1 00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:04,120 Speaker 1: Welcome to the Tutor Dixon Podcast. This is our little 2 00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:07,000 Speaker 1: Saturday episode and we decided that we wanted to do 3 00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:10,280 Speaker 1: this episode. I have Kyle Olsen with me because earlier 4 00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:12,799 Speaker 1: in the week I was having a conversation with someone 5 00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:16,360 Speaker 1: about what's going on in politics, the whole changeover of 6 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:20,480 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, and he mentioned the Supreme Court, and I 7 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,960 Speaker 1: and Kyle. You know, recently President Biden came out and 8 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 1: said he wanted Supreme Court reform. And now he's saying 9 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 1: that there's a few different things. One of them is 10 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:32,519 Speaker 1: that he wants a constitutional amendment to make sure no 11 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: president has immunity anymore. No one it's called no one 12 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:39,920 Speaker 1: is above the law. And then this whole eighteen year 13 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:43,200 Speaker 1: term limit. And it was interesting because this guy who 14 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 1: was a conservative talking to me said, I actually don't 15 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 1: have a problem with the term limit, and I think 16 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 1: this is probably a I guess a little bit naive 17 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 1: of most people to go, you know what, I think 18 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: that that's okay, why not eighteen years. It's a long time. 19 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 1: We don't need people on the Supreme Court forever. But 20 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 1: I was thinking about it. You and I had a 21 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 1: conversation and I said to him. You know, I got 22 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,040 Speaker 1: to push back a little bit on this, specifically when 23 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 1: we look at the Supreme Court, because if you have 24 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: somebody that is on the Supreme Court for eighteen years 25 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,759 Speaker 1: and they come out in their sixties, which is possible 26 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: and I think much more possible if Joe Biden gets 27 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 1: what he wants, because he's saying that he wants every 28 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: president to appoint a new justice every two years, and 29 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 1: so you're going to start to get younger and younger people, right, 30 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: They're going to be trying to bring in younger and 31 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: younger people. Well, those people have huge influence, and after 32 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: eighteen years, they could very easily be swayed to make 33 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,200 Speaker 1: decisions based on their next job. And I think you 34 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 1: have to keep in mind that the Supreme Court has 35 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: always been protected by the fact that these people aren't 36 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 1: going anyplace else. Isn't that, I mean, it isn't that 37 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: how you look at it. 38 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, And if you look at a state like Michigan 39 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 2: that has legislative term limits for the House and sentive 40 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 2: state House and Senate, they had been relatively short. You 41 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 2: could be six years in the House, eight years in 42 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 2: the Senate, and then you're out of government. You can't 43 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 2: run again. That has since been reformed. But the point 44 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,919 Speaker 2: is you've got legislators who know they have a definitive 45 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 2: end to their legislative career, and a lot of times 46 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:25,079 Speaker 2: what will happen is those legislators will start making decisions, 47 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 2: they'll introduce bills, they'll do particular votes, angling towards a 48 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:35,399 Speaker 2: career after their time in the legislature. And so I'm 49 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 2: not saying it's corruption. I'm just saying it is the 50 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 2: by product of a system where people their career is 51 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 2: not going to end because they're in their fifties or 52 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 2: maybe early sixties something like that, they want to do 53 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:52,240 Speaker 2: something after and so they they're influenced. 54 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 1: It can lead to bias, and that's the one thing 55 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 1: that we have been protected protected against in the Supreme 56 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 1: Court is biased. And I know are like, oh, I 57 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: don't like these. There's two decisions, and that's what it 58 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: comes down to. To me. It blows my mind. There 59 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: are two decisions that have convinced the public that they 60 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 1: should totally reform the Supreme Court. And I find it 61 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 1: interesting because I truly believed that it was Democrats who 62 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: pushed these decisions the way they came out because I 63 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: think they knew that if Roe v. Wade went in 64 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 1: front of the Supreme Court, they would say that it 65 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: was unjustly decided and it's not law and it has 66 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 1: to go back to the States. And I think that 67 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: they manipulated the situation in Mississippi to take it to 68 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court knowing that they could ultimately use it 69 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: as a tool of power. And I know people would 70 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: disagree with me there, but look at what they've been 71 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: able to do with the whole Roe v. Wade conversation, 72 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: and they continue to have it today. I mean last week. 73 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: I think I mentioned this a couple days ago. Last week, 74 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: I met with a few girls who are on the 75 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 1: Democrat side, and they were like, if Trump gets elected, 76 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: we won't contraception. And somebody in the office was telling 77 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: me that they're one of their family members. It is like, 78 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: if Trump gets elected, I'm just worried about contraception. These 79 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: messages are very valuable and for them for the other side, 80 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 1: and they've manipulated people into wanting to change an institution 81 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,679 Speaker 1: that has been protected since the beginning of the United 82 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: States of America. And I believe it's a manipulative move 83 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 1: to change out the term limits for the United States 84 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: Supreme Court. Also, this whole idea of taking away presidential immunity, 85 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: I wonder how the others feel about that, because, let's 86 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: face it, Joe Biden is on his deathbed. He doesn't care. 87 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: It's not going to affect him. This guy is not 88 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: having anybody come back to him and saying, hey, we 89 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 1: don't like what you did in Afghanistan. We think you 90 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 1: belong in jail. But I mean, Obama people could come 91 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: back and say, look, you droned civilians. You got to 92 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 1: go to prison. This presidential immunity ish, Yeah, you're under pressure. 93 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 1: You have to be able to make these decisions. So 94 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,559 Speaker 1: both of these, in my opinion, both both of these 95 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: go to you are skewing the ability of the person 96 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:08,039 Speaker 1: to make clear headed decisions. Same Supreme Court. If you 97 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: start to tell them you have to work at another 98 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 1: job in a few years, you skew their ability to 99 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: make clear headed decisions. The president, if you say you 100 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: don't have immunity, you skew their ability to make clear 101 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: headed decisions. 102 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. And in a place like Washington, d C. And 103 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 2: State capital's access influence and experience from our currency, but 104 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 2: they're but their currency. And so if there is a 105 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 2: sitting U Supreme Court justice whose term, whose term is 106 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 2: going to be done in two or four years, those 107 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 2: there's lobbying firms, there are legal firms that want that 108 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 2: person because they have experience and access and and uh 109 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 2: and connections, and so what does that do for the 110 00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 2: integrity of the court. And I just think it opens 111 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:04,840 Speaker 2: up so many questions. And really, this what Biden came 112 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,040 Speaker 2: out with, you know, sort of breaking the ice with 113 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 2: this sort of proposal. It's an extension, it's a continuation 114 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 2: of what they have been doing to the court. And 115 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 2: if you go back for months now, the Democrats and 116 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 2: Progressives have been attacking the integrity of the court, specifically, 117 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 2: if you want to boil it all down, specifically the 118 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 2: integrity of Clarence Thomas, right. And they're saying, well, he's 119 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,679 Speaker 2: gone on these trips and he's had donors and somehow 120 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:37,600 Speaker 2: he's being influenced, even though they're implying that and they're 121 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 2: saying it, but they cannot point to a single case 122 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,359 Speaker 2: where they can't draw a line to a single case. 123 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 2: And so but what they're doing is they're attacking the 124 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 2: integrity of the court. You mentioned that the two specific cases, 125 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 2: How do we know if these sorts of reforms that 126 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 2: Biden wants, the outcome of those cases would have been 127 00:06:59,279 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 2: any different. 128 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 1: Let me argue. Let me argue. I actually think it's 129 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: incredibly dangerous because I think that the fact that they 130 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: have created such a control over elections means that they 131 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: have figured out They had the Colorado motto model. They 132 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 1: figured out Colorado. They brought Colorado's model to Michigan. They 133 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: and this is all public record. This is not like 134 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: you don't have to be a sleuth to find this stuff. 135 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 1: It's pretty much out there. If you're looking, you can 136 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: find out what they've done to organize. And I've said 137 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: before the Democrats campaign like it's a business, and I 138 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 1: give them credit for that. They win elections because they 139 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 1: are very focused, they are very targeted. They run it 140 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: like it is a business. They campaign on emotion. They 141 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 1: run elections like a business. We run elections on emotion, 142 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 1: We campaign like it's business. It's a disaster for Republicans 143 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: and it has been proving to be a disaster. So 144 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: wait a minute. If now they can manipulate or organize 145 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: their way into office every single time, then you suddenly 146 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: in just a few short years you have a very 147 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 1: radical Supreme Court. If you are switching out of justice 148 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: every two years, then if you control elections, if you 149 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: control the Supreme Court, the country's gone well. 150 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 2: And we hear from both sides, this is the most 151 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 2: important election of our lifetime. It seems like we hear 152 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 2: that every election now. And what this would do because 153 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:34,559 Speaker 2: let's just say there's a Ruth Bader Ginsburg type of ideology, 154 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:40,319 Speaker 2: or a Clarence Thomas type of ideologies or Samuel Alito whoever, 155 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 2: where you know pretty much one hundred percent of the 156 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 2: time where they're going to come down on a case 157 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 2: and that person is going to be cycled off of 158 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 2: the court and the next president is going to be 159 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 2: able to appoint someone new and you know, potentially tip 160 00:08:56,520 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 2: the balance of the court. It just heightens, it just 161 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 2: heightens the intensity and the stakes of election after election. 162 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 2: And is this really the direction that we should be heading, 163 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 2: because take a step back, I mean, what is Biden 164 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 2: really trying to do here? It's it's a solution in 165 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 2: search of a problem. If we had a situation where 166 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 2: we had justices who were feeble mentally or they it 167 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 2: was it was demonstrable that they were correct, yes, exactly, 168 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 2: then there could be a case to be made that 169 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 2: there needs to be some sort of reform. But that's 170 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 2: not what they're trying to do. They're trying to use 171 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 2: these cases that they didn't agree with, which you know, 172 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 2: a lot of experts would say the court that that 173 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 2: originally issued Roll versus Wade incorrectly issued that, and and 174 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 2: so we can go back and forth about all of 175 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 2: this all the time, but the fact that they're doing 176 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 2: this now, I think between from from you know, attacking 177 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 2: the integrity the court for the last several months and 178 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:06,079 Speaker 2: now Biden is, you know, proposing this, and he's obviously 179 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 2: going to be leaving office sooner rather than later, certainly 180 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 2: in January, if not before. They're This is a very 181 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 2: long process because a constitutional amendment, which is what he's 182 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 2: proposed proposing, the Congress has to pass it and then 183 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 2: it has to go to the states, and states have 184 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,679 Speaker 2: to pass it. That's a very long process. There are 185 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 2: some constitutional amendments that were passed in the seventies. You 186 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 2: take the Equal Rights Amendment for example, that was passed 187 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 2: in the seventies that has still not been ratified by States. 188 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 1: So he's so'sl likely just another part of the show 189 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 1: government that we're watching. This is everything that we're seeing 190 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: right now as show. Although I do think you make 191 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,960 Speaker 1: a really good point that once it's out there, there's 192 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: an appetite for it. They're wedding the appetite for the 193 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:58,079 Speaker 1: future of having the entire public say yes. And this 194 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:02,199 Speaker 1: is something that I think that someone was saying to 195 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 1: me recently, that all of these things start on a 196 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 1: moral lie, like it's okay, the environment is in such 197 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: danger if you don't do something morally, if you don't 198 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,679 Speaker 1: do something, everybody will die in ten years. Well, that 199 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: didn't happen. I mean, it's the same thing with this. 200 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: My gosh, this court is corrupt. If we don't have 201 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 1: some ability to change it over time, then you're going 202 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: to end up with a very horrible that you'll lose 203 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 1: the country that way. I mean, these are all lies 204 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 1: that become bigger and bigger and bigger. And that's why 205 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,680 Speaker 1: I think it's very important for us as citizens to 206 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,839 Speaker 1: get involved and understand pay attention. I know people don't 207 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:41,560 Speaker 1: want to pay attention to news. I can't tell you 208 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 1: how many friends I had that are like I don't 209 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,079 Speaker 1: even watch the news. Pay attention to what bills are passing, 210 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: pay attention to what your state government and your federal 211 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: government are doing. I mean, we had just last week 212 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 1: the governor wasn't even even the governor someone because the 213 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 1: governor's not here anymore. Our governor has left town to 214 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: go on a book tour. We had the Attorney General 215 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: signing bills and signed a bill into log giving our 216 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:12,199 Speaker 1: environmental agency emergency powers. Now, morally people can go, wow, 217 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 1: that's great. They can make sure there's no environmental disaster. 218 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 1: Reality of that is a bunch of young kids that 219 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:24,199 Speaker 1: come out of a liberal university that have no concept 220 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: of business and no concept of how a state is 221 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,679 Speaker 1: run or how the inner workings of business and state run. 222 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 1: And they go in and they shut down our farms, 223 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 1: and they shut down our manufacturing, and the constant the 224 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 1: unintended consequences are great, and which is why you have 225 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: to look at something like this and instead of like 226 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: what happened to me the other night, a conservative guy going, 227 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 1: you know what, I'm not really that upset about an 228 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 1: eighteen year term. I guess that's a long time. Wait, wait, wait, 229 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 1: don't just stop at that think through the whole thing, 230 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,959 Speaker 1: think about how that works, talk to people, think about 231 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 1: how government, how corrupt government can be. I mean, I 232 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: think you make a phenomenal point in this. The currency 233 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 1: that goes around d C and power and information and 234 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:17,080 Speaker 1: prestigeous currency is currency and people are constantly exchanging it. 235 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I would just question why is why are 236 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 2: they doing this now? So they've been attacking the integrity 237 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,680 Speaker 2: of the court, which you know they previously told us 238 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 2: you're not supposed to do, but they've been doing that 239 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 2: for months now, and now suddenly they come out with 240 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 2: this proposal which is very difficult to pass, And so 241 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 2: why are they doing this now? 242 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: You know? 243 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 2: I think I would suspect part of the reason is 244 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 2: because they want to change the subject. I think also 245 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 2: is they want to perpetuate this narrative that you know, 246 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 2: they've built up what they think is a case that 247 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 2: the court is corrupt and therefore this is the solution. 248 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 2: But I just think people need to look at this 249 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:07,199 Speaker 2: and say why what is really going on here and 250 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 2: why are they doing this and why are they doing 251 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 2: it now? 252 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 1: Oh? I think right now they are campaigning on lies, 253 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 1: They're campaigning on issues that are meaningless in they can't 254 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 1: have an effect right now because they have nothing to 255 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 1: campaign on. And so this gives Kamala the chance to say, 256 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: I support Joe. Look at the great work that he's 257 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 1: doing from his bed, and he's working so hard for 258 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 1: the American people, protecting democracy. She's gonna say, not only 259 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: am I protecting democracy by talking about the court, but 260 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: we're also going to protect women's health, you know, because 261 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: it doesn't have anything to do with anything other than 262 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: women's health. My gosh, if you listen to them, women 263 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 1: can't even have their I mean, you can't even have 264 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 1: your annual exam. Good grief, you can't have anything done. 265 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: You have no women's health care whatsoever. It's just a 266 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 1: total lie. But you can only if you're the Democrats. 267 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: Right now, you can only ca pain on lies. The 268 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 1: jobs report just came out last week. It was a 269 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 1: total nightmare. So far, they haven't been able to reduce 270 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:12,000 Speaker 1: the rate from the Fed. They cannot ease the pain 271 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 1: on the American people right now. They know that they 272 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 1: know that crime they say crime is down, they know 273 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 1: that in areas where crime has never reduced, it's higher 274 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 1: than ever and it's hurting those people more than ever, 275 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 1: and those are their voters. They know that the state 276 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 1: of the country is a disaster, and so they're throwing 277 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: out these things. It's just like the student loan relief. 278 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 1: They can't do it. This is the third time they're 279 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 1: trying to do it. They can't do it. They're campaigning 280 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: on buying your vote and buying your heart. That's it. Oh, 281 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 1: we're going to protect you. You are under constant threat. 282 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: You need us. That's all this is. And I think 283 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 1: it's pathetic and I think it's disgusting, but I think 284 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: that's the state of campaigning today. It'll be interesting to 285 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 1: see as we move through this weekend and we see 286 00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 1: what Harris is doing with the running mate, and we 287 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 1: are finding out how this campaign actually shapes up, because 288 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,240 Speaker 1: let's remember, we have no idea what her campaign is. 289 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 1: She's had no primary, she's had no vetting. She has 290 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 1: been in the shadows the entire time she's been vice president. 291 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 1: She's still I mean, the funny thing about the Supreme 292 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 1: Court thing is that it is still common a lot 293 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 1: in the shadows because she is still saying when Joe's 294 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 1: doing this. So it's kind of the perfect situation where 295 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: you are kind of the incumbent, but you're not the incumbent, 296 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: and you let the incumbent. He's actually testing the waters, 297 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 1: he's throwing things out there and seeing if he's getting 298 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 1: any bites, and then if he does get bites, she 299 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: can come along and say I'm with him, I'm with him. 300 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 1: I love that. It's a it's a bizarre scenario, but 301 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 1: I just I wanted to bring you on today to 302 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 1: talk about this because I feel like it's so important 303 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: for us to tell people. Don't be romanced by these 304 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: things that they manipulate you with the moral lie. Do 305 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 1: not let yourself not be able to see past what 306 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: that means and what this act actually would cause in 307 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:05,719 Speaker 1: the future. Because the integrity of the court is something 308 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 1: we've never wavered on. This completely destroys the integrity court. 309 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 1: No question, the court is completely there. The potential for 310 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 1: corruption is it's completely unprotected. So you really limit the 311 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 1: integrity of the court if you do this, And so 312 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:25,240 Speaker 1: I appreciate you coming on today, Kyle. Tell people where 313 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 1: they can find more of your stories. 314 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 2: Sure, they can go to The Midwesterner dot news, you 315 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 2: can follow us on Twitter. It's just look up The 316 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 2: Midwesterner but we're covering these sorts of stories what's happening 317 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 2: in Michigan, the Midwest, because there's so much going on 318 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:48,400 Speaker 2: that I think people aren't hearing about, they aren't thinking, 319 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:53,119 Speaker 2: you know, critically about, and there's just a lot that 320 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:54,640 Speaker 2: people need to consider, I think. 321 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:58,439 Speaker 1: And that's the beauty of this when we have these podcasts, 322 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 1: when you go on to the Midwestern I think, you 323 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 1: get to see that other side, the truth, the true 324 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 1: side of the moral lie, you know, because you're being 325 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: fed that constantly by the mainstream media. And that was 326 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 1: kind of the idea behind both of these things. It's like, Okay, 327 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: we're going to contrast that and tell people both sides 328 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 1: of the story, so it's not just one side. You're 329 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 1: going to see the whole picture. Right now, you're not 330 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 1: seeing the whole picture. I mean, even I had friends saying, 331 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 1: how could you support Trump? He was convicted on thirty 332 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,679 Speaker 1: four counts. I'm like, this is why the integrity of 333 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 1: the court is so important, because when you have a 334 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:35,440 Speaker 1: bias judge who has a captive jury and only presents 335 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 1: half of the case, of course you get a conviction. 336 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 1: It is total corruption. Those people don't see the other side. 337 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,239 Speaker 1: He wouldn't allow the other side of the case to 338 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,160 Speaker 1: be to be told. That's what we deal with every 339 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,200 Speaker 1: day with the media, and that's why the Midwestern is 340 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 1: so important, because we're rounding out that story. You get 341 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: to see both sides, and so I appreciate that, and Kyle, 342 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 1: I appreciate you coming on, and I appreciate all of 343 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,880 Speaker 1: you for listening to us on a Saturday for our 344 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 1: quick episode.
