WEBVTT - The A&G Replay Monday Hour Four 0:00:07.800 --> 0:00:12.119 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 0:00:12.160 --> 0:00:15.640 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong, Joe. 0:00:15.520 --> 0:00:23.680 Getty arm Strong, and Jetti and Hee Armstrong and Getty Strong. 0:00:27.840 --> 0:00:31.440 Tag Seth said China was quote incredibly preparing for an 0:00:31.440 --> 0:00:35.640 invasion of Taiwan, with Chinese forces staging regular drills around 0:00:35.640 --> 0:00:38.360 the island and the use of force has not been 0:00:38.440 --> 0:00:39.000 ruled out. 0:00:39.200 --> 0:00:42.080 It's amazing to me what stories get attention and what 0:00:42.400 --> 0:00:46.279 stories just don't grab people's attention. But yeah, Hexath gave 0:00:46.280 --> 0:00:49.000 a speech over the weekend to our Asian partners in 0:00:49.080 --> 0:00:54.480 the Wall Street Journal version of it certainly grabbed my attention. 0:00:55.600 --> 0:00:58.279 A little quote from Hexath to be clear, any attempt 0:00:58.320 --> 0:01:01.440 by communist China to conquered time one by force would 0:01:01.480 --> 0:01:04.959 result in devastating consequences for the Indo Pacific in the world. 0:01:05.120 --> 0:01:07.720 We're not going to sugarcoat it. The threat China poses 0:01:07.800 --> 0:01:10.679 is real and it could be imminent, and saying that 0:01:10.760 --> 0:01:13.160 we will allow it, it will not happen on Trump's watch. 0:01:13.400 --> 0:01:18.000 We have repositioned some sort of anti ship killing missiles 0:01:18.520 --> 0:01:21.360 close by, to which China said, that's really really awful. 0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:22.679 You shouldn't be doing that, But. 0:01:22.640 --> 0:01:26.240 I mean, this is some serious bluster between the two 0:01:26.240 --> 0:01:28.839 most powerful countries in the world that at some point 0:01:28.880 --> 0:01:31.000 are going to go to war. I was just. 0:01:30.959 --> 0:01:34.720 Reading those rating about those anti ship munitions that are 0:01:34.720 --> 0:01:39.600 so interesting. They're mounted on remote controlled trucks. They need 0:01:39.640 --> 0:01:43.320 no humans, so somebody in a bunker far away drives 0:01:43.360 --> 0:01:47.360 these trucks around. They fire off missiles, then quickly relocate 0:01:47.920 --> 0:01:50.880 so they can't be hit by return fire. It's really 0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:57.040 quite interesting. We're positioning them in the Philippines and similar areas. Yeah, 0:01:56.560 --> 0:01:59.880 the Sabers are a ratlin, no doubt. 0:01:59.640 --> 0:02:01.160 As the Wall Street Journal rights. 0:02:01.160 --> 0:02:04.200 In recent years, China has built up the world's biggest navy, 0:02:04.560 --> 0:02:07.400 a title once held by the United States. You know 0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:09.919 who held it before the United States? Great Britain. Great 0:02:09.960 --> 0:02:13.800 Britain ruled the seas for a very long time. Then 0:02:13.840 --> 0:02:16.080 it's been US. Is it going to be China in 0:02:16.080 --> 0:02:17.880 the next century. Well, that's what China is hoping. 0:02:19.160 --> 0:02:21.880 Yeah, I'm not sure you'd like their placing of the 0:02:21.919 --> 0:02:22.800 seas anyway. 0:02:23.600 --> 0:02:24.240 I've found this. 0:02:24.560 --> 0:02:26.640 I mean, I've been on this jihad for a long time, 0:02:26.720 --> 0:02:30.320 but more and more open coverage of the fact that 0:02:31.919 --> 0:02:34.720 we the United States and the Western world in general 0:02:34.800 --> 0:02:39.240 fell for an absolutely brilliant plan by the Chinese back 0:02:39.280 --> 0:02:44.400 in the late sixties early seventies. They needed help, primarily 0:02:44.440 --> 0:02:47.520 financially in trade from the Western world, and came up 0:02:47.520 --> 0:02:51.560 with an absolutely brilliant plan. Let's pretend that we want 0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:57.280 to westernize and move away from communism at our own 0:02:57.360 --> 0:03:02.880 pace and liberalize in return for our investment from the West. 0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:06.280 And this was absolutely deliberate plan. They knew all along 0:03:06.320 --> 0:03:08.959 that it was not sincere although there have been some 0:03:09.080 --> 0:03:12.720 reformers in you know, the last several decades in China 0:03:12.760 --> 0:03:14.799 who are actually like, you know, maybe that's not such 0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:17.120 a bad idea, but then a shijin thing always comes along, 0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:20.920 and so they duped us into opening up the relationship 0:03:20.960 --> 0:03:25.960 with China, which was bad enough, but a great deal 0:03:26.040 --> 0:03:31.120 of Left America still hasn't caught on to it, and 0:03:31.160 --> 0:03:37.400 they are so motivated by the need to show openness 0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:42.200 to other cultures. There's Zeno files, as I often put it, 0:03:42.600 --> 0:03:44.640 they still haven't caught on the China as a dire 0:03:44.680 --> 0:03:46.480 threat to the United States in our way of life. 0:03:46.480 --> 0:03:52.240 For instance, on universities told the story many times. Counterintelligence 0:03:52.280 --> 0:03:54.320 people came out to a university campus said you've got 0:03:54.360 --> 0:03:58.320 a bunch of Chinese spies on the campus. University president said, 0:03:58.400 --> 0:04:02.040 get off my campus, you racists, and that attitude persists headline. 0:04:02.080 --> 0:04:05.000 Harvard has trained so many Chinese Communist officials they call 0:04:05.040 --> 0:04:07.840 it their party school. Not like party school, let's get 0:04:07.840 --> 0:04:12.680 wasted and get laid the Communist parties school. Oh that's 0:04:12.680 --> 0:04:15.320 not as good a party not nearly. Yeah, in your 0:04:15.400 --> 0:04:19.359 rank of party schools. This is something totally different, Asu, 0:04:19.480 --> 0:04:20.560 don't worry, You're safe. 0:04:20.640 --> 0:04:22.640 Who is that comedian? I wish I could remember his 0:04:22.720 --> 0:04:24.279 name because I'd like to give him credit. So funny, 0:04:24.360 --> 0:04:26.159 But anyway, he has a thing he does on a 0:04:26.240 --> 0:04:29.560 piece of paper He lists best parties. At the bottom 0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:33.839 was search party Wow. 0:04:35.560 --> 0:04:38.960 The Kennedy School of Government at Hava. It is favored 0:04:38.960 --> 0:04:43.120 by party cadres seeking career boosts. US schools and one 0:04:43.680 --> 0:04:47.000 prestigious institution in particular, have long offered up and coming 0:04:47.120 --> 0:04:50.800 Chinese Communist officials a place to study governance. Can you 0:04:50.880 --> 0:04:57.960 imagine teaching Communist party officials about governance so they can 0:04:57.960 --> 0:05:02.520 twist it into totalitarianism, a practice that the Trump administration 0:05:03.000 --> 0:05:04.800 could end with a new effort to keep out what 0:05:04.800 --> 0:05:07.560 it says our Chinese students with Communist Party ties. But 0:05:07.720 --> 0:05:11.440 for decades the party has sent thousands of mid career 0:05:11.520 --> 0:05:15.760 and senior bureaucrats to pursue executive training in postgraduate studies 0:05:15.800 --> 0:05:19.640 on US campuses, with Harvard University a coveted destination, describe 0:05:19.680 --> 0:05:22.680 as some in China as the top party school outside 0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:26.800 the country. Alumni of such programs include a former vice 0:05:26.880 --> 0:05:31.280 president and Chinese leader, Shijin Ping's top trade negotiator these days. 0:05:32.640 --> 0:05:35.120 Maybe you heard, well, we talked about it. Last week. 0:05:35.279 --> 0:05:38.000 Secretary of State Marco Rubi announced US to authorities will 0:05:38.040 --> 0:05:42.080 tighten criteria for visa applications from China and aggressively revoke 0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:44.880 visas for Chinese students, including those with connections to the 0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:48.000 Chinese Communist Party or studying in critical fields. 0:05:48.040 --> 0:05:51.680 Well, remember last week that new president of Harvard gave 0:05:51.720 --> 0:05:54.760 a big speech at the graduation ceremony talking about how 0:05:54.960 --> 0:05:57.520 we have always educated people from around the world, and 0:05:57.560 --> 0:06:01.839 we had recorded and he got a one miss ovation. Right, 0:06:02.000 --> 0:06:06.920 Because it is absolutely a requirement of being a lefty 0:06:06.960 --> 0:06:11.160 in America that you must worship all things foreign and 0:06:11.320 --> 0:06:14.080 loathe all things American and domestic. 0:06:14.160 --> 0:06:15.520 Or at least most of them. 0:06:16.400 --> 0:06:20.680 It's just it's so nakedly approval seeking and so stupid. 0:06:21.839 --> 0:06:25.320 American universities have played leading roles in shaping China's overseas 0:06:25.320 --> 0:06:27.920 training programs for mid career officials for years and years 0:06:27.960 --> 0:06:30.760 and years. Other US colleges have offered executive training the 0:06:30.800 --> 0:06:35.280 Chinese Communist officials, including Syracuse, Stanford, the University of Maryland, 0:06:35.320 --> 0:06:37.960 and Rotgers, where my dad taught many many years ago. 0:06:38.880 --> 0:06:41.360 Blah blah blah. So it's just amazing. You know, it's funny. 0:06:41.400 --> 0:06:44.400 I was thinking earlier when you were talking about and 0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:48.480 Pete Hegsuths was talking about the perhaps impending invasion of Taiwan, 0:06:49.000 --> 0:06:51.680 and they're running those millet that Chinese are running those 0:06:51.720 --> 0:06:55.679 military exercises that are like everything but pulling the trigger. 0:06:56.040 --> 0:06:59.159 And can you imagine if the United States, let the Japanese, say, 0:06:59.200 --> 0:07:03.680 in nineteen you know, put a bunch of aircraft carriers 0:07:03.720 --> 0:07:06.160 out in the Pacific and then fly planes right at 0:07:06.160 --> 0:07:06.840 Pearl Harbor. 0:07:07.040 --> 0:07:07.920 Then they said, hey, it's. 0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:10.960 An exercise, just an exercise, and then they turned around 0:07:11.200 --> 0:07:13.800 and went back to the you know, over and over again, 0:07:13.840 --> 0:07:16.440 we'd be said, no, it's okay, they're just doing an exercise. 0:07:16.720 --> 0:07:19.680 I mean, oh, good lord. And by the same token, 0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:24.880 you've got a hostile communist regime and we're educating their 0:07:24.960 --> 0:07:27.080 officials in how to govern. 0:07:27.920 --> 0:07:30.320 All right, moving along, I think the point's been made 0:07:30.520 --> 0:07:31.760 in terms of the exit speech. 0:07:31.760 --> 0:07:33.960 I'm sure we'll bring that up with Mike Lyons when 0:07:34.000 --> 0:07:37.520 we talk to him in hour three our military advisor. 0:07:38.640 --> 0:07:43.680 Listen to this, will you the economic contributions of international 0:07:43.680 --> 0:07:47.560 students that we You know, I'm primarily interested in Chinese students, 0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:52.440 but the share of international students from China is twenty 0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:55.720 three percent at Harvard, So about a quarter of all 0:07:55.760 --> 0:08:00.840 the international students are Chinese. At Harvard, it's fifth fifty percent. 0:08:01.000 --> 0:08:05.680 At Cornell, it's forty seven percent At Columbia. Wow, let's 0:08:05.720 --> 0:08:08.560 see you see Berkeley appears to be a third. 0:08:09.160 --> 0:08:10.679 Why don't you give me the number? 0:08:11.280 --> 0:08:13.760 They just it's a barograph and some of them are labeled, 0:08:13.760 --> 0:08:15.920 some of them or not. But just to give you 0:08:16.720 --> 0:08:20.440 an idea of why they put up with this, the 0:08:20.560 --> 0:08:24.920 economic contributions of international students at top us universities quote 0:08:25.000 --> 0:08:29.680 unquote top universities in twenty twenty three, Columbia got nine 0:08:29.840 --> 0:08:34.960 hundred million dollars in twenty twenty three from foreign students 0:08:35.280 --> 0:08:39.679 nine hundred million. You see Berkeley five hundred and seventy 0:08:39.720 --> 0:08:40.600 six million. 0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:42.480 Well, if you're getting half a trillion dollars, you ain't 0:08:42.480 --> 0:08:43.240 gonna want to end that. 0:08:44.559 --> 0:08:48.880 Uh is that half a trillion? Yeah, a thousand million 0:08:48.960 --> 0:08:51.640 is a billion. Well no, so it's it's almost a billion. 0:08:51.679 --> 0:08:54.040 Half a billion. What I remember what the number was 0:08:54.040 --> 0:08:56.559 now I'm confused. Columbia was nine oh three, Berkeley was 0:08:56.679 --> 0:09:01.800 five seventy six. Johns Hopkins. That's half a billion. 0:09:01.880 --> 0:09:02.800 There you go, half a billion. 0:09:02.880 --> 0:09:06.480 University of Chicago for twenty eight, Duke three eighteen, Yale 0:09:06.480 --> 0:09:09.240 two forty one, Northwestern three hundred and twenty four million 0:09:09.280 --> 0:09:15.360 dollars in a year. You know, I love capitalism, I do. 0:09:16.200 --> 0:09:17.880 Great is good, Gordon. 0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:18.440 Gecko, look it up. 0:09:20.559 --> 0:09:24.280 But when it leads you to betray your country and 0:09:24.280 --> 0:09:27.480 and risk its security, I mean and risk it. Not 0:09:27.559 --> 0:09:31.400 like some theoretical the Belgians may rise up. This is 0:09:31.440 --> 0:09:36.000 our greatest, most powerful geopolitical foe. We are we are 0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:37.360 begging for a comeuppance. 0:09:38.640 --> 0:09:47.720 Jack Armstrong and Joetty The Armstrong and Getty Show. Jack 0:09:47.840 --> 0:09:55.880 Armstrong and Joe Getty the Armstrong and Getty Show. 0:09:58.840 --> 0:10:00.480 Here's your freedom woman of the day. 0:10:01.200 --> 0:10:05.440 It's from Andre Breton, French writer and poet, co founder, 0:10:05.520 --> 0:10:08.240 leader and principal theorist of Surrealism. 0:10:08.800 --> 0:10:09.200 Oh wow. 0:10:09.920 --> 0:10:11.920 He said, there is nothing with which it is so 0:10:12.120 --> 0:10:17.560 dangerous to take liberties as liberty itself. I might rephrase 0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:23.920 that is, don't take liberties with liberty, protect it fiercely. Yeah, 0:10:24.280 --> 0:10:30.160 mailbag boot bootah. 0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:32.720 Kind of like you should believe in moderation, including uh, 0:10:32.840 --> 0:10:35.680 you know, moderation, in moderation exactly. 0:10:36.120 --> 0:10:36.760 It's one of them. 0:10:36.960 --> 0:10:41.360 Yeah, he drops a note mailbag at Armstrong Egidi dot com. 0:10:41.440 --> 0:10:46.680 Jessin Wiley, Texas rites on the Supreme Court transgender ruling 0:10:47.040 --> 0:10:51.200 the other day and New York Times magazine coverage of it. 0:10:51.240 --> 0:10:54.680 The problem isn't the transgender folks. It's that much like 0:10:54.760 --> 0:10:58.320 string theory and experimental jazz, most Americans can't grasp it 0:10:58.360 --> 0:11:02.560 with their dumb, cheeseburger brain. That's her characterization of the 0:11:02.800 --> 0:11:05.800 New York Times characterization. That's pretty funny, and I actually 0:11:05.880 --> 0:11:08.600 read part of it and I'm digging into it. I 0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:10.600 must have a cheeseburger brain because I have tried to 0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:14.360 understand string theory and quantum physics and I just cannot 0:11:14.559 --> 0:11:17.440 get it. Yeah, I gave up more or less at 0:11:17.440 --> 0:11:24.000 the beginning. So frequent correspondent JT and Liver war on 0:11:24.040 --> 0:11:26.520 the topic of a crazy, crazy Iran. Iran has sworn 0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:28.679 to destroy Israel and all the Jews. To that end, 0:11:28.720 --> 0:11:32.080 Iran has empowered and sponsored several nation states salts attack Israel. 0:11:32.559 --> 0:11:35.440 Iran sanctioned tens of thousands of missile attacks from Lebanon 0:11:35.440 --> 0:11:37.840 and Gaza, attacked there's Raeli ships at sea, and of 0:11:37.880 --> 0:11:41.480 course all the atrocities on October seventh were facilitated and 0:11:41.520 --> 0:11:45.880 condoned by Iran. Iran also pays families of suicide bombers 0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:48.880 a pension if their children killed Jews and a suicide attack. 0:11:49.280 --> 0:11:50.559 Many people would call. 0:11:50.400 --> 0:11:53.440 Any or all of these actions acts of war, but 0:11:53.520 --> 0:11:57.160 apparently Iran didn't actually declare war. In fact, Iran claims 0:11:57.280 --> 0:12:01.200 Israel's attacks are the declaration of war. What does it 0:12:01.240 --> 0:12:03.480 say about Iran that they swear to destroy Israel, get 0:12:03.480 --> 0:12:06.760 four nation states to attack Israel, culminating on October seventh, 0:12:06.920 --> 0:12:09.960 then blame Israel for daring to fight back. Question, how 0:12:10.000 --> 0:12:13.360 do you deal rationally with people and countries that are irrationally. 0:12:12.880 --> 0:12:16.080 Saw somebody pointing out yesterday that during the Iran Raq 0:12:16.120 --> 0:12:19.120 War in the eighties and which a million people died, 0:12:20.320 --> 0:12:23.600 Iran was using children to send out into minefields to 0:12:23.600 --> 0:12:25.760 try to clear minefields. That's how they would do it 0:12:25.800 --> 0:12:27.600 and tell their parents, you know, they're going to be 0:12:27.600 --> 0:12:33.280 martyred and they'll be welcome by However, that whole thing works, Yeah, 0:12:33.720 --> 0:12:35.360 after the dead, So send the kids out there to 0:12:35.360 --> 0:12:37.480 get their legs blown off, figure out where the mines are. 0:12:37.760 --> 0:12:43.400 Nice culture. Yeah, indeed, his ps is. Following your discussion 0:12:43.440 --> 0:12:46.000 about how China has so many big successful apps that 0:12:46.040 --> 0:12:48.679 are stealing data from every customer, I realized at least 0:12:48.720 --> 0:12:51.520 one day devastating way that China could use that info 0:12:51.600 --> 0:12:54.040 on a coordinated attack against the US if they ever 0:12:54.080 --> 0:12:56.400 decided to. China could take all the credit card information 0:12:56.400 --> 0:12:58.800 they're supposed to be keeping safe, secret, and secure. They 0:12:58.800 --> 0:13:01.160 could flood the e commerce world with hundreds of millions 0:13:01.160 --> 0:13:04.360 of false charges, false money transfer requests, and other general 0:13:04.400 --> 0:13:08.680 bogus financial interactions. Imagine the chaos and confusion if, along 0:13:08.679 --> 0:13:11.200 with our attacking our power, water, and communications, they also 0:13:11.280 --> 0:13:13.560 used all those credit cards to make bogus purchases and 0:13:13.679 --> 0:13:14.400 cash advances. 0:13:14.720 --> 0:13:15.839 Don't trust China, He. 0:13:15.800 --> 0:13:19.040 Says, that would be the most annoying attack that I 0:13:19.040 --> 0:13:22.120 can imagine. There are other attacks where I think I'd 0:13:22.200 --> 0:13:24.839 rather you blew up my house or my car. Then 0:13:24.840 --> 0:13:26.560 you gave me a bunch of paperwork that I'm going 0:13:26.600 --> 0:13:29.080 to have to straighten out over months. Yeah, if the 0:13:29.440 --> 0:13:32.160 water is shut off, the need to straighten out a 0:13:32.280 --> 0:13:37.600 false cash advance is fairly minor concern. But uh, let's see, 0:13:38.000 --> 0:13:42.560 uh skip around. How about side show, Bob, I haven't 0:13:42.559 --> 0:13:45.400 heard anyone mention the threat of potential terrorist attacks here 0:13:45.640 --> 0:13:47.920 linked to Iran. We've been told at large numbers of 0:13:47.960 --> 0:13:51.199 suspicious Middle Eastern citizens across the border, So wouldn't it 0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:53.240 make sense that their Iranian handlers would give them the 0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:55.720 green light if they perceive were declaring war on them? 0:13:55.880 --> 0:13:56.839 This is my fear. 0:13:57.160 --> 0:13:59.440 Brings up another question, why haven't we heard of any 0:13:59.480 --> 0:14:02.760 deporte of Middle Eastern or Chinese people? And is the 0:14:02.840 --> 0:14:05.840 DHS and their leadership being too myopic about their mission. 0:14:06.120 --> 0:14:10.800 It's a discussion for another day. Tom from SoCal Jack 0:14:10.880 --> 0:14:14.480 John the topic of Biden's military parade. I'm confused as 0:14:14.520 --> 0:14:18.160 to why the left is so outraged by Trump's military 0:14:18.200 --> 0:14:20.760 parade honoring the two hundred and fiftieth birthday of the Army. 0:14:20.960 --> 0:14:23.160 After all, Biden had his own paray to US military 0:14:23.160 --> 0:14:25.880 equipment in twenty twenty one. He just outsourced it to 0:14:25.920 --> 0:14:33.040 the tallyban in Afghanistan. Ooo, boom headshot. I still represent history, 0:14:33.160 --> 0:14:35.200 Tom and sok right in the term and that one 0:14:35.280 --> 0:14:40.600 hurt right. Jay from San Jose writes on the illegal 0:14:40.680 --> 0:14:43.640 round up question, You're missing an important point. The reason 0:14:43.760 --> 0:14:47.440 normal illegals are being rounded up in California is that 0:14:47.520 --> 0:14:50.240 California is a sanctuary state. If I just could pick 0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:52.520 up the criminals from the jails, these other raids would 0:14:52.520 --> 0:14:56.320 not be necessary. From truth to that excellent point, Jay, 0:14:56.320 --> 0:14:59.840 Thanks for the note. Powlo pointing out in the New 0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:03.720 York Times that the Sean Hubler New York Times Reporter 0:15:03.760 --> 0:15:06.160 wrote an article some rocks and bottles have been lobbed, 0:15:06.200 --> 0:15:07.640 and there were a couple of people picked up with 0:15:07.840 --> 0:15:12.240 molotov cocktails, but the quote unquote violence has been modest 0:15:12.280 --> 0:15:14.000 and local authorities have contained it. 0:15:14.600 --> 0:15:17.160 Why do you put quotes around violence? 0:15:17.520 --> 0:15:19.440 If I smash a cop in the head with a 0:15:19.560 --> 0:15:23.360 chunk of concrete. That's quote unquote violence. This to the 0:15:23.440 --> 0:15:25.440 New York Times, Shame on you. 0:15:25.200 --> 0:15:28.040 From the same crowd that used to say words are violent. 0:15:28.160 --> 0:15:32.200 Speech is violence. Put quotes around actual violence, that's troubling. 0:15:32.880 --> 0:15:35.960 Let's see this from Damon and beautiful San Jose, California. 0:15:36.040 --> 0:15:38.960 Listening to the conversation about California's idiotic new ruling on 0:15:39.040 --> 0:15:41.640 three medals, one for boys, one for girls, and ones 0:15:41.720 --> 0:15:43.880 for trans girls. Why not call out the need for 0:15:43.920 --> 0:15:46.800 equity and inclusion and insist on the fourth podium for 0:15:46.920 --> 0:15:47.760 trans boys. 0:15:48.000 --> 0:15:49.720 I can only assume that's because. 0:15:49.480 --> 0:15:53.960 There aren't any newly minted boys who ever win anything 0:15:54.240 --> 0:15:56.080 because of the obvious. 0:15:55.600 --> 0:15:58.120 Advantage males have over females. 0:15:57.680 --> 0:16:01.440 In athletics, and anybody but a lunatic knows it. 0:16:01.720 --> 0:16:03.240 That is an excellent point. 0:16:03.960 --> 0:16:07.600 Nobody elected Elon Musk a big, beautiful Jack and Joe. 0:16:08.480 --> 0:16:12.760 Maybe I haven't seen it yet. Where all those angry, 0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:15.800 concerned citizens or are yelling about Elon not being elected 0:16:16.160 --> 0:16:20.440 when you have undeniable evidence that during the Biden presidency, 0:16:20.520 --> 0:16:23.440 the duly elected president was not running the executive branch 0:16:23.480 --> 0:16:28.240 at all. He wasn't appointing powerful advisors, the powerful advisors 0:16:28.400 --> 0:16:32.320 were operating without his knowledge. But you're not worried about that, 0:16:32.400 --> 0:16:32.640 are you? 0:16:33.080 --> 0:16:35.840 Another aspect of this story that just is not being 0:16:35.960 --> 0:16:37.760 drilled down enough. 0:16:38.320 --> 0:16:42.040 Jeff with a G on Natural writes, good morning, old 0:16:42.080 --> 0:16:46.400 simple Jack and Big Freedom, longtime consumer, your glorious talk product. 0:16:46.680 --> 0:16:49.560 Minor correspondent for subjects such as killer clowns on the 0:16:49.640 --> 0:16:53.480 Edge of the Woods updates. I've also been married to 0:16:53.640 --> 0:16:58.080 a liberal in all caps for the past decade. When 0:16:58.120 --> 0:17:00.400 it comes to politics, we rarely see ida. But we're 0:17:00.440 --> 0:17:02.560 also not in our twenties, and we didn't start our 0:17:02.640 --> 0:17:05.920 journey by establishing our political beliefs. Yeah, that deside. She 0:17:06.000 --> 0:17:07.800 threw me for a loop yesterday. They were taking a 0:17:07.800 --> 0:17:09.840 trip to the zoo. She jumps in the car, had 0:17:09.840 --> 0:17:12.040 a little soft rock on the radio, and what I 0:17:12.080 --> 0:17:16.159 heard next will shock you. The better half gets in 0:17:16.160 --> 0:17:18.200 the car, here's one court of music and immediately says, 0:17:18.200 --> 0:17:21.520 throw on some Armstrong and Getty. Oh so this is 0:17:21.560 --> 0:17:26.960 a great day for America. Jents, right stuff, Wow, that's beautiful. 0:17:27.040 --> 0:17:28.480 A vesta, The Little Woman. 0:17:29.280 --> 0:17:33.960 The Jack Armstrong and Joe, The Armstrong and Getty Show, 0:17:37.760 --> 0:17:44.200 The Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty, The Armstrong and Getty show. 0:17:44.920 --> 0:17:47.240 I will go off on a screen, but it's disturbing 0:17:47.320 --> 0:17:50.639 the extent to which America's law schools have swung left, 0:17:51.119 --> 0:17:55.959 I mean way left, a lot of them. And you 0:17:56.080 --> 0:17:59.800 see the fruit of that in things like this. The 0:18:01.720 --> 0:18:04.320 do you remember the big judge election in Wisconsin that 0:18:04.400 --> 0:18:06.399 Elon Musk weighed in on and raised a bunch of 0:18:06.400 --> 0:18:09.479 money for the conservative and he got shellacked. And so 0:18:09.560 --> 0:18:13.600 because they have Supreme Court elections in Wisconsin and now 0:18:13.640 --> 0:18:18.000 they have a four to three liberal majority there, well, 0:18:18.160 --> 0:18:23.120 they ruled against a Catholic charity's nonprofit. 0:18:24.119 --> 0:18:26.919 It had to do with tax exemption and who gets it. 0:18:26.960 --> 0:18:28.440 Okay, I won't get into the fact that the case 0:18:28.480 --> 0:18:32.760 doesn't really matter, but the Wisconsin Supreme Court said, now 0:18:32.880 --> 0:18:36.640 you don't get your tax exemption. Sonia sort of mayor 0:18:37.200 --> 0:18:41.840 wrote the nine to decision for the Supreme Court, overturning 0:18:41.920 --> 0:18:47.680 the Wisconsin Supreme Court and administered a firm handed Scotus 0:18:47.680 --> 0:18:51.720 spanking to their utterly ridiculous, ridiculous ruling. 0:18:51.800 --> 0:18:53.560 There needs to be some sort of law that if 0:18:53.600 --> 0:18:57.080 you get overturned nine by the US Supreme Court, you 0:18:57.160 --> 0:18:59.840 have to disband that lower court and start over. 0:19:00.240 --> 0:19:03.159 Or you're on double secret probation, and if it happens 0:19:03.160 --> 0:19:05.719 a second time, yeah, you gotta mind your p's and q's. 0:19:08.080 --> 0:19:09.840 The State court, well, I won't read you what the 0:19:09.840 --> 0:19:14.639 state court held, but just as sodom Or writes in 0:19:14.680 --> 0:19:19.000 her opinion for the unanimous reversal that if a state 0:19:19.080 --> 0:19:22.600 law treats two religious soup kitchens differently depending on the 0:19:22.600 --> 0:19:26.000 amount of prayer and proselytizing before lunch, that's a violation 0:19:26.040 --> 0:19:28.199 of the First Amendment because they essentially said, yeah, this 0:19:28.280 --> 0:19:31.680 Catholic charity isn't doing enough Catholic stuff to earn their 0:19:31.720 --> 0:19:35.240 tax exemption. They're just doing kind of general charitable work. 0:19:36.040 --> 0:19:38.240 But she says, this is Sodo my or. It is 0:19:38.400 --> 0:19:42.000 fundamental to our constitutional order that the government maintained neutrality 0:19:42.080 --> 0:19:44.760 between religion and religion. There may be hard calls to 0:19:44.800 --> 0:19:47.400 make in policing that rule, but this is not one 0:19:48.240 --> 0:19:51.520 wow yeah again nine nothing decisions. You have to disband 0:19:51.560 --> 0:19:53.240 the lower court. That's a new I want that in 0:19:53.280 --> 0:19:53.960 the constitution. 0:19:54.560 --> 0:19:55.359 Yeah, no kidding. 0:19:55.680 --> 0:19:58.760 The Wall Street Journal editorial board summarizes with don't expect 0:19:58.760 --> 0:20:02.399 this nine O SmackDown to temper the unrestrained ambitions of 0:20:02.440 --> 0:20:05.560 Wisconsin's four left wing justices. But in the debate to come, 0:20:05.640 --> 0:20:08.320 keep in mind how they're mangling of religious liberty, lost 0:20:08.320 --> 0:20:09.639 even justice Soda Mayor. 0:20:10.240 --> 0:20:11.960 By the way, we'll get back to the biggest story 0:20:11.960 --> 0:20:14.240 in America over the last four days. Coming up kickoff 0:20:14.240 --> 0:20:17.919 hour two, we're gonna talk to a California congressman Republican 0:20:17.960 --> 0:20:21.639 who's a hardcore against the lack of order in Los Angeles, 0:20:21.640 --> 0:20:24.600 fabulous Kevin Kylie. So we'll get back into that. But 0:20:24.640 --> 0:20:28.119 I was just reading this. Tim Sanderfer retweeted, if you 0:20:28.280 --> 0:20:32.720 think it's a good idea to protest deportation by waiving 0:20:32.800 --> 0:20:35.280 the flag of the country you don't want to live 0:20:35.320 --> 0:20:39.320 in or be deported to, you're a political idiot. Yes, 0:20:39.480 --> 0:20:42.879 I would agree, you left that country. In some cases 0:20:42.920 --> 0:20:45.720 you really really don't want to go back, then don't 0:20:45.760 --> 0:20:46.560 wave that flag. 0:20:46.880 --> 0:20:50.160 That'd be my suggestion. Yeah. 0:20:50.280 --> 0:20:53.280 Yeah, So getting back kind of sort of to the 0:20:53.359 --> 0:20:55.960 law school theme, but just kind of sort of during. 0:20:55.760 --> 0:20:56.800 The whole. 0:20:58.960 --> 0:21:03.600 Well apocalypse, we ought to have a term for the 0:21:03.760 --> 0:21:09.600 post George Floyd period of time where everything that was 0:21:10.080 --> 0:21:13.399 left the extremist A lot of people were afraid to 0:21:13.520 --> 0:21:17.320 even argue against you sat there and took your euroacist 0:21:17.640 --> 0:21:22.080 training at work. You said, yes, that obvious man is 0:21:22.160 --> 0:21:24.960 a woman and should be in women's sports if he 0:21:25.080 --> 0:21:28.879 is a woman, for fear of backlash because the left 0:21:29.000 --> 0:21:31.359 was on the front foot and just whoop an ass wow. 0:21:32.520 --> 0:21:38.560 Period roughly twenty nineteen to Trump's election will be a 0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:41.919 period that historians do need to put a name on it. 0:21:42.040 --> 0:21:44.320 I mean, that was all woke. 0:21:45.040 --> 0:21:53.200 George Floyd Covid Trump January sixth insurrection, all the craziness 0:21:53.240 --> 0:21:56.320 of the twenty four election all. I mean, that's all 0:21:56.359 --> 0:21:59.040 got to fit into a period because the whole thing 0:22:00.200 --> 0:22:02.800 inflation that I don't know what they're gonna call it, 0:22:03.480 --> 0:22:05.600 but it's it's a period of time to have lived through, 0:22:05.600 --> 0:22:06.480 no doubt, as we all know. 0:22:06.640 --> 0:22:08.320 That's funny. It just clicked into my head. 0:22:08.359 --> 0:22:10.400 I refer to it over and over again in kind 0:22:10.440 --> 0:22:14.240 of cumbersome ways, and I need a quick summaration, summation. 0:22:14.320 --> 0:22:15.400 Does anybody have a suggestion. 0:22:15.480 --> 0:22:17.879 You can email us mail bag at Armstrong and Geddi 0:22:17.920 --> 0:22:20.520 dot com. Maybe we'll squeeze it into a mailbag coming 0:22:20.560 --> 0:22:20.840 out of there. 0:22:20.880 --> 0:22:23.720 It deserves a name. That period nineteen through twenty four 0:22:23.880 --> 0:22:27.800 like the Great Depression. It deserves a name, the wocopolyps. 0:22:28.359 --> 0:22:31.000 That's kind of cumbersome anyway. So all of this was 0:22:31.320 --> 0:22:32.640 along aside. 0:22:33.920 --> 0:22:39.560 Or along setup to the fact that some absolutely fundamental 0:22:39.760 --> 0:22:46.160 principles that nobody has ever argued with suddenly became taboo 0:22:46.240 --> 0:22:50.119 to say, like working hard is white supremacy, and showing 0:22:50.200 --> 0:22:52.880 up on time and blah blah blah, and the idea 0:22:53.040 --> 0:22:56.440
