WEBVTT - Strapping Bombs To Alpacas 0:00:01.880 --> 0:00:06.200 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George 0:00:06.240 --> 0:00:10.879 Washington Broadcast Center. Jack Armstrong is Joe Getty Armstrong and 0:00:11.039 --> 0:00:25.319 Jetty and now he Armstrong and Yetty Iran will not 0:00:25.760 --> 0:00:27.360 have a nuclear weapon. 0:00:28.560 --> 0:00:32.360 It's a bold and dangerous mission, a gift to the world, 0:00:33.360 --> 0:00:38.720 historic courtesy of a bold and historic president. 0:00:39.600 --> 0:00:42.120 I do think it is a gift to the world, 0:00:42.200 --> 0:00:44.920 and it's bold and historic, and the world ain't feeling 0:00:44.960 --> 0:00:50.320 it that way though, no at all. Anyway. That's Pete 0:00:50.360 --> 0:00:52.640 Hegzet's Secretary of War a little earlier today. 0:00:52.640 --> 0:00:54.840 He goes on to say, not only is. 0:00:54.880 --> 0:00:59.080 The blockade growing, in fact, a second aircraft carrier will 0:00:59.160 --> 0:01:02.680 join the blockade in just a few days, but this 0:01:02.840 --> 0:01:07.880 growing blockade is also gone global. Just this week, we 0:01:08.000 --> 0:01:11.960 seized two Iranian dark fleet ships in the Indo Pacific 0:01:12.000 --> 0:01:16.200 region that had left Iranian ports before the blockade went 0:01:16.240 --> 0:01:19.279 into effect. They thought they'd made it out just in time. 0:01:20.040 --> 0:01:20.480 They did not. 0:01:21.440 --> 0:01:25.720 We seized their sanctioned ships, and we will seize more. 0:01:25.840 --> 0:01:29.320 The blockade has gone global. Wherever there's an Iranian ship 0:01:29.400 --> 0:01:31.800 on the seas in the world, we're gonna grab it. 0:01:32.680 --> 0:01:36.839 Yeah, I hadn't been aware of this, But the Iranian 0:01:36.880 --> 0:01:40.520 ships are all like trying to run the blockade, because 0:01:40.520 --> 0:01:42.920 we're not blasting them out of existence. We just say 0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:45.800 it's like getting a speeding ticket. Essentially pull them over 0:01:45.840 --> 0:01:47.680 and say hey, you got to go back to port. 0:01:47.960 --> 0:01:49.800 And so there's very little risk for them, and so 0:01:49.840 --> 0:01:53.400 they go between our ships. Then they essentially they like 0:01:53.480 --> 0:01:56.760 turn off their transponders and turn off their headlights and 0:01:56.840 --> 0:01:59.400 like kill their cell phone and just think. 0:01:59.600 --> 0:02:01.200 Let's see how far we can make it. 0:02:01.600 --> 0:02:03.920 Well, you know, we've got global satellite imagery, so we 0:02:04.000 --> 0:02:08.000 say that ship right there is that got a transponder 0:02:08.040 --> 0:02:09.880 on up, I'll bet it's the ghost Fleet, and we 0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:13.239 bust them. Happens every day now, lots and lots of times. 0:02:14.639 --> 0:02:16.600 So we'll probably play some Trump a little bit later. 0:02:16.639 --> 0:02:18.919 He had a pretty contentious, as he usually does, press 0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:22.800 conference yesterday about the endless War and price of gas 0:02:22.800 --> 0:02:26.480 and this and that. But Pete Hegzeth addressed the whole 0:02:27.360 --> 0:02:31.680 endless War's campaign thingy that comes up a lot. 0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:35.440 The real endless war is the war that Iron has 0:02:35.480 --> 0:02:39.600 waged on us for forty seven years. President Trump is 0:02:39.639 --> 0:02:43.520 the only president with the guts and moral clarity to finally. 0:02:43.240 --> 0:02:47.000 Do something about it. I see it every day behind 0:02:47.080 --> 0:02:47.760 closed doors. 0:02:47.919 --> 0:02:52.600 President Trump's fortitude is unshakable and his mission is crystal clear. 0:02:53.560 --> 0:02:57.560 President Trump said it again yesterday. We have all the 0:02:57.680 --> 0:02:58.919 time in the world. 0:02:59.280 --> 0:03:02.240 I wish he didn't feel the need to talk about 0:03:02.240 --> 0:03:04.560 how great Trump is when he's giving me update on 0:03:04.600 --> 0:03:05.040 the wars. 0:03:06.160 --> 0:03:08.880 I get that if you're in Trump's cabinet or you 0:03:08.919 --> 0:03:12.000 know whatever, you've got to just just praise him, just 0:03:12.840 --> 0:03:15.640 lap his boots up and down every single day. 0:03:15.720 --> 0:03:16.919 I realize that's part of the deal. 0:03:17.120 --> 0:03:19.920 But it's humiliating and ridiculous, and we're gonna talk to 0:03:19.960 --> 0:03:21.640 my clients to kick off next hour. 0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:24.200 It makes it about Trump all. 0:03:24.040 --> 0:03:26.920 The time, right, which is not good. But I thought 0:03:26.919 --> 0:03:28.799 his original point was a good one. 0:03:28.840 --> 0:03:29.000 Though. 0:03:29.160 --> 0:03:31.840 You talk about endless wars. Iran has been waging a 0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:37.440 half century war on us, not like some sort of 0:03:37.840 --> 0:03:42.800 metaphorical paper you know what war, and of that economic 0:03:42.920 --> 0:03:48.440 no killing our soldiers' war and a constantly attacking our 0:03:48.520 --> 0:03:54.400 allies forming regional armies. Right now, there are Iranian backed 0:03:54.440 --> 0:03:55.640 milicious in Iraq. 0:03:55.760 --> 0:03:56.880 That's the next front of the war. 0:03:57.000 --> 0:04:01.040 Iraq is this thing inevitably spreads, and we're doing all 0:04:01.080 --> 0:04:03.200 sorts of financial things to deny. 0:04:02.920 --> 0:04:03.600 Them cash too. 0:04:03.640 --> 0:04:09.080 But they have vicious Islamist proxies all over the region 0:04:09.240 --> 0:04:11.440 that they used to attack us and our allies and 0:04:11.480 --> 0:04:12.600 have for half a century. 0:04:13.280 --> 0:04:16.360 So we were discussing a little last hour of why 0:04:16.440 --> 0:04:19.479 people don't care about this word, don't take it seriously, 0:04:19.720 --> 0:04:22.240 or the media doesn't take it seriously, and it occurred 0:04:22.240 --> 0:04:25.520 to me one reason might be and it's a question. 0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:29.520 They asked Donald Trump yesterday, would you use a nuclear weapon? 0:04:29.520 --> 0:04:31.840 Answer on you posted on try social. 0:04:31.640 --> 0:04:34.080 No, we don't need this. Why do I need it? 0:04:34.360 --> 0:04:36.560 Why would a stupid question like that be asked? Do 0:04:36.640 --> 0:04:38.360 you know why would I? Why would I use a 0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:39.200 nuclear weapon? 0:04:39.600 --> 0:04:44.320 We've totally, in a very conventional way decimated them without it. 0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:47.279 Now I would use a nuclear weapon. Should never be 0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:48.800 allowed to be used by anybody. 0:04:49.240 --> 0:04:51.240 I don't know where that question came from, would you 0:04:51.320 --> 0:04:53.520 use a nuke? But Trump there at the end saying 0:04:53.520 --> 0:04:55.640 a nuclear weapon should never be used by anyway. 0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:56.760 I think that might. 0:04:56.600 --> 0:05:00.600 Be part of Because we were going with the we 0:05:01.000 --> 0:05:06.400 are so comfortable and economically powerful, and our standard of 0:05:06.400 --> 0:05:10.600 living is so high for the average person that we 0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:14.839 just we can't even let minor any sort of problem 0:05:14.880 --> 0:05:17.679 around the world enter our heads. We just think everything 0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:20.200 will be like this forever and das is more expensive. 0:05:20.320 --> 0:05:22.240 Uh so we complain about that. 0:05:22.400 --> 0:05:26.240 We can't imagine there being giant, you know, disruptions in 0:05:26.279 --> 0:05:29.480 the world, and one of those would be Iran having 0:05:29.480 --> 0:05:32.280 a nuclear weapon. Nuclear weapons have only been around for 0:05:32.320 --> 0:05:36.720 what eighty years, and luckily, thank god, they haven't been 0:05:36.839 --> 0:05:39.480 used since the end of World War Two, but that 0:05:39.520 --> 0:05:42.520 could all change in the blink of an eye if 0:05:42.560 --> 0:05:45.159 some nut jobs like the Mulla's got a nuclear weapon. 0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:49.640 I just don't think the average person at all appreciates that. 0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:52.000 Pete Heggsath's saying we're doing a favor to the world 0:05:52.320 --> 0:05:55.320 if we stop and I think we are stop those 0:05:55.880 --> 0:06:04.680 crazy nihilists from having an age bos that is unbelievable 0:06:04.720 --> 0:06:06.279 as a turn of history. But I don't think the 0:06:06.279 --> 0:06:07.279 average person gets that. 0:06:07.839 --> 0:06:11.320 And a regime that is fundamentally different than say in 0:06:11.440 --> 0:06:16.440 North Korea. North Korea doesn't have a religion based, devout 0:06:16.520 --> 0:06:18.120 expansionist philosophy. 0:06:18.480 --> 0:06:21.240 Please, they just want to keep their weird ass. 0:06:21.800 --> 0:06:25.160 The Kims are the only people with money regime going well. 0:06:25.160 --> 0:06:27.599 Thank God, that was holy correct. Thank God. 0:06:27.640 --> 0:06:31.400 It's true so far with North Korea, but we've vowed 0:06:31.480 --> 0:06:34.719 they would never get a nuclear weapon over and over again, 0:06:34.760 --> 0:06:39.120 but we'ren't really willing to actually do economics stronger economic sanctions, 0:06:39.160 --> 0:06:42.640 which never ever work. Drives me nuts that people talk 0:06:42.680 --> 0:06:46.600 about them all the time, So I think that might 0:06:46.640 --> 0:06:48.760 be the crux of the whole thing. People can't imagine 0:06:48.760 --> 0:06:53.000 that anyone would actually use a nuclear weapon, right because 0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:55.279 it's just it hasn't happened. 0:06:55.880 --> 0:06:58.119 Yeah, And I normally I don't like it when Trump presents, 0:06:58.760 --> 0:07:00.880 so I would ask that's just a big question. It 0:07:00.880 --> 0:07:04.280 makes him seem like it's just he's down there, he's 0:07:04.480 --> 0:07:05.520 lowering himself. 0:07:05.640 --> 0:07:08.000 But that was a fairly stupid question one. 0:07:07.920 --> 0:07:10.480 Of our mister President, what about kama Kazi pilots? Are 0:07:10.480 --> 0:07:13.960 you willing to use kamakazi pilots? What about strapping bombs 0:07:14.000 --> 0:07:16.360 to al pacas and sending them into Iran? 0:07:17.120 --> 0:07:20.320 What are you talking about? Nobody's talking about nuking anybody. 0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:23.520 We're talking about prevention, preventing nukes, you twit. 0:07:24.400 --> 0:07:25.920 One of the reasons nukes are on my mind is 0:07:25.960 --> 0:07:29.800 I'm rereading Ike's bluff, which is a fantastic book if 0:07:29.840 --> 0:07:32.320 you're into that sort of thing. But it's about the 0:07:33.080 --> 0:07:37.000 uh early part of the Eisenhower administration that I'm in 0:07:37.080 --> 0:07:41.280 right now. And Russia has just detonated their first h bomb, 0:07:41.360 --> 0:07:43.440 letting the world know that they've got it, and now 0:07:43.480 --> 0:07:47.120 there's the bomb race between US and Russia. But it 0:07:47.160 --> 0:07:49.640 was all brand new, and it had been so recently 0:07:49.840 --> 0:07:52.000 that we had used nuclear weapons, and they were new 0:07:52.000 --> 0:07:52.480 on the seed. 0:07:52.880 --> 0:07:53.760 It was still. 0:07:53.520 --> 0:07:56.920 Treated as just like a really powerful weapon, like it 0:07:57.000 --> 0:07:59.760 was on the table to use nukes. And Ike was 0:07:59.760 --> 0:08:03.480 having the conversations of and he ended up being against this, 0:08:03.560 --> 0:08:06.440 but they were having a conversation of, well, should we 0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:10.840 hit Russia the Soviet Union with nukes while we still 0:08:10.880 --> 0:08:14.920 have the edge over them, so that they don't catch 0:08:15.040 --> 0:08:20.760 up with us, like preemptively nuking Moscow because it's an 0:08:20.840 --> 0:08:24.080 arms race and this is the latest hot weapon. And 0:08:24.600 --> 0:08:29.720 over time it has become unthinkable that when anybody would 0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:32.440 use a nuclear weapon, but it's totally in our imaginations 0:08:32.480 --> 0:08:36.040 that it's unthinkable. It could be incredibly thinkable if the 0:08:36.080 --> 0:08:39.319 wrong person has it, If you are utterly to your 0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:43.560 marrow convinced that this is what the Lord God commands 0:08:43.600 --> 0:08:45.760 you to do. You would use it, boy, And you 0:08:45.920 --> 0:08:48.920 talk about the world as a different place tomorrow than 0:08:48.960 --> 0:08:51.560 it was today, like it felt after nine to eleven. 0:08:51.800 --> 0:08:56.079 Somebody uses a nuke somewhere, Holy crap, everything on planet 0:08:56.120 --> 0:08:58.440 Earth would change so much, so fast. 0:08:58.840 --> 0:08:59.480 But you don't You. 0:08:59.400 --> 0:09:01.160 Want to have to be in that position. Don't let 0:09:01.160 --> 0:09:03.240 a ran get a nuke. It reminds me of the 0:09:03.240 --> 0:09:07.040 old saying. I say is a transition that the definition 0:09:07.080 --> 0:09:09.680 of a conservative is a liberal who's been robbed or 0:09:09.800 --> 0:09:13.480 mugged or burgled. And that's why simply save home security 0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:17.040 is such a great idea, So you don't join that list. 0:09:17.600 --> 0:09:20.280 Simply Safe is not just a camera that texts you, hey, 0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:22.760 there's a guy breaking in your window, like some of 0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:26.319 the other systems do. It's a comprehensive ecosystem of sensors, 0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:29.920 cameras for inside and out, twenty four to seven professional monitoring. 0:09:30.080 --> 0:09:31.720 In the event of a break in or even like 0:09:31.760 --> 0:09:34.520 a fire or a flood, simply safes agents are ready 0:09:34.559 --> 0:09:36.640 to take action. So if you're on an airplane or 0:09:36.679 --> 0:09:40.040 in a meeting, or in the shower or something, the cops. 0:09:39.720 --> 0:09:42.720 Are still going to get called. Do those other security 0:09:42.720 --> 0:09:46.200 systems use such a mundane tone, might as well somebody's 0:09:46.280 --> 0:09:49.120 robbing you. So here's a text. I guess you ought 0:09:49.160 --> 0:09:50.280 to do something about it. 0:09:50.760 --> 0:09:53.560 Simply for giving us your money for our crappy system, 0:09:53.920 --> 0:09:54.520 I have. 0:09:54.440 --> 0:09:57.200 Simply saying oh and thanks. You're locked in for two years, 0:09:57.200 --> 0:09:59.040 whether you like it or not. That's not the way 0:09:59.080 --> 0:10:02.960 it works. With simply no contract, you are not locked 0:10:03.000 --> 0:10:04.720 into anything. They earn your business every. 0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:08.199 Day twenty four to seven, monitoring for a fraction of 0:10:08.240 --> 0:10:11.440 what the traditional brands charge. It's so affordable and right now, 0:10:11.520 --> 0:10:13.600 you good people can get fifty percent off your new 0:10:13.600 --> 0:10:16.040 simply Safe system. It's simply safe dot com slash armstrong, 0:10:16.120 --> 0:10:17.800 it's simply save tok comslash Armstrong. 0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:20.400 There's no safe like simply Safe. Do that this weekend. 0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:22.440 I promised to shut up about this. I know I've 0:10:22.440 --> 0:10:24.840 brought this up many times over the years. I just 0:10:25.240 --> 0:10:30.440 don't think people get nuclear weapons and what it would 0:10:30.480 --> 0:10:33.840 do to planet Earth if we start using them. Eisenhower 0:10:34.720 --> 0:10:36.880 when he found out that Russia had a nuke, and 0:10:36.880 --> 0:10:40.280 then he got a report from actually Oppenheimer himself wrote 0:10:40.320 --> 0:10:42.120 a report on what h bombs would do. 0:10:42.240 --> 0:10:44.319 That's another thing. People don't get what we have now 0:10:44.320 --> 0:10:45.080 are h bombs. 0:10:45.160 --> 0:10:47.400 They've never been used because the bombs we used in 0:10:47.400 --> 0:10:50.080 World War Two were the regular atomic bombs. 0:10:50.120 --> 0:10:53.040 Each bombs are way bigger deal than that. I mean, 0:10:53.080 --> 0:10:53.960 not even close. 0:10:54.200 --> 0:10:57.720 And when Eisenhower got the report from oppenheimery actually cried, 0:10:58.040 --> 0:11:01.480 thinking the world is doomed. It's amazing that we've gone 0:11:01.520 --> 0:11:04.000 all these years without blowing ourselves up. And you're gonna 0:11:04.040 --> 0:11:06.800 let Iran get a nuke because gas is a dollar 0:11:06.800 --> 0:11:07.559 a gallon higher. 0:11:09.000 --> 0:11:13.360 Wow, well said he's Jack Armstrong. All right, we need 0:11:13.440 --> 0:11:16.040 as conservatives, we need to change our strategy to win 0:11:16.080 --> 0:11:19.800 over hearts and minds. I was absolutely shocked by something 0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:20.920 I read earlier today. 0:11:20.920 --> 0:11:22.439 I'm going to share it with you. Colt All on 0:11:22.559 --> 0:11:23.199 the way, stay here. 0:11:24.640 --> 0:11:31.720 According to his studies, salmon exposed to cocaine in the 0:11:31.760 --> 0:11:35.400 water can swim longer distances. In fact, I feel like 0:11:35.440 --> 0:11:38.600 we're gonna just keep going until they find an ATM. 0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:41.520 They call the guy. 0:11:41.360 --> 0:11:45.440 Back, Oh this is a different salmon cocaine Joe. I 0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:48.959 guess yes, sir, I'm gonna buy a boat, says the salmon. 0:11:48.960 --> 0:11:53.280 You're gonna buy a boat your fish? Oh boy, So 0:11:53.679 --> 0:11:55.520 every morning is I get ready for the show. I 0:11:55.520 --> 0:11:57.920 plow through various news what do. 0:11:57.880 --> 0:11:58.320 You call him? 0:11:58.360 --> 0:12:01.319 Newsletters that have all the headline and analysis stuff like that, 0:12:01.360 --> 0:12:04.160 including the New York Times, which is sometimes interesting. 0:12:04.360 --> 0:12:07.000 US stealing other people's material to have something to talk about. 0:12:07.040 --> 0:12:10.000 That's what both please. That's what I say on my 0:12:10.040 --> 0:12:10.960 IRS forms. 0:12:11.160 --> 0:12:12.719 What do you do for a living? I steal other 0:12:12.720 --> 0:12:18.880 people anyway? And the morning editor, what's his face? Sam 0:12:18.960 --> 0:12:24.760 Sifton writes, I grew up reading Harper's Index, a collection 0:12:24.800 --> 0:12:27.400 of statistics that has run in Harper's magazine since nineteen 0:12:27.440 --> 0:12:30.720 eighty four. There's something both spare and illuminating about each one. 0:12:30.760 --> 0:12:33.320 The collected facts amount to a kind of poetry, as 0:12:33.360 --> 0:12:38.800 these stanzas from the May issue suggest. The percentage of 0:12:38.800 --> 0:12:41.360 Americans who say that as children they knew a compassionate, 0:12:41.480 --> 0:12:45.079 non judgmental adult thirty five percent. 0:12:45.440 --> 0:12:47.199 What percentage? 0:12:47.240 --> 0:12:51.920 Oh, I'm just getting started, trust me, trust me as 0:12:51.960 --> 0:12:52.840 your tour guide. 0:12:53.160 --> 0:12:54.800 I'm just getting started, all right. 0:12:55.000 --> 0:12:58.120 Percentage of those thirty five percent who say their mother 0:12:58.280 --> 0:13:02.160 was such a person, fifty percent that say their father 0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:06.800 was five percent. Oh god, And I'm like, wait, what 0:13:07.240 --> 0:13:10.880 I got to go to the original source. And so 0:13:11.200 --> 0:13:16.239 I'm reading these statistics and they are so clearly leftist, 0:13:17.160 --> 0:13:22.000 you know, lack of contest propaganda, including how much worse 0:13:22.040 --> 0:13:24.199 America is under Trump and the rest of it. And 0:13:24.520 --> 0:13:28.120 there are a bunch of statistics. Average total value of 0:13:28.160 --> 0:13:31.880 reported OSHA penalties levied against US workplaces each month between 0:13:32.240 --> 0:13:36.360 nine and twenty four, it's eighteen million since Trump's second inauguration, 0:13:36.800 --> 0:13:37.720 just ten million. 0:13:38.080 --> 0:13:40.800 So obviously workers are getting abused and beaten. It's not 0:13:41.000 --> 0:13:44.320 like port reformer, regulatory reformer or anything like that. So 0:13:44.360 --> 0:13:47.920 it's just it's just ridiculous. But I just kept going 0:13:47.960 --> 0:13:49.080 because it was so amazing. 0:13:49.080 --> 0:13:51.200 Oh and it's try to spin the yarn that we 0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:53.560 dance on the We're the puppet at the end of 0:13:53.600 --> 0:13:56.560 Israel strings, which is just the most idiotic of tropes. 0:13:56.640 --> 0:13:58.440 We just watched your theory right in. He's got a 0:13:58.440 --> 0:14:00.679 text about that. We'll have to read later. Yeah, you're 0:14:00.679 --> 0:14:05.680 too stupid to text us stop. Wow. Wow. So I 0:14:05.880 --> 0:14:07.840 feel like that was an over cafinated response. 0:14:08.080 --> 0:14:10.600 God, that was And you know what's funny is my theme, 0:14:10.920 --> 0:14:14.240 this is ironic. My theme was going to be not 0:14:14.280 --> 0:14:19.320 to people like that, but to semi delusional progressives in 0:14:19.360 --> 0:14:22.120 our lives, in our professions, in our towns, whatever, and 0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:28.160 maybe in our churches. They have no idea who we 0:14:28.240 --> 0:14:29.880 are and what we think. 0:14:31.000 --> 0:14:33.200 They have no idea. 0:14:33.520 --> 0:14:35.960 And so if they come off as like hostile and 0:14:36.040 --> 0:14:39.120 weird in a lot of cases, it's because they've been 0:14:39.160 --> 0:14:43.560 reading this steaming pile of crap type stuff. 0:14:43.640 --> 0:14:45.520 All right, here I go, I'm really getting down to 0:14:45.560 --> 0:14:45.880 it now. 0:14:47.560 --> 0:14:49.880 The portion of Republicans under the age of fifty you 0:14:50.000 --> 0:14:54.440 describe themselves as antisemitic one in four who described themselves as. 0:14:54.400 --> 0:14:56.200 Racist, three and ten. 0:14:58.000 --> 0:15:03.440 Three in ten Republicans described themselves as racist, and they 0:15:03.560 --> 0:15:07.480 cite the source of a Manhattan Institute poll. 0:15:07.880 --> 0:15:11.200 So I'm like, all right, So I go from that 0:15:11.480 --> 0:15:12.440 to a source to. 0:15:12.440 --> 0:15:16.320 The Manhattan Institute, what the hell are you people talking about? 0:15:16.720 --> 0:15:18.280 And it took me a long time. 0:15:18.320 --> 0:15:22.920 I finally got to the source material the poll, and 0:15:23.000 --> 0:15:26.440 I found that question regarding individuals who openly expressed the 0:15:26.480 --> 0:15:28.840 following what comes closer to your view regarding their role 0:15:28.880 --> 0:15:32.880 in your party, in political movement racist views? And one 0:15:32.880 --> 0:15:35.480 of the choices was of those sort of people, I 0:15:35.560 --> 0:15:41.800 am such a person, And fifteen percent of Republicans allegedly 0:15:41.840 --> 0:15:46.160 said I am such a person I hold quote unquote 0:15:46.320 --> 0:15:52.360 racist views. Okay, it was fifteen percent, not thirty percent, 0:15:53.080 --> 0:15:55.400 So what the hell just happened there? 0:15:55.680 --> 0:15:59.520 And I'm skeptical about the fifteen percent what it means. 0:15:59.080 --> 0:16:02.800 Exactly Unless they're including the twenty two percent who said 0:16:03.160 --> 0:16:05.880 I've had enough of cancel culture, this should not count 0:16:05.920 --> 0:16:12.040 against them. And I say quote unquote racist views because. 0:16:11.720 --> 0:16:12.680 We all know. 0:16:14.440 --> 0:16:17.360 If, for instance, the Manhattan Institute and they are, and 0:16:17.520 --> 0:16:21.880 Harper's and they are, have bought the whole anti racism 0:16:22.760 --> 0:16:28.040 garbage to say America is the land of opportunity bingo, 0:16:28.360 --> 0:16:31.640 that is a racist attitude. So if somebody said that's 0:16:31.640 --> 0:16:34.800 a racist statitude then asked me do you hold racist views, 0:16:34.840 --> 0:16:37.920 I'd say, well, by your definition, yes, yes I do, 0:16:38.240 --> 0:16:40.320 and I'm proud of them, and I'd like to tell 0:16:40.320 --> 0:16:46.280 you about them. So again, the people who read, for instance, 0:16:46.360 --> 0:16:48.720 the New York Times, and this is not like the 0:16:49.360 --> 0:16:53.600 Jacobin or Jacobin or the you know, mother Jones, this 0:16:53.640 --> 0:16:56.760 is the New York Times, they have no idea who 0:16:56.800 --> 0:16:59.920 I am and what I think. And so maybe we 0:17:00.120 --> 0:17:02.960 can be a little more outreachy and a little less 0:17:03.040 --> 0:17:07.160 punch in the facie for people who just think conservatives 0:17:07.160 --> 0:17:09.200 are dumb, mean eracists. 0:17:09.480 --> 0:17:10.840 What was that first one? Though? 0:17:12.200 --> 0:17:14.760 Have you as a kid, do you know anybody who 0:17:14.800 --> 0:17:16.600 is nice and compassionate or something? 0:17:16.680 --> 0:17:20.719 Did you know any non compassionate, non a compassionate, non 0:17:20.840 --> 0:17:26.440 judgmental adult just thirty five percent who said their father. 0:17:26.560 --> 0:17:29.480 Was that five percent? Well, perhaps by I don't know 0:17:29.520 --> 0:17:33.240 whatever definition you use, I would say my father and 0:17:33.359 --> 0:17:38.080 virtually every buddy who I values father was judgmental in 0:17:38.119 --> 0:17:42.280 that they're that's good, that's bad, don't do that. That's 0:17:42.280 --> 0:17:47.239 a mistake. Son, that's not judgmental, that's judgment. 0:17:47.080 --> 0:17:49.639 I can't even imagine what they mean to come up 0:17:49.640 --> 0:17:54.800 with that number. Dream World. That is why dream World. 0:17:57.160 --> 0:17:59.320 We ought to get to this text about us a 0:17:59.440 --> 0:18:03.240 dance and to the end of the puppet strings of Israel. 0:18:03.280 --> 0:18:04.159 Not on an idiot. 0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:07.000 Oh my god, I've got to try some decaf. But 0:18:07.080 --> 0:18:09.480 the space race is different than you thought. Elon with 0:18:09.520 --> 0:18:11.760 an interesting tweet today, Stay. 0:18:12.560 --> 0:18:17.119 Armstrong and getty. A major arrest tied to a suspicious 0:18:17.160 --> 0:18:20.359 thirty two thousand dollars bet that paid out in January 0:18:20.760 --> 0:18:24.040 by a trader who used the name Burdensome mix. The 0:18:24.119 --> 0:18:27.600 bet was a long shot that longtime Venezuelan president Nicolas 0:18:27.640 --> 0:18:30.160 Maduro would be out by the end of January. 0:18:30.480 --> 0:18:31.440 Shortly after it. 0:18:31.359 --> 0:18:36.560 Was placed, a covert US military operation ensued, extracting Maduro. 0:18:36.960 --> 0:18:40.000 Law enforcement now alleging that the trader who made over 0:18:40.160 --> 0:18:44.720 four hundred thousand dollars is US Special Forces soldier Gannon 0:18:44.880 --> 0:18:47.399 Ken van Dijk and that he was involved in the 0:18:47.440 --> 0:18:50.000 planning and execution of the Maduro raid. 0:18:50.160 --> 0:18:52.359 Guessing he's a young man, did they give his age? 0:18:52.400 --> 0:18:54.359 And I don't know what your salary is and the 0:18:54.400 --> 0:18:56.600 Special Forces, but it wouldn't be that much. And four 0:18:56.680 --> 0:19:02.440 hundred thousand dollars is a lot of money. It's thirty eight. Yeah, 0:19:02.800 --> 0:19:07.919 it's funny. This whole polymarket predictions market betting thing is 0:19:08.000 --> 0:19:08.840 so out of control. 0:19:08.880 --> 0:19:13.680 As we're about to hear and there's there's danger in this. 0:19:14.680 --> 0:19:18.920 There's a small part of me that thinks, wow, dude, got. 0:19:18.680 --> 0:19:21.120 The word there going, he threw a little bit down. 0:19:21.200 --> 0:19:22.879 Nobody noticed. What's the harm? 0:19:23.240 --> 0:19:26.879 Well, the harm would be, I understand, I understand that. 0:19:26.920 --> 0:19:28.720 I think I said that it myself earlier. The harm 0:19:28.720 --> 0:19:31.720 would be, though people start doing things or not doing 0:19:31.800 --> 0:19:34.360 things because they've got the bet. So you don't want 0:19:34.400 --> 0:19:37.199 anybody with any decision making saying yes, we're going to 0:19:37.240 --> 0:19:40.200 Maduro even though something changed and now wouldn't be a 0:19:40.240 --> 0:19:42.960 good time, or the other way around, to make money. 0:19:43.000 --> 0:19:46.080 You don't want that happening. Well, and there's that's absolutely true, 0:19:46.080 --> 0:19:47.800 and there's more to it than that. I mean, like 0:19:47.800 --> 0:19:48.480 fixing games. 0:19:48.480 --> 0:19:51.720 It's the exact same thing is fixing basketball games? 0:19:52.000 --> 0:19:54.840 Right? Or this, let's get to seventy two Michael John Miller. 0:19:55.280 --> 0:19:59.399 This is a Q too foreign intelligence service is to 0:19:59.520 --> 0:20:02.720 watch the anomalist bets on these platforms, which is a 0:20:02.760 --> 0:20:06.040 relatively new phenomena to say, you know, do we see 0:20:06.040 --> 0:20:08.920 a clue here and can we trace these things back? 0:20:09.640 --> 0:20:12.960 Are we getting inside information by default that way? Which 0:20:13.040 --> 0:20:15.920 is just another national security risk? But it's a brave 0:20:16.000 --> 0:20:17.000 new world out there. 0:20:17.200 --> 0:20:17.800 Yeah, I. 0:20:19.640 --> 0:20:21.119 Don't know about that because it would be such a 0:20:21.160 --> 0:20:23.600 short amount of time. Like I'm thinking of the one 0:20:23.640 --> 0:20:26.520 where all the people did the oil future stuff right 0:20:26.560 --> 0:20:29.439 before Trump came out and said no, we're not going 0:20:29.520 --> 0:20:32.920 to bomb them. What would if you'd have figured that out, 0:20:33.359 --> 0:20:35.280 you'd have had I don't know, fifteen minutes to do what. 0:20:36.160 --> 0:20:38.560 Yeah, in that case, I can't come up with the what. 0:20:38.840 --> 0:20:42.840 But in general, it's absolutely a terrible thing. If you have, 0:20:42.960 --> 0:20:45.639 you know, the whole Pentagon staff rushing to put bets 0:20:45.680 --> 0:20:50.760 on polymarket. If you have bet the troops arrive by Friday, No, no, 0:20:50.840 --> 0:20:51.640 we can't have that. 0:20:51.760 --> 0:20:53.920 Man, if you have one guy in a big operation 0:20:54.040 --> 0:20:58.320 who stands to make four hundred thousand dollars if because 0:20:58.320 --> 0:21:00.600 then you kind of get into the pete rose. As 0:21:00.640 --> 0:21:03.920 long as you're betting on yourself, it's a little more palatable. 0:21:03.960 --> 0:21:05.960 But what if you ever bet against yourself? 0:21:06.320 --> 0:21:06.720 Clearly? 0:21:07.040 --> 0:21:12.200 Yeah, yeah, or you know, I'm using my imagination here, 0:21:12.240 --> 0:21:17.680 but it's not that outlandish. If you thought, oh, shoot. 0:21:18.200 --> 0:21:19.760 Was dropping this mom thatndor been funny? 0:21:20.040 --> 0:21:23.240 Oh darn it, I bet like my next four house 0:21:23.280 --> 0:21:29.560 payments that we wouldn't extract Maduro. Maybe this helicopter develops 0:21:29.600 --> 0:21:34.680
