So Siria has lost their evil 7 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:34,040 Speaker 3: dictator family, thank god. And we have nine hundred troops there. 8 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 3: And we talked to a couple of people today, two 9 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 3: of our favorite military analysts about that. And if you 10 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:40,599 Speaker 3: want to hear that, check in on hour two an 11 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:43,920 Speaker 3: hour three to see their opinions on all that sort 12 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:48,000 Speaker 3: of stuff. Daniel Penny is free and clear. Now, if 13 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:52,600 Speaker 3: you were following that trial, that's interesting. I actually was 14 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 3: on a jury that appeared to be heading for being 15 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 3: a hung jury. But then the equipped team won and 16 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 3: so for a while they went to the judges and said, 17 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 3: we can't find a verdict. He said, get back in there, 18 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 3: you bastards, and they did, and finally the we gotta 19 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,960 Speaker 3: equitum crowd overcame the we gotta convictim crowd. 20 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 1: And we don't know whether it was eleven to one 21 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: or six to whatever. 22 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 3: But updated in the New York Manhunt, a person fitting 23 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 3: the suspects. Description was found out of McDonald's and Altoona, 24 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 3: Pennsylvania and taken into custody. A source as a person 25 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 3: has a similar gun to one being used in the 26 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:29,199 Speaker 3: deadly shooting which you've been following. 27 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 1: Is a very very unique gun. So I think this 28 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: is the person. Oh yeah, I haven't really followed the 29 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: gun angle. 30 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it's a really specific gun for euthanizing animals. 31 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 3: It had a silencer on it. Wow, and I've heard 32 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 3: the silencer part. But yeah, anyway, so it sounds like 33 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 3: they got the guy, and I feel like there's one 34 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 3: more to uh update you on, but I remember what 35 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 3: it was. 36 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: I'll think of it later. Yeah, that's why I always 37 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: used mundane guns for my dirty work. Uh. So, let's 38 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: to get to this hour including jay z roped into 39 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 1: the whole. Diddy is a perv thing the gray to Mogo. Well, 40 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 1: we'll take a quick look at that. I got a 41 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 1: lot of good stuff. But so Kevin Kylie, congressman from 42 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: Northern California. Many Northern Californians know him. He's been part 43 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 1: of the loyal opposition in the state legislature for a 44 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: long time. He is an absolutely righteous, down to earth, 45 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: common sense conservative guy who represents the millions and millions 46 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: and millions of Californians who are indeed conservative, moderate to conservative. 47 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 1: It's a big red state with a couple of blue blotches, 48 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: like so many states, especially with coasts. But Kevin took 49 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: to the House floor the other day to take on Gavy. 50 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 1: Newsom's ridiculous calling a special session to trump proof California 51 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: to make sure we predict California values one of the 52 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 1: most jivy and transparent parent maneuvers I've ever seen. As 53 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: as Gavy is lusting for the presidency like he's lusted 54 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: for all the women in his life. 55 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 2: We're so all falls short sometimes. 56 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 1: Was there any need to go there? That was That 57 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 1: was the soft version of that. Okay, I almost brought it. 58 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: That was the That was the easy going version of 59 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 1: that thought. That was in my head. All right, what 60 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 1: the hell. 61 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 3: Is going on? 62 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 1: You can handle the truth anyway. This is Kevin Kylie. 63 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: It's a couple of minutes worth. Kali Unicornian's delight in 64 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: this and non cal Unicornians who, as we always say, 65 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: you have these policies being pitched in your state house 66 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: right now or being taught in your school's arm yourself 67 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 1: against them? 68 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 4: Kevin Kyleie, what exactly is the governor aiming to protect? 69 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 4: Is it California's national lead when it comes to homelessness, 70 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 4: the fact that we have half the unshell are homeless 71 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 4: in the entire country? Is that what Governor Newsom is 72 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 4: aiming to protect. Is it our highest in the nation 73 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 4: poverty rate? Is he looking to protect our lead when 74 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 4: it comes to poverty? Or is it when it comes 75 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 4: to retail crime? Does he want to maintain the number 76 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 4: one record for the worst retail crime in the country, 77 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 4: or the number one spot when it comes to anti 78 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 4: business regulations, or when it comes to frivolous lawsuits, or 79 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 4: when it comes to unemployment. Actually, we're now only second 80 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:29,919 Speaker 4: worst in the country when it comes to unemployment, So 81 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,279 Speaker 4: perhaps his protective measures are aiming us to get aiming 82 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 4: to get us back in the lead. Is he looking 83 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,839 Speaker 4: to protect our standing as the worst state in the 84 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 4: country when it comes to an increase in wages? Wages 85 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 4: of stagnated in California more than any state in the country. 86 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 4: Or when it comes to restrictions on workers and the 87 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 4: right to earn a living. Is he looking to make 88 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 4: sure that California maintains its lead in gas prices well 89 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 4: above the price of gas in any of the other 90 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 4: forty nine states. Well, we know he's looking to do 91 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 4: that because his own cardboard just passed regulations that are 92 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,479 Speaker 4: going to raise gas prices about sixty cents a gallon more. 93 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 4: Is he looking to protect our standing as number two 94 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 4: in the country and housing costs, number two in the 95 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 4: country in water bills, number three in the country in 96 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 4: energy and electricity costs, number three in the country in inequality, 97 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 4: number one in the country when it comes to income taxes, 98 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 4: certainly wants to protect California's lead in that respect. Does 99 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 4: he want to protect our number one in the country 100 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,679 Speaker 4: budget deficit that was reported last year, Or are standing 101 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 4: third in the country in road disrepair? Or maybe it's 102 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 4: the fact that California has the highest illiteracy rate in 103 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 4: the entire country. Perhaps that's what the value that Governor 104 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 4: Newsom is aiming to protect. 105 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 2: Or relatedly, the fact that we are. 106 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,159 Speaker 4: Second out of the fifty states when it comes to 107 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 4: educational inequity. If we were still in the COVID days, 108 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 4: he'd certainly be looking to protect our national lead when 109 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 4: it came to school shutdowns, business shutdowns. 110 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 2: And COVID mandates. We know that he's looking to. 111 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 4: Protect our national lead when it comes to illegal border crossings. 112 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 2: For the first time in the nineties. Over the last year, the. 113 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,919 Speaker 4: Highest level of illegal border crossings have been in the 114 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 4: San Diego border sector, because he's stood by California's standing 115 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 4: as a sanctuary state when it comes to funding for 116 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 4: illegal immigrants. Surely he's looking to protect our lead there 117 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 4: as California is the only state in the country that's 118 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 4: offering free medicaid to those who are here unlawfully. And 119 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 4: most certainly, we know the governor is looking to extend 120 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 4: California's four peete in leading the nation in one way 121 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 4: U haul rentals and is looking through his protective special session. 122 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,799 Speaker 2: I'm sure to make that a five pepe. 123 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 1: Wow. That is quite the laundry list. Wow, you're working 124 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: him like the light bags a c a circuit. It'sock 125 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 1: at a cicket. That is rough. Yeah, yeah, hey, you know, 126 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 1: and all that's legit. Kevin is a careful man. But 127 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 1: my only question out of that was third in energy 128 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: and electricity costs, where the poor sons of bitches who 129 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: were paying more? Seriously is it Hawaii, maybe gotta be 130 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: something like that. But who's paying more than California for 131 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: electricity home of the four figure electric bill per month? Yeah, 132 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 1: that's good, that was good, Kevin. Way to bring it, brother. 133 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 3: Before we take a break, like to say congratulations to 134 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 3: the Big ten champ Oregon Ducks. 135 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 1: I don't even know. 136 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 3: I don't even know what college football is anymore. But 137 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 3: they announced the playoffs, so first time ever. You know, 138 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 3: it was just a few years ago that there were 139 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 3: no playoffs whatsoever at college football, which was stupid. 140 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 1: For a century. 141 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 3: They'd play a season and at the end of the year, 142 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 3: they'd vote on who they thought the best team was, 143 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 3: which was just a dumb way to do it. Finally 144 00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 3: got a playoff. Then it was just a one and 145 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 3: two team, but then every time it was a how'd 146 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 3: you pick those as one and two? What about this 147 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 3: undefeated team over here? Okay, so they expanded, Well, now 148 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 3: it's expanded clear to its twelve teams. There'll be eight 149 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 3: teams that play first, and then you get the winners 150 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 3: and then they'll play the other four get a first 151 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 3: round by kind of like the NFL. There's still arguments 152 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 3: over who didn't get in but you know, at least 153 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 3: there will always be. But at least with twelve, you're 154 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 3: not leaving out any obvious people. Probably interesting thing is 155 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 3: that first round you actually get to play at home 156 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 3: if you have the right record, which that has not 157 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,840 Speaker 3: been the history of college football either. It's always been 158 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 3: a neutral location. So that'll be fun for some of 159 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:38,679 Speaker 3: those big schools. I don't know if this is going 160 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 3: to kill college football or you know, it'll just take 161 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 3: a while to get used to it or not. 162 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. Certainly, all a lot of the big 163 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: rivalries are gone. There are huge changes in college footballs 164 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 1: football going on right now, including the name image and 165 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:57,079 Speaker 1: like this, paying players, the transfer portal where they transmits 166 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: teams are in. 167 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 3: The middle of the season between this past season in 168 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 3: the playoffs. 169 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I know it's crazy, but I will tell you 170 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 1: this from experience.

Yeah, 235 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 1: I find that hurt to believe. What was all the 236 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: giggling there between the two of them. 237 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 3: I'll tell you what it is. I used to watch 238 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 3: Charlie Rose every night. I really wish it was still on. 239 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 3: I love that show. But he tried so hard with 240 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 3: like young cool people, to act like he was young 241 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 3: and cool even though he was old and very not cool. 242 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 3: That sort of thing happened a lot, just like a 243 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 3: weird misplaced laughter to try to seem like he's on 244 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 3: their left. 245 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right. Well so anyway, and he was hinting 246 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 1: at she Look, she's obviously a very beautiful woman, and 247 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 1: he's surely you noticed that first. Blah blah blah whatever. 248 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: But so he's being accused of drugging and raping a 249 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 1: thirteen year old girl with Sean Diddy Combs woirty And 250 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 1: this one. 251 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 3: Is completely different crime than seventeen. I mean, they're both 252 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 3: crimes and should be but thirteen, Wow, that's a kid. 253 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yes, so certainly emotionally, no matter the state 254 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 1: of their sexual development. But so, and that's one of 255 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: a number of suits that have popped up now since 256 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 1: Diddy got busted and it's become clear that he and 257 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 1: many people close to him were engaged in some pretty horrendous, exploitive, 258 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 1: drug fueled, sometimes compulsory, compulsory sex stuff. Now, this suit 259 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 1: accuses Combs of raping a teenage girl alongside an anonymous 260 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 1: celebrity referred to as celebrity A at an after party 261 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 1: following the two thousand MTV Video Music Wards in New 262 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:25,679 Speaker 1: York City, So we're talking twenty four years ago. The 263 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:30,559 Speaker 1: suit was amended Sunday, specifically naming mister Carter aka jay 264 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: Z as the celebrity involved, and also said there was 265 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 1: a female celebrity not named looking on. So I don't know. 266 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:44,679 Speaker 1: There are a couple of things that are true at 267 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 1: the same time. Number one, there is a payday to 268 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 1: be had now in filing lawsuit and maybe getting it 269 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,959 Speaker 1: settled just to make all this stuff go away, because 270 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: jay Z is extremely deep pockets in an actual billionaire. 271 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 1: Well right, at the same time, and we've seen this 272 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: before for a very long time. You dare not go 273 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: up against him because nobody would believe you. There could 274 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 1: be terrible repercussions or vengeance or whatever. But now that 275 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: the cracks in the facade have appeared, people are coming 276 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: forward with legitimate maybe allegation, So it's very, very difficult 277 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: to say what's legit. 278 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 3: We can't go back twenty four years, can you? That 279 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 3: seems a lot to me. Yeah, I know what you're saying. 280 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 1: But anyway, the reason that Charlie Rose clip is semi 281 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 1: relevant is. 282 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 3: Us who would have young women of age. We'd have 283 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 3: them come to his house to watch videos of his show, 284 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 3: which is like the lamest come on ever, and then 285 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 3: he would come out in his robe with no clothes on, 286 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,040 Speaker 3: open and take a shower. 287 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: In one of them to see whether they were a 288 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 1: game or not. Yeah, anyway, So I came across a 289 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 1: different description of mister Z and his life that pointed 290 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 1: out that, like each one of his serious girlfriends, he 291 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: started seeing when they were very very young. Beyonce was 292 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 1: twelve years as Junior I said ten earlier, so he 293 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 1: was twenty eight when she was sixteen. Now, they have 294 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 1: at various times claimed that no, they didn't start dating 295 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 1: until she was eighteen, But the story keeps changing and 296 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 1: people are a little suspicious. And he was with Aliyah 297 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 1: is that her name, got with her when she was 298 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: a teenager. Then there was another girlfriend, and you know, 299 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 1: when he was in his mid twenties got with her 300 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 1: when she was a teenager. So I don't know about you, 301 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 1: and I have no idea of the validity of any 302 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 1: of this, obviously, the idea that when I'm in my 303 00:15:56,440 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 1: early mid late twenties, I just keep ending up with teenagers. 304 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 1: That's a little weird. 305 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 3: It is. Yeah, once, I don't know, you can look 306 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 3: a sideways at that, But multiple times, come on, dude, 307 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 3: how come all your girlfriends are under eighteen, barely out 308 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 3: of childhood. 309 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: You haven't run into any nice twenty five year olds 310 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 1: at all. Oh, anyway, again, I don't know. That's sad 311 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 1: that all evidence is not proof. That to me suggests 312 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 1: he has a proclivity for very young women. Yeah, but 313 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. 314 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 3: I gotta believe he cuts a check and this goes 315 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 3: away whether he did it or didn't do it. 316 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 1: One of the best parts of living a reasonably moral 317 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: life is the simplicity of it. It's so easy. God, 318 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 1: it admite. 319 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,800 Speaker 3: It be harder if you're super wealthy and famous though, 320 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 3: and sing yes, yes, it'd be very handsome. O oh 321 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 3: for four a Nike, What are you gonna do? Is 322 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 3: it as big as Berlin Wall falling? Some people have 323 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 3: said it is the fall of Syria over the weekend, 324 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,120 Speaker 3: certainly shakes up the Middle East. We'll talk a little 325 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 3: bit about that coming up, among other things. 326 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:13,959 Speaker 1: Armstrong and Getty. 327 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 7: I think military analysts are going to focus initially on 328 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 7: what the hell happened here so fast? And it's kind 329 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 7: of a combination, right, It's corruption and conscription difficulties, long 330 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 7: running fuse and Siria. As David says, it's also the 331 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 7: distraction of Russia tied up in Ukraine and Iran flattened 332 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 7: by Israel. And then thirdly, let's not underestimate the rise 333 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,720 Speaker 7: of a charismatic leader. I think a lot of folks 334 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 7: are getting to know a Bu Muhammad al Jilani learned 335 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,440 Speaker 7: that name, and we'll see. 336 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:58,880 Speaker 3: Where this goes, whether it's Louis the sixteenth or Bashar Alissade. 337 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 3: I think you got things under control to the moment. 338 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 3: You don't in these revolutions, it would seem apparently all 339 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 3: the action happens under the ability to see it, and 340 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:14,400 Speaker 3: then all of a sudden they fall. 341 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:18,440 Speaker 1: Right, I'm reminded of the predictions that the Afghanistan government 342 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 1: would last for at least a couple more years. No, 343 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 1: when it goes, it goes quickly. Yeah, that sure does. 344 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,959 Speaker 3: Uh So. Bashar al Sad, who is running Syria is 345 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,199 Speaker 3: living in Moscow with his wife right now because he 346 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 3: fled the country or he would have been brutally murdered, 347 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 3: which I wish would have happened, because he is an awful, 348 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:37,879 Speaker 3: awful guy. He was running the civil war for the 349 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 3: past what is a dozen fourteen years, in which half 350 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:44,679 Speaker 3: a million of his own country people died. That's nearly 351 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 3: the number we had died during our civil war with 352 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 3: a much larger population than they've got in Syria. So 353 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 3: I mean, that's a lot of dead people. And he 354 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,399 Speaker 3: did all that with the help primarily of Russia but 355 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 3: also of Iran to be able to kill people and 356 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 3: just an awful human being. But what's going to replace him? 357 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:10,439 Speaker 3: That's always a question with revolutions. Very seldom does a 358 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,919 Speaker 3: revolution happen and then you get like some sort of 359 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 3: benevolent governing body takeover and things calm down. I mean, 360 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:21,160 Speaker 3: like almost never. 361 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:23,440 Speaker 1: Does that happen. Yeah, most of the time, opposite, the 362 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 1: opposite of that. And then inevitably, after the revolution the 363 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 1: revolutionaries start killing each other for a prolonged period of 364 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 1: time too, bringing more chaos and horror. Yeah, sometimes it 365 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:35,919 Speaker 1: settles down eventually, but it's a gamble. 366 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. 367 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:36,880 Speaker 1: That was James. 368 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 3: Travitas, you just heard from former NATO commander and he 369 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 3: actually talked about that on MSNBC this morning. He said, 370 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 3: what unites various factions when you overthrow a king or 371 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 3: a dictator or a government is we want to overthrow 372 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,919 Speaker 3: these people as soon as they're overthrown, though all of 373 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 3: your differences all of a sudden matter a lot. And 374 00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 3: the current leader of the opposition group, this rebel leader, 375 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 3: Mohammed what's his name, who gave a speech in the 376 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,720 Speaker 3: most important mosque in Syria and Damascus yesterday. He gave 377 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 3: a very good speech about wanting to allow everybody to 378 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,640 Speaker 3: participate in this is the dawn of a new era. 379 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 3: And he's distancing himself from al Qaida. The United States 380 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,720 Speaker 3: currently has a ten million dollar bounty on his head 381 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 3: because we see him as the same way we see 382 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 3: ISIS or al Qaeda. But here's the latest today on that, 383 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,399 Speaker 3: which I find very interesting. The latest reporting. This is 384 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,879 Speaker 3: from Josh Rogan's Twitter feed and we really like him. 385 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 3: From the Washington Post.

HTS 387 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 3: is the main rebel group. 388 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:45,080 Speaker 1: Not to be confused with BTS. Is that the K 389 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 1: pop group BTK. Now that's the bound torture Killer Killer 390 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:52,119 Speaker 1: from No, that's a different thing. Here's the state of 391 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 1: affairs on day one. 392 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:57,479 Speaker 3: Central Bank operating commercial banks reopen Thursday. Do you remember 393 00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 3: when we went into Iraq and overthrew Sadam Hussein. Weren't 394 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 3: nothing working the next day or for a very long time. 395 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 3: Everything got looted, destroyed everything. We weren't able to keep 396 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:13,119 Speaker 3: anything together. They have their bank, Their central Bank operating 397 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:17,200 Speaker 3: commercial banks reopen Thursday. Mohammad al Bashir has been appointed 398 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 3: to former temporary government by the rebels. The main rebel 399 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 3: met with Bashir and Assad's prime minister to rage a 400 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 3: power transfer. I don't remember that happening in any of 401 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 3: these revolutions either, where there's some sort official power transfer 402 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 3: with like paperwork and will and peace. Aleppo Airport to 403 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,199 Speaker 3: resume domestic flights later today. 404 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:40,640 Speaker 1: Wow. 405 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:44,400 Speaker 3: State employees told to return to work. Government officials say 406 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 3: women free to wear what they wish, harmed to journalists 407 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 3: punishable by prison, General amnesty to all Syrian Middle military conscripts, 408 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 3: as opposed to hunting them down and killing them all. 409 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 1: Because they're just poor sons of guns who got hired 410 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 1: by the military. So who knows. 411 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:03,119 Speaker 3: But I don't remember this happening in well, I know 412 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 3: it didn't happen in Iraq or Afghanistan, or Egypt or 413 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:08,640 Speaker 3: Tunisia or any of these other places. 414 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,959 Speaker 1: I will point out that the Taliban in Afghanistan actually 415 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: did plant a pledge to be much much more moderate 416 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,120 Speaker 1: and preserve the rights of women and girls and blah 417 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 1: blah blah, than step by step by step they went 418 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,159 Speaker 1: back on the word and back to their roots. I 419 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 1: want to be optimistic that this al Jilani guy is 420 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:30,359 Speaker 1: for real and actually intends to bring an era of 421 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 1: you know, trading minorities in religious sects with that's sects 422 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: with respect and mercy. But I gotta I gotta wait 423 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 1: and see. The guy was once you know, affiliated with 424 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:46,640 Speaker 1: al Qaeda, and alnus or front and what could. 425 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 3: Be he was because that was the best toughest gang 426 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 3: out there on his head of a side of you 427 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 3: know what you wanted possible. Or he's a hard kre 428 00:22:57,320 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 3: Islamist who believes the same thing Isis and Algaida believes 429 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 3: and the tally Ban. 430 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: We'll see. If I'm a hardcore Islamist, how do I 431 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 1: prevent these other factions from opposing me and foiling my 432 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 1: rise to power by telling them I'm not going to 433 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 1: hurt him, telling them We're going to be buddies. No, 434 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:17,639 Speaker 1: You've got nothing to fear for me. Any absolutely, one 435 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 1: hundred percent could be that guy. A lot of these 436 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:21,399 Speaker 1: Islamas so they can't get those words they ever come 437 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: out of their mouth Hamas and Hesboala and a lot 438 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 1: of the people they just they can't say anything but 439 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 1: death to all infidels, which I always thought, why don't 440 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 1: you lie? Well, see that's the thing. This guy might 441 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,879 Speaker 1: just be more sophisticated. I hope he is what he 442 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 1: claims to be. That would be an incredible gift to 443 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 1: the poor people of that region. I just I've seen 444 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: it before. 445 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 3: Even if it goes south though, I've seen a lot 446 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 3: of interviews in these various countries. I don't think I've 447 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,200 Speaker 3: ever seen one where they say I wish the dictator 448 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 3: was still in charge. They always seem to prefer their 449 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:57,680 Speaker 3: chances now versus when Sodom Hussein was running the place, 450 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,680 Speaker 3: or Momar Kadafi or there's a bunch examples. 451 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,639 Speaker 1: Right, let's give it a try. Yeah, why not? So 452 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:07,120 Speaker 1: a couple of thoughts that tie into this from an 453 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 1: interview I heard with a woman who is Irani and 454 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 1: her family left just before I think the revolution in 455 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:18,440 Speaker 1: the seventies, when the Shah was overthrown and Ayatola Coromanian 456 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:23,879 Speaker 1: is band of religious lunatic mulos came into power and 457 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,400 Speaker 1: then the Revolutionary Guard and all that she pointed out 458 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 1: to your point, Jack or whichever one of us made 459 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 1: it that the Marxists in Iran, in the universities in particular, 460 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:43,720 Speaker 1: formed this alliance with the Islamists because they both wanted 461 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 1: to overthrow the Shah, and the Marxists were convinced that 462 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:49,920 Speaker 1: the Islamists agreed with them that they needed to build 463 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:51,920 Speaker 1: a workers paradise and blah blah blah. The minute the 464 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 1: mulos got controlled, they executed all of the Marxists right 465 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: up against the wall, by the hundreds, by the thousands. 466 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:01,159 Speaker 1: Nobody's really sure. So yeah, that's the way the revolutions go. 467 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:05,199 Speaker 1: And the second thing she said that was interesting, and 468 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 1: she was more or less lecturing Americans. She said, you 469 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: can't negotiate with religious fanatics. Their only goal is the 470 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 1: glory of Allah and achieving wiping out the Jews and 471 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:22,680 Speaker 1: bringing forward, you know, Mohammad's vision of whatever. She said. 472 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 1: They will pretend to be interested in this, They will 473 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:29,360 Speaker 1: feign that they have only one goal, and you can't 474 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 1: negotiate with them. You can try to box them in, 475 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,200 Speaker 1: you can fight them, you can bribe them for a while. 476 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 1: Just know this, never forget they have one goal. This 477 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 1: all happened so fast. 478 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 3: I mean over Thanksgiving break I took notes on the 479 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,400 Speaker 3: fall of Aleppo and just never got around to really 480 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 3: talking about it, and partially because I thought, man, whatever, 481 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 3: it's probably gonna go back to Assad at some point. Anyway, No, 482 00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:00,199 Speaker 3: in two weeks, ten days, the whole country fell. Did 483 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 3: you see the videos out of the airport, and those 484 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 3: are almost hilarious. Everybody at the airport, and then people 485 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,879 Speaker 3: were starting to get and hear the word the news, 486 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:11,440 Speaker 3: and then like the people who worked at the airport, 487 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,919 Speaker 3: the TSA equivalent, they were like scanning baggage and they 488 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 3: all were looking around and they kind of got up 489 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 3: out of their chairs and started walking toward the gates, 490 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 3: then started running. Then so then the passengers started looking 491 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 3: around because the rumor was spreading so fast, and they 492 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 3: all started running. Everybody just left. Then the airport was empty, 493 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 3: and that happened all across the country. Then on TV 494 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,879 Speaker 3: you had the people, there are rumors in the streets 495 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:39,120 Speaker 3: that the military has laid down their arms. Those are 496 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 3: all Western lies. It is not true, but shar Alisade 497 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 3: is in conplete control. 498 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:46,359 Speaker 1: And that went on for a while and then all 499 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 1: of a sudden. 500 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,399 Speaker 3: He'll be addressing the nation at six o'clock night and 501 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 3: all of a sudden, this woman gets up out of 502 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:54,480 Speaker 3: her chair, walks off. This other bald hair guy sits 503 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 3: down and basically says, I, for one, welcome the ant 504 00:26:57,520 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 3: or for lords. I mean, he just sat down and 505 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,920 Speaker 3: immediately said we are now a free country, and I 506 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 3: couldn't be more excited about it. 507 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:09,359 Speaker 1: And that's how quickly it changed. Wow, Yeah, yeah, that's nuts. 508 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:12,880 Speaker 3: You remember we used to have Liz Sly on regularly, yeah, 509 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:15,359 Speaker 3: with Washington Post. I don't know who she was with 510 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 3: at the time, but anyway, she just texted this out 511 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:22,200 Speaker 3: statement on the HTS channels. They have their own TV 512 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 3: channels going right now with information it is strictly forbidden 513 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 3: to interfere with women's dress or impose any request related 514 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:33,360 Speaker 3: to their clothing or appearance, including requests for modesty. That's 515 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 3: what they're saying. Anyway, it's possible that they think, you know, 516 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:45,200 Speaker 3: we play this right, We're going to get the backen 517 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,400 Speaker 3: of the United States and the European Union and money 518 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 3: will be flowing our way in arms, and we can 519 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 3: run this country for a long time. 520 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: I hope I get to see this play out, because 521 00:27:54,320 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 1: they're one of two, well several, but at least two results. One, 522 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,120 Speaker 1: this guy is what he claims to be, and it's 523 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:06,119 Speaker 1: an incredible gift of freedom and moderation in that region 524 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 1: for the people of Syria. That's a long shot. Secondly, 525 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 1: is we get to see the playbook of the modern 526 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:17,959 Speaker 1: Islamist extremist and how they claim moderation to get the 527 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:22,639 Speaker 1: cooperation of other groups and tribes and whatever, and then 528 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: they bring the hammer down isis style, and we live 529 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:27,359 Speaker 1: and we learn one of those two things is going 530 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 1: to happen. 531 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. 532 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 3: The difference with the Taliban example you used, is they 533 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,879 Speaker 3: mean that would have been really they had shown what 534 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 3: they were for decades. This group, who's ever even heard 535 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 3: of HST or whatever. They were untild yesterday, so we'll 536 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 3: see what they're all about. 537 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. 538 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, I was telling my kids yesterday how thankful anybody 539 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 3: who lives in a organized, safe society should be that 540 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 3: they do, because it doesn't have to be that way. 541 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 3: I was watching some YouTube videos over the weekend about 542 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:06,680 Speaker 3: entropy and how it applies to in nature and rocks 543 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 3: the same way it applies to civilizations. The pulling force 544 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 3: is toward chaos. It takes a lot to keep that 545 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 3: from being that way disintegration. Yeah, speaking of which, and 546 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 3: this gladdens my heart speaking of the Mullahs in the 547 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 3: Revolutionary Guard of Iran. 548 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:28,720 Speaker 1: They are screwed and tattooed by this whole thing. They're 549 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:33,960 Speaker 1: proxies hamas Hesbelah are terribly battered. They're battered. The Israelis 550 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 1: expose them for having no air defenses to speak of, 551 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 1: and their ability to resupply Hesbelah has been seriously disrupted, 552 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 1: so they are looking weak, weak, weak. Russia is the 553 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 1: looser in this as well, which gladdens my heart too. Yeah. 554 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 3: Nettnyah who made a little speech over the weekend taking 555 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 3: a lot of credit for this having he says the 556 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 3: devastation of hesbol is what led to this, and he 557 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 3: might be right. 558 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, and indeed Russia getting bogged, don you crane as well? 559 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 1: They have a couple of important military bass in Siria. 560 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 1: I should explain that for people who don't follow this 561 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 1: all the time. 562 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, one to port won a regular military base. The 563 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 3: port very important, so we'll see what happens there. The 564 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 3: phrase you just used, which I don't approve of, for 565 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 3: the record, screwed and tattooed? 566 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 1: Where does that? Where does that phrase come from? I mean, 567 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 1: I I'm afraid to even ask that question. I don't know. 568 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:23,719 Speaker 1: It's like when I mentioned there's more than one way 569 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 1: to skin a cat in front of my nieces and 570 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 1: they reacted with horror, And it occurred to me, who 571 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:31,960 Speaker 1: is skinning cats for what purpose? How many ways do 572 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 1: you need become a popular? 573 00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 3: Say somebody had been skinning skinning cats I assume you 574 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 3: can always skin a cat. Once somebody had been skinning 575 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 3: cats same way, every day, every cat, and somebody said, look, Jim, 576 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 3: I hate to butt in. I hope I'm not overstepping 577 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 3: my bounds. But there's more than one way to skin 578 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 3: a cat. 579 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 2: Right. 580 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: You're wearing out your knife, you're nicking your thumb. Whatever 581 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 1: Jim's problems. But there's a faster, easier way. You gotta 582 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:01,959 Speaker 1: think outside the box of cats skinning. 583 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 3: I mean, if your goal is to get as many 584 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 3: skins off as many cats as pumps, right, exactly in 585 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 3: a timely reasons, right right, right, in. 586 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 1: A timely man, there are other ways. It was his point. 587 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 1: We will finish strong. Next, we need some black visialities. 588 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:26,560 Speaker 7: That's right. 589 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 2: People want to jump up and choke. 590 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 1: Us and kill us for being loud. 591 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 5: How about we do the same when they attempt to 592 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 5: oppress us. 593 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 1: Right, I'm tie it, tie it well. Hawk Newsome, the 594 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:49,840 Speaker 1: leader of New York Black Lives Matter BLM, who are 595 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 1: Marxists who want to overthrow the system. Therefore they want 596 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 1: a race war. That's what BLM has been from the beginning, 597 00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 1: calling for violence.

I mean, 605 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 3: this is the legal justice system. So you're basically unhappy 606 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 3: with the ruling, and you're calling for violence in the streets. 607 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 1: Nice in the name of communism.
