WEBVTT - Juicy, Ripe Fruit! 0:00:01.840 --> 0:00:06.120 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 0:00:06.160 --> 0:00:11.200 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty, Armstrong. 0:00:10.760 --> 0:00:18.720 And Jetty and now he Armstrong and Yetty. 0:00:24.640 --> 0:00:35.680 Diet fifteen and twenty fifteen, twenty fifteen, or much of 0:00:35.720 --> 0:00:39.239 the months, I think it was, Yeah, that's rights suppressing. 0:00:39.560 --> 0:00:45.680 Yesterday, bumbuy, whispery croaky, Joe Biden trying to remember when 0:00:45.760 --> 0:00:51.040 his son passed away. I remember that was part of 0:00:51.040 --> 0:00:54.320 the one of the headlines when her report was released, 0:00:54.440 --> 0:00:58.240 in writing the White House sighting I can't remember national 0:00:58.240 --> 0:01:00.960 security reasons or something why we couldn't or the transcript, 0:01:01.320 --> 0:01:02.840 And now I think I know what I mean. 0:01:03.280 --> 0:01:06.520 It just revealed him confused and rambling and weak. Yeah. 0:01:06.560 --> 0:01:07.039 And as. 0:01:08.800 --> 0:01:10.840 The New York Times reported over the weekend on the 0:01:10.880 --> 0:01:16.160 her tapes coming out, uh, hearing him in her interview 0:01:16.280 --> 0:01:20.520 is revealing the former president's halting responses to questions by 0:01:20.560 --> 0:01:23.360 a special counsel show him exactly. I thought this was 0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:25.720 an interesting thing for the New York Times to rite, 0:01:25.720 --> 0:01:30.240 but true, the president's responses show him exactly as a 0:01:30.400 --> 0:01:35.560 majority of Americans believed him to be, and as Democrats 0:01:35.600 --> 0:01:38.800 repeatedly insisted he was not so. New York Times even 0:01:38.800 --> 0:01:43.160 in their seb headline saying at the time, a majority 0:01:43.160 --> 0:01:46.400 of Americans believed his brain didn't work. 0:01:47.040 --> 0:01:48.680 Yeah, long before the debate. 0:01:49.120 --> 0:01:52.440 It's kind of funny that you weren't like talking about 0:01:52.440 --> 0:01:53.600 that on a daily basis. 0:01:53.800 --> 0:01:57.240 But okay, you're right now. You're correct now. 0:01:57.800 --> 0:02:01.200 As we've said a thousand times, given the enormity of 0:02:01.240 --> 0:02:05.120 the story and how it's exactly what a free press 0:02:05.200 --> 0:02:08.720 is designed to cover, I mean to pass on that 0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:13.120 is just yea inexcusable, and it's it illustrates the point 0:02:13.200 --> 0:02:16.400 so completely. They are fully partisan hacks. 0:02:16.880 --> 0:02:18.760 I was actually thinking about this over the weekend, before 0:02:18.760 --> 0:02:21.000 we get into more of the hurt tapes and all 0:02:21.040 --> 0:02:25.280 that sort of stuff. You listening right now, ask yourself 0:02:25.320 --> 0:02:31.480 this question. Would you have been twisting your mind into 0:02:31.720 --> 0:02:37.320 not if this were a Republican or Trump, same situation, 0:02:37.400 --> 0:02:39.440 but it was Trump, would you have been twisting yourself 0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:43.760 into knots trying to pretend that he was still okay 0:02:44.840 --> 0:02:48.080 and could still run again and be president again? Jeez, 0:02:48.120 --> 0:02:50.800 I sure hope not from I'm talking about myself. I 0:02:50.840 --> 0:02:54.280 sure hope I wouldn't have been. But no, he's always 0:02:54.280 --> 0:02:57.200 had a stutter. Come on, what is wrong with you? 0:02:57.280 --> 0:02:58.160 Partisan hacks? 0:02:58.560 --> 0:02:59.520 Wo, I've been doing that? 0:02:59.639 --> 0:03:02.680 God, I hope not. Oh no, I wouldn't think so. 0:03:02.760 --> 0:03:07.000 I mean, unless you are really a cult of personality cultist. 0:03:07.480 --> 0:03:10.880 Because the gripe from you know, a lot of Democrats 0:03:11.639 --> 0:03:12.200 is that. 0:03:12.400 --> 0:03:14.880 Hey pretending otherwise screwed the pooch. 0:03:15.120 --> 0:03:15.400 M m. 0:03:15.600 --> 0:03:16.920 That's what loss is the election. 0:03:17.160 --> 0:03:19.959 Dean Phillips was yelling about it, the only guy with 0:03:20.040 --> 0:03:22.560 the guts to run in the primary against him, And 0:03:22.919 --> 0:03:28.160 I was just reminded of the you remember the great 0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:32.280 girations to get South Carolina to be the first Democratic 0:03:32.320 --> 0:03:33.360 primary state. 0:03:33.720 --> 0:03:37.320 Because it's more diverse and looks more like America. Blah 0:03:37.320 --> 0:03:37.880 blah blah. 0:03:37.880 --> 0:03:41.240 Well, no, it is because they knew if there was 0:03:41.480 --> 0:03:45.680 any contest whatsoever in New Hampshire and Iowa, Biden would 0:03:45.720 --> 0:03:49.560 lose and he would be exposed as a terribly weak candidate. 0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:51.480 But they knew the fix was into South Carolina and 0:03:51.480 --> 0:03:52.480 they could get him over the edge. 0:03:52.520 --> 0:03:53.400 But anyway, that's kind of. 0:03:53.400 --> 0:03:56.440 An unnecessary detail. Back to the rambling old Man. 0:03:56.560 --> 0:03:58.720 More from the New York Times analysis of the tapes 0:03:58.760 --> 0:04:01.800 that came out on Friday, in the audio recording. Mister 0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:04.920 Hurst's conclusion that a jury would see mister Biden as 0:04:04.960 --> 0:04:07.000 a sympathetic, well meaning elderly man with a poor. 0:04:06.880 --> 0:04:10.600 Memory is not merely valid, it is irrefutable. That's the 0:04:10.640 --> 0:04:12.640 New York Times. No, no, it's not. 0:04:15.120 --> 0:04:16.720 I like the way they're getting around to it now, 0:04:16.760 --> 0:04:17.960 but at least they're getting around to it. 0:04:17.960 --> 0:04:18.080 Then. 0:04:18.200 --> 0:04:19.960 Dan Ball's in the Washington Post. 0:04:20.800 --> 0:04:23.640 The truth is the public was on to Biden's decline 0:04:23.720 --> 0:04:28.400 long before the debate. Yeah, as he prepared for a 0:04:28.440 --> 0:04:31.680 re election campaign, few obstacles loomed larger than perceptions at 0:04:31.720 --> 0:04:34.320 his age and acuity made him unfit to serve a 0:04:34.360 --> 0:04:36.520 second term. It was there in black and white. A 0:04:36.640 --> 0:04:41.080 Washington Post ABC News poll in February of twenty three, 0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:46.280 that's what, five months before the debate, found that six 0:04:46.360 --> 0:04:50.480 and ten Democrats wanted someone other than other than Biden 0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:54.000 to be their nominee, which is an astonishing number for 0:04:54.040 --> 0:04:56.880 a sitting president and an electioneer. And it's difficult to 0:04:56.880 --> 0:05:00.040 believe that his age wasn't the motivating factor then all So, 0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:05.520 in February of twenty four, before the debate, found that 0:05:05.760 --> 0:05:09.359 two thirds of Americans said he did not have the 0:05:09.400 --> 0:05:11.679 mental fitness to be president again? 0:05:11.920 --> 0:05:14.279 Two thirds. That was in February. 0:05:14.839 --> 0:05:18.520 Yeah, yeah, I would love to ask the bigfoot media guys, 0:05:18.839 --> 0:05:20.680 hey see if you can this the riddles, See if 0:05:20.680 --> 0:05:23.719 you can puzzle this went out? There is only one 0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:30.039 class of Americans who didn't recognize Biden's mental decline, and 0:05:30.080 --> 0:05:31.320 we're talking about it openly. 0:05:31.360 --> 0:05:34.480 I'll give you a hint. It's a particular profession. Well, right, 0:05:34.600 --> 0:05:37.720 there's only one tiny, narrow segment. Can you name it? 0:05:38.040 --> 0:05:40.359 I really like Dan Balls with the Washington Post, but 0:05:40.760 --> 0:05:43.159 lovely Man the fact that he didn't bring it down 0:05:43.200 --> 0:05:46.120 to a paragraph where he kind of deals with the fact. 0:05:46.200 --> 0:05:51.560 How did two thirds of Americans know this months before 0:05:51.600 --> 0:05:54.720 the debate and we man missed it? I mean, how 0:05:54.760 --> 0:05:55.320 do you not? 0:05:55.800 --> 0:05:58.159 I don't get it right. All right, well, let's play 0:05:58.160 --> 0:05:59.840 some audio. Then we've got a bunch of follow ups 0:05:59.839 --> 0:06:02.479 in waiting. Why all of all of this matters? You know, 0:06:02.880 --> 0:06:08.599 I'm torn. Let's let's do fifty one Michael, nice and 0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:10.799 loud because it's kind of mumbly and quiet. 0:06:10.839 --> 0:06:16.680 But what's happened in the meantime is that. 0:06:19.240 --> 0:06:21.280 Has and. 0:06:23.120 --> 0:06:29.320 Trump gets elected in November of twenty seventeen, sixteen, twenty sixteen. 0:06:29.720 --> 0:06:36.840 All right, so have twenty seventeen here. 0:06:37.160 --> 0:06:39.680 That's when we left office in January. 0:06:40.480 --> 0:06:46.560 Okay, now, but that's when Trump gets sworn in. 0:06:47.520 --> 0:06:49.400 Bye, kid, happened. 0:06:50.360 --> 0:07:04.840 And in twenty seventeen, Oh, it passed. And this person. 0:07:07.920 --> 0:07:12.160 The whole not remembering when was the election? When's the inauguration? 0:07:13.000 --> 0:07:15.000 Why do I have twenty seventeen here? 0:07:17.040 --> 0:07:19.160 More from the analysis in the New York Times. Listen 0:07:19.160 --> 0:07:19.400 to this. 0:07:20.080 --> 0:07:22.840 A simple question about the documents that were stored at 0:07:22.840 --> 0:07:28.480 the Naval Observatory elicits an eleven minute response. It begins 0:07:28.480 --> 0:07:31.360 with a young mister Biden winning an international tourqu competition 0:07:31.400 --> 0:07:34.800 in law school, winds through an early legal case involving 0:07:34.800 --> 0:07:36.560 a twenty three year old man who lost part of 0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:40.560 his penis in an ore oil refinery accident, and concludes 0:07:40.560 --> 0:07:42.800 with mister Biden winning a seat on the New York 0:07:43.040 --> 0:07:46.640 on the Newcastle, Delaware City Council in nineteen seventy. Again 0:07:46.680 --> 0:07:50.360 and again, mister Biden's answers the prosecutor not as someone 0:07:50.480 --> 0:07:54.520 under federal investigation, but as an aging politician recounties a 0:07:54.600 --> 0:07:56.360 life story for posterity. 0:07:57.400 --> 0:07:57.880 Wow. 0:07:58.880 --> 0:08:02.080 Wow, it's a question, and he goes through an eleven 0:08:02.200 --> 0:08:07.040 minute this is my life, old man ramble. According to 0:08:07.040 --> 0:08:08.720 the New York Times, I haven't listened to the whole thing, 0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:11.360 but yeah, that's not normal. 0:08:12.400 --> 0:08:16.080 Fifty two Michael, the library has. 0:08:18.360 --> 0:08:23.680 A filing cabage in it, and it has built into 0:08:23.760 --> 0:08:26.360 the walls. I've built that home, built into the walls 0:08:27.080 --> 0:08:29.400 a space for a copy machine. 0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:29.920 Right. 0:08:30.840 --> 0:08:36.920 Yeah, they're calling this finish the stacks a fax machine. 0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:40.959 I have shells, perfect example right there. 0:08:41.160 --> 0:08:43.120 So you get to ask a question, and he goes 0:08:43.120 --> 0:08:45.720 into how he built a shelf for a fax machine, 0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:49.160 and he can't remember what a fax machine is, but 0:08:49.320 --> 0:08:51.960 they remind him, sir, it's called a fax machine. 0:08:52.000 --> 0:08:54.040 Next clip top, Ope. 0:08:53.800 --> 0:08:56.640 It's a shelby and the bottom open is a file. 0:08:56.920 --> 0:08:58.160 So the bottom so. 0:08:58.120 --> 0:09:02.200 When you open this up, first the door on. 0:09:02.040 --> 0:09:04.240 The first that we're there on the left, Oh my god. 0:09:05.080 --> 0:09:09.480 You see where there's a printer and there is a m. 0:09:09.640 --> 0:09:12.320 I call it the machine investing, the fact machine. 0:09:12.920 --> 0:09:15.440 And then I guess again the thing below I just 0:09:15.520 --> 0:09:16.520 I don't use anymore. 0:09:16.640 --> 0:09:18.719 Never sure this is a Wendy's. 0:09:20.360 --> 0:09:23.160 So John Fund, writing in the National Review on the 0:09:23.160 --> 0:09:26.080 other side of the Aisle from The New York Times says, 0:09:26.120 --> 0:09:29.480 we need congressional hearings to learn the full story about 0:09:29.960 --> 0:09:33.760 the great cover up. Uh and and why he is 0:09:33.800 --> 0:09:37.320 addressing isn't this just rear view mirror kicking of a guy. 0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:41.680 And then he goes into the transcript of her interview. Yeah, 0:09:41.920 --> 0:09:45.240 I would, I would agree, and you know, reveal some 0:09:45.640 --> 0:09:53.920 just devastating quotes from various folks, which we'll skip. 0:09:53.640 --> 0:09:55.400 For now just in the interest of time. 0:09:55.480 --> 0:09:57.280 But there are other good reasons why the House Oversight 0:09:57.320 --> 0:10:00.280 Committee's investigation is useful and necessary. Number One, there was 0:10:00.320 --> 0:10:03.480 indeed a massive cover up inside the White House, and 0:10:03.679 --> 0:10:07.520 they mentioned that The Atlantic had reported bluntly this week. 0:10:07.600 --> 0:10:10.080 Dozens of people in Biden's orbit suspected he was not 0:10:10.080 --> 0:10:12.880 physically or mentally equipped to be the President of the US. 0:10:13.040 --> 0:10:14.880 Then that's a good word, suspected. 0:10:15.440 --> 0:10:17.400 Yet they helped him seek that office and keep it 0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:20.840 when he couldn't reliably perform its duties, and then sickeningly 0:10:20.920 --> 0:10:23.920 try to return office. Biden to that office for four 0:10:23.920 --> 0:10:26.280 more years, even though they did not think that he 0:10:26.320 --> 0:10:28.199 could serve during the first term. 0:10:28.320 --> 0:10:33.800 Jock Armstrong suspected Joe Getty liked whiskey number two. Biden's 0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:37.120 condition began to deteriorate as early as a decade ago. 0:10:39.280 --> 0:10:41.760 Tapper and Thompson in the new book report those close 0:10:41.800 --> 0:10:44.160 to him say the first signs he was deteriorating emerged 0:10:44.200 --> 0:10:45.880 after the death of his beloved son bo. 0:10:45.920 --> 0:10:50.000 In twenty fifteen. Biden was really struggling. In twenty seventeen, 0:10:50.240 --> 0:10:54.000 his cognitive capacity seemed to have been failing him. The 0:10:54.040 --> 0:10:56.199 authors of the book make it clear that previous cover 0:10:56.280 --> 0:10:59.520 ups of the health problems of presidents Wilson, Roosevelt, Kennedy 0:10:59.679 --> 0:11:04.959 pale by comparison with the Biden cover up. Absolutely, if 0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:06.920 we had won, people in the Biden world believed there 0:11:06.960 --> 0:11:10.280 would have been a constitutional crisis, Thompson told The New Yorker, 0:11:10.440 --> 0:11:12.920 because clearly the people in his inner circle were not 0:11:12.960 --> 0:11:14.040 willing to seed power. 0:11:14.040 --> 0:11:15.600 How they knew that he would have to be removed 0:11:15.640 --> 0:11:16.040 from office. 0:11:16.080 --> 0:11:18.160 How about a national crisis if there had been an 0:11:18.200 --> 0:11:21.680 emergency that required a decision. During one of his moments 0:11:21.720 --> 0:11:24.200 where he's rambling on about the shelfy built for the 0:11:24.200 --> 0:11:25.400 fax machine. 0:11:25.160 --> 0:11:26.360 And then what do you call it machine? 0:11:26.440 --> 0:11:30.160 Yeah, Fund also points out that there is an unhealthy 0:11:30.200 --> 0:11:32.520 confluence of interest between the White House and the reporters 0:11:32.520 --> 0:11:35.640 who most frequently cover it, And he goes into a 0:11:35.679 --> 0:11:39.559 great deal of detail why this is unholy and unacceptable, 0:11:40.320 --> 0:11:42.920 and then he quotes like guys like Chris Solissa, former 0:11:42.960 --> 0:11:45.320 reporter for The Post and CNN, this was a cover up, 0:11:45.360 --> 0:11:47.520 plain and simple. For at least two years or close 0:11:47.520 --> 0:11:49.040 to its senior people in the White House knew that 0:11:49.080 --> 0:11:51.200 Biden's condition was bad enough that it needed to be 0:11:51.240 --> 0:11:53.640 concealed from people working the administration. 0:11:53.920 --> 0:11:55.640 He leaves out how compliant he was. 0:11:55.760 --> 0:11:57.559 Oh yeah, come on, then you got to get back 0:11:57.600 --> 0:12:01.480 to that poll that Dan Balls was quoting. Two thirds 0:12:01.480 --> 0:12:07.280 of Americans knew Ee's brain didn't work in early twenty four. 0:12:08.640 --> 0:12:10.160 You know what, There's a little more to be said, 0:12:10.160 --> 0:12:13.280 and I don't want to rush through it. One an 0:12:13.280 --> 0:12:16.160 account from someone who is covering him on the campaign 0:12:16.240 --> 0:12:21.200 trail in twenty twenty and said he was clearly losing 0:12:21.240 --> 0:12:24.600 it in twenty twenty, and one more list of names. 0:12:24.600 --> 0:12:26.560 Why this is important to talk about even though it's 0:12:26.600 --> 0:12:27.520 in the rearview mirror. 0:12:30.120 --> 0:12:33.760 Oh, absolutely, mostly because the media. We have to have 0:12:33.840 --> 0:12:37.160 a working media. We have to or we're doomed. The 0:12:37.200 --> 0:12:40.360 founding fathers knew that. It's always been true. We're just 0:12:40.360 --> 0:12:41.400 gonna give a minus. 0:12:42.080 --> 0:12:44.200 And you might want to not put in power the 0:12:44.200 --> 0:12:47.559 people who have lied about Biden's condition the most egregiously. 0:12:47.760 --> 0:12:49.840 And there's a list. Okay, we got lots of stuff 0:12:49.880 --> 0:12:52.560 to do today. Trump's gonna talk to Putin on the phone. 0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:55.680 This could be an historic phone call, among other things. 0:12:55.720 --> 0:12:56.439 On the way, stay here. 0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:03.040 A driver for Amazon was fired after she was caught 0:13:03.080 --> 0:13:07.280 on a ring camera defecating on a porch, said the homeowner. 0:13:07.400 --> 0:13:15.640 But that's what I ordered, he now, so will it's 0:13:15.679 --> 0:13:16.560 an awful joke. 0:13:17.240 --> 0:13:21.800 We'll be talking about Joe Biden's cancer they got diagnosed with, 0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:27.280 and more about all the kind of things around the 0:13:27.360 --> 0:13:29.880 diagnosis of it, what that might mean or not, and 0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:32.760 his brain, so his brain and his finility cover up. 0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:33.280 That's right. 0:13:34.720 --> 0:13:37.680 So Saturday Night Live, it was their season finale on 0:13:37.840 --> 0:13:41.679 Saturday Night. That was Colin Jost there. He is the 0:13:42.559 --> 0:13:45.800 head writer and hosts the news and is married to 0:13:45.880 --> 0:13:50.240 Scarlett Johansson, the famous actress, and she was the host 0:13:51.120 --> 0:13:54.840 and that was all fun. But they've started this tradition 0:13:55.040 --> 0:13:59.000 on Saturday Night Live several years back, where Colin Jost 0:13:59.679 --> 0:14:04.360 White guy and Michael Jay Black Guy. This matters write 0:14:04.440 --> 0:14:08.719 jokes for each other for the final episode that they 0:14:08.720 --> 0:14:10.600 have not seen ahead of time, and it has become 0:14:10.600 --> 0:14:12.880 a thing where they write jokes that will make each 0:14:12.920 --> 0:14:17.560 other look really, really bad and particularly racially. Michael Jay 0:14:17.600 --> 0:14:21.640 writes jokes that are really racist for Colin Jos to say, 0:14:23.160 --> 0:14:30.360 And it's a really interesting premise that has seemed to work, 0:14:31.080 --> 0:14:33.840 where then Colin Jos makes jokes you could never make 0:14:34.000 --> 0:14:36.240 under any other circumstances. 0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:38.240 People laugh at. 0:14:38.120 --> 0:14:44.640 Them, but nobody gets angry about it, because the point is, 0:14:44.680 --> 0:14:46.840 I don't even it's almost too complicated. 0:14:47.320 --> 0:14:48.840 Well, it's everybody. 0:14:49.040 --> 0:14:52.200 I mean, the basic premise of the thing is clear enough. 0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:56.880 Why that makes it entirely okay? It's the really interesting part. 0:14:56.920 --> 0:14:59.960 I guess, Well, I guess I'm more interested in the reverse. 0:15:00.360 --> 0:15:03.240 If you can make it okay with that little thing, 0:15:03.800 --> 0:15:06.240 then why can't it be okay, like just in general, 0:15:06.280 --> 0:15:07.280 to make that kind of joke. 0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:11.520 Of course, I don't mean that it's a joke, right, or. 0:15:11.440 --> 0:15:14.600 If Colin Jost were to do the joke, then let 0:15:14.600 --> 0:15:18.440 everybody go nuts. The lynch mob come from for him, then, 0:15:18.520 --> 0:15:21.800 say Michael Jay, wrote that, then would that be okay 0:15:21.960 --> 0:15:24.960 if you didn't know in advance, or look, let's examine this. 0:15:25.240 --> 0:15:28.160 So we've played them in the past and they're uncomfortable 0:15:28.200 --> 0:15:31.200 and funny. This year they were so over the top. 0:15:31.320 --> 0:15:33.800 I'm not comfortable playing them. I really am not. I 0:15:33.920 --> 0:15:36.440 was watch I was watching it thinking, we can't air that, 0:15:36.520 --> 0:15:38.480 we can't air that, we can't air that. This is 0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:40.680 the only one I thought we could air. So it 0:15:40.680 --> 0:15:43.040 goes to Colin jo joke written by Michael Jay. They 0:15:43.080 --> 0:15:44.840 put up on the screen a picture of some sort 0:15:44.840 --> 0:15:48.520 of monkey gorilla thingies, and then here is Colin Joe's joke. 0:15:49.080 --> 0:15:51.760 A new study finds that the hoops and grunts of 0:15:51.840 --> 0:15:55.640 Bonobo's shows signs of complex thoughts similar. 0:15:55.240 --> 0:15:56.440 To human language. 0:15:57.040 --> 0:15:59.600 Oh so like that awful halftime show. 0:16:08.600 --> 0:16:09.760 I thought that was pretty funny. 0:16:10.320 --> 0:16:17.120 Wow wow, Yeah, as a racist joke, we'll have to 0:16:17.800 --> 0:16:24.120 the whole jiu jitsu of because the crowd laughs, and 0:16:24.160 --> 0:16:27.600 I assume people at home are laughing, then why can 0:16:27.640 --> 0:16:30.120 we not if you're laughing, which is an enjoyable thing 0:16:30.160 --> 0:16:32.640 to do. I like laughing, You like laughing, People like comedy. 0:16:33.080 --> 0:16:35.680 If we can laugh at it, if we do the 0:16:35.880 --> 0:16:37.840 Judo of twisting this around. 0:16:37.960 --> 0:16:39.720 Why can't it exist otherwise? 0:16:40.560 --> 0:16:44.560 Yeah, I mean it's great topic. I happen to just 0:16:44.680 --> 0:16:50.720 become aware that black fatigue quote unquote went viral like 0:16:50.880 --> 0:16:53.200 last week on social media. I don't know that term, 0:16:53.440 --> 0:16:59.320 people complaining about aberrant behavior by black people. A number 0:16:59.320 --> 0:17:02.600 of people making the comment that will there's aparate behavior 0:17:02.920 --> 0:17:05.720 from every group of people on earth, which is unquestionably true. 0:17:06.000 --> 0:17:09.119 But there are plenty of black people posting it about it, 0:17:09.160 --> 0:17:14.399 which made it okay. The truth of it doesn't change, 0:17:14.440 --> 0:17:16.320 but the source matters in the. 0:17:16.240 --> 0:17:18.040 Modern world, Armstrong and Getty. 0:17:19.080 --> 0:17:24.640 Doesn't it take some time for prostate cancer to develop 0:17:24.760 --> 0:17:27.720 to point where it would spread to the bones? 0:17:27.800 --> 0:17:28.720 Oh, he's had. 0:17:28.560 --> 0:17:33.280 This for many years, maybe even a decade, growing there 0:17:34.000 --> 0:17:34.720 and spreading. 0:17:34.880 --> 0:17:35.400 That's right. 0:17:35.800 --> 0:17:38.760 So this is the leads story on the New York Post. 0:17:39.000 --> 0:17:43.359 The Scarborough interview with their doctor about Biden's cancer on 0:17:43.520 --> 0:17:44.840 MSNBC this morning. 0:17:46.960 --> 0:17:48.679 It goes on, he's. 0:17:48.640 --> 0:17:51.879 Most certainly you were saying, had it when he was 0:17:51.960 --> 0:17:53.400 president of the United States. 0:17:54.200 --> 0:17:56.960 Oh, yeah, he did not develop it in the last 0:17:57.640 --> 0:17:59.360 one hundred two hundred days. 0:17:59.440 --> 0:18:01.680 He had it while he was president. He probably had 0:18:01.680 --> 0:18:02.760 it at the start of his. 0:18:03.200 --> 0:18:09.520 Presidency in twenty one. Yes, that, I don't think there's 0:18:09.600 --> 0:18:11.040 any disagreement about that. 0:18:11.320 --> 0:18:14.120 So what is being implied or asked here? 0:18:16.280 --> 0:18:19.440 Josh Scarborough clearly had talked to somebody or just knows 0:18:19.480 --> 0:18:21.720 from his own cancer experienced him and his family that 0:18:22.359 --> 0:18:24.399 this was probably around a long time, So he wanted 0:18:24.440 --> 0:18:25.200 to make that. 0:18:26.680 --> 0:18:29.440 Obvious to people. Joe's not a. 0:18:29.600 --> 0:18:32.560 Very long time, and not because he wants people to 0:18:32.640 --> 0:18:37.720 understand how slow prostate cancer advances. 0:18:38.119 --> 0:18:39.600 He's hinting at something. 0:18:39.720 --> 0:18:45.920 Right, And I thought it was mostly just so, were 0:18:46.000 --> 0:18:51.320 they like not getting stuff tested that you should, that 0:18:51.400 --> 0:18:53.560 you would normally get tested when you're older because they 0:18:53.560 --> 0:18:56.280 didn't want to know? Or is this one of many 0:18:56.359 --> 0:19:00.679 things that they did know and hid. Brian Delter of 0:19:01.119 --> 0:19:04.480 CNN took it a step further, so we were playing 0:19:04.480 --> 0:19:06.840 the her tapes a little bit earlier. Those are the 0:19:06.880 --> 0:19:10.680 audio tapes Joe Biden when he was grilled years ago. 0:19:11.600 --> 0:19:13.880 We had read about them, but we hadn't heard them. 0:19:14.200 --> 0:19:19.040 They came out on Friday. The New York Times analysis was, well, 0:19:19.080 --> 0:19:21.400 here's proof that his brain didn't work a long long 0:19:21.480 --> 0:19:24.200 time ago. I mean, there's no getting around it. Guy 0:19:24.400 --> 0:19:26.800 was in no position to be president or running for president. 0:19:26.920 --> 0:19:29.000 That's what the New York Times took from the her tapes. 0:19:29.840 --> 0:19:33.320 Brian Stelter of CNN says he's questioning the timing of 0:19:33.440 --> 0:19:39.480 Joe Biden's cancer diagnosis announcement, insisting that it was extraordinary 0:19:39.560 --> 0:19:42.359 that the news broke just as the former president was 0:19:42.400 --> 0:19:45.639 battling an onslaught of criticism on the cover up of 0:19:45.680 --> 0:19:47.520 his cognitive decline. 0:19:47.160 --> 0:19:48.160 While in the White House. 0:19:48.440 --> 0:19:51.200 This timing is too much, Stelter said during an appearance 0:19:51.280 --> 0:19:54.359 on CNN yesterday. We know from the statement from his 0:19:54.440 --> 0:19:58.520 personal spokesman, Biden learned I'm using finger quotes on that 0:19:58.560 --> 0:20:01.000 one of the diagnosis on Friday. 0:20:01.560 --> 0:20:03.080 What was the biggest story. 0:20:02.760 --> 0:20:06.199 On Friday, Stelter says on CNN, it was the release 0:20:06.240 --> 0:20:08.679 of those audio excerpts from his conversations. 0:20:09.760 --> 0:20:12.320 I'm sorry, it's just too much to have, Brian Stelter, 0:20:12.760 --> 0:20:15.439 you know, leap from the side of the criminals to 0:20:15.480 --> 0:20:17.600 the cops and saying it's time we did something about 0:20:17.640 --> 0:20:18.680 these criminals. Yeah. 0:20:18.720 --> 0:20:20.560 I don't know if I can eat and that is 0:20:20.600 --> 0:20:22.840 an excellent story that I'm all over, But I know 0:20:22.920 --> 0:20:25.240 if I can get there, He might be right. 0:20:26.600 --> 0:20:30.600 He might absolutely be right. So did the Biden people 0:20:30.720 --> 0:20:33.199 hang on to this? Have they known he had this 0:20:33.320 --> 0:20:35.000 cancer for years? 0:20:37.000 --> 0:20:39.800 It wouldn't surprise me, given the quality of his medical care. 0:20:39.880 --> 0:20:42.440 If you listen to the show, you know, I'm always 0:20:42.600 --> 0:20:47.120 shooting down the hole the timing sususpicious conspiracy because there's 0:20:47.160 --> 0:20:50.240 a story every day that a White House would like 0:20:50.280 --> 0:20:52.359 to cover up. I mean, there's always a negative story 0:20:52.359 --> 0:20:54.840 out there. So people if something comes out it's, oh, 0:20:55.000 --> 0:20:58.639 suspicious timing with oil prices going up or whatever it is, 0:20:59.160 --> 0:21:02.800 and I always say, think, whatever this will though, this 0:21:03.880 --> 0:21:08.040 is something they had to have had they had to There's. 0:21:07.840 --> 0:21:10.520 No way they just found out he's got prostate cancer. 0:21:11.200 --> 0:21:14.840 And I think the takeaways pretty obvious because a prostate 0:21:14.880 --> 0:21:18.200 cancer is in most cases extremely slow moving. You can 0:21:18.240 --> 0:21:20.760 live with it, you can deal with it, keep an 0:21:20.800 --> 0:21:22.880 eye on it, that sort of thing in many many 0:21:22.880 --> 0:21:27.159 cases anyway, And he would absolutely have Biden would have 0:21:27.200 --> 0:21:30.240 been doing a favor to say, hey, fellas, it's important 0:21:30.240 --> 0:21:33.400 you get the exam, talk to your doctor, blah blah blah. 0:21:33.560 --> 0:21:35.560 Men's health right. We got a bointh of it right, 0:21:36.040 --> 0:21:36.639 and the rest of it. 0:21:36.720 --> 0:21:38.720 And the reason they didn't was because there was a 0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:43.639 perceipe a perception based on well everything, that Joe Biden 0:21:43.720 --> 0:21:45.639 was unfit for another term in office. 0:21:45.680 --> 0:21:47.520 I would argue he wasn't fit for the first term 0:21:47.520 --> 0:21:50.359 in office. But yeah, so it all fits together. 0:21:50.400 --> 0:21:52.879 It's I don't know, it seems fairly obvious to me 0:21:53.040 --> 0:21:54.520 with the book coming out. 0:21:54.359 --> 0:21:56.440 And the herd tapes and everything like that. 0:21:56.720 --> 0:22:02.120 So Megan McCain tweeted this out John McCain's daughter, maybe 0:22:02.160 --> 0:22:05.120 remember she tweeted this out over the weekend. And she's 0:22:05.160 --> 0:22:07.919 a political I mean, she's on talk shows all the time. 0:22:08.560 --> 0:22:11.160 She's a regular on Halprin's podcast and that sort of stuff. 0:22:11.600 --> 0:22:13.399 I don't know if it's just my being biased or 0:22:13.440 --> 0:22:15.720 my background, but I don't want to hear anything else 0:22:15.720 --> 0:22:19.480 about Biden's health cover up, tell All's interviews with staff, etc. 0:22:19.840 --> 0:22:22.480
