okay with the trans community. I mean, I'm I'm

918
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:25,960
Speaker 1: even okay with them serving in the military. I just

919
00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:28,279
Speaker 1: don't see how you can be going through a transition

920
00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:31,799
Speaker 1: but also be deployable. Well. I mean, it's just no

921
00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:34,680
Speaker 1: one wants to make this point because you know, it's

922
00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:37,920
Speaker 1: somehow transphobic to bring this up, and it's politically incorrect.

923
00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:41,239
Speaker 1: But here's like a high profile example that people don't

924
00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:44,279
Speaker 1: want to talk about. When Caitlin Jenner got into that

925
00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:47,680
Speaker 1: car accident and kill literally killed someone. He was a

926
00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:51,520
Speaker 1: man taking female hormones. Was that a factor in his driving?

927
00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:58,120
Speaker 1: Very possibly? If you're on alcohol, if you're on what's up?

928
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:01,040
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, you know, if those hormones have

929
00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:04,640
Speaker 1: If if like they tell me, hormones have zero effect

930
00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:07,319
Speaker 1: on the soldier's ability, and it doesn't, it doesn't have

931
00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:09,400
Speaker 1: any effect on you at all, then why are we

932
00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:14,000
Speaker 1: fucking jamming all of our special operations full of testosterone

933
00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:17,440
Speaker 1: right now? Let's make them, let's make them into scary

934
00:50:17,719 --> 00:50:20,080
Speaker 1: monsters right now? Why are we doing that if they

935
00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:22,239
Speaker 1: have no effect on readiness and it doesn't affect you

936
00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:26,160
Speaker 1: as a soldier, what's the big deal have every military

937
00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:31,279
Speaker 1: member look like anything? There? It's it's a it's an

938
00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:35,319
Speaker 1: ideological argument, and that's why it's difficult, if not impossible,

939
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:38,080
Speaker 1: to have an adult discussion with these people, because they're

940
00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:43,680
Speaker 1: they're ideologues. Just like I'm just saying, Like, just proved

941
00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:46,480
Speaker 1: to me, proved me wrong, is all I'm saying. And

942
00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:48,440
Speaker 1: people don't want they don't want to hear. Just the

943
00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:51,360
Speaker 1: fact that you're making an argument is what makes them angry.

944
00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:53,640
Speaker 1: They don't much like, they don't want to engage. You're

945
00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:58,160
Speaker 1: not allowed, You're not allowed to disagree. Yeah, it's crazy,

946
00:50:58,160 --> 00:51:01,279
Speaker 1: you guys. Anyway, freaking Twitter, man. I wanted to bring

947
00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:03,880
Speaker 1: up one other thing a little bit earlier, and I

948
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:07,080
Speaker 1: did pull up the clip. I remember Nick from Ranger

949
00:51:07,160 --> 00:51:09,319
Speaker 1: Up brought this up. You were talking about Trump going

950
00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:12,319
Speaker 1: off script talking about his dog. This was such a

951
00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:15,520
Speaker 1: funny equip because he was talking about, uh, you know,

952
00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:18,200
Speaker 1: the trouble with the border and gangs and MS thirteen

953
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:20,839
Speaker 1: and I'm sure on the script it talked about coyotes,

954
00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:24,480
Speaker 1: meaning and if you listen to the way he says this,

955
00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:29,680
Speaker 1: Trump thought they meant literal coyotes. I'm gonna play the clip, um,

956
00:51:29,719 --> 00:51:32,080
Speaker 1: but before going any further, I want to address a

957
00:51:32,120 --> 00:51:36,000
Speaker 1: matter of vital national importance. You've all been seeing it,

958
00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:41,200
Speaker 1: reading it, hearing it. Border security. Every nation has not

959
00:51:41,239 --> 00:51:45,480
Speaker 1: only the right, but the absolute duty to protect its

960
00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:49,520
Speaker 1: borders and its citizens. A nation without borders is a

961
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:53,880
Speaker 1: nation not at all. Without borders, we have the reign

962
00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:58,520
Speaker 1: of chaos, crime, cartels, and believe it or not, coyotes

963
00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:03,759
Speaker 1: the way he believe it or not, coyotes. I mean,

964
00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:08,840
Speaker 1: I think that's that's literally what he thought. All of

965
00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:12,719
Speaker 1: his verbiage is about the best, spectacular, huge everything is.

966
00:52:12,760 --> 00:52:15,359
Speaker 1: Everything is the craziest thing you've ever heard of. Right,

967
00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:17,959
Speaker 1: you know it's gonna be unbelievable. It's gonna be huge,

968
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:20,680
Speaker 1: like nothing you've ever seen. He's very demonstrative and a

969
00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:25,520
Speaker 1: motive in his language. But yeah, he's he's funny too.

970
00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:27,759
Speaker 1: I don't mind. Like, see this is where he was

971
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:30,040
Speaker 1: stupid to me. Like, first of all, the kind the

972
00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:33,320
Speaker 1: the focus on border security with the terrorism, that was

973
00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:36,480
Speaker 1: dumb to me. I mean, like it nobody's saying they're

974
00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:40,000
Speaker 1: like legions of Isis snipers you know I'm coming through

975
00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:42,719
Speaker 1: the southern border. Instead, they should be it should be

976
00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:45,720
Speaker 1: about costs and the enormous bills the taxpayers are paying

977
00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:49,160
Speaker 1: for all this, and the thing is the system, Jack.

978
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:51,840
Speaker 1: If I had my way, I was agnostic on the

979
00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:53,560
Speaker 1: wall from the beginning. I was like, forget the wall.

980
00:52:53,719 --> 00:52:57,120
Speaker 1: Change the laws that say you cannot immediately deport someone

981
00:52:57,239 --> 00:53:01,080
Speaker 1: unless they're Mexican or Canadian, because one they're in the country,

982
00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:06,359
Speaker 1: then it's a huge expense and time to ever get

983
00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:08,440
Speaker 1: rid of them. And that's the part that needs to

984
00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:11,960
Speaker 1: be stressed as the taxpayer. If I could just jump

985
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:14,640
Speaker 1: in there. Though, when you say, like the poorest borders

986
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:16,960
Speaker 1: and terrorism, you don't like that he makes that argument.

987
00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:20,480
Speaker 1: I don't think it's uh bad thing to talk about

988
00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:23,120
Speaker 1: because like we've had, you've had Dan Gordon on the

989
00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:26,000
Speaker 1: podcast of it. Well, Dan Gordon wrote a whole book,

990
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:27,759
Speaker 1: he wrote two books about this, but he's been on

991
00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:31,120
Speaker 1: the podcast Former I d F. And his whole argument

992
00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:33,239
Speaker 1: is just the same way that the tunnels are being

993
00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:36,480
Speaker 1: used in Israel for terrorism, which he's gone in depth about.

994
00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:40,640
Speaker 1: He thinks the same thing could happen, but comparing apples

995
00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:43,680
Speaker 1: and oranges. The United States Mexican border is not that

996
00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:46,720
Speaker 1: is really Palestinian border. I mean they're just two different

997
00:53:46,719 --> 00:53:49,440
Speaker 1: but it could be used for the same Okay, the

998
00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:52,360
Speaker 1: Canadian border could be used. They could come up in

999
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:55,120
Speaker 1: submarines from the Atlantic Ocean. And I mean there are

1000
00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:57,719
Speaker 1: all kinds of threats. Can you have to pick and

1001
00:53:57,800 --> 00:54:02,839
Speaker 1: choose which ones to deploy your resources to protect against? Um? Right? Jack?

1002
00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:04,920
Speaker 1: But that's where it's idiotic to me is when people

1003
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:07,720
Speaker 1: that's when people are like, see, look the tunnel. See

1004
00:54:07,840 --> 00:54:10,880
Speaker 1: therefore walls are useless. And I'm like, more on, nobody's

1005
00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:14,080
Speaker 1: saying a physical barrier would stop or be effectient at

1006
00:54:14,120 --> 00:54:16,120
Speaker 1: the time. That's not the idea of the ideas that

1007
00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:19,000
Speaker 1: you slow it down so you just can't walk over

1008
00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:23,520
Speaker 1: a tunnel. Takes how much money to build a tunnel,

1009
00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:25,960
Speaker 1: you know? And then up Moron saying, oh, they'll just

1010
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:27,880
Speaker 1: have ladders, I'm like, really, they're gonna have a ladder

1011
00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:29,080
Speaker 1: in the middle of the desert. Where are they going

1012
00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:30,560
Speaker 1: to get this ladder from? How are they going to

1013
00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:33,239
Speaker 1: carry this ladder? All? They just stay stay stupid ship. Well,

1014
00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:35,040
Speaker 1: I mean I don't think I think it would be

1015
00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:36,600
Speaker 1: stupid to build a wall in the middle of the

1016
00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:40,239
Speaker 1: desert um. But I mean, I understand your point. I

1017
00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:43,000
Speaker 1: think they there's definitely good reasons to build walls in

1018
00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:45,160
Speaker 1: some of the more urban and built up areas and

1019
00:54:45,160 --> 00:54:47,600
Speaker 1: then in the open areas San Diego, San Diego. It

1020
00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:49,560
Speaker 1: worked great. They built a wall here and ask any

1021
00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:53,040
Speaker 1: Border Patrol agent in San Diego sector like everything like

1022
00:54:53,160 --> 00:54:57,839
Speaker 1: illegal immigration and drug draft team dropped it said, like

1023
00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:00,399
Speaker 1: night and day. So clearly it works. And clear Jack,

1024
00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:03,720
Speaker 1: like you said, this is an appropriate area, this heavily

1025
00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:08,320
Speaker 1: urbanized area between Tijuana major city in San Diego major

1026
00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:11,800
Speaker 1: city walls appropriate for sure. Yeah, but it's an emotional

1027
00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:14,359
Speaker 1: topic for people. I don't know why they just can't

1028
00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:16,319
Speaker 1: just talk about it like men. Why can't people talk

1029
00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:18,840
Speaker 1: about stuff like men and women can talk like men.

1030
00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:21,280
Speaker 1: You guys know what I mean. Man, women, it's adults.

1031
00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:24,680
Speaker 1: Let's talk about like adults. Don't don't fly into hysterics

1032
00:55:24,719 --> 00:55:28,120
Speaker 1: because somebody used the wrong pronouns for Christ six. So

1033
00:55:28,120 --> 00:55:30,919
Speaker 1: so the Twitter account that you're currently using for those

1034
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:35,360
Speaker 1: listening is at b K actual podcast. It's significantly smaller

1035
00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:38,000
Speaker 1: than what you were originally at. How many followers did

1036
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:41,920
Speaker 1: you lose because of this whole debacle. It was somewhere

1037
00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:45,600
Speaker 1: around like thirty seven hundred, I think when I got vaporized.

1038
00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:48,200
Speaker 1: And so now I'm about I got it. I got

1039
00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:52,319
Speaker 1: it up quickly to about almost five hundred. So I

1040
00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:54,480
Speaker 1: just need to multiply it by about seven times and

1041
00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:56,160
Speaker 1: I'll be out where I was. But I mean, it

1042
00:55:56,239 --> 00:55:58,960
Speaker 1: just sucks because you do a podcast, you have a Patreon,

1043
00:55:59,080 --> 00:56:01,640
Speaker 1: you rely on people helping you out and all that

1044
00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:04,640
Speaker 1: to continue with your podcast and and have it grow.

1045
00:56:04,880 --> 00:56:07,239
Speaker 1: And well, this is the thing, and this is this

1046
00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:09,279
Speaker 1: is the big debate everybody's having right now with these

1047
00:56:09,280 --> 00:56:12,920
Speaker 1: tech companies, like are they a service in line with

1048
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:16,720
Speaker 1: like say, a utility, or are they a private company

1049
00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:18,560
Speaker 1: that can do what they want? And people are starting

1050
00:56:18,560 --> 00:56:20,600
Speaker 1: to argue, like if you're the only game in town,

1051
00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:24,960
Speaker 1: I don't know the answer to that. They have monopolized

1052
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:27,760
Speaker 1: the market and they push out people who could compete.

1053
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:30,239
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm of the opinion at this point with

1054
00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:33,239
Speaker 1: the bigger tech companies, bigger social media companies, that they

1055
00:56:33,239 --> 00:56:36,320
Speaker 1: should be nationalized or at least have the government should

1056
00:56:36,360 --> 00:56:40,279
Speaker 1: split them up into smaller companies. Yeah, I mean I've

1057
00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:42,879
Speaker 1: seen people like kicked off of People are getting kicked

1058
00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:45,440
Speaker 1: off of Patreon for political beliefs. And the funny thing

1059
00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:47,840
Speaker 1: is they're getting kicked off not for online behavior, but

1060
00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:50,680
Speaker 1: what they do in real life. Now. Yeah, so now

1061
00:56:50,719 --> 00:56:55,319
Speaker 1: these companies, these platforms are treating your behavior and your

1062
00:56:55,360 --> 00:56:59,040
Speaker 1: personal life outside their platforms. They're taking that behavior into

1063
00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:02,000
Speaker 1: account and deciding whether or not to grant you their platform.

1064
00:57:03,320 --> 00:57:06,719
Speaker 1: Messed up. I mean, between them, they're harvesting, collecting, and

1065
00:57:06,760 --> 00:57:09,560
Speaker 1: selling all of your data despite whatever they tell you

1066
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:13,560
Speaker 1: about privacy. They're selling everything. Just like by the way,

1067
00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:16,880
Speaker 1: these DNA companies said they weren't going to sell and

1068
00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:19,640
Speaker 1: now it's out that one of the more popular ones. Yeah,

1069
00:57:19,640 --> 00:57:22,480
Speaker 1: it's giving your literally your d n A to the FBI.

1070
00:57:23,040 --> 00:57:26,280
Speaker 1: Of course they are, they all are. And then then

1071
00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:28,400
Speaker 1: you combine that with the fact that these companies are

1072
00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:32,400
Speaker 1: essentially running a giant um, you know, social experiment on

1073
00:57:32,480 --> 00:57:34,640
Speaker 1: all of us, treating us like we're you know, our

1074
00:57:34,640 --> 00:57:37,160
Speaker 1: society is some kind of a Petri dish for them

1075
00:57:37,200 --> 00:57:39,840
Speaker 1: to play around in and make money off of. Now,

1076
00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:42,280
Speaker 1: I'm I'm of the opinion that it's time for some

1077
00:57:42,360 --> 00:57:46,240
Speaker 1: of the antitrust laws to kick in. Yeah, Jack, I

1078
00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:48,640
Speaker 1: mean you're in the publishing business and look how look

1079
00:57:48,680 --> 00:57:52,960
Speaker 1: at what Google and Facebook have done to online publishers.

1080
00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:56,080
Speaker 1: So it's very difficult to make money. I mean you

1081
00:57:56,120 --> 00:57:59,280
Speaker 1: saw the media layoffs has passed. Now, these media companies

1082
00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:03,040
Speaker 1: haven't exactly helped themselves out by choosing to locate their

1083
00:58:03,040 --> 00:58:07,360
Speaker 1: offices and extremely opulent New York City real estate for

1084
00:58:07,560 --> 00:58:11,200
Speaker 1: enormous amounts of rent, but still they've made it so

1085
00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:13,800
Speaker 1: hard that it's very difficult to make money unless you're

1086
00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:16,080
Speaker 1: a Google or Facebook and you have all that they're getting,

1087
00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:18,160
Speaker 1: all the ad money. Yeah, it's a race to the

1088
00:58:18,160 --> 00:58:21,560
Speaker 1: bottom for sure. And I mean even the biggest outlets

1089
00:58:21,760 --> 00:58:24,520
Speaker 1: in you know, media, I mean a lot of them,

1090
00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:28,919
Speaker 1: most of them are not profitable. That that blows my mind. Jack.

1091
00:58:28,920 --> 00:58:31,640
Speaker 1: Remember you and I were talking about Vice Media. Remember

1092
00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:33,680
Speaker 1: when a couple of like five years ago and Vice

1093
00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:36,600
Speaker 1: was just blowing up and they were getting valid, they

1094
00:58:36,600 --> 00:58:39,760
Speaker 1: were getting like hundreds of millions of dollars in venture

1095
00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:42,840
Speaker 1: capital money poured into them, and they can't make a profit.

1096
00:58:42,840 --> 00:58:45,400
Speaker 1: And I'm like, what are you doing with all that money?

1097
00:58:45,440 --> 00:58:47,880
Speaker 1: I mean, you can give me fifty grand a year

1098
00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:51,160
Speaker 1: and I'll give you a pretty fun product, a good product.

1099
00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:52,400
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know what they're doing with all

1100
00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:54,680
Speaker 1: these hundreds of millions of dollars. Frankly, yeah, I know.

1101
00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:57,640
Speaker 1: That's why I was laughing at the Pentagon. They spend

1102
00:58:57,760 --> 00:59:00,360
Speaker 1: something like five or six hundred million dollars a year.

1103
00:59:00,400 --> 00:59:03,360
Speaker 1: I'm like, public relations and stuff like that. I'm like,

1104
00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:06,240
Speaker 1: how is your public relations so bad when you have

1105
00:59:06,360 --> 00:59:09,600
Speaker 1: so much money to play with? Dude, Honestly, give me

1106
00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:12,880
Speaker 1: the Pentagon's official Twitter account and you can pay me, like,

1107
00:59:13,000 --> 00:59:15,360
Speaker 1: I don't know, like a hundred thousand dollars a year,

1108
00:59:15,400 --> 00:59:17,960
Speaker 1: and I do better than that five hundred million dollars.

1109
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:23,360
Speaker 1: So I freaking guarantee, I guarantee it. Crazy man, Yeah,

1110
00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:24,880
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, it's just one of those

1111
00:59:24,920 --> 00:59:26,560
Speaker 1: things where like they can just wake up in the

1112
00:59:26,600 --> 00:59:30,760
Speaker 1: morning and change their algorithm and your entire business is done.

1113
00:59:31,600 --> 00:59:33,920
Speaker 1: Yeah that's right, Jack. You gotta get out here to

1114
00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:37,320
Speaker 1: uh to southern California. This is the epicenter of the resistance.

1115
00:59:37,360 --> 00:59:41,680
Speaker 1: You'd love it. Your your toxic, your toxic, non woke

1116
00:59:42,360 --> 00:59:45,400
Speaker 1: white male veteran status would uh would make you very

1117
00:59:45,440 --> 00:59:47,440
Speaker 1: popular around here. Well, I mean I live in New

1118
00:59:47,480 --> 00:59:49,919
Speaker 1: York City, So I mean, my my skin is pretty thick,

1119
00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:52,919
Speaker 1: and you live in a pretty hipster part of Brooklyn. Yeah,

1120
00:59:52,960 --> 00:59:56,000
Speaker 1: for sure, for sure. I know how funny is Ian?

1121
00:59:56,040 --> 00:59:58,480
Speaker 1: How funny is that that Jack lives in like creaking

1122
00:59:59,040 --> 01:00:03,720
Speaker 1: home of like the artisanal Maynnais shop. Yeah, I'm deep

1123
01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:07,840
Speaker 1: behind enemy lines. It's like an Antifa enclave. But I'm

1124
01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:10,479
Speaker 1: kind of the same way living in SoCal. People are like, dude,

1125
01:00:10,480 --> 01:00:13,040
Speaker 1: how can you live out in SoCal all those goddamn communists,

1126
01:00:13,080 --> 01:00:15,760
Speaker 1: And I'm like, you know, I kind of like having

1127
01:00:15,840 --> 01:00:20,120
Speaker 1: my my fresh raw pokey shop three blocks from my house.

1128
01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:21,600
Speaker 1: I like that. I want to live in the middle

1129
01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:25,440
Speaker 1: of freaking nowhere in Kansas or no Offense Kansas. I

1130
01:00:25,480 --> 01:00:27,480
Speaker 1: just don't want to live out there. Yeah, guys who

1131
01:00:27,520 --> 01:00:29,640
Speaker 1: are the opposite, But I'm just not like that. When

01:01:11,520 --> 01:01:14,320
Speaker 1: We we definitely have to do this again soon. Once again.

1147
01:01:14,360 --> 01:01:17,160
Speaker 1: As I mentioned, the Patreon is Patreon dot com, slash

1148
01:01:17,160 --> 01:01:19,760
Speaker 1: b K actual the podcast His World News with b

1149
01:01:19,920 --> 01:01:22,960
Speaker 1: K you record every week, and uh, what have you

1150
01:01:22,960 --> 01:01:24,680
Speaker 1: been up to with the podcast? By the way, I know,

1151
01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:27,439
Speaker 1: it's like it's pretty simple, but it's you kind of

1152
01:01:27,480 --> 01:01:30,000
Speaker 1: going over stuff. You don't really have guests usually, But

1153
01:01:30,040 --> 01:01:31,440
Speaker 1: what have you been up to? Yeah, it's pretty it's

1154
01:01:31,440 --> 01:01:33,720
Speaker 1: pretty so so. Yeah, guys, when I was still contracting,

1155
01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:36,160
Speaker 1: it was easy for me to get guests obviously, and

1156
01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:39,000
Speaker 1: I've had guests from pretty much every special operations unit. Hell,

1157
01:01:39,320 --> 01:01:42,120
Speaker 1: I had h Jack, I had your boy John Striker

1158
01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:46,560
Speaker 1: Meyer for McVie was on the podcast because he was

1159
01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:50,200
Speaker 1: out here. But you've had Terry shopper right, who's that

1160
01:01:50,320 --> 01:01:53,160
Speaker 1: Terry Shopperd you've had on? I had, I've had Terry

1161
01:01:53,160 --> 01:01:56,200
Speaker 1: Shopperd on before. Terry's great. He said he'd do it again.

1162
01:01:56,240 --> 01:01:57,760
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm just scared him a little bit.

1163
01:01:57,760 --> 01:01:59,600
Speaker 1: But you know, it's kind of hard to get people.

1164
01:01:59,640 --> 01:02:01,680
Speaker 1: And then the other thing, guys, you'd be surprised. But

1165
01:02:02,040 --> 01:02:05,160
Speaker 1: you know, there's not a lot of veterans, you know there.

1166
01:02:05,200 --> 01:02:08,120
Speaker 1: They don't want to talk about you know, politics and

1167
01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:10,960
Speaker 1: news and stuff that's going on. It's it's controversial. So

1168
01:02:11,000 --> 01:02:13,280
Speaker 1: I end up mostly doing it by myself. And uh,

1169
01:02:13,520 --> 01:02:15,560
Speaker 1: I have a good time. I mean every week is different,

1170
01:02:15,600 --> 01:02:17,000
Speaker 1: you know, and I love it. And I always end

1171
01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:19,600
Speaker 1: on a high note with somebody doing something stupid with

1172
01:02:19,640 --> 01:02:24,440
Speaker 1: their body, usually involving something some sex, something sex related.

1173
01:02:25,400 --> 01:02:27,800
Speaker 1: I find I find that with a lot of like

1174
01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:30,000
Speaker 1: writers or people who claim they want to be a

1175
01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:32,080
Speaker 1: writer and they contact me and really they just want

1176
01:02:32,080 --> 01:02:34,400
Speaker 1: to like promote their shooting school or something like that.

1177
01:02:34,480 --> 01:02:36,800
Speaker 1: And that's why I'm happy to like give a shout out.

1178
01:02:36,840 --> 01:02:39,360
Speaker 1: But like, I can't imagine having someone on a podcast

1179
01:02:39,400 --> 01:02:41,560
Speaker 1: for an hour just to talk about like, oh yeah,

1180
01:02:41,760 --> 01:02:44,440
Speaker 1: like I'm starting this training center and you know I

1181
01:02:44,840 --> 01:02:48,840
Speaker 1: had to once on a previous episode. Yeah, Ian, I'm

1182
01:02:48,880 --> 01:02:50,640
Speaker 1: sure you'd come across that all the time. Because a

1183
01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:52,520
Speaker 1: lot of people ask me like, hey, why don't you

1184
01:02:52,560 --> 01:02:56,520
Speaker 1: get a big name veteran guy over here on your podcast,

1185
01:02:56,600 --> 01:02:59,320
Speaker 1: I'm like, well, because they don't really want to talk

1186
01:02:59,320 --> 01:03:01,200
Speaker 1: about stuff like us. I mean, and they see the

1187
01:03:01,240 --> 01:03:04,520
Speaker 1: description of the podcast where I'm talking about a hobo

1188
01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:07,440
Speaker 1: breaking into a funeral home and having sex with the corpse.

1189
01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:09,560
Speaker 1: You know, they're not really down to talk about that.

1190
01:03:09,560 --> 01:03:11,480
Speaker 1: That is a real story that was last week, by

1191
01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:15,080
Speaker 1: the way, and uh, guys aren't really down with that

1192
01:03:15,240 --> 01:03:17,920
Speaker 1: two and a half hour straight boys live, no editing, noo.

1193
01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:20,240
Speaker 1: I'm telling you some of those guys I'm cool with

1194
01:03:20,280 --> 01:03:22,040
Speaker 1: having on because they talk about other stuff. Like when

1195
01:03:22,080 --> 01:03:25,479
Speaker 1: I saw I love having Jeff Gonzalison, for example, who's

1196
01:03:25,520 --> 01:03:27,400
Speaker 1: in that world? But I saw like Jeff who was

1197
01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:31,480
Speaker 1: uh taking photos of him training Alex Jones, So I

1198
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:33,280
Speaker 1: was like, I have to ask him about that. But no,

1199
01:03:33,440 --> 01:03:36,160
Speaker 1: other times I've had to have people on and and

1200
01:03:36,320 --> 01:03:38,440
Speaker 1: it's kind of weird for me too because my knowledge

1201
01:03:38,480 --> 01:03:43,480
Speaker 1: of guns is very little. So it's a struggle. It's

1202
01:03:43,520 --> 01:03:45,640
Speaker 1: and it's tough to have, like especially if you're doing

1203
01:03:45,640 --> 01:03:48,240
Speaker 1: a news politics show, because almost instantly you're going to

1204
01:03:48,360 --> 01:03:51,600
Speaker 1: alienate half your audience. So if some so, if some

1205
01:03:51,720 --> 01:03:54,600
Speaker 1: guy is in the business of selling his shooting school

1206
01:03:54,680 --> 01:03:57,160
Speaker 1: or selling his book about being a seal or an

1207
01:03:57,240 --> 01:03:59,800
Speaker 1: sf guy, he doesn't want to alienate half his audience

1208
01:03:59,880 --> 01:04:02,160
Speaker 1: right away by going on a show which just on

1209
01:04:02,200 --> 01:04:06,200
Speaker 1: the outset you'd consider me like right leaning, but you

1210
01:04:06,240 --> 01:04:08,520
Speaker 1: know it's far more nuanced than that. But you guys

1211
01:04:08,520 --> 01:04:10,040
Speaker 1: don't want to do that, and I understand it, so

1212
01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:12,760
Speaker 1: I just end up doing it by myself. Cool man, Well,

1213

1215
01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:22,160
Speaker 1: And uh, this has been good man. I you know,

1216
01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:24,960
Speaker 1: I hope that you somehow get your original account back,

1217
01:04:25,040 --> 01:04:27,480
Speaker 1: but it doesn't sound it's going to happen. Yeah, no,

1218
01:04:27,680 --> 01:04:29,840
Speaker 1: thanks for doing that, man, And uh, you know, make

1219
01:04:29,880 --> 01:04:32,520
Speaker 1: sure that you stand at the position of attention when

1220
01:04:32,560 --> 01:04:38,400
Speaker 1: you address officers on Twitter. Sergeant, sergeant who it is

1221
01:04:38,480 --> 01:04:41,840
Speaker 1: I I so badly well that guy was. Now I'm

1222
01:04:41,880 --> 01:04:46,520
Speaker 1: not going to sergeant you can want in case In

1223
01:04:46,560 --> 01:04:49,160
Speaker 1: case people don't know, Yes, I did get told by

1224
01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:54,080
Speaker 1: an extremely woke veteran who allegedly failed out of airborne

1225
01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:57,280
Speaker 1: school that I should stand in a position of attention

1226
01:04:57,320 --> 01:04:59,480
Speaker 1: while talking to him because I was just a lowly

1227
01:05:00,240 --> 01:05:02,680
Speaker 1: non commissioned officer and he is an officer. And I

1228
01:05:02,720 --> 01:05:06,959
Speaker 1: actually I laughed at his face. It's pretty funny. God

1229
01:05:07,040 --> 01:05:10,120
Speaker 1: help us, I know, thanks a lot, guys. I'll let

1230
01:05:10,160 --> 01:05:15,400
Speaker 1: you go to get out here, all right, So wrapping

1231
01:05:15,480 --> 01:05:19,000
Speaker 1: things up here, you know, I really wanted to mention this. Actually,

1232
01:05:19,680 --> 01:05:22,680
Speaker 1: uh Rob Trevino, who we previously had on and as

1233
01:05:22,720 --> 01:05:25,720
Speaker 1: a friend of the show, and it's highly spoken of

1234
01:05:25,840 --> 01:05:28,400
Speaker 1: by other guys on the show, like todda Palski, uh

1235
01:05:28,600 --> 01:05:31,919
Speaker 1: is suffering a life altering medical condition and he needs

1236
01:05:31,920 --> 01:05:34,200
Speaker 1: your help. Um. They have a go fund me up

1237
01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:36,760
Speaker 1: which I'm gonna post the link to in the description

1238
01:05:36,800 --> 01:05:39,560
Speaker 1: for this episode, and they're hoping to raise a hundred

1239
01:05:39,640 --> 01:05:42,200
Speaker 1: thousand dollars for him. I I don't know if they

1240
01:05:42,240 --> 01:05:44,560
Speaker 1: want to go into detail with what happened to him,

1241
01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:46,680
Speaker 1: but it's serious and that's why they have to raise

1242
01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:49,960
Speaker 1: that amount. Um. But the good news is that within

1243
01:05:50,200 --> 01:05:53,360
Speaker 1: one day they're already halfway there. They're over halfway there.

1244
01:05:53,840 --> 01:05:56,840
Speaker 1: So hopefully the soft Reap radio audience and you know,

1245
01:05:56,920 --> 01:06:00,160
Speaker 1: other people getting this out there could get them to

1246
01:06:00,200 --> 01:06:02,200
Speaker 1: their goal in the next few days. George Hand is

1247
01:06:02,240 --> 01:06:05,400
Speaker 1: involved in this. According to Eric Meisner, who brought to

1248
01:06:05,440 --> 01:06:08,320
Speaker 1: my attention, and Eric's a writer for The Load outright George,

1249
01:06:08,360 --> 01:06:12,280
Speaker 1: George has been visiting uh Robin the hospital. UM. And

1250
01:06:12,360 --> 01:06:17,880
Speaker 1: you know, Rob Trevino's a terrific, great guy. He's going

1251
01:06:17,920 --> 01:06:21,400
Speaker 1: through you know, some health issues right now, pretty serious. Uh.

1252
01:06:21,400 --> 01:06:24,960
Speaker 1: He's laid up in the hospital. UH. And you know,

1253
01:06:25,320 --> 01:06:29,440
Speaker 1: if you can donate to this effort, you know, I, uh,

1254
01:06:29,520 --> 01:06:32,000
Speaker 1: fifty thou dollars in a couple of days is amazing.

1255
01:06:32,440 --> 01:06:35,480
Speaker 1: But but but just keep in mind, like that's that'll

1256
01:06:35,520 --> 01:06:38,240
Speaker 1: pay for like maybe like three days in the hospital.

1257
01:06:38,680 --> 01:06:40,840
Speaker 1: I don't know how how much he's gonna need, but

1258
01:06:41,000 --> 01:06:45,600
Speaker 1: if you can donate, please consider doing it. Um. Rod's

1259
01:06:45,640 --> 01:06:47,640
Speaker 1: a young guy. I don't think he's even fifty yet.

1260
01:06:47,840 --> 01:06:50,320
Speaker 1: I mean, he he should have some years left in him,

1261
01:06:50,360 --> 01:06:53,160
Speaker 1: you know, And I hate to see a really a

1262
01:06:53,200 --> 01:06:56,960
Speaker 1: good guy, one of the good ones in that situation. Um.

1263
01:06:57,040 --> 01:06:59,440
Speaker 1: So you know, I'm glad that George is there looking

1264
01:06:59,440 --> 01:07:01,200
Speaker 1: over his should here a little bit. And you know

1265
01:07:01,280 --> 01:07:05,520
Speaker 1: he has family around him taking care of him. Um,

1266
01:07:05,560 --> 01:07:08,400
Speaker 1: so we hope he gets better soon. Yeah, I personally

1267
01:07:08,440 --> 01:07:10,360
Speaker 1: will be sure to donate as well. I'm gonna, like

1268
01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:12,480
Speaker 1: I said, post the link here and for those who

1269
01:07:12,680 --> 01:07:16,320
Speaker 1: might be new listeners, Rob Travino's former Delta Force, former

1270
01:07:16,400 --> 01:07:18,520
Speaker 1: the unit as we sometimes say on here, But I

1271
01:07:18,600 --> 01:07:21,400
Speaker 1: think he'd be fine with us saying that. Uh. And

1272
01:07:21,560 --> 01:07:23,520
Speaker 1: we hope that you guys could throw in for him.

1273
01:07:23,560 --> 01:07:25,760
Speaker 1: I mean, he's a guy who's fought for us as

1274
01:07:25,760 --> 01:07:30,400
Speaker 1: a country and uh could use our help right now. Yeah,

1275
01:07:30,400 --> 01:07:32,240
Speaker 1: that's that's an important thing to shoot out there. I'm

1276
01:07:32,240 --> 01:07:35,520
Speaker 1: gonna also get to this email that we have from

1277
01:07:35,560 --> 01:07:40,080
Speaker 1: a listener Mike sad Zack, Jack and Ian. Here is

1278
01:07:40,120 --> 01:07:43,280
Speaker 1: an article from Marine Corps Times about military housing coming

1279
01:07:43,360 --> 01:07:46,680
Speaker 1: under congressional scrutiny. Sent me the link, uh, and he

1280
01:07:46,720 --> 01:07:51,000
Speaker 1: writes after the episode for I've been emailing my senators

1281
01:07:51,080 --> 01:07:54,400
Speaker 1: Dick Durban and Tammy Duckworth. I'm sure Tammy Duckworth, you know,

1282
01:07:54,520 --> 01:07:58,040
Speaker 1: being a veteran herself. Hopefully UM is aware of this

1283
01:07:58,120 --> 01:08:00,400
Speaker 1: issue and wants to do something. UM, but he's been

1284
01:08:00,440 --> 01:08:04,160
Speaker 1: emailing them weekly uh and asking that they make this

1285
01:08:04,200 --> 01:08:07,120
Speaker 1: a topic of priority. While I'm sure my emails have

1286
01:08:07,240 --> 01:08:09,200
Speaker 1: not been read yet, I am glad to see that

1287
01:08:09,240 --> 01:08:12,880
Speaker 1: military housing is finally getting some attention in Congress. Just

1288
01:08:12,960 --> 01:08:15,400
Speaker 1: hope that something positive comes out of this. Thanks. That

1289
01:08:15,480 --> 01:08:17,439
Speaker 1: was set a software up dout radio at software up

1290
01:08:17,520 --> 01:08:20,679
Speaker 1: dot com. And I also wanted to add that our

1291
01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:24,519
Speaker 1: our previous guest, Peter Gidrie from Forgotten Not Gone, Uh,

1292
01:08:24,600 --> 01:08:28,839
Speaker 1: Forgotten Not Gone, reposted our episode with those two ladies

1293
01:08:28,880 --> 01:08:33,400
Speaker 1: affected by this military housing crisis. So yeah, the things

1294
01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:36,040
Speaker 1: are moving a little bit slowly but surely on the

1295
01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:40,040
Speaker 1: on the housing issues, UM. And I know the military

1296
01:08:40,080 --> 01:08:43,120
Speaker 1: families are out there pushing for it. UM. I don't

1297
01:08:43,280 --> 01:08:47,439
Speaker 1: think the congressional hearing has happened yet, UM, but there

1298
01:08:47,520 --> 01:08:49,879
Speaker 1: is going to be one, and the families will be involved,

1299
01:08:49,960 --> 01:08:53,280
Speaker 1: as I understand it, to offer testimony. So it's gonna

1300
01:08:53,320 --> 01:08:55,280
Speaker 1: be interesting to see what happens. And I think it

1301
01:08:55,320 --> 01:08:58,160
Speaker 1: was Lee who wrote something that Marcar Rubio is getting

1302
01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:01,840
Speaker 1: involved in on some level. So yeah, So I mean

1303
01:09:01,960 --> 01:09:04,439
Speaker 1: like I said, there should be a bipartisan issue. I

1304
01:09:04,479 --> 01:09:07,479
Speaker 1: would hope and and Dick durban and Tammy Duckworth, who

1305
01:09:07,560 --> 01:09:11,439
Speaker 1: Mike has been emailing, those are both Democrats. Um. I

1306
01:09:12,120 --> 01:09:14,800
Speaker 1: don't totally know Dick Durbin's record on the military. I

1307
01:09:14,840 --> 01:09:18,200
Speaker 1: know he's very left wing. But Tammy Duckworth, on the

1308
01:09:18,240 --> 01:09:20,200
Speaker 1: other hand, like I said, is someone who lost limbs

1309
01:09:20,200 --> 01:09:22,200
Speaker 1: in combat, and I would think it is sympathetic to

1310
01:09:22,240 --> 01:09:27,200
Speaker 1: military families for sure. Um. So yeah, keep contacting your senator,

1311
01:09:27,280 --> 01:09:31,759
Speaker 1: your congressmen. Let them know about this that military families

1312
01:09:31,760 --> 01:09:34,519
Speaker 1: with young children are and housing with black mold and

1313
01:09:34,560 --> 01:09:38,280
Speaker 1: they can't get out. It's it's a pretty crazy issue

1314
01:09:38,320 --> 01:09:42,040
Speaker 1: if you haven't listened to it. That's episode four. Um,

1315

1369
01:12:42,080 --> 01:12:45,800
Speaker 1: The only other thing uh I have going on is

1370
01:12:46,040 --> 01:12:50,719
Speaker 1: UH our writer UH former Green Beret named Greg Walker

1371
01:12:51,520 --> 01:12:53,840
Speaker 1: has written a series for us. It's a three part

1372
01:12:53,960 --> 01:12:58,680
Speaker 1: series about a Green Beret back in the nineteen eighties UH.

1373
01:12:58,760 --> 01:13:02,719
Speaker 1: In eighty he left the military and defected and became

1374
01:13:02,760 --> 01:13:07,880
Speaker 1: a Communist Sandinista fighter in UH in Nicaragua and UH

1375
01:13:08,040 --> 01:13:12,400
Speaker 1: let an armed column, a guerrilla column into Honduras, which

1376
01:13:12,439 --> 01:13:15,840
Speaker 1: resulted in his death. And for years and years, I've

1377
01:13:15,880 --> 01:13:18,800
Speaker 1: tried to get to the bottom of this story. UH.

1378
01:13:18,880 --> 01:13:23,360
Speaker 1: Some people will remember in Eric Keney's book Inside Delta Force,

1379
01:13:23,520 --> 01:13:26,439
Speaker 1: he talks about this incident where he claims to have

1380
01:13:26,600 --> 01:13:29,400
Speaker 1: killed this American Green Beret who went over to the

1381
01:13:29,400 --> 01:13:34,080
Speaker 1: other side. Hainey's story is inaccurate, and I've gone through that.

1382
01:13:34,439 --> 01:13:38,080
Speaker 1: It just isn't true and UM there's a lot, a

1383
01:13:38,080 --> 01:13:41,000
Speaker 1: lot of backstory behind that. But you will read the

1384
01:13:41,000 --> 01:13:44,120
Speaker 1: true story about this guy's His name was Dave Bayes

1385
01:13:44,760 --> 01:13:46,920
Speaker 1: Um you will read it in Greg Walker's series. The

1386
01:13:46,960 --> 01:13:50,200
Speaker 1: first one is out now. Uh, it went up yesterday,

1387
01:13:50,560 --> 01:13:52,800
Speaker 1: and part two will probably be out by the time

1388
01:13:52,800 --> 01:13:56,800
Speaker 1: people here this podcast. Um So, I highly encourage people

1389
01:13:56,840 --> 01:13:59,320
Speaker 1: to go and look at that because truth really is

1390
01:13:59,400 --> 01:14:03,160
Speaker 1: stranger than fiction. And Greg did a ton of research

1391
01:14:03,240 --> 01:14:05,840
Speaker 1: on this. Um he served in some of these units

1392
01:14:05,880 --> 01:14:07,560
Speaker 1: kind of in the same places. He was down in

1393
01:14:07,640 --> 01:14:11,080
Speaker 1: El Salvador and elsewhere during that time frame. Um So,

1394
01:14:11,120 --> 01:14:13,040
Speaker 1: he's familiar with a lot of the players and a

1395
01:14:13,040 --> 01:14:15,000
Speaker 1: lot of the actors down there, and he just did

1396
01:14:15,000 --> 01:14:16,840
Speaker 1: a ton of research. And I'll try to actually get

1397
01:14:16,920 --> 01:14:19,559
Speaker 1: him on the podcast to talk about his article once

1398
01:14:19,600 --> 01:14:23,000
Speaker 1: all three parts are out. Um So, please go check
