WEBVTT - You Hogged All The Time! 0:00:01.840 --> 0:00:05.600 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio of the 0:00:05.720 --> 0:00:10.240 George Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty. 0:00:10.160 --> 0:00:25.680 Armstrong and Getty and he Armstrong and Eddy. So we 0:00:25.840 --> 0:00:27.760 kind of have some breaking news here. 0:00:28.160 --> 0:00:32.159 Trump with a social media that's a truth social thing, 0:00:32.720 --> 0:00:35.200 so whatever you call that message that he puts out. 0:00:36.440 --> 0:00:39.919 He said, after speaking with the President Shinbaum of Mexico, 0:00:40.000 --> 0:00:42.360 I have agreed that Mexico will not be required to 0:00:42.400 --> 0:00:47.120 pay tariffs on anything that falls under the USMCA agreement. 0:00:47.640 --> 0:00:49.120 Our relationship has been a very good one. 0:00:49.159 --> 0:00:51.320 We're working hard together on the border, both in terms 0:00:51.320 --> 0:00:54.120 of legal aliens and fentanyl, et cetera, et cetera. So 0:00:55.200 --> 0:01:00.240 backing off that until April second, and so Mexico has 0:01:00.280 --> 0:01:02.600 said they're gonna hold off on there. They were gonna 0:01:02.680 --> 0:01:05.880 Sunday announce their tariffs on US as part of the 0:01:05.880 --> 0:01:10.759 trade war, but so that's off and then announced overnight. 0:01:10.800 --> 0:01:16.040 I guess they had excluded cars, American cars and the 0:01:16.080 --> 0:01:19.160 three big car makers from Canada or Mexican tariffs to 0:01:19.200 --> 0:01:20.480 try to get that worked out. 0:01:20.640 --> 0:01:26.880 So it's all very fluid, yeah, and an odd way 0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:32.840 to negotiate. But I'm kind of pleased, as often with 0:01:33.360 --> 0:01:35.640 Trump chaos madness, that. 0:01:36.440 --> 0:01:41.120 It really is a I'm divorcing you. What, I'm divorcing 0:01:41.160 --> 0:01:43.720 you as of tomorrow at noon, divorcing you. And then 0:01:43.760 --> 0:01:46.920 later that day you say, if you start allowing me 0:01:47.000 --> 0:01:49.160 to park my car in the garage in your car 0:01:49.160 --> 0:01:49.400 on the. 0:01:49.360 --> 0:01:52.080 Driveway, I'll take a look at this again. 0:01:52.600 --> 0:01:55.040 Then you say, four days a week, I'll start parking 0:01:55.040 --> 0:01:55.840 my car in the driveway. 0:01:55.840 --> 0:01:56.800 Okay, the divorce is. 0:01:56.760 --> 0:02:03.840 Off exactly, and the divorce never happens generally. But again, 0:02:03.920 --> 0:02:06.640 it's an interesting technique. But how many times can you 0:02:06.680 --> 0:02:06.960 do that? 0:02:07.000 --> 0:02:08.959 I would think, like the third time you say I'm 0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:12.239 divorcing you, it's a how you just roll your eyes? 0:02:13.560 --> 0:02:16.079 I mean, because this is round two or three of 0:02:17.360 --> 0:02:21.000 deadline for tariffs. Remember the thing on Columbia, and it works. 0:02:21.520 --> 0:02:24.880 They did agreed to take their illegals back. 0:02:25.680 --> 0:02:28.600 Well, and if it's not a giant tariffs, it's threats 0:02:28.639 --> 0:02:33.480 to like confiscate your territory be it Panama or Greenland 0:02:33.720 --> 0:02:35.240 or what have you, and it ends up in a 0:02:35.280 --> 0:02:39.080 much saner place generally. Again, I'm not sure that's the 0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:42.560 greatest way to negotiate. It depends on who you're talking about. 0:02:42.560 --> 0:02:45.799 I hate the idea of and this is undeniable that 0:02:45.880 --> 0:02:49.919 this has happened, whipping up anti American sentiment in Canada. 0:02:50.200 --> 0:02:53.120 I just I don't like that idea. You know, Canada 0:02:53.200 --> 0:02:55.320 is goofy and screwed up in a couple of different ways. 0:02:55.320 --> 0:02:57.480 But they're fundamentally nice people and a good ally and 0:02:57.520 --> 0:03:00.480 we trade with them a lot, so let's be buddies anyway. Oh, 0:03:00.520 --> 0:03:03.840 we'll see how it plays out. Seeing of giant political 0:03:04.040 --> 0:03:07.360 rock stars Gavin Newsom, the governor of California. 0:03:07.400 --> 0:03:08.440 Perhaps you've heard of him. 0:03:09.520 --> 0:03:13.520 He is so hot for the presidency he has to 0:03:13.560 --> 0:03:15.800 rearrange his pants to hide his arousal. 0:03:16.160 --> 0:03:16.240 You. 0:03:17.520 --> 0:03:21.079 He is campaigning in half a dozen different ways every 0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:23.040 single day to be the twenty twenty. 0:03:22.800 --> 0:03:24.520 Eight Democratic nominee for president. 0:03:25.120 --> 0:03:29.919 The latest incarnation of that urge is his new podcast, 0:03:30.280 --> 0:03:34.000 which is being promoted by our friends at iHeart Media. 0:03:35.640 --> 0:03:37.520 And the idea of the podcast is that he is 0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:42.280 engaging with figures on the right, including maga folks, enjoying 0:03:42.280 --> 0:03:44.680 about policy and ideas and that sort of thing. And 0:03:44.720 --> 0:03:47.600 in short, I'll cut to the punchline, coming off as 0:03:47.640 --> 0:03:52.560 a thoroughly open minded moderate governor, which is something else 0:03:53.760 --> 0:03:58.440 as he is governed to the left of Trotsky. So 0:03:59.040 --> 0:04:00.880 on the podcast the other day and we've got a 0:04:00.880 --> 0:04:04.000 clip for you, he told his guest Charlie Kirk of 0:04:04.040 --> 0:04:09.760 Turning Point USA, notable mega e right wingy thinker, speaker, guy, 0:04:09.960 --> 0:04:11.040 very very very smart. 0:04:11.280 --> 0:04:11.440 Uh. 0:04:11.520 --> 0:04:13.880 Don't always agree with Charlie, but he's a provocative guy 0:04:13.920 --> 0:04:15.840 in a world where you got to cut through anyway. 0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:16.240 Uh. 0:04:16.360 --> 0:04:19.320 He told Charlie Kirk that he was now against biological 0:04:19.360 --> 0:04:20.760 men and women's sports. 0:04:22.279 --> 0:04:23.720 What I know. 0:04:25.520 --> 0:04:28.919 Are slapping their foreheads. Wait, what, he's not crazy about 0:04:29.080 --> 0:04:35.599 the whole pronounce thing. He says, like everybody in government 0:04:35.760 --> 0:04:39.480 and the universities has their damn pronouns on their emails. Okay, 0:04:39.920 --> 0:04:42.560 that he doesn't like the term latenx seems phony. 0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:45.359 Well, he's right about all these things. He's just said. 0:04:45.520 --> 0:04:47.360 His new patients. 0:04:47.040 --> 0:04:49.440 Telling Charlie Kerric the whole defunding the police not good. 0:04:49.480 --> 0:04:52.520 Cancel culture now and agreed, Oh there have been problems 0:04:52.560 --> 0:04:53.600 with BLM definitely. 0:04:53.839 --> 0:04:55.400 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 0:04:55.440 --> 0:04:59.440 So the obvious comment to this I will credit to, 0:04:59.640 --> 0:05:03.320 uh Chris Nicholson. OOSA is not a big time tweeter, 0:05:03.440 --> 0:05:07.560 but he said, I kind of respect, how unapological I 0:05:07.640 --> 0:05:11.080 kind of respect how unapologetically two faced Newsome is. Here 0:05:11.320 --> 0:05:14.000 He's like, yeah, I'm a politician. I shift with the wind. 0:05:14.160 --> 0:05:17.320 What do you expect? I'm with the winners now. Yeah, yeah, 0:05:17.400 --> 0:05:21.560 that's that's what he's saying. Another comment, if they made 0:05:21.600 --> 0:05:25.200 a prototype for cynical politician trademark, they'd use him for 0:05:25.240 --> 0:05:25.640 the mold. 0:05:26.200 --> 0:05:29.120 It's absolutely true. Here he is talking to Charlie Kirk. 0:05:29.440 --> 0:05:31.719 It's like, you right now should come out and be like, 0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:34.039 you know what, the young man who's about to win 0:05:34.120 --> 0:05:36.720 the state championship in the long jump in female sports, 0:05:37.120 --> 0:05:39.520 that's that that shouldn't happen. You as the governor should 0:05:39.520 --> 0:05:41.440 step out and say no, no, And I appreciate, and 0:05:41.720 --> 0:05:43.479 but like, would you do something like that, would you 0:05:43.480 --> 0:05:44.719 say no men in female sports? 0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:46.760 Well, I think it's an issue of fairness. I completely 0:05:46.760 --> 0:05:48.800 agree with you on that. So that's easy to call 0:05:48.839 --> 0:05:51.640 out the unfairness of that. There's also a humility and 0:05:51.680 --> 0:05:54.640 a grace. You know that that these poor people are 0:05:54.680 --> 0:05:57.760 more likely to commit suicide, have anxiety and depression, and 0:05:57.880 --> 0:06:01.000 the way that people talk down tooble communities is an 0:06:01.040 --> 0:06:03.719 issue that I have a hard time with as well. 0:06:04.040 --> 0:06:06.480 So both things I can hold in my hand. How 0:06:06.520 --> 0:06:09.360 can we address this issue with the kind of decency 0:06:09.560 --> 0:06:12.440 that I think you know, it's inherent in you, but 0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:13.680 not always expressed. 0:06:15.440 --> 0:06:17.800 I used to call Gavin Newsom a lungkhead, and that 0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:23.279 was misplaced. He is very canny, very smart in his way, 0:06:24.320 --> 0:06:30.280 completely phony a moral I mean, that was just that 0:06:30.360 --> 0:06:32.520 was a red herring. How about this, I'm not going 0:06:32.520 --> 0:06:35.000 to talk down to anybody. If you're a male, you 0:06:35.040 --> 0:06:36.440 can't play in female sports. 0:06:36.880 --> 0:06:41.040 The whole trans thing of if you don't go along 0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:44.120 with all of it, they'll kill themselves, which is like 0:06:44.279 --> 0:06:50.080 a hell of a moral hostage taking things sort of game. 0:06:50.200 --> 0:06:51.960 Who came up with that? It was very clever. It 0:06:52.000 --> 0:06:53.239 worked for a long time. 0:06:53.640 --> 0:06:56.760 Oh yeah yeah, moral arguments and fear and guilt to 0:06:56.839 --> 0:06:59.200 motivate you to go along with the radical program. The 0:06:59.240 --> 0:07:01.560 interesting thing about heavy, though, is he didn't say that. 0:07:01.800 --> 0:07:05.480 He just referred to it obliquely. That's why he's so canny. 0:07:05.839 --> 0:07:09.000 He wasn't gonna make that crazy claim. He just wanted 0:07:09.040 --> 0:07:16.040 it out there. Yeah, pretty trump mask actually are yes. Yeah, 0:07:16.080 --> 0:07:19.520 these people are disturbed, and disturbed people tend to have, 0:07:20.120 --> 0:07:24.360 you know, worse outcomes. Yeah, undeniably it is. It's the 0:07:24.480 --> 0:07:27.360 talking down to vulnerable populations that. 0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:28.480 What are we talking about. 0:07:28.520 --> 0:07:30.360 We're talking about beating a crap out of women on 0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:31.240 a sports field. 0:07:31.680 --> 0:07:33.560 I was having this conversation with my kids the other 0:07:33.640 --> 0:07:36.080 day about, uh, they. 0:07:35.920 --> 0:07:38.280 Are talking about getting into me, getting into politics ever 0:07:38.360 --> 0:07:39.880 or anything like that, if I ever thought about it 0:07:39.920 --> 0:07:43.320 or whatever, and on how as far as I can tell, 0:07:43.400 --> 0:07:48.240 it's impossible to be at any very high level of 0:07:48.320 --> 0:07:53.240 politics without being phony, at a level I would never 0:07:53.320 --> 0:07:54.120 be comfortable with. 0:07:54.720 --> 0:07:56.120 I just don't think you can do it. 0:07:56.160 --> 0:08:01.440 Maybe you can be mayor of some smaller birds without 0:08:01.480 --> 0:08:03.000 compromising anything. 0:08:03.040 --> 0:08:03.960 You might be able to do that. 0:08:04.000 --> 0:08:06.880 But if you rise very high at all, you're gonna 0:08:06.920 --> 0:08:09.960 have to You're gonna have to play that game at 0:08:09.960 --> 0:08:10.280 some point. 0:08:10.360 --> 0:08:12.320 And I just I just am not built that way. 0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:15.040 And I was thinking to e Xamp I'm listening to 0:08:15.320 --> 0:08:18.880 right now the book Thirteen Days by Lawrence Wright. 0:08:18.920 --> 0:08:21.720 I really like Lawrence Wright's stuff. And it's about the. 0:08:23.640 --> 0:08:27.120 Piece of chords between Egypt, Israel, and the United States 0:08:27.120 --> 0:08:29.840 back when Carter was president. So it's sadat began and 0:08:29.880 --> 0:08:32.640 Carter and it's the Thirteen Day Summit, and I'm just 0:08:32.679 --> 0:08:37.960 into it. It's really freaking good, so good, but it 0:08:38.000 --> 0:08:40.079 went through some of the stuff Jimmy Carter had to do. 0:08:40.200 --> 0:08:44.160 Jimmy Carter ran and lost because he didn't wink and 0:08:44.240 --> 0:08:49.000 nudge to the racists in Georgia in the early seventies. 0:08:49.280 --> 0:08:52.239 Then he ran again and had a couple of phrases 0:08:52.360 --> 0:08:55.320 that were associated with I'm on your side and you 0:08:55.360 --> 0:08:56.680 know who I am, and you know why I can't 0:08:56.679 --> 0:08:57.439 say it out loud. 0:08:57.760 --> 0:08:59.520 You know the oft mentioned dog whistles. 0:08:59.600 --> 0:09:02.240 Yeah, he did exactly dog whistles, and he did it, 0:09:02.760 --> 0:09:05.800 and he separated himself enough from it that he couldn't 0:09:05.840 --> 0:09:08.280 be completely tagged with it. But his campaign did it, 0:09:08.320 --> 0:09:11.040 and he obviously wouldn't have allowed his cam But I thought, wow, 0:09:11.200 --> 0:09:12.720 even freaking. 0:09:12.360 --> 0:09:15.000 Jimmy Carter, and this is not a knock on him. 0:09:15.840 --> 0:09:18.480 Like I just said, you cannot rise to a high 0:09:18.600 --> 0:09:21.839 level of office without playing that game at some level. 0:09:21.880 --> 0:09:22.560 You just can't. 0:09:23.040 --> 0:09:26.319 So that's why I give some leeway to the Gavin 0:09:26.360 --> 0:09:29.160 Newsoms and Donald Trump's, Jimmy Carter's whoever who do this, 0:09:29.200 --> 0:09:33.040 because I don't think it's possible to become a senator, 0:09:33.120 --> 0:09:35.839 a governor, certainly a president without playing that. 0:09:35.760 --> 0:09:36.880 Game at some level. 0:09:37.240 --> 0:09:39.280 Yeah, and I agree with you. 0:09:39.360 --> 0:09:42.760 At the same time, calling them on it aggressively is 0:09:42.840 --> 0:09:45.520 how we prevent what I was about to describe, and 0:09:45.559 --> 0:09:49.400 that is, if you do that and you win, then 0:09:49.440 --> 0:09:50.880 you get to do the things that matter. 0:09:51.000 --> 0:09:52.200 As Charles Kronhammer r. 0:09:52.320 --> 0:09:54.679 Right, that's what Jimmy Carter would, I guarantee you, that's 0:09:54.679 --> 0:09:56.840 what he was thinking at the time to make himself 0:09:56.880 --> 0:10:00.000 be able to sleep at night, was the state the country. 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:04.080 It'll be better off if I'm in charge. And Okay, 0:10:04.080 --> 0:10:06.600 so I have to do this little thing. Ultimately it 0:10:06.600 --> 0:10:07.200 will be a win. 0:10:07.840 --> 0:10:11.800 And indeed, in Jimmy Carter's case, I could see him saying, 0:10:12.120 --> 0:10:14.480 and if I can allow my campaign to blow a 0:10:14.480 --> 0:10:17.360 couple of dog whistles at the racists and I win. 0:10:17.960 --> 0:10:21.640 I can do great things to promote the health and 0:10:21.720 --> 0:10:22.760 welfare of black. 0:10:22.559 --> 0:10:24.440 Americans or black Georgians or whatever. 0:10:24.760 --> 0:10:27.000 Right, And the racists they're gonna hate that, but they're 0:10:27.000 --> 0:10:27.920 gonna help me do it. 0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:29.000 And ain't that sweet? 0:10:29.240 --> 0:10:32.800 And so again, to get to do the things that matter, 0:10:33.120 --> 0:10:37.400 you've got to put yourself on some very shaky moral ground, 0:10:38.559 --> 0:10:40.640 which you know, depending on how you handle it, might 0:10:40.760 --> 0:10:43.240 end up being a moral good. But the reason you 0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:45.120 have to call people out and criticize them for it 0:10:45.160 --> 0:10:48.920 is to make sure they don't slide too far. I'm 0:10:49.080 --> 0:10:52.920 on that moral ground and end up, you know, being 0:10:53.080 --> 0:10:56.640 just flat evil. The problem is I Havevin Newsom, since 0:10:56.679 --> 0:10:59.560 he's soulless and has no principles like Kamala Harris is, 0:11:00.120 --> 0:11:02.199 you know, and he was a pretty moderate Democrat when 0:11:02.240 --> 0:11:04.480 he came up, and some people say he would that 0:11:04.559 --> 0:11:08.839 was that's the real Gavin. Well maybe, but California is 0:11:08.840 --> 0:11:11.480 a very moderate purple state when he came up too, 0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:13.200 So he's just a wind sock. 0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:16.640 It's amazing how far you can go in politics without 0:11:16.880 --> 0:11:18.480 having any real convictions. 0:11:18.520 --> 0:11:21.760 You just figure out, okay, on this day in history, 0:11:21.880 --> 0:11:26.000 what do most people want or believe that I can 0:11:26.000 --> 0:11:26.640 get elected? 0:11:26.920 --> 0:11:27.280 Saying? 0:11:28.440 --> 0:11:28.680 Right? 0:11:28.720 --> 0:11:29.000 Are you? 0:11:29.480 --> 0:11:31.600 But then the question is are you ten percent of 0:11:31.640 --> 0:11:35.720 wind sock, twenty five fifty or one hundred percent a 0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:36.400 wind sock? 0:11:36.840 --> 0:11:39.080 I don't think he can run away from his record. 0:11:39.120 --> 0:11:40.760 I don't know how he's going to answer for the 0:11:41.520 --> 0:11:44.720 homelessness and the. 0:11:43.640 --> 0:11:45.800 COVID shutdown and a whole bunch of different things. 0:11:46.240 --> 0:11:48.760 If his opponent is worth a damn, they'll hang it 0:11:48.760 --> 0:11:51.520 around his neck successfully. But the number of times the 0:11:51.840 --> 0:11:54.160 Republican Party has coughed up somebody who's not very good 0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:55.360 at making the case. 0:11:55.200 --> 0:11:55.760 He won't need to. 0:11:55.800 --> 0:11:58.880 He won't face a Republican, he'll face other Democrats. Josh 0:11:58.880 --> 0:12:00.600 Shapiro runs circle around him. 0:12:02.000 --> 0:12:04.760 Oh you think he won't wouldn't get to the general. 0:12:04.640 --> 0:12:06.960 No, no way. I think that's where his danger is. 0:12:07.000 --> 0:12:08.480 I think he's gonna get killed by. 0:12:08.360 --> 0:12:11.160 A Oh yeah, maybe maybe. 0:12:11.559 --> 0:12:15.360 But Gaffy is again, he's very very savvy, and he's 0:12:15.520 --> 0:12:19.480 very good at portraying the problems he and the Democrats 0:12:19.520 --> 0:12:22.079 have caused as something that fell out of the sky 0:12:22.280 --> 0:12:24.480 and they've had to deal with. And we're dealing with 0:12:24.520 --> 0:12:29.320 it aggressively and creatively. We're demanding the cities and counties 0:12:29.360 --> 0:12:33.480 of California take responsibility for their homeless programs and make 0:12:33.559 --> 0:12:34.720 sure they're paying off. 0:12:35.280 --> 0:12:37.280 I look really good at twisting it like that. 0:12:37.360 --> 0:12:39.320 I look around at these homeless camps and I say, 0:12:39.320 --> 0:12:40.480 what the hell is going on? 0:12:41.000 --> 0:12:46.400 Right, let's ride gav It's just utterly phony, but he's 0:12:46.400 --> 0:12:46.880 good at it. 0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:51.520 Man Trump put out a hell of a threat to Hamas. 0:12:51.640 --> 0:12:54.480 Yesterday he tweeted it out that and other stuff on 0:12:54.520 --> 0:12:55.320 the way stay here. 0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:00.320 Drum Sports News. 0:13:00.400 --> 0:13:02.720 For the first time ever in the game's history, the 0:13:02.800 --> 0:13:06.680 twenty twenty six World Cup Final will include a halftime show. 0:13:07.000 --> 0:13:13.720 Oo right now, Drake is like, oh no, that's a 0:13:13.720 --> 0:13:15.360 perfect lead in to what I was just about to 0:13:15.400 --> 0:13:20.120 talk about.

Sorry, but rush Bruce Springsteen. He goes into 0:15:37.640 --> 0:15:40.560 some detail, some galss sting and the police. I'll never 0:15:40.640 --> 0:15:43.680 get it. I've tried, Brother, it simply just doesn't register. 0:15:43.880 --> 0:15:47.800 Foo Fighters don't like him. Here's the definition of ma 0:15:48.080 --> 0:15:52.680 It's Tom Petty. I appreciate the Beatles' place in music history, 0:15:52.680 --> 0:15:55.280 I just can't get into them. Tried many times. Pink Floyd, 0:15:55.280 --> 0:15:59.000 the Door is grateful, dead Tea Swizzle you too, Madonna, 0:15:59.360 --> 0:16:03.400 I never got Bob Dylan, Fleetwood, Mac Oasis. They're doing 0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:05.800 less than nothing for me. On and on and on. 0:16:05.800 --> 0:16:11.120 The list of musicians anything else to There's bon Jovi, 0:16:11.440 --> 0:16:16.800 Guns n' Roses, Dreams, Theater, Green Day.

There's something for everyone, and 0:16:26.840 --> 0:16:28.800 if you don't like it, fine, nobody cares. 0:16:29.040 --> 0:16:31.760 I don't care. Just dig what you dig. And shut up. 0:16:32.000 --> 0:16:33.760 Some of those are surprising to me, Like I can 0:16:33.840 --> 0:16:36.160 understand how things that are more on the edge of 0:16:36.360 --> 0:16:40.640 art you might not get or not might get or not. 0:16:40.680 --> 0:16:42.720 Like I can understand lots of people not being into 0:16:42.720 --> 0:16:45.200 Bob Dylan. That makes perfectly good sense to me, even 0:16:45.200 --> 0:16:48.720 though I love Bob Dylan, But like Fleetwood, Mac just 0:16:48.720 --> 0:16:51.680 seems like not liking a ham sandwich, I mean a 0:16:51.720 --> 0:16:52.840 really good Ham sandwich. 0:16:54.200 --> 0:16:57.440 I agree. I've tried and tried, just can't get into them. 0:16:57.440 --> 0:17:00.000 But again, teach their own so far, Oh yeah, yeah, 0:17:00.000 --> 0:17:01.960 it doesn't matter. And there's plenty of music out there. 0:17:02.320 --> 0:17:04.119 If you're not digging this, there's plenty of other stuff. 0:17:04.359 --> 0:17:08.359 So Trump with a pretty forceful tweet yesterday about a 0:17:08.400 --> 0:17:09.639 deadline for Hamas. 0:17:10.200 --> 0:17:12.120 If you haven't heard this, among other things on the way, 0:17:12.160 --> 0:17:12.560 stay with. 0:17:12.560 --> 0:17:16.320 Us, Armstrong and getty. 0:17:17.800 --> 0:17:21.760 With Phase one now concluded, uncertainty around phases two and three, 0:17:21.920 --> 0:17:25.680 Israel already blocking humanitarian aid to Gaza to pressure Hamas, 0:17:25.720 --> 0:17:28.520 and now Trump comes in here with this threat to 0:17:28.560 --> 0:17:31.560 not only let all hell break loose, but to send 0:17:31.720 --> 0:17:34.040 Israel everything it needs quote. 0:17:33.720 --> 0:17:34.879 To finish the job. 0:17:34.920 --> 0:17:37.800 And indeed we have gotten a response from a Hamas 0:17:37.800 --> 0:17:41.359 spokesman who says, quote, these threats complicate matters regarding the 0:17:41.359 --> 0:17:45.120 ceasefire agreement and encourage the occupation government that means Israel 0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:48.439 not to implement the agreement. And he then goes on 0:17:48.520 --> 0:17:52.320 to urge the US administration to pressure Israel to enter 0:17:52.440 --> 0:17:55.439 the second stage as stipulated in the agreement that was 0:17:55.480 --> 0:17:57.840 indeed backed by the United States. 0:17:58.400 --> 0:18:01.600 I like the fact that anybody quote what Hamas thinks 0:18:01.720 --> 0:18:06.760 is if that is a legitimate commentary. 0:18:05.760 --> 0:18:09.639 Name the sorts of negotiations that are appropriate when you 0:18:09.800 --> 0:18:12.679 know the other side is not negotiating in good faith. 0:18:13.440 --> 0:18:16.120 So trance or is there aren't any Trump met with 0:18:16.160 --> 0:18:18.919 a bunch of hostages that had been released in the 0:18:18.960 --> 0:18:23.360 Oval Office yesterday and heard their stories, so in this 0:18:23.560 --> 0:18:26.000 and right afterwards, and I imagine he was pretty worked 0:18:26.080 --> 0:18:30.840 up emotionally having heard the stories. When he tweeted this out, 0:18:31.520 --> 0:18:35.159 Shalom Hamas means hello and goodbye. You can choose. 0:18:36.240 --> 0:18:37.240 That's a pretty good opening. 0:18:39.119 --> 0:18:42.160 Release all of the hostages now, not later, and immediately 0:18:42.200 --> 0:18:44.600 return all the dead bodies of the people you murdered, 0:18:44.720 --> 0:18:48.160 or it's over for you over in all caps only 0:18:48.280 --> 0:18:50.840 sick and twisted people keep bodies, and you are sick 0:18:50.840 --> 0:18:51.440 and twisted. 0:18:51.480 --> 0:18:52.359 Exclamation point. 0:18:52.840 --> 0:18:55.520 I'm sending Israel everything it needs to finish the job. 0:18:55.600 --> 0:18:58.000 Not a single Hamas member will be safe if you 0:18:58.040 --> 0:19:01.480 don't do as I say. I met with your former hostages, 0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:05.320 whose lives you've destroyed. This is your last warning. Exclamation 0:19:05.400 --> 0:19:07.760 point for the leadership. Now is the time to leave 0:19:07.800 --> 0:19:10.040 Gaza while you still have a chance. Also, are the 0:19:10.040 --> 0:19:13.439 people of Gaza a beautiful future awaits. But do not, 0:19:14.240 --> 0:19:17.639 but not if you hold hostages. If you do, you 0:19:17.680 --> 0:19:21.560 are dead. All caps make a smart decision. All caps, 0:19:21.800 --> 0:19:24.080 release the hostages now, or there will be hell to 0:19:24.119 --> 0:19:24.639 pay later. 0:19:24.720 --> 0:19:29.159 All Caps. It doesn't have a timeline on it. 0:19:29.040 --> 0:19:31.760 It doesn't say by tonight or Saturday, or the end 0:19:31.800 --> 0:19:38.879 of the month or whatever. Just as now, I'm reminded, 0:19:38.920 --> 0:19:42.919 and it's so simple of a piece. Who wrote it 0:19:42.960 --> 0:19:45.080 for the Free Press I can't remember, but and it was. 0:19:45.200 --> 0:19:47.119 It was very long and very detailed and went through 0:19:47.160 --> 0:19:48.560 all sorts of episodes of history. 0:19:48.960 --> 0:19:50.160 But the history of. 0:19:52.200 --> 0:19:56.679 Someone launching an unprovoked attack on a neighbor went in 0:19:56.720 --> 0:20:00.600 a time of peace and being defeated is that you 0:20:00.720 --> 0:20:06.439 lose your sovereignty, your land or both every single time 0:20:06.760 --> 0:20:11.560 through history. There's just there is no exception. How could 0:20:11.600 --> 0:20:15.800 there be an exception except Israel is supposed to now 0:20:15.840 --> 0:20:19.320 re engage and talk about a two state solution. Ha ha, 0:20:19.480 --> 0:20:21.560 He says, completely without humor. 0:20:23.400 --> 0:20:25.600 Even if there is an exception, it will be a 0:20:25.680 --> 0:20:31.520 blip and then historically forgotten. When Israel then says, Okay, 0:20:31.560 --> 0:20:34.160 that's it. I don't care what anybody says about anything. 0:20:34.720 --> 0:20:39.480
