1 00:00:01,840 --> 00:00:05,600 Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio of the 2 00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:10,240 Speaker 1: George Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty. 3 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:25,680 Speaker 2: Armstrong and Getty and he Armstrong and Eddy. So we 4 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:27,760 Speaker 2: kind of have some breaking news here. 5 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:32,159 Speaker 1: Trump with a social media that's a truth social thing, 6 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:35,200 Speaker 1: so whatever you call that message that he puts out. 7 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:39,919 Speaker 1: He said, after speaking with the President Shinbaum of Mexico, 8 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,360 Speaker 1: I have agreed that Mexico will not be required to 9 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: pay tariffs on anything that falls under the USMCA agreement. 10 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 2: Our relationship has been a very good one. 11 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 1: We're working hard together on the border, both in terms 12 00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 1: of legal aliens and fentanyl, et cetera, et cetera. So 13 00:00:55,200 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 1: backing off that until April second, and so Mexico has 14 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 1: said they're gonna hold off on there. They were gonna 15 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: Sunday announce their tariffs on US as part of the 16 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:10,759 Speaker 1: trade war, but so that's off and then announced overnight. 17 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:16,040 Speaker 1: I guess they had excluded cars, American cars and the 18 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 1: three big car makers from Canada or Mexican tariffs to 19 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:20,480 Speaker 1: try to get that worked out. 20 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 3: So it's all very fluid, yeah, and an odd way 21 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 3: to negotiate. But I'm kind of pleased, as often with 22 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 3: Trump chaos madness, that. 23 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 1: It really is a I'm divorcing you. What, I'm divorcing 24 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: you as of tomorrow at noon, divorcing you. And then 25 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: later that day you say, if you start allowing me 26 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 1: to park my car in the garage in your car 27 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: on the. 28 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 2: Driveway, I'll take a look at this again. 29 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: Then you say, four days a week, I'll start parking 30 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: my car in the driveway. 31 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 2: Okay, the divorce is. 32 00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 3: Off exactly, and the divorce never happens generally. But again, 33 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 3: it's an interesting technique. But how many times can you 34 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 3: do that? 35 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:08,959 Speaker 1: I would think, like the third time you say I'm 36 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,239 Speaker 1: divorcing you, it's a how you just roll your eyes? 37 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,079 Speaker 1: I mean, because this is round two or three of 38 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 1: deadline for tariffs. Remember the thing on Columbia, and it works. 39 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: They did agreed to take their illegals back. 40 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 3: Well, and if it's not a giant tariffs, it's threats 41 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 3: to like confiscate your territory be it Panama or Greenland 42 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 3: or what have you, and it ends up in a 43 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 3: much saner place generally. Again, I'm not sure that's the 44 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 3: greatest way to negotiate. It depends on who you're talking about. 45 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,799 Speaker 3: I hate the idea of and this is undeniable that 46 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 3: this has happened, whipping up anti American sentiment in Canada. 47 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 3: I just I don't like that idea. You know, Canada 48 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 3: is goofy and screwed up in a couple of different ways. 49 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 3: But they're fundamentally nice people and a good ally and 50 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 3: we trade with them a lot, so let's be buddies anyway. Oh, 51 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 3: we'll see how it plays out. Seeing of giant political 52 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 3: rock stars Gavin Newsom, the governor of California. 53 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 4: Perhaps you've heard of him. 54 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 3: He is so hot for the presidency he has to 55 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 3: rearrange his pants to hide his arousal. 56 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 5: You. 57 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:21,079 Speaker 3: He is campaigning in half a dozen different ways every 58 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 3: single day to be the twenty twenty. 59 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 4: Eight Democratic nominee for president. 60 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 3: The latest incarnation of that urge is his new podcast, 61 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 3: which is being promoted by our friends at iHeart Media. 62 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 3: And the idea of the podcast is that he is 63 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 3: engaging with figures on the right, including maga folks, enjoying 64 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 3: about policy and ideas and that sort of thing. And 65 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 3: in short, I'll cut to the punchline, coming off as 66 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 3: a thoroughly open minded moderate governor, which is something else 67 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 3: as he is governed to the left of Trotsky. So 68 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 3: on the podcast the other day and we've got a 69 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 3: clip for you, he told his guest Charlie Kirk of 70 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 3: Turning Point USA, notable mega e right wingy thinker, speaker, guy, 71 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 3: very very very smart. 72 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 6: Uh. 73 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 3: Don't always agree with Charlie, but he's a provocative guy 74 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 3: in a world where you got to cut through anyway. 75 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 7: Uh. 76 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 3: He told Charlie Kirk that he was now against biological 77 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 3: men and women's sports. 78 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 4: What I know. 79 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,919 Speaker 3: Are slapping their foreheads. Wait, what, he's not crazy about 80 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 3: the whole pronounce thing. He says, like everybody in government 81 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 3: and the universities has their damn pronouns on their emails. Okay, 82 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 3: that he doesn't like the term latenx seems phony. 83 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,359 Speaker 1: Well, he's right about all these things. He's just said. 84 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 1: His new patients. 85 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 3: Telling Charlie Kerric the whole defunding the police not good. 86 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 3: Cancel culture now and agreed, Oh there have been problems 87 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 3: with BLM definitely. 88 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah. 89 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 3: So the obvious comment to this I will credit to, 90 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 3: uh Chris Nicholson. OOSA is not a big time tweeter, 91 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 3: but he said, I kind of respect, how unapological I 92 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 3: kind of respect how unapologetically two faced Newsome is. Here 93 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 3: He's like, yeah, I'm a politician. I shift with the wind. 94 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 3: What do you expect? I'm with the winners now. Yeah, yeah, 95 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 3: that's that's what he's saying. Another comment, if they made 96 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 3: a prototype for cynical politician trademark, they'd use him for 97 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 3: the mold. 98 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 4: It's absolutely true. Here he is talking to Charlie Kirk. 99 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 6: It's like, you right now should come out and be like, 100 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,039 Speaker 6: you know what, the young man who's about to win 101 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,720 Speaker 6: the state championship in the long jump in female sports, 102 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 6: that's that that shouldn't happen. You as the governor should 103 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 6: step out and say no, no, And I appreciate, and 104 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 6: but like, would you do something like that, would you 105 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 6: say no men in female sports? 106 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 7: Well, I think it's an issue of fairness. I completely 107 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 7: agree with you on that. So that's easy to call 108 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 7: out the unfairness of that. There's also a humility and 109 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 7: a grace. You know that that these poor people are 110 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 7: more likely to commit suicide, have anxiety and depression, and 111 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 7: the way that people talk down tooble communities is an 112 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,719 Speaker 7: issue that I have a hard time with as well. 113 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 7: So both things I can hold in my hand. How 114 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 7: can we address this issue with the kind of decency 115 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 7: that I think you know, it's inherent in you, but 116 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 7: not always expressed. 117 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 3: I used to call Gavin Newsom a lungkhead, and that 118 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 3: was misplaced. He is very canny, very smart in his way, 119 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:30,280 Speaker 3: completely phony a moral I mean, that was just that 120 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 3: was a red herring. How about this, I'm not going 121 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 3: to talk down to anybody. If you're a male, you 122 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 3: can't play in female sports. 123 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 1: The whole trans thing of if you don't go along 124 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 1: with all of it, they'll kill themselves, which is like 125 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: a hell of a moral hostage taking things sort of game. 126 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 2: Who came up with that? It was very clever. It 127 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:53,239 Speaker 2: worked for a long time. 128 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 3: Oh yeah yeah, moral arguments and fear and guilt to 129 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 3: motivate you to go along with the radical program. The 130 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 3: interesting thing about heavy, though, is he didn't say that. 131 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 3: He just referred to it obliquely. That's why he's so canny. 132 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 3: He wasn't gonna make that crazy claim. He just wanted 133 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 3: it out there. Yeah, pretty trump mask actually are yes. Yeah, 134 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 3: these people are disturbed, and disturbed people tend to have, 135 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 3: you know, worse outcomes. Yeah, undeniably it is. It's the 136 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 3: talking down to vulnerable populations that. 137 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 2: What are we talking about. 138 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 3: We're talking about beating a crap out of women on 139 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 3: a sports field. 140 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 2: I was having this conversation with my kids the other 141 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 2: day about, uh, they. 142 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: Are talking about getting into me, getting into politics ever 143 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 1: or anything like that, if I ever thought about it 144 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: or whatever, and on how as far as I can tell, 145 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 1: it's impossible to be at any very high level of 146 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: politics without being phony, at a level I would never 147 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: be comfortable with. 148 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 2: I just don't think you can do it. 149 00:07:56,160 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: Maybe you can be mayor of some smaller birds without 150 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 1: compromising anything. 151 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 2: You might be able to do that. 152 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: But if you rise very high at all, you're gonna 153 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 1: have to You're gonna have to play that game at 154 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: some point. 155 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 2: And I just I just am not built that way. 156 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: And I was thinking to e Xamp I'm listening to 157 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: right now the book Thirteen Days by Lawrence Wright. 158 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 2: I really like Lawrence Wright's stuff.

But his campaign did it, 174 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: and he obviously wouldn't have allowed his cam But I thought, wow, 175 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: even freaking. 176 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 2: Jimmy Carter, and this is not a knock on him. 177 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: Like I just said, you cannot rise to a high 178 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,839 Speaker 1: level of office without playing that game at some level. 179 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 2: You just can't. 180 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,319 Speaker 1: So that's why I give some leeway to the Gavin 181 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: Newsoms and Donald Trump's, Jimmy Carter's whoever who do this, 182 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: because I don't think it's possible to become a senator, 183 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,839 Speaker 1: a governor, certainly a president without playing that. 184 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 2: Game at some level. 185 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I agree with you. 186 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 3: At the same time, calling them on it aggressively is 187 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 3: how we prevent what I was about to describe, and 188 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 3: that is, if you do that and you win, then 189 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 3: you get to do the things that matter. 190 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 4: As Charles Kronhammer r. 191 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 1: Right, that's what Jimmy Carter would, I guarantee you, that's 192 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 1: what he was thinking at the time to make himself 193 00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: be able to sleep at night, was the state the country. 194 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 1: It'll be better off if I'm in charge. And Okay, 195 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 1: so I have to do this little thing. Ultimately it 196 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 1: will be a win. 197 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 3: And indeed, in Jimmy Carter's case, I could see him saying, 198 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 3: and if I can allow my campaign to blow a 199 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 3: couple of dog whistles at the racists and I win. 200 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 3: I can do great things to promote the health and 201 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 3: welfare of black. 202 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 4: Americans or black Georgians or whatever. 203 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 3: Right, And the racists they're gonna hate that, but they're 204 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 3: gonna help me do it. 205 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 4: And ain't that sweet? 206 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 3: And so again, to get to do the things that matter, 207 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 3: you've got to put yourself on some very shaky moral ground, 208 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 3: which you know, depending on how you handle it, might 209 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 3: end up being a moral good. But the reason you 210 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 3: have to call people out and criticize them for it 211 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 3: is to make sure they don't slide too far. I'm 212 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 3: on that moral ground and end up, you know, being 213 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 3: just flat evil. The problem is I Havevin Newsom, since 214 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 3: he's soulless and has no principles like Kamala Harris is, 215 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,199 Speaker 3: you know, and he was a pretty moderate Democrat when 216 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 3: he came up, and some people say he would that 217 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:08,839 Speaker 3: was that's the real Gavin.

And there's plenty of music out there. 336 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 1: If you're not digging this, there's plenty of other stuff. 337 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 1: So Trump with a pretty forceful tweet yesterday about a 338 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 1: deadline for Hamas. 339 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,120 Speaker 2: If you haven't heard this, among other things on the way, 340 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 2: stay with. 341 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 1: Us, Armstrong and getty. 342 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 5: With Phase one now concluded, uncertainty around phases two and three, 343 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 5: Israel already blocking humanitarian aid to Gaza to pressure Hamas, 344 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 5: and now Trump comes in here with this threat to 345 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 5: not only let all hell break loose, but to send 346 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 5: Israel everything it needs quote. 347 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:34,879 Speaker 2: To finish the job. 348 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 5: And indeed we have gotten a response from a Hamas 349 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 5: spokesman who says, quote, these threats complicate matters regarding the 350 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:45,120 Speaker 5: ceasefire agreement and encourage the occupation government that means Israel 351 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,439 Speaker 5: not to implement the agreement. And he then goes on 352 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 5: to urge the US administration to pressure Israel to enter 353 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,439 Speaker 5: the second stage as stipulated in the agreement that was 354 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 5: indeed backed by the United States. 355 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 1: I like the fact that anybody quote what Hamas thinks 356 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 1: is if that is a legitimate commentary. 357 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:09,639 Speaker 3: Name the sorts of negotiations that are appropriate when you 358 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,679 Speaker 3: know the other side is not negotiating in good faith. 359 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,120 Speaker 1: So trance or is there aren't any Trump met with 360 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,919 Speaker 1: a bunch of hostages that had been released in the 361 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:23,360 Speaker 1: Oval Office yesterday and heard their stories, so in this 362 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 1: and right afterwards, and I imagine he was pretty worked 363 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 1: up emotionally having heard the stories. When he tweeted this out, 364 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:35,159 Speaker 1: Shalom Hamas means hello and goodbye. You can choose. 365 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 2: That's a pretty good opening. 366 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:42,160 Speaker 1: Release all of the hostages now, not later, and immediately 367 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 1: return all the dead bodies of the people you murdered, 368 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:48,160 Speaker 1: or it's over for you over in all caps only 369 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 1: sick and twisted people keep bodies, and you are sick 370 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:51,440 Speaker 1: and twisted. 371 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:52,359 Speaker 2: Exclamation point. 372 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 1: I'm sending Israel everything it needs to finish the job. 373 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 1: Not a single Hamas member will be safe if you 374 00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 1: don't do as I say. I met with your former hostages, 375 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 1: whose lives you've destroyed. This is your last warning. Exclamation 376 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 1: point for the leadership. Now is the time to leave 377 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 1: Gaza while you still have a chance. Also, are the 378 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,439 Speaker 1: people of Gaza a beautiful future awaits. But do not, 379 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 1: but not if you hold hostages. If you do, you 380 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 1: are dead. All caps make a smart decision. All caps, 381 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: release the hostages now, or there will be hell to 382 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:24,639 Speaker 1: pay later. 383 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:29,159 Speaker 2: All Caps. It doesn't have a timeline on it. 384 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 1: It doesn't say by tonight or Saturday, or the end 385 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 1: of the month or whatever. Just as now, I'm reminded, 386 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,919 Speaker 1: and it's so simple of a piece. Who wrote it 387 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: for the Free Press I can't remember, but and it was. 388 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:47,119 Speaker 1: It was very long and very detailed and went through 389 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 1: all sorts of episodes of history. 390 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:50,160 Speaker 4: But the history of. 391 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:56,679 Speaker 3: Someone launching an unprovoked attack on a neighbor went in 392 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 3: a time of peace and being defeated is that you 393 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:06,439 Speaker 3: lose your sovereignty, your land or both every single time 394 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 3: through history. There's just there is no exception. How could 395 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 3: there be an exception except Israel is supposed to now 396 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,320 Speaker 3: re engage and talk about a two state solution. Ha ha, 397 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 3: He says, completely without humor. 398 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 1: Even if there is an exception, it will be a 399 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: blip and then historically forgotten. When Israel then says, Okay, 400 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,160 Speaker 1: that's it. I don't care what anybody says about anything. 401 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 1: We're going to completely rid this area of all human beings. 402 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 3: Yeah. I read another scholarly piece on how in a 403 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:50,159 Speaker 3: number of those instances and or land disputes, one side 404 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 3: one decisively and the other lost and accepted it and 405 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 3: adjusted to it, and their people lived happy, productive lives 406 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,880 Speaker 3: and the bloodshed and did the people. 407 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 4: Of a country X. 408 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 3: I'm not going to get into specifics because they don't 409 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:06,159 Speaker 3: want to open a can of worms, but the people 410 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,440 Speaker 3: of country X, who were defeated and lost some lander, 411 00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 3: sovereignty or whatever, went on to have a much much, 412 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:14,879 Speaker 3: much better faith than the people in Gaza. 413 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 1: So Mark Alpern in his newsletter today to Trump's aggressive threat, 414 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,679 Speaker 1: and I'm not using threat perjorada. I think it was 415 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 1: a threat, he said, a lot of people will say 416 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 1: Trump blusters about the Middle East all the time. 417 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 2: Watch closely. This time could be different, and for real. 418 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 1: I think he's got to follow through or allow Israel 419 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 1: to follow through at this point. 420 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,199 Speaker 4: Yeah, he made a similar vow several weeks ago. A 421 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 4: few weeks ago. 422 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, but that was. 423 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:50,720 Speaker 1: They had interrupted the peace process Hamas had. He said, 424 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 1: all the hostages need to come back. Israel re engaged 425 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 1: with the peace process as laid out in the agreement, 426 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: with the number of hostages and everything like that. So 427 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 1: I think that gave him a pat But yeah, I 428 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 1: don't think there are any caveats in this one. 429 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,880 Speaker 3: No, this would be you very much like Obama's red 430 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:08,680 Speaker 3: line that you can play hopscotch. 431 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 1: Yes, you'd like yes, Yeah, that would be a problem anyway. 432 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: So we'll see how this turns out. 433 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:14,920 Speaker 4: Oh. 434 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: I got a interesting text from a friend of mine. 435 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: It's something their kid is being taught in school. Oh boy, 436 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 1: this is from their work book at school. I meant 437 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 1: to ask what class is this because it kind of matters. Uh, 438 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:41,399 Speaker 1: it says, why does my first grader need to know 439 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:42,159 Speaker 1: the word negro? 440 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:44,200 Speaker 2: That is what they said. 441 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:50,919 Speaker 1: But so the there's one page from the workbook with 442 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: a picture of baseball team from the Negro Leagues, and 443 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:57,160 Speaker 1: it says the Monarchs were a team in the Negro League. 444 00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: Underline the phrase that shows the events are told in 445 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 1: a onological time order. And then the next page it 446 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 1: says most baseball fans cheered for Robinson, some booed they 447 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:10,120 Speaker 1: did not like having an African American player in the league. 448 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 2: And then it gets into Negro and what bood means. 449 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,919 Speaker 1: It sounds like it's, oh, it's vocabulary, so it's a 450 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 1: reading thing. Isn't this the definition of dei? So you've 451 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 1: got that's what dei is. You got a class where 452 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 1: you're trying to teach a kid to read, and you 453 00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:28,879 Speaker 1: put in all this stuff about the Negro Leagues and 454 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: how there are so many racists that they booed Jackie 455 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 1: Robbinson be baseball player. Okay, maybe you need that in 456 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 1: your social studies class or history class at some point 457 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 1: when you're older. But first grader's reading, No, this is 458 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 1: not looking in every class. This is not the easiest 459 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 1: best way to teach a first grader to. 460 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 3: Read microbiology, algebra, astronomy, or get in every class, indoctrinate constantly. 461 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 1: That America is a bad country and racist, and yeah, 462 00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 1: right right crazyh yeah, yeah, it is crezy. 463 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:08,159 Speaker 3: Well, it's it's ugly and insidious. It's entirely intentional. On 464 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 3: the one hand, the activists, and then it's a bunch 465 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,640 Speaker 3: of softtheads who who think they're doing the right thing. 466 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,639 Speaker 3: They've been persuaded by the moral arguments, not knowing that 467 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:17,440 Speaker 3: they're being used as tools by Marxists. 468 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 4: But I don't know. 469 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 3: All we can do is keep spreading the word and 470 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 3: empower y'all to fight against it when you find it. 471 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:24,639 Speaker 4: Because they're wrong. 472 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:28,159 Speaker 3: They're wrong morally, they're wrong historically, that they're just, and 473 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:29,880 Speaker 3: they're certainly wrong educationally. 474 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:32,680 Speaker 4: There's no arguing with that. Oh that reminds me. 475 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 3: There is a story whereas that ah Minnesota state employees 476 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:42,360 Speaker 3: are taught at their various indoctrinations sessions that they are 477 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 3: swimming in the waters of white supremacy and that the 478 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 3: Republican Party quote is overtly and boldly claiming a white 479 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 3: supremacy autocratic agenda.

We are all swimming in 501 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 3: the waters of white supremacy culture. Wow, this is you know, 502 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:20,160 Speaker 3: what's interesting is the sort of rhetoric that flies in 503 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 3: the on the left, because generally speaking, people of the 504 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,680 Speaker 3: left are a little more dreamy and poety, and people of. 505 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 2: The right are a little more do the math. 506 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:35,919 Speaker 3: But white supremacy is a project of psychic conditioning and 507 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 3: toxic belonging that not only colonizes minds and bodies, but 508 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,679 Speaker 3: also the land and the water and the sky and 509 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:48,639 Speaker 3: the air we breathe. This construction of white supremacy is 510 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:52,120 Speaker 3: alive and well. For just one example, we're all living 511 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,560 Speaker 3: through a period where the US Republican Party is overtly 512 00:26:54,600 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 3: and boldly claiming a white supremacy autocratic agenda. Oh, they 513 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 3: go through the list of things that are clearly white supremacy. 514 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 3: It's the usual suspects, the pursuit of perfection, the value 515 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 3: of objectivity and rationality over the emotional. So my little 516 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,440 Speaker 3: screen there was that was overt white supremacy saying, let's 517 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 3: do the math and understand precisely what we're doing and 518 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 3: be realized since. 519 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 2: This seems so racist to me. 520 00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 1: This is one of those It's like that comedian we 521 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: play where the clansmen and the woke person agree because 522 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 1: it seems to me that a klansman would say, shone 523 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:35,399 Speaker 1: up on time caring about facts, that's white people's stuff. 524 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 3: Right, yeah, yeah, you're absolutely right and racist and woke. Meet. 525 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 3: Let's see. So these are things that are white supremacy. 526 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 3: Pursuit of perfection, value of objectivity and rationality over the emotional, 527 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 3: the belief that progress is measured by being bigger and 528 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 3: having more. 529 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 4: I don't necessarily think that. 530 00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 3: White supremacy, she wrote, worships the word, including writing that 531 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:06,119 Speaker 3: is grammatically correct and properly cited, and it also celebrates individus. 532 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 3: Is that. 533 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: Only white people can write grammatically correctly. 534 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 2: I mean, that's what a racist thing to say. 535 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, oh yeah, these people are flaming racists. 536 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:22,480 Speaker 3: Oh. White supremacy also celebrates individualism, which for white people 537 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 3: means seeing yourself and or demanding to be seen as 538 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 3: an individual and not part of the white group. That's right, 539 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:32,920 Speaker 3: individual rights, individual identity, not running around like a sheep 540 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 3: and a herd. That's white supremacy. See this, it's so 541 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:39,959 Speaker 3: obvious what they're doing if you know anything about you know, 542 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 3: propaganda and the politics of persuasion and trying to get 543 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 3: people to obey your worldview or your philosophy. It's so 544 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 3: obvious what they're doing. I mean, you can see the seams. 545 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 1: You know, back to the Negro League baseball stuff for 546 00:28:56,240 --> 00:29:00,120 Speaker 1: first grade reading projects. I mentioned this Nietzsche quote came 547 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 1: across the other day that I've been fascinated with. I 548 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 1: need to dig into it more find the actual quote. 549 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 1: But he was a Nietzsche's kind of a half a 550 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 1: nut anyway, But he was saying, it's very important for 551 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 1: countries to be able to forget certain things and remember 552 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 1: certain things. And it was the idea of, you know, 553 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:21,080 Speaker 1: letting go of your flaws and not you know, letting 554 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:24,520 Speaker 1: that drag you down and recognizing you moved past it. 555 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 1: Now let's focus on the good things that make us, 556 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: you know, prosperous and successful. And that makes perfect sense 557 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 1: to me. And I don't know how you nail that 558 00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 1: down exactly, because you know, critics of that idea would 559 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 1: say you're trying to whitewash the past or ignore your 560 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 1: flaws or whatever. But I keep li likening it to 561 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 1: like an individual relationship or a company or something like that. 562 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 1: What are we going to hammer every single night that 563 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 1: one time we fought over how I insulted your mom. 564 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 1: We're going to bring that up every night. How does 565 00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,560 Speaker 1: that benefit us if we've you know, got and pasted 566 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 1: it and I've apologized or whatever, or the greatest metaphor 567 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 1: ever invented for life, the Great game of golf. 568 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 3: I played with a guy the other day, nice fella too, 569 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 3: but he was kicking himself three holes later. 570 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 4: This like an hour for a putty miss. 571 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 2: We're on the knights hole. 572 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 3: He's kicking a hell out of himself for a putty miss. 573 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 3: On six, I'm like, dude, you are You're so self defeating. 574 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 3: This is terrible. And yeah, as a country, you've got 575 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 3: to say, you know what, we screwed up. We're not 576 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:34,239 Speaker 3: going to do that again and move on. Maybe right 577 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 3: the wrong if it needs to be righted. But yeah, yeah, 578 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 3: but again, perfect example of you know what, I was 579 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 3: driving it. These people know that obsessing over the sins 580 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 3: of history is a way to get to pride people 581 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,000 Speaker 3: away from pride in their country and their people and 582 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 3: their principles and who they are. And once they are 583 00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 3: pride away from their history and their identity, you can 584 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 3: control them. 585 00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 4: That's Marxism. 586 00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 3: They wrote books on this and sign their names they're 587 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 3: on the spine. This is not my wild idea. Trust them, 588 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:09,040 Speaker 3: they meant it. We'll finish strong next strong. 589 00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 2: Hey. 590 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 8: According to the Wall Street Journal, the President could sign 591 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 8: that executive order as early as today, directing Education Secretary 592 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 8: Linda McMahon to quote take all necessary steps to facilitate 593 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 8: the closure of the Education Department based on the maximum 594 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 8: extent appropriate and permitted by law. It's something the President 595 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 8: has been angling for since his first days in office. 596 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: I opened the show by saying, I wish we were 597 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 1: having a giant national conversation about the necessity for role 598 00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 1: of public schooling in the United States, but we're not. 599 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I would love to go that big on it. 600 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 3: At least let's talk about the federal government's role in it. 601 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 3: And we're going to go big on this tomorrow, especially 602 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 3: after we see what happens today, whether Trump signs anything 603 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 3: or what. 604 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: An executive order doing away with the Department of Education, 605 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 1: which he doesn't have the power to do. 606 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 3: But the way that was worded to shut it down 607 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 3: to whatever extent is permissible by law, and that idea 608 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 3: and principle I absolutely love. All Right, We're gonna scale 609 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 3: every department back to the specific statutory set of duties 610 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 3: it's supposed to do and then go from there. 611 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 4: It's like zero based budgeting. 612 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 1: So I saw on Fox and Friends this morning. I 613 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 1: guess there's some unhappiness about the idea on the right. 614 00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 1: For instance, if you had schools teaching the sixteen nineteen project, 615 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 1: you'd have no federal authority to go in there and 616 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 1: do anything about it. 617 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 3: How do you root out the DEI stuff? Yeah, exactly, 618 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 3: it's an issue. 619 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 4: Final thought. 620 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:53,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I'd lean toward having those communists enclaves 621 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 1: teach the kids the way they want and just assuming 622 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: that there aren't that many of them. 623 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 3: Hello, U haul, except that every school in America practically 624 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 3: is a deep blue radical little you know, chunk of ground. 625 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 4: In your town. 626 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, at this point, at least, now. 627 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 4: Here's final thoughts with me. 628 00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,760 Speaker 2: Your host just got a final thought from everybody at that. 629 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 4: Sir, right, you're sick. 630 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 2: You're sick. 631 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 4: He's get a final thought from everybody.
