1
00:00:01,840 --> 00:00:06,120
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George

2
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:10,880
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty Armstrong and

3
00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:17,240
Speaker 1: Getty and he Armstrong and Getty.

4
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:25,600
Speaker 2: But they forget that Ukraine isn't the kind of country

5
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:26,319
Speaker 2: you go all in on.

6
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:27,360
Speaker 1: This is ridiculous.

7
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:31,640
Speaker 2: I honestly can't imagine anyone in their right mind picking

8
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:34,520
Speaker 2: Ukraine as an ally when Russia is the other option.

9
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 2: I mean, just think about it, massive nuclear power, loaded

10
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 2: with natural resources. Everyone needs, literally the biggest country on

11
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:44,839
Speaker 2: the planet. And haha, there's Ukraine, which has Chernobyl and

12
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 2: some radiation proof dogs.

13
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 3: Yeah.

14
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,559
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, the Biden administration is like, oh, yeah, this is

15
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 2: definitely the ally we need. Let's dump all our money

16
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 2: into them. Honestly, if anything, the US should have been

17
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 2: sending weapons to Russia.

18
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 4: Pretty shocking stuff from Don Trump ju year yesterday on

19
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:06,039
Speaker 4: a podcast immediately recognizable voice, shocking statements.

20
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 1: As you say, I got a little squinty listening to it,

21
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:22,039
Speaker 1: but only because it was too much that is AI generated.

22
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 1: I'm not sure ever said that. I'm not sure I

23
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 1: would have.

24
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 4: I don't know, based on some of the things his

25
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 4: dad had said in the last week or so. I'm

26
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,679
Speaker 4: not sure I would have jumped to that this can't

27
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:32,119
Speaker 4: be real.

28
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 5: Oh, I was not confident at all.

29
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:37,119
Speaker 1: No, I'm just saying I thought, wait a minute, there's

30
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: there's something just a little too odd and perfect and

31
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 1: over the top radiation proof dogs Don Junior does have

32
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 1: a pretty good sense of humor, but honestly, if it

33
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 1: had been a little more subtle, I would have bought

34
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 1: it completely.

35
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 4: Well, it got retweeted by an awful lot of legit organizations,

36
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 4: Democrats and some Republicans are more pro supporting Ukraine, and

37
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 4: a lot of those people have pull it down later

38
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 4: in the day when it became clear that it was

39
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 4: AI generated. And I think this is the most the first,

40
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 4: most successful time people have been hoodwinked in an important story.

41
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: It's going to happen a lot more in the future.

42
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,080
Speaker 4: It helps that it's just it was just audio in

43
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,919
Speaker 4: a podcast, so you didn't have any of the video stuff.

44
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 1: All the video gets.

45
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 4: Better every single day, and pretty sure we'll be completely

46
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,920
Speaker 4: falling for that. And even with the corrections and the

47
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 4: people who pulled it down, what percentage of people who

48
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,359
Speaker 4: heard that heard the correction later.

49
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 1: In the day that that wasn't real. I've seen studies

50
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 1: on that very thing, and it's a tiny fraction sure,

51
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 1: of course, that actually hears the retraction the correction, and

52
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 1: the original misperception becomes much much bigger. Yeah, yeah, that's

53
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 1: a problem.

54
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, it is.

55
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 1: It is a real problem, not only on the practical level,

56
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: because you can be so easily fooled.

57
00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 5: I mean any human being. Heck, were made to recognize.

58
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 1: Each other's voices and each other's faces, that's our method

59
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 1: of identification, and so on a practical level, obviously.

60
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,959
Speaker 5: You could mislead people seriously.

61
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 1: But on that second level, and this is the part

62
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 1: that really troubles me, And this is the point of

63
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 1: a lot of propagandas not to convince you of anything specific,

64
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 1: but to convince you that there is no knowing the truth.

65
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 1: Give up, there's no way to discern the truth. We

66
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,639
Speaker 1: are going to discourage you to the point that all

67
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:31,120
Speaker 1: you can do is obey. And I think AI could

68
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: easily get us to that point. I mean, if you

69
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 1: have a perfect Don Junior saying something outrageous but not

70
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 1: like two over the top, the effectiveness of that would

71
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: be near one hundred percent.

72
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 5: And then where do you go.

73
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 1: As a consumer of news, information and opinion, what do

74
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 1: you do? I don't know.

75
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 5: Wait, I suppose.

76
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 1: Maybe as a species or as a society, will get

77
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 1: a little less anxious to leap to opinions and immediately

78
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: clap back. We'll have to go through a process of

79
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: could be legit, maybe not. We've got to wait and see.

80
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 4: I would like to think that we're going to gravitate

81
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 4: back toward gatekeepers the way we used to have with

82
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 4: and I realized this is flawed and that they were

83
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 4: all left leaning, but it was, you know, your big

84
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 4: evening newscasts, big newspapers, big magazines were gatekeepers, and you

85
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,720
Speaker 4: had at least some reason to believe that they were

86
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 4: trying to not feed you things that were completely inaccurate.

87
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 4: But I don't know if people have any interest in that.

88
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:42,720
Speaker 5: No, No, that's a really good question. I don't know either.

89
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 1: There's a real difference between the kron kite left and

90
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 1: the woke left. Oh heck, yeah.

91
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,799
Speaker 5: But I don't know if there's enough.

92
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 1: Of a market for it to overcome the clickbaity, you know,

93
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 1: bubble information, information biased society. I don't know. I doubt it, honestly, Yeah,

94
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,160
Speaker 1: I don't I have no idea where this is going.

95
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 5: That's interesting to watch. We're going to live through it,

96
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:13,479
Speaker 5: so yeah, no kidding.

97
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: You know. The only thing that heartens me at times

98
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,479
Speaker 1: like this was, you know, we've gone through revolutions and

99
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,719
Speaker 1: wars and meteors and plagues and as human beings and

100
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 1: I don't buy it. This is why I didn't get

101
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 1: to the end. I know the end. This is different. Well,

102
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 1: the end is a planet of the beavers. As I've

103
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 1: made clear. You want to talk about something I am

104
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 1: certain about, that is it?

105
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:34,080
Speaker 6: No?

106
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 1: I know. The argument is always like, there's been all

107
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 1: kinds of major changes in society that have been deemed

108
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 1: that will be the end of the world, whether it's

109
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 1: rock and roll music or the printing press or television

110
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 1: or whatever the hell. But this is different. Speaking of

111
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 1: deep fakes and AI and cheap fakes, Jake Tapper's book,

112
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 1: can we talk.

113
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 5: About that for another minute or two?

114
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 1: Fourteen? This is Joe Conshew on Fox News. I think

115
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 1: he's sums it up pretty well. Tapper writing this book

116
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: is like Hannibal Lecter writing one on the dangers of cannibalism.

117
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 5: It's original sin.

118
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,679
Speaker 1: President Biden's decline it's cover up in his disastrous choice

119
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: to run again. And I like Tapper, who could not

120
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 1: have been a more enthusiastic.

121
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 5: Cover upper coverver rupper of.

122
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:24,800
Speaker 1: The president's mental decline than he was. Just unbelievable.

123
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 4: And I like to picture on the cover of the

124
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 4: book and it comes out in May, it's Joe Biden

125
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 4: with is it his hands over his eyes or somebody

126
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 4: else's hands over his eyes, but anyway, it's basically the

127
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 4: we're not gonna look at you know, we're gonna we're

128
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 4: gonna blind ourselves to reality.

129
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 5: Well, you were part of it.

130
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 1: So the fact I knew this book would come out

131
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 1: at some point, but I didn't think it'd be by one.

132
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 5: Of the participants right in the cover. So incredibly egregious

133
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 5: and worth noting. Klippner thirteen Hanson that.

134
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: While anybody like us who was stating that which was

135
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 1: plainly clear, would receive nasty pushback. The White House is

136
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 1: calling cheap fakes. We're hearing about so called cheap fakes.

137
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: It's playing out on right wing media. These videos, I mean,

138
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 1: they're blatant lies.

139
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 5: These are cheap fakes with the White House and Biden.

140
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: People call them cheap fakes are a little bit simpler.

141
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 5: They're cheap.

142
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 7: They're just disorted, out of context, videos chopped up in

143
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 7: certain ways, constructed in certain ways.

144
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 1: Several of those clips from CNN, well, right.

145
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 4: We played the clip yesterday of Jake Tapper yelling at

146
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 4: somebody who brought up it was a Republican who brought

147
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 4: up on his show, Joe Biden's you know, mental decline,

148
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 4: and Jake Tapper said, oh no, no, these are talking points.

149
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 1: The guy has a stutter. You have no evidence what

150
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 1: you're diagnosing him from Afar? You know that he's senile.

151
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 1: Come on, when the American people could figure it out,

152
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 1: and you're going to write a book President Biden's decline,

153
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 1: its cover up, and his disastrous choice to run again?

154
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 1: Did you call it a disastrous choice at the time?

155
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 1: And I read one on this point out that two

156
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: months after the inauguration, she was writing about how Biden

157
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: forgot the name of the Pentagon as well as the

158
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 1: name of his secretary of Defense and wrote, these are

159
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 1: not isolated incidents, These are not selectively edited clips.

160
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 5: Something is wrong with Biden and it should concern all

161
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 5: of us.

162
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 1: That was two months after the inauguration and honestly throughout

163
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 1: the campaign. When he would wander off, not take questions.

164
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 1: He had prompts telling him stage directions, identifying press Corps members.

165
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 1: He would only answer a couple of questions. He would

166
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 1: stammer out his answers, Robert her declining to prosecute for

167
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,120
Speaker 1: the reasons we all discussed kindly old man with a

168
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 1: bad memory, So putting you know, another layer of are

169
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:48,679
Speaker 1: you kidding me? On top of Tappers just incredible hypocrisy

170
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,320
Speaker 1: is the idea that And it all happened in the

171
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: last six weeks or so of his presidency, and they

172
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 1: covered it up, and now I'm bravely writing about it.

173
00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 4: What I often think Molly Hemingway's over the top. But

174
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,439
Speaker 4: she had a funny tweet response to Jake Tapper's book release.

175
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,719
Speaker 4: She tweeted out lots of capital letter words in here,

176
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 4: the mother bleeping audacity of you to do this after

177
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 4: running twenty four or seven interference on behalf of him

178
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 4: and mocking and attacking every single person who noticed Biden's decline.

179
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:22,199
Speaker 4: The mother beleeping audacity, Have you no decency?

180
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 1: Have you no shame? That is a perfectly reasonable response. Wow, Wow, Yeah,

181
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:32,840
Speaker 1: I think it is well, you know what, I'm gonna

182
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 1: leave it there. It's it is self beclownman of a

183
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 1: Titanic proportion. I can't even it. It's difficultiable Is this

184
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:49,080
Speaker 1: a deep fake? Is this a really kind of clever

185
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 1: double reverse trying to convince us that Jake Tapper, of

186
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 1: all people, has the audacity to write a book informing us.

187
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 1: Now you gonna want to sit down for this. Joe

188
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 1: Biden had a serious metal decline, was senile, and some people,

189
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 1: including the media, we're covering it up.

190
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 5: Come on, nobody'd have balls that big.

191
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 1: Please, I can't believe it's true.

192
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, that is something. I also bet there's some really

193
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 4: good stuff in the book. I mean, he's clearly checked

194
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 4: his shame, hypocrisy, whatever at the door. But I'll bet

195
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 4: there's some really good nuggets in that book about people

196
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:33,080
Speaker 4: covering it up.

197
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 1: So I look forward to it. Well, here's a multi

198
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 1: multi layered Twitter storm from this alleged independent journalist explaining

199
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:48,040
Speaker 1: how these pieces he's talking about, the dozens of pieces

200
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,560
Speaker 1: that came out of journalism in the wake of the

201
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 1: her announcement, These pieces are baseless. They can't be evaluated

202
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 1: because of ani total memory lapses just utterly unfair, no

203
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:08,559
Speaker 1: medical basis irresponsible. So do you think there's a chance

204
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 1: that we're misreading it and we're all so.

205
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 5: Not bubbled?

206
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 4: But like, I don't know a slave to our wishes

207
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 4: that they just they actually couldn't their their minds wouldn't

208
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,239
Speaker 4: let them see his decline.

209
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,439
Speaker 1: That's a fascinating question. I have no idea the answer

210
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 1: of it. I wish it were possible to answer that question,

211
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 1: because I'd love to hear it. Jake Tapper is a

212
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 1: smart guy, and we've talked to him before. He for

213
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 1: the longest time I thought he was a very reasonable

214
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 1: and very good journalist. This is inexplicable unless it is

215
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:51,199
Speaker 1: it's either ideology, deliberate dishonesty, or some aspect of the

216
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:55,719
Speaker 1: human mental condition like you're suggesting. That is scary and

217
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 1: I'd love to know more about.

218
00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, like getting back to our dear abbey thing did

219
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,680
Speaker 4: last hour? I've seen this happen before, and I remember

220
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 4: this woman saying, this wife saying to me one time,

221
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:07,839
Speaker 4: it's easy to believe a lie if you really want

222
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 4: it to be true. It was on the idea that

223
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 4: her husband was not being the way he should be

224
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,680
Speaker 4: and she so didn't want it to be true. Wow,

225
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 4: the book I'm reading about Martin Luther King Jr. His

226
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 4: wife to the very end convinced that Martin did not

227
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,079
Speaker 4: cheat on her. I did not know that, but anyway,

228
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 4: it's the whole. I don't want this to be true.

229
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 4: So I just can't even let that in.

230
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 1: Is that what the media was doing?

231
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 4: They just so didn't want it to be true that

232
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 4: Joe Biden, you know, needed to step down. It was

233
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 4: gonna help Trump get elected, and blah blah blah. They

234
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:37,679
Speaker 4: couldn't see it.

235
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:42,839
Speaker 1: I wonder, Yeah, you know, the marital thing's a little

236
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,439
Speaker 1: different obviously because of the incredibly deep emotional bond there.

237
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,319
Speaker 1: But I just if you fall for that, you are

238
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:54,199
Speaker 1: weak minded. If you are that blinded by your own wishes. Seriously,

239
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 1: you shouldn't be a journalist. For one thing. I tell

240
00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 1: you if you and this is not to portray myself

241
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,439
Speaker 1: as sort of paragun but if you want me to

242
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:06,319
Speaker 1: explain any flaws or weaknesses in my arguments at any point,

243
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 1: I would do that for you, because I'm acutely aware

244
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 1: of them. I like to think, now, do I have

245
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,440
Speaker 1: some confirmation bias? Of course, I do.

246
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,199
Speaker 5: But yeah, Jake tap or shame on you.

247
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, be interesting to see what's in that book and

248
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 1: the way it's received, Like everybody's just like this is

249
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 1: shocked by these revelations.

250
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,480
Speaker 5: That'll be something to watch. Also, we've got a lot

251
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 5: more of this hour. Stay here.

252
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:29,439
Speaker 1: Strong.

253
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:34,560
Speaker 6: I'm confident at this point knock on wood you know,

254
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:35,199
Speaker 6: knock on my.

255
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 1: Wooden head.

256
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 6: Se gouts A lot of would have there that we

257
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 6: can actually find a trillion dollars in savings. We do

258
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:47,360
Speaker 6: need to move quickly if we're if we're to achieve

259
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:53,280
Speaker 6: a trillion dollar deficit reduction and financially twenty twenty six,

260
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 6: it requires saving four billion dollars per day every day

261
00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:59,320
Speaker 6: from now through the end of September.

262
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 1: But we can do it, and we will do it.

263
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 4: Elon Musk yesterday in that first cabinet meeting of the

264
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:10,280
Speaker 4: Trump administration, and a lot of the cabinet members there

265
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:14,319
Speaker 4: to me not looking super jazz that Elon had so

266
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 4: much time to speak.

267
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 1: But I could be reading into their facial expressions. I

268
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 1: don't know, but I like Elon pointing out, look, we

269
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: got to say four billion dollars a day through September,

270
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 1: just to keep from going under.

271
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 5: In that spirit.

272
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 1: And you know, Trump's foreign policy leaves me scratching my

273
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 1: head or troubles me. But with him sometimes he throws

274
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 1: things in a chaos then comes to a decent solution.

275
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 1: The jury is still out to me on Trump foreign relations.

276
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 1: I mean really seriously, the jury is out.

277
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 5: But this stuff I could not be more enthusiastic about.

278
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 1: Brett Bear talked to Howard Lutnick, who's the Secretary of Commerce,

279
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 1: and we've got some clips later on the hour of

280
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 1: Lutnik describing the things they're trying to do.

281
00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 5: It is awe inspiring. It's beyond great. It's like, let's

282
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 5: have a party.

283
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 1: Great if they can even do half of what they're

284
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 1: talking about in terms of raining in the bloat, the redundancy,

285
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 1: the stupidity of the federal government.

286
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 5: Great stuff. Can't wait to play it.

287
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 1: It's breaking news.

00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:46,560
Speaker 1: to paraphrase the Wall Street Journal's slogan advocating for America

316
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 1: and freedom.

317
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 5: Absolutely love that way to go.

318
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 1: Jeff yeah, and specifically saying that any articles that are

319
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,400
Speaker 1: counter to that will have to be published elsewhere. I

320
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: mean just like the editorials. Yeah, yeah, any opinion pieces

321
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,159
Speaker 1: in that you want to write about that, I ain't

322
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 1: gonna be in this newspaper. I like to take your

323
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 1: commy clap trap elsewhere.

324
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 5: Thank you.

325
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 1: Really interesting new poll out about a lot that's going

326
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 1: on in the country. Those results coming up armstrong and getty.

327
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 4: So you didn't feel like Marco and RFK Jr. And

328
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 4: heg Zeth or any of the other cabinet members looked

329
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:26,639
Speaker 4: a little uncomfortable with Elon.

330
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:28,480
Speaker 5: No, I wouldn't.

331
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 1: I wouldn't deny that. No, No, they just look serious

332
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:33,399
Speaker 1: to me. I didn't think much about it, but I

333
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 1: don't disagree with you that they're a little like he

334
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 1: when's he going to shut up? I'm the secretary of

335
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,120
Speaker 1: something or other and I haven't said a damn word.

336
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:44,640
Speaker 1: I want to get back to that discussion and doge

337
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 1: in a recent poll. I'm giving myself ninety seconds by

338
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 1: the clock to do something else first, because I know

339
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 1: me I'll start ranting. But I wanted to squeeze this in.

340
00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,359
Speaker 1: We're talking about Senile Joe Biden earlier and I begun

341
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 1: the timer and I've talked about doctor Ethan Ham, thirty

342
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: four year old whistleblower who reported that the Texas Children

343
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 1: Hospital was continuing to perform gender transition surgeries on children

344
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,400
Speaker 1: even after Texas outlawed the process.

345
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 5: And he's a hero and the rest of it.

346
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 1: What I didn't know until today was because Trump rescinded it,

347
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 1: the Biden administration issued an executive something or other edict

348
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:39,400
Speaker 1: that protected hospitals from state investigations into gender transition procedures. Wow,

349
00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 1: it was a complete inversion of the role of the AHHS,

350
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 1: the rule of the legal framework, says Ethan Ham, it

351
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 1: outlaw well what it does. What it did was it

352
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 1: gave hospitals the right not to comply with state level

353
00:18:56,359 --> 00:19:01,120
Speaker 1: investigations related to the provision of transgender medical treatment to minors.

354
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 1: That is a if there's been a more perverse use

355
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 1: of the power of the federal government, I have no

356
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:11,440
Speaker 1: idea what it was. Wow, that's just insane. That should

357
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 1: be known by more people, and I only have nine

358
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 1: seconds to tell you. It also clear that the Biden

359
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: FCC absolutely approved George Soros buying two hundred radio stations

360
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,159
Speaker 1: in a way that there's never been an approval before.

361
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:28,360
Speaker 1: They skipped all of the regulatory steps and just said no, no, no,

362
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 1: you can do it. Most people are outrageous. Good lord, No,

363
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,680
Speaker 1: nobody's ever going to hear these stories. All right, that's

364
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 1: ninety seconds My alarm went off. Moving along back to

365
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 1: Elon Musk. Here's Elon in the cabinet meeting as Marco

366
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:42,880
Speaker 1: Rubio was starting to look slightly miffed.

367
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 8: According to Jack, the overall goal here with the dog

368
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 8: team is to help address the almost topic that we

369
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 8: still we cannot sustain at the country. Two trillion dollar

370
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:56,119
Speaker 8: death seats, the interest rates, that just the interest on

371
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:57,360
Speaker 8: the national debt.

372
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 6: Now it sees that a fast department sped. We spent

373
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,679
Speaker 6: a lot on the new pest department, but we're spending

374
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:07,399
Speaker 6: like over trillion dollars on interest. If this continues, the

375
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 6: country will become de facto bankrupt. It's not an optional thing.

376
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 6: It is a central thing. That's that's the reason I'm

377
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,879
Speaker 6: here and taking a lot of plaque and getting a

378
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 6: lot of death threats. By the way, I would like

379
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 6: to stuck them up there. But if we don't do this,

380
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 6: America will go bankrupt. That's why it has to be done.

381
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 1: So he's absolutely right, and that's great stuff. I had

382
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 1: said yesterday on the show that that Doge and Elon

383
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:42,919
Speaker 1: have less than majority support, they are underwater poll number wise,

384
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,679
Speaker 1: and one of our beloved listeners, and I apologize I

385
00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 1: didn't keep handy who sent this along, but it's great.

386
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 5: Oh it's Ben.

387
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 1: He said, I'm not sure where you're getting those numbers

388
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:58,120
Speaker 1: because the Harris the Harvard Harris pole just came out

389
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:03,000
Speaker 1: and it seems different, and Ben, thank you for the information.

390
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:04,879
Speaker 1: It just illustrates so beautifully what we said for a

391
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,960
Speaker 1: long time. It is so easy to manipulate issues polling

392
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 1: with wording, because the one I saw was and I

393
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,160
Speaker 1: wish I had in front of you, but it said essentially,

394
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 1: do you think Elon Musk and the Doge team is

395
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 1: working too fast and doing too much or exceeding their authority?

396
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 1: That sort of thing? And yeah, pretty good percentage of Americans.

397
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:26,679
Speaker 5: Agreed with that.

398
00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:33,400
Speaker 1: But this is the Harvard Harris pole and they say

399
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 1: two in three voters say the federal government's debt is unsustainable.

400
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,960
Speaker 1: You third that don't say that, You gotta wow, show

401
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 1: me your math. As they used to say in math class, show.

402
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:46,119
Speaker 5: Me your work.

403
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:50,439
Speaker 1: Wow. Anyway, but over four and five say they should

404
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 1: work to balance the budget.

405
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,880
Speaker 5: So if you were to question people in a way that.

406
00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:01,480
Speaker 1: Emphasized a little bit more style and personality, you could

407
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,880
Speaker 1: easily portray and it was portrayed this way that DOGE

408
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:08,199
Speaker 1: is highly unpopular in their work. People not supporting the

409
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,520
Speaker 1: unelected billionaire Elon Musk.

410
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 5: But if you look at the.

411
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 1: Underlying you know, the principles that we're talking about, there's

412
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,320
Speaker 1: overwhelming support for it.

413
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,959
Speaker 4: If four out of five people think we should balance

414
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,479
Speaker 4: a budget, how do we keep electing two parties that

415
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 4: have no interest in doing that?

416
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 1: Because when it comes down to crunch time, you go

417
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 1: with who is going to promise you more as the

418
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 1: common voter.

419
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:34,000
Speaker 5: I think.

420
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 1: It's that is a really interesting contrast.

421
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:41,159
Speaker 6: The U.

422
00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 1: And I'm reminded once again of one of my all

423
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 1: time favorites Thomas Sowell.

424
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 5: Quotes, and I've got like fifty of them, maybe.

425
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,480
Speaker 1: One hundred and fifty, is that we're partly to blame

426
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:52,879
Speaker 1: for the fact that politicians are such liars, because if we,

427
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 1: over and over again demand the impossible from them, only

428
00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 1: liars can get elected right, and we want a dollar

429
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 1: thirty in government services for a dollar perpetually and never

430
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 1: any tax increases.

431
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, that first poll of two thirds of people think

432
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:13,480
Speaker 4: we're going to go broke, like you said the other third.

433
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 5: God, I'd love to sit down with those people.

434
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,920
Speaker 1: I just like to, you know, explain to me how

435
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 1: you see things. It might be some of those lunatics

436
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 1: who believe that the monetarists or whatever the liberal economist

437
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 1: group thinks that that will just keep printing money or

438
00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 1: thought about it that much. Yeah, I was gonna say,

439
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:37,679
Speaker 1: And a few of them are probably the No we

440
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:39,680
Speaker 1: can grow away out of this crowd. Trump's been talking

441
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 1: about that even as they cut like crazy, which is good,

442
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:46,400
Speaker 1: but I think it's mostly morons. Some more, some more

443
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,160

468
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: An overwhelming majority of voters say the government should reduce

469
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:59,439
Speaker 1: government expenses over increasing taxes, and a full examination of

470
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 1: expenditure is needed. The taxes versus expenditures thing. You know,

471
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 1: that's interesting. It's eighty three to seventeen the devil's in

472
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 1: the details. But I thought, here's the way the questions phrase,

473
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 1: and I thought this was even more interesting. Do you

474
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 1: think that we are in need of a full examination

475
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:22,199
Speaker 1: of all government expenditures? Or should we not get in

476
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:26,400
Speaker 1: the way of current contracts and expenditures? And it's seventy

477
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:30,120
Speaker 1: seven twenty three that no, we got to turn over

478
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 1: every rock and look at it, which is heartening, but

479
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 1: in a raw political taking a look at it through

480
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:41,959
Speaker 1: the political lens. The idea that Chuck Schumer and Jakeem

481
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 1: Jeffreys and the others are on the hill, on the

482
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 1: steps of Capitol Hill saying, how dare they disrupt look

483
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 1: at all these government programs that everyone loves, these pure bureaucrats.

484
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 1: There's very very little constituency for that. In fact, it's

485
00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:05,480
Speaker 1: it's mockable as a pitch to voters given the numbers.

486
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 1: But four for the millionth time, we got to when

487
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:11,639
Speaker 1: there ought to be like confetti fall out of this

488
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:13,959
Speaker 1: guy when we say this for the millionth time, for

489
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:18,440
Speaker 1: the almost one millionth time, the media reports it as

490
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,680
Speaker 1: if that's what most Americans believe, even though it's a

491
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 1: tiny subset seven to ten voters think government expenditures are

492
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:32,200
Speaker 1: filled with waste. That's the actual phrase from the Harvard

493
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:34,639
Speaker 1: Hairs poll. Do you think that the government expenditures are

494
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 1: basically fair and reasonable or do you think they are

495
00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:38,480
Speaker 1: filled with waste, fraud, and inefficiency?

496
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 5: Seventy to thirty.

497
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 1: Wow, that's fantastic. It is happy to hear that. This

498
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 1: is why folks like us who are not the mainstream

499
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:50,240
Speaker 1: media I think are growing and growing and growing in

500
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 1: the mainstream media are withering and withering because they're so

501
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 1: effing dishonest.

502
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:54,439
Speaker 5: Pardon me?

503
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 1: Do you support or oppose the goal of cutting one

504
00:26:57,960 --> 00:26:59,680
Speaker 1: trillion dollars of government expenditures?

505
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:05,119
Speaker 5: Nine to thirty one? That's in quarters. Okay, how about this?

506
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 1: Do you think there should be a US government agency

507
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,439
Speaker 1: focused on efficiency initiatives or not?

508
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 5: Seventy two twenty eight Yes.

509
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,360
Speaker 1: Do you think the so called Department of Government Efficiency DOGE,

510
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:18,680
Speaker 1: led by Elon Musk?

511
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:20,280
Speaker 5: They go ahead and mention his name.

512
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 1: Is helping make major cuts and government expenditures or not

513
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 1: helping wins sixty to forty. There you see a little

514
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 1: Elon fatigue or you know that sort of thing creeping

515
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 1: in And indeed, when you ask do you think DOGE

516
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,720
Speaker 1: employees should have access to all information on government expenditures,

517
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:41,680
Speaker 1: including sensitive information on Americans, including name, social Security numbers.

518
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:43,880
Speaker 5: Is then you get a no answer.

519
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:47,600
Speaker 1: But in general, if they can avoid you know, the

520
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:49,920
Speaker 1: most obvious of excesses and screw.

521
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:53,200
Speaker 5: Ups, they have huge popular support.

522
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 1: Somebody ought to tell the New York Times that and

523
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:02,440
Speaker 1: Jake Tapper in the Washington Post huge support A law

524
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:05,159
Speaker 1: A law. Well, that's the best news I've heard today,

525
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 1: that polling. I like to wait still several hours into

526
00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 1: the show to give anybody any good news. I like

527
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:17,280
Speaker 1: to just batter them and discourage them as much as possible.

528
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,320
Speaker 1: Some of the bad news woke up to, of course,

529
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:22,680
Speaker 1: is that Gene Hackman.

530
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:26,120
Speaker 4: Is dead, the great actor. Not that he was doing

531
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 4: a lot of movies lately. He retired quite a few

532
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,919
Speaker 4: years ago. My favorite actor of all time, Gene Hackman.

533
00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:32,879
Speaker 4: I used to go to any movie he would be in.

534
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:34,600
Speaker 4: I would go see because I liked it so much.

535
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 1: Anyway, he and his wife and dog all died overnight,

536
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 1: and they haven't announced yet.

537
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 5: Why gotta be carbon monoxide or.

538
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:48,080
Speaker 4: Something like that, gas leak or something. Is ninety five,

539
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 4: but she is only sixily sixty five so you know,

540
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:56,280
Speaker 4: why did they both die?

541
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 1: Well?

542
00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 5: And the dog?

543
00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:01,240
Speaker 1: Come on, the dog didn't dis end his own life,

544
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 1: so asked, yes, Katie, do we have an update?

545
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 8: Yeah, they just did an update saying that one of

546
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 8: the dogs died.

547
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 1: There were two that lived, and they're speculating as to

548
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 1: why they were in separate bedroom. Those dogs did it?

549
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 1: The two dogs did it?

550
00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 5: The dog he got locked to them first?

551
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 1: Where were you.

552
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 5: That dog?

553
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:28,320
Speaker 1: Everyone knows that. Yeah, I get your I don't know

554
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:33,280
Speaker 1: carbon monoxide detector batteries checked or something. You got to

555
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 1: ask the dog just point blank, did you do it?

556
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 1: If it's fur gets up on its back, it's guilty.

557
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:44,480
Speaker 1: If it wags its tail, it's innocent, simple as that.

558
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 5: Too soon.

559
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:52,680
Speaker 4: The fact that they immediately announced no foul play, Yeah, yeah,

560
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 4: I think it was some sort of terrible accident.

561
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 1: How did they even find out? Did somebody do a

562
00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 1: wellness check? Like I hadn't heard from him in a

563
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 1: couple of days or what? No idea must have been

564
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:05,040
Speaker 1: something like that, right. Maybe the dogs who survived called again?

565
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:06,720
Speaker 1: Too soon? Too soon?

566
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:08,080
Speaker 5: Wow, I apologize.

567
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 1: Wow.

568
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:14,840
Speaker 4: We're gonna play one of Gene Hackman's greatest movie.

569
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 1: Roles for you an hour four. We'll have a clip

570
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 1: of that, among other things we got coming up systems. Yeah,

571
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,920
Speaker 1: my new favorite to figure in government, Howard Lutnik speaking

572
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 1: of cutting the budget and fiscal health. Oh my gosh,

573
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: great stuff. You're gonna love him. I don't like his name.

574
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:33,760
Speaker 1: What I don't like the name Lutnik? Yep, please, No,

575
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 1: that's the way it sounds. We got that coming up stair.

576
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:43,720
Speaker 1: We used the word Trantifa on the air before. Have

577
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:44,840
Speaker 1: I come across? Yes?

578
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, I have Yeah.

579
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 4: Anyway, our four we'll talk about this latest Trantifa activist

580
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 4: that just got arrested in Colorado wanting to blow up

581
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:55,280
Speaker 4: a Tesla property.

582
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:57,840
Speaker 1: Got some great audio to get to, so I'll keep

583
00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 1: this short, but I was just saying a jack off

584
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 1: the air. I am so glad we have people who

585
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 1: know what they're dealing doing, dealing with taxes and the

586
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 1: money stuff and everything. As we're getting toward tax time

587
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:09,720
Speaker 1: and we have a couple of different relationships and it's

588
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 1: a little complicated, but it returns me to the thought

589
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 1: that we've had so many times that it's insane that

590
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 1: a person, just a regular person with a regular tax return,

591
00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 1: has to pay somebody to help them figure out how

592
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 1: much the government owes them.

593
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 5: It's absolutely idiotic.

594
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 1: It needs to be reformed, it needs it desperately, and

595
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 1: maybe now is the time that happens.

596
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:30,959
Speaker 5: So Special Report with Brett Bear.

597
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 1: Last night Brett was talking to Howard Lutnick, who's the

598
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 1: secretary of Commerce at at his office, Commerce Building. And Lutnick,

599
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,680
Speaker 1: who is so excited about his job. He's really a

600
00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 1: fascinating guy. He ran a big firm on Wall Street,

601
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,720
Speaker 1: lost hundreds of employees on nine to eleven, including his brother.

602
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 1: He was only spared because he was taking his little

603
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 1: boy to his first day of school.

604
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,040
Speaker 5: Oh my god, I think it was his partner.

605
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:55,680
Speaker 1: As brothers little boys first day of school had been

606
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 1: the previous day, so Howard lived.

607
00:31:57,920 --> 00:31:58,680
Speaker 5: They all died.

608
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 1: But anyway, but he is so crazy enthusiastic about what

609
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 1: he's doing right now. I have two clips I want

610
00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:09,520
Speaker 1: to play for you from the from the interview. This

611
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 1: is forty eight first handsome.

612
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 7: US postal service coming under commerce. I mean, where did

613
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 7: that come from? And what is that about? And how

614
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 7: will Americans deal with it? Will it affect their mail?

615
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 9: No, it won't affect their mail. So the concept was,

616
00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 9: I'm sitting with the president and the costs of the

617
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:32,400
Speaker 9: post office are like it loses seven billion dollars and

618
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 9: he said, can you do something with it? And I

619
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:36,880
Speaker 9: said sure. So I saw him the next day. He goes, Okay,

620
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 9: what do he got? You know, he gives me a

621
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 9: whole twenty four hours to figure it out. And I said, well,

622
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:45,080
Speaker 9: the Commerce Department does the census, and we spend forty

623
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:48,080
Speaker 9: billion dollars every ten years doing the census, and that

624
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 9: means we hire six hundred and twenty five thousand people.

625
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 9: And they go and they rent cars and gas and

626
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 9: you paying food.

627
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:55,479
Speaker 3: And you know what they do. They go to every

628
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:57,840

Speaker 3: of the government to make us better and save us money.

652
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:47,880

Speaker 5: You know, we're loud howl liking great.

654
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 1: Is that that's fantastic even if the specifics don't work

655
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 1: out for some reason. The spirit of it, right, which

656
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:01,880
Speaker 1: is the spirit of private enterprise, come to government. Wait

657
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:03,720
Speaker 1: a minute, Wait a minute, Well, why are we doing

658
00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:06,400
Speaker 1: two different things here? They're essentially the same Businesses' combine

659
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,720
Speaker 1: them and save you know, seventy percent of the budget.

660
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:09,239
Speaker 1: That's right.

661
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:13,200
Speaker 4: And if you're only look at things as the way

662
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 4: people in government look at things, you could have two

663
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 4: things grow up separately that overlap, but you don't think

664
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 4: about it or care because you don't think about money.

665
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:23,239
Speaker 4: You don't care about money. There's endless tax payer money.

666
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,120
Speaker 4: You don't care if it's sufficient or not, as opposed

667
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,359
Speaker 4: to a businessman and says, wait, we got two things, we.

668
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:30,279
Speaker 1: Could have one thing right. It's way more insidious than

669
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:33,880
Speaker 1: not caring. You would never bring it to anybody's attention,

670
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 1: because then you wouldn't have the turf and the budget

671
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 1: and the people under you as the census guy. You

672
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 1: would never say, hey, you know what, mister president, the

673
00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 1: Post Office could do this. It just came to me

674
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 1: in a dream last night. We should get rid of

675

00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:53,200

677
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:57,160
Speaker 1: wait for that to happen. That's so positive and good.

678
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:58,839
Speaker 1: I hesitate to do this. Do we have time for

679
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,040
