1 00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:05,680 Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio of the 2 00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:10,760 Speaker 1: George Washington Broadcast Center. Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty Armstrong 3 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:25,840 Speaker 1: and Jettie and he Armstrong and Yetty. 4 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 2: Keepers gave Punch that stuffed animal, which is from Swedish 5 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 2: furniture brand Ikea. 6 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 1: It sells for just under twenty bucks. 7 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 2: Punch's mom became a popular item after his overnight fame, 8 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 2: and Ikea store in Singapore said the plushy has been 9 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 2: sold out since Monday. On auction sites they're going for 10 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:45,240 Speaker 2: as much as three hundred and fifty bucks. 11 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 1: So this is a story of Punch the monkey. We 12 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:53,440 Speaker 1: talked a little bit about yesterday that's gone national, about 13 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 1: the little monkey that was abandoned by its mom and 14 00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: then shunned by the rest of the tribe. Group. What 15 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 1: do you call a group of monkeys? Heard? Heard? It 16 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,920 Speaker 1: depends on the monkey. But anyway, the monkey is not 17 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 1: a euphemism for oh it is anything. Oh it is 18 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,320 Speaker 1: absolutely is. Don't be knocking my hobbies. Let's not. Let's 19 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: think of these all confused. But Punch is just the 20 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: name of a monkey. And so they gave the monkey 21 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: a little stuffed animal, and then it seemed to be 22 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,399 Speaker 1: feeling a little better for the companionship since its mom 23 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 1: had abandoned it, and then the tribe the monkey, the 24 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 1: rest of the monkeys had shunned it, and it really 25 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: got attached to stuffed animal. And now the stuffed animals 26 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: sold out because that's what we do. And I don't 27 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 1: know why, and I don't know why all these things happen. 28 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: I don't know who you are. I feel like I 29 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: don't know, have never known any of the people that 30 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 1: participate in these sorts of things as much. I may 31 00:01:54,480 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 1: be the bitterest, most anti internet trend personalive, and I've 32 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 1: got a couple that, as I said yesterday, make me 33 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: want to commit mass murder this though I was thinking 34 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: about it, Is this just advertising people? An enormous number 35 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: of people became aware that there is a stuffed animal 36 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: that looks like this, and they thought, oh, that's a 37 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: love let. It appeals to them for whatever reason, any 38 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: stuffed animal appeals to anybody, and they bought it. I 39 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: don't know, or is it a bunch of lemmings who 40 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 1: just do what they see online. It's all ironically like 41 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: your girlfriend's into the punch of the monkey story. Oh, 42 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:33,080 Speaker 1: and you get her the monkey. Oh that's kind of sweet. 43 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: You're a good boyfriend. Well done, sir or madam. Don't 44 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:41,639 Speaker 1: don't tell unless your boyfriend ever visited Epstein Island. That's 45 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 1: my transition. Ah, that's a good one. Hillary Clinton's going 46 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: to testify. I'm just look watching the news all the 47 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:52,519 Speaker 1: different TV stations. See I'm like, I'm there. I'm looking 48 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,079 Speaker 1: at NBC's got it right now, ABC's got it right now, 49 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: CNN's got it right now. All are reporting about Hillary 50 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 1: testifying in the whole Epstein even though she didn't have 51 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,359 Speaker 1: that much to do with it. I had something good 52 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,920 Speaker 1: on that since I just brought it up myself. I 53 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 1: meant to suggest to the fellows, we got to have 54 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 1: that Clinton thing, like have her say it three times 55 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: in a row. It's too short. It doesn't translate, as 56 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: they say in the show business business Clinton, Clinton, Clinton, 57 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,800 Speaker 1: There you go, a lot of people are dropping the 58 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: tea on Clinton if you're a young person now for 59 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 1: some reason. AnyWho, this is what's really going on with 60 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 1: the ebscene story in White's the lead story on MSNBC 61 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 1: all day long, and it's gonna get a fair amount 62 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: of attention. It's both real and not real at the 63 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: same time. So we're still finding stuff, or news organizations 64 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 1: or finding stuff because it was three million documents and 65 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: thousands of hours of video and hundreds of thousands of pictures. 66 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: So it takes a long time to go through all 67 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 1: that stuff. And I think it's NPR that first found this. 68 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: Now number of news organizations are on it, on it. 69 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: There's an index somewhere in the Epstein files of all 70 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: the FBI investigations that had been done. The index indicates 71 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: that there were interviews with a woman, an underage woman 72 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: claiming she had sex with Donald Trump. The index says 73 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: there are interviews like that. The memos regarding the interviews 74 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: don't exist. They weren't released. It looks like like a 75 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 1: hall like all the other ones, like you know, and 76 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 1: there's all kinds of crap in there. As we talked 77 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: about a couple of weeks ago, there's a there's a 78 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 1: they interviewed a woman to try to nail down whether 79 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: she actually was at a party and saw George hw Bush. 80 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: Now this is harsh. Now, this is not for the case. 81 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 1: If a woman was at a party and saw George 82 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: hw Bush rape a baby, then cut it into pieces 83 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:59,719 Speaker 1: with a knife, cut out the intestines, and then eat 84 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,720 Speaker 1: the contents of it. That's what it says in one 85 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: of the memos. Now, maybe you're capable of believing that 86 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:11,239 Speaker 1: actually happened. I'm not. The FBI was not. They basically 87 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: said this person is a crackpot. They couldn't substantiate any 88 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: of the things a person said, but the letters. It 89 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: turned out and not George st That may be my 90 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: darkest joke effort. That is, uh, where were we? So 91 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: they hang onto that stuff doing an investigation, because that's 92 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: what you do, you hang on to all this paperwork. 93 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 1: But they never pursued it or anything. It doesn't mean anything. Well, 94 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: it means there's a crackpot somewhere that either said that 95 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 1: to get their jollies or actually believes it. Who knows, 96 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 1: which this Trump thing is almost certainly the same sort 97 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,039 Speaker 1: of thing. It's somebody who said some stuff. They looked 98 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 1: into it and decided there's no there. There were not 99 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,720 Speaker 1: enough there to investigate any further. But including in the 100 00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 1: years the Democrats were in charge of everything. But it 101 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: looks like maybe Trump's Justice Department held back that stuff, 102 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 1: and that doesn't look good. That's a bad look. They 103 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 1: didn't want the George hw Bush memo by raping and 104 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: eating a baby. They didn't want that, even though it's 105 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 1: fanciful and ridiculous, and the FBI said there's no there there. 106 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: They didn't want the testimony of the woman out, so 107 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:28,159 Speaker 1: they didn't really Your introduction that it was both a 108 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: real and not real controversy, yeah, I think they actually 109 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: held back stuff that would have looked bad for Trump, 110 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: even though it's not real, or at least it wasn't 111 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 1: real enough to pursue as as an investigation or a prosecution, 112 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 1: and which I ends up doing them more harm than good. 113 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: I sure, yeah, you know, I haven't seen the information. Obviously, 114 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 1: I would be tempted to say no, no, no, no. Number one, 115 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: we can't do that because the cover up is always 116 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,160 Speaker 1: what screws you. And number two, when the media goes 117 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:03,039 Speaker 1: crazy over what is clearly a crack pot report, we 118 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: can discredit them further. So it's fine. I'll read the 119 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: haven't seen the content, I'll read the APS version, and 120 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: there's lots of versions of it out there. The announcement 121 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: followed news reports saying that a massive tranche of records 122 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 1: released by the Justice Startment. Department did not include several 123 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: summaries of interviews that the FBI conducted with an unidentified 124 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: woman who came forward after Epstein's twenty nineteen arrest and 125 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 1: claimed to have been sexually assaulted by both Trump and 126 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: Epstein when she was a minor in the eighties. I 127 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: know people personally, well MSNBC for instance, they are just 128 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: they are just reporting this as if well, this is 129 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: self Evidently he was either guilty or guilty enough that 130 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 1: they had to hide these I think it's dumb that 131 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 1: they held them back, and it's doing them more harm 132 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: than good. I'll just read from Mark Alpern's news summary today. 133 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 1: If the Biden administration had real information that this was 134 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: a serious accusation, they would have prosecuted Trump. Oh the sleep. Yeah, 135 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: they went to extraordinary links to make up crap with 136 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: which to prosecute him, or for which to prosecute him. 137 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 3: Yeah. 138 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: The idea that the Biden administration would have held onto 139 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: this information and kept in secret is no, It's beyond idiotic. 140 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: Nobody could believe it unless they were, you know, going 141 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 1: on leave anything going on. To this particular pundit's point 142 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: of view, the dirty little secret here is the identity 143 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 1: and credibility of the accuser. The FBI apparently didn't think 144 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: it was credible enough. But that will that person come 145 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: forward if they're still alive. But the failure to release 146 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 1: the documents originally as an act of either incompetence or 147 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: cover up, and we're about to find out before too 148 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 1: long which it was. Why did you do that? I 149 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: think it's probably cover up. I doubt it's just a 150 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: coincident of all those gazillions of documents that it was 151 00:08:55,640 --> 00:09:01,079 Speaker 1: incompetence and not releasing those. Yeah, yeah, Trump has he 152 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: covered up a non crime, which people do all the 153 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 1: time and it makes them look guilty. Yeah. I know 154 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 1: it's going to be inconvenient when it comes out, but 155 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,200 Speaker 1: just let it come out. Trump has kind of like 156 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: a DEI for loyal people. People are loyal to a fault, 157 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 1: even if they're not quite qualified. He keeps them in place. 158 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: And I get it. After the first term and his 159 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: ill treatment by the media and the swamp and the 160 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 1: rest of it, I understand it to some extent. But yeah, 161 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: some of his folks I don't think are serving him well. 162 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 1: They're not the sharpest tools in the drawer. Well, they 163 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: might have. They might have thought with millions of pages, 164 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: nobody was going to catch on to this. But people 165 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: are still digging, and there's an index that references these documents, 166 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: and now they're not there. So yeah, this now you know, 167 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 1: you just you handed your opponents a good weapon on 168 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: this one. Yeah, unfortunate. Speaking of handing people weapons and 169 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: using them, we're about to be at war with Iran. 170 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 1: Why don't we talk about the very last round of 171 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: talks that are happening today, what we're asking and what 172 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 1: Iran is saying about it. Here's a hint, no blank 173 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: in waye, there's an agreement. Here's a good headline. Uber's 174 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: set to launch flying taxis in Dubai. Well, if I 175 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: ever find myself needing to get from here to there 176 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: in Dubai, I will take a look. Is that coming 177 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 1: to La or any other clogged metro area. It'd be 178 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 1: pretty cool until, as you're always predicting, the air is 179 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 1: clogged with them and the deaths come fast and furious 180 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 1: because we have no way to keep anybody in a lane. 181 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 1: Bodies and planes raining from the sky. Yes, that would 182 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 1: be probably. Okay. We got more on the ways to 183 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: hear I finally. 184 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 4: Bloomberg published an article this week on the cheaper cuts 185 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 4: of beef Americans are consuming amid rising prices. 186 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: You know what that means. The mccuff is back. I 187 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: don't come. On a more serious note, US envoys Steve 188 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 1: Whitkoff and Jared Kushner are entering a crucial round of 189 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: talks over Iran's nuke program today. They are coming with 190 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,560 Speaker 1: tough demands, according to the Journal, under pressure from hawks 191 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: in the administration, Republicans in Congress do not agree to 192 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 1: a deal that could be criticized as soft. That's an 193 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: interesting way to characterize it. I would characterize it as 194 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: you don't want to agree to a deal that doesn't 195 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 1: work and ends up with the Iran having nukes. Damn 196 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 1: liberal journalists anyway. In the talks now underway in Geneva, 197 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 1: the US negotiators are expected to make clear Iran must 198 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: dismantle its three main nuclear sites four to OHO. You 199 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:53,559 Speaker 1: may recall that as a smoking wreck hulk. Recently Natans 200 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 1: and Isfan, so they need to dismantle those three sites 201 00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: and deliver all of their remaining enriched uranium to the US. 202 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 1: So far, the Iranians have said ironically pound sad and 203 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 1: I would imagine with some pretty strict and real uh 204 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:14,679 Speaker 1: you know, getting in there and looking at the sites 205 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:18,200 Speaker 1: and all that sort of stuff, inspections in a way 206 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,200 Speaker 1: that they you know, oftentimes we've agreed to inspections and 207 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:26,560 Speaker 1: then you let them slide. Which side. Yeah, yeah, Iran, 208 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: of course is weren't It would treat any attack, whoever 209 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 1: limited is a trigger for an all out response. Spicy times. So, 210 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: speaking of the international scene, Americans are leaving the United 211 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: States in unprecedented numbers, and we'll tell you why coming 212 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 1: up later on in the hour. People like Rosie O'Donnell 213 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: and Ellen Degeneroes. You mean that kind of leavings. It's 214 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 1: more economics, okay. I can't wait to see the leaks 215 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 1: start to come out on the Grilla and the Hillary Quinton. Oh. 216 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: We also need to talk more about the attack on 217 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 1: that boat that was headed to Cuban. What's going on there? 218 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 1: And Marco Rubio is being a grown up, one of 219 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: the few grown ups that left it seemed to be 220 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:12,679 Speaker 1: in the world, saying well, We're going to wait till 221 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: we get the facts and I'll comment on it after that. No, No, 222 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 1: that's not what you do you you jump to an assumption? Yeah? Yeah, 223 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: who knows that the realm of possibilities for what might 224 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 1: happen coming out of this are enormous virtually anything, and 225 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: yet inaction is its own action. So well, I'll find 226 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: out together, I guess. So do we have time for this? Yeah, 227 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 1: I guess we do. In it's two hundred and fiftieth 228 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 1: years America, land of immigration becoming a country of immigration. 229 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: Last year more people moved out than moved in for 230 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: the first time since the Great Depression. Now part of 231 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: it is immigration, obviously, I was thinking how much of 232 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: it is then a significant amount, but I wouldn't get 233 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,840 Speaker 1: hung up on that statistic. America's own citizens are leaving 234 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:03,680 Speaker 1: in record numbers, replanting themselves and their families in lands 235 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: they find more affordable, original safe. Yeah. Actually they mentioned 236 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: in the cobblestone streets of Lisbon. So many Americans are 237 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,559 Speaker 1: snapping up apartments that the newest arrivals complain they mostly 238 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 1: hear English, not Portuguese in their neighborhood. I know three 239 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 1: families going to Portugal. One has already gone tour headed. Wow, 240 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 1: that's crazy. I know one of every fifteen residents in 241 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 1: Dublin's trendy Grand Canal Dock district was born in the US, 242 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 1: which is a higher percentage than the Americans born in 243 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 1: Ireland during the giant nineteenth century Potato famine influx of 244 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 1: Irish people. So we're in We're they got to have 245 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 1: an Alis Island or something over there for all the 246 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 1: Americans flowing into Ireland. In Bali, Colombian Thailand, the strains 247 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 1: of housing American remote workers paid in dollars have inspired 248 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: locals to mount protests against a wave of gentrification. So 249 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 1: it's a lot of remote work is one factor here, 250 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: but also real estate prices have I find so fast 251 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: in the US. You sell your place in the US, 252 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:07,800 Speaker 1: you realize all of that on paper wealth you've accumulated. 253 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 1: Then you go to a country that a is much 254 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: cheaper to live in. B is a little more like 255 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 1: America used to be in that every town has its 256 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: own stores, is more laid back, there's no strip mall. Hell, 257 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: you get a nice place with a nice view, you 258 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 1: sip coffee down at the cafe, and it's a pretty 259 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: nice lifestyle for a lot of people. Let's see, it's 260 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 1: not some people are trying to characterize it as what 261 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 1: do they call it, the trumpex it is or something, 262 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 1: But it's not No, no, no, no no, the man. I just, 263 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not built the way other people are built. 264 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 1: But the last thing I would want to do is 265 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 1: go somewhere where everybody in the neighborhood in this foreign 266 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: country is from the United States. I just, I don't know. 267 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 1: That's not what I want, but yeah, I would like 268 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 1: some of each. Here's this gal who moved to Yucatan, 269 00:15:56,800 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 1: Mexico in twenty twenty four, and she has a company 270 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 1: that organizes scouting trips for clients. When they started this 271 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four, they organized three scouting trips. This 272 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: year it will be fifty seven. Wow. Our goal, she says, 273 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 1: is to move one million Americans. Oh yeah, here it is. 274 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 1: Some commentators have idiotically labeled this wave of American immigrants 275 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: the Donald dash blah blah blah. But it's not. Yeah. 276 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: One of the Portuguese families that I know specifically are 277 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 1: leaving because the country is so awful under drump or 278 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: that's what they claim. They're crazy people and silly, although 279 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: they're very wealthy. They're a handful of European countries that 280 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 1: I've been to that I would live there. I would 281 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 1: willingly live there, absolutely just extremely pleasant and laid back. Well, yeah, 282 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 1: to me, that's not the problem. It's am I going 283 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 1: to live that far away from my kids and then 284 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 1: try to figure out how often we get together and 285 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 1: all that sort of stuff. That's the main reason I don't, right, 286 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 1: we don't yeah, touch family, too many ties here, But 287 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:00,480 Speaker 1: I get it. What did you have next? You have 288 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 1: something good? Oh well, we were going to talk about 289 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 1: that absolutely horrific release of a child rapist. He raped 290 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,920 Speaker 1: children over and over again, and Gavin Newsom in California 291 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 1: are going to set them loose for the worst of 292 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:15,119 Speaker 1: the woke reasons. It's really really maddening. Stay tuned for 293 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 1: that story, Armstrong and Getty. 294 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 3: If he gets out, you know, who knows if he'll 295 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 3: do it again. You know, I was told that he 296 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 3: fantasizes still about you know, children and stuff like, why 297 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,120 Speaker 3: would you let this man out? If this is what 298 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,200 Speaker 3: this man is saying. You know, when he gets out, 299 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 3: how do you not know if he will continue? He's 300 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 3: a serial sex offender. 301 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,919 Speaker 1: And it is a description of a California child molester 302 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 1: once described by a judge is quote the monster parents 303 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 1: fear the most. David Allen Funston, who a Sacramento County 304 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:58,400 Speaker 1: jury found guilty of sixteen felony counts for a series 305 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 1: of abductions and rape of children involving children younger than seven. 306 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 1: He received more than twenty years in prison, plus three 307 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 1: consecutive terms of twenty five years to life consecutive, so 308 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:19,120 Speaker 1: three life sentences, well, twenty five years to life. Yeah, wow, 309 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: you got a baster guy to get that. After serving 310 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,639 Speaker 1: more than two decades behind bars, he became eligible for 311 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: consideration under California's elderly parole program. Let me cut to 312 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 1: the chase here, Gavin Newsom and the progressives in California, 313 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 1: and Gavey, by the way, says I'm against releasing this guy. 314 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 1: Gave has enthusiastically endorsed every single piece of legislation that 315 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 1: has led to these monsters being turned loose on the streets, 316 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 1: monsters various sorts. So now he claims he's against it. 317 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,919 Speaker 1: That is hypocrisy of the worst sort. But anyway, the 318 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: woke in California have been have come up with half 319 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 1: a dozen different ways to turn everybody loose from prison. 320 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:01,159 Speaker 1: They can whether, Oh, you're just in prison because of 321 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 1: your race, You're just in prison because you're transgender, you're 322 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:07,400 Speaker 1: just in prison because whatever you're old. We should turn 323 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,400 Speaker 1: them loose too. They're trying to empty out the prisons, 324 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 1: and this guy is just a particularly egregious case of 325 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,400 Speaker 1: My god, how could we even consider that. Longtime friend 326 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,679 Speaker 1: of the Armstrong Yetty show sac is Sacramento County Sheriff 327 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 1: Jim Cooper weighing in, there are some folk to deserve. 328 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:24,959 Speaker 5: A second chance in life. Some of that does these 329 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:28,400 Speaker 5: type of things. They don't deserve a second chance in life. 330 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 5: What are we coming to with a society here in 331 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 5: California that it's okay with this to let him out? 332 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 1: Well, you're ignoring science. If you give a second chance 333 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 1: to someone who rapes and abducts children, their brains don't work, 334 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: they don't get better, they don't at some point say 335 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 1: ah as a youthful indiscretion or whatever, like some crimes 336 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: can be You don't get fixed. At least, there's never 337 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,399 Speaker 1: been any science to show that that you can be fixed. 338 00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:59,439 Speaker 1: Whatever is wrong with you is still wrong with you. 339 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 1: And how well is the guy that's getting out sixty 340 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 1: four like I said the other day, when I was young, 341 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 1: you might have convinced me that, well, somebody who's sixty 342 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: four no longer has any sexual interests. Now that I'm 343 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 1: in my sixties, I realized that's not true. So that 344 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: guy's as dangerous as he ever was, right, Coop, Sheriff 345 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 1: Cooper goes on. 346 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,679 Speaker 5: And in California, it's a battle after battle when it 347 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 5: comes to our children. A few years ago, we're fighting 348 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 5: human trafficking of a child that wasn't a violent felony, 349 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:29,200 Speaker 5: had to fight to get it passed. 350 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: They got it passed. 351 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 5: Now we're dealing with mental health. The version you can 352 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 5: kill your one year old infant and get your record 353 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:37,879 Speaker 5: a sponge and go work with other kids. 354 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 1: What the hell is going on in California? What is 355 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,919 Speaker 1: happening in our state? This cannot happen, is not okay. 356 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 1: So the Department of Corrections Parole Board said, yeah, we're 357 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:54,439 Speaker 1: gonna turn this guy loose. Gave Gov. Gav knowing, oh 358 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:57,119 Speaker 1: my god, this is going to really queer my presidential hopes. 359 00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:00,200 Speaker 1: Refer the case back to the Parole Board Ord of 360 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,360 Speaker 1: Parole Hearings for further review by a majority. Blah blah, blah, 361 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 1: and at a recent meeting, the board panel reaffirmed its decision, 362 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 1: recommending that Funston received parole. This could be his Willie 363 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,440 Speaker 1: Horton if you're old enough to remember that with Michael 364 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 1: Ducaccus way back in the day. Yeah, they had a 365 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:19,120 Speaker 1: letting people out thing going there in his home state 366 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 1: as a presidential candidate, and it haunted him the entire 367 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 1: time he ran against hw Bush. Sheriff Cooper said he 368 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 1: personally reviewed the original case reports and victim statements and 369 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 1: questioned how the Parole Board could reach a different conclusion. 370 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,400 Speaker 1: And I quote, what's ironic is the parole board read 371 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,640 Speaker 1: the same reports that I'm reading. How the hell did 372 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,240 Speaker 1: they come to the conclusion that they did versus what 373 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 1: I came to. Another friend of the Armstrong and Getty show, 374 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: Kevin Kylie, the congressman who will be districted or Jerry 375 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: manderd out of his seat by Gavin Newsom, soon said this. 376 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 6: I mean, this is an individual who has described at 377 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 6: his sentence in hearing by the judge as the monster 378 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:56,959 Speaker 6: that parents fear most. The judge said, there is no 379 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,639 Speaker 6: man on earth that is deserving of this sentence as 380 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,439 Speaker 6: you he got three life sentences. He had sixteen counts 381 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 6: of kidnapping and child molestation. He had at least eight 382 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,720 Speaker 6: victims ages four to seven that he would d to 383 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 6: his car using candy and toys. 384 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 1: He would kidnap them, use them. 385 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,120 Speaker 6: To less them, leave them on the side of the road. 386 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,400 Speaker 6: So this is absolutely horrifying. 387 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: That is literally like the textbook worst case nightmare for parents. 388 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 1: Sacramento County District Attorney Tien Hoe sharply criticized the decision 389 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 1: in a statement, quote, this defendant is the worst of 390 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: the worst, a child predator who lures, grabs, kidnaps, and 391 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:39,119 Speaker 1: assaults children. He will reoffend and is a taking time bomb. 392 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:43,120 Speaker 1: We vehemently opposed the early release of this extremely violent predator. 393 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,919 Speaker 1: This is yet another example that highlights how elder parole 394 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,679 Speaker 1: is a broken law that results in broken promises and 395 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: broken lives. That's out righteous story, it is. Yeah, it's 396 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 1: so your is that the Marxists are all for throwing 397 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: open the prisons and causing chaos and all that sort 398 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,400 Speaker 1: of stuff. Yeah. For instance, it's say, it's a fundamental 399 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: plank of the Democratic Socialists of America to decarceerate all 400 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:18,439 Speaker 1: the inmates, but the people that go along with this, 401 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 1: that just you know, think they're doing the right thing. 402 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 1: How do you come to this conclusion. I don't know 403 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 1: what's wrong with your brain. They're just very weak willed. 404 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,919 Speaker 1: The Marxist hit them with a quasi moral sounding argument. 405 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 1: These people have served many years in prison. Now they're elderly. 406 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:38,160 Speaker 1: It's if you're over fifty, for God's sake, and now 407 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 1: we should look at them and maybe see if they're rehability. 408 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 1: I don't care if you're ninety eight. If you lured 409 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:46,360 Speaker 1: a four year old to your car with candy, then 410 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 1: rape the girl, you don't ever get out why they Yeah, 411 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 1: I'd be all for beating them to death with a hammer. 412 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 1: So I'm pretty hardcore on this. Well, i'd love to 413 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 1: see you on the parole board. Yeah, what if you 414 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,640 Speaker 1: did that over and over and over again the state 415 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:03,399 Speaker 1: of cal he wants to turn you loose. It's astonishing. 416 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 1: But I knew a guy personally who had a life 417 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 1: sentence for murder, who had it commuted, and he was 418 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:16,159 Speaker 1: one hundred percent. I was one hundred percent okay with 419 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 1: the fact that he got out. He'd been in for 420 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: twenty almost twenty years. He killed a guy at a 421 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,680 Speaker 1: party with a gun when he was nineteen his gang 422 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 1: adjacent and it was other gang bangers around. And when 423 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 1: he was nineteen years old as a and he was 424 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,159 Speaker 1: drunk and everything like that. Anyway, he got sober in prison. 425 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: He I knew him after I knew him, and he 426 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,400 Speaker 1: was forty years old, and he got his sentence commuted 427 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 1: by Jerry Brown for some reason, like he had no idea. 428 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:50,359 Speaker 1: He thought he was going to spend the rest of 429 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: his life in prison with no reason to think he 430 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 1: wouldn't wow, And Jerry Brown commuted his sentence and he 431 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,880 Speaker 1: got out, and he I don't know, just the time 432 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: I spent with him, seemed like person that you know, 433 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 1: it's the classic you were young and stupid and did 434 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 1: something young and stupid, and you're not going to do 435 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 1: that again. There's no reason for me to think he's 436 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,120 Speaker 1: ever even gonna own a gun again, let alone everybody 437 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 1: who's in a situation like he was in certainly does 438 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 1: not show a proclivity to do that over and over. 439 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:20,880 Speaker 1: I mean, it's not like it's something inside of him, 440 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 1: So I get the difference. It's exact same human does. 441 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 1: It's exact opposite of people whose brains are wired in 442 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,640 Speaker 1: such a way that they have sexual desire for four 443 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 1: year olds. That doesn't get fixed ever. Yeah, yeah, I 444 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 1: actually have a small reserve of sympathy for a guy 445 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 1: like that, not not ultimately, but you know what I 446 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 1: mean is that he's tortured by urges that lead him 447 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: to do the most despicable things you can imagine. Will 448 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 1: always be tortured by those urges. But I'm an adult, 449 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 1: so I can think, Man, that must suck, and you 450 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 1: must be kept away from humans, especially children, until you 451 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:05,080 Speaker 1: are dead. It'sself evident. Gavin's got to be worried about this, 452 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 1: and again his protestations are hilarious. This is the fruit 453 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:17,480 Speaker 1: of the trees he planted with enthusiasm. He ran these 454 00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:23,640 Speaker 1: policies through. Yeah. Man, that's a troubling story. Oh well, 455 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 1: I think enough folks in enough places, and Gavin himself, 456 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,119 Speaker 1: the lying hypocrite, are aware of the horror of this 457 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 1: that I suspect it won't happen. But we'll see, We'll 458 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,679 Speaker 1: let you know. Certainly. I was speaking of crime in California. 459 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 1: I got to dig into the head of the LA 460 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 1: School District, the second biggest school district in America, he's 461 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,720 Speaker 1: got the FBI going through his house and coming through 462 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: his records and stuff like that. Yeah, what's going on there? 463 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 1: So you got at least one of the women's hockey 464 00:26:56,119 --> 00:27:01,199 Speaker 1: teams that has come out and said some anti Trump stuff, 465 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,359 Speaker 1: anti the men going to the White House stuff, and 466 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,679 Speaker 1: why you gotta do that? Just just shut up and 467 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:13,919 Speaker 1: stick handle all right? Anyway, So maybe we'll get to that. 468 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,119 Speaker 1: I don't know. It kind of makes me tired. I 469 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 1: hope you can stick around. 470 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 4: Duncan has begun offering iced coffee and forty eight ounce 471 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 4: buckets that have a handle, lid and straw, which is 472 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 4: handy because after forty eight ounces of coffee and you're 473 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 4: gonna need a bucket. 474 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 1: That's one of the reasons I switched to espresso shots 475 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 1: mostly for my coffee. I just pee less, but I 476 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 1: get my caffeine. Wow. Thanks keep us up to date. 477 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,640 Speaker 1: That's great. I just don't like the peean though, as 478 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 1: he was just hanging with old people featuring Jack Armstrong. 479 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 1: I don't think it's just old people. I don't think 480 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:54,919 Speaker 1: that seth Meyer's joke was aimed at the just the 481 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 1: old forty eight ounces of coffee and coffee is a diarretic. 482 00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 1: You're gonna peel a lot like a racehorse. You're absolutely right, 483 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 1: quick follow love coffee. Yeah, that's right. Yes, Okay. Well, 484 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:10,960 Speaker 1: during the last segment talking about the horrific child rapist 485 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 1: who's going to be released, perhaps in California because of 486 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 1: the progressive laws, a good friend of the Armstrong and 487 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 1: Getty Show, judge Larry texted, when a judge imposes a 488 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 1: sentence like that, three life sentences, it is the judge saying, 489 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:26,160 Speaker 1: based on everything I know about the crimes and the defendant, 490 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 1: the defendant of a defendant should never be released back 491 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 1: on the street, and that should carry much more weight 492 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 1: than politically appointed parole board members amen to that. I 493 00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 1: need my alert sound effect that we use, Michael whatever 494 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: or whatever that is that we play. Yeah, there you go. 495 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: Mercury is in retrograde, people, Mercury is in retrograde what 496 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: we feared the most. I don't know much of the past. 497 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 1: I don't know much about this, but I hear people 498 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: mention it now and then. And if you're into the 499 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 1: whole astrological signs thing, mercury is in retrograde starting today 500 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 1: through March twentieth, and if you're a Pisces. It is 501 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 1: going to be a doozy this year according to astrologize. 502 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:17,479 Speaker 1: Oh do you understand what that means? Not the slightest. 503 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I've heard it a million times. Well I 504 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 1: probably have too, and I could easily chat GPT if 505 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 1: I wanted to, But I don't care enough to even 506 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 1: learn about it. But it's pretty interesting to me that 507 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: astrological signs still have any aft whatsoever. But they do apparently. 508 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 1: I've talked about that online dating profiles and stuff that 509 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 1: everybody puts their their sign in there. 510 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 5: Why. 511 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: Look, I don't want to offend anything. I do. I 512 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 1: have three hundred and eighty hods. This is not one 513 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:54,480 Speaker 1: of them. Yeah, it's all ridiculous. Your head is soft. 514 00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 1: Oh you should wear a helmet everywhere you go. Oh no, 515 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 1: see that's unnecessarily. Oh no, no, good god. I think 516 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 1: I'm a different sign than I used to be because 517 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: they changed what dates are covered, and I don't care. 518 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 1: I'm still me. Shouldn't I have changed character completely when 519 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 1: that was done. Shouldn't I have become a different person 520 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 1: with a different fate when they rejiggered the calendar? Oh? 521 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 1: Of course not, because it's ridiculous. Having said what I said, 522 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 1: I did spend a good deal of my life back 523 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 1: when newspapers were a thing like an actual paper. I 524 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 1: always read the comics and it had the horoscopes at 525 00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 1: the bottom, and I always read it. I don't know why, 526 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:44,240 Speaker 1: but I always read what's it say about Pisces today? 527 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 1: And Aldrina and I You're gonna have a fantastic name. Woh, 528 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 1: blah blah. I read the fortunes and Chinese cookies fortune cookies, 529 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 1: but I don't take them seriously.

That's what we're looking for. Give 542 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,480 Speaker 1: me something to laugh at. For God's sake, whose idea 543 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 1: is this? I got to start a fortune cookie company. 544 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 1: A lot of money is coming your way. Did you 545 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:56,600 Speaker 1: ever go in San Francisco?

Maybe you know Katie, the place that makes 547 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 1: the fortune cookies there in China Town. It's like down 548 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 1: this little alley and everything like that, and it's been 549 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 1: doing it for one hundred and twenty years or something. 550 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 1: It's really cool. They were like the fortune cookie maker 551 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 1: in America for a long long time. I don't know 552 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,400 Speaker 1: if that's still the case, since the fortunes have gotten 553 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 1: so bad over the years. And my cookies too, the 554 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 1: cookie had none of that good what is that vanilla 555 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:20,560 Speaker 1: or whatever? It was terrible. It was kind of interesting 556 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 1: the way they made the cookies and pull them up 557 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:23,719 Speaker 1: like that and they get they get the note in there, 558 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 1: because that's that's not as easy as it sounds. Spend 559 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:28,960 Speaker 1: a lot of time going down alleys in Chinatown day. 560 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 1: It's a little opium, little hooker, a little whatever. I 561 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 1: don't know. I'm not judging, just asking you to take 562 00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: a wet cookie and then be able to bend it 563 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:46,480 Speaker 1: and have it dry while the fortune inside it still 564 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 1: does not get ruined on a piece of paper. Is 565 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:49,720 Speaker 1: not as simple as it sounds, if you were going 566 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,280 Speaker 1: to start out, you know, trying to craft that today? 567 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 1: Is that what the hooker told you in the alley 568 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 1: in Chinatown? Can we walked through Chinatown? Not that long ago? 569 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 1: Grant Street in San Francisco if you've never been, and 570 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 1: my kids and I and I don't know if they'd 571 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,280 Speaker 1: ever not since they were little. Anyway, The smells, my god, 572 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 1: the smells. You get some duck hung by its neck 573 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 1: in the window and it's kind of swinging around, doesn't 574 00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:16,840 Speaker 1: look too happy. Well, it should have thought of that 575 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:20,120 Speaker 1: before it committed its cries. And then a big bucket 576 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 1: of chicken feet or duck feed or whatever, big buckets 577 00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:27,520 Speaker 1: a raw chicken feet. It's a wet market, yeah, I 578 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 1: guess it is what it is, essentially, big buckets of 579 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 1: feet and beaks and all kinds of stuff like that. 580 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 1: And the smells, my god, the smells.

I guess, oh lord, oh, 583 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 1: and then you got all those stores full of stuff. 584 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: I can't imagine who buys that? Ever, how do you 585 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 1: sell any of those things? Ever?

I like this one, 596 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:26,799 Speaker 1: but it's a dead undersize. It doesn't make enough of 597 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 1: a statement.
