WEBVTT - No Sticky Forks! 0:00:01.840 --> 0:00:06.160 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 0:00:06.200 --> 0:00:10.280 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Ketty. 0:00:10.160 --> 0:00:12.520 Armstrong and Getty and he. 0:00:15.360 --> 0:00:17.560 Armstrong and Getty. 0:00:23.720 --> 0:00:26.200 And finally, Authorities of California, you're looking for a thief 0:00:26.200 --> 0:00:29.040 who allegedly drove a stolen car through the doors of 0:00:29.040 --> 0:00:32.479 a JC Petty department store and stole jewelry. Police described 0:00:32.479 --> 0:00:35.000 the suspect as six feet tall, with brown hair and 0:00:35.040 --> 0:00:37.800 a very disappointed wife. 0:00:40.240 --> 0:00:41.560 You can drive through a different door. 0:00:43.479 --> 0:00:48.680 Another elitist shot in America's shopping institutions, Jack James Cash Penny, 0:00:48.840 --> 0:00:51.599 perfectly good place to shop. What's the one that we've 0:00:51.600 --> 0:00:54.800 played the other day? Oh oh oh, the Seth Myers joke. 0:00:55.240 --> 0:00:56.560 Go ahead and play one, Michael. 0:00:57.160 --> 0:01:00.480 Starbucks announced this week it's doubled it's paid parent leave 0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:04.120 policy for baristas. Well, Duncan employees are still insisting they're 0:01:04.160 --> 0:01:05.080 not the father. 0:01:07.040 --> 0:01:08.360 What what the hell was that? 0:01:09.400 --> 0:01:14.319 It's a beloved coffee and donut emporium and more across 0:01:14.360 --> 0:01:20.200 the fruited plain Duncan Man Dunkin Donuts were the treat 0:01:20.360 --> 0:01:21.120 when I was a kid. 0:01:21.200 --> 0:01:22.080 Oh really, we didn't have to. 0:01:22.200 --> 0:01:26.160 Everybody was good like once every few months after church, 0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:29.160 we would go get dunkin Donuts. 0:01:30.240 --> 0:01:33.800 Once every few months. Yeah, it's a post every day. 0:01:34.680 --> 0:01:36.720 Oh no, which would be more of a year, which 0:01:36.720 --> 0:01:38.200 would be more like today's lifestyle. 0:01:38.840 --> 0:01:42.560 Yeah, I guess so. Coming up of America's OBEs, the epidemic, No, 0:01:42.640 --> 0:01:45.240 it can figure out where it came from. So a 0:01:45.280 --> 0:01:52.440 couple of barely related thoughts. We're talking about this Bizarro 0:01:52.720 --> 0:01:56.920 ruling in California where this male rapist, he's a brutal 0:01:57.160 --> 0:02:01.680 forcible rapist, he's done it more than once, is now 0:02:01.960 --> 0:02:04.840 identifying as a woman, which is meaningless and stupid, and 0:02:05.720 --> 0:02:08.560 so the judges insisted the prosecutor refer to him as 0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:12.000 she and her through the trial. And then this person's 0:02:12.000 --> 0:02:14.519 in a woman's prison as obscene. And I was talking 0:02:14.520 --> 0:02:18.160 about the how you can't underestimate what it does to 0:02:18.240 --> 0:02:22.160 you when anybody really but the government forces you to 0:02:22.160 --> 0:02:24.480 say something you know not to be true. You have 0:02:24.560 --> 0:02:27.120 to submit to them. It breaks your spirit, which is 0:02:27.160 --> 0:02:30.040 why I won't do it. And then it's funny. We 0:02:30.160 --> 0:02:32.919 I was in a Troe did a trivia night with 0:02:33.000 --> 0:02:35.800 Judy and some friends, and I was so bummed because 0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:39.000 one of the questions, was what is the last line 0:02:39.160 --> 0:02:43.480 of nineteen eighty four or Well's classic, And I couldn't remember. 0:02:43.600 --> 0:02:45.880 And I'm so bummed because I just read it and 0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:48.520 I'm so into it. The last line happens to be 0:02:48.919 --> 0:02:52.520 he loved big Brother. It's Winston Smith. When his spirit 0:02:52.639 --> 0:02:58.239 was so completely broken, he actually internalized that he loved 0:02:58.280 --> 0:03:00.840 big brother. You know, he was full cognizant of the 0:03:00.880 --> 0:03:01.320 evil of it. 0:03:01.520 --> 0:03:05.040 Yeah, and just driving home the message that if you're 0:03:05.120 --> 0:03:10.280 told something enough, you will come to believe it, which 0:03:10.320 --> 0:03:12.519 is right, highly troubling, but it seems to be the 0:03:12.560 --> 0:03:13.679 way our minds work. 0:03:14.120 --> 0:03:18.160 And my militants about this topic and some others it. 0:03:18.639 --> 0:03:21.640 You know, if I run into a transgender person, whatever 0:03:21.680 --> 0:03:24.800 that means, again, that's a it's a mental problem, and 0:03:24.880 --> 0:03:28.160 I hope you find healing and happiness. I truly do. 0:03:28.400 --> 0:03:31.680 I'm never going to hurt anybody's feelings or humiliate them 0:03:31.880 --> 0:03:34.760 or try to discriminate against them in any meaningful way. 0:03:34.800 --> 0:03:37.320 I think that would be terrible and cruel. But at 0:03:37.320 --> 0:03:40.960 the same time, I understand from Orwell and others what 0:03:41.080 --> 0:03:45.600 it does to you when you submit to that sort 0:03:45.600 --> 0:03:48.920 of ideological oppression. It breaks your spirit and I won't 0:03:48.960 --> 0:03:52.920 do it. Having said that, I just came across this 0:03:53.160 --> 0:03:56.680 big brother isn't just watching. He's changing how your brain works. 0:03:57.520 --> 0:04:01.000 And this is so interesting. It was a studied done 0:04:01.800 --> 0:04:06.360 by an Australian research group at a couple of different 0:04:06.560 --> 0:04:10.960 colleges in Australia, and it's the methodology is a little 0:04:11.000 --> 0:04:14.560 long and difficult to explain, but what they found was 0:04:15.880 --> 0:04:18.800 if these people, the subjects of the experiment, were aware 0:04:18.920 --> 0:04:22.680 that they were being watched, and they showed them these 0:04:22.720 --> 0:04:25.679 are the closed circuit cameras. We're making sure that everything's 0:04:25.720 --> 0:04:27.480 on the up and up, and we want to observe 0:04:27.560 --> 0:04:29.080 so we can look at it later. And in fact, 0:04:29.120 --> 0:04:32.200 here's the control room, here the TV monitors that we'll 0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:35.640 be using, and blah blah blah. Then they did tests 0:04:35.839 --> 0:04:42.000 on awareness of and sensitivity to various stimuli, including faces. 0:04:43.720 --> 0:04:45.920 Cutting to the end. I know this is utterly unclear, 0:04:45.960 --> 0:04:48.039 cutting to the end. What they found was when people 0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:54.200 were aware of being watched, they were hyper sensitive to 0:04:54.800 --> 0:05:00.600 images of faces. They became cautious and on edge, and 0:05:01.160 --> 0:05:06.039 I would describe it as borderline afraid. They became hyper 0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:08.119 aware of, oh my god, who's watching me? And why. 0:05:08.640 --> 0:05:13.320 In other words, it changes your psyche to know you're 0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:16.039 being surveiled in ways that we're just beginning to understand. 0:05:16.080 --> 0:05:19.799 I can feel that. I feel that if I become 0:05:19.839 --> 0:05:22.960 aware there's a camera in you know, you're a lobby 0:05:22.960 --> 0:05:24.720 of something. Just look around you see a camera, it 0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:28.080 makes it. You can feel that something changes. 0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:34.719 Yeah. Yeah, And again it's not known exactly how much 0:05:34.760 --> 0:05:38.839 and in what way, which worries me. I've heard it 0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:42.240 said that a surveiled society is a an obedient society, 0:05:42.320 --> 0:05:43.280 a polite society. 0:05:43.360 --> 0:05:45.720 Well, we might as well figure out how it affects us, 0:05:46.200 --> 0:05:49.440 because it's here, a lot of places, in coming other places. 0:05:49.440 --> 0:05:52.960 We will all be surveiled all the time, soon everywhere, 0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:54.520 and it's getting closer every day. 0:05:55.560 --> 0:05:58.239 If our purpose is to make ourselves insane as a society, 0:05:58.279 --> 0:06:01.680 we're doing very very well. Sure, I congratulate us home, 0:06:02.480 --> 0:06:06.480 completely different topic. I thought this was great. Alan Dershowitz 0:06:06.520 --> 0:06:09.760 and Andrew Stein wrote this piece what Trump can do 0:06:09.920 --> 0:06:14.920 about sanctuary cities, because Trump has vowed to do plenty 0:06:14.920 --> 0:06:18.920 about it. Also, bring sanity back to colleges, in elementary schools, 0:06:18.960 --> 0:06:20.880 to the Department of Education, and stuff like that. And 0:06:23.000 --> 0:06:25.080 I love the ideas, but sometimes the mechanics are a 0:06:25.080 --> 0:06:30.400 little mysterious. What levers does he have exactly? And Dershwitz 0:06:30.480 --> 0:06:32.159 and what did I say? The guy's name is? Stein 0:06:33.000 --> 0:06:37.479 wrote that a constitutional showdown is looming over the border policies. 0:06:37.680 --> 0:06:39.880 We've all heard Tom Holman saying, we're going to deport 0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:41.599 these people. We're gonna round them up. You can either 0:06:41.640 --> 0:06:45.479 help or not. I liked what Holman said too. He said, 0:06:45.520 --> 0:06:47.600 all right, if you're not gonna support us, you're not 0:06:47.640 --> 0:06:49.400 going to cooperate with us, We're gonna put two three 0:06:49.400 --> 0:06:52.359 times as many ICE agents in your city. That's fine, 0:06:52.400 --> 0:06:56.080 we'll get it done. Denver Mike Johnston has said he'd 0:06:56.120 --> 0:07:00.520 be willing to go to jail to prevent deportations. All right, 0:07:00.720 --> 0:07:01.400 put him there. 0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:04.680 What a hell to die on again? I just say, 0:07:05.160 --> 0:07:10.320 you're gonna go to jail to protect criminals who've committed crimes, 0:07:10.320 --> 0:07:12.679 because that's where we're starting with. People are committing crimes 0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:15.080 in the United States and are here illegally. You're gonna 0:07:15.120 --> 0:07:17.000 go to jail to make sure that they don't get deported. 0:07:17.160 --> 0:07:19.000 You're nuts, you know. 0:07:19.320 --> 0:07:22.200 I wish you could somehow get to what is going 0:07:22.240 --> 0:07:24.760 on in a guy like that's head. I mean, my 0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:28.760 guess is that he has a desire to be accepted 0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:33.800 and to be seen as enlightened and progressive and merciful, 0:07:34.480 --> 0:07:36.800 and that desire is so strong in him it's like, 0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:40.360 you know, being a horny seventeen year old male or 0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:43.840 being starving, starving, hungary. It just so perverts his sense 0:07:43.880 --> 0:07:48.720 of priorities. I don't get that at all. Newpole out 0:07:48.760 --> 0:07:51.520 today similar numbers to what we've had before. Two thirds 0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:55.400 of Americans want all illegals deported. That's never gonna happen. 0:07:55.960 --> 0:07:58.000 But the ones that have committed crimes in the United 0:07:58.000 --> 0:08:00.880 States are gonna get deported. So then that's got to 0:08:00.920 --> 0:08:04.080 be like ninety percent, and you're going to be You're 0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:06.680 going to die on that hill, you nutjobs. 0:08:08.000 --> 0:08:11.160 I really think they are. I'm too again, it's it's 0:08:11.280 --> 0:08:14.160 it's very strange. I mean, even if we just deported 0:08:14.200 --> 0:08:19.480 the twenty percent who are the most derelict, lazy, useless, 0:08:19.600 --> 0:08:23.640 and or criminal, that'd be an enormous victory, just a. 0:08:23.520 --> 0:08:26.920 Fabulous Well, there are six hundred thousand criminals here illegally 0:08:27.000 --> 0:08:29.360 right now at least sure. 0:08:29.640 --> 0:08:31.960 Anyway, how will this hall be resolved by the courts. 0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:34.560 They write, Article six of the Constitution mandates that federal 0:08:34.640 --> 0:08:37.520 law quote shall be the supreme law of land, notwithstanding 0:08:37.600 --> 0:08:40.480 the laws of any state. The Tenth Amendment reserves to 0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:43.040 the States all powers quote not delegated to the United 0:08:43.080 --> 0:08:47.200 States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it by it 0:08:47.320 --> 0:08:50.480 to the States. Oh right, that is work correct. The 0:08:50.480 --> 0:08:54.200 constitutional question is whether the authority to regulate immigration, including 0:08:54.200 --> 0:08:57.760 the power to deport illegal aliens, is a power delegated 0:08:57.800 --> 0:09:00.480 to the federal government, and they write, of course it is. 0:09:00.760 --> 0:09:03.840 Border Crossers can travel from state to state unhindered, so 0:09:04.120 --> 0:09:07.240 entry anywhere in the US is entry everywhere. Thus, the 0:09:07.240 --> 0:09:09.920 federal government alone has the authority to control the right 0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:13.520 to enter and remain, as it does the power to exclude, deport, 0:09:13.559 --> 0:09:15.800 and prosecute those who violate immigration laws. 0:09:15.840 --> 0:09:17.840 Now, to me, the only question I'm not an expert 0:09:17.880 --> 0:09:19.360 in all this law stuff, but to me, the only 0:09:19.440 --> 0:09:22.160 question has been how did it go this long? Where 0:09:22.200 --> 0:09:26.800 a county, a city, estate can declare themselves sanctuary. That's nuts. 0:09:28.120 --> 0:09:30.840 Well, here's the rub, They write, The Constitution does not 0:09:30.920 --> 0:09:35.240 prohibit states from providing food, healthcare, housing, driving privileges, and 0:09:35.320 --> 0:09:38.560 other necessities to everyone within its borders, nor does it 0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:41.640 compel the states to employ resources to aid the federal government. 0:09:42.040 --> 0:09:46.040 The Supreme Court has articulated an anti commendeering doctrine that 0:09:46.160 --> 0:09:50.240 prohibits the Feds from quote, conscripting the state's officers directly 0:09:50.520 --> 0:09:54.199 to enforce federal law. And they write about how the 0:09:54.559 --> 0:09:57.839 doctrine's been revised over the years, and there's no real 0:09:57.960 --> 0:10:01.360 clear guidance on how it would precisely applied to sanctuary cities. 0:10:02.400 --> 0:10:05.800 Much would depend on these specific state action at issue. 0:10:07.240 --> 0:10:10.880 Bob about the President's established when some Southern state officials 0:10:10.880 --> 0:10:14.080 try to prevent the enforcement of federal court's desegregation orders, 0:10:14.280 --> 0:10:17.520 strongly suggest that states and cities may not actively block 0:10:17.640 --> 0:10:20.400 legitimate enforcement of federal law. 0:10:20.440 --> 0:10:22.880 But they don't have to help, right is that to 0:10:22.920 --> 0:10:23.440 make them help? 0:10:24.040 --> 0:10:26.760 In between these extremes are a variety of state actions 0:10:26.840 --> 0:10:30.120 and refusal to act. Give some examples. 0:10:30.240 --> 0:10:32.600 I can see legally how that's the thing. And I 0:10:32.640 --> 0:10:34.800 guess if you live in a nut job place like 0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:38.079 San Diego County just voided by the other day, where 0:10:38.120 --> 0:10:43.160 your constituents, a majority of your constituents say, yeah, don't 0:10:43.160 --> 0:10:47.280 help the federal government deport people are committing crimes in 0:10:47.280 --> 0:10:50.600 our county, and you're legally if a majority agrees with that, okay. 0:10:50.760 --> 0:10:53.440 I can't believe there are very many places where that's 0:10:53.480 --> 0:10:56.520 the case, including like you saw the city council meeting 0:10:56.600 --> 0:11:00.480 in Chicago. People are horrified. They're spending so much money legals. 0:11:00.960 --> 0:11:02.720 I find it hard to believe that the majority of 0:11:02.760 --> 0:11:06.360 people would be okay with keeping criminals there who are 0:11:06.360 --> 0:11:07.040 there illegally. 0:11:07.679 --> 0:11:10.240 I know, it's a bizarre notion. I can't believe anybody 0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:13.520 believes it. But so these guys who are pretty solid 0:11:13.600 --> 0:11:16.439 legal scholars just think, all right, we're not doing nothing 0:11:16.800 --> 0:11:20.120 they can get away with. But even a whiff of 0:11:20.280 --> 0:11:25.959 opposition or impediment would be actionable, and the federal government could, 0:11:26.040 --> 0:11:28.680 you know, take measures. What measures I might be, I 0:11:28.720 --> 0:11:34.240 don't know. It's still it's obscene to me that you would. 0:11:34.760 --> 0:11:39.160 And look, I am fully acquainted with the argument that 0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:44.000 if the immigrant community fears any interaction with the government 0:11:44.040 --> 0:11:46.720 will lead them to be deported, they won't report a rape. 0:11:46.800 --> 0:11:50.600 They won't report when these Venezuelan monsters kidnap them and 0:11:50.640 --> 0:11:53.440 torture them and take over their apartment. They'll be afraid 0:11:53.440 --> 0:11:55.280 to talk to any authorities. We can't have that. I 0:11:55.320 --> 0:11:57.640 get that, and I actually respect it on one level. 0:11:57.960 --> 0:12:03.040 But the idea that you have a violent criminal that 0:12:03.120 --> 0:12:05.320 you're going to put out on the streets and you're 0:12:05.559 --> 0:12:09.640 fully aware they've got a detainer, a detainment order from 0:12:09.679 --> 0:12:12.520 the Ice, and you, well, we're not going to help them. 0:12:13.080 --> 0:12:15.559 We're going to release that rapist or that to arm 0:12:15.640 --> 0:12:18.400 dropper or whatever onto the streets because we don't believe 0:12:18.520 --> 0:12:21.000 there's such thing as an illegal human. You are just 0:12:21.400 --> 0:12:26.160 you're incapable of operating in the adult world. You shouldn't 0:12:26.679 --> 0:12:29.560 You shouldn't even be like you should have a caretaker. 0:12:29.800 --> 0:12:31.920 You certainly shouldn't be running anything. 0:12:33.120 --> 0:12:34.880 So coming up what should be the story of the 0:12:34.960 --> 0:12:37.240 day on every news outlet in America. The Wall Street 0:12:37.320 --> 0:12:43.680 Journal talk to They have fifty different sources talking about 0:12:43.880 --> 0:12:48.240 the inside job of covering up Joe Biden's mental problems 0:12:48.559 --> 0:12:52.000 over the last over the last term. And it is 0:12:52.520 --> 0:12:57.080 fairly explosive, not surprising, really, but fairly explosive. Not getting 0:12:57.080 --> 0:12:58.520 near as much coverage as it should, but some of 0:12:58.520 --> 0:13:00.120 the highlights are amazing. I hope you can sigure on 0:13:00.160 --> 0:13:07.080 flat and other things stay here elun jumping was so nuts. 0:13:07.160 --> 0:13:08.959 Jd Vance can't buy no nuts. 0:13:09.000 --> 0:13:12.360 Look like for shallow may Boeing door just flew away, 0:13:12.600 --> 0:13:13.760 Bluey Beatle. 0:13:13.520 --> 0:13:17.080 Juice, brat Summer, Pardon Turkey, Pardon Hunter, penguin bear and 0:13:17.200 --> 0:13:18.880 baby reindeer, Jacob. 0:13:18.600 --> 0:13:24.600 Lord he has a beard, and hot Frosty. 0:13:24.840 --> 0:13:31.360 It did premiere, but yellow Stone has disappeared. 0:13:33.360 --> 0:13:35.280 I only got about half those references. 0:13:35.800 --> 0:13:37.080 Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. 0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:40.439 But the half I did get I really enjoyed. Reminds 0:13:40.480 --> 0:13:43.679 me I never watched Yellowstone, but I was reading some 0:13:43.720 --> 0:13:47.880 of the clap back on Twitter that the final episode 0:13:47.920 --> 0:13:50.960 of the series, the series ending episode woke at the end. 0:13:51.600 --> 0:13:53.760 Oh no, like with a message at the end, and 0:13:53.800 --> 0:13:56.320 that's why we've all got to deal with climate change 0:13:56.400 --> 0:13:57.680 or something. I don't remember what it was. 0:13:58.360 --> 0:14:02.840 Oh no, there has never been a less politically correct 0:14:02.880 --> 0:14:07.720 show in history. Oh really, please come for the beatings 0:14:07.760 --> 0:14:12.120 and shootings and and and the buryings of bodies and 0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:18.800 rapeine and and did Indian killings. And it was like 0:14:18.920 --> 0:14:24.160 the most over the top soap opera paired with goodfellas. 0:14:24.920 --> 0:14:26.880 Really that sounds good. I know a lot of people 0:14:26.880 --> 0:14:31.320 are score by it just absolutely loved it. Serious. Note, 0:14:31.360 --> 0:14:33.680 I'm only bringing this up because I found it darn interesting. 0:14:33.760 --> 0:14:36.120 So that girl that shot up that tiny little high 0:14:36.120 --> 0:14:40.320 school the other day and just horrible, horrible story. Uh, 0:14:41.480 --> 0:14:45.320 they've detained a twenty year old man in California who 0:14:45.400 --> 0:14:47.920 was plotting a coordinated attack with her. 0:14:48.840 --> 0:14:51.080 Oh so just fifteen. 0:14:51.320 --> 0:14:54.880 Yeah, she was in she was in contact with this 0:14:54.960 --> 0:14:59.480 dude in California and they were coordinating something. You probably 0:14:59.600 --> 0:15:02.280 saw the other day a picture of her shooting guns 0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:04.040 at the gun range, and she was wearing a T 0:15:04.160 --> 0:15:06.720 shirt of a band I'd never heard of that was 0:15:06.760 --> 0:15:10.520 popular by one of the Columbine shooter shooters. He was 0:15:10.520 --> 0:15:13.800 into that band. So there's something going on there. And 0:15:13.840 --> 0:15:16.680 then also this nugget that came out yesterday, which is 0:15:16.720 --> 0:15:23.400 not an excuse, but her parents divorced and remarried three times. 0:15:24.480 --> 0:15:26.920 Oh imagine that's a lovely household to grow up in. 0:15:28.040 --> 0:15:31.880 Oh I wondered what was going on there. She's well 0:15:32.200 --> 0:15:37.200 if some of her rambling, you know, pronouncements were indeed hers, 0:15:37.520 --> 0:15:43.440 she had like this vicious hatred of all males. Yeah, sick. 0:15:44.160 --> 0:15:46.120 So we're going to get to this coming out and 0:15:46.160 --> 0:15:51.480 can can I set the table here. This is a 0:15:51.520 --> 0:15:58.280 tweet from a columnist for the Washington Post who's retweeting 0:15:58.320 --> 0:16:01.440 the Wall Street Journal article, Well, how the White House 0:16:01.440 --> 0:16:04.480 functioned with a diminished Biden in charge. I get the 0:16:04.520 --> 0:16:08.040 sense that at least this Washington Post reporter is not 0:16:08.160 --> 0:16:10.920 happy with being lied to. The White House went to 0:16:11.000 --> 0:16:13.840 great lengths to conceal Biden's decline, not just from the 0:16:13.880 --> 0:16:17.280 American people, from members of its own cabinet and key 0:16:17.320 --> 0:16:20.360 Democrats on the Hill. They limited interaction and used go 0:16:20.480 --> 0:16:25.000 betweens to reduce visibility about how frail he'd become. Nate Silver, 0:16:25.400 --> 0:16:28.280 the polster they got so much attention during the election, said, 0:16:28.760 --> 0:16:32.240 if you had said any of this stuff that the 0:16:32.360 --> 0:16:34.640 Washington or that the Wall Street Journal is reporting today, 0:16:34.720 --> 0:16:36.560 if you had said any of this stuff before June 0:16:36.600 --> 0:16:39.800 twenty twenty four, you'd have been accused of peddling misinformation. 0:16:41.160 --> 0:16:44.520 Like there was literally an entirely new category of misinformation 0:16:44.600 --> 0:16:48.120 they called cheap fakes concerning videos of Biden's decline. Now 0:16:48.120 --> 0:16:49.600 it's out in the open and known to be that 0:16:49.680 --> 0:16:53.360 was all true. That was absolutely true. Wow. Joe will 0:16:53.440 --> 0:16:56.200 run through the highlights from the Wall Street Journal piece 0:16:56.240 --> 0:16:57.560 coming up I'm. 0:16:57.360 --> 0:17:00.680 Flipping through the Washington Post right now. I don't see 0:17:00.840 --> 0:17:02.680 any coverage of it. 0:17:02.680 --> 0:17:05.320 It should be the lead story in America. It should 0:17:05.359 --> 0:17:08.440 lead the evening news tonight. It's not going to because 0:17:08.440 --> 0:17:10.480 I guess they'd have to admit they were complicit at 0:17:10.480 --> 0:17:14.000 some level or really bad journalists, either one or the other. 0:17:16.359 --> 0:17:17.480 Armstrong and Getty. 0:17:18.640 --> 0:17:21.120 Look, there's so many young women who have been including 0:17:21.160 --> 0:17:24.560 a young woman who just was murdered, and he went 0:17:24.600 --> 0:17:28.439 to the funeral, and the idea that she was murdered 0:17:28.440 --> 0:17:30.919 by by by an immigrant coming in. 0:17:31.520 --> 0:17:32.400 They talk about that. 0:17:32.640 --> 0:17:33.440 But here's the deal. 0:17:33.720 --> 0:17:36.119 There's a lot of young women to be raped by 0:17:36.160 --> 0:17:39.280 their by their in laws, by their by by their spouses, 0:17:39.960 --> 0:17:44.000 my brothers and sisters, by or just it's just ridiculous, 0:17:44.119 --> 0:17:46.199 and they can do nothing about it, and they try to 0:17:46.240 --> 0:17:47.560 rest them by the cross state line. 0:17:47.600 --> 0:17:52.280 Thank you. That was one of the highlights from the 0:17:52.600 --> 0:17:56.719 utterly disturbing Biden Trump debate that ultimately forced jo Biden 0:17:56.760 --> 0:17:59.639 out of the race, when what was plainly evident to 0:17:59.880 --> 0:18:04.040 the vast majority of Americans became utterly undeniable even to 0:18:04.119 --> 0:18:07.320 the political class. Although there are some who are still 0:18:07.359 --> 0:18:10.199 denying to this day that Joe Biden is diminished in 0:18:10.240 --> 0:18:12.280 any way, which I think has got to be some 0:18:12.320 --> 0:18:17.760 sort of DC insider beltway. Look, how steadfast I am. 0:18:18.119 --> 0:18:21.960 Hire me for your next opening, and I'll pretend that 0:18:22.040 --> 0:18:25.960 you're not whatever brand of monster you are. Anyway, Let's 0:18:26.040 --> 0:18:29.160 let's hear another clip from the debate. Michael, let's go with. 0:18:30.600 --> 0:18:33.680 One oh five, making sure that we're able to make 0:18:33.800 --> 0:18:38.280 every single solitary person are eligible for what I've been 0:18:38.280 --> 0:18:41.560 able to do with the uh, the COVID I s 0:18:41.600 --> 0:18:47.600 could be with dealing with everything we have to do with. Look, 0:18:49.280 --> 0:18:52.720 if we finally beat medicare. 0:18:52.600 --> 0:18:54.480 Thank you, President Biden, President Trump. 0:18:54.520 --> 0:18:56.920 Well, he's right, he did beat medicare, beat it to death, 0:18:56.920 --> 0:18:58.240 and he's destroying Medicare. 0:18:58.680 --> 0:19:02.200 And that was the end. A Joe, you answered all 0:19:02.280 --> 0:19:03.400 of the questions. 0:19:04.880 --> 0:19:08.560 Yeah, Doctor Jill's role in all of this needs to 0:19:08.600 --> 0:19:11.520 be discussed at length at some point, and I'm sure 0:19:11.640 --> 0:19:14.360 historians will. But the Wall Street Journal out with a 0:19:14.440 --> 0:19:18.719 blockbuster piece today how the White House functioned with a 0:19:18.800 --> 0:19:24.040 diminished Biden in charge. Talk to fifty different sources on 0:19:24.080 --> 0:19:28.280 and off the record. As Jack mentioned, other journalists are 0:19:28.440 --> 0:19:32.560 retweeting this article, and I wonder whether some of them 0:19:32.560 --> 0:19:36.000 were told with a heavy, heavy hand. This is not 0:19:36.119 --> 0:19:38.800 a topic we're going to be writing about. I'd prefer 0:19:38.920 --> 0:19:43.000 you do the story on the Secretary of Transportation's new drapes. 0:19:44.400 --> 0:19:49.800 Because why are other journalists from other publications so enthusiastically 0:19:49.840 --> 0:19:51.720 retweeting this and tweeting links around. 0:19:52.800 --> 0:19:54.520 I don't know, but they're doing it, like, you know, 0:19:54.560 --> 0:19:56.960 on Twitter, not officially. I haven't seen it in the 0:19:56.960 --> 0:19:59.360 New York Times or the Washington Post. As you mentioned, 0:19:59.680 --> 0:20:02.399 I had all the TVs on the whole show, and 0:20:02.440 --> 0:20:04.680 I haven't seen him mention it of it on any 0:20:04.680 --> 0:20:06.879 of the shows. They should have quotes from this article 0:20:07.240 --> 0:20:08.639 on Good Morning America Today. 0:20:09.440 --> 0:20:12.760 Yeah, yeah, I mean, if you are tweeting it around 0:20:12.840 --> 0:20:16.600 because you're amazed that this is the case, You're like, 0:20:16.680 --> 0:20:20.520 oh my god, Joe Biden's mental capacity is diminished. You 0:20:20.600 --> 0:20:23.360 should not be a journalist. You would go to Big 0:20:23.400 --> 0:20:27.320 sur California and not notice the giant trees, you know, 0:20:27.440 --> 0:20:29.520 I don't know. Another example. I don't know. You'd go 0:20:29.560 --> 0:20:32.760 to Miami and not notice the ocean. I mean, there's 0:20:32.840 --> 0:20:34.080 something wrong with you. 0:20:34.119 --> 0:20:38.720 Well, my favorite retweet was somebody complaining about PolitiFact named 0:20:38.760 --> 0:20:42.200 as their lie of the year, Donald Trump saying they're 0:20:42.200 --> 0:20:45.560 eating the cats and the dogs. And this person compared 0:20:45.600 --> 0:20:47.960 that to the Wall Street Journal headline today that the 0:20:48.080 --> 0:20:51.920 live the year. Maybe that dozens of people were hiding 0:20:51.960 --> 0:20:54.720 the fact that the president couldn't do his job because 0:20:54.760 --> 0:20:57.280 his brain was broken. That sounds like the lie of 0:20:57.320 --> 0:20:57.800 the year to me. 0:20:58.800 --> 0:21:02.200 So the Wall Street Journal goes into a great deal 0:21:02.240 --> 0:21:05.600 of detail, again speaking to dozens of people about how 0:21:05.760 --> 0:21:11.040 early on in the administration, visitors were told to keep 0:21:11.080 --> 0:21:16.720 meetings focused. Interactions with senior Democratic lawmakers and some cabinet 0:21:16.720 --> 0:21:20.959 members grew less and less frequent. Some legislative leaders had 0:21:20.960 --> 0:21:23.159 a hard time getting the presidents here at key moments, 0:21:23.160 --> 0:21:26.160 including ahead of the ahead of the US's disastrous pull 0:21:26.200 --> 0:21:32.400 out from Afghanistan. Senior advisors, you know, I'm going to summarize, 0:21:32.440 --> 0:21:37.360 the senior advisors were absolutely clearly running the show, and 0:21:37.560 --> 0:21:41.760 they would clue Biden in at times. But any information 0:21:42.840 --> 0:21:45.560 that went to the president, especially in the last two years, 0:21:45.920 --> 0:21:51.679 went through your Jake Sullivan and your National's Economic Council 0:21:51.760 --> 0:21:57.679 had Lel Brainerd and senior councilor Steve Verschetti. They were 0:21:57.760 --> 0:22:00.840 running the show. They were the resputant, if you will, 0:22:02.080 --> 0:22:04.359 who had the King's ear and nobody else had it. 0:22:06.560 --> 0:22:09.240 Let's see how into detail do we want to get. 0:22:09.600 --> 0:22:12.280 Throughout his presidency, a small group of theades stuck close 0:22:12.320 --> 0:22:14.760 to Biden to a system, especially when traveling or speaking 0:22:14.800 --> 0:22:17.880 to the public. Now, all presidents have assistants who tell 0:22:17.920 --> 0:22:19.480 him all right, mister president, we're going to work the 0:22:19.520 --> 0:22:21.040 rope line and then we'll go to the plane blah 0:22:21.040 --> 0:22:23.399 blah blah. But Biden would have to have people like 0:22:23.560 --> 0:22:27.200 at his arm ushering him around because he couldn't remember 0:22:27.240 --> 0:22:30.600 what they told him five minutes ago. And people were 0:22:30.600 --> 0:22:33.680 fairly shocked who got close enough to observe this. 0:22:38.200 --> 0:22:42.760 The constantly canceling meetings, to me is where it really 0:22:42.800 --> 0:22:43.600 gets dicey. 0:22:44.960 --> 0:22:47.240 Yeah, the whole good days and bad days thing. 0:22:47.400 --> 0:22:51.879 If you're constantly canceling meetings, you by definition can't do 0:22:52.000 --> 0:22:52.560 your job. 0:22:55.359 --> 0:23:00.240 Well, you certainly probably can't deal with I just said 0:23:00.320 --> 0:23:03.080 certainly probably. I guess I'm thinking of exceptions. I mean, 0:23:03.119 --> 0:23:06.800 you could be very sick. But then focus if mister president, 0:23:06.800 --> 0:23:10.280 the Chinese launched the attack, but he obviously was in 0:23:10.320 --> 0:23:12.560 a state where they just could not do business for 0:23:12.680 --> 0:23:13.720
