1 00:00:01,480 --> 00:00:04,439 Speaker 1: Hey, it's weird back on normally the show with normalist 2 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:06,560 Speaker 1: takes or when the news gets weird. 3 00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:07,720 Speaker 2: I am Mary Yasin. 4 00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:11,560 Speaker 3: Him, and I am Carol Marco. It's back with a 5 00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:14,800 Speaker 3: slightly raspy voice today. But I like to say it 6 00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:17,240 Speaker 3: sounds like I only smoke a few cigarettes to day 7 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:19,160 Speaker 3: instead of a few packs. 8 00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:22,480 Speaker 2: It's good. I think it's like it's Kathleen Turner esque exactly. 9 00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:23,760 Speaker 3: That's what we're going here. 10 00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:26,120 Speaker 4: I like it. Oh. 11 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 1: I did want to tell at the beginning of the 12 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 1: show that I did see Robert ro'keane in Colorado last night, 13 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 1: who was a Kerrville, Texas. 14 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,559 Speaker 2: That's his hometown. He sent his kids when they were 15 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 2: children to Camp Mystic. 16 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 1: So it was a heavier concert than Kelly and I 17 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 1: had anticipated, but in the style of what you might 18 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:48,240 Speaker 1: expect of a cowboy poet. He was very stoic and 19 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:51,839 Speaker 1: the event raised money for folks in Texas. 20 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 2: He did the job well. 21 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 1: Was a beautiful concert, beautiful music, and I sort of 22 00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 1: admired the stoicism of it. 23 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 2: You could tell he was he had shades on the 24 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 2: whole time. 25 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: I think he's had. It's a tough time for everybody 26 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: and for people who are even closer to it. Just 27 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 1: unimaginable stuff. So I appreciated his hard work. 28 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 3: I have to note I loved your episode with Kelly. 29 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 3: I really enjoyed it. You know, my little dirty secret 30 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 3: is I don't I don't really listen to podcasts. 31 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:22,960 Speaker 2: Well, welcome to ours. 32 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 3: So the fact that I really liked it made me think, like, wow, 33 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:28,919 Speaker 3: should I be listening to more podcasting? 34 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 2: There you go. 35 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 3: I also downloaded some Robert Earl Keane music. Excellent. I 36 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 3: really didn't know it before I started with The Road 37 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 3: Goes On Forever and got into a bunch of other stuff. 38 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 3: It was great. 39 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:43,479 Speaker 2: That's a good choice to start with. 40 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 3: So we'll kick off with what I think is one 41 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 3: of the most undernoticed, underreported stories in the country, and 42 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 3: that is that people are trying to kill ICE agents. 43 00:01:56,360 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 3: ICE facility in Texas was targeted by an Antifa group. 44 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 3: They were there to kill allegedly ICE agents Andy No reports. 45 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 3: These are the ten alleged members of a North Texas 46 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 3: Antifa terror cell accused of carrying out the attempted murder 47 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 3: of federal officers at a shooting terrorist attack on an 48 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 3: ICE facility on the fourth of July and Alvarado, Texas. 49 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 3: One local police officer was shot in the neck and survived. 50 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 3: The group was armed with multiple rifles, pistols, body armor, 51 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 3: escape vehicles, radios, and other devices, indicating a planned conspiracy. 52 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 3: These people have been charged federally with attempted murder, and 53 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 3: they also faced local charges in Johnston County, Texas Johnston County. 54 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 3: A few days later, a different police officer was shot 55 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 3: in McCallan, Texas by an active shooter attempting to ambush 56 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 3: Border Patrol agents. Also been vandalism aimed at ICE agents. 57 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:01,679 Speaker 3: Four people were arrested in Los angele Lists using homemade 58 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 3: nail devices to damage a Border Patrol vehicle. It's really bad. Meanwhile, 59 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 3: Araldo Rivera and others are tweeting cops don't need to 60 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 3: wear masks. They deal with the most dangerous elements of society. 61 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 3: Why do ICE agents wear masks? What are they hiding? 62 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 3: They're hiding from crazy people, is what they're hiding. 63 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 2: Well, and it's always everyone else. 64 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 1: The mask discourse is always so frustrating because you know, 65 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: I was alive in twenty twenty, so that part just 66 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: blows my mind. But also, just like every Columbia student 67 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: who wants to throw something at a cop is welcome 68 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: to wear thirteen masks on their face and never tell 69 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 1: us who they are. I get people's concerns, but I 70 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 1: do not think these people are sincere. 71 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 2: They change their. 72 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 1: Minds based on who has a mask on at any 73 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: given moment for whatever reason exactly. 74 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 3: And I think that the idea for them is that 75 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 3: they want to make TSA agents afraid. They want them 76 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 3: to not want to take the job, and they want 77 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 3: it to be harder for these people to do their jobs. 78 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:17,599 Speaker 3: Senator Alex Padilla has introduced a bill to ban ICE 79 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 3: agents from wearing masks, So yeah, well yeah. 80 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: Can I also note that Axios reported that a bunch 81 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 1: of Democrats are hearing messages from their constituents that are 82 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: just like upping the antient over and over and over again, 83 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,600 Speaker 1: to the point of telling Democrats that they need to 84 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: elected officials need to go to ICE facilities and endure 85 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: being shot in order to overcome the fascism. They want blood, 86 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: and if it's going to be Democrats blood, that's also 87 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 1: fine with them, because that's what is necessary to fight 88 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 1: this great evil. 89 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 3: I mean, I want to really is not putting words 90 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 3: in their mouths is our own base is telling us 91 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 3: that what we're doing is not good enough, that there 92 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 3: needs to be blood to grab the attention of the 93 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 3: press and the public. A Democratic lawmaker told Axios. 94 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, and this is the same thing as always, Carol, 95 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: which is, since the beginning of the Trump era, the 96 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 1: rationale for the left has been it doesn't matter if 97 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 1: we violate all the norms, because we are living in 98 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:36,039 Speaker 1: extraordinary times and we are fighting a force that is 99 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:37,279 Speaker 1: violating all the norms. 100 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 2: Right, So that's. 101 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 1: The justification for anything. You can justify anything to yourself 102 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 1: at that point. And to have your constituents telling you 103 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: that blood needs to be spilled while these actual active 104 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,119 Speaker 1: shootings are going on just seems like things are getting 105 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:55,119 Speaker 1: off the rails here, guys. 106 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 3: Yeah. Another quote from the Axiole story, a Fourth House 107 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 3: Democrat said, constituents have told them quote civility isn't working 108 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,720 Speaker 3: end quote, and to prepare for quote violence, to fight 109 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 3: to protect our democracy end quote. It's scary. It's scary 110 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 3: that this is so out in the open. I just 111 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 3: I imagine the outrage if it were the right saying 112 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 3: we need blood. We need blood in order to be pushed. 113 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:29,359 Speaker 1: I want to screenshot that Brian Stelter tweet where he's like, 114 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: it's only coming. 115 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:31,040 Speaker 2: From one side. 116 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, just put it all over every single one 117 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: of these stories. Right, But this is what the media does, 118 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: and it really is. It's just misinformation and disinformation. Is 119 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: they sort of alchemize lefty violence into righty violence, or 120 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,839 Speaker 1: they ignore it entirely. And if you ignore it entirely, 121 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 1: it's easy to look around and go like, oh, I 122 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,359 Speaker 1: guess only the right does this. No, that's because you 123 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 1: disappeared all the other ones. 124 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 2: Right, You can't. You don't have a full data set, guys. 125 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 3: Exactly. Meanwhile, is this issue popular with voters from the 126 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:11,239 Speaker 3: Democratic side or from the Republican side? Let's find out 127 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 3: from you know, not a right wing source. Let's go 128 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 3: to CNN and see what they're saying over there. 129 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 4: All immigrants who are here illegally fifty five percent of 130 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 4: New York Times Marquette sixty four percent, CBS News fifty 131 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 4: per ABC News with a slightly different question fifty six percent. 132 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 4: So what you're seeing essentially here is very clear indication 133 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 4: that a majority of Americans in fact, when they're asked 134 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 4: us one question, which I believe gets that the underlying 135 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 4: feelings do in fact want to port all immigrants who 136 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 4: are here illegally. There's no arguing with these different numbers 137 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 4: because they're all essentially the same across four different posters. 138 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 3: Yeah. 139 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: I love these segments, by the way, and I just 140 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 1: have to say. 141 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 3: It against accents where perfect where Harry. 142 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: Enton's up there again just telling CNN and stuff it 143 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: doesn't want to hear, and poor Kate has to stand 144 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: by the board and go, hum, interesting, you're telling me 145 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 1: that all of my suppositions are incorrect. This is uncomfortable 146 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: for everyone every time. 147 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 3: So good, but it really goes to show that they 148 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 3: are missing what the majority of the country wants. These 149 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 3: are crazy numbers. I have to say that I wouldn't 150 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 3: have guessed the numbers are these this high. 151 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 1: Because that's a deport all illegal immigrants number, that is 152 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: not a criminal immigrants number. All. 153 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 3: I would say just a few years ago, they I mean, 154 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 3: these numbers would have been half maybe, and even now 155 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 3: it's surprising. In the sixties, over sixty percent of Americans 156 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 3: and some polls want to deport all illegal immigrants. That's startling, 157 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,200 Speaker 3: and it really goes to show how bad things got 158 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 3: in the Biden administration, and I just think they're on 159 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 3: the wrong side of this. 160 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, just a what a what a giant miscalculation by 161 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: the Biden administration that you know, uncon trolled four years 162 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: of millions of people coming across the borders. How to 163 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 1: make everybody feel like this is awesome? Nope, opposite direction. 164 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 3: Yep. Meanwhile, Alligator Alcatraz has opened in my beloved Florida. 165 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,719 Speaker 3: It is just a place to hold people who are 166 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 3: being deported. And there's a story in the Miami Herald 167 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 3: that attempts to make this place sound horrific. Toilets that 168 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:31,559 Speaker 3: didn't flush, temperatures that went from freezing to sweltering. Now 169 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 3: it's July and Florida, I'll buy sweltering. 170 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 2: Freezing freezing, can you get Yeah? 171 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 3: Are we talking an air conditioner blowing on somebody? Like 172 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 3: what what are you saying? A hospitalization that turned out 173 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 3: not to be true. And you know, it's again crazy 174 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 3: that the media and the Democrats have decided that their 175 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 3: key constituency that they are going to spend the most 176 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 3: amount of time catering to our people who are in 177 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 3: the country illegally, especially with the poll numbers that we 178 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 3: just read. It makes no sense. 179 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 2: It makes no sense. 180 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: I want to quote sunny Right at Sunny Right, one 181 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,839 Speaker 1: of my favorite follows who says, who sniffs out the 182 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 1: game here? No, you can't send them home, their homes 183 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 1: are too risky. No, you can't deport them to a 184 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 1: third party country they have no connections there. No, you 185 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 1: can't keep them detained here. That's like Auschwitz. The game 186 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: being played is that nothing short of amnesty is acceptable, exactly. 187 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 3: And the thing is that they won't say so, or 188 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 3: some of them will. Chuck Schumer actually a few years 189 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 3: ago literally admitted he wanted to just legalize everybody that 190 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 3: was in the country. But the fact is, if Democrats 191 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 3: really said what they wanted, they would not get elected 192 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,719 Speaker 3: in many many places. Maybe Chuck Schumer would continue to 193 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,680 Speaker 3: win in New York, but in most states it would 194 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 3: be a death sentence for their party. And that Americans 195 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 3: can't hear what they support, but also that they won't 196 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 3: listen to what Americans want them to do. 197 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: It's really unfair to the extent that they're struggling, and 198 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,960 Speaker 1: they are struggling quite a lot right now. It's because 199 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 1: Commo is a perfect example. Americans read all over them 200 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 1: what they actually wanted to do. But they just play 201 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 1: this game, and no one's buying the game anymore. 202 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 3: Right, There's also the question of if you came into 203 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 3: the country illegally, what are you entitled to? And Emma 204 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,079 Speaker 3: Joe Morris, who are another follow that I like a lot. 205 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,199 Speaker 3: She pointed out that when they were staying at various 206 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:32,440 Speaker 3: hotels across New York City, there were always these protests 207 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 3: every time the city would try to move them because 208 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:38,439 Speaker 3: the accommodations weren't going to be as nice. And she 209 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 3: said that she spoke to some of the people when 210 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 3: she was reporting on this for bright Bart at the time, 211 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 3: and she writes, there's this bizarre sense which would maybe 212 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 3: curb the illegal immigration problem in a somewhat significant way 213 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 3: if it stopped that if someone merely enters America, they're 214 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 3: entitled to a measure of luxury. No, you're not, You're 215 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 3: just not. So here we are and I don't know. 216 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 3: I again think the Democrats are making a big error here. 217 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 3: I hope Republicans can capitalize on it. It hasn't been 218 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 3: a strength of the Republican Party other than Donald Trump 219 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 3: to point to stuff like this and get on the 220 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 3: right side, the popular side of what Americans believe. I 221 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 3: hope Republicans run on this issue in the midterms. You know, 222 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 3: I really think this is a unifying thing that people want. 223 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 3: They want security for the country. 224 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,079 Speaker 2: Yep, it's not that complicated. 225 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 3: It really really isn't. All Right, we're going to take 226 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 3: a short break and we're going to be right back 227 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 3: with her Meat suing California and an eight to one 228 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 3: Scotis decision. 229 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: Alrighty our girl Harmeat. Dylan over at DOJ is conducting 230 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 1: the fo part of the equation for California. California has 231 00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 1: been openly flout the rules that transgender athletes boys should 232 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:07,959 Speaker 1: not be competing in women's sports. You'll remember Carol that 233 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 1: in his Moderate Sane person tour that Gavin Newsom tried 234 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 1: to do on his podcast, he said it was deeply 235 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 1: unfair for boys to be competing with girls, and everybody 236 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 1: knew that, but nonetheless, in California's Big Track championships, they 237 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,679 Speaker 1: had Aby Hernandez, a boy, winning three of the categories, 238 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 1: and they did all this like changing the categories to 239 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 1: try to try to allow the same number of girls 240 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 1: to win anyway, and had him sharing the podium with girls. 241 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 1: It's also ridiculous, and they have just said, no, we're 242 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 1: not going to follow your laws, and so harmite. Dylan 243 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 1: is like, okay. She sent a letter to California public 244 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 1: school districts and their state you know, board of whatever 245 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: their athletics is. She called it unconstitutional to allow transgender 246 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 1: athletes to compete. She alleged that knowingly depriving female students 247 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 1: of athletic opportunities and benefit on the basis of their 248 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: sex would constitute unconstitutional sex discrimination under the Equal Protection 249 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 1: clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. Dylan ordered the CIF which 250 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 1: is that organization, to inform the Justice Department by jun 251 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 1: night that it will no longer implement its bylaws on this. 252 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 1: Linda McMahon also said in a July seventh post on 253 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 1: ex that California had rejected the Trump administration demand. They've 254 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: been trying to negotiate this and California's just like, nah, 255 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 1: So now we're going to court, so there will be 256 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 1: a civil lawsuit. Newsom this is he's so slimy. 257 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 3: Carroll's in South Carolina at the right. 258 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: I know he's campaigning in South Carolina and on this subject, 259 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 1: which he's conceded it is unfair, but he's not going 260 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 1: to use any of his power as governor to fix 261 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 1: this issue or comply with the law. Newsom noted in 262 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 1: a statement that he is not named in the lawsuit. 263 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 2: And the California Department of Education and. 264 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 1: The CIF which is their athletic organization, are both independent 265 00:14:55,520 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 1: from his administration. What a slick hairsp blinding coward like, really, 266 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 1: he continued that both are quote, following existing state law. 267 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 2: Shut up and do the right thing. 268 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 3: Absolutely, And you know, there's also this whole thing that 269 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 3: the left just had these protests No King's Day, but which, 270 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 3: by the way, I tried to like joke with real 271 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 3: people in real life on July fourth and say like, 272 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 3: happy real No King Day. What I was talking about. 273 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 1: This is, by the way, one of the things about 274 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: the pace of a Trump administration is that something like 275 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 1: no King's Day will seem like a really big story 276 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 1: for about thirteen hours, and then by the time you 277 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 1: get to real No King's Day, everybody's forgotten that it 278 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 1: ever happened. 279 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I mean I would just say that the 280 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 3: people I spoke to didn't even know that the protests 281 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,240 Speaker 3: were called no King day. So that didn't go out great. 282 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 3: But no, you have where states are saying we're not 283 00:15:56,440 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 3: going to follow the law, and that's somehow not monarchy. 284 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 3: That's not a you know, anti democracy, but Trump Trump 285 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 3: is king. 286 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I love this idea too, where the blue cities 287 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: are like, oh, how dare he come in here and 288 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 1: enforce the law in LA? He should partner with us. 289 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 1: But what they're also announcing all the time, as loudly 290 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 1: and as hostily as possible is you, we would never 291 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: partner with you. 292 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:24,120 Speaker 2: You're disgusting. 293 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 1: We are absolutely not a partner in enforcing any of this, 294 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 1: and in fact, we would like you to know how 295 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 1: little we're going to be enforcing all the time. 296 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 2: It's like, yeah, no, you're not a partner, you've told us. Yeah, 297 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 2: bet you're not. 298 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 3: Yeah. And it's funny how they suddenly want, you know, rights, 299 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 3: states to have rights when there's a Republican president. It's 300 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 3: always amazing how that works. 301 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, look, my new converts to federalism. I 302 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 1: welcome you to read up on it. 303 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 3: To maintain that enthusiasm. A Democrat every wins. 304 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 1: Again, yes, exactly. In another blow to the to the 305 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: whole King narrative. It turns out that the executive branch 306 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 1: can in fact instruct agencies within the government to form 307 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 1: a plan to reduce the number of people who work 308 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,679 Speaker 1: for them. That's that's the crazy thing that Trump was 309 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 1: accused of doing, and the public employee unions took him 310 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 1: to court over it. The district court said, yeah, y'all 311 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: have to stop. You can't do a reduction in force. 312 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 1: That's crazy town. And the President was like, I'm pretty 313 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 1: I really feel like I can. So it went to 314 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court, and the Supreme Court eight to one, 315 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 1: with only Katanji Brown Jackson dissenting eight to one, said 316 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 1: get rid of the injunctions and the restraining orders. They 317 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,159 Speaker 1: can continue to work on this because this is in 318 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,679 Speaker 1: fact the job of the government, and it seems like 319 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 1: it's unlikely to be unconstitutional, right, I mean. 320 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 3: If the president can people, what can you do? What 321 00:17:57,800 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 3: else is there? 322 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:03,159 Speaker 1: No, it's it's wild. And then the idea that so 323 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: my or even Kagan will sometimes be, you know, with 324 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 1: the writer leaning judges, sodomy Or rarely is, but you're 325 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 1: right in her writing, h sodomy Or calls her out 326 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:22,119 Speaker 1: a little bit, says I agree with Justice Jackson that 327 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,879 Speaker 1: the President cannot restructure federal agencies in a manner inconsistent 328 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 1: with congressional man mandates. Here, however, the relevant executive order 329 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:35,159 Speaker 1: directs agencies to plan reorganizations and reductions in force quote consistent. 330 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 2: With applicable law. 331 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 1: She then notes to Katanji Brown Jackson a real basic 332 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 1: of how courts work, which is the plans themselves are 333 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 1: not before this court at this stage, and we thus 334 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 1: have no occasion to consider whether they can and will 335 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: be carried out consistent with the constraints of law, basically saying, ma'am, 336 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,680 Speaker 1: you're addressing a question that is not before the court, right, 337 00:18:58,400 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 1: that's it. 338 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:05,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's very like my cousin Vinnie being told how 339 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 3: the process works exactly. 340 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, I love that. 341 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:15,440 Speaker 1: No, this is the second Justice who, in writing has 342 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:20,120 Speaker 1: taken aim at Katanji Brown Jackson in a I would say, 343 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 1: like more harsh than you're used to seeing, or more 344 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,919 Speaker 1: specific than you're used to seeing. Way where it was 345 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:28,159 Speaker 1: the was the first one, and al so to my 346 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,439 Speaker 1: r agreeing with her but saying like, hey, we're not 347 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 1: deciding that. I don't know what you thought we were 348 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 1: arguing about, and then I saw some quotes from Katanji 349 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 1: Brown Jackson talking about how she writes her opinions and saying, 350 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 1: you know, it's just my chance to express my feelings 351 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 1: on matters. 352 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 2: And I'm like, do you misunderstand. 353 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 1: The word opinion in a jurisprudence situation because it ain't 354 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 1: just like your opinion. 355 00:19:56,080 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, it really is a little worrisome that she seems 356 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:05,159 Speaker 3: underqualified for this role. And I think a lot of 357 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,919 Speaker 3: people were pointing this out even before she was picked. 358 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 3: But it's not right that, you know, we're having this 359 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 3: conversation at all, that that perhaps a Supreme Court justice 360 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:22,200 Speaker 3: who was there did not really qualify to be there. 361 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,639 Speaker 3: And it's unfortunate that Sony Soda Mayor is left to 362 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,440 Speaker 3: give a mini SmackDown on the record. 363 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,200 Speaker 1: Well, and I would say, look, there can sometimes be 364 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,920 Speaker 1: great courage and standing up by yourself against the whole, 365 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: you know, on principle. However, if you find yourself on 366 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 1: the other side of eight to one pretty frequently at 367 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court, it's not like a resistance win, Like, 368 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 1: in all likelihood you got it wrong, that's what happened. 369 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:55,400 Speaker 2: But everybody's like. 370 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,959 Speaker 1: Cheering for her, like, oh, my gosh, she is just 371 00:20:59,080 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 1: killing it with these. 372 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 2: Sense yourmone here, she. 373 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 1: Is killing it with these descents. Now, I think, just quickly, 374 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 1: just a little Scotus game theory, which is that, so 375 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 1: if you have three liberal leaning justices and then you 376 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:19,160 Speaker 1: have the six Roberts, you could get to join the Libs, right, 377 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 1: so I could choose four and maybe in some you 378 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 1: could peel off a Kavanaugh or a Barrett or one 379 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 1: of the others occasionally, but that would require like staying 380 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:33,440 Speaker 1: sane among the three liberals so that you could bring 381 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 1: people over to that wing for occasional decisions. 382 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:37,919 Speaker 2: And it's not like that doesn't. 383 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 1: Happen at all, But it does seem to me that 384 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 1: KBJ is not exactly strategic with the way she's approaching this, 385 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 1: and she a'm winning any of those swing votes. 386 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:51,719 Speaker 3: That's right, that's a really good point. I don't know 387 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 3: that there's going to be a movement of which she's 388 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 3: the head of that. 389 00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:00,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, like Kagan could be the head of that. But 390 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:04,159 Speaker 1: if you're partnered with Katanji Brown Jackson really hard to 391 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 1: bring people over exactly. We're going to take a break 392 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 1: on normally, but we will be right. 393 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 2: Back with good news. From the TSA, Welcome. 394 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 3: Back to normally. This for our last segment is actually 395 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:24,120 Speaker 3: my favorite story right now. I had a real big 396 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 3: problem with the TSA. I think that, you know, a 397 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 3: lot of the security theater that we do is really pointless. 398 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 3: I've written about it a number of times over the years. 399 00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:37,639 Speaker 3: And this new move that is the TSA is no 400 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,640 Speaker 3: longer going to force us to take off our shoes 401 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 3: is so welcome. And I say that, Hello Lujah, who 402 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 3: has paid the money to have TSA pre check And 403 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 3: I don't take off my shoes anymore, But I don't 404 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:52,399 Speaker 3: think you need to be paying one hundred dollars a 405 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 3: year in order to have that privilege. And I'm really 406 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 3: glad that they're bringing back a little slice of sanity 407 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 3: into our airport. 408 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:01,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. 409 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,679 Speaker 1: So this has been what twenty three years We've been 410 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:07,680 Speaker 1: doing this because Richard Reid tried to bomb something with 411 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 1: a with a shoe bomb. 412 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 4: Right. 413 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 1: As with many parts of security theater, it's not really 414 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,920 Speaker 1: helping anyone, and it's making a bunch of people inconvenienced. 415 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: I saw a funny tweet where someone said congratulations to 416 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,640 Speaker 1: the guy who is probably on aggregate annoyed and inconvenienced 417 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,119 Speaker 1: more people than any man in history. 418 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 2: Richard Reid. 419 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 1: He actually he actually ended up succeeding and terrorizing us 420 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: for twenty three years by having to take our shoes off. 421 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. 422 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,680 Speaker 1: The lesson from this is that there are so many 423 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,920 Speaker 1: things the government could just stop doing right right. They 424 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 1: just did it on like a random day. They said 425 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 1: we're not doing that anymore. And by the way, I 426 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 1: was flying on that day and I got scolded by 427 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,439 Speaker 1: a TSA agents and told to put my shoes back on. 428 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 1: I do not pay for pre because I was stubbornly like, 429 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:56,720 Speaker 1: I don't need to pay extra money to be treated 430 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,919 Speaker 1: like a human being, which is dumb because it wastesle 431 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 1: of my time. 432 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 2: And you know, I take my shoes off. 433 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,119 Speaker 1: But I took my shoes off, and she's like, you 434 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,880 Speaker 1: put shoes back on, And I was like, I thought 435 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 1: I was just getting regular TSA gas lit. But it 436 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:16,640 Speaker 1: turns out nope, the policy had changed. Yeah. 437 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:17,919 Speaker 2: I thought she was messing with me. 438 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 1: And then later that day I saw the announcement, so 439 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,639 Speaker 1: that was exciting. I also would like to note that 440 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:30,120 Speaker 1: this is how the White House tweeted about it. Put 441 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 1: your dogs away, Trump and men ended the TSA shoes 442 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:39,639 Speaker 1: off policy, feet covered, air quality restored, and I said, 443 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:42,880 Speaker 1: I said, Carol, you know in two thousand and two, 444 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 1: if someone had told me that they would that the 445 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 1: US government and an official capacity would announce the recision 446 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: of this policy or the rescinding of this policy with 447 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:59,719 Speaker 1: basically your feet stank, I would have been like, highly skeptical, 448 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 1: but thankful that we had come to this place. 449 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know it. It really drives me crazy because 450 00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,960 Speaker 3: I don't like things that make no sense, and this 451 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 3: has just never made sense to me. And I hope 452 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:17,920 Speaker 3: they follow this up with more TSA sanity. I've written 453 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 3: about it again, Like I said, TSA many times. In 454 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 3: twenty nineteen, I pointed out that, for example, the shoe bomb, 455 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 3: the attempted shoebomber Richard Reid, he tried to use matches 456 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 3: to set his shoe on fire. Matches are allowed on planes, 457 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 3: lighters are not, which makes of course no sense. And 458 00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 3: then of course when you're carrying liquids, they're very worried 459 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,120 Speaker 3: that the liquids might be a bomb. So they take 460 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 3: those liquids and they toss it into a garbage. 461 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 2: Right right next to everybody, right next to. 462 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 3: Where everybody is walking in and if that exploded, it 463 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:52,919 Speaker 3: would do just as much damage as I would on 464 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 3: an airplane. None of it makes sense. It is insane 465 00:25:58,240 --> 00:25:59,199 Speaker 3: that we keep doing it. 466 00:25:59,320 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 2: You know. 467 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 3: One of the things that the reason that nine to 468 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 3: eleven was successful was the element of surprise. If we 469 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:11,879 Speaker 3: could stay on guard despite dropping these you know, shoe 470 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 3: restrictions and other restrictions, that would be the ideal that 471 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 3: we shouldn't live in a nine to eleven world forever, 472 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:22,399 Speaker 3: but we also shouldn't forget that we should stay alert, 473 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 3: and that's really the main thing. 474 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,920 Speaker 1: Well, and like Israel's good at doing this obviously because 475 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: they are under frequent threat, but they do things that 476 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 1: are sort of like actually studied and effective, as opposed 477 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 1: to whenever they study TSA methods they come up with like, 478 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:41,480 Speaker 1: oh yeah, they let all of our test subjects through, right, 479 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 1: So it's not whatever they're doing is not working for 480 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 1: staying alert. 481 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 2: The new one that I. 482 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 1: Hate is the one where they take the picture of 483 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,160 Speaker 1: you and you don't have to do that. 484 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 2: No, no, here's I know. 485 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:55,640 Speaker 1: But here's what's so insane about it, Yeah, is that 486 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 1: they're taking a picture of you and then they're saying 487 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,919 Speaker 1: they're going to dispose of that picture, right, and then 488 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 1: they look at the picture of you, and they look 489 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 1: at your license, and I'm just like, you know, what 490 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 1: could accomplish this? Looking at me? I'm right here, I'm standing, 491 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 1: i am standing two feet from you. 492 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 2: Just take my license, look at me, hand the license back. 493 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 3: Nate. Nate Bragatzi had this line where, you know, he 494 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:24,680 Speaker 3: always liked that they included the picture on the license.
