1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:06,120
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

2
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:10,719
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Ketty arm Strong

3
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:17,200
Speaker 1: and Jetty and he Armstrong and Yetty.

4
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:29,639
Speaker 2: So the jury selection begins today in the trial of

5
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 2: that nutjob who was gonna kill Trump at the golf

6
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 2: course and got way too close to being able to

7
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 2: pull it off. And he was in the bushes with

8
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 2: a rifle, just needed to wait a little longer before

9
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 2: they came down walking down the fairway.

10
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:46,559
Speaker 1: Holy crap.

11
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 2: But anyway, I called him a nutjob because he's actually crazy.

12
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 2: He is representing himself and the three things he asked

13
00:00:55,440 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 2: the judge for were strippers, a putting green, and he

14
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 2: wanted to challenge Donald Trump to eighteen whole round of

15
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 2: golf where if he lost, Trump gets to execute him,

16
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 2: but if he wins, he gets Trump's job, which would

17
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:17,759
Speaker 2: be an odd arrangement.

18
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 1: It's a stretch constitutionally speaking, but I could see it happening.

19
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,480
Speaker 1: Did he mention whether it would be match player stroke play?

20
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 1: Probably not significant back to you.

21
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 2: I think Trump should take him up on it, because

22
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 2: I bet Trump could beat him.

23
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 1: That's the guy spends a little time with that Putting

24
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 1: Green gets his stroke all locked in. Who knows the

25
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: strippers are difficult? I mean it's you know, maybe he

26
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 1: just likes naked women, but seems like an odd request.

27
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 1: Has the judge ruled on his requests? Anyway, they're selecting

28
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,559
Speaker 1: the jury today. I wouldn't mind being on that jury.

29
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 1: I'd be a pretty interesting trial looking at him, that

30
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: guy's crazy background, and then also probably getting quite a

31
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: bit of information on things the secrets Servis did well and

32
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 1: maybe not well in that situation. I don't know. The

33
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 1: defense countered with a Putting Green, a Llama, and a

34
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:12,360
Speaker 1: foot race against jad events the judges expected to rule

35
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 1: different topic.

36
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 2: So remember the jobs numbers came out on Friday and

37
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 2: they were quite low and below expectations, and a lot

38
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 2: of the mainstream media beaten up Trump over his tariff

39
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 2: policies destroying America and blah blah blah, And I don't

40
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 2: know anything about that other than this. Kevin Hassett, one

41
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 2: of Trump's economic advisors, was on Face the Nation yesterday.

42
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 2: He is one of Trump's best spokespeople in this Kevin

43
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 2: Hassett should get on more shows because he's really good

44
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 2: at it, explaining once again as they had explained a

45
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 2: month prior about how there's just the methodology for the

46
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 2: jobs numbers thing is just all over the place.

47
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 1: And this was himle and face, the nation has.

48
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 3: Job creation installed and should the Federal Reserve be concerned

49
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 3: about the jobs picture?

50
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 1: Right?

51
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 3: Well, first of all, the interesting thing about the jobs numbers,

52
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 3: right is that they had the biggest revisions in fifty

53
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 3: years over the summer, and we came in with twenty

54
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,240
Speaker 3: two thousand in August. But if you look at what

55
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 3: they said in twenty three and twenty four, they have

56
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 3: two ways of estimating the jobs. There's something called the

57
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 3: payroll survey where they asked the employers how many people

58
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 3: did you hire? That they have something called the household

59
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 3: survey where they call up people they say do you

60
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 3: have a job. And over those two years, the payroll

61
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 3: numbers said that we created four and a half million jobs,

62
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 3: and the household survey said about two million. Fewer about

63
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 3: two and a half million jobs. And they should have

64
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 3: the same answer.

65
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 2: So one is like double the other number. And as

66
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 2: he's pointing out, when you've got that level of which

67
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 2: one is, right, Someng's got to get fixed.

68
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,119
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, you got to look at that and say, hey,

69
00:03:56,120 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: one of these is wildly wrong, right or of fun?

70
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I just wanted to get that on because

71
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,559
Speaker 2: you don't you haven't heard that from anybody.

72
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's cuckoonuts. You're not Why are you collecting

73
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 1: that data? It's just just make up a number. It

74
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: saves time. Well that was his point a month ago. Yeah.

75
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, And Brennan's attempted pushback was because he started trouting

76
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,839
Speaker 2: out some numbers and her pushback was, oh, you believe

77
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 2: those numbers but not these, And he said, well, there

78
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,279
Speaker 2: aren't altered numbers for the ones I just mentioned that

79
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,479
Speaker 2: are like wildly different the number that you're talking about.

80
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 2: There are two ways to measure it, and they're completely

81
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 2: all over the place.

82
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: Yeah. I wouldn't argue therefore the job market's great, because

83
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 1: there's every sign in the world that it's not. But

84
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: that is interesting because so much hay is made of

85
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 1: those numbers every time they come out. Yeah, so that's that.

86
00:04:52,560 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 1: Just thought that was interesting. That is that I thought

87
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 1: I thought you said you had something else. No, I

88
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: did not to go with I said that I misspoke. Well,

89
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,839
Speaker 1: you misled us. Then my other thing to.

90
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 2: Go with it was talking about the trial, which I

91
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 2: laid out the oh right right, the demands the Kukula

92
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 2: guy wanted the strippers the putting green.

93
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 1: In the golf match with the president, did he say,

94
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:26,599
Speaker 1: like how many strippers or in what like setting? Just plurals?

95
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 2: So I guess somewhere between two and a thousand, But

96
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 2: performing in his cell, would he be transported to the strip?

97
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 1: I'd like to know as more about his his specific

98
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 1: as bailiffs. Now that is sexy, you've been naughty, et cetera.

99
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: Uh so, uh Jack, Earlier we were talking about the

100
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 1: trump renaming of the Department of Defense the war, and

101
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 1: you were going to explain to us the origin actually

102
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,719
Speaker 1: of the original change, which was in I think nineteen

103
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,280
Speaker 1: forty seven or something like that, shortly after World War Two.

104
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought it was kind of interesting. I had

105
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 2: always thought it was just a a name change, and

106
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 2: it just seemed like a better idea to we'll defend

107
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 2: ourselves if we're attacked, but we're not going out trying

108
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 2: to attack people.

109
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 1: Well, mean, the war was so horrible in so many ways,

110
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 1: I thought maybe people just let's not go around talking

111
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 1: about war casually. This is what I've always assumed.

112
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 2: If you're a history fan, you know that back in

113
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 2: the day, pre Department of Defense, there was things called

114
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 2: the Secretary of the Navy.

115
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 1: You had your own secretary with the Navy and the army.

116
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 2: What happened after World War Two is they decided there's

117
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 2: a whole bunch of different stuff we need to bring

118
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 2: together in one department and have one person in charge

119
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 2: over that. And so it wasn't just a renaming the

120
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 2: Department of War to the Department of Defense. They created

121
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 2: a different department that included the Department of War, and

122
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,280
Speaker 2: then all these other different things things intelligence and all

123
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 2: different stuff into defense and uh and and so it's

124
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 2: kind of like they brought various things together after nine

125
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 2: to eleven and then had a D and I so

126
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 2: that that makes sense to me.

127
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 1: It was a different thing at that point.

128
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 2: I don't think it's It doesn't bother me at all

129
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 2: that they change it back to the Department of War.

130
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: I don't.

131
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 2: I don't think it's a major deal. And I actually

132
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 2: kind of like the putting up with your s attitude

133
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 2: of the name of it. But it wasn't just a

134
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 2: name change back in the day. Also during the court

135
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 2: when we realized it was a cold war was what

136
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 2: we were headed into. It really was going to be

137
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 2: more about defending ourselves than prosecuting a war. But again,

138
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 2: I think it's a minor deal. Yeah, I would agree

139
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 2: interesting points to one at all. But they can call

140
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 2: it whatever they want, Jimmy the Department for all I

141
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 2: care as long as they, you know, keep us prepared. So,

142
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 2: speaking of that change in name, though, the folks at

143
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 2: the Babylon b took a shot at renaming various departments.

144
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 1: I don't want to get the punchline wrong. I love

145
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 1: the one about the Social Security Administration. Just Sti'll have

146
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 1: that handy.

147
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 2: I do renaming the Department of Social Security to the

148
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 2: Charles Ponzi Memorial Retirement Plan, which is pretty funny as

149
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 2: it is a Ponzi scheme. Anybody who screams it isn't

150
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 2: is just lying to you. The Department of Justice will

151
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 2: be remain renamed to the Department of Revenge on All

152
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 2: Losers and haters.

153
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 1: That's nice, now, Am I gonna like this one? No?

154
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 2: No, Bureau of Indian Affairs, the Department of Redskins not funny,

155
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:39,079
Speaker 2: Babylon Bee.

156
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 1: No, don't appreciate that at all. Yeah, many people hurt.

157
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 2: Housing and Urban Development will be retitled as the Department

158
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:46,680
Speaker 2: of the poores.

159
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,079
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's a good. That's not unhelpfully. Either,

160
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,719
Speaker 1: Food and Drug Administration will just be called McDonald's from

161
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 1: now on. I don't know if that's helpful either Andy

162
00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 1: Kessler or the Wall Street Journal. Taking a slightly more serious,

163
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 1: although equally cynical approach to it, he wants to start

164
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 1: with the Commerce Department better labeled as the Department of

165
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 1: Corporate Extortion. And this is one thing Trump's been doing

166
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 1: that I am very uncomfortable with. But Intel is giving

167
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 1: up nearly ten percent of its equity to Uncle Sam Rare,

168
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 1: it's extractor. MP Materials sold the Pentagon of fifteen percent

169
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 1: state stake. Nvidia and AMD must now pay fifteen percent

170
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 1: export tax to sell advanced chips in China. Apple announced

171
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 1: giant investments than in April, miraculously escape reciprocal triffs on iPhones. Yeah,

172
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 1: I don't love all that stuff.

173
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 2: Well, how could you not be against that? And it's

174
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 2: the same story we've had for quite a while now.

175
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 2: Try to imagine what it's going to be like when

176
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 2: you lose an election because you're not gonna win every

177
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 2: election going forward. Right, you like the things your party's doing, well,

178
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 2: the other party is going to get to do the

179
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:55,080
Speaker 2: same stuff.

180
00:09:55,400 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 1: So that's why do you make an exciting new powers?

181
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 2: Oh doesn't end when the other team wins? And do

182
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 2: you want President Gavin Newsome with a ten stake in

183
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 2: Intel getting to dictate all kinds of DEI staff or

184
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:13,679
Speaker 2: who knows.

185
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 1: What the hell right? Right? Moving along though, I like

186
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 1: this even more, Andy Kessler Treasure, he should become the

187
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:22,840
Speaker 1: dollar printing like confetti department.

188
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, this one from the Babylon b was the Department

189
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 2: of the Treasury will now be called the Chinese Loan Office.

190
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 1: H a little too close to all. No one really

191
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 1: knows what the Agricultural Department does. I suggest a new name,

192
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 1: the High Fructose Corn Syrup Subsidizer tey. That's what they

193
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 1: essentially do, Agriculture Department does.

194
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:46,319
Speaker 2: They push socialism all across the They're the most socialist

195
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 2: chunk of the government by.

196
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 1: Far, clearly. Yeah, some of you all hate this. Health

197
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 1: and Human Services might become the class action set up faction.

198
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: Former personal injury practitioner Robert F. Kennedy Junior is the

199
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 1: head of HHS, and he seems to be position all

200
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,839
Speaker 1: the policies for class action lawyers. Maybe you believe that,

201
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 1: Maybe you don't. The Education Department, which apparently is still around,

202
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 1: would be better as the remedial instructor full employment group.

203
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 1: Since more than half of Americans have literacy below a

204
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 1: sixth grade level and our schools aren't teaching people to read,

205
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:22,839
Speaker 1: it will indeed keep remedial instructors employed full time?

206
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 2: Say that first part is that true? Do more than

207
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 2: half of Americans read at a sixth grade or less level?

208
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,080
Speaker 1: Have literacy below a sixth grade level? Yeah? More than half?

209
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 1: That's correct. Wow, there are thirty schools in Illinois with

210
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:40,079
Speaker 1: zero students reading at grade level. Alternately, we could call

211
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,960
Speaker 1: it the Ray's College Tuition annually Department, because that's what

212
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,080
Speaker 1: it's done with the student loans, all right. The labor departments,

213
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 1: the Union Perpetuation Society, Buro of alcatol, alcohol, tobacco on firearms,

214
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 1: just the vice squad Energy Department is the green boondoggles

215
00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 1: are us? Let's see in the EPA is the Progress

216
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:06,960
Speaker 1: Inhibiting Agency. Oh, this is a good one. Trump fans

217
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 1: the Federal Bureau of Investigation could be known as the

218
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:15,440
Speaker 1: Presidential Election Manipulation Organization. Ooof yeah, A.

219
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 2: How do you have thirty schools in Illinois where no

220
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 2: one is reading at proficiency level? And I'm assuming that,

221
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 2: like California, their proficiency levels are embarrassingly low. Yes, so

222
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 2: the standard's pretty low.

223
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:36,840
Speaker 1: Anyway, right, Yeah, it's a horrific failure. Yeah, you know,

224
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 1: I put two a handful of fellas over the weekend.

225
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,199
Speaker 1: I don't think there's any saving government schools. I think

226
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 1: the entire system needs to be torn down and rebuilt,

227
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: or or just done away with. Nobody disagreed, no, just

228
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 1: do away with it. Maybe because they think I'm a

229
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 1: maniac and they don't want to get into it with me,

230
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 1: but they seem to be sincere. You look like somebody

231
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,320
Speaker 1: would attack them with a golf club if they just agreed.

232
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 1: Absolutely not. No, maybe the handleland, the rubberised handleland. I

233
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 1: have them with it, but that's you know, that's not

234
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 1: quote unquote attacking them with a golf club.

235
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 2: Right, Okay, we got more on the way. What do

236
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,199
Speaker 2: you think of that text? Line four one KFTC.

237
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,960
Speaker 1: We have reason to believe that he's a maniac.

238
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 2: It's so I've vowed to stop paying attention to the

239
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,200
Speaker 2: back and forths of lower courts until the Supreme Court

240
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 2: decides on things, because what's the point. The Supreme Court

241
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:41,079
Speaker 2: has decided that this. They have lifted restrictions on ice

242
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 2: agents in LA, allowing them to make indiscriminate stops based

243
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 2: on factors like ethnicity. The Supreme Court weighed in on that,

244
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:54,319
Speaker 2: So seeing somebody who's brown is not automatically out of

245
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 2: bounds for a reason to Hey, you got any paperwork

246
00:13:58,040 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 2: and maybe you agree with that, maybe you don't.

247
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,320
Speaker 1: That has been made. Yeah, I'd like to read the decision.

248
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 1: I'm a little surprised by that, but there's probably subtlety

249
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 1: there that's worth discussing.

250
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 2: So our population is aging in the United States, actually

251
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 2: all of Western SIEV is aging quite a bit right now.

252
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 2: One in six people are sixty five or older, and

253
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 2: that's going to grow in future years by a lot.

254
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,160
Speaker 2: So there's a lot of money to be made if

255
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 2: you are a company that sells stuff and making sure

256
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 2: you know you're catering to older people. Not only are

257
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 2: there going to be a lot of them, they tend

258
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 2: to be the ones that have money to spend on

259
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 2: things like one German luxury automaker, I'm assuming it's Mercedes,

260
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 2: spend a lot of money on coming up with an

261
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 2: old suit that people could wear to kind of simulate

262
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 2: being old, and then try to craft their cars for

263
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 2: older people. And this been has caught on and become

264
00:14:56,520 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 2: a thing. The original version of the MIT It built

265
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 2: this age suit was for Mercedes, but now they're using

266
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 2: for a whole bunch of different stuff. And the New

267
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 2: York Times had an article over the weekend, My day

268
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 2: is an eighty year old? What an age simulation suit

269
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 2: taught me? This reporter woman wore the MIT design suit

270
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:22,480
Speaker 2: and it's about what you'd probably guess. Fifteen pound weighted vest.

271
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 2: They add weights around your ankles and wrists to replicate

272
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 2: the sensation of a loss of muscle mass that a

273
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 2: company's aging. They pulled a blue jumpsuit over the weights,

274
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 2: helping me making it a little more difficult to lift

275
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 2: your legs. A bungee cord system attached to different parts

276
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 2: of your body, just to making a little more stiff,

277
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 2: a little harder to bend over, all kinds of different things.

278
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 2: Wow goggles to distort your vision a little bit something

279
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 2: for your hearing, to make it a little harder to hear.

280
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 2: It's called AGNES, the age gain Now empathy system, Agnes,

281
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 2: the Agnes suit, And like she wored around the grocery

282
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 2: store and realized she couldn't reach stuff on the higher

283
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 2: shelf because she just didn't have the flexibility and muscle

284
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 2: mass anymore to get up on her tiptoes and reach

285
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 2: way up eigh stuff like that.

286
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 1: Right, the suit sounds half comedic honestly, but U the

287
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:22,760
Speaker 1: intent there. Uh yeah, in a world of aging people, Yeah,

288
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 1: that's that's that's good. It's nice. I remember there's a

289
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 1: conceit among the young or like you never think about it,

290
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 1: but kind of in the back of your mind you think,

291
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 1: look that old guy kind of walking bent over and slow.

292
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be like that. I'm youthful forever. He's

293
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 1: a weak character. It did get to in the article,

294
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 1: which I thought was pretty good.

295
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 2: You can put off that by quite a bit by

296
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 2: staying active.

297
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 1: Oh. I for instance, some strong like bullhos oh that

298
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 1: frequently announce All that stuff goes away if you don't

299
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 1: use it.

300
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 2: But if you stay active, exercise and lift and weights,

301
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 2: all that sort of stuff and then whatever for your brain.

302
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 2: You can put it off a long time. But as

303
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,320
Speaker 2: it points out in the New York Times, the majority

304
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,920
Speaker 2: of reason that we end up that way or for

305
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 2: a lot of people, is not your fault, just random

306
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:14,080
Speaker 2: bad luck. You get even the best prepared person in

307
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 2: that old person lifestyle.

308
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:19,959
Speaker 1: Are strong and getty.

309
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,880
Speaker 2: Thank you so much MTV for giving me the.

310
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:24,880
Speaker 1: Van Dot Award.

311
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:31,439
Speaker 3: I can't believe I'm getting my first VMA tonight.

312
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:36,120
Speaker 1: I just have one question, what in the same hell

313
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:42,919
Speaker 1: were you waiting for? I love you, I love you,

314
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:44,440
Speaker 1: love you so much? This is amazing.

315
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 2: I'm perplexed. I'm not trying to diss on people's music

316
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 2: tastes or anything like that. Different people like different music whatever,

317
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:55,360
Speaker 2: I don't care.

318
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,879
Speaker 1: But is there a crowd for videos at this point?

319
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 1: Am I just missing it?

320
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:04,640
Speaker 2: My kids don't watch videos, and they're really really into music.

321
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 2: They both listen to music constantly, but they don't aren't

322
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:08,840
Speaker 2: aware of any videos.

323
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:13,440
Speaker 1: So what are the MTV Video Awards Video music awards? Well?

324
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 1: It reminds me of our discussion of like your green

325
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:20,200
Speaker 1: energy boondoggles, where billions of dollars are being spread around

326
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 1: the dollars are the point, not the excuse for spending

327
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 1: the dollars. Spending the dollars is the point. In the

328
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 1: same way the VMA, for instance, the existence of the

329
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:33,359
Speaker 1: show is so they have a show. It's not to

330
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 1: give out video music awards, and it's an excuse to

331
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:41,679
Speaker 1: assemble the pop stars of the day and sell commercials. Okay,

332
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:43,080
Speaker 1: that's it.

333
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:47,879
Speaker 2: And Sabrina Carpenter, who is the she was on Saturday

334
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:49,719
Speaker 2: Night Live is the only reason I know who she was.

335
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 1: But so she's like.

336
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:56,360
Speaker 2: The current hottie who pushes the limits of being too

337
00:18:56,400 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 2: sexy and in theory controversial, and yeah, once you're older

338
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:07,240
Speaker 2: and you've been through this cycle fifteen times with Brittany

339
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,960
Speaker 2: and Madonna and whoever else, it's just it's so, I

340
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 2: don't know, uninteresting.

341
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's like some good laundry deterreent promising you

342
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 1: brighter brights and whiter whites or whatever I mean. Okay,

343
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 1: I don't either it is or it isn't. Now, So

344
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:26,160
Speaker 1: she's some sexy song strystle show us a large portion

345
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 1: of her boobies.

346
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 2: Well her album cover. Her album cover was too sexy

347
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 2: and had to be recalled and they put out a

348
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 2: different when that was tame down.

349
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,879
Speaker 1: And covered with brown paper, right for shocking the eyes

350
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,479
Speaker 1: of Americans. Yeah, I know, it's just it's so silly.

351
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:49,639
Speaker 1: But congratulations, Mariah, carry on your Vanguard award. Yes, so

352
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:55,439
Speaker 1: breaking news. Jack completely misreported it, Okay, misled you. The

353
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 1: Supreme Court aught a rule on you. No, it was right.

354
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:00,800
Speaker 2: It was right as far as when I think I

355
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 2: just read the sentence it was out for ABC News.

356
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:05,359
Speaker 2: Maybe they got it wrong.

357
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:09,359
Speaker 1: Yeah. Oh, if it's ABC News, the chances are nine

358
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 1: out of ten they got it wrong. Yeah. The Supreme

359
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 1: Court lifted a federal judge's order prohibiting government agents from

360
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:19,119
Speaker 1: making indiscriminate immigration related stops in the LA area. Challengers

361
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 1: called it blatant racial profiling. The court's brief order was unsigned,

362
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 1: gave no reasons. It is not the last word in

363
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,400
Speaker 1: the case. It's pending before a federal appeals court and

364
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:33,640
Speaker 1: may again reach the justices. All they said was, no,

365
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 1: we're not going to stop the federal government for doing

366
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 1: from doing this until it works this way through the courts.

367
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 1: We're not granting you a temporary restraining order. They can

368
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:47,679
Speaker 1: keep doing what they're doing. Okay, well, your term. It

369
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 1: allows what critics say are roving patrols of massed agents

370
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 1: routinely violating the Fourth Amendment, and what supporters say is

371
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,879
Speaker 1: a vigorous but lawful effort to enforce the nation's immigration laws.

372
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,359
Speaker 2: I'd be smirched ABC, and I shouldn't. I should be

373
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 2: besmirching The New York Times. So The New York Times

374
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 2: wrote this this way on purpose, then, because I just

375
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 2: read it from their headline, breaking news.

376
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 1: The Supreme Court lifted restrictions on.

377
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:11,640
Speaker 2: Ice agents in Los Angeles, allowing them to make indiscriminate

378
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 2: stops based on factors like ethnicity. That is accurate but misleading,

379
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,679
Speaker 2: and they what they the result they want is for

380
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:25,120
Speaker 2: you to say, oh, no, Trump's out of control. Magat

381
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 2: Court has done it again. Right, That's what the point

382
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 2: was of writing it that way for the New York Times.

383
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,640
Speaker 2: Nice job, New York Times. Oh yeah, yeah, I would agree. God,

384
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 2: you have to look into if you see a headline

385
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,159
Speaker 2: about a Supreme Court ruling, you have to look deeper

386
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,200
Speaker 2: than that, And even then you might have to look

387
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 2: a lot deeper to figure out what actually happened.

388
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:46,879
Speaker 1: You know what. The most amusing part of that story is.

389
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:48,920
Speaker 1: And this is the sort of thing I chuckle about,

390
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,399
Speaker 1: which is why I have no friends. The fact that

391
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:57,440
Speaker 1: they called the stops the searches indiscriminate when they are

392
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 1: literally arguing in court that they're discriminate. Which one are they?

393
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:10,080
Speaker 1: These indiscriminate discriminatory searches must end You can't be both themasses.

394
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,479
Speaker 1: But a lot of times you'll hear a gun ruling

395
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 1: and it wasn't a gun ruling at all. It was

396
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:18,719
Speaker 1: a standing ruling, or it was something completely different than

397
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:22,240
Speaker 1: what the headline is right right, Or it was a no,

398
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 1: we're not changing this, we're keeping it the same until

399
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,639
Speaker 1: this works through, blah blah blah. It wasn't a ruling

400
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,200
Speaker 1: in favor of whatnot right, Okay?

401
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 2: Uh?

402
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 1: Speaking of guns and hispanics and roundups and that sort

403
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 1: of thing. So maybe you've heard Trump talked about sending

404
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,240
Speaker 1: the federal troops to Chicago. He's not really serious about that,

405
00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:42,919
Speaker 1: although they are round up.

406
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 2: Is about to find out why it's called the Department

407
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:48,120
Speaker 2: of War, he tweeted out over the weekend, which is.

408
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 1: Pretty provocative from the president. You can forgive people for thinking, yeah, yeah,

409
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 1: it's right. That was a crazy ass thing to say. Anyway,

410
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 1: I thought this so interesting. And this is the Wall

411
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 1: Street Journal, that's but they've lost control of their lefty

412
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 1: young reporters obviously, but this is an article about that topic,

413
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 1: and I thought this was so interesting. The latest move

414
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 1: alarmed immigrants in Chicago, keeping them home during a month

415
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 1: when celebrations for Mexico's independence usually fill the streets in

416
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 1: the Pilsen neighborhood, which is largely Hispanic. Please close off

417
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 1: streets for the annual Mexican Independence Day parade on Saturday.

418
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,840
Speaker 1: Normally the event is a joyful one, with residents packing

419
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 1: the sidewalks. This time a few people turned out. Is

420
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:36,440
Speaker 1: there any other country on Earth where you would leave

421
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 1: your god forsake and country to come to the one

422
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:44,639
Speaker 1: that's way better, run way safer, you have much better

423
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 1: prospects for yourself and your children, and then you wave

424
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:53,359
Speaker 1: the flag the crappy place you left and celebrate the

425
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:58,200
Speaker 1: Independence day in the new country. That's a good point. Now,

426
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,400
Speaker 1: I could see American ex pats have in a little

427
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:04,879
Speaker 1: Fourth of July celebration or something. I don't think I

428
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:10,640
Speaker 1: would petition the government of Austria, for instance, to shut

429
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:14,159
Speaker 1: down streets. Yeah, we got to have a Fourth of

430
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:21,879
Speaker 1: July celebration. No you don't. You're in Austria, America. Love

431
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 1: it or leave it, amigos. That's what I'm saying. Oh

432
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 1: my god. Oh And one more immigration story because I

433
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:34,360
Speaker 1: find it so interesting. And you called this the giant

434
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:39,119
Speaker 1: immigration rate at the Hyundai plant in Georgia where hundreds

435
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 1: of South Korean workers were lined up and shipped out,

436
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 1: and the US State Department in the South Koreans, we've

437
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 1: come to an agreement because we're buddies, we're friends and allies,

438
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 1: and you don't want things to turn ugly. But you

439
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,480
Speaker 1: said immediately when you heard about this story, something's going

440
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,920
Speaker 1: on here. How do you have hundreds and hundreds of

441
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 1: South Koreans working illegally at this giant plant that was

442
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:09,320
Speaker 1: a giant investment in America. And it's not clear to

443
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 1: me exactly where the malfeasance is. It might be the

444
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:15,720
Speaker 1: state of Georgia, although this is a federal matter.

445
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,240
Speaker 2: I use the example that I'd lived through this before,

446
00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 2: where a uh, some sort of plant, some sort of

447
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 2: you don't really want to do that for your living

448
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,000
Speaker 2: plant opened up in a small town near me in

449
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,439
Speaker 2: Kansas and it was all Vietnamese in a part of

450
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 2: the state where there were lots of Mexican people around.

451
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,879
Speaker 2: So why was it all Vietnamese for this plant? Clearly

452
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 2: they were working with somebody to end up that's random, just.

453
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,159
Speaker 1: A bunch of Vietnamese people, uh, answered aur Aad in

454
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 1: the International Times. Yeah, what are you gonna do? No, obviously, Yeah,

455
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:50,680
Speaker 1: there's some sort of pipeline with some sort of wink

456
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 1: and nod by somebody, and that sure looks like what

457
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:57,680
Speaker 1: this is. Because Brian camp the governor of Georgia, who

458
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 1: in general life I think highly of, he had touted

459
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:05,159
Speaker 1: this gigantic investment that is, like most of these things,

460
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 1: not exactly paying the dividends that it was supposed to.

461
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 1: But Hyundai and LG Energy Solutions, which is their partner,

462
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 1: because it's it's I think it's mostly an evy battery plant.

463
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 1: That's that's most of the thing. It seems like. Instead

464
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:25,800
Speaker 1: of hiring a bunch of Americans, including union guys who

465
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,040
Speaker 1: may or may not be making more than they should whatever,

466
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna argue that point, but they mostly just

467
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 1: brought in a bunch of South Koreans and the big

468
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:41,000
Speaker 1: parent companies are like, yeah, our people are legal, but

469
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:43,720
Speaker 1: they turned a blind eye to what all the subcontractors

470
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 1: were doing or just flying in hundreds and hundreds of

471
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 1: Koreans who spoke the same language, who had the same

472
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 1: work ethic, slash traditions whatever and uh and and it

473
00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 1: like generated very few American jobs. It was all Koreans

474
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:02,800
Speaker 1: doing the work in there. Now, I feel like.

475
00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:05,639
Speaker 2: I saw or heard a tease of something about Trump

476
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,360
Speaker 2: saying he's going to crack down on the business.

477
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 1: End of that, but I haven't followed up on that.

478
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,439
Speaker 2: Which has always been a problem with the whole illegal

479
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:20,879
Speaker 2: immigration thing. If you would go after the businesses, I

480
00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:24,440
Speaker 2: think you could end this, but there's never been will

481
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:24,879
Speaker 2: to do that.

482
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, now Trump did say, uh, looks like there

483
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 1: are a bunch of illegal aliens in Ice. Was just

484
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 1: doing their jobs, okay, which is good. Yeah, definitely. How

485
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:47,200
Speaker 1: do you import hundreds, like almost five hundred Koreans to

486
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:50,160
Speaker 1: work at this new plant? Well? Does that work?

487
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,480
Speaker 2: An example I'm using of Garden City, Kansas in the

488
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 2: eighties they opened. I forget what the plant was, but

489
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:57,160
Speaker 2: it was not a place that you particularly want to work.

490
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 2: Thousands and thousands of people from Vietnam all of a sudden,

491
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 2: we're working there. I mean that is some sort of

492
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 2: agreement between the plant and the country of Vietnam or

493
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,560
Speaker 2: something to make that happen, and somebody at.

494
00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:13,760
Speaker 1: State Department has to be going along with it. You

495
00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:18,000
Speaker 1: would think, so, yeah, yeah, well, the giant meat companies,

496
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:19,000
Speaker 1: they have a lot of influence.

497
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:22,119
Speaker 2: And then you can understand from the company standpoint, especially

498
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:25,760
Speaker 2: since we've been you know, winking and nodding this to

499
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 2: death for decades, you don't want eight different languages. How

500
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 2: about I just get one group of people from one

501
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 2: country that all speak the same language, right, and put

502
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 2: them in a neighborhood where they're all happy being together.

503
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 1: Well, and Hyundai's thinking, yeah, you got a bunch of fat,

504
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:46,800
Speaker 1: lazy Georgians around here. They don't want, you know, if

505
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 1: we can get them to quote unquote work at all,

506
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 1: they don't work much. Or we could bring in a

507
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,560
Speaker 1: bunch of South Koreans who you know, from the age

508
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,080
Speaker 1: of six on or part of a drill and kill

509
00:28:56,160 --> 00:29:00,239
Speaker 1: culture where you excel or you commit suicide, and them

510
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 1: worked themselves to death. It's a better deal for us.

511
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:03,920
Speaker 1: That's what they did.

512
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 2: If you know anything about that Texas or emails, because

513
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 2: there's obviously something hinky going on there. We will finish

514
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 2: strong next. Appreciate a lot that there are fans of

515
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 2: this radio show. I mean, that's awesome in addition to

516
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,239
Speaker 2: just being listeners like fans, like we're I don't know

517
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 2: a music group or something, and I was completely unaware

518
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,760
Speaker 2: where my group is at. Huh, yeah, what's the deal

519
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:32,960
Speaker 2: where my groupies be at?

520
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to turn you down because I'm faithful

521
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 1: to my wife, but I'd appreciate the effort.

522
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,719
Speaker 2: There's a Facebook fan page and a Reddit fan page

523
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,000
Speaker 2: that I was completely unaware of. It had been up

524
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,280
Speaker 2: for years and tens of thousands of people on it

525
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:51,479
Speaker 2: and I didn't know they existed.

526
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:53,560
Speaker 1: But anyway, and I never look at them.

527
00:29:53,880 --> 00:30:00,400
Speaker 2: But the Reddit page got taken down somebody posted something

528
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,959
Speaker 2: on there that violated Reddit policies, which I can't imagine

529
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 2: what that is because Reddit is full of lies, porn, filth,

530
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,719
Speaker 2: I mean, just I mean all kinds of craziness. What

531
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:17,400
Speaker 2: was posted on armstring and getting Reddit page that violated

532
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 2: their standards, I can't even imagine what that be.

533
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,560
Speaker 1: Two theories have emerged as i've studied the emails. Number one,

534
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 1: Reddit is run by mostly young way lefties, true, and

535
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 1: they despise us and everything they everything we hold deer

536
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 1: and so they're against us. The second one was that

537
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,840
Speaker 1: it was getting clogged with spam from somebody trying to

538
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:43,040
Speaker 1: get you to stream college football games for free or

539
00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,520
Speaker 1: something like that, and they had to shut it down.

540
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: I was on one.

541
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 2: I thought it was our Facebook recently, just to check

542
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 2: it out, and one of you, who I appreciate you listening,

543
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 2: but posted so much that it was impossible to see

544
00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:57,800
Speaker 2: anything else.

545
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:00,000
Speaker 1: So I thought, I don't know how anybody enjoys us.

546
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:02,800
Speaker 2: Maybe if you're a fan, try to keep your posts

547
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,000
Speaker 2: to a couple per day so other people can participate.

548
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 1: That's just my suggestion. Yeah, I guess I would have

549
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 1: to look at it to know, although there have been

550
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 1: a couple I've looked at just people have mentioned, hey,

551
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 1: they're saying this and that, and you might be and

552
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 1: I was somewhat amused. But thank you for listening. I mean,

553
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 1: obviously speaking of the monitors, you're a weirdo. Yeah, I mean,

554
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:26,880
Speaker 1: weirdo is just keep to yourself, right, don't unleash your

555
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:30,200
Speaker 1: weirdness on us AH. So, speaking of the modern world,

556
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 1: it's interesting. I'm involved in what I would call a

557
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:40,320
Speaker 1: local political situation, and it's interesting that it is very

558
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 1: much like the national political situation in that it's divided

559
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 1: and far nastier than it's ever been. There's nastiness in

560
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 1: the air and snark and people assuming that people who

561
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:57,719
Speaker 1: disagree with them don't disagree with them because they have

562
00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,680
Speaker 1: different needs or see the situation differently. Is that they

563
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:04,240
Speaker 1: must be bad people with bad motives? Is it that?

564
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 2: Or is that just the way we talk now, or

565
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 2: at least online, the way we talk and we just

566
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 2: feel like we have to.

567
00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 1: That's an interesting distinction. I mean expressing that whether they

568
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 1: feel now, I think they actually feel it.

569
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 2: Well, Like I'll use the example of last week. I

570
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 2: got Rio the football game in Brazil. I was mixing

571
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 2: up in my head Sal Paulo and Rio and I

572
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:32,200
Speaker 2: got that wrong, and there were responses on the text

573
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:36,920
Speaker 2: line that were just so angry and haimful, right as

574
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,960
Speaker 2: opposed to I think you're mixing the two towns Upper something.

575
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:43,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's really only two cities in Brazil, anybody knows,

576
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:45,200
Speaker 1: and you got it wrong.

577
00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:50,200
Speaker 2: But I just can't imagine being that angry about how

578
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 2: could you possibly be so stupid? Do some research, you know,

579
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,320
Speaker 2: that sort of just and I just think it's the

580
00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 2: way you feel like you got to talk online.

581
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:02,640
Speaker 1: Do you get any attention? It's an interesting distinction. And

582
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:07,280
Speaker 1: we have noticed that occasionally once in a while somebody

583
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 1: unleashes that sort of venom who I thought like I

584
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 1: had a friendly email relationship with because I don't answer

585
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 1: a lot just because of time, but I answer some

586
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 1: and you know, say hey, thanks, I disagree, but here's

587
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:22,840
Speaker 1: why blah blah blah. And whenever we call somebody on it,

588
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:25,560
Speaker 1: they immediately apologize and say, I'm sorry, I didn't really

589
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 1: mean that I had a bad day or whatever. Blah

590
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 1: blah blah. So maybe you're right. Maybe it's it's just

591
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:34,479
Speaker 1: the lingua franca, as they said, So I remember you

592
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 1: talking about one of your kids doing what the haters

593
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 1: gonna hate.

594
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:41,720
Speaker 2: It was just so used to the way people talk

595
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:43,720
Speaker 2: online it didn't mean anything to them. So maybe it's

596
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 2: just a when we're all dead, those of us who

597
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 2: didn't grow up with calling each other, you know, hateful

598
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:54,960
Speaker 2: liar mf ors all the time, the younger crowd will

599
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,360
Speaker 2: be so used to it, it won't won't be a

600
00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:57,720
Speaker 2: big deal.

601
00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, well you know, human's get a human. I'll bet

602
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 1: it goes in cycles. I'll bet they decide it's too

603
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:09,440
Speaker 1: much and they start getting nice again. Maybe. Final thought

604
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:16,680
Speaker 1: speaking of nice, gee, it's fantastic stuff. Good stuff. Takes

605
00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 1: me back to a better time. Here's your host for

606

Speaker 1: about my prunes, and so I think soon you'll be

619
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,720
