1 00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:06,160 Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George 2 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:10,760 Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center. Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty, I'm strong 3 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:17,280 Speaker 1: and get Katie and he Armstrong and Getty. 4 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 2: This is a law that bands medical treatment only when 5 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 2: it is prescribed inconsistent with an individual sex. Our argument 6 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 2: is that that treats people differently because of their sex, 7 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,840 Speaker 2: and therefore the court has to treat it like all 8 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,000 Speaker 2: other forms of sex discrimination, and that's why it's unconstitutional. 9 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:47,480 Speaker 1: Right. That is the recent convert to felladomy. You got 10 00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 1: to mention Strangio, Who's I think given the obviously female 11 00:00:53,159 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 1: voice and everything, and it's a transgender person. I'm about arguments, genitals. 12 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 1: I'm Jack Armstrong. 13 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 3: Wow. 14 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:07,680 Speaker 1: Good stuff. So anyway, that is the trans lawyer speaking 15 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,760 Speaker 1: before the Supreme Court hearing in which the Tennessee law 16 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 1: which banned I'm going to try to be neutral here 17 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:26,800 Speaker 1: hormonal and chemical treatments for youth who believe they suffer 18 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 1: from gender dysphoria. Now I will describe it in the 19 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: way it ought to be described. Tennessee is trying to 20 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 1: say no, you can't do experimental and permanent treatments on 21 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 1: the basis of no science that hurts kids for the 22 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,839 Speaker 1: rest of their lives because you got some weird gender 23 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 1: ideology that nobody had ever heard of a decade ago. 24 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 1: Hurts kids. All respond to the same as Sodomore. Every 25 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 1: medical treatment has risks, including taking an aspirin that is 26 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: one of the most astone stupid things ever uttered in 27 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court, up to and including when the Supreme 28 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: Court janitor came upon something strange in the toilet bowl 29 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 1: and said, what's that? A fish that was smarter than 30 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,639 Speaker 1: what Soda Mayor said. I will, on the other hand, 31 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: also admit that sometimes I mean because she's not a 32 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 1: stupid woman. Law school is hard and she graduating at 33 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 1: the top of her class. I disagree with her vehemently 34 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: on the country and the Constitution and the rest of it, 35 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: but she's not dumb. Often the justices will probe the 36 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 1: attorney's arguments looking for weaknesses on their own side of 37 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: the point of view. So I'm not going to presume 38 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: that Sonya Soda Mayor is that blank and stupid. On 39 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 1: the other hand, she and Katanji Brown Jackson are so frickin' 40 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 1: ideology ideologically I can barely stand it, but I want 41 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:52,639 Speaker 1: to play a couple of highlights of some of the 42 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 1: questions and answers with the attorneys, and then I've come 43 00:02:56,280 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 1: across a really absolutely terrific breakdown of what the case season, 44 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 1: why it's clearly clearly going to be decided and must 45 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: be decided on the well our side of the question, 46 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 1: and for what it's worth. Blah blah blah. Disclaimer about 47 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: reading he leaves blah blah blah. The questioning is often 48 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 1: zabaz abazaba. It certainly sounded as if the conservative majority 49 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: has no intention of letting this lawsuit stand. And just 50 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: so you understand, because there's been some confusion I've sensed 51 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 1: through reading emails, the state of Tennessee said, no, you 52 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: can't do these bizarro completely unsupportable by science procedures on kids. 53 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: You gotta stop. And the plaintiffs are saying, well, that's 54 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: sex discrimination because you can feed testosterone to a boy 55 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: you lacks testosterone, but you won't feed it to a 56 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: girl who's momentarily confused about her gender. That's that's a 57 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: violation of the fourteenth Amendment, an assertion that would have 58 00:03:55,560 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: the writers of the Fourteenth Amendment either taking their head 59 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: and wonderment are go fawing out loud in my opinion. Yeah, 60 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: So the question is whether or not states can outlaw this, Yes, exactly, Yeah, 61 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: as twenty six have and it'll be fifty if there 62 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: is a god soon. This is indeed Matthew Price who's 63 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: arguing in favor of sanity, and so do Mayor in 64 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: forty three, please Michael. 65 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 4: Cannot eliminate the risk of detransitioners. So it becomes a 66 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 4: pure exercise of weighing benefits versus risk, and the question 67 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 4: of how many miners have to have their bodies irreparably 68 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 4: harmed for unproven benefits is one that is best left, I'm. 69 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:44,559 Speaker 5: Sorry, Counselor. Every medical treatment has a risk, even taking 70 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 5: aspron there is always going to be a percentage of 71 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 5: the population under any medical treatment that's going to suffer 72 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 5: a harm. So the question in my mind is not 73 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 5: do policy makers decide whether one person's life is more 74 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 5: valuable than the millions of others who get relief from 75 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 5: this treatment. The question is can you stop one sex 76 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:14,600 Speaker 5: from the other? 77 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 1: Well, now that I hear it in context, she was 78 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 1: not probing. She actually that's her argument. No, she's as 79 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: stupid as I said, she wasn't in the way that 80 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: ideology can like numb intelligence and remove it from the equation. 81 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 1: So she's buying that. I meant to look this up 82 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: because I remember the origin of the whole they'll kill 83 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 1: themselves if you don't operate them on thing was incredibly shaky, 84 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: slash fraudulent paper was put out based on hardly anything, 85 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: and people so in support of these trans operations for 86 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 1: kids have turned it into like a golden rule that 87 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: we all just agree with. If you don't let a 88 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 1: kid get operated on, they're gonna kill themselves. So is 89 00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: that what you want? You want a dead kid, Well, 90 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 1: then you better give them the operation. Yeah, unbelievable. So 91 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,799 Speaker 1: you ever worked in a place where the new person 92 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 1: in the organization dominates all the meetings, what do you 93 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: think of that person? Well, just as Catangi Brown Jackson 94 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: is the new kid on the block, talks like twice 95 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: as much as the second place person. She dominates this 96 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,359 Speaker 1: stuff all of a sudden, for what it's worth. But 97 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 1: she's a knot. That's the main problem. She's an forty 98 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 1: two Michael. 99 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 6: You know, as I read the statute here, excuse me 100 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 6: the case here, you know, The court starts off by 101 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 6: saying that Virginia is now one of sixteen states which 102 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 6: prohibit and punished marriages on the basis of racial classifications. 103 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,280 Speaker 6: And when you look at the structure of that law, 104 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 6: it looks in terms of incontinuing you can't do something 105 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 6: that is inconsistent with your own characteristics. 106 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 1: It's sort of the same thing. 107 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 6: So it's interesting to me that we now have this 108 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 6: different argument, and I wonder whether Virginia could have gotten 109 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 6: away with what they did here by just making a 110 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 6: classification argument the way that Tennessee is. 111 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 5: In this case. 112 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 7: Yes, I think that's exactly right, that there is absolutely 113 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 7: a parallel between any law that says you can't act 114 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 7: inconsistent with a protected. 115 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: Characteristic Jackson and the lawyer for the US government, which 116 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: is arguing against sanity, thanks Joe Biden, are saying that, well, 117 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: it looks like we could ban interracial marriage because it's 118 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: very similar, which ignores a giant, huge aspect of the 119 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: question here that I'll get into in a bit. I 120 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 1: can't even believe serious attorneys are making that argument. I'm astounded. 121 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: So that was KBJ Katanji Brown Jackson. So in case 122 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: you didn't fully catch what Joe said. At the end 123 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 1: of every Supreme Court session they add up the number 124 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: of words everybody said so you can see who talked 125 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 1: the most, and that they put out the chart like 126 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: a week or so ago. And she as the newest justice, Yeah, 127 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: talked twice as much as the chattiest other justice. Most 128 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: of the other ones were like a third of what 129 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: she taught to a tense Who does that? Who shows 130 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: up to a new workplace as the brand new person 131 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: and is the and talks twice as much as everybody else? 132 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 1: What kind of personality is that? Progressive activists wow now 133 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 1: representing sanity Justice Alito talking to the wispy bearded young 134 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: mister Strong Gio forty five. 135 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 8: But on page one ninety five the CAST report, it 136 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:36,239 Speaker 8: says there is no evidence that gender affirmative treatments reduce suicide. 137 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 9: What I think that is referring to is there is 138 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 9: no evidence in some in the studies that this treatment 139 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 9: reduces completed suicide. And the reason for that is completed suicide. Thankfully, 140 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 9: and admittedly it is rare, and we're talking about a 141 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 9: very small population of individuals with studies that don't necessarily 142 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 9: have completed suicides within them. 143 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 1: However, they're okay, he gets kind of rambling there. The 144 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:04,199 Speaker 1: point is, and Alito brought this up in several different contexts, saying, hey, 145 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 1: there's no evidence for what you're claiming. In fact, to 146 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 1: cast report, this other report, the study out of Norway, 147 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 1: they've all contradicted what you're claiming, and there's sciences sound 148 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,079 Speaker 1: and he was greeted with mumbo jumbo. I also want 149 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 1: to get to Justice Kavanaugh on forty six. 150 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 3: If it's evolving like that and changing, and England's pulling 151 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 3: back and Sweden's pulling back, it strikes me as pretty 152 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 3: heavy yellow light, if not red light, for this court 153 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 3: to come in the nine of US and to constitutionalize 154 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 3: the whole area when the rest of the world, or 155 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 3: at least the people who have the countries that have 156 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 3: been at the forefront of this, are pumping the brakes 157 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 3: on this kind of treatment because of concerns about the rests. 158 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I like Kavanaugh's argument like a bit of a judo. 159 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: It's like you're saying that the science is much more 160 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 1: solid than it actually is. But if it's so, you know, 161 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: strong on both sides, let's leave it to the states. 162 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: Is what Kavanaugh is saying, Yeah, it's kind of the 163 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 1: old double reverse in that he's saying, we're not going 164 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 1: to turn this into a constitutional issue that prevents states 165 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 1: from doing what all of these countries are saying should 166 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 1: be done. Get out of here with that, you know, 167 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 1: I want to get just to make a point real quickly, 168 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: Jonathan Turley and forty eight Michael then will move on 169 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 1: to what I think is fantastic analysis. Parental rights is 170 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 1: often not discussed it. 171 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 7: It's viewed as sort of the weaker of the panoply 172 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 7: of rights that we supposedly hold. But many parents are 173 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 7: objecting that their children can't even get an aspirin in 174 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 7: school without their consent, but they can get so much 175 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 7: else that might change their identity and set them on 176 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 7: a path that they want to be part of that 177 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 7: decision making. 178 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:53,839 Speaker 1: They want to play a role. They know that child 179 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,199 Speaker 1: better than anyone. Yeah, if you've ever been in that situation, 180 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 1: I have. I think you have two, Joe, I think 181 00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:59,440 Speaker 1: you've talked about over the years where yeah, give my 182 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: kid they got a horrible headache, they can't see straight, 183 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: give them a freaking ibu. Profen, Well, we can't unless 184 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 1: you come down here.

The progressive 188 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 1: activists claim principles. They don't hold those principles. They know 189 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: ideally Conservatives operate based on principle. Progressive activists operate merely 190 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 1: on the lust for victory. They don't hold keeping your 191 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 1: kids safe as a principle. They pretend to, except when 192 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,959 Speaker 1: it serves them.

So we got that thing Joe mentioned wrapping 217 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,079 Speaker 1: up the trans Supreme Court thing, and also that CEO 218 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 1: for United Healthcare. There's a lot of people happy he 219 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 1: got gunned down, which is sick, so stay tuned for that. 220 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 10: The US Supreme Court appears ready to allow Tennessee's ban 221 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 10: on transgender healthcare for children. Tennessee's law bans puberty blockers 222 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:14,079 Speaker 10: and hormone therapy for transgender miners and imposes civil penalties 223 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 10: against physicians who violate the law. 224 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 1: The tapster are there. So here's the deal. The people 225 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 1: challenging the Tennessee law that the Supreme Court Court heard 226 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:30,559 Speaker 1: oral arguments on yesterday banning cruel experiments on confused adolescents 227 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: in the name of radical gender ideology, are claiming the 228 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 1: fourteenth Amendment, which demands equal treatment under the law, is 229 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:41,439 Speaker 1: at stake here that if a boy can get testosterone 230 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: for some legitimate medical problem, then a girl must be 231 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 1: able to get testosterone for gender bending reasons or else 232 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,320 Speaker 1: it's a violation of the fourteenth Amendment, which is a 233 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: bizarre and wildly incorrect interpretation. And here's why the Fourteenth Amendment, 234 00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:04,199 Speaker 1: and indeed, the the fourteenth Amendment says nothing about sex discrimination. 235 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:08,680 Speaker 1: Probably says nothing about women with penises. No, no, I 236 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 1: never said it. Never come across that in the Federalist papers. Yeah, 237 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 1: And they make the point in the National Review that 238 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 1: the people who are behind the fourteenth Amendment would be 239 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 1: baffled by the claim that they were creating a constitutional 240 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 1: right for confused children to take powerful drugs that irreversibly 241 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: change their genitals. But anyway, here's the problem. The fourteenth 242 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: Amendment was all about race. There is a presumption in law, 243 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 1: as there should be, that it bars irrational distinctions on 244 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: the basis of race, because there's a presumption that most, 245 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 1: if not well most, discrimination based on race is irrational. 246 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 1: I don't like black people, they shouldn't be married to 247 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: white people. Whatever. That's just not rational. Now should black 248 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 1: people have more testing for sickle cell anemia? That's not irrational. 249 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: It's a very rare but strong example of a rational 250 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: distinction on race. Sex is different and has a different 251 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: level of scrutiny differences in sex because there has long 252 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 1: been recognized, and by long I mean like since the 253 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 1: dawn of man, that there are differences, rational differences between 254 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 1: men and women, which is why forever we have had 255 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: men's bathrooms and women's bathrooms, and locker rooms and sports 256 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 1: in a thousand other examples having to do with medical 257 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 1: care and society and the rest of them, different level 258 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 1: of scrutiny. Completely, sex differences are real, and by the way, 259 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 1: it's worth mentioning humanity wouldn't exist without those differences, and 260 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 1: what fun it is to combine those two differences and 261 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: make a baby or at least practice the act now exactly. 262 00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 1: So the specific question before the court in the Scrima 263 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 1: case is the Tennessee case, is whether the level of 264 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 1: scrutiny that's applied to racial stuff should be applied to 265 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 1: sex stuff. In other words, the lawyers for the radical 266 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 1: gender theory folks are saying that there's no there's practically 267 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 1: no rational differences between men and women. It's all imagined. 268 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 1: It goes to the part of radical gender theory exactly. 269 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: It's a social construct. The Biden administration, Puke and the 270 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 1: individual challenges the Tennessee law argue that it is sex 271 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 1: discrimination to restrict gender transition treatments but not block it 272 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 1: for little boys who need it. Whatever. So it's the 273 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 1: level of scrutiny question. I won't get too far into 274 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 1: legal weeds, but it asked the question backwards. As this 275 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: writer puts it, the equal protection question always comes down 276 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 1: to whether a distinction is rational. And the distinctions between 277 00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: men and women are one hundred percent rational. I can 278 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 1: see we're kind of running out of time. Even the 279 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:11,399 Speaker 1: Solicitor General conceded that Tennessee could ban a drug that 280 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 1: was useful only in sex transitioning, because then the state 281 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 1: is regulating the treatment, not its purpose, and they engage 282 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,879 Speaker 1: in a wild and wooly semantic argument that just doesn't 283 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 1: hold any water and again rests on the idea that 284 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: there's no rational difference between men and women, which is 285 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 1: one of the most idiotic philosophies ever offered to humankind, 286 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,439 Speaker 1: and the fact that some over educated white people have 287 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 1: fallen for this mostly and other people too. It's just 288 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:41,919 Speaker 1: it's a measure of how ideology can sweep away intelligence. 289 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 1: So go get them, Supreme Court. No way this challenge 290 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,399 Speaker 1: that the lost hands and God willing someday that the 291 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: twenty six states that banned this crap will turn into 292 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 1: fifty lots of stuff to talk about the killing of 293 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,719 Speaker 1: the United Healthcare CEO, which has brought out the worst 294 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 1: in some people. Do you see Hunter Biden at the 295 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 1: Arby's and Ventura yesterday, He looked pretty happy. You talk 296 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:08,119 Speaker 1: about a guy who's had a lot of weight lifted 297 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:11,679 Speaker 1: off his shoulders. He is happy at the Arby's. Everything's 298 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 1: coming up, Hunter, Armstrong and Getty. 299 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 11: You have a killer who is trying to send a message. 300 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,920 Speaker 11: The question is what does the message really mean? What 301 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 11: you can glean from it? If the target was carefully 302 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 11: selected the head of a major healthcare insurance entity. Is 303 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 11: is it directed at United Healthcare? Is it directed at 304 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 11: that CEO? Or is this a killer who is targeting 305 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 11: the insurance industry, which has caused everybody from hospital executives 306 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 11: to insurance providers yesterday to start doubling and tripling the 307 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 11: security around their top people. 308 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:55,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's interesting. That's what I thought yesterday, is that 309 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 1: this is going to be a lot about least the 310 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 1: speculation is going to be a lot about to have 311 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 1: something to do with health care and insurance in this country, 312 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 1: and the way a lot of people look at it 313 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 1: and get angry about it and all that sort of stuff. 314 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,399 Speaker 1: That was John Miller on CNN. Here's a former FBI 315 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 1: director McCabe on CNN talking about it. 316 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 12: The details and nuances of this attack are extraordinary. They 317 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 12: do betray an astounding level of pre planning of organization, 318 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,919 Speaker 12: and it should also say cool headedness, and all of 319 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:28,719 Speaker 12: those things together would point towards a very competent assassin 320 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:31,879 Speaker 12: and potentially even someone who does this for hire. 321 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to eavesdrop on 322 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:39,159 Speaker 1: Carter page right and that's something that he did, all 323 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 1: the things he did, and he's the go to on 324 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 1: CNN for expertise, all those intelligence guys, Brennan and that 325 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 1: whole cabal. Sorry to distract back to you, So the 326 00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 1: CEO of United Healthcare gets murdered, assassinated in cold blood. 327 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 1: I've heard back and forth with experts and know a 328 00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 1: lot more about this than me. On clearly a professional 329 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: assass and this, this, this, and then clearly not because 330 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,440 Speaker 1: of this, this and this, like going to the Starbucks 331 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 1: and standing in line for five minutes for your latte 332 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,679 Speaker 1: and being on camera right before you go and shoot 333 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:17,679 Speaker 1: the guy, for instance, leaving a phone behind right. Yeah. 334 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 1: And I came across a Twitter thread of a firearms 335 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:24,160 Speaker 1: expert debunking half a dozen things he saw catching fire online. 336 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 1: This is clearly that and he said, no, it's not. Yeah, 337 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: so yeah, we crap. We always say the first twenty 338 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:33,919 Speaker 1: four hours, don't believe anything you hear it. It might 339 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 1: turn out to be completely different, and it might be 340 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 1: that way for a couple of days here. But some 341 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 1: interesting stuff around here around this. For instance, the first 342 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 1: story I heard yesterday afternoon was about how he was 343 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 1: being investigated for some stock trading where he looks like 344 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: he got some inside information, dumped a bunch of stock, 345 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: like millions of dollars involved in this, dumped a bunch 346 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 1: of stock right before some announcement was going to be made, 347 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 1: and it was investigated for that. You could have friends 348 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:05,159 Speaker 1: you're involved with who they're afraid you're gonna flip and 349 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:11,120 Speaker 1: tell you know, so obviously that's a possibility. You need 350 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 1: better friends then you start doing crimes like that and colleagues. Yeah, 351 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 1: he and his wife have been living separate for a year. Okay, 352 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,239 Speaker 1: anytime you got that going on, there's probably you know, 353 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 1: jealous lovers, anger, divorce, child, custody. Who knows what sure 354 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: could be. Yeah, that's a possibility. And then he runs 355 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:37,119 Speaker 1: United Healthcare, giant giant insurance company in America, and a 356 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 1: lot of people get pretty worked up about when insurance 357 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,399 Speaker 1: turns them down for this or that. A lot of 358 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 1: people do, or if somebody they care about deeply dies 359 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,640 Speaker 1: because they couldn't get the paperwork to go through. Yeah, 360 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: there could be violent passions for a lot of different 361 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 1: reasons in this case. And then if it turns out 362 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: that there were words written on the bullets, that's pretty interesting. 363 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:04,360 Speaker 1: I'd say, that's you. That's silly Agatha Christie stuff. Yeah, 364 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 1: that doesn't happen in real life. Yeah, it's interesting. So 365 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:09,200 Speaker 1: he shoots a guy in cold blood and he's wearing 366 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: that jacket. You've probably seen the pictures of your end 367 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:12,400 Speaker 1: of this at all, and you can't see his face, 368 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 1: and he just walks down the street and heads towards 369 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,159 Speaker 1: Central Park and disappears, and he's on the loose in 370 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,639 Speaker 1: Manhattan somewhere. Or if he's like an actual professional assassin, 371 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,680 Speaker 1: he you know, he's on a plane to Mexico by 372 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 1: the end of the day. Who would be paying for that? 373 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: I don't know, But I mean, if you start doing 374 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 1: stock weirdness at to the tunes of millions of dollars, 375 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: you're talking about wealthy people being involved, and then anything 376 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 1: is possible. This stuff bothered me a lot, though. So 377 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 1: here's a professor. His name is Zenkis, Professor Zenkis at 378 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:49,360 Speaker 1: Columbia University. Here's his tweet yesterday after this happened. Today, 379 00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,560 Speaker 1: we mourn the death of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson 380 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 1: gunned down. Oh wait, I'm sorry. Today we mourn the 381 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 1: deaths of sixty eight thousand Americans who needlessly die each 382 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 1: year so that in insurance company exects like Brian Thompson 383 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 1: can become multimillionaires. That's from a Columbia professor. How do 384 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 1: you like that, boy? Columbia is just teeming with nut jobs. 385 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,920 Speaker 1: I mean, there's a case to be made on that topic, sure, 386 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,960 Speaker 1: but what convinces you, well, you know what? It's again? 387 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 1: A tangent came across another example of this sort of thing, 388 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 1: and this guy was writing an editorial that was really 389 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: good about how university presidents have to not be so 390 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: bubbled and have to understand, you know, how their conservative 391 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 1: students feel. His purpose was really good, but his words 392 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 1: revealed the extent to which academics live in this artificial 393 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,199 Speaker 1: little world that the rest of us can't even dream of. 394 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 1: It's like Riven Dell on the Lord of the Rings movies. 395 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: They've got no competition, there's no economic ups and downs. 396 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: They've got tenure. What the hell is tenure. I've spent 397 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 1: every day my career thinking this as the last day anyway. 398 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 1: So yeah, so this guy has such a bizarro, unreal 399 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: distance he thinks this is a good idea. Barry Weiss's 400 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 1: response to that, the Great Barry Weiss was this is 401 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 1: a Columbia professor and trauma expert. That's one of his things. 402 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 1: People have lost their minds. I don't know who this 403 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:16,440 Speaker 1: guy is. He's an activist on the left and rights 404 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 1: for a bunch of publications I've never heard of. So 405 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 1: whether he's a big dealer or not, I don't know. 406 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 1: But here was his tweet. The gunman is at large. 407 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 1: So if you see anything, no U efing didn't protect 408 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,280 Speaker 1: this person, also do more. That's a hero. That's my 409 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: efing hero right there. Wow, Wow, you are a sick 410 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:41,160 Speaker 1: f friend another prominently placed lefty And this is absolute 411 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 1: nut picking. I mean it's easy to pick up, pick 412 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 1: out crazy people on the right and crazy people on 413 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: the left and then try to make a narrative like 414 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,359 Speaker 1: they all believe. Yeah, but there are people lunatic right 415 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 1: when conservative professors for me, I'll give you all day. Yeah, 416 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:59,120 Speaker 1: well that's an excellent point. Another person that I don't 417 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,399 Speaker 1: know who they were. But why wouldn't we just be 418 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 1: sending emails to all the other CEOs of the healthcare 419 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 1: companies saying you're on the list too. That sort of 420 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,960 Speaker 1: thing so yeah, because we all know cold blooded murder 421 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 1: in the streets is the way to affect positive policy 422 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:18,879 Speaker 1: changes in a civilization. People, seriously, you know there's about 423 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 1: twenty Well, i'll just go domestically, there's about fifteen percent 424 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,639 Speaker 1: of the population of this great country that I have 425 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:32,359 Speaker 1: written off. They're ugly, they're idiots, they're bigots, whatever, and 426 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 1: I accept their existence and I try not to get 427 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:36,760 Speaker 1: stirred up at them because I don't want them to 428 00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 1: have that power over me. But holy cow, some people 429 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:43,200 Speaker 1: are twisted. I do have a little bit of foma 430 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 1: switching gears. Now, do you have more on the killing? 431 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:50,200 Speaker 1: Not really. I wish the inspector's the best of luck 432 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 1: in and covering the clues, and you're bringing the scum 433 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: back to justice. You want to make a quick guess, 434 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 1: I'm still willing to go with nutjob. But random nut job, 435 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 1: I'll give you fifty to one against Really, I think 436 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,679 Speaker 1: he probably has some sort of healthcare story, but he's 437 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 1: also a nutjob. Oh well, yeah, well yeah, As I 438 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 1: was making the point, anybody thinks that murder in the 439 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 1: streets is the way to affect some sort of positive 440 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 1: change is by definition of nutjob so yeah, unfair, unfair 441 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:23,199 Speaker 1: on my part. I got some serious foma going on, 442 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 1: fear of missing out, not specifically around bitcoin, although that's 443 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 1: some of it, the fact that it's up forty percent 444 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 1: such election day and I don't have any bitcoin, and 445 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:34,159 Speaker 1: I've never got into it.

I could have jumped in, and I didn't. 452 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 1: That's where foma comes from. Of course, if you remember 453 00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 1: the dot com era, it had a kind of hilarious ending. 454 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:05,439 Speaker 1: There were whole well I never got involved in that 455 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:07,919 Speaker 1: one either, So I didn't my entire fortune in dogfood 456 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:11,200 Speaker 1: dot com And now you're laughing, you bastard.

So but uh, you 458 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 1: know a whole bunch of things that weren't actually ever 459 00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:19,920 Speaker 1: gonna be successful that became billion dollar companies then disappeared overnight, 460 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:24,639 Speaker 1: will happen again? Right? Did I talk about the my 461 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:28,159 Speaker 1: Asian stock tip lift driver on the air or did 462 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 1: that happen during vacation. That might happen during vacation. Yeah, 463 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:33,239 Speaker 1: I think so. Yeah, I didn't. I haven't heard of this. 464 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 1: So I got a flat tire in my Tesla, which 465 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 1: was highly annoying, And it's like the sixth one I've had. 466 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: Because electric cars are so heavy that they wear out 467 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,640 Speaker 1: tires really really fast. That's another thing that you don't 468 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 1: hear about a lot from the people pushing like Kevin 469 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:52,159 Speaker 1: or newsome asn't mentioned that. But and because I have 470 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 1: a very specific tire and very specific car, they were 471 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:55,879 Speaker 1: gonna have my car for like four days because of 472 00:27:55,880 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 1: a flat tire. That's insane. Any I have two which 473 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 1: I drive. I've had zero flat tires, and if I 474 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 1: had one, I would change it in five minutes. Anyway, 475 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 1: this is not the you know what this is. I 476 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 1: don't care the way you gotta do. You got to 477 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 1: pile up all the Tesla tires that have gone flat 478 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 1: in your backyard, set them ablaze and have a protest 479 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 1: tire fire. Oh, that would get attention, It would get 480 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 1: coverage worldwide. It would, it actually would, And I'd just 481 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:26,400 Speaker 1: keep mentioning Armstrong and Getty. So I have to take 482 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,159 Speaker 1: a lift to go pick up my car after the 483 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,719 Speaker 1: because I got a rental car. Anyway, I'm right with 484 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 1: this guy. He's got a thick Asian accent that I 485 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 1: wish I could do because it makes the story more entertaining. 486 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 1: But I would get canceled for it. But he was 487 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 1: He's an older guy. First thing he asked me when 488 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 1: I get in. He said, uh, car broke down And 489 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 1: I said, oh, I got close to doing an accent there. 490 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,920 Speaker 1: Don't do it, Jack, And I said, nah, I got 491 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: a flat tire in my Tesla. He was driving a 492 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: Tesla and he said, oh, yeah, they get a lot 493 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 1: of flat tires. He said, Tesla is a good stock. 494 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 1: Though you have any stocks? Is the lift driver? I 495 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 1: said yeah, I got quite a fee. He said, what 496 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 1: are you mostly invested in? I said, I got a guy. 497 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 1: I'm invested in a lot of stuff. I don't really pay 498 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: attention that clothes. He said, ah, yeah, pay attention. I 499 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 1: bought Tesla stock a long time ago. I got about 500 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 1: nine hundred thousand dollars worth of Tesla stock. I bought 501 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 1: it early and everything I said, I said, wow, good 502 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 1: for you. I said, my stock guy like ten years 503 00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 1: ago told me it was going to go down, and 504 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 1: it was a bad idea. So I didn't get into Tesla, 505 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 1: similar to why I didn't get into bitcoin in video 506 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 1: and a whole bunch of other stuff. But but he 507 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 1: just kept going. He said, Oh, you got to pay attention. 508 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 1: He said, I got Tesla and I got Nvidia. He said, 509 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 1: I got in on that early, so I'm doing it. 510 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 1: I said, I said, so, do you drive a Lyft 511 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 1: for fun? He said, yeah, I drive it fun. I 512 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 1: like to talk to people. I mostly I like to 513 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 1: talk about stocks. And I said, well, I bought fifty 514 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,320 Speaker 1: thousand bucks worth of applestock in nineteen ninety two. I 515 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 1: now have seventy million dollars. But what'd you say, A 516 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: right turn ahead? I said, I gathered that, or I 517 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 1: thought I gathered that. Do you like to talk about stock? 518 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:54,959 Speaker 1: Since it was the first thing he asked me when 519 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 1: I got in the car, and he talked about the 520 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 1: entire drive and I said, my dad and he was 521 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: an older guy, like retired, and uh, I said, you 522 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: and my dad would get along, I said, because my 523 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:06,960 Speaker 1: dad does that. All all he does is like watch 524 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 1: the stock stuff all day long and buy and sell 525 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 1: and that's just his life is following this stuff. And 526 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 1: he said, oh yeah, yeah, that's what I do all 527 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 1: day long. Is the only thing I read, the only 528 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 1: news I follow. And anyway, we got on the Tesla 529 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 1: and he said, I hate the cyber truck and I said, well, 530 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:24,000 Speaker 1: that's interesting. You got all the Tesla sacking. Looks like 531 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 1: a three year old drew it. You gave a three 532 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 1: year old a crayon, that's what they draw. Wow, it 533 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 1: does have rather simple lines. I thought that was pretty 534 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 1: I thought that was hilarious. He was a he was 535 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 1: He was like, he was a simple guy who you know, 536 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: decided to pay attention to the winds and has made 537 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:49,520 Speaker 1: a whole bunch of money that way. And I feel 538 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 1: like I'm not doing that and should spend more time 539 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 1: doing that, because the AI thing has exploded and a 540 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 1: whole bunch of stuff clearly was going to be hot, 541 00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: and it has been, whether it's investing or betting on politics, 542 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 1: which I've talked about. I have my New Year's resolution already. 543 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 1: I've got twenty six days of relaxing. Now I've got 544 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 1: it for twenty twenty five. I'm going to be greedier. Well, yeah, 545 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 1: if it's greed is good, as was famously said in 546 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 1: the movie of Wall Street. You know, if that drives 547 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 1: you to pay there, why not? You know what else 548 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 1: is good? Not spending more than you make. France is 549 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 1: falling apart as predicted, and it is absolutely a big 550 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 1: French canary in a coal mine that we'd better pay 551 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:36,520 Speaker 1: attention to in this country or we will follow a 552 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 1: similar path. Yeah, that's what the Doge project is about. 553 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:44,320 Speaker 1: Lepath de doom. I do want to talk about Hunter 554 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 1: at Arby's, as they said, that's a good story, Hunter Biden, 555 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden at Arby's yesterday. Yes, if you were in 556 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 1: mature did you see Hunter Biden at the Arby's Man, 557 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:53,640 Speaker 1: did he have a big smile on his face? And 558 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: why wouldn't he? Lots of stuff on the way stay here? 559 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:03,920 Speaker 13: Political drama overseas yesterday when the president of South Korea 560 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 13: declared surprise martial law, that's actually really impressive. You know 561 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,400 Speaker 13: how hard it is to throw a surprise martial law. 562 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 13: You have to get the entire military to hide behind 563 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 13: the couch and then. 564 00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 1: Be quiet at the same time, turn off the tank, 565 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 1: turn off the tank. That is an amazing story. And 566 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:28,520 Speaker 1: the fact that it came and got as crazy as 567 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 1: it did but didn't go all the way and then 568 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 1: got settled down in the you know, multi hour period 569 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 1: is really something. Yeah, that the institutions of South Korea 570 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 1: held in the face of that challenge is is great. 571 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 1: It's cool, and this is why I'm not worried about 572 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 1: there being warfare in the streets and civil war, Trump 573 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 1: becoming Hitler or any of that crap. Our constitution and 574 00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 1: our systems are way way stronger and more resilient than 575 00:32:55,920 --> 00:33:02,200 Speaker 1: South Korea is. So anyway, coming up, how does that 576 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 1: cup of coffee in the morning actually do what it 577 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 1: does physiologically psychologically. I came across like a blow by 578 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 1: blow your first zip and if you're a fiene addict 579 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 1: like us, it's pretty interesting, kind of fun. I was 580 00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 1: hoping to get to it this segment, but we jabbered 581 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 1: on so much last segment. This one's going to be 582 00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 1: kind of short. I thought this was notable Eli Lilly's 583 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 1: zep Bound, which still sounds like a coming of age 584 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 1: movie set in the seventies to me, not a drug. 585 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,720 Speaker 1: It beat with GOV in the first head to head 586 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 1: study pretty solidly. Among your semi glue tide superpower weight 587 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 1: loss drugs that are so popular these days, people who 588 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:52,720 Speaker 1: took the zep bound lost seventeen pounds more on average 589 00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 1: after seventy two weeks of treatment. Seventy two weeks. That's 590 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 1: a good long trial than those that were given wigov. 591 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 1: We're missing one of them. What's the name? The name 592 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 1: I hear more often? Right? 593 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:03,920 Speaker 7: Uh? 594 00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:07,840 Speaker 1: Godzilla? No, what's the one? You know, Michael? Do you 595 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 1: hear it all the time? Uh? Oh, zempic? Yeah, yeah, right, oh, 596 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 1: zemp that's the one that gets all the talk like 597 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,760 Speaker 1: it's almost the generic term for these weight loss drugs 598 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:23,839 Speaker 1: drugs is ozempic, but the wi gob is the best. Yeah. 599 00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:26,759 Speaker 1: I'm trying to see if they uh why did they 600 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:31,920 Speaker 1: not do o zempic. It does not say have you 601 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,279 Speaker 1: have you looked into this at all or considered it all. 602 00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:36,400 Speaker 1: I haven't considered it, so I haven't been paying that 603 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:40,439 Speaker 1: much attention, not not seriously, because you know, any weight 604 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:43,720 Speaker 1: related problems I have are are fine at this point. 605 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 1: Blood pressure is really the only one I think much about. Well, 606 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 1: you know, I take a horse pill every day and 607 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:53,480 Speaker 1: that's probably not ideal, but my mine any weight situations 608 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,719 Speaker 1: I have would be how about I try not eating 609 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 1: all the crap I eat for a while, because you 610 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:01,080 Speaker 1: could start there, have a good place to start. Anyway, 611 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 1: people took zep bound lost twenty percent of their body 612 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:08,920 Speaker 1: weight on average body weight fourteen percent for we go 613 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 1: V patients. The question though, as we all know, what 614 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:16,839 Speaker 1: is the number one question for weight loss? Number one? 615 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 1: With a bullet? Can you keep it off? Yeah? Does 616 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:23,799 Speaker 1: it stay off? Right? Does it? Or do we not know? 617 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:26,440 Speaker 1: It hasn't been around long enough. Yes, it does if 618 00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:29,719 Speaker 1: you do the right things. Well that's are you going 619 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 1: to do the right thing? No, neither's anybody else? All right, 620 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:37,960 Speaker 1: all right, right, Yeah, it's an ongoing battle. I've known 621 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,520 Speaker 1: people who have kept it off brilliantly, and plenty you 622 00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 1: have not anybody who's lost weight knows that they were 623 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 1: in a period of time where they were just so 624 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:51,840 Speaker 1: disciplined without ever cheating, and just on the beam. And 625 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 1: then when you got off the beam, you gained weight 626 00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:57,160 Speaker 1: and you never quite could get back on the beam again, 627 00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 1: not to the same level anyway. Thanksgiving parade balloon and 628 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:04,960 Speaker 1: I speak for myself here.
