So there's a shock, 130 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: but noing that please Putin going to the front and 131 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 1: military fatigues and ordering his generals to take back every 132 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 1: last square foot of ground that the Ukrainians took. 133 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 2: That's not a guy who's ready to engage in a ceasefire. 134 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 2: And he was making it very clear by wearing his 135 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 2: military fatigues. 136 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, not even close. And then it's bent on conquest period. 137 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: And then John, it's because NATO did this in twenty 138 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 1: twenty two. They had an agreement we will blow up 139 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: that myth later. And then yesterday Germany put out a paper. 140 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: They're intelligence agencies like our CIA or I don't know 141 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,280 Speaker 1: what you call them in Germany, GESTAPA or whatever they're called. 142 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 2: I think they've updated it, but go on. 143 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,279 Speaker 1: They released a report saying they're eighty to ninety percent 144 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: certain the COVID came out of the lab in Wuhan. 145 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,920 Speaker 1: It was a lab league of course, is right, but 146 00:06:55,560 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: but it should be just enough.

That shouldn't even be a conversation anymore. 148 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,840 Speaker 1: It's a crackpot conspiracy theory.

Get the podcast Armstrong and Getty on demand. 350 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 2: Armstrong and Getty. 351 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: Caitlin Clark returned for season two of the WNBA Jacked. 352 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: She apparently spent the entire offseason lifting weights. Looks like 353 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: a different person tired of getting beat around. Ain't gonna 354 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:45,880 Speaker 1: happen this year?

The green new 359 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 3: scam ends as the EPA does. It's hard to usher 360 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 3: in the golden age of American success. 361 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 1: Which includes, by the way, doing away with a whole 362 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 1: bunch of mandatory electric car stuff that Ford and GM 363 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 1: and those companies actually hated. They couldn't say it out 364 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,119 Speaker 1: loud because they'd have been on the wrong side of 365 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 1: the administration, the Biden administration. 366 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 2: But I know somebody who runs a dealership, so it 367 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 2: was just killing. 368 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 1: Them having to put in all these electric chargers that 369 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 1: nobody was ever gonna use, and have a certain number 370 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: of electric cars in a lot that nobody was buying. 371 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:33,399 Speaker 1: And you know, speaking of tariffs are attacks on the consumer. 372 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 1: Who do you think pays for all that stuff? They again, 373 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:37,960 Speaker 1: it's got to get paid for somehow, So it jacks 374 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: up the prices of other vehicles, obviously. And it's worth 375 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,639 Speaker 1: pointing out that that dealership wasn't in Lincoln, Nebraska. It 376 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 1: was in northern California, for the love of really good point. 377 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,920 Speaker 1: So Leezeldon of the EPA, who he just heard, has 378 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 1: been publishing editorials as well. 379 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 2: I will quote briefly from one. 380 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:58,119 Speaker 1: Yesterday was the most consequential day of deregulation in American history. 381 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 2: Wow ur rah. Alongside President Trump. 382 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 1: We announced that the EPA will take thirty one actions 383 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,399 Speaker 1: to advance as Day one executive orders and power the 384 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 1: Great American comeback by overhauling massive rules on the endangerment, 385 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 1: finding the social cost of carbon and similar issues. We 386 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 1: are driving a dagger through the heart of climate change 387 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 1: religion and ushering in America's golden age. These actions will 388 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 1: roll back trillions of dollars in regulatory costs and hidden 389 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 1: taxes just as a result. Yes, a quick aside on that, 390 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,479 Speaker 1: you know, the carbon neutrality and all that different sort 391 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: of stuff. 392 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,640 Speaker 2: What percentage of people care about that? Do you think 393 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 2: you know? I only know my own. 394 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 1: Orbit, but I feel like it's almost nobody. And so 395 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:41,119 Speaker 1: many things I buy, airline tickets, a pair of genes, whatever, 396 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,120 Speaker 1: it's got some sort of carbon score on there. 397 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:44,920 Speaker 2: How many people care about that? 398 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 1: And even if it were a significant percentage of people, 399 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 1: I would ask the question, as they would be rational 400 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 1: human being, Is it going to do any good? Of course, 401 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 1: honest effort and expense to what end see, I would 402 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 1: guess would be sink digit So people that give a 403 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 1: crap about that or even think about it for a second. 404 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 1: But I didn't go to public school being told climate 405 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 1: change was the biggest problem in the world every single 406 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 1: class of my life, like your kids, my kids, everybody 407 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 1: else's kids have done to the point that climate anxiety 408 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:20,399 Speaker 1: is anxiety is a significant source of angst for kids. 409 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:26,719 Speaker 1: Don't get me started about educators these days. As a result, 410 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 1: writes zeld In, the cost of living for American families 411 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,440 Speaker 1: will decrease in essentials such as buying a car, heating 412 00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,199 Speaker 1: your home, and operating business will become more affordable. Well, 413 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,920 Speaker 1: we'll see with the tariffs, but our actions will also 414 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:40,879 Speaker 1: reignite American manufacturing, spreading economic benefits to communities, and that 415 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 1: he makes clear that the EPA will continue to protect 416 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:48,360 Speaker 1: human health in the environment well unleashing America's full potential. 417 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 1: And he touches on the illegal Clean Power Plan two 418 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 1: point zero particulate matter crap electric vehicle mandates that Jack mentioned. 419 00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,919 Speaker 1: Instead of forcing Americans to buy expensive vehicles they need, 420 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 1: their want, or can keep powered up, we are restoring 421 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 1: choice to consumers and bringing automaking jobs back home, in 422 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 1: line with our Great America Comeback initiative. And then he 423 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 1: touches on energy dominance, which stands at the center of 424 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 1: America's resurgence. Amen to that, but says, look, it's gonna 425 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 1: be clean. We're going to be smart about it, but 426 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 1: we're not going to follow the climate cult. Having said that, 427 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,639 Speaker 1: I thought this was so interesting David Zimmerman writing a 428 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 1: piece for The National Review entitled Environmentalist hysterics fall on 429 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: deaf Years in the new Trump Era, And he doesn't 430 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 1: just mean in the White House. He points out that 431 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: environmental activists are sounding their frantic alarm like always in 432 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: response to what leez Elden's doing, but this time around, 433 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 1: he writes, their ap apocalyptic warnings are not generating the 434 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 1: public fanfare they did four years ago. Since taking office, 435 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 1: Trump has withdrawn from the Paris Climate Accord again, reopened 436 00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: six hundred and twenty five million acres of federal waters 437 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 1: in Alaskan Land for oil and gas leasing, pause the 438 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,640 Speaker 1: approval of new offshore wind projects that are stupid and ugly. 439 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 1: The Parish Climate Accord, which other countries signed but didn't 440 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: follow through on their obligations. 441 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,639 Speaker 2: So yay, you get credit for signing it. Whatever. 442 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like signing the Paris Exercise Accord, the pledges 443 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 1: you'll go to the gym three times a week, but 444 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 1: you don't have to. 445 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 2: I mean, you just sign it and then claim you 446 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 2: signed it. But this is the really interesting part. 447 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 1: Environmental organizations are, of course rushing to accuse the administration 448 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 1: of jeopardizing humanity's future, but their most prominent and well 449 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 1: healed backers don't seem to be on board in the 450 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 1: same way they were during Trump's first term, and he 451 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:43,359 Speaker 1: mentions Jeff Bezos, who kicked in ten billion dollars of 452 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 1: his own money to launch the Bezos Earth Fund in 453 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. Now he and his fellow billionaires have stayed 454 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 1: silent on it. But more significantly, the American public seems 455 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,959 Speaker 1: to be over the be afraid be afright craze. Well, 456 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,440 Speaker 1: there's broad support for certain climate pol us. He's on 457 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 1: both sides of the aisle. Of course, Americans tend to 458 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: diverge when asked about their emotional reactions to news involving 459 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 1: climate change. Fifty one percent of respondents say they feel 460 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 1: suspicious of the groups and people pushing for climate action. 461 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:18,719 Speaker 1: According to Pew Research, just over half they hear oh 462 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: global warming will do us all or climate change, and 463 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 1: more than half barely say my immediate reaction is suspicion. Additionally, additionally, 464 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 1: forty eight percent say they feel confused by all the 465 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 1: information about the politically divisive issue. The same survey shows 466 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 1: a split thirty four percent say climate policies help the 467 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,400 Speaker 1: US economy, thirty four percent say hurt, thirty percent say 468 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 1: they make no difference. 469 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 2: How can they possibly think they help the economy? I 470 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 2: know it's crazy. 471 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 1: Well, long term, otherwise everybody will be on fire and 472 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:56,399 Speaker 1: the oceans will swallow up the entire United States. 473 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:57,920 Speaker 2: So yes, it will help the economy. 474 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 1: And finally, this much less urgency around the issue, particularly 475 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 1: among young adults. Half of Americans between eighteen and thirty 476 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: four view climate change is a very serious problem. But 477 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 1: that's down seventeen points good in four years, according to 478 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: a monmouthly Wake Up Children. The same demographic also showed 479 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,360 Speaker 1: a precipitous drop when asked about support for government action 480 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,720 Speaker 1: to reduce climate change. Sixty two percent of the dewey 481 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 1: eyed youngsters are in support, but that's compared with eighty 482 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 1: percent three years ago, at eighteen percent drop. So anyway, 483 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 1: there are a bunch of more statistics, but they essentially 484 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:35,159 Speaker 1: all point to the same thing. 485 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 2: And I wanted to get to this. 486 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 1: The top ten catastrophic climate predictions that failed long history, 487 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: dating back to the nineteen seventies. Number one in nineteen 488 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:50,920 Speaker 1: seventy s Dylan Ripley, a wildlife conservationists who served as secretary. 489 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:54,119 Speaker 2: Of the Smithsonian Institute. That's pretty loft. 490 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: Sure warned that seventy five to eighty percent of species 491 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 1: on Earth would be tinked by the year nineteen ninety five. 492 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 1: This is the guy only think that was a sixth 493 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: by nineteen ninety five was my hair. In nineteen seventy, 494 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,879 Speaker 1: Kenneth wat, a cologist and professor at the University of 495 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:19,720 Speaker 1: California Davis, famously warned there won't be any more crude oil, 496 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,400 Speaker 1: and none of our land will be usable for agriculture, 497 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 1: and the world would be eleven degrees colder by the 498 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 1: year two thousand. Yeah, I've told this falls. I've told 499 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:33,159 Speaker 1: this story before, me telling people because I learned it 500 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:37,199 Speaker 1: in college. Michael, get the buzzer. We need the buzzer now. 501 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,639 Speaker 1: We wouldn't be driving any cars on gas by like 502 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,200 Speaker 1: nineteen ninety two or something like that, because that's what 503 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: I learned in college.
