Obama 39 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 4: deported lots and lots of people.

These terms recognize the difference between 49 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,640 Speaker 4: section gender and emphasize the way in which section gender 50 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 4: are not binary or immutable. 51 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,359 Speaker 1: They can be changed.

For a decade or more, yes, 79 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 4: even when Republicans have been nominally in control, we've been 80 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 4: led by peddlers of a set of ideas that have 81 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 4: clothed our institutions in the country in social and political doctrines, 82 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 4: fake claims, and strictures that have inflicted untold harms. The 83 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 4: fancy new items of invisible attire that our nation's rulers 84 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 4: have made us wear for too long include these. The 85 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 4: idea that people who have stolen into this country illegally 86 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 4: should be showered with all the rights and benefits of citizens, 87 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 4: that it is immoral to deny them those rights, and 88 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 4: that they should instead be treated as victims of persecution 89 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 4: and given sanctuary in our crowded and fiscally strained cities. 90 00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,039 Speaker 1: Call bullss on that. 91 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:03,679 Speaker 4: That's ridiculous, the idea that a nation that sits atop 92 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 4: one of the greatest reservoirs of natural energy resources on 93 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 4: Earth should forcibly restrain itself from exploiting them to save 94 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:15,039 Speaker 4: the planet on the basis of politicized science, while other 95 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 4: countries are free to do much more damage to the 96 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,600 Speaker 4: global environment. That's a good Gavin, cut the crap. 97 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:23,039 Speaker 1: That's a good one. 98 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:25,359 Speaker 4: At the risk of going off on this as I 99 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 4: did last hour, meaningless effectless gestures in the face of 100 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 4: all the other countries on Earth doing what they're doing. 101 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 4: You know, if you were going to do some good, 102 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 4: come to the table with that argument, say yeah, we 103 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 4: got to risk damaging the economy and poor people are 104 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 4: going to stay poor, and inflation's gonna rise because energy 105 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,840 Speaker 4: prices affect everything. But look that it's lowered emissions twenty 106 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 4: percent globally, except it hasn't hasn't done anything, So cut 107 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 4: the crap. Here's another good one, the idea that after 108 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 4: a century and a half of progress in solving and 109 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 4: soothing America's original sin of racism and making the country 110 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 4: more equal, we are suddenly obliged to believe that America 111 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,480 Speaker 4: is as oppressive as it was in sixteen nineteen, and 112 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 4: that the best way to write the past wrong of 113 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,359 Speaker 4: treating people based on the color of their skin is 114 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,599 Speaker 4: to treat people based on the color of their skin. 115 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 1: M god, I hope that's over. I really hope that's over. 116 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 4: What we all hope for is those radicals just nasty people. 117 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 4: Don't have the juice to end your career anymore. Because 118 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 4: your management, your corporate godfathers are such cowards. They're not 119 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,359 Speaker 4: going to stand up to the crap. It's easier to 120 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 4: fire you, and they'll say on the way out. You know, Jim, 121 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 4: I'm really sorry about this. I mean, it's really unfortunate 122 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 4: they don't have the balls to say because you said 123 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 4: nothing wrong. But these people are so mad. I'm gonna 124 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,920 Speaker 4: capitulate to them, but that's what they're thinking. 125 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 1: Stand up to it. 126 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 3: I'm less optimistic on the illegal immigration part because I've 127 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 3: been before, but on the trans and anti racist and 128 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,159 Speaker 3: what was the other one I was going to include 129 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 3: in that. It'll come to me. But on a couple 130 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 3: of those, is it possible? Oh, the climate change? Is 131 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 3: it possible. We're on the other side of those, and 132 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 3: we just all, unfortunately, those of us of a certain age, 133 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 3: just lived through this really weird time. Yeah, we're things, 134 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 3: people said, all kinds of crazy stuff, and you had. 135 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 1: To go along with it. Yeah. 136 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 4: I think we're at this stage of it where the 137 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 4: troops are rallied. We're aware, we're fired up, but you 138 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 4: got to remember the enemy is absolutely running our nation's 139 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 4: educational complex right now, and our media and entertainment. But 140 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 4: education is the most insidious part because they're indoctrinating our kids. 141 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 4: So yeah, the battle has just begun. Here's another great one, 142 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 4: another one of these insane ideas that we've been forced 143 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 4: to pretend are are not idiotic, The idea that children should, 144 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 4: without parental consultation or consent, be free to choose their gender, 145 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 4: be assisted by the state in committing acts of self 146 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 4: mutilation to do so, and all on the understanding that 147 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 4: we have repealed millennia of science and just discovered there's 148 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 4: no such thing as biological sex. 149 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: Bow ass cut the crap. 150 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 3: I think that one is the biggest anchor around Gavin 151 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 3: Newsom's neck. If he tries to run for president. How's 152 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 3: he gonna How's he gonna deal with that. 153 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 4: Expiring experimenting on in mutilating children because they're momentarily confused 154 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 4: and I have adolescence. 155 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 3: And Gavin signed in law the idea that the schools 156 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 3: can keep it a secret from you, so that in 157 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 3: fact they must, How does how does he deal with that? 158 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 4: I want that's one of the reasons I want him 159 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 4: to run. I want him to be beaten like a 160 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 4: drum for these reasons, because it's important to defeat this crap. 161 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: There's a little. 162 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 4: More or the Empress new clothes that people have just 163 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 4: been walking around silently pretending they didn't notice or too 164 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 4: afraid to resist the idea that democracy and freedom are 165 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 4: best protected by denying people the right to express certain 166 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 4: views that the authorities deem misinformation, and by weaponizing the 167 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:20,200 Speaker 4: law against political opponents lest they weaponize the law for 168 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 4: political purposes. 169 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 1: That's a good one. 170 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 4: They're actually democrats out right now saying, hey, you know 171 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 4: weaponizing law against candidates is probably a bad strategy, admitting 172 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 4: that that was the strategy, so ambitious elites in business 173 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 4: and civil society went along with these fictions. Politicians on 174 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 4: all sides, including Republicans, declined to dissent for fear of 175 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 4: being called out. And here's where Gerard Baker gives Trump 176 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 4: a fair amount of credit. It took a man with 177 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 4: some of the instincts of a child, a political angenoux newcomer, 178 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 4: lacking the sophistication to participate in the sham, to call 179 00:09:59,200 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 4: the whole thing. 180 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 1: Out for what it was. 181 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 4: And then he makes it clear that he's not like 182 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 4: totally in on Trump and his plans and his policies 183 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 4: and the rest of it. But for God's sake, we 184 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:15,119 Speaker 4: needed to call bulls on the bulls. 185 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 1: But here's what I'm optimistic about. 186 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:19,680 Speaker 4: He says, four years from now, there's a good chance 187 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 4: that the nonsense we have had to endure will be buried, 188 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 4: that important things will become normal again. It will have 189 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 4: become normal to tell people they have who have no 190 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 4: right to be here, that they must leave. 191 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: That in the process, people around the world will have. 192 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 4: Been made to understand that they don't have an automatic 193 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 4: right to live in the freest, most prosperous country on earth. 194 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 4: Then he goes on the children. You know, I'm going 195 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 4: to hit this because it's one of my jihads. It 196 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 4: will have become normal again for children to be helped 197 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 4: to respond to the inevitable strains and traumas of growing up, 198 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 4: not by having their genitals cut out, but by receiving 199 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 4: loving guidance, guidance and care from family and society. 200 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 3: Got the crab. I hope that's true. I hope that's true. 201 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 3: I think it's true. It's going to be longer and 202 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 3: harder battle than four years. 203 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 4: Man. The university system and their influence on the elementary 204 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 4: education system and secondary. 205 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 1: Is It's going to be a long, hard fight, But 206 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 1: I'm up for it. Are you? 207 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 3: Where are people getting their news and information? A new 208 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 3: PU study kind of interesting, particularly around young people. 209 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 1: It's a little disturbing. I don't know what that happens. 210 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 3: Of course, as you were just talking about, if people 211 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 3: catch on to the fact that the mainstream media is 212 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:37,559 Speaker 3: not a very reliable source of real news, people are 213 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 3: going to turn to other sources. Sure, and the problem 214 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 3: being the other sources are probably not better either, but 215 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 3: a lot of stuff to talk about on the way to. 216 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 1: Hear how well, the head of their party, the outgoing 217 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: president Man the ramparts. 218 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 3: During this challenging and fraught peaceful transition to factism. 219 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 5: President Biden is in Zil, where he became the first 220 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 5: American head of state to visit the Amazon rainforest. He 221 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 5: went there to highlight the dangers of climate change and 222 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 5: the need to turn away from fossil fuels. 223 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 3: In the middle of all this, he disappeared to the rainforest. 224 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 1: Maybe this is how we should do the transfer of power. 225 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 3: The winner moves into the White House. 226 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: And the incumbent just wanders off into the jungle so 227 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: that he's nutrients maybe returned to the soil. 228 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 3: A peaceful transfer to fascism, less for you money, Yeah. 229 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 4: Man, if I've been amused reading the various accounts of 230 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 4: Joe and Mika's pilgrimage down to mar A Lago, both 231 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 4: the very serious discussions of what it means and then 232 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 4: the snarkier ones which are much more appropriate. 233 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 3: All right, all the way around this peaceful transfer to fascism, 234 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 3: where I was like, eh, I guess we'll just accept 235 00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 3: that it's. 236 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 1: It's Trump and move on with our lives.

We have 241 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 3: talked about this many times. The one of the problems 242 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 3: with the algorithms on ads is this assumption that whatever 243 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 3: it is you shopped for or bought, you're gonna buy 244 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 3: many more of or be shopping for them forever. And 245 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 3: I don't understand how they haven't fixed that already, that 246 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 3: they don't have categories where they realize this is like a. 247 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: One time purchase. 248 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 3: For instance, this funny one from somebody yesterday I came 249 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 3: across on Twitter. Dear Amazon, I bought a toilet seat 250 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 3: because I needed one necessity, not desire. 251 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 4: I do not collect them. I'm not a toilet seat addict. 252 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 4: No matter how attemptingly you email. 253 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 3: I email me, I'm not going to think, Oh, go on, 254 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 3: then just one more toilet seat. 255 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:55,719 Speaker 1: I'll treat myself. That's kid, It's really good. I did 256 00:13:55,720 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 1: not collect them. I'm not an addict. That's funny. 257 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 3: For the next two years, you get toilet seed ads 258 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:06,439 Speaker 3: you're buying by the palette. 259 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: Oh, that is funny. I'm surprised they haven't figured that 260 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:10,439 Speaker 1: out yet. 261 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 3: While we're on Twitter, this from Michael Avenatti, and I 262 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 3: mentioned this because we might get breaking news during the 263 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 3: show today that the stupid Stormy Daniels hush money case 264 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 3: has been basically ended and tossed. Remember Michael Avenati, he 265 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 3: was the representative for Stormy Daniels, and then he became. 266 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 1: Such a hero to America. 267 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 3: He went on all the talk shows, he was on 268 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 3: the late night shows and the View and everything like 269 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 3: that as the guy who's going to bring down Trump 270 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 3: and a hero and he should run for president and 271 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 3: all this stuff. He turned out to be a crook, 272 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 3: stole from Stormy Daniels, went to jail. But anyway, he 273 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 3: stole from everybody, stole from everybody and went to jail. 274 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 3: Here's Michael Avanatti's tweet from yesterday. The hush money verdict 275 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 3: should be promptly thrown out by Judge Murshaan and the 276 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 3: case immediately dismissed. It was always a political prosecution solely 277 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 3: designed to keep President Trump from being elected, founded on 278 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 3: the perjury of grifters Cohen and Daniels. He calls his 279 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 3: own client a grifter and but he would west uh 280 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 3: founded on the perjury of the grifters Cohen and Daniels. 281 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 3: While the country moves forward, Coen and Daniels can crawl 282 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 3: back to where they came from. 283 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 1: Writing this from prison. I don't know if he's out 284 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: or not. Yeah, time flies? Is it that something? 285 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 6: Though? 286 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 3: Again, I mean another cut the crap that was and 287 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 3: most of America saw through. That is phony political prosecution. 288 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 3: And seriously, and now and now as of I think 289 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 3: later today, it's all going to be over. 290 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: That'll be over. Wow. Not a good way to run things. 291 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 4: So he's not hitler, And yeah, it was a phony prosecution. 292 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 4: But let's all move on with our lives. 293 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: Hey, all's well, that ends. Well, let's shake hands and 294 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 1: then we'll see in the midterms. Okay. 295 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 3: So Pew's out with a study not surprising that a 296 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 3: lot of people get their news from what they call influencers, 297 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 3: and that would be people on social media who, for 298 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 3: whatever reason you respect their opinion. And it can come 299 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 3: from all different walks of life. You know, it can 300 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 3: be a singer and artists, a politician, or just like 301 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 3: you know, some farmer who you trust their opinion, who 302 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 3: build a following on Twitter or TikTok or something like that, 303 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 3: and they become an influencer, and that's where you get 304 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 3: a lot of your new stuff from. And I know 305 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 3: people that follow non professionals as closely as they follow 306 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 3: any professionals in media for their opinion on things, which 307 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 3: I find interesting. What I was surprised by is it 308 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 3: all It leans mostly right most of the news sources 309 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 3: out there, and they use Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube. It's 310 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 3: mostly right leaning influencers that influence people throughout the election. 311 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 3: Twitter's the only one that's balanced left and right. All 312 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 3: the other ones are people on the right getting their 313 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 3: information from their for better or worse. Probably because most 314 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 3: of the mainstream media is so left, you have to 315 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 3: go somewhere else right exactly, It's created a need for 316 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,400 Speaker 3: an alternative him almost certainly what is driven it. 317 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 1: Armstrong and getty. He wants him to be the face 318 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 1: of the Justice Department. 319 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:18,119 Speaker 7: The only way that Donald Trump believes he can be 320 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 7: the face of the Justice. 321 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:22,120 Speaker 1: Department is as Attorney general. And so he has told 322 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:23,639 Speaker 1: everyone around him all through. 323 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 6: The weekend, all last week that he is one hundred 324 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 6: percent behind Matt Gates and that what he wants the 325 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 6: most out of any of his picks is for Gates 326 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 6: to be confirmed. 327 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 3: So I pay attention to what the mainstream media is 328 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 3: paying attention to because it has an influence on the 329 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 3: national conversation and all the major networks I was checking 330 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 3: today leading with either Gates whether or not he's going 331 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:50,120 Speaker 3: to be the attorney general, or the mass deportations, and 332 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 3: then flip the stories because those are the top two 333 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 3: stories the mainstream media is into right now. The mass 334 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 3: deportations thing is popular. Trump ran on it. It's not 335 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 3: a surprise. Sixty percent of Americas for it. We'll see 336 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,800 Speaker 3: how that plays out. The Gates thing, I think was 337 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 3: a surprise to a lot of people. He didn't run 338 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,879 Speaker 3: in specifically on that, and I have assumed since he 339 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 3: announced that that it probably wouldn't happen. But maybe I'm wrong. 340 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 3: And as you just heard there from the lead on CNN, 341 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:20,679 Speaker 3: Trump wants it to happen. This is what the New 342 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:24,639 Speaker 3: York Times is writing today. In private conversations over the 343 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 3: past few days, President elect Donald J. Trump has admitted 344 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,400 Speaker 3: that his besieged choice for Attorney General, Matt Gates, has 345 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 3: less than even odds of being confirmed by the Senate. 346 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 3: Now you never know if the New York Times is 347 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 3: right or not. But that's Trump saying he thinks it's 348 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 3: less than fifty to fifty that Gates gets through. But 349 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:45,880 Speaker 3: mister Trump has shown no signs of withdrawing the nomination, 350 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 3: which speaks volumes about his mindset as he staffs his 351 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 3: second administration. He's making calls on mister Gates's behalf, and 352 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 3: he remains confident that even if mister Gates does not 353 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 3: make it, the standard for an acceptable candidate will have 354 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 3: shifted so much that the Senate may simply approve his 355 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,360 Speaker 3: other nominees who have appalled much of Washington. 356 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:10,119 Speaker 1: It's an interesting take. Yeah, yeah, I've heard that argument. 357 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 1: I don't have any idea if that's his thinking or not. 358 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 3: So I mentioned that yesterday I was listened to a 359 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 3: couple of podcasts with some of my favorite like super 360 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:22,400 Speaker 3: Smart Pundits Who are I think they're all lawyers who 361 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,680 Speaker 3: know a lot about the nomination process and the confirmation process, 362 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,639 Speaker 3: and I was surprised that three of them thought Gates 363 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 3: would get through. The why I can get to after 364 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,919 Speaker 3: we hear this, This is on a number of newscasts 365 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:40,920 Speaker 3: last night. Lawyer for one of the girls that testified 366 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:47,200 Speaker 3: privately to that congressional committee about the whole Gates having 367 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 3: sex with a seventeen year old story. 368 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 1: Here's the lawyer on NBC News last night. 369 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 6: She was walking outside to the pool and she observed 370 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,120 Speaker 6: to write her friend, who was seventeen at the time 371 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:58,879 Speaker 6: of having sex with Represented Gates. They were leaned up 372 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 6: to what she described to as a game table. 373 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 1: Of some type. 374 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 7: Did your client believe that Gates at the time knew 375 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 7: that her friend was underage? 376 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:09,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, so the house was curious about that. 377 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:13,160 Speaker 6: She testified that her belief was that Representative Gates had 378 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:16,199 Speaker 6: no knowledge that she was under eighteen, that she was 379 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 6: seventeen years old at the time he was having sex 380 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,439 Speaker 6: with her. She also testified that when Representative Gates found 381 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 6: out that she was under age, that they stopped their 382 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 6: sexual relationship and did not resume it until after she 383 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 6: returned eighteen. 384 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 3: I thought that was interesting. And then hear a little 385 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 3: more on this and then I can fill in some 386 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 3: other details. 387 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 6: They did testify, both of them that they consented to 388 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 6: their activities. They were also asked whether or not they 389 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 6: were victims, and and she broke down in tears and 390 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 6: she said It's a very complicated question. 391 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,640 Speaker 7: Did your clients make any assessments in their testimony about 392 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 7: mister Gates's fitness or judgment to serve in office. 393 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 6: They're very careful about what they might express publicly, but 394 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:57,919 Speaker 6: one did say, I do not think a man like 395 00:20:58,000 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 6: him should have that much power. 396 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,159 Speaker 3: Well, she's probably a young Democrat who would hate whoever 397 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,679 Speaker 3: Trump would pick to be a nominee for attorney general. 398 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 3: But what I think is interesting about this story is 399 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 3: everybody can have a line morality line or you know 400 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 3: who they think ought to be attorney general line and 401 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 3: draw it in different places.

Clear over to Oh, it turns out he 407 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 3: didn't know she was seventeen and stopped contacted afterwards. I'm okay, then, 408 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:47,360 Speaker 3: right and anywhere in between. Yeah, I suppose so sure. Yeah, 409 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,120 Speaker 3: I don't disagree with anything you've said there. I've got 410 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,919 Speaker 3: to go back to your dismissal of her saying a 411 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 3: man like that shouldn't have power. 412 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:55,640 Speaker 1: She's probably a young democrat. 413 00:21:55,680 --> 00:22:00,159 Speaker 4: Anyway, Hang on now, and I could name names of 414 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 4: guys we've known like that, sex pigs who do lots 415 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 4: of drugs and get with as many young girls as 416 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:11,120 Speaker 4: they can at these parties and run around because their 417 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:15,880 Speaker 4: daddy was rich, driving expensive cars and being complete scumbags. 418 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:17,879 Speaker 1: And if anybody. 419 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 4: Asked you, should he have power, you'd have said no, 420 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 4: probably because I would hate. 421 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 1: Them because they're loathsome. 422 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,199 Speaker 3: Right, So I didn't get until so this guy was 423 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,360 Speaker 3: on a bunch of shows yesterday, I don't remember which 424 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 3: one where I finally found out that this party these 425 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:39,919 Speaker 3: girls are prostitutes. So this party hired women to be 426 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,199 Speaker 3: at the party and have sex with the people they 427 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,399 Speaker 3: invited to the party. I'd never been to a party 428 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 3: like that. I sounds like a diddy party of some that. 429 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 1: Kind of thing. 430 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 3: I guess those parties exist where you show up to 431 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 3: the party and you know the girls are all open game. 432 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: They're supposed to have sex with you. 433 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:57,439 Speaker 3: They're being paid, so there's like, no, you don't have 434 00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 3: to like buy him flowers, actor out, ask him out, 435 00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 3: and charm them. 436 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,199 Speaker 1: That's what they're there for, and so that's how the 437 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 1: age of consent wherever this party was. You know, that's funny. 438 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 3: They never an enormous question, That's funny. They never throw 439 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,960 Speaker 3: that in. They they do say underage various times. So 440 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 3: it must be seventeen, must be under the age of 441 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 3: consent or I assume you wouldn't call it underage. 442 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:18,919 Speaker 1: No, I do. 443 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 4: That just sounds like sloppy mainstream media to be dishonesty. 444 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 1: Could could be. 445 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,120 Speaker 4: I'm just curious, I mean, And part of the reason 446 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 4: I asked that is there's no such thing as a 447 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 4: child prostitute, that is a rape slave. A child does 448 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 4: not have the legal nor moral uh you know wherewithal 449 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 4: to consent to sex, certainly for money. 450 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 3: So yeah, the fact that that details left out actually 451 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 3: would lead me to believe that she's not underage, because. 452 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,120 Speaker 1: Otherwise you would throw that in, wouldn't you. 453 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 3: I mean, I would agree the point of all these 454 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 3: news stories is to bring down Matt Gates. I would 455 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 3: think if it was strictly illegal and that makes him 456 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 3: a sex offender by definition, that you would throw that 457 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:01,439 Speaker 3: detail in, right, So I think you're probably right. 458 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: We got to look into that, We got to figure 459 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: that out suspicious. How wish you wash you that? 460 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 4: Yeah? 461 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, But anyway, so that's how that you know, how 462 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 3: he ends up having sex up against a foosball table 463 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,879 Speaker 3: at a party is because they're prostitutes and that's what 464 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 3: they were there for. And then there's also testimony that 465 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:24,640 Speaker 3: he would he because I've got the texts and everything, 466 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 3: he would text and say basically, are are they who's 467 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 3: bringing the drugs? Are there going to be drugs there? 468 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,720 Speaker 3: And he had code words for all this stuff, very 469 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 3: sly code words. And so again there's another place you 470 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 3: can draw the line. 471 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 1: Whatever your view is of this sort of thing. You 472 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 1: know he's doing. 473 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 3: He's doing illegal drugs at this party two and having 474 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 3: sex with prostitutes. But I thought it wasn't as damning 475 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:52,640 Speaker 3: a testimony as it could be. He wasn't seeking out 476 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 3: a seventeen year old right right, No, I see what 477 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 3: you're driving at and listen. I'm no fan of Matt 478 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:00,960 Speaker 3: Gates at all. 479 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 4: On the other hand, his lifestyle is not terribly different 480 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:07,439 Speaker 4: than that of John F. Kennedy or decent you know, 481 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 4: Teddy Kennedy or a bunch of other people Junior, which 482 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 4: does not make it okay it reinforces that there were 483 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 4: scumbags who really should have reigned it in. One of 484 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:20,399 Speaker 4: the things that bothers me about Gates is he was 485 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 4: barely a lawyer for like two years. He didn't really 486 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 4: practice much at all, and running the Justice Department, you 487 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 4: really ought to have a pretty firm grasp on how 488 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 4: criminal law works, among the other issues I have with him. 489 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:33,439 Speaker 1: But whatever, I don't know. 490 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I heard pushback on that. I don't know anything 491 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,119 Speaker 3: about this. I heard pushback on that yesterday from like, 492 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:43,160 Speaker 3: for instance, Sarah Isgar who worked in the Trump Justice 493 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 3: Department at the time.

So unless there's 561 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 3: like a really overwhelming reason to not say okay to 562 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 3: the person, you should say okay to the person, with 563 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 3: some of the argument being if you start reading ag 564 00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 3: would be a different choice because that's a specific duties 565 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 3: and powers, but a lot of the advisor's sort of stuff. 566 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 3: If you reject them, he'll just get his vice from 567 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:07,960 Speaker 3: someone else who's not officially on the books, you know 568 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 3: what I mean. 569 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,520 Speaker 4: And given the nature of the cabinet these days, which 570 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:13,720 Speaker 4: is see you just execute what the president tells you 571 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 4: to do, it's it's you know, he'll just get the 572 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 4: next person. 573 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 3: But anyway, I heard a couple of people making the 574 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 3: argument how difficult it would be for these Republican senators 575 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 3: to come out against Gates unless they can get enough 576 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 3: people together, you know, before the hearing or you know, 577 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 3: behind closed doors or whatever, say how many of us 578 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 3: are We need like at least twenty of us so 579 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 3: that we're not all you know, the individual targets. We 580 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 3: need a bunch of us, because the MAGA army will 581 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 3: come after these people so hard.

Hey dude, 597 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 4: we got twenty defectors on Gates. Everybody else is looking solid, 598 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 4: although I have some strong issues with Tulsea Gabbard, but 599 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 4: more on that to come. You don't have the votes, 600 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 4: You don't even have close to the votes, and then 601 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 4: either the White House withdraws Gates or Gates to withdraws 602 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 4: himself to avoid the beating he would take or the humiliation, 603 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 4: although I think Gates is below or above humiliation. 604 00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 1: Depending on how you look at it. I certainly i Trump. 605 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 3: You only get so much political capital, which drips away 606 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 3: a little by little as you take on all these battles, 607 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 3: and I just don't think spending it up man Gates, 608 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 3: seems the best expenditure of your political capital to me. 609 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 4: Right, final note, very quickly, because I believe the Justice 610 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 4: Department does have a hell of a lot of straightening 611 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 4: out that needs to be done. A lot of you 612 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 4: Gate supporters, I agree with you on a lot of it, 613 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 4: but it reminds me of the old fallacy, the fraud 614 00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:42,480 Speaker 4: that something must be done, This is something, therefore, this 615 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:45,719 Speaker 4: must be done. Now what if this is a terrible idea? 616 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 4: Someone needs to clean out the Justice Department. Gates is someone. Therefore, 617 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 4: Gates must clean out. 618 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,040 Speaker 1: To No, I'm not going along with it.
