1 00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:04,120 Speaker 1: What are your issues? What do you vote on? I'm 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:06,640 Speaker 1: gonna tell you mine and show you an example of 3 00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:10,200 Speaker 1: why tonight we have Michelle Tafoya here. Why isn't she 4 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:13,440 Speaker 1: on Sunday Night Football anymore? That and so much more 5 00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:26,200 Speaker 1: coming up? And I'm right, priorities we all have them. 6 00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:30,720 Speaker 1: I mean we're all different. Everyone's priority is different. And 7 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:32,559 Speaker 1: we're gonna go said, We're gonna talk a little bit 8 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,639 Speaker 1: about my priorities for the country and why they are 9 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 1: what they are. But you have them in your own 10 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,319 Speaker 1: personal life too, right, I do too. You have an 11 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:44,880 Speaker 1: order of things you play some importance on food, shelter, water, 12 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,839 Speaker 1: that kind of stuff, basic human needs, life, husband, kids, 13 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 1: whatever you got, job, that did you have? You have 14 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: your life ordered priorities. I keep priorities in politics, you 15 00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 1: do too. This is human nature. You vote on certain issues. Now, 16 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 1: that doesn't mean you don't or I don't have strong 17 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,479 Speaker 1: feelings about many issues you watch. I'm right every night, 18 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,479 Speaker 1: I have strong feelings about all of them. But when 19 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 1: it comes to things like twenty twenty four, the choosing 20 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 1: of the GOP nominee, the presidential primary, as you know, 21 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:23,759 Speaker 1: I am currently an undecided voter, as of this moment, 22 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,639 Speaker 1: not a single person has earned my vote. It's my vote, 23 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 1: that's the only one I get. It's the only political 24 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,919 Speaker 1: power I have. I intend to use my political power 25 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,839 Speaker 1: to the max. So not that I think that they're 26 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 1: going to sit and screaming, yell on wine over just 27 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,320 Speaker 1: me and my vote. But if you were a GOP 28 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,680 Speaker 1: presidential candidate for twenty twenty four, how would you earn 29 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 1: my vote? What do I prioritize? Well, two things. One 30 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: COVID lockdowns, the Land of the Free turning into a 31 00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 1: police state, governments actually telling people no, you can't go 32 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: to work, people saying goodbye to their dying mother on 33 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 1: a zoom call, children now who can't read COVID lockdowns, 34 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 1: If you participated in them, and virtually every Republican candidate 35 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 1: running for office did participate in them and push them 36 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: all of them, did I need to hear how you 37 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: will address that? If I get ownership, if I get apologies, 38 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,519 Speaker 1: if I get I don't know, some sort of contrition, 39 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: I will consider giving you my vote. If I don't 40 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 1: get those things, you can never earn my vote as 41 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 1: a Republican nominee. You simply cannot, period. Don't care who 42 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,079 Speaker 1: you are. I don't live in a tyranny. I live 43 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 1: in the land of the free. That's one. Two. This 44 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 1: is actually my only other one, even though I have 45 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,799 Speaker 1: such strong feelings about a variety of issues. My other 46 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: thing that I will vote on for the twenty twenty 47 00:02:56,160 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: four presidential nominee is I want to know about your 48 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 1: plans for the administrative state in this country. More specifically, 49 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 1: even though all of it's bad, More specifically, I want 50 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 1: to know what you're going to do with the DOJ 51 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: and the FBI. And before I elaborate on this and 52 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 1: I go into what Merrick Garland said yesterday, I want 53 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 1: to be clear about something. I've said this before, I'm 54 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 1: going to say it again. Do you know how many 55 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: people Hitler Mao, Stalin pol Pot. Do you know how 56 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: many people those guys killed after they achieve total power? 57 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: You know how many people they killed? None? Not, according 58 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: to any records we have. They didn't personally kill anybody 59 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: once they achieve power. So how did all those millions 60 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: of people die? Well, their administrative states killed them. There's 61 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: state beliefs. Did the killing in whatever form it took. 62 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: If we have a federal Bureau of investigation that has 63 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:13,119 Speaker 1: become the weaponized arm of the Democratic Party, and that's 64 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 1: very much what we do have. It will end the 65 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 1: United States of America if it is not fixed. I 66 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: want to know, as a candidate, I want you to 67 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: tell me what you're going to do about it. I 68 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: watched Merrick Garland yesterday. I watched him do something not 69 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: that not that surprised me, but man, I already felt 70 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: this way, but it just drove something home. Merrick Garland 71 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: sitting in front of the United States Senate, that's a 72 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: big deal, right, an intimidating deal. Merrick Garland sat in 73 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,479 Speaker 1: front of them and said something that is it's kind 74 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: of funny on the surface, but it's so unbelievably sinister 75 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: and a little bit intimidating when you actually think about it. 76 00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 1: Here's what he said. I will say, you are quite right. 77 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:05,239 Speaker 1: There are many more prosecutions with respect to the blocking 78 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: of the of the abortion centers, but that is generally 79 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: because they are those actions are taken with photography at 80 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: the time during the daylight, and seeing the person who 81 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: did it is quite easy. Those who are attacking the 82 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 1: pregnancy Resources centers, which is a horrid thing to do, 83 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: are doing this at night in the dark. I'm sorry, 84 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: mister producer, Maybe I got that wrong. Did he just 85 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: say we can't find the people burning down pregnancy centers 86 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 1: because they're doing it in the dark. Obviously, that's laugh 87 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: out loud, idiotic. It's crazy, the top law enforcement officer 88 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: in the United States of America claiming they can't seem 89 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 1: to track down those street communists because it's dark out. 90 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 1: It's ridiculous. Song. It's surf, but it's so much more 91 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 1: sinister when you think about it. It's so much more 92 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: evil when you think about it. And you know what's 93 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 1: sinister and evil about it, the level of disrespect that 94 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: shows to the Senate and the American people. If I 95 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: develop a drinking problem, Let's say I just decided to 96 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: start hitting the bottle, and I want to hide it 97 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: from the wife, So I start on the way o 98 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 1: from the studio. Every single night, I decide I'm gonna 99 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 1: stop at the bar and have me to have me 100 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 1: about five or six drinks. But I don't want to 101 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: tell her. So the first night when I show home late, 102 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:37,160 Speaker 1: When I show up at home late, I say, oh, 103 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: I had a flat tire. She's gonna say, oh, that sucks. 104 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, let's get it fixed. But then when I 105 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: say that, the second night I do that, and the 106 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: third night I do that, She's going to know right away. Okay, 107 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 1: he doesn't have a flat tire. He's been lying. But 108 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: if I keep telling this blatant lie to her face 109 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 1: over and over and over again, sorry, I'm like I 110 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: had a flat tire. What does that tell you about 111 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 1: my level of respect for her? The Attorney General of 112 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: the United States of America set in front of the 113 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 1: United States Senate and told them he couldn't arrest street 114 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: communists because it's too dark outside. You GOP senators who 115 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: watched this show in your staffers, what do you think 116 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: that says about you and his thoughts on you? And 117 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: this all comes, by the way, as the government, the 118 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 1: administrative state, is embarking in pr campaign. There's no other 119 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: way to put it. You've seen all these headlines come 120 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: out bizarrely, in about the last week, there have been 121 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 1: all these FBI headlines coming out that kind of kind 122 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 1: of make the FBI look a little better to you, 123 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 1: don't they. The FBI came out and said, hey, we 124 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 1: always knew COVID came from a lab Wait, what hold on? 125 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: What are you right wingers? Now? FBI's out there sitting 126 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: down with Brett Byer. Hey, I'll just want to sit 127 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: down and give an interview. Well, why is all that happening? 128 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: Why is the why the pr campaign? Because they know 129 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 1: they're about to have to give testimony the same way 130 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: Merrit Garland just did in front of the United States 131 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: House of Representatives and probably the Senate, and they're simply 132 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: trying to soften their image. But back to what we're 133 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 1: talking about priorities for twenty twenty four, why do I 134 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: make that a priority? We don't have a country anymore 135 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 1: if this continues, it's really that serious. I need to 136 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: get this through to everybody. I've been shouting this at 137 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 1: the GOP over and over again. This is not a 138 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 1: small thing. This is not bias. These people possess the 139 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: power to send thirty armed federal agents to your front 140 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 1: door to arrest you for being pro life, and they're 141 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: using that power and that's what they're doing. Now, what 142 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 1: does that look like ten years from now, fifteen years 143 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 1: from now, twenty years and now, Chuck Grassley, the whistleblowers 144 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: listen to Chuck Grassley. Recent lawfully protective. Whistleblower disclosures to 145 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 1: my office indicate that the Justice Department and the FBI 146 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: had at one time over a dozen sources that provided 147 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,959 Speaker 1: potentially criminal information relating to Hunter Byte. I have a 148 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 1: pledge not to interfere with that investigation, and I have 149 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 1: carried through on my pledge. They covered up for the 150 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 1: president for the Sun and the president of the United 151 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 1: States of America so he could win an election and 152 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: Donald Trump would lose an election. And they've continued that 153 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 1: cover up ever since. We have dozens of whistleblowers coming 154 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: forward to talk about that. We have now a praetorian guard. 155 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 1: We have a checkup. Not in the future, it's right now. 156 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: When I'm going into cast my vote in twenty twenty four, 157 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: I want to hear the plan because you no longer 158 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 1: live in the land of the free if this is 159 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: what we have. And by the way, speaking of getting 160 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: a little bit in your face and bold, it's time 161 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 1: for us to embark on a mission. Get ready, because 162 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 1: you're gonna hear me to talk about You're gonna hear 163 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 1: me talk about this a lot on this show from 164 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 1: now on.

Who has been the aggressive 168 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: political person in your life? Who's the one who has 169 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: to bring up politics no matter what? The Democrat. They 170 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: show up at the family house, They show up at Thanksgiving, 171 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: ruining Thanksgiving. I love Hilary chop Sacks. They show up 172 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: at the neighborhood parties, they show up at the school 173 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 1: they're allowed at the school boards. They have been loud 174 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 1: and bold for a long time about what they believe, 175 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,599 Speaker 1: and it is time to return the favor. I have 176 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: had my fill of people who Democrat complaining about the 177 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,079 Speaker 1: destruction that has come their way. I actually laughed when 178 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: I saw this yesterday. You know that New York City 179 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: is going to pay twenty thousand dollars a piece to 180 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 1: the Black Lives Matter protesters who were burning down the 181 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: city just because they arrested them. And then I had 182 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 1: a New York friend of mine. This is what really 183 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 1: set me off. I had a New York friend of 184 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 1: mine telling me what idiocy. I can't believe this, And 185 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,560 Speaker 1: you know what I told him? It felt so good. 186 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 1: I told him you voted for that. It's time to 187 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 1: start getting more aggressive with friends, family, co workers. It's 188 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: time to stop coddling crazy Aunt Peggy talking about Democrat again. 189 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: This time, when crazy Aunt Peggy shows up at the 190 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving dinner and she starts complaining about the price of gas, 191 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: don't leave the room, don't hide, don't change the subject. 192 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 1: Look at Aunt Peggy and say, you voted for that. 193 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: The next time you see some drag filth. I just 194 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,559 Speaker 1: saw United Airlines. They just flew a flight from San 195 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 1: Francis as good as Sydney, and they're bragging about the 196 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: all LGBTQ plus crew, all kinds of trannies and everything 197 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 1: else packed in there. And you talk to your buddy. 198 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: Maybe it's even your dad or your uncle. He's been 199 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 1: voting Democrat his whole life. While I was in a Union, 200 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,559 Speaker 1: I gotta vote for Joe. And then he looks at 201 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 1: that out and he complains about it. Jesse. I don't 202 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: like it, Jesse. It's crazy Dad. You voted for that. 203 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: You voted for that, You voted for that. The time 204 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: of being passive has passed us by the time to 205 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 1: be aggressive is now. The next time you're a well 206 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:43,239 Speaker 1: meaning Democrat co worker, friend, family member complains about Democrat policies. 207 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: No more coddling, No more mommy. This country has very 208 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: clearly had way too much mommy time. It's time for 209 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 1: daddy to step in from now on. You voted for that, 210 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 1: normalize it all. That may have made you uncomfortable, but 211 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 1: I am right now.

The problem is this 219 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 1: for me now, now I have bone Frog coffee. You see, 220 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,679 Speaker 1: that's coffee that supports veterans.

All right, we'll be bad. 234 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: They need more ammunition, more long range precision weapons and yes, 235 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 1: fighter jets. Uh this and the and the issue really 236 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: is that, um, you know right now, they're dying. Every 237 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 1: day they're dying. So what what we are waiting for? 238 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 1: Seems to still be attached to this. I would argue 239 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: overcautious concern related to a nuclear weapon, overcautious related to 240 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 1: nuclear weapons. Joining me now my buddy b K Brian Kimber. 241 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: He's hosted the World News with b K podcast, also 242 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 1: former Air Force PJ. B K. I don't know why 243 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: everyone's stressing about nuclear weapons. I don't see what the 244 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 1: big deal is. Yeah, Jesse, I'll tell you what. I'm 245 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 1: looking at this with growing alarm. I'm watching what's going 246 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: on in Bachmot. These are some of the worst casualties 247 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: we've ever seen in the history of warfare. You know, 248 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 1: you go back through the great battles of history and 249 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 1: the psalm were done in World War One, Antietam, in 250 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 1: the United States, Gettysburg. We're rapidly approaching that if something 251 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 1: isn't done in that seat, and that's just in that 252 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 1: one battle. This is a human tragedy. In my eyes, 253 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: it doesn't and I don't care whose side you're on. 254 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 1: I think Ukraine should be able to defend themselves. The 255 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 1: essay can. But this is hundreds of thousands of people 256 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: dying a year, and in that city alone, Jesse, we're 257 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: talking tens of thousands of casualties in a matter of weeks. 258 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 1: And this is a whole new era of warfare. It's 259 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 1: drone warfare. This has bogged down into an artillery bombardment 260 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 1: and there's no end in sight. Zelenski is vowing to 261 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 1: fight to the end. I've been seeing some of the 262 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 1: chatter on telegram channels where various Ukrainian commanders are like, 263 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: we are putting new recruits into these trenches and we're 264 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 1: looking at a average of like sometimes four hours of 265 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 1: a recruit lasting in bach Moot before they're killed one 266 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 1: day at best, and they're just throwing these young kids 267 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: into the meat grinder. RuSHA is doing the same thing. 268 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 1: Vladimir Boutin is clearly out of his mind, Jesse, as 269 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: I pulled you a long time ago. I don't think 270 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 1: this ends unless something is done internally about Vladimir Putin, 271 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: and overall, I don't even like watching the social media 272 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 1: videos anymore. It's a it's a human tragedy. We're we're 273 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 1: not We're not even talking like you know ices people 274 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 1: factions killing each other, right, We're talking about Ukrainians like 275 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:08,399 Speaker 1: physics professors, teachers, electric you know, electricians, engineers. Those are 276 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,639 Speaker 1: the people now taking up arms to defend their country 277 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: and they're all just getting obliterated. And it's it's it's 278 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,639 Speaker 1: shocking to see. Is a half Ukrainian myself, my people 279 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 1: are from there, you know, one hundred years or so ago. 280 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:22,920 Speaker 1: It's it's devastating, it is, it's horrible. I think about 281 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:25,439 Speaker 1: the Russian troops too, because they're grabbing these guys and 282 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,640 Speaker 1: constricted them in there. You're right, the videos, I don't 283 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: like them anymore. B K. I've gotten to the point 284 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 1: in this whole thing where I hate Vladimir Putin, I 285 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 1: hate Zelensky pretty much just as much. I only care 286 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 1: about the people, and I want the thing to end. 287 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 1: What I can't figure out is how it ends. We 288 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: very clearly are not going to stop, and as long 289 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:47,719 Speaker 1: as we're pouring America's military equipment into their Ukraine can 290 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 1: go on a while. Putin can't afford to stop or 291 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:52,880 Speaker 1: he's going to get murdered. So how does this end? 292 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 1: It's unclear. You know, our Secretary of State Anthony Blincoln 293 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 1: was just over at the G twenty meeting. He was 294 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 1: able to not have an official meeting with their his counterpart, 295 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 1: that's Seragei Lavrov, long time for Minister of Russia, and 296 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,879 Speaker 1: they basically had a little bit of an aside and 297 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 1: Lincoln said basically, hey, we want you to stop, and 298 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:17,400 Speaker 1: Lavrov basically said, well, we're not going to and Lincoln said, well, 299 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: neither are we. And then it was like okay, and 300 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 1: I guess that's what we're doing. So everybody's dug in 301 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:25,879 Speaker 1: and I don't know what's going what it's going to 302 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:30,680 Speaker 1: take now. I you know, China is now posting basic summits, 303 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:33,880 Speaker 1: and they are looking at nations like Saudi Arabia, who 304 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,639 Speaker 1: has stayed neutral, but Saudi Arabia is now making significant 305 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: contributions humanitarian but still and this is a geopolitical war 306 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 1: that affects everything it touches. And I just don't see 307 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,879 Speaker 1: how it ends until and Jesse, even when it does end, 308 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 1: who wins. Nobody's gonna win. If Russia prevails, they're going 309 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: to inherit a giant waste land. If Ukraine prevails, they 310 00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,880 Speaker 1: will have to deal with decades and decades of rebuilding 311 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: that country. And there's there's just no winners here. No, 312 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 1: that's true, bk' I'm not naive. I know Russian. There's 313 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 1: not gonna be a couple of Russian divisions landing on 314 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:15,399 Speaker 1: the shores of California marching towards Washington anytime soon. But 315 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,439 Speaker 1: I also do know that this is a sophisticated power, 316 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: clearly not on our level. But they do have the 317 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 1: ability to touch us here. Is that something you think 318 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,160 Speaker 1: they would do in one way? And if so, what 319 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 1: can they do to us? I would like to rule 320 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 1: that out, Jesse. With this Vladimir Putin, you can't rule 321 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 1: anything out as you and I have discussed on the 322 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,919 Speaker 1: radio show many times. He sees himself is the great, 323 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 1: the great man who's going to bring back the Soviet 324 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 1: Union without so much of the communism, Like that's what 325 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: he really wants. He felt that Russia was wronged after 326 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,160 Speaker 1: the collapse of the Soviet Union, that they lost their 327 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: power and influence of the world. And he sees himself 328 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,400 Speaker 1: as this great man who's going to reunite this country 329 00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:01,159 Speaker 1: again and once again make it world power. But in 330 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 1: while he's doing that, he's made himself and all of 331 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 1: Russians complete varias on the world stage. And I don't 332 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:10,399 Speaker 1: you have to take this with a huge grain of salt, 333 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 1: But you look at opinion polls out of Russia, and 334 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 1: I've looked at many different sources, and the people there 335 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,639 Speaker 1: either have been brainwashed so much or just dranking so 336 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 1: much propaganda that they really believe what Putin is saying 337 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:28,920 Speaker 1: about d nazifying Ukraine, and they really believe this crap. Yeah, 338 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 1: and you can understand the Russians being a little bit 339 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 1: sensitive if there are Nazis on their border. Being is 340 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 1: how that didn't work out very well for anyone. Last 341 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,119 Speaker 1: time there were Nazis on their borders. All right, b K. 342 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 1: We have a serious recruiting crisis in this country, and 343 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: this is actually more complicated than everyone makes it believe. 344 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 1: Our population of young men is too fatten out of 345 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 1: shape to make it. Many of them have been on 346 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 1: too many medications to qualify. Already, you're shrinking the recruiting pool. 347 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 1: But then you get to all the stuff that we've 348 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 1: talked about a million times on this show. Young men 349 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 1: in Louisiana who've been shooting where else since they were 350 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:02,880 Speaker 1: one and a half years old, don't want to join 351 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 1: the US of Gay Army and learn how they're evil 352 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: for being white. They simply won't. They'll go do something else. BK. 353 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 1: And obviously I'm being kind of tongue in cheek, but 354 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 1: it's true. We're losing warriors to college or create trade 355 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: score wherever they're going. But that next Medal of honor 356 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 1: winner is not going to win because he's not going 357 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 1: to be in uniform. Yeah, you know, Jess, there's a 358 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:27,160 Speaker 1: there's a whole right, This topic has been debated endlessly, right, 359 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,639 Speaker 1: but I can definitely see right now, like you and I, 360 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 1: we're post nine to eleven, right, and we felt that calling. 361 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 1: I felt that calling, you know, I saw those towers 362 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,440 Speaker 1: come down. My brother was already an officer in the Marine, 363 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,239 Speaker 1: an infantry officer in the United States Marine Corps. He 364 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: was gearing up right away. I'm living in Los Angeles, 365 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 1: thinking I need to be a part of this somehow, 366 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 1: and I just felt the call. There is no call now. 367 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 1: And it became clear, even like a few years in, 368 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 1: that this was going to be a grinder as far 369 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: as the global war and terror. But at least there 370 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: was like a call. At least something happened to us, 371 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: like World War Two when Pearl Harbor was attacked and 372 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: young men line the streets saying, I have to be involved? 373 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 1: How dare they? There's why would you sign up? Now? 374 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:12,399 Speaker 1: Did God forbid be sent over to Ukraine or NATO 375 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: country where you could be vaporized before even seeing the 376 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,719 Speaker 1: front line or firing a weapon and anger? I just 377 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 1: don't see it. It's you could not pay me enough 378 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 1: to honestly be a military recruiter to these days. Yeah, 379 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 1: how are you talking into it? Hit? It's podcast, It's 380 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 1: World News with BK. I love it, Thank you, brother, 381 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: Thanks Jesse. Oh by God? All right, Michelle Tafoya is 382 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: going to join us next, a former Sunday Night football fame, 383 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 1: Michelle Tafoya, How about that. Before we get to that, 384 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 1: let's get to something real quick here. Something that hit 385 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 1: me hard. You probably heard me talk about this before, 386 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 1: is talking to my buddies when we got back from 387 00:22:57,960 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 1: my rack, and most of us, most of the guys 388 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,159 Speaker 1: I joined with about the time, it just kind of 389 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,160 Speaker 1: worked out this way. About the time my unit got 390 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 1: back from my rack, we got out a matter of months. 391 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 1: For me, I think it was two three months we 392 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 1: got back to point was over my four year and 393 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,360 Speaker 1: list it was up. And I talked to a bunch 394 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:14,920 Speaker 1: of them today and a bunch of them are doing 395 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 1: very well, and a bunch of them are not. And 396 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 1: when we sit down and break bread, have beer, you 397 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: find out that they just felt left alone when they 398 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 1: got back, and they didn't they didn't know how to 399 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 1: put themselves back together, angry, diving into the bottle, whatever. 400 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 1: It's just no one helped them put themselves back together. 401 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,640 Speaker 1: I love what Bouldercrest does because that's what they do. 402 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 1: They put veterans back together. They bring them back out 403 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 1: of that world that you go to Look, you change 404 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:50,919 Speaker 1: when you go over there. You do. I did. I 405 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: know I did. But they helped bring you back, help them, 406 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,919 Speaker 1: help them, help these veterans. I'm telling you you can 407 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 1: take it from me. This is wonderful organization. All right. 408 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 1: Go to Bouldercrest dot org and give what you can. 409 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 1: It's called Operations Struggle. It's wonderful. Look, volunteer if you can, 410 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:22,879 Speaker 1: but give Bouldercrest dot org. We'll be back. For nearly 411 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 1: three decades, she's reported the action from the sidelines. She 412 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 1: started very young. She's covered the NBA, NFL Olympics, and 413 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 1: the college football and basketball national championships. And now, during 414 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 1: these insane times in our world, Michelle Tafoya thinks we 415 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 1: need a serious dose of sanity. This is so wild 416 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:47,880 Speaker 1: to me that I get to talk to Michelle Tafoya. 417 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 1: When I got out. Everyone knows I used to be 418 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 1: the biggest football fan in the world. And when I 419 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:53,639 Speaker 1: got out of the Marines, I would sit there on 420 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 1: Sunday and watch football for like eight nine hours a day. 421 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 1: And Michelle Tafoya on my television meant that it was 422 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:02,239 Speaker 1: Sunday night ball time. And she joins, I mean, now 423 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 1: she's the host of the Sideline Sanity podcast Michelle Okay, 424 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: I don't watch football anymore. We'll get to that in 425 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:11,879 Speaker 1: a minute. But that had to be one of the 426 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 1: coolest gigs, right. That had to feel big and huge, 427 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 1: didn't it? It did. Every Sunday night felt massive. It 428 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: was like every Sunday night was a rehearsal for a 429 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,159 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. In fact, I would say that every Sunday 430 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:27,399 Speaker 1: night we prepared like it was the Super Bowl, and 431 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: the production crew was second to none. You know, you're 432 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,640 Speaker 1: working with Al Michaels and Chris Collinsworth. After I got 433 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,159 Speaker 1: to work with John Madden on Monday night football. It 434 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,640 Speaker 1: was tremendous. I don't regret a single minute of it. 435 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 1: I would either. Do you ever get nervous when you're 436 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,360 Speaker 1: sitting on the sidelines and you know about all ten 437 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 1: thirteen million people are watching you? You know what? I 438 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 1: tried to think about the one person that mattered the most, 439 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:55,440 Speaker 1: and that was my producer, Fred Goodelli and making him happy. 440 00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 1: I knew if I lived up to Fred's standards, I 441 00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 1: was living up to the only standard I needed to 442 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 1: worry about. So I think there were a couple times 443 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:08,879 Speaker 1: super Bowls can be so kind of overwhelming. I especially 444 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 1: remember the one in Arizona. I think that was my 445 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 1: fourth of five, may have been my third, but anyway, 446 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 1: I remember that the roof being opened, the place being packed, 447 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,680 Speaker 1: the light bulbs going on, the flash bowlbs going off 448 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:26,239 Speaker 1: on everyone's cameras, and it felt huge, and you know, 449 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: but I don't know, you sort of once the kick happens, 450 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:35,159 Speaker 1: everything's fine. That's what a small world I was at 451 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 1: that Super Bowl. Now, granted I was up in the 452 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 1: noseweed sections and you were on the sideline, but it's 453 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 1: basically the same thing. All right. We didn't see me 454 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:44,160 Speaker 1: wave to you. You know, I thought that was I thought. 455 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 1: I told my wife that's what happened, and she didn't 456 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:49,199 Speaker 1: believe me. All Right, I don't. I don't watch the 457 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 1: NFL anymore because I hold a grudge and I'm a 458 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 1: pig headed person, and I haven't forgotten when professional sports, 459 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:57,960 Speaker 1: which I've loved my whole life, decided to just dump 460 00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: all over my country for an extended period of time. 461 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:04,400 Speaker 1: It just became the acceptable thing. I haven't let that go. 462 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,159 Speaker 1: Do you think the NFL regrets it? Probably not, from 463 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: what I understand that TV ratings are still high. But 464 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: did they look back on all that insanity and think, Wow, 465 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,440 Speaker 1: we did a good thing there. You know, I don't 466 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 1: know if they think they did a good thing. I 467 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,880 Speaker 1: think that the reactions were knee jerk. I think that 468 00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:28,639 Speaker 1: the attention Colin Kaepernick received was one man impacted the 469 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:32,159 Speaker 1: entire league in a way that I'm not sure should 470 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:36,400 Speaker 1: have happened. But when you get down to topics like 471 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 1: police brutality, racism, black lives matter, I think everyone's sort 472 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:47,160 Speaker 1: of cowers and everyone feels guilty for whatever reason, even 473 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 1: if they have absolutely nothing to do with any of 474 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,920 Speaker 1: the issues of the day. It's interesting. I talked to 475 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 1: Nate Boyer recently. He is a former Seahawk, had a 476 00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:00,119 Speaker 1: cup of coffee with the Seahawks, but he actually met 477 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,200 Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick before Kaepernick knelled for the first time. Nate 478 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 1: Boyer's a former Green Beret, gave a lot of time 479 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,439 Speaker 1: and effort to his country, obviously risked his life for 480 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 1: his country, and discovered that Colin Kaepernick was sitting on 481 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 1: the bench during the anthem and wrote an open letter 482 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,439 Speaker 1: to Colin, and Colin said, come visit me. I'm going 483 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,359 Speaker 1: to be doing a preseason game down in San Diego, 484 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:23,159 Speaker 1: come visit me. Well, they sat down together along with 485 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 1: Eric Reid, another guy who knelt, and Nate said, look, 486 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: here's the thing. That anthem, that flag, those things matter 487 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 1: to me. I've seen my friends come home with a 488 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 1: flag over their coffins. And to his credit, Kaepernick said 489 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 1: to him, is there a way you think I can 490 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 1: do my protest because I'm gonna I'm gonna stick with 491 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 1: this that would not hurt or offend the military. And 492 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 1: he said, well, usually, you know, when we see a 493 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 1: casket coming home, and you think of church, you think 494 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 1: of God, you think of prayer, we kneel. And so 495 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 1: he decided to kneel. So that was I think a 496 00:28:57,080 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 1: step in the right direction, but it's still it just 497 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: let's be honest about this, folks. People sitting down watching 498 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: a football game want to unify. They want to hear 499 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 1: that national anthem and sing it with pride. They want 500 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 1: to love their neighbor next to them, whether they're rooting 501 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 1: for the same team or not. They want to release 502 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 1: from the everyday stresses. They want to enjoy that battle 503 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 1: on the gridiron. And they don't want young men who 504 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 1: have never gone to war to preach to them about 505 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:30,239 Speaker 1: how they should feel about the flag. Yeah, that's one 506 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 1: of the things that, honestly that plums on about it, 507 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 1: and I miss that about it. I think sports is 508 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 1: important for every society. I don't think it's just a game. 509 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 1: I realize it's a game. But there's a reason tiny 510 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 1: tribes have sports they have It helps bring people together. 511 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 1: It's part of what brings people together. And now I 512 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 1: don't know, maybe I'm maybe I'm old fashioned, maybe I'm 513 00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 1: just stupid. I feel like we've lost that with the 514 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 1: new version of America's athlete. This is not universal, obviously, 515 00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 1: I know there's a bunch of them, but there's so 516 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 1: much of that now it's a turn off for me. Yeah, 517 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 1: and I think that you are not alone. I really do. 518 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 1: This term woke that's going around, right, It's not just new, 519 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 1: it's been going around, but it is. It is reaching 520 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 1: into every aspect of our lives. Academia, even kindergarten, sports, film, television, news, 521 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 1: you name it, and we are you know, we're looking 522 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 1: at a new Peter Pan trailer, We're looking at roll 523 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:33,800 Speaker 1: doll books that are being rewritten to accommodate people. And 524 00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 1: so I think that I think that this is turning 525 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,040 Speaker 1: a lot of people off to a lot of things. 526 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:42,800 Speaker 1: And when you push that hard on something that people 527 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 1: feel strongly about, they're bound to push back. And so 528 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 1: in this venue, I think pushing back means turning off 529 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 1: the television. I have a tough time watching the NBA anymore, 530 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: I really do. So. I don't disagree with you on that, 531 00:30:56,400 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 1: and it breaks my heart too. I can't help remember 532 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 1: Whitney Houston singing the national anthem before the Super Bowl 533 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 1: when we were started the Iraqi War, and I think 534 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 1: we all had chills, we all had goose bumps. I 535 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:12,360 Speaker 1: remember nine to eleven how we all locked arms and 536 00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 1: said never again, and we're not going to forget and 537 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:18,880 Speaker 1: we love this country and Democrats, Republicans, independence can all 538 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 1: stick together. And that seems to have just dissolved. It 539 00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 1: does seem to have dissolved. And I'm not sure how 540 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:31,160 Speaker 1: we get that back, and maybe we can't. But you're 541 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: the sports expert. I'm not even doing this your whole life. 542 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 1: Can we Is there a way to come back from that? 543 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 1: Because it is very political now, people say, don't make 544 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 1: it political. It's a political issue. It is, it's a 545 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 1: cultural issue. I think one of the most troubling and 546 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:48,280 Speaker 1: I will take flak for saying this Jesse, but I'm 547 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 1: gonna say it anyway. I think one of the biggest 548 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 1: mistakes mistake might be the wrong word. One decision that 549 00:31:55,960 --> 00:32:01,120 Speaker 1: has really had a lot of impact on sport all 550 00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: over the country is when the NFL decided to play 551 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 1: two national anthems. Now, there is one national anthem in 552 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 1: this country because we are one nation, so we have 553 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 1: one song. But they just you know, they discovered that 554 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:21,960 Speaker 1: this black national anthem spoke for a lot of black 555 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 1: people in America. So lift every voice and sing is 556 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 1: now part of the formula before every Super Bowl before Now. 557 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 1: I was at a girl's high school basketball game recently, 558 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 1: and to mark the beginning of Black History Month, they 559 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,080 Speaker 1: did not play the national anthem as they normally do. 560 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 1: They played only the black national anthem. Some people cheered 561 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 1: wildly about that. I felt like, why are we doing 562 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 1: this to ourselves? Why are we dividing ourselves. We can 563 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 1: all acknowledge we live in the same country. We have 564 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 1: a national anthem, and that's the anthem that plays at 565 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 1: the Olympic Games, and that's the anthem that represents our country. 566 00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 1: Why are we doing this? And I would posit that 567 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 1: the NFL really is responsible for bringing that into now. 568 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 1: For some people, they may think it's a great thing. 569 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: I don't have any problem with the song. It's a 570 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 1: beautiful song. But to suggest that it is the Black 571 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 1: national anthem suggests that we have two nations here, not one, 572 00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 1: and I think that's quite divisive. It is. It is 573 00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 1: the Sideline Sanity Podcast. Recommend you go check it out. Michelle, 574 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 1: Thank you, I appreciate you anytime.

That sounds like a good time to bring 577 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 1: in our boy Mike Slater. Huh. All right, let's talk 578 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:44,720 Speaker 1: for a moment about dogs. And you know something that 579 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 1: hits me. I talk about my dogs digestive problems. But 580 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:51,600 Speaker 1: my sister has dogs, she actually has bulldogs. They have 581 00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:55,120 Speaker 1: problems too. My folks have labs. They each have they 582 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 1: each they have two golden labs, yellow labs, and they 583 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 1: have problems. They're always at the vet, always figuring something 584 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 1: out and getting up there in years. Part of the 585 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:10,840 Speaker 1: reason I love rough greens is those aching joints on 586 00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:16,319 Speaker 1: your old dog get better coat is better. Why now, 587 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 1: why does this happen? Why is it? Why did it 588 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 1: fix my dogs digestive issues? Because you're giving your dog 589 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: actual nutrition. We think we are. We buy them food, 590 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:27,360 Speaker 1: we give them, we try to get them good food, 591 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:32,439 Speaker 1: but it's all dead. Dog food is dead food. Let's 592 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 1: give them real nutrition. Pour some Rough Greens on their food. 593 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:38,279 Speaker 1: All right.

You go to the 598 00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 1: Politics by Faith podcast by my boy Mike Slater. Really 599 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 1: just makes your day better, helps you understand a little 600 00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:09,879 Speaker 1: bit more of why we're going through what we're going through, 601 00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,520 Speaker 1: and that there are forces at work beyond just flesh 602 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:18,200 Speaker 1: and blood. No joining me now, my buddy, Mike. All right, Mike. First, anxiety, 603 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,719 Speaker 1: this is something people struggle with. I have people in 604 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,239 Speaker 1: my own family who struggle mightily with it. If I 605 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,720 Speaker 1: had any feelings to speak of whatsoever, I may struggle 606 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:30,360 Speaker 1: with it. But it is something real for people, and 607 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,840 Speaker 1: I am aware that it consumes people it does. It 608 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,919 Speaker 1: just owns your life. Talk to me about it. Yeah. 609 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,239 Speaker 1: One solution is to just be a psychopath and yeah, 610 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:41,680 Speaker 1: like talk to worry about it at all. It's Jesse 611 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 1: Kelly approach. But if you're like a normal human being, 612 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 1: then you're gonna it's gonna be an issue. Yeah. So 613 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 1: that's our most recent podcasts about anxiety. We got a 614 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 1: lot of things to be anxious about. We got well 615 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 1: three all the time. You're just talking about that. We've 616 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:58,680 Speaker 1: got economic issues. It's just not stop. I was reading 617 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 1: an article the other day about moms who are micro 618 00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:08,440 Speaker 1: dosing mushrooms, what like psilocybin, magic mushrooms, Like what is 619 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:10,759 Speaker 1: going on? I mean in the sixties and seventies it 620 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 1: was valium and then edible marijuana and wine moms, and 621 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,440 Speaker 1: now mushrooms Like holy cow. People will do anything to 622 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 1: get away from their issues, as opposed to just being 623 00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 1: a psychopath like Jesse. But we're like, what is this, 624 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 1: what is it? Like? Oh, there's a report from the 625 00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: Federal Reserve about where all the prime age working men are, 626 00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:32,560 Speaker 1: and the Federal Reserve says, oh, well, they're just all 627 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,839 Speaker 1: taking drugs and playing video games. They're not being men. 628 00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:39,360 Speaker 1: They're numbing out and not facing the realities of life. 629 00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 1: So I don't want to be anxious. I don't want 630 00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,880 Speaker 1: to be taken out that there's people who hate you 631 00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: and forces at work, as you said, Jelly Jesse, that 632 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:51,920 Speaker 1: hate you, and they want you anxious, and they want 633 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:53,640 Speaker 1: you weak, and they want you scared, and they want 634 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:56,239 Speaker 1: you worried, and they want to divide your mind so 635 00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,880 Speaker 1: that they can confuse you and divide you politically and socially. 636 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 1: And I don't want them to get away with it anyway. 637 00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 1: Anxiety it's a Greek word. It's two Greek words combined 638 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,960 Speaker 1: that means divided mind. So when you focus on one thing, 639 00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:09,280 Speaker 1: you have shalom, that's peace and wholeness. But when you're anxious, 640 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:11,319 Speaker 1: you have a divided mind, your attention chopped up into 641 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:12,759 Speaker 1: a million different pieces, and you're all over the place, 642 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 1: and you're running through a different, million, million differ scenarios 643 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 1: and it's just making you all anxious and it will 644 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:20,720 Speaker 1: mess you up. In the podcast, we read an excerpt 645 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:25,160 Speaker 1: from the Roman poet Ovid in Metamorphoses. He's writing about envy, 646 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 1: but it's the same thing, envy anxiety. It's all like 647 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:30,319 Speaker 1: the root, and Athena goes to visit Envy, and Envy 648 00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:34,520 Speaker 1: lives in this disgusting underground layer and it's filthy and 649 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:38,640 Speaker 1: covered with this slime that stinks. And Athena asks Envy 650 00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:41,680 Speaker 1: to go and attack this princess, and Envy leaves her lair, 651 00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 1: and she leaves this path of destruction in her wake, 652 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 1: and the fields are all withered behind her, and venom 653 00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:50,120 Speaker 1: drips from her disgusting corpse, and it's unbelievable how Ovid 654 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:52,800 Speaker 1: writes this obviously, And then Envy touches the neck of 655 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:56,920 Speaker 1: this princess and instantly she becomes envious of her sister's marriage, 656 00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,360 Speaker 1: and it just eats away at her life and rots 657 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 1: away at her the rest of her life. And I 658 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:03,439 Speaker 1: share this and it's like jeez later, but I share 659 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:05,600 Speaker 1: it because we need to hate it. We need to 660 00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:08,840 Speaker 1: hate envy, we need to hate anxiety, we need to 661 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:11,600 Speaker 1: hate the people who are trying to divide us with 662 00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:14,279 Speaker 1: these things. And when you see it as something portrayed 663 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 1: so vividly, it's like wow, Like the point is to 664 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:19,200 Speaker 1: smack you across the face of it and say, I 665 00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:21,200 Speaker 1: don't want this anymore, and I want to get to 666 00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:22,759 Speaker 1: the root of it and get it out of my life. 667 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 1: And I don't want to run from it. I don't 668 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:25,359 Speaker 1: want to run from it with video games. I don't 669 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:27,279 Speaker 1: want to run from it with magic mushrooms. I don't 670 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:28,520 Speaker 1: want to run from it. I want to get to 671 00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:30,360 Speaker 1: the root of it, root it out, get rid of 672 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:33,280 Speaker 1: it so I can be a shalone, single, focused minded 673 00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:37,400 Speaker 1: person again and be effective in this life, not divided anymore. 674 00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:41,400 Speaker 1: So that's a difference between me and Slater. He reads 675 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:45,040 Speaker 1: Roman poets named Ovid and I read Shells Superstein. That's 676 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:49,960 Speaker 1: just the difference. Betwe Hey, lots of wisdom in that Beard. 677 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 1: Don't don't, don't pick down on Shell, beautiful Beard. I 678 00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:55,680 Speaker 1: used to love Shell. I used to love Shell when 679 00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:57,399 Speaker 1: I was a kid. Mike, you have a special coming 680 00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:00,359 Speaker 1: up on the first. What is it? What's it about? Yeah, 681 00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 1: so this Friday, four o'clock, it's about taxes. Talk about anxiety, right, 682 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 1: So we talk with Grover Norquist about the state of taxes. 683 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:09,760 Speaker 1: But then we also go into history. So, like I remember, 684 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:12,319 Speaker 1: there's a debate years ago and they said what tax 685 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:14,640 Speaker 1: rate should we have? And Ron Paul said the income 686 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 1: tax should be what it's been for most of American 687 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:21,120 Speaker 1: history zero percent. So how did we fund the government 688 00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 1: before there was any income tax? How did they change 689 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:27,040 Speaker 1: it the Constitution the sixteenth Amendment to make an income 690 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 1: does And then where are we going? You know, in 691 00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:30,920 Speaker 1: California they're proposing a wealth tax. Where are they tax 692 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:33,239 Speaker 1: you for ten years even after you move out of 693 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:36,239 Speaker 1: the state. So what is the state of our taxes? 694 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:38,520 Speaker 1: And they'll never one of the principles is it will 695 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:41,160 Speaker 1: never be enough. They'll always want more. They'll always find 696 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 1: new ways to take your money. And also my favorite 697 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:47,359 Speaker 1: part is they're never the greedy ones. You're greedy, Jesse, 698 00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:49,239 Speaker 1: because you write a best selling book and make a 699 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 1: lot of money, rightfully so, and you want to keep 700 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:54,319 Speaker 1: that money. They're never greedy, even though they're the ones 701 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:56,319 Speaker 1: who want to take your money and spend it on 702 00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:58,400 Speaker 1: things that benefit them. They're not greedy. The only you 703 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 1: are the greedy ones. So we'll get to the rid 704 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 1: of all that as well. Mike, I'm not going to 705 00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 1: come on this show and turn it into an infomercial 706 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:08,720 Speaker 1: to buy the Anti Communist Manifesto, which could be purchased 707 00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:11,360 Speaker 1: at Jesse kellybook dot com.
