1
00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:06,200
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

2
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:10,240
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.

3
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:17,320
Speaker 2: Arm Strong and Getty, and he Armstrong and Getty.

4
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:27,560
Speaker 3: It has been stated by many that the first month

5
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 3: of our presidency, it's our presidency is the most successful

6
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 3: in the history.

7
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 2: Of our nation by Manada.

8
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 3: And what makes it even more impressive is that do

9
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:53,239
Speaker 3: you know who number two is?

10
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 2: George Washington? How about that?

11
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,639
Speaker 3: I don't know about that list, but we'll take it.

12
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 2: There you go.

13
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,960
Speaker 4: It was very much like a campaign rally. It was entertaining.

14
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 4: This fake not so too and so toos aren't so

15
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 4: toos anymore. I refer to it as the so tack

16
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 4: the state of the ass kicking speech, as it was

17
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 4: a well. One of our charming correspondents described it as

18
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 4: a curb stomping of Democrats. I never used that term

19
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 4: because I find it disgusting and I don't like violence.

20
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 4: But as a snapshot of the current political landscape, it

21
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 4: was so revealing in ways that we will discuss.

22
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 1: Wow, I didn't. I saw some MSNBC coverage afterwards. One

23
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 1: of the hosts, I think it was Rachel Maddow called

24
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 1: Trump's recognition of that cancer survivor kid disgusting, not only

25
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 1: something you don't stand and cheer for or have tears

26
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,919
Speaker 1: streaming down your face because it was so damn cute.

27
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 2: Disgusting is what MSNBC called it.

28
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 4: Right, And he was trying to use the goodwill toward

29
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 4: the poor cancer stricken boy to justify his hilarian dictator

30
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,919
Speaker 4: urges or something blah blah blah. So when their side

31
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 4: does it, it's brilliant, and when the other side does it,

32
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 4: it's a horror.

33
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:14,799
Speaker 2: Okay, that's where we are.

34
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 1: Oh one other thing, I just I saw this on

35
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 1: Morning Joe Today on MSNBC. Somebody, I'm guessing somebody who

36
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:30,359
Speaker 1: hates Trump had a live mic on JD and Johnson

37
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 1: behind Trump before Trump walked in, and so they had

38
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: some of the audio of when they're just standing there

39
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 1: talking while everybody's milling around before the thing started, and

40
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 1: they played it on Morning Joe's dressing. Yeah, how did

41
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 1: that leak out? Somebody's in charge of the sound. I mean,

42
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 1: there are mics there, and if there are mics there,

43
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: I mean we're in this business. If there are mics

44
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: around you, they can be turned on or they can

45
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 1: be listened to in Q and you can record them

46
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,959
Speaker 1: in Q and whatever. And somebody recorded it and got

47
00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:00,360
Speaker 1: it to Morning Joe and they played it luckily for

48
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: JD and uh and uh. Speaker Johnson, that was nothing

49
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: horrifying JD wise enough, he started to say something and

50
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: then he pulled Johnson in close and whispered it in

51
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: his ear, so he knew there were live mics around.

52
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 2: Possibly, But how uncool is that?

53
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, wow, that's somebody on the House technical staff, No

54
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,239
Speaker 4: doubt it's got to be again.

55
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,360
Speaker 2: When when will the norm breaking end? When will the

56
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 2: norm breaking?

57
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 1: In the fact that a Democrat, an old man Democrat,

58
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,079
Speaker 1: stood up and just wouldn't start stop yelling, and Speaker

59
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 1: Johnson had to say, Okay, you got to stop yelling

60
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: or we're gonna kick you out of here, basically, and

61
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: the old man kept yelling, and so they brought the

62
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 1: cops over, you know, the the house cops, and I'll

63
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: sshered him on out of there. But the fact that

64
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: that's barely even news today shows you where we are.

65
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 2: If that had happened twenty years ago, it would have

66
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 2: just been.

67
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:59,119
Speaker 4: Crazy right right honestly though it was so clearly performative.

68
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 2: Oh ye'll play you some some clips In a second.

69
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 4: Crazy old woke cane shaking old fart, but decides to

70
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 4: make himself a hero by getting kicked out.

71
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 2: All right, so you're not gonna sit down. Now you

72
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 2: got to kick you out.

73
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,159
Speaker 4: Let's go through. We'll waste thirty seconds of our lives there.

74
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 4: Now you're happy, Now you're out there.

75
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:18,840
Speaker 2: Oh yeah.

76
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: My first thought is I'd like to go to his

77
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 1: Twitter page and see how many people he just gained

78
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,039
Speaker 1: and how much fundraising he gets to do off of that,

79
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:28,280
Speaker 1: because that's the era we live in.

80
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:30,840
Speaker 2: Sure, But what I had another point on that, well

81
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 2: was my other point.

82
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,480
Speaker 4: Oh but not that many years ago. Your own party

83
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 4: would have disowned you for acting like that. Yeah, they

84
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 4: wouldn't have thought it was cool. You'd have been disowned

85
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 4: by your party. You'd been you'd have been kicked off

86
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 4: any committee. No, that's not the way we act. That's

87
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 4: just you know, we live in a different are And

88
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 4: I just like I said earlier, how far will it go?

89
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 4: How when has the pendulum swung clear to the end

90
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 4: of breaking norms and you know, not following any unwritten

91
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:55,840
Speaker 4: rules anymore.

92
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 2: I just wonder how far. We have to go TBD.

93
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,479
Speaker 2: My friend, I let you know when it happens. Here's

94
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 2: how it opened, Michael hit it.

95
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 4: Come on, mister speaker, the President of the United States.

96
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 2: What clip was that number? Forty? Michael, Here's how it began.

97
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:26,840
Speaker 2: That was forty? All right? This again? Good lord? All right,

98
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:27,719
Speaker 2: play the next one.

99
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:35,160
Speaker 3: Then, Members of the United States Congress, thank you very much,

100
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 3: and to my fellow citizens, America is back.

101
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 2: That's a good opening. It is next clip.

102
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 3: Six weeks ago, I stood beneath the dome of this

103
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 3: Capitol and proclaimed the dawn of the Golden Age of America.

104
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 3: From that moment, there's been nothing but swift and unrelenting

105
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 3: action to usher in the greatest and most successful era

106
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 3: in the.

107
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 2: History of our country.

108
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 3: We have accomplished more in forty three days, and most

109
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:18,920
Speaker 3: administrations accomplished in four years or eight years.

110
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 2: And we are just getting started.

111
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,799
Speaker 4: So I was fine, and the Republicans were very pleased

112
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,239
Speaker 4: with it, and it is your typical gung ho opening

113
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 4: ninety seconds or so. But here's where it turned ugly

114
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 4: and controversial.

115
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 3: The presidential election of November fifth was a mandate like

116
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:45,720
Speaker 3: has not been seen in many decades. We won all

117
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 3: seven swing states, giving us an electoral College.

118
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 2: Victory of three hundred and twelve volts.

119
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 3: We won the popular vote by big numbers and one

120
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,159
Speaker 3: counties in our country.

121
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,719
Speaker 2: Kill him, start.

122
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 4: Him, pet him with his whole cane. So that was

123
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 4: Al Green, not the legendary soul singer, but a different

124
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 4: ancient guy. Would you have Rich Lowry's Joe candy? That

125
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 4: was so good. He's this crazed old guy who even

126
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 4: the Democrats are like, oh God, here he goes again.

127
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 2: He's one of those characters.

128
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 4: But he was standing there bellowing angrily as if Trump

129
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 4: had traversed his lawn.

130
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 2: And literally shaking his cane. Yeah.

131
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 1: Rich Lowry tweeted, Democrats are the party of the future,

132
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 1: and if you don't believe him, they have a seventy

133
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 1: seven year old man shaking his cane to prove it.

134
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 2: It was We're the party of the hip in the young.

135
00:07:55,760 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 2: I'm eighty years old shaking my cane. It was so silly.

136
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 2: It was truly entertaining.

137
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 4: And I guess what you're saying about norm breaking and

138
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 4: decency and mutual respect and that sort of thing, and

139
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 4: I value that. I am not cynical about that at all.

140
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 4: But in terms of your entertainment, I was just delighted.

141
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 2: Anyway where we're.

142
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 4: Okay, well, let me release a lion in there. I mean,

143
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 4: if the goal should just be entertained, that's Michael.

144
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 2: Lawmakers doing TikTok challenges. Oh yeah, exactly.

145
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, jumping buckets, ice water over their heads,

146
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 4: or trying to eat cinnamon or got those what else? Yeah? Yeah, right, hey,

147
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 4: I say try the lion thing once. Let's not be

148
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,839
Speaker 4: can't do guys, maybe who knows. But as a as

149
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,520
Speaker 4: I said last hour, as a snapshot of the current

150
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 4: political scene, I thought it was. It was really revealing

151
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:51,839
Speaker 4: and incredibly discouraging for Democrats. And again here's your your

152
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 4: note of caution. These things change, they move in cycles.

153
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 4: I tell you what, you want to talk about one

154
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,959
Speaker 4: organization on Earth that can screw up a good thing,

155
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 4: it's the Republican Party.

156
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 2: But so the.

157
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 4: President was just brimming with confidence all throughout the whole speech,

158
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 4: although he lost me.

159
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,599
Speaker 2: It was interminable.

160
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 4: It was the longest ever, right, longest ever yep, and

161
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 4: the second, third, fourth, and fifth longest ever were like

162
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 4: twice as long as they needed to be.

163
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 2: So it was like designed, I wouldn't do that. Tell Kaida,

164
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:26,440
Speaker 2: make them listen.

165
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 4: To them old But anyway, so the president was quite confident,

166
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 4: and the Republicans in the chamber were a bully hint and.

167
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: Did he not mostly read off a teleprompter, which means

168
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 1: somebody wrote a ninety minute speech.

169
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 4: Mostly, although in Trumpetan fashion, he departed from it to

170
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,320
Speaker 4: riff a little bit a number of times. I couldn't

171
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 4: tell you how much. I wasn't really paying attention to that,

172
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 4: but some But anyway, and then they had a number

173
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 4: of guests, including the beautiful little lad who's been fighting

174
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 4: cancer and his thing is he's always wanted to be

175
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 4: a cop, so he gets honorary deputy badges from various

176
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,199
Speaker 4: departments and Trump, we can play the tape. I think

177
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 4: we have it around here somewhere, although if our lists

178
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,199
Speaker 4: are off, Michael I can ask for them and it's

179
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 4: not going to do us any good. Oh, okay, do

180
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,680
Speaker 4: we have the little lad. There's so many clips. Somebody's

181
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 4: shouting to Michael's here if you can figure it out.

182
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 4: But anyway, just back to the snapshot thing. So you

183
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,079
Speaker 4: had all of that going on, and it was all

184
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 4: coming off very well, just in terms of political theater,

185
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 4: and the Democrats response was a a crazy old lunatic

186
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 4: shaking his cane at Trump.

187
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 2: As we've discussed b.

188
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:40,319
Speaker 4: There like dressed in colors that nobody knew and there

189
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 4: were several different colors and nobody can and then holding

190
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 4: up these dopey little signs that looked exactly like Wiley

191
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 4: coyote in the road Runner cartoons, with various elon steeles

192
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 4: or no doge or you know, not lies, not true, yeah, whatever,

193
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 4: and it just it came off as so pathetic and aimless.

194
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:04,960
Speaker 4: Oh and then the other aspect of it was and

195
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 4: Trump riffed about this in forty seven. Go ahead, and

196
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 4: I'll play forty seven. I thought it was a key

197
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:13,559
Speaker 4: home politically.

198
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:17,840
Speaker 3: This is my fifth such speech to Congress, and once

199
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 3: again I look at the Democrats in front of me,

200
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 3: and I realize there is absolutely nothing I can say

201
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 3: to make them happy, or to make them stand or

202
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 3: smile or applaud Nothing I can do.

203
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 2: I could find a cure.

204
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 3: To the most devastating disease, a disease that would wipe

205
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 3: out entire nations, or announce the answers to the greatest

206
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 3: economy and history, or the stoppage of crime to the

207
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 3: lowest levels ever recorded. And these people sitting right here

208
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 3: will not clap, will not stand, and certainly will not

209
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,920
Speaker 3: cheer for these astronomical achievements.

210
00:11:57,960 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 2: They won't do it no matter what.

211
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 3: Five five times I've been up here. It's very sad

212
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 3: and it just shouldn't be this.

213
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:10,839
Speaker 4: Well, you know, and that's plenty of that. He missed

214
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 4: a great opportunity. Not long after that he was talking,

215
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 4: he went through a list of the insane things Doges

216
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 4: found that were all, you know, pretty acquainted with at

217
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 4: this point. And he could have said, we just found

218
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,080
Speaker 4: hundreds of millions of dollars of waste of taxpayer money.

219
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 2: Why are you not.

220
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 4: Applauding stopping the waste of taxpayer money? Are you in

221
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 4: favor of wasting taxpayer money? Help me understand, you know something.

222
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 4: They could have just killed him, like for the next

223
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 4: five election cycles.

224
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 2: But he did not. Yeah, that's a good one. So

225
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 2: he had a long list of like.

226
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:56,440
Speaker 1: Transcoloring books for penguins and an arctica or various things they.

227
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:56,959
Speaker 2: Were finding me.

228
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, fifty nine million dollars for hotel rooms for a

229
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 4: lead immigrants in New York all sorts of stuff like that.

230
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 4: There are some other highlights culture stuff that is so

231
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:08,680
Speaker 4: incredibly important.

232
00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 2: I get to it in a little bit.

233
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,560
Speaker 1: I can't believe that they're they're going to continue to

234
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 1: uh cheerlead dudes participating in girls' sports based on all

235
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 1: It's just that's crazy.

236
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 2: It's just crazy.

237
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:22,959
Speaker 4: Yeah, we got more in the way any thoughts text

238
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,319
Speaker 4: line four one five KFTC.

239
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,200
Speaker 3: We're getting wokeness out of our schools and out of

240
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 3: our military, and it's already out, and it's out of

241
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 3: our society.

242
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:41,920
Speaker 2: We don't want it. Wokeness is trouble. Wokeness is bad.

243
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:43,280
Speaker 2: It's gone.

244
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,680
Speaker 3: It's gone, and we feel so much better for it,

245
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:47,559
Speaker 3: don't we do?

246
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 2: We feel better?

247
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 4: That was getting towards the end during the just riffing,

248
00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:57,679
Speaker 4: just it's fine.

249
00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 2: I'm just going to talk till I get tired of talking.

250
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 2: Section of the speech. You know what woke means. It

251
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:03,480
Speaker 2: means you're a loser.

252
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 4: So he did get into the social stuff, Jackie, were

253
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:07,680
Speaker 4: you going to jump in there before I plunge ahead

254
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 4: with the clips.

255
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 1: I was ninety minutes of the longest one anybody's ever given,

256
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 1: even longer than Bill Clinton's which has been mocked for

257
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:18,960
Speaker 1: years of being a Dronathan Trump's was longer. For whatever reason,

258
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 1: I speculated earlier that he might understand that people don't

259
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 1: watch these anymore and they're just going to live on

260
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 1: in clips. And why not put as many clips out

261
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 1: there as possible. I don't know, But Charles C. W.

262
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: Cook made the point that Thomas Jefferson set the precedent

263
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 1: of sending a written message to Congress, believing that a

264
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 1: personal delivery resembled a speech from a throne too much.

265
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 1: So we didn't want that look of a monarchy, so

266
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 1: deliver it in writing. Woodrow Wilson is the one that

267
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:51,080
Speaker 1: started it with showing up in person and ending that tradition,

268
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 1: and that's how we end up with what we had

269
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 1: last night.

270
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 4: So we're going to skip ahead a little bit, as

271
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 4: I the clock. He's talking about ending DEI and will

272
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 4: be woke no longer. Let's hear fifty to Michael.

273
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 3: We have removed the poison of critical race theory from

274
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 3: our public schools, and I signed an order making it

275
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 3: the official policy of the United States government that there

276
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 3: are only two genders, male and female.

277
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 4: And then let's jump right into fifty three because it's

278
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 4: on the same theme.

279
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 3: I also signed an executive order to ben men from

280
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 3: playing in women's sports.

281
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 2: Three years ago.

282
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 3: Peyton McNabb was an all star high school athlete, one

283
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 3: of the best, preparing for a future in college sports.

284
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 3: But when her girl's volleyball match was invaded by a male,

285
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 3: he smashed the ball so hard in Peyton's face, causing

286
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 3: traumatic brain injury, partially paralyzing her right side, and ending

287
00:15:56,400 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 3: her athletic career. It was a shot like she's never

288
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 3: seen before. She's never seen anything like it. Peyton is

289
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 3: here tonight in the gallery, and Peyton from now on,

290
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 3: schools will kick the men off the girls team or

291
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 3: they will lose all federal funding.

292
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,600
Speaker 4: I liked what Bill mcgern said in the Wall Street Journal.

293
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 4: He talks about the President saying, no matter what I do,

294
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 4: these people sitting right here, the Democrats will not clap,

295
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 4: They will not recognize it. What the American people saw

296
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 4: on their TV screens only confirmed what the President said.

297
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 4: This was underscored by the absurd site of Democratic women

298
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,120
Speaker 4: wearing pink to protest the negative effect they say mister

299
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 4: Trump's policies have had on women, and this one day

300
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 4: after not a single Democratic senator voted to protect female

301
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 4: athletes by keeping males out of women's in girls' sports.

302
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 4: All Democrats did Tuesday night was to confirm why they

303
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 4: lost in November. I believe they're going to die on

304
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 4: that hill all things. It's like eighty five to six, right,

305
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 4: it ain't going to get us an issue among things

306
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 4: coming up.

307
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 1: I'm going to start going to Katie for my medical advice.

308
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 1: She diagnosed me correctly in my sickness last week, and

309
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: I should have listened to her and much more.

310
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 4: On the way, stay with us, armstrong and getdy.

311
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 5: The Los Angeles grocery store chain Arewan is facing criticism

312
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:24,199
Speaker 5: for offering a single strawberry for nineteen dollars or for

313
00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 5: the same price they let you look at an egg.

314
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:32,800
Speaker 2: By the way, I mentioned that the other day.

315
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:34,520
Speaker 1: If you've never been to one of those grocery stores,

316
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,639
Speaker 1: if you're ever in the Los Angeles area, go to

317
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 1: one of those grocery stores.

318
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 2: It's it's unbelievable.

319
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 1: And airwon that which is nowhere spelled backwards or close

320
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:44,359
Speaker 1: to it.

321
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 2: That's where the name comes from.

322
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, name likely you gotta be a rich hippie because

323
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,440
Speaker 4: it's everything in there is super expensive, but the choices

324
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 4: are just amazing.

325
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 1: Anyway, who knows what things are going to cost here

326
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 1: in the near future. With the whole hariff battle going on,

327
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:04,159
Speaker 1: how long will that last? Well, here's old Lutnik, one

328
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,679
Speaker 1: of our new favorite guys in the in the cabinet.

329
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 1: He's the Secretary of Commerce. He was on TV just

330
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 1: a little bit ago.

331
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:15,360
Speaker 6: The President is listening to the offers from Mexico and Canada.

332
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:18,159
Speaker 6: He's thinking about trying to do something in the middle.

333
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 6: He's thinking about it. We're talking about it. We're gonna

334
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,199
Speaker 6: when I leave here, I'm gonna go talk about it

335
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 6: with him. And I think early this afternoon or this afternoon,

336
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 6: we expect to make an announcement. And my my thinking

337
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 6: is it's going to be somewhere in the middle, So

338
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,159
Speaker 6: not one hundred percent of all products and not none,

339
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,480
Speaker 6: somewhere in the middle, because I think Mexico and Canada

340
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,199
Speaker 6: are trying the best and let's see where we end up.

341
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 6: So I do think somewhere in the middle is a

342
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:44,600
Speaker 6: likely outcome.

343
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 1: So similar to the last couple of times we've had

344
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 1: big tear iff things happen, maybe like within a day,

345
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,159
Speaker 1: they're gonna announce it's off, we got what we wanted,

346
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 1: or a lot of it's off, or part of it's

347
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 1: off or whatever. I guess we'll see, right, And not surprisingly,

348
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,439
Speaker 1: the markets have at least tweaked upward a little bit

349
00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:06,160
Speaker 1: to feeling more optimistic. We'll see it'll be fine. Yeah,

350
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,400
Speaker 1: I won't, and we'll let you know at the time.

351
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 1: Just you know, it's it's funny.

352
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:12,639
Speaker 2: What am I going to do? I'll I'll react to

353
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 2: you know, I'll adjust my life accordingly.

354
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's the age of hyperbole, in the age of

355
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 4: desperation for clicks. And so, whether it's weather reports, which

356
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:23,680
Speaker 4: is one of the worst, I mean, it's like the

357
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 4: rarest thing in broadcast media is for somebody to underestimate

358
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 4: how bad a storm might be.

359
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 2: Because every storm.

360
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,600
Speaker 4: That sweeps across the nation, ABC News is the worst,

361
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,879
Speaker 4: is the killer storm that's paralyzing the Midwest or the

362
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,639
Speaker 4: East or whatever. Every storm is coming for you and

363
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,879
Speaker 4: your children, and it almost never pans out.

364
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:44,920
Speaker 2: And if it does, you know what to do? Is there?

365
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:49,200
Speaker 4: Well, nobody ever leads with it's winter and it's gonna snow, surprise, surprise,

366
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 4: And so we're probably stupid not to engage in that much.

367
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,400
Speaker 4: But the tariff thing, yeah, I could have some effect,

368
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:57,720
Speaker 4: but we'll have to see how long it lasts. And

369
00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:00,920
Speaker 4: you know, economics tends to counter alence itself and blah

370
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 4: blah blah, so we'll have.

371
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:02,360
Speaker 2: To find out.

372
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 4: Sorry, if you came here to be terrified or whatever,

373
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 4: you're not.

374
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 2: Gonna get it.

375
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 1: Other developing stories. So, Trump, during his whatever that speech

376
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,120
Speaker 1: was last night, mentions that Zelensky.

377
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 4: That's the so tac jack, the state of the ass kicking,

378
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:17,119
Speaker 4: that's what I'm calling it.

379
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:22,400
Speaker 1: Zelensky put out a statement to Trump that hey, I'm

380
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,439
Speaker 1: willing to sign the deal or whatever. I'll show up

381
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,680
Speaker 1: in a suit and apologize or something along those lines.

382
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 2: Essentially. Yeah.

383
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 4: Anyway, CIA director John Ratcliffe was on Mario Baromo's show

384
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 4: today and said, the US has paused weapons, shipments and

385
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:43,439
Speaker 4: intelligence to Ukraine. We've cut off their intelligence, which was

386
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 4: really a big part of what.

387
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 2: Our aid was.

388
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,639
Speaker 1: After the meeting in the Oval Office on Friday, Ratcliffe

389
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 1: says he looks forward to lifting the pause and working

390
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:54,160
Speaker 1: with Ukraine towards peace.

391
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:58,439
Speaker 4: Following the letter to the BOTUS. But man, that's some

392
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:04,639
Speaker 4: serious hardball and they're fighting literally for their survival, and

393
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 4: I wonder, like many people, wonder, where's the hardball toward Putin?

394
00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 2: Could be? The answer is it's just secret. It's not public.

395
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 4: I think a lot of the media class assumes that

396
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:19,360
Speaker 4: it doesn't exist at all.

397
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 2: I doubt that.

398
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 4: I certainly hope that's not true, because Putin is an

399
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 4: evil child, murdering, abducting, genocidal.

400
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 1: Lunatic, anti Christian, anti everything, anti everything but his wealth. Katie,

401
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,080
Speaker 1: congratulations on diagnosing me correctly last week.

402
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,199
Speaker 2: I diagnosed you with so many things last week. What

403
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:45,400
Speaker 2: was it you said? I had the flu?

404
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:46,879
Speaker 1: I had the flu. I went to the doctor yesterday

405
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 1: and they told me, so you were you are? You

406
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:54,199
Speaker 1: had a dead on call me doctor Green exactly. I

407
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,840
Speaker 1: didn't know this particular flu. I guess I got the

408
00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 1: current version. They have a terrible, terrible stomach that comes

409
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 1: with your whole cold symptoms.

410
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 2: See.

411
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 7: Wow, I've had the flu maybe a handful of times

412
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,920
Speaker 7: in my life, and it's always come with stomach problems.

413
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 4: Well, I don't know if I've ever had the flu before,

414
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,159
Speaker 4: so I don't have anyh Yeah, there are a lot

415
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,879
Speaker 4: of things people call the flu that isn't the flu,

416
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 4: so it kind of muddies the waters.

417
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 2: But you know, if you're feeling the you know all

418
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:24,679
Speaker 2: you're feeling ill. Oh, it's horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible. You know.

419
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:29,760
Speaker 4: I'm reminded of COVID engineered in the Wuhan Institute courtesy

420
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:34,679
Speaker 4: of doctor Fauci and what's his name, Peter Dazak, that

421
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 4: it causes a dozen different problems.

422
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 2: Weird, bizarre.

423
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,880
Speaker 4: How can one virus affect you neurologically and to give

424
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 4: you the gallup of trots, it's terrible.

425
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:46,919
Speaker 1: First of all, do you think I would have not

426
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 1: gotten the flu if I'd have gotten a flu shot?

427
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 1: Could have I avoided that week of being sick and

428
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:52,760
Speaker 1: the way I feel right now if I'd gotten the

429
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 1: flu shot.

430
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:55,120
Speaker 2: Nobody knows.

431
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,080
Speaker 4: It depends how the formulation was this year and whether

432
00:22:58,119 --> 00:22:59,919
Speaker 4: it matched the particular strain you got.

433
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 2: I'm not an anti vaxxer.

434
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 1: I'm an anti tasker in the getting myself there and

435
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 1: actually getting the shot. Just it's beyond my reach. So

436
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 1: that's main the main reason I don't get a flu

437
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,560
Speaker 1: shot every year. It's not any philosophy of any kind.

438
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 2: Right.

439
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,119
Speaker 1: The other interesting thing is I so I did the

440
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 1: day walk in care thing and went in because it'd

441
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 1: been more than ten days that I've been sick and

442
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:26,879
Speaker 1: it is starting to get worse. That's in the past

443
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:28,639
Speaker 1: in my life. If you start to get better and

444
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,879
Speaker 1: then you start to get worse, it's something that needs antibiotics.

445
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,399
Speaker 1: And they gave me antibotics, and so we'll see what happens.

446
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 1: But the doctor commented on how much he liked the

447
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:44,479
Speaker 1: way I was dressed, and hello, and just briefly, very briefly.

448
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:48,159
Speaker 1: It means it's not like he dwelled on it or

449
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 1: raised his eyebrows like that. It was just a very

450
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:56,159
Speaker 1: casual conversation. But I've never had that happen before. I

451
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 1: have no memory. This was yesterday, yesterday. I have no

452
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 1: memory of how you were addressed yesterday. I'm sorry, I'm

453
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 1: a poor co host.

454
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 4: Jeans, T shirt, jean jacket, Wow, cowboy book pretty much?

455
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:11,040
Speaker 2: Did you give him your number?

456
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 4: Because that's a that's a bit of a I don't know,

457
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,200
Speaker 4: Freddy Mercury, look there. Maybe he was sending you a

458
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:19,199
Speaker 4: little subtle message.

459
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,640
Speaker 2: I don't know. There was somebody on Twitter. I think

460
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 2: I did.

461
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 1: I mention this on Twitter the other day that said

462
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 1: I saw jacket the air. He is dressed very gay.

463
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:30,359
Speaker 2: Wow, that's a nice comment.

464
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 1: But then I but so the reason I bring this

465
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:34,919
Speaker 1: up is then I went to the pharmacy and the

466
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 1: twenty year old working there at the pharmacy said, I

467
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 1: really like your style.

468
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 2: I love the way you're dressed all the time.

469
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 1: When you're here, TWITTER do it at this was a girl,

470
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:46,880
Speaker 1: But I just saw it. I must be I gotta

471
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:51,040
Speaker 1: be trying too hard or something, or or or I've

472
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,200
Speaker 1: got a bit of a look at that sick, sad

473
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,359
Speaker 1: old man. Bless his heart, let's say something.

474
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,959
Speaker 4: I think it might be that, you know what, if

475
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,960
Speaker 4: pities all there is available, I'll take pity. Let's just

476
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,240
Speaker 4: brighten his day somehow today because he looks like he's

477
00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 4: really up against it.

478
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:10,160
Speaker 2: Wow. I don't know. I just thought it was odd

479
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:14,520
Speaker 2: that had happened like twice in the span of an hour. Yeah,

480
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,720
Speaker 2: sure is going on there? Well, how do maybe go

481
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 2: with that? Lucky?

482
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:22,919
Speaker 1: The people are spoken so so you don't have an

483
00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:24,000
Speaker 1: opinion on the flu shot though?

484
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 2: Do you get the flu shot over here? Katie? Do

485
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 2: you get the flu shot of you? I have never

486
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:28,119
Speaker 2: had a flu shot.

487
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:31,160
Speaker 4: I've had one young, it doesn't matter. I've had one

488
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 4: in my life and I probably will never get another

489
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:35,480
Speaker 4: one again. The one I got was we mentioned it

490
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 4: on the air and somebody stopped by the station and

491
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 4: gave it to me. And I'm not sure it was

492
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:40,960
Speaker 4: a nurse or if it was actually the flu vaccine,

493
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,360
Speaker 4: because we didn't check their credentials. She just came into

494
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 4: the studio and gave me a shot. Well you're blind

495
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:48,199
Speaker 4: for a week, so that made me wonder if you know,

496
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 4: I don't know, maybe that's the only flu shot I've

497
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 4: ever had.

498
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 2: You do get it every year, Joe, almost every year? Yeah.

499
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've got a great doctor and he's in favor

500
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 4: of it, and he sees a straight shooter, so that's fine.

501
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 4: All doctors are in favorite of it, and I don't

502
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 4: know if I've ever heard anybody who's not in favorite.

503
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 4: It's it's just it's a bit of a guessing ging

504
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 4: because they formulate it before they understand precisely what strains

505
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:11,200
Speaker 4: are going to be ware, do you have any idea

506
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 4: what maybe you could look this up gidting what percentage

507
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 4: of people get the flu shot?

508
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 1: Do most people do it? Or to the vast majority

509
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 1: of people not. I don't actually even know.

510
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:21,359
Speaker 2: Again, it varies a great deal by age. Okay.

511
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 7: According to the Google, forty five percent adults age eighteen and.

512
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 4: Older get the flu shot. Okay, so nearly half of

513
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 4: all adults get the flu shot.

514
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:30,399
Speaker 2: That's interesting.

515
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 4: ID seventy five percent sixty plus. I did not know that, Michael,

516
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:36,479
Speaker 4: Do you get it? No?

517
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm speaking of which yah arek junior fans areund.

518
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 2: I had a.

519
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 7: Doctor's appointment last week and they asked me. They said, oh,

520
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,640
Speaker 7: you're due for your COVID shot. I'm like, oh what,

521
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:51,240
Speaker 7: I'm no fakes, I'm good my COVID shot. Yeah, you're

522
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,639
Speaker 7: due for your COVID vaccine. I'm like, no, I'm not.

523
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 4: You're due for a slap and please click eighteen Michael, eighteen.

524
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 8: It's been a rolic host following the Pope's health crisis,

525
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 8: because a couple of days ago we were told that

526
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 8: the Pope was stable, that we'd had of improvement, and

527
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 8: now we hear of these crises. The Pope, according to

528
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:15,200
Speaker 8: the Vatican, had an accumulation of mucus that caused these

529
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 8: problems that had to be aspirated. Now Francis has been

530
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 8: in hospital for eighteen days battling pneumonia in both lungs.

531
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,120
Speaker 4: On this story, Similarly, if I had died, Joulda had

532
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 4: to get a new co host, and you'd just seen

533
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 4: white pups of smoke when he finally chose one, right,

534
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 4: I feared it was an aom an accumulation of mucus,

535
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,639
Speaker 4: and sure enough it is. Man, Well, I hope he's okay,

536
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 4: even though I hate his politics, the pope.

537
00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:40,719
Speaker 2: But I don't want him to die.

538
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 1: But I do too, But simly so, then we'd go

539
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 1: through that whole choosing a pulp thing.

540
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 4: And right up there with the Academy awards. To me,

541
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:53,159
Speaker 4: I just well, I was That's kind of what I

542
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:56,240
Speaker 4: was going to bring up. Has it lost some of

543
00:27:56,280 --> 00:28:02,920
Speaker 4: the reverence that it once had the pope choosing Here's

544
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,199
Speaker 4: the way I would answer it. It has lost the

545
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 4: automatic reference reverence that it once had. It could be

546
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:13,399
Speaker 4: the Catholic Church finds itself a really good, smart wise pope,

547
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 4: and given the enormity of the Catholic Church and its

548
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,919
Speaker 4: importance in many societies, that could that could be a

549
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 4: force for good, I think, or maybe.

550
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 2: At least cleaning up some of the bad.

551
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:27,200
Speaker 4: If they go with another communist uh South American communist

552
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 4: culture warrior exactly, then not so good, not so much.

553
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,880
Speaker 1: A little more Pope John Paul, the second little less

554
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:35,160
Speaker 1: whatever this guy's name is.

555
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, with a little more aggression toward the uh, the

556
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 4: child getting rid of the child molesters. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

557
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 4: no kidding, yeah, go ahead, Well nothing uh came across

558
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:52,720
Speaker 4: one of those great government waste stories yesterday. And this

559
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 4: is not some Elon exaggeration, as a lot of things

560
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 4: Elon has mentioned have turned out.

561
00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 1: He's taken down the tweets. This for real, and it's

562
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,840
Speaker 1: so damn maddening. Maybe we'll get to that in hour three,

563
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 1: but it's one of those it's just like, no, how

564
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 1: would you not be for doge if they overshoot? Fine,

565
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:11,760
Speaker 1: we'll add it back in later when you hear some

566
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:13,360
Speaker 1: of these stories. And we got one of those for you.

567
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:17,600
Speaker 4: And coming up in a story that is less shocking

568
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 4: than anything I've ever heard, Americans trust in mainstream media

569
00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 4: is at its lowest point.

570
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 2: In over fifty years.

571
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 1: I gasped and clutched my pearls. That is coming up next.

572
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 9: So there you go, another two hours we'll never get back.

573
00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:38,600
Speaker 9: I would like to apologize to our audience for making

574
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:42,320
Speaker 9: them watch it. That's time you all could have spent

575
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 9: with your family, not eating eggs. And Trump's first address

576
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,640
Speaker 9: to Congress was much like his first six weeks, filled

577
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 9: with useful eyes and applauded by useless idiots.

578
00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:04,680
Speaker 4: Wow, Stephen Colbert, fine, Stevie Boy, make no attempt though, to.

579
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 2: You know, court at least the.

580
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 4: Country who doesn't feel that least at least at least

581
00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 4: half yeah, yeah, yeah, So that's entertainment. Obviously, allegedly, it's

582
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:25,840
Speaker 4: an attempt at entertainment. Okay, that's not the news media

583
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 4: per se, but some of that cultural juice is absolutely

584
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:36,640
Speaker 4: all over the news media too, and not shockingly, recent

585
00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 4: Gallop survey on Americans trusted news media revealed we don't.

586
00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 4: Although some of the numbers behind the numbers, and I'm

587
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 4: not kidding, are really really interesting.

588
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 6: But.

589
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 2: They go through a little historical perspective.

590
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 4: In nineteen seventy two, sixty eight percent trusted the media

591
00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 4: either a great deal or a fair amount.

592
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 2: Sixty eight percent in.

593
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:59,680
Speaker 4: What year nineteen seventy two seven an all time high

594
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 4: of seventy two percent in nineteen seventy six.

595
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 2: Wow, post Watergate.

596
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 4: Well yeah, in the wake of Watergate, and honestly, you know,

597
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 4: the pretty good investigative journalism that was done through that

598
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:16,480
Speaker 4: and then the the Ford v. Carter election, But that

599
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:18,600
Speaker 4: was the high water mark, seventy two percent in nineteen

600
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 4: seventy six. Fast forward to the year two thousand, we're

601
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 4: down to fifty one percent. Four years later, forty four percent.

602
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,480
Speaker 4: Then it waffled a little bit, but last listen to

603
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 4: the last several years and twenty eighteen it was forty

604
00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 4: five percent. Trusted the mainstream media a lot or some Okay,

605
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 4: that's because you're a liberal and you like hearing what

606
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 4: you want to hear because it thinks it's ridiculous. Forty

607
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 4: percent in twenty twenty, thirty six percent in twenty twenty one,

608
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 4: thirty four percent a year later, thirty two percent a

609
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:55,160
Speaker 4: year later, and thirty one percent last year Joe Biden's

610
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 4: last year in office, which was.

611
00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 2: The best version of Joe Biden ever. And if you

612
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:00,520
Speaker 2: don't believe it, f you.

613
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 1: Or whatever, the numbers are below that, you know, the

614
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:09,160
Speaker 1: the chunk that's going to vote for a Democratic president.

615
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 1: So they don't even like what they're getting fed like

616
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:14,520
Speaker 1: at least ten percent of people.

617
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, roughly, although don't forget that we have independence as well.

618
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 4: But anyway, it is ticking down, down, down, and to

619
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:30,720
Speaker 4: just rubbish level, whereas a third oh yeah, my goodness, yeah,

620
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 4: we don't even need to explain why. Although the Mummy

621
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 4: being perfectly fit for office, then the minute he's out

622
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 4: of office, the Jake Tappers of the world rushing to say,

623
00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:43,360
Speaker 4: do you guys want to know the truth? He was

624
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:50,240
Speaker 4: old and senile all along. Oh thanks Jake. Anyway, Whereas

625
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 4: about a third of US adults say they have no

626
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 4: trust at all in the mass media, sixty percent of

627
00:32:55,960 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 4: Republicans hold that view of you that so I particular,

628
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 4: literally sharp increase between twenty fifteen and twenty seventeen. Funny,

629
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 4: I can't think of a single thing that happened during

630
00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 4: that period that would erode trust in media other than

631
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:15,040
Speaker 4: the Russian collusion hoax. Lack of trust is also up

632
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 4: sharply among Independence it's now forty two percent, while it

633
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 4: continues to be low six percent this year among Democrats.

634
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 2: Wow, so it's.

635
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:32,520
Speaker 4: Sixty percent of Republicans, forty two percent of Independence, and

636
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:37,480
Speaker 4: six percent among Democrats. If I were to characterize those numbers,

637
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:46,720
Speaker 4: I would say that Democrats are seven times more gullible

638
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:54,960
Speaker 4: or ideological than even independence. Gallup also found that younger

639
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,320
Speaker 4: generations are less trusting in the mass media as well.

640
00:33:57,440 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 2: That's good, I don't roch to new good job, oh Son,

641
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 2: good decision.

642
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 4: People younger than fifty are much less trusting in the

643
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:07,480
Speaker 4: news media than people aged fifty and older, particularly the

644
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 4: oldest Americans.

645
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:13,920
Speaker 1: That's tough though, I mean, these numbers are tough to

646
00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:18,439
Speaker 1: I mean, on one hand, I'm very happy that more

647
00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:23,880
Speaker 1: people have realized that mainstream media is often spinning things

648
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:27,319
Speaker 1: at best and flat out lying to you worse. On

649
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,400
Speaker 1: the other hand, the fact that people are then going

650
00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:37,200
Speaker 1: to even more distorted news sources and leaving mainstream media

651
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 1: is not helpful.

652
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 4: No. No, that's a really interesting point. And where people

653
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 4: have gone or what they've done with their mistrust is

654
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 4: a great, great question.

655
00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:49,319
Speaker 2: It's not entirely true what I just said.

656
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 1: I mean, there's a lot of people going to the

657
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:54,000
Speaker 1: Dispatch or various sub stack writers and stuff like that.

658
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 1: They're doing really good job of trying to call balls

659
00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:58,480
Speaker 1: and strikes, regardless of their ideology.

660
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:05,440
Speaker 2: Are they come here, duh. But but they're not. It's not,

661
00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:09,319
Speaker 2: you know, as big as I mean.

662
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 1: I could name a lot of different things, whether it's

663
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,680
Speaker 1: Tucker Carlson on the right side of things or whoever

664
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:16,799
Speaker 1: on the left side of things.

665
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 2: Get a lot of earballs.

666
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:26,840
Speaker 4: Yep, yeah, for better and worse, Armstrong and Getty
