00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:06,280
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

2
00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:10,880
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty arm Strong

3
00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:17,400
Speaker 1: and Getty and he Armstrong and Yetty.

4
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,040
Speaker 2: Thirty six air traffic control facilities have reported staffing problems.

5
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 2: That includes the towers at Chicago O'Hare, Dallasport War, Phoenix

6
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:34,080
Speaker 2: Sky Harbor, huge hubs for American airlines. You can also

7
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:36,559
Speaker 2: have the towers at San Francisco and lax.

8
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 1: To the list.

9
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 2: This is all on the heels of the worst weekend

10
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,640
Speaker 2: for air traffic control staffing since the shutdown began.

11
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 1: One of the main points of the awful government shut down,

12
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,680
Speaker 1: of course, the air traffic controllers situation, the flight cancelations.

13
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 1: Everybody is glad. The shutdown is just about over everybody

14
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 1: but a lot of Democrats Apparently. I don't understand how

15
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 1: a democratic center goes. Wow, we weren't really let me

16
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 1: cave now. In terms of standing up to Donald Trump,

17
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:07,039
Speaker 1: the shutdown actually gave him more power, Exhibit A being

18
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 1: what he's done with Snap and Snap benefits across the country.

19
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 1: There's no way to defend this. You are right to

20
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 1: be angry about it. I'm angry.

21
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,120
Speaker 3: Oh, I think this whole thing stinks, and I think

22
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 3: most members of the House Caucus on the Democratic side

23
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 3: are absolutely outrage Tonight, eight Democrats voted with the Republicans

24
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 3: to allow them to go forward on this continuing resolution.

25
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 1: Into my mind, this was a very very bad vote. Wow.

26
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 4: I read Mark Alpern's newsletter today, and usually he just

27
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 4: got like a whole bunch of news items, but today

28
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 4: it was a long kind of essay about the two

29
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 4: political parties and how they both have this inner turmoil

30
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 4: and it'll be interesting to see where it lands. You

31
00:01:53,480 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 4: got the Republicans with the Tucker Fuenttes, Megan Kelly, you know,

32
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 4: all that sort of stuff going on where there's a

33
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 4: lot of energy, and then Democrats all the stuff we've

34
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 4: just heard. Where got the AOC wing that wants to

35
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 4: fight fight fight Trump and you know, Mom Donnie obviously

36
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 4: and all that sort of stuff versus the older guard

37
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 4: who wants But the main takeaway was, and I just

38
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 4: saw John fetterman senator from Pennsylvania, who's got a book

39
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 4: out right now. He's doing an interview on Fox and

40
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,919
Speaker 4: he said, nobody knows who's in charge of the Democratic Party.

41
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,080
Speaker 4: Halprin's point was the biggest difference between the two parties.

42
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 4: While they do have their like energized base, doesn't agree

43
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 4: with the people at the top thing going on with

44
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 4: the Republican Party, no doubt. Where the gravity is on

45
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 4: the Republican Party. Trump is the Earth, moon and sun

46
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 4: of everything, for better or worse. And I'm not sure

47
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,640
Speaker 4: who's that has the advantage here, but one guy is

48
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 4: clearly the leader of the Republican Party. Where's Democrats? Who

49
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,680
Speaker 4: has any idea there? Is it completely leaderless?

50
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, Hey, Michael hit me with forty two speaker

51
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,519
Speaker 1: Mike Johnson if that is his real name.

52
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 3: The long national nightmare is almost coming to an end.

53
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 3: Out it was long overdue, and the irony. It really

54
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 3: was a shutdown about nothing. I mean, what we're voting

55
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 3: on is effectively exactly what we offered them several weeks back.

56
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 3: We've added some appropriations bills now, which we're in favor

57
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 3: of because it's getting us back to the regular order.

58
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: We'll take care of some other details.

59
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 3: But I don't think Chuck Schumer got anything out of

60
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 3: this other than a political show, And sadly, I think

61
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 3: that's what he was after the whole time.

62
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:39,839
Speaker 1: And Honestly, the eight Democrats, the reasonable Senate Democrats who

63
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 1: voted let's end this thing, are saying roughly the same thing.

64
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 1: It wasn't working, We weren't getting anything done. It was

65
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: just pain for no gain. And the Wall Street Journal

66
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 1: editorial board points out that the air traffic thing, I mean,

67
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 1: that would really really anger people.

68
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, we had three thousand cancellations Sunday, twenty five

69
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 4: hundred yesterday already at something like two thousand to day.

70
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: That's a lot, you know. And if folks are at

71
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: day late for a vacation or they miss a business

72
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 1: meeting or something, they're annoyed. But if you don't get

73
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: to see your kids for Thanksgiving or whatever, the grand kids,

74
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: and well you're gonna be freaking enraged anyway. But the

75
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 1: over nothing, that's the thing, exactly, the Journal says, which

76
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 1: makes the cynical fury aimed at the eight Senate defectors

77
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:30,720
Speaker 1: all the more remarkable. Pathetic, said California Governor Gavin Newsom. Rokana,

78
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:35,039
Speaker 1: another California Democrat with presidential lust, told Democratic Senate leader

79
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer to resign, even though Chuck Schumer voted against

80
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:43,480
Speaker 1: the advancing Deal, and then they make the point, and

81
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 1: I think this is a pretty astute point. These Democrats

82
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 1: know they're hiding behind their colleagues who voted to reopen,

83
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 1: who at least extracted retroactive pay for federal workers that

84
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 1: was always gonna happen, and the rehiring of those terminated

85
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 1: during the shutdown. So you had eight standing up for

86
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: the American people, so the rest could pretend to be

87
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 1: brave pugilists against Trump.

88
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, the one of the eight, one woman, said we

89
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 4: were going to be in exactly the same situation in

90
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 4: two weeks, so we might as well do it today,

91
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 4: which I think is true, right right, And they risked

92
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 4: losing what support they had, so anyway, good luck.

93
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: Beat the hell out of each other for all I care.

94
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 1: Do you think I was thinking after this as following

95
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 1: us yesterday? I think this was the last shutdown for many,

96
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 1: many men, many years, don't you think. Don't you think

97
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 1: both sides have decided now, okay, this is just we

98
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 1: get nothing out of this. The reasonable part of me thinks, yeah,

99
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: you're absolutely right. The cynical part of me thinks, give

100
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: it a month, give it a year and a half. Well,

101
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,160
Speaker 1: this is Sode'll decide it's a great idea.

102
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 4: This thing that they're going to pass is only funding

103
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 4: the government till the end of January.

104
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,720
Speaker 1: Right, so who knows? Great? Super So a couple of

105
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 1: sort of related stories and I'll touch on them real

106
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 1: quick and Jack we can talk about it if we

107
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 1: want to flush them out. I thought this was super interesting.

108
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,239
Speaker 1: One of the writers at the Free Press, the real

109
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 1: split on the right, influencers versus conservatives. It's not really

110
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 1: about ideology or Israel. This is a battle between those

111
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: who want votes and those who want views. The bomb chucky,

112
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 1: click baity, passion stoking, you know, influencers versus the politico types.

113
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,159
Speaker 1: You know, I'd like to read more of it, because

114
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,719
Speaker 1: there's plenty of bomb checking and clickbaiting by political figures

115
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 1: to these days. But yeah, yeah, step I see their point.

116
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 1: But this was to me even more interesting and easy

117
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: to understand. A lot of people have been talking about

118
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party's young men problem. It's lost tons of

119
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: support from male voters eighteen to twenty nine. Here's the

120
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: problem for Republicans. They've got a more severe version of

121
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 1: the Democrats' demographic crisis. The GOP has lost an even

122
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 1: greater shale share of female voters under thirty. And although

123
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: Democrats are struggling, albeit pitifully, writes somebody or other who

124
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: has this, this is pretty good writing Beckett Adams. They're

125
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: struggling pitifully to win back those male votes. The right

126
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 1: doesn't seem to realize the seriousness of its own predicament

127
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 1: and doesn't have any plan to fix it. And they

128
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 1: point out that women, young women vote more than young men.

129
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 1: So it's probably a bigger problem for Republicans than it

130
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 1: is even for Democrats. That makes sense. Yeah, yeah, Do

131
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: you flesh things out or flesh things out? It depends

132
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: what you're doing. If you want to have more description

133
00:07:56,320 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: than throwing us, you flesh things out, flush things out.

134
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 1: I don't know what that would refer to. But if

135
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 1: you got birds in a in a thicket and you're drawing,

136
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: shoot them, you flush them out, You absolutely flush them out. Yeah, okay,

137
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 1: and then shoot them dead, yes, because birds are evil? Well,

138
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: there they are government drones if it flies, its spies.

139
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 1: The Republican Party struggled to retain young female voters was

140
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 1: glaringly obvious again last week. Listen to this, would you please?

141
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,559
Speaker 1: Following the elections, in New York, New Virginia, New Jersey. Okay,

142
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 1: so the whole Zoran Mamdani thing. He won eighty four

143
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 1: percent of the vote among women eighteen to twenty nine.

144
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 1: Now that's ideological capture. Wow, eighty four Mona Donie in

145
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 1: New Jersey. And this one really caught my eye because

146
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:54,200
Speaker 1: Mikey Cheryl was a pretty mediocre candidate if you followed

147
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 1: that race, and Jack Chiderelli was said to be quite

148
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,960
Speaker 1: a good Republican candidate he almost won four years ago.

149
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: Mikey Cheryl won eighty one percent of the vote women

150
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 1: age eighteen to twenty nine. Eighty one percent in Virginia,

151
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 1: thoroughly mediocre governor candidate Abigail Spanberger won eighty one percent.

152
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 1: And that scumbag who fantasized about shooting people in the

153
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,440
Speaker 1: head and watching children die in their arms sold two bullets,

154
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: Jay Jones, he won seventy six percent of young women.

155
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: That's something that is a huge trend. One more note

156
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 1: afterward from Webroot and that fascinating. I almost promise that's fascinating.

157
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:46,960
Speaker 1: I almost did yesterday.

158
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:51,320
Speaker 4: Webroot's warning us all this time of year about fake

159
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 4: emails about shipping this and that. I got one from

160
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,840
Speaker 4: said it was from UPS your package has been delayed

161
00:09:58,520 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 4: or something like that, and I thought, what.

162
00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 1: I no, wait a second, I don't even have a

163
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 1: package coming. What is this? Yeah, it's easy to fall

164
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 1: for that stuff. I got to repeat what I said yesterday.

165
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 1: You thought it was tracking, it turned out to be hacking.

166
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 1: Rot to you by webroot rhymes, so you know it's

167
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:18,200
Speaker 1: true anyway. Yeah, there's so much scamming these days. It

168
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,679
Speaker 1: actually spikes spikes this time of year. That's why it's

169
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 1: the time to protect yourself with webroot total protection, real

170
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 1: time antivirus, firewall, password manager, even dark web monitoring VPN

171
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 1: all in one.

172
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 4: The dark web monitoring alone is worth it. You'll actually

173
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 4: know if your info is being traded out there in

174
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 4: the dark web. That that'd be good knowledge to have.

175
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 4: Families can protect up to ten devices and ten identities with.

176
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 1: One you know whatever you call it subscription rung. Cover

177
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 1: your fanny and protect granny with webroots. Again, it's webroot rhymes.

00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,840
Speaker 1: It's got to be true. Webroot dot com slash armstrong.

181
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,680
Speaker 1: armstrong life is Oh, I'm sorry, live a better digital

182
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:07,679
Speaker 1: life with Webroot. You can't screw up their big catchphrase,

183
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 1: I apologize, So listen to this here with y'all. In

184
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty four election, women under thirty favored the

185
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 1: lunkhead Kamala Harris over Trump by seventeen points seventeen point margin.

186
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 1: In the midterms, women in this age group prefer Democrats

187
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:34,959
Speaker 1: over Republicans by a forty six point margin. Wow, how

188
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 1: are we ever gonna get together and have relationships? Heterosexual

189
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:42,440
Speaker 1: relationships and babies? Going for this my favorite kind?

190
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 4: Yes, if we divide this much along gender lines.

191
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 1: Bohy, A'm torn by this next part. You're right, you're

192
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,360
Speaker 1: one hundred percent. We've done the we've talked about this

193
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 1: before the polling. You don't have to go back very

194
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 1: many years where it was pretty close to men and

195
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 1: women tracked with different age groups. Men and women under

196
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 1: certain age is about half each party. Then you get

197
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 1: to it older than about half. Each party got more conservative.

198
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:16,200
Speaker 1: But now it's a complete split, right, right, So here's

199
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 1: a real conflict for me instead of panic urgency, common

200
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 1: reactions and conservative media and even GOP circles after These

201
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 1: kind of electoral drubbings include mockery, disdain in general disregard

202
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,840
Speaker 1: that is correct, you've probably seen it before. The pundits

203
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:33,960
Speaker 1: joking and not joking that the Nineteenth Amendment was a mistake.

204
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 1: Legislators dismissing the entire block is sad, childless spinsters, certain

205
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,720
Speaker 1: commentators claiming, based on electoral results, that there's no greater

206
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 1: enemy of Western civilization than young women. The TV and

207
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 1: podcast hosts ridiculing young female voters for being generally stupid.

208
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: About that misguided, I don't know about stupid, yeah, misguided

209
00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 1: and crazed yeah yeah, in doctriname. But his point obviously

210
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 1: is that the while the Democratics Democratic Party's attempt to

211
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 1: reconnect with young men have thus far been deeply stupid

212
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: and embarrassing, at least they're trying, and Republicans had better

213
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:20,720
Speaker 1: wake up and do the same. Man. AOC could lead

214
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 1: quite the army, hot army place, probably wearing like leather boots,

215
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 1: high highes, I don't know, goose stepping, I don't know, crowd,

216
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 1: the crowd of followers. Yeah, like I said about AOC

217
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 1: she's thickening up in her older age. Wow, that was terrible,

218
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 1: and I apologize for it. Was there any ticket to

219
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 1: That's how she got on TV in the first place?

220
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 1: All right, here's your homework assignment. I picture her army

221
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 1: wearing short shorts and the boots. I'm right, I've said

222
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: something bad. You're right. What young women or young ish

223
00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:02,080
Speaker 1: women of a conservative bent? How do we start to

224
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 1: bring back women to sanity and even moderate politics, never

225
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 1: mind make them into conservatives, just not communist communist Islamists.

226
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 1: How do we craft the message? How do we do that?

227
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 1: What would you suggest a Republican party? Drop us a

228
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 1: note mail bag at Armstrong and Geddy dot com. Mail

229
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 1: bag at Armstrong Geddy dot com. There's only one choice.

230
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 4: You got to get the Marxists out of the schools

231
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 4: that are teaching them this stuff.

232
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 1: Amen. I don't know if there's any other way, true fact.

233
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, any thoughts on that, Like Joe said, email us

234
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 4: more on the way stay here.

235
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 5: I know we probably have quite a few nervous flyers today.

236
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 5: It is perfectly understandable. I want to emphasize this aircraft

237
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 5: not move a single inch. Let's put my co captain

238
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 5: Michael and myself are absolutely certain it's safe to do,

239
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 5: so top that off. Before I left the house on

240
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 5: this trip, I little learned the word ice cream and

241
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 5: she maybe make sure I promised her to get her

242
00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:58,920
Speaker 5: ice cream when I get back home from the drip.

243
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 5: That makes it nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing. I'd

244
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 5: safe comes in to fake me that a little girl

245
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 5: in her ice cream. Oh, I know you guys probably

246
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 5: have some similar plans, maybe not tonight, but probably tomorrow

247
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 5: afternoon with PI. Please feel free to join our wife

248
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 5: fight and take care of picking out which place you

249
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 5: guys are going to get ice cream or sho your

250
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 5: friends and family text about what you guys do on

251
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 5: the flight. It's gonna be short, should be a really

252
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 5: nice day to go fly. We'll get you guys up

253
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 5: there safely. Again, Thanks so much for your health here

254
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 5: in the boarding process.

255
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 4: Why not a way welcome for I kind of like

256
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 4: the pilot saying I got a little girl who I

257
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 4: care about I want to take care of, so I'm

258
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 4: gonna do my best obviously, as opposed to wondering if

259
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 4: they're despondent and thinking, you know, my life is a mess.

260
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 4: It's never gonna get better muttering passages from the Koran.

261
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 1: Oh jeez, I wasn't gonna go there. They there were

262
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 1: a couple for that Malaysia air flight. There were a couple.

263
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 1: There was an aegy at Bear flight anyway, but.

264
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 4: That was that was despondent related, and they happened to

265
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 4: be Muslim, wasn't it right?

266
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: Yeah? Probably? Yeah? Oh what was I gonna say? It

267
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 1: seemed important? Oh yeah, you know, I had for a

268
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 1: few years of my life when I first started to

269
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 1: fly for business, a fear of flying that that was

270
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 1: really annoying. And one of the things that helped me

271
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 1: a couple of things, but one of them was looking

272
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 1: at the pilot and co pilot and all the flight

273
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 1: attendants and thinking they're doing this all day every day

274
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 1: for a paycheck. It's gonna be okay. That helped.

275
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 4: So when you get on the flight, you should ask

276
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 4: the pilot so you you know, wife doing okay.

277
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 1: That's your health, his career as rewarding as you'd hoped.

278
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 1: You got a gambling problem or anything that's about to

279
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 1: sneak up on you. No, cool, you ever use the

280
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 1: words what's the point anyway? Everybody would be better off

281
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 1: if I wasn't here. Have you ever said that? Lord? No, Okay,

282
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,600
Speaker 1: I'm going to enjoy it. Flight. Thanks, I'm Tenny if

283
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:08,639
Speaker 1: you need me. So. The spectacular grift that was Black

284
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 1: Lives Matter is actually continuing, and really interesting information has

285
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:21,919
Speaker 1: emerged about the national Black Lives Matter organization and their finances.

286
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 1: It's funny how it's just not finding its way to

287
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:28,920
Speaker 1: the mainstream media. But man, we've got some you're not

288
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,880
Speaker 1: gonna believe this stuff. Coming up in just a couple

289
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:32,639
Speaker 1: of minutes, I.

290
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 4: Want to talk a little bit about Veterans Day. It

291
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:36,479
Speaker 4: is Veterans Day today, and I don't know if your

292
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 4: kids are in school or not, but it is the

293
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 4: holiday where we're supposed to anyway on our veterans and

294
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:43,399
Speaker 4: we will talk a.

295
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 1: Little bit about that later. Excellent, looking forward to that

296
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 1: and the original Veterans Day, the end of World War One,

297
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 1: which I still find fascinating, partially the fact that we

298
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 1: thought that that was the worst cataclysm that could ever

299
00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,399
Speaker 1: happen on planet Earth and nothing like that would ever

300
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 1: happen again. Boy were we wrong? Whoops? Yeah, And the

301
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 1: fact that Europe is now in a gray zone. A

302
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 1: leader just said, we're not at war, but we're definitely

303
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: not at peace. Wow.

304
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:12,639
Speaker 4: Okay, we got a lot of stuff to get to.

305
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:13,800
Speaker 4: I hope you can stay here if you missed a

306
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 4: segment and get the podcast. Armstrong and Getty on the man.

307
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 1: Armstrong and Getty.

308
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,399
Speaker 4: They're just looking at some video at Trump does the

309
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 4: President of the United States. I shouldn't just call him

310
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 4: Trump the President of the United States. It's in this

311
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 4: context I call him Trump all the time. Now I'm

312
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 4: gonna sneeze. How do you listen to this radio show?

313
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 4: I'm all over the place.

314
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:37,919
Speaker 1: Wow, this is the rantings of a crazy person.

315
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,359
Speaker 4: I got a bird flu, a roof and mouth disease,

316
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:43,440
Speaker 4: or just good old fashioned gun area.

317
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 1: It's hard to say Sean tries to shoot other men

318
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:48,960
Speaker 1: over an argument over how many eggs a chicken can lay?

319
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:53,359
Speaker 1: Stay tuned. Can you blame him? Guy said four? That's ridiculous.

320
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,160
Speaker 1: Don't be messing around when we're talking about chickens. Okay,

321
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:56,960
Speaker 1: let me start over.

322
00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:00,880
Speaker 4: The President, Donald Trump had a number of Veterans Day

323
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,640
Speaker 4: services that are going on today. My son himself here

324
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 4: soon will be at our local cemetery as a boy scout,

325
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,360
Speaker 4: putting the little American flags on the graves of all

326
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:13,919
Speaker 4: the veterans, which I appreciate. My brother is a veteran,

327
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 4: my dad too. My brother actually served in war zones

328
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:23,239
Speaker 4: several different times. And thank God for people who are

329
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 4: willing to do that, because there's a whole bunch of

330
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:26,160
Speaker 4: people that aren't willing to do that, which we'll talk

331
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 4: about more in a little bit.

332
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,360
Speaker 1: Recruitment has been fantastic. We didn't mention this, I.

333
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 4: Don't think, just from a week or so ago when

334
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 4: the news came out that we the Army met its

335
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,919
Speaker 4: fiscal year twenty twenty five active duty recruitment goal of

336
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:45,240
Speaker 4: sixty one thousand soldiers four months before the year ended,

337
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:49,639
Speaker 4: four months early. Marking is significant turnaround. I'm going to

338
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:53,439
Speaker 4: read this whatever this mainstream media explanation or this is

339
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 4: marking a significant turnaround after failing to meet goals in

340
00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 4: previous years.

341
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:01,359
Speaker 1: So all of a sudden, now you hit the goal

342
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 1: four months early. This success is attributed to a combination

343
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 1: of new strategies and offering a higher enlistment bonuses along

344
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:17,639
Speaker 1: with a renewed public interest in service. What do you

345
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:23,399
Speaker 1: think that renewed public interest in service is fighting for

346
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 1: Joe Biden's America or fighting for Donald Trump's America right

347
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 1: of a party in a candidate who seemed ashamed of America,

348
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:36,359
Speaker 1: American power, the American place in the world, with a

349
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 1: good dose of fighting in Joe Biden's military run by

350
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 1: his people, or in Trump's military run by his people. Right,

351
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:48,480
Speaker 1: the woke social Experiment jobs program, that is, the military

352
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:50,680
Speaker 1: as opposed to this is going to be a lean,

353
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:55,360
Speaker 1: mean fighting machine, a force for good in the world. Yeah, yeah,

354
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 1: I want to get off on that.

355
00:20:56,400 --> 00:21:02,000
Speaker 4: So Veterans Day today, November eleventh, established because of this day.

356
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 4: In nineteen eighteen was the end of World War One. Now,

357
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 4: if you're a fan of World War One or seen

358
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:12,239
Speaker 4: any of the movies, it is horrifying to know that

359
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 4: while a number of leaders on both sides knew the

360
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 4: war was going to end, they still tried to fight

361
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 4: one more battle so that they could get a little

362
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 4: more credit with their home country for having taken another

363
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:26,159
Speaker 4: hill or whatever.

364
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,360
Speaker 1: With young men dying and having their arms blown off

365
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:35,600
Speaker 1: completely needlessly in a vanity project by people who didn't

366
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 1: have to risk their skin. That's the sort of thing

367
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 1: that makes pacifist pacifists pacifists are wrong and I'm a

368
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 1: long way from a pacifist, but there is a great

369
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 1: history military throughout the world of meaningless gestures that make

370
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:53,280
Speaker 1: men leaders feel good by wasting the lives of the

371
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:57,679
Speaker 1: young men. And I find it horrifying, absolutely horrifying. Bothers

372
00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 1: me a lot that that happens.

373
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 4: Thank God that our culture is not like that to

374
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 4: a great extent, like similar cultures have men And now

375
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,359
Speaker 4: I bring all that up to get to these numbers.

376
00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:13,159
Speaker 4: With all that being known, recent Gallup International polls Gallop

377
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,159
Speaker 4: pretty much the gold standard of polling organizations in the world,

378
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,480
Speaker 4: asking whether or not adults globally would be willing to

379
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:21,640
Speaker 4: fight for their country.

380
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 1: An interesting question on veterans a day.

381
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 4: Overall for planet Earth, just over half of adults would

382
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 4: be willing.

383
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:35,239
Speaker 1: To fight for their country. The most interesting thing is

384
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:40,200
Speaker 1: that's a decrease of more than ten points.

385
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:45,200
Speaker 4: In the last decade. Kind of interesting right there. Ten

386
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,840
Speaker 4: point drop is not insignificant. Happened in a decade from

387
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,920
Speaker 4: over sixty percent of adults who'd be willing to fight

388
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 4: for the country down to fifty percent. I just wonder

389
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:56,719
Speaker 4: if that's a trend line that will continue that direction

390
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 4: in the next ten years and what that means, I.

391
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 1: Think it we'll continue in that direction. How far it goes,

392
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I'm not shocked by that. Why

393
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 1: there has been a concerted effort by some of the

394
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:12,159
Speaker 1: most powerful countries on earth to sow the seeds of

395
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 1: cynicism and internal conflict in a lot of countries. It's

396
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,640
Speaker 1: worked to some extent in the United States. Even Russia

397
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 1: and China are both intensely interested in having us at

398
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 1: each other's throats all the time. You can read the

399
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,959
Speaker 1: reports they've written, and the studies they've done, and the

400
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 1: experts that they consult to do that. It's a deliberate strategy. Yeah,

401
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:37,360
Speaker 1: the reason I.

402
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:39,960
Speaker 4: Brought version, the reason I brought up that whole idea

403
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 4: of you know, guys who are at the top of

404
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 4: the hill with binoculars ordering young men to their deaths

405
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:51,919
Speaker 4: for vanity projects. That happens in other countries. Maybe more

406
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:56,159
Speaker 4: people are aware of that phenomenon around the world than

407
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 4: they used to be. Like, it's not a United States problem,

408
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 4: is a problem with lots of country though throughout history.

409
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 4: I don't know, I have no idea, but break it

410
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:08,880
Speaker 4: down by region highest willingness to fight for your country.

411
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 4: In West and West Asia, seventy seven percent in West

412
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 4: Asia said they'd be willing to fight for their country,

413
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 4: In the Middle East seventy three percent, So we're talking

414
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 4: three quarters. India seventy six So all of those areas,

415
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 4: by the way, that's like half the world population. There,

416
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 4: all of those areas three quarters willing to die for

417
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:34,600
Speaker 4: the country. The lowest, very lowest, EU at thirty two percent,

418
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:39,800
Speaker 4: United States at forty one percent, Canada at thirty four

419
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:43,119
Speaker 4: So EU and Canada both down at a third, the

420
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 4: United States at least up at forty one, closer to

421
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:47,320
Speaker 4: the world average.

422
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 1: Yeah. So you've got civilizations that are proud of themselves,

423
00:24:55,880 --> 00:25:00,040
Speaker 1: believe in themselves, are willing to defend themselves, and and

424
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 1: then you got civilizations who spend all their time hating themselves,

425
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 1: criticizing themselves. And it's not surprising that people are not

426
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:12,360
Speaker 1: willing to die for those civilizations. Yeah, yeah, well, and

427
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 1: it's just it's a symptom I think of extended long

428
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:22,000
Speaker 1: term comfort. If you live in a tough neighborhood where

429
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,919
Speaker 1: you have to defend yourself with your fists semi regularly,

430
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:29,879
Speaker 1: you're ready to do that. If you have lived in

431
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 1: wealth and comfort your entire life. You see no reason

432
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 1: to fight for your country? How would that happen? What

433
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,720
Speaker 1: are you talking about anyway? Wow, that's how really video

434
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:39,879
Speaker 1: games in which I pretend to fight for my country.

435
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:41,959
Speaker 1: That's a real lack of perspective.

436
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:45,400
Speaker 4: Obviously, I think you're right, but could you could easily

437
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 4: think it should be flipped around? Things are so good here.

438
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:51,159
Speaker 4: We know how bad it can be by looking at

439
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,680
Speaker 4: you all over there, you and your ass whole countries.

440
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:55,360
Speaker 4: We don't want it to be like that. So I'm

441
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,680
Speaker 4: very willing to fight to hang on to this.

442
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,359
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, you would say think that, but especially if

443
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:05,360
Speaker 1: you have indoctrination factories in your government schools where they're

444
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:08,120
Speaker 1: being taught to hate their own country. You know, you've

445
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,479
Speaker 1: said many times, has there ever been a society that

446
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 1: does this? Has there ever been the experiment run where

447
00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 1: you teach your youngsters to despise their own culture? Well,

448
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,680
Speaker 1: I this is definitely one of the results. You would get,

449
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 1: right to be ashamed of their own culture. Right. Why

450
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 1: would I fight for a country that's like the worst

451
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,680
Speaker 1: country on earth? Man, it's the most racist country on earth.

452
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 1: As they said back in the Black Lives Matter days,

453
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 1: and the internal finances of the Black Lives Matter organization

454
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 1: are coming out. We'll tell you about that next segment.

455
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,919
Speaker 4: So it doesn't seem like much of a mystery to me.

456
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 4: If you're going to look at those numbers in the

457
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:52,919
Speaker 4: globe over time, which societies are gonna be running the

458
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:57,399
Speaker 4: planet one hundred years from now? The ones where three

459
00:26:57,520 --> 00:26:59,439
Speaker 4: quarters of their people are willing to fight for their

460
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:01,640
Speaker 4: country are the ones where a third of their people

461
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:02,159
Speaker 4: are willing to.

462
00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:08,520
Speaker 1: Fight for their lifestyle. Right, this is not very complicated China.

463
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:11,679
Speaker 4: In China, on this Veterans Day, they go to the

464
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:15,320
Speaker 4: movie theater and watch movies and stand up in cheer loudly.

465
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 4: I've read about this in a bunch of different ways.

466
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:21,360
Speaker 4: Movies where they're killing Americans or killing Europeans or whatever.

467
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 1: We put out movies explaining how we're bad countries. We're

468
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:31,680
Speaker 1: a bad country. Yeah, it's just as astounding to me. Yeah.

469
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,640
Speaker 1: It is. Heard Victor Davis Hansen talking the other day

470
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 1: the Great Stage of Central California and the Hoover Institution,

471
00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:43,400
Speaker 1: talking about and I'm paraphrasing here, but you know, as

472
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 1: a variation on the idea that you may not be

473
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,879
Speaker 1: interested in politics. Politics is interested in you. And you

474
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,719
Speaker 1: might not believe in warfare, but warfair sure believes in

475
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 1: you and your fat rich society. With all your stuff.

476
00:27:56,520 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 1: You can disavow military preparedness and military strength all day long.

477
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:06,400
Speaker 1: Military strength is gonna come find you. Yeah.

478
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 4: The good news is recruitment goals met. People feeling better

479
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:14,240
Speaker 4: about this country anyway. Probably can't turn Europe or Canada around,

480
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 4: but feeling better about this country at least as of today.

481
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:21,119
Speaker 4: And a shout out to everyone who is a veteran

482
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 4: who's willing to sign.

483
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:28,920
Speaker 1: Up for that project. Yeah, and your civilization unbelievable. That's

484
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 1: quite a gap three quarters versus thirty percent Europe versus Asia. Wow. Boy,

485
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 1: And you've got the the EU and Canada that have

486
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 1: existed as the pampered pets of the United States military

487
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,360
Speaker 1: mite for a long time. They really really can't even

488
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 1: picture fighting to defend themselves. Sad, that is something. Yeah,

489
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 1: speaking of sad, Jimmy Kimmel's wife is angry all the time.

490
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 1: And Black Lives Matter turns out it was a grift.

491
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,280
Speaker 1: Who knows, well, we did and we said so. But anyway,

492
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:04,280
Speaker 1: I've heard that Jimmy Kimble's life story. I want to

493
00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 1: talk about that all on the way. Stay here.

494
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 4: And so this is Jimmy Kimble's wife, She said, a

495
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 4: couple of things. That's getting a lot of tension. I

496
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:15,160
Speaker 4: actually haven't heard this yet.

497
00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 6: When I see these terrible stories every day, I'm immediately

498
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,800
Speaker 6: mad at certain aunts, uncles, cousins who put him in power.

499
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 6: And it's really hard and it's I wish I could

500
00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 6: like deprogram myself in some way, but I get really angry.

501
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,160
Speaker 6: And I've sent many emails to family, like right for

502
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,560
Speaker 6: the election, saying I'm begging you, here's the ten reasons

503
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 6: not to vote for this guy.

504
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 1: Please don't.

505
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,640
Speaker 6: And I either got ignored by ninety percent of them

506
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 6: or got truly insane responses from with you.

507
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:45,560
Speaker 1: It's definitely caused a strain.

508
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 6: I've definitely pulled in closer with the family that I

509
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 6: feel more aligned with, and I hate that this has happened.

510
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 6: You know, it feels silly, you know, the hardon goes.

511
00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 6: Don't let politics get in the way. But to me,

512
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 6: this isn't politics. It's truly values, and we just were

513
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 6: not a lot anymore.

514
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:06,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's literally politics. Yeah, she said, she felt deeply

515
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:08,800
Speaker 1: betrayed by relatives who back to President Trump, saying their

516
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 1: vote was effectively a vote against her husband and family.

517
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 4: That's an interesting way to look at it. This gets

518
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 4: to the whole we think they're wrong, they think we're evil.

519
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 1: Thing.

520
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:20,960
Speaker 4: When you can't sit down with people you think are evil,

521
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 4: I can sit down with people I think are wrong.

522
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 4: I don't want to talk about politics with you. I

523
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 4: think you're wrong and we're never going to agree. But

524
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:29,880
Speaker 4: I don't think you're evil. So you being at Thanksgiving

525
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,920
Speaker 4: or whatever doesn't bother me. But how about her? I'd

526
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 4: send them all a list of ten reasons not to

527
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 4: vote for Trump, and some of them didn't even respond. Yeah, yeah,

528
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 4: I love relatives just sending me emails out of nowhere.

529
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,000
Speaker 1: Here's the ten reasons not to vote a certain way.

530
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 1: Shut the hell up? Who asked you? Well, it's more

531
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 1: surpised that she ordered them not to vote for Trumpy.

532
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 1: Shut up. Oh that is something, so oh my god,

533
00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 1: that's so annoying. Good word. Yeah, I'm happy not to

534
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,880
Speaker 1: be with you at Thanksgiving. Trust me. If this is

535
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:09,120
Speaker 1: the way you're gonna be good Lord. Yes, severing all

536
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:12,440
Speaker 1: those family relationships we had to get your priorities straight, sweetheart.

537
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 1: And it's not about politics. Yeah, it is. It is.

538
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 1: You've just become a mad woman about politics. Anyway. We

539
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 1: all remember the name Patrise Colors, right, black Lives Matter

540
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 1: co founder. We're trained Marxists, she said in that famous interview,

541
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,000
Speaker 1: and then the media ignored the fact that they're Marxists

542
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 1: during virtually their entire reign of terror over corporate America.

543
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 1: According to the latest tax returns obtained by the Washington

544
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:40,240
Speaker 1: Free Beacon, she resigned in twenty twenty one, but the

545
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 1: charity suffered from the excesses of her tenure well into

546
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three. Now under colors leadership, Black Lives Matter

547
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: Global Network Foundation doled out massive contracts to her friends

548
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 1: and family. They purchased a six million dollar mansion in

549
00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:57,320
Speaker 1: la in twenty twenty, financed the purchase of an eight

550
00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 1: million dollar mansion in Canada in twenty twenty one. Wow.

551
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:03,200
Speaker 1: By the end of its fiscal twenty twenty three year,

552
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:06,440
Speaker 1: tax forms show Black Lives Matter saw the eighty million

553
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 1: dollar windfall it raked in during the George Floyd riots

554
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 1: from idiot corporations that were just desperate to be on

555
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 1: the right side of this. That eighty million dollars turned

556
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 1: into twenty nine million dollars in three years as it

557
00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 1: hemorrhaged cash fulfilling lingering contractual obligations to Colors associates. For instance,

558
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 1: Damon Turner Colors Baby Daddy, whose art firm Trap Heels,

559
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 1: received seven hundred and eighty thousand dollars in twenty twenty three, okay,

560
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 1: seven hundred and eighty grand despite performing no work for

561
00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:46,280
Speaker 1: the charity that year.

562
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 4: So we know people personally who lost their careers for

563
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 4: saying all lives matter during that crazy period.

564
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,800
Speaker 1: You know who doesn't think black lives matter? Of those

565
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 1: people who spent all that money on their houses and

566
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 1: their cars and their lifestyle, they don't care about black lives. God,

567
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:08,040
Speaker 1: I care for money more. That's quite the situation. Other

568
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 1: staffers from the Colors here received massive payouts on their

569
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,920
Speaker 1: way out of Black Lives Matter. Former BLM Director of

570
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:16,760
Speaker 1: Operations Raymond Howard and a consulting firm run by his

571
00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:20,960
Speaker 1: sister received a one point one million dollar payment in

572
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 1: the group's twenty twenty three fiscal years they went out.

573
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:27,080
Speaker 1: The Door group also disclosed two separate six figure settlement

574
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 1: agreements to unnamed former employees in its financial statements. One

575
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:33,960
Speaker 1: BLM board member received four hundred thousand dollars is part

576
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,959
Speaker 1: of one settlement agreement. Another unnamed former employee got three

577
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty five and another They just said it

578
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:42,120
Speaker 1: was confidential HR and legal matters matters, and what the

579
00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 1: hell do they care? So it's just a grift, so

580
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:45,880
Speaker 1: they don't mind making payouts.

581
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 4: So there are a number of organizations current, including a

582
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,680
Speaker 4: church near me that I see Black Lives Matter signs

583
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 4: all the time. This church their front like when you

584
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,520
Speaker 4: pull into their driveway, they're big. You know the name

585
00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:01,960
Speaker 4: of their church right undernath that big wooden Black lives matter.

586
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:07,520
Speaker 4: So what would you do if you were on their

587
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:09,879
Speaker 4: side of this argument? You believe black men are being

588
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,960
Speaker 4: hunted down by white racist cops, et cetera, et cetera,

589
00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:18,840
Speaker 4: You believe in that idea that raised the money in

590
00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:23,399
Speaker 4: the first place, What would you do? I mean, that's

591
00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:28,879
Speaker 4: a pretty good phrase, black lives matter, right Like when

592
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 4: I see it, I just I roll my eyes and

593
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 4: think nice having a sign up by a bunch of thieves,

594
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:41,359
Speaker 4: Marxist thieves, which is a repetitive What would you do though,

595
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 4: I mean the phrase is too good to abandon.

596
00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:46,319
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, they're still trying to do their thing. They're

597
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 1: running large deficits right now as they spend money like crazy.

598
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:54,440
Speaker 1: Well have they weeded out all the thieves now? I

599
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:56,719
Speaker 1: don't think so. Again, we twenty twenty three is the

600
00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,360
Speaker 1: most recent records we have, But like Paul Colors, Patrice

601
00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:02,319
Speaker 1: Color's brother Or received two hundred grand and twenty twenty

602
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:04,840
Speaker 1: three as Black Lives Matters head of security in his company,

603
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,800
Speaker 1: Black Ties, LLC earned an additional one point six million

604
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,920
Speaker 1: dollars providing professional security services for the charity.

605
00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:14,239
Speaker 4: Isn't that an interesting statement about human nature? Because I

606
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 4: assume they were really into this when it started, the

607
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:20,480
Speaker 4: fact that black men were dying at the hands of

608
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 4: white racist cops, and then very quickly checks start rolling

609
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:27,600
Speaker 4: in and you very quickly abandon your concern about that

610
00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:31,520
Speaker 4: and decide I need a six million dollar house. That's

611
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:35,920
Speaker 4: something about human nature. Yeah, And they're suing the Tides Foundation,

612
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:39,640
Speaker 4: the left wing dark money giant. The lawsuit LEDs alleges

613
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,879
Speaker 4: Tides refused to hand back the more than thirty three

614
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,520
Speaker 4: million dollars it raised on behalf of Black lives Matter.

615
00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:48,680
Speaker 4: In twenty twenty, Tides says it has the ultimate control,

616
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,840
Speaker 4: et cetera. Where there's money, there's theft, And there.
