WEBVTT - Sane-O-Force 0:00:01.960 --> 0:00:06.280 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George 0:00:06.320 --> 0:00:11.000 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty Armstrong and 0:00:11.080 --> 0:00:24.919 Jetty and no Hee Armstrong and Getty. So I just 0:00:24.960 --> 0:00:27.920 thought this was an interesting little insight to where we 0:00:28.000 --> 0:00:30.479 are not surprising. We've talked about it a lot with 0:00:32.360 --> 0:00:36.640 the current president still happened seventy five days left as 0:00:36.760 --> 0:00:39.640 leader of the free world. These are the jokes they 0:00:39.680 --> 0:00:43.040 opened with on Morning Joe on MSNBC Today. 0:00:43.159 --> 0:00:45.960 President Biden addressed the nation for the first time since 0:00:46.000 --> 0:00:49.120 Trump won the election. Democrats are like, well, I guess 0:00:49.159 --> 0:00:50.280 at this point, we can let him. 0:00:50.120 --> 0:00:54.800 Speak again, let him tell, well, let's God. 0:00:54.720 --> 0:00:58.120 Help during his peace Biden said, you can love your 0:00:58.160 --> 0:01:01.640 country only when you win. Then he said, but since 0:01:01.680 --> 0:01:03.160 I didn't win or lose, I can do whatever the 0:01:03.200 --> 0:01:03.639 hell I want. 0:01:03.760 --> 0:01:06.640 So, I mean, it doesn't matter. I'm inviting that baby's 0:01:06.720 --> 0:01:07.080 leg hair. 0:01:08.360 --> 0:01:11.360 Biden also try to comfort Democrats by saying, the America 0:01:11.480 --> 0:01:14.200 of your dreams is calling for you to get back up, 0:01:15.600 --> 0:01:17.320 and Biden said, now, excuse me, I need to go 0:01:17.440 --> 0:01:17.880 take a nap. 0:01:19.840 --> 0:01:22.920 While many expected a speech about the peaceful transfer of 0:01:23.000 --> 0:01:25.920 power and moving on old Joe had another idea. He 0:01:26.040 --> 0:01:29.839 had a major announcement up his sleeve. I'm saying a race. 0:01:33.160 --> 0:01:37.840 We're gonna tell him, man, So so is that just 0:01:37.920 --> 0:01:40.480 where we are? It's it's just we just openly mock 0:01:40.680 --> 0:01:43.560 the leader of the free world, or the leader of 0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:48.640 the world really for being old and out of it 0:01:48.800 --> 0:01:51.840 and irrelevant. And I mean even the left is doing that. 0:01:52.040 --> 0:01:55.320 It's just we all know, he's just his mind doesn't work, 0:01:55.360 --> 0:01:57.440 and he's tired, and he barely knows what day it is, 0:01:57.440 --> 0:01:59.520 and he doesn't even know who won the election. But ah, 0:01:59.680 --> 0:02:02.480 isn't it? Is that just that seems that I don't know. 0:02:02.560 --> 0:02:06.800 I guess that's the way we're gonna wrap this up. Yeah, yeah, 0:02:07.120 --> 0:02:11.000 that is exhibit A in one of the two really 0:02:11.120 --> 0:02:15.840 interesting tectonic plate shifts that I think this election had 0:02:15.880 --> 0:02:19.040 made clear. One is what the hell is the Democratic 0:02:19.080 --> 0:02:21.000 Party and can they reform themselves? But the other one 0:02:21.120 --> 0:02:25.120 is new media versus old media, the world of podcasting, 0:02:25.240 --> 0:02:29.880 alternative media like ourselves for instance, and the alphabet networks 0:02:29.919 --> 0:02:32.280 and the cable news guys and the rest of it. 0:02:33.280 --> 0:02:36.400 And a case has been made quite eloquently, and to me, 0:02:36.639 --> 0:02:38.480 I mean it's just the jury doesn't even need to 0:02:38.680 --> 0:02:42.400 retire to the jury room. That the mainstream media was 0:02:42.520 --> 0:02:46.280 utterly dishonest about Joe Biden and his senility, and then 0:02:46.440 --> 0:02:49.880 when it became so inescapably clear, everybody had to admit it. 0:02:49.960 --> 0:02:54.320 They immediately switched to the incredibly unpopular, never elected to 0:02:54.440 --> 0:02:58.519 a national office. Kamala Harris is a political genius and 0:02:58.560 --> 0:03:02.919 everybody knows it, and she's below and that people noticed it, 0:03:03.120 --> 0:03:08.359 and the legacy media is hurting for certain. But on 0:03:08.480 --> 0:03:14.359 the other as it's dressed by uh, Jeff Bezos that 0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:17.400 his first name. Yeah, for some reason, I didn't sell 0:03:17.480 --> 0:03:20.000 right Bezos in the Washington Post right before the election. 0:03:20.120 --> 0:03:22.360 You know, you change things, We're going to be complete, 0:03:22.440 --> 0:03:26.079 completely irrelevant and dominated by podcasts and whatnot. So he 0:03:26.200 --> 0:03:29.320 gets it, and there's a chance some good changes come 0:03:29.400 --> 0:03:31.919 out of all this. Yeah. If I had a choice between, 0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:33.680 say I had some sort of cause that I really 0:03:33.760 --> 0:03:35.360 really wanted to pitch, or I wanted to get elected 0:03:35.440 --> 0:03:37.400 to something, and you gave me a choice between the 0:03:37.440 --> 0:03:42.200 front page of the Watch Washington Post or Joe Rogan, please, right, 0:03:42.280 --> 0:03:43.880 I wouldn't even think about it. I wouldn't even ask 0:03:43.920 --> 0:03:50.120 anybody's advice. So that's one of the interesting tectonic plates 0:03:50.560 --> 0:03:54.080 shifts that's become apparent and will be interesting to see. Oh, 0:03:54.120 --> 0:03:55.760 by the way, if you get a chance to recommend 0:03:55.960 --> 0:03:59.640 the Armstrong You Getty show or podcast of friends, do it, 0:03:59.680 --> 0:04:01.880 which I that'd be lovely. We're in dire strait, so 0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:07.800 oh my lord, my wife she spends and she spent kidding. 0:04:07.840 --> 0:04:10.320 She's one of the most practical women who's ever existed 0:04:10.360 --> 0:04:13.920 on the planet. God bless her anyway. The other super 0:04:14.000 --> 0:04:18.920 interesting tectonic shift is what is the Democratic Party? And 0:04:19.120 --> 0:04:21.920 I use the term the say no crats last hour 0:04:22.240 --> 0:04:25.000 because I've come across a couple of died in the 0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:30.000 world Democrats, including maybe we'll start with this. I don't 0:04:30.000 --> 0:04:31.840 know how to pronounce the man's name. It's are you 0:04:32.080 --> 0:04:36.839 why his last name is to Shera? But is that Roy? 0:04:37.000 --> 0:04:39.200 Is that like a Hispanic version of Roy? Or is 0:04:39.240 --> 0:04:41.839 it Ruy or I don't know. So no, no disrespect 0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:43.960 to mister Riff for not knowing how to pronounce his name. 0:04:44.040 --> 0:04:51.040 But his his sub stack blog article column thing he 0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:58.200 is called the Liberal Patriot and his article today is 0:04:58.279 --> 0:05:00.560 the shattering of the Democratic Coalition and it's time to 0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:04.080 face the fact. And man is he thorough. He goes 0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:08.839 through well, he starts with the whole the obligatory calling 0:05:08.920 --> 0:05:13.719 your opponents fascists and Nazis, and how ugly and stupid 0:05:13.800 --> 0:05:16.360 that is as a strategy, and then he goes into 0:05:16.520 --> 0:05:24.760 just an astounding set of statistics about how Harris underperformed 0:05:24.839 --> 0:05:28.120 Biden among men and women. The reason there was such 0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:32.039 a big gender gap was, well, she performed Biden way 0:05:32.160 --> 0:05:34.840 worse among men than she underperformed among women. But she 0:05:34.960 --> 0:05:40.200 underformed underperformed both and Blacks and Hispanics and Asian Americans 0:05:40.400 --> 0:05:43.440 and young people and except for the sixty five plus 0:05:43.560 --> 0:05:48.720 woman crowd, old people, everybody, but like middle aged and 0:05:49.160 --> 0:05:53.640 white college aged educated women. I mean, like everybody, but 0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:58.960 that group that is so enamored with calling everybody Nazis 0:05:59.480 --> 0:06:04.080 and totally into critical race theory and transgender. You know, 0:06:04.520 --> 0:06:08.479 men can be birthing persons, menstruating little boys. That crowd, 0:06:08.880 --> 0:06:12.040 I mean, that's like the only ones. And then he 0:06:12.240 --> 0:06:16.719 gets too and this is why I coin the term canocrats. 0:06:17.680 --> 0:06:20.400 He writes, here's an idea to start with, have every 0:06:20.480 --> 0:06:25.480 democrat ostentatiously say they subscribe to the following principles, and 0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:28.279 he says these principles would signal to normy voters, particularly 0:06:28.360 --> 0:06:30.760 working class voters of all races, the Democrats values and 0:06:30.800 --> 0:06:33.640 priorities are not so different from theirs. So prerequisite for 0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:35.880 getting these voters to listen to Democrats pitch and take 0:06:35.920 --> 0:06:38.880 it seriously. So here it is every Democrat has to 0:06:39.000 --> 0:06:43.280 say they subscribe to the following principles. Equality of opportunity 0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:46.880 is a fundamental American principle. Equality of outcome is not. 0:06:49.040 --> 0:06:51.160 America is not perfect, but it is good to be 0:06:51.279 --> 0:06:54.760 patriotic and proud of this country. Well, I see, I 0:06:54.880 --> 0:06:56.840 agree with this stuff, But like that first one, you're 0:06:56.920 --> 0:07:02.000 never going to get a Democratic candidate or people running 0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:04.440 for the nomination to say that out loud, not a chance. 0:07:06.000 --> 0:07:09.360 Then the Democratic Party will die. That's his point. The 0:07:09.560 --> 0:07:12.720 only way the Democratic Party saves itself is by and 0:07:13.040 --> 0:07:15.880 there's no reason to say go back to because you know, 0:07:15.960 --> 0:07:20.120 there's no such thing as going back to restore the 0:07:20.520 --> 0:07:24.080 core principles of America to the core principles of the 0:07:24.160 --> 0:07:27.040 Democratic Party, or they will die. What did I see? 0:07:27.520 --> 0:07:29.400 I mean fitting in with that a little bit. Elon 0:07:29.440 --> 0:07:32.560 tweeted it out yesterday, I think the number was Kamala 0:07:32.640 --> 0:07:37.680 had something like seventy five billionaires on her side, and 0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:41.280 you know, everybody acts like Elon's the only billionaire and 0:07:41.960 --> 0:07:44.400 he put the he wait in for Trump and that 0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:46.240 made the difference. And the billionaires don't want to pay 0:07:46.240 --> 0:07:50.240 their fair share. Okay, But back to to SHARE's list. 0:07:50.520 --> 0:07:52.840 Discrimination and racism are bad, but they are not the 0:07:52.920 --> 0:07:56.760 cause of all disparities in American society. Racial achievement gaps 0:07:56.800 --> 0:07:58.520 are bad and we should seek to close them. However, 0:07:58.640 --> 0:08:01.000 they are not just due to race, and standards of 0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:05.000 high achievement should be maintained for people of all races. 0:08:05.280 --> 0:08:08.640 Do you hear that California? You hear that Oregon, Washington 0:08:08.800 --> 0:08:11.760 eliminating any sort of test to get a high school diploma. 0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:15.600 No one is completely without bias, but calling all white 0:08:15.600 --> 0:08:18.880 people racists who benefit from white privilege in American society 0:08:18.880 --> 0:08:22.720 as a white supremacist society is not right or fair. God, 0:08:22.760 --> 0:08:25.200 I hope this is dead? Is it dead? Is the 0:08:25.320 --> 0:08:30.160 whole anti racist Ebram Kenny thing? Is it over? Was 0:08:30.240 --> 0:08:33.199 it just an unfortunate blip that I had to live 0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:36.719 through where you talk about crap like white privilege? And 0:08:36.800 --> 0:08:38.600 the more you deny your white privilege, the more it's 0:08:38.640 --> 0:08:42.319 proof you've got it, and all that crap. I sure 0:08:42.920 --> 0:08:45.520 hope it will be eventually. But you know, as I 0:08:45.840 --> 0:08:48.839 have pointed out before, the problem is that we've almost 0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:52.400 got the opposite problem of like the Japanese soldiers who 0:08:52.440 --> 0:08:55.079 hadn't heard about the surrender and we're stuck in the 0:08:55.160 --> 0:08:57.920 jungles with their guns waiting to fight again. We've got 0:08:57.960 --> 0:09:00.760 the opposite thing. We have tens of that hundred millions 0:09:01.320 --> 0:09:04.600 of young people being churned out of an education system 0:09:04.880 --> 0:09:09.040 that is teaching this stuff one hundred percent as much 0:09:09.080 --> 0:09:12.560 as they were two three, four years ago. Everybody else 0:09:13.000 --> 0:09:16.800 has realized, oh, this is poison and it's wrong, but 0:09:17.040 --> 0:09:21.280 not our education system. So we've got like millions of 0:09:21.360 --> 0:09:25.679 Japanese soldiers coming out of their military academies looking for 0:09:25.880 --> 0:09:32.080 the fight, which is why we're we're at the end 0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:35.880 of the beginning. And that's it. More from this list 0:09:35.960 --> 0:09:38.200 of things every Democrat must sign on to or they're 0:09:38.240 --> 0:09:41.000 going to die as a party after a word from 0:09:41.040 --> 0:09:44.640 our friends, and there's stuff about patriotism and supporting the 0:09:44.679 --> 0:09:48.760 military too, like Warrior Foundation, Freedom Station they're celebrating their 0:09:48.760 --> 0:09:53.200 twenty year anniversary anniversary. You've heard us talking for years 0:09:53.280 --> 0:09:56.040 about this great foundation near and dear to us. They 0:09:56.120 --> 0:09:58.599 do wonderful work. Oh yeah, We've helped raise millions of 0:09:58.600 --> 0:10:01.599 dollars for Warrior Foundation and happy to do it. The 0:10:01.679 --> 0:10:05.440 countdown is onto their annual Freedom Station Givethon, which takes 0:10:05.440 --> 0:10:09.839 place next Thursday. So this holiday season, consider making a 0:10:09.920 --> 0:10:13.240 donation to fly ill and injured Marine soldiers and sailors 0:10:13.360 --> 0:10:16.440 home for the holidays. Everyone deserves to spend the holidays 0:10:16.440 --> 0:10:19.360 with their loved ones, especially those who so bravely sacrificed 0:10:19.400 --> 0:10:22.360 for our country. And we've seen at firsthand how Warrior 0:10:22.400 --> 0:10:25.080 Foundation continues to make a huge impact in the lives 0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:28.680 of our warriors with your continued support. So consider making 0:10:28.720 --> 0:10:32.400 a tax deductible donation next Thursday, November fourteenth at Warrior 0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:36.199 Foundation dot org. Not only are they flying our ill 0:10:36.280 --> 0:10:38.640 and injured fighters home for the holidays, they're building a 0:10:38.679 --> 0:10:41.960 third transitional housing property. Is fabulous work. Go to Warrior 0:10:42.080 --> 0:10:44.520 Foundation dot org to donate. Make sure you get the 0:10:44.600 --> 0:10:49.120 name right Warrior Foundation dot org. Talking about Warrior Foundation 0:10:49.240 --> 0:10:51.200 and the fact that Veterans Day is coming up reminds 0:10:51.240 --> 0:10:52.640 me I do want to talk a little bit about 0:10:52.679 --> 0:10:57.439 the unsettled world Trump is about to inherit and the 0:10:57.480 --> 0:11:00.960 different directions a couple of things could go. But more 0:11:01.040 --> 0:11:03.920 on that later. So back to Tishaar's piece, which is 0:11:03.960 --> 0:11:06.360 so good and a lot of it follows the same 0:11:06.480 --> 0:11:11.360 kind of ab form and I get why like this one. 0:11:11.880 --> 0:11:15.360 America benefits from the presence of immigrants and no immigrant 0:11:15.400 --> 0:11:19.439 even if illegals should be mistreated. So he starts with 0:11:19.559 --> 0:11:21.760 the disclaimer on all of these to make it a 0:11:21.800 --> 0:11:26.280 little more palatable for DS. But border security is hugely important, 0:11:26.440 --> 0:11:29.760 as is an enforceable system that fairly decides who can 0:11:30.000 --> 0:11:34.240 enter the country. Then he talks about police brutalities bad. However, 0:11:34.440 --> 0:11:36.720 more and better policing is needed to get criminals off 0:11:36.720 --> 0:11:39.439 the streets and secure public safety that cannot be provided 0:11:39.520 --> 0:11:43.600 by defunding the police. And then he touches on uh oh, 0:11:43.760 --> 0:11:45.920 and I love this, love this, love this. People who 0:11:45.960 --> 0:11:48.439 want to live as a gender different from their biological 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:51.560 sex should have that right. However, biological sex is real 0:11:51.679 --> 0:11:54.120 and space is limited to biological women in areas like 0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:57.480 sports in prisons should be preserved. Medical treatments like drugs 0:11:57.520 --> 0:12:00.920 and surgery are serious interventions that should not be available 0:12:00.960 --> 0:12:05.040 on demand, especially for children. Then he gets into language 0:12:05.080 --> 0:12:08.559 policing and a very sane view of climate change, including 0:12:08.559 --> 0:12:11.480 the fact that we're gonna need fossil fuels. He says, 0:12:11.600 --> 0:12:14.120 we must make America more equal, but we must also 0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:17.520 make it richer. There's no contradiction between the two. A 0:12:17.679 --> 0:12:21.160 richer country will make it easier to promote equality, and 0:12:21.240 --> 0:12:26.319 he goes on and on. So watching this battle unfold, 0:12:26.440 --> 0:12:28.719 it's like a civil war on the left side of 0:12:28.800 --> 0:12:33.640 the aisle. I think reality bats last. As you pointed 0:12:33.679 --> 0:12:36.640 out many times, Jack, I like the sane side to 0:12:36.800 --> 0:12:39.439 win that fight for the Democratic Party, but man, it's 0:12:39.440 --> 0:12:42.160 going to be a bloody civil war. Got some more 0:12:42.200 --> 0:12:45.800 information on that giant Chinese hack of all our cell phones, 0:12:45.800 --> 0:12:49.600 the biggest hack in US history. China currently can listen 0:12:49.679 --> 0:12:51.840 to your phone calls and read your text like today. 0:12:52.440 --> 0:12:53.800 Did you know that They've been doing it for like 0:12:53.840 --> 0:12:56.120 a year, So we don't even actually know. We don't 0:12:56.360 --> 0:12:57.679 know if we can ever boot them out of our 0:12:57.720 --> 0:12:59.319 cell phone systems. We don't know how to do it, 0:12:59.400 --> 0:13:01.880 or if we ever can. I mean, it's the most 0:13:02.000 --> 0:13:05.720 underreported story in America right now. But a new angle 0:13:05.800 --> 0:13:07.199 on that and a bunch of other stuff on the 0:13:07.240 --> 0:13:07.760 way stay here. 0:13:09.240 --> 0:13:14.840 Armstrong Hetti, a prosecutor's office in Argentina, announced criminal charges 0:13:14.880 --> 0:13:17.440 today against three people in the death of Liam Payne, 0:13:17.840 --> 0:13:20.880 the former One Direction singer, fell from a hotel balcony 0:13:20.920 --> 0:13:23.960 in Buenos Aires last month. Authority say Pain had traces 0:13:24.000 --> 0:13:27.280 of alcohol, cocaine, and antidepressants in his system when he died. 0:13:27.640 --> 0:13:30.559 One of the suspects is a hotel worker, Authoriti say, 0:13:30.600 --> 0:13:33.160 another is a drug dealer. The third is someone who 0:13:33.280 --> 0:13:36.480 had been accompanying Pain during his stay in Buenos Aires. 0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:40.800 So I've been surprised at how much attention this story 0:13:40.840 --> 0:13:43.360 has gotten because One Direction is a boy band that 0:13:43.400 --> 0:13:45.960 broke up quite a few years ago, and other than 0:13:46.040 --> 0:13:48.679 Harry Styles, I didn't know anybody knew the names of 0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:51.480 any of those people. And then one of them jumps 0:13:51.520 --> 0:13:53.640 to his death off a balcony, out of his mind 0:13:53.720 --> 0:13:56.719 on drugs and booze a couple of weeks ago, and 0:13:57.679 --> 0:14:01.200 the amount of news coverage you got, all your mainstream 0:14:01.280 --> 0:14:03.559 news has gone with it for weeks now and updates. 0:14:03.840 --> 0:14:08.280 But I do find this angle interesting, whether you know 0:14:08.440 --> 0:14:10.920 who the guy was or not. How the hell do 0:14:11.040 --> 0:14:15.880 you possibly determine blame in situations where he got people, 0:14:16.200 --> 0:14:20.040 everybody's partying like crazy, out of their minds high, and 0:14:20.160 --> 0:14:22.640 one guy who's depressed jumps off a balcony. I mean, 0:14:22.680 --> 0:14:24.840 I just I don't. I can't imagine how you nailed 0:14:24.920 --> 0:14:29.240 down people who are at fault for that or whatever. 0:14:29.480 --> 0:14:34.400 I don't know. I'm sympathetic to the idea that there's 0:14:34.720 --> 0:14:39.440 liability there, and certainly if they are poisoned, which is 0:14:39.560 --> 0:14:42.280 different from like an overdose, in that you gave them 0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:45.320 a substance you mis represented what you were giving them, 0:14:45.840 --> 0:14:48.080 that's a poisoning, not an overdose. His cause of death 0:14:48.120 --> 0:14:53.440 seems to have been gravity. Yeah, well, yeah, I don't right, 0:14:53.600 --> 0:14:56.320 as I said, extremely as I said at the time, 0:14:56.480 --> 0:15:00.040 and I regret he went one direction down and I 0:15:00.200 --> 0:15:03.960 was really beating up pretty harshly for that, as was appropriate, 0:15:04.160 --> 0:15:06.760 as was appropriate. But yeah, I was jumping off the 0:15:06.800 --> 0:15:08.160 balcony that killed him. But I don't know. Can you 0:15:08.200 --> 0:15:10.520 imagine trying to sort out that sort of a mess 0:15:11.080 --> 0:15:14.320 on who's to blame? It's like you're gonna be charged 0:15:14.360 --> 0:15:18.880 with I don't know, I know that happens. Well, I 0:15:19.000 --> 0:15:22.280 also don't know anything about argentinium laws, but I am 0:15:22.360 --> 0:15:25.880 happy that it's some places in California to your point, 0:15:25.960 --> 0:15:28.800 and around the country. They're now charging people. You give 0:15:28.880 --> 0:15:33.120 somebody a fentanyl pill and they die, you murdered them, right, Yeah, 0:15:33.480 --> 0:15:35.440 which is good. But if you need more of that, 0:15:35.680 --> 0:15:40.280 someone's super distraught and drinking and taking drugs for on 0:15:40.440 --> 0:15:42.720 a binge for weeks at a time, and they jump 0:15:42.800 --> 0:15:45.640 off a balcony, how would you possibly nail down I 0:15:45.680 --> 0:15:47.560 don't know. I guess we'll see how that trial turns out. 0:15:49.600 --> 0:15:52.440 The Chinese are listening, can listen to your phone calls today. 0:15:52.480 --> 0:15:54.160 I was talking to my kids about this yesterday and 0:15:54.680 --> 0:15:57.160 my son said, and he is correct, Why would the 0:15:57.240 --> 0:15:58.960 Chinese have any interest in what I'm saying on my 0:15:59.000 --> 0:16:02.680 phone call? Well, they probably don't, but you suppose they're 0:16:02.680 --> 0:16:08.160 recording them all some sort of terabytes of because I said, 0:16:08.680 --> 0:16:10.400 for one thing, we don't know what you're going to 0:16:10.480 --> 0:16:13.800 be someday, if you're a police chief or a politician 0:16:14.480 --> 0:16:17.280 or a who knows what, and then they've got something 0:16:17.400 --> 0:16:20.200 on you that they can use for blackmail. I mean, 0:16:20.240 --> 0:16:22.520 that's one of the reasons that they're doing it. How 0:16:22.560 --> 0:16:25.040 about all your texts over the last year, anybody got 0:16:25.040 --> 0:16:27.200 any texts out there of any kind that you'd rather 0:16:27.280 --> 0:16:31.240 not have be shared with the world, China adds them, Yeah, yeah, 0:16:31.360 --> 0:16:35.400 And now I am fairly certain, based partly on conversations 0:16:35.440 --> 0:16:38.680 I've had with folks in the counter intelligence business and 0:16:39.080 --> 0:16:45.760 partly just my own surmising, but China absolutely has probably 0:16:46.000 --> 0:16:48.200 some sort of color coded or some sort of code 0:16:48.640 --> 0:16:54.040 of Americans based on what they do and who they 0:16:54.080 --> 0:16:56.920 are and how they could conceivably be useful to the 0:16:57.000 --> 0:17:00.000 Chinese Communist Party. And then I'm sure they cross reference 0:17:00.400 --> 0:17:03.560 with and this is fairly easy to do with computers, 0:17:04.520 --> 0:17:08.800 people who say things that are clearly you know, blackmailable. Well, 0:17:08.880 --> 0:17:12.000 how about so, once again to bring up the twenty 0:17:12.080 --> 0:17:15.040 twenty eight presidential election, way too early. Every single person 0:17:15.119 --> 0:17:17.160 that's going to run for president in twenty twenty eight, 0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:19.840 on both sides, try to be a nominee. China has 0:17:20.200 --> 0:17:23.879 their phone calls and texts of the last year. I 0:17:24.000 --> 0:17:26.240 think there's anything in there for any of those governors 0:17:26.359 --> 0:17:29.320 or senators or mayors of small towns or whatever that 0:17:29.400 --> 0:17:32.000 are going to run for president that the Chinese could 0:17:32.080 --> 0:17:35.920 use as blackmail or embarrassment or something well right, and 0:17:36.000 --> 0:17:39.840 if you have blackmailable, slash embarrassing material, that's you know, 0:17:40.000 --> 0:17:42.520 that's coded in your software or whatever, and then in 0:17:42.800 --> 0:17:45.280 five years you cross reference that with who works for 0:17:45.320 --> 0:17:47.240 an aerospace company. Oh and I left out one of 0:17:47.240 --> 0:17:49.200 the headlines. The federal government told the whole bunch of 0:17:49.280 --> 0:17:52.199 federal employees yesterday to don't do anything sensitive on your 0:17:52.240 --> 0:17:55.920 phones anymore. So back to paper and pen. I guess 0:17:57.080 --> 0:18:02.200 that's something armstrong and getty. 0:18:03.600 --> 0:18:07.040 I'm done crying. My sadness is over. My anger has 0:18:07.080 --> 0:18:11.639 set in. I am a very petty person, and I 0:18:11.920 --> 0:18:15.040 am very proud of that. Love it about myself. Actually, 0:18:15.720 --> 0:18:19.600 and so I say this in the most disrespectful way possible. 0:18:20.320 --> 0:18:22.880 I don't care if you are my family. I don't 0:18:22.920 --> 0:18:26.480 care if we've been friends our entire lives. You can 0:18:26.720 --> 0:18:30.320 literally go for yourself. If you voted for Donald Trump, 0:18:30.960 --> 0:18:35.240 if you are so sad about your groceries being expensive, 0:18:35.480 --> 0:18:39.360 get a better paying job, do better in life, get 0:18:39.400 --> 0:18:46.200 a education, do something because you're stupid, And I hope 0:18:46.240 --> 0:18:48.040 you go jump off of a fire bridge. 0:18:48.480 --> 0:18:54.919 That's a professor at a college. Holy cow. So if 0:18:54.960 --> 0:18:58.120 I'm a Democrat, my feeling is we can either play 0:18:58.359 --> 0:19:01.480 that crowd, continue to play that crowd and hope for 0:19:01.520 --> 0:19:04.360 the best the Twitter crowd, or we can go back 0:19:04.400 --> 0:19:07.200 to being the party of the regular working class dude 0:19:07.280 --> 0:19:10.440 who doesn't believe probably any of the things that that 0:19:10.800 --> 0:19:13.440 guy believes. That that's the big conundrum if you're a Democrat, 0:19:13.760 --> 0:19:16.679 because all those like my I come from a family, 0:19:16.800 --> 0:19:19.320 like everybody on my dad's side's a Democrat, all like 0:19:19.440 --> 0:19:22.560 Iowa farmer type people, Democrats from the old Democrat tradition. 0:19:23.040 --> 0:19:25.920 But there's not a one of them that thinks, you know, 0:19:26.080 --> 0:19:29.080 dudes should be in women's sports, or you should use 0:19:29.119 --> 0:19:31.520 the term latinix or any of those things. If they've 0:19:31.560 --> 0:19:34.280 even you know, not a one of them, You just 0:19:35.320 --> 0:19:38.159 you've abandoned that kind of Democrat. And that's why all 0:19:38.240 --> 0:19:41.200 those people, I'd be shocked if like every one of 0:19:41.240 --> 0:19:45.080 them didn't vote for Trump this past Tuesday. Also lifelong Democrats, 0:19:45.200 --> 0:19:48.200 So you know, and I was, we're so in the moment, 0:19:48.840 --> 0:19:51.280 I had to be reminded of some things in the 0:19:51.440 --> 0:19:53.639 very recent past, like I wonder how many of your 0:19:53.720 --> 0:19:59.160 dad's kin would be in favor of firing any soldier, firefighter, 0:19:59.640 --> 0:20:02.760 healthy young man, for instance, who wouldn't get the COVID 0:20:02.880 --> 0:20:06.840 jab right right right? Keeping schools closed even though the 0:20:06.920 --> 0:20:09.520 one next door that's private is open. How in favor 0:20:09.560 --> 0:20:13.200 of that? Were they? A couple of things here? One, 0:20:13.320 --> 0:20:18.520 there was a rumor going around. I don't know what 0:20:18.600 --> 0:20:20.560 you call news anymore. That's not true. Do you call 0:20:20.680 --> 0:20:23.399 him rumors? I guess you call it misinformation. There was 0:20:23.440 --> 0:20:26.480 a misinformation going around on social media from a number 0:20:26.520 --> 0:20:30.160 of fairly high profile people on Twitter, for instance. Trump 0:20:30.200 --> 0:20:33.680 has announced that he was misleading people about Project twenty 0:20:33.800 --> 0:20:36.280 twenty five and he plans to enact it within hours 0:20:36.359 --> 0:20:42.399 of the president and people were taking it seriously. Oh geez, 0:20:43.359 --> 0:20:46.320 what's the matter with you? People with ad journalist from 0:20:46.400 --> 0:20:50.440 The Dispatch, which is a very fair organization, anti Trump, 0:20:50.560 --> 0:20:53.920 but very fair news organization, the Dispatch. Trump hasn't announced 0:20:53.960 --> 0:20:56.480 he lied about Project twenty twenty five. He hasn't even 0:20:56.600 --> 0:20:59.600 mentioned Project twenty twenty five since becoming president elect, and 0:20:59.680 --> 0:21:02.320 during a campaign Trump called it seriously extreme and said 0:21:02.320 --> 0:21:07.840 he never read it, which is the truth, right? Yeah, 0:21:08.359 --> 0:21:11.840 that's hilarious on so many levels. You think Trump is 0:21:12.000 --> 0:21:15.800 taking the views of think tanks. I mean, what view 0:21:15.880 --> 0:21:18.200 of you on the left is it of Trump that 0:21:18.440 --> 0:21:22.280 includes him big on think tanks telling him what to do. 0:21:23.720 --> 0:21:28.280 It just doesn't fit. Yeah. Yeah, But here's one of 0:21:28.320 --> 0:21:33.400 my favorite things that came across yesterday from the New 0:21:33.480 --> 0:21:37.760 York Times if I can find it, the headline being 0:21:38.119 --> 0:21:42.720 news analysis for Black women. America has revealed its true self. 0:21:44.359 --> 0:21:47.320 Kamala Harris's resounding defeat affirmed the worst of what many 0:21:47.400 --> 0:21:49.960 Black women believed about their country. Even if some of 0:21:50.000 --> 0:21:54.080 them looked to the future with waryed determination, and they 0:21:54.160 --> 0:21:56.200 go through blah blah blah blah blah what happened, But 0:21:56.359 --> 0:21:59.320 underneath their hope and determination for Kamala Harris was a 0:21:59.359 --> 0:22:03.400 persistent Was America ready? They asked to elect a black woman? 0:22:03.840 --> 0:22:08.280 The painful answer arrived this week. This is news analysis 0:22:08.320 --> 0:22:12.000 in the New York Times, not just some people's opinions 0:22:12.119 --> 0:22:17.440 that can be proven wrong by all the data from 0:22:17.600 --> 0:22:21.840 all just exit pollings, flat out data. However you want 0:22:21.840 --> 0:22:24.159 to look at it. It's very easily refuted that this 0:22:24.320 --> 0:22:26.639 is true, but your news analysis goes along with it. 0:22:28.000 --> 0:22:30.440 Back to the news analysis, it affirmed the worst of 0:22:30.520 --> 0:22:32.800 what many black women believed about their country, that it 0:22:32.840 --> 0:22:35.040 would rather choose a man who was and they list 0:22:35.080 --> 0:22:37.520 all the things about Donald Trump that they don't like 0:22:38.040 --> 0:22:40.600 than send a woman of color to the White House. Yeah, 0:22:40.640 --> 0:22:42.800 that's exactly what it was. It was all about it 0:22:42.840 --> 0:22:48.400 being a woman of color. They're actually delusional. I would 0:22:48.440 --> 0:22:50.040 think if you want to win elections, you'd want to 0:22:50.080 --> 0:22:52.280 get to the bottom of what actually happened. I mean, 0:22:52.359 --> 0:22:54.680 it's really easy to say it was racism and sexism 0:22:54.720 --> 0:22:56.680 and just rest on I don't know what we do 0:22:57.119 --> 0:23:00.520 racists and sexist. That's nuts. You're nuts if you actually 0:23:00.560 --> 0:23:05.240 believe that, you're crazier or I know you can't handle 0:23:05.320 --> 0:23:09.800 the truth as a trite phrase, but maybe you actually 0:23:09.880 --> 0:23:12.240 can't handle the truth. No, it's a good one. That's 0:23:12.240 --> 0:23:16.040 a fine phrase. Yeah, And you know it's funny. There's 0:23:16.119 --> 0:23:19.359 part of me, the part of me that wants conservative 0:23:19.440 --> 0:23:24.440 values to be the ones that rule the day, who's like, yeah, 0:23:24.600 --> 0:23:27.480
