WEBVTT - Habba Dabba Dabba!!!

0:00:02.200 --> 0:00:06.520
<v Speaker 1>Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

0:00:06.559 --> 0:00:11.440
<v Speaker 1>Washington Broadcast Center. Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty, I'm strong.

0:00:11.160 --> 0:00:17.599
<v Speaker 2>And gatty, and he armstrong and yetty.

0:00:25.160 --> 0:00:28.200
<v Speaker 3>News reports have claimed that I am anti vaccine or

0:00:28.320 --> 0:00:29.120
<v Speaker 3>any industry.

0:00:29.480 --> 0:00:30.160
<v Speaker 2>I am neither.

0:00:30.800 --> 0:00:42.920
<v Speaker 3>I am pro safety.

0:00:38.600 --> 0:00:49.879
<v Speaker 2>Handsome fireworks, fire works, Hanson, you Obsessans Kennedy. I am

0:00:49.920 --> 0:00:50.720
<v Speaker 2>pro safety.

0:00:51.000 --> 0:00:54.160
<v Speaker 3>I worked for years to raise awareness about the mercury

0:00:55.080 --> 0:00:58.400
<v Speaker 3>and toxic chemicals and fish, and nobody calls me.

0:00:58.960 --> 0:01:02.040
<v Speaker 2>Is obsessed with pro testers interrupting. It's just I don't

0:01:02.120 --> 0:01:05.320
<v Speaker 2>sound it fascinating. I find it the least bit interesting

0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:09.240
<v Speaker 2>when somebody stands up to and then they lead them out. Okay, fine,

0:01:09.440 --> 0:01:12.800
<v Speaker 2>you don't think it's interesting that a single human being

0:01:13.200 --> 0:01:14.800
<v Speaker 2>was willing to shout no.

0:01:15.000 --> 0:01:18.360
<v Speaker 4>I find the protests, unless something happens, the least interesting

0:01:18.400 --> 0:01:22.680
<v Speaker 4>thing going on today. I have been watching some of

0:01:22.720 --> 0:01:26.320
<v Speaker 4>this during the commercial breaks RFK Junior being grilled and whatnot,

0:01:26.400 --> 0:01:31.839
<v Speaker 4>and there's a lot of interesting stuff there, mostly from

0:01:31.959 --> 0:01:37.120
<v Speaker 4>the He has gone around making really strong statements about

0:01:37.200 --> 0:01:40.360
<v Speaker 4>stuff because and I'll be I'll give the most generous

0:01:40.440 --> 0:01:42.640
<v Speaker 4>version I can, because it's a good way to get

0:01:42.640 --> 0:01:44.080
<v Speaker 4>attention and get a reaction.

0:01:44.200 --> 0:01:46.160
<v Speaker 2>And I don't mean just get a reaction from a

0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:50.400
<v Speaker 2>kind of childish way, but it's a good way to, like,

0:01:50.760 --> 0:01:53.160
<v Speaker 2>you know, get the argument going. It's sort of what

0:01:53.320 --> 0:01:55.920
<v Speaker 2>it works for Trump. I think we should get out

0:01:55.960 --> 0:01:56.320
<v Speaker 2>of NATO.

0:01:56.840 --> 0:01:58.720
<v Speaker 4>I don't think he had any attention get out of NATO,

0:01:59.120 --> 0:02:01.680
<v Speaker 4>but he starts strong hiring him for donating, you know,

0:02:01.880 --> 0:02:06.440
<v Speaker 4>donating spending more of the money that they had more

0:02:06.480 --> 0:02:08.960
<v Speaker 4>mandated to spend. You know, you get the conversation going.

0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:12.640
<v Speaker 4>That's not the way everybody handles these things. I'm not

0:02:12.680 --> 0:02:15.480
<v Speaker 4>sure it's the best way, but Trump makes that work

0:02:15.520 --> 0:02:17.360
<v Speaker 4>all the time. And RFK Junior is doing a lot

0:02:17.400 --> 0:02:19.560
<v Speaker 4>of the same sort of stuff, but he is having

0:02:19.600 --> 0:02:21.800
<v Speaker 4>to answer for a whole bunch of these things that

0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:24.520
<v Speaker 4>he has said over the years. We got a good

0:02:24.520 --> 0:02:26.079
<v Speaker 4>one coming up in a little bit where he is

0:02:26.120 --> 0:02:30.760
<v Speaker 4>specifically asked about his famous statement from just like a

0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:35.400
<v Speaker 4>year ago, sixteen months ago on the Lex Friedman podcast,

0:02:35.400 --> 0:02:37.560
<v Speaker 4>where he said there's no safe and effective vaccine.

0:02:37.560 --> 0:02:40.760
<v Speaker 2>We'll get that one on for you. He also has

0:02:40.800 --> 0:02:43.720
<v Speaker 2>said at various times, if there's one thing I could

0:02:43.800 --> 0:02:45.520
<v Speaker 2>redo in my life, it'd be go back and not

0:02:45.600 --> 0:02:52.320
<v Speaker 2>have my children vaccinated because his cousin, Caroline, Sweet Caroline

0:02:52.400 --> 0:02:55.280
<v Speaker 2>Kennedy came out yesterday and said he goes around telling

0:02:55.320 --> 0:02:57.480
<v Speaker 2>you not to get your kids vaxed, and he got

0:02:57.480 --> 0:02:59.720
<v Speaker 2>his kids vexed. He says it's the biggest mistake of

0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:02.960
<v Speaker 2>his life life. All right, I don't know. Well, what

0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:07.760
<v Speaker 2>is proof of that is? We have other Kennedy clupes

0:03:07.960 --> 0:03:14.160
<v Speaker 2>that aren't protests many. Okay, I want to hear some anything, Yes,

0:03:14.240 --> 0:03:15.160
<v Speaker 2>start with twenty Michael.

0:03:15.520 --> 0:03:20.040
<v Speaker 3>Today, American's overall health is in grievous condition. Over seventy

0:03:20.040 --> 0:03:23.200
<v Speaker 3>percent of adults and a third of children are overweight

0:03:23.639 --> 0:03:28.120
<v Speaker 3>or obese. Diabetes is ten times more prevalent than it

0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:31.720
<v Speaker 3>was during the nineteen sixties. Cancer among young people is

0:03:31.840 --> 0:03:36.200
<v Speaker 3>rising by one or two percent a year. Autoimmune diseases,

0:03:36.320 --> 0:03:45.120
<v Speaker 3>neurodevelopmental disorders, Alzheimer's, asthma, ADHD, depression, addiction, and a host

0:03:45.160 --> 0:03:48.520
<v Speaker 3>of other physical and mental health conditions are all on

0:03:48.560 --> 0:03:50.800
<v Speaker 3>the rise, some of them exponentially.

0:03:52.000 --> 0:03:53.320
<v Speaker 2>The United States.

0:03:53.040 --> 0:03:56.120
<v Speaker 3>Has worse health than any other developed nation. Yeah, we

0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:58.960
<v Speaker 3>spend more on healthcare, at least double and in some

0:03:59.080 --> 0:04:01.800
<v Speaker 3>cases triple as other countries.

0:04:05.480 --> 0:04:07.040
<v Speaker 2>That's what I was talking about at the very beginning

0:04:07.040 --> 0:04:09.520
<v Speaker 2>of the show. He regularly says we have the most

0:04:09.560 --> 0:04:11.520
<v Speaker 2>unhealthy children in the world. Is that true or not?

0:04:11.680 --> 0:04:13.320
<v Speaker 2>And I would love it if they got down to

0:04:13.400 --> 0:04:16.000
<v Speaker 2>the brass tax of that. And if that's true, why

0:04:16.040 --> 0:04:18.440
<v Speaker 2>the hell is that true? I happen to be doing

0:04:18.440 --> 0:04:22.360
<v Speaker 2>a medium dive during the commercial break into some of

0:04:22.400 --> 0:04:25.159
<v Speaker 2>those statistics, and boy, it gets a little hairy. It

0:04:25.200 --> 0:04:28.240
<v Speaker 2>depends which stat you're talking about. But there are number

0:04:28.279 --> 0:04:31.640
<v Speaker 2>stats like frequently you'll hear about how America has the

0:04:31.760 --> 0:04:36.400
<v Speaker 2>highest infant mortality rate among development Western economies, and that's

0:04:36.520 --> 0:04:38.920
<v Speaker 2>it's because we have a different standard for reporting them.

0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:42.320
<v Speaker 2>Because we are so good at saving premis. We count them.

0:04:42.560 --> 0:04:46.599
<v Speaker 2>Other countries they don't count them at all. It's easy

0:04:46.640 --> 0:04:49.160
<v Speaker 2>to manipulate stats like that, which it's not to say

0:04:49.160 --> 0:04:51.320
<v Speaker 2>our systems perfect. There doesn't need reform of COACT. I

0:04:51.680 --> 0:04:54.320
<v Speaker 2>do know about that particular stat but just in general,

0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:59.640
<v Speaker 2>do we have more ADHD anxiety among our kids stuff

0:04:59.680 --> 0:05:01.680
<v Speaker 2>like that than any other country in the world. I'd

0:05:01.720 --> 0:05:04.280
<v Speaker 2>love to know that, or even if it's all Western

0:05:04.320 --> 0:05:07.480
<v Speaker 2>societies that have the same lifestyle as ours, and it's

0:05:07.480 --> 0:05:10.120
<v Speaker 2>its skyrocketed the way we all know it has. Yeah,

0:05:10.160 --> 0:05:14.000
<v Speaker 2>that should be like the highest priority to figure that out.

0:05:14.279 --> 0:05:16.440
<v Speaker 2>Two things that are in conflict with each other, because

0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:19.800
<v Speaker 2>that's okay, that's what life is all about. Number One,

0:05:20.279 --> 0:05:25.160
<v Speaker 2>RFK does some pretty good work in identifying, you know,

0:05:25.200 --> 0:05:30.160
<v Speaker 2>trends and problems and pointing out that we really need

0:05:30.200 --> 0:05:32.680
<v Speaker 2>to deal with him as a society. That doesn't mean

0:05:32.760 --> 0:05:35.440
<v Speaker 2>he is the right guy to be in charge of it,

0:05:35.880 --> 0:05:37.839
<v Speaker 2>but that's what the senators are looking into. I have

0:05:37.880 --> 0:05:40.240
<v Speaker 2>some issues with the guy, but that's fine. But the

0:05:40.279 --> 0:05:43.160
<v Speaker 2>second thing is kind of in the other direction. He

0:05:43.240 --> 0:05:47.359
<v Speaker 2>does make a really good point that we have had

0:05:48.040 --> 0:05:51.920
<v Speaker 2>person after person, administration after administration just kind of go

0:05:52.000 --> 0:05:55.880
<v Speaker 2>along to get along in spite of these horrific trends,

0:05:56.880 --> 0:05:59.920
<v Speaker 2>and that the idea of zero sum budgeting or shake

0:06:00.240 --> 0:06:03.720
<v Speaker 2>things up or starting from square one or reassessing everything

0:06:03.760 --> 0:06:07.760
<v Speaker 2>we're doing is so foreign to Washington, d C. That's

0:06:07.800 --> 0:06:10.760
<v Speaker 2>the opposite of DC culture, which is go along to

0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:12.239
<v Speaker 2>get along and grow your turf.

0:06:12.520 --> 0:06:17.800
<v Speaker 4>How would there not be some sort of pressure from

0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:20.640
<v Speaker 4>a company that's making billions of dollars off of their

0:06:20.720 --> 0:06:26.200
<v Speaker 4>vaccine to not look into vaccines to hey, leave the

0:06:26.240 --> 0:06:27.040
<v Speaker 4>vaccines alone.

0:06:27.120 --> 0:06:31.400
<v Speaker 2>How would that? You know, It's just it flies in

0:06:31.440 --> 0:06:35.560
<v Speaker 2>the face of human nature, doesn't it. Yeah? Well right, yeah,

0:06:35.600 --> 0:06:37.480
<v Speaker 2>And I think one of our case points. And again

0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:39.240
<v Speaker 2>this doesn't prove he's the right guy for the job,

0:06:39.240 --> 0:06:41.360
<v Speaker 2>but I think he's right about it is to a

0:06:41.440 --> 0:06:44.640
<v Speaker 2>large extent when it comes to big pharma or big

0:06:44.680 --> 0:06:48.440
<v Speaker 2>food or the various other you know, the hospital monopolies, whatever,

0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:52.880
<v Speaker 2>it's like there's a defensive attorney, but there's no prosecuting

0:06:52.920 --> 0:06:56.760
<v Speaker 2>attorney because the CDC isn't it and the FDA they're

0:06:57.080 --> 0:07:01.320
<v Speaker 2>known to be kind of suspect in certain ways. And

0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:05.400
<v Speaker 2>what he's saying is we needed a prosecuting attorney who's

0:07:05.560 --> 0:07:10.320
<v Speaker 2>not a persecuting attorney, but a prosecuting attorney representing we

0:07:10.480 --> 0:07:13.480
<v Speaker 2>the people, to make sure we're getting a square deal. Something.

0:07:13.520 --> 0:07:15.160
<v Speaker 2>Can ask him about the bear in the park. I

0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:18.520
<v Speaker 2>think that'll come up. Yeah, they'll ask him. Is that

0:07:18.600 --> 0:07:21.600
<v Speaker 2>the funniest thing ever? Because I think it was Okay,

0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:24.000
<v Speaker 2>Hanson grabbed this one. This is a good one. He

0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:25.640
<v Speaker 2>just whispered in my ear in.

0:07:25.640 --> 0:07:29.040
<v Speaker 5>A podcast in twenty twenty. You said, and I quote,

0:07:29.160 --> 0:07:33.720
<v Speaker 5>you would do anything, pay anything to go back in

0:07:33.840 --> 0:07:39.520
<v Speaker 5>time and not vaccinate your kids. Mister Kennedy, all of

0:07:39.600 --> 0:07:45.960
<v Speaker 5>these things cannot be true. So are you lying to

0:07:46.080 --> 0:07:49.120
<v Speaker 5>Congress today when you say you are a pro vaccine

0:07:49.640 --> 0:07:52.040
<v Speaker 5>or did you lie on all those podcasts?

0:07:52.080 --> 0:07:54.960
<v Speaker 2>We have all of this on tape, by the way, Yeah,

0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:55.920
<v Speaker 2>a senator.

0:07:56.000 --> 0:08:01.240
<v Speaker 3>As you know, because it's been repeatedly debunked, that statement

0:08:01.240 --> 0:08:03.880
<v Speaker 3>that I made on the Lex Friedman podcast was a

0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:05.120
<v Speaker 3>fragment of this statement.

0:08:06.080 --> 0:08:07.320
<v Speaker 2>He asked me, and.

0:08:07.280 --> 0:08:11.680
<v Speaker 3>Anybody who actually goes and looks at that podcast and

0:08:11.960 --> 0:08:14.720
<v Speaker 3>we'll see this. He asked me, are there vaccines that

0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:17.560
<v Speaker 3>are saving effective? And I said to him some of

0:08:17.600 --> 0:08:21.200
<v Speaker 3>the live iris vaccines are, And I said there are

0:08:21.240 --> 0:08:23.840
<v Speaker 3>no vaccines that are saving effective. And I was going

0:08:23.920 --> 0:08:28.160
<v Speaker 3>to continue for every person, every medicine has people who

0:08:28.200 --> 0:08:33.400
<v Speaker 3>are sensitive to them, including vaccines, right, So he interrupted

0:08:33.400 --> 0:08:37.280
<v Speaker 3>me at that point. I've corrected it many times, including

0:08:37.280 --> 0:08:40.240
<v Speaker 3>on national TV. You know about this, Senator Widen, So

0:08:40.320 --> 0:08:42.600
<v Speaker 3>bringing this up right now is dishonest.

0:08:42.840 --> 0:08:45.160
<v Speaker 4>So I would like to listen to that because that

0:08:45.600 --> 0:08:49.400
<v Speaker 4>sounds like exactly the whole Trump bloodbath thing.

0:08:50.360 --> 0:08:55.679
<v Speaker 2>Yes, that's what it sounds like. Yeah, I got to

0:08:55.679 --> 0:08:57.480
<v Speaker 2>tell you, as a citizen and I'm sure there are

0:08:57.480 --> 0:09:01.840
<v Speaker 2>folks listening who feel the same. I feel like RFK

0:09:02.080 --> 0:09:03.880
<v Speaker 2>Junior is a bit of a loose cannon and a

0:09:03.920 --> 0:09:07.960
<v Speaker 2>bomb truck, a chucker and maybe half a con man

0:09:08.280 --> 0:09:11.920
<v Speaker 2>who's right about a lot of stuff. And the people

0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:15.800
<v Speaker 2>on the other side are utterly dishonest too, or greed heads.

0:09:16.960 --> 0:09:22.440
<v Speaker 2>And I'm just not sure what to believe. See, I

0:09:22.440 --> 0:09:24.360
<v Speaker 2>don't want to say he has said in the past.

0:09:24.400 --> 0:09:25.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna say there are claims that he said in

0:09:25.960 --> 0:09:28.439
<v Speaker 2>the past, because sometimes things aren't taken out of context.

0:09:28.440 --> 0:09:32.160
<v Speaker 2>We saw it endlessly with Trump during the campaign, where

0:09:31.960 --> 0:09:35.880
<v Speaker 2>the mainstream media would state Donald Trump promised a blood

0:09:35.880 --> 0:09:37.439
<v Speaker 2>bath if he loses. No, he didn't.

0:09:37.640 --> 0:09:40.000
<v Speaker 4>He said the electric car market would be a blood

0:09:40.000 --> 0:09:43.320
<v Speaker 4>bath because it's an economic term. I mean, as big

0:09:43.360 --> 0:09:46.360
<v Speaker 4>a lie as you could possibly have in terms of

0:09:46.480 --> 0:09:49.200
<v Speaker 4>presenting information to people. So maybe that's going on in

0:09:49.240 --> 0:09:54.440
<v Speaker 4>some of these cases here. But which of these stances

0:09:54.520 --> 0:09:56.520
<v Speaker 4>was I about to refer to on the abortion when

0:09:56.520 --> 0:09:58.400
<v Speaker 4>this just happened. And maybe we'll get the tape later,

0:09:58.440 --> 0:10:01.840
<v Speaker 4>but this just happened, RFK Junior. I agree with President

0:10:01.880 --> 0:10:04.880
<v Speaker 4>Trump that every abortion is a tragedy. So he's trying

0:10:04.920 --> 0:10:10.400
<v Speaker 4>to soften his stance on being pro choice.

0:10:11.840 --> 0:10:14.240
<v Speaker 2>Maybe we'll hear some of that coming up. He does

0:10:14.280 --> 0:10:15.920
<v Speaker 2>have a number of those issues out there, as I

0:10:15.960 --> 0:10:18.360
<v Speaker 2>mentioned earlier, Mark Alpern in his newsletter, and he talks

0:10:18.400 --> 0:10:21.560
<v Speaker 2>to a lot of senators. He believes it's three quarters

0:10:21.679 --> 0:10:25.319
<v Speaker 2>likely that RFK Junior does get confirmed today, gets enough

0:10:25.960 --> 0:10:28.040
<v Speaker 2>or out of this whole process today and tomorrow gets

0:10:28.120 --> 0:10:31.000
<v Speaker 2>enough Republican votes to get across them, which is surprising

0:10:31.000 --> 0:10:38.280
<v Speaker 2>to me. Right, Yeah, and certainly it could be said

0:10:39.120 --> 0:10:44.480
<v Speaker 2>the President nominated the guy. He's really smart, unless there

0:10:44.520 --> 0:10:49.560
<v Speaker 2>are just glaring deficiencies. Give him a try, see what happens. Well,

0:10:49.600 --> 0:10:51.440
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's not like we're appointing him king.

0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:53.959
<v Speaker 4>Well, right, I don't like this idea that if he

0:10:54.040 --> 0:10:58.440
<v Speaker 4>gets confirmed, he will all automatically announce no more vaccines

0:10:58.480 --> 0:11:02.280
<v Speaker 4>and now kids aren't getting there LEO vaccine and nobody's

0:11:02.320 --> 0:11:03.120
<v Speaker 4>going to school.

0:11:04.160 --> 0:11:08.920
<v Speaker 2>No, that's not gonna happen, So calm down. Yeah, yeah,

0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:12.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm not comfortable with the guy anyway, But I don't know.

0:11:12.600 --> 0:11:14.920
<v Speaker 2>It would take the rest of my week to go

0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:19.080
<v Speaker 2>through every claim and counterclaim the bombs he's chucked. Then

0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:22.280
<v Speaker 2>when he walked it back and what he actually believes.

0:11:22.520 --> 0:11:26.880
<v Speaker 2>I don't know that the waters become so clouded, which

0:11:26.920 --> 0:11:29.880
<v Speaker 2>is the actual object of misinformation, by the way, and

0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:33.480
<v Speaker 2>true and propaganda. It's not to convince you of something specific.

0:11:33.520 --> 0:11:34.920
<v Speaker 2>It's to get you to the point where you don't

0:11:34.920 --> 0:11:36.600
<v Speaker 2>know what to believe, and so you don't believe anything,

0:11:37.200 --> 0:11:41.400
<v Speaker 2>which is a shame. I was going to go through

0:11:41.440 --> 0:11:45.600
<v Speaker 2>a couple examples. He said, the CIA killed his uncle

0:11:46.840 --> 0:11:50.000
<v Speaker 2>JFK was killed by the CIA, Sir Hen.

0:11:50.080 --> 0:11:53.880
<v Speaker 4>Sir Hen did not kill his father RFK. The two

0:11:53.920 --> 0:11:57.000
<v Speaker 4>thousand and four presidential election was stolen. He defended Putin

0:11:57.000 --> 0:12:01.480
<v Speaker 4>in the invasion of Ukraine. There's a lot of examples

0:12:01.480 --> 0:12:03.160
<v Speaker 4>out there of things he said. Now, is he just

0:12:03.200 --> 0:12:07.720
<v Speaker 4>trying to be provocative, make a point, get an argument going.

0:12:07.760 --> 0:12:11.160
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. Meat producers in America are a greater

0:12:11.240 --> 0:12:13.719
<v Speaker 2>threat to the United States and democracy. That don't sew

0:12:13.760 --> 0:12:14.280
<v Speaker 2>him a bid lot.

0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:19.000
<v Speaker 4>In his Terra network, he's accused climate deniers of being

0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:22.640
<v Speaker 4>traders and proposed they face criminal prosecution if you claim

0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:24.000
<v Speaker 4>that climate change isn't the thing.

0:12:24.600 --> 0:12:27.439
<v Speaker 2>There's a lot of these out there now. So he's

0:12:27.480 --> 0:12:32.080
<v Speaker 2>a climate change superhero. Huh. The pushback on that, because

0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:35.000
<v Speaker 2>I got an email from a longtime listener of our show,

0:12:35.080 --> 0:12:38.400
<v Speaker 2>is these people who are saying that he said these

0:12:38.440 --> 0:12:40.760
<v Speaker 2>things are in the pocket a big pharma or have

0:12:40.880 --> 0:12:42.480
<v Speaker 2>their own issues. I don't know.

0:12:42.559 --> 0:12:44.400
<v Speaker 4>I haven't done the deep dive on figuring that out.

0:12:45.240 --> 0:12:47.040
<v Speaker 4>I have a feeling that a lot of that is

0:12:47.080 --> 0:12:53.480
<v Speaker 4>going to be delved into Delvin delved We will delve

0:12:53.520 --> 0:12:58.480
<v Speaker 4>into that, yes, delved into today between Republican and Democrat centers.

0:12:58.520 --> 0:12:59.680
<v Speaker 2>We'll have some more on the way if you have

0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:01.040
<v Speaker 2>a common and I'd be interested in what you think.

0:13:01.080 --> 0:13:04.560
<v Speaker 2>Text Line four KFTC.

0:13:12.520 --> 0:13:16.160
<v Speaker 6>Medical breakthrough dub the holy Grail of fertility research could

0:13:16.240 --> 0:13:19.000
<v Speaker 6>allow for a baby to be made by just one person.

0:13:20.440 --> 0:13:22.640
<v Speaker 6>So it's been real, man, we had a good run.

0:13:22.720 --> 0:13:28.200
<v Speaker 2>Take care of y. You hear anything about that story,

0:13:28.800 --> 0:13:31.760
<v Speaker 2>I don't. I don't doubt it. I'm not surprised by it.

0:13:31.800 --> 0:13:35.559
<v Speaker 2>There's been a great effort. I mean, you don't need

0:13:35.600 --> 0:13:40.079
<v Speaker 2>two people now. I mean some dude donate sperm somewhere.

0:13:40.280 --> 0:13:43.080
<v Speaker 4>That reminds me I want to ban from the show

0:13:43.800 --> 0:13:48.280
<v Speaker 4>the term dad joke. I'd like to ban it from society. Uh,

0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:50.840
<v Speaker 4>Tony Romo used it during the Chiefs game the other day.

0:13:50.960 --> 0:13:53.600
<v Speaker 4>Sorry for the dad joke, I thought, how did that?

0:13:53.760 --> 0:13:55.840
<v Speaker 2>Why? I know how that caught on. It's part of

0:13:55.880 --> 0:13:58.520
<v Speaker 2>that whole dad's are dumb thing. There's no mom joke.

0:13:58.800 --> 0:13:59.480
<v Speaker 2>Mom jokes.

0:13:59.559 --> 0:14:01.560
<v Speaker 4>Of course, if a mom tells a joke, of course

0:14:01.559 --> 0:14:05.080
<v Speaker 4>it's witty and insightsful and creative and it should be repeated.

0:14:05.120 --> 0:14:08.960
<v Speaker 4>And the clever and intelligent dad jokes dumb because dads

0:14:08.960 --> 0:14:11.240
<v Speaker 4>are kind of dumb, and we just we just we

0:14:11.440 --> 0:14:13.880
<v Speaker 4>just barely make it through life bumping into things with

0:14:13.960 --> 0:14:15.880
<v Speaker 4>our dumb bodies and our dumb brains.

0:14:16.280 --> 0:14:20.040
<v Speaker 2>That whole thing as a dad makes me so freaking mad.

0:14:20.560 --> 0:14:24.680
<v Speaker 4>How dad get going? We all know in every ad

0:14:24.800 --> 0:14:27.000
<v Speaker 4>you still see ads all the time. I don't watch

0:14:27.000 --> 0:14:30.440
<v Speaker 4>sitcoms anymore. Dumb dads became the thing in sitcoms in

0:14:30.520 --> 0:14:33.280
<v Speaker 4>like the nineties and the two thousands. But every ad

0:14:33.360 --> 0:14:36.120
<v Speaker 4>it's the mom holding the family together and dad, dad

0:14:36.160 --> 0:14:38.440
<v Speaker 4>can't figure out how to do this, or brun the

0:14:38.480 --> 0:14:42.040
<v Speaker 4>TV or what's in the fridge, or dads can't do anything.

0:14:42.720 --> 0:14:47.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, you know. The dad. The dumb dad guided

0:14:47.920 --> 0:14:51.360
<v Speaker 2>by the wise woman has been a trope for a

0:14:51.480 --> 0:14:54.600
<v Speaker 2>long time, but it's become like the exclusive way to

0:14:54.640 --> 0:14:58.320
<v Speaker 2>present dads in the last forty years. Would I would

0:14:58.360 --> 0:15:02.320
<v Speaker 2>just top of my head, what is one of the

0:15:02.360 --> 0:15:05.400
<v Speaker 2>main things the radical left rails against all the time,

0:15:05.600 --> 0:15:12.720
<v Speaker 2>the patriarchy? And if you portray any male as wise, kind, loving,

0:15:13.920 --> 0:15:19.280
<v Speaker 2>any positive attribute whatsoever in any way, right, Yeah, exactly, Yeah,

0:15:19.720 --> 0:15:24.320
<v Speaker 2>you have set back the great war for humanity that

0:15:24.400 --> 0:15:28.080
<v Speaker 2>the political left is so hardcore to win. To overturn

0:15:28.160 --> 0:15:31.200
<v Speaker 2>society as it is in usher in a Marxist utopia,

0:15:31.640 --> 0:15:38.080
<v Speaker 2>you've got to undermine every aspect of society that currently

0:15:38.240 --> 0:15:40.000
<v Speaker 2>has respect and power.

0:15:40.440 --> 0:15:44.520
<v Speaker 4>Imagine any commercial where the woman can't do something, get

0:15:44.520 --> 0:15:47.560
<v Speaker 4>the TV going, or fix the car, or help the

0:15:47.640 --> 0:15:48.760
<v Speaker 4>kids with homework.

0:15:48.360 --> 0:15:51.040
<v Speaker 2>Pick a topic. I saw my first one and saw

0:15:51.080 --> 0:15:55.400
<v Speaker 2>my fun boy. I don't know what it was, it's

0:15:55.520 --> 0:15:59.320
<v Speaker 2>it's that great campaign for one of your insurance companies.

0:15:59.360 --> 0:16:01.800
<v Speaker 2>I think, wouldn't it be great if there were backups

0:16:01.800 --> 0:16:05.240
<v Speaker 2>in real life and the first couple were the guy

0:16:05.280 --> 0:16:08.040
<v Speaker 2>who couldn't quite back the trailer into the driveway and

0:16:08.640 --> 0:16:10.600
<v Speaker 2>they say Jones come in, and they bring in an

0:16:10.680 --> 0:16:13.120
<v Speaker 2>NFL star who backs in successfully. Wouldn't it be great

0:16:13.120 --> 0:16:15.760
<v Speaker 2>to have backups. They had. The third one I've seen

0:16:15.920 --> 0:16:18.320
<v Speaker 2>was a woman who's struggling with the taxes and they

0:16:18.360 --> 0:16:20.680
<v Speaker 2>called for a backup. The backup came in and did

0:16:20.680 --> 0:16:22.840
<v Speaker 2>the taxes for and she's like, wow, I just I'm

0:16:22.880 --> 0:16:26.800
<v Speaker 2>struggling today. And they're funny and nice commercials, but it

0:16:27.040 --> 0:16:30.000
<v Speaker 2>struck me. I was like, oh my god. They did

0:16:30.040 --> 0:16:32.000
<v Speaker 2>one with a woman, but it was a mail. It

0:16:32.040 --> 0:16:34.640
<v Speaker 2>wasn't the dad, It wasn't the husband stepping in to

0:16:34.720 --> 0:16:38.600
<v Speaker 2>fix the problem. No, gotcha. Oh no, not to assume

0:16:38.640 --> 0:16:41.240
<v Speaker 2>he is an idiot. Yeah, that would be like shocking

0:16:41.280 --> 0:16:44.440
<v Speaker 2>to the system. Well, a woman can't do something and

0:16:44.480 --> 0:16:47.720
<v Speaker 2>the dad can. Well, oh this is awful. Well I

0:16:47.760 --> 0:16:49.720
<v Speaker 2>tell you what, Let's have a bet and it'll never

0:16:49.760 --> 0:16:51.560
<v Speaker 2>pay off. So you can bet as much as you want.

0:16:52.080 --> 0:16:55.040
<v Speaker 2>You wait for the first time that happens, and I'll

0:16:55.040 --> 0:16:59.280
<v Speaker 2>wait for the first show that has a black criminal

0:16:59.320 --> 0:17:05.920
<v Speaker 2>victimizing a white person. So not using the DJ term anymore.

0:17:06.040 --> 0:17:09.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't like it. It's insulting and not good for America.

0:17:10.880 --> 0:17:12.320
<v Speaker 2>We got a lot on the way of continuing to

0:17:12.359 --> 0:17:15.000
<v Speaker 2>watch the RFK junior hearing. If anything happens that's exciting

0:17:15.000 --> 0:17:16.920
<v Speaker 2>will bring that to you. We got plenty of other

0:17:16.920 --> 0:17:20.159
<v Speaker 2>stuff for you too. An armed foreign force is fired

0:17:20.200 --> 0:17:22.679
<v Speaker 2>on our government and nobody's talking about it for some reason.

0:17:22.720 --> 0:17:28.520
<v Speaker 3>Starts our only purpose, one all people share, is to

0:17:28.600 --> 0:17:32.080
<v Speaker 3>search for ways to reduce the danger of nuclear war.

0:17:32.400 --> 0:17:35.960
<v Speaker 1>In this Oval office speech, President Ronald Reagan outlined his

0:17:36.160 --> 0:17:39.719
<v Speaker 1>plans for a missile defense system later nicknamed star Wars.

0:17:40.119 --> 0:17:43.639
<v Speaker 1>On Monday, President Trump signed an executive order to build

0:17:43.680 --> 0:17:48.119
<v Speaker 1>a next generation space based missile defense architecture to protect

0:17:48.160 --> 0:17:51.280
<v Speaker 1>the US from threats posed by a new generation of

0:17:51.400 --> 0:17:55.919
<v Speaker 1>hypersonic glide missiles. Another indication that space is becoming a

0:17:55.960 --> 0:17:57.320
<v Speaker 1>war fighting domain.

0:17:58.200 --> 0:18:01.240
<v Speaker 4>Should be included in that report was named star Wars

0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:04.720
<v Speaker 4>by the people who were trying to deride it. Yes,

0:18:04.840 --> 0:18:07.879
<v Speaker 4>they were trying to mock Old ron Reagan, for he

0:18:08.040 --> 0:18:10.119
<v Speaker 4>saw star Wars now things we need to do this.

0:18:10.200 --> 0:18:11.960
<v Speaker 4>If you're old enough to remember that it was seen

0:18:11.960 --> 0:18:14.840
<v Speaker 4>as stupid by the mainstream media, it's now accepted as

0:18:15.080 --> 0:18:16.879
<v Speaker 4>obviously something that needed to happen.

0:18:17.560 --> 0:18:19.560
<v Speaker 2>And it was what five short years ago that the

0:18:19.600 --> 0:18:23.040
<v Speaker 2>idea of the space force was just goffawed at by

0:18:23.080 --> 0:18:27.240
<v Speaker 2>all of the intelligencia. Trump is so stupid, he thinks

0:18:27.240 --> 0:18:29.560
<v Speaker 2>we're going to have what guardians of the galaxy? Man?

0:18:29.680 --> 0:18:33.679
<v Speaker 2>Is he stupid? Now? Any country bigger than Guatemala that

0:18:33.800 --> 0:18:39.280
<v Speaker 2>isn't exploring defense in the atmosphere in space is insane.

0:18:39.560 --> 0:18:41.719
<v Speaker 2>It's going to be critically important going forward. Let's hear

0:18:41.720 --> 0:18:47.440
<v Speaker 2>a little more Jennifer Griffin's report. We need to immediately

0:18:47.480 --> 0:18:50.080
<v Speaker 2>begin the construction of a state of the art iron

0:18:50.119 --> 0:18:53.440
<v Speaker 2>Dome missile defense shield which we'll be able to protect

0:18:53.480 --> 0:18:54.520
<v Speaker 2>Americans a.

0:18:54.600 --> 0:18:58.040
<v Speaker 1>Reference to israel short range missile defense system, but the

0:18:58.119 --> 0:19:01.399
<v Speaker 1>Iron Dome only defense against short range missiles in a

0:19:01.440 --> 0:19:03.160
<v Speaker 1>country the size of New Jersey.

0:19:03.400 --> 0:19:04.160
<v Speaker 2>It's a metaphor.

0:19:04.320 --> 0:19:07.360
<v Speaker 4>What this is about is, I would say, an agenda,

0:19:08.400 --> 0:19:12.360
<v Speaker 4>a broad agenda for trying to get after the spectrum

0:19:12.600 --> 0:19:15.240
<v Speaker 4>of air and missile threats. Yeah, and particularly, as she

0:19:15.320 --> 0:19:19.040
<v Speaker 4>mentioned in that first clip, the hypersonic missiles that at

0:19:19.160 --> 0:19:22.960
<v Speaker 4>least currently I think can get by our systems, which ain't.

0:19:22.800 --> 0:19:28.400
<v Speaker 2>Good right right, and has been pointed out many times already.

0:19:29.320 --> 0:19:31.560
<v Speaker 2>He says, iron Dome. It's a metaphor. It's a very

0:19:31.560 --> 0:19:35.760
<v Speaker 2>different system than Israel would have. But to not thoroughly

0:19:35.920 --> 0:19:42.240
<v Speaker 2>explore technological opportunities to deflect aggressive acts by bad actors.

0:19:42.400 --> 0:19:44.480
<v Speaker 2>Why in the name of heaven would you not do that?

0:19:44.520 --> 0:19:47.560
<v Speaker 2>I don't there's no argument. And if it turns out

0:19:47.560 --> 0:19:50.399
<v Speaker 2>it's going to be cataclysmically expensive, all right, fine, well

0:19:50.440 --> 0:19:52.640
<v Speaker 2>then we'll get those studies and think, yeah, I guess

0:19:52.640 --> 0:19:55.159
<v Speaker 2>we don't have the money or we will. But anybody

0:19:55.160 --> 0:19:59.240
<v Speaker 2>who poo poose this as a moron should be quiet. Oh,

0:19:59.320 --> 0:20:05.600
<v Speaker 2>speaking of being a attack from foreign baddies. To point

0:20:05.600 --> 0:20:09.200
<v Speaker 2>out yet again how the mainstream media is utterly incompetent

0:20:09.280 --> 0:20:11.160
<v Speaker 2>and biased. Is the fund's gone out of it? It's

0:20:11.200 --> 0:20:14.479
<v Speaker 2>just so obvious at this point. But the border patrol

0:20:14.520 --> 0:20:16.959
<v Speaker 2>has come under fire several times in recent days from

0:20:17.000 --> 0:20:26.520
<v Speaker 2>Mexican drug cartels. Foreign armed groups are attacking our people

0:20:26.760 --> 0:20:31.399
<v Speaker 2>on our soil on a semi regular basis. Now point

0:20:31.400 --> 0:20:34.720
<v Speaker 2>out to me, please, when in the history of humankind

0:20:34.920 --> 0:20:39.600
<v Speaker 2>in any nation that sort of thing has been fundamentally ignored? Ever,

0:20:39.680 --> 0:20:47.159
<v Speaker 2>I'll wait, is it? Because once you acknowledge that a

0:20:47.200 --> 0:20:51.080
<v Speaker 2>bunch of things, big things need to happen, and we're

0:20:51.080 --> 0:20:54.040
<v Speaker 2>trying to get it settled before you have to do

0:20:54.080 --> 0:20:58.320
<v Speaker 2>those big things. But the complicity of the New York

0:20:58.400 --> 0:21:03.240
<v Speaker 2>Times in this, for instance, is are they being quiet

0:21:03.280 --> 0:21:05.840
<v Speaker 2>about it because they want to? I think the diplomacy

0:21:05.880 --> 0:21:09.000
<v Speaker 2>work beyond the scenes. I think that would be just, uh,

0:21:09.640 --> 0:21:13.400
<v Speaker 2>you don't want to portray anything from Mexico as bad, right,

0:21:13.480 --> 0:21:16.000
<v Speaker 2>because that seems I don't know nationalists. I've I've heard

0:21:16.040 --> 0:21:19.240
<v Speaker 2>of these Christian nationalists and how dangerous they're white support

0:21:19.400 --> 0:21:22.720
<v Speaker 2>racists or at the very least in agreement with Trump. Yeah, yeah,

0:21:22.840 --> 0:21:24.960
<v Speaker 2>and I could go into detail, but trust me when

0:21:25.000 --> 0:21:27.480
<v Speaker 2>I say there are heavily armed these trucks that look

0:21:27.520 --> 0:21:32.560
<v Speaker 2>a lot like you know, our are fighting vehicles, super

0:21:32.600 --> 0:21:34.960
<v Speaker 2>heavy duty all terrain with a machine gun mounted on

0:21:35.000 --> 0:21:40.120
<v Speaker 2>the top of them, and soldiers quote unquote working in

0:21:40.240 --> 0:21:43.639
<v Speaker 2>and around them occasionally squeezing off multiple shots. That are

0:21:43.680 --> 0:21:48.240
<v Speaker 2>people along the border. Is any good? It's It's absolutely shocking,

0:21:49.280 --> 0:21:53.439
<v Speaker 2>totally totally different topic, and I've wanted to talk about this,

0:21:53.800 --> 0:21:55.480
<v Speaker 2>you know, it occurred to me. I think I've got

0:21:55.480 --> 0:21:59.760
<v Speaker 2>the perfect metaphor for Trump in his administration, because you know,

0:21:59.840 --> 0:22:02.359
<v Speaker 2>he he does stuff that's not a good idea at times,

0:22:02.359 --> 0:22:04.359
<v Speaker 2>and he nominates people in my mind that are terrible

0:22:04.359 --> 0:22:06.800
<v Speaker 2>nominees just because they kissed his ass or they were

0:22:06.840 --> 0:22:09.760
<v Speaker 2>loyal to him and and you know what, either of

0:22:09.760 --> 0:22:12.760
<v Speaker 2>the Senate sens were no on this one, like Matt Gates,

0:22:12.760 --> 0:22:15.280
<v Speaker 2>who was a terrible choice from the beginning, or have

0:22:15.359 --> 0:22:17.840
<v Speaker 2>you watched a workout in the end. Matt Gates was

0:22:17.880 --> 0:22:22.479
<v Speaker 2>on Bill Maher's Basement show for like a Knowledge. I

0:22:22.520 --> 0:22:25.840
<v Speaker 2>want to tune that in that to be interesting. Bill Maher,

0:22:25.840 --> 0:22:28.440
<v Speaker 2>a comedian Friday Night hbo Hoo sas this other show

0:22:28.480 --> 0:22:30.960
<v Speaker 2>that he does where he's basically sitting in the basement

0:22:31.440 --> 0:22:35.760
<v Speaker 2>and talks to people length. It's like a podcast on video.

0:22:36.280 --> 0:22:38.159
<v Speaker 2>But he had Matt Gates on, so I want to

0:22:38.240 --> 0:22:41.480
<v Speaker 2>check that out. Yeah, it was Gates drinking and burning

0:22:41.480 --> 0:22:43.879
<v Speaker 2>one down with the mar which some teenage girls. I

0:22:43.920 --> 0:22:46.359
<v Speaker 2>don't know. Oh see, that was out of bounds, right,

0:22:46.440 --> 0:22:50.560
<v Speaker 2>there was it? Out of bounds? You're the chiefs. Anyway,

0:22:53.200 --> 0:22:56.280
<v Speaker 2>getting back to my main point, this headline Trump signed.

0:22:56.320 --> 0:22:59.080
<v Speaker 2>Oh I came up with a perfect metaphor for Trump

0:22:59.760 --> 0:23:02.199
<v Speaker 2>because he's doing so many things that are just so great.

0:23:02.840 --> 0:23:06.240
<v Speaker 2>But he creates, he hands his opponent's clubs to beat

0:23:06.280 --> 0:23:08.760
<v Speaker 2>him with, and frequently steps on his own messaging and

0:23:08.800 --> 0:23:13.040
<v Speaker 2>the rest of that. He's like a great gifted musician

0:23:13.800 --> 0:23:18.359
<v Speaker 2>but whether it's personality or drugs or liquor or whatever,

0:23:19.280 --> 0:23:25.080
<v Speaker 2>you're never quite sure if they're going to do the

0:23:25.160 --> 0:23:28.280
<v Speaker 2>right thing for themselves and the band and whatever else.

0:23:28.320 --> 0:23:31.879
<v Speaker 2>He's incredibly gifted. He's got the don't give a damn

0:23:31.960 --> 0:23:35.400
<v Speaker 2>that's necessary to confront well, the swamp and all these

0:23:35.560 --> 0:23:38.639
<v Speaker 2>entrenched practices and bureaucracies and budgets and the rest of it.

0:23:38.800 --> 0:23:41.520
<v Speaker 2>He doesn't care. And he is in a brilliant way

0:23:41.600 --> 0:23:44.439
<v Speaker 2>confronting that stuff like it had to be confronted, but

0:23:44.600 --> 0:23:47.760
<v Speaker 2>never is. At the same time, you'll nominate a Matt Gates,

0:23:47.800 --> 0:23:50.320
<v Speaker 2>and he just reminds me of musicians I've known who

0:23:50.320 --> 0:23:52.320
<v Speaker 2>are just brilliant, but they keep getting in their own way.

0:23:52.560 --> 0:23:58.400
<v Speaker 2>And the question is will his brilliance win the day

0:23:58.640 --> 0:24:02.240
<v Speaker 2>over the long term? Are Willy finally, you know, step

0:24:02.240 --> 0:24:04.679
<v Speaker 2>in it badly enough that you know that either the

0:24:04.680 --> 0:24:07.040
<v Speaker 2>support falls apart or they can impeach him or whatever.

0:24:07.160 --> 0:24:10.159
<v Speaker 2>It'll be interesting to watch. But speaking of the great

0:24:10.240 --> 0:24:13.240
<v Speaker 2>things he's doing, Trump signed. The headline is Trump signs

0:24:13.240 --> 0:24:17.320
<v Speaker 2>Executive Order protecting children from chemical and surgical gender mutilation,

0:24:18.640 --> 0:24:22.720
<v Speaker 2>which is so much more an accurate headline. It's from

0:24:22.760 --> 0:24:25.760
<v Speaker 2>the National Review than you would ever see about gender

0:24:25.800 --> 0:24:31.320
<v Speaker 2>affirming care in the most of the mainstream media. But

0:24:31.600 --> 0:24:35.000
<v Speaker 2>Trump issued the executive order yesterday to ban the chemical

0:24:35.000 --> 0:24:38.160
<v Speaker 2>and surgical mutilation of children, known among progressive id logs

0:24:38.160 --> 0:24:40.920
<v Speaker 2>as gender affirming care. The act will cut back federal

0:24:40.960 --> 0:24:45.040
<v Speaker 2>funding for medical institutions that provide puberty blockers, hormone therapies,

0:24:45.080 --> 0:24:49.680
<v Speaker 2>and surgical mutilations to minors. Trump declared in the order,

0:24:49.680 --> 0:24:52.320
<v Speaker 2>and I quote across the country today, medical professionals are

0:24:52.359 --> 0:24:57.040
<v Speaker 2>maiming and sterilizing, absolutely true, a growing number of impressionable

0:24:57.119 --> 0:25:00.080
<v Speaker 2>children under the radical and false claims that adult el

0:25:00.280 --> 0:25:03.720
<v Speaker 2>can change a child's sex through a series of irreversible

0:25:03.760 --> 0:25:07.359
<v Speaker 2>medical interventions. This dangerous trend will be a stain on

0:25:07.400 --> 0:25:10.200
<v Speaker 2>our nation's history and it must end. Ah, that is

0:25:10.320 --> 0:25:13.360
<v Speaker 2>very true. And also that puts US in step with

0:25:13.600 --> 0:25:19.879
<v Speaker 2>most of Europe. Oh yeah, yeah, we are like wildly

0:25:20.040 --> 0:25:24.200
<v Speaker 2>radical on this stuff compared to Europe, which innovated a

0:25:24.240 --> 0:25:27.160
<v Speaker 2>lot of it quote unquote, then did careful actual studies

0:25:27.160 --> 0:25:29.679
<v Speaker 2>of the results of it and realized a lot of

0:25:29.680 --> 0:25:33.800
<v Speaker 2>the positive claims were fraudulent. And any reasonable study of

0:25:33.840 --> 0:25:36.480
<v Speaker 2>this stuff shows that it is a permanent and B

0:25:36.680 --> 0:25:39.560
<v Speaker 2>shows no signs of actually helping people's long term mental health,

0:25:39.760 --> 0:25:43.159
<v Speaker 2>and it's not going to I've said this before, and

0:25:43.200 --> 0:25:45.280
<v Speaker 2>I will stand by these words. And if there are

0:25:45.400 --> 0:25:49.159
<v Speaker 2>rare cases of quote unquote gender dysphoria that don't fit this,

0:25:49.760 --> 0:25:52.359
<v Speaker 2>I will listen and I will learn, and I will

0:25:52.440 --> 0:25:56.080
<v Speaker 2>admit it the moment I'm convinced it's true. Okay, there

0:25:56.080 --> 0:26:04.879
<v Speaker 2>are a lot of people that are alienated oncometrible, neurotic, afraid, anxious, depressed, whatever,

0:26:06.560 --> 0:26:10.520
<v Speaker 2>in including myself at times, and the idea of becoming

0:26:10.560 --> 0:26:16.960
<v Speaker 2>a completely different person is so incredibly intoxicating. And Jack,

0:26:17.040 --> 0:26:20.080
<v Speaker 2>you've talked about this, you know, in conjunction with substance

0:26:20.119 --> 0:26:22.920
<v Speaker 2>abuse and stuff like that. Sometimes people just think if

0:26:22.920 --> 0:26:26.280
<v Speaker 2>they change where they are or the house they have,

0:26:26.400 --> 0:26:28.960
<v Speaker 2>the car they have, the woman or man they're married

0:26:29.000 --> 0:26:31.960
<v Speaker 2>to or with, if they can just change that, they

0:26:31.960 --> 0:26:33.960
<v Speaker 2>will be happy, they will fit in, they will be

0:26:34.080 --> 0:26:39.399
<v Speaker 2>popular at the rest of it. It's incredibly alluring. And

0:26:39.440 --> 0:26:46.080
<v Speaker 2>if you get a confused adolescent it was unpopular, autistic, anxious,

0:26:46.600 --> 0:26:52.080
<v Speaker 2>terrified of womanhood or puberty or whatever, one hundred different things,

0:26:52.400 --> 0:26:55.560
<v Speaker 2>and you sell them on the idea that hey, you're

0:26:55.600 --> 0:26:59.280
<v Speaker 2>actually a different person, a different person who will get

0:26:59.320 --> 0:27:01.800
<v Speaker 2>all sorts of a approval and love and you'll be popular.

0:27:01.840 --> 0:27:05.960
<v Speaker 2>Look you even saying you're curious about changing your sex

0:27:06.320 --> 0:27:10.240
<v Speaker 2>they say gender, even just hinting that you're thinking about it.

0:27:10.480 --> 0:27:13.160
<v Speaker 2>Look at all this approval and love you've gotten online.

0:27:13.480 --> 0:27:17.240
<v Speaker 2>Wait a minute, you're somebody different and everyone loves you.

0:27:18.080 --> 0:27:20.800
<v Speaker 2>That is what's happening here. And when a couple of

0:27:20.880 --> 0:27:23.240
<v Speaker 2>years down the line they realize, oh my god, I've

0:27:23.240 --> 0:27:25.960
<v Speaker 2>allowed myself to be mutilated. I can never have children.

0:27:26.200 --> 0:27:29.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm unhappy and precisely the same ways that I used

0:27:29.000 --> 0:27:32.600
<v Speaker 2>to be, But now I'm a dude who looks slightly

0:27:32.800 --> 0:27:39.159
<v Speaker 2>like a woman. Great, that's not a solution. Yeah, you

0:27:39.200 --> 0:27:42.600
<v Speaker 2>get the encouragement, and you're being called brave. Who wants

0:27:42.640 --> 0:27:45.879
<v Speaker 2>to walk away from being called brave, especially as a

0:27:45.920 --> 0:27:49.960
<v Speaker 2>confused adolescent to pray on? I mean, people who prey

0:27:50.080 --> 0:27:54.679
<v Speaker 2>on like confused oldsters and steal their life savings are

0:27:54.760 --> 0:27:59.800
<v Speaker 2>rightfully seen as monsters. Monsters, but people who for idea

0:28:00.000 --> 0:28:03.600
<v Speaker 2>logical reasons do the same thing to confuse adolescents and

0:28:03.680 --> 0:28:06.280
<v Speaker 2>to call them brave and use the techniques I've been

0:28:06.280 --> 0:28:08.400
<v Speaker 2>describing and then when they show up to the clinics,

0:28:08.400 --> 0:28:10.880
<v Speaker 2>don't do any counseling whatsoever. They don't ask them, Oh

0:28:10.920 --> 0:28:13.480
<v Speaker 2>you were raped as a child. That might have a

0:28:13.560 --> 0:28:17.040
<v Speaker 2>role in your fearing puberty. Oh you're autistic, Oh you

0:28:17.080 --> 0:28:20.640
<v Speaker 2>have underlying psychological problems. They don't even ask those questions.

0:28:20.880 --> 0:28:25.600
<v Speaker 2>Those people are monsters. I prefer the people stealing from

0:28:25.640 --> 0:28:28.919
<v Speaker 2>old people because at least I get their brand of evil.

0:28:29.840 --> 0:28:33.560
<v Speaker 2>End of screed. So the new Transportation Secretary just put

0:28:33.560 --> 0:28:37.119
<v Speaker 2>a big knife in the whole evy mandate thing. Thank

0:28:37.320 --> 0:28:41.920
<v Speaker 2>God or sanity, Yeah, more sanity, cut the crap or

0:28:41.920 --> 0:28:42.800
<v Speaker 2>whatever you want to call it.

0:28:42.960 --> 0:28:46.320
<v Speaker 4>What did Trump call it? The return to common sense

0:28:46.440 --> 0:28:48.760
<v Speaker 4>or something like that. Love it got a couple examples

0:28:48.800 --> 0:28:54.160
<v Speaker 4>of that. Also, are you downloading that new Chinese AI app?

0:28:54.240 --> 0:28:55.200
<v Speaker 2>Why are you doing that?

0:28:55.280 --> 0:28:59.440
<v Speaker 4>But a little more information about that, stay tuned.

0:29:06.160 --> 0:29:09.440
<v Speaker 3>I don't want to take food away from anybody. If

0:29:09.480 --> 0:29:15.320
<v Speaker 3>you like a cheesebag McDonald's cheezburger, which my boss loves,

0:29:17.520 --> 0:29:19.520
<v Speaker 3>you should be able to get them. If you want

0:29:19.560 --> 0:29:22.479
<v Speaker 3>to eat hostest dwinkies, you should be able to do that.

0:29:22.560 --> 0:29:26.160
<v Speaker 3>But you should know what the impacts are on your family.

0:29:26.200 --> 0:29:32.000
<v Speaker 2>And on your house. Do we not already? And I'm

0:29:32.000 --> 0:29:34.640
<v Speaker 2>not trying to be controversial here, I just do we

0:29:34.880 --> 0:29:37.560
<v Speaker 2>I thought we did. Aren't the ingredients everywhere? Aren't they

0:29:37.560 --> 0:29:40.000
<v Speaker 2>already posted on all that stuff? It's hard for me

0:29:40.080 --> 0:29:44.440
<v Speaker 2>to imagine somebody who doesn't understand the ramifications of eating

0:29:44.440 --> 0:29:46.280
<v Speaker 2>a bunch of that and swinging down a bunch of pop.

0:29:46.480 --> 0:29:51.240
<v Speaker 4>Sometimes starting the conversation is I don't know enough, but

0:29:51.360 --> 0:29:55.040
<v Speaker 4>a big deal. A lot of the talk about processed

0:29:55.040 --> 0:29:57.360
<v Speaker 4>food and what's in food and everything like that comes

0:29:57.400 --> 0:30:00.320
<v Speaker 4>from RFK Junior going around the country talking about it.

0:30:00.360 --> 0:30:03.200
<v Speaker 4>A lot of the national conversation around this he got going,

0:30:03.520 --> 0:30:03.920
<v Speaker 4>no doubt.

0:30:04.080 --> 0:30:06.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I almost feel like with RFK Junior, you have

0:30:06.560 --> 0:30:09.400
<v Speaker 2>to like make clear, all right, everything we talk about

0:30:09.440 --> 0:30:12.200
<v Speaker 2>in reference to him is on its own. It's not

0:30:12.280 --> 0:30:15.200
<v Speaker 2>a leap toward therefore he should be in charge of everything, right,

0:30:15.280 --> 0:30:18.600
<v Speaker 2>it's just a sub discussion. And to that point, that's

0:30:18.720 --> 0:30:22.520
<v Speaker 2>absolutely true. My God, look at look at us as

0:30:22.560 --> 0:30:26.280
<v Speaker 2>a people. We're fed up, pardon me, in terms of

0:30:26.320 --> 0:30:29.880
<v Speaker 2>our health and our diets and all sorts of things psychology,

0:30:31.040 --> 0:30:34.360
<v Speaker 2>for whatever reasons, at least, let's talk about it all

0:30:34.400 --> 0:30:36.600
<v Speaker 2>the time. How many times have we uttered the sentence

0:30:36.640 --> 0:30:38.800
<v Speaker 2>or the phrase Jack. This ought to be the biggest

0:30:38.840 --> 0:30:41.800
<v Speaker 2>story in the world. We ought to be talking about

0:30:41.800 --> 0:30:44.360
<v Speaker 2>this every single day. Well we're talking about it more so.

0:30:44.560 --> 0:30:46.040
<v Speaker 2>He's still testifying right now.

0:30:46.160 --> 0:30:50.840
<v Speaker 4>RFK Junior very tan and Hanson pointed out good point, Hanson,

0:30:51.560 --> 0:30:54.080
<v Speaker 4>he's not wearing He's a very stylish guy. I was

0:30:54.120 --> 0:30:56.040
<v Speaker 4>actually thinking watching him, I need to get a custom

0:30:56.280 --> 0:30:58.800
<v Speaker 4>My suit's custom made. Because you get your suit's custom made,

0:30:58.840 --> 0:31:00.760
<v Speaker 4>they just fit you better, you just look better.

0:31:01.320 --> 0:31:04.080
<v Speaker 2>He's a Kennedy, though I'm not a Kennedy. That's why

0:31:04.080 --> 0:31:04.960
<v Speaker 2>I buy off the wreck.

0:31:05.200 --> 0:31:10.560
<v Speaker 4>But he's wearing the same suit that his dad and

0:31:10.800 --> 0:31:13.239
<v Speaker 4>uncle war back in the early sixties, even though that's

0:31:13.320 --> 0:31:16.440
<v Speaker 4>not really the style right now. The super skinny tie

0:31:16.800 --> 0:31:19.920
<v Speaker 4>and that collar. He just wants to evoke the whole

0:31:20.040 --> 0:31:20.800
<v Speaker 4>Kennedy thing.

0:31:21.280 --> 0:31:23.080
<v Speaker 2>Very clever. I wonder if he has to get those

0:31:23.080 --> 0:31:24.120
<v Speaker 2>special made, because that's.

0:31:24.040 --> 0:31:26.680
<v Speaker 4>Not really what people are wearing, but nobody gets I

0:31:26.760 --> 0:31:28.280
<v Speaker 4>need the early sixties.

0:31:27.960 --> 0:31:31.360
<v Speaker 2>Kennedy suits and they make them for him. Look sharp.

0:31:31.960 --> 0:31:34.479
<v Speaker 2>He's a little two tan. I feel like it if

0:31:34.520 --> 0:31:36.360
<v Speaker 2>you got the white hair and you get that tan,

0:31:36.840 --> 0:31:40.680
<v Speaker 2>whoo I'm hearing racism there or something.

0:31:40.760 --> 0:31:43.160
<v Speaker 4>A couple of quick things that are actually important. First

0:31:43.160 --> 0:31:46.360
<v Speaker 4>of all, this our new transportation secretary. Name him off

0:31:46.400 --> 0:31:48.760
<v Speaker 4>the top of your head, you can't. It's Sean Deffy. Duffy.

0:31:49.320 --> 0:31:53.720
<v Speaker 4>He acxed Biden's Cafe Fuel Economy Standards caf E.

0:31:53.840 --> 0:31:57.120
<v Speaker 2>It's a whatever. It is an acronym for something. It was.

0:31:57.760 --> 0:32:00.960
<v Speaker 4>It's an acronym for government forcing you an electric car.

0:32:01.560 --> 0:32:06.080
<v Speaker 4>And he acts those and he said it's needlessly driven

0:32:06.160 --> 0:32:08.120
<v Speaker 4>up the cost of all cars in order to push

0:32:08.160 --> 0:32:11.400
<v Speaker 4>a radical green New Deal agenda, which is absolutely true.

0:32:11.640 --> 0:32:13.680
<v Speaker 4>So now these car companies aren't going to have to

0:32:13.680 --> 0:32:16.040
<v Speaker 4>make a whole bunch of cars that they know nobody's

0:32:16.080 --> 0:32:17.480
<v Speaker 4>going to buy, and of course, how do they pay

0:32:17.520 --> 0:32:19.040
<v Speaker 4>for them. They have to raise the price of all

0:32:19.040 --> 0:32:21.040
<v Speaker 4>the other cars that you actually do buy. I know

0:32:21.120 --> 0:32:24.680
<v Speaker 4>this from a guy who owns a car dealership. I

0:32:24.760 --> 0:32:27.920
<v Speaker 4>have to have this number of electric cars on my

0:32:28.000 --> 0:32:30.760
<v Speaker 4>lot to be part of my fleet, to be in business,

0:32:30.840 --> 0:32:32.080
<v Speaker 4>and nobody wants them.

0:32:32.680 --> 0:32:35.040
<v Speaker 2>And as we've gone over many times, the net environmental

0:32:35.040 --> 0:32:39.480
<v Speaker 2>effect of electric cars is unknown at best. Right, good point,

0:32:40.760 --> 0:32:41.440
<v Speaker 2>different topic.

0:32:41.800 --> 0:32:45.000
<v Speaker 4>So took out a bunch of information yesterday about that

0:32:45.080 --> 0:32:47.560
<v Speaker 4>new Chinese AI thing and whether or not it's as

0:32:47.600 --> 0:32:49.320
<v Speaker 4>big a deal as everybody says it is or not,

0:32:49.400 --> 0:32:50.040
<v Speaker 4>and all that.

0:32:50.160 --> 0:32:51.800
<v Speaker 2>I find that fascinating and time will tell.

0:32:52.160 --> 0:32:54.640
<v Speaker 4>But it is the number one app in the Apple

0:32:54.680 --> 0:32:56.600
<v Speaker 4>Store and the Google Store for androids.

0:32:56.640 --> 0:32:59.840
<v Speaker 2>And I don't know why you're all downloading so eagerly

0:33:00.120 --> 0:33:02.720
<v Speaker 2>Chinese apps. I don't quite get that. I think it's

0:33:02.760 --> 0:33:05.040
<v Speaker 2>just curiosity. In this case, it got so much coverage.

0:33:05.080 --> 0:33:08.320
<v Speaker 2>Don't you care about the I care about handing over

0:33:08.400 --> 0:33:11.240
<v Speaker 2>every key stroke I make to other, to any even

0:33:11.280 --> 0:33:14.840
<v Speaker 2>American companies, lit alone a Chinese place. But so if

0:33:14.880 --> 0:33:18.280
<v Speaker 2>you go on to that new AI thing from China

0:33:18.360 --> 0:33:21.720
<v Speaker 2>and ask what happened in Tienaman Square in nineteen eighty nine,

0:33:22.520 --> 0:33:25.600
<v Speaker 2>their answer will be I'm sorry, I cannot answer that question.

0:33:25.680 --> 0:33:29.320
<v Speaker 2>I'm an AI assistant designed to provide helpful and harmless responses.

0:33:29.800 --> 0:33:32.240
<v Speaker 4>If you ask the same Chinese app what happened in

0:33:32.280 --> 0:33:35.840
<v Speaker 4>Ohio in nineteen seventy. In nineteen seventy, Ohio was the

0:33:35.880 --> 0:33:38.680
<v Speaker 4>site of a significant historical event, most notably the Kent

0:33:38.760 --> 0:33:41.720
<v Speaker 4>State shootings in nineteen seventy. The tragic incident occurred during

0:33:41.760 --> 0:33:44.840
<v Speaker 4>a period of widespread protests of the Vietnam War. So

0:33:45.000 --> 0:33:48.600
<v Speaker 4>it has it's US history fairly nailed down. It's Chinese

0:33:48.640 --> 0:33:52.640
<v Speaker 4>history that everybody knows. That makes the Chinese Communist Party

0:33:52.640 --> 0:33:53.280
<v Speaker 4>look bad.

0:33:53.640 --> 0:33:59.000
<v Speaker 2>Not so much. Yeah, look like murderous monsters. Yeah, not surprising.

0:33:59.360 --> 0:34:02.000
<v Speaker 2>That is going to be man, that's the common future

0:34:02.120 --> 0:34:05.800
<v Speaker 2>is I mean, we think that people are bubbled at

0:34:05.880 --> 0:34:11.520
<v Speaker 2>countries are bubbled. Billions of people will be bubbled. Oh yeah,

0:34:11.600 --> 0:34:14.200
<v Speaker 2>I was just reading about Kim Jong UN's desperation to

0:34:14.280 --> 0:34:17.279
<v Speaker 2>keep the outside world out of North Korean. How that's

0:34:17.280 --> 0:34:22.480
<v Speaker 2>getting harder and harder, because if they can pierce the illusion,

0:34:22.600 --> 0:34:24.319
<v Speaker 2>or if the illusion is pierced that they are a

0:34:24.360 --> 0:34:27.520
<v Speaker 2>socialist paradise and everybody else is way poorer and way

0:34:27.560 --> 0:34:31.160
<v Speaker 2>more miserable than North Korean's, it's all over the scam ends.

0:34:31.800 --> 0:34:33.400
<v Speaker 4>Hey, this is really interesting. Let me see if I

0:34:33.400 --> 0:34:35.520
<v Speaker 4>can jam this in. This is from the New York Times,

0:34:35.520 --> 0:34:38.680
<v Speaker 4>which I don't always agree with. But when the market's

0:34:38.680 --> 0:34:41.600
<v Speaker 4>lost a sunning one trillion dollars of value on Monday,

0:34:41.600 --> 0:34:44.279
<v Speaker 4>as many economic commentators nihilists are making sense of the

0:34:44.400 --> 0:34:48.319
<v Speaker 4>news of the new AI platform, I started thinking about

0:34:48.320 --> 0:34:50.160
<v Speaker 4>a serpent eating its own tail. And he talked to

0:34:50.160 --> 0:34:53.920
<v Speaker 4>this Harvard Business School, Harvard economist or whatever. I got

0:34:53.960 --> 0:34:55.960
<v Speaker 4>to jump ahead here because I thought this is interesting.

0:34:56.239 --> 0:35:00.759
<v Speaker 4>He believes that the investors are flooding the magnificence that'd

0:35:00.800 --> 0:35:03.360
<v Speaker 4>be these seven tech giants that really are driving the

0:35:03.560 --> 0:35:08.600
<v Speaker 4>entire SMB five hundred thing, whose valuations currently make up

0:35:08.640 --> 0:35:11.720
<v Speaker 4>over thirty percent of the market capitalization, with cheap money

0:35:11.880 --> 0:35:14.279
<v Speaker 4>making it easy for these forms to pour capital into

0:35:14.280 --> 0:35:17.879
<v Speaker 4>investments with each other, And that these companies have been

0:35:17.920 --> 0:35:20.680
<v Speaker 4>eating their own tails for the last several years and

0:35:20.719 --> 0:35:22.080
<v Speaker 4>that is about to come to an end.

0:35:22.560 --> 0:35:24.359
<v Speaker 2>That's a fascinating thought. I don't know if it's true

0:35:24.400 --> 0:35:29.000
<v Speaker 2>or not. Speaking of major revelations Next Hour, why everybody's

0:35:29.040 --> 0:35:31.360
<v Speaker 2>so anxious and depressed? I've figured it out. Isn't that handy?
