WEBVTT - He's Going To "S" a "B"

0:00:10.800 --> 0:00:15.080
<v Speaker 1>Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

0:00:15.160 --> 0:00:19.799
<v Speaker 1>Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Caddy Armstrong and

0:00:19.920 --> 0:00:35.400
<v Speaker 1>Jet and arms of my workspace has become completely disordered.

0:00:35.600 --> 0:00:39.400
<v Speaker 1>It's just it's out of control. Mm hmm. And I

0:00:39.440 --> 0:00:46.640
<v Speaker 1>think it's a disordered mind, disordered workspace something like that. Dude,

0:00:47.040 --> 0:00:50.640
<v Speaker 1>maybe we should take an hour and simply tidy. I

0:00:50.640 --> 0:00:53.040
<v Speaker 1>think it's a reflection of a maniac a sort of

0:00:53.080 --> 0:00:59.840
<v Speaker 1>living environment. Live from Studio C, a dimly let room

0:01:00.120 --> 0:01:03.120
<v Speaker 1>within the bowels of the Armstrong in Getting Communications Compound.

0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:05.600
<v Speaker 1>And hey, y'all on a Tuesday or under the tutelage

0:01:05.640 --> 0:01:09.840
<v Speaker 1>of our general manager, Peace and tranquility. Wait a minute,

0:01:09.880 --> 0:01:14.240
<v Speaker 1>they did what he said? What they So do you

0:01:14.360 --> 0:01:16.200
<v Speaker 1>know where we are currently? I've been trying to get

0:01:16.200 --> 0:01:17.759
<v Speaker 1>a handle on that because I was watching a bunch

0:01:17.760 --> 0:01:19.720
<v Speaker 1>of news when I got up and since then, and

0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:24.920
<v Speaker 1>a lot of it was recorded, like you know, news

0:01:24.959 --> 0:01:27.000
<v Speaker 1>that happened really really early in the morning, and so

0:01:28.280 --> 0:01:30.360
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't watching it live. But so it's all recorded,

0:01:30.400 --> 0:01:33.560
<v Speaker 1>but it keeps getting surpassed by breaking news. So where

0:01:33.600 --> 0:01:37.840
<v Speaker 1>are we currently? Trump announced a ceasefire last night or

0:01:38.040 --> 0:01:41.959
<v Speaker 1>late yesterday afternoon, he said, hey, Israel and Random agreed

0:01:42.000 --> 0:01:43.560
<v Speaker 1>to a cease fire. Then there were all kinds of

0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:46.240
<v Speaker 1>news stories floating around saying Israel has An agreed to

0:01:46.240 --> 0:01:48.280
<v Speaker 1>a cease far, Iran has An agreed to a cease far.

0:01:48.480 --> 0:01:49.840
<v Speaker 1>And then by the time I went to a bed,

0:01:49.920 --> 0:01:54.280
<v Speaker 1>both Israel abed my bed. By the time one isn't enough.

0:01:54.920 --> 0:01:58.440
<v Speaker 1>Any bed will do, just any bed near me. Once

0:01:58.480 --> 0:02:03.800
<v Speaker 1>I went to abed, Israel and Iran had agreed to

0:02:03.840 --> 0:02:09.239
<v Speaker 1>a ceaspire. Yes, And I was reading some of the

0:02:09.240 --> 0:02:11.400
<v Speaker 1>commentary on that. Ian Bremer said. On his side, he

0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:16.200
<v Speaker 1>said Iran has as an expression recently used in the

0:02:16.240 --> 0:02:19.480
<v Speaker 1>Oval office, Iran has no cards to play, so he

0:02:19.560 --> 0:02:22.280
<v Speaker 1>wasn't surprised of a sea spire. Okay, so where are

0:02:22.320 --> 0:02:27.000
<v Speaker 1>we currently, well at this minute, I wish I could

0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:30.200
<v Speaker 1>tell you in a definitive way as of this minute. Well,

0:02:30.240 --> 0:02:33.760
<v Speaker 1>the last I heard, and I'm checking again, the idea

0:02:33.880 --> 0:02:36.880
<v Speaker 1>was that, look, you got operations going on, you got

0:02:36.919 --> 0:02:39.480
<v Speaker 1>planes in the air, you got missiles you're launching at

0:02:39.520 --> 0:02:42.720
<v Speaker 1>Israel Iran. Everybody you know, you got like twelve hours

0:02:42.720 --> 0:02:45.840
<v Speaker 1>to mop things up. This was yesterday, last night, and

0:02:46.639 --> 0:02:49.480
<v Speaker 1>it would seem that the mopping up has not stopped

0:02:50.000 --> 0:02:53.280
<v Speaker 1>according to the President's intended timetable, so he's pissed off

0:02:53.320 --> 0:02:58.560
<v Speaker 1>about it at both parties. He's mad at Israel and Iran. Yes, yeah,

0:02:58.600 --> 0:03:01.320
<v Speaker 1>In fact, he said some shocking strong things about Israel

0:03:01.360 --> 0:03:04.480
<v Speaker 1>which I thought were ill advised, but that's just me. Well,

0:03:04.520 --> 0:03:08.560
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't. I was just watching a really interesting discussion

0:03:08.680 --> 0:03:11.800
<v Speaker 1>with the Washington Post leading analyst of this sort of stuff,

0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:16.080
<v Speaker 1>and I think he's right, and that Trump is a

0:03:16.160 --> 0:03:20.359
<v Speaker 1>make trade not war guy. He doesn't understand why anybody

0:03:20.360 --> 0:03:23.040
<v Speaker 1>would ever want to do anything that disrupts their ability

0:03:23.560 --> 0:03:27.040
<v Speaker 1>to just make money and live your life, which I

0:03:27.120 --> 0:03:30.240
<v Speaker 1>understand on a certain level. It is amazing that human

0:03:30.280 --> 0:03:33.120
<v Speaker 1>beings ever want to do anything other than figure out

0:03:33.120 --> 0:03:35.800
<v Speaker 1>a way to, you know, just better your life. And

0:03:35.840 --> 0:03:38.080
<v Speaker 1>you would think you would, no matter what you disagree on,

0:03:38.240 --> 0:03:39.760
<v Speaker 1>come up with a way to figure out, how are

0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:44.000
<v Speaker 1>we both going to move forward and better our lives. Well,

0:03:44.040 --> 0:03:46.240
<v Speaker 1>I think net Yahoo has to go to him and

0:03:46.280 --> 0:03:49.040
<v Speaker 1>speak a language he understands. Mister President. This problem we

0:03:49.080 --> 0:03:51.760
<v Speaker 1>have with Iran and its proxies, it's like a leak.

0:03:52.280 --> 0:03:55.000
<v Speaker 1>It's like a water leak around the foundation of a

0:03:55.080 --> 0:03:58.160
<v Speaker 1>hotel you're building. And if you just wait till you've

0:03:58.160 --> 0:04:01.240
<v Speaker 1>got the leak dealt with ninety per and then you

0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:05.040
<v Speaker 1>start building, you're just begging for a problem. We gotta

0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:07.680
<v Speaker 1>get the leak stopped one hundred percent. It's gonna take

0:04:07.720 --> 0:04:10.560
<v Speaker 1>a little longer. Well, I expect the ceasefire to happen.

0:04:10.600 --> 0:04:12.400
<v Speaker 1>I could be wrong, but I expect it to happen

0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:14.400
<v Speaker 1>and hold at some point. It just it doesn't make

0:04:14.400 --> 0:04:17.719
<v Speaker 1>sense to me that it wouldn't. Iran does have no

0:04:17.839 --> 0:04:21.960
<v Speaker 1>cards to play. They got nothing, They've got nothing to play.

0:04:22.080 --> 0:04:25.240
<v Speaker 1>Obviously Israel wants the war to stop. Uh. Well, the

0:04:25.320 --> 0:04:28.320
<v Speaker 1>question becomes one hundred percent. Has Israel accomplished what it

0:04:28.360 --> 0:04:33.080
<v Speaker 1>thought was necessary to you know, push off Iran's nuclearization

0:04:33.160 --> 0:04:36.360
<v Speaker 1>for whatever time period they deemed as the minimum. That's

0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:39.000
<v Speaker 1>the only question to me. If they still have a

0:04:39.040 --> 0:04:41.760
<v Speaker 1>couple of sites to take out, a couple of you know,

0:04:42.000 --> 0:04:46.000
<v Speaker 1>manufactures of the electric motors of centrifuges or whatever it

0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:50.320
<v Speaker 1>happens to be, you gotta finish that, and and an

0:04:50.440 --> 0:04:55.599
<v Speaker 1>artificially imposed, hastily announced truce is not necessarily going to

0:04:55.640 --> 0:04:59.080
<v Speaker 1>allow them to accomplish that goal. So yeah, who knows,

0:04:59.080 --> 0:05:02.080
<v Speaker 1>but Trump is annoyed. I know that. As one old

0:05:02.360 --> 0:05:05.320
<v Speaker 1>international hand I saw on one of the channels who's

0:05:05.360 --> 0:05:07.440
<v Speaker 1>followed a lot of wars for many, many decades, said,

0:05:09.960 --> 0:05:12.880
<v Speaker 1>ceasefires and lands of wars always go this way. There's

0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:16.800
<v Speaker 1>always like last minute. It's like separating two boxers at

0:05:16.800 --> 0:05:18.520
<v Speaker 1>the bell. They're each trying to get one jab and

0:05:18.600 --> 0:05:21.719
<v Speaker 1>as they get away, which is horrifying if you've ever

0:05:21.839 --> 0:05:24.440
<v Speaker 1>read or watched all is quiet on the Western Front.

0:05:24.880 --> 0:05:28.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean the idea that they're and this has happened

0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:30.760
<v Speaker 1>in many wars, including that one World War One, where

0:05:30.800 --> 0:05:32.960
<v Speaker 1>there are generals that want to like take one more hill.

0:05:33.240 --> 0:05:35.080
<v Speaker 1>I know the ceasefire, the war is over, but I

0:05:35.080 --> 0:05:36.600
<v Speaker 1>don't want to take one more hill. I don't care

0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:39.000
<v Speaker 1>about that particular nineteen year old who's going to die

0:05:39.080 --> 0:05:43.200
<v Speaker 1>as I take that hill. It's just absolutely horrifying, but

0:05:43.279 --> 0:05:47.080
<v Speaker 1>it is a reality. I guess, yeah. I think it's

0:05:47.200 --> 0:05:51.400
<v Speaker 1>less that than what I was describing. Honestly, from the

0:05:51.440 --> 0:05:57.320
<v Speaker 1>Iranian side, it's just a apathetic I mean, like pitiful

0:05:57.440 --> 0:06:00.320
<v Speaker 1>effort at face saving going on right now because they

0:06:00.360 --> 0:06:03.920
<v Speaker 1>aren't achieving any strategic goals whatsoever. By shooting their missiles

0:06:03.960 --> 0:06:06.360
<v Speaker 1>about they're just depleting their supply of missiles. So I'm

0:06:06.360 --> 0:06:09.039
<v Speaker 1>just looking at the headline on CNN Trump, I think

0:06:09.080 --> 0:06:13.640
<v Speaker 1>they both violated the ceasefire. Fox Iranian missile barrage kills

0:06:13.680 --> 0:06:17.799
<v Speaker 1>four in Israel. They're going with at least a headline

0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:21.560
<v Speaker 1>right now that doesn't suggest Israel did anything. They're both

0:06:21.600 --> 0:06:25.120
<v Speaker 1>still lobbing at each other. Yeah, be interesting to see

0:06:25.120 --> 0:06:29.000
<v Speaker 1>where this ends up. I'd like it to stop. I'd

0:06:29.040 --> 0:06:31.799
<v Speaker 1>like all kinds of frequents when we've accomplished the goal.

0:06:32.680 --> 0:06:35.520
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, in general, of course, ye ormonger neo con

0:06:35.640 --> 0:06:38.120
<v Speaker 1>that's what we're talking. Oh, you're right, gosh, there's no

0:06:38.200 --> 0:06:41.280
<v Speaker 1>answer to that argument. That's an old over work at

0:06:41.320 --> 0:06:44.400
<v Speaker 1>you in the argument working with a neocon, which is

0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:46.600
<v Speaker 1>like the term fascist or what was the other one

0:06:46.600 --> 0:06:50.000
<v Speaker 1>we had yesterday. That can mean anythani. Nazi means anything

0:06:50.120 --> 0:06:53.799
<v Speaker 1>anybody you don't like for any reason. So whoever, for instance,

0:06:53.800 --> 0:06:55.640
<v Speaker 1>whoever cleaned out the fridge last week and poured out

0:06:55.680 --> 0:06:59.520
<v Speaker 1>my dream clearly a Nazi fascial Nazi neocon versu sort

0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:03.080
<v Speaker 1>of Nazi o'conn. We should start the show officially because

0:07:03.120 --> 0:07:05.520
<v Speaker 1>the clip we've got is so good. It just happened

0:07:05.520 --> 0:07:07.360
<v Speaker 1>a little bit ago, and it shows you how mad

0:07:07.440 --> 0:07:10.560
<v Speaker 1>Trump is. I'm Jack Armstrong, He's Joe Getty on this.

0:07:10.640 --> 0:07:14.440
<v Speaker 1>It is Tuesday, June twenty fourth, the year twenty twenty five,

0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:17.040
<v Speaker 1>or Armstrong and getting we approve of this program. All right,

0:07:17.120 --> 0:07:20.160
<v Speaker 1>let's begin officially then, according to FCC rules and regulations,

0:07:20.200 --> 0:07:22.360
<v Speaker 1>so much to do. As always here we go at

0:07:22.440 --> 0:07:23.880
<v Speaker 1>mark you what we have.

0:07:24.000 --> 0:07:27.520
<v Speaker 2>We basically have two countries that have been fighting so

0:07:27.720 --> 0:07:30.480
<v Speaker 2>long and so hard that they don't know what the

0:07:30.520 --> 0:07:32.160
<v Speaker 2>fuck they're doing. You understand that?

0:07:33.720 --> 0:07:36.800
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, that is the press. Why is it athleeked?

0:07:37.040 --> 0:07:40.120
<v Speaker 1>That is presidential news? Damn it. So I'm looking up

0:07:40.120 --> 0:07:44.440
<v Speaker 1>at CNN Israel, Luran quote, don't know what the f

0:07:44.520 --> 0:07:47.240
<v Speaker 1>asterisk asterisk k they're doing? What is the word I

0:07:47.320 --> 0:07:50.960
<v Speaker 1>wonder for funk? I believe fork fork they don't know

0:07:50.960 --> 0:07:54.720
<v Speaker 1>what the fork they're doing, right, Flack with a K.

0:07:56.480 --> 0:08:00.560
<v Speaker 1>That is from a guy who's been in rate his

0:08:00.600 --> 0:08:07.239
<v Speaker 1>whole life. Standpoint, absolutely one hundred percent justifiable to play

0:08:07.240 --> 0:08:09.720
<v Speaker 1>that unbleeped. But nobody's gonna have the guts to do it.

0:08:10.040 --> 0:08:11.880
<v Speaker 1>I would if I were running this place, but I'm

0:08:11.880 --> 0:08:15.800
<v Speaker 1>not our boss would s a b if your pardon expression, Wow,

0:08:16.160 --> 0:08:18.440
<v Speaker 1>if I think you can say brick, but you know whatever,

0:08:19.040 --> 0:08:22.640
<v Speaker 1>these are uncertain times. Yeah, don't do it the other

0:08:22.640 --> 0:08:27.800
<v Speaker 1>way around. Yes, I think he would be if we

0:08:27.880 --> 0:08:32.400
<v Speaker 1>played it unbleeped. But no chance in hell that you

0:08:32.400 --> 0:08:34.800
<v Speaker 1>could get fined by the FCC for that. The President

0:08:34.800 --> 0:08:38.720
<v Speaker 1>of the United States during a moment of wartime, just

0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:40.840
<v Speaker 1>made a comment. You have to be able to air

0:08:40.960 --> 0:08:44.720
<v Speaker 1>that to people on the public airwaves so the people

0:08:44.760 --> 0:08:48.400
<v Speaker 1>know what the president said. Right. It could be argued

0:08:48.480 --> 0:08:51.240
<v Speaker 1>we know what he said, but yeah, it's ironic that

0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:54.520
<v Speaker 1>we both abhorr people using foul language in public. I

0:08:54.520 --> 0:08:56.360
<v Speaker 1>don't think you can have a choice whether to see it.

0:08:56.400 --> 0:08:59.880
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, no news, it's absolutely defensible on First Amendment.

0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:01.720
<v Speaker 1>I understand your point that we know what he said,

0:09:01.720 --> 0:09:04.640
<v Speaker 1>but it loses so much of its sting. Yes, and

0:09:04.679 --> 0:09:08.319
<v Speaker 1>the president wanted it to have a sting. Yes. Indeed,

0:09:08.920 --> 0:09:11.880
<v Speaker 1>speaking of sting, let's not hold back, Michael. You got

0:09:11.920 --> 0:09:15.000
<v Speaker 1>forty b in front of you. The president was running hot,

0:09:15.760 --> 0:09:18.280
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump coming in hot here, and I.

0:09:18.240 --> 0:09:21.360
<v Speaker 2>Will say I think CNN or to apologize to the

0:09:21.440 --> 0:09:24.640
<v Speaker 2>pilots of the v twos. I think that MSDNC o

0:09:24.760 --> 0:09:29.000
<v Speaker 2>to apologize. I think these guys, really, these networks are

0:09:29.000 --> 0:09:34.480
<v Speaker 2>these cable networks are real losers. You're really you're realising.

0:09:34.720 --> 0:09:36.839
<v Speaker 1>Oh he's just getting started. Roll on, Michael, roll on,

0:09:36.920 --> 0:09:41.080
<v Speaker 1>come on, if you do.

0:09:43.120 --> 0:09:46.280
<v Speaker 2>With gutless ness. I say that to CNN because I

0:09:46.320 --> 0:09:49.000
<v Speaker 2>watch it. I have no choice. I gotta watch that garbage.

0:09:49.040 --> 0:09:50.760
<v Speaker 2>It's all garbage, it's all fake news.

0:09:51.240 --> 0:09:52.600
<v Speaker 1>But I think CNN is.

0:09:52.920 --> 0:09:56.000
<v Speaker 2>A gutless group of people, and the people that run

0:09:56.040 --> 0:09:58.680
<v Speaker 2>it nobody even knows. There's been sold so many times,

0:09:58.679 --> 0:10:00.120
<v Speaker 2>but the people that are run it or to you're

0:10:00.120 --> 0:10:03.120
<v Speaker 2>a shamed MSD. And see a guy named Brian Roberts,

0:10:03.120 --> 0:10:06.640
<v Speaker 2>he heads it. He's a disgrace. He's a weak, pathetic disgrace.

0:10:08.040 --> 0:10:10.240
<v Speaker 1>And earlier, because I was watching this live, he called

0:10:10.320 --> 0:10:16.680
<v Speaker 1>CNN is scumb CNN is scum. Unfortunate. Yeah, I don't

0:10:16.679 --> 0:10:21.520
<v Speaker 1>know if that helped anything. See unique fellow this Donald Trump.

0:10:22.000 --> 0:10:25.120
<v Speaker 1>He didn't like the reporting that fodoh may not be

0:10:25.200 --> 0:10:31.000
<v Speaker 1>as damaged as they're claiming. Okay, all right, so yeah

0:10:31.000 --> 0:10:34.160
<v Speaker 1>there's that. Well there you go. That's uh, that's the

0:10:34.240 --> 0:10:37.680
<v Speaker 1>whole ceasefire or not war in the middle least story,

0:10:37.840 --> 0:10:40.040
<v Speaker 1>and we'll be dipping in and out of that throughout

0:10:40.200 --> 0:10:45.520
<v Speaker 1>the show with probably Trump and the Prime Minister Netna

0:10:45.559 --> 0:10:50.040
<v Speaker 1>who just spoke okay, asking him not to resume, Nenya

0:10:50.080 --> 0:10:52.160
<v Speaker 1>who says they're going to stop. So we'll see what happens,

0:10:52.200 --> 0:10:55.280
<v Speaker 1>and we'll report any minute now. And we're stopping. In minutes,

0:10:55.320 --> 0:10:58.200
<v Speaker 1>we're starting to stop. We haven't started the end of

0:10:58.200 --> 0:11:01.160
<v Speaker 1>the stopping, but we've started the beginning of stopping, mister President.

0:11:01.160 --> 0:11:04.600
<v Speaker 1>We've stopped the end of the starting, is what we've done. Indeed.

0:11:04.880 --> 0:11:06.800
<v Speaker 1>But you believe there will be a ceasefire, like I do.

0:11:06.840 --> 0:11:10.200
<v Speaker 1>You think this actually will? Oh yeah, yeah, And I

0:11:10.200 --> 0:11:12.000
<v Speaker 1>don't mean like five years from now, I mean like

0:11:12.040 --> 0:11:16.240
<v Speaker 1>today or tomorrow. Certainly by tomorrow, yeah, I think so.

0:11:16.720 --> 0:11:20.200
<v Speaker 1>I think it'll stop here real soon. And then there's

0:11:20.600 --> 0:11:22.280
<v Speaker 1>plenty of other news that we can report on a

0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:24.079
<v Speaker 1>whole bunch of different fronts, and Katie's got all the

0:11:24.120 --> 0:11:25.760
<v Speaker 1>headlines on the way next we'll see what's going on

0:11:25.800 --> 0:11:31.199
<v Speaker 1>in the world. Stay tuned. We're going on vacation. We're

0:11:31.240 --> 0:11:33.520
<v Speaker 1>on vacation next week as a lot of the America

0:11:33.559 --> 0:11:35.480
<v Speaker 1>will be fourth of July, you know, laninging right and

0:11:35.600 --> 0:11:38.160
<v Speaker 1>kind of in the middle of the week and either

0:11:38.160 --> 0:11:40.120
<v Speaker 1>taking a day or so on either side, or your

0:11:40.160 --> 0:11:42.880
<v Speaker 1>company has days off or whatever. I'm taking the kids

0:11:42.920 --> 0:11:44.920
<v Speaker 1>to Florida, where it's going to be one hundred and

0:11:44.960 --> 0:11:48.600
<v Speaker 1>fifty degrees and mosquitos so thick you can't breathe so right,

0:11:48.640 --> 0:11:53.079
<v Speaker 1>But that's what keeps the other tourists away, jungle environment

0:11:53.200 --> 0:11:56.679
<v Speaker 1>there for you. Just we're just pack loin cloths. It's

0:11:56.720 --> 0:11:59.480
<v Speaker 1>all you're gonna need, high cloths and flip flops. Maybe

0:11:59.520 --> 0:12:01.160
<v Speaker 1>hiding the whole tell room the entire trip and told

0:12:01.280 --> 0:12:05.679
<v Speaker 1>time to come back. Wow, sounds great. We've got so

0:12:05.800 --> 0:12:10.760
<v Speaker 1>much to get to coming up a strong, strong defense

0:12:10.880 --> 0:12:14.400
<v Speaker 1>of the constitutionality of what Trump did, but only Congress

0:12:14.440 --> 0:12:18.160
<v Speaker 1>can declare. We'll get to the reality of it coming up.

0:12:18.200 --> 0:12:20.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm working on this headline, Katie, since you're the queen

0:12:20.800 --> 0:12:26.079
<v Speaker 1>of the headlines, Bunker bombs for Iran, f bombs for CNN,

0:12:27.080 --> 0:12:30.760
<v Speaker 1>love it, Trump on the Attack. It's probably a little long.

0:12:31.920 --> 0:12:34.480
<v Speaker 1>I think it's good. We can end. We can end

0:12:34.480 --> 0:12:38.480
<v Speaker 1>the headline segment. Now that was it that, Let's figure

0:12:38.520 --> 0:12:40.840
<v Speaker 1>out who's reporting what It's lead story with Katie Green.

0:12:40.760 --> 0:12:44.200
<v Speaker 3>Katie, starting with The New York Times, Trump lashes out

0:12:44.240 --> 0:12:48.439
<v Speaker 3>at Israel and Iran amid cease fire violations.

0:12:49.160 --> 0:12:51.280
<v Speaker 1>They don't know what did what did he say? They

0:12:51.280 --> 0:12:53.480
<v Speaker 1>don't They don't know what the f they're doing, except

0:12:53.480 --> 0:12:57.760
<v Speaker 1>he said the actual word. I think Israel knows precisely

0:12:57.840 --> 0:13:00.559
<v Speaker 1>what the f it's doing. Every time I start thinking

0:13:00.600 --> 0:13:03.720
<v Speaker 1>Trump is, you know, thinking clearly and gets it. He

0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:08.680
<v Speaker 1>says something like that just seems nuts. From boxing, we.

0:13:09.200 --> 0:13:12.920
<v Speaker 2>Basically have two countries that have been fighting so long

0:13:13.000 --> 0:13:15.760
<v Speaker 2>and so hard that they don't know what the fuck

0:13:15.800 --> 0:13:17.520
<v Speaker 2>they're doing. Do you understand.

0:13:17.040 --> 0:13:21.520
<v Speaker 1>That that's historic? That's an historic F bomb. It's the

0:13:22.320 --> 0:13:26.679
<v Speaker 1>w t F doctrine. Mm. It's like the Monroe doctrine

0:13:26.679 --> 0:13:28.880
<v Speaker 1>before it put somewhat more F.

0:13:28.880 --> 0:13:33.720
<v Speaker 3>Bomby from Box News, Pam Bondi confirms officials are on

0:13:33.880 --> 0:13:37.959
<v Speaker 3>high alert amid concerns of Iranian sleeper cells.

0:13:38.960 --> 0:13:42.959
<v Speaker 1>Are you worried about Iranian sleeper self personally? No. I

0:13:44.200 --> 0:13:48.360
<v Speaker 1>understand that there could be agents within the country hoping

0:13:48.400 --> 0:13:51.160
<v Speaker 1>to strike, But the last thing in the world I

0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:54.560
<v Speaker 1>would do, even if I were a crazy Mola is

0:13:54.640 --> 0:13:58.400
<v Speaker 1>provoked some sort of terrible, terrible a vengeance by the

0:13:58.480 --> 0:14:01.360
<v Speaker 1>United States. Right from NBC.

0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:06.080
<v Speaker 3>Supreme Court allows Trump to swiftly deport certain immigrants to

0:14:06.160 --> 0:14:07.880
<v Speaker 3>quote third countries.

0:14:09.480 --> 0:14:13.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, interesting situation being badly reported by our media as usual.

0:14:14.000 --> 0:14:17.920
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, you're pedro from l Salvador and they won't

0:14:17.920 --> 0:14:20.600
<v Speaker 1>have you back. Well, look forward to your new apartment

0:14:20.640 --> 0:14:24.120
<v Speaker 1>there in Angola or wherever. Wow. And then and then

0:14:24.240 --> 0:14:26.040
<v Speaker 1>what do you do? You just land in the country

0:14:26.080 --> 0:14:28.680
<v Speaker 1>you've never lived in. You have no maybe you don't

0:14:28.680 --> 0:14:31.960
<v Speaker 1>speak the language, you don't know anybody there, Like the

0:14:32.000 --> 0:14:34.880
<v Speaker 1>closing time at many of our the policy is you

0:14:34.920 --> 0:14:36.760
<v Speaker 1>don't have to go home, but you can't stay here.

0:14:39.080 --> 0:14:42.920
<v Speaker 3>Hey, speaking of Florida, Jack CNN Florida did it to

0:14:43.280 --> 0:14:49.840
<v Speaker 3>detain illegals in new Everglades facility, dubbed the quote Alligator Alcatraz.

0:14:49.920 --> 0:14:52.560
<v Speaker 1>Wow, I'm going to the Everglades. I'm gonna be there

0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:54.800
<v Speaker 1>for a couple of days. So, yeah, there's some you'll

0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:57.040
<v Speaker 1>see lots of illegals. It'll make me feel at home

0:14:57.120 --> 0:14:58.360
<v Speaker 1>as a California.

0:14:59.000 --> 0:15:01.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, there's a used air strip that apparently they're They

0:15:01.600 --> 0:15:05.640
<v Speaker 3>said they don't worry about security perimeter, securing the perimeter,

0:15:05.640 --> 0:15:06.960
<v Speaker 3>because there's plenty of gators for that.

0:15:07.120 --> 0:15:10.320
<v Speaker 1>There you go, Ooh, cater Guards, cater Guards.

0:15:10.360 --> 0:15:14.200
<v Speaker 3>From the Wall Street Journal, Powell reaffirms weight and see

0:15:14.240 --> 0:15:17.400
<v Speaker 3>posture on rate cuts, citing a solid economy.

0:15:17.600 --> 0:15:19.960
<v Speaker 1>There you go. So this good news is bad news,

0:15:20.040 --> 0:15:21.640
<v Speaker 1>or the bad news is good news or something.

0:15:23.840 --> 0:15:28.400
<v Speaker 3>From the Washington Post, prosecutors are expected to rest their

0:15:28.520 --> 0:15:30.840
<v Speaker 3>case today against Sean Combs.

0:15:33.440 --> 0:15:36.680
<v Speaker 1>Then Nitty's defense takes up the uh, takes the ball

0:15:36.720 --> 0:15:38.760
<v Speaker 1>and runs with it. It could get damned interesting, then,

0:15:38.800 --> 0:15:39.160
<v Speaker 1>I think.

0:15:40.760 --> 0:15:45.400
<v Speaker 3>From the New York Post, Hunter Biden sued over fifty

0:15:45.480 --> 0:15:50.600
<v Speaker 3>thousand dollars in unpaid legal bills, including from his Delaware

0:15:50.600 --> 0:15:51.240
<v Speaker 3>gun case.

0:15:51.760 --> 0:15:54.200
<v Speaker 1>He needs to meet another weirdo. What a party who's

0:15:54.200 --> 0:15:56.760
<v Speaker 1>willing to pay all his bills for some reason? Not

0:15:56.840 --> 0:15:58.880
<v Speaker 1>with the old man out of power, forget it. Yeah,

0:15:58.920 --> 0:16:02.080
<v Speaker 1>the sugar daddy's are no longer interested. What do you

0:16:02.120 --> 0:16:04.960
<v Speaker 1>mean people aren't interested in my art anymore? What gives

0:16:05.280 --> 0:16:07.800
<v Speaker 1>I was getting half a million bucks apiece for these

0:16:07.920 --> 0:16:10.360
<v Speaker 1>what do you mean thirty five dollars? People told me

0:16:10.400 --> 0:16:14.560
<v Speaker 1>I was a brilliant painter. And finally frown.

0:16:14.440 --> 0:16:19.840
<v Speaker 3>The Babylon v Obama distraught as Trump bomb's cool nuke

0:16:19.920 --> 0:16:21.200
<v Speaker 3>factory that he paid for.

0:16:21.440 --> 0:16:32.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh oh wow, auci that one landed. Yeah, I was

0:16:32.240 --> 0:16:35.880
<v Speaker 1>just reading an update the Trump was on the phone

0:16:35.920 --> 0:16:42.200
<v Speaker 1>with Netanyahu. Is that right? Yes? Correct? Yeah, and uh

0:16:42.240 --> 0:16:44.160
<v Speaker 1>and uh what do you say to him? I was

0:16:44.200 --> 0:16:46.200
<v Speaker 1>just talking about it. It's flitted out of my head. Yes,

0:16:46.240 --> 0:16:48.880
<v Speaker 1>and it was big news. Oh. He told Netanyahu to

0:16:48.960 --> 0:16:51.640
<v Speaker 1>bring back military aircraft that were on the verge of

0:16:51.680 --> 0:16:55.400
<v Speaker 1>attacking Iran, essentially turn around the planes. Getting a nuke

0:16:55.520 --> 0:16:57.760
<v Speaker 1>is the last thing on Iran's mind right now. So

0:16:57.800 --> 0:16:59.800
<v Speaker 1>Netanyahu was saying, well, I've already got planes in the air,

0:16:59.880 --> 0:17:02.160
<v Speaker 1>so they'll have to fulfill their mission. And Trump said, no,

0:17:02.320 --> 0:17:08.280
<v Speaker 1>turn them around. That's the way it seems, yes, Incording

0:17:08.280 --> 0:17:10.639
<v Speaker 1>to reporters on Air Force One, well, nt Yahu's going

0:17:10.680 --> 0:17:12.840
<v Speaker 1>to try to squeeze as many bombings as he can

0:17:12.960 --> 0:17:17.320
<v Speaker 1>out of the final moments before the ceasefire is cease fire. Certainly,

0:17:17.480 --> 0:17:19.200
<v Speaker 1>we'll be keeping our eye on this throughout the show.

0:17:19.440 --> 0:17:22.760
<v Speaker 1>Pretty interesting stuff, Armstrong and Getty.

0:17:23.480 --> 0:17:26.960
<v Speaker 4>Near Governor Kathy Hocho yesterday declared a state of emergency

0:17:27.119 --> 0:17:29.640
<v Speaker 4>amid a heat wave that's expected to break one hundred

0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:32.240
<v Speaker 4>and twenty five year old records, which means it's time

0:17:32.280 --> 0:17:35.879
<v Speaker 4>for my favorite hobby, going down to Times Square to

0:17:36.000 --> 0:17:37.639
<v Speaker 4>watch the Elmo's face.

0:17:43.920 --> 0:17:49.720
<v Speaker 1>Down to watch the Elmo's face. Wow, that's a very

0:17:49.840 --> 0:17:54.119
<v Speaker 1>letterman like joke. Um uh So, here's one of the

0:17:54.200 --> 0:17:58.520
<v Speaker 1>exciting things today that I'm watching the New York mayoral race.

0:17:58.520 --> 0:18:02.080
<v Speaker 1>It's the Democratic primary, but that's basically the race because

0:18:02.160 --> 0:18:08.720
<v Speaker 1>no Republicans going to win, and unbelievable turnout early voting,

0:18:09.119 --> 0:18:13.800
<v Speaker 1>crazy off the charts high, mostly young people. Already huge turnout,

0:18:13.960 --> 0:18:17.399
<v Speaker 1>mostly young people. I think the freaking he calls himself

0:18:17.400 --> 0:18:21.560
<v Speaker 1>a democratic socialist, he's a socialist communist. He's downplaying as socialist,

0:18:21.720 --> 0:18:25.160
<v Speaker 1>but I think that guy's gonna win. Anti Semitic pro

0:18:25.320 --> 0:18:28.720
<v Speaker 1>hamas communist. Yeah, I am torn. I want to talk

0:18:28.760 --> 0:18:31.399
<v Speaker 1>more about that. Part of me thinks I don't live

0:18:31.400 --> 0:18:33.720
<v Speaker 1>in New York, so it will be found it happen. Well,

0:18:33.760 --> 0:18:36.639
<v Speaker 1>not only that, but what's the most effective way to

0:18:36.720 --> 0:18:40.840
<v Speaker 1>discredit progressive policies enact them. You've got to hit bottom

0:18:40.880 --> 0:18:44.119
<v Speaker 1>like Portland did, like Seattle did, like Chicago is in

0:18:44.160 --> 0:18:48.200
<v Speaker 1>the process, like San Francisco did. Oh my god, please, yeah, sorry,

0:18:48.560 --> 0:18:51.639
<v Speaker 1>how could I leave off the city by the bay Yea?

0:18:53.119 --> 0:18:56.400
<v Speaker 1>So a couple of interesting pieces of news in terms

0:18:56.400 --> 0:18:59.680
<v Speaker 1>of the Israel Iran US conflict. First of all, in

0:19:00.200 --> 0:19:03.000
<v Speaker 1>exclusive the Washington Post is reporting that in the hours

0:19:03.040 --> 0:19:06.959
<v Speaker 1>after Israel launched its first devastating wave of strikes against

0:19:06.960 --> 0:19:09.080
<v Speaker 1>Iran exactly a week ago, or it's just over a

0:19:09.119 --> 0:19:12.600
<v Speaker 1>week ago, killing top military leaders and nuclear scientists, you

0:19:12.680 --> 0:19:16.760
<v Speaker 1>remember that one Israeli intelligence operatives launched a covert campaign

0:19:17.040 --> 0:19:21.280
<v Speaker 1>to intimidate senior officials, apparently trying to divide and destabilize

0:19:21.280 --> 0:19:25.080
<v Speaker 1>the theocratic regime. So people who work for Israel's security

0:19:25.119 --> 0:19:29.600
<v Speaker 1>services who speak Persian, Iran's primary language, called senior Iranian

0:19:29.640 --> 0:19:32.400
<v Speaker 1>officials on their cell phones and warned them that they

0:19:32.600 --> 0:19:36.479
<v Speaker 1>and their wives and children would die unless they ceased

0:19:36.520 --> 0:19:40.240
<v Speaker 1>supporting the Ayahtola and got the hell out of dodge.

0:19:42.200 --> 0:19:45.639
<v Speaker 1>And they didn't quote I can will I don't know.

0:19:45.920 --> 0:19:48.720
<v Speaker 1>Some may have. Do you think they did quote I

0:19:48.720 --> 0:19:51.040
<v Speaker 1>can advise you now you have twelve hours to escape

0:19:51.040 --> 0:19:53.160
<v Speaker 1>with your wife and childs. Otherwise you're on our list

0:19:53.280 --> 0:19:56.960
<v Speaker 1>right now. An Israeli intelligence operative told the senior Iranian

0:19:57.040 --> 0:20:02.840
<v Speaker 1>general close to the country's rulers. The operative then suggested

0:20:02.840 --> 0:20:04.919
<v Speaker 1>that Israel could train weapons on the general and his

0:20:04.920 --> 0:20:07.840
<v Speaker 1>family at any moment. Quote, we're closer to you than

0:20:07.880 --> 0:20:11.040
<v Speaker 1>your own neck vein. Put this in your head. May

0:20:11.080 --> 0:20:18.760
<v Speaker 1>God protect you. Yikes. The general, a member of Iran's

0:20:18.760 --> 0:20:21.800
<v Speaker 1>powerful Islamic Revolutionary Guard Court, was told he had twelve

0:20:21.840 --> 0:20:25.520
<v Speaker 1>hours to make a video disassociating himself from the Iranian government.

0:20:25.880 --> 0:20:28.720
<v Speaker 1>How should I send it to you, the General replies,

0:20:29.119 --> 0:20:32.399
<v Speaker 1>I'll send you a telegram ID the operative says, send it.

0:20:33.040 --> 0:20:37.320
<v Speaker 1>Unclear whether it was made or sent or anything like that. Boy,

0:20:37.359 --> 0:20:39.280
<v Speaker 1>all these guys, we got a bomb pointed at your

0:20:39.320 --> 0:20:43.040
<v Speaker 1>head right now. You got a cute little kid, don't you. Yeah, yeah, okay,

0:20:43.080 --> 0:20:45.000
<v Speaker 1>do the right thing, see ya am I right to see.

0:20:45.080 --> 0:20:47.600
<v Speaker 1>Ayatola has not been seen in quite a while, a

0:20:47.680 --> 0:20:50.520
<v Speaker 1>couple of weeks from what I understand. Yeah, so he

0:20:50.520 --> 0:20:54.240
<v Speaker 1>could be gone. I'd read one report that he you mean,

0:20:54.320 --> 0:20:58.680
<v Speaker 1>like he ran for his life gone. Surely that news

0:20:58.680 --> 0:21:02.000
<v Speaker 1>would break, right, I mean, somebody would try to take

0:21:02.040 --> 0:21:06.639
<v Speaker 1>over the country or yeah, you would think. Yeah, I

0:21:06.720 --> 0:21:09.040
<v Speaker 1>just assume he's in hiding. I mean, he's older than

0:21:09.119 --> 0:21:12.400
<v Speaker 1>Joe Biden. And I'd seen one report where they suggested

0:21:12.520 --> 0:21:16.320
<v Speaker 1>that he was acting and speaking erratically. People weren't sure

0:21:16.320 --> 0:21:19.159
<v Speaker 1>if he had his marbles, but don't know. So on

0:21:19.200 --> 0:21:25.600
<v Speaker 1>a completely different topic, John Yu who was a Pentagon

0:21:25.680 --> 0:21:29.879
<v Speaker 1>lawyer in the Bush administration, among other names, senior fellow

0:21:29.920 --> 0:21:33.440
<v Speaker 1>at various places, a professor law UC Burke. He became

0:21:33.520 --> 0:21:38.280
<v Speaker 1>a big deal around the torture stuff. I think, yes,

0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:43.280
<v Speaker 1>that is correct. Not exactly a shining place on his

0:21:43.400 --> 0:21:47.240
<v Speaker 1>resume in my opinion, but he is a highly respected

0:21:47.240 --> 0:21:52.400
<v Speaker 1>constitutional scholar. But anyway he's talking about, well, he says

0:21:52.400 --> 0:21:56.480
<v Speaker 1>Trump's strike on Iran was constitutional. The President acted to

0:21:56.520 --> 0:21:59.439
<v Speaker 1>protect the nation security within the powers granted to his

0:21:59.480 --> 0:22:03.960
<v Speaker 1>office by the Constitution. And he goes into some of

0:22:04.000 --> 0:22:08.400
<v Speaker 1>the catterwauling about it. Bernie Sanders AOC. I just saw

0:22:08.440 --> 0:22:13.600
<v Speaker 1>her on cable news talking about impeachment. Roe Conna, a

0:22:13.800 --> 0:22:16.800
<v Speaker 1>Democratic California who's trying to raise his profile. He has

0:22:16.840 --> 0:22:22.159
<v Speaker 1>a sniff of the Oval office. He immediately voted. He

0:22:22.240 --> 0:22:25.600
<v Speaker 1>demanded the Congress vote on his newly introduced War Powers

0:22:25.640 --> 0:22:28.920
<v Speaker 1>Resolution quote to prevent America from being dragged into another

0:22:29.040 --> 0:22:31.679
<v Speaker 1>endless Middle East war, an endless war that may have

0:22:31.760 --> 0:22:35.679
<v Speaker 1>ended an hour ago, right after like eight hours of

0:22:35.680 --> 0:22:40.119
<v Speaker 1>our involvement, well, flight time thirty seven hours anyway, And

0:22:40.160 --> 0:22:44.400
<v Speaker 1>then on the isolationist right you got Thomas Massey griping

0:22:44.440 --> 0:22:51.760
<v Speaker 1>about it, Warren Davidson of Ohio, Marjorie Taylor Green came hardcore.

0:22:52.400 --> 0:22:54.520
<v Speaker 1>But then you and this is the part I really

0:22:54.560 --> 0:22:59.119
<v Speaker 1>found interesting. He gets into some of the Federalist papers

0:22:59.160 --> 0:23:04.040
<v Speaker 1>in which Lexander Hamilton explained Alexander Hamilton, it gives the

0:23:04.080 --> 0:23:07.560
<v Speaker 1>president the primary constitutional duty of quote, protecting the community

0:23:07.560 --> 0:23:11.359
<v Speaker 1>against foreign attacks. And the founders vested these powers and

0:23:11.400 --> 0:23:13.960
<v Speaker 1>the president precisely because only a single man could act

0:23:14.080 --> 0:23:17.399
<v Speaker 1>quote with sufficient energy in the executive to respond to

0:23:17.440 --> 0:23:22.280
<v Speaker 1>the challenges of foreign national and national security. Decision activity, secrecy,

0:23:22.400 --> 0:23:26.720
<v Speaker 1>and dispatch meaning speed will generally characterize the proceedings of

0:23:26.840 --> 0:23:32.840
<v Speaker 1>one man, Hamilton wrote in the Federal seventy four. Hamilton

0:23:32.920 --> 0:23:35.200
<v Speaker 1>was even more explicit of all the cares or concerns

0:23:35.200 --> 0:23:37.880
<v Speaker 1>of the government, the direction of war most peculiarly demands

0:23:37.880 --> 0:23:40.720
<v Speaker 1>those qualities which distinguished the exercise of power by a

0:23:40.800 --> 0:23:46.439
<v Speaker 1>single hand. Blah blah blah. Now how that relates to

0:23:46.520 --> 0:23:52.399
<v Speaker 1>the declaration of war, I don't know because, as you

0:23:52.440 --> 0:23:56.840
<v Speaker 1>were discussing yesterday, Jack, we have congresses declared war five

0:23:57.119 --> 0:24:00.760
<v Speaker 1>times in our nation's history. Presidents have come mitd military

0:24:00.800 --> 0:24:05.760
<v Speaker 1>forces to combat abroad one hundred and thirty plus times.

0:24:07.800 --> 0:24:09.920
<v Speaker 1>And here's the historical part I found extra ange. So

0:24:10.000 --> 0:24:13.000
<v Speaker 1>we didn't declare war in Vietnam, right or Korea? It

0:24:13.080 --> 0:24:17.960
<v Speaker 1>was a police action. Yes, So, Temilton, two giant wars

0:24:18.080 --> 0:24:21.760
<v Speaker 1>with many Americans dead, and we have huge memorials to

0:24:21.800 --> 0:24:24.800
<v Speaker 1>them in Washington, d C. Were not declared wars by Congress,

0:24:25.000 --> 0:24:27.960
<v Speaker 1>and we call them wars. Well, they look a lot

0:24:28.000 --> 0:24:29.800
<v Speaker 1>like a war with the whole guns and dying thing.

0:24:30.440 --> 0:24:33.800
<v Speaker 1>All right, Hamilton's defensive executive power and wars held sway

0:24:33.840 --> 0:24:37.800
<v Speaker 1>for more than two centuries, and it has had little

0:24:37.960 --> 0:24:41.560
<v Speaker 1>Uh well, what does he say? With little variation. The

0:24:41.600 --> 0:24:44.480
<v Speaker 1>president takes the lead and deciding when to initiate armed conflict,

0:24:44.760 --> 0:24:47.280
<v Speaker 1>with Congress exercising a check through its sole power of

0:24:47.280 --> 0:24:50.480
<v Speaker 1>the purse. So here's the history. The practiced extends at

0:24:50.560 --> 0:24:53.040
<v Speaker 1>least as far back in the Korean War. In cases

0:24:53.040 --> 0:24:55.159
<v Speaker 1>of smaller conflicts, the practice can be traced to the

0:24:55.280 --> 0:24:59.560
<v Speaker 1>very first administrations. George Washington conducted the Indian Wars without

0:24:59.600 --> 0:25:03.600
<v Speaker 1>a declar Thomas Jefferson fought the Barbary pirates on his

0:25:03.680 --> 0:25:07.639
<v Speaker 1>own authority. That's a pretty good parallel to what Trump

0:25:07.680 --> 0:25:10.560
<v Speaker 1>is doing. Abraham Lincoln raised an army and navy and

0:25:10.600 --> 0:25:13.720
<v Speaker 1>launched them against the South without calling Congress into session.

0:25:14.640 --> 0:25:17.840
<v Speaker 1>Fdr ordered escorts for British convoys aid to the Allies

0:25:17.920 --> 0:25:22.760
<v Speaker 1>attacks on German submarines in the face of Congress's neutrality acts.

0:25:22.800 --> 0:25:26.240
<v Speaker 1>In the wake of the Vietnam War, political leaders adopted

0:25:26.240 --> 0:25:30.440
<v Speaker 1>a radical academic theory that only Congress could authorize any

0:25:30.640 --> 0:25:34.840
<v Speaker 1>sort of war, and they enacted the War Powers Resolution

0:25:34.920 --> 0:25:37.720
<v Speaker 1>over the veto of a weekened Nixon. It required the

0:25:37.760 --> 0:25:41.040
<v Speaker 1>president to receive Congressional approval for any use of military

0:25:41.040 --> 0:25:43.600
<v Speaker 1>force abroad, and if they do not get it, to

0:25:43.680 --> 0:25:48.520
<v Speaker 1>pull troops out after sixty days. And Ted's Kennedy and

0:25:48.600 --> 0:25:51.840
<v Speaker 1>Jose Biden claimed that the Constitution's War Powers Clause forbade

0:25:52.040 --> 0:25:56.840
<v Speaker 1>Republican presidents from waging war without Congressional permission. And then

0:25:56.880 --> 0:25:59.679
<v Speaker 1>they go through the history of plenty of democratic presidents

0:25:59.720 --> 0:26:02.119
<v Speaker 1>doing them that very thing, and nobody said a word

0:26:04.680 --> 0:26:08.080
<v Speaker 1>that presidents have refused to accept the legality of the

0:26:08.119 --> 0:26:11.760
<v Speaker 1>War Powers Resolution of nineteen seventy three, and neither Congress

0:26:11.760 --> 0:26:16.240
<v Speaker 1>nor other courts have shown any interest in enforcing it. Ford, Carti, Carter,

0:26:16.440 --> 0:26:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Reagan all engaged in several military actions without Congressional assent,

0:26:22.080 --> 0:26:29.040
<v Speaker 1>and you got hw and then w Clinton interventions in Somalia, Haiti, Bosnia,

0:26:29.119 --> 0:26:31.920
<v Speaker 1>the Middle East, most significantly Kozo votes, part none of

0:26:31.960 --> 0:26:34.440
<v Speaker 1>which were authorized by Congress. Part of it, a lot

0:26:34.480 --> 0:26:38.199
<v Speaker 1>of it, maybe practically all of it is because the

0:26:38.960 --> 0:26:43.080
<v Speaker 1>pante wasted, weak willed. I shouldn't say panny wasted, because

0:26:43.119 --> 0:26:47.200
<v Speaker 1>that that that's implying what women wear pandies and women

0:26:47.200 --> 0:26:50.280
<v Speaker 1>are weak. And I shouldn't because that's not true when

0:26:50.280 --> 0:26:52.840
<v Speaker 1>it comes to like taking votes or whatnot. So we

0:26:53.000 --> 0:26:55.080
<v Speaker 1>learned a couple of weeks ago that it was actually

0:26:55.160 --> 0:26:59.560
<v Speaker 1>a reference to a small child's war. Okay, then I'll

0:26:59.560 --> 0:27:01.520
<v Speaker 1>go back to anyways. No, how about lily livered? Is

0:27:01.560 --> 0:27:05.320
<v Speaker 1>that unaffair to people with who drink too much sirosa

0:27:05.359 --> 0:27:08.399
<v Speaker 1>white purple livers? No? I don't know. Anyway, it's because

0:27:08.400 --> 0:27:11.600
<v Speaker 1>the weak, weak, cowardly congress people don't want to have

0:27:11.800 --> 0:27:14.800
<v Speaker 1>their name attached to a vote for or against any wars.

0:27:15.240 --> 0:27:17.560
<v Speaker 1>Because they've seen how it can get used against you

0:27:19.040 --> 0:27:21.400
<v Speaker 1>in future elections if you're wrong on the wrong side

0:27:21.400 --> 0:27:25.919
<v Speaker 1>of it. I mean, how many politicians, including Ted Cruz

0:27:26.000 --> 0:27:28.800
<v Speaker 1>just the other day with Tucker Carlson, still have to

0:27:28.840 --> 0:27:32.439
<v Speaker 1>talk about their vote on a rack, whether they voted

0:27:32.440 --> 0:27:35.560
<v Speaker 1>for it or against it, and it gets drug out

0:27:35.560 --> 0:27:37.000
<v Speaker 1>and held up. So they don't want to have to.

0:27:37.080 --> 0:27:38.800
<v Speaker 1>They don't want their name attached to any votes, which

0:27:38.840 --> 0:27:42.360
<v Speaker 1>is incredibly weak. But by doing that, they just let

0:27:42.400 --> 0:27:44.520
<v Speaker 1>the commander in chief do whatever the hell they want.

0:27:44.560 --> 0:27:46.119
<v Speaker 1>Then they'll take all the credit of the blame. But

0:27:46.160 --> 0:27:48.119
<v Speaker 1>then at least me and Congress I don't have to

0:27:48.920 --> 0:27:52.520
<v Speaker 1>risk my vote. It's time for a John Kennedy like

0:27:52.600 --> 0:27:55.520
<v Speaker 1>figure to not write a book because Kennedy didn't write

0:27:55.520 --> 0:27:58.840
<v Speaker 1>Profiles and courage not write a book entitled Profiles in

0:27:58.920 --> 0:28:04.679
<v Speaker 1>Cowardice and really, hammen, that'd be great chicken beashes of

0:28:04.920 --> 0:28:08.000
<v Speaker 1>Congress for their their unwillingness to take a stand on

0:28:08.160 --> 0:28:15.000
<v Speaker 1>anything with their child's panties around their waist, Yes are

0:28:15.080 --> 0:28:19.480
<v Speaker 1>lily colored. I would like, you know, I'd like to

0:28:19.520 --> 0:28:23.399
<v Speaker 1>go into even more detail about the War Powers Resolution

0:28:23.560 --> 0:28:27.560
<v Speaker 1>in nineteen seventy three, but again I think the key

0:28:27.640 --> 0:28:33.560
<v Speaker 1>sentence is that all every single president of both parties

0:28:34.440 --> 0:28:38.120
<v Speaker 1>has said yeah, that's nice, and neither Congress nor the

0:28:38.200 --> 0:28:41.200
<v Speaker 1>courts have decided to do anything about it. So what

0:28:41.240 --> 0:28:44.080
<v Speaker 1>are we talking about? Uh, well, I can tell you

0:28:44.120 --> 0:28:46.160
<v Speaker 1>a couple of things. We're talking about. We're talking about

0:28:46.160 --> 0:28:50.720
<v Speaker 1>fundraising and your constituents seeing that you're talking impeachment against

0:28:50.720 --> 0:28:52.920
<v Speaker 1>Trump and you send them a check. They ask for

0:28:52.960 --> 0:28:54.680
<v Speaker 1>a check and you send it to them. So that's

0:28:54.720 --> 0:28:58.320
<v Speaker 1>part of it. Truth bomb run for your lives. Jack

0:28:58.520 --> 0:29:02.560
<v Speaker 1>is dropping mave ordnance truth bombs. There should be a ceasefire.

0:29:02.960 --> 0:29:06.520
<v Speaker 1>I just saw John fo Crap penetrating truth bombs. I

0:29:06.600 --> 0:29:10.160
<v Speaker 1>just saw John Fetterman on Fox saying impeachment is going nowhere.

0:29:10.200 --> 0:29:13.160
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't need to go anywhere. They just want to

0:29:13.160 --> 0:29:16.240
<v Speaker 1>go through the process and get all the credit for trying,

0:29:17.000 --> 0:29:19.880
<v Speaker 1>because we live at a new age of performative politics.

0:29:20.320 --> 0:29:24.040
<v Speaker 1>You ask your pollster, if I announce an impeachment resolution,

0:29:24.160 --> 0:29:26.640
<v Speaker 1>how many sad sacks will kick me twenty five bucks

0:29:26.640 --> 0:29:29.480
<v Speaker 1>through the internet. Well, Sarah, we would believe that'll be

0:29:29.640 --> 0:29:33.920
<v Speaker 1>efully two percent of your district or fifteen hundred people. Really, Okay, great,

0:29:34.160 --> 0:29:38.920
<v Speaker 1>I'll write it up this afternoon, right exactly. I'm becoming

0:29:39.080 --> 0:29:43.160
<v Speaker 1>enraged about a local skateboard park story that I've seen

0:29:43.200 --> 0:29:45.560
<v Speaker 1>in the news today that I think is worth sharing

0:29:45.560 --> 0:29:50.120
<v Speaker 1>with everybody because it's emblematic of a certain mindset. Love it.

0:29:50.600 --> 0:29:52.239
<v Speaker 1>We've got mail Bag on the Way was the other

0:29:52.280 --> 0:29:53.680
<v Speaker 1>story that I want to get to. I teased it

0:29:53.680 --> 0:29:55.520
<v Speaker 1>a little bigger right at the beginning. Oh yeah, the

0:29:55.520 --> 0:29:57.200
<v Speaker 1>New York may oral race. If you don't know this

0:29:57.320 --> 0:30:00.240
<v Speaker 1>communist who's going to end up being the mayor of

0:30:00.280 --> 0:30:02.720
<v Speaker 1>New York, it's worth taking a look at him. What

0:30:02.880 --> 0:30:05.000
<v Speaker 1>a story, What a thing to watch, As Joe says,

0:30:05.040 --> 0:30:06.520
<v Speaker 1>it's going to be good for the rest of the

0:30:06.520 --> 0:30:08.760
<v Speaker 1>country to watch a communist run the biggest city in

0:30:08.800 --> 0:30:11.360
<v Speaker 1>the country and get all the news attention as it

0:30:11.440 --> 0:30:13.600
<v Speaker 1>fails and fails and fails, and people get angry and

0:30:13.720 --> 0:30:17.920
<v Speaker 1>angry and angrier. New York has got to stop electing

0:30:18.040 --> 0:30:21.760
<v Speaker 1>Moron's mayor or they will suffer for it. And I

0:30:21.760 --> 0:30:25.000
<v Speaker 1>think they're about to this guy, is he is? Well,

0:30:25.040 --> 0:30:29.440
<v Speaker 1>we'll explain that later. Mail Bag on the Way next.

0:30:31.560 --> 0:30:36.920
<v Speaker 1>I am so agitated. I get so agitated by do gooders.

0:30:38.200 --> 0:30:41.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh they make me so angry. I can barely and

0:30:41.240 --> 0:30:46.080
<v Speaker 1>I've been away my whole life. The zero tolerance for

0:30:46.160 --> 0:30:51.200
<v Speaker 1>everyone's crowd to try to make the world safe and perfect.

0:30:51.680 --> 0:30:57.760
<v Speaker 1>That makes the world unfun and unexciting and unadventurous, the

0:30:57.800 --> 0:31:01.240
<v Speaker 1>safety of cest they make me insane, me so crazy,

0:31:01.240 --> 0:31:03.960
<v Speaker 1>And I'm so agitated about this local skate park situation

0:31:04.280 --> 0:31:07.120
<v Speaker 1>that I've seen play out across the country. Actually we'll

0:31:07.120 --> 0:31:09.880
<v Speaker 1>talk about that later in the show. Here's your freedom

0:31:09.880 --> 0:31:12.280
<v Speaker 1>living quote of today from a gentleman who celebrated his

0:31:12.360 --> 0:31:16.200
<v Speaker 1>seventy seventh birthday yesterday. And he should be a hero

0:31:16.480 --> 0:31:20.840
<v Speaker 1>to young children, particularly black children, all across America. That's

0:31:20.880 --> 0:31:25.000
<v Speaker 1>Clarence Thomas. But he's been so denigrated in bad mouthed

0:31:25.000 --> 0:31:28.120
<v Speaker 1>by the liberal media. He's not, but he was talking.

0:31:28.640 --> 0:31:30.280
<v Speaker 1>He gave a speech not too long ago about the

0:31:30.320 --> 0:31:32.719
<v Speaker 1>importance of standing up for truth, even if you're the

0:31:32.720 --> 0:31:35.360
<v Speaker 1>only one doing so. And here's the quote. You can

0:31:35.400 --> 0:31:37.320
<v Speaker 1>be in the middle of a hurricane, or you can

0:31:37.360 --> 0:31:40.280
<v Speaker 1>be on a calm day. North is still North. You

0:31:40.280 --> 0:31:43.360
<v Speaker 1>could be in a thunderstorm. North is still North. People

0:31:43.400 --> 0:31:46.080
<v Speaker 1>can yell at you. North is still North. It doesn't

0:31:46.160 --> 0:31:49.280
<v Speaker 1>change fundamental things. And in this business right is still

0:31:49.320 --> 0:31:52.920
<v Speaker 1>right even if you stand by yourself. Yeah different, different

0:31:53.000 --> 0:31:55.200
<v Speaker 1>version of two plus two equals four. No matter what,

0:31:55.240 --> 0:31:59.400
<v Speaker 1>anybody else is right. Exactly, Well said Clarence, and happy birthday, Sir.

0:32:01.640 --> 0:32:03.400
<v Speaker 1>I got a couple more later in the week from

0:32:03.400 --> 0:32:06.160
<v Speaker 1>Clarence Thomas. Trump's a note mail bag at Armstrong in

0:32:06.240 --> 0:32:11.280
<v Speaker 1>getty dot com. Dirk's the German Rights It was a

0:32:11.320 --> 0:32:14.360
<v Speaker 1>mostly peaceful bombing. See. Iran is a nation of over

0:32:14.400 --> 0:32:17.600
<v Speaker 1>six hundred thousand square miles. The US bomb three small

0:32:17.680 --> 0:32:21.480
<v Speaker 1>nuclear sites to protest Iran's nuclear ambitions. It was clearly

0:32:21.520 --> 0:32:26.440
<v Speaker 1>a mostly peaceful protest. That's fantastic, Well done, Dirk. How

0:32:26.440 --> 0:32:29.240
<v Speaker 1>come nobody's commenting on the rest of Iran the vast

0:32:29.360 --> 0:32:32.240
<v Speaker 1>ninety nine percent of Iran that was untouched by bombs.

0:32:32.640 --> 0:32:37.400
<v Speaker 1>Iran's a very big country. It was just downtown Nukeville

0:32:37.400 --> 0:32:41.160
<v Speaker 1>that had the problems. Well play. Dirk uh Don writes.

0:32:42.320 --> 0:32:45.720
<v Speaker 1>If President Trump Wantseranian women's support of regime change, could

0:32:45.840 --> 0:32:48.680
<v Speaker 1>she should offer swapping their burkes and other oppressive head

0:32:48.680 --> 0:32:53.240
<v Speaker 1>coverings for red make Around Great again ball caps. Wow,

0:32:53.400 --> 0:32:56.040
<v Speaker 1>just ship cases of those over to Iran. Yeah, my

0:32:56.080 --> 0:33:00.080
<v Speaker 1>hair's covered with this truvy redhead. I just got that

0:33:00.160 --> 0:33:02.200
<v Speaker 1>secret police. Of course, they'd probably get the hell beat

0:33:02.200 --> 0:33:04.360
<v Speaker 1>out of them for that, and then you'd be tortured

0:33:04.400 --> 0:33:08.480
<v Speaker 1>and then executed. Yeah, let's see why I am not

0:33:08.600 --> 0:33:12.560
<v Speaker 1>stressed out by Steve and Everett Washington. Seems to me

0:33:12.600 --> 0:33:15.000
<v Speaker 1>that two very important metrics should be considered whether or

0:33:15.040 --> 0:33:17.520
<v Speaker 1>not we're at peace with the regional conflicts in the

0:33:17.560 --> 0:33:21.520
<v Speaker 1>Middle East. One did oil prices increase or decrease? It

0:33:21.680 --> 0:33:25.040
<v Speaker 1>decreased significantly more than ten bucks in barrel. Two did

0:33:25.040 --> 0:33:27.360
<v Speaker 1>the Dow Jones increase or don't look at the Dow?

0:33:27.400 --> 0:33:29.560
<v Speaker 1>Look at the S and P five hundred? Did the

0:33:29.600 --> 0:33:32.320
<v Speaker 1>S and P increase or decrease? It increased the better

0:33:32.360 --> 0:33:34.720
<v Speaker 1>part of one percent. I'm not one to engage in

0:33:34.760 --> 0:33:37.360
<v Speaker 1>industrial espionage, but I trust the fact that Wall Street

0:33:37.400 --> 0:33:39.920
<v Speaker 1>has those resources. If the markets seem to think things

0:33:39.960 --> 0:33:42.120
<v Speaker 1>have calmed down, I'm inclined to agree with them. Yeah.

0:33:42.200 --> 0:33:45.600
<v Speaker 1>Up again today on the ceasepire talks, although might have

0:33:45.680 --> 0:33:47.880
<v Speaker 1>more to do with the FED chair and what he

0:33:47.920 --> 0:33:50.960
<v Speaker 1>said about interest rates. I was just reading about how

0:33:51.040 --> 0:33:56.920
<v Speaker 1>uncertainty affects hiring and investment in business, and I find

0:33:56.920 --> 0:34:02.600
<v Speaker 1>myself wondering whether at some point we become just more

0:34:02.640 --> 0:34:06.880
<v Speaker 1>comfortable with a higher level of volatility uncertainty as a culture,

0:34:07.160 --> 0:34:08.759
<v Speaker 1>get an economy. We better get used to it or

0:34:08.760 --> 0:34:14.480
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna go crazy. Yeah, Paollo with an interesting topic.

0:34:14.560 --> 0:34:16.279
<v Speaker 1>It looks like Iran has at least a fly in

0:34:16.320 --> 0:34:19.719
<v Speaker 1>the ointment of its nuclear ambitions. It's probably only a

0:34:19.719 --> 0:34:22.480
<v Speaker 1>bump in the road for them. But it's not just

0:34:22.520 --> 0:34:24.520
<v Speaker 1>Iran and nukes. We have to worry about the development

0:34:24.520 --> 0:34:28.040
<v Speaker 1>of technology and learning generally snowballing, and eventually just about

0:34:28.040 --> 0:34:30.960
<v Speaker 1>everybody will have the capacity to do great harm. May

0:34:31.000 --> 0:34:33.440
<v Speaker 1>take a while, I hope, very long while, but it's inevitable.

0:34:33.760 --> 0:34:36.000
<v Speaker 1>How can we avoid it except by our destruction or

0:34:36.000 --> 0:34:38.759
<v Speaker 1>some sort of great reset that sets us back centuries.

0:34:39.200 --> 0:34:40.800
<v Speaker 1>We'll have to hope that we get a lot wiser

0:34:40.880 --> 0:34:43.040
<v Speaker 1>before our knowledge progresses to the point where the power

0:34:43.080 --> 0:34:47.399
<v Speaker 1>to destroy ourselves is ubiquitous and available to just about everyone. Yeah,

0:34:47.400 --> 0:34:52.879
<v Speaker 1>that's true. Let's see JT and Livermore makes the point

0:34:52.920 --> 0:34:56.600
<v Speaker 1>that none of the former presidents have come out and said,

0:34:56.719 --> 0:35:01.440
<v Speaker 1>nice job, Donald j getting, you know, taking the nuclear

0:35:02.160 --> 0:35:06.120
<v Speaker 1>capabilities away from Iraq. That's a decent point considering I

0:35:06.160 --> 0:35:14.120
<v Speaker 1>saw a montage of Clinton, Obama, Biden all saying Iran

0:35:14.160 --> 0:35:18.120
<v Speaker 1>will never get a nuclear weapon right and doing very

0:35:18.200 --> 0:35:20.239
<v Speaker 1>little about and doing very little about it in some

0:35:20.280 --> 0:35:22.680
<v Speaker 1>cases helping them along. If you miss a segment an hour,

0:35:22.719 --> 0:35:24.840
