It 7 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:41,599 Speaker 3: captures a simple yet profound truth. To ensure peace, we 8 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:43,160 Speaker 3: must prepare for war. 9 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:49,840 Speaker 4: So clearly, Drew, I think we lost that thinking there 10 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:55,640 Speaker 4: for a while, certainly through the nineties and especially when 11 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 4: we thought we were the only power on earth that 12 00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 4: could ever exist, so why would we have to worry 13 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:01,639 Speaker 4: about it?

Was 38 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 5: no focus on effectiveness, and he said some really good 39 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 5: stuff about that, and then he kind of summarizes it 40 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 5: here in Clips sixty five. 41 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 3: Michael, this administration has done a great deal from day 42 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 3: one to remove the social justice, politically correct, and toxic 43 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 3: ideological garbage that had infected our department. 44 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 2: To rip out the politics. 45 00:02:56,160 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 3: No more identity months, dei offices, dudes in dresses, no 46 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:08,279 Speaker 3: more climate change worship, no more division distraction or gender delusions, 47 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 3: no more debris.

Was it wokeness that allowed Colin Powell 63 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 6: to become the first black Chairmlin Joint chiefs? Is that 64 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 6: woke us? Is it wokeness that you had as General 65 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 6: Charles I'll forget this lasting in a moment.

That's 78 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,919 Speaker 4: a blessing with her implying sure, that's a very insulting 79 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 4: thing to say to Colon Powell. There was a time 80 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 4: in the military where you were not allowed to rise 81 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,239 Speaker 4: up through the ranks if you were black or a woman. 82 00:04:58,320 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: I get it. 83 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,479 Speaker 2: That was bad.

No, of course not no, 106 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 5: that was reasonable. Was it wokeness to recognize the Tuskegee Airman?

Again, It's not just him. 115 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 4: That's the whole DEI argument of why it needs to 116 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 4: exist that people will not You won't have anybody but 117 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 4: straight white males if you don't have DEI what are 118 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 4: you saying when you say that?

Is that what you're saying. 122 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 5: I'm not saying, man crazy, Only lefties say that. So 123 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 5: Pete Hegzeth goes on to say, he explains what he 124 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 5: called the Golden rule, the new Golden rule for the military. 125 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 5: You will give to your unit what you expect your 126 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 5: unit to give to you. There will be no weak 127 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 5: links or weak links or lowered standards, so that you know, 128 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 5: one hundred and twelve pound women who couldn't possibly carry 129 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 5: a big, strong trooper out of harm's way are part 130 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 5: of the unit. No, everybody's going to be fit to serve. 131 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 5: And he summarizes it here in clips sixty seven. 132 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 3: This means at the war department, first and foremost, we 133 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 3: must restore a ruthless, dispassionate, and common sense application of standards. 134 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 3: I don't want my son serving alongside troops or out 135 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 3: of shape or in combat unit females who can't meet 136 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 3: the same combat arms physical standards as men.

If not, they're not standards, they're just suggestions, 141 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 3: suggestions that get our sons. 142 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 4: And daughters killed. If we can't understand how obviously that 143 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 4: is the right thing to do, then we deserve to 144 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 4: be taken over by China. 145 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, I would agree.

Actually, 150 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 4: i've heard these stories. That's no knock on any woman 151 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 4: who can do the same physical thing as a man, 152 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:10,719 Speaker 4: because something some can. 153 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 2: But if you can't understand the difference, then you're just 154 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 2: an idiot. 155 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 5: Well right, exactly, you're an idiot, and I have no 156 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 5: time for your idiotic arguments. 157 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 1: I'm trying to find somebody blasted back in the media. 158 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 5: If Pete Heggsth believes women don't have a role in 159 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 5: armed forces as I've said more than once people don't 160 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 5: resort to stupid arguments because they're keeping their good ones 161 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 5: safeer tomorrow.

That's a classic. 568 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 2: We will finish strong. 569 00:29:52,560 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 8: Next Congress has to agree on a new spending deal 570 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 8: in the next twenty four hours or the government will 571 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 8: shut down tomorrow at midnight. You know, these are crazy 572 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 8: times when the government is about to shut down and 573 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 8: Americans are. 574 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 1: Like, honestly, maybe we could all use a break. 575 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 2: I'm good.

I'm not going 578 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,280 Speaker 4: to talk about it in any reality. But it is 579 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 4: a sign that our politics are dysfunctional, that we can't 580 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 4: just figure these things out before deadlines like grown ups. 581 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a near annual occurrence, they pointed out. I 582 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 5: think it was in the New York Times going back 583 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 5: like fifty years now fifteen Now, it's practically well, it 584 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 5: was a rarity back then, but yeah, it was a possibility, 585 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:52,000 Speaker 5: but now it's every year, the jabbering about a possible 586 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 5: shut down and the media desperately trying to get you interested, 587 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 5: like a four touchdown deficit football game. 588 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, they did the thing yesterday that they always do. 589 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 4: Here's a military wife with her two babies, and they're 590 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 4: not going to get their paycheckhnce, you'll you'll get on 591 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 4: time or a day later when they figured this all 592 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 4: out and everything will be fine. 593 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 2: So whatever. 594 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 4: So I just saw I don't follow the WNBA. That's 595 00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 4: the women's NBA basketball. The Indiana Fever are a game 596 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 4: away from the finals. That's the team that Caitlin Kark 597 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 4: Clark based for, and she got hurt, like what a 598 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 4: month and a half ago. For the season, she's not 599 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:36,720 Speaker 4: on the team. What are they gonna do for the 600 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 4: whole that whole vibe because they weren't doing that well. 601 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 2: I don't know. That's kind of an interesting thing. 602 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 4: Your best player goes down and you do well, you 603 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 4: do better, you're playing better without her. 604 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:49,240 Speaker 1: Whoops whoops. 605 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 4: In real sports, the Major League Baseball playoff starts day. 606 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 4: In playoff baseball is completely different than regular season baseball, 607 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 4: and it's so exciting and they got three games series, 608 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 4: which is fun because the games really really matter in the. 609 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 2: Three game series. And you got some good ones. 610 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:13,400 Speaker 4: You got Podres, Cubs, whoever, Dodgers, Reds, Red Sox, Yankees, 611 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 4: all starting today, So that'll be some fun baseball. And 612 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 4: it's going all day long. If you're a baseball fan, 613 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:19,719 Speaker 4: you can flip around and find it somewhere. 614 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. 615 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:23,719 Speaker 5: I was thinking about that the other day because I've 616 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 5: loved baseball since i was a little kid, and I've 617 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 5: kind of drifted away from Major League Baseball watching it, 618 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:35,120 Speaker 5: and I was thinking, there needs to be and you 619 00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 5: can probably get this, I know, on like YouTube TV 620 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 5: if you tune into a sports game. 621 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 1: One of the. 622 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 5: Options it's a start from the beginning, join it live, 623 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 5: or catch up through key plays. 624 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, And you know, if. 625 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 5: I could just get like key plays and then watch 626 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 5: the last three innings, and I realized, this is twenty 627 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 5: first century schizoid man with no yeah, because sometimes it's 628 00:32:58,520 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 5: banning the rest of them because sometimes he. 629 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 2: And you know what at the time is the fifth inning? 630 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:03,720 Speaker 1: All right? 631 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 5: Right, That's one of the things I've always liked about 632 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 5: baseball as opposed to the NBA. You could literally just 633 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 5: tune in the last five minutes of every NBA. 634 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:16,280 Speaker 1: Or as in baseball or football. 635 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 5: For that matter, hockey, you might have missed the most exciting, 636 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 5: crucial part. 637 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:21,800 Speaker 1: But anyway, Yeah, I just. 638 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 4: It's also interesting the difference of the NFL has and 639 00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 4: the hole it has on America of not being a 640 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 4: regional sport. It doesn't matter that the two teams that 641 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 4: are on Monday night or Sunday Night are eight hundred 642 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 4: miles from you. It's still an interesting game with playoff 643 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 4: implications that you watch if you're a football plan fan, 644 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:43,760 Speaker 4: which it's just not true for baseball. Baseball people almost 645 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 4: entirely follow if their local. 646 00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:47,400 Speaker 2: Team is in it. Otherwise they don't. 647 00:33:47,480 --> 00:34:02,680 Speaker 9: That's just the way the ratings work. 648 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 4: I'm fully jumping on the Mariners bandwagon, though I'm going 649 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:10,759 Speaker 4: to follow them absolutely. They're not in the playoff in 650 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 4: the wild card round, but I'm all over that team. 651 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:16,160 Speaker 4: Let's get some final thoughts.

There is 654 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 5: pressing the buttons in the control room. Our technical director 655 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 5: of Michael Ashleoll, Michael what's you final thought? 656 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:25,920 Speaker 11: Yeah, we were talking about Halloween costumes. 657 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 1: I don't know why I didn't think about this. 658 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 11: If you're a couple, you got to go as Taylor 659 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 11: Swift and Travis Kelcey. 660 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 2: Oh, Taylor's such a great idea. Wears a wedding dress, 661 00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:35,719 Speaker 2: Travis Kelcey in a tucks. 662 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:38,399 Speaker 11: Then you have groom's men or bridesmaids along side. 663 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 5: Do you know, well, if they're standard wedding garb, how would. 664 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 1: You know who they are? No? I would go with 665 00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 1: Chief's jersey. 666 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, I disagree with For my final thought, this is 667 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 4: the perfect one. As a dude, you get to wear 668 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:58,280 Speaker 4: a football jersey, right and be comfortable. As the chick. 669 00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:01,279 Speaker 4: You get to wear a short skirt me boots because 670 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:02,600 Speaker 4: you want to look hot on Halloween. 671 00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's perfect custom perfect costume for young people. 672 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 2: You're right, Michael. 673 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,160 Speaker 5: Yes, And if I had a time machine and could 674 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 5: take it back twenty five years, I. 675 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,880 Speaker 1: Would maybe probably not do that anyway. 676 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:18,360 Speaker 5: My final thought is speaking of couples, turns out people 677 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:20,360 Speaker 5: are much more likely. 678 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:23,920 Speaker 1: To marry someone. 679 00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 5: With the same or similar psychiatric diagnoses as themselves. Really depression, anxiety, ADHD, autism, 680 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 5: bipolar disorder OCD, anorexia. People tend to marry people who 681 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,279 Speaker 5: have the same challenge, and that's. 682 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:39,799 Speaker 2: Probably a good thing, right, because you can understand each other. 683 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,000 Speaker 1: I think sometimes it is.
