1 00:00:01,840 --> 00:00:06,160 Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George 2 00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:10,200 Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty. 3 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:17,240 Speaker 2: Arm Strong and Jattie and he Armstrong and Hetty. 4 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 3: My new study has revealed that by quieting down certain 5 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 3: neuronal networks, bees sleep like humans, so they lie awake 6 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,199 Speaker 3: until two am. Wondering if they said hi in a 7 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 3: weird way to Brenda from Accounting. 8 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw that study. The headline was intriguing, and 9 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:43,839 Speaker 1: I haven't looked into it. Perhaps I will look into it. 10 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,080 Speaker 1: That sounds like something we could talk about. The whole 11 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 1: bees sleep like humans thing. I'm blown away, and I 12 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: myself wondered if they wake up at two o'clock in 13 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 1: the morning, thinking, I just don't think I rank as 14 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 1: high in the high as I should. 15 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 4: Right right, Oh my god, the hive is leaking, and 16 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:04,960 Speaker 4: I know I need to deal with it because it'll 17 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 4: just get worse, right or. 18 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,399 Speaker 2: All this buzzing, where is it getting me? 19 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,199 Speaker 4: I've got to admit I've invested far too little time 20 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,399 Speaker 4: considering the sleep habits of bees. 21 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,399 Speaker 1: Not to go back to the academic stuff, but I 22 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 1: was for some reason this popped into my mind. 23 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 2: In this bee thing. 24 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: I have known a number of people, like academics, PhD 25 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: type people who had such narrow areas of study, and 26 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 1: I'm amazed that you can focus on such a narrow 27 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 1: thing for your whole career and not go crazy or 28 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 1: lose interest. It's bees, yeah, or just bees in general, 29 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, AnyWho More importantly, Wow, this could be huge. 30 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: Just report here from Fox. 31 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 5: Republicans on the House Oversight Committee are ready in subpoenas 32 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 5: in case former President Biden's White House physician, doctor Kevin O'Connor, 33 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 5: and four Keystone offers don't agree to a request for 34 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 5: congressional interviews by the Thursday deadline. The committee is investigating 35 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 5: the Biden administration's use of the auto pen to sign 36 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 5: pardons and executive orders, some. 37 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 2: Still being challenged in court. 38 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,839 Speaker 5: Chairman James Comer tells Fox the committee could even call 39 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 5: in former First Lady Jill Biden, the president's son Hunter, 40 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 5: and former White House Press Secretary Kareem Jehan Pierre. 41 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 6: If the trail leads us to the next step, which 42 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 6: many believe would be perhaps Joe Biden and Hunter Biden, 43 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 6: then we will go there. 44 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 1: So James Comber's got a bit of Adam Schiff in 45 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,919 Speaker 1: him in that he promises a number of things or 46 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: suggests a number of things that don't happen. I mean 47 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,239 Speaker 1: he's done that in number quite a few times. Actually, yeah, 48 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:49,519 Speaker 1: you got there before I did. 49 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 2: You're right. 50 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:56,360 Speaker 1: But if for whatever reason, God, I gotta believe, Well, 51 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,359 Speaker 1: it's the Trump White House. I was about to say, 52 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: I got to believe that there would be a certain 53 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 1: amount of. 54 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 2: Norm breaking. 55 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: That quite a few people don't want to do in 56 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: terms of bringing up the former first Lady and growing 57 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: here about what happened in the White House, and then 58 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 1: that becoming a regular thing. After every president leaves, you 59 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,399 Speaker 1: bring in their spouse and try to embarrass them. Did 60 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: he ever confide in you that he planned to bomb 61 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: that the weapons site? 62 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 4: Right? 63 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't love it. 64 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: But if they did, this is obviously in unique case, 65 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: there's a decent chance that well, let's listen to James Comer. 66 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 2: He kind of explains it here. 67 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 6: Someone got documents and manually placed them in the machine 68 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 6: and pressed the power button to sign Joe Biden's signature. 69 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 6: That was not Joe Biden. That was done by Staffords. 70 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 6: That would be done by any staffords. So we want 71 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 6: to ask them who gave you the authority to use 72 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 6: Joe Biden's signature, and we'll go from there. Obviously, we 73 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 6: believe that some of the names, the chief of staff 74 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 6: and perhaps the First Lady, were involved in a lot 75 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 6: of the decision making. If that's where the trail leads, 76 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 6: then we'll bring them in as well. 77 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: As I said, this is mancuffs. This is a unique 78 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: situation here. We'll bring the first Lady in in manacles 79 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,040 Speaker 1: if necessary. Did you see the hood over did you 80 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,679 Speaker 1: see Hannibal elector? Yes, she'll have the hand of elector masks. 81 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 1: She'll be on a dolly from home Depot will rull 82 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: her a strap to a dolly, yes, if necessary, if 83 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: that's where the trail lead. But as I said, it's 84 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: a unique situation because of this, and I'll read from 85 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 1: the Jake Tapper book. We've mentioned this several times, but 86 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: I'm reading from it now. Five people were running the country. 87 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,839 Speaker 1: Now this is quoting one of their high level democratic 88 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 1: sources in the Tapper Thompson book. Five people were running 89 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,359 Speaker 1: the country and Joe Biden was at best a senior 90 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: member of the board. Said one person familiar with the 91 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 1: internal dynamic. A cabinet secretary. A cabinet secretary told them 92 00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: that expressed a similar sentiment about that group. I've never 93 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: seen a situation like this before, with so few people 94 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: having so much power, they would make huge economic decisions 95 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:20,559 Speaker 1: without calling the Treasury Secretary Yellen. That's worth investigating, isn't it. Yes, 96 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: I think so. 97 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 4: And the question of the autopen as well, I think 98 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 4: is legitimate. I'd like to know more about the conventional 99 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 4: use of the autopen. But yeah, who was in charge? 100 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 4: To what extent were we not following the constitution? 101 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: You know. The more I think about it and where Yet, 102 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,280 Speaker 1: Tim the lawyer on later he would probably point this out. 103 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,919 Speaker 1: Constitutionally speaking, those cabinet secretaries give advice to the president. 104 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 1: He still gets to do what he wants. So if 105 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: he decides to take his advice from that group of 106 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: five people instead of Secretary Yellen on an economic matter, 107 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 1: he gets to that's not unconstitutional. 108 00:05:58,360 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 2: It's not the way things are. 109 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: We have a cabinet secretary, we don't know which one 110 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: saying I'd never seen anything like this before, major economic 111 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 1: decisions being made without even talking to. 112 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,720 Speaker 2: The Secretary of the Treasury, right, But you read my mind. 113 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 4: Other than a couple of narrow questions that they might 114 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 4: be able to answer about either the autopen or something 115 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 4: like that. You're never going to get any satisfaction because 116 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 4: you can just go with no. Joe Biden preferred to 117 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 4: give his cabinet secretaries a more free hand, and. 118 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,559 Speaker 1: That's where the discussion ends. Well, no, he wasn't really 119 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: calling the shots. 120 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 2: They were. 121 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 7: No. 122 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 4: He that's his management style. You'll never get any satisfaction. 123 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 4: You know, he's an oligator. He delegates. That makes him 124 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 4: a good leader. Yeah, knowing more is always better than 125 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 4: knowing less. But yeah, this trail, other than a couple 126 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 4: of fairly narrow questions, is not going to be satisfying. 127 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 1: But you got to admit if they had doctor Jill. 128 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: First of all, doctor it hurts when to do this 129 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: fake doctors. They had doctor John, a doctor, and you 130 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:04,919 Speaker 1: know the way these hearings go, where the whole point 131 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: is to you know, grandstand and make a moment that's 132 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 1: gonna get on the news or you can retweet. Uh, 133 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 1: it would be pretty it'd be pretty juicy, almost guaranteed. 134 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 4: Oh to have doctor Jill in there, Oh my god, 135 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 4: I would cancel everything. 136 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 2: I would cancel, like major heart surgery to watch that. 137 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: He is known to have not recognized George Clooney, who 138 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: he knows very well, when he saw him at a fundraiser. 139 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: He did not recognize or remember the name of his 140 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: secretary of State, so ms Biden. Did he ever forget 141 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: who you are? Did he ever look at you and 142 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,239 Speaker 1: seem to not recognize who you are? Hey? 143 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 2: Those would be? My name is not Esther.

I keep promising 155 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 4: I'm not going to talk about it anymore, But then 156 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 4: my favorite writers take their shot at it. For instance, 157 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 4: The Brilliant, the Hilarious Matt tyebe Fantastic headline Jake Tapper's 158 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 4: Biden book is hilarious and insane. 159 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,319 Speaker 2: After a quick word friends at. 160 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: Trustin Will, what's funny about that is that was the 161 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: first word I used after I got the book.

I haven't gotten any stuff about 210 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 1: Kamala yet. 211 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 2: I'm not that far into the book. 212 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 1: That has to be one of the driving forces is 213 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 1: that they didn't trust Kamala being president. 214 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 2: Right, has to be. Yeah. 215 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 4: I've seen quotes to that effect from the book, so 216 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 4: I believe them to be there. So, as I said earlier, 217 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,119 Speaker 4: I keep saying, Okay, that's the end of this discussion 218 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 4: about the book and Biden being seen island the rest 219 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 4: of it. But the continued attempt to spin it by 220 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,439 Speaker 4: the authors is just too delicious to pass up. And 221 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 4: the particularly Jake Tapper Alex Thompson, I think is a 222 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 4: pretty straight shooter. But my favorite writers keep engaging and 223 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 4: I can't pass it up. Like the brilliant Matt Tayebe, 224 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 4: Jake Tapper's Biden book is hilarious and insane is his headline. 225 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 4: Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson's mass media apologia is leaps 226 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 4: and bounds more demented than. 227 00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 2: The book subject Joe Biden. And then he talked about 228 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 2: how he wasn't gonna do it. 229 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 4: He wasn't gonna do it, but in the moment of 230 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:09,200 Speaker 4: late night weakness, he was reading from chapter one and 231 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 4: talking about how is all Joe Biden's fault. He screwed 232 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 4: Kamala Harrison, the Democratic Party and David Pluff is all 233 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 4: mad and the rest of them He. 234 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 2: Totally afked us. Holy catfish Tye, he writes. 235 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 4: I thought from online buzz that original Sin was a 236 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 4: Mia Koppa. It would own the press's failures to cover 237 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 4: Joe Biden's infirmity in a super belated blah blah blah. 238 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 4: But original Sin isn't that as you indicate, Jack. It's 239 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,839 Speaker 4: much crazier. Instead of a dreary and predictable book length 240 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 4: excuse for thousands of media professionals simultaneously whiffing on the 241 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 4: most obvious story in history. It's an ambitious book length 242 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:50,319 Speaker 4: effort to absolve all concerned pin and industry's coverage mistake 243 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 4: on its president drool cup subject, all while additionally swirling 244 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 4: a new storm system of bull less storylines key part 245 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 4: to lay more serious questions about things like who was 246 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 4: president for four years? 247 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, the excellent point. 248 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 1: It's the opposite of a mea culpa, and the literary 249 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 1: degree of difficulty is awesome, equivalent to a blind unicyclist 250 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 1: trying to juggle six chains. 251 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 2: To Jake and Alex pull it off. 252 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 4: They don't, but they sure leave a hell of a 253 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 4: lot of blood on stage. 254 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 1: It's probably that it struck him the same way from 255 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 1: page one. It's like, it's it's it's dizzying that what 256 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 1: is happening here? 257 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 2: What is this book right right right? Trying to thread 258 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 2: that needle? 259 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,200 Speaker 4: The book's opening lines tell us we're supposed to be 260 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 4: shocked by Biden's delusional state, and then he gets into 261 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 4: some quotes from the book. Reading this, you may experience 262 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 4: a memory double take. Wasn't the public told repeatedly after 263 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 4: that after last year's infamous debate that very little had 264 00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 4: changed And these are all quotes from the mainstream media. 265 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 4: There was less polling damage than expected, and few of 266 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,319 Speaker 4: the results reflected or radically altered race. 267 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 2: As NBC put it. 268 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 4: Didn't we see high profile polls telling us that it's 269 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 4: a dead heat Biden than the lead. Blah blah blah. 270 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 4: There are less optimistic takes, but the idea that Joe 271 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 4: Biden may have thought he had a chance is not 272 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 4: that insane right after the debate, because the polls had 273 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 4: not really changed. Let's see, in the introduction, Tapper and 274 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 4: Thompson explained, there's is a literary porridge not too old 275 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 4: and hot, not too cold, but just right. Those who 276 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 4: were convinced that Joe Biden was little more than a 277 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 4: husk from the beginning, barely capable of stringing two sentences together, 278 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 4: will not find support for that view here, they write. 279 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:49,800 Speaker 4: Those who assist he was unaddled to the end are 280 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 4: also just as wrong. And then he goes into his 281 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 4: own history, writing for Rolling Stone, among others before the election, 282 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 4: that Biden quote, on multiple occasions look close to grabbing 283 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 4: prospective voters by their ears and speed eating their faces off. 284 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,880 Speaker 4: And often he looks around like he expects this a 285 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 4: thumb up for giving into his rage response just just 286 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 4: his terrible and we we described this at the time. 287 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 4: He would go off on angry, red faced rants at voters, 288 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 4: or hold women's arms and pull them close for way 289 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 4: too long. Just a mess anyway, Let's see. Uh, anyone 290 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 4: who recalls this will find it very hard to take 291 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 4: the Tap for Thompson line that Biden was fine at 292 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 4: the start, but not at the end. And at some 293 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 4: point in between his incapacity became obvious enough to be 294 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 4: melting before our eyes, not only so obvious that anyone 295 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 4: but Biden could be blamed for lying about it. It 296 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 4: hurts my brain to think about the math of that one. 297 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 4: And anyway, he goes into some detail on that. There 298 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 4: was one more. 299 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: Well, like I said, the page before chapter one, whatever 300 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: you call that page, had some long Latin quote and 301 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 1: then a big quote from Shakespeare like this was some 302 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: sort of deep, interesting psychological who saw this coming part 303 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 1: of history and human nature? It's like, get over yourself important, 304 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: Explain to me why you didn't report on what everybody 305 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 1: knew but they don't yew that no, no, and then 306 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 1: you know final note, And this is in Matt's style, 307 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 1: quite long, but he talks about in the Dean Phillips 308 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 1: chapter they blame Biden entirely for running again and they're 309 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 1: not being a primary. But Taivi writes, Thompson and Tapper 310 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: know well that the entire party vetoed the idea of 311 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 1: an open primary. There's a long chapter titled Dean Phillips. 312 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: The Chronicles Weirdly and incompetently the abject process by which 313 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 1: challenge were excluded from any kind of primary process, though 314 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 1: a lot of the worst shenanigans are left out. The 315 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 1: two authors less note it was quote it was machine 316 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:06,640 Speaker 1: style politics to ensure that Biden would be the nominee 317 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 1: if the entire Democratic Party apparatus went along with spiking 318 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 1: a robust primary. How can it be all Biden who 319 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 1: fed us by refusing to acknowledge his decay and quit. Yeah, 320 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 1: it's it is a fake job of accounting. It is 321 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 1: going an inch toward accounting to avoid having to go 322 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: the next eleven inches. 323 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 2: That would would really, you know, show the deal. 324 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 1: Uh coming up on a talk a little bit about 325 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 1: Elon and the coverage and how angering it is. You 326 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,920 Speaker 1: said it a week ago, Michael, Nobody is going to 327 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 1: beat the Oklahoma City Thunder. Nobody They moved on to 328 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 1: the NBA Finals. They're just awaiting their opponent with a 329 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 1: win by thirty points last night, and they are unstoppable. 330 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: They might be the first NBA champion that practically nobody 331 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:03,639 Speaker 1: could name a player on in NBA history at the 332 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: end of this although there was an article the other 333 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,159 Speaker 1: day that the ratings are up quite a bit with 334 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 1: the smaller markets. 335 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:11,360 Speaker 2: That defies logic. I don't know if that will last 336 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:11,639 Speaker 2: or not. 337 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 1: Armstrong and Getty. 338 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 7: Elon Musk roll as a special government employee coming to 339 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 7: an end, posting on AX, I would like to thank 340 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 7: President Trump for the opportunity to reduce wasteful spending. In 341 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 7: his last hours working for the Trump administration, Musk breaking 342 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,680 Speaker 7: with the President on his massive spending bill, arguing it 343 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 7: would undo their own efforts to shrink the federal government. 344 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. 345 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 1: The reporting around Elon Musk stepping away from government and 346 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:47,639 Speaker 1: going back to his old wife, which is incredible. His 347 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,159 Speaker 1: old life was incredible. It's amazing that he took on 348 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:53,639 Speaker 1: this giant task for a while. But the reporting on 349 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 1: this has been driving me crazy. The combination of a 350 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:04,399 Speaker 1: gloating over how little he accomplished, like that's something to 351 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 1: be happy about, right, But you're happy about it because 352 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:11,959 Speaker 1: it was somebody in Trump's orbit failing, even though it's 353 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 1: going to ruin your kids' lives. 354 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 2: Correct. That combination of that and UH and the. 355 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:24,360 Speaker 1: Dismissing, the dismissing the effort or what was accomplished, just 356 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:26,359 Speaker 1: it makes me insane. 357 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 2: And still to be accomplished. 358 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, First of all, here's Elon talking about the big 359 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:32,440 Speaker 1: beautiful bill. 360 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:36,160 Speaker 8: You know, I was like disappointed to see the massive 361 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 8: spending bill, frankly, which increases the bunch deps that not 362 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,359 Speaker 8: does decrease it, and that reminds the work that the 363 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 8: Noche team is doing. 364 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 4: I actually thought that when this big beautiful bill came along. 365 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:51,399 Speaker 4: I mean, like everything he's done on Dose gets wiped 366 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 4: out in the first year. 367 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 8: I think, I think a bill can be can be 368 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 8: can be big, or it can be beautiful, but I 369 00:19:58,320 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 8: don't know if it could be both. 370 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,359 Speaker 1: So that clip struck me as while he you know, 371 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 1: he was disappointed in the bill, not nearly the way 372 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,680 Speaker 1: it was portrayed all day long yesterday before I finally 373 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 1: heard it his. 374 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 4: Last Trump or Musk breaks with Trump right criticize it. 375 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 2: Finally the bromance is over. 376 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't exactly sound like it to me, especially 377 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 1: considering the fact that Elon tweeted out I really will. 378 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 2: I can read the tweet to you if you want. 379 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 1: As my scheduled time as special government employee comes to 380 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,199 Speaker 1: an end, I would like to thank President Trump for 381 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 1: the opportunity to reduce wasteful spending. The DOGE mission will 382 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 1: only strengthen over time as it becomes a way of 383 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 1: life throughout the government, which is true to a certain extent, 384 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: as they've put a number of things in place. For instance, 385 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:47,360 Speaker 1: he mentions in that same interview from Sunday morning, there 386 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: were all kinds of places in the government where spending 387 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 1: automatically got signed off without any review whatsoever. You just 388 00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 1: submitted a bill and said, yeah, I need five million 389 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: dollars for this, and somebody just signed whatever I had 390 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,919 Speaker 1: to be signed, and he got it without any thinking 391 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,480 Speaker 1: about it whatsoever. And that's why there's a long list 392 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 1: of crazy crap. I almost dropped it as bumb crazy 393 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 1: grap that money gets spent on and that is now 394 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 1: in place and will continue. Is it well short of 395 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 1: the two trillion dollars he was hoping to cut? Hell, Yeah, 396 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 1: which is very disappointing to me, should be disappointing to everyone. 397 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know it. 398 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 4: And what especially annoys me about the media and which 399 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 4: is ninety percent half wits and liars anyway, and we 400 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 4: all know it. But they criticize DOGE bitterly, the activities 401 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 4: of DOGE, which is ongoing again bitterly for oh, this 402 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:42,199 Speaker 4: single mom is gonna lose her job, or these cuts 403 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 4: could hurt people, blah blah blah. But then when Elon 404 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:50,400 Speaker 4: Musk breaks with Trump and criticizes the bill as not 405 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:54,720 Speaker 4: cutting enough spending. Now, Elon Musk the great truth teller. 406 00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:58,240 Speaker 4: We should listen to him. I mean, my god, he's 407 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:00,679 Speaker 4: on the same side of the issue. But now you 408 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,159 Speaker 4: like him because he's quote unquote broken with Trump, and 409 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 4: I don't think we have Trump's sound. We should, but 410 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 4: it's not here. He was asked about that Elon Musk 411 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,159 Speaker 4: criticized the bill. He said, look, there's some stuff in 412 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 4: the bill I love. There's some stuff I don't like 413 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:14,399 Speaker 4: so much. That's what happens with bills. 414 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: So Jonathan Turley tweeted out, now that Elon Musk has 415 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,679 Speaker 1: returned to his businesses, that it's time to acknowledge his 416 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 1: legacy in advancing space exploration, electric vehicles, free speech, and 417 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 1: other public service. Trump should award him the Presidential Medal 418 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 1: of Freedom. That's funny, I thought that driving to work today. 419 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 1: He should absolutely give Elon the Presidential Medal of Freedom. 420 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 1: If Obama gave it to Biden for being a vice president, 421 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: then yeah, Elon, can we wait for. 422 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 4: A couple of days after the pardoning of various scumbags 423 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 4: that Trump did just to give it a little more luster. 424 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 1: Sorry, Jonathan Turley goes on to say Elon has been 425 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,359 Speaker 1: targeted and threatened for his work in the executive branch. 426 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 2: That service cost him a fortune. 427 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,199 Speaker 1: It is time for the American people to express our 428 00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 1: gratitude for his contributions to our country and economy. He 429 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 1: put a lot on the line and literally cost him 430 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 1: a lot to try to take this on because he 431 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:08,919 Speaker 1: thought it was the right thing to do, because he 432 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,639 Speaker 1: thinks debt is such a threat. And they didn't carve 433 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 1: out several hundred billion dollars. Again, it's a tiny amount 434 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: compared to what we need to do, but that's not. 435 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:21,919 Speaker 2: Worth the effort. 436 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I just don't even understand the reasoning behind 437 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 1: the attack. 438 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 2: Trump derangement syndrome. 439 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 4: There is no reasoning, except in as much as the 440 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 4: emotional reasoning that most lefty journalists engage in is there. 441 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,639 Speaker 4: Oh my god, so you got a thousand unnecessary jobs. 442 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 4: Cutting those jobs made people sad. Therefore it is bad 443 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 4: because I don't have the capacity for logic. I think 444 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 4: emotionally all the time. 445 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:52,679 Speaker 1: Mark Halprin points out that the New York Times assigned 446 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 1: five reporters to write about Elon's departure yesterday, and as 447 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,919 Speaker 1: he as Halprin says, to try to drive a wedge 448 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 1: between Trump and Elon because they love that for some reason. 449 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 1: How many reporters do they have on the absolutely brilliant 450 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,360 Speaker 1: guys who are continuing the doge work, the guys who 451 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 1: Brett Bear famously interviewed, We ran a bunch of audio 452 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 1: from it, who are doing God's work in your children 453 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 1: and grandchildren's work too, trying to reign in, profligate government spending. 454 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: New York Times no interest in that course, They're terrible. 455 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,920 Speaker 1: Five reporters on that, as Halpin writes, it reads more 456 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 1: like a daily mail piece than something serious. For one thing, 457 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 1: but also points out there's not an insignificant number of 458 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,680 Speaker 1: size of relief from colleagues in the White House about 459 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 1: Elon's departure, which I don't doubt a bit from a 460 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 1: combination of he was getting more attention than me, just 461 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 1: that sort of jealousy or making my department more difficult, 462 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 1: or whatever. 463 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 2: Turns all change all. 464 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 4: He also has a very forceful, energetic way of going 465 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 4: about his business, which is probably tough to take sometimes 466 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 4: and also pretty incompatible with some of the realities of government. 467 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,160 Speaker 4: All right, So I understand it was an uncomfortable fit, 468 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 4: that's true, But I don't understand the glee about that. 469 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 4: So I'm watching MSNBC this morning. 470 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,159 Speaker 1: I flip it on, and they're just once again, a 471 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,959 Speaker 1: businessman thinks he can come into Washington, d C. And 472 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:22,119 Speaker 1: treat it like a business and Washington always wins, and 473 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 1: Elon learned a lesson. 474 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 2: Are you you're so you're happy about that? 475 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 1: You're joyful about the fact that businessmen can't make a 476 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 1: dent in the fact that we spend so much more 477 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 1: money than we take in and we're gonna become insolvent. 478 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 2: That makes you happy? 479 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 6: Somehow? 480 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 4: I don't get it, cause they're stupid, idiots and liars. 481 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 4: What's not to get?

It's you know what, 485 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:53,719 Speaker 4: It's like a redwood tree. Just when I think it's 486 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:55,479 Speaker 4: as big as it could possibly get, I look out 487 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:56,400 Speaker 4: and it's five feet high. 488 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,600 Speaker 1: I I hope, I really hope that I do this 489 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:02,120 Speaker 1: most of the time, in that I have some things 490 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 1: I care about and believe and like when those causes 491 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:11,399 Speaker 1: get advanced, and hate when they get set back, regardless 492 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:15,720 Speaker 1: of who's involved. I hope because watching other people take 493 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:19,439 Speaker 1: glee in the destruction of the country, if it's the 494 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:25,359 Speaker 1: other team or or helps my team, I don't understand 495 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:26,919 Speaker 1: that way of looking at the world. 496 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 2: Yay, we're gonna go and solvent. 497 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:39,359 Speaker 4: They're stupid liars, he says again, They're unwise, they're fools, 498 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 4: They're dumb bastards.

That's why they 499 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 4: think that way. 500 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 1: Maybe to uh and I hate them Bolsters's not already, Clark. 501 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 2: I just want to. 502 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 1: Make surelier you said you want to pound on their 503 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: stupid heads that's correct. 504 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 2: Yes, I remain desirous of that. 505 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 1: Yes, I want to pound on the stupid heads, just 506 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:06,160 Speaker 1: to show that I'm not a Trump honk and supporting 507 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 1: everything that is in the Trump orbit. I think it's 508 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 1: great that a court says the president can't stretch some 509 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 1: emergency power and change the tariff structure of the entire 510 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: world on his own right. 511 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:22,399 Speaker 4: Of course, he didn't hear this the Court of International Trade, 512 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 4: which is a fairly obscure three judge court in America. 513 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: Here's how obscure. This is the reason I brought it 514 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:30,879 Speaker 1: back up. Yeah, byron Yorke of the Examiner Rights. Prior 515 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 1: to today, the Court of International Trade's greatest tariff ruling 516 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:38,200 Speaker 1: was that the Snuggie is a blanket. 517 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:42,639 Speaker 2: Yes, remember when they ruled on that the Snuggie is 518 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:44,120 Speaker 2: a blanket? Right? 519 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 4: The debate was is it a blanket or merely a 520 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 4: backward robe anyway, So this court has said, no, you 521 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 4: don't have emergency powers to just unilaterally declare all these tariffs. 522 00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 4: Now it goes to the Circuit Court of Appeals, then 523 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 4: to the Supreme Court. So we'll have to see how 524 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,919 Speaker 4: it shakes out. But it's it's a major development. 525 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:07,679 Speaker 1: Oh god, I remember this Snuggy phenomenon because my brother 526 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 1: got one. 527 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 2: He ordered one for someone, And do you remember the 528 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:12,199 Speaker 2: ads for the Snuggy. 529 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 1: What was funny about it is it's a blanket with 530 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:17,160 Speaker 1: a hole in it so you can put your head 531 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:18,919 Speaker 1: through it. So is it a blanket or a pon 532 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 1: show or whatever? I don't know why that became a 533 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: point of contention for. 534 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 2: The armholes too, right. I remember that the line was 535 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 2: it was a backward robe, right anyway. 536 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: So their ad was, you know, satisfaction guaranteed, money back 537 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 1: guaranteed if you're not satisfied. But we learned this when 538 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 1: my brother got for someone for Christmas. It shows up 539 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 1: to your house in a box with nothing but the 540 00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 1: snuggy in a box. 541 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 2: There's no like return address, no information, no phone, no 542 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 2: no nothing. So hell are you going to return? 543 00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 4: Right? 544 00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 2: Right? Exactly? 545 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 4: You'd have to spend hours and hours figuring out how 546 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,719 Speaker 4: to return your fifty eight dollars. I don't remember what 547 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 4: that costs the snuggie. I'll tell you what it was 548 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 4: worth it for our family Christmas that year. Everybody put 549 00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,200 Speaker 4: it on and took a picture, and you know, great 550 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 4: social media moment. 551 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 1: That's beautiful, the snuggy and all the people sitting on 552 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 1: the couch looking so happy in it.

Oh oh, it was, because when. 580 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 1: China feels free or feels it necessary, they will turn 581 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 1: off the power and the cell phone system and water 582 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 1: and god knows what else because they have implanted their 583 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 1: evil software and so many of our systems and then 584 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: inevitably cannibalism. My poor OCD thirteen year old can't sleep 585 00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 1: at night sometimes because he's worried about it. 586 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 2: So I have to keep this talk to a minimum 587 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 2: at home. 588 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, plus AI anyway, So budding funniest emailer Sean Rights 589 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 4: on the topic of cannibalism, guys, I had twenty middle 590 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 4: schoolers on a hiking field trip.

Anyway, on the top 605 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 4: of your world wore three decay rights. Guys, what will 606 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 4: happen if we initiate the military? How many men will 607 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 4: declare that they are trans females and therefore not eligible 608 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 4: to be drafted? Is it kind of like having bone 609 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 4: spurs or asthma. It can get you out of this 610 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 4: commitment now, but you may not have to suffer the 611 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 4: consequences of your illness for your entire life because poof, 612 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 4: it's gone. 613 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 1: Change my mind, zero chance of a draft. So that 614 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:20,959 Speaker 1: helps eliminate the concern. 615 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 4: I should mention that we got a bunch of really interesting, 616 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 4: serious emails on the topic of Russia and Ukraine. 617 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 1: Gonna hit those hour three, hour four of the show. 618 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: Love that topic. 619 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, so stay tuned for that. This is a lighter 620 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:42,160 Speaker 4: far indeed, But nitpicking, writes John, How ironic that I 621 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:46,480 Speaker 4: choose you. I chastise you for saying nutpicking instead of nitpicking. 622 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 4: I guess he had in a previous email which I 623 00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 4: couldn't find, since quibbling over such minute in the English 624 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 4: language practically defines what nitpicking is. But you, sir, an 625 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 4: authority in future, AI will pick up your mistakes and 626 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 4: magnify them. Be therefore justly diligent unless you intended that 627 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:07,840 Speaker 4: malapropism ironically, in which case never mind. Well, no, you're misunderstanding. 628 00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 4: Nutpicking is a very different concept from nitpicking. Nitpicking is 629 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 4: worrying about tiny little details that are not significant. Jack, 630 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 4: would you like to explain what nutpicking is? 631 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 1: Nutpicking is taking somebody, usually from social media, but not always, 632 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 1: but you take an extreme example of the other side 633 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:27,720 Speaker 1: that you don't like and hold them up as this 634 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 1: is what everybody on the other side is like, and 635 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 1: it's not completely fair. You take the craziest transactivist twenty 636 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 1: three year old video on Twitter and say, see, these 637 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,719 Speaker 1: people are nuts, that most people are nuts. That's picking 638 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:45,959 Speaker 1: a nut right and using it to a blanket coverage 639 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 1: of everyone with. 640 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:52,480 Speaker 2: It right exactly.
