1 00:00:01,840 --> 00:00:06,120 Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George 2 00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:07,600 Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center. 3 00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:11,680 Speaker 2: Jack Armstrong and Joe Katty. I'm strong and Jettie and 4 00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:17,240 Speaker 2: he armstrong and Yetty. 5 00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:26,440 Speaker 3: But I do feel like the general public they're waking 6 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 3: up to those parents' dads, moms. They don't want to 7 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,440 Speaker 3: see their daughters lose out on opportunities and be forced 8 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:35,080 Speaker 3: to undress in front of someone of the opposite sex 9 00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:38,840 Speaker 3: and their locker room. So I do think tides are turning. 10 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,920 Speaker 3: There have been some sports governing bodies who have done 11 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 3: some good things World Athletics FINA, so I'm appreciating the 12 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 3: little steps, but I do believe the battle is nowhere 13 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:49,960 Speaker 3: near being one. 14 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 2: That's Charlie Gaines, who had to swim against a dude 15 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 2: in college, and she has become a big activist on 16 00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 2: this whole transport issue. She was standing behind University of 17 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 2: Nevada Reno women's volleyball players on Saturday when they had 18 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 2: to hold a press conference to basically shame or force 19 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:13,759 Speaker 2: their university into forfeiting because the university said, Nope, we're 20 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 2: gonna play, and the players were like, what, you don't 21 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 2: get to decide for us, We're not gonna get to 22 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 2: play against the dude who plays on San Jose State. 23 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 2: And it's become kind of a game for me since 24 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,119 Speaker 2: we started talking about this. I really enjoy this game 25 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 2: of when you follow a mainstream news story about San 26 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 2: Jose San Jose State women's volleyball, whether they ever mention 27 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 2: what the issue is. News sources have started to decide 28 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 2: they need to cover it all the forfeits, but they 29 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 2: never mention why in any mainstream news story, which is weird, weird, cowardly, dishonest. 30 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 4: So Riley Gaines is a co signer of a letter 31 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 4: with Jim Desmond, who is the supervisor fifth District of 32 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 4: San Diego County's Board of Supervisors, to San Diego State 33 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 4: University because they are going to be playing San Jose 34 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 4: State and their women's volleyball team that features a dude soon. 35 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 2: Jim, how are you, sir? Thanks for joining us. 36 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 5: Hey, thanks for having me this morning, Thanks for bringing 37 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 5: this up. 38 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 2: So, of course, why do you hate just my first 39 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,799 Speaker 2: question full of hate? Fair questions? 40 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 5: All right, No, no, not full of they just you know, 41 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 5: it's unfair competition. I mean this, you know, why even 42 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 5: discuss this? It's crazy to have, you know, men competing 43 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 5: in women's sports, and it only hurts the women, you know, 44 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 5: by them not being able to get scholarships or get 45 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 5: you know, get get the merits and awards that they 46 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 5: want or deserve. And these men are are getting into 47 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 5: these sports and taking it over it. It's you know, 48 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 5: Riley Gain signed on the letter, as you mentioned, also 49 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:51,639 Speaker 5: Peyton McNabb who actually is permanently injured after being spiked 50 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 5: in the face by by a male volleyball player. So 51 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 5: you know, this is craziness. And you know, like she 52 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 5: had said earlier, Riley, that flew the tidest turning. 53 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 4: There are hundreds of medals, championships, scholarships that have been 54 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 4: won by dudes who say I'm a girl now and 55 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 4: have denied the female athletes those those accolades and those opportunities. 56 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 4: That is absolutely bizarre and obscene. What's the San Diego 57 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 4: State's current stance as far as you can tell, Jim, Well, 58 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 4: we're playing San Jose State and their guy. 59 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, well so far radio silence out of San 60 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 5: Diego State. And unfortunately, you know, I have a hunch, 61 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 5: being another California school, they may go ahead with it. 62 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 5: But haven't heard anything yet. Yeah, we haven't heard anything 63 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 5: yet from them, but we're hoping, you know, November ninth 64 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 5: is you know, after the election, hellelujah. But you know, 65 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 5: hopefully we'll get some traction and maybe some of the 66 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 5: teammates are will say, hey, we just don't want to 67 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 5: compete against this. And I'm glad five teams has already 68 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 5: you know, shut down and not agreed to play San 69 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 5: Jose States. 70 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, quite a few teams. Quite a few teams 71 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 2: have forfeited. But some of the teams have said why. 72 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 2: But a number of the teams, way too many of 73 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 2: them don't say out loud why they're forfeiting, which I 74 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 2: find troubling. 75 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think, Jim correct me if I'm wrong. Some 76 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 4: of them, some of the administrators are actually fearing running 77 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 4: a foul of their progressive states laws on protecting transgender people. 78 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 5: Well, absolutely, and that hence California, you know, doing that. 79 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 5: But I do think, you know, both sides of the 80 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 5: aisle people think this is crazy and outrageous and shouldn't 81 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 5: be taking place. And can't you know, even believe why 82 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,600 Speaker 5: we're having to have this conversation. There's you know, anytime 83 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 5: there's a physical competition. Men are just more physically capable 84 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 5: than women, but you know, each in their own different ways, 85 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,040 Speaker 5: and those sports should be protected. 86 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 4: It's worth saluting some of the really courageous people in 87 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 4: this controversy, including the women, the young women who stood 88 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 4: up said we're not playing this game. Brooks Slusser, who 89 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 4: actually plays for San Jose State, has joined the lawsuit, 90 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 4: including eighteen women athletes, including Rigley Gaines. Gaines versus NC 91 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,359 Speaker 4: Double A is filed in the Federal Court in the 92 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 4: Northern District of Georgia and March alleging the NC DOUBLEA 93 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 4: rules on transgender women violate their Title nine rights. This 94 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 4: is heading for the Supreme Court and I cannot wait. 95 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm glad Joe brought up the laws because I 96 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 2: thought it was just cowardice on the part of these 97 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 2: various schools that wouldn't say why they forfeited. But dependent 98 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 2: on where you live, there are laws protecting things you 99 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 2: say about transgender athletes or discriminating. I mean, if you 100 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 2: announced out loud, we're quitting because you got a dude 101 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 2: on your team, you'd be in violation of the law. 102 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 2: So that's a problem. 103 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,679 Speaker 4: Right, Elections have consequences. Hey, I have one more note 104 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 4: on this topic. Jim as a former girls coach. I 105 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 4: can't shut up about this, and I won't shut up 106 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 4: about this ever. But there was a hit piece in 107 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:07,039 Speaker 4: the San Francisco Chronicle, uh bashing miss Lusser who he 108 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 4: just mentioned, Brooks Slusser, written by one Marissa in Gemmi, 109 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 4: who's a sports writer who doesn't appear to have ever 110 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 4: played sports, which is not necessary to be a sports 111 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 4: writer at all. 112 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 2: You might just be a big fan and knowledgeable. 113 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 4: But she is unquestionably an lgbt Q plus minus over 114 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 4: the power of three activist and is bashing a young 115 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:33,919 Speaker 4: woman who has the courage to say it's women's sports. 116 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 4: I'm not playing against a dude. Shame on you, Marissa, 117 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 4: Shame on you, San Francisco Chronicle. Anyway, Jim Desmond of 118 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 4: the San Diego County Bord of Supervisors is on the line. Jim, 119 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 4: we talked you a lot about Yes. 120 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 2: We did get this text. They could call the game 121 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 2: between San Diego and San Jose the Battle of the Bulge. 122 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,040 Speaker 2: I don't feel like that's a helpful test. Well look 123 00:06:55,080 --> 00:07:00,559 Speaker 2: at that, he laughs. You're incouraging, You're or about that. 124 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 2: That's a really funny joke. 125 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 4: So anyway, we've talked to you, Jim about a lot 126 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 4: of immigration related topics because and it gets less publicity 127 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 4: for some reason than Texas, probably because Gavin Newsom is 128 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 4: a deep blue governor and pretends illegal immigration isn't a 129 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 4: troublesome thing. But San Diego is an epicenter of illegal immigration. 130 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 4: What's going on on that front in your world? 131 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 5: Well, we are back up above capacity for the number 132 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 5: of people coming across the San Diego section of the border, 133 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 5: and so we are beyond capacity. And we were actually 134 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 5: told in San Diego County about a week ago that 135 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 5: they were going to start the street drop offs again. 136 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 5: They stopped the street drop offs in June of this year. 137 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 5: Went from September of last year's June of this year. 138 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 5: It was about one hundred and fifty five thousand people 139 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 5: they dropped in our streets in June. Because of Biden's 140 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 5: executive order, they cut back on that. But now we're 141 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 5: back up beyond capacity, and so it's happening now. Instead 142 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 5: of doing the street dropoffs, they are shipping migrants to Yuma, Arizona, 143 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 5: about three bus loads a day and about one flight 144 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 5: a day to various points in Texas to. 145 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 4: Just drop them off and essentially say to these cities 146 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 4: and towns you deal with them. 147 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 2: Well, it's not good on anyway. I've spent a fair 148 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 2: amount of time in Yuma traveling. I get off the bus, 149 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 2: have fanks. What am I supposed to do here? 150 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 5: I would imagine there's a lot of non you know, 151 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 5: non government organizations and people that help them get on 152 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 5: their way or travel to wherever it is they're going. 153 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 5: But the optics, which is I really think the reason 154 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,439 Speaker 5: they didn't start to drip off the street drop offs 155 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 5: again is the optics two weeks before an election, you know, 156 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 5: would have been terrible. And so what they're doing instead 157 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 5: of you know, dropping them on the streets, which quite 158 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 5: frankly we don't really want, but they're shipping them out quietly. 159 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 5: And so we were able to find this out from 160 00:08:55,679 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 5: our local border patrol agents and telling us and actually, 161 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 5: you know, we got pictures of impoarding airplanes. They don't 162 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 5: go through the terminal at San Diego Airport there on 163 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,719 Speaker 5: the cargo side, and so they don't have to They're 164 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 5: not seen as much as they board the airplanes and 165 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:13,319 Speaker 5: get shipped. 166 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 4: Out, Wow, it's unbelievable. Jim Desmond of the fifth Districts 167 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 4: of San Diego County. Jim, we appreciate the time. Keep 168 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 4: us up to date as news breaks and developments occur. 169 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:25,080 Speaker 4: We'd love to hear from you. 170 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:27,839 Speaker 5: Hey, thanks a lot. Jack and Joe appreciate it. 171 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 2: Oh, it's our pleasure as always. Thanks. If Trump wins, 172 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 2: it's going to be in large part because of the 173 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 2: immigration issue, which a number of people saw coming years ago, 174 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 2: but they weren't able to get there. The Democrats were 175 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 2: not able to get their arms around it. Probably on purpose. 176 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, and there's ambivalents on the Republican side in the 177 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 4: halls of power. As we've discussed many times. Don't let 178 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 4: the rhetoric fool you. The Republicans are way better on 179 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:57,959 Speaker 4: immigration than Democrats, but for reasons we've discussed again behind 180 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 4: the scenes, the protected class, the the moneyed class. They 181 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 4: want the immigrants. They just need to keep it cool 182 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 4: enough that the rest of us don't go crazy. Back 183 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 4: to the battle of a bulge. So you think where 184 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 4: the rubber is going to meet the road is there's 185 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 4: going to be somebody file a title nine. Thing about 186 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 4: women in sports on behalf of no dudes in sports, 187 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 4: and then it will butt up against one of these 188 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 4: pro trans laws where you can't deny a trands athlete 189 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 4: their human rights or something like that, and that the 190 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 4: two have to be enclashed and then climb up. 191 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:34,679 Speaker 2: You think that's. 192 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 4: No, No, it won't be necessary because the eighteen athletes 193 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 4: have already filed that federal lawsuit are so clearly going 194 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 4: to win that federal law superseding state law and title 195 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:48,200 Speaker 4: line superseding anything the Gavin Newsom's of the world can 196 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 4: cook up. Then there will be no more dudes in 197 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 4: women's sports. How quickly do you think that will have, 198 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 4: at least at the collegiate level. I think the Soups 199 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 4: have agreed to look at a case. I can't remember 200 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 4: which one this term or maybe next term, you know what. 201 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 4: I'll look that up and get back to you. But 202 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 4: it'll be within the next year, I think. 203 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 6: And Clarence Thomas is going to say, does this female 204 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 6: volleyball player have a penis? 205 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 2: Yes, your honor.

No, 307 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 4: you can't kill the baby unless there is a super 308 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 4: compelling reason. 309 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 2: That is Roe v Wade. 310 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 4: But she dare not admit that Roe v Wade contains 311 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 4: any limitations because of. 312 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 2: Her extremist wing. I guess. 313 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 4: I mean, anybody knows anything about Roe v Wade understands 314 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 4: that the limits are are a big part of it, 315 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 4: but she can't admit that. 316 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 2: Oh right, yeah, I got I guess. Or I actually 317 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 2: thought that is the for time I've ever thought that 318 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 2: she just doesn't know. Maybe has she not gone deep 319 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,360 Speaker 2: enough on this to know what the restrictions are that 320 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 2: can't be. 321 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 4: Or is she just that hyper cautious and the whole 322 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 4: even Trump has said over and over again, I would 323 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 4: veto that law, I would not sign it. And I 324 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 4: Project twenty twenty five, which is QAnon for lefties, got 325 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 4: nothing to do with me, but she's continuing to hammer that. 326 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 4: You don't offer stupid, ridiculous arguments because you're keeping the 327 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 4: good ones fresh. 328 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 2: Right, And if she ever did a press conference like 329 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,919 Speaker 2: Trump's doing right now, you know the media could piggyback 330 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 2: and just keep hammering on an issue where she'd really 331 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 2: be in an uncomfortable situation, which is why she doesn't 332 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 2: do these sorts of press conferences. Right, So you're comfortable 333 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 2: with the limits that are included in Roe v. Wade. 334 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 4: I support enshrining Roe v.

They're going to be writing. 340 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 2: Will they believe the vote count? We've got some polling 341 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 2: on that, arm Strong and Getty. 342 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:21,400 Speaker 9: In Vancouver, Washington, officials say hundreds of ballots were destroyed 343 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,119 Speaker 9: when they went up in smoke after a fire suppression 344 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 9: system inside did not work as it should have. A 345 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 9: small number of ballots were also damaged. In Portland, Oregon, 346 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 9: investigators believe this vehicle is connected to both fires, and 347 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 9: they're investigating a third similar incident at another nearby ballot 348 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 9: box earlier this month. This as the Department of Homeland 349 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,919 Speaker 9: Security warns some individuals online are now calling for the 350 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 9: sabotage of ballot drop boxes. 351 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,880 Speaker 2: So that's not a good development. Luckily, that's in two 352 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,439 Speaker 2: states where it's not going to be close likely, But 353 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:57,719 Speaker 2: you get that sort of thing happening in Pennsylvania or 354 00:18:57,840 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 2: Georgia and the elections close. 355 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, these people have cars and plane tickets. It wouldn't 356 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 4: surprise me if it does. And acting like it's a 357 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:12,680 Speaker 4: big mystery, Okay, In a couple of conservative suburbs of Portland, 358 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:17,440 Speaker 4: you have ballots being set aflame gee, who lights. 359 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 2: Things on fire around Portland? Let me think you could 360 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 2: have people on the right absolutely upset about that. Obviously, 361 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 2: here's some people on the left. Here's AOC. 362 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 9: It's very important for people to understand that these are 363 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 9: many January sixth rallies. 364 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 2: So she said, Trump's rally at Madison Square Gardens Sunday 365 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 2: night was a mini January sixth rally. Kamala is on 366 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 2: the Ellipse in DC today for her big speech where 367 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 2: She's gonna really drive home the point that Trump is 368 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,679 Speaker 2: Hitler fascist. Remember January sixth, et cetera. Other things to 369 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 2: worry about if Trump gets in with Project twenty twenty five. 370 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:55,919 Speaker 2: Here's wio Be Goldberg, all. 371 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:57,199 Speaker 4: Of you walking about you. 372 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 7: It's up. He's not going to be see not gonna 373 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:01,640 Speaker 7: you know, say. 374 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 2: Oh, you're with a white guy. I'm gonna keep you 375 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 2: from being deported. 376 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 5: No, you're gonna to. 377 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 2: Port you and put the white guy with someone else. 378 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 2: The man is out there. He part of Project twenty 379 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 2: five is gonna lead toward the end of interracial relationships. 380 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 4: What because he's gonna deport the dark person, so somebody else, 381 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 4: presumably a white person, can fill that role. I'm having 382 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 4: more and more trouble understanding whoopees fever dreams. 383 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 2: There's a lot of nutpicking that goes on on both sides. 384 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:38,640 Speaker 2: That's when you take the most extremest nut job views, 385 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 2: present them, and then act like that's what everybody on 386 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 2: the other side believes. And I never know which is 387 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 2: which if it's a good I mean, there's a reason 388 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 2: they do focus groups, right See, you talk to some 389 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 2: people and then you extrapolate that that's what people believe. 390 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 2: What is nutpicking and what is a focus group? I 391 00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 2: don't know. I don't know how you draw the line. 392 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:03,159 Speaker 2: I don't think quoting the hosts of the view is 393 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:07,919 Speaker 2: nut picking. You don't no Whoopy's a nut? 394 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:11,399 Speaker 4: Well, yeah she is, but she's not a carefully picked nut. 395 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 4: That's the point. If I walk into one of the 396 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 4: many almond orchards in central California and say that's a nut, 397 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 4: I'm not nut picking. The Democratic Party is an orchard 398 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:26,160 Speaker 4: full of nuts. 399 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,880 Speaker 2: As you have said for years, that's a horrible term. 400 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 2: We need to come up with a better tone. I know, 401 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 2: I know. I barely let it go when you said it. Oh, 402 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:38,640 Speaker 2: speaking of witch sounds like TikTok craze for high school boys. 403 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 4: Coming up, coming up. I am so torn. The nastier 404 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:53,880 Speaker 4: I phrase this, the funnier it is. But to be overtly, 405 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 4: gratuitously nasty for you good folks, you decent folks, you god. 406 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 2: And country people. 407 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 4: You don't need nasty talk in your ears. So I'm torn. Michael, 408 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:07,639 Speaker 4: do you have any thoughts? 409 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 3: No? 410 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 2: If it makes you grin, leave way to run against type. Michael, Wow, 411 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 2: what a jackass. Anyway, he's going to go. I'm going 412 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:28,640 Speaker 2: to go with a reasonably clean version. Okay, okay, if 413 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 2: you enjoyed putting drugs up here, butt vote, Harris Walls, Boy, 414 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 2: what's that get to do with a goofing? Jack? Staying 415 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:41,440 Speaker 2: your business for boofing? Polling on how people feel about 416 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 2: election day, which is one week from to day, and 417 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 2: if Trump wins the way polls show he could will 418 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,199 Speaker 2: know at the latest on Wednesday afternoon, but if it 419 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,920 Speaker 2: goes any other direction, it could be quite a few 420 00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 2: days or weeks. You know, they don't. I don't start 421 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 2: hand counting Pennsylvania ballots till that morning. For instance. Do 422 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 2: you trust the vote count? This is good news? Nearly 423 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:12,680 Speaker 2: eight and ten voters do. According to the USA Today 424 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:17,960 Speaker 2: Suffolk University poll, nearly eighty percent of people you got 425 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:22,440 Speaker 2: about forty percent very competent, confident, not competent, about thirty 426 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 2: six percent somewhat confident, which adds up to about eighty 427 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 2: percent of people feeling pretty good about it. Although one 428 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,959 Speaker 2: out of five people not believing the vote count is 429 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:36,880 Speaker 2: enough for a revolution. Really, that's dangerous. Certainly, where are 430 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,160 Speaker 2: you on that? I would be I'm a very confident. 431 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 2: I'm very confident. Yeah, I'm very confident too. I'm toward 432 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:45,919 Speaker 2: the lower end of very confident. I'm reminded. Excuse me. 433 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 2: And we'll be talking about this again next hour. If 434 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 2: you don't get Next Hour, grab it via podcast later 435 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 2: Armstrong and getting on demand, or subscribe to Armstrong and 436 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 2: getting on demand. You never miss anything. 437 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:59,199 Speaker 4: But Jeff Bezos was talking about how the media is 438 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 4: just in miserable shape in terms of people's trust of 439 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 4: the media. They have lower ratings than Congress, if you 440 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,119 Speaker 4: can believe that. And Bezos was saying, hey, it's a 441 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 4: two step process. You've got to be fair or unbiased, 442 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 4: and you've got to be perceived as being fair and unbiased, 443 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 4: and they're equally true. And I thought that was a 444 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:24,159 Speaker 4: very very good point. Likewise, and you can't get the 445 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 4: left to agree with this for good reason, in my opinion. 446 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 4: You have to have ballot security, dependable elections, and people 447 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 4: have to perceive that you have reliable elections. And the 448 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,920 Speaker 4: second one is very very important, and so much to 449 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:41,679 Speaker 4: the left wants to play fast and loose with that 450 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:44,199 Speaker 4: sort of thing. And granted on the right, claims of 451 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 4: elections being stolen when it's not valid has run rampant too. 452 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:51,160 Speaker 2: We really need to watch out for that. Absolutely, and 453 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:53,520 Speaker 2: some of you, I'm sure think I'm naive, but I 454 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 2: don't believe that we're going to have because there's always shenanigans. 455 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,960 Speaker 2: We're a big country. It'd be hard to have zero shnanics, 456 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 2: but enough to sway it one way or another, I'm 457 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 2: not I'm not really worried about that, hardly at all. 458 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 2: You will have some shenanigans and some incidents that appear shenanigus. 459 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 2: You break it down by party, it's different though. Seventy 460 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 2: percent of Harris voters are very confident, twenty five percent 461 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,879 Speaker 2: somewhat confident. That add up to ninety five percent. You 462 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 2: get to Republican voters, though Trump voters only thirty four percent. 463 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 2: So it depends on which party you are. Oh yeah, 464 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,199 Speaker 2: will you accept the outcome? Most say they will, but 465 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:40,639 Speaker 2: not everybody. If Harris loses her supporters, eighty eight to 466 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 2: seven said they were prepared to accept the results. According 467 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,959 Speaker 2: to this poll, if Trump loses his backers, sixty one 468 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 2: to twenty four would accept the vote the result. It's 469 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 2: over overwhelmingly will accept it, but a lot lower number 470 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 2: on that than on the air side. We'll see if 471 00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:04,159 Speaker 2: that holds true. Oh, we see if I'm not as 472 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,640 Speaker 2: optimistic as the polling would suggest. 473 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:12,680 Speaker 4: One more note on the Fascist revival meeting at Madison 474 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 4: Square Garden. Perhaps you heard Trump had a rally there 475 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 4: which is really reminiscent of the nineteen thirty nine Fascist rally, 476 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:24,880 Speaker 4: according to Newspeople with straight faces as we all, Gafaud 477 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 4: got this note from frequent correspondent Jeff Guys. Madison Square 478 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:33,120 Speaker 4: Garden was opened in nineteen sixty eight. It's the fourth 479 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 4: venue to bear the name Madison Square Garden. The first two, 480 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 4: opened in eighteen seventy nine and eighteen ninety, respectively, were 481 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,479 Speaker 4: located on Madison Square on East twenty sixth Street Madison Avenue, 482 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:45,160 Speaker 4: with the third Madison Square Garden further uptown at eighth 483 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 4: Avenue and fiftieth Street, So technically speaking, it's not even 484 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 4: the same building. The one that hosted the American pro 485 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 4: Nazi rally was held at the third Madison Square Garden 486 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,199 Speaker 4: on eighth Avenue between forty ninth and fiftieth. By the way, 487 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:59,880 Speaker 4: Democrats held their nineteen seventy six Democratic National Convention at MSG, 488 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 4: they're nineteen eighty Democratic National Convention in the nineteen ninety 489 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 4: two Democratic National Convention at MSG. Acting like a political 490 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 4: rally at MSG is by necess but unavoidably reminiscent of 491 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,920 Speaker 4: the Nazis is one of the most idiotic and hilarious 492 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:17,919 Speaker 4: things ever uttered. 493 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 2: I am almost willing to say it is the single 494 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:24,919 Speaker 2: dumbest thing to be a main topic of a presidential 495 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 2: election that I can remember in my life. 496 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,800 Speaker 4: Not to pick a favorite, but that's it's an Alzheimer 497 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:32,160 Speaker 4: Yes to people's opinions about violence. 498 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:35,400 Speaker 2: Two thirds of those surveyed were concerned about the possibility 499 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 2: of political violence on election day and afterward. Well, it's 500 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 2: pretty vague concerned about the possibility. Yeah, I am, of course, Yeah, 501 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:47,879 Speaker 2: I would. You're pretty optimistic if you're not even concerned 502 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 2: about the possibility, Okay, or you're in favor of it. True. 503 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 2: That includes twenty seven percent who are very concerned, thirty 504 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 2: nine percent who are somewhat concerned.
