WEBVTT - Don't Be A Jerk. That'd Be My Rule. 0:00:01.840 --> 0:00:06.160 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George 0:00:06.200 --> 0:00:10.280 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty. 0:00:10.200 --> 0:00:12.480 Arm Strong and get taking enough he. 0:00:15.400 --> 0:00:24.279 Armstrong and Getty absolutely clear. 0:00:24.320 --> 0:00:27.360 The US Supreme Court has already had led a charitable organization, 0:00:27.440 --> 0:00:31.880 including specifically, a university can lose its tax exem status 0:00:32.040 --> 0:00:34.760 if they are violating fundamental policy. That was Bob Jones 0:00:34.880 --> 0:00:37.720 University versus the US in nineteen eighty three. They lost 0:00:37.960 --> 0:00:41.960 their tax exem status because their racist, discriminatory policies were 0:00:42.000 --> 0:00:45.280 contrary to a compelling governmental interest and to public policy. 0:00:45.400 --> 0:00:47.760 Harvard has said they will not comply with what the 0:00:47.760 --> 0:00:50.000 federal government says they need to as it relates to 0:00:50.080 --> 0:00:53.559 enforcing non discrimination policies. Of course, they can lose their 0:00:53.600 --> 0:00:56.080 federal exempt tax status. I've read through the letter that 0:00:56.160 --> 0:00:58.080 the task force sent to Harvard, and all they're asking 0:00:58.280 --> 0:01:00.760 is to come up with solutions to its own problems. 0:01:01.240 --> 0:01:03.320 That is a fellow by the name of Mark a 0:01:03.400 --> 0:01:07.280 gold Feeder, Goldfetter. He's a professor. He's obviously of a 0:01:07.319 --> 0:01:10.400 conservative bent. He may be the only conservative professor in 0:01:10.440 --> 0:01:13.080 America apparently, which is part of the reason we got 0:01:13.120 --> 0:01:16.680 to where we are the Trump administration versus Harvard. 0:01:16.680 --> 0:01:19.560 One more news clip and then we will discuss. 0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:22.480 These universities are titled and they will not stop this 0:01:22.560 --> 0:01:25.000 behavior on their own court. The only thing they seem 0:01:25.040 --> 0:01:27.760 to respond to is financial incentive. That seems to be 0:01:27.760 --> 0:01:29.920 the only lever that we can pull to stop the 0:01:30.000 --> 0:01:32.440 racist and anti submitic conduct on their canvases. 0:01:33.760 --> 0:01:37.759 So I would tend to agree with his point of view. 0:01:38.440 --> 0:01:42.959 How to affect the change is where the devil is 0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:44.000 in the details. 0:01:44.040 --> 0:01:45.039 Super interesting topic. 0:01:45.120 --> 0:01:47.560 Let me ask a very broad question before you get 0:01:47.560 --> 0:01:50.480 into the details or the intricacies, and that's where you 0:01:50.520 --> 0:01:52.720 always end up with, you know, the law, but on 0:01:52.760 --> 0:01:58.480 a very broad level, just like a macro level, why 0:01:58.480 --> 0:02:02.080 are we giving so many federals to these universities at all? 0:02:03.000 --> 0:02:06.800 I mean, like particularly like the Harvard's and the princes 0:02:06.840 --> 0:02:09.600 of the world that have endowments of billions and billions 0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:12.440 of dollars? And how much money does that generate every year? 0:02:12.600 --> 0:02:14.679 You know, with the investments and everything like that. I said, 0:02:14.720 --> 0:02:16.080 why aren't they funding themselves? 0:02:16.639 --> 0:02:16.799 Then? 0:02:16.960 --> 0:02:20.440 Secondly do we just. 0:02:20.360 --> 0:02:22.600 The brief answer to that before we get to question too, 0:02:22.639 --> 0:02:23.640 is we're paying them to. 0:02:23.560 --> 0:02:28.000 Do research when research wekendds and why can't did your 0:02:28.000 --> 0:02:30.519 research with their own money because. 0:02:30.320 --> 0:02:32.480 It benefits we the people. I'm not arguing in favor 0:02:32.480 --> 0:02:34.480 of that point of view. That would be the answer anyway. 0:02:35.000 --> 0:02:36.600 Well, I know that's what people would say, But I 0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:38.839 just don't understand that you've got billions of billions of dollars. 0:02:38.880 --> 0:02:39.720 I mean, there's enough. 0:02:39.520 --> 0:02:41.320 People that believe in Harvard and the work you do 0:02:41.600 --> 0:02:44.320 that have donated enough money over the years, and part 0:02:44.320 --> 0:02:45.800 of what you do is research. 0:02:45.520 --> 0:02:47.280 Then spend your own damn money on research. 0:02:47.320 --> 0:02:49.960 I just don't quite understand why the federal government has 0:02:50.000 --> 0:02:51.400 to give them money. If there is a reason I 0:02:51.400 --> 0:02:54.440 don't understand, feel free to text or email. Then if 0:02:54.440 --> 0:02:55.840 you are going to give a bunch of the money, 0:02:57.160 --> 0:03:02.359 do we think it's okay that you know, an administration 0:03:02.440 --> 0:03:04.280 comes in and it doesn't have to be like a 0:03:04.320 --> 0:03:08.000 specific you're not allowing like at UCLA where they weren't 0:03:08.080 --> 0:03:10.800 letting Jewish kids go to the library or whatever, even 0:03:10.840 --> 0:03:13.880 not a specific thing like on that. The current administration 0:03:14.720 --> 0:03:17.640 just doesn't like the politics of the college. Why do 0:03:17.680 --> 0:03:20.480 you have to give them the money? Why didn't you 0:03:20.760 --> 0:03:24.200 Why wouldn't it swing back and forth administration by administration. 0:03:24.760 --> 0:03:26.720 Well, you made the point earlier, and it's a good 0:03:26.800 --> 0:03:29.799 one that when the shoe is on the other foot. 0:03:29.840 --> 0:03:34.079 The Biden administration, Obama, you name, the Democratic administrations through 0:03:34.080 --> 0:03:38.320 the years absolutely insisted on the universities towing the line 0:03:38.920 --> 0:03:44.880 of progressive policies and to the point that they were 0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:49.640 a huge aid in the journey of American universities to 0:03:49.680 --> 0:03:51.760 the far far left where they are right now. 0:03:51.840 --> 0:03:54.280 Well, it didn't become an issue because all the universities 0:03:54.280 --> 0:03:57.000 are so far left and agree with what the Democratic 0:03:57.040 --> 0:03:59.520 administrations were wanting them to do. You didn't hear anything 0:03:59.520 --> 0:04:02.640 about it like share will make DII part of her thing. 0:04:02.720 --> 0:04:04.600 We love that, right. 0:04:04.720 --> 0:04:08.880 Yeah, Well, certainly a lot of Marxists have been on 0:04:09.080 --> 0:04:11.720 university campuses forever and they were more than in favor 0:04:11.760 --> 0:04:14.040 of that. But yes, it's an unholy alliance. So I 0:04:14.040 --> 0:04:16.479 couldn't decide whether to end with this thought or to 0:04:16.520 --> 0:04:17.560 frame the discussion with it. 0:04:17.640 --> 0:04:18.200 Believe it or not. 0:04:18.240 --> 0:04:20.760 We're making this up as we go, So I think 0:04:20.800 --> 0:04:23.680 I'll throw it out right now, you know me. 0:04:23.960 --> 0:04:24.600 I mean, I. 0:04:24.600 --> 0:04:28.520 Believe, as I said yesterday, our universities, our colleges and 0:04:28.600 --> 0:04:34.159 universities really education K through PhD level is so horribly 0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:41.880 infected with anti Western civilization, anti American activists. It's the 0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:44.440 only real threat to the health and safety of the 0:04:44.560 --> 0:04:48.960 United States. I think it is a virulent infection coursing 0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:50.600 through our veins that could kill us. 0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:53.560 I honestly think that could be too late. 0:04:54.200 --> 0:04:57.520 If we teach generation after generation to despise the country 0:04:57.560 --> 0:05:00.000 and the principles on which is it's founded, how. 0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:02.200 It's that experiment going to end? You suppose? 0:05:03.320 --> 0:05:06.240 I hope maybe what's good about America will cure the 0:05:06.279 --> 0:05:07.280 disease of what's bad. 0:05:07.360 --> 0:05:09.400 But man, you can't crank. 0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:13.640 Out your young people generation after generation hating ourselves anyway. 0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:15.520 So here's the way I want to frame this. This 0:05:15.600 --> 0:05:19.240 reminds me so much of the great conundrum of democracies. 0:05:19.920 --> 0:05:21.839 And I learned about this first. 0:05:21.680 --> 0:05:25.200 Particularly looking at democracies in the Middle East, trying to 0:05:25.200 --> 0:05:28.040 get democracies up and going in some cases, and that 0:05:28.240 --> 0:05:33.719 is and the United States is a decent enough example too, 0:05:33.760 --> 0:05:35.320 if we can just use our country. 0:05:36.120 --> 0:05:39.719 We have freedom of speech. You can advocate. 0:05:39.120 --> 0:05:43.159 Whatever ideas you want, no matter how repugnant, except for 0:05:44.120 --> 0:05:45.760 the violent overthrow of the government. 0:05:46.600 --> 0:05:47.760 Overturning the constitution. 0:05:48.200 --> 0:05:51.839 You can advocate voting the constitution owut, but can't advocate the. 0:05:51.839 --> 0:05:52.960 Violent overthrow. 0:05:54.960 --> 0:06:00.799 That free speech protect a party, for instance, and read 0:06:01.640 --> 0:06:04.880 Hullaback is that his name? Who wrote submission about Islam 0:06:04.880 --> 0:06:10.560 and France? That freedom speech protects a fundamentalist Muslim party 0:06:11.040 --> 0:06:14.960 who wants to institute Sharia law across America And dontry. 0:06:15.000 --> 0:06:17.279 I'll get back to the college in a minute. 0:06:17.560 --> 0:06:20.680 So you say, well, our principles are you get to 0:06:20.920 --> 0:06:24.440 run your Sharia law party because we there are sacred 0:06:24.480 --> 0:06:26.840 founding principles and we will not violate them. And then 0:06:26.880 --> 0:06:29.599 as soon as those people get elected, they end all 0:06:29.600 --> 0:06:34.120 of the sacred founding principles and decrease Suria law. That 0:06:34.240 --> 0:06:39.520 is the great conundrum of democracies. Do you protect those 0:06:39.560 --> 0:06:43.200 who would end everything you hold deer because you hold 0:06:43.240 --> 0:06:44.200 protecting them deer? 0:06:44.839 --> 0:06:49.920 Right, it's the it's the it's the problem with the 0:06:49.960 --> 0:06:53.400 whole coexist bumper sticker. One of those symbols on there 0:06:53.560 --> 0:06:56.440 doesn't want to coexist with the rest of the symbols. 0:06:56.360 --> 0:06:59.520 Right, and would slit its throat all of their throats, Yeah, 0:06:59.600 --> 0:07:02.560 to get supremacy. So how exactly you're going to co 0:07:02.680 --> 0:07:05.800 exist again anyway. The reason I brought all this up 0:07:06.000 --> 0:07:09.640 is the Wall Street Journal editorial board, which remains, you know, 0:07:09.720 --> 0:07:13.920 pretty staunchly conservative. I don't agree with them all the time, 0:07:14.200 --> 0:07:16.920 but they're big piece today is Donald Trump tries to 0:07:17.000 --> 0:07:19.520 run Harvard. Many of his demands on the school exceed 0:07:19.600 --> 0:07:23.240 his power under the Constitution, and so it's kind of 0:07:23.280 --> 0:07:26.760 the other side of the coin. You have now these 0:07:27.080 --> 0:07:30.600 elite universities. I almost want to vomit when I say that, 0:07:31.160 --> 0:07:37.640 these elite universities who are totally ideologically captured by those 0:07:37.680 --> 0:07:42.400 who would end Western civilization. So when we the saying 0:07:43.040 --> 0:07:47.520 are trying to fix that problem, can we, for instance, 0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:54.080 have what the Trump administration is is decreeing there has 0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:58.120 to be viewpoint diversity, which they don't define. And the 0:07:58.120 --> 0:08:00.440 Wall Street Journal ask, does this mean English to departments 0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:05.240 must hire more Republican faculty or Shakespeare's scholars. If a 0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:08.480 monitor finds insufficient diversity, however you want to define it, 0:08:08.680 --> 0:08:12.240 the university must hire quote a critical massive new faculty 0:08:12.280 --> 0:08:15.360 within the department or the field who will provide that diversity, 0:08:15.720 --> 0:08:18.520 and admit a critical massive students who will provide the same. 0:08:19.200 --> 0:08:23.560 So to Harvard have applicants have to say whether they 0:08:23.560 --> 0:08:29.240 support Trump or not, or impose ideological quotas in hiring 0:08:29.480 --> 0:08:30.280 and admissions. 0:08:30.440 --> 0:08:30.640 Yeah. 0:08:30.920 --> 0:08:32.960 The trouble with this, I think is just you can't. 0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:37.360 I don't think you can write out a recipe for 0:08:37.440 --> 0:08:40.880 a cultural change. I just I don't think it's possible. 0:08:40.800 --> 0:08:44.000 And then enforce it at the end of the government's 0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:46.559 gun or their finance gun. 0:08:46.920 --> 0:08:47.960 And trust me, don't worry. 0:08:47.960 --> 0:08:50.679 I'm not rushing towards some sort of Let the universities 0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:54.079 do whatever they want. Because they are claiming we've got 0:08:54.120 --> 0:08:58.000 to have academic freedom. They're violating our academic freedom. There 0:08:58.040 --> 0:08:59.800 is no effing academic freedom. 0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:03.400 That's what we're mad about, right, exactly. 0:09:03.800 --> 0:09:06.439 The fact that culturally it got to a point where 0:09:06.440 --> 0:09:13.400 these elite universities are all one extreme side of politics 0:09:13.679 --> 0:09:16.520 is so culturally weird and not in step with the 0:09:16.559 --> 0:09:18.719 country and bad for the country. But I don't know, 0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:20.720 I don't know how you write out a list of 0:09:20.840 --> 0:09:22.400 rules to fix it. 0:09:22.960 --> 0:09:25.559 Well, ride and they say the Trump team is shooting 0:09:25.600 --> 0:09:31.120 first and investigating later, imposing these new rules. Uh, here's 0:09:31.160 --> 0:09:37.400 what I would suggest in terms of rules, enforceable. Rules 0:09:37.720 --> 0:09:39.280 don't be a jerk. That'd be my rule. 0:09:39.320 --> 0:09:41.120 Don't be a jerk. Be nice. 0:09:41.800 --> 0:09:47.880 The stuff about anti semitism, enforcing civil rights laws to 0:09:48.040 --> 0:09:50.560 the letter one hundred percent in favor of that. That's 0:09:50.600 --> 0:09:53.440 one of the things Trump administration is insisting in no 0:09:53.920 --> 0:10:01.760 masks on demonstrators, Punish kids who violate the rules. These 0:10:01.800 --> 0:10:05.240 are civil rights rules. You can't say, oh, Johnny, now 0:10:05.400 --> 0:10:09.360 come on, stop punching Jews in the face. No, you 0:10:09.440 --> 0:10:12.400 have to enforce the rules one hundred percent. Legit all 0:10:12.440 --> 0:10:16.959 of that stuff. Get rid of your DEI programs. They're illegal, 0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:20.120 they're a moral they're unconstitutional. I love all of that. 0:10:20.880 --> 0:10:25.480 But the faculty diversity thing, I think has got to 0:10:25.600 --> 0:10:30.199 come through growing awareness and social pressure, which is already building. 0:10:31.040 --> 0:10:31.840 I think, oh. 0:10:31.800 --> 0:10:35.040 Yeah, Like I said yesterday, I think the damage has 0:10:35.080 --> 0:10:39.120 been done. Lots of employers they see Harvard grad on 0:10:39.240 --> 0:10:43.120 that resume, They're not thinking, yes, a Harvard grad applied. 0:10:43.120 --> 0:10:46.439 They're thinking, uh, oh, what kind of nut job might 0:10:46.520 --> 0:10:49.120 I have here? That's gonna make my workplace very difficult? 0:10:49.840 --> 0:10:55.480 Right start mocking Harvard constantly in Colombian pen and Stanford, 0:10:55.520 --> 0:10:58.720 which have lined up to support Harvard, because Harvard, I should. 0:10:58.520 --> 0:10:58.960 Have told you that. 0:10:59.000 --> 0:11:00.840 No, I guess it was in that news said no, 0:11:00.880 --> 0:11:04.120 we're not agreeing to these conditions Trump administration has asked 0:11:04.120 --> 0:11:04.439 of us. 0:11:05.920 --> 0:11:07.320 I use this example a lot. 0:11:07.679 --> 0:11:10.600 Call it Harvard Marx University for the rest of your life. 0:11:10.800 --> 0:11:12.840 I use this example a lot because it bothers me 0:11:12.880 --> 0:11:15.240 a lot. But it's been going on for decades. There are, 0:11:15.679 --> 0:11:19.559 at least according to Bloom who's the Yale University. He's 0:11:19.600 --> 0:11:22.160 dead now, but the expert, the biggest expert in America 0:11:22.200 --> 0:11:24.680 in the history of Shakespeare. He was so upset in 0:11:24.720 --> 0:11:29.040 the nineties that there were no Shakespeare classes being taught 0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:33.199 at elite universities, where the whole point was to say, 0:11:34.880 --> 0:11:36.880 just you know, talk about Shakespeare being great and the 0:11:36.880 --> 0:11:38.360 greatest maybe writer in the. 0:11:38.280 --> 0:11:39.040 History of the world. 0:11:39.200 --> 0:11:45.959 They were all Shakespeare and racism Shakespeare, and misogyny Shakespeare, 0:11:45.960 --> 0:11:48.640 and you know this sort of stuff. Class blah blah blah. 0:11:48.679 --> 0:11:53.840 It was all criticizing Shakespeare for all those things I 0:11:53.920 --> 0:11:56.360 just mentioned, and it bothered him so much. How are 0:11:56.360 --> 0:11:59.240 you going to legislate that out of the colleges? How 0:11:59.280 --> 0:12:00.640 would you prost do that? 0:12:01.280 --> 0:12:01.439 Right? 0:12:02.320 --> 0:12:05.520 It's a ridiculous that that is what they teach about Shakespeare. 0:12:05.600 --> 0:12:08.040 They teach you to think Shakespeare was bad. If they 0:12:08.040 --> 0:12:11.720 teach Shakespeare at all, well, that's Marxism. All Western civilization 0:12:11.800 --> 0:12:15.160 is bad. Capitalism is bad, Representative democracy is bad. They're 0:12:15.200 --> 0:12:17.679 all freaking Marxists who want to tear down the country. 0:12:17.840 --> 0:12:20.840 But how do you fight the most successfully? If you 0:12:21.000 --> 0:12:23.040 have thoughts? Because this is so important? 0:12:23.559 --> 0:12:26.120 Johnyson email, would you have mail bag at Armstrong and 0:12:26.160 --> 0:12:29.600 Getty dot com.

I 0:12:41.559 --> 0:12:43.920 would love to read your thoughts because I'm still working 0:12:43.920 --> 0:12:47.280 on how do we preserve the things we hold dear 0:12:47.720 --> 0:12:52.480 and not empower President AOC to go in and ruin, 0:12:52.679 --> 0:12:55.400 for instance, the University of Austin, which is doing such 0:12:55.520 --> 0:12:58.320 great work in academic freedom right now? How do we 0:12:58.880 --> 0:13:04.160 solve this problem without empowering future progressives to ruin any. 0:13:04.000 --> 0:13:05.960 Progress we've made. That's a good question. 0:13:06.280 --> 0:13:08.480 Mail Bag at Armstrong and Giddy dot com is our 0:13:08.520 --> 0:13:10.880 email address.

The country's in debt. 0:13:53.040 --> 0:13:56.280 You're probably in debt, but most importantly, our three players, Sue, 0:13:56.360 --> 0:13:58.800 Gary and Heather have come to us with their real 0:13:58.920 --> 0:13:59.720 life debt. 0:13:59.800 --> 0:14:01.679 And one of them just might be lucky enough to 0:14:01.760 --> 0:14:03.040 get out of it by the end of the show. 0:14:03.240 --> 0:14:06.120 That's a good one. That's a good premise. Uh wink 0:14:06.240 --> 0:14:10.360 Martindale has died. Whoever? That is a great wink Martindale. 0:14:10.440 --> 0:14:11.160 I watched all. 0:14:11.520 --> 0:14:13.520 I watched a lot of game shows when I was 0:14:13.520 --> 0:14:15.199 a kid because I was sick now and then and 0:14:15.280 --> 0:14:17.839 i'd be Homer in the hospital and I watched all. 0:14:18.360 --> 0:14:21.320 But I can't place Wink Martindale. The name was familiar. 0:14:21.600 --> 0:14:25.000 He was omnipresent. He was, as we just heard, he 0:14:25.080 --> 0:14:28.160 hosted all of them. It was funny when the news 0:14:28.280 --> 0:14:28.880 was brought to us. 0:14:28.960 --> 0:14:30.800 And sorry, we should have told you to sit down 0:14:30.880 --> 0:14:34.760 before I'm plumbing you of the great loss. Executive producer 0:14:34.840 --> 0:14:39.040 Hanson behind the scenes says, yeah, we'll a fortune killed gambit. 0:14:40.280 --> 0:14:41.680 He still but hurt about it. 0:14:44.240 --> 0:14:47.760 Oh boy, Hey, that's the creative destruction of capitalism, Hanson. 0:14:47.840 --> 0:14:49.680 That's the way it goes. They had one of Bold 0:14:49.800 --> 0:14:50.960 not that debt show. 0:14:51.800 --> 0:14:55.480 These three contestants are all miserable because they're so deep 0:14:55.560 --> 0:14:56.120 in debt they. 0:14:56.120 --> 0:14:59.160 Can never dig themselves out of. One of them will 0:14:59.280 --> 0:15:01.280 see that debt better be relieved. 0:15:01.480 --> 0:15:04.400 And the couples that don't win probably a divorce or suicide. 0:15:04.520 --> 0:15:08.840 Let's see who wins. Let's play the game. Oh my god, 0:15:09.600 --> 0:15:10.680 that's funny. Wow. 0:15:11.240 --> 0:15:13.160 So just a quick follow up to the previous segment. 0:15:13.240 --> 0:15:15.240 I was thinking about it during the commercial break. And 0:15:17.320 --> 0:15:21.760 one thing the Trump administration does that I don't love 0:15:21.920 --> 0:15:24.560 sometimes because I think sometimes it's counterproductive. 0:15:25.080 --> 0:15:28.480 But they do a very elon musky thing. 0:15:29.560 --> 0:15:37.080 They fail fast and learn faster, or in terms of 0:15:37.200 --> 0:15:40.800 like the college policy thing, I can picture Trump saying 0:15:41.040 --> 0:15:44.160 look set out a bunch of policies that make them 0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:47.120 come to heal. I know they'll reject them. I know 0:15:47.240 --> 0:15:50.480 they'll be complained about. Let's stir up some dust. Let's 0:15:50.520 --> 0:15:54.960 start the discussion. Let's do something other than holding hearings 0:15:55.040 --> 0:15:58.560 for six months. Then some Republican politician makes a grim 0:15:58.680 --> 0:16:01.520 faced speech and no, but he ever thinks about it again. 0:16:01.960 --> 0:16:06.440 Let's stirs up you know that, Get that that doesn't 0:16:06.480 --> 0:16:07.080 always work. 0:16:07.280 --> 0:16:12.480 You saying that while in the midst of putin tariffs. 0:16:12.800 --> 0:16:16.040 I mean, you name so many different things. Mark Alprin 0:16:16.080 --> 0:16:19.600 writing in his newsletter today, one of the most important 0:16:19.640 --> 0:16:23.320 ways in which Trump defies convention as that he thrives 0:16:23.440 --> 0:16:27.960 by picking the maximum number of fights possible. Most White 0:16:27.960 --> 0:16:30.960 houses would be an overload if they had one tenth 0:16:31.160 --> 0:16:34.240 of the number of simultaneous conflicts that Trump has initiated. 0:16:34.560 --> 0:16:37.520 But Trump personally and the ready for war infrastructure he's 0:16:37.560 --> 0:16:40.280 a arrayed both inside government and outside, are in fact 0:16:40.400 --> 0:16:43.640 built for taking on many, many brawls at the same time. 0:16:45.600 --> 0:16:47.600 And we won't know until we're looking through the rear 0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:49.000 view mirror how it all works out. 0:16:49.760 --> 0:16:52.720 God, the way his personality and brain works that he 0:16:52.760 --> 0:16:55.600 can be involved in this many skirmishes at one time 0:16:55.680 --> 0:16:59.840 would make most people crazy, and especially at his age. Right, 0:17:02.360 --> 0:17:05.280 old fat guy who eats fast food. Bring it on, 0:17:05.560 --> 0:17:05.960 he says. 0:17:06.480 --> 0:17:09.720 Eh, they need to study him when he passes, figure 0:17:09.760 --> 0:17:14.679 out his genome or something. No kidding, Armstrong and Getty. 0:17:16.000 --> 0:17:18.760 The authorities are investigating a jewelry store heist in Los Angeles. 0:17:18.800 --> 0:17:21.200 At least five million dollars in jewelry stole, and police 0:17:21.240 --> 0:17:23.720 say the family owned store was ransacked. Owners say the 0:17:23.800 --> 0:17:26.879 thieves stole jewelry and gold bars knocked out for surveillance cameras. 0:17:27.119 --> 0:17:29.320 Authorities believe thieves broke in right through a wall. The 0:17:29.359 --> 0:17:31.760 owners are offering one hundred thousand dollars in cash reward 0:17:32.000 --> 0:17:32.800 for any information. 0:17:34.000 --> 0:17:36.280 And they stole how many millions of dollars with the stuff, 0:17:36.320 --> 0:17:38.159 and they're still on the loose. I mean it's a 0:17:38.240 --> 0:17:42.119 successful heist so far anyway, going right through the wall. 0:17:42.440 --> 0:17:44.000 That's thinking outside the box, isn't it. 0:17:44.160 --> 0:17:46.680 Oh that reminds me I tweeted out a new video 0:17:46.720 --> 0:17:49.040 of people cleaning out the shelves of a Walgreens in 0:17:49.119 --> 0:17:52.680 San Francisco. Just unbelievable. You two can have this in 0:17:52.800 --> 0:17:57.560 your town. Vote Gavin Newsom. In twenty twenty eight disgusting. 0:17:57.400 --> 0:18:00.359 Major ruling in Great Britain. 0:18:00.440 --> 0:18:04.880 They're Supreme Court ruled that trans women do not fall 0:18:05.000 --> 0:18:08.480 within the legal definition of women under the country's equality legislation. 0:18:08.840 --> 0:18:14.480 It was a unanimous decision. The Deputy President of the Court, 0:18:14.680 --> 0:18:19.159 Lord Hodge. I can't believe they use the terms lord 0:18:19.600 --> 0:18:23.560 in a democracy, seems how I love it anyway, he said, 0:18:23.880 --> 0:18:24.560 the unanarchy. 0:18:24.640 --> 0:18:25.480 Actually, the. 0:18:27.080 --> 0:18:30.080 The unanimous decision of this court is that the terms 0:18:30.240 --> 0:18:33.880 woman and sex in the Equality Act of twenty ten 0:18:34.000 --> 0:18:38.679 refer to biological women in biological sex only because. 0:18:38.440 --> 0:18:39.080 Of course they do. 0:18:39.800 --> 0:18:42.040 Because of course they do. I can't believe we had 0:18:42.080 --> 0:18:44.600 to discuss this. He didn't say a king. He meant, 0:18:45.760 --> 0:18:48.240 you know me, I object to the term biological women. 0:18:48.320 --> 0:18:51.440 It's like saying a biological lion. I mean, that's the 0:18:51.480 --> 0:18:54.800 only kind of lion there is. That's It's entirely a 0:18:54.840 --> 0:18:55.879 biological question. 0:18:56.000 --> 0:18:57.879 What is a woman? What is a man? Yes, we 0:18:58.040 --> 0:19:02.000 know it's a biological woman anyway. 0:19:02.960 --> 0:19:07.560 Yeah, so the Scottish Parliament, Scots have lost their minds. 0:19:07.760 --> 0:19:11.200 You're supposed to be tough and to your climate sucks 0:19:11.240 --> 0:19:14.119 and the food's terrible. You're supposed to be realistic people. 0:19:14.600 --> 0:19:19.399 You invented golf. Anyway, you invented golf. I don't know 0:19:19.480 --> 0:19:21.480 exactly how that fits into my argument, but it popped 0:19:21.480 --> 0:19:25.720 into my end. But anyway, so a Scotland has gone nuts. 0:19:25.760 --> 0:19:30.639 They're so progressive, but they passed this idiotic law that 0:19:30.720 --> 0:19:33.960 there has to be gender balance on public sector boards. 0:19:35.160 --> 0:19:36.720 Excuse me, and some of the. 0:19:36.760 --> 0:19:39.159 Women who said yes, there ought to be balanced, no 0:19:39.240 --> 0:19:41.560 matter who's qualified not or who gets liketed or whatever, 0:19:41.560 --> 0:19:45.280 you've got to have a balance noticed Hey, wait a minute, 0:19:45.320 --> 0:19:47.480 there's a bunch of dudes claiming to be women taking 0:19:47.560 --> 0:19:51.040 up the women's slots on these boards. And so the 0:19:51.119 --> 0:19:53.680 worm turned and they said, no, no, no, by women. 0:19:53.800 --> 0:19:54.760 We met women. 0:19:55.359 --> 0:20:01.600 Excellent Shakespeare, drop on a British story, three searchers. 0:20:01.320 --> 0:20:04.359 Thank you, mister president. So who is this? 0:20:04.600 --> 0:20:07.639 The Women Scotland co founder Susan Smith welcome the court's decision, 0:20:07.680 --> 0:20:10.200 but said the fight was likely to continue. Quote today 0:20:10.240 --> 0:20:12.000 the judges have said what we always believe to be 0:20:12.040 --> 0:20:14.440 the case, that women are protected by their biological sex, 0:20:14.640 --> 0:20:16.760 that sex is real, that women, Oh my god, we 0:20:16.880 --> 0:20:19.040 have to actually say that out loud, these are odd times, 0:20:19.680 --> 0:20:23.080 and that if you don't know that men and women 0:20:23.200 --> 0:20:26.159 are different and it's real, you got something wrong with 0:20:26.240 --> 0:20:29.120 you anyway, And that women can now feel that services 0:20:29.200 --> 0:20:32.800 and spaces designated for women are for women. What our 0:20:32.920 --> 0:20:35.879 politicians need to get their heads around this law. They 0:20:35.920 --> 0:20:38.800 need to stop putting faulty guidance into schools and hospitals. 0:20:39.080 --> 0:20:40.040 Amen to that. 0:20:40.720 --> 0:20:43.200 Yeah, it's interesting that they did that. I don't feel 0:20:43.280 --> 0:20:47.160 like we're ever gonna do a way with all gender 0:20:47.240 --> 0:20:49.080 bathrooms in the United States. I feel like it's here 0:20:49.119 --> 0:20:49.480 to stay. 0:20:50.000 --> 0:20:50.520 Am I wrong? 0:20:51.960 --> 0:20:52.120 Uh? 0:20:52.480 --> 0:20:53.760 No, I don't think you are wrong. 0:20:54.240 --> 0:21:02.080 It's if that prevents lunatic state and lunatic cities from 0:21:02.200 --> 0:21:06.320 letting men into women's private spaces. If that's what it takes. 0:21:07.840 --> 0:21:10.280 You want to present as a woman, here's a bathroom 0:21:10.359 --> 0:21:12.640 for you. You're not going in the women's locker room. 0:21:13.040 --> 0:21:17.960 If that's the solution. Okay, until this madness washes over anyway, Katie, 0:21:18.240 --> 0:21:20.000 Yes a tease. 0:21:20.760 --> 0:21:25.720 I have forty year old breaking celebrity marriage news.
