Mayor Bloomberg is in the 3 00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:23,160 Speaker 1: mix running for president. Joe Biden talks about running mates. 4 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:25,680 Speaker 1: Whatever happened to a low level attorney in the whole 5 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 1: five Scam, Socialists don't really like charity and the Harvard 6 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:33,280 Speaker 1: Yale climate protest for lunatics.

No, not like er 14 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 1: Toawan Turkey Turkey gobble gobble, exciting stuff. Thanksgiving coming up. 15 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to it. I'm sure you all are too. 16 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: I can tell you this. I'm going to engage in 17 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,680 Speaker 1: intermittent fasting for at least a part of a day 18 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: the day of Thanksgiving so that I can just do 19 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,039 Speaker 1: one of those three thousand or four thousand calorie single 20 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 1: sitting Thanksgiving meals. It's not that hard. When you throw 21 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 1: stuffing into the mix, anything is possible. See, the real 22 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,119 Speaker 1: champions know that you take the stuffing and you mix 23 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,679 Speaker 1: in some of the gravy, and when you get the 24 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 1: gravy and the stuff and together, and then it's sort 25 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: of then you just you can pile that in easily 26 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: three or four thousand calories. I do not recommend you 27 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: try this at home. Your belt will feel tighter. But nonetheless, 28 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: that's what we've got faced on us this week, which 29 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: is exciting. You know, normal Americans across the country woke 30 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: up this morning probably not thinking at all about impeachment 31 00:01:56,120 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 1: because most of them don't care. And that's understandable. But 32 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: the ones who we were paying attention last week had 33 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: to wake up today and say to themselves, what a 34 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,959 Speaker 1: farce this whole thing is. Here we are after being 35 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,919 Speaker 1: told all last week that the president has committed horrific 36 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 1: offenses against the constitution. He's a really bad person. He 37 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: has to be removed from office. If he doesn't get removed, 38 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: then horrible things will befall this republic. What is he 39 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:28,640 Speaker 1: guilty of? Exactly? All the charge changes every day. We 40 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: don't really know, depends on when you ask who you ask. 41 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: It's not the way it's supposed to be in a 42 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: criminal proceeding. But oh, this is not a criminal proceeding. 43 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: It's a political proceeding. But it's not about politics, they say, 44 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 1: it's about our institutions. The goal posts move so fast, 45 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm watching a ping pong match and 46 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 1: just looking side to side to side. I don't know 47 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 1: what's going on anymore. But the problem of Democrats face 48 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 1: right now is that last week wasn't good for them, 49 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 1: didn't work the way they thought it would, did not 50 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 1: have this Watergate moment where Republicans finally start turning, or 51 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: even independence turn in large numbers. Here is a Fox 52 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: News host, Chris Wallace, who is not pro Trump. I mean, 53 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,079 Speaker 1: you can tell by his great he finds the president 54 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: personally distasteful. I think that's quite clear from the way 55 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 1: that he covers all this stuff. But here he was 56 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: just mentioning on Fox a poll that they had on 57 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:33,639 Speaker 1: well where things were before we had Fiona Hill and 58 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 1: the guy with the bow tie and these other State 59 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: Department figures as Sondlin Strange Fellow before that happened, and 60 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 1: after that happened. Here's what the polling says, play seventeen. Please, 61 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: public opinion has begun to actually move against Hi. I 62 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 1: want to put up a pole. Back in early October, 63 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: people favored impeachment and removing the president by fifty two 64 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 1: percent to forty six or plus six. Now that's turned 65 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: to forty eight percent for removal and fifty percent against 66 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: or minus two. That's an eight point swing against removing 67 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:14,119 Speaker 1: the president. While you've been making your best case, well, 68 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 1: they've been making a case that is completely stacked in 69 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 1: terms of the process. You can't bring the witnesses that 70 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 1: Republicans would want to bring forward. Adam Schiff has been 71 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:29,160 Speaker 1: ruling over this thing with an iron fist, all kinds 72 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 1: of dishonesty. This is they took their best shot last 73 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: week at impeaching the president, and they're still going to 74 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: impeach him. By the way, how could they not at 75 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: this point? How could they back away? They were so 76 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 1: wrong about this all along that people are saying, now, well, 77 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: maybe they'll just vote for censure. Well, if they just 78 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 1: vote for centure, that means it wasn't serious enough to impeach, 79 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: If it wasn't serious enough to impeach. Why they bring 80 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: this proceeding in the first place, Why would they bring 81 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 1: this proceeding in an election year? Why not just let 82 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: the people decide? Oh, I think we know the answer 83 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: to that. They must impeach him. There's no way around 84 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 1: it now, given what the Democrats have done, They've backed 85 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 1: themselves into a quarter and they want to impeach. This 86 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: isn't reluctant. Nancy, Paulosi and Chiff and Schumer. They hate 87 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 1: this guy. They hate him because he has pulled back 88 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: the curtain and let the American people see what a 89 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: bunch of feckless clowns run the federal government, and not 90 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 1: just elected office. By the way, I'm talking also about 91 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 1: the Komey's and Brennan's and Strucks and Pages and oh my, 92 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: all of them. They hate him for this. So now 93 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: there are really two camps here of Democrat there's the 94 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 1: wrong but at least trying to sound reasonable about impeachment 95 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 1: side of this, where you have people like for example, 96 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:55,160 Speaker 1: Amy Amy klobischar saying that, oh, but this is it's 97 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 1: very impeachable what he did, even though people don't seem 98 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 1: to think it is. Who didn't hate Trump the first 99 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 1: place play at. So if you've seen enough evidence, even 100 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: though you're eventually gonna have to be a juror if 101 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: it goes to trial whether to quit or convict, have 102 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: you seen enough evidence to date for this to go 103 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 1: to trial. Yes. I made this very clear that I 104 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 1: think this is an impeachable offense, and all of the Senators, 105 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 1: including our Republican colleagues, are going to have to make 106 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: this decision. And I thought one of the really good 107 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 1: points that was made earlier on your panel was the 108 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: point that you can't just close your eyes to this. 109 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 1: You think about back in Watergate, they didn't close their 110 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: eyes when a paranoid president who was up for election 111 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: and looking for dirt on a political opponent got involved 112 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 1: in having people break into an office and steal information 113 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: on their opponents from a filing cabinet. Well, this is 114 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: the global version of Watergate, where a president is trying 115 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 1: to get dirt on a political opponent from a world leader. 116 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,479 Speaker 1: That is basically what happened here, and so that's the 117 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 1: case will be making. That is not basically what happened here. 118 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 1: Asking for an investigation is not the same thing as 119 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: getting dirt. There's a legitimate basis for the investigation of 120 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: the Bidens. Don't let the media obscure this. The Bidens 121 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 1: have given plenty of cause for people to look into 122 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: their conduct, including the vice the former vice president and 123 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: now sitting senator. Right, people look at this and say, 124 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: hold on a minute, Joe Biden had a son who 125 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: was making fifty thousand dollars a month. There's certainly the 126 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: appearance of corruption. The appearance of corruption is how all 127 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: corruption investigations begin. They don't know necessarily there was corruption, 128 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: but it looks like there might have been. And yet 129 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: they tell us that this is just digging for dirt. No, 130 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: if the President had said, fabricate something on my opponent, 131 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: make something up so that we can run with it 132 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: in our election, that would be different. But the reality 133 00:07:54,640 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 1: right now is that they are pretending, pretending that this 134 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: is somehow illicit, and they're hoping that people will just 135 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: buy them because of the hysteria. Here's what Max Boot, 136 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 1: speaking of hysterics, has to say about all of this. 137 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: Black clip one please, I mean, this is the very 138 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: definition of a high crime and misdemeanor, and it is 139 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: very frustrating to me to hear even Republicans like Willhard, 140 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: who are I think are somewhat more fair minded than 141 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 1: the Jim Jordan's or Devinunesses of the world. Even Will 142 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: Hurd saying this is improper but not impeachable. Will to 143 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,479 Speaker 1: Congressman Hurd, I would say, if this is not impeachable, 144 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 1: what is impeachable? This is the most impeachable conduct I 145 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: think we have ever seen from a president of the 146 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 1: United States, and we have to hold him account no 147 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: matter what the politics are, the most impeachable. So more 148 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: impeachable than Watergate. They're not even sure what the conduct is, 149 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,679 Speaker 1: but it is more impeachable than Watergate. I know you're 150 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 1: probably tired of the by the way I said sitting 151 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: i'mant former Senator pardon me, Fomer, Senator Joe Budden. I 152 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 1: know you're probably sick of hearing about impeachment. I certainly am. 153 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 1: But they're not going to stop. The problem that we 154 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: have to face is that they'll just continue on with this. 155 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: They're not going to give it up. They're not going 156 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:21,080 Speaker 1: to move past it. They're just going to say, Okay, 157 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 1: well hold on a minute here. We need to just 158 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 1: find new evidence. We need to find new information about 159 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: how guilty he is. But there's a little bit of 160 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: a sneaking suspicion I think among some of the Democrats 161 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 1: that this may not work out the way they thought. 162 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 1: They knew it was a wild card, they knew they 163 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:43,679 Speaker 1: were taking a political risk in this whole process, and 164 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,680 Speaker 1: they didn't really think through what the long term would 165 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: be here. For example, what happens when the Senate trial 166 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: is underway and the Senate is a Republican majority. All 167 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: the arguments that we've heard about this is a political process, 168 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 1: those will be applicable to the Senate. Now that and 169 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 1: stop the completely dishonest media from lying to all of 170 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 1: you about what happened. But they're going to act like 171 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 1: there's some difference between what happened in the House and 172 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 1: what will be happening in the Senate. Oh, the Senate 173 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 1: is a different chamber, a different body. Can't have the 174 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 1: same expectations for its conduct of the impeachment at that point, 175 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: the trial and possible removal of a president. That's what 176 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 1: they will say. Somehow it's different. All we really have 177 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 1: to know is the difference is a function of who 178 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: has power, who has the votes they don't. Therefore, the 179 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: rules will have to be different. But Adam Schiff has 180 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: already made it quite clear the shiftiest fellow in the 181 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 1: entire United States Congress. He has made it clear that 182 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 1: if Republicans subpoena him, oh, he will not testify about 183 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 1: this play clip six. President Trump just yesterday said that 184 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 1: you yourself should be compelled to testify if the House 185 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 1: moves forward and it goes to the Senate. Would you 186 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 1: be willing to do so in the House Judiciary Committee. 187 00:10:58,679 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: Would you be willing to do so in the sun 188 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: There's nothing for me to testify about, Jake, And I 189 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: think if the President or his allies in the Senate 190 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 1: persist in this, it really means they're not serious about 191 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: what they're doing and what they would they would cite, 192 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: Sorry for interrupting, but they would cite David Kendall, who 193 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: was President Clinton's attorney during that impeachment. He got to 194 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 1: cross examine Ken Starr. Now, I understand you're not an 195 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 1: independent council, but you did lead the investigation. This is 196 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,679 Speaker 1: not an insignificant distinction, Jake. I'm not a special council. 197 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,199 Speaker 1: I don't work for a separate branch of government. I'm 198 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 1: not in the Justice Department. I am more in a 199 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 1: position that Henry Hyde was during the Clinton impeachment, or 200 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:41,679 Speaker 1: Peter Rodino during the Nixon impeachment, or sam Irvin. They 201 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 1: were not fact witnesses. What would I offer in terms 202 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 1: of testimony that I heard doctor Hill at an open 203 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: hearing say such and such. That's not pertinent. The only 204 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 1: reason for them to go through with this is to 205 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: mollify the president, and that's not a good reason to 206 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 1: try to call a member of Congress as a witness. 207 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,079 Speaker 1: If he's playing dumb here and he's hoping that people 208 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 1: are so dumb that they won't figure out exactly what's 209 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: going on, we all know what he would be asked 210 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 1: about if he were to testify. It's not sitting and 211 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: listening to Fiona Hill, who just blathered on about nonsense 212 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 1: in Russia and Ukraine policy for hours, nothing particularly new 213 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 1: or interesting. But it's not that we want to know 214 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 1: when did you start talking to this whistleblower and what 215 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 1: did you tell the whistle blower and what kind of 216 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 1: coordination did you engage in. That's what we would want 217 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: to know. And the problem that he would have is 218 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 1: he's lied about this almost certainly. Does anyone really think 219 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: he doesn't know who the whistleblower is. Does anyone think 220 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 1: he doesn't know who the whistleblower is? If he were 221 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: to be forced to plead the fifth wouldn't at that 222 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 1: point it be quite clear exactly what happened. So there's 223 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: a reason why you're noticing a bit of a silence 224 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 1: today around this issue. You're not seeing them push quite 225 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 1: as hard. They're trying to recover from the expectations that 226 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 1: they had set up for their anti Trump audiences last 227 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 1: week that it was going to be the end, the 228 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 1: beginning of the end of the Trump presidency for real 229 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 1: this time. They've told us that how many times? But 230 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: it was really going to happen this time, the beginning 231 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: of the end of the Trump presidency. But no, it wasn't. 232 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: In fact, as we note at the top of the show, 233 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 1: an eight point swing favored those saying the president should 234 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 1: not be impeached and removed from office. And this, you 235 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: would think, comes at a time when the president would 236 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:37,679 Speaker 1: be most vulnerable to negative public opinion because they've just 237 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: made they've just taken their best shot. The most damage 238 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 1: they could do has been done. Why are we at 239 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 1: this point right now? Well, because this whole thing really 240 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,840 Speaker 1: is a farce because it never was going to be 241 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: what they said it was going to be. They don't 242 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 1: have the goods. They are delusional, they are really ill. 243 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 1: I mean something that Trump has broken though. He is emotionally, 244 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: emotionally destabilized and unhinged, not just Democrat constituents, but Democrats 245 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 1: in elected office too, and so they no longer have 246 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:15,239 Speaker 1: the ability, They no longer have the ability to distinguish 247 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: reality from their own conspiracies. That's possible, That's where I 248 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 1: think we are. But it's also why I would note 249 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: we today have the opportunity to have a discussion about 250 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 1: a new entrant into the ranks of would be presidents, 251 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 1: former Mayor of New York City, Michael Bloomberg. We will 252 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 1: get to it. So we've got a billionaire who wants 253 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: to be yet another billionaire in the race to take 254 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 1: out a billionaire. It's still starting to feel like a 255 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 1: lot of rich people get into politics. Something to consider. 256 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 1: I don't like I don't like dynastays, And if super 257 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 1: rich guys want to be in politics, that's they have 258 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 1: the freedom to do so. But starting to feel a 259 00:14:56,760 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: little bit like we have an oligarchy in this country, 260 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: my friends. Oh wait, that's what Bernie Sanders always says. 261 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 1: Is he gonna say the same things about this billionaire 262 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 1: billionais the millionaires? He gonna say the same thing. I 263 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 1: think he most certainly will, because Bernie Sanders is mister 264 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 1: grassroots support. Well, we'll get to the we'll get to 265 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 1: the burn in just a moment. First, let's let's hear. 266 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: Let's have a moment where we can hear the basic 267 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 1: pitch from I think they say he's worth fifty I 268 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 1: read fifty billion dollars as his estimate of word today. 269 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 1: But here's what they say about Bloomberg, or rather, here's 270 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 1: what the Bloomberg campaign wants you to know. Play club sixteen, please, sir. 271 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: But now he sees a different kind of menace coming 272 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 1: from Washington. So there's no stopping here, because there's an 273 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 1: America waiting to be rebuilt where everyone without health insurance 274 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: is guaranteed to get it, and everyone who likes theirs 275 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 1: can go ahead and keep it, where the wealthy will 276 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 1: pay more in taxes and the struggling middle class will 277 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 1: get their fair share. The jobs that just allow you 278 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 1: to get fine will become jobs that let you get ahead, 279 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 1: Mike Bloomberg for president, Jobs creator, leader, problem solver. It's 280 00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 1: going to take all three to build back a country. Now, 281 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 1: this is true, not just a Bloomberg. So I'm not 282 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: trying to I'm not trying to pick on on him 283 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 1: or his campaign, although we will have some fun with 284 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,400 Speaker 1: that too, don't. Don't we all find it a little 285 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: isn't it just a little corny? A little bit too 286 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 1: too much pandering when they do this, oh like the 287 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 1: you know, the little the light piano playing and like this, 288 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 1: you know, the this stuff, and this is you know, 289 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 1: are we are we a bunch of kids that need 290 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 1: to be entertained with these silly conversial Now this is true. 291 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: Apologies across the board. I understand people do this all 292 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 1: the time, but it's all just so, you know, can't 293 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 1: we just have a guy out there It's like, this 294 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 1: is what I want to do there, we go leave 295 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 1: it there. But they do these really produced um trying 296 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 1: to you know, these this inspirational soundtrack stuff and you know, 297 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 1: fields of wheats? Well, what is it whatever to be 298 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:08,119 Speaker 1: obsessed with seeing fields of wheat all that? It's like, 299 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 1: when was the last time you went I mean some 300 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 1: of you probably have one. Was the last time about 301 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 1: crawling around in a field of corn or wheat? You 302 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 1: know it's been a while. I think just yesterday, no way, 303 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 1: come yeah, where were you? I was strucking corn? Shucking corn? 304 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:25,719 Speaker 1: You were out picking out on the fields picking corn? Yep. 305 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 1: I didn't even know that. So apparently that's why it's 306 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 1: in the commercials, because you never know when Mark is 307 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: going to be out. I'm a farmer in the field, 308 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,440 Speaker 1: producer brand, And when was the last time you went 309 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:39,919 Speaker 1: and picked corn? Zero times? So I'm just marks. I'm 310 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 1: just amazing that you believe renaissance man. He does many things. 311 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 1: You know, we us over here we have seamless on 312 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,400 Speaker 1: our phones and we order they can bring me any 313 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: different variety of Why do seamless when I can skin 314 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:57,160 Speaker 1: my own cow? Skin of cow? You really had quite 315 00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 1: a week, I did, ye damn all right? So I 316 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 1: were going to get to that the burn, the burn 317 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:07,679 Speaker 1: doesn't like. Bertie said, this is unhappy looking, like the 318 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 1: billodare's coming in. They're gonna buy all the ad time. 319 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:14,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if I said ad time or airtime. 320 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 1: It could be either one. But here's the burn saying 321 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 1: that Bloomberg doesn't have grass roots support Play thirteen. Sir, 322 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 1: Mister Bloomberg, to the best of my knowledge, has very 323 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 1: little grassroots support. But he is decided because he's worth 324 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,640 Speaker 1: fifty five billion dollars that he can run for president 325 00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 1: of the United States and spend more money on TV, 326 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 1: as I suspect than nick candidate in the history of 327 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:40,360 Speaker 1: the United States. He is going to flood the airwaves 328 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 1: with ads. I think that this is going to be 329 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 1: a very instructive moment. Here. Here's my prediction, which I 330 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,440 Speaker 1: guess we can mark this down and try to remember this. 331 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,960 Speaker 1: Here's my prediction about where all this is going. I 332 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: think that Bloomberg will spend more money than any candidate 333 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 1: for the presidency in history. Certainly, that's not that's not 334 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 1: a bulb. I think everyone thinks that. But I think 335 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 1: that dollars in dollars out, he will have the least 336 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 1: effective presidential campaign in history in terms of the spending, 337 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 1: how much money is spent in and what he actually 338 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 1: gets a support. Let's just remember that you have during 339 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:26,360 Speaker 1: this whole situation, you have in the historical background Jeb Bush, 340 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 1: who spent I think it was now wasn't his own money. 341 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,440 Speaker 1: It was money that had been raised from people who 342 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: didn't realize that America was not ready for Jeb. But 343 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:40,160 Speaker 1: he's spent one hundred million dollars. One hundred million dollars 344 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: and I think ended up getting the number of delegates 345 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:45,679 Speaker 1: you could count on one hand or something. I mean, 346 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 1: it was a total bust. So you can spend I 347 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:50,680 Speaker 1: mean one hundred million dollars, there's a lot of cash 348 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 1: for anybody. You could spend a lot that wasn't a primary, 349 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,479 Speaker 1: wasn't even a general election. Now you're going to have 350 00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 1: billions of dollars spent, or you would expect there'd be 351 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: billions of dollars spend on ads and just everything for 352 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,399 Speaker 1: the campaigns on both sides of this, going into twenty twenty, 353 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,679 Speaker 1: it will be the most expensive campaign in history. I 354 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: think there's no question about that. But with Bloomberg, he 355 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,680 Speaker 1: has the kind of money where he could finance the 356 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,360 Speaker 1: whole thing by himself. Remember Trump would finance some aspects 357 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:21,440 Speaker 1: of his campaign, the campaign would reimburse him Bloomberg. Bloomberg 358 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 1: will be in a position to spend it all himself. 359 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:29,200 Speaker 1: Really doesn't have to raise a dollar he could. Bloomberg 360 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,160 Speaker 1: is rich enough. I mean, let's be out of Trump 361 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 1: does not have a liquid net worth. I don't think 362 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to upset Trump, especially after he retweeted 363 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:38,680 Speaker 1: me four times in a row of the weekend. You 364 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 1: see that, by the way, four presidential retweets of the 365 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:45,160 Speaker 1: Buckster Bam, bam bam. And you have to get cleared 366 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:46,919 Speaker 1: by secret service or something for that, Like, how does 367 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: that work? What do you mean by retweets? Yeah, he 368 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 1: can just retweet. He just just does it. He just 369 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: does it. Okay, he knows. I'm just yeah, making sure 370 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 1: we're we're all Klosher here FRISD the United States lead 371 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: to the Free World producer Brad, and he's like this 372 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:00,439 Speaker 1: Buck guy. I like his Twitter game, Twitter games, Strong 373 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 1: boom so four in a row. It was pretty awesome. Actually, 374 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. I was in the gym, as 375 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 1: one does, and somebody was like, nice retweets. They texted 376 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: me and I said what And of course at first 377 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh god, what did I do. Now I 378 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,159 Speaker 1: look at it, I see the you know, leader of 379 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 1: the Free World is like this guy, this guy Buck 380 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,679 Speaker 1: understanding your phone must be blowing up. It was blowing up. 381 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 1: It was quite fair. Yeah, I don't know. It doesn't 382 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 1: really followers. Yeah, I can never really tell, you know, 383 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: and I shoud probably look at it and probably got 384 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: a few hundred. Here. I'll do some analytics port Yeah, 385 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,359 Speaker 1: you know, you do the things with the math. Please. 386 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 1: It's one of the reasons why we need producer Mark 387 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 1: here the math. I don't do the maths. That's why 388 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,919 Speaker 1: I'm a radio host. So Bloomberg can spend. Though he 389 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 1: could spend. Oh wait, I was saying about Trump. Trump 390 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 1: was not about to write a check for a billion 391 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: dollars to run for president out of his own funds. 392 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 1: It wasn't gonna happen. Bloomberg could do that. He could 393 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 1: just be like, here it is, here's here's a billion 394 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,600 Speaker 1: dollars for my president, and it wouldn't affect him or 395 00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 1: his lifestyle or anything else at all. When you're worth 396 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: fifty billion now Bloomberg's private company, it's not as simple 397 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:06,880 Speaker 1: as it was explained to me by somebody who knows 398 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: more about this stuff than I do. It's not as 399 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 1: simple as just someone who's entirely liquid net worth, like 400 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 1: say Bill Gates where he can because it's a public company, 401 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:18,679 Speaker 1: going to sell the stock. I mean, Bloomberg's a little bit, 402 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: but Bloomberg super rich, super rich, eleventh richest person in 403 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,399 Speaker 1: the country, I think is what they say. So this 404 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,120 Speaker 1: guy can buy whatever he wants to do in terms 405 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 1: of media coverage. He also has a media organization, a 406 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 1: global one with well, the Bloomberg Company employs nineteen thousand 407 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: people as whatever this morning. So Bloomberg is going to 408 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:41,199 Speaker 1: be in a position to not only buy media coverage 409 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 1: and advertisements and all the rest of it, but he 410 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 1: also has a massive media organization that has said they're 411 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 1: not going to investigate him, obviously, and they're also not 412 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 1: can investigate any other Democrats. So Bloomberg is supposed to 413 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: the news organization of Bloomberg is supposed to be sitting 414 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 1: on the side. But we'll have to see if that 415 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,719 Speaker 1: how how that plays out. I'm I'm certainly skeptical of it. 416 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,880 Speaker 1: So this guy, I think he's gonna spend a time 417 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,160 Speaker 1: of money's not gonna work. But when you've got somebody 418 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 1: with pockets this deep, this is different. This is different. Um, 419 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 1: I don't know what Stire's net worth is. Could you 420 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 1: check that from me? I think Stire is worth I 421 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,360 Speaker 1: mean he's clearly also because Barty's like, he's a billionaire, 422 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,439 Speaker 1: he's on the stage because he's got the billions. But 423 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 1: I think Stire is worth Actually, I don't want to 424 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: say he's a hedge funk. You never know what these guys, 425 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 1: what is Tom Styar's net worth, because that that'll matter 426 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:37,159 Speaker 1: to our because he's going nowhere with any of this 427 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 1: one point six billion exactly what I thought. Oh billion, 428 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: Come on, I mean, what a what a poor fellow? 429 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:50,640 Speaker 1: Billion dollars? What a what a It must be tough 430 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:54,479 Speaker 1: living life like that. It's tough one billion ce CE. 431 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 1: When you're worth one billion dollars, maybe you'll spend like 432 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:04,119 Speaker 1: a fifty to one hundred million on your political aspirations. Maybe, well, 433 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:06,359 Speaker 1: you're not gonna spend more than net We're not gonna 434 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 1: spend more. You know, you're not gonna spend half your 435 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:09,639 Speaker 1: networth to trying to be president when you got almost 436 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:14,120 Speaker 1: no shot. When you're worth fifty billion dollars, you may, 437 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 1: in fact say, let's spend a billion dollars on this campaign, 438 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 1: so we will really test out. Oh. Also, it'll be 439 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: fun to hear Democrats all of a sudden get quiet 440 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:26,120 Speaker 1: about money in politics. I mean that his opponents won't 441 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 1: be quiet about it. But usually the media is all 442 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:31,640 Speaker 1: money in politics, and billionaires buy everything with their money. 443 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: Wait wait, oh, you mean that they're super rich liberals 444 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 1: out there and they're constantly trying to influence the national conversation. 445 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 1: They control most of the major or own outright most 446 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 1: of the major media outlets in this country. Wow, there 447 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 1: are liberal billionaires that are injecting money into things all 448 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:50,640 Speaker 1: over America. It's not it's not just the Koch brothers, who, 449 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,239 Speaker 1: by the way, are socially liberal and open borders, and 450 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:56,159 Speaker 1: I mean to call them conservative is a stretch in 451 00:24:56,200 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 1: many ways. So I would just note that Bloomberg, just 452 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 1: based on his cash flow, could be able to make 453 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: a lot of noise on this one. But now we 454 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 1: could move on to what does he stand for now. 455 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 1: I was on the New York City subway this morning 456 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 1: and it was delayed, which quite to producer Mark chagrin, 457 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 1: because he likes to keep it. He likes to run 458 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 1: a tight ship here in the Freedom Hut. So I 459 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 1: was a little bit late. It wasn't my fault, you know, 460 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 1: it was the fault of the stinky uh, the stinky, 461 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:34,239 Speaker 1: inefficient union contract layden and really embarrassingly inefficient New York 462 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: City subways. Interesting. I saw that the line that you ride. 463 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 1: I won't say it on the air, but it was 464 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:43,120 Speaker 1: fine this morning. False the E train was delayed. There 465 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,639 Speaker 1: were no delays. There was a delay. I'm just he 466 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 1: can I was there, man, I saw it. I was 467 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,440 Speaker 1: I was dealing. I think Buck was home combing his hair, 468 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 1: brushing his teeth, and he was taking extra time. So yeah, 469 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 1: I bring you that New York City has its has 470 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 1: its problems, to be sure. Bloomberg as a mayor in 471 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 1: a left wing monoculture, right, in a left wing political 472 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:13,439 Speaker 1: atmosphere where there's really no conservative. Remember he was I 473 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,359 Speaker 1: can't was he a Republican or an independent when he 474 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:18,119 Speaker 1: was mayor here? I think he was. Technically he was 475 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,920 Speaker 1: a Republican. He ran Republican Republican right, Yeah. And then 476 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 1: because he's like switched, he's one of these guys switched 477 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 1: parties a bunch of times. Okay, so he's a he's 478 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: was a Republican mayor, but he was. He's not a 479 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 1: Republican in no ways. This guy, he's just a was 480 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 1: a Republican. Because it was easy firm with the party 481 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 1: system here. But he is a pretty as statusts go, 482 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:41,359 Speaker 1: and he is a he is a in his mind, 483 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:46,959 Speaker 1: a benevolent authoritarian as status go. He is not grotesquely 484 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:53,120 Speaker 1: incompetent the way that's ay mayor moron what's his name? 485 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:57,120 Speaker 1: De Blasio? Yeah, they know, we all everyone in New York. 486 00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,399 Speaker 1: The great thing about de Blasio is he unifies people. 487 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: You could walk around, I could sit down and talk 488 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 1: to your run of the mill New York City lib. 489 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 1: You know who's like climate change, and everyone's all scary 490 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 1: at all. Trump's Hitler or they say all these things. 491 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,400 Speaker 1: But I can look at them like, hey, we Deblasi 492 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:15,159 Speaker 1: is an idiot, right, They're like, oh my gosh, de 493 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 1: Blasio is a buffood. So at least everyone can be 494 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 1: united on that front. And the city has shown some 495 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 1: of the lack of acumen, that lack of skill governing 496 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:32,360 Speaker 1: skill that Deblasio brought to bear. Bloomberg was pretty good 497 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 1: in some ways. I can't just lie to you and 498 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 1: pretend that Bloomberg was a bad mayor. I actually technically, 499 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 1: I mean I work for the police commissioner. But the 500 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 1: police commission works in the mayor, so in a sense, 501 00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:44,440 Speaker 1: I worked for Bloomberg at one point in the NYPD 502 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 1: Intelligence Division as an analyst, so not very long, come 503 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:50,960 Speaker 1: about a year. But the truth is he was good. 504 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: He was a well, he was a pretty well liked mayor, 505 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:54,919 Speaker 1: even by by rank and file officers. They said, the 506 00:27:54,920 --> 00:28:00,159 Speaker 1: guys pretty good. He believes in, you know, clean streets 507 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 1: and effective police and trains running on time and all 508 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. So as a mayor, he wasn't 509 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,440 Speaker 1: he wasn't bad. I can't tell you he's a bad mayor. 510 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:13,920 Speaker 1: That wouldn't be true. Much better than the current mayor 511 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:15,600 Speaker 1: of New York City, the largest city in the country. 512 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:21,120 Speaker 1: As a possible national level political figure, I mean, he's 513 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: a he's an orthodox lib. He is everything that you 514 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 1: think of when you think of the progressives in America 515 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 1: today on the on the various issues. Outside of perhaps 516 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 1: some ability to balance a checkbook, which he does have, 517 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 1: he does look at math and has some understanding of 518 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 1: what works what doesn't work. But I mean on gun control, 519 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 1: he's he's maniacal. I mean, he is a truly anti 520 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 1: Second Amendment guy. On the environment, he's a total believer 521 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 1: in climate change. On taxation. He wants the rich to 522 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 1: pay more in taxes. He says, but if they I 523 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 1: wish they would just understand that. You know, they keep 524 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 1: saying they're richie to pay more in taxes, and then 525 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 1: they want to raise taxes on people with the household 526 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 1: income of you know, two hundred and fifty thousand dollars 527 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 1: a year or something that doesn't make you rich, makes 528 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 1: you well off. I get it, But you're not rich. 529 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 1: There is no place in America where you make two 530 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 1: hundred forty thousand dollars in one year and you're you're good, 531 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: you don't have to work anymore. Doesn't exist. You're not rich, 532 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: you know. Now, sometimes they say they'll raise the five 533 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars year for household But the point is 534 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:36,160 Speaker 1: they talk about taxing people at Bloomberg's level, and they 535 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 1: love to do this. I mean, this is a great 536 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:44,000 Speaker 1: way to virtue signal. Bloomberg does it, Warren Buffett does it. Oh, 537 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:45,959 Speaker 1: I wish I wish they would charge you more in taxes. 538 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 1: They could write whatever they want. They could send any 539 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: check for any signs they want. I mean, after they paid, 540 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 1: what's do an ode? But they could donate a billion 541 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: dollars year the federal government just to help out, you know, 542 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 1: just kind of deal with the depths a little bit. 543 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 1: They're always gonna be raising taxes on people in ways 544 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 1: that affect far beyond the circle that they talk about 545 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 1: of the very rich. They're very wealthy. So he is 546 00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 1: a he's a doctrinaire liberal on almost all of the 547 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 1: major issues in this campaign. I mean, I'm sure he's 548 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 1: a sanctuary city guy. He's a climate change guy, he's 549 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 1: an antisecond amendment guy. He wants saying he's going to 550 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 1: give healthcare for everybody. We've got to see more of 551 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:32,120 Speaker 1: the details in his plan. But he is interesting in 552 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: this whole race insofar as he has so much money 553 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 1: and seems so committed to this that even if his 554 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 1: campaign itself is a whole bunch of nothing, he may 555 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 1: be in a position to change things for you know, 556 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 1: for other for the other candidates. You know, he could 557 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 1: be a spoiler in some way that we can't yet see. 558 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 1: That's what I think is most likely here. And he's 559 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 1: going to spend more money than probably anybody else, and 560 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 1: they certainly I mean more of his own money than 561 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 1: anybody else in the history of political campaigns, so people 562 00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 1: will call it a vanity run. You can tell the 563 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 1: Democrat establishment, by the Democrat establishment doesn't like this, not 564 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 1: at all. They're not going to be fans of this. 565 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: There are a lot of people who are involved in 566 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 1: getting access to different Democrat but a lot of people 567 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 1: that are involved in these things, and they are not 568 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 1: going to like that. Mayor Bloomberg. Former Mayor Bloomberg, I 569 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 1: should say, doesn't have to go through them. So he's 570 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 1: even though he's a Democrat and he's a doctor in 571 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 1: a Liberal he's from outside the apparatus. So a lot 572 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 1: of the DNC folks are going to look at this 573 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 1: and say, ah, I want to shut this thing down. Oh, 574 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: by the way, I wanted to just weigh in on 575 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 1: a story that we had mentioned here on the show, 576 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 1: and it somehow continues to be a story. This former 577 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 1: representative Katie Katie Hill, she was engaged in It was 578 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 1: a consensual but actual relationship with a subordinate on her staff, 579 00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: which is a clear, you know, black and white letter 580 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 1: of the law, violation of Congressional ethics standards, and Congress 581 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 1: says you can't do this. You're not allowed to be 582 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 1: a Congressman. And have a relationship with somebody who you 583 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 1: have the power of hiring, firing, promoting on your congressional staff, 584 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 1: paid for by the taxpayer. You can't do it. She 585 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 1: did it. There's no dispute about this. Ah. But she's 586 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:32,360 Speaker 1: a Democrat, she's a woman, and there's always a way 587 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:34,520 Speaker 1: to spin this stuff. There's always a way to make 588 00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 1: it useful for the narrative, and the story has somehow 589 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 1: become that Katie Hill is a victim. Initially it was 590 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 1: that she was a victim of revenge porn, which is 591 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 1: a very odious practice where someone takes you know, intimate 592 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 1: photos or something that you had consented to for you know, 593 00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 1: private purposes, and that someone just releases it us. It's 594 00:32:55,640 --> 00:33:00,120 Speaker 1: a very dishonorable and gross thing to do. But keepn on. 595 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:03,160 Speaker 1: I mean, that's not the fault of anybody who was 596 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 1: saying that she should resign from her job in Congress, 597 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:10,000 Speaker 1: which she did because she was having a sexual relationship 598 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 1: with a subordinate on her staff, which is not allowed. 599 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 1: That that is the underlying issue here, But they've tried 600 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 1: to turn her into some kind of a a feminist 601 00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 1: liberal martyr. And Brad Stouter asked her about this, uh 602 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 1: and and this is what the play play clip five. 603 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 1: What should people understand about what it's like to see 604 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 1: these websites publishing intimate photos or what it's like to 605 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 1: be attacked on Fox News? There's multiple layers here, But 606 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:45,680 Speaker 1: what should people know about that experience? I think it's 607 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:47,360 Speaker 1: the you know, it's it's one of the darkest things 608 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: that you can experience. And you know, I think that 609 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 1: this is what we have to think about, is that 610 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,760 Speaker 1: this isn't just happening to me, right, this is happening 611 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 1: to girls and women across the country. And you know, 612 00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:58,600 Speaker 1: that's why we see and I was asked about this 613 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 1: all the time on the campaign show by really young 614 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:04,640 Speaker 1: you know, teenagers and girls who are you know, who 615 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 1: experienced cyberbullying in different capacities and who are saying that 616 00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 1: this is a what are you going to do about this? Right? 617 00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 1: And we don't have an answer for that, So we 618 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:15,399 Speaker 1: need to figure out that fight. But you also see 619 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 1: it as a tactic that is constantly used by the right. 620 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 1: Look at what they're doing to the witnesses on the 621 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 1: impeachment in query, look at what they're doing to you know, 622 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:26,279 Speaker 1: to try to silence anybody who speaks out in a 623 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 1: way that they don't like. So she broke congressional rules, 624 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 1: no question. She you could argue, you know, was in 625 00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:39,279 Speaker 1: a a sexual relationship with somebody in her staff that is, 626 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:42,399 Speaker 1: you know, just ethically an appropriate in general. She could 627 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 1: hire and fire the person. And she's a victim now. 628 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:49,239 Speaker 1: But I love this, a victim of the right and 629 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,880 Speaker 1: Fox News. Everybody gets to be a victim, even the 630 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 1: victimizer if it's a liberal and a female gets to 631 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 1: be the victim. All of a sudden, what is this? 632 00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 1: She resigned? She lost the job. Oh Ja Weager, the 633 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:06,400 Speaker 1: young Turks guy. He's probably running for her seat. So California, 634 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 1: you need your head examine, all right, team, we have 635 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 1: to update you on the story of Navy Seal Eddie Gallagher. 636 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: This has gotten the tension all the way up the 637 00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:18,839 Speaker 1: chain to the President of the United States. This has 638 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:22,880 Speaker 1: now led to the firing of the Chief of the Navy. 639 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 1: I want to bring in somebody who can tell us 640 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 1: exactly what's going on here, because he's been talking to 641 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 1: the family. The Gallagher family all along very involved in this. 642 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 1: Our friend Tyler Merritt, he is the founder and CEO 643 00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 1: of nine Line Apparel. He's a former special operations pilot. Tyler. 644 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 1: Thanks for giving us some of your time, Yeah, absolutely can. 645 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 1: Just for everybody listening, what give us the you know, 646 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,960 Speaker 1: a short but a review of what happened with Chief 647 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,439 Speaker 1: Gallagher and leave out you know, the last few days. 648 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 1: But just how did he find himself in the in 649 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:54,839 Speaker 1: the crosshairs of the United States military justice system. Yeah. 650 00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:57,719 Speaker 1: I think it's a really systemic issue that needs to 651 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 1: be exposed. You have senior leaders in the military that 652 00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 1: like to make careers out of cases like this. You know, 653 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 1: you have legal officers you've never stepped foot in combat 654 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 1: who get wind of some allegations, but rather than investigate 655 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 1: them properly prior to bringing charges as in done in 656 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 1: a civilian court, the UCMJ process is very archaic and 657 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:25,440 Speaker 1: hasn't been updated in quite some time. And I hope 658 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:28,720 Speaker 1: that when the American public really look into this issue, 659 00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: and when they read Gallagher's book, which I hope comes 660 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,840 Speaker 1: out in the near future, they'll see just how messed 661 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 1: up this is. Because nowhere in the civilian world can 662 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 1: you try to put a mole in the jury pool, 663 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: you know, from your senior leadership say, hey, I want 664 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,120 Speaker 1: you to be on the jury and find this guy 665 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:48,800 Speaker 1: guilty regardless of the facts. Nowhere in the civilian world, 666 00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:52,920 Speaker 1: can you go and spy on the opposing counsel's computer, 667 00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:55,839 Speaker 1: Go see everything they're typing everything they have in their file, 668 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,960 Speaker 1: so you know what their plan is going to court. 669 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:01,319 Speaker 1: And these things occurred. These are the things that we 670 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 1: were about to expose prior to the sectary navy resigning. 671 00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:10,279 Speaker 1: And that's just a hue of the instances that you 672 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:14,160 Speaker 1: know led to this. But Eddie Gallagher didn't murder anyone. 673 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:17,799 Speaker 1: He was actually trying to save the IIS fighter's life 674 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 1: at the behest of the Iraqi general and his comrade, 675 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 1: another navy's heel actually suffocated this individual as a mercy 676 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:28,880 Speaker 1: kill because they knew that this Iraqi general was going 677 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:33,600 Speaker 1: to continue to torture, most likely rape until they got 678 00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:36,919 Speaker 1: all the information out of this fifteen year old ISIS fighter, 679 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 1: and he decided to put him out of that misery. 680 00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 1: You know, this individual has already been hit by a 681 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:46,920 Speaker 1: hellfire missile that we fired into his compound because he 682 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 1: was carrying a cell phone that we were tracking. And 683 00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:51,919 Speaker 1: he's a bad guy, regardless of his age, and that's 684 00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:56,120 Speaker 1: war or is absolute hell. And I hope everyone understands 685 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:59,120 Speaker 1: that people like Eddie war fighters. They don't want to 686 00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:01,719 Speaker 1: go to war, but they're willing and able to do 687 00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 1: the things that are necessary to keep us safe. Now, 688 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,799 Speaker 1: he was found not guilty of those charges, as I 689 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:11,359 Speaker 1: understand it, but they did get him. They did find 690 00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:14,400 Speaker 1: a guilty verdict on the charge of posing with a corpse. 691 00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 1: Is that correct? Yeah? Absolutely? Do you still look at 692 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:19,800 Speaker 1: the picture. It's Eddie and eleven other individuals, to include 693 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:24,480 Speaker 1: his superior officers, and at the behest of that senior 694 00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:29,839 Speaker 1: leadership he did pose with that dead isis fighter and 695 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:35,239 Speaker 1: that is not you know, anything that justifies it. But 696 00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:37,640 Speaker 1: he was one of many that did this. And just 697 00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:40,800 Speaker 1: so everyone understands, he's the only one who has found 698 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:44,960 Speaker 1: guilty of this crime, and that is not good order, 699 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:48,560 Speaker 1: discipline and disapliniblize every starry to interrupt ub. I just 700 00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:50,640 Speaker 1: want to understand how could one guy in a photo 701 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:52,200 Speaker 1: of a bunch of other guys be found guilty for 702 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:53,959 Speaker 1: being in a photo and then I'll bring charges against 703 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:56,520 Speaker 1: anybody else. Well, let's take a step back. So at 704 00:38:56,560 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 1: this point they just think that the leadership, the JAG 705 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:04,279 Speaker 1: attorneys trying to make their career case. They think that 706 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:08,600 Speaker 1: they have this slam dunk case. When the evidence starts 707 00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:11,680 Speaker 1: to come out, they don't want to acknowledge it when 708 00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 1: they start to realize that the narrative that they were 709 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:16,719 Speaker 1: fed was a false narrative. The facts that they thought 710 00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:20,839 Speaker 1: they were had were not facts. They found only one 711 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 1: thing that they could find him absolutely guilty young because 712 00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:27,160 Speaker 1: it's a picture, right. So this is a court martial 713 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:30,720 Speaker 1: that's going on. Of the many, many charges that were 714 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,320 Speaker 1: levied against him after he spent nine months in prison, 715 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 1: the only one that they could find him guilty on 716 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:39,799 Speaker 1: was this one. So rather than going and charging the 717 00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 1: rest of the latoon, they just decided, we're going to 718 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:45,279 Speaker 1: use this one charge that we could find him guilty on, 719 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 1: and we're going to try to exact as much punishment 720 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,239 Speaker 1: as we can on this individual because he's embarrassed us, 721 00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:52,400 Speaker 1: he's went on TV, he's made us look bad. And 722 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,359 Speaker 1: now you have egos involved. You have Admiral Green, who 723 00:39:55,440 --> 00:40:00,480 Speaker 1: is a very egocentric individual who is turned out to 724 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 1: be just one of the most despicable commanders if you 725 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:06,400 Speaker 1: look at what he was doing to Eddie usurping the 726 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:11,600 Speaker 1: commander in chiefs intent. This individual had at just one 727 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:14,560 Speaker 1: thing out in mind for Eddie to destroy his life. 728 00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:16,959 Speaker 1: So if he couldn't put him in prison and Eddie 729 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:19,839 Speaker 1: embarrass him, well, by darn, I'm going to reduce his rank. 730 00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:21,920 Speaker 1: And they did. And when the President says, give him 731 00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 1: his rank back, that's ridiculous. Yeah. Hold, because I want 732 00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:26,800 Speaker 1: to ask about the president. So President Trump did intervene 733 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 1: even before the issue of rank, as I understand it, 734 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:31,759 Speaker 1: and every we're speaking to Tyler Merritt. He's a former 735 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 1: special operations pilot. He's a CEO of nine Line Apparel. 736 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:36,880 Speaker 1: You guys see me wearing the T shirts on a 737 00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:41,120 Speaker 1: fair basis, on a fairly regular basis on Instagram. I 738 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:43,759 Speaker 1: want to ask you, where did the President first come 739 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 1: in because my understanding is Tyler that Trump made sure 740 00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:53,240 Speaker 1: that Eddie's confinement wasn't as punitive and essentially wasn't locked 741 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:55,000 Speaker 1: in with a bunch of like rapists and murderers or 742 00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:57,760 Speaker 1: what happened. So just so you know, in the very beginning, 743 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 1: there was a narrative push to the President that's, hey, 744 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:04,040 Speaker 1: there's a video out there. It's really bad. Basically, shows 745 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 1: Eddie killing this guy and just don't intervene. And we 746 00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:09,920 Speaker 1: I actually got to see the video before the president, 747 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 1: and we made sure that he was able to see it, 748 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:15,319 Speaker 1: and it essentially exonerates Eddie. And at that point he 749 00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:18,319 Speaker 1: intervened and said, get this man out of prison. Let 750 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:21,240 Speaker 1: him go through the court martial. He'll be fine, not guilty, 751 00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:23,440 Speaker 1: you know, let do process occur, but get him out 752 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,160 Speaker 1: of prison because he should have never been there. So 753 00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,000 Speaker 1: instead of getting him at of prison and let him 754 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:29,839 Speaker 1: go home to see his family, they get him out 755 00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:32,359 Speaker 1: of prison and create a new prison on base. They 756 00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:35,960 Speaker 1: put him in confinement commensurate with prison, so he couldn't leave, 757 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:37,839 Speaker 1: he couldn't go anywhere, no one could come and see him. 758 00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:40,680 Speaker 1: But he was in barracks instead of a jail celle, 759 00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 1: which is basically the same if you've ever lived in barracks. 760 00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 1: Then the President said, that's ridiculous. Let him have the 761 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:50,239 Speaker 1: free ability to go meet with counsel because at this 762 00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 1: point he wasn't even allowed to talk to his lawyers 763 00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:56,080 Speaker 1: without someone from the chain of command who is spying 764 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,840 Speaker 1: on him, listening to every single word Eddie had to 765 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,360 Speaker 1: talk in Codever, I talked to him. He had a 766 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:05,839 Speaker 1: talking code, and they listened in East job to every conversation. 767 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:07,840 Speaker 1: They listened, and they wouldn't give him a computer to 768 00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:09,719 Speaker 1: talk to his attorney. They were trying to restrict him 769 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:12,680 Speaker 1: from having any ability to defend himself. The President interview 770 00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 1: and again said this will stop, and they eventually allowed 771 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:18,640 Speaker 1: him to do that. And then he goes through the 772 00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:20,840 Speaker 1: court martial and then he gets found not guilty of 773 00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:23,360 Speaker 1: all charges except this one. And then they decide to 774 00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:26,239 Speaker 1: exact revenge by taking away his rank and trying to 775 00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 1: have him retire as an E six rather than an eighth. 776 00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:32,279 Speaker 1: And then when they heard that the President was going 777 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 1: to restore his rank one day prior to that, they 778 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:39,319 Speaker 1: submitted his paperwork for retirement as an E six and 779 00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:42,319 Speaker 1: Eddie has spent the last several weeks trying to get 780 00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 1: that undone so he can retire as an eight after 781 00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:48,319 Speaker 1: the President ordered that he be restored of rank. And 782 00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:50,840 Speaker 1: then because they couldn't do anything else, they wanted to 783 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:53,400 Speaker 1: unceremoniously kick him out of the Navy and not as 784 00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,520 Speaker 1: a Navy seal and take away his trident, you know, 785 00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:59,560 Speaker 1: one last just slap in the face to not only 786 00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:02,040 Speaker 1: Eddie of the President United States, and then you have 787 00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:05,960 Speaker 1: one last text and tweet from him, I'm sure hoping 788 00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:10,200 Speaker 1: that the sect Navy would step in and stop this ridiculousness, 789 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:14,000 Speaker 1: basically saying Eddie needs to be left alone. Go about 790 00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:16,960 Speaker 1: your business. Hey, Sectary Navy, you're already over budget. You're 791 00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 1: doing a horrible job running the Navy. Recruitment is going 792 00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:25,200 Speaker 1: to be hurt forever trying to get your young men 793 00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:28,080 Speaker 1: and women to join the elite forces up the Navy 794 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:31,279 Speaker 1: because we've shown to the American public we don't have 795 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:35,239 Speaker 1: your back. You're gonna go overseas and be expected to 796 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:39,600 Speaker 1: navigate the atrocities of war and hope that when you 797 00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:41,960 Speaker 1: return you don't go to jail for the rest of 798 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:44,160 Speaker 1: your life. Because Eddie would have went to jail for 799 00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:46,799 Speaker 1: the rest of his life if he was found guilty. Yeah, 800 00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 1: he was accused initially a premeditated murder, an attempted murder, 801 00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:53,759 Speaker 1: so you know, the initial charges were as severe as 802 00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:56,399 Speaker 1: it gets. And then he ends up datory, minimney lights 803 00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:58,360 Speaker 1: and jail. Yeah, and they wanted to get him on 804 00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:00,800 Speaker 1: just something. So now you have the Navy Secretary of 805 00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:03,400 Speaker 1: Richard Spencer, who I think you said resign. My understanding 806 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:06,000 Speaker 1: he was fired. I mean he wrote a resignation letter 807 00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:08,640 Speaker 1: after being told you're done. So I guess we could say, 808 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:10,360 Speaker 1: you know, did he resign? Was he fired? You go 809 00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 1: back and forth, but he's out for sure. Oh he 810 00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:15,960 Speaker 1: was fired. Yeah, he was fired days ago. He said, 811 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:19,239 Speaker 1: I'm not resigning. I am in my position and I 812 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:21,560 Speaker 1: serve the will and the pleasure of the President the 813 00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:26,280 Speaker 1: United States. Well, guess what. The President was not pleased 814 00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 1: with your subordinates, completely disregarding his intent, which his intent 815 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,239 Speaker 1: was very clear, whether it's in a tweet or an 816 00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:40,400 Speaker 1: official memorandum. Go back to business. Leave Eddie Gallagher alone. 817 00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:44,640 Speaker 1: He wants to protect our war fighters have gone and 818 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:49,720 Speaker 1: done honorable things. Eddie did not dishonor himself by taking 819 00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:52,520 Speaker 1: just one picture. Maybe it was a lapse in judgment, 820 00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:55,160 Speaker 1: Maybe he should have walked away. He was amongst a 821 00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:59,320 Speaker 1: chain of command then endorsed it, and I'm not gonna 822 00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:02,480 Speaker 1: say that it was right or wrong. But let's go 823 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:05,680 Speaker 1: back to say Vietnam era. Yeah, Eddie's not chopping off 824 00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:10,719 Speaker 1: ears and making necklaces. He's not glorifying this death. They 825 00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:13,839 Speaker 1: close with and they killed the enemy and a lot 826 00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:17,880 Speaker 1: of times it's used for biometrics U. In this case, 827 00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:21,920 Speaker 1: it was probably not the greatest decision, but to single 828 00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:24,480 Speaker 1: out one individual because you couldn't find him guilty based 829 00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:27,880 Speaker 1: on a false narrative. That just goes to show that 830 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:31,600 Speaker 1: these Navy prosecutors, they had every intent of making a 831 00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:34,080 Speaker 1: name for themselves because they're not war fighters. Yeah I wasn't. 832 00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:37,400 Speaker 1: You're a war fighter and you're a patchy pilot, and 833 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 1: you served, you serve in combat, And I just want 834 00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 1: to know why would the Secretary of the Navy here, 835 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:47,319 Speaker 1: this guy Spence, former now Secretary of the Navy, right 836 00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:49,680 Speaker 1: this letter he talks about I think it was good 837 00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:52,520 Speaker 1: discipline and order or something that civilians a phrase that 838 00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:56,000 Speaker 1: I'm sure military. Here's what is he trying to say 839 00:45:56,000 --> 00:46:00,520 Speaker 1: with that. It's a catchall. It's a it's when you 840 00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:04,680 Speaker 1: can't find a reason to get to win in trouble, 841 00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 1: you just say it's this generalized good order and discipline. 842 00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:11,320 Speaker 1: And right now they're still planning on taking the tridents 843 00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:14,040 Speaker 1: of two other individuals that weren't even in that picture. 844 00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:17,840 Speaker 1: They weren't even there. They were just testifying on Eddie's 845 00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:21,160 Speaker 1: behalf that he is a good soldier, that he is 846 00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:24,600 Speaker 1: an honorable Navy seal and because of that, they're going 847 00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:27,480 Speaker 1: to take their tridents. They went against the chain of command. 848 00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:30,160 Speaker 1: And I'll tell you, Eddie walks around you know, Cornado 849 00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:32,840 Speaker 1: and the seal base. He's getting high fives, he's getting 850 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:39,520 Speaker 1: ro hugs. The general military population supports Eddie Gallagher because 851 00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:45,799 Speaker 1: they've been in his shoes. You're elitist noncombatant military members. 852 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:49,440 Speaker 1: They are the problem. These are the Navy jag corps 853 00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:51,839 Speaker 1: that will go from being defender, you know, they'll they'll 854 00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:53,480 Speaker 1: they'll be on the defense team. Then they'll be on 855 00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:56,200 Speaker 1: the prosecution team, which is again very different than the 856 00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:58,680 Speaker 1: civilian world. And they want to make a name for 857 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:02,520 Speaker 1: themselves in a case like this is a career making 858 00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:07,000 Speaker 1: case if they win, so win it all costs despite 859 00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:11,120 Speaker 1: the evidence. Tyler Merritt, everybody's CEO of nine Line Apparel, 860 00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:15,160 Speaker 1: also former a veteran rather himself, Tyler, thank you so 861 00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:17,160 Speaker 1: much for giving us your time, my friend, we'll talk soon. 862 00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:22,640 Speaker 1: Thank you. It is fascinating to watch Democrats show us 863 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:24,920 Speaker 1: what their party is really all about. In this primary. 864 00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:30,080 Speaker 1: You see a lot of really insane positions getting airtime. 865 00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:34,719 Speaker 1: And support from mainstream Democratic candidates. You also see what 866 00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:38,279 Speaker 1: is considered heresy with the Democratic Party, which I think 867 00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:42,760 Speaker 1: in some ways is even more interesting. You have, for example, 868 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:49,440 Speaker 1: well Joy Reid on MSNBC, which is very concerned with 869 00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:52,080 Speaker 1: making sure that whoever wins the Democratic primary will be 870 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:56,440 Speaker 1: someone that MSNBC staff and people that work for the 871 00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:59,839 Speaker 1: MSNBC on and off camera support. They want to have 872 00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 1: those that that connectivity to whoever the Democrat candidate is 873 00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:06,279 Speaker 1: because there's money involved as well as ideological reasons for this. 874 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:11,160 Speaker 1: The access for these journos is very very important. Joy 875 00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:14,120 Speaker 1: Reid is perhaps most famous, at least in my mind, 876 00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:19,959 Speaker 1: most famous for claiming that people hacked her blog from 877 00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:24,920 Speaker 1: ten years ago, and in her voice, in her pieces 878 00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:28,040 Speaker 1: that she had posted on her on her blog, added 879 00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:32,880 Speaker 1: homophobic slurs. That's right. Someone somebody went with like a 880 00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:35,680 Speaker 1: hackers with like a time machine here, somehow went back 881 00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:41,080 Speaker 1: in time and changed what was published there. I don't 882 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:44,360 Speaker 1: understand how anybody could take this person seriously at this 883 00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:47,400 Speaker 1: point as a TV pund it. She said that the 884 00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:50,880 Speaker 1: FBI was investigating. That was her claim, and it managed. 885 00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:52,759 Speaker 1: I remember I talked to Tucker Carlson on a show 886 00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:54,160 Speaker 1: about it, and I said, Tucker, she's going to get 887 00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:57,160 Speaker 1: away with this because this is now the this is 888 00:48:57,160 --> 00:49:00,239 Speaker 1: the escape hatch. Oh well, you know the FBI's looking 889 00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:03,799 Speaker 1: at it. No, don't have the FBI to look at her. 890 00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:06,759 Speaker 1: You know, I'd asked for an FBI investigation, Okay, I 891 00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:09,279 Speaker 1: mean I could ask for nuclear physicists to show up 892 00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:12,200 Speaker 1: at my house tomorrow and build a reactor. I don't 893 00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:14,680 Speaker 1: think that we're going to be doing fission in Buck's 894 00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:17,960 Speaker 1: living room anytime soon, though, but I asked for it, 895 00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:22,480 Speaker 1: so you know, I've done my part. It's ridiculous. But 896 00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 1: here's what you said about. You know, they don't like 897 00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:29,000 Speaker 1: Tulsi and they don't like Yang, and it's because they 898 00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:33,360 Speaker 1: have some very small number of heterodox views. It's not 899 00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:37,600 Speaker 1: Yang and Tulsi are Libs progressives, no question, but they 900 00:49:37,640 --> 00:49:41,680 Speaker 1: don't like that they stray from acceptable left wing orthodoxy 901 00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:46,360 Speaker 1: on some of these issues. So we have, for example, 902 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:52,560 Speaker 1: Joy read here saying this of Tulsi Gabbard play clip three. 903 00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:55,759 Speaker 1: Please you see uses the term regime change wars a lot, 904 00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:58,640 Speaker 1: which is a common term I am in my understanding 905 00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:00,840 Speaker 1: of the way that Russia talks about Yeah, it states, 906 00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:03,160 Speaker 1: if you listen to that rhetoric, you would think that 907 00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:06,279 Speaker 1: the US started a war in Syria, which did not happen. 908 00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:08,080 Speaker 1: That was part of the Arab Spring. If you remember, 909 00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:10,200 Speaker 1: if we've rewind all of this, that war has been 910 00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:12,080 Speaker 1: going on for so long now, that that was part 911 00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:15,719 Speaker 1: of the Tunisian, Libyan, Egyptian, Syria, Yemen. There are many 912 00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:19,080 Speaker 1: uprisings that happened during that time. US didn't start those. 913 00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:26,480 Speaker 1: Oh boy, first of all, first of all, let's let's 914 00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:32,439 Speaker 1: just be very clear about this. She is saying here, 915 00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:36,080 Speaker 1: Joy Reid is saying here that it's a talking point. 916 00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:42,640 Speaker 1: It's a talking point from Russia to bring up regime 917 00:50:42,719 --> 00:50:45,719 Speaker 1: change wars, which liberals have been talking about regime change 918 00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:53,400 Speaker 1: wars for years, for years. I mean, then all of 919 00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:55,480 Speaker 1: a sudden it's a Russia talking point. And then I 920 00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:57,800 Speaker 1: don't even know who the host. I just have the audio. 921 00:50:57,800 --> 00:51:00,880 Speaker 1: I don't know who the other host is. Someone on MSNBC. 922 00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:03,160 Speaker 1: He goes, yes, well, you know we didn't start. Yeah, 923 00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:06,440 Speaker 1: Tulsi's point. I keep him sitting here defending Tulsire. Tulsi's 924 00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:10,640 Speaker 1: point is that if we stay in Syria long enough, 925 00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:14,879 Speaker 1: the only way that we could have a long term 926 00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:17,200 Speaker 1: plan that doesn't involve US just fighting a defensive war 927 00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:20,160 Speaker 1: over territory that is not US territory that we don't want. 928 00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:22,399 Speaker 1: Would be if we get rid of We helped get 929 00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:25,880 Speaker 1: rid of the Assad regime, which was the Obama administration's policy. 930 00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:28,400 Speaker 1: Assad has got to go. That's what they were saying, 931 00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:31,560 Speaker 1: that's what they wanted to do. We armed opposition there, 932 00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:33,279 Speaker 1: so it was a regime change was they't even know 933 00:51:33,320 --> 00:51:36,000 Speaker 1: what they're talking about. It is a regime change war 934 00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:39,239 Speaker 1: depending on when you're talking about it and what the 935 00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:46,320 Speaker 1: circumstances of US military intervention are. And this is a 936 00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:49,920 Speaker 1: Russia talking point. I mean, here I am having to 937 00:51:49,960 --> 00:51:56,160 Speaker 1: defend Tulsi and Yang from Democrats saying crazy stuff about them. 938 00:51:56,280 --> 00:52:00,239 Speaker 1: But there they forget the most important thing, and this 939 00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:02,440 Speaker 1: is really I said. They have heterodox views that might 940 00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:04,840 Speaker 1: even be giving Yang and Tulsi too much credit, but 941 00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:10,400 Speaker 1: they've forgotten this. Getting Trump and defeating Trump and crushing Trump, 942 00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:18,799 Speaker 1: destroying the Trump movement is all that matters. That is all. 943 00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:23,600 Speaker 1: Everything else is just who cares? If it is effective 944 00:52:23,600 --> 00:52:26,239 Speaker 1: as a weapon against Trump is um If it is 945 00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:28,680 Speaker 1: effective as a means of preventing the president from winning 946 00:52:28,680 --> 00:52:32,640 Speaker 1: the next election. That is what matters. That is what 947 00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:37,759 Speaker 1: is real to Democrats. That's it. Everything else is some 948 00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:45,600 Speaker 1: distant who cares situation and Yang and Tulsi don't fit 949 00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:49,799 Speaker 1: into that enough. And that's really why they're a problem 950 00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:53,400 Speaker 1: for the left. That's really why they upset as many Democrats, 951 00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:56,239 Speaker 1: particularly in the media, as they do. Americans tuned in 952 00:52:56,280 --> 00:52:59,200 Speaker 1: to the debate earlier this week and they saw that 953 00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:01,800 Speaker 1: I got called on less than any other candidate, including 954 00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:04,680 Speaker 1: candidates that I'm pulling higher then, and the questions I 955 00:53:04,719 --> 00:53:07,680 Speaker 1: did get had virtually nothing to do with the core 956 00:53:07,719 --> 00:53:11,160 Speaker 1: ideas of my campaign. And if this were an isolated incident, 957 00:53:11,239 --> 00:53:13,399 Speaker 1: that would be one thing. But if you go back 958 00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:16,880 Speaker 1: over the last number of months, MSNBC has literally omitted 959 00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:21,360 Speaker 1: me from over a dozen fundraising and polling graphics. Which 960 00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:24,320 Speaker 1: it's not about me. It's about the three hundred thousand 961 00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:27,840 Speaker 1: plus Americans who've donated to and support my campaign and 962 00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:30,840 Speaker 1: the millions of Americans who know we need to rewrite 963 00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:33,000 Speaker 1: the rules of the twenty first century economy to work 964 00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:36,400 Speaker 1: for us. Think about those people donating ten to twenty 965 00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:39,200 Speaker 1: dollars of their hard earned money to put a candidate 966 00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:42,799 Speaker 1: on the stage and then have MSNBC virtually ignore me 967 00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:46,640 Speaker 1: for thirty two minutes or when they tune into MSNBC 968 00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:49,080 Speaker 1: to see how we're doing in the polls, it's like 969 00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:51,920 Speaker 1: I don't exist. And you can go through the records. 970 00:53:51,920 --> 00:53:53,880 Speaker 1: You can see they've done it to me over and 971 00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:56,239 Speaker 1: over again. And I'm not the kind of guy who 972 00:53:56,280 --> 00:53:59,200 Speaker 1: takes offense easily. But at this point you have to 973 00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:02,440 Speaker 1: call it, like you see, he's right by the way, 974 00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:04,680 Speaker 1: because I've seen it. I've seen the polls that he's 975 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:07,680 Speaker 1: talking about, or I've seen the particularly on fundraising numbers, 976 00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:10,920 Speaker 1: they'll have like the big five whoever that would be 977 00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:12,920 Speaker 1: at the I mean it's I mean, from memory, I 978 00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:16,160 Speaker 1: think it was you know, Biden, Warren, Bernie, Buddha, Judge, 979 00:54:16,560 --> 00:54:19,399 Speaker 1: and I think maybe it was Harris at the time. 980 00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:23,440 Speaker 1: And meanwhile he was like ahead of a Harris and 981 00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:25,919 Speaker 1: fundraising for that quarter or for that month or whatever. 982 00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:29,960 Speaker 1: They keep doing this, they keep excluding this guy from 983 00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:32,960 Speaker 1: not not not the subjective, Oh who are we going 984 00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:35,400 Speaker 1: to do a profile on today? Those are the ways 985 00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:40,479 Speaker 1: that bias can be very present in journos covering these things, 986 00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:42,799 Speaker 1: But it's harder to call that out because there's no 987 00:54:43,760 --> 00:54:47,920 Speaker 1: hard and fast data that we're talking about right and when, 988 00:54:48,040 --> 00:54:50,400 Speaker 1: But when it's fundraising numbers, which has to be shared 989 00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:52,600 Speaker 1: by the campaigns is out there and you're gonna do, 990 00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:56,840 Speaker 1: you know, number the top five fundraisers, and you actually 991 00:54:56,960 --> 00:54:59,200 Speaker 1: go one to three, four and then number six and 992 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:01,319 Speaker 1: you leave that under Yang and this happens again and again. 993 00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:05,160 Speaker 1: You start to think, what's the problem here, what exactly 994 00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:09,279 Speaker 1: are they? And it's because he's not of the establishment. 995 00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:12,280 Speaker 1: You have to remember all these journos, these media organizations, 996 00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:19,520 Speaker 1: these Democrat consultants and pollsters, this is all a real 997 00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:23,799 Speaker 1: level of society unto itself. You know, this is an 998 00:55:23,840 --> 00:55:28,040 Speaker 1: echelon of American political culture, and they know each other 999 00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:30,720 Speaker 1: and there's a lot of insider baseball inside baseball stuff 1000 00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:33,359 Speaker 1: that goes on here and Yang is not from within 1001 00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:37,440 Speaker 1: that culture. So they don't particularly like him. He doesn't 1002 00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:41,840 Speaker 1: seem like he's going to be the windfall for a 1003 00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:44,880 Speaker 1: lot of the established Democrat consultants in the space and 1004 00:55:44,920 --> 00:55:46,960 Speaker 1: all the rest of it. He's shown a willingness to 1005 00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:51,160 Speaker 1: talk to conservatives in media. I've interviewed Andrew Yang, I 1006 00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:53,480 Speaker 1: think at least once, maybe twice came remember now, but 1007 00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:56,680 Speaker 1: he'll talk to people on the other side, which Democrats 1008 00:55:56,719 --> 00:55:59,200 Speaker 1: don't like that anymore. They don't. They don't want that 1009 00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:02,840 Speaker 1: to happen. You anger them when you do this. But 1010 00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:04,640 Speaker 1: as I put it out to you before, I mean, 1011 00:56:04,719 --> 00:56:07,960 Speaker 1: his biggest sin as far as they're concerned, is that 1012 00:56:08,040 --> 00:56:11,920 Speaker 1: Andrew Yang believes I'm sitting here. I sell I should 1013 00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:14,120 Speaker 1: be like doing pr for the guy, but I would 1014 00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:16,680 Speaker 1: really not. I just think that we're seeing what the 1015 00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:20,600 Speaker 1: reality he exposes, realities of the Democratic Party today that 1016 00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:24,480 Speaker 1: we should be aware of. And what he shows us 1017 00:56:25,560 --> 00:56:28,520 Speaker 1: is that he doesn't matter. If you're somebody who wants 1018 00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:31,719 Speaker 1: to put more money in the pockets of or put 1019 00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:34,440 Speaker 1: more food on the table of working people, and you 1020 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:38,799 Speaker 1: want to do something the Democrats aspirationally claim, you know, 1021 00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:41,520 Speaker 1: they say they want to do these things. That doesn't 1022 00:56:41,560 --> 00:56:47,560 Speaker 1: matter if you aren't on the same sheet of music, 1023 00:56:47,600 --> 00:56:51,120 Speaker 1: if you're not on board for destroying Trump first and foremost. 1024 00:56:51,160 --> 00:56:54,040 Speaker 1: I mean, here's play play club eleven. Here's here's Yang's 1025 00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:58,000 Speaker 1: greatest sin. I am on board with impeachment. I think 1026 00:56:58,040 --> 00:57:00,440 Speaker 1: that Democrats are right to move forward. Now we have 1027 00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:02,880 Speaker 1: to face facts. They're not a single Republican his cross 1028 00:57:02,920 --> 00:57:07,439 Speaker 1: party lines to support these impeachment proceedings. And we need 1029 00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:12,880 Speaker 1: literally dozens of Republican senators to join the Democrats in 1030 00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:15,759 Speaker 1: the Senate if impeachment is going to be successful. So 1031 00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:18,400 Speaker 1: we have to be realistic about what the prospects are. 1032 00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:21,720 Speaker 1: And to me, my focus as a candidate is solving 1033 00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:23,800 Speaker 1: the problems I got Donald Trump elected in the first 1034 00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:26,320 Speaker 1: place and helping move the country forward. When we're talking 1035 00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:28,720 Speaker 1: about Donald Trump, we are losing, and that includes in 1036 00:57:28,760 --> 00:57:31,280 Speaker 1: the context of impeaching Donald Trump. We need a new 1037 00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:33,840 Speaker 1: positive vision that Americans can see themselves in a new 1038 00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:39,880 Speaker 1: way forward. No Democrats aren't okay with this, no positive vision, 1039 00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:46,040 Speaker 1: no way for We're no alternative, alternative view for the 1040 00:57:46,400 --> 00:57:51,680 Speaker 1: country's future. Destroy Trump, that's all that matters. And you're 1041 00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:53,800 Speaker 1: not allowed to say things like, well he says he's foreigmpeachment. 1042 00:57:53,800 --> 00:57:55,280 Speaker 1: I know, but he's like, but I mean, come on, guys, 1043 00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:57,880 Speaker 1: like it's really, where is this really going? Not allowed 1044 00:57:57,880 --> 00:57:59,880 Speaker 1: to do that. I gotta wait till this thing is 1045 00:58:00,040 --> 00:58:02,360 Speaker 1: over before you can point out how much of an 1046 00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:07,000 Speaker 1: exercise in sound and fury signifying nothing this whole proceeding 1047 00:58:07,040 --> 00:58:10,000 Speaker 1: really is. When we are talking about Donald Trump. You're losing, 1048 00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:12,720 Speaker 1: and that includes the context of impeaching Donald Trump. That's right, 1049 00:58:13,760 --> 00:58:16,000 Speaker 1: not okay for Democrats. They don't want to hear that. 1050 00:58:16,160 --> 00:58:18,800 Speaker 1: Pelosi and Schiff and all the rest of them, they 1051 00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:22,200 Speaker 1: don't want to be told that there's anything more important 1052 00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:25,880 Speaker 1: than impeaching Trump and that anybody would even say that 1053 00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:28,000 Speaker 1: maybe this isn't going to work out with a Democrat's plan. 1054 00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:32,880 Speaker 1: Yet he's unacceptable to them. But there was another another 1055 00:58:32,960 --> 00:58:35,200 Speaker 1: moment that really just called my attention before we move 1056 00:58:35,240 --> 00:58:40,760 Speaker 1: on to some other important things here Kamala Harris, who 1057 00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:45,640 Speaker 1: I think people have just figured out that they really, 1058 00:58:45,680 --> 00:58:50,720 Speaker 1: the media, the elites with the Democratic Party really wanted 1059 00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:55,480 Speaker 1: Harris to get a lot of support, and they had 1060 00:58:55,480 --> 00:58:58,520 Speaker 1: this feeling that maybe Harris would be able to make 1061 00:58:58,600 --> 00:59:03,240 Speaker 1: it all come together, could all happen, right, They really 1062 00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:06,880 Speaker 1: wanted that, And yet she's just not a very talented politician. 1063 00:59:07,240 --> 00:59:10,960 Speaker 1: She just doesn't have it. It does there's it's not there. 1064 00:59:11,040 --> 00:59:17,280 Speaker 1: For whatever reason, she has not caught really any momentum. 1065 00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:19,720 Speaker 1: They've just been pushing her along hoping that she's going 1066 00:59:19,760 --> 00:59:23,200 Speaker 1: to be somebody who is a formidable candidate. And if anything, 1067 00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:26,800 Speaker 1: she's probably heard her long term political aspirations with this 1068 00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:30,320 Speaker 1: presidential run, not quite as much as Beto O'Rourke, but 1069 00:59:31,440 --> 00:59:33,919 Speaker 1: certainly I think you could you could argue this has 1070 00:59:33,920 --> 00:59:39,120 Speaker 1: been a net negative for Kamala Harris. But she said that, 1071 00:59:39,240 --> 00:59:41,240 Speaker 1: and she said this, and I can tell you there 1072 00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:44,160 Speaker 1: are not going to be any journos who push on this. 1073 00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:47,760 Speaker 1: They're not gonna ask any real questions of her relating 1074 00:59:47,760 --> 00:59:53,680 Speaker 1: to this. But she she said this about drug companies, 1075 00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:55,040 Speaker 1: and you've just got to you got to hear this 1076 00:59:55,040 --> 00:59:59,360 Speaker 1: play for but especially what we're gonna dos so that 1077 00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:03,720 Speaker 1: America consumers are charged a price for drugs that's the 1078 01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:08,680 Speaker 1: average prices he charged around the global and reg and 1079 01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:13,200 Speaker 1: there's a huge difference in a fund being an example. 1080 01:00:13,920 --> 01:00:17,240 Speaker 1: The other thing is this, if people don't want to 1081 01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:20,479 Speaker 1: cooperate with that, I'm also going to do. The next 1082 01:00:20,520 --> 01:00:26,080 Speaker 1: thing was this a lot of drugs prescription vacation was 1083 01:00:26,200 --> 01:00:29,640 Speaker 1: born out of federal funding for the research and development 1084 01:00:29,680 --> 01:00:35,480 Speaker 1: of that book, your taxpayer dollars. So for any drug 1085 01:00:36,120 --> 01:00:39,040 Speaker 1: where they failed, paid by our rules. And if that 1086 01:00:39,240 --> 01:00:42,280 Speaker 1: rug came about because federal funding for what's called R 1087 01:00:42,360 --> 01:00:46,160 Speaker 1: and D research and development, I will snatch their pact, 1088 01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:51,840 Speaker 1: so we will take over and yes we can do that. Yes, 1089 01:00:52,360 --> 01:00:55,480 Speaker 1: yes we can do that. Yes we can do that. 1090 01:00:55,680 --> 01:00:58,120 Speaker 1: It's the question is do you have the will to 1091 01:00:58,240 --> 01:01:03,080 Speaker 1: do it. I have the will to do She has 1092 01:01:03,120 --> 01:01:07,960 Speaker 1: the will to do it. Nationalizing drug companies is how 1093 01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:11,920 Speaker 1: far away from this. We're just gonna take it, government, 1094 01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:15,280 Speaker 1: just gonna take it. This is a glimpse into the 1095 01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:20,680 Speaker 1: kind of authoritarian socialism that you can expect will be 1096 01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:26,120 Speaker 1: increasingly prominent for Democrats if they get their way and 1097 01:01:26,240 --> 01:01:28,920 Speaker 1: if they are back in power. We're just gonna snatch 1098 01:01:28,960 --> 01:01:30,880 Speaker 1: their patent. I mean, the patent is a protection of 1099 01:01:30,920 --> 01:01:33,480 Speaker 1: private property. It's like saying, well, we're just gonna snatch 1100 01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:35,480 Speaker 1: the contract that says we're gonna pay them X amount 1101 01:01:35,480 --> 01:01:38,440 Speaker 1: of dollars and just say sorry, you don't have that anymore. 1102 01:01:39,440 --> 01:01:43,040 Speaker 1: It's gonna snatch their patents away. But Elizabeth Warren does 1103 01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:47,240 Speaker 1: this too. This is this is the this is the 1104 01:01:47,240 --> 01:01:51,520 Speaker 1: the well spring of so much socialist policy. It's a 1105 01:01:51,560 --> 01:01:54,360 Speaker 1: justification for any socialist policy that they can they can 1106 01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:57,480 Speaker 1: conjure up to say that the the you know, the roads. 1107 01:01:57,520 --> 01:02:00,360 Speaker 1: It's not that a private company created a new service 1108 01:02:00,920 --> 01:02:05,480 Speaker 1: and will provide the American people with, you know, this 1109 01:02:05,960 --> 01:02:11,160 Speaker 1: incredible bounty of the last hundred years thanks to capitalism 1110 01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:13,280 Speaker 1: in America. I mean, this country has just been on 1111 01:02:13,320 --> 01:02:16,840 Speaker 1: an economic growth tear and we have been doing so well. 1112 01:02:18,640 --> 01:02:21,440 Speaker 1: But they can come along now, the Democrats, the statusts 1113 01:02:21,440 --> 01:02:25,240 Speaker 1: will come along and say that even if your company 1114 01:02:25,400 --> 01:02:28,320 Speaker 1: didn't get a government grant. And she's talking here about 1115 01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:32,520 Speaker 1: oh research that a lot of research into drugs comes 1116 01:02:32,520 --> 01:02:35,480 Speaker 1: from other researchers. So how many layers of research removed 1117 01:02:35,480 --> 01:02:37,840 Speaker 1: does it have to be from government sponsored research for 1118 01:02:37,840 --> 01:02:41,200 Speaker 1: you to get your patent? She also just says no 1119 01:02:41,280 --> 01:02:43,120 Speaker 1: idea really what she's talking about with R and D 1120 01:02:43,200 --> 01:02:44,800 Speaker 1: and drugs. I mean, this is just something that she's 1121 01:02:44,800 --> 01:02:46,680 Speaker 1: come up with to say, we're just going to make 1122 01:02:46,680 --> 01:02:51,640 Speaker 1: the drug companies charge you, charge you less based on 1123 01:02:51,800 --> 01:02:55,480 Speaker 1: political whim What even that's going to do to those 1124 01:02:55,880 --> 01:03:00,640 Speaker 1: very very expensive processes in place that are FDA required 1125 01:03:01,120 --> 01:03:04,560 Speaker 1: and mandated for new drug approvals from start to finish. 1126 01:03:04,600 --> 01:03:06,320 Speaker 1: The estimate it takes about a billion dollars to get 1127 01:03:06,360 --> 01:03:10,120 Speaker 1: a new drug to market. It's very expensive, and it 1128 01:03:10,240 --> 01:03:11,680 Speaker 1: is not the rest of the world that is coming 1129 01:03:11,760 --> 01:03:14,080 Speaker 1: up with all kinds of new pharmaceuticals and miracle drugs 1130 01:03:14,080 --> 01:03:16,200 Speaker 1: and things. All the time. America leads the way in 1131 01:03:16,280 --> 01:03:18,840 Speaker 1: that because of the capitalist system that we have. But 1132 01:03:19,400 --> 01:03:22,240 Speaker 1: as as I look at this, I have to say 1133 01:03:22,280 --> 01:03:28,640 Speaker 1: I find it disconcerting how quickly you will hear Elizabeth Warren, 1134 01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:31,920 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris and others resort to well, even if that 1135 01:03:31,960 --> 01:03:35,920 Speaker 1: company didn't get government loans or it wasn't a joint 1136 01:03:35,920 --> 01:03:39,640 Speaker 1: public private venture or anything like that, because their workers 1137 01:03:39,680 --> 01:03:42,680 Speaker 1: went to public school mostly, and because they drove on 1138 01:03:42,840 --> 01:03:46,040 Speaker 1: roads that the federal government you know, set up, and 1139 01:03:46,080 --> 01:03:49,920 Speaker 1: because they used you know, phone lines, because their parents 1140 01:03:49,920 --> 01:03:53,440 Speaker 1: were drawing Social Security checks, you know whatever, we basically 1141 01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:58,400 Speaker 1: all own it. What they're doing is just making an 1142 01:03:58,480 --> 01:04:03,080 Speaker 1: argument about collectivism, a collective ownership of property, because I 1143 01:04:03,080 --> 01:04:06,920 Speaker 1: could make that argument about absolutely anything. Now. So what 1144 01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:09,360 Speaker 1: is private and what is public just becomes a function 1145 01:04:09,440 --> 01:04:11,640 Speaker 1: of what the people in power, what the lives. The 1146 01:04:11,760 --> 01:04:16,320 Speaker 1: left says at any point in time, is your house 1147 01:04:16,360 --> 01:04:21,400 Speaker 1: really your house? Or is your house the result of 1148 01:04:21,520 --> 01:04:26,880 Speaker 1: government loans? Over time, government workers that are getting you know, 1149 01:04:26,960 --> 01:04:30,720 Speaker 1: support and subsidy from whether it's from straight up welfare 1150 01:04:30,760 --> 01:04:34,160 Speaker 1: programs or from entitlement programs, or you know, your house 1151 01:04:34,240 --> 01:04:36,360 Speaker 1: is only valuable because of the power lines that have 1152 01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:38,360 Speaker 1: been run through the neighborhood, because of the street that 1153 01:04:38,440 --> 01:04:41,640 Speaker 1: was paved in front of it, because of the workers 1154 01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:46,400 Speaker 1: that built your house, who are raised going to public 1155 01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:48,840 Speaker 1: schools in America paid for by taxpayer dollars. You know, 1156 01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:50,920 Speaker 1: some of them maybe grew up in public housing. Whatever, 1157 01:04:51,160 --> 01:04:52,960 Speaker 1: whatever the case may be, you could always find a 1158 01:04:53,000 --> 01:04:55,400 Speaker 1: way to justify this. What's not really your house? And 1159 01:04:55,440 --> 01:04:59,320 Speaker 1: I would note that they're already, as a concerned argument, 1160 01:04:59,400 --> 01:05:01,440 Speaker 1: it's not really house because because of taxes where you 1161 01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:03,680 Speaker 1: pay property taxes, you rent your house even if you 1162 01:05:03,680 --> 01:05:06,160 Speaker 1: own it from the government, because you have to pay 1163 01:05:06,200 --> 01:05:08,320 Speaker 1: for those government services for that house. At any point 1164 01:05:08,320 --> 01:05:11,360 Speaker 1: in time, you don't even own your house. So we're 1165 01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:14,920 Speaker 1: already much closer to collective ownership in many ways in 1166 01:05:14,960 --> 01:05:18,120 Speaker 1: the government's eyes than we realize. But now they're saying 1167 01:05:18,160 --> 01:05:21,600 Speaker 1: it so openly. Now they're telling us that at any 1168 01:05:21,640 --> 01:05:23,720 Speaker 1: point in time they may just decide that that's not 1169 01:05:23,760 --> 01:05:27,200 Speaker 1: really yours. Whatever that company asset is, it's not really yours. 1170 01:05:27,240 --> 01:05:32,640 Speaker 1: The public needs it more. This mentality was even enshrined 1171 01:05:33,080 --> 01:05:38,200 Speaker 1: by very poor Supreme Court decision that said that if 1172 01:05:38,200 --> 01:05:42,480 Speaker 1: there's a an eminent domain for private use, even then 1173 01:05:42,520 --> 01:05:45,040 Speaker 1: they can seize property. You know, if they're if they're 1174 01:05:45,040 --> 01:05:47,560 Speaker 1: going to build a mall that's really helpful for the neighborhood, 1175 01:05:47,600 --> 01:05:48,880 Speaker 1: and they got to get rid of your house, well 1176 01:05:48,880 --> 01:05:51,400 Speaker 1: then they're going to take take your house. So much 1177 01:05:51,400 --> 01:05:53,560 Speaker 1: for private property, right, it's not for even government purpose, 1178 01:05:53,560 --> 01:05:57,200 Speaker 1: for private purpose. So this we have been losing our 1179 01:05:57,640 --> 01:06:01,560 Speaker 1: rights to private property for a long time. Discourse around 1180 01:06:01,600 --> 01:06:05,040 Speaker 1: it now is just becoming more open and really more aggressive. 1181 01:06:05,160 --> 01:06:07,920 Speaker 1: You know, this is Obama's you didn't build that. You 1182 01:06:07,920 --> 01:06:12,400 Speaker 1: didn't build that here. It was all the other people 1183 01:06:13,080 --> 01:06:16,360 Speaker 1: that that did stuff before you. I mean, you could 1184 01:06:16,400 --> 01:06:19,040 Speaker 1: say that I haven't achieved None of us have achieved 1185 01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:22,920 Speaker 1: anything in our lives because it was only a result 1186 01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:26,959 Speaker 1: of the United States government mobilizing and winning the Second 1187 01:06:27,000 --> 01:06:29,680 Speaker 1: World War and defeating fascism that we even aren't sitting 1188 01:06:29,680 --> 01:06:31,640 Speaker 1: around speaking German today, right, So, I mean we didn't 1189 01:06:31,680 --> 01:06:34,439 Speaker 1: do anything. Thank you government for everything. Oh bow down 1190 01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:37,920 Speaker 1: and worship at the altar of government, because without government action, 1191 01:06:38,080 --> 01:06:39,720 Speaker 1: none of us would be here. I mean, this is absurd. 1192 01:06:40,600 --> 01:06:43,640 Speaker 1: There are no outer limits there's no limiting principle to 1193 01:06:43,720 --> 01:06:46,000 Speaker 1: this theory. But Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris and others will 1194 01:06:46,040 --> 01:06:49,160 Speaker 1: say it, we'll take your patent, We'll take whatever we 1195 01:06:49,200 --> 01:06:52,240 Speaker 1: want to take, because it's not really yours. They also 1196 01:06:52,320 --> 01:06:55,640 Speaker 1: think this way about taxes. You'll notice that too, tax 1197 01:06:55,720 --> 01:07:01,600 Speaker 1: cuts are an expense. They will say, no expenses, our expenses. 1198 01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:05,720 Speaker 1: Tax cuts is taking less from you. But the way 1199 01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:09,640 Speaker 1: that this is framed, you start to see that the 1200 01:07:09,680 --> 01:07:13,800 Speaker 1: people who really believe that government is capable of creating 1201 01:07:13,880 --> 01:07:16,600 Speaker 1: utopia if only given the power, and should be involved 1202 01:07:16,600 --> 01:07:20,920 Speaker 1: in every aspect of our lives, they also believe that 1203 01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:23,720 Speaker 1: your property is only whatever the government deigns to let 1204 01:07:23,800 --> 01:07:27,200 Speaker 1: you keep. That has not worked out very well in 1205 01:07:27,200 --> 01:07:30,280 Speaker 1: other places. Let's talk about the fact that in America 1206 01:07:30,400 --> 01:07:33,160 Speaker 1: it is a tragedy that women make only eighty cents 1207 01:07:33,200 --> 01:07:35,560 Speaker 1: on the dollar, but black women are making sixty one 1208 01:07:35,640 --> 01:07:40,840 Speaker 1: cents on the dollar. And we could go on and 1209 01:07:40,920 --> 01:07:46,680 Speaker 1: on down the list talking about the fact that when 1210 01:07:46,680 --> 01:07:50,720 Speaker 1: we talk about what we need, what we want, and 1211 01:07:50,760 --> 01:07:54,480 Speaker 1: who we are in terms of leadership, there is incredible 1212 01:07:54,520 --> 01:07:56,680 Speaker 1: work that is happening, and there is so much work 1213 01:07:56,720 --> 01:08:00,800 Speaker 1: to be done. Do you think any will ask Kamala 1214 01:08:00,800 --> 01:08:04,160 Speaker 1: Harris about this statistic. A lot of your business owners 1215 01:08:04,200 --> 01:08:06,120 Speaker 1: who listen to this, I know because you write in 1216 01:08:06,160 --> 01:08:09,400 Speaker 1: and you tell me about it. Also, just based on 1217 01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:11,160 Speaker 1: the fact that we got hundreds of thousands of people 1218 01:08:11,160 --> 01:08:13,200 Speaker 1: listening across the country, I figure that some of your 1219 01:08:13,200 --> 01:08:17,360 Speaker 1: own owning businesses, if you could, if you could get 1220 01:08:17,360 --> 01:08:22,920 Speaker 1: somebody to do the exact same quality of work, and 1221 01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:24,519 Speaker 1: I mean for any of your employees, you get the 1222 01:08:24,560 --> 01:08:27,200 Speaker 1: exact same quality of work, the same hours, the same 1223 01:08:28,000 --> 01:08:33,680 Speaker 1: same work history and expertise beforehand, and you could you 1224 01:08:33,680 --> 01:08:39,160 Speaker 1: could save forty percent in labor costs? Would you pass 1225 01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:43,160 Speaker 1: that up? I mean, think about this how because the 1226 01:08:43,360 --> 01:08:47,479 Speaker 1: allegation is that it's discrimination. It's discrimination against particularly African 1227 01:08:47,479 --> 01:08:53,280 Speaker 1: American women in this case. Even if somebody was and 1228 01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:58,599 Speaker 1: I'm not conceiving this, even if somebody was a bit 1229 01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:03,080 Speaker 1: discriminatory and they're out look, the idea of saving forty 1230 01:09:03,120 --> 01:09:06,880 Speaker 1: cents on the dollar for an employee would be a 1231 01:09:06,920 --> 01:09:13,519 Speaker 1: counterweight to their decision making. You would think, maybe this 1232 01:09:13,640 --> 01:09:16,919 Speaker 1: is just nonsense, just like the pay gap is nonsense. 1233 01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:20,920 Speaker 1: This is not true. If people could get the same work, 1234 01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:25,799 Speaker 1: the same labor for forty percent less or even whatever 1235 01:09:25,840 --> 01:09:29,800 Speaker 1: it is, twenty or thirty percent less. They would say, Ah, 1236 01:09:29,880 --> 01:09:32,120 Speaker 1: business owners want to make money. They would say, I 1237 01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:33,719 Speaker 1: want to do that. But no one's going to challenge 1238 01:09:33,760 --> 01:09:35,720 Speaker 1: Kamalaris on this. No one's gonna challenge R on it. 1239 01:09:36,200 --> 01:09:37,720 Speaker 1: All the studies they used to come up with these 1240 01:09:37,800 --> 01:09:42,639 Speaker 1: numbers are nonsense. It makes no differentiation about about previous 1241 01:09:42,680 --> 01:09:45,200 Speaker 1: work history, about hours in the office, about you know, 1242 01:09:45,360 --> 01:09:48,840 Speaker 1: they just they're just cooking the books on this all 1243 01:09:48,880 --> 01:09:51,120 Speaker 1: the time. But we have to keep hearing this, and 1244 01:09:51,160 --> 01:09:55,640 Speaker 1: they never push back on the lies. And then they 1245 01:09:55,720 --> 01:09:58,200 Speaker 1: lecture us about how Trump lies so much. Just how 1246 01:09:58,240 --> 01:10:03,040 Speaker 1: crazy are the climate change loons? You know that I 1247 01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:05,519 Speaker 1: like talking about how nuts they are, because they are. 1248 01:10:06,640 --> 01:10:10,120 Speaker 1: They rallied around a sixteen year old girl as a 1249 01:10:10,160 --> 01:10:17,280 Speaker 1: spokesperson for an issue of tremendous scientific and economic and 1250 01:10:17,439 --> 01:10:22,120 Speaker 1: financial importance on a global scale. Let's take what the 1251 01:10:22,160 --> 01:10:24,960 Speaker 1: sixteen year old says seriously, because serious adults would listen 1252 01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:27,840 Speaker 1: to a sixteen year old about those issues. They don't 1253 01:10:27,880 --> 01:10:33,559 Speaker 1: seem to care how silly, how foolish they look. And 1254 01:10:33,680 --> 01:10:38,160 Speaker 1: that is extending now even to things that I had 1255 01:10:38,240 --> 01:10:45,600 Speaker 1: thought were I guess somewhat sacred. Still in America, you 1256 01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:48,479 Speaker 1: had activism. I don't watch college football, which I know, 1257 01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:51,080 Speaker 1: and those of you who love it, God bless and 1258 01:10:51,120 --> 01:10:53,720 Speaker 1: I'm glad you enjoy it so much. I went to 1259 01:10:53,720 --> 01:10:57,040 Speaker 1: a school with sixteen hundred people, and who cares about 1260 01:10:57,080 --> 01:10:59,080 Speaker 1: the football team at a school at sixteen hundred. It's 1261 01:10:59,120 --> 01:11:03,440 Speaker 1: just it's just you can't. So I had no collegiate 1262 01:11:04,439 --> 01:11:07,760 Speaker 1: excitement about sports of any kind, really, but particularly about 1263 01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:09,040 Speaker 1: I like to play them. I just didn't really like 1264 01:11:09,080 --> 01:11:12,160 Speaker 1: to watch other people play them. And then the Harvard 1265 01:11:12,240 --> 01:11:18,280 Speaker 1: Yale game. Harvard Yale game. Hello, Harvard Yale. It so fun. 1266 01:11:18,960 --> 01:11:22,080 Speaker 1: We all traveled to the game, and the servants bring 1267 01:11:22,160 --> 01:11:24,960 Speaker 1: little umbrellas to hold over us. I guess it's cold, 1268 01:11:25,000 --> 01:11:28,479 Speaker 1: so probably the servants bring little heaters, little hot water 1269 01:11:28,560 --> 01:11:34,559 Speaker 1: bottles for us. Make sure that martinis are just so 1270 01:11:34,640 --> 01:11:36,280 Speaker 1: I was kidding. I mean, Harvard Yale. Give. I'm sure 1271 01:11:36,280 --> 01:11:38,680 Speaker 1: people have a lot of fun, but they didn't have 1272 01:11:38,720 --> 01:11:41,880 Speaker 1: that much fun that well, there was at least a 1273 01:11:41,920 --> 01:11:43,720 Speaker 1: period where they weren't able to have as much fun 1274 01:11:44,720 --> 01:11:49,599 Speaker 1: because there was an our delay. I would have been 1275 01:11:49,680 --> 01:11:54,679 Speaker 1: very unhappy with this and our delay when Yale and Harvard. 1276 01:11:55,400 --> 01:11:59,200 Speaker 1: When students from these schools rush the field at the 1277 01:11:59,280 --> 01:12:02,240 Speaker 1: end of halftime and sat in the center of the field. 1278 01:12:02,280 --> 01:12:07,080 Speaker 1: This is the super fancy IVY League school equivalent of 1279 01:12:07,240 --> 01:12:11,320 Speaker 1: lying down in traffic to prevent more cars from getting by. 1280 01:12:11,360 --> 01:12:16,080 Speaker 1: I mean, this is pay attention to us or else. 1281 01:12:17,760 --> 01:12:20,920 Speaker 1: Here's the audio as it was happening. Play clip two. 1282 01:12:21,000 --> 01:12:24,640 Speaker 1: Please the game currently going on in New Haven, Connecticut. 1283 01:12:24,680 --> 01:12:27,960 Speaker 1: Isn't a delay over on ESPNU. There are protesters on 1284 01:12:27,960 --> 01:12:31,559 Speaker 1: the field attempting to bring more attention to climate change. 1285 01:12:32,200 --> 01:12:34,840 Speaker 1: Lots of protesters on the field inside the Yale Bowl. 1286 01:12:36,240 --> 01:12:43,839 Speaker 1: Protesters on the field trying to bring attention to climate change. 1287 01:12:44,960 --> 01:12:47,479 Speaker 1: Now it's pretty cold out there, and people want to 1288 01:12:47,479 --> 01:12:51,760 Speaker 1: watch their football. An hour long delay, that's a long goal. 1289 01:12:52,080 --> 01:12:53,720 Speaker 1: How long is a football half time? You're just like 1290 01:12:53,720 --> 01:12:57,960 Speaker 1: fifteen minutes, right, yes, right, so this was an hour. 1291 01:12:58,880 --> 01:13:02,479 Speaker 1: I would be very upset at these people. This proucer Mark, 1292 01:13:02,520 --> 01:13:05,599 Speaker 1: What would you do if somebody went out there and 1293 01:13:05,600 --> 01:13:07,560 Speaker 1: and slipped out onto the ice in the middle of 1294 01:13:07,600 --> 01:13:10,840 Speaker 1: a very important hockey game. Well, that would probably never happen, 1295 01:13:10,880 --> 01:13:13,800 Speaker 1: but I'd be very angry. You'd be very angry. Well, 1296 01:13:13,800 --> 01:13:15,639 Speaker 1: I guess because also those like the Plexi glass would 1297 01:13:15,600 --> 01:13:17,280 Speaker 1: be a little harder. Yeah, you would have to jump 1298 01:13:17,360 --> 01:13:20,040 Speaker 1: over it or get past security and open the gate 1299 01:13:20,040 --> 01:13:22,840 Speaker 1: and be able the protesters out because they're there, they're 1300 01:13:22,960 --> 01:13:25,519 Speaker 1: behinds are gonna get pretty cold sitting down on that ice. Yeah, 1301 01:13:25,520 --> 01:13:28,080 Speaker 1: and they probably slip immediately. They're not smart enough to 1302 01:13:28,120 --> 01:13:30,160 Speaker 1: have the spiky shoes on. That's true. It wouldn't work 1303 01:13:30,160 --> 01:13:32,840 Speaker 1: that well. Football unfortunately, far too easy to do this. 1304 01:13:33,360 --> 01:13:35,919 Speaker 1: And that is what happened. And if you were wondering 1305 01:13:37,080 --> 01:13:44,559 Speaker 1: what is it, what is it exactly that these students want, 1306 01:13:45,000 --> 01:13:48,280 Speaker 1: they wrote a letter to let us know, or I'm sorry, 1307 01:13:48,280 --> 01:13:51,080 Speaker 1: an editorial probably a letter too, but an editorial in 1308 01:13:51,280 --> 01:13:54,920 Speaker 1: the Guardian. We have a couple of students here from 1309 01:13:54,960 --> 01:13:57,040 Speaker 1: I think Harvard and Yale or whatever. By the way, 1310 01:13:57,040 --> 01:13:59,200 Speaker 1: these these are not serious. Just to understand, these are 1311 01:13:59,720 --> 01:14:03,799 Speaker 1: not serious institutions of higher learning anymore. They're finishing school 1312 01:14:04,000 --> 01:14:07,120 Speaker 1: for elite libs. And there's one hundred different ways that 1313 01:14:07,120 --> 01:14:08,840 Speaker 1: people get in that have nothing to do with being smart. 1314 01:14:08,920 --> 01:14:11,600 Speaker 1: So you just just forget about our whole conception of 1315 01:14:11,640 --> 01:14:13,719 Speaker 1: all these schools are producing the best and the broughtest 1316 01:14:13,760 --> 01:14:16,040 Speaker 1: in the future. It's really just all It's just all 1317 01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:19,160 Speaker 1: now a new iteration of the social club. It's you know, 1318 01:14:19,160 --> 01:14:21,400 Speaker 1: can you get into the club? Can you leverage this 1319 01:14:21,479 --> 01:14:23,960 Speaker 1: for yourself? These students go there for four years. They 1320 01:14:23,960 --> 01:14:27,040 Speaker 1: don't learn squat Hey really don't like I went to 1321 01:14:27,120 --> 01:14:29,280 Speaker 1: a reasonably fancy school myself. I don't learn very much 1322 01:14:29,280 --> 01:14:31,640 Speaker 1: of anything that I didn't try to teach myself. You 1323 01:14:31,640 --> 01:14:34,680 Speaker 1: can show up these classes, big lecture hall. Everyone just 1324 01:14:34,720 --> 01:14:37,519 Speaker 1: talking about diversity inclusion all the time. This all anyone 1325 01:14:37,560 --> 01:14:43,440 Speaker 1: cares about, and socializing and getting too drunk and excess fornication. 1326 01:14:44,920 --> 01:14:48,639 Speaker 1: Here's what the Guardian. This editor on the Guardian says, 1327 01:14:48,800 --> 01:14:53,439 Speaker 1: why we risked arrest, oh my gosh, to protest Harvard 1328 01:14:53,479 --> 01:15:00,719 Speaker 1: and Yale funding fossil fuel giants. This is one hundred 1329 01:15:00,720 --> 01:15:04,000 Speaker 1: and thirty six Harvard Yale football game. Here's what they 1330 01:15:04,040 --> 01:15:05,680 Speaker 1: say about this. It was not an accident. It was 1331 01:15:05,680 --> 01:15:10,000 Speaker 1: a strategic choice, these students said. By leveraging, or wrote, 1332 01:15:10,040 --> 01:15:12,280 Speaker 1: by leveraging our privilege as students of two of the 1333 01:15:12,280 --> 01:15:16,120 Speaker 1: world's richest universities, we call the attention to our universities 1334 01:15:16,120 --> 01:15:20,479 Speaker 1: and all of our institutions complicity in degrading our planet 1335 01:15:20,920 --> 01:15:25,200 Speaker 1: and our futures through their continued investment in the fossil 1336 01:15:25,240 --> 01:15:29,960 Speaker 1: fuel industry. In a climate emergency, we cannot afford to 1337 01:15:30,080 --> 01:15:34,479 Speaker 1: kick back, watch the game and ignore reality. Our movement, 1338 01:15:34,600 --> 01:15:38,320 Speaker 1: the youth movement for Climate action and justice, cannot win 1339 01:15:38,520 --> 01:15:42,160 Speaker 1: if we play by the rules. As we fight to divest, 1340 01:15:42,320 --> 01:15:48,240 Speaker 1: we fight to radically transform an unsustainable and unethical status quo. 1341 01:15:48,960 --> 01:15:51,120 Speaker 1: Climate change is not a distant reality for us. It 1342 01:15:51,240 --> 01:15:57,880 Speaker 1: is imminent and deeply personal. Within both Fossil Fuel Divest 1343 01:15:57,920 --> 01:16:02,680 Speaker 1: Harvard and Yale's Endowment Justice Coalition, students come from the 1344 01:16:02,800 --> 01:16:08,000 Speaker 1: smoke filled skies of California, the vanishing shores of American Samoa, 1345 01:16:08,040 --> 01:16:12,840 Speaker 1: and the hurricane hurricane hit lands of Puerto Rico. Our 1346 01:16:13,000 --> 01:16:16,920 Speaker 1: universities are not immune to narratives of climate disaster and injustice. 1347 01:16:18,680 --> 01:16:23,599 Speaker 1: My friends, these people are nuts. First of all, there 1348 01:16:23,680 --> 01:16:26,559 Speaker 1: is no there is no correlation whatsoever, and no serious 1349 01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:29,200 Speaker 1: person who looks at the data argues otherwise between serious 1350 01:16:29,200 --> 01:16:31,479 Speaker 1: storms and climate change. It just doesn't It's not real, 1351 01:16:31,520 --> 01:16:36,040 Speaker 1: it doesn't exist. It's not there. They can keep pretending 1352 01:16:36,080 --> 01:16:39,439 Speaker 1: it is, but it's this is this is a you're seeing, 1353 01:16:39,479 --> 01:16:42,519 Speaker 1: This is where belief overtakes reason. That's what climate change 1354 01:16:42,560 --> 01:16:44,840 Speaker 1: has become. This is people. This is a religious belief, 1355 01:16:44,880 --> 01:16:50,240 Speaker 1: it really is. You know, I could sit there and 1356 01:16:50,280 --> 01:16:55,519 Speaker 1: I could try to convince somebody, for example, that they 1357 01:16:55,560 --> 01:16:58,280 Speaker 1: should look at the data too, and they would never 1358 01:16:58,320 --> 01:17:01,599 Speaker 1: get beyond I'm a bad person who doesn't care about 1359 01:17:01,600 --> 01:17:05,880 Speaker 1: the planet. Neither of those things are true, but they've 1360 01:17:05,920 --> 01:17:08,559 Speaker 1: been conditioned to jump right to that, so nothing else 1361 01:17:08,560 --> 01:17:11,439 Speaker 1: that I say matters because I don't care about the planet, 1362 01:17:11,640 --> 01:17:15,759 Speaker 1: only the climate change. I want to destroy the planet 1363 01:17:15,800 --> 01:17:20,160 Speaker 1: for the fossil fuel industry. These people are morons. It 1364 01:17:20,240 --> 01:17:23,439 Speaker 1: makes no sense. I don't care about future only they 1365 01:17:23,479 --> 01:17:25,880 Speaker 1: care about future generations. I don't care about few generations 1366 01:17:26,760 --> 01:17:30,240 Speaker 1: because I'm paid off by who. Sounds great, somebody should 1367 01:17:30,280 --> 01:17:33,880 Speaker 1: pay me off. Who's paying me off? No, I just 1368 01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:35,559 Speaker 1: think that people should be able to watch a football 1369 01:17:35,560 --> 01:17:39,200 Speaker 1: game without a bunch of complete imbeciles sitting in the 1370 01:17:39,240 --> 01:17:41,400 Speaker 1: middle of the field and making everyone cold and board. 1371 01:17:42,360 --> 01:17:44,240 Speaker 1: What what is this going to do? But they want 1372 01:17:44,320 --> 01:17:51,400 Speaker 1: control of the very large, multi billion dollar endowments that 1373 01:17:51,600 --> 01:17:56,240 Speaker 1: these two universities both have. Here they get into some specifics, 1374 01:17:56,240 --> 01:17:57,840 Speaker 1: but what's supposed to be done so that they want 1375 01:17:57,880 --> 01:18:02,240 Speaker 1: to hijack decision making about the endowments of these schools. 1376 01:18:02,280 --> 01:18:03,519 Speaker 1: These students. You have to do what we say with 1377 01:18:03,560 --> 01:18:05,360 Speaker 1: your money. But these kids are all lucky to be there. 1378 01:18:05,960 --> 01:18:07,640 Speaker 1: Any One of these kids can be replaced by one 1379 01:18:07,680 --> 01:18:10,519 Speaker 1: hundred other kids in a day. And they're running around 1380 01:18:10,560 --> 01:18:14,400 Speaker 1: making demands. But the schools get afraid of them, you know, 1381 01:18:14,600 --> 01:18:19,280 Speaker 1: the schools get scared of the little social justice maniacs. Quote. 1382 01:18:19,280 --> 01:18:21,559 Speaker 1: It's not only through their investments that these elite institutions 1383 01:18:21,640 --> 01:18:25,840 Speaker 1: prop up the bad actors behind our planets degradation. WHOA. 1384 01:18:26,160 --> 01:18:29,880 Speaker 1: Harvard continues to refuse to publicly recognize the vast and 1385 01:18:30,120 --> 01:18:33,400 Speaker 1: problematic ties that the Harvard Corporation maintained to the fossil 1386 01:18:33,439 --> 01:18:36,719 Speaker 1: fuel industry, including that one of its members, Ted Wells, 1387 01:18:37,240 --> 01:18:41,920 Speaker 1: is a top lawyer defending Xon Mobile against charges of 1388 01:18:42,000 --> 01:18:47,840 Speaker 1: misleading investors about the risks of climate change. Well, they 1389 01:18:47,880 --> 01:18:50,040 Speaker 1: picking on this guy. Even as Harvard has moved to 1390 01:18:50,080 --> 01:18:53,439 Speaker 1: investigate gifts made by sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, it has 1391 01:18:53,479 --> 01:18:56,160 Speaker 1: taken no action regarding the large gifts it gets from 1392 01:18:56,200 --> 01:19:00,880 Speaker 1: oil companies to fund much of its environmental programming in research. 1393 01:19:02,320 --> 01:19:05,559 Speaker 1: That's right, folks. These kids are saying, well, if you're 1394 01:19:05,560 --> 01:19:09,120 Speaker 1: gonna like not take money from a sex trafficking pedophile, 1395 01:19:09,600 --> 01:19:14,760 Speaker 1: then clearly you shouldn't take money from the largest corporations 1396 01:19:14,760 --> 01:19:20,840 Speaker 1: in the world that are doing incredibly important things for 1397 01:19:20,960 --> 01:19:24,439 Speaker 1: our day to day lives. My friends, millions and millions 1398 01:19:24,439 --> 01:19:27,360 Speaker 1: of people would die if we stop using fossil fuels tomorrow. 1399 01:19:27,400 --> 01:19:29,679 Speaker 1: Just under if we just said no more fossil fuels, 1400 01:19:30,640 --> 01:19:34,120 Speaker 1: the world is at risk. Millions of people would die. 1401 01:19:35,080 --> 01:19:38,719 Speaker 1: You would not have food production at levels to sustain 1402 01:19:38,800 --> 01:19:42,160 Speaker 1: the current global population. You would not have food transport, 1403 01:19:42,360 --> 01:19:45,719 Speaker 1: you would not have food refrigeration, you would not have product. 1404 01:19:45,920 --> 01:19:49,200 Speaker 1: Fifty percent of fossil fuel in this country that is 1405 01:19:49,360 --> 01:19:56,559 Speaker 1: used is used in the processes of making things. It's 1406 01:19:56,600 --> 01:19:58,760 Speaker 1: not just what goes into cars. People think, oh, we're 1407 01:19:58,760 --> 01:20:01,160 Speaker 1: all just gonna drive around and test flows and ride bicycles. 1408 01:20:01,160 --> 01:20:06,400 Speaker 1: People don't know anything. Half of the stuff that the 1409 01:20:07,000 --> 01:20:09,679 Speaker 1: fossil fuel industry is putting out there, or rather half 1410 01:20:09,680 --> 01:20:13,280 Speaker 1: of the usage of fossil fuels, is so that you 1411 01:20:13,280 --> 01:20:15,559 Speaker 1: you know, you can carry a supercomputer in your hand 1412 01:20:15,800 --> 01:20:18,519 Speaker 1: and go to a doctor's office that has all kinds 1413 01:20:18,560 --> 01:20:20,560 Speaker 1: of fancy computers to look at you and scan you 1414 01:20:20,600 --> 01:20:22,080 Speaker 1: and make sure you're healthy and fine. Then you go 1415 01:20:22,120 --> 01:20:24,760 Speaker 1: to a supermarket that is so bountiful, has so much 1416 01:20:24,760 --> 01:20:26,799 Speaker 1: food from all over the world that your biggest problem 1417 01:20:26,840 --> 01:20:28,880 Speaker 1: is limiting how much food you eat. That's true for 1418 01:20:28,960 --> 01:20:31,800 Speaker 1: most of us now in this country where we have 1419 01:20:31,920 --> 01:20:34,920 Speaker 1: diseases of excess. Our problems are of food excess. This 1420 01:20:35,000 --> 01:20:39,080 Speaker 1: is because of the advanced modern economy that we have. 1421 01:20:39,160 --> 01:20:41,840 Speaker 1: We only have it because of fossil fuels. We are 1422 01:20:41,920 --> 01:20:46,599 Speaker 1: naturally decarbonizing. There is less and less CO two from 1423 01:20:46,640 --> 01:20:50,519 Speaker 1: the technologies that are coming online. But to try and 1424 01:20:50,760 --> 01:20:53,120 Speaker 1: jump to try to great leap forward this and I'm 1425 01:20:53,200 --> 01:20:57,400 Speaker 1: using that intentionally to try to five yeared plan. The 1426 01:20:57,560 --> 01:21:04,400 Speaker 1: natural process of decarbonization in our fuel is so wildly 1427 01:21:04,479 --> 01:21:09,879 Speaker 1: catastrophically stupid. But these kids, these universities have created little monsters. 1428 01:21:11,080 --> 01:21:14,360 Speaker 1: They're eighteens. They don't know anything. I was a very 1429 01:21:14,760 --> 01:21:19,040 Speaker 1: wise and eighteen year old. I didn't know anything. These 1430 01:21:19,120 --> 01:21:21,200 Speaker 1: kids are running over. Maybe they're I think they're sophomores, 1431 01:21:21,240 --> 01:21:24,719 Speaker 1: maybe they're nineteen. Sorry, the ones writing senatorial making demands 1432 01:21:24,760 --> 01:21:26,880 Speaker 1: about where the university is going to invest its money. 1433 01:21:26,920 --> 01:21:29,960 Speaker 1: And you know, naming and shaming people because they're lawyers, 1434 01:21:30,000 --> 01:21:31,800 Speaker 1: who I guess they do't understand how the legal system 1435 01:21:31,800 --> 01:21:33,400 Speaker 1: works as country. Either. You can't be a lawyer that's 1436 01:21:33,400 --> 01:21:36,080 Speaker 1: defending a client, a corporate client. Now you're that means 1437 01:21:36,080 --> 01:21:42,680 Speaker 1: that you should be kicked out of polite society. I 1438 01:21:42,720 --> 01:21:44,600 Speaker 1: think one of the issues here is is even if 1439 01:21:44,600 --> 01:21:49,280 Speaker 1: you could get people to get beyond the religious fervor 1440 01:21:49,320 --> 01:21:53,120 Speaker 1: that they have around climate change, they can ever back 1441 01:21:53,160 --> 01:21:56,879 Speaker 1: away from this because they would have to feel really stupid. 1442 01:21:58,200 --> 01:22:04,080 Speaker 1: They would have to feel like they've been swindled, they've 1443 01:22:04,080 --> 01:22:10,760 Speaker 1: been fooled, because they have. They have been fooled. They've 1444 01:22:10,760 --> 01:22:18,120 Speaker 1: been sold this bill of goods. They've been completely fraudulently 1445 01:22:18,360 --> 01:22:20,920 Speaker 1: brought into this idea that the world is going to end, 1446 01:22:21,600 --> 01:22:24,000 Speaker 1: and they've taken action on it. And they will even 1447 01:22:24,120 --> 01:22:29,080 Speaker 1: stop a football game from happening for an hour to dry. 1448 01:22:29,320 --> 01:22:31,479 Speaker 1: Did they think that they're winning any hearts and minds 1449 01:22:31,479 --> 01:22:35,120 Speaker 1: with this campaign? They're really gonna force people. They're gonna 1450 01:22:35,120 --> 01:22:37,920 Speaker 1: they're gonna try to use force. They're gonna bend them 1451 01:22:37,960 --> 01:22:43,000 Speaker 1: to their will so they won't so they will divest 1452 01:22:43,040 --> 01:22:46,480 Speaker 1: from the fossil fuel to divest from the fossil fuel industry. 1453 01:22:46,680 --> 01:22:48,240 Speaker 1: I wish I could sit down and speak to these 1454 01:22:48,320 --> 01:22:52,160 Speaker 1: little imbeciles. To divest from the fossil fuel industry would 1455 01:22:52,200 --> 01:22:58,240 Speaker 1: mean divesting from every major corporation, every major company. Actually, 1456 01:22:58,479 --> 01:23:02,479 Speaker 1: scratch that, pretty much every company in the world. They 1457 01:23:02,479 --> 01:23:05,360 Speaker 1: wouldn't have lights, they wouldn't have electricity, they wouldn't be 1458 01:23:05,400 --> 01:23:08,639 Speaker 1: able to get deliveries. They wouldn't they wouldn't be able 1459 01:23:08,680 --> 01:23:12,479 Speaker 1: to have the work force show up. How do you 1460 01:23:12,560 --> 01:23:18,320 Speaker 1: divest from the fossil fuel industry. Our entire economy runs 1461 01:23:18,600 --> 01:23:23,519 Speaker 1: on power, on energy. Without it, we're just human beings 1462 01:23:23,560 --> 01:23:26,240 Speaker 1: trying to do things with our hands and simple tools. 1463 01:23:26,400 --> 01:23:29,880 Speaker 1: That's not how the world works anymore. The lights that 1464 01:23:29,920 --> 01:23:34,439 Speaker 1: we have, the climate control inside our office, all these 1465 01:23:34,439 --> 01:23:36,559 Speaker 1: things are only possible because of fossil If you're going 1466 01:23:36,600 --> 01:23:40,000 Speaker 1: to divest in the fossil fuel industry, this is like 1467 01:23:40,120 --> 01:23:45,400 Speaker 1: saying you better divest from using money or else. You know, 1468 01:23:45,439 --> 01:23:48,080 Speaker 1: we're gonna just keep shutting things down. Only barter is 1469 01:23:48,080 --> 01:23:50,120 Speaker 1: allowed because money is the source of all evil. You 1470 01:23:50,160 --> 01:23:53,120 Speaker 1: can only trade things now, you know, if you want bacon, 1471 01:23:53,200 --> 01:23:55,400 Speaker 1: you better show up with a pig, or rather show 1472 01:23:55,479 --> 01:23:58,880 Speaker 1: up with you know pineapples that you're going to trade 1473 01:23:58,880 --> 01:24:00,719 Speaker 1: for the pig. You're not allowed to use money anymore. 1474 01:24:01,720 --> 01:24:06,559 Speaker 1: That's how stupid this is divesting from fossil fuels. Because 1475 01:24:06,720 --> 01:24:08,680 Speaker 1: if you're divesting from fossil fuel because you're opposed to 1476 01:24:08,680 --> 01:24:10,679 Speaker 1: fossil fuels, then you should also divest from the companies 1477 01:24:10,680 --> 01:24:12,360 Speaker 1: that rely on and then use it all the time, 1478 01:24:13,640 --> 01:24:16,960 Speaker 1: which you could never do. So why are you punishing that? 1479 01:24:17,080 --> 01:24:19,000 Speaker 1: We're trying to punish those companies. Why are you trying 1480 01:24:19,000 --> 01:24:22,000 Speaker 1: to lower investment in them when they're already doing what 1481 01:24:22,040 --> 01:24:23,919 Speaker 1: they say they want them to do, which is established 1482 01:24:23,920 --> 01:24:28,120 Speaker 1: new technologies, most of the advancement. Trust me, if Exonmobile 1483 01:24:28,800 --> 01:24:32,000 Speaker 1: found a way to start using sunlight to generate all 1484 01:24:32,000 --> 01:24:37,280 Speaker 1: of our power, they would do it. But it's not 1485 01:24:37,360 --> 01:24:40,880 Speaker 1: there yet. It's not there yet. This is this is 1486 01:24:40,920 --> 01:24:45,760 Speaker 1: the tyranny of stupid brats. Maybe we'd call a show 1487 01:24:45,800 --> 01:24:50,320 Speaker 1: that today, the tyranny of stupid brats. That's what's going 1488 01:24:50,360 --> 01:24:51,840 Speaker 1: on it. What do you think? I kind of like it. 1489 01:24:52,560 --> 01:24:55,400 Speaker 1: That's what's going on at Harvard and Yale. Listen to us, 1490 01:24:55,520 --> 01:24:58,200 Speaker 1: or else we'll ruin your foot. I'm sure people traveled 1491 01:24:58,200 --> 01:25:02,000 Speaker 1: out there, probably you know, with family members from AFAR, 1492 01:25:02,080 --> 01:25:04,280 Speaker 1: it's a big deal. With people from the Harvard Yale community. 1493 01:25:04,280 --> 01:25:05,439 Speaker 1: I know, we can all sit around and make fun 1494 01:25:05,479 --> 01:25:07,479 Speaker 1: of them, and it's mostly because, you know, a lot 1495 01:25:07,479 --> 01:25:09,080 Speaker 1: of us didn't get into Harvard Yale, so we've got 1496 01:25:09,120 --> 01:25:12,439 Speaker 1: a little spite toward those schools. But at the end 1497 01:25:12,479 --> 01:25:15,360 Speaker 1: of the day, they've done nothing to advance their cause, 1498 01:25:16,120 --> 01:25:22,000 Speaker 1: and they've just really shown us how really vain and 1499 01:25:22,200 --> 01:25:27,519 Speaker 1: self important these climate activists are. They don't care about 1500 01:25:27,600 --> 01:25:31,000 Speaker 1: your day. They don't care what needs you have. They're 1501 01:25:31,000 --> 01:25:33,960 Speaker 1: gonna get their way or they're gonna ruin your day. 1502 01:25:34,200 --> 01:25:37,559 Speaker 1: They're gonna ruin your afternoon. That's how certain they are 1503 01:25:37,560 --> 01:25:38,960 Speaker 1: of their cause. They don't know any of that science. 1504 01:25:39,240 --> 01:25:42,280 Speaker 1: They have no background on this, they don't understand the economy, 1505 01:25:42,320 --> 01:25:45,960 Speaker 1: and they certainly don't show any gratitude to the system 1506 01:25:46,000 --> 01:25:48,840 Speaker 1: we have that allows them to live stream on the 1507 01:25:48,920 --> 01:25:54,000 Speaker 1: supercomputers they have in their hands, the nonsense virtue signaling 1508 01:25:54,000 --> 01:25:57,080 Speaker 1: they engage in the middle of this football stadium. They 1509 01:25:57,120 --> 01:25:59,880 Speaker 1: seem to have no problem with any of that being 1510 01:26:00,080 --> 01:26:03,559 Speaker 1: only possible because of fossil fuels. They don't get that, 1511 01:26:03,560 --> 01:26:06,360 Speaker 1: they don't understand that there's a lot of things I 1512 01:26:06,360 --> 01:26:08,559 Speaker 1: don't understand. Maybe they should try teaching kids real stuff 1513 01:26:08,560 --> 01:26:10,439 Speaker 1: at Harvard and Yale, now, you know, maybe they should 1514 01:26:10,439 --> 01:26:13,360 Speaker 1: say they should a lot of these schools they should 1515 01:26:13,360 --> 01:26:18,559 Speaker 1: have radical curriculum redos because it all just is a 1516 01:26:18,600 --> 01:26:20,360 Speaker 1: game to see who can get good grades and then 1517 01:26:20,360 --> 01:26:22,120 Speaker 1: who can get a certain kind of job. It's it's 1518 01:26:22,120 --> 01:26:24,720 Speaker 1: not about learning, it's not about expanding mind. It's not 1519 01:26:24,760 --> 01:26:28,960 Speaker 1: about the life of the mind or intellectual exchange and 1520 01:26:29,400 --> 01:26:31,400 Speaker 1: searching for the certainly not about searching for the truth. 1521 01:26:31,560 --> 01:26:35,240 Speaker 1: You know, universities you just become little indoctrination factories for 1522 01:26:36,040 --> 01:26:39,680 Speaker 1: left wing automatons, and then they stamped this degree on them. 1523 01:26:39,800 --> 01:26:41,400 Speaker 1: Though I must be so smart. I went to Harvard, 1524 01:26:41,439 --> 01:26:45,840 Speaker 1: I know. I know idiots a plenty who graduated from 1525 01:26:46,080 --> 01:26:49,280 Speaker 1: name a school that's fancy, and I can think of 1526 01:26:49,360 --> 01:26:51,800 Speaker 1: people I know went there who didn't get in because 1527 01:26:51,800 --> 01:26:54,200 Speaker 1: they're so smart, and aren't so smart because they went there. 1528 01:26:55,160 --> 01:27:02,559 Speaker 1: The Climate change kids guarantee you not very smart. Team Bucking, 1529 01:27:03,080 --> 01:27:14,400 Speaker 1: it's time for roll call. I'm gonna get to role 1530 01:27:14,400 --> 01:27:15,840 Speaker 1: call team because I know that's your time and I 1531 01:27:16,120 --> 01:27:18,160 Speaker 1: don't want to take time from the team. But I 1532 01:27:18,479 --> 01:27:21,200 Speaker 1: did have to note that there was a over the 1533 01:27:21,320 --> 01:27:24,680 Speaker 1: over the weekend, there was a tweet that went kind 1534 01:27:24,720 --> 01:27:28,479 Speaker 1: of viral about bad food takes. What was interesting was 1535 01:27:28,479 --> 01:27:31,280 Speaker 1: first of all, to see or sorry, controversial food takes. 1536 01:27:31,280 --> 01:27:34,840 Speaker 1: What I mean to say, controversial food takes. And the 1537 01:27:34,840 --> 01:27:37,200 Speaker 1: most interesting one was that there was a never Trumper, 1538 01:27:37,280 --> 01:27:40,280 Speaker 1: a former conservative who now will vote for Democrats, who 1539 01:27:40,360 --> 01:27:43,120 Speaker 1: said that he thought that Indian food was was garbage. 1540 01:27:43,600 --> 01:27:48,920 Speaker 1: And he's a white guy, and he got Chulist pummeled 1541 01:27:48,960 --> 01:27:51,880 Speaker 1: by the social justice left for that. It's racist to 1542 01:27:51,880 --> 01:27:54,360 Speaker 1: say you don't like Anian food if you're if you're 1543 01:27:54,360 --> 01:27:56,280 Speaker 1: a white guy, I'd never That's a new one. I 1544 01:27:56,320 --> 01:27:59,120 Speaker 1: didn't know. Now we're at food taste is a function 1545 01:27:59,439 --> 01:28:03,120 Speaker 1: of social justice as well. But I want to know, 1546 01:28:03,160 --> 01:28:04,840 Speaker 1: producer Mark, you have a contravert. But first of all, 1547 01:28:04,880 --> 01:28:06,479 Speaker 1: you look at you want to say something just about that. 1548 01:28:06,600 --> 01:28:10,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't like mayonnaise. Does that mean I'm racist? No, 1549 01:28:10,560 --> 01:28:12,840 Speaker 1: because that's not that doesn't belong to anything. I don't know. 1550 01:28:13,360 --> 01:28:15,920 Speaker 1: Actually I think mayonnaise if it's kind of probably like 1551 01:28:15,960 --> 01:28:19,200 Speaker 1: a North American. You know, I just named the food 1552 01:28:19,200 --> 01:28:22,080 Speaker 1: I don't like like ridiculous. What is what is your 1553 01:28:22,120 --> 01:28:26,200 Speaker 1: most controversial Oh? I hate peanut butter, like despise it. 1554 01:28:26,680 --> 01:28:28,800 Speaker 1: I think it's the worst thing in the world. That is, 1555 01:28:29,040 --> 01:28:31,080 Speaker 1: even the smell of peanut butter will make me want 1556 01:28:31,080 --> 01:28:35,280 Speaker 1: to vomit. That's a surprise, all right. I actually prefer 1557 01:28:35,280 --> 01:28:37,000 Speaker 1: almond butter, which I know it's a little little fruit 1558 01:28:37,000 --> 01:28:39,920 Speaker 1: fruit of me. I'm not that you know. The probably 1559 01:28:39,920 --> 01:28:41,800 Speaker 1: with peanut butter is that it's good, and then if 1560 01:28:41,800 --> 01:28:43,559 Speaker 1: you eat three spoonfuls of it, then if you realize 1561 01:28:43,560 --> 01:28:45,799 Speaker 1: you basically had like all your calories for the day. Yeah, 1562 01:28:45,840 --> 01:28:47,519 Speaker 1: it's like, if you want to get fat, you just 1563 01:28:47,520 --> 01:28:49,080 Speaker 1: sit there and eat peanut butter, you'll be good to go. 1564 01:28:49,360 --> 01:28:52,439 Speaker 1: Like cookie butter from Trader Joe's a little cookie butter? 1565 01:28:52,520 --> 01:28:56,920 Speaker 1: What's that delicious cookie butter? Yeah? Is it butter made 1566 01:28:56,920 --> 01:29:00,280 Speaker 1: from cookies? Yeah? Basically I don't know what a technic is, 1567 01:29:00,320 --> 01:29:03,280 Speaker 1: but it's delicious. That sounds kind of fantastic. Brandon, do 1568 01:29:03,320 --> 01:29:05,040 Speaker 1: you have a Do you have a controversial food take 1569 01:29:05,080 --> 01:29:07,240 Speaker 1: you want to share with us? I think the only 1570 01:29:07,280 --> 01:29:08,800 Speaker 1: thing is that I have a palette of a ten 1571 01:29:08,880 --> 01:29:11,280 Speaker 1: year old, So you know, when you talk about meats. 1572 01:29:11,320 --> 01:29:14,240 Speaker 1: I just like my hamburger with ketchup and that's it. 1573 01:29:14,360 --> 01:29:18,800 Speaker 1: Maybe cheese and one of those. Yeah, I eat like again, 1574 01:29:18,880 --> 01:29:21,280 Speaker 1: like I'm in kindergarten or something. I know other people 1575 01:29:21,280 --> 01:29:23,560 Speaker 1: like that. They only eat burgers with like nothing and 1576 01:29:23,720 --> 01:29:26,120 Speaker 1: ice cream and they don't like you know, there's no 1577 01:29:26,240 --> 01:29:30,240 Speaker 1: veggies they like and yeah, or I like pickles on 1578 01:29:30,280 --> 01:29:32,960 Speaker 1: the side, but if it's on my hamburger, I want 1579 01:29:32,960 --> 01:29:35,760 Speaker 1: to throw up. Oh wow, Okay, it's weird. Yeah, well 1580 01:29:35,760 --> 01:29:37,680 Speaker 1: that's not good. That's not how that happened. Yeah, I 1581 01:29:37,720 --> 01:29:40,240 Speaker 1: would just say my controversial food too well. People listen 1582 01:29:40,280 --> 01:29:42,520 Speaker 1: to the show know that I hate sun dried tomatoes. 1583 01:29:43,080 --> 01:29:45,320 Speaker 1: I think they ruin everything. I think they should be banned, 1584 01:29:45,680 --> 01:29:47,799 Speaker 1: the same way that Bloomberg wants to ban big drinks 1585 01:29:47,840 --> 01:29:49,720 Speaker 1: with the you know, too much sugar in them. We 1586 01:29:49,720 --> 01:29:52,000 Speaker 1: should just ban sun dried tomatoes. That's just such a 1587 01:29:52,160 --> 01:29:56,280 Speaker 1: random thing. Just ban them. Just believe all the foods 1588 01:29:56,280 --> 01:30:00,639 Speaker 1: in the world you specifically dislike sun dried tomatoes. Regular 1589 01:30:00,640 --> 01:30:03,800 Speaker 1: tomatoes are fine. I think it's sweetbreads only exist because 1590 01:30:03,840 --> 01:30:06,400 Speaker 1: they're called sweetbreads and people are too embarrassed because they 1591 01:30:06,520 --> 01:30:08,720 Speaker 1: order them not knowing what they are, and then no 1592 01:30:08,720 --> 01:30:10,720 Speaker 1: one ever says to the chef, don't ever have this 1593 01:30:10,760 --> 01:30:12,920 Speaker 1: crap on the menu again, what do you mean by sweetbreads? 1594 01:30:12,920 --> 01:30:17,439 Speaker 1: Sweetbreads are it's animal organ meat, basically organ in. Yeah, 1595 01:30:17,439 --> 01:30:19,520 Speaker 1: you go to a fancy restaurant, they'll they'll have sweetbreads 1596 01:30:19,560 --> 01:30:22,720 Speaker 1: sometimes on there. I thought you meant sweet bread No, no, no, 1597 01:30:22,920 --> 01:30:26,160 Speaker 1: sweetbreads is a it's like intestines or some kind of 1598 01:30:26,160 --> 01:30:28,920 Speaker 1: why you eat that liver or something I don't know. Also, 1599 01:30:29,040 --> 01:30:30,840 Speaker 1: all that like liver is gross too. I don't think 1600 01:30:30,840 --> 01:30:34,280 Speaker 1: no one really, no one really. My grandmother loved tongue. 1601 01:30:35,040 --> 01:30:38,680 Speaker 1: Some people eat that. Yeah, squab, you guse like a 1602 01:30:38,720 --> 01:30:41,160 Speaker 1: little pigeon. That's gross. By the way, it does not 1603 01:30:41,240 --> 01:30:44,519 Speaker 1: taste does not taste good. So um, yeah, I'm just saying. 1604 01:30:44,760 --> 01:30:46,000 Speaker 1: Of the food takes, I think the only one that 1605 01:30:46,040 --> 01:30:48,560 Speaker 1: I would have that's controversial, I don't think peanut but 1606 01:30:48,600 --> 01:30:49,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm actually kind of with you. I don't 1607 01:30:49,680 --> 01:30:51,479 Speaker 1: think peanut butter and jelly is that good. I don't 1608 01:30:51,479 --> 01:30:53,080 Speaker 1: know why people think it's such a great sandwich. I 1609 01:30:53,080 --> 01:30:56,080 Speaker 1: think there's way better combinations and peanut butter and jelly. 1610 01:30:56,280 --> 01:30:59,160 Speaker 1: I can't comment because I hate peanuts. If you offer me, 1611 01:30:59,200 --> 01:31:01,240 Speaker 1: if you offer me a real cheese or peanut butter 1612 01:31:01,280 --> 01:31:03,320 Speaker 1: and jelly grilled cheese, every day, cheese is a far 1613 01:31:03,360 --> 01:31:06,800 Speaker 1: superior sandwich. Yeah, there's no question about this. So I 1614 01:31:07,040 --> 01:31:10,519 Speaker 1: just feel like that's uh, that's one. Oh. I guess 1615 01:31:10,520 --> 01:31:12,800 Speaker 1: maybe because I can't eat gluten, but I've gotten us this. 1616 01:31:13,160 --> 01:31:16,479 Speaker 1: I think that most hamburgers are ruined by their buns. 1617 01:31:17,040 --> 01:31:19,760 Speaker 1: I think bad hamburger bun is way more common than 1618 01:31:19,760 --> 01:31:21,919 Speaker 1: people realize. You can even have a pretty good hamburger, 1619 01:31:22,080 --> 01:31:23,720 Speaker 1: and if you have a bad bun, especially if it's 1620 01:31:23,720 --> 01:31:26,680 Speaker 1: really big and doughey and chewy, then your hamburger is 1621 01:31:26,720 --> 01:31:28,840 Speaker 1: in bad shape. You're right, A good bun makes a 1622 01:31:28,840 --> 01:31:30,880 Speaker 1: better burger. You want a good You know what I 1623 01:31:30,960 --> 01:31:34,559 Speaker 1: learned recently appropriate size? Yes, I agree. I learned recently 1624 01:31:34,560 --> 01:31:38,040 Speaker 1: about pizza. Sesame seeds on a pizza crust makes it 1625 01:31:38,080 --> 01:31:40,600 Speaker 1: ten times better.

Oh, okay, walk away is about 1770 01:39:23,960 --> 01:39:26,560 Speaker 1: people from the gay community leaving the Democrat Party. And 1771 01:39:26,560 --> 01:39:29,400 Speaker 1: I guess blexit is members of the black community who 1772 01:39:29,400 --> 01:39:32,120 Speaker 1: are leaving a Democratic Party. I believe that is the case. 1773 01:39:32,600 --> 01:39:34,519 Speaker 1: But thank you, Cindy. I didn't know that. I'd never 1774 01:39:34,560 --> 01:39:38,360 Speaker 1: heard of Walkaway. Really, I mean I heard of it, 1775 01:39:38,360 --> 01:39:39,840 Speaker 1: but I didn't really know what it was about. All Right, 1776 01:39:39,880 --> 01:39:48,000 Speaker 1: And we're back in our role call zone, Tyler Buck, 1777 01:39:48,000 --> 01:39:50,200 Speaker 1: Are you seeing what's going on at Moho Pack, New York? 1778 01:39:50,240 --> 01:39:52,320 Speaker 1: The police are laying siege to a man for possession 1779 01:39:52,320 --> 01:39:56,760 Speaker 1: of thirty round magazines. Tyler, I did not see that, 1780 01:39:56,840 --> 01:39:59,120 Speaker 1: but it would not surprise me. Man. Every time one 1781 01:39:59,160 --> 01:40:02,600 Speaker 1: of these laws passed is where they start mandating changes 1782 01:40:02,680 --> 01:40:08,639 Speaker 1: to what is a legally permissible magazine. You know, different 1783 01:40:08,800 --> 01:40:11,640 Speaker 1: rail systems not allowed on guns. There are certain firearms 1784 01:40:11,640 --> 01:40:16,320 Speaker 1: will be banned. Anytime that happens. There are going to 1785 01:40:16,360 --> 01:40:20,280 Speaker 1: be these cases that come up where people are are 1786 01:40:20,320 --> 01:40:22,439 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, they're gonna make examples of you. 1787 01:40:22,479 --> 01:40:27,839 Speaker 1: They're gonna make an example of you if you don't comply, 1788 01:40:27,960 --> 01:40:30,080 Speaker 1: if you don't submit, And I think that that's something 1789 01:40:30,120 --> 01:40:31,800 Speaker 1: that we all need to keep in mind here, that 1790 01:40:31,840 --> 01:40:35,320 Speaker 1: there will be people who are punished, who lose their freedom, 1791 01:40:35,360 --> 01:40:37,600 Speaker 1: who gets into prison even because of all of this. 1792 01:40:37,800 --> 01:40:40,840 Speaker 1: So there you have it. I will check that out, 1793 01:40:40,840 --> 01:40:42,120 Speaker 1: though I did not see it. Did you see this 1794 01:40:42,120 --> 01:40:44,360 Speaker 1: in Mahopac? Do you guys know? No? Yeah, I didn't 1795 01:40:44,360 --> 01:40:47,120 Speaker 1: see that one. Sorry. Sometimes sometimes it slips past the 1796 01:40:47,160 --> 01:40:51,080 Speaker 1: buck radar, and that's a thing that I will watch 1797 01:40:51,080 --> 01:40:53,519 Speaker 1: out for in the future, Anthony. But you know what 1798 01:40:53,560 --> 01:40:54,880 Speaker 1: was pretty good of the weekend. By the way, I 1799 01:40:54,880 --> 01:40:59,160 Speaker 1: saw the first episode of The Spy with Sasha Baron 1800 01:40:59,200 --> 01:41:03,080 Speaker 1: Cohen who played Alig and Borat. It's good. I would 1801 01:41:03,080 --> 01:41:05,080 Speaker 1: recommend it to you, gentlemen, recommend the folks at home too. 1802 01:41:05,120 --> 01:41:08,280 Speaker 1: I would say, I was he played Borat in Borat? 1803 01:41:08,840 --> 01:41:12,960 Speaker 1: Didn't I say that? You said he played Alig? Oh? Sorry, 1804 01:41:12,960 --> 01:41:15,240 Speaker 1: I didn't hear that Parton get back to making the show, 1805 01:41:16,280 --> 01:41:22,240 Speaker 1: get back to making us actually send the things to 1806 01:41:22,360 --> 01:41:24,840 Speaker 1: across the country. The audio. There we go. That's what 1807 01:41:24,880 --> 01:41:27,759 Speaker 1: I'm trying to think of. See, even if the captain 1808 01:41:27,800 --> 01:41:30,000 Speaker 1: comes in, you know, if he leaves that this can 1809 01:41:31,400 --> 01:41:34,280 Speaker 1: an Iceberg. Because I'm over here playing the violin. It's 1810 01:41:34,400 --> 01:41:38,360 Speaker 1: on him. I'm just saying, we don't hit an Iceberg. Well, 1811 01:41:38,360 --> 01:41:40,920 Speaker 1: did you alle steering? I'm just I'm just making the noise. 1812 01:41:41,080 --> 01:41:43,960 Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just the entertainment. He's the one steering 1813 01:41:44,000 --> 01:41:47,680 Speaker 1: the ship, Anthony. How is it possible for Dams to 1814 01:41:47,680 --> 01:41:51,160 Speaker 1: denounce the Syria pull out as abandoning the Kurds, but 1815 01:41:51,240 --> 01:41:56,200 Speaker 1: when Obama did not support the Ukrainians, there's radio silence. 1816 01:41:56,320 --> 01:41:58,280 Speaker 1: I know the answer. I am just saying, well, you 1817 01:41:58,320 --> 01:42:00,320 Speaker 1: do know the answer. The answer is that there are 1818 01:42:00,320 --> 01:42:06,320 Speaker 1: different standards applied to Democrats and Republicans. Trump is better, 1819 01:42:06,520 --> 01:42:10,120 Speaker 1: has been better on Ukraine than his predecessor was. And 1820 01:42:10,200 --> 01:42:12,519 Speaker 1: yet we keep getting told by the media that one 1821 01:42:12,520 --> 01:42:15,000 Speaker 1: of the reasons we must get rid of President Trump 1822 01:42:15,120 --> 01:42:18,200 Speaker 1: is because he abandoned the Ukrainians. But he did not. 1823 01:42:18,360 --> 01:42:20,519 Speaker 1: In fact, he did the opposite of abandoning them if 1824 01:42:20,560 --> 01:42:23,479 Speaker 1: you look at what has really happened. But they don't 1825 01:42:23,479 --> 01:42:25,599 Speaker 1: want to look at what really happened. They'd rather they 1826 01:42:25,640 --> 01:42:30,240 Speaker 1: would prefer to continue on with the propaganda from their 1827 01:42:30,280 --> 01:42:32,719 Speaker 1: side that this president must be removed, that he's terrible, 1828 01:42:32,720 --> 01:42:36,760 Speaker 1: that he's evil, that he's the meanest man ever, and 1829 01:42:36,880 --> 01:42:41,240 Speaker 1: it is not true. Let's see what we have here, 1830 01:42:41,479 --> 01:42:45,639 Speaker 1: Rod Buck love the show and never miss a podcast.

It's 1834 01:42:52,680 --> 01:42:55,400 Speaker 1: really really annoying. Doesn't happen with any of the other 1835 01:42:55,400 --> 01:42:58,000 Speaker 1: podcasts I listen to the same platform.

The customer is always right, and you 1842 01:43:18,439 --> 01:43:20,760 Speaker 1: are the customer.
