WEBVTT - Pugs Are God's Mistake 0:00:01.840 --> 0:00:06.160 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 0:00:06.200 --> 0:00:10.840 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong, Joe Getty, arm Strong and 0:00:10.960 --> 0:00:17.760 Getty and he Armstrong and Yetty. 0:00:24.200 --> 0:00:26.479 Meanwhile, I saw that Joanne Fabrics is going out of 0:00:26.480 --> 0:00:30.120 business and closing all of its stores. Yeah, now your 0:00:30.120 --> 0:00:32.600 mom knows how your dad feels about Hooter is going banking. 0:00:35.280 --> 0:00:38.360 Joanne Fabrics? Did you know? 0:00:39.240 --> 0:00:39.320 So? 0:00:39.440 --> 0:00:42.960 I got a question with my voice and being sick today, 0:00:42.960 --> 0:00:45.040 because your voice, your voice can go two ways. When 0:00:45.040 --> 0:00:48.600 you're sick, You can get and it sounds sexy, or 0:00:48.640 --> 0:00:50.600 you can just sound like you're dying, which am I 0:00:50.680 --> 0:00:55.120 closer to. Oh my god, thanks for putting me in 0:00:55.160 --> 0:00:58.440 that position. Uh, half and a half. 0:01:00.120 --> 0:01:01.400 Dying's not a sexy thing. 0:01:01.880 --> 0:01:06.920 Straddling the line between bedroom voice and one foot in 0:01:06.920 --> 0:01:07.320 the grave. 0:01:07.560 --> 0:01:09.280 Yes, I think they're like very white. 0:01:09.520 --> 0:01:11.200 It's funny that we do find and I find this 0:01:11.480 --> 0:01:15.160 kind of the husky, gravelly voice hot even for a woman. 0:01:15.200 --> 0:01:18.679 But if it crosses into your ill our animal brain thinks, 0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:19.560 get away from them. 0:01:19.560 --> 0:01:20.840 They've got something. 0:01:21.040 --> 0:01:24.679 Yes, yeah, that is interesting. Perhaps a linguist would like 0:01:24.720 --> 0:01:26.880 to write us a note and explain that for us, 0:01:27.240 --> 0:01:31.520 or an anthropologist or something like that. So it's funny 0:01:31.760 --> 0:01:35.080 about to go into the situation that Israel's facing as 0:01:35.160 --> 0:01:40.520 the ceasefire hostage negotiations thingy is about to draw to 0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:44.480 close this weekend, even though there are dozens more hostages 0:01:44.520 --> 0:01:48.120 being held. I said, fifty three maybe, and more than 0:01:48.160 --> 0:01:50.920 half of them are dead, allegedly murdered at the hands 0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:55.920 of Hamas, whether on October seventh or while in captivity. 0:01:56.240 --> 0:01:58.760 Did they ever actually give back the body of that 0:01:58.880 --> 0:01:59.960 mom from last weekend? 0:02:00.760 --> 0:02:02.080 No, not that I'm aware of them. 0:02:02.120 --> 0:02:04.440 And that's got to be because she is so brutalized 0:02:04.480 --> 0:02:06.520 and it would be so obvious. 0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:10.280 You know, I don't want. 0:02:10.200 --> 0:02:13.880 Say the things, but you know, it would be obvious 0:02:13.919 --> 0:02:15.200 how how she was treated. 0:02:15.280 --> 0:02:19.320 And they don't. They don't. They don't want that out there, right. 0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:22.320 I suppose it's conceivable that they lost the body, although 0:02:22.360 --> 0:02:26.840 I was listening to one very informed person on the 0:02:26.840 --> 0:02:29.400 topic say no, that's virtually impossible because they knew they 0:02:29.400 --> 0:02:32.000 were such important bargaining chips. But I don't know. I 0:02:32.000 --> 0:02:34.720 don't know for sure. So here's here's the story to 0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:37.480 get us into this. And you did not hear this 0:02:37.760 --> 0:02:40.400 on the news. It's an example of a couple of 0:02:40.440 --> 0:02:44.680 different stories that you just are not covered by American 0:02:44.760 --> 0:02:48.840 media because it makes them uncomfortable. If there is a 0:02:48.880 --> 0:02:54.800 bit of smoke on some airliner going from Minneapolis to Dubuque, 0:02:55.400 --> 0:02:58.720 you'll see it on every single newscast all day long. 0:02:59.240 --> 0:03:03.120 Here's the headline for you, Jiehattists behead seventy Christians in 0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:05.960 the Democratic Republic of the Congo. You know, I saw 0:03:06.000 --> 0:03:07.840 that the other day and I meant to check up 0:03:07.880 --> 0:03:09.440 on if that was real or not because I hadn't 0:03:09.440 --> 0:03:09.680 heard it. 0:03:09.720 --> 0:03:12.520 I thought this can't be real, or I would have 0:03:12.560 --> 0:03:13.280 heard about this. 0:03:13.960 --> 0:03:18.280 Yes, it's absolutely real. Why did it get no coverage? 0:03:18.600 --> 0:03:22.959 The Islamist group Allied Democratic Forces the ADF, surrounded the 0:03:23.040 --> 0:03:25.680 village of Such and Such, forced residents from their homes, 0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:28.480 rounded up total seventy Christian villagers, forced them into a 0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:31.880 Protestant church in the nearby town of Kasanga. It'd being 0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:35.200 abandoned by its congregants because of the security situation there. 0:03:35.240 --> 0:03:38.480 They murdered all seventy of them inside the church, with 0:03:38.600 --> 0:03:44.280 beheading reportedly their preferred method of execution. So mad, here's 0:03:44.280 --> 0:03:47.880 how horrific that was? Well, yeah, we could, but I'd 0:03:47.920 --> 0:03:51.400 prefer not too. And here's why we were talking last 0:03:51.400 --> 0:03:55.800 hour about how even on the center left now they 0:03:55.840 --> 0:03:59.400 are saying out loud, oh yeah, rampant, uncontrolled immigration is 0:03:59.680 --> 0:04:02.880 terrible for working people, it's terrible for average citizens. It's 0:04:02.880 --> 0:04:07.760 being rejected all over the world. And people were called racist. 0:04:07.560 --> 0:04:13.040 For trying to bring people's attention to rampant, uncontrolled immigration. 0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:14.360 How terrible that was. 0:04:14.720 --> 0:04:16.799 I mean, many of the same people who are saying 0:04:16.839 --> 0:04:18.480 it over and over again as those of us on 0:04:18.520 --> 0:04:21.120 the right side of the aisle were saying, Look, we 0:04:21.160 --> 0:04:23.000 can have lots of immigration. 0:04:22.560 --> 0:04:24.640 If you want. We just need laws and we need 0:04:24.680 --> 0:04:25.600 to follow the laws. 0:04:25.720 --> 0:04:29.040 So there has been a sea change in the way 0:04:29.080 --> 0:04:34.120 people talk about immigration now, and it's just so charming. Anyway, 0:04:34.600 --> 0:04:39.159 I find myself wondering whether a similar sea change is 0:04:39.200 --> 0:04:44.040 going to happen on the topic of Islamic supremacists, which 0:04:44.080 --> 0:04:49.120 is my preferred term these days. Islama fascists was common 0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:54.760 for a while, Shuria supremacists whatever, or justists. 0:04:55.320 --> 0:04:56.320 Yeah, Islamists. 0:04:56.360 --> 0:05:07.279 This is the branch of Islam that is expansionist, a conquering, military, legal, 0:05:07.760 --> 0:05:12.640 societal philosophy of Islam, which is very common around the world. 0:05:12.720 --> 0:05:14.240 It's certainly not universal. 0:05:14.800 --> 0:05:16.760 And I was thinking about how to present this, and 0:05:16.960 --> 0:05:20.120 you know, one obvious comparison is to be white is 0:05:20.160 --> 0:05:23.680 not to be a white supremacist, unlike what Joy Reid 0:05:23.800 --> 0:05:27.240 and the DEI crowd would tell you, mostly so they 0:05:27.240 --> 0:05:29.800 could call you into silence and take over institutions and 0:05:30.000 --> 0:05:33.960 usher and neomarxism anyway. And to be Muslim is not 0:05:33.960 --> 0:05:37.359 to be an Islamic supremacist at all. On the other hand, 0:05:37.480 --> 0:05:41.239 it exists as an ideology. It's well armed, it's absolutely brutal, 0:05:41.480 --> 0:05:43.599 and it thinks God is on its side, and it's 0:05:43.720 --> 0:05:47.000 more than happy to martyr lots of people, including women 0:05:47.000 --> 0:05:50.000 and children, because they think they go straight to heaven 0:05:50.040 --> 0:05:53.760 and is great. And I just wonder whether the world 0:05:53.880 --> 0:05:55.440 is going to wake up to it and start talking 0:05:55.480 --> 0:05:56.520 about it openly. 0:05:57.040 --> 0:05:57.960 Here's a headline for you. 0:05:58.080 --> 0:06:01.159 A decimated Hamas prepares for a new fight with Israel. 0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:04.560 They've recorded a recruited thousands of new fighters. They hand 0:06:04.600 --> 0:06:07.280 them pamphlets on how to be guerrilla warriors. That's most 0:06:07.279 --> 0:06:09.360 of the training, and now they're willing to go back 0:06:09.400 --> 0:06:11.520 to war with the evil Jews to wipe them off 0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:12.239 the face of the earth. 0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:18.560 There are currently one point nine billion Muslims in the world. 0:06:18.600 --> 0:06:24.400 I just looked that up. I don't know what percentage 0:06:25.640 --> 0:06:31.200 are okay with sharia law the way attacked it out 0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:34.200 by the crazies, but it wouldn't need to be a 0:06:34.279 --> 0:06:35.840 very big percentage to be a hell of a lot 0:06:35.839 --> 0:06:36.200 of people. 0:06:36.200 --> 0:06:38.400 When the total number is almost two. 0:06:38.200 --> 0:06:41.240 Billion, Well if it were twenty percent, for instance, that 0:06:41.320 --> 0:06:45.000 would be three hundred and eighty million people, far larger 0:06:45.040 --> 0:06:49.560 than the United States of America bent worldwide on conquest 0:06:50.240 --> 0:06:52.680 and the slaughter of the non believers. 0:06:53.279 --> 0:06:55.479 Just to back up to your original story, why do 0:06:55.560 --> 0:07:02.000 you think seventy Christians being beheaded by Muslims doesn't make 0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:03.120 the news. 0:07:04.360 --> 0:07:07.080 The utterly. 0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:13.240 Strange subculture that is the American media is so dedicated 0:07:13.600 --> 0:07:19.320 to their woke principles. A they they're just super uncomfortable 0:07:19.440 --> 0:07:22.000 saying anything critical about anything foreign. 0:07:22.120 --> 0:07:23.120 There's Zeno files. 0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:26.600 And the second thing is and they would tell you 0:07:26.640 --> 0:07:27.840 this because they're so deluded. 0:07:28.160 --> 0:07:29.480 You know, the story's horrible. 0:07:29.600 --> 0:07:34.559 But if we were to report that Islamophobia might rise 0:07:34.640 --> 0:07:38.520 and there might be a backlash against peace loving Muslims. 0:07:39.480 --> 0:07:40.960 I mean, we've heard that over and over again. 0:07:41.880 --> 0:07:44.560 Well wait, now we also know you'd get bigger pushback 0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:52.840 from Muslim activists to your management, advertisers, whatever, So just 0:07:54.000 --> 0:07:55.760 makes it more difficult. 0:07:55.800 --> 0:08:01.720 And care Right, which is an utterly awful organization that 0:08:01.880 --> 0:08:06.240 is more than happy to support Islamism, Islamic supremacism when 0:08:06.280 --> 0:08:08.720 it can, while acting like their moderates. 0:08:09.160 --> 0:08:09.600 They are. 0:08:09.640 --> 0:08:11.800 They're always on the march. They're trying to cow people 0:08:11.800 --> 0:08:16.520 into submission, have for decades. Now one more note and 0:08:16.560 --> 0:08:18.120 then we need to take a break. And I want 0:08:18.120 --> 0:08:19.560 to come back because I haven't even gotten to the 0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:22.840 main point of this screed, which is about to unfold 0:08:22.880 --> 0:08:24.720 in front of all of our eyes and be the 0:08:24.760 --> 0:08:27.160 biggest story on earth probably Wow. 0:08:27.160 --> 0:08:28.320 And that's the renewed. 0:08:28.000 --> 0:08:31.560 Fighting in Gaza, slash the West Bank, slash Israel. 0:08:32.480 --> 0:08:39.160 Ilia Shapiro, the law professor tweeted this. It is. 0:08:41.440 --> 0:08:49.120 The map of the Palestinian state that Ahoud old Merit proposed. 0:08:50.280 --> 0:08:53.720 He's the former Prime Minister of Israel. This is one 0:08:53.880 --> 0:08:57.120 of the offers for a Palestinian state that. 0:08:58.440 --> 0:09:00.120 The PLO and the and the. 0:09:01.840 --> 0:09:06.480 PLA and then Hamas now have rejected. And if you 0:09:06.480 --> 0:09:12.400 could see this map, it is an enormous Palestinian state. 0:09:12.559 --> 0:09:16.600 It's very very generous. It's everything they ask for, and 0:09:16.640 --> 0:09:20.600 it's and it was rejected like every other settlement that 0:09:20.720 --> 0:09:24.520 Jimmy Carter came to, that Bill Clinton came to. 0:09:24.920 --> 0:09:25.920 It's because they. 0:09:25.840 --> 0:09:28.880 Don't want a Palestinian state as much as they want 0:09:28.920 --> 0:09:31.600 to wipe the Jews off the map and have all 0:09:31.640 --> 0:09:35.800 of it. That is the only position that they will accept. 0:09:36.280 --> 0:09:40.079 And there's no negotiating it with them. They only negotiate 0:09:40.160 --> 0:09:43.200 to cover that because they are say it with me, 0:09:43.600 --> 0:09:49.880 Islamic supremacists. That's not the controversial part. The controversial part 0:09:50.520 --> 0:09:54.120 after a short break, Well, you're dealing with people in 0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:59.920 Hamas who murder babies with their bare hands, and as 0:10:00.040 --> 0:10:02.360 we learned from that report that came out last week, 0:10:03.720 --> 0:10:06.360 in some cases the majority of the people that went 0:10:06.400 --> 0:10:11.040 into Israel in October seventh were just regular Palestinians. They 0:10:11.040 --> 0:10:15.360 weren't members of Hamas. Right, We're just pretty horrifying. Getting 0:10:15.400 --> 0:10:19.480 back to what percentage, yeah, et cetera. Yeah, So the 0:10:19.760 --> 0:10:23.800 really controversial part probably a career ender a boy coming 0:10:23.880 --> 0:10:25.600 up next, stay with us. 0:10:29.280 --> 0:10:31.640 I think it's freaking shocking. 0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:37.920 Seventy Christians were beheaded by Muslim radicals, and it doesn't 0:10:37.960 --> 0:10:38.680 make the news. 0:10:39.440 --> 0:10:42.560 No, as we said, if some stortis falls down and 0:10:42.720 --> 0:10:45.600 hurts her knee on an airplane. Lately, it makes the 0:10:45.640 --> 0:10:49.720 news constantly because we're fixated on airplanes with seventy Christians beheaded. 0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:51.640 No, because the media is uncomfortable with that. 0:10:51.880 --> 0:10:54.640 It might cause an anti Muslim backlash anyway, if you're 0:10:54.640 --> 0:10:57.360 just tuning in number one where you've been. Secondly, we 0:10:57.360 --> 0:11:02.800 were talking about how we're hoping people start talking honestly 0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:07.920 about Islamic supremacists Islamism the way all of a sudden, 0:11:08.000 --> 0:11:11.800 now it's fine to say rampant immigration is terrible for 0:11:11.880 --> 0:11:14.960 countries when you were called a racist for saying that 0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:19.480 for decades. Anyway, a couple of thoughts really quickly, and 0:11:19.520 --> 0:11:23.080 then to the main point. Finally, there's a big rally 0:11:23.120 --> 0:11:26.160 in New York City on that big, medium sized for 0:11:28.720 --> 0:11:33.800 Hassan Nazraala, the dead Hasbola leader, and the reporter from 0:11:33.840 --> 0:11:39.600 the Free Press went in and all the Kafia wearing hamas, 0:11:39.720 --> 0:11:43.760 flag waving candles and pictures people. They had a hard 0:11:43.760 --> 0:11:45.920 time finding anybody who even knew the name of the 0:11:45.960 --> 0:11:49.800 person or who they were or what they did. They 0:11:49.880 --> 0:11:51.559 just knew they were supposed to show up as part 0:11:51.559 --> 0:11:54.600 of the brave resistance and put on their terrorist scarf. 0:11:55.520 --> 0:11:57.360 As I heard it characterized the other day, it's just 0:11:57.480 --> 0:12:00.280 utterly foolish. It's like all the college kids who say 0:12:00.559 --> 0:12:02.400 chant from the river to the sea, but they don't 0:12:02.440 --> 0:12:07.160 know what river and what sea. Moving along editorial here 0:12:07.320 --> 0:12:13.559 from early curlyonchik Yuri curlyon chick I should say he's 0:12:13.600 --> 0:12:15.640 an Israeli, he says. When I was a boy, Israel 0:12:15.679 --> 0:12:17.839 was a leftist country. We had a huge We had 0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:21.120 huge peace rallies. The Oslo Accords were celebrated as if 0:12:21.120 --> 0:12:22.679 they were going to save the world, and we even 0:12:22.720 --> 0:12:25.480 had a subject in school called peace in honor of 0:12:25.520 --> 0:12:28.240 our treaty with Jordan. People who were skeptical of this 0:12:28.280 --> 0:12:31.600 all consuming love fest reviews were viewed as crazy racists 0:12:31.600 --> 0:12:35.960 and messionic fanatics. To even suggest that not all societies 0:12:36.000 --> 0:12:39.720 wanted peace was seen as vulgar and uncouth. Nice people 0:12:39.800 --> 0:12:43.520 cried for the innocent on both sides. The saying was, 0:12:43.559 --> 0:12:46.240 we could forgive the Arabs for killing our children, but 0:12:46.400 --> 0:12:50.160 not for making us kill theirs. But then this euphoria 0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:53.520 of peace was followed by decades of barbarism and that 0:12:53.640 --> 0:12:57.160 eroded the pity reserves of the majority of the Israeli people. 0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:04.040 Then he goes through the long list of slaughters and 0:13:04.520 --> 0:13:08.160 bus explosions and child murders that I don't even want 0:13:08.200 --> 0:13:12.640 to describe to you. People were mutilated, castrated, crippled, not 0:13:12.720 --> 0:13:17.240 as collateral damage, but meticulously with sadistic precision by an enemy. 0:13:17.280 --> 0:13:20.720 You preferred to go after defenseless civilians who seemed to 0:13:20.720 --> 0:13:23.320 revel in atrocity, as if atrocity was an end in 0:13:23.360 --> 0:13:24.120 and of itself. 0:13:24.400 --> 0:13:26.040 Well, did you know there was a near miss over 0:13:26.040 --> 0:13:27.400 the weekend They got no reporting. 0:13:29.000 --> 0:13:35.240 Several buses Israeli buses had explosions on them overnight and 0:13:35.280 --> 0:13:37.960 the guesses and Hamas has taken credit for this. The 0:13:38.040 --> 0:13:40.920 guess is, just like we all have done with our 0:13:40.960 --> 0:13:44.720 alarm clock, they got the AMPM wrong on setting the bombs. 0:13:44.760 --> 0:13:46.920 They went off when the buses were empty. But if 0:13:46.960 --> 0:13:49.360 they'd have gone off as it is suspected they were 0:13:49.400 --> 0:13:51.640 supposed to, this would be the biggest story going on 0:13:51.760 --> 0:13:54.200 right now. They'd evand they went off just after midnight 0:13:54.200 --> 0:13:56.640 instead of lunchtime, it would have been one of the 0:13:56.640 --> 0:13:59.600 biggest attacks in the history of attacking. 0:13:59.160 --> 0:14:00.880 Israel, I'll be talking about it. 0:14:01.240 --> 0:14:05.920 And then juxtaposed that with, as we said last segment, 0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:11.480 the multiple peace plans for a two state solution that 0:14:11.559 --> 0:14:15.680 were at the last second rejected by the leadership of 0:14:15.720 --> 0:14:20.640 Hamas or the PLO or whatever, leaving American lefties Righty's 0:14:20.720 --> 0:14:24.480 everybody shaking their heads thinking, I thought we had the deal. 0:14:25.120 --> 0:14:27.760 Let's because they don't want the deal. Brings me to 0:14:27.800 --> 0:14:32.040 the ultimate point. I think it's absolutely correct. Andrew Roberts 0:14:32.080 --> 0:14:35.960 wrote this in the Free Press, the historical case for 0:14:36.040 --> 0:14:41.120 Trump's Gaza plan, and it's not the Mara Gaza part 0:14:41.160 --> 0:14:47.480 of it, but it's essentially total victory. And he says 0:14:47.720 --> 0:14:50.960 historical precedent suggests that Hamas's invasion of southern Israel that 0:14:51.080 --> 0:14:56.560 day on October seventh, and its punishment by the Israeli 0:14:56.600 --> 0:14:59.280 defense forces have severe implications for whether the Gazas still 0:14:59.280 --> 0:15:01.080 have the right to decide their own destiny and who 0:15:01.120 --> 0:15:04.600 governs them. And then he makes an inescapable historical point 0:15:04.960 --> 0:15:07.880 that I don't think the modern world is willing to 0:15:07.880 --> 0:15:11.000 say out loud, even though everybody knows. 0:15:10.800 --> 0:15:11.520 It to be true. 0:15:11.560 --> 0:15:15.200 Anybody who has any sense again, and again in the past, 0:15:15.640 --> 0:15:19.960 people who unleash unprovoked aggressive wars against their neighbors and 0:15:20.040 --> 0:15:22.920 are then defeated, as the godsens have been on any 0:15:22.920 --> 0:15:27.640 conceivable metric, lose either their government or their sovereignty or both. 0:15:28.440 --> 0:15:31.240 It would be strange, he says in an understatement. Were 0:15:31.280 --> 0:15:35.520 Hamas somehow to buck this historical trend again, you on 0:15:35.640 --> 0:15:39.120 leishan unprovoked aggressive war against your neighbor and are then defeated. 0:15:39.640 --> 0:15:44.360 You're done every damn time in history. 0:15:44.680 --> 0:15:47.680 The Boer Wars in Southern Africa, the transvall and Orange 0:15:47.720 --> 0:15:50.600 Free State, British colonies, and blah blah uh, you got 0:15:50.640 --> 0:15:55.240 the Nazis and the Sudate Land, the Czech State and 0:15:55.280 --> 0:15:59.320 everything else they did, and a bunch of other historical examples. 0:15:59.760 --> 0:16:02.440 It's always the same, because if you think about it, 0:16:02.480 --> 0:16:06.520 what is the especially when it's done repeatedly, repeatedly, friends, 0:16:06.680 --> 0:16:10.840 what's the alternative saying all right now, you can't do 0:16:11.000 --> 0:16:15.480 that anymore, Okay, we'll live peacefully side by side. It's 0:16:15.600 --> 0:16:21.760 almost funny when you say it out loud, especially given 0:16:21.880 --> 0:16:25.960 the history of it. The only thing the radical Islamists 0:16:25.960 --> 0:16:28.960 have done during periods of peace is prepare themselves for 0:16:29.080 --> 0:16:33.520 new and horrifying attacks, and you people saying, well, Israel 0:16:33.600 --> 0:16:36.600 really needs to negotiate a two state solution. You are 0:16:36.720 --> 0:16:41.200 living in a dreamland and Israel has finally woken up 0:16:41.200 --> 0:16:41.920 to that fact. 0:16:43.520 --> 0:16:46.600 So do you think that's what's gonna start back up 0:16:46.600 --> 0:16:49.600 here again soon? And this time around with the backing 0:16:49.680 --> 0:16:53.160 of the US president, not the US president constantly saying 0:16:53.280 --> 0:16:55.040 don't right right? 0:16:55.600 --> 0:17:00.320 VC France joined with the Allies gone, Imperial Japan attack, 0:17:00.400 --> 0:17:04.160 Pearl Harbor gone, North Korea, attacked South Korea and June 0:17:04.240 --> 0:17:07.800 nineteen fifty punished terribly, became a prie estate. 0:17:08.040 --> 0:17:11.119 As history interesting, we had a lot more on the 0:17:11.119 --> 0:17:12.840 way if you missed a secment to get the podcast 0:17:13.119 --> 0:17:14.280 Armstrong and Getty. 0:17:15.480 --> 0:17:20.280 Chicago's Midway Airport a runway disaster averted by seconds. Southwest 0:17:20.320 --> 0:17:22.960 seven thirty seven comes in for landing that jet going 0:17:22.960 --> 0:17:25.600 one hundred and fifty miles per hour, just feet before 0:17:25.600 --> 0:17:28.719 touching down. When the quick thinking pilots abort the landing, 0:17:28.920 --> 0:17:32.000 pulling back into the air just as that private business 0:17:32.080 --> 0:17:35.560 jet crossing in front of them, Those Southwest pilots asking 0:17:35.600 --> 0:17:39.280 air traffic control what went wrong? Air Traffic Control told 0:17:39.359 --> 0:17:42.880 that flex jet aircraft not to cross that runway. If 0:17:42.920 --> 0:17:46.040 the Southwest crew hadn't been so alert and seeing this 0:17:46.119 --> 0:17:49.360 aircraft crossing the runway, this could have been a terrible, 0:17:49.480 --> 0:17:50.880 terrible tragedy. 0:17:50.880 --> 0:17:51.680 Could have been. 0:17:53.040 --> 0:17:55.640 I like how they described the pilots as quick thinking, 0:17:56.920 --> 0:17:59.120 as if you know, you see another plane crossing your 0:17:59.119 --> 0:18:01.320 own runway and turned to the co pilot and say, 0:18:01.359 --> 0:18:03.959 what do you suppose we ought to do? I mean, 0:18:03.960 --> 0:18:05.720 there's another plane right where we're going. 0:18:06.200 --> 0:18:09.600 Hmm, wait a minute, we could pull up. 0:18:10.240 --> 0:18:14.240 Well. That led every national newscast last night, and there's 0:18:14.280 --> 0:18:18.080 the implication that something's going on with flying. Every day 0:18:18.119 --> 0:18:23.120 there's a near disaster or a disaster, and I hope 0:18:23.119 --> 0:18:27.040 it's not the shark attacks of pre nine to eleven 0:18:27.119 --> 0:18:30.719 happening right now where we're having the plane scare of 0:18:30.760 --> 0:18:33.600 the day before something major in real happens. 0:18:34.359 --> 0:18:36.800 Some of the stories are pretty dopey, but I think 0:18:36.800 --> 0:18:40.840 it's a legit story that the FAA and our air 0:18:40.840 --> 0:18:44.600 traffic control system is antiquate and south dated, it's understaffed. 0:18:45.200 --> 0:18:48.320 I think that's a legit story. This is a legit story. 0:18:48.400 --> 0:18:51.120 So lots of talk about the world richest man Elon Musk, 0:18:51.160 --> 0:18:53.040 Who's going to be in the cabinet meeting today. This 0:18:53.200 --> 0:18:55.560 is interesting having a cabinet meeting and Elon is going to. 0:18:55.560 --> 0:19:00.040 Be there and they can wear it fast as the 0:19:00.119 --> 0:19:06.680 chief advisor to Trump. Okay, Department of Government efficiency. 0:19:06.920 --> 0:19:09.480 But checking in with the second rigishment man in the world, 0:19:09.560 --> 0:19:14.400 Jeff Bezos. Today he tweeted out this note he shared 0:19:14.920 --> 0:19:17.879 with his workers at the Washington Post. Case you don't know, 0:19:17.960 --> 0:19:21.119 Jeff Bezos owns Amazon. That's why he's the world's second 0:19:21.200 --> 0:19:24.480 richest man. And he also owns the Washington Post. And 0:19:24.560 --> 0:19:27.760 he this is what he tweeted out. I shared this 0:19:27.880 --> 0:19:30.560 note with the Washington Post team this morning. I'm writing 0:19:30.600 --> 0:19:32.639 to let you know about a change coming to our 0:19:32.680 --> 0:19:36.040 opinion pages. We're going to be writing every day in 0:19:36.080 --> 0:19:40.320 support and defense of two pillars, personal liberties and free markets. 0:19:40.760 --> 0:19:43.480 We'll cover other topics too, of course, but viewpoints opposing 0:19:43.480 --> 0:19:45.560 those pillars will be left to be published by others. 0:19:47.320 --> 0:19:48.399 Wow, I know. 0:19:50.840 --> 0:19:56.800 Je Again, their opinion pages are going to stress personal 0:19:56.880 --> 0:20:00.360 liberties and free markets. He goes on, there was time 0:20:00.400 --> 0:20:02.880 on a newspaper, especially one that was a local monopoly, 0:20:03.119 --> 0:20:04.720 might have seen it as a service to bring to 0:20:04.760 --> 0:20:07.480 the reader's doorstep every morning a broad based opinion section 0:20:07.760 --> 0:20:11.200 that sought to cover all views. Today, the Internet does 0:20:11.240 --> 0:20:14.560 that job. I am of America and for America, and 0:20:14.600 --> 0:20:17.000 proud to be so. Our country did not get here 0:20:17.040 --> 0:20:19.960 by being typical, and a big part of America's success 0:20:19.960 --> 0:20:22.360 has been freedom in the economic realm and everywhere else. 0:20:22.600 --> 0:20:27.760 Freedom is ethical, It minimizes coercion and practical. It drives creativity, invention, 0:20:27.840 --> 0:20:28.600 and prosperity. 0:20:29.840 --> 0:20:35.600 Halle Louisa, I know, wow, Finally, finally. 0:20:35.200 --> 0:20:36.920 Everybody's understood we're in a fight. 0:20:37.840 --> 0:20:40.240 I always better fight for the things we cherished, because 0:20:40.320 --> 0:20:42.720 we've assumed everybody liked him for too long. 0:20:43.359 --> 0:20:43.879 He goes on. 0:20:44.600 --> 0:20:48.560 I offered David Shipley, whom I greatly admire, the opportunity 0:20:48.600 --> 0:20:51.240 to lead this new chapter. I I know that name, 0:20:51.240 --> 0:20:55.320 but I don't remember who that is anyway, Jeff Bezos says. 0:20:55.359 --> 0:20:58.440 I suggested to him that if the answer wasn't hell yes, 0:20:58.520 --> 0:21:01.639 then it had to be no. After careful consideration, David 0:21:01.640 --> 0:21:04.639 decided to step away. This is a significant shift. It 0:21:04.680 --> 0:21:07.600 won't be easy, and it will require one hundred percent commitment. 0:21:07.800 --> 0:21:10.000 I respect his decision. We'll be searching for a new 0:21:10.000 --> 0:21:13.560 opinion editor to own this new direction. I'm confident that 0:21:13.600 --> 0:21:17.760 three free markets and personal liberties are right for America. 0:21:17.840 --> 0:21:20.720 I also believe these viewpoints are underserved in the current 0:21:20.760 --> 0:21:22.480 market of ideas and news opinion. 0:21:22.720 --> 0:21:26.000 I'm excited for us together to fill that void. Oh 0:21:26.040 --> 0:21:29.359 my god, how fantastic is this. They're gonna have to 0:21:29.480 --> 0:21:33.200 install like gutters and drains there at the WAPO to 0:21:33.680 --> 0:21:37.399 channel the bitter tears of the young wolkesters. But this this, 0:21:38.680 --> 0:21:41.040 to do it, it's great, But to say it so 0:21:41.280 --> 0:21:44.080 forcefully and publicly is even better. 0:21:44.160 --> 0:21:46.320 We need a hell of a lot more of that. 0:21:47.160 --> 0:21:50.720 Well, he's saying, in effect one, we're going to emphasize 0:21:50.760 --> 0:21:56.040 personal liberty and economic freedom and it's underserved yes in 0:21:56.080 --> 0:21:58.480 the national media, and we're gonna fill that role. 0:21:59.520 --> 0:21:59.920 I love it. 0:22:00.280 --> 0:22:02.119 And if you're not for it, as he told the 0:22:02.119 --> 0:22:04.640 guy currently running the opinion page, if you're not hell yes, 0:22:04.760 --> 0:22:06.879 then you're a no. And the guy was clearly not 0:22:06.880 --> 0:22:09.240 a hell yes. So get I'll find somebody who is 0:22:09.240 --> 0:22:09.800 a hell yes. 0:22:10.720 --> 0:22:14.600 Here's the counter argument, because it popped up in my head. Well, 0:22:14.720 --> 0:22:17.480 having a range of views on every topic is the 0:22:17.520 --> 0:22:21.000 traditional role of the op ed sections, as he mentioned, 0:22:21.560 --> 0:22:24.679 and it seems weird and like controlling to get away 0:22:24.680 --> 0:22:30.280 from that. But my answer would be he's one hundred 0:22:30.400 --> 0:22:35.080 percent right, and it's really important to say so, especially 0:22:35.160 --> 0:22:37.840 now because so many of our young have been indoctrinated 0:22:38.119 --> 0:22:41.280 into thinking the opposite, that the US is a force 0:22:41.320 --> 0:22:44.520 for bad, that free markets are somehow exploitive, and that 0:22:44.640 --> 0:22:48.120 socialism is the way forward. Look, I've heard the arguments 0:22:48.119 --> 0:22:51.120 for socialism, communism, collectivism my entire life. 0:22:51.200 --> 0:22:54.480 They suck. Well, let me put it this, I should 0:22:54.480 --> 0:22:54.959 put it like this. 0:22:55.800 --> 0:23:02.360 They're seductive, but they always end in disaster, always, always, always. 0:23:02.560 --> 0:23:05.720 I'm old enough to be confident to say that now, Yeah, 0:23:05.720 --> 0:23:06.000 I would. 0:23:06.840 --> 0:23:09.840 Yeah, we got to know we're not gonna see the 0:23:10.359 --> 0:23:14.800
