Speaker 3: We're on our way home from school tonight and out

13
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 3: of nowhere, my twelve year old daughter says, do you

14
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 3: know why I'm worried about having kids racing myself for

15
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:09,759
Speaker 3: some climate scare mongering or some other brand of crazy

16
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 3: that TikToker or teachers are pushing.

17
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 2: I responded, no.

18
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 3: Why, she says, I'm afraid they'll come home one day

19
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 3: and they'll tell me they're trans and I'll say, oh, no,

20
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 3: you're not, and then they'll hate me, and the school

21
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 3: will call me in and yell at me and tell

22
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 3: me I'm anti trans, and I'll say you damn right,

23
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 3: I am.

24
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 2: This is a twelve year old.

25
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 4: By the way, Wow, who has a very similar attitude

26
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 4: is my twelve year old? Isn't that interesting? So many

27
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,039
Speaker 4: thoughts and emotions racing through my head. But in the

28
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 4: moment I couldn't ever stout laughing.

29
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:39,959
Speaker 3: I told her, I hope it's bad that will have

30
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 3: passed by the time she has kids. I certainly think

31
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 3: it will. I wouldn't call it a fad kind of one.

32
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 3: It's a psychological contagion. There are a bunch of examples

33
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 3: of this through history.

34
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 4: How interesting is that the kids like her kid and

35
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 4: my kid coming to this conclusion in the face of

36
00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 4: everything around them other than like reality.

37
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, this young woman, obviously, God bless her, has

38
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 3: the I am not going to tell you to ignore

39
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 3: the evidence of my eyes and ears and my conscience.

40
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 3: Good for her anyway, Who knows, maybe a little be

41
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 3: the kids of this generation, whatever they're called, who are

42
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 3: growing up rolling their eyes at the furries in their classrooms.

43
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 3: They're sick of having pronouns and gender issues shoved down

44
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,800
Speaker 3: their throats. Who can see plainly and simply that the

45
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 3: trans and nine non binary kids are mainly just misfits

46
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 3: who are desperate for attention and belonging ding. Maybe today's

47
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,640
Speaker 3: middle schoolers will be the ones to rebel with conservatism

48
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 3: and put a stop to the madness eventually.

49
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 4: My son's always bringing up the furries. How does he

50
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 4: even know the word furries?

51
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 3: Brilliantly said an anonymous and good for your kid. You

52
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 3: are absolutely right on every single count. How's about this?

53
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,239
Speaker 3: Greeting's Big Freedom's old simple Jack in America's Sweethearts Michael,

54
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 3: Katie and Hanson. Our fabulous son, who just happens to

55
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 3: be of mixed heritage, is about the same age as

56
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 3: Jack's oldest, and, like Jack, soon or a young man,

57
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 3: is starting the years of freshmen at a very nice

58
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 3: California public high school. We've driven our son to and

59
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 3: from school since kindergarten in order to be sure he

60
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:20,639
Speaker 3: attends better than nearby local schools up with school choice,

61
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,799
Speaker 3: let's see. Due to this and to and fro drive time,

62
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 3: our son also enjoys the statistically proven educational advantage of

63
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,639
Speaker 3: listening to the Armstrong and Getty Show. Our son, who

64
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 3: naturally understands the meaning of such words as Marxist, woke, progressive,

65
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 3: and scumbag reported that his classes were pretty much chill

66
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 3: and relax He reported that week one, after reviewing the

67
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 3: class syllabus, he asked his chill I think, I can

68
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 3: you know I'm going to leave the subject even out,

69
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 3: But he asked his chill blank teacher, what does climate

70
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 3: change have to do with this topic? The teacher leaned

71
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 3: in and quietly told him nothing.

72
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 2: They make us teach this stuff. Oh my god, wow. Wow.

73
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 2: The notable exception.

74
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 3: To the mostly chill and relaxed teachers who would say

75
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 3: that to him was the wait for it, young white,

76
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 3: college educated female English teacher who has a giant Pride

77
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:21,159
Speaker 3: flag hanging in her classroom. This has been our son's

78
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 3: English teacher's teachings. Week one read a novel about the

79
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 3: offensive nature of quote not seeing color. Next week, definition examples,

80
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 3: and how to react to microaggressions.

81
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 2: Oh man, then he.

82
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 3: Was to declare what genders he identifies as for that week. Boy,

83
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 3: the whole microaggressions thing has been so thoroughly debunked and

84
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 3: misproven that that or whatever the word is, that that's

85
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 3: the worst thing you can do is have people, you know,

86
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 3: focus on microaggressions. Finally, last week he was to declare

87
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 3: his to the class his pronouns. This is English class now.

88
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 3: He stood up and proudly declared that his pronouns were

89
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:08,280
Speaker 3: HRH and HRM, his Royal Highness and his royal majesty.

90
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 3: He reports that the class erupted in laughter and cheers.

91
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 3: His English teacher, on the other hand, was not amused

92
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 3: and angrily announced that his declaration was quote not appropriate

93
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 3: for her English class.

94
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 2: Why aren't you reading Shakespeare or something?

95
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 3: Oh, let's see on brighter side. Substitute teacher came in

96
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 3: who'd taught for decades. When the gentleman asked the class

97
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 3: what they had last worked on and was told pronouns,

98
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 3: he declared to the class, I will be teaching English

99
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 3: and nothing else. Twitch The class of kids cheered wow.

100
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,480
Speaker 2: A and g s A y daat ang.

101
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 3: Saving America's utes one day at a time, Alnonymous.

102
00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 4: You know it's not unrelated to the Wall Street Journal

103
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 4: opinion piece we read earlier about how America isn't ignoring

104
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 4: the fact that World War.

105
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 2: Three is on the horizon.

106
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 4: They're not unrelated that we're so willingly like giving away

107
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 4: Western civilization or embarrassed by it. Of course, they're related.

108
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 4: There's why would there be a great need to protect

109
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 4: something that.

110
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 2: You don't like?

111
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I remember years It just started years ago

112
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 4: when I think it. Harold Bloom, his last name is Bloom,

113
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,159
Speaker 4: the world's greatest Shakespeare expert who taught at Yale for

114
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 4: years and years, and how he was so bothered by

115
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 4: the fact that nobody taught Shakespeare anymore so, the greatest

116
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 4: writer in the English language of all time was no

117
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 4: longer being taught in the universities, unless it was to

118
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:52,280
Speaker 4: point out how misogynist or racist or you know, male

119
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 4: toxic it was, or anything like That was the only

120
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,160
Speaker 4: time I'd ever come up if at all. Well, if

121
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 4: you're that willing to give away your culture, of course

122
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 4: you're not figuring out how to make sure China, Russia.

123
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 2: And Iran don't band together to win.

124
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 3: Right, right in the success that they have had coming

125
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 3: up primarily through education, the teachers, colleges, and then the

126
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 3: schools in indoctrinating several generations of American kids and Western

127
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 3: kids in general into this stuff. Admires the wrong word.

128
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 3: You've got to respect how incredibly evil and devious and

129
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 3: successful it has been, and we.

130
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 2: Let it happen under our watch.

131
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 4: I was reading Henry the Fifth and listening to it

132
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 4: at fair amount over the weekend because I was doing

133
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 4: this history podcast about the Battle of Asancore, which is

134
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 4: what is in Henry the Fifth. The Shakespeare thing, that's

135
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 4: the famous speech we band of Brothers, That whole speech

136
00:07:55,920 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 4: is from that. But man, the writing of Shakespeare. I

137
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 4: know this is a ridiculous thing for anyone to say,

138
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 4: but it's just so amazing. I mean, it's unimaginably rich

139
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 4: and amazing. And the fact that we don't teach it

140
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 4: in universities anymore will come on in China, we don't

141
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 4: care about our culture.

142
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 3: No, I'm sure there are multiple really good books about this. Actually,

143
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 3: I can think of a couple that are more or

144
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 3: less on this topic. And I just bought a Douglas

145
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 3: Murray book, The Strange Death of Europe, I think is

146
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 3: the title. Can't wait to dig into that, probably tonight.

147
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 3: But how the civil rights movement followed fairly closely after

148
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:45,559
Speaker 3: the development of the critical theory crowd in France and Germany,

149
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 3: and how they realized, oh, racial divisions and later sexual divisions,

150
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 3: that's where we convinced people to hate their own countries

151
00:08:58,640 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 3: and their own civilizations.

152
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 2: It's not gonna be workers of the World unite.

153
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:06,719
Speaker 3: It's gonna be every single misfit or minority we can

154
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 3: think of.

155
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 2: We'll come up with a way to convince them.

156
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 3: That there's no redeeming their society and they've got to

157
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,959
Speaker 3: help us tear it down. That's what we'll do. And

158
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 3: just for what it's worth, this is not my paranoid ratings.

159
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:25,559
Speaker 4: They wrote books with their names on the cover describing

160
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:27,600
Speaker 4: this very process.

161
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 3: And they got it into the schools and universities. Again,

162
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 3: it's insidious, it's horrifying, it's heartbreaking, but it has been successful.

163
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 4: And as my twelve year old just finished reading Animal

164
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:42,199
Speaker 4: Farm and picking up on the fact that the people

165
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 4: who promised, you know, a more fair world took over

166
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 4: and were the same tyrants as the tyrants before a

167
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 4: line from the Who song one of the best lines

168
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,480
Speaker 4: ever in rock music. Meet the new boss same as

169
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 4: the old boss.

170
00:09:57,920 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 2: Yeah so good. Yeah yeah.

171
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 3: And as I tweeted the other day, I untleashed a

172
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 3: long screed about elections and political theory and stuff like that.

173
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 3: I don't know why the urge just overcame me, but

174
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:15,679
Speaker 3: I was describing how elegant the description in nineteen eighty

175
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:20,199
Speaker 3: four is of the scam the Orwell book. Obviously, and

176
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 3: interestingly enough, Well I won't give you the context because

177
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 3: it's fairly straightforward.

178
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:25,559
Speaker 5: But.

179
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 3: He explains how the time honored technique is. The middle

180
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 3: says to the low, we're talking about like layers of society.

181
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 3: The middle says to the low, we will overthrow the high.

182
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 2: You gotta join with us. We'll overthrow the high.

183
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 3: And the middle throws out the high and becomes the high,

184
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 3: and the low gets screwed see Black America. Since you

185
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,839
Speaker 3: know the New Deal practically, since the welfare state came

186
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 3: into being and debased the black family and made them

187
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 3: dependent on the largesse of the government as opposed to

188
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 3: their own genius and hard work. Anyway, then the next

189
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 3: time around the old high, remember they're now the middle,

190
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 3: they make.

191
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:18,720
Speaker 2: The same promise to the low.

192
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 3: Maybe they throw out the current high, maybe they don't,

193
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:26,080
Speaker 3: but either way, it's a scam.

194
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 2: History of the world, yep, pretty much.

195
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 1: Jack Armstrong and Joe, The Armstrong and Getty Show, Jack

196
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 1: Armstrong and.

197
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 2: Joe Getty, The Armstrong and Getty Show. Back to Joe

198
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 2: and Burton's soul.

199
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 3: So I have a lot of worries about Trump character

200
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 3: wise and judgment wise, and a few geopolitically. But at

201
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 3: the same time time, Kamala Harris's policies are so ruinous,

202
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 3: so dangerous, and she's such an idiot it's it's difficult

203
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:14,080
Speaker 3: to know. I mean, like in terms of geopolitics, national security,

204
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 3: it's impossible to know what the hell she has in mind.

205
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 3: She hasn't given a single clue. But when it comes

206
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 3: to free speech, pro the economy, pro business, lower regulation,

207
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 3: not sacrificing our economy on the altar of green, this,

208
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 3: that and the other. Oh, I mean, I think Trump

209
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:39,000
Speaker 3: is well who was it? Who said was it? Bill

210
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 3: Barr said? Trump is Russian Roulette, Kamala Harris's national suicide.

211
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:44,559
Speaker 2: I think that's true.

212
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:46,839
Speaker 3: The one thing that does worry me a little bit

213
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:50,840
Speaker 3: about Trump, though, is he is, I think, partly for

214
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 3: ego reasons, utterly unable to do the hard thing now

215
00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 3: to protect the future. Fiscally speaking, guy say now granted

216
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 3: on the campaign trail some of the things he proposed,

217
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 3: I mean, the campaign it's silly season, you claimed, you

218
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,599
Speaker 3: promise all sorts of ridiculous crap that couldn't happen in

219
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 3: a thousand years. Oh yeah, even if you were sincere

220
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,839
Speaker 3: about of Congress would never let you do it, even

221
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 3: if it was your own party.

222
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:15,040
Speaker 6: Yeah.

223
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 4: I remember when I read Stephanopolis's book All Too Human

224
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:21,960
Speaker 4: about the Clinton campaign. It's going way back, but nothing

225
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,680
Speaker 4: has changed. Just he was talking in that book about

226
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 4: that because he ran Clinton's campaign. If you don't know that,

227
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 4: George Stephanopolis from ABC this week, he was talking about

228
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:33,680
Speaker 4: all the things that you promised that you know you

229
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 4: aren't even going to try to do, and then the

230
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,160
Speaker 4: things that you promised that you'll try but you don't

231
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 4: think you can do them, and then the things you

232
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,200
Speaker 4: promised that you actually that's why you're running for president.

233
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 4: But there there's a list of things that you don't

234
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 4: even intend to, like have a meeting about.

235
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 3: You're not.

236
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 4: I mean, there's zero effort whatsoever that you're out there

237
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:54,200
Speaker 4: nickname for those things.

238
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 2: I don't know, it's just a category.

239
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 4: I think they all they just all acknowledged, they all

240
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,679
Speaker 4: probably know the thing is that they're talking about that. Oh,

241
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 4: nobody's even going to bring this up the next day.

242
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 4: We're not even gonna have a meeting on it, right, Yeah,

243
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,559
Speaker 4: not interesting. Beautiful, that is interesting.

244
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:14,680
Speaker 3: But in terms of being afraid of what this country

245
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 3: would look like, it's funny. The left is always talking

246
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 3: about how Trump is this, that and the other new

247
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 3: Hitler blah blah blah, threatening democracy, threatening democracy. You have

248
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,520
Speaker 3: the left trying to tear down the Supreme Court, trying

249
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 3: to end the filibuster. Tim Walls was in cal Unicorney

250
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 3: the other day, suck it up to Gavin Newsom saying, Hey,

251
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 3: we need to end the electoral college. We need to

252
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 3: go to a popular election of the president. We need

253
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 3: to do this as soon as possible. That would bring

254
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 3: civil war to this country. So though I am uncomfortable

255
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,920
Speaker 3: with Trump, it's to me he's clearly the right choice anyway.

256
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 3: Having said that, though, the one thing that bothers me

257
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,600
Speaker 3: is that he has all sorts of policies that would

258
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 3: would be wildly inflationary, partly because of rampant spending. He

259
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 3: seems to have no hesitation to spend like a lunatic

260
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 3: in lower taxes, and that's dangerous. And I came across

261
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 3: this from Milton Friedman, who is always worth quoting.

262
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 2: Michael. It's clip number fourteen if you would.

263
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 3: The great Milton Friedman on inflation and all sorts of.

264
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 7: Stuff, Inflation is the most destructive disease known to modern societies.

265
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 7: There is nothing which will destroy a society so fairly

266
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 7: and so fully as.

267
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 2: Letting inflation run right.

268
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 7: Inflation doesn't arise because you got to consumers who are.

269
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 2: Spends s rift. They've always been spend script. It doesn't arise.

270
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 7: Because you've got the businessmen who are greedy.

271
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:34,160
Speaker 2: They've always been greedy.

272
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 7: Inflation arises because we, as citizens have been asking you,

273
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 7: as politicians, to perform an impossible test.

274
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 2: We've been asking you to spend.

275
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 7: Somebody else's money on us, but not to spend our

276
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 7: money on anybody else. Everybody talks against inflation, but what

277
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,400
Speaker 7: he means is that he wants the prices of the

278
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 7: things he sells to go up and the prices of

279
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 7: the things he buys to go down. The real tax

280
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 7: on the American people is not what.

281
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 2: You label taxes. It's total spending.

282
00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 7: If Congress spends fifty billion dollars more than it takes in,

283
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 7: if govern and spend fifty billion dolls who do you supoth

284
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 7: pay that fifty billion dollars? The Arab cheeks aren't paying it.

285
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 7: Santa Claus isn't playing it. The tooth fairy isn't paying it.

286
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 7: You and I, as taxpayers are paying it indirectly through

287
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 7: hidden taxation.

288
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's one of my favorite quotes from him, and

289
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 4: something the man they should teach in school. The real

290
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,280
Speaker 4: rate of taxation is the rate of spending because it

291
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 4: has to get paid for someday. So whatever way they

292
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 4: come up with a way to get money from you,

293
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 4: that that's the rate of taxation.

294
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 3: But with interest, Yeah, which is the insidious part, and

295
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 3: that sort of the need for the US to service

296
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 3: debt at the level we're accumulating, it will drive up

297
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 3: interest rates for all of us, so it will be

298
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 3: much more difficult to borrow money to buy houses, cars,

299
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 3: et cetera, for businesses to borrow money. And inflation is

300
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 3: a tax. They print money to give us a bucket

301
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:56,040
Speaker 3: a quarter. With the services for a buck it devalues

302
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 3: the money we have. That's the hidden tax, and then

303
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 3: we got to hit it back with interest. It's it's

304
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 3: brutally horrifically unwise.

305
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 2: Nobody wants to hear this.

306
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:08,879
Speaker 4: I'm done right, So this is not the stuff that

307
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:12,120
Speaker 4: gets talked about during elections, certainly not the last month

308
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 4: of any presidential election at this point in our nation's history.

317
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 2: First this.

318
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 4: I've been meaning to talk about this for a while.

319
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:50,960
Speaker 4: LA Times has a story about how the San Francisco

320
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,120
Speaker 4: mayor's race is the hottest and many many years, San

321
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 4: Francisco tech workers are spending millions on the mayor's race

322
00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 4: in San Francisco because they want the politics to be

323
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 4: more sent T's just less progressive. I bring this up

324
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:04,159
Speaker 4: for the rest of the country. He doesn't live in

325
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 4: San Francisco to wint out that there must be a limit.

326
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,360
Speaker 4: Apparently there's a limit for everybody. Yeah, how far how

327
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,920
Speaker 4: crappy you can let your town get with liberal policies

328
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 4: before you'll decide to do something different. I was just

329
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:18,400
Speaker 4: reading about this ad this activist dude who's got somehow

330
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 4: all sorts of political power because he has a bunch

331
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 4: of followers in San Francisco, who's so staunchly against quote

332
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:30,120
Speaker 4: unquote gentrification that anything that improves anything he's against, that's

333
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,399
Speaker 4: a weird and he gets his neighbors to go along

334
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 4: with it.

335
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 2: That's a wild position. I'd say.

336
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 4: We were talking earlier about we're in the last three

337
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:41,639
Speaker 4: weeks of the election, and both sides are promising to

338
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 4: give people all kinds of things they can't actually give

339
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 4: them because so many people vote on who's going to

340
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,680
Speaker 4: give me the most. Got this text, I don't vote

341
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 4: for who will give me something. I will vote for

342
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 4: who takes less from me. Yeah, that's the category I'm in.

343
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 4: But about half the country don't believe there's such thing

344
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,680
Speaker 4: as that. I guess everything you learn really belongs to

345
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 4: the government, and it's up to the government and to

346
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,440
Speaker 4: let you. They decide how much they'll let you have, right,

347
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,400
Speaker 4: and they'll take the part that's important for all of society. Hey,

348
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 4: one man's socialism is another man's neighborliness, says Tim Walls, Right,

349
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 4: and those are the same people who think the government

350
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 4: gives you your rights. Yeah, the same principle on the

351
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 4: Starbucks thing with the bathroom. So Starbucks the communal sinks

352
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:24,399
Speaker 4: that they now have because they took the bathrooms and

353
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,399
Speaker 4: mirrors out of the or they took the sinks and

354
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 4: mirrors out of the bathrooms because homeless.

355
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 2: People were washing themselves in there.

356
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 4: So now you come out of the bathroom and there's

357
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 4: like a communal thing there out by where you get

358
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,439
Speaker 4: your coffee, like you're at an outdoor rock concert or

359
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:43,399
Speaker 4: something outside the porta potties exactly. So the Starbucks communal

360
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 4: sinks are still used to bathe right there in the open.

361
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:47,399
Speaker 2: On many occasions we've caught them.

362
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:50,119
Speaker 4: Straight up nude in the bathroom hallway with half their

363
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 4: naked bodies literally in the sink. I've been in leadership

364
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,199
Speaker 4: for Starbucks for over ten years in northern California, trust me.

365
00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 3: Wow.

366
00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:01,199
Speaker 2: And it's mostly junkie, of course it is.

367
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 4: And we put up with this in some parts of

368
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,199
Speaker 4: the country, and lots of the parts of the country,

369
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 4: this doesn't happen. I live near Portland. I assure you

370
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 4: it's not fine. We will not go downtown unarmed. Always

371
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 4: carry everywhere here. Yeah, and miss kidding brother. I could

372
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 4: not believe what I was hearing out of the NPR. Dude,

373
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:20,159
Speaker 4: and this text just to keep us level headed. This

374
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:24,239
Speaker 4: show has hit the rocks. There you go, hit the

375
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:29,720
Speaker 4: rocks doing poorly, Icey Yeah wow, played this yesterday, but

376
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:33,159
Speaker 4: in case you didn't hear it, it's pretty good. Trump

377
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 4: is closing hard on the immigration argument way too much. Well,

378
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,400
Speaker 4: they call it the immigration argument. It's a legal immigration

379
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 4: that really bothers people, or just unregulated immigration, even if

380
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 4: people end up being legal or decent people, with.

381
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:52,720
Speaker 2: Just the idea of just randomly decided no policy whatsoever.

382
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 4: It's just, however, many millions of people decide to come

383
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,240
Speaker 4: in and where they want to go is a nutty

384
00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 4: way to run a country, whoever they are. And polling

385
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 4: show sixty percent of Americans now want to deport everybody.

386
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,120
Speaker 2: Who's undocumented, which is an extraordinary thing. Right.

387
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 4: So Trump's closing hard with the immigration argument. He was

388
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,919
Speaker 4: in Aurora, Colorado the other day talking about the Venezuelan's

389
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:17,159
Speaker 4: taken over the apartment complexes. But anyway, Martha Rattits pushed

390
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:21,879
Speaker 4: back against his running mate Vance the other day and

391
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 4: this is how that went.

392
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:23,639
Speaker 2: The Center advance.

393
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 6: I'm going to stop you because I know exactly what happened.

394
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 2: I'm going to stop you.

395
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:32,439
Speaker 6: The incidents were limited to a handful of apartment CONFLX

396
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 6: apartment complexes, and the mayor said, our dedicated police officers

397
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 6: have acted on those concerns a handful of problems.

398
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,400
Speaker 2: Only, Martha, do you hear yourself?

399
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,879
Speaker 8: Only a handful of apartment complexes in America were taken

400
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 8: over by Venezuelan gangs. And Donald Trump is the problem

401
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 8: and not Kamala Harris's open border.

402
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:56,400
Speaker 3: I know it's not the Venezuelan gangs taking over apartment

403
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 3: complexes that are the problem.

404
00:21:57,840 --> 00:21:59,480
Speaker 2: It's Donald Trump saying rude things.

405
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 4: I know in the modern world, especially in social media,

406
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:08,719
Speaker 4: everybody's always owning everybody or destroying everybody or whatever right

407
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 4: that is an own though, that is a are you

408
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:15,159
Speaker 4: freaking kidding me? You just said with your own mouth

409
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 4: that only a handful of apartment complexes in a suburb

410
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,600
Speaker 4: have been taken over by violent Venezuela gangs, and you're

411
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 4: portraying that is okay.

412
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 3: Therefore I ought to shut up about it. Yeah, that's nuts.

413
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:29,640
Speaker 2: That was astounding.

414
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 3: That is the protected class speaking that is so crazy.

415
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:41,399
Speaker 4: There are forty thousand illegals in Denver, not just I

416
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 4: don't know what the number of would be. That people are,

417
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:47,200
Speaker 4: you know, moved here recently that don't speak the language

418
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:50,359
Speaker 4: or all the other things that make it difficult to assimilate.

419
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:54,120
Speaker 2: But forty thousand illegals, right, which is a lot.

420
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:56,639
Speaker 4: Denver's a big city, but not big enough to observe

421
00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 4: forty thousand illegals. And why should they a sanctuary city.

422
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,200
Speaker 4: As you're about to hear from this woman who lived

423
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:06,400
Speaker 4: in one of the apartment complexes that was briefly taken

424
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 4: over by Venezuelan gangs.

425
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:12,480
Speaker 5: I was pushed out of my apartment by gang activity,

426
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:15,680
Speaker 5: people carrying guns in the hallway and patrolling the.

427
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:16,680
Speaker 2: Grounds with guns.

428
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,159
Speaker 5: She goes on, I feel like the immedia took my

429
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:25,159
Speaker 5: videos at face value and didn't do any research of

430
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 5: their own, so they immediately said, oh, this can't be true,

431
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:32,120
Speaker 5: or this is only a few apartments. How many is okay?

432
00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,920
Speaker 5: There were six people outside my door with guns. That's

433
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 5: not counting all the other ones they used to patrol

434
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 5: the property with guns. How many gangs is okay to

435
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 5: have in Aurora? How many properties is okay to take

436
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 5: over How many people who are citizens and is paying

437
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,959
Speaker 5: their bills? Is it okay to displace good questions?

438
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 3: For Martha Raddins, this is an important principle. The classes

439
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:01,199
Speaker 3: in America are the protected class in the unprotected class.

440
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 3: Their protected class passes these policies or refuses to enforce

441
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:10,159
Speaker 3: the law, for instance, and they are protected from the

442
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:13,639
Speaker 3: repercussions of what they have done. The rest of us

443
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:17,160
Speaker 3: who live in the real world are the unprotected class.

444
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:18,120
Speaker 2: Yeah.

445
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:21,119
Speaker 4: I first heard that spelled out that clearly by Tucker

446
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:24,959
Speaker 4: Carlson years ago on this Fox show. Just Nancy Pelosi

447
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 4: and various other people who are for these sanctuary scenes,

448
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,680
Speaker 4: they don't live in neighborhoods where anything.

449
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:32,879
Speaker 2: Is changed at all at all.

450
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:37,480
Speaker 4: The music they hear, the food they eat, their schools,

451
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:41,080
Speaker 4: their hospitals, nothing has changed. So it's very easy for

452
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,560
Speaker 4: them to talk about, you know, the raising tide lifts

453
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,359
Speaker 4: all boats and all kinds of different things about assimilation.

454
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 2: And melting pot and everything. No melting pot going on.

455
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:52,919
Speaker 4: In their neighborhood. Nothing has changed at all, White rich people.

456
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 4: How many US Senators have kids in public schools? How

457
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 4: many congress people have kids in actual public schools. I

458
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 4: would like to know the numbers. It would be interesting

459
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 4: to bring in some of these people to a public

460
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 4: school and say, you see what the teacher's doing here,

461
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:08,439
Speaker 4: because I have seen it.

462
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 2: The teacher is using Google Translate on their phone.

463
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 4: So they they talk about whatever they just talked about,

464
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,640
Speaker 4: how Columbus, you know, raped the country or something. Whatever

465
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 4: they're teaching in public school priorities. Yes, in the gender

466
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,639
Speaker 4: bread person they say that in English and then they

467
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:25,879
Speaker 4: use Google Translate for their phone and do it again,

468
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 4: doubling the amount of time it takes for the handful

469
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 4: of students.

470
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 2: That don't speak English. Do they do that in your school? Oh,

471
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 2: they don't do that in your school. I'll be darned.

472
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:35,480
Speaker 2: Your super expen's in private school.

473
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 4: They don't do that.

474
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 2: Yeah it really sucks. Yeah, yeah, it's unbelievable.

475
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 4: Can we play the Martha Writings thring to get you there,

476
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:45,119
Speaker 4: just to hear that again her tone. It's unbelievable that

477
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 4: she has this tone about this topic.

478
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,159
Speaker 6: The center evans I'm going to stop you because I

479
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:50,359
Speaker 6: know exactly what happens.

480
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:51,400
Speaker 2: I'm going to stop you.

481
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 6: The incidents were limited to a handful of apartment conflicts,

482
00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:01,159
Speaker 6: apartment complexes, and the mayor said, our dedicated police officers

483
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,160
Speaker 6: have acted on those concerns.

484
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 2: A handful of problems.

485
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:08,879
Speaker 8: Only, Martha, do you hear yourself? Only a handful of

486
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:12,679
Speaker 8: apartment complexes in America were taken over by Venezuelan gangs.

487
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,880
Speaker 8: And Donald Trump is the problem and not Kamala Harris's

488
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:16,680
Speaker 8: open border.

489
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 3: And as I pointed out yesterday, the line from the

490
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:23,160
Speaker 3: police chief, our dedicated officers have responded to the concerns.

491
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 2: What does that mean?

492
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 4: Actually, I heard from who did they have on Fox

493
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 4: and Friends today?

494
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 2: Was it the police chief?

495
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,600
Speaker 4: It was somebody from law enforcement in Aurora, Colorado, talking

496
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,680
Speaker 4: about there are forty thousand illegals in Denver and they're

497
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:40,119
Speaker 4: now coming into Aurora and we can't handle it. We

498
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 4: can't handle the number of people. But Denver's a sanctuary city.

499
00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:51,199
Speaker 3: Imagine being so ideological that you approach the conversation and

500
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,200
Speaker 3: the problem the way Martha Raddits did. When you have

501
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,400
Speaker 3: law enforcement saying we're overwhelmed, you have school officials saying

502
00:26:57,480 --> 00:26:58,280
Speaker 3: we're overwhelmed.

503
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,600
Speaker 2: What's it like to live in that world?

504
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:07,760
Speaker 4: Well, I think if I lived in a DC suburb

505
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 4: or wherever she lives, gated community that hasn't changed a

506
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 4: bit in the forty years I've lived there. You know,

507
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 4: I don't know what my point of view would be.

508
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,160
Speaker 3: Well, for what it's worth, we decided a long time

509
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 3: ago that we were not going to attempt to infiltrate

510
00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 3: and hobnob with the halls of power because it changes

511
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 3: you and the way you do this job.

512
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 2: And so we're delighted to be outsiders.

513
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 4: And I heard somebody make the point. So you had

514
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 4: violent Venezuelan gangs attempt to take over a handful, just

515
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,920
Speaker 4: a handful, apartment companies, just a handful. But what about

516
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:50,960
Speaker 4: convenience stores, community centers, all kinds of different things.

517
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 3: You got trend de agua robbing people in New York

518
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 3: City now growing problems, sending teenagers out on the streets

519
00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 3: to rob.

520
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a handful of New York cities.

521
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:07,640
Speaker 4: What So, if Trump wins, and right now it looks

522
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:09,560
Speaker 4: like he's going to I remember Mark alpern Wright in

523
00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 4: this a year ago about the immigration thing when it

524
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:14,959
Speaker 4: was really at its height and at that point getting

525
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:18,159
Speaker 4: no national attention, him saying, if Trump wins, this is

526
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,879
Speaker 4: going to be why the dominant media's willingness to overlook

527
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 4: this topic.

528
00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:24,200
Speaker 2: Right right.

529
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,320
Speaker 3: Oh, And it's becoming more and more clear, to my

530
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:32,920
Speaker 3: delight that the transgender lunacy is becoming a serious sleeper issue.

531
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:37,919
Speaker 3: It's changing political races across the country because for the

532
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 3: millionth time, the way normal people perceive these issues is

533
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 3: so vastly different than the media's take on them. And

534
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 3: if you get too caught up in media, you start

535
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 3: to think, Wow, I must be an outlier.

536
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:55,240
Speaker 1: You're not friends, You're not Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty

537
00:28:56,040 --> 00:29:02,280
Speaker 1: Armstrong and Getty Show, The Armstrong and Getty Show.

538
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:09,800
Speaker 4: So I was talking to a babysitter I was interviewing

539
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 4: yesterday and we got into this topic. This is not

540
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 4: anything we haven't discussed before, we haven't thought about. She

541
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 4: has a political science major, so we got into a

542
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:21,520
Speaker 4: little bit of a conversation about that, and I just

543
00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:23,240
Speaker 4: was asking, do you think things will ever go back

544
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 4: to where this isn't everybody's life all the time following

545
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,880
Speaker 4: politics constantly and pendulum or continuum that sort of stuff.

546
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 4: Kind of interesting, But I said, you know, you're you're

547
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 4: you're young, so you don't know this. But people didn't

548
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 4: used to talk about politics all the time. In fact,

549
00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:41,120
Speaker 4: we almost never talked about it. I said, you know,

550
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 4: when I none of my and I hadn't thought about

551
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 4: it because she's in college.

552
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,680
Speaker 2: All my friends in college, I don't have the slightest

553
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 2: idea what their politics were. Had the slightest idea never

554
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 2: came up.

555
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 4: I couldn't. I couldn't tell you now, people that I

556
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 4: hung out with all the time what their politics were.

557
00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 4: All beer were our politics. And she looked at me

558
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:02,240
Speaker 4: like I was crazy. She said, wow, I said, and girlfriends.

559
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 4: I'm thinking of all the girlfriends I had in college,

560
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,280
Speaker 4: I don't have any idea what their politics were or

561
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 4: their parents.

562
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 2: And she said, that's crazy.

563
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 4: She said, that's the first question you ask somebody when

564
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:18,479
Speaker 4: you meet them, now, the first question. Wow, wow, And

565
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 4: we both couldn't believe each other's life experience around this.

566
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 4: I have no idea what any of my girlfriend's political

567
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 4: positions were.

568
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:31,360
Speaker 2: Because we never discussed it. And who cares? And who cares?

569
00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 3: I like it when you when we spay and spend

570
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 3: time together and talk, now one thing you do.

571
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:38,840
Speaker 2: I love when you do that. But I don't care

572
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 2: whether you're republic my grand uh that's perverse.

573
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 3: It's absolutely perverse, and it speaks to a couple of a.

574
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 2: Handful of things. They can't be good.

575
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,600
Speaker 3: Well, there are books written about this stuff, but it's

576
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,880
Speaker 3: the omnipresence of government in our lives, in the decay

577
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 3: of our other social institutions that gave our lives meaning

578
00:30:57,280 --> 00:30:59,120
Speaker 3: and a sense of belongingness.

579
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,040
Speaker 4: Right, And I was thinking, okay, so that's fine if

580
00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:06,920
Speaker 4: you're a lefty, and the first question is always you

581
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,120
Speaker 4: know what a who do you vote for? What's your politics?

582
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 4: Because you can, you know, be out and proud and whoever.

583
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:13,719
Speaker 4: The girl you're talking to, I'm thinking about myself as

584
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 4: a guy. The girl you're talking to is almost the

585
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 4: same as you, guaranteed. But what if you're not, you

586
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,280
Speaker 4: either have to lie or not date anybody or have

587
00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 4: any friends.

588
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 2: I guess that is correct, Yes, absolutely correct.

589
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, wow, you know to that end, we don't have

590
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 3: much time, but I can squeeze this.

591
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 2: In recent polling shows.

592
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 3: Married men are fifty nine to thirty nine Republican fifty

593
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 3: nine to thirty nine. Married women are fifty six to

594
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 3: forty two Republican. Unmarried men are fifty two forty five

595
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 3: Republican unmarried women are sixty eight thirty one Democrat. The

596
00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 3: Democratic Party is has become the party of unmarried women,

597
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 3: and to some extent, either low te males or those

598
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,920
Speaker 3: who are just so desperate to have a woman that

599
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 3: they pretend to be Democrats. I don't know, but that's shocking.

600
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 3: So Taylor Swift's endorsement, for instance, how could that be

601
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 3: a surprise to anyone that's like her entire constituency. Oh

602
00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 3: and it's worth also mentioning The New York Post had

603
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:27,440
Speaker 3: an interesting piece the other day pointing that over the

604
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:32,280
Speaker 3: last eight years, especially the last eight years, women have

605
00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 3: become much much more left wing than they were. So

606
00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 3: it's not just that they're left, they're way more left.

607
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 2: So this is an interview woman on the street.

608
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:50,480
Speaker 4: It's you could accuse us of not picking here of

609
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 4: where you just pick a random weirdo and then act

610
00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 4: like it represents everybody. But I think this does represent

611
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:00,440
Speaker 4: a fair number of people. This is in Oakland. This

612
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:02,760
Speaker 4: is a woman who happens to be African American. I

613
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:07,000
Speaker 4: think it's a germane to the discussion. Uh, And what's

614
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 4: absolutely one way.

615
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:10,840
Speaker 3: I think it's a funny you should say Germaine the

616
00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 3: day after Tito passed.

617
00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 2: That is funny Jackson five reference.

618
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 5: There.

619
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 4: This black woman feels like Target, who was getting a

620
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 4: robbed blind in Oakland and probably will end up closing

621
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 4: its doors the way Walgreens has and a whole bunch

622
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 4: of other businesses almost certainly was explaining why it was justified.

623
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:32,400
Speaker 9: And here she goes personally, I don't look at a crime.

624
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:35,280
Speaker 9: If you're going into Target, a multi billion dollar company

625
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 9: and stealing clothes, it's not a crime.

626
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 2: Your resource not a crime. Hell no, it's your resourceful.

627
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 2: You're homeless.

628
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 10: That's where we disagree.

629
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:43,520
Speaker 2: I think you been you've been displaced. I mean because

630
00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:44,480
Speaker 2: you're white and I'm black.

631
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:48,120
Speaker 9: There's a whole nother socioeconomical piece.

632
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:49,520
Speaker 2: That I have never had access to.

633
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 9: So you can go into any single place and put

634
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 9: your name on a piece of paper applied for that job.

635
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 9: You're not worried about if your name sounds too black.

636
00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:58,720
Speaker 9: You're not worried about if when you show up you

637
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 9: got to do something with your lock because inappropriate.

638
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 4: Okay, So she is justifying the stealing lots of clothes,

639
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:09,200
Speaker 4: for instance, from Target, and she goes on.

640
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:13,319
Speaker 2: Target enslaved my ancestors a year ago? Are Target? What

641
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:13,840
Speaker 2: a target?

642
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 9: Do we really want to break down every single system

643
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:21,319
Speaker 9: that has truly impoverished our community, enslaved us, taking money

644
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,799
Speaker 9: from our families and then displaced us. As if now

645
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 9: we're the burdens of this entire city that was once

646
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 9: forty percent of black.

647
00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:29,000
Speaker 10: UHM. But what a target do? And at what point

648
00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 10: do we not uphold any values when we lead to

649
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:31,399
Speaker 10: At what.

650
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 2: Point do we not uphold Target?

651
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:35,440
Speaker 9: So then give back all of their funds that they

652
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:36,560
Speaker 9: can easily give back.

653
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:38,680
Speaker 10: But if we steal from Target, then we still from CBS.

654
00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 10: Then we steal from Walmart, and then the Walmart's still

655
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:42,400
Speaker 10: and then we have but we built it, don't know.

656
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:44,040
Speaker 10: But then all we have our corner stores in Oakland

657
00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:46,040
Speaker 10: when we run out all these large businesses, right.

658
00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 9: Our corner stores are mom and pop's own, they're black

659
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 9: and brown own.

660
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:50,440
Speaker 2: We don't steal from our corner stores.

661
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 10: But we could rock into Walmart's in Chicago.

662
00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:54,240
Speaker 2: Okay, they're gone.

663
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 10: Why are they gone? People stealing from Walmart?

664
00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,440
Speaker 9: Why did Walmart come into an urban city already and

665
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 9: displaced thousands of black people in an area where we

666
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 9: needed housing first. Once we have housing, you can sustain

667
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:05,239
Speaker 9: yourself from there on.

668
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:10,760
Speaker 3: In ball Mark, you cannot reason with these people. She's

669
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 3: actually a pretty good spokesperson for critical race theory and

670
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,200
Speaker 3: in some of the allied theories. He's just there's no

671
00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 3: winning in argument. She hasn't come at you to like

672
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 3: reach some sort of understanding or compare notes. Her words

673
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 3: are weapons, that's all. She just wants to tear down

674
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:30,040
Speaker 3: the system.

675
00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:32,160
Speaker 4: So how many of the people like going into a

676
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,719
Speaker 4: target and robbing them blind probably will drive them out

677
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,560
Speaker 4: of Oakland in the same way that Walmart was driven

678
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:40,000
Speaker 4: out of Chicago. How many of the people going there

679
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 4: and Robin or are they just or is it just

680
00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:45,600
Speaker 4: as simple as what you can get stuff in there

681
00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:47,920
Speaker 4: and nobody's going to arrest you. I'm in It might

682
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 4: just be that there's.

683
00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:49,920
Speaker 2: A lot of that.

684
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 3: I'd ask her, Hey, sweetheart, how about the grocery stores

685
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,600
Speaker 3: that have been driven out of all these neighborhoods, And

686
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:58,359
Speaker 3: then everybody moans about a food desert and how that's

687
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,800
Speaker 3: racist and the rest of it. They can do business

688
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:02,359
Speaker 3: because y'all steal too much.

689
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:04,840
