Because I've said some unkind things 12 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 3: about Matt Gates. For instance, Yes you have it.

I mean, 23 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 3: why why pick a guy who has no friends, which 24 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 3: means in politics you have less power, and then you 25 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 3: know all the media against him. 26 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:31,320 Speaker 4: I just don't. 27 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 3: I don't see the point. But I mean when he 28 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 3: says things like I saw a clip the other day. 29 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,960 Speaker 3: Now I laughed at this, but he said about some 30 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 3: abortion pro abortion rally talked about how well I have 31 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 3: to worry about abortions because they're all too fat and 32 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 3: ugly to have sex or something like that.

And 39 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 1: I could be wrong. I have turned out to be 40 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 1: wrong on a number of occasions. That number is two 41 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: my entire life. No, I could be wrong. But when 42 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 1: somebody tells me exactly I want what I want to hear, 43 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: my immediate reaction is, what's going on here? Is this legit? 44 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: A lot of people in politics, especially in these fever days, 45 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 1: when somebody tells them exactly what they want to hear, 46 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 1: they think that's a great person, and I'm with them, 47 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,519 Speaker 1: you know, Like Carrie Lake could be a perfect example. 48 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 1: I think she's phony as a three dollar bill, but 49 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 1: she's great at spouting the rhetoric of what people like 50 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: me want to hear. Other people hear her and think 51 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: she's great. I want her to win the people of Arizona, 52 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 1: which is a fairly red stater, or used to be. 53 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: Anyway I've spoken, but I put Matt Gates in that 54 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 1: con man category. Perhaps you disagree, and again, if I 55 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 1: turn out to be wrong, I will get on the 56 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: air in front of the assembled millions and say, you 57 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: know what, I was wrong on that one.

Scott Jennings great on CNN, very reasonable, 175 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: smart conservative, Mark Halperin, who's independent reporting in sober analysis, 176 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 1: much of which you heard mentioned here on The Armstrong 177 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: and Getty Show is vastly superior and more informative than 178 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 1: the mainstream media. Is hackish, hyperventilating, another example of new 179 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 1: media just whooping the old and then some other obscure 180 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 1: stuh the p Israel winner. 181 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 3: The pant suit thing is actually interesting and I learned 182 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 3: this from listening to Sarah Izger in the Dispatch. I 183 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 3: hadn't known about level one, level two, level three feminism, 184 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 3: but like level two feminism or whatever, maybe one was 185 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 3: the pant suit. It's like, see, we can be just 186 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 3: like men. We've got our version of suits, and here 187 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 3: we are in the workplace. And then like the next 188 00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 3: level of feminism, No, I can dress like kind of hot, 189 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 3: like a woman likes to sometimes in a skirt and 190 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 3: high heels, and also be effective. And I think that 191 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 3: would be helpful to get away from that old level 192 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 3: of pant suit thingy. 193 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 4: I think there is sort of a subliminal thing going 194 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 4: on there. 195 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, we're gonna free you by demanding you adhere to 196 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: our stereotypes and our orders. You will work outside the home, 197 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 1: you will turn your nose up at raising children and 198 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 1: being the leader of the family. You will make money 199 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,559 Speaker 1: for a corporation, and you will wear pants in the 200 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: name of freedom, right right? Yeah. Level threes where whatever 201 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 1: you want, do whatever you want. And I tell you 202 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:44,680 Speaker 1: what that's And I don't know if there's a name 203 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 1: for guys like I'll just speak for myself who are 204 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: like women can do whatever they want and achieve whatever 205 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:54,719 Speaker 1: they want. And who the hell am I to tell 206 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 1: them that it's more satisfying to make another half of 207 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: a percent for your corporation as opposed to raising children 208 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 1: and being the actual functional chief operating officer as a family. 209 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: You do what you want. I trust you to make 210 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: the decision. I don't believe in browbeating people to conform 211 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 1: to some sort of you know, prefab image of what 212 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: they ought to be. I find it disgusting no matter 213 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 1: what you know, label it puts on itself. Oh running late, 214 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:22,680 Speaker 1: I tell you what why don't we get to the losers. 215 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 1: I'm auditioning. I heard they got some openings on some 216 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: of the daytime TV shows. Really, and I'm thinking, if 217 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: if maybe like get myself a little chin lift and 218 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 1: cheek tuck and eye lift and ear adjustment, dock my ears, 219 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 1: maybe I could I could be a big time TV guy. 220 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 1: I don't know with the delivery? Is that the key 221 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: is the delivery? That's right coming up? We look at 222 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 1: the losers. 223 00:11:52,800 --> 00:12:03,559 Speaker 6: Okay, that's on the way. 224 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 3: So that's a big crowd in Amsterdam, Amsterdam shouting shame 225 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:10,839 Speaker 3: on you. 226 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 1: When did that happen? 227 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:17,840 Speaker 3: That's around the attacking of the Jews attending the soccer 228 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 3: match from a week or so ago. 229 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: Do you know who they're chanting at? 230 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 3: I don't. I assume it's the people who attacked the 231 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 3: Jewish people. But so tonight the Israeli soccer team is 232 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 3: playing France in Paris. I didn't know this. France has 233 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 3: the largest population in Europe of Jews and Muslims. Did 234 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 3: not know that, and they have four thousand police. They're 235 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 3: going to try to make sure nothing bad happens, even 236 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:53,439 Speaker 3: though social media makes it look like the Muslim crowd 237 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:54,319 Speaker 3: is looking. 238 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 1: For a fight. 239 00:12:56,240 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 3: Eighty thousand seat stadium. They've sold eleven thousand tickets, so 240 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 3: not very many people are interested in being there. 241 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:03,679 Speaker 1: Wow. 242 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 4: So interesting to see how this plays up. 243 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe tomorrow we can get to some more of 244 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 1: Andy McCarthy's absolutely brilliant peace about how this is absolutely 245 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: a sign of something much, much bigger. It's not about soccer, 246 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: and it's not even about Gaza or what have you. 247 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: But we'll get to that. We're going over the winners 248 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 1: and losers from the recent election. Loser number one, Come on, 249 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: Joe Biden. The experts told us sleepy Joe would be 250 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 1: the most consequential president since FDR when he dropped out 251 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: in July. Those same experts compared Biden to George Washington, 252 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,679 Speaker 1: praising his selfless act as political courage. He will not 253 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:46,200 Speaker 1: be remembered that way now. In reality, Biden's decision to 254 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 1: run for reelection rights Andrew Styles will be remembered as 255 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 1: one of the most reckless acts of political hubris and 256 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: American history. His selection of Kamala Harris as a running 257 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 1: mate in twenty twenty his decision to immediately endorse her 258 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 1: also regarded as monumental blunders. This is the legacy Biden deserves. 259 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,680 Speaker 3: They met Trump and Biden met for two hours yesterday. 260 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 3: I find that pretty interesting alone. What were they talking about? 261 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 3: Trump says they talked a lot about Ukraine and talked 262 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 3: a lot about Israel. But two hours, that's a pretty 263 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:18,079 Speaker 3: serious conversation. 264 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, absolutely, I have no doubt. I'm glad 265 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 1: to hear it, Honestly. Another loser, of course, Tim Walls, 266 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: oh right, the camo hat guy who around pranced around 267 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 1: on stage and lied constantly about China and other weird things. 268 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 1: He was supposed to help the Hair's campaign appeal to men. 269 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 1: He pretended to go pheasant hunting, cackled with the ladies 270 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 1: of the U, and played video games with AOC. He 271 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 1: said Republicans were weird. Trump won mail voters by thirteen. 272 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 3: Points, right, And obviously, if you're going to pick somebody 273 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 3: out of the whole crowd, that was weird. 274 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 1: He was almost certainly the weirdest. And I'm a knucklehead 275 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 1: at times. Another losers, other losers, the Obamas, and you know, 276 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 1: he talks about various things. But they tried to shame 277 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 1: black men and voting for Kamala, scolding the brothers for 278 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 1: hating women. Oh go away, please go away. Other losers 279 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 1: Alex Soros, who's the son of billionaire George Soros who 280 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 1: funneled hundreds of millions of dollars into the Democrats in 281 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:23,239 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, hanging out with him at elite conferences, 282 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 1: inviting them to his swanky Manhattan pad, etc. And some 283 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: other people you've never heard of. The mainstream media journalists 284 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 1: are the worst. They scolded the American people for feeling 285 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: stressed about the economy and thinking, but Biden was too 286 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 1: old to run for reelection. They still don't understand why 287 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 1: no one trusts them or takes them seriously. They try 288 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 1: to put their thumbs on the scale for Harris, but 289 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 1: it made no difference due to their rapidly diminishing credibility 290 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: and relevance. They will learn nothing and carry on into 291 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: the void. Speaking of spending. 292 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 3: Money, did you see that Kamala Harris's campaign gave Al 293 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 3: Sharpton a half a million dollars five hundred thousand dollars 294 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 3: they gave to Kamala before he did the glowing interview 295 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 3: with her. Wow, what kind of shakedown is that? And 296 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 3: I can't believe that they play that game with Al 297 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 3: freaking Sharpton. You gave him a half a million dollars 298 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 3: so he'd do a softball interview with you. 299 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, more losers, the Lincoln Project go away, shameless grifters, criminals, 300 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 1: terrorists in Iran. Not even Ben Rhodes can save you. Now, losers. 301 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 3: That Al Sharpton thing pisses me off because that interview 302 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 3: got a fair amount of play in mainstream media because 303 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 3: she was addressing, you know, the black community and all 304 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 3: that sort of stuff. 305 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 6: He did. 306 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 4: Wouldn't do the interview unless he got a half a 307 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 4: million dollars. Oh my god. 308 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 1: Can we have some sort of giant statement from you know, 309 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 1: the black folks in America, fabulous loyal Americans who disavow 310 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: the very concept of Al Sharpton being a spokesperson for anybody. 311 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 3: We have a US Senator who is a friend of 312 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:07,920 Speaker 3: the Armstrong and Getty show laying out the personality of 313 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 3: our perhaps next Attorney General, Matt Gates. 314 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 4: If you haven't heard this, it's somewhat chuckin. 315 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:16,879 Speaker 1: Armstrong and Getty. 316 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 2: I will tonight discuss Matt Gate. Some of you will 317 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,400 Speaker 2: think I'm too hard on him. Some of you who 318 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 2: think I'm much too easy on him. And this is 319 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 2: in the context of what is one of the most 320 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 2: jaw dropping days in the last ten years of Trump. 321 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 4: And that is a heck of a statement from Mark Halper. 322 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 3: And it's hard to have jaw dropping days that stand 323 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:41,199 Speaker 3: out with Trump, but yesterday was one.

There's a reason why no one and 344 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 7: the conference came definite him because we had all seen 345 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,679 Speaker 7: the videos he was showing on the house floor that 346 00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:45,679 Speaker 7: all of us had walked away, of the girls that 347 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,879 Speaker 7: he had slept with. He'd brag about how he would 348 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 7: crush ed medicine and chase it with with an energy 349 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:55,439 Speaker 7: drink so he could go all night. This is obviously 350 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 7: before you got married. And so when that accusation came out, 351 00:18:58,320 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 7: no one definit him, and then no one on the 352 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 7: media would give him a time of the day. All 353 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 7: of a sudden he found fame because he opposed the 354 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 7: speaker of the house back in November, and he's always 355 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 7: stayed there and he was never going to leave until 356 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 7: he got this last moment of fame by saying by 357 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 7: going after a motion to vacate. 358 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:20,920 Speaker 3: Sleeping around as a congressman probably not a wise idea period, 359 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:24,879 Speaker 3: But the kind of forty year old dude who shows 360 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 3: other people at work videos of the girls he's sleeping with, Yeah, 361 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 3: not my kind of guy. Wow week and then, So 362 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,159 Speaker 3: whether or not he was ever with a seventeen year 363 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 3: old or transported a girl across st state lines where 364 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 3: seventeen years old was an acceptable age, I don't know. 365 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:45,160 Speaker 1: We might learn more about that tomorrow. 366 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 3: So coincidentally, with Trump announcing his name for Attorney General yesterday, 367 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:53,639 Speaker 3: than Matt Gates immediately resigning from. 368 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 4: The House, which is not what usually happens. 369 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 3: Usually you hang around in your gig until you get 370 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 3: to the confirmation time. But he immediately resigned, which means 371 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 3: the House Ethics Committee has no reason to put out 372 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,719 Speaker 3: their report that it turns out, was due to come 373 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 3: out tomorrow about their investigation into Matt Gates's personal life. 374 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, the Ethics Committee doesn't put out reports on former 375 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: congress people. 376 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 4: Now then why would they. 377 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 3: We have a strong feeling that it will leak since 378 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,440 Speaker 3: Republicans and Democrats hate the guy, and there'll probably be 379 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:26,200 Speaker 3: a lot of people who could easily get a copy 380 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 3: of that to whatever news source. I am kind of interested, though, 381 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,360 Speaker 3: a number of people that have said really harsh things 382 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 3: about Matt Gates over the years. When Trump named him 383 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 3: for AG, you know, soft feddled at a little Lindsey 384 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,439 Speaker 3: Graham being one of them, Marco Rubio being another one 385 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 3: of them, and maybe Mark Wayne Mullen. I haven't heard this. 386 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:45,879 Speaker 3: He was on CNN yesterday with Jake Tapper. 387 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 1: Are you going to vote for mac Gains? 388 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 7: You know Matt Gates, And either's no question that we've 389 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 7: had our differences. They've been very public about it. I 390 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 7: completely trust President Trump's decision making on this one. But 391 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:00,639 Speaker 7: at the same time, he's got a to Congress and 392 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 7: sell themself. There's a lot of or to the Senate 393 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 7: and sell themself. There's a lot of questions that are 394 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,160 Speaker 7: going to be out there. He's got to answer those 395 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 7: questions and hopefully he's able to answer the questions right 396 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 7: and if he can, then we'll we'll go through the 397 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 7: confirmation process. 398 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,359 Speaker 1: That's good. That's some good strategy there from Mark Quinn. 399 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 1: I think that's perfectly reasonable. 400 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,120 Speaker 3: I suppose if you if you hate Trump, you would say, 401 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 3: look at the Republicans scared to oppose their their God 402 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,640 Speaker 3: or whatever. But I think that's perfectly reasonable. Like as 403 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 3: written in the Constitution, the president gets to choose his cabinet, 404 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,439 Speaker 3: and the role of the Senate is then to have 405 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,359 Speaker 3: them come before them ask them questions. And then you know, 406 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 3: approve or not. And so that's that's not unreasonable to 407 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 3: say what he said at all. 408 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 1: And if Senator Mullen is part of the committee that's 409 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: actually going to and the Senate is the entire committee 410 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 1: that is going to consider the nomination, I think it 411 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:55,159 Speaker 1: would be untoward. It would be improper for him to 412 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 1: announce a prejudgment honestly, right now that he is the nominee. 413 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 1: It's like some of the things Thatmocrats did to smear 414 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:04,359 Speaker 1: the name of Brett Kavanaugh. That's that's terrible, it's awful, 415 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 1: it's unacceptable. So, yeah, Mark Wayne said exactly the right thing. Hey, 416 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 1: he was nominated, we'll give him a fair hearing. Do 417 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 1: you any I think that's that's a flip flopping at 418 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:14,879 Speaker 1: all or being a hypocrite, Not in the least. 419 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 3: No, I don't either, And I am, as I've stated 420 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:19,440 Speaker 3: many times throughout the show, not a Matt Gate fan. 421 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 3: I wish Trump hadn't made that choice. I hope he 422 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,439 Speaker 3: doesn't get confirmed. But that's just my position. 423 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 1: I have a feeling that once we get into the 424 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 1: hearing room and the questions and answers start flying, Mark 425 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:34,199 Speaker 1: Wayne is going to squat the Gates nomination aside, like 426 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:38,119 Speaker 1: he's tried to touch one of Mark Wayne's children inappropriately. 427 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 1: The brawny mister Mullen. 428 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 4: Would he say something like, uh, it's not a legal question. 429 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 3: But would he say something like, do you remember when 430 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 3: you used to show me videos of all the girls 431 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 3: you were having sex with back when on the house. 432 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 4: Floor, back when we were both house members? You remember that? 433 00:22:57,840 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 1: That would be an odd question. 434 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 4: Would that be out of bounds? 435 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 6: Do you think? 436 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 1: No? I don't think it would be. 437 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 3: It's if I don't think that kind of guy should 438 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 3: be Attorney general. 439 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 1: It's appropriateness is murky. But you would have to de 440 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:15,159 Speaker 1: murk it as you as you asked it. You'd have 441 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 1: to say, look, if there's all sorts of impropriety flying around, 442 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 1: obviously your tenure would be blah blah blah blah. And 443 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:24,159 Speaker 1: so I'm asking you this to establish whether you'd want 444 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 1: to frame it. 445 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,399 Speaker 3: Does it have to be a legal judgment or is 446 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,719 Speaker 3: it like impeachment where it can just be Yeah, I 447 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 3: think this is an impeachable event. 448 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:32,439 Speaker 4: I mean, do you have to go up there? 449 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 3: You have to go after something that that Matt Gates, 450 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 3: that that is illegal or can you flat out stay 451 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:39,160 Speaker 3: I just don't like that kind of guy. 452 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 4: I don't want that kind of guy to be attorney general. 453 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:41,719 Speaker 1: Oh. 454 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 3: The second absolutely is it's advice. And is that a 455 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 3: legal hearing at all? 456 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a is this so bad for the country, 457 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 1: we're going to veto the president's pick? 458 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, here's the question, because there is that whole The 459 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 3: president is selected by the people. It's the biggest number 460 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 3: of people making the loudest noise. He's about what they want, 461 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 3: and he gets to pick who he wants to help 462 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 3: him with that job. 463 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 1: Is a you know, an argument, and some people might 464 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:12,959 Speaker 1: resent that, but A we got a constitution. B. Perhaps 465 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:16,680 Speaker 1: you've heard the phrase checks and balances. This is that 466 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 1: at work. 467 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 5: You know. 468 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 4: My favorite thing that I've learned in the last couple 469 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 4: of years. 470 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 3: And because I hear it thrown around a lot, I 471 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 3: think it's worth pointing out. 472 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 1: We do not have coequal branches of government. 473 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:29,360 Speaker 3: I grew up my whole life thinking that was true 474 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 3: because I'd heard it over and over and over again. 475 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 3: The reason you hear it over and over again originally 476 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 3: Woodrow Wilson throw that out to try to make some 477 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:38,200 Speaker 3: argument why the president got to do. 478 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: X Y or z. 479 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 3: And then Richard Nixon really leaned on in in the 480 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 3: seventies for why he could do X Y or Z 481 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 3: around the whole Watergate thing. Look, we're a coequal branch. 482 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 3: That's actually not the way it's set up. The Congress 483 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 3: is more powerful than the other two, the best example 484 00:24:55,119 --> 00:25:00,080 Speaker 3: being Congress can remove anybody in the government, from the 485 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 3: President to a Supreme Court justice, to other members of 486 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 3: their body the Supreme Court, and the executive branch has 487 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 3: no ability whatsoever to get rid of the lowliest two 488 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 3: year elected congressperson in America. 489 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 4: That's all you need to. 490 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 1: Know, right right, and certainly more evidence of that as 491 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:21,199 Speaker 1: the Constitution opens with we the people of the United States, 492 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: we got to have a country worth a damn Okay, 493 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: now let's get down to business. Article one, the legislative 494 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 1: related branch. Let's talk about the legislative branch. And they 495 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:30,879 Speaker 1: lay out to the House and the Senate and the 496 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 1: rest of it at length before they even get around 497 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 1: to uh and and and when I say at length, 498 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 1: I mean at length before they get to the executive branch. 499 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,199 Speaker 3: But isn't that something that all the way up to 500 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 3: the president of the United States, the entire executive branch 501 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 3: or the entire judicial branch. The Supreme Court cannot remove 502 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:53,399 Speaker 3: some lowly congressperson from middle of Montana who represents harvary 503 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 3: thousand people. 504 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:56,399 Speaker 1: They just have no power to do that. 505 00:25:56,480 --> 00:26:00,199 Speaker 3: Whereas the House can decide that this president's got to go, 506 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 3: the chief Justice of the Supreme Court has got to go. 507 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:08,199 Speaker 1: That is not co equal. Yeah, the uh, I'm just 508 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 1: I've got my pocket copy of the Constitution here and 509 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 1: the Bill of Rights and all the amendments, and it's 510 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: like five one, two three, and that's our five. We 511 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:20,479 Speaker 1: call this counting on the radio. It's one of our 512 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 1: most beloved seconds. Yeah, it's there's five pages about Congress 513 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: and two pages about the executive branch. 514 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,720 Speaker 3: And that's one of the reasons we're in such a mess, 515 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:33,399 Speaker 3: is that the most powerful branch of our three branches 516 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,439 Speaker 3: no longer does its job lots of the time. 517 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 1: Oh no, And I would suggest that it is a weak, 518 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 1: little punk compared to the executive branch, which is an 519 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:47,360 Speaker 1: unfortunate inversion slash per version of the founder's wishes. 520 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,639 Speaker 3: Marshally, because we're so into the whole personalities thing. So 521 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 3: you let the person, the big personality that is the president, 522 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 3: do all kinds of stuff that they have no business doing. 523 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 3: The House of the Senate should say, well, you can't 524 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 3: do that. We do that, and we'll decide if that's 525 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 3: a good idea or not. But what do you think 526 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,399 Speaker 3: you're doing? Which is the way it used to be. 527 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 3: Like the Senate and House used to have like real 528 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 3: institutional like they protect themselves. They you know, they believed 529 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,120 Speaker 3: in themselves. They had a lot of self respect. That's 530 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,680 Speaker 3: what I'm looking for. And they lost that somewhere along 531 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 3: the line, right right well, as historians remind us. James 532 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 3: Madison in a conversation with Ben Franklin. Ben Franklin said, Hey, 533 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:32,719 Speaker 3: people really like having kings. This constitution you're working on, 534 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 3: you think you can stave that off. Madison replied, listen, 535 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 3: I've done five hundred computer simulations. I think I can 536 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:43,200 Speaker 3: buy you two hundred and fifty years. And Franklin said, 537 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:45,880 Speaker 3: you know, good enough, good enough. 538 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 1: But people want a king, you want a single figure 539 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 1: of power. 540 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,880 Speaker 3: One of my favorite stories to do this is from 541 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 3: one of the Carol books about Lyndon Johnson Rayburn. Sam Rayburn, 542 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 3: who was the Speaker of the House for like thirty 543 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 3: years or something like that, back when the Democrats always 544 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 3: controlled the House of Representatives and went back when Congress 545 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 3: you know. 546 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 1: Asserted their power. 547 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 3: There is some argument I don't remember what it was 548 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 3: with Kennedy and Bobby Kennedy, John Kennedy's brother went to 549 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 3: Sam Rayburn and was complaining about this or saying like that, 550 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 3: or you need to do this, and Sam Rayburn says, 551 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 3: you tell the president that if he wants anything done, 552 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 3: he better come talk to the Speaker of the House 553 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 3: of Representatives and shut the door on him, because that's 554 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 3: the way you get to talk to the president. When 555 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 3: you're the Speaker of the House. I am more powerful 556 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:34,919 Speaker 3: than you. You need something, you better come ask me. 557 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 3: But that's not the way Congress looks at it anymore. 558 00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, which is not good. 559 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 3: They should be writing immigration law and deciding whether or 560 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 3: not college students get their student loans taken away or whatever, 561 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 3: not the president. 562 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 1: Right, it's very frustrated and certainly not creating agencies than 563 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 1: telling the president, you know, have them write whatever laws 564 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 1: they want and penalties and the hell even have them 565 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 1: have their own courts and we just we won't say 566 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 1: anything or do anything, because if you do something, you 567 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 1: might do the wrong thing and then we wouldn't get reelected. So, 568 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 1: if you'll excuse me, I got to go raise some money. 569 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 3: Oh by the way, one quick thing, and one of 570 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 3: the reasons that speakers of the House have been scared 571 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 3: of the president was the new rule that just one 572 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 3: person could call for a vote and have you, you know, 573 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 3: boosted out. So if you could get one House member 574 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 3: loyal to the president Matt Gates, to want to boost 575 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 3: out the Speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy, the president 576 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 3: could do that. Yesterday, they at least have made the 577 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 3: first motions towards changing that from. 578 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 1: One to nine. 579 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 3: You would need nine House members to get together and 580 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 3: want to oust the speaker before you could do it. 581 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 1: Now you're talking, which seems like a more workable number. 582 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 1: You can't have the tip of the tail wagging the dog. 583 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 1: That's ridiculous. 584 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 3: We will finish strong next. RFK Junior reveals what Trump's 585 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 3: diet is like, having flown on the plane with him 586 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 3: throughout the campaign, I will reveal that from my final thought, 587 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 3: Oh my, so I don't know what it is with 588 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 3: the media, from you know, the mainstream kind of silly 589 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 3: media to the very very serious media. But they just 590 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 3: had another big hearing about UFOs or you a VS 591 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 3: or what are we supposed to call him now? UAPs 592 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 3: Unidentified anomalous phenomena. 593 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 1: It's what are we politically correct? Here? You go from 594 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 1: you know, handicapped to handy capable to whatever. 595 00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 3: I just can't but UFOs is stuff flying around, So 596 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 3: this could this also be like if you got a 597 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 3: poltergeist in your ceiling. 598 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 1: For instance. But I am paragraphs into this Wall Street 599 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 1: journal piece about the hearing the other day, and you 600 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 1: had a bunch of Pentagon officials, former Pentagon officials saying, yeah, 601 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 1: there's all sorts of stuff out there that the government 602 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: is covering up. But and every news story does this, 603 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: I think to keep you tuned in or because it's 604 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 1: kind of fun. They never get to a look, are 605 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 1: we talking about freaking space aliens? Are we talking about 606 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 1: probably military terrestrial military craft? But they never get into 607 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 1: that until like, way way deep into the articles. So 608 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 1: it's more fun to talk about I. 609 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 3: Guess is that because either in the committee or if 610 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 3: you're the journalist, the article or the committee hearing would 611 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 3: be over. 612 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 4: In like two minutes if you did that, So you 613 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:37,480 Speaker 4: leave that to the end. 614 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 1: Is that why? I don't know. I would think there's 615 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 1: plenty of interest in Hey, we got some stuff on 616 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 1: the radar. Our pilots have seen it. We can't identify it. 617 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:47,480 Speaker 1: Let's get to the bottom of it. You need not 618 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 1: bring into that, Oh, do aliens exist? To alien autopsies? 619 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 3: Little agreement? 620 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 1: Why is that even part of this discussion. I don't know. 621 00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 3: You can't make a logical argument for why there would 622 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 3: be intelligent life at the level somewhere in the universe 623 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 3: that it can travel through solar systems because nobody believes 624 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,360 Speaker 3: it's in our solar system all the way here and 625 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 3: then hang around for some reason and. 626 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 1: Wouldn't and would bother to maintain secrets? 627 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 4: Right, yeah, exactly. I mean, it just doesn't make any 628 00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 4: logical sense. 629 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 1: Well, I mean I could cook up a scenario, but 630 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 1: please Anyway, the Department has previously said there's no evidence 631 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 1: that UFO sightings are alien spacecraft. Okay, good, all right, great, 632 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 1: But whether they are, what are they? That's the question? 633 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 8: What are they? 634 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 1: Here's your host final thoughts, Joe Getty, and I'm afraid 635 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 1: we don't have time for the utterly stupid grand standing 636 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 1: by some of the people on the committee, but trust me, 637 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: it was stupid. Let's get a final thought from everybody 638 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 1: on the crew, starting with our technical director Michael Angelo. 639 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 1: Michael final thought, Yeah, you can watch the Matts Gates 640 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 1: send It confirmation hearing on c SPAN between ten pm 641 00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 1: and six am during the Safe Harbor hours. Beautiful. Yeah, well, 642 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 1: said Katie Greener, esteemed Newswoman. As a final thought, Katie, 643 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 1: speaking of UFOs, I saw mem years ago. It was 644 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 1: a picture of an alien looking down at Earth and 645 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 1: they were going f that. Yeah, no, getting we're out. 646 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 1: It's like you start to check into a hotel and 647 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 1: you see rats running around and all You're like, I 648 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,800 Speaker 1: don't want to stay here. Jack final thought RFK Junior. 649 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 3: Is he going to be the Secretary of HHS or 650 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 3: surgeon General? 651 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. 652 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 3: But he flew around with Trump on Trump's playing during 653 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:57,479 Speaker 3: the campaign, which is like a grueling, grueling job that 654 00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 3: most thirty five year olds couldn't do, but nearly eighty 655 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:05,280 Speaker 3: Trump did it. And RFK Junior said, it's true. I 656 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,840 Speaker 3: watched him eat every day. He eats mostly KFC and 657 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 3: Big Max.
