1
00:00:01,840 --> 00:00:06,120
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

2
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:10,240
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.

3
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:17,200
Speaker 2: Armstrong and Getty and he Armstrong and Letty.

4
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 3: The justification is being used for power to impose tariffs

5
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 3: on any product from any country in any amount for

6
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:36,879
Speaker 3: any length of time. That seems like I'm not suggesting

7
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:40,520
Speaker 3: it's not there, but it does seem like that's major authority,

8
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 3: and the basis for the claim seems to be a misfit.

9
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 4: That is, Chief Justice Roberts during the oral arguments of

10
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 4: the hotly anticipated tariffs case yesterday at the Supreme Court.

11
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 5: Let me throw in the CNN headline is Trump threatens

12
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 5: to cut flights at forty airports. That's a slightly different

13
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 5: take on what is probably the biggest story of the day.

14
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 5: We will get to that. It's got to do it.

15
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 5: The government shut down coming up in a little bit.

16
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 4: I think the headline is CNN still exists and anybody

17
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 4: watches it isl of garbage.

18
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 5: So there are oral arguments yesterday around this giant, giant

19
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 5: tariff decision, and you listened to them.

20
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 2: How many hours did you listen to? Dwell?

21
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 4: There were two and a half hours worth and I've

22
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:30,559
Speaker 4: just got half an hour to go and wow, dedication. Yeah,

23
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 4: I'm fascinated by this stuff. I love it. It's the

24
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,959
Speaker 4: road I did not travel. It's like an like a

25
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 4: super hardcore football fan listening to a conversation between Bill

26
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,040
Speaker 4: Belichick and you know, another legendary coach.

27
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 2: So I just really enjoy it.

28
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 4: But we've all heard the caveats, right, it's difficult to

29
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 4: read the tea leaves of the.

30
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 2: Oral arguments blah blah blah.

31
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 4: And the other thing I think a lot of people

32
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 4: who aren't into this don't realize is that it's not

33
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 4: like they flip open a binder and say, oh, oh,

34
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 4: it's the tariff thing, all right, let's hear the oral arguments,

35
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 4: and then at the end of the oral arguments, they think, yeah, yeah,

36
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 4: I'm sold. Like a trial, like a criminal trial might be.

37
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 4: They've been looking at this stuff for months, reading all

38
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 4: sorts of briefs from both sides, and then amikus briefs,

39
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 4: which means, you know, friends of the court saying hey,

40
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 4: we're on this side as a respected thing tank and

41
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 4: here's why. And their clerks have been working like lunatics

42
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 4: for weeks and weeks in a week studying this stuff,

43
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:32,920
Speaker 4: and what the oral arguments is, generally speaking, is the

44
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,639
Speaker 4: justices think. You know, I want to hear from the

45
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 4: lawyers involved on this point because I'm a little fuzzy

46
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 4: on this, or I want to make sure I've got

47
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 4: this right because I'm going to lower the boom and

48
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 4: i want to make sure my reasoning is sound. So

49
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 4: it doesn't tell you which way it's going to go,

50
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 4: but it's not useless either.

51
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 5: Anyway, any any before you get into the specifics of

52
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 5: this case, any takeaways from the justices themselves and level

53
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 5: terms of level of talent slash intelligence? Wow, anybody stand

54
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 5: out either direction? I will tell you this.

55
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 4: Elina Kagan, with whom I disagree about everything, is incredibly bright.

56
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 6: Yeah.

57
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 2: I've hear people.

58
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,080
Speaker 5: I've heard people say that, and every time I hear

59
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 5: her talk, I feel that way too.

60
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:26,520
Speaker 2: Oh yeah yeah.

61
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 4: Like I say, I disagree with her on virtually everything,

62
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 4: but I would be honored to have a conversation with her.

63
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 4: She is a serious, serious legal mind.

64
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 2: She's just wrong.

65
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 4: The idea that Clarence Thomas doesn't belong to be there.

66
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 4: It doesn't belong there, and is some sort of Uncle

67
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 4: Tom and the fact that his silence through the years

68
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 4: is an indication of something or other. Nothing could be

69
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 4: more wrong. Oh my god, Yeah he no serious, serious man. Yeah,

70
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 4: you know, Katanji Brown Jackson, the newest, youngest and most

71
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 4: blah blah blige of the justices, is not a dope.

72
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,119
Speaker 2: Well, God, I would hope not. No.

73
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:17,359
Speaker 4: No, She's obviously very, very bright. And I'm not surprised

74
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,159
Speaker 4: after we had the story yesterday about the fact that

75
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 4: she's decided that the decorum of the court and the

76
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 4: dignity of the court and.

77
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 2: She's not gonna be held back.

78
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 4: She's gonna speak her mind and tell her truth to

79
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:32,359
Speaker 4: the media or whatever. Bring really strong descents where she

80
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 4: really kind of grandstands. She's just she looks at life

81
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 4: through an emotionalistic, progressive lens and comes off a little

82
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,279
Speaker 4: bit that way on the bench. But she asked some

83
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 4: really good questions anyway, And you know, I could go

84
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 4: on and on. I'm a huge Brett kavanav fan and

85
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,039
Speaker 4: a huge Neil gorsicch fan in particular.

86
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 5: I was I don't take it in there as much

87
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,159
Speaker 5: as you do, But that Amy Coney Barrett really seems

88
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 5: like a.

89
00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 2: Smart as a whip, cute as a button. Oh I'm

90
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:01,599
Speaker 2: both going huh.

91
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh boy. Anyway, mister Barday, I tip my cap

92
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 4: to you. Anyway, back to the actual testimony, and for

93
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 4: what it's worth, I've read reams now on the oral

94
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 4: arguments as well as listening to it. Every single headline

95
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,840
Speaker 4: is virtually the same. For instance, this is Scotus blog.

96
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 4: Court appears dubious of Trump's tariffs. If that one's about Venezuela,

97
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 4: that would not help us at all. In the Wall

98
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 4: Street Journal, Trump's tough day at Supreme Court puts tariffs

99
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 4: in jeopardy and similar no matter where you look, here's

100
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 4: Justice Gorsicch.

101
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 7: It does seem to me, and tell me if I'm

102
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,919
Speaker 7: wrong that a really key part of the context here,

103
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:46,359
Speaker 7: if not the dispositive one for you, is the constitutional

104
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:50,919
Speaker 7: assignment of the taxing power to Congress, the power to

105
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:55,359
Speaker 7: reach into the pockets of the American people is just different,

106
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 7: and it's been different since the Founding and the Navigation Acts,

107
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,359
Speaker 7: part of the spark of the American Revolution.

108
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:08,039
Speaker 4: And let's see, we had another great clip of I

109
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 4: thought we had where's the Chief Justice? Do we not

110
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:16,919
Speaker 4: have that one where he makes clear that there's something

111
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:22,479
Speaker 4: very very special in our system and our history about taxation.

112
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 4: There was no Boston licensing Party, or there was no

113
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:35,280
Speaker 4: Boston quota party. That Boston Tea Party was about tax period,

114
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,600
Speaker 4: and we overthrew a government because of taxation without representation.

115
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:44,039
Speaker 4: And the problem with the government's position to me is

116
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 4: that they say, Okay, we have an emergency. Yeah maybe,

117
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,839
Speaker 4: and AIPA, the law we've all heard about says you

118
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 4: can do certain things in emergencies, doesn't mention tariffs, mentions regulation.

119
00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 4: Maybe you could say that includes tariffs or is it

120
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 4: a tax I don't know. But then when you get

121
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 4: into taxation, that's like the giant kahuna of who does what?

122
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 4: When they designed our system, the power of the purse

123
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 4: is Congress's. It cannot be in the hands of the king,

124
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 4: I mean president, and several justices said, you know, Congress

125
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 4: can delegate a lot of stuff, but that power we

126
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 4: got to be super, super careful. Here is the aforementioned

127
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 4: qutie pie. That's terrible, brilliant leg amy cony.

128
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 2: I active, that's the most misogynist thing you've ever.

129
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 4: Done in boll please, in both intellect and demeanor. I

130
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 4: find her comely. Indeed, Wow, Justice Barrett.

131
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 6: I want to ask you a question about unusual and

132
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 6: extraordinary threat which we have not talked about yet, and

133
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 6: I specifically want to talk about the reciprocal tariffs these

134
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 6: are imposed on. I mean, these are kind of across

135
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 6: the board. And so is it your content, men, that

136
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 6: every country needed to be tariff because of threats to

137
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 6: the defense and industrial base. I mean it Spain, France,

138
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 6: I mean I could see it with some countries. But

139
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 6: explain to me why as many countries needed to be

140
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 6: subject to the reciprocal tariff policy as are.

141
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 4: Somebody brought up Sweden. We've got a huge trade surplus

142
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 4: with Sweden. What was the emergency there?

143
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 5: Well, remember when the original list came out, it was

144
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 5: like every country on Earth, right, and there were different numbers,

145
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 5: And then they had that formula for how they came

146
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 5: up for the number for each of the one hundred

147
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 5: countries or however many it was, and it was a

148
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 5: fairly complicated formula no one could quite understand. But yeah,

149
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 5: they couldn't all fall under the same emergency, right, right,

150
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:49,560
Speaker 5: Let's flip to a forty four. Michael, it's b John Sower,

151
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 5: who is the attorney for the President on his side,

152
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 5: and the aforementioned Justice Kagan jawing.

153
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 8: The president has to make a formal declaration of a

154
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 8: national emergency, which subjects him to particularly intensive oversight by Congress,

155
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 8: repeadio natural lapsing, repeated review reports, and so forth. It says,

156
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 8: you have to consult with Congress to the end of

157
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 8: the maximum.

158
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 1: I mean, you yourself think that the declaration of emergency

159
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 1: is unreviewable. And even if it's not unreviewable, it's of

160
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 1: course the kind of determination that this Court would grant

161
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 1: considerable deference to the to the president on. So that

162
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like much of a constraint, but it is.

163
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 1: And that you know, we've had cases recently which deals

164
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: with the president's emergency powers, and it turns out we're

165
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 1: in emergencies everything all the time, about like half the world.

166
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:37,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, which ought to bother you if you're a

167
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 4: lover of liberty, this constant state of emergency. The other

168
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 4: really interesting point that a couple of the justices made

169
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 4: was that if we were to play a little fast

170
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 4: and loose with granting this power of taxation in tariffs

171
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:58,439
Speaker 4: or taxes to the president, you can't claw that back

172
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 4: without a two two thirds majority in both houses, because

173
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 4: once you grant a president that sort of power, a

174
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 4: no president either party is going to give it back willingly.

175
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 2: So you've got to.

176
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 4: Be willing to or able to overcome a presidential veto

177
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,560
Speaker 4: to claw that power back to Congress, which a couple

178
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,199
Speaker 4: of the justices referred.

179
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 2: To as a one way ratchet.

180
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 4: One final note, Justice Alito, who I also am a

181
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 4: big fan of, he seemed much more sympathetic to the

182
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 4: president than the others in forty six.

183
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,439
Speaker 9: Can you say that this is not this case does

184
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:41,679
Speaker 9: not that these executive orders do not address an unusual

185
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:43,079
Speaker 9: and extraordinary threat.

186
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 2: I understand that argument. I suppose that.

187
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 9: The facts were that it was suppose that there was

188
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 9: an imminent threat of war, not a declared war, but

189
00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 9: an imminent threat of war with a very powerful enemy

190
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 9: whose economy was heavily dependent on US trade. Could a

191
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 9: president under this provision impose a tariff as a way

192
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,599
Speaker 9: of trying to stave off that war? Or would you say, no,

193
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 9: the president lacks that power.

194
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, The answer was long. But Alito was finding a

195
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 4: way to He was trying to find a way to

196
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 4: protect what somebody else referred to as the President's toolkit.

197
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 5: So you said yesterday, I don't remember if you said

198
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 5: it on the air or now. You think Justice Roberts

199
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:35,439
Speaker 5: is really going to try to get a nine to

200
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 5: zero vote on this against Yeah, the Trump having the

201
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 5: power to do.

202
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 2: This, right.

203
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,079
Speaker 4: I reached out to some of my favorite legal authorities

204
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:48,439
Speaker 4: and they said, yeah, he would like that, but it's unlikely.

205
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,839
Speaker 4: So you know, it's it's going to be interesting to

206
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 4: see play out. And they're going to get to the decision,

207
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:59,200
Speaker 4: I'm told, not next June like they usually do because

208
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:02,080
Speaker 4: it's too big a tours. Well, didn't they need to

209
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 4: get to it like eight months ago would have been helpful.

210
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 4: Takes the time to write them legal briefs.

211
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 5: Trump said yesterday in his interview with Brett Bair that

212
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 5: this is one of the biggest decisions the Court's going

213
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:16,839
Speaker 5: to make in his entire administration.

214
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,320
Speaker 4: Well, and Trump said, yeah, if it goes the wrong way,

215
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 4: it'll cause a worldwide depression for the rest of our lives,

216
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 4: which I actually laughed out loud.

217
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,280
Speaker 5: I hope he's wrong, it won't. Well, what's going to

218
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 5: be the unraveling of the tariffs?

219
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 4: Though?

220
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 5: If the Court does decide the president can't do this?

221
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:37,079
Speaker 5: How they how do they unring the bell? What's that process?

222
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 5: That is unclear? Might have to go back to lower

223
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 5: courts to adjudicate that issue. Where's its way back to

224
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:42,560
Speaker 5: the Supreme Court?

225
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 4: Somebody might hint, take Congress, wonder if you freaking do

226
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,760
Speaker 4: your jobs and come up with a solution. But all

227
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 4: kinds of companies have paid, you know, lost tons of

228
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 4: revenue or had to adjust prices in way and then

229
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 4: consumer and then domestic, yeah, foreign end, domestic and consumers

230
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 4: have paid you know, X thousand dollars more for this

231
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,319
Speaker 4: or that because the derf. Do you get your money back?

232
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:02,440
Speaker 4: Or how does that all work?

233
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 2: Nobody knows. Nobody knows. Again, we got more of the ways.

234
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 2: Stay here.

235
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 10: Japan is grappling with a grizzly problem, deadly bear attacks.

236
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 10: A record twelve people have been killed in more than

237
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:23,400
Speaker 10: one hundred barrencounters since April alone, and issues so serious

238
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:27,680
Speaker 10: the country's pacifist military has taken the extraordinary step to

239
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 10: deploy forces to the northern Akita and Iwate prefectures, arms

240
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,680
Speaker 10: with shields, bear spray and traps.

241
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 5: Watch out, bears are gonna go Pearl Harbor on you

242
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 5: what they got a national emergency?

243
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:46,359
Speaker 2: Bear attacks in Japan Bear exactly.

244
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 4: Right, there's one. Yeah, Japanese bear attack. The name of

245
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 4: my new band. We're going to tour with Toad the

246
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 4: wet Sprocket And what's another good multi word panic at

247
00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 4: the disco. Yeah, in an all wordy banned festival, Japanese betack.

248
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 2: What an interesting situation.

249
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:11,960
Speaker 5: They rarely used their military for anything. We trained for

250
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 5: a Chinese invasion or attack in the United States. Again,

251
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 5: we've trained for all these things, but and got a

252
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,320
Speaker 5: lot of how to handle bears.

253
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 4: While we're watching China, our bears rose up. Yeah, you

254
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:26,520
Speaker 4: know what, Donald JA got very little credit when he

255
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 4: was in Asia a couple of weeks ago for brow beaten.

256
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 4: A number of our allies to spend more on defense

257
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 4: for God's sake, to get beefed up, gets strong because

258
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 4: they're gonna need it because of bear tas No No,

259
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 4: I was thinking more in terms of China.

260
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 5: But a couple of things I want to get on

261
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 5: before we have to take a break again. I do

262
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 5: want to get into this person from the Heritage Foundation

263
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 5: that resigned yesterday so unhappy about the leader of that

264
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 5: conservative organation backing Tucker and Nick Fuentes the way he did.

265
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 5: Now he has apologized even further. That's quite the interesting

266
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 5: inter intro a conservative argument that's going on there.

267
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 4: But and it's kind of a cool thing too, because

268
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 4: we police are crazies, unlike the left.

269
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 2: We've been talking about.

270
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 5: Affordability is like the word of the last forty eight

271
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 5: hours with the election everything like that Trump administration just

272
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 5: announced there's going to be a big weight loss drug

273
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 5: price announcement coming today. That is classic Trump right there.

274
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 5: Nation of fat people who want their fat drugs cheaper,

275
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 5: that's what Trumb's thinking. And I'm going to announce that

276
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 5: we're going to cut those weight down and you can

277
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 5: afford your don't be fat drug.

278
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 4: That's a nice way to step on yesterday's headlines. Yeah, yeah,

279
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:41,880
Speaker 4: that's a good one.

280
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 5: Came across this who's in charge of security at the

281
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 5: Louver me The Louver Museum's surveillance password was Louver.

282
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 2: Holy crap. They shouldn't have put me in charge because

283
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 2: that's a way things. Isn't that something that's like the

284
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 2: guest password at your dentist's office, right?

285
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 6: You know?

286
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:09,400
Speaker 2: Wow?

287
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 4: And that's the security password.

288
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 2: That's pretty funny. How much time I got, Michael, depends

289
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 2: how you keep eating. Yeah, about one minute, though.

290
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 5: I know we came up with a word for this,

291
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,520
Speaker 5: when you're flummished by some sort of technical thing and

292
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 5: you just and it's the feeling you get when you're

293
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 5: having that, it's just it's its only unique feeling.

294
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 4: I think we decided on texhaustion.

295
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 5: I was trying to pay a bill online yesterday and

296
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 5: you go, you had to go through like and you

297
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 5: have to pay it this way, and I had to

298
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 5: go through like ninety steps to get to the end.

299
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 5: It took probably fifteen minutes at least. Wow, you know,

300
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 5: press one for this, press two for that, and then

301
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:48,440
Speaker 5: they say it and blah blah blah. And at the

302
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 5: end it was we'll send you a code. You have

303
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 5: to type in the code to show that you and

304
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 5: you know this is the right phone. And every time

305
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 5: I typed in the code, it would read back the

306
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 5: wrong numbers. I would type in six oh three nine

307
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:58,920
Speaker 5: and it would say five oh two six is the

308
00:16:58,960 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 5: wrong number.

309
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 2: I typed in, you bastards.

310
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 5: Anyway, I did it like three or four times, and

311
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 5: I was getting so mad.

312
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 2: I thought I was going to punch a hole in

313
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 2: the wall. That feeling is my least favorite feeling.

314
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, the scourge of the modern man.

315
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,400
Speaker 2: There's nobody to complain to. That's what's so mad thing.

316
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:19,639
Speaker 6: About it, Armstrong and Getty.

317
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:24,160
Speaker 11: The impact here will be huge for the American traveler.

318
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 11: And then Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy just said if there

319
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,880
Speaker 11: is no deal ending the government shutdown, this policy will

320
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:31,960
Speaker 11: go into effects.

321
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 2: Starting Friday morning.

322
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 11: To put this simply, the FAA is imposing a ten

323
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 11: percent cut the flights at forty major airports across the country.

324
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 11: Those specific airports remain undisclosed. So what the FIA is

325
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:47,560
Speaker 11: talking about here is equivalent to canceling about forty five

326
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:48,680
Speaker 11: hundred flights a day.

327
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, that was undisclosed. The list is now out and

328
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,159
Speaker 5: we'll get to that in a second. Forty five hundred

329
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 5: flights a day starting tomorrow. Forty airports, as Joe predicted,

330
00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,440
Speaker 5: it's not going to be, you know, tiny little airports.

331
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:01,160
Speaker 2: I'm not I'm going to read all forty. I only

332
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:01,879
Speaker 2: need to hit you with.

333
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 5: The couple Hartsfield in Atlanta, Denver International, the Big I

334
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 5: Report in Chicago, lax I can go through the whole list,

335
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 5: but that should be enough to let you realize it's

336
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 5: going to be a giant mess.

337
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 4: Well, and I guarantee Phoenix and Chance K you're in there,

338
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:26,959
Speaker 4: and they're all on here. Every bigger report you can

339
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 4: possibly think of SFO.

340
00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:32,640
Speaker 2: You know, if I'm going to do local Oakland International.

341
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 5: Somewhere around forty five hundred flights, it'll be canceled tomorrow.

342
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 5: This is when the shutdown has reached the Okay, that's

343
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,359
Speaker 5: enough point, I think for everybody.

344
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 2: Yes, And there's going to be some political pressure now.

345
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 5: Mark Alpern wrote in his newsletter he doesn't think the

346
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,679
Speaker 5: political pressure will start to mount until it gets closer

347
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:55,120
Speaker 5: to Thanksgiving. But every day we get closer to the biggest,

348
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 5: biggest travel a week of the year, more and more

349
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 5: people are going to get angry or anger. You can't

350
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 5: have forty five hundred flights canceled every day for three weeks, though,

351
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:05,200
Speaker 5: can you?

352
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:05,359
Speaker 4: No?

353
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,000
Speaker 2: And I disagree with Mark.

354
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 4: My reaction was immediate and strong to the news. I

355
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,160
Speaker 4: don't need it to happen for a few days before

356
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 4: I realize what it means.

357
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,120
Speaker 5: I think this is gonna be the forcing mechanism what's

358
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 5: interesting is there's been a bunch of reporting that the

359
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:23,360
Speaker 5: Democrats were ready to.

360
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 8: Cave.

361
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 5: I don't know if that's fair or not, but give

362
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:31,040
Speaker 5: in and and enough of them, we're going to come

363
00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 5: across to sign on to open the government back up again.

364
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:42,200
Speaker 5: Until they had such a overwhelmingly good day on Tuesday,

365
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:46,680
Speaker 5: bigger than they even thought. And then enough people inside

366
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,360
Speaker 5: the caucus said, wait a second, we got the upper hand,

367
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 5: they're on the back foot. Now's not the time to cave.

368
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 5: And so they decided we ain't got a cave. And

369
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 5: now we're back to square one, with both sides thinking

370
00:19:57,960 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 5: the other side.

371
00:19:58,600 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 2: Is getting the worst of it.

372
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 5: It's interesting on the the same day that Trump said

373
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,439
Speaker 5: and what was reported as a very quiet room when

374
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,360
Speaker 5: he came out and said, we lost because of the shutdown.

375
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 5: We're getting blamed for the shutdown. That's why we lost.

376
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,120
Speaker 5: We need to end this. And everybody, all the Republicans

377
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:15,880
Speaker 5: of the norm are like dead quiet, like uh oh,

378
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 5: the President has just said it's our fault.

379
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,879
Speaker 2: So where do we go now? I don't even agree.

380
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 4: I mean, it may have been a factor, but please

381
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:28,320
Speaker 4: span Berger didn't beat winsome Seers in Virginia because of

382
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:28,880
Speaker 4: the shutdown.

383
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:29,840
Speaker 2: I don't agree either.

384
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:33,480
Speaker 5: The real point is that you know he took any

385
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 5: cover they have for blaming the Democrats. I mean, if

386
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 5: the biggest political voice in America as a Republican, says

387
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 5: it's our fault, doesn't help your argument, right.

388
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 4: I Actually I was listening to NPR to punish myself

389
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 4: for the bad things I've done. And they had a

390
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:56,359
Speaker 4: moderate congress guy from Colorado on and he's part of

391
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 4: the problem solver's caucus, and they're trying to come to

392
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:02,159
Speaker 4: some sort of common rise and reop the government. But

393
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 4: and I thought, Okay, surely, dude, you will say something

394
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:13,640
Speaker 4: like the Republicans are just for following what the Democrats

395
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 4: passed two years ago. The Democrats have said no, no, no, no, no,

396
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 4: we want more to reopen the government.

397
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:21,800
Speaker 2: But he never enunciated that.

398
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,760
Speaker 4: I'm not sure I've heard any Republican enunciate that with

399
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 4: any clarity.

400
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,639
Speaker 2: I haven't either. Yeah, you're bad at your jobs.

401
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 4: I realize you know your job mostly is to legislate,

402
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,120
Speaker 4: but let's face it, the big part of your job

403
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:37,159
Speaker 4: is to get elected and to communicate with the people

404
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 4: and help them understand your policies and the Republican.

405
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:42,239
Speaker 2: Party is just bad at it.

406
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 5: You know, I could go through the list of airports

407
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 5: that they're going to cut ten percent of flights just

408
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:47,479
Speaker 5: based on cities.

409
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:47,880
Speaker 2: Were on.

410
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 5: Salt Lake City International, San Francisco, Saddle Tacoma, San Diego, Phoenix, Portland.

411
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 2: We don't know any states in the Chicago area. Yeah,

412
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 2: oh yeah, okay, under for Chicago. O' sorry, sorry for

413
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:05,919
Speaker 2: saying shout.

414
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 4: Out to our friends in the Yeah, Oakland. Hansome is

415
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:10,720
Speaker 4: shaking his head.

416
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:14,399
Speaker 2: I know he's angry with me. Yes again as usual.

417
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:18,120
Speaker 2: Oh there he is, glowering into the camera. Lax Vegas.

418
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,879
Speaker 5: Yes, I could go on and on, but yeah, all

419
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:24,200
Speaker 5: the bins, all the big airports are cutting ten percent

420
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 5: of their flights.

421
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 2: That's many hundreds of flights. Oh god. And you know

422
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 2: how that affects.

423
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,160
Speaker 5: Things, So everybody, people that have to get somewhere are

424
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,560
Speaker 5: going to have to get onto a different flight, which

425
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:39,120
Speaker 5: makes those more crowded, which makes all the flights more expensive.

426
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 5: And it's cascading is the word of the day. Joe

427
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 5: came up with on this whole thing. And people decide,

428
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,120
Speaker 5: screw all drive and all the rental cars, are.

429
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 4: Used up right well, And picture flying during the holiday

430
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 4: season and all those empty seats. Wait a minute, there

431
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:57,199
Speaker 4: aren't any. So what are you going to do with

432
00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 4: the ten percent of air travel that now has no seat?

433
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 4: Where are you going to put them in the overhead bin?

434
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:09,240
Speaker 4: Have them walk? They'll they'll have to go days later,

435
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 4: which is not the way holidays work.

436
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:15,280
Speaker 5: Really, No, it's not you show up Sunday morning for Thanksgiving.

437
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:18,640
Speaker 5: It's not the same thing. I uh don't think that's

438
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 5: gonna be a problem. I would be shocked if this

439
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 5: doesn't get worked out in the next forty eight hours.

440
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 2: I hope you're right.

441
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,600
Speaker 5: I just don't think there's a chance they're gonna let

442
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 5: forty five hundred flights a day be canceled and put

443
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:34,440
Speaker 5: up with the noise that that is. No parties, Schumer

444
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:38,479
Speaker 5: and Trumper, whoever who is leading this goat rodeo on

445
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:40,240
Speaker 5: either side, are going to get together and say, Okay,

446
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 5: what do we do? How do we I'll let you

447
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 5: save face, you let me save face.

448
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:44,199
Speaker 2: We got to end this.

449
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 4: I'll say something bad about AOC once a week. No,

450
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:51,439
Speaker 4: that would actually help her, you know, because that's what

451
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,920
Speaker 4: this is all about, is Schumer getting primary by AOC

452
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:59,719
Speaker 4: and them thinking, yeah, the expiration of our extra subsidies

453
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 4: to a Obamacare which we signed into law, fighting against

454
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:06,960
Speaker 4: that and claiming it's something evil the Republicans are doing

455
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:08,720
Speaker 4: that looks really good for us.

456
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 2: So it's all just dishonest politics.

457
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,359
Speaker 4: But again, without good messaging, you can't to communicate that

458
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 4: to people. But I suspect you're right that it will

459
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 4: end by the end of the week.

460
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 2: I don't know.

461
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,640
Speaker 4: I'm just so discouraged by the state of our government.

462
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:27,399
Speaker 5: How would you not be, and you know, and just

463
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 5: our politics and our culture and everything like that to

464
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 5: that point. Yesterday, I was in my liberal college town,

465
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 5: like all college towns are, and I was going to

466
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:43,399
Speaker 5: pick up a friend of mine. We were going to

467
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,160
Speaker 5: go eat lunch, and he said, drive your cyber truck.

468
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 5: It'll drive my neighbors crazy. And then he told me

469
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 5: a story about a friend of his from one of

470
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 5: your red counties in California showed up in his pickup

471
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,240
Speaker 5: truck that had like Trump stickers on on it and

472
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,720
Speaker 5: all that sort of stuff. I mean, like a full

473
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 5: on Maga stickered up truck was parked in his driveway,

474
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 5: and he said the neighbors talk to his wife because

475
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:12,880
Speaker 5: they didn't want to talk to him because I knew

476
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,439
Speaker 5: he was sympathetic toward to God. Neighbors talk to his

477
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 5: wife and we're having a conversation of like, what do

478
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:17,840
Speaker 5: we do?

479
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 2: What should we do?

480
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 5: His response was, what you do is you ignore somebody

481
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 5: else's truck in somebody else's driveway. I mean, what do

482
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:28,800
Speaker 5: you mean what you do? But I just thought that

483
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:30,840
Speaker 5: was such a reach down.

484
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:35,240
Speaker 4: Get hold of your panties, pull them in this direction,

485
00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 4: then that direction, and that should unwadd them.

486
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:43,359
Speaker 5: Now each side likes to claim the other side is worse,

487
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:47,399

Speaker 5: the right think the people on the left are wrong.

489
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 5: People on the left think the people on the right

490
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 5: are evil. You think I'm evil because if I see

491
00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:00,520

560
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:15,720

596
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:34,120
Speaker 4: flee to Turkey because their buddies in Michigan had been arrested.

597
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:39,320

00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 4: up gay bars with the guys who got arrested the

599
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:47,640

Speaker 4: others do that kept us protected.

605
00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 2: Uh.

606
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 4: Anyway, on that topic, here's somebody who has only dimly

607
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 4: aware of Jennifer Welch. She is, she was known Bravo TV,

608
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,080
Speaker 4: one of those home many home shows.

609
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 2: But she's a.

610
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 4: Way way lefty, like a bitter, nasty, angry lefty. In

611
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 4: her far left podcast, I think it's We've had it.

612
00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,200
Speaker 4: I think is the name of it is a big

613
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:34,920
Speaker 4: deal on the far left. I guess this audio is

614
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 4: not great. I will interpret it as necessary. Here's Jennifer Welch.

615
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 12: Means live.

616
00:32:56,280 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 4: Journey. Okay, So what she said was, look, we're surrounded

617
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 4: by a lot of white people. Americans have no culture

618
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:17,440
Speaker 4: except for multiculturalism. White people need to be taught this

619
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:21,080
Speaker 4: crusty white people need to learn how to embrace it.

620
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:22,840
Speaker 2: So she's a self hating white person.

621
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:29,960
Speaker 4: There is no American culture except for modern multiculturalism, says

622
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:38,720
Speaker 4: this Jenner for Welsh Monster, America hating zenophile ignoramus. The

623
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 4: idea that we don't have a culture. That the ignorance

624
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 4: is astonishing, never mind the political perversity of it. American

625
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 4: culture has been so dominant both you know culture as

626
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:01,960
Speaker 4: people refer to it, arts, and entertainment that sort of thing.

627
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:08,839
Speaker 4: But American political culture, the culture of free speech and religion, entrepreneurialism,

628
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:13,440
Speaker 4: individual rights, all of it has been so incredibly successful

629
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,840
Speaker 4: and popular around the world. People like you used to say,

630
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:20,320
Speaker 4: our culture is too dominant in the world. We need

631
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:25,000
Speaker 4: to not dominate other cultures being less entertaining or something.

632
00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 5: The fact that you can go to any corner of

633
00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:29,080
Speaker 5: the world and there's a McDonald's and somebody wearing Levi's

634
00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 5: jeans waiting in line for a big mac is, you.

635
00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 4: Know, and people yearning to breathe free and speak freely

636
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 4: and come to the United States literally by the billions.

637
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:44,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, because of our culture. Maybe the thing we take.

638
00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 5: The most for granted is the lack of corruption in

639
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:51,000
Speaker 5: our culture compared to other countries, because man, that's a

640
00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:54,080
Speaker 5: hard thing to get going, yeah, and a tough thing

641
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:55,239
Speaker 5: to get back if you lose it.

642
00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:56,959
Speaker 2: Yeah.

643
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,319
Speaker 4: And one more time, and I'm borrowing a little from

644
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:02,440
Speaker 4: Samuel Hunting on this, but culture here's how Here's what

645
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:06,359
Speaker 4: culture is. It's how we do things around here. It's

646
00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:09,840
Speaker 4: not just your native dance and your traditional clothing that

647
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,920
Speaker 4: you throw on at your national holidays. It is the

648
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 4: relationship between people and their government, between husbands and wives,

649
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:21,560
Speaker 4: children and their teachers. It is our arts and entertainment,

650
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:24,160
Speaker 4: but it's also free speech is part of our culture.

651
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:27,000
Speaker 4: The freedom of religion is an incredibly important part of

652
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,840
Speaker 4: our culture. The fact that we don't have government corruption

653
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,520
Speaker 4: on the level of other people. How we do things

654
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 4: around here is our culture. And for this malignant ignoramus

655
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:41,040
Speaker 4: to claim that Americans have no culture except for multiculturalism,

656
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:44,880
Speaker 4: she's evil, evil and ignorant.

657
00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:48,720
Speaker 2: What was the name of your band? Gonna be Japanese

658
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 2: Bear Attack? Japanese Bear Attack. That's right, Yeah, I'm gotta

00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:06,319
Speaker 4: is beset by a bear.

663
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:09,280

Speaker 2: close to super Moon the other day.

00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:15,080

666
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,719
Speaker 5: want to work that into hour three. The way that

667
00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:20,640
Speaker 5: seems to affect people. According to a couple of medical

668
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 5: professionals I talk to, I know, seems crazy, doesn't I
