WEBVTT - Hulk Holgan's Legacy - July 25th, Hour 3

0:00:00.360 --> 0:00:05.040
<v Speaker 1>Coming up next, our final News Roundup and Information Overload Hour.

0:00:05.160 --> 0:00:07.960
<v Speaker 2>All Right, News round Up, Information Overload Hour. Toll free

0:00:08.080 --> 0:00:10.480
<v Speaker 2>odd number is eight hundred and nine four one sean

0:00:10.480 --> 0:00:11.879
<v Speaker 2>if you want to be part of the program.

0:00:12.119 --> 0:00:12.440
<v Speaker 3>Well.

0:00:12.480 --> 0:00:18.120
<v Speaker 2>In keeping with spreading false lies and peddling conspiracy theories,

0:00:19.040 --> 0:00:23.479
<v Speaker 2>the left seems fixated on this notion, this idea that

0:00:23.760 --> 0:00:28.000
<v Speaker 2>the only reason Stephen Colbert got fired is because of

0:00:28.080 --> 0:00:33.200
<v Speaker 2>Donald Trump. No, he got fired because his show sucks.

0:00:33.479 --> 0:00:38.040
<v Speaker 2>He's not funny. The audience attrition levels have been massive.

0:00:38.080 --> 0:00:43.440
<v Speaker 2>He is very, very low viewership. And the worst part

0:00:43.520 --> 0:00:47.040
<v Speaker 2>is he's losing forty to fifty million dollars a year. Now,

0:00:47.080 --> 0:00:50.480
<v Speaker 2>you don't survive in television. I will have completed thirty

0:00:50.560 --> 0:00:54.280
<v Speaker 2>years on the Fox News Channel as of October, assuming

0:00:54.320 --> 0:00:57.280
<v Speaker 2>I live that long, and I can tell you that

0:00:57.280 --> 0:01:00.319
<v Speaker 2>that's the formula, the way it's always been, the way

0:01:00.360 --> 0:01:05.959
<v Speaker 2>it always will be. He failed. Jimmy Kimmel similarly is failing.

0:01:06.040 --> 0:01:09.200
<v Speaker 2>He's on official cancelation watch. And that would go the

0:01:09.240 --> 0:01:11.959
<v Speaker 2>same for Jimmy Fallon, and that would go the same

0:01:11.959 --> 0:01:15.200
<v Speaker 2>for those that hard hitting news show. The view their

0:01:15.280 --> 0:01:17.280
<v Speaker 2>ratings are in the toilet. And I'm sure they're probably

0:01:17.360 --> 0:01:21.319
<v Speaker 2>losing money too. So that's what happens in television, like

0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:24.920
<v Speaker 2>it or not. Now, the question with Colbert is he

0:01:25.080 --> 0:01:28.800
<v Speaker 2>says that they came to a mutual agreement that his

0:01:28.920 --> 0:01:31.400
<v Speaker 2>last show will be in May of twenty six.

0:01:31.480 --> 0:01:32.280
<v Speaker 3>That's next year.

0:01:32.880 --> 0:01:35.440
<v Speaker 2>But if he keeps going out there night after night

0:01:35.480 --> 0:01:40.119
<v Speaker 2>after night, trashing the company that gives him a paycheck,

0:01:40.480 --> 0:01:43.319
<v Speaker 2>that's going to lose forty to fifty million dollars this year,

0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:46.839
<v Speaker 2>they may just cancel it sooner. I wouldn't be shocked

0:01:46.880 --> 0:01:49.640
<v Speaker 2>if it happen by next week. Listen to what you're

0:01:49.680 --> 0:01:50.960
<v Speaker 2>saying about his new bosses.

0:01:51.400 --> 0:01:54.880
<v Speaker 4>Wow, hold on, Plus, they're paying his legal fees. Sixteen

0:01:55.000 --> 0:01:58.760
<v Speaker 4>was twenty thirty. That means by bending the knee they

0:01:58.840 --> 0:02:01.280
<v Speaker 4>lost like forty mon million dollars this year.

0:02:02.640 --> 0:02:07.680
<v Speaker 3>They better watch out. They better watch out. They might

0:02:07.680 --> 0:02:08.800
<v Speaker 3>get canceled.

0:02:10.200 --> 0:02:17.680
<v Speaker 4>For purely financial reasons, purely the present owners, the president

0:02:17.760 --> 0:02:20.280
<v Speaker 4>owners are denying that additional twenty million.

0:02:20.000 --> 0:02:22.600
<v Speaker 3>Dollars, which I hope is true because could you.

0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:26.760
<v Speaker 4>Imagine how angry people would be? Last year, Paramount laid

0:02:26.760 --> 0:02:30.920
<v Speaker 4>off two thousand employees, then cut another several hundred just

0:02:31.000 --> 0:02:33.960
<v Speaker 4>last month, firing that many people, and then handing over

0:02:34.240 --> 0:02:36.919
<v Speaker 4>thirty six mil to a guy who's putting your neighbors

0:02:36.960 --> 0:02:40.040
<v Speaker 4>in alligator camps all because of a lawsuit that your

0:02:40.080 --> 0:02:43.760
<v Speaker 4>own lawyers said was completely without merit. If that's true,

0:02:43.919 --> 0:02:47.320
<v Speaker 4>it would make CBS look morally bankrupt, also.

0:02:47.160 --> 0:02:52.240
<v Speaker 2>Bankrupt anyway, joining us now, I have no idea why

0:02:52.240 --> 0:02:55.680
<v Speaker 2>I like this guy. I really don't, you know, on paper,

0:02:55.720 --> 0:02:58.840
<v Speaker 2>I shouldn't even like him at all. Firs Han of

0:02:58.919 --> 0:03:02.800
<v Speaker 2>the ever growing Chris hanshow now with a whopping fifteen

0:03:02.840 --> 0:03:07.040
<v Speaker 2>affiliates nationwide. He's the host of the Aggressive Progressive podcast.

0:03:07.520 --> 0:03:08.800
<v Speaker 2>You're still on radio stations?

0:03:08.880 --> 0:03:09.000
<v Speaker 5>Right?

0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:09.960
<v Speaker 3>How many stations know?

0:03:10.360 --> 0:03:12.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I think you're right. I'm fifteen or twenty

0:03:12.720 --> 0:03:14.639
<v Speaker 1>something like that, mostly in the Northeast.

0:03:15.360 --> 0:03:19.120
<v Speaker 2>But he's better known as a former aide who one

0:03:19.160 --> 0:03:23.360
<v Speaker 2>of the angriest people in Washington who if he got

0:03:23.440 --> 0:03:28.000
<v Speaker 2>primaried by AOC, would get clobbered. And that is a

0:03:28.040 --> 0:03:32.040
<v Speaker 2>Senate Minority leader Chucky Schumer. You know he'd get clapberd. Right,

0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:34.360
<v Speaker 2>you do understand that. We'll get to that in a minute.

0:03:34.120 --> 0:03:36.160
<v Speaker 2>So think hard about your answer.

0:03:36.480 --> 0:03:38.920
<v Speaker 1>We do, all right, take on that, I believe, So you.

0:03:38.840 --> 0:03:41.520
<v Speaker 2>Know So you've been a guest over the years many

0:03:41.560 --> 0:03:46.400
<v Speaker 2>times on this program, and you know that how TV

0:03:46.480 --> 0:03:47.320
<v Speaker 2>and radio works.

0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:49.120
<v Speaker 3>You have your own radio program.

0:03:49.480 --> 0:03:51.800
<v Speaker 2>And if you have a show and you're being paid

0:03:51.840 --> 0:03:54.400
<v Speaker 2>money to do that show every day, and your show

0:03:54.480 --> 0:03:57.720
<v Speaker 2>is losing money for your partners, for your network or

0:03:57.760 --> 0:04:02.280
<v Speaker 2>your syndicator, whatever it happens to be, and your ratings

0:04:02.360 --> 0:04:05.880
<v Speaker 2>are going progressively down because you're not funny and you're

0:04:05.880 --> 0:04:09.400
<v Speaker 2>supposed to be a comedy show, and people don't watch

0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:13.200
<v Speaker 2>your show anymore, and you've lost a massive amount of audience.

0:04:13.680 --> 0:04:16.120
<v Speaker 2>What happens in that scenario.

0:04:15.680 --> 0:04:17.680
<v Speaker 1>First of all, you would take a hit.

0:04:18.279 --> 0:04:21.080
<v Speaker 3>I don't know that you know, slow down, Slow down?

0:04:21.240 --> 0:04:26.719
<v Speaker 2>What happens in television if your ratings sink so drastically

0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:28.440
<v Speaker 2>and dramatically like colbts have.

0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:32.280
<v Speaker 1>I've never seen a number one show get canceled and

0:04:32.320 --> 0:04:33.800
<v Speaker 1>it's the number one showing.

0:04:33.640 --> 0:04:34.320
<v Speaker 3>Ding Ding Ding.

0:04:35.440 --> 0:04:39.159
<v Speaker 2>No, No, it's not the number one show. Greg Guttfeld

0:04:39.320 --> 0:04:40.000
<v Speaker 2>smokes him.

0:04:41.279 --> 0:04:43.279
<v Speaker 1>He smoked thirty.

0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:45.640
<v Speaker 3>Okay, So the numbers.

0:04:45.200 --> 0:04:49.040
<v Speaker 2>That he has compared to Letterman and Leno when he

0:04:49.160 --> 0:04:52.760
<v Speaker 2>inherited the show, he's lost two thirds of the audience

0:04:52.839 --> 0:04:56.479
<v Speaker 2>that that Letterman formerly had on that show. He's losing

0:04:56.600 --> 0:04:59.800
<v Speaker 2>forty to fifty million dollars a year for the network.

0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:02.520
<v Speaker 2>And guess what the worst thing you can say about

0:05:02.560 --> 0:05:05.400
<v Speaker 2>a comic and I can admit I'll tell you who's funny.

0:05:05.440 --> 0:05:09.160
<v Speaker 2>I think John Stewart can be very, very funny, bitingly,

0:05:09.240 --> 0:05:12.320
<v Speaker 2>so the same thing with Bill Maher can be funny.

0:05:12.320 --> 0:05:15.080
<v Speaker 2>He's very smart. I disagree with a lot of what

0:05:15.160 --> 0:05:18.320
<v Speaker 2>he says. Both of them have gone after me and

0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:21.719
<v Speaker 2>I have actually laughed at what they've said because they're funny.

0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:23.160
<v Speaker 3>Stephen Colbert is not funny.

0:05:23.720 --> 0:05:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Well, look, I'm glad that you could take a joke.

0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:27.200
<v Speaker 1>I wish we all could take jokes. I could take

0:05:27.200 --> 0:05:28.960
<v Speaker 1>a joke. I mean, I come on here, your joke

0:05:29.040 --> 0:05:33.679
<v Speaker 1>on me. But look, I mean everyone in broadcast media

0:05:33.839 --> 0:05:37.680
<v Speaker 1>has lost market share because people don't watch TV the

0:05:37.720 --> 0:05:39.760
<v Speaker 1>way they used to. They can scream it.

0:05:39.880 --> 0:05:43.520
<v Speaker 2>Is Donald Trump responsible for his firing or is it

0:05:43.640 --> 0:05:46.360
<v Speaker 2>low ratings and loss of revenue responsible?

0:05:46.680 --> 0:05:49.160
<v Speaker 1>I think that it's a combination of the two.

0:05:49.440 --> 0:05:52.679
<v Speaker 2>I think they if his ratings were high or higher

0:05:52.680 --> 0:05:56.000
<v Speaker 2>than or as high as it was when David Letterman

0:05:56.120 --> 0:05:59.480
<v Speaker 2>had the show and he was making fifty million dollars

0:05:59.480 --> 0:06:01.080
<v Speaker 2>a year often for the network.

0:06:01.080 --> 0:06:03.440
<v Speaker 3>Would he have been fired, of course not.

0:06:03.560 --> 0:06:06.520
<v Speaker 1>But nobody is doing David Letterman, Okay, I.

0:06:06.480 --> 0:06:10.280
<v Speaker 2>Hate well, I hate to tell you. We're doing better

0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:13.880
<v Speaker 2>than we were doing years ago on the Fox News Channel.

0:06:14.160 --> 0:06:14.640
<v Speaker 3>We did this.

0:06:14.680 --> 0:06:16.960
<v Speaker 2>It's like every year we just keep growing thanks to

0:06:17.000 --> 0:06:20.840
<v Speaker 2>this great audience that we have. So uh, but you know,

0:06:21.040 --> 0:06:25.040
<v Speaker 2>have we had down years? Yeah, but nothing that resembles

0:06:25.080 --> 0:06:28.760
<v Speaker 2>the precipitous decline in audience attrition numbers that he has.

0:06:29.200 --> 0:06:31.359
<v Speaker 2>Why can't you just acknowledge a simple truth?

0:06:31.800 --> 0:06:34.320
<v Speaker 1>I think late night viewing is very, very different than

0:06:34.560 --> 0:06:37.760
<v Speaker 1>prime time viewing. At this point, people are watching Colbert

0:06:37.920 --> 0:06:39.040
<v Speaker 1>on YouTube the next time.

0:06:39.120 --> 0:06:43.240
<v Speaker 2>But why have people tuned out late night comedy? Why

0:06:43.240 --> 0:06:45.039
<v Speaker 2>are they tuning out in droves?

0:06:45.400 --> 0:06:47.840
<v Speaker 1>Well, people don't people viewing habits of changing.

0:06:47.880 --> 0:06:50.560
<v Speaker 3>You don't stay up till wrong, they're not funny.

0:06:50.640 --> 0:06:54.760
<v Speaker 2>If Johnny Carson were alive, or Johnny Carson took over

0:06:54.839 --> 0:06:57.640
<v Speaker 2>that show, that show would do much better.

0:06:57.760 --> 0:06:59.599
<v Speaker 3>You agree with that? Or a Jay Leno.

0:07:00.160 --> 0:07:04.320
<v Speaker 1>I am a comic myself. You know this, and I

0:07:04.440 --> 0:07:05.680
<v Speaker 1>happen to think that.

0:07:06.000 --> 0:07:08.800
<v Speaker 3>Wait a minute, you're an Now that's a joke, right, Oh.

0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:10.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm an in prop comic. Or do you think I

0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:11.960
<v Speaker 1>did so well on your show all these years?

0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:14.960
<v Speaker 2>Because you got to go watch my gig that I

0:07:14.960 --> 0:07:17.600
<v Speaker 2>did with Jimmy Fayla Punchlines on Patriots. It's on Fox

0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:20.120
<v Speaker 2>Nation dot com, and tell me how you think I did.

0:07:20.560 --> 0:07:22.120
<v Speaker 1>I will take a look and I will let you.

0:07:22.240 --> 0:07:25.280
<v Speaker 2>We sold that Ruth Eckert Hall in Clearwater, Florida, and

0:07:25.320 --> 0:07:27.880
<v Speaker 2>we had a rip roaring, fun, fun night.

0:07:28.600 --> 0:07:30.680
<v Speaker 1>What was the average age of the audience member, like

0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:32.760
<v Speaker 1>seventy five or no, it was We.

0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:35.960
<v Speaker 2>Had young people, middle aged people, older people, had everybody,

0:07:36.360 --> 0:07:38.040
<v Speaker 2>just like the demographics of this show.

0:07:38.320 --> 0:07:40.120
<v Speaker 3>It's all across the spectrum.

0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:42.960
<v Speaker 1>My grandmother retired to Clearwater. It's a beautiful beach.

0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:44.160
<v Speaker 3>I love it well.

0:07:44.160 --> 0:07:45.600
<v Speaker 2>She should have come to my show. I would have

0:07:45.600 --> 0:07:47.600
<v Speaker 2>given her a free seat. When you're a liberal, you

0:07:47.600 --> 0:07:48.400
<v Speaker 2>love free stuff.

0:07:48.680 --> 0:07:51.160
<v Speaker 1>She died four years ago. But my mother is.

0:07:51.360 --> 0:07:53.520
<v Speaker 2>All right now, now you're making me feel like crap.

0:07:53.760 --> 0:07:56.520
<v Speaker 2>My mother moved to Clearwater. Oh but she died. I mean,

0:07:56.560 --> 0:07:58.679
<v Speaker 2>tell me after the fact. Make me sound like a jerk.

0:07:58.880 --> 0:08:02.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm so, I am genuinely sorry. I lost my mother

0:08:02.320 --> 0:08:05.160
<v Speaker 2>a long time ago too. It sucks, all right, next.

0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:07.679
<v Speaker 1>Question, Sean, that was my grandmother the time. My mother's

0:08:07.720 --> 0:08:09.320
<v Speaker 1>still very much alive, Lizzie Ke, Oh.

0:08:09.280 --> 0:08:12.680
<v Speaker 2>Your grandmother moved there. Okay, I misunderstood. I'm sorry you

0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:17.600
<v Speaker 2>lost your grandma. Listen, it's going to be thirty years

0:08:17.640 --> 0:08:19.640
<v Speaker 2>next March when I lost my father, and my mother

0:08:19.680 --> 0:08:22.680
<v Speaker 2>are not long thereafter. It sucks to lose people you love.

0:08:22.720 --> 0:08:25.440
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's let's concede that point. Let's move on.

0:08:26.320 --> 0:08:33.280
<v Speaker 2>Chucky Schumer, Kathy Hulkel, Hakeem Jeffries, I argue, are deathly

0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:38.800
<v Speaker 2>afraid of Zoran Mom Donnie Marxist mom Donnie as we

0:08:38.880 --> 0:08:41.840
<v Speaker 2>refer to him on this show. They are afraid to

0:08:41.960 --> 0:08:47.520
<v Speaker 2>speak out against global Entafada. They're afraid to speak out

0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:52.160
<v Speaker 2>about him wanting government run grocery stores, and that billionaires

0:08:52.160 --> 0:08:55.920
<v Speaker 2>shouldn't exist, and that he wants to raise taxes, especially

0:08:55.960 --> 0:08:59.600
<v Speaker 2>in wider neighborhoods. Why won't they speak out about those

0:08:59.640 --> 0:09:01.920
<v Speaker 2>fundament things because I know the answer, and I know

0:09:02.000 --> 0:09:03.559
<v Speaker 2>you know the answer, but you're not going to tell

0:09:03.559 --> 0:09:07.960
<v Speaker 2>me the truth because you're a Chucky Schumer acolyte and disciple.

0:09:08.559 --> 0:09:11.400
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know there are government run grocery stores in

0:09:11.480 --> 0:09:13.800
<v Speaker 1>red states where there are food deserts, and there are

0:09:13.960 --> 0:09:16.440
<v Speaker 1>food deserts in New York City, and everybody's been talking

0:09:16.480 --> 0:09:19.000
<v Speaker 1>about having to fix it. And he says, look, I'll

0:09:19.040 --> 0:09:23.960
<v Speaker 1>subsidize a grocery store in areas where there are food deserts. Okay,

0:09:24.040 --> 0:09:26.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean I think that happens. It happens in slaws.

0:09:26.160 --> 0:09:28.920
<v Speaker 2>Okay, You're you're missing my overall point, and you're diverting

0:09:28.960 --> 0:09:30.920
<v Speaker 2>on a purpose, which is what you do. And I'm

0:09:30.920 --> 0:09:33.960
<v Speaker 2>trying to get you to answer the question. You and

0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:37.959
<v Speaker 2>I know that in real life deep in his heart,

0:09:38.080 --> 0:09:42.280
<v Speaker 2>Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries, Kathy Hulkel, all of these New

0:09:42.360 --> 0:09:46.120
<v Speaker 2>York politicians want nothing to do with Mom Donnie, but

0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:49.760
<v Speaker 2>they're scared to death to take him on. They're scared

0:09:49.800 --> 0:09:53.360
<v Speaker 2>to death to call out the squad, you know, squad members,

0:09:53.520 --> 0:09:57.559
<v Speaker 2>in my view, virulently anti Semitic. Why why are they

0:09:57.679 --> 0:10:00.840
<v Speaker 2>so afraid of their own radical in their party?

0:10:01.400 --> 0:10:03.960
<v Speaker 1>Well, look, first of all, mon Donnie hasn't won anything yet.

0:10:04.160 --> 0:10:07.080
<v Speaker 1>He won a primary. There is still an election to

0:10:07.080 --> 0:10:10.320
<v Speaker 1>be had. It's right now, a four way race, and

0:10:10.320 --> 0:10:12.440
<v Speaker 1>in a four way race, anything canse so.

0:10:12.559 --> 0:10:14.839
<v Speaker 2>Right now would be the time to speak out if

0:10:14.840 --> 0:10:17.280
<v Speaker 2>you had moral clarity and courage, wouldn't it?

0:10:17.320 --> 0:10:17.480
<v Speaker 5>Oh?

0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:17.800
<v Speaker 6>Oh?

0:10:17.880 --> 0:10:20.520
<v Speaker 1>Actually, if you're a big time politician and you speak

0:10:20.520 --> 0:10:23.600
<v Speaker 1>out right now, you give more oxygen and more legitimate

0:10:24.000 --> 0:10:26.319
<v Speaker 1>see the candidates who might want to be so.

0:10:26.600 --> 0:10:29.560
<v Speaker 2>If Chuck Schumer says, I can't vote for somebody that

0:10:29.640 --> 0:10:34.080
<v Speaker 2>won't condemn the global antifada and that wants to tax

0:10:34.160 --> 0:10:37.280
<v Speaker 2>people based on their race, that's a bad thing for

0:10:37.400 --> 0:10:38.680
<v Speaker 2>Chuck Schumer to do.

0:10:39.000 --> 0:10:39.520
<v Speaker 3>Is it okay?

0:10:39.559 --> 0:10:45.199
<v Speaker 2>You okay with his unwillingness to condemn global antifada? Are

0:10:45.240 --> 0:10:48.400
<v Speaker 2>you okay with his willingness to tax white neighborhoods more

0:10:48.440 --> 0:10:50.040
<v Speaker 2>than other neighborhoods.

0:10:49.880 --> 0:10:51.520
<v Speaker 1>Chuck has condemned globally.

0:10:51.600 --> 0:10:53.280
<v Speaker 3>I asked you if you're okay with it?

0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:58.200
<v Speaker 1>Am I okay? With what? Him? Not? A see?

0:10:58.240 --> 0:11:00.920
<v Speaker 2>All you do is run out the clock, pay close attention,

0:11:01.080 --> 0:11:02.480
<v Speaker 2>keep up. You're a talk show host?

0:11:03.559 --> 0:11:04.960
<v Speaker 3>What okay? Will you?

0:11:05.720 --> 0:11:09.320
<v Speaker 2>Will you speak out against Mom Donnie yourself? And will

0:11:09.360 --> 0:11:13.319
<v Speaker 2>you speak out against his refusal to condemn global antifada?

0:11:14.080 --> 0:11:17.439
<v Speaker 2>And will you speak out against his plan to tax

0:11:17.600 --> 0:11:19.440
<v Speaker 2>whider neighborhoods more money?

0:11:20.600 --> 0:11:25.080
<v Speaker 1>I believe if he does not condemn global antifada, He

0:11:25.160 --> 0:11:26.960
<v Speaker 1>should not be mayor of New York City.

0:11:27.040 --> 0:11:30.520
<v Speaker 2>Are you okay with his position to tax people based

0:11:30.559 --> 0:11:31.319
<v Speaker 2>on their race?

0:11:32.200 --> 0:11:34.040
<v Speaker 1>Well, he didn't say he was going to tax people

0:11:34.040 --> 0:11:36.120
<v Speaker 1>based on his on their race, he says, no.

0:11:36.200 --> 0:11:39.080
<v Speaker 3>He said he's going to tax the wider neighborhoods.

0:11:38.400 --> 0:11:42.480
<v Speaker 1>More, the richer, whier neighborhoods, and the property tax issue.

0:11:42.520 --> 0:11:45.160
<v Speaker 2>He was, well, that's is that or is that not

0:11:45.320 --> 0:11:48.240
<v Speaker 2>taxing people a factor of which based on race.

0:11:48.760 --> 0:11:50.839
<v Speaker 1>That was a very dumb thing to say.

0:11:51.360 --> 0:11:53.760
<v Speaker 3>But would you is what would you call it? There's

0:11:53.760 --> 0:11:54.920
<v Speaker 3>a word for it, isn't there?

0:11:55.400 --> 0:11:56.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

0:11:56.600 --> 0:11:58.640
<v Speaker 3>It is a what is what is the word that

0:11:58.679 --> 0:11:59.320
<v Speaker 3>I'm thinking of?

0:11:59.679 --> 0:12:02.439
<v Speaker 1>Your suggesting that it was a racist quote?

0:12:03.440 --> 0:12:04.280
<v Speaker 3>Well, let me ask you.

0:12:04.280 --> 0:12:07.280
<v Speaker 2>If a candidate ran and they said they're gonna, uh,

0:12:07.520 --> 0:12:12.839
<v Speaker 2>they want to tax African American neighbor neighborhoods more, or

0:12:13.080 --> 0:12:17.800
<v Speaker 2>Hispanic neighborhoods more, or Asian American neighborhoods more, would that

0:12:17.880 --> 0:12:19.080
<v Speaker 2>be racist in your view?

0:12:20.120 --> 0:12:22.959
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, just as if somebody said I bet that air traffic.

0:12:23.040 --> 0:12:26.920
<v Speaker 2>So you're saying, mom, Donnay's policies are racist, I'm.

0:12:26.720 --> 0:12:30.480
<v Speaker 1>Saying that seglecting things based on race can be racist,

0:12:30.520 --> 0:12:32.640
<v Speaker 1>like saying that an air traffic control.

0:12:32.480 --> 0:12:34.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm not asking if you think it can be. Is

0:12:34.880 --> 0:12:37.760
<v Speaker 2>his policy as stated racist.

0:12:37.600 --> 0:12:42.320
<v Speaker 1>No, it's not. He's talking about neighborhoods. It's you know it.

0:12:42.240 --> 0:12:44.760
<v Speaker 2>Is okay, So if you say you're you're gonna tax

0:12:45.000 --> 0:12:49.600
<v Speaker 2>richer African American neighborhoods more, would that be racist?

0:12:50.400 --> 0:12:53.760
<v Speaker 1>Again, if you're talking about the value of the property

0:12:53.880 --> 0:12:56.920
<v Speaker 1>and not the people who lived there. I thought, Look,

0:12:56.960 --> 0:12:59.479
<v Speaker 1>I think it's a dumb thing to say. Is it boorderline?

0:12:59.520 --> 0:13:01.800
<v Speaker 1>Is it race? I don't know. I don't think so.

0:13:02.000 --> 0:13:02.840
<v Speaker 3>You really don't think so.

0:13:03.480 --> 0:13:05.120
<v Speaker 1>No, I don't think when he said he was going

0:13:05.160 --> 0:13:07.480
<v Speaker 1>to tach richer, whier neighborhoods at a time.

0:13:07.320 --> 0:13:11.200
<v Speaker 2>Would you advise Chuck schumertists to have courage of his

0:13:11.360 --> 0:13:14.440
<v Speaker 2>convictions and speak out against this guy. Would you advise

0:13:14.559 --> 0:13:16.880
<v Speaker 2>Kathy Hokle to speak out against this guy? Would you

0:13:16.920 --> 0:13:19.320
<v Speaker 2>advise the King Jeffries to speak out against this guy.

0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:22.120
<v Speaker 1>I think they've got to view the landscape for this

0:13:22.200 --> 0:13:25.120
<v Speaker 1>election and see where it's going, because I don't I

0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:27.080
<v Speaker 1>don't think his victory is a short in New York.

0:13:27.280 --> 0:13:30.000
<v Speaker 1>I think Cuomo coul win. I think Slela Coin Sleewa

0:13:30.040 --> 0:13:32.200
<v Speaker 1>can win. I do not believe Adams can win, but

0:13:32.240 --> 0:13:34.120
<v Speaker 1>I do believe that there's a path for Pomo and

0:13:34.200 --> 0:13:35.760
<v Speaker 1>Sliwa to get elected.

0:13:35.760 --> 0:13:38.280
<v Speaker 2>Here quick break right back more with Chris Han and

0:13:38.360 --> 0:13:41.520
<v Speaker 2>on the other side of the break eight hundred and

0:13:41.559 --> 0:13:43.480
<v Speaker 2>ninety four one, Shawn is a number also your calls

0:13:43.480 --> 0:13:45.280
<v Speaker 2>coming up this Friday as we continue.

0:13:45.520 --> 0:13:47.640
<v Speaker 3>You know the old friend Chris Han.

0:13:47.760 --> 0:13:51.760
<v Speaker 2>He is the host of the Aggressive Progressive podcast and

0:13:51.800 --> 0:13:54.480
<v Speaker 2>he also was a former aide to US New York

0:13:54.520 --> 0:13:56.040
<v Speaker 2>Senator Chucky Schumer.

0:13:56.960 --> 0:13:58.840
<v Speaker 3>How great would it be if Sleiewa won? That would

0:13:58.840 --> 0:13:59.319
<v Speaker 3>be awesome.

0:14:00.160 --> 0:14:02.080
<v Speaker 1>You know, he was my radio partner for many years,

0:14:02.160 --> 0:14:04.319
<v Speaker 1>and I was the regular Koobie fill in on Curtis

0:14:04.360 --> 0:14:07.720
<v Speaker 1>and Koby in New York. So, I mean it'd be

0:14:07.760 --> 0:14:09.560
<v Speaker 1>funny think about.

0:14:09.320 --> 0:14:12.640
<v Speaker 2>All hard to fill in for. He's pretty hardcore. I

0:14:12.760 --> 0:14:13.520
<v Speaker 2>always liked him.

0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:15.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean, Curtis is an easy guy to do

0:14:15.880 --> 0:14:18.839
<v Speaker 1>radio with. He's funny as hell, smart as hell. I

0:14:18.840 --> 0:14:21.600
<v Speaker 1>would feel bad for New York City people who work

0:14:21.600 --> 0:14:23.120
<v Speaker 1>at Grazie Manchi because he's going to be bringing his

0:14:23.240 --> 0:14:25.520
<v Speaker 1>hundred cats with him if he moved in there.

0:14:25.960 --> 0:14:28.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he does, definitely. I got to get on him

0:14:28.160 --> 0:14:30.960
<v Speaker 2>about this crazy cat thing. It's not good. That's the

0:14:31.000 --> 0:14:32.360
<v Speaker 2>only thing I disagree with him on.

0:14:33.480 --> 0:14:33.880
<v Speaker 3>Anyway.

0:14:34.040 --> 0:14:39.360
<v Speaker 2>I do appreciate Chris Han, Chris Um, you know, deep

0:14:39.400 --> 0:14:42.600
<v Speaker 2>down in your heart, what's the right thing is. I'll

0:14:42.640 --> 0:14:45.000
<v Speaker 2>give you credit for loyalty, but I can't give you

0:14:45.120 --> 0:14:47.200
<v Speaker 2>credit for you know, how you defend it.

0:14:47.880 --> 0:14:50.400
<v Speaker 1>Hey man, we all got to do what we gotta do. Uh.

0:14:50.440 --> 0:14:52.480
<v Speaker 1>It's going to be an interesting election. I do think that.

0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:55.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't think his victory is guaranteed. Uh. And I

0:14:55.520 --> 0:14:58.080
<v Speaker 1>do think he's got all find out Jewish He's problem

0:14:58.080 --> 0:14:59.560
<v Speaker 1>with Jewis voters in New York City, and you better

0:14:59.600 --> 0:15:00.960
<v Speaker 1>fix it or he can't win.

0:15:01.560 --> 0:15:04.040

<v Speaker 2>I lived in Bay Pointe Bayport rather for a while

0:15:19.200 --> 0:15:19.760
<v Speaker 2>in my life.

0:15:20.360 --> 0:15:22.680
<v Speaker 7>I saw you in a local restaurant once, but I

0:15:22.840 --> 0:15:25.600
<v Speaker 7>didn't want to disturb you, but I saw you.

0:15:25.840 --> 0:15:26.200
<v Speaker 3>By the way.

0:15:26.280 --> 0:15:27.960

<v Speaker 2>People are very very gracious. Understand. I don't have this

0:15:36.800 --> 0:15:42.080
<v Speaker 2>microphone without your support. Understand I don't have that camera

0:15:42.120 --> 0:15:45.480
<v Speaker 2>at night on the Fox News channel without your support.

0:15:45.680 --> 0:15:48.520
<v Speaker 2>And people I know are a little hesitant sometimes if

0:15:48.560 --> 0:15:50.320
<v Speaker 2>they want to come over, get a picture, say hello.

0:15:50.480 --> 0:15:50.920
<v Speaker 3>Whatever.

0:15:51.560 --> 0:15:55.760
<v Speaker 2>I am giving everybody except crazy left wing lunatics that

0:16:02.800 --> 0:16:05.800
<v Speaker 2>you want. I'm grateful for your support. So let me

0:16:05.880 --> 0:16:08.200
<v Speaker 2>just clear the air on all of that so nobody

0:16:08.200 --> 0:16:10.400
<v Speaker 2>feels bad saying hello. I'm very grateful.

0:16:11.320 --> 0:16:12.320
<v Speaker 7>Thank you so much, Sean.

0:16:12.680 --> 0:16:14.800
<v Speaker 3>So what's on your mind in Long Island? You know

0:16:14.840 --> 0:16:16.560
<v Speaker 3>I grew up in Franklin Square, Long Island.

0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:17.160
<v Speaker 1>Sean.

0:16:17.280 --> 0:16:23.600
<v Speaker 7>I've always admired and respected the deference that you show

0:16:23.760 --> 0:16:26.960
<v Speaker 7>Trump with regard to your friendship. You never abuse your

0:16:26.960 --> 0:16:31.160
<v Speaker 7>friendship with Trump, and I think that's wonderful. But I'm

0:16:31.200 --> 0:16:35.600
<v Speaker 7>asking you to use your influence this time to ask

0:16:35.880 --> 0:16:40.400
<v Speaker 7>President Trump to do the eulogy for Hulk Hogan. I

0:16:40.440 --> 0:16:44.760
<v Speaker 7>would love to see President Trump do the eulogy, invite

0:16:44.800 --> 0:16:49.480
<v Speaker 7>Linda McMahon and Dana White. I would only point to

0:16:49.560 --> 0:16:53.800
<v Speaker 7>the convention. Could you have asked for a more compelling

0:16:54.400 --> 0:16:59.200
<v Speaker 7>or impassioned speech that Hulpe gave to help Trump get

0:16:59.280 --> 0:17:03.520
<v Speaker 7>over the finished Well, Hulk just crossed the finish line,

0:17:03.800 --> 0:17:08.960
<v Speaker 7>and we need Trump to help Hulk's family heal from

0:17:09.040 --> 0:17:11.880
<v Speaker 7>what they've gone through, and I would love to see

0:17:11.920 --> 0:17:16.600
<v Speaker 7>the President do that. I also have a personal circumstance

0:17:16.680 --> 0:17:20.800
<v Speaker 7>with my son. He was five years old. We're watching

0:17:20.880 --> 0:17:23.399
<v Speaker 7>Hulk pick a three hundred pound guy up and slam

0:17:23.480 --> 0:17:27.080
<v Speaker 7>him down on the canvas, and my son, he's sitting

0:17:27.119 --> 0:17:28.639
<v Speaker 7>on my lap and he looks up at me and

0:17:28.720 --> 0:17:31.160
<v Speaker 7>he goes, hey, Dad, do you think you could beat

0:17:31.240 --> 0:17:33.760
<v Speaker 7>Hulk Hogan? And I look back and forth at the

0:17:33.800 --> 0:17:35.879
<v Speaker 7>TV and my son and I look at him and

0:17:35.920 --> 0:17:39.280
<v Speaker 7>I say, yeah, I think I could beat him. And

0:17:39.320 --> 0:17:41.399
<v Speaker 7>my son looks up at me, five years old, and

0:17:41.440 --> 0:17:43.960
<v Speaker 7>he goes, I think you could beat him to dad,

0:17:44.880 --> 0:17:45.520
<v Speaker 7>my son.

0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:49.360
<v Speaker 2>That's pretty good, you know what he made. I love

0:17:49.440 --> 0:17:53.040
<v Speaker 2>when life is fun. We don't talk about this enough,

0:17:53.520 --> 0:17:55.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, there's so much we always talk about the

0:17:55.280 --> 0:17:58.280
<v Speaker 2>bad things. We always talk about the stressful things, you know,

0:17:58.359 --> 0:18:02.000
<v Speaker 2>what about the moments in life. Life When you're bonding

0:18:02.040 --> 0:18:04.800
<v Speaker 2>with your five year old son over his love of

0:18:04.880 --> 0:18:08.040
<v Speaker 2>hul kogd and talking about dad, do you think you

0:18:08.080 --> 0:18:08.600
<v Speaker 2>can take him?

0:18:08.600 --> 0:18:11.000
<v Speaker 3>How cool is that? You know? I think back.

0:18:11.040 --> 0:18:13.480
<v Speaker 2>My son is now twenty six years old, but I'll

0:18:13.520 --> 0:18:16.920
<v Speaker 2>never forget the hours and hours and hours we would

0:18:16.920 --> 0:18:20.680
<v Speaker 2>spend a playing PlayStation and a lot of people thought

0:18:20.680 --> 0:18:22.480
<v Speaker 2>it was a bad idea, but I always said, no,

0:18:22.560 --> 0:18:26.280
<v Speaker 2>it's a great idea because you really had to think

0:18:26.800 --> 0:18:30.240
<v Speaker 2>to get to the end of Scooby dooe Night of

0:18:30.240 --> 0:18:32.760
<v Speaker 2>one hundred Frites. And for those of you that ever

0:18:32.800 --> 0:18:34.879
<v Speaker 2>played it, you know exactly what I'm talking about. You

0:18:34.920 --> 0:18:37.359
<v Speaker 2>got to get Scooby snacks and then you go that

0:18:37.440 --> 0:18:41.000
<v Speaker 2>has thirteen different layers. It was my four year old

0:18:41.080 --> 0:18:42.960
<v Speaker 2>son that figured out how to beat the game, and

0:18:43.040 --> 0:18:44.960
<v Speaker 2>even after he showed me how to beat the game,

0:18:45.040 --> 0:18:47.520
<v Speaker 2>I still couldn't beat the game, which infuriated me, but

0:18:47.600 --> 0:18:49.600
<v Speaker 2>in a good way because I was kind of proud

0:18:49.600 --> 0:18:52.720
<v Speaker 2>of the fact that he figured it out himself. It's

0:18:52.840 --> 0:18:56.880
<v Speaker 2>moments like that, you know, people that do entertain us

0:18:57.040 --> 0:19:01.040
<v Speaker 2>make us laugh that have a good time. I'm I'm

0:19:01.080 --> 0:19:04.040
<v Speaker 2>grateful to all of them, and they use their talent.

0:19:04.160 --> 0:19:06.760
<v Speaker 2>In his case, he sacrificed his body to do it.

0:19:07.840 --> 0:19:10.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure it took a toll on his health. I

0:19:10.600 --> 0:19:12.479
<v Speaker 2>have no doubt. I never talked to him about it.

0:19:12.560 --> 0:19:16.919
<v Speaker 2>But every former professional athlete that I know, especially you know,

0:19:16.960 --> 0:19:19.280
<v Speaker 2>if you play any of our gladiator sports, I mean

0:19:19.280 --> 0:19:22.080
<v Speaker 2>they're the hockey players, football players, I mean they're they

0:19:22.080 --> 0:19:25.399
<v Speaker 2>get beaten up pretty bad, and usually they end up

0:19:25.400 --> 0:19:28.840
<v Speaker 2>with lifelong injuries and those joints don't work like they

0:19:28.840 --> 0:19:31.120
<v Speaker 2>did when they were kids, and they get knee replacements

0:19:31.119 --> 0:19:35.000
<v Speaker 2>and hip replacements and shoulder replacements, and and they're out

0:19:35.000 --> 0:19:38.400
<v Speaker 2>there to entertain all of us. And we love great champions,

0:19:38.400 --> 0:19:41.440
<v Speaker 2>and we love our fighters on the field and on

0:19:41.480 --> 0:19:43.959
<v Speaker 2>the ring and the rink and and every other sport.

0:19:44.680 --> 0:19:49.520
<v Speaker 2>So I have kind of have a rule that I

0:19:49.560 --> 0:19:53.959
<v Speaker 2>don't ask President Trump for any favors. I have to

0:19:53.960 --> 0:19:54.480
<v Speaker 2>do my job.

0:19:54.560 --> 0:19:58.720
<v Speaker 8>So I asked for interviews, Well, are we are so

0:19:58.920 --> 0:20:01.360
<v Speaker 8>lucky to have Trump? We were about to go off

0:20:01.400 --> 0:20:04.320
<v Speaker 8>the cliff and Trump has rescued us from that. And

0:20:04.359 --> 0:20:08.200
<v Speaker 8>it's amazing how badly they've abused him for ten years now.

0:20:08.560 --> 0:20:11.840
<v Speaker 8>He is not only the most powerful man on earth.

0:20:11.800 --> 0:20:15.280
<v Speaker 7>He's also the toughest. Look what he's gone through. And

0:20:15.800 --> 0:20:19.760
<v Speaker 7>back to the moment with my son. We are our

0:20:19.880 --> 0:20:24.040
<v Speaker 7>children's protector. And I convinced my son that I'm the

0:20:24.160 --> 0:20:26.840
<v Speaker 7>strongest daddy in the world, just like you did when

0:20:26.880 --> 0:20:30.600
<v Speaker 7>your children were babies. And that's our job as their fathers.

0:20:30.880 --> 0:20:34.520
<v Speaker 7>We have to have fatherhood come back. Fatherhood has to

0:20:34.560 --> 0:20:37.159
<v Speaker 7>come back. The women are doing great jobs, but we

0:20:37.400 --> 0:20:39.320
<v Speaker 7>need fatherhood to come back, and.

0:20:39.280 --> 0:20:42.040
<v Speaker 2>That we need fathers them mothers. We just do I mean,

0:20:42.280 --> 0:20:45.040
<v Speaker 2>and I couldn't agree with you more. You know, I

0:20:45.080 --> 0:20:49.080
<v Speaker 2>actually thought that, you know, once my kids graduate college,

0:20:49.080 --> 0:20:50.920
<v Speaker 2>that most of my job was done. I couldn't have

0:20:50.960 --> 0:20:54.320
<v Speaker 2>been more wrong. I find that at this stage in

0:20:54.320 --> 0:20:56.120
<v Speaker 2>their life. And I'm very proud of both of them,

0:20:56.480 --> 0:20:58.800
<v Speaker 2>both my kids, and they're great kids. And I'm not

0:20:58.800 --> 0:21:00.480
<v Speaker 2>going to get into what they do, but they're very

0:21:00.480 --> 0:21:05.800
<v Speaker 2>successful at what they do. And and I'm grateful they

0:21:05.840 --> 0:21:09.680
<v Speaker 2>didn't choose the public arena. I really am, because I

0:21:09.680 --> 0:21:11.760
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't want them to go through half of what I've

0:21:11.800 --> 0:21:14.640
<v Speaker 2>gone through. Never mind, you know, it's a level time

0:21:14.640 --> 0:21:17.760
<v Speaker 2>a dimension. I can't even comprehend what Donald Trump's been through,

0:21:19.000 --> 0:21:21.320
<v Speaker 2>but I'm glad that there are people that go through it.

0:21:21.359 --> 0:21:24.600
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, I mean, the good news is you go

0:21:24.640 --> 0:21:28.320
<v Speaker 2>through this period. You know, it's great when kids are toddlers,

0:21:28.359 --> 0:21:31.639
<v Speaker 2>it's great when they're really young, it's incredible stages. Then

0:21:31.680 --> 0:21:35.280
<v Speaker 2>you hit this age I don't know, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen,

0:21:35.320 --> 0:21:37.760
<v Speaker 2>whatever it is, and then your kids like the last

0:21:37.800 --> 0:21:40.199
<v Speaker 2>person they want to hang out with is you. And

0:21:40.240 --> 0:21:41.960
<v Speaker 2>then they go off to college, and then they come

0:21:41.960 --> 0:21:45.320
<v Speaker 2>home and then guess what the dream is. What's happened.

0:21:45.320 --> 0:21:47.719
<v Speaker 2>In my case, they become your best friend, and I

0:21:47.760 --> 0:21:49.399
<v Speaker 2>love that part of it. But they'll also but you're

0:21:49.440 --> 0:21:52.560
<v Speaker 2>also a parent. You'll give them advice and counsel whether

0:21:52.560 --> 0:21:54.040
<v Speaker 2>they want it or not. And they were all their

0:21:54.080 --> 0:21:55.520
<v Speaker 2>eyes when I tell them what it was like when

0:21:55.520 --> 0:21:58.080
<v Speaker 2>I grew up. But there's you know, all of it's

0:21:58.080 --> 0:22:01.240
<v Speaker 2>really special. I'll put it that way. Well, anyway, my friend,

0:22:01.280 --> 0:22:03.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna move on. I could talk to you all day.

0:22:03.440 --> 0:22:06.480
<v Speaker 2>You're the best. Have a great day. Eight hundred and

0:22:06.560 --> 0:22:09.159
<v Speaker 2>nine four one Sean. If you want to be a

0:22:09.240 --> 0:22:13.520
<v Speaker 2>part of the program, Austin he's in Missouri. Why did

0:22:13.640 --> 0:22:17.080
<v Speaker 2>I I had one aunt that referred to Missouri as Missouri,

0:22:17.520 --> 0:22:21.600
<v Speaker 2>Missouri Missouri. To me, it's Missouri. It's always been Missouri.

0:22:22.119 --> 0:22:24.600
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, we call it misery, but you can call it Missouri.

0:22:25.200 --> 0:22:28.720
<v Speaker 3>You call it misery. Well, you got two good senators

0:22:28.720 --> 0:22:29.160
<v Speaker 3>from there.

0:22:29.760 --> 0:22:31.720
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, oh yeah, No, I know him personally, but it's

0:22:31.720 --> 0:22:35.639
<v Speaker 6>hot out here. It's miserable. No, but actually, thanks for

0:22:35.640 --> 0:22:38.359
<v Speaker 6>taking my call. I grew up watching you and Alan

0:22:38.400 --> 0:22:40.720
<v Speaker 6>Combs back in the day when I was eight years old.

0:22:40.920 --> 0:22:42.280
<v Speaker 6>You know, I don't know any other eight year old

0:22:42.320 --> 0:22:45.080
<v Speaker 6>watching Alan Combs and Hannity.

0:22:45.240 --> 0:22:49.000
<v Speaker 2>But you know, I'm getting that more and more in

0:22:49.000 --> 0:22:50.520
<v Speaker 2>my life. And I don't know whether to take that

0:22:50.600 --> 0:22:53.680
<v Speaker 2>as a compliment or like, man, I got to look

0:22:53.720 --> 0:22:54.960
<v Speaker 2>in the mirror a little more deeply.

0:22:55.000 --> 0:22:55.720
<v Speaker 3>I'm getting old.

0:22:56.520 --> 0:22:58.760
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I know you're good, and I appreciate your service.

0:22:59.840 --> 0:23:01.840
<v Speaker 2>The thing is that I love doing what I do,

0:23:02.440 --> 0:23:06.359
<v Speaker 2>and I don't even think about doing anything else. Linda

0:23:06.440 --> 0:23:08.920
<v Speaker 2>keeps to saying, well, there's all this online chatter. Is

0:23:08.920 --> 0:23:10.680
<v Speaker 2>Hannady going to run for president? I don't even know

0:23:10.720 --> 0:23:12.280
<v Speaker 2>where this came from. Didn't come from me.

0:23:13.440 --> 0:23:14.479
<v Speaker 3>I'll be your first vote.

0:23:15.240 --> 0:23:18.439
<v Speaker 2>Oh my goodness, don't didn't know you're encouraging her. Stop

0:23:19.000 --> 0:23:19.960
<v Speaker 2>don't encourage her.

0:23:20.680 --> 0:23:23.280
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, well, I'll be quick. I know you got other guests,

0:23:23.280 --> 0:23:26.320
<v Speaker 6>but I regarding the Obama gate, I don't see any

0:23:26.320 --> 0:23:30.520
<v Speaker 6>accountability happening with this. Nothing happened with with Hillary, with Fauci.

0:23:31.000 --> 0:23:33.600
<v Speaker 6>You know, it seems like once you step out of

0:23:33.640 --> 0:23:37.720
<v Speaker 6>Congress and into the executive branches, you become untouchable. I mean,

0:23:37.880 --> 0:23:41.360
<v Speaker 6>unless you're a Republican like Trump. You know, the the

0:23:41.480 --> 0:23:45.080
<v Speaker 6>Democratic Party, they seem like they're so powerful that they

0:23:45.119 --> 0:23:50.640
<v Speaker 6>can get away with literally everything. And I want to know, honestly, Sean,

0:23:50.720 --> 0:23:52.600
<v Speaker 6>I want to know what your expectations are out of this,

0:23:52.720 --> 0:23:57.080
<v Speaker 6>because if we continue going down this path with no standards,

0:23:57.119 --> 0:23:59.119
<v Speaker 6>no accountability, it's going to continue to happen.

0:24:00.760 --> 0:24:01.879
<v Speaker 3>I am telling you right now.

0:24:01.880 --> 0:24:05.680
<v Speaker 2>And I do agree with Jonathan Turley that Brennan and

0:24:05.720 --> 0:24:08.439
<v Speaker 2>maybe a couple of others. You know, Brennan now is

0:24:08.480 --> 0:24:11.720
<v Speaker 2>officially lawyered up, as he should. But if we don't

0:24:11.720 --> 0:24:17.679
<v Speaker 2>hold these people accountable for abusing power in these spectacular ways, uh,

0:24:18.040 --> 0:24:20.440
<v Speaker 2>then we're just going to continue to have more of it.

0:24:21.200 --> 0:24:24.520
<v Speaker 2>You know what I really want and hope for with

0:24:24.640 --> 0:24:29.199
<v Speaker 2>the intelligence community and with the FBI. I want they

0:24:29.560 --> 0:24:34.240
<v Speaker 2>used to be the world's premier law enforcement and intelligence agencies.

0:24:35.080 --> 0:24:37.720
<v Speaker 2>I want to restore them to their former greatness. And

0:24:37.760 --> 0:24:40.159
<v Speaker 2>I'm not saying that we haven't had moments, you know,

0:24:40.280 --> 0:24:43.600
<v Speaker 2>go back to the Church Committee or go back to

0:24:43.720 --> 0:24:44.560
<v Speaker 2>Jed Hoover.

0:24:45.280 --> 0:24:45.480
<v Speaker 1>You know.

0:24:45.520 --> 0:24:48.880
<v Speaker 2>One of the reasons I've not talked about the MLK

0:24:49.040 --> 0:24:51.840
<v Speaker 2>files that were released. Are you Are you even aware

0:24:51.880 --> 0:24:53.080
<v Speaker 2>they were released this week?

0:24:54.840 --> 0:24:55.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:24:55.440 --> 0:24:58.280
<v Speaker 2>One of the reasons is I don't like how the

0:24:58.480 --> 0:25:03.719
<v Speaker 2>FBI MLK JR. I think they used many of the

0:25:03.720 --> 0:25:09.240
<v Speaker 2>same tactics that they used against Donald Trump, illegal wire

0:25:09.359 --> 0:25:13.960
<v Speaker 2>tapping and spying on him and putting cameras in hotel rooms.

0:25:14.520 --> 0:25:19.560
<v Speaker 2>And they did get information, and that information is pretty salacious,

0:25:21.000 --> 0:25:24.120
<v Speaker 2>and I've known about this for some time, but I'm sorry,

0:25:24.240 --> 0:25:28.240
<v Speaker 2>I feel like it was gotten in a nefarious way. Therefore,

0:25:28.400 --> 0:25:31.520
<v Speaker 2>I don't think it's fair to him, his memory, the

0:25:31.560 --> 0:25:34.880
<v Speaker 2>good work he did in his life. Nobody's perfect and

0:25:34.920 --> 0:25:37.919
<v Speaker 2>his family for them to go through that, And I

0:25:37.960 --> 0:25:41.280
<v Speaker 2>support the family and what they're saying, which is, you know,

0:25:43.280 --> 0:25:45.440
<v Speaker 2>they didn't want it released, it had to be released.

0:25:45.680 --> 0:25:47.000
<v Speaker 3>If you have it, you release it.

0:25:47.960 --> 0:25:50.639
<v Speaker 2>But I agree with them that, you know, considering the

0:25:50.720 --> 0:25:54.159
<v Speaker 2>circumstances under which some of this material was gotten, I

0:25:54.240 --> 0:25:58.879
<v Speaker 2>believe personally my view violating his rights. This has to

0:25:58.880 --> 0:26:02.840
<v Speaker 2>stop or will continue. You anyway, my friend, God bless you.

0:26:02.880 --> 0:26:03.639
<v Speaker 3>Get some air.

0:26:03.920 --> 0:26:06.880
<v Speaker 2>Get in the air conditioner while the heat's blazing over

0:26:06.880 --> 0:26:12.000
<v Speaker 2>there in Missouri today. Back to our phones. Let us

0:26:12.080 --> 0:26:14.720
<v Speaker 2>go to Jack in South Carolina. What's up Jack?

0:26:14.760 --> 0:26:15.280
<v Speaker 3>How are you?

0:26:15.520 --> 0:26:20.959
<v Speaker 5>Hi? Hi? Sharon? You know, I know we all wanta transparency.

0:26:21.040 --> 0:26:25.040
<v Speaker 5>I say, everybody's begging for it. I go back to

0:26:25.240 --> 0:26:28.879
<v Speaker 5>Watergate here, that's how That's how old I am. And

0:26:28.960 --> 0:26:32.320
<v Speaker 5>I've watched Benghazi and Oliver North and you name it.

0:26:33.400 --> 0:26:35.760
<v Speaker 5>And it's a bunch of grand standing. It's a bunch

0:26:35.800 --> 0:26:38.680
<v Speaker 5>of speeches. And the only thing they can do in

0:26:38.880 --> 0:26:42.760
<v Speaker 5>cardress is do a referral. And now we get Gabbage,

0:26:43.760 --> 0:26:47.840
<v Speaker 5>God bless her, and she's she's making all these press

0:26:47.880 --> 0:26:52.600
<v Speaker 5>conferences about what she's doing as a referral. Why don't

0:26:52.600 --> 0:26:57.880
<v Speaker 5>we just stop hyping us up, getting our expectations up.

0:26:58.600 --> 0:27:01.879
<v Speaker 5>Send this stuff to a green and let's hear about

0:27:01.880 --> 0:27:03.480
<v Speaker 5>the indictments and be done with.

0:27:03.800 --> 0:27:06.960
<v Speaker 2>Well, remember the one person that they actually brought all

0:27:07.040 --> 0:27:09.879
<v Speaker 2>this to fruition for was all based on, you know,

0:27:10.480 --> 0:27:13.800
<v Speaker 2>a bunch of lies and phony arguments.

0:27:13.840 --> 0:27:17.600
<v Speaker 3>Was Donald Trump. So it has come to fruition number one.

0:27:17.720 --> 0:27:19.000
<v Speaker 3>Number two. You're right.

0:27:19.720 --> 0:27:23.720
<v Speaker 2>They often over promise, under deliver, and you're right people

0:27:23.800 --> 0:27:25.919
<v Speaker 2>that have done wrong have gotten away with wrong things.

0:27:26.480 --> 0:27:30.200
<v Speaker 2>And you're right, expectations sometimes are set too high. As

0:27:30.240 --> 0:27:33.520
<v Speaker 2>of right now, we see that they corrupted the intelligence

0:27:33.560 --> 0:27:37.200
<v Speaker 2>on purpose. Right now, it was referred to the Department

0:27:37.240 --> 0:27:40.040
<v Speaker 2>of Justice. Right now, there's a strike force that has

0:27:40.080 --> 0:27:43.920
<v Speaker 2>been formed. Right now, there's a grand conspiracy investigation within

0:27:43.960 --> 0:27:47.399
<v Speaker 2>the FBI as it relates to the ten years of Trump.

0:27:47.840 --> 0:27:49.200
<v Speaker 3>So you're right on every front.

0:27:50.160 --> 0:27:53.040
<v Speaker 2>And my hope is is that all the pieces are

0:27:53.040 --> 0:27:56.600
<v Speaker 2>in place and that this time will be different. I'm

0:27:56.640 --> 0:27:59.399
<v Speaker 2>not guaranteeing that as a matter of fact, I'm worried

0:27:59.440 --> 0:28:04.680
<v Speaker 2>as you are, but you know, we can't. We've got

0:28:04.680 --> 0:28:07.399
<v Speaker 2>to try. I'll go to my favorite, one of my

0:28:07.400 --> 0:28:11.119
<v Speaker 2>favorite scenes in Braveheart. What we've been doing these three years.

0:28:11.160 --> 0:28:15.119
<v Speaker 2>We got to try. You got to try, and we

0:28:15.240 --> 0:28:18.600
<v Speaker 2>got to try our best. And we have a responsibility

0:28:18.760 --> 0:28:21.840
<v Speaker 2>to our country and our children and the rule of

0:28:21.920 --> 0:28:25.160
<v Speaker 2>law and not trying is not an alternative.

0:28:26.240 --> 0:28:28.760
<v Speaker 3>I got to run, my friend. I do appreciate your call,

0:28:28.960 --> 0:28:29.679
