Because it was still pitch dark, I 12 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,600 Speaker 1: didn't see the fog. Clicked on it said it could 13 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:40,159 Speaker 1: be dangerous threat to life. Basically, that's how serious the 14 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 1: fog conditions are here. We've been hearing like fog horns 15 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 1: and it through. You know, it's not just for the 16 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,920 Speaker 1: sound effect. They're actually using them to steer here in 17 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 1: this foggy weather along the Hudson, and it's an active 18 00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:56,280 Speaker 1: waterway which we have been watching. 19 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 2: But yeah, looking it's weird to look across look out 20 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 2: the window and cannot see neut It's a white house 21 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 2: the way it absolutely is.

Rohobes, which is where 32 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 2: we need to start. 33 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: That's right. We begin our run with Yeah, we got 34 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 1: their president. Now we're getting their oil. President Trump made 35 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:44,040 Speaker 1: this big announcement that the United States we'll be getting 36 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 1: millions of barrels of Venezuelan oil, selling it and then 37 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: doing whatever we want to do with it. 38 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, and who's in control of it? He actually declared me, 39 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 2: I'm going to do with it what I want to 40 00:01:57,720 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 2: do with this money. That is from the President. This 41 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 2: is his social media post quote. I am pleased to 42 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 2: announce that the interim authorities in Venezuela will be turning 43 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 2: over thirty to fifty million barrels of high quality, sanctioned 44 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 2: oil to the United States of America. This oil will 45 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 2: be sold at its market price, and the money will 46 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 2: be controlled by me as President of the United States 47 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 2: of America, to ensure that it is used to benefit 48 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 2: the people of Venezuela and the United States. He says 49 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 2: this is happening now, Robes that the Energy Secretary is 50 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 2: executing a plan immediately, and these ships are coming to 51 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 2: the US and unloading this stuff on the docks of 52 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 2: the United States. This is just days after what Saturday 53 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 2: he was taken Tuesday, we're taking the oil. 54 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 1: So is this about drugs or about oil? It's don't 55 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,679 Speaker 1: or national security, all of the above, depending on who 56 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 1: you're asking. But yes, boll declare declaration, we are getting 57 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: the oil. I guess you could say he's being transparent, 58 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: all right. Next up on the Run, the President has 59 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:07,639 Speaker 1: said repeatedly that he wants to acquire Greenland, but now 60 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: the White House is going further. They are clearly stating 61 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: that military action is on the table, and with what 62 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: we've seen over the past several days, everyone should listen up, 63 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: perhaps especially Greenland and Denmark. Here is what Carolyn Levitt said, 64 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 1: The President and his team are discussing a range of 65 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: options to pursue this important foreign policy goal, and of course, 66 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: utilizing the US military is always an option at the 67 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: Commander in chief's disposal. 68 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 2: Um, yes, I guess I don't know what that could 69 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 2: possibly mean. This is a country of fifty seven thousand people, 70 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 2: that's it. Obviously they're not going to fight the United States, 71 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 2: and we would be foolish too. Seems weird to pick 72 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 2: on Greenland as well, but this is a tiny, toady 73 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 2: place that the President keeps saying is at least from 74 00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 2: a national security standpoint, strategically important to the United States. 75 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 2: It's a reminder this is a semi autonomous region of Denmark. 76 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 2: Denmark is a member of NATO. If we were to 77 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 2: dare use military action against the NATO member, the point 78 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 2: of NATO after World War II was what you attack 79 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 2: one of us, you attack all of us. It requires 80 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 2: other NATO members to protect a NATO member. 81 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: This is a mess, and Denmark has made it very 82 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: clear that Greenland is not for sale. Denmark has made 83 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 1: it very clear that they completely oppose anything President Trump 84 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: is proposing. 85 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 2: All right, we'll continue on the run here now on 86 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 2: this Wednesday morning, and we'll head to Minneapolis for this one. 87 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 2: The Apartment of Homeland Security has launched what it is 88 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 2: calling the largest immigration enforcement operation ever. Yes, and they're 89 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 2: in the Twin Cities. Two thousand agents are descending on 90 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 2: the area. According to Christy Nome of a Homeland Security department, 91 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 2: they're focusing on immigration crackdown and that massive fraud scandal 92 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 2: that has dogged the state, dogged the current governor who 93 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 2: has just out of a reelection bid. But they have 94 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 2: flooded that area. 95 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, two thousand agents in the area. And well it 96 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: looks like after the whole debacle with that Hampton Inn 97 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 1: outside of Minneapolis, they'll all have hotel rooms available and 98 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: waiting for them as they arrive in that city. Discounted rates, Yes, 99 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: whatever you need. Next up on the Run, a mistrial already. 100 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:26,359 Speaker 1: Testimony has been suspended today in the trial of the 101 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 1: officer who was accused of child endangerment in the Uvalde 102 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: school shooting. This was former officer Adrian Gonzalez. The charge 103 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: is that he did not follow his training, that he 104 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 1: did not act. Seventy seven minutes went by before anyone 105 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: entered that school, despite the fact that we have learned 106 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: Adrian Gonzalez was there on the scene as an armed, 107 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: trained police officer before the shooter even went into the building. 108 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 2: So yes, a lot of parents, a lot of people 109 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 2: really have been waiting for some kind of accountability, some 110 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 2: type of justice. Well, this is the first trial of 111 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 2: the first officer involved in this, but on the first 112 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 2: day of testimony, this is a very big issue. Testimony 113 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 2: from a teacher who was there the day of the 114 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 2: shooting prompted objections from the defense, which claimed her testimony 115 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 2: was different from the official statements she gave to authorities. 116 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 2: So now they're arguing that the prosecution knew about her 117 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 2: change of testimony, did not let them know that her 118 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 2: story had changed. That's called a Brady violation and a 119 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:34,039 Speaker 2: pretty big deal and early a possibility for a mistrial. 120 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 2: And also, you would bring this up at any appeal, 121 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 2: this is the first thing they would start with. 122 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 1: Yes, and we should point out we just before this episode, 123 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 1: we have a full episode on what happened in court yesterday, 124 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: what her testimony was, and why the defense was so 125 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 1: upset about it enough to say, hey, this whole trial 126 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: now has to come to a halt, and we have 127 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 1: to discuss whether or not a mistrial is necessary. So please, 128 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: if you're interested in this case, which I know so 129 00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 1: many of you are, check out that episode and we 130 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: will continue to follow all of the developments in that 131 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:07,119 Speaker 1: courtroom today. Next up on the run, another big court 132 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: case today, or at least a court hearing today, is 133 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 1: happening in Los Angeles. Nick Reiner is going to be 134 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: arraigned and is expected to enter a plea to those 135 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 1: murder charges. He's charged with two counts of murder for 136 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: the killing of his parents, Rob and Michelle Reiner. He 137 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: did have a previous appearance, it was brief, he did 138 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: not enter a plea. And remember Rob and Michelle Reiner 139 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 1: were brutally stabbed to death on December fourteenth. Just all 140 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 1: eyes are going to be on that court room. It 141 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 1: happens at eight thirty am local times, so around eleven 142 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 1: thirty here on the East Coast, and we will be 143 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: following that for you. 144 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 2: We turned on to another major criminal case of interest, 145 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 2: the Brown University shooting. Well, we were finding out now 146 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 2: that the shooter left videos behind confessing to the shooting 147 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 2: and indicating he'd been planning this attack for months, even years. 148 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 2: Authorities found the videos in the storage facility in Salem, 149 00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 2: New Hampshire, where they track down the suspect, Claudio and 150 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 2: Well Nevis Valente. He had taken his own life. Prosecutors 151 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 2: did release transcripts of the videos, not the videos themselves. 152 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 2: And then this was December fourteenth. Excuse me thirteenth. I 153 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 2: didn't put this together. Those were back to back. The 154 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 2: brown shooting and the killing of the writers were on 155 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 2: back to back days, kid Lord, right around the holidays. 156 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 1: That is. Yeah, I didn't put that together either. 157 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 2: We just boom, boom boom, all this news was coming 158 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 2: and we kind of get into this rhythm of just 159 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 2: doing it and didn't piece that. Man, I did not 160 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 2: realize we had those huge back to back stories. But yes, 161 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 2: this was December thirteenth. He went on campus, killed two, 162 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 2: injured another nine in that shooting, then two days later 163 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 2: killed at MIT professor. But in these videos Robes he 164 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 2: makes a mention almost like he corrected himself. He said, 165 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 2: looking at this for what he say, six months, and 166 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 2: he's had actually six semesters, so he actually said six semesters, 167 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 2: as if he was planning this for quite some time years. 168 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 1: Yes, and he said he chickened out. He was going 169 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,959 Speaker 1: to do it multiple times. He had several opportunities, he said, 170 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: but he got scared and chickened out. But he said 171 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 1: the only objective was to leave more or less on 172 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 1: my own terms. And he also said this, I don't 173 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 1: regret what I did. So this was all these videos 174 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 1: were made after the shootings. So that's I mean, it's 175 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 1: chilling to think there was zero remorse for what he 176 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: had done and if he wanted to go on in 177 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 1: his own terms. I'm always wondering, why not just go 178 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: ahead and kill yourself? Why do you have to take 179 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: innocent people with you? Certainly the kids in the classroom 180 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: had nothing to do with his rage. 181 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, any of all these videos, what we're hoping for 182 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 2: was a motive. We still don't know why he killed 183 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 2: that professor and why he walked into that classroom. He 184 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:45,839 Speaker 2: mentioned in the class that it didn't go the way 185 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 2: he wanted it to because he wanted to go into 186 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 2: a class and ended up in an auditorium. These are 187 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 2: the things and notes would saying. He also mentioned he 188 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 2: was surprised the police hadn't found him yet. 189 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 1: Yes, which is just a last little f you to 190 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: the police like, hey, I was right here the whole time. 191 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 1: Believe you didn't find me. 192 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 2: All right, we want to continue on this run now 193 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 2: and mention that the eldest son of former President Ronald 194 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 2: Reagan has died. The Reagan Foundation made this announcement yesterday 195 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 2: that Michael Reagan died January fourth, and he was surrounded 196 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:14,959 Speaker 2: by family in la. 197 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: He was eighty years old. He worked as a political commentator. 198 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 1: I'm sure a lot of people know his face and 199 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 1: his name. He was described as a steadfast guardian of 200 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 1: his father's legacy. That certainly was true. He was adopted 201 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 1: by Ronald Reagan and his first wife, but yes, was 202 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 1: loyal till the end. 203 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 2: All right, we'll stay with us here on this Wednesday 204 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 2: morning run. When we come back, Congress has lost another member. 205 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 2: Another member of Congress he has has passed away. This 206 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 2: is at least a fourth in the past year. We'll 207 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 2: get into that. Also, a day of remembrance in California 208 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 2: today and in Washington, d C. It might not be surprised, 209 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 2: but Democrats and Republicans chose to commemorate the January sixth 210 00:10:55,800 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 2: anniversary in much different ways. Stay here, we continue here 211 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,719 Speaker 2: on this Wednesday morning, Ron, and another member of Congress 212 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 2: has passed away. Is this California Republican douglam Maufel Republican 213 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 2: from northern California. It represented the district up there for 214 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 2: seven terms. Now be died after having a medical emergency 215 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 2: at home, but they say he died at the hospital. 216 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,199 Speaker 2: Wor This is now at least a fourth member of 217 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 2: Congress who's passed away in the past year. Now, it's look, 218 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 2: it's DC and it's politics. But I have actually seen 219 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:38,560 Speaker 2: some stories that barely have a passing mentioned. Yeah, he 220 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 2: died and went right into the politics of it, which 221 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,319 Speaker 2: is and I get it and understand. But the margins, 222 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 2: it's so tight in the House that when somebody passes away, 223 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 2: it does make the job of Republicans more difficult when 224 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 2: they lose a member than there's a special election that's 225 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 2: coming they could Democrats could pick up another. But it's yes, 226 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 2: they're talking about the numbers and what this does to. 227 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 1: It feels very incentive. He was sixty five years old. 228 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 1: He was a young man that you know, that's not 229 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 1: that's that's something to add to the tragedy of it 230 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: and the sadness of it. So yes, maybe wait a 231 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: couple of days before we start pointing to the political 232 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 1: ramifications of losing a Republican seat. I don't know. That's 233 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 1: just me though, but. 234 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 2: No, you're right, but I actually saw an article that 235 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 2: it was just like a passing mention. He died, Okay, 236 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 2: now in Congress is going to make it difficult for 237 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 2: the president. It just went into a total analysis. I mean, 238 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 2: I get you. I know it's part of the story 239 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 2: of it. 240 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 1: I get it. But isn't that telling? Isn't that telling? 241 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 1: And did you see anything about this man, who he was, 242 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,839 Speaker 1: how he lived his life, who he left behind, any 243 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 1: of that. Like we've I think in politics especially and 244 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 1: in crime, we've lost, we continue to lose the human element, 245 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:47,679 Speaker 1: which is the whole purpose of why we care and 246 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 1: why we can come together. And if you think about 247 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 1: that and you remember that, we could all actually come 248 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 1: together on a lot of other issues. 249 00:12:55,840 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 2: It's just ugh, true crime is too often entertainment. Yeah, 250 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 2: and politics is too often a blood spoort. That's just 251 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,440 Speaker 2: what it is. Okay, Yeah, he died. What does this 252 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 2: mean for the American people and the agenda? 253 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: What does this mean for me? Is usually what it 254 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 1: comes down to But yeah. 255 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 2: I mean Congress lost a member. I mean there's a 256 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 2: lot of sadness up there in this man's family, in 257 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 2: that district he represented for a long time. So yeah, 258 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 2: wanted dimension. 259 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 1: All right, thank you well, Next up on the run. 260 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: Today has officially been declared a day of remembrance in California. 261 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 1: It is now officially, yes, the one year anniversary today 262 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:34,559 Speaker 1: of the start of those deadly horrific fires. Thirty one 263 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,199 Speaker 1: people died. We forget that, you know, I forget that 264 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 1: that many people. Almost three dozen people died. Thousands of 265 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: structures were destroyed. You and I went out there, I 266 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 1: believe what the week after or so, and just you know, 267 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 1: We've covered plenty of tragedies and natural disastros, but just 268 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: to see the scorched earth and just the loss, the 269 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 1: unbelievable losses. 270 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 2: We do hurricanes or do tornadoes. Those are events. They 271 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 2: happen and they're done. This went on for three weeks. 272 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,440 Speaker 2: La was on fire for three weeks. That's going to 273 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 2: be recovering for years and years and years. But the 274 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 2: governor there has ordered the flax to be flown with 275 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 2: ad half staff and half mass half staff. They are 276 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 2: both actually accepted. But some people will go crazy in 277 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 2: this country if you call it what. 278 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 1: Half staff is actually, I would think mostly on land 279 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 1: and half mast is on both. 280 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 2: But we argue that. But over there it doesn't matter. 281 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 2: It's all just interchangeable. But yes, that's happening. You just 282 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 2: remember California. It's just one year, but it's going to 283 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 2: be a lot a lot of years to come to recover. 284 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 2: Also here finally on our run, Democrats in the White 285 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 2: House marked the five year anniversary of the January sixth 286 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 2: assault on the Capitol. Yes, it's hard to believe it's 287 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 2: been five years, but the Democrats and the Republicans, no surprise, 288 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 2: commemorated in very different ways. Democrats gathered moment of silence 289 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 2: at the Capitol. The White House, for its part, released 290 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 2: a new and pretty remarkable I would say is it surprise, 291 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 2: but it was remarkable website. This is at white House 292 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 2: dot gov slash j six, So you can go to 293 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 2: the White House dot gov slash J six and they 294 00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 2: give you a complete retelling of January sixth. And it 295 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 2: flies in the face of what your eyes saw on 296 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 2: that day on live television. 297 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: It flies in the face of everything you've read or 298 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: learned about that day, and it completely turns the facts 299 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: upside down all around. It's incredibly jarring to read it is. 300 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 1: You sent it to me this morning and said, before 301 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 1: we do morning run, you gotta look at this and 302 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: read through it all. And I did. And you even said, 303 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: I'm surprised at how often I'm still surprised at what 304 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 1: I see coming from the administration oftentimes, and it is remarkable. 305 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: That is the word you used, and that might be 306 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: the best way to describe it. But we can give 307 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: you one excerpt. This is what I did. 308 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 2: That's I plucked out the one and again, you just 309 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 2: pull up the page. You see Nancy Pelosi's face first, 310 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 2: and a whole line of Democrats and this entire page 311 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 2: is dedicated to blaming Democrats for everything that happened that. 312 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 1: Day and police. 313 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 2: Oh yes, and you know what, that's the line I 314 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 2: plucked out. There was so much stuff that's unbelievable, but 315 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 2: I was. I plucked this one out to give everybody 316 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 2: an accurate example. 317 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: And just a taste of what Yes, it's everyone's fault, 318 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 1: but President Trump's capital police response escalates tensions. That's the subheader. 319 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 1: Here's what it reads. Capital police aggressively fire tear gas, 320 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: flash banks, and rubber munitions into crowds of peaceful protesters, 321 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 1: injuring many and deliberately escalating tensions. Video evidence shows officers 322 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 1: inexplicably removing barricades, opening Capital doors, even waiving attendees inside 323 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 1: the building, actions that facilitated entry read while simultaneously deploying 324 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 1: violent force against others. These inconsistent and provocative tactics turned 325 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 1: a peaceful demonstration into chaos. It also says that President 326 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:22,959 Speaker 1: Trump repeatedly urged for peace, repeatedly asked for nonviolence. The 327 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: timeline of events, as we know it will show otherwise, 328 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 1: But they actually said that legacy media gaslighted the American public. 329 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: But the way this reads it is as if Capitol 330 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:38,400 Speaker 1: police set up a trap for peaceful protesters to make 331 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: them think they were welcome and then to attack them. 332 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 1: That is what they are saying here. 333 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,200 Speaker 2: Folks read at white House dot gov slash j six 334 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:48,919 Speaker 2: some of these things. I just to interpret it or 335 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 2: try to challenge or try to be factual as pointless. 336 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 2: Read it for yourselves and knock yourself out. But this 337 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 2: is a complete rewriting, And if you don't know anything 338 00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:00,200 Speaker 2: about January sixth, that somebody else in another country. You're 339 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 2: looking at that as fact. The White House put this out, 340 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 2: so surely this is all true. That's terrifying. 341 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: It's terrifying, you know, I hadn't thought about that that 342 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: people who are young enough who don't know there it 343 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: is people who weren't watching the people who are in 344 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 1: a different country, correct, who don't understand American polics, or 345 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,640 Speaker 1: who aren't immersed in it, or who might have heard 346 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 1: this that or the other goes onto our official White 347 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:28,440 Speaker 1: House dot gov page and reads this timeline of events. 348 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 1: It's that is frightening. 349 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, we usually have something a little lighter as our 350 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:40,120 Speaker 2: last story of the day. Apologies on this Wednesday, it's 351 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:40,680 Speaker 2: the hump. 352 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 1: Day where you're going to bring it home though with 353 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:43,639 Speaker 1: the quote of the day, that's. 354 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 2: A lot of pressure there, but no, what the hell 355 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 2: with it. I'll take it before we let you go. 356 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 2: As always something we were like for you to consider. 357 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,479 Speaker 2: It is our quote of the day. Now, it's funny 358 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:56,959 Speaker 2: to me and quote it is better to be hated 359 00:18:57,119 --> 00:19:01,680 Speaker 2: for who you are than be accept for who you are. 360 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 1: Not. 361 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 2: That's a tough one. Sometimes nobody wants to be hated, 362 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 2: but sometimes so many of us are okay with Yes, 363 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 2: you love me, you accept me, but I'm not really 364 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,639 Speaker 2: being myself. How many of us do that day and 365 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 2: day out? 366 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 1: I think everybody does that. Everybody wants to be liked, 367 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 1: Everybody wants to be accepted, and so we adjust our thoughts, 368 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,440 Speaker 1: our behaviors to try and make sure that happens. Yes, 369 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:32,360 Speaker 1: and I know plenty of times when you see people 370 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: who are authentic, you applaud them, you appreciate them, but 371 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:39,920 Speaker 1: they take it doesn't come with rainbows and butterflies. When 372 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 1: you are your authentic self, you won't please everybody, but 373 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 1: you're being true to yourself. And I think that is 374 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:48,440 Speaker 1: the takeaway. When you can be true to yourself, then 375 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 1: you are actually living an authentic life and that is 376 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 1: what brings you peace. 377 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 2: Well, folk, take that with you today. Our quote of 378 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 2: the day. It is better to be hated for who 379 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 2: you are than be accepted for who you are not. 380 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 2: And with that, folks, we always appreciate you going on 381 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 2: a run with us for now, I'm T.
