1 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:05,240 Speaker 1: Yes, we are back on nor Show with nor Horse 2 00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:07,480 Speaker 1: Takes for whom the news gets weird. I am Mary 3 00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:08,240 Speaker 1: Catherine Ham. 4 00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:11,640 Speaker 2: And I'm Carol Markovitz and him Mary Catherine. We are 5 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:15,600 Speaker 2: recording this after another very calm, chill weekend. 6 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:21,159 Speaker 1: Nobody can ever chill, will let us rest, They will not, 7 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:24,840 Speaker 1: And here we are to catch up on just like 8 00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:27,720 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, two. 9 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:31,000 Speaker 2: Things, yeah, some things, you know, some things have happened. 10 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:33,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, oh yeah. 11 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:39,400 Speaker 2: So since we last spoke, Israel has attacked Iran and 12 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 2: it's going very well so far. You know, Israel very 13 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 2: quickly said this is not going to be a quick thing. 14 00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 2: After the first attack, they were asked like, is this it? 15 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 2: They said, this is not even the end of the beginning. 16 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 2: They see this as being war, not just strikes. And 17 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,039 Speaker 2: you know, the night that it all went down. So 18 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 2: one of the funnier things about it, about an hour 19 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 2: before the strikes began, Mike Kokabe, who is ambassador to 20 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 2: Israel from the US, tweeted that he would be remaining 21 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,840 Speaker 2: at the embassy in Jerusalem, and everyone was like, why 22 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 2: are you tweeting this at us in the middle of 23 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 2: the night, Mike Hookabe. Yeah, So it was clear it 24 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 2: was happening. Now, I am not a foreign policy expert. 25 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 2: I know this doesn't stop people from pretending they are 26 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 2: on X, but I follow it closely obviously, but I 27 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 2: could not possibly call myself an expert in the field. However, 28 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 2: that night, the rumor that spread on X was that 29 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 2: Trump didn't know about this, Yeah, knowing absolutely nothing about 30 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 2: what was going on. I responded that, like, obviously, Israel's 31 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 2: doing this without the United States kind of permission, Yes, 32 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 2: and it was. Trump has said that I ran had 33 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 2: sixty days to reach an agreement. It was day sixty one. 34 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 2: This kind of thing, it just it drives me bananas 35 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 2: because these people have followings on X that say things 36 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 2: that we all know are not true and that we 37 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 2: can't be true. It really does make me crazy. 38 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: So yeah, it's it is frustrating, and the immediate jump 39 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: to petty domestic politics, which look, yeah, is part of 40 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,119 Speaker 1: my job. Petty domestic politics is what I've spend way 41 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: too much of my time on. Right, But in this case, 42 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 1: this is Israel going after an existential threat that frankly, 43 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 1: if they went nuclear, would affect everyone. Because this is 44 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: an insane and awful regime, right, and so to turn 45 00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: it into like, ooh, they embarrass President Trump as a 46 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: sort of domestic politics victory is a silly because it's 47 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: not true, and he just sort of like makes you 48 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 1: look very small because it's not about that. And look, 49 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: I don't think that this would have happened under Biden, 50 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 1: because I think Biden would have been saying openly, or 51 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,639 Speaker 1: a Harris administration certainly would have been saying openly, oh no, no, no, 52 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 1: you're not allowed to do any of that. Under a 53 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: Trump administration, they've talked behind the scenes. And although I 54 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: was worried about Steve Whitkoff making deals shared with the 55 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: Iranians because I thought that didn't look like a good idea, 56 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: it seems clear to me that they probably look. I 57 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 1: think Trump likes deals. So Steve Witkoff goes in there, like, 58 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 1: we're going to make a deal. Trump's like, maybe we'll 59 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: make a deal. But he's serious about the deadline, and 60 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: he's serious about backing Israel up if they need to 61 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: do what they need to do. And so he did 62 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 1: the deadline. And here's the thing about passing the deadline 63 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: and then making good on a threat is that it 64 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 1: makes you a credible leader. Exactly to those who we 65 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 1: want to be scared of us. So it also means, 66 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: by the way, that so many of our friends in 67 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: Israel who I want to just send up prayers for 68 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: are in danger, many of them in bomb shelters or 69 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 1: in special parts of their houses to protect them from 70 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 1: Iranian ballistic missiles. But because of the military and intel 71 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 1: successes of Israel, which have been astounding over the past 72 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: year or so, fewer of those ballistic missiles are coming 73 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 1: in each time because they are able to target where 74 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 1: they're coming from and take those out. Amazing. 75 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, there, Iran is in this tough spot where Israel 76 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 2: keeps taking out their launchers every time they launch missiles, 77 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 2: but they can't not launch missiles, so you know, kind 78 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 2: of kind of a tough little spot for them. It's 79 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 2: going wildly well. There have been some deaths in Israel 80 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 2: which are very unfortunate obviously, also so any innocent Iranians 81 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 2: who are caught up in this. It's really desperately sad. 82 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 2: Iranian people have wanted to get rid of the mulahs 83 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:14,359 Speaker 2: for so long, but hopefully this will be a moment 84 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 2: where that can happen. Even you know, people who have 85 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 2: opposed this attack, like Tucker Carlson, for example, in the 86 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 2: days before the attack happened, he wrote this whole long thing, 87 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 2: and I'm not going to get into it, but basically 88 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 2: he said, if the Iranians were close to getting a nuke, 89 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 2: the United States would already be at war with them. 90 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 2: Why would we want that? Why would we as Americans 91 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 2: want them to get really close to getting a nuke 92 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 2: and that's when we would go to war with them. 93 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 2: This is a much cleaner, safer situation for Americans. I 94 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 2: don't understand how any American can oppose Israel doing this 95 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 2: in Iran because it helps us without us having to 96 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 2: have boots on the ground period. 97 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 1: Well, and I understand people being concerned. I don't want 98 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:01,799 Speaker 1: to be naive, but I am. There is this special 99 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 1: moment that we are in that because of Israel's incredible successes, 100 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 1: they sort of stood naked before the world. This program 101 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: and Iran's various sites didn't have the defenses that they 102 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,239 Speaker 1: would otherwise have, So it seemed like a good opportunity 103 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:25,160 Speaker 1: to add a relatively low cost, just like in general 104 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: of consequences and of retaliation, to go ahead and make 105 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: a serious dent in their situation. As you say, their 106 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: public is not exactly resoundingly behind them. Of course, a 107 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: lot would have to happen before the public rises up 108 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 1: and there's any sort of change. But I just you 109 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: don't have to be an expert to think, do I 110 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: want Iran to have nukes? And the answer is no. 111 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: And the Obama administration's plan for keeping them from nukes 112 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:58,039 Speaker 1: seemed to be paid let them get extremely close to 113 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 1: nukes and also give them lots of money to get 114 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,039 Speaker 1: which I confess I don't. 115 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, never made a lot of sense and didn't think 116 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,679 Speaker 2: that was strategy was going to work, and it hasn't. 117 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 2: So Also, Iran has not let in inspectors in a 118 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 2: long time. This idea that they're being so transparent and 119 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 2: oh look at israelis bombing them for no reason is ridiculous. 120 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 2: Iran cannot have a nuclear bomb. President Trump said that, 121 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 2: and we were hoping to get back at the negotiating table. 122 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 2: We will see, and then he added there are several 123 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 2: people in leadership that will not be coming back, which 124 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 2: is a perfect little Trump is. 125 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 1: He also said, when asked, like you knows how did 126 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: they die? Or they died because they were taken out by, 127 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: and he goes, well, they didn't I have COVID, and 128 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: I just he is a very funny president. 129 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 2: He is us. 130 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: He's a very funny president. Apparently, Iran is now signaling 131 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal reports that it would like to 132 00:07:56,320 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: de escalate hostilities and result resumed talks over its nuclear programs, 133 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: sending messages to Israel and the US via Arab intermediaries. 134 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: Middle Eastern and European officials said, oh what changed. I also, 135 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 1: I would like to note every Arab country quietly does 136 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 1: not want them to have nukes. They are not loud 137 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 1: about it, but they want this result. And they also 138 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: have backed up Israel by shooting many things out of 139 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: the air headed toward Israel, at least some of those 140 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 1: allied Arab countries. So even though it's like a little 141 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:35,959 Speaker 1: testy over there, they don't want Iran to have a 142 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: nuke either, right, Why would they? 143 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:41,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, it makes no sense. We'll be right back on normally. 144 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 2: Other news. This weekend, there was a shooting in Minnesota 145 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:55,959 Speaker 2: where a gunman killed Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and 146 00:08:56,040 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 2: her spouse, and he shot two other lawmakers. The gunman 147 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 2: is Van Spolter, I reported that first, thank you very 148 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:05,319 Speaker 2: much she did. 149 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 1: If you do not follow at Carol, you should because 150 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: she does break some news. 151 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 2: Sometimes I break news. It's very very scary whenever I do. 152 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 2: By the way, I don't recommend it. It's a very 153 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:20,960 Speaker 2: nerve wracking few minutes every time. Where I hope that 154 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 2: I got it right, I haven't correct. I haven't been 155 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 2: wrong yet. I had one time where I said a 156 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 2: jury decision was in and that hadn't become public yet, 157 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 2: but then the jury went back into deliberations, so it 158 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 2: seemed like I got it wrong. But other than that one, 159 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 2: I'm batting whatever the good batting averages. 160 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: Our girl is a good follower. But this terrible situation 161 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: is the fifty five year old Democratic leader in the 162 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: Minnesota House and her husband. They have children. I believe 163 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 1: he also shot their dog. It's just like the worst story. 164 00:09:55,920 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 1: He also the suspect also shot allegedly another lawmaker. It's 165 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: unclear exactly what the situation is right now. The Wall 166 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 1: Street Journal is reporting that this guy has really disparate employment, 167 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 1: sort of a very confusing career path ministry. They said 168 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: he works with some sort of eye donation company right 169 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 1: now and is also trying to get a security company 170 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: off the ground. He apparently has a family, but also 171 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 1: has roommates in another part of town. They did report 172 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: that he has been a preacher and is that specifically 173 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 1: worked with the Democratic Republic of Congo, which is an 174 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 1: interesting choice, and that he is a pro life person 175 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 1: that perhaps there's a list of abortion allies that he 176 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: had in his possession. He shoots both of these lawmakers. 177 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: I don't want to get over our skis because that's 178 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,959 Speaker 1: what the press always does in these situations and it's 179 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:59,439 Speaker 1: not healthy for anyone. But every single person should be 180 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: able to say this is the worst and we want 181 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: nothing to do with anyone who agrees with us doing 182 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:10,319 Speaker 1: anything like this, Unlike the Luigi situation, yep, I would 183 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,439 Speaker 1: just like to say that very loudly, right. 184 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 3: You're not like, well, maybe the right right, like I 185 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 3: wouldn't shoot people, but no, no, this is not doing 186 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 3: that wrong and we don't stand for it on normally. 187 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 1: Also, I would like to note that Senator John Hoffman 188 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 1: sixty and his wife, Yvette, who were also attacked. I 189 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:37,599 Speaker 1: believe Yvette shielded their daughter, like incredibly heroically. There was 190 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 1: a man hunt for this guy. He has been apprehended. 191 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 1: We will know more information. Apparently there's a manifesto. I 192 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 1: don't know if it will be released. Law enforcements seem 193 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,679 Speaker 1: to say not at this point. And also it sounds 194 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,559 Speaker 1: like someone that he was caught because someone saw him 195 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 1: on a trail camp. So way to go, hunters. Wow, 196 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: we appreciate it happened. 197 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 2: I didn't hear that. 198 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 1: Amazing, that is what I saw this morning. So anyway, 199 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: as always, we will be careful with such news unless 200 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:07,560 Speaker 1: someone is on tape and many witnesses saying this is 201 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 1: my motive. I am currently practicing that motive. I don't 202 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: like to say that until we're going. 203 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:15,679 Speaker 2: To give it a minute. That's right, Yeah, we're going 204 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 2: to take a short break and come right back with normally. 205 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 2: In other news, Donald Trump, you know when he's good. 206 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 2: He is very very good. My friend Cliff Asnis, who 207 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 2: is a big opponent of tariffs, after he tweeted this 208 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 2: after Trump said for those people who say they want peace, 209 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 2: you can't have peace if I Ran has a nuclear weapon. 210 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 2: So for all those wonderful people, you don't want to 211 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 2: do anything about I Ran having a nuclear weapon. That's 212 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:48,079 Speaker 2: not peace. And Cliff Astnes wrote DJT. You know, today 213 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 2: I'm thinking I can live with some tariffs, which is 214 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 2: really where we are on Trump, like he is so good. 215 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 2: And then other times I just don't understand this man. 216 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 2: And one of those times is these new carve outs 217 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 2: for people who are here illegally and have jobs and 218 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 2: in the farming and hotel and leisure businesses are getting 219 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 2: a carve out to not be deported. And I hate that. 220 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 2: I hate it. I hate it because there should be 221 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 2: no special carveouts. What about uber eats, what about you know, 222 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 2: any other number of businesses that rely on a class 223 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 2: of people that they don't have to pay minimum wage too, 224 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 2: you know, the people who are very worried about their 225 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 2: their maids and their gardeners and whatever, very very Yeah, 226 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 2: they're just like, what about my cleaning staff? What about 227 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:47,680 Speaker 2: their people? Right? So I really don't like this at all. 228 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 2: The other thing kind of related to this that he 229 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 2: reversed himself on is made a deal with China, subject 230 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,679 Speaker 2: to final approval. But one of the things was we 231 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,719 Speaker 2: agreed Chinese students using our colleges and university, which has 232 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:07,319 Speaker 2: always been good with me. He tweeted. I think that's 233 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 2: a problem. I think it's a real problem that China 234 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 2: can send anyone they want to our universities and we 235 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 2: really don't know who's coming in. And so it ties 236 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 2: really well with the illegal immigration problem because these special 237 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 2: carve outs do not help us and they don't lead 238 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 2: us to a good place. If you want to have 239 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 2: special workers and special industries, we have worker programs for that, 240 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 2: legal worker programs. We don't just overlook that these industries 241 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 2: have illegal immigrants working there and say, oh, well, they 242 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 2: need those immigrants, and that's just what we're going to 243 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 2: do here. So Donald Trump Man, I. 244 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 1: Know, well, and once again you're punishing people who obey 245 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 1: the law because it's much more expensive for them to 246 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 1: run their businesses because they're paying people minimum wage. I 247 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 1: love liberals, by the way, where it's like, we have 248 00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: to have a twenty dollars minimum wage, yeah, which will 249 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: crush the actual not black market economy, but for the 250 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 1: gray and black market where people are being paid off 251 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 1: the books, paying whatever you want two dollars an hour, 252 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 1: that seems fine with us. So it's a little weird 253 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 1: to me. I do think there's a way to achieve 254 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 1: basically not turning everyone off with the mass deportation effort 255 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 1: while also getting done a lot of work, which is 256 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 1: to do what he said he was going to do. 257 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 1: And the beauty and the annoyance about Trump is that 258 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 1: he'll say a thousand things. You can always say, well, 259 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 1: he said that. But look, prioritizing criminal aliens is very, 260 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: very very popular. Do that do targeted pickups? If there 261 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 1: are various industries that are more problematic than others, I 262 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: think those are worth sending a signal about it because 263 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: all the other parts of that industry have to go ooh, 264 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: should we. 265 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 2: Be doing this exactly? 266 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: And I just don't understand what part of the law 267 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 1: has been repealed, right, because to my knowledge none, it's 268 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: just still illegal to employ all these people. Yeah. By 269 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 1: the way, I remember the days when like one nanny 270 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 1: scandal would get somebody kicked out of it an administration. 271 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 2: Yes, do we even do that anymore? I think, Okay, 272 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 2: we just accept that everybody has a legal immigrant nannies. 273 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 1: You know, let's keep telling me. 274 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. I did a border trip last year now, and 275 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 2: one of the things that the agriculture worker that we 276 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 2: spoke to Holmes and agriculture business on the border of 277 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 2: Texas and Mexico was saying he does not hire anyone 278 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 2: who is here legally. But he also has a lot 279 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 2: of trouble with the guest worker program. They don't have 280 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 2: a good effective guests worker program. He often does not 281 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 2: have enough people. He also the whole idea, you know, 282 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 2: just pay more and you get Americans. He says, well, no, 283 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 2: because you have to live in this rural area where 284 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 2: are grown. And he says he has two Americans who 285 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 2: come every season to work for him, but it's very rare, 286 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,440 Speaker 2: very hard, and he would like to bring in more 287 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:13,159 Speaker 2: legal workers, and he has trouble doing that. And I 288 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,919 Speaker 2: don't think exempting farm markers is going to lead us 289 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 2: to having a better guest worker program, which Trump has 290 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 2: mentioned he wanted right he is. He has said he 291 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:26,960 Speaker 2: wants a better guest worker legal program. I think exempting 292 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 2: these illegal workers in these industries moves us farther away 293 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 2: from that goal. 294 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. By the way, while we're while we're airing grievances, 295 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,719 Speaker 1: I would like to point out that still TikTok should 296 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 1: not exist on American app markets right now according to 297 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 1: the law. However you feel about that law, the law 298 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 1: is not being obeyed and so interesting to me and 299 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 1: actually a good segue into our next topic, because this 300 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: is the almost the only thing that Trump is acting 301 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 1: like a king about. He is not enforcing this TikTok law. Yeah, 302 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: the left doesn't care because they really like TikTok, so. 303 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 2: Right doesn't matter. It's fine. Yeah, it's not a king here. 304 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, just want to note that the law is not 305 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 1: being followed on that he keeps saying I'm going to delay, 306 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:12,400 Speaker 1: and there's nothing in the law that says he's allowed 307 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 1: to delay. It just shouldn't be happening. 308 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 2: We'll be right back on. 309 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 1: Normally, the No Kings rallies happened all around the nation, 310 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:29,160 Speaker 1: reportedly about two thousand different sites. At the same time, 311 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,399 Speaker 1: the Army Parade was going on. Army two hundred and 312 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 1: fiftieth Birthday Parade was happening in Washington, d C. I 313 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 1: do want to point out that in my area, I 314 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:43,880 Speaker 1: ran across some No Kings protesters. They were all boomerirific ladies. 315 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: Like I was, like, it's hot outside today, everybody make 316 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 1: sure you hydrate. But we drove past a little crowd 317 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: and my kids said, and I don't talk to them 318 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 1: about politics a lot. We talk about civics, but we 319 00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,199 Speaker 1: don't talk about politics. Sure, And they asked about this 320 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: and they're like, what is that, No Kings, what is happening? 321 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: And I said, well, those are people who don't like 322 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 1: Donald Trump and this is their First Amendment right to 323 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,440 Speaker 1: protest him and say that they don't like him because 324 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: they believe he's acting like a king. And they said, 325 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 1: wasn't he elected in the election, And I said, yes, 326 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:20,640 Speaker 1: that is a salient point, ladies, that is a very 327 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,199 Speaker 1: unboldlike behavior. 328 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 2: Also, kings generally wouldn't allow no King protests on their streets. 329 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,359 Speaker 2: Just one of those things you hear about kings. We 330 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 2: also drove by a really small one in Coral Springs, Florida. 331 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 2: They were waving American flags and not blocking traffic, and 332 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 2: I just thought, even our leftists are better in Florida. 333 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that that may be. The are seemed 334 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: to be a short lived little protest near where we were. 335 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 1: I will say it did seem like they might have 336 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 1: gotten a little more patriotic over the past couple of 337 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: weeks when they saw how the LA stuff was landing. 338 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 2: Right and good for them, good good, Yeah, we was. 339 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: However, there was one death at a Salt Lake City, 340 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: no kings, And methinks that if conservatives gathered in two 341 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 1: thousand gatherings and there were one murder, that that would 342 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 1: be a huge national story, but it's rather small at 343 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 1: any rate. That was a it was a weird situation 344 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: where a guy with a rifle showed up, was charging people, 345 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: and a peacekeeper, a designated peacekeeper inside the crowd shot 346 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 1: at the assailant and miss hit a bystander, which is 347 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 1: just terrible. But the guy with the original guy with 348 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 1: the rifle is being charged. So that happened at the parade, 349 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 1: which was supposed to be the fascistic display on the 350 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 1: National Mall, it was actually just an army parade. It 351 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 1: wasn't a Trump parade. He was there because he's the 352 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 1: commander in chief. It's the two hundred and fiftieth birthday 353 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 1: of the army. This event has actually been planned because 354 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 1: the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary was coming up for 355 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,679 Speaker 1: a long time and people knew it. There have been 356 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 1: plans in the work since two thousand twenty three at 357 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 1: least just. 358 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 2: To do this. Yeah. Yeah, he had very little to 359 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 2: do with this, and yet it was like, look at 360 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 2: the king with his military parade for his birthday, and 361 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 2: it's like, yes, it really wasn't and just he makes 362 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,119 Speaker 2: people lose their minds like this. I actually think the 363 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 2: no Kings is very bad branding. I don't think that 364 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 2: they nailed it with this one. 365 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 1: I think they did either. They're usually better at. 366 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,919 Speaker 2: That, so much better. And the pic pussy you know 367 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 2: hat thing in twenty sixteen, way more effective, way more 368 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:39,120 Speaker 2: like striking and lands. Where kind of his weaknesses were, 369 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,679 Speaker 2: it was with women, and it was the comments he 370 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 2: made to Billy Bush. They nailed that he's not trying 371 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 2: to be a king, and I don't know who thinks otherwise. 372 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 1: So say, his answers to whether people should be concerned 373 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: about him being a king are far better than Obama's were, 374 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:59,160 Speaker 1: because Obama would just wax poetic about how he kind 375 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 1: of wished he was but he can't do it, and 376 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 1: I'm sure you could find tape of Trump doing the same. 377 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 1: But when he was just recently asked about it, he 378 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 1: was like, I don't feel like a king, like I 379 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 1: keep having to check with Mike Johnson I can do. 380 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 2: And also like local district court judges keep stopping him. 381 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,879 Speaker 2: So you know, there was that meme going around like 382 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 2: Donald Trump was going to resign from the presidency and 383 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 2: take a really you know, the high power job of district. 384 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:27,920 Speaker 1: District court judge. 385 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:28,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. 386 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: I do want to play just a tiny clip of 387 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 1: the Army two fifty parade, which was I must say, 388 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:40,640 Speaker 1: very cool. Here is the scary, UH military parade. These 389 00:22:40,640 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 1: guys are marching and you'll hear the horrifying soundtracks. When 390 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: I think fascists, I think John Phillips SUSA. Right. 391 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 2: Also, I should know, I like London does that like 392 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 2: three times a week. 393 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 1: So oh yeah. In fact, he did it the same 394 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 1: day as US this year. Yes, this landed on Trump's birthday, 395 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,359 Speaker 1: but also Flag Day and also the two hundred and 396 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 1: fiftieth birthday of the US Army. I loved that they 397 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 1: did all the different eras of uniforms. I loved it 398 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 1: looked fantastic. The voiceover if you were a history person 399 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,400 Speaker 1: or at all interested in this, was also great because 400 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:46,159 Speaker 1: you're just learning things about the American military while they're 401 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 1: troop in the color as they say in Britain, the 402 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 1: lawmakers are watching Carol. Would you like to guess how 403 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 1: long Trump's speech was at this event? 404 00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 2: Oh? You know Trump likes to give the really long speech, 405 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 2: but I feel like the fact that you're asking me 406 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 2: means it didn't go two hours. 407 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:08,680 Speaker 1: So for the Trump Parade on his birthday, where he's 408 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:10,679 Speaker 1: a king, he gave an eight minute speech. 409 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's good, He's very, very good. 410 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 1: And he also swore in a bunch of officers in 411 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 1: the middle of the parade, or a bunch of new 412 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 1: enlisties and re enlisties at the parade, which is such 413 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:29,360 Speaker 1: a cool thing, except that I joked that he's literally 414 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 1: in the streets of America telling them to obey his orders, 415 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 1: and we're all just blind to this horrific, unprecedented move. 416 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 1: Of course, that's just the normal oaths that you give 417 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 1: when you're subject to the orders of the commander in 418 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:45,280 Speaker 1: chief in our system. Even MSNBC had to admit at 419 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 1: one point like this doesn't seem like dark or scary. 420 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, they were real worried about it before though. Matt 421 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 2: cover on X tweeted, who knew that principled opposition to 422 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 2: Trump would mean booing the Army's two hundred fiftieth birthday. 423 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:04,400 Speaker 2: If you find yourself booing the Army's birthday, like you've 424 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 2: got some problems. 425 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was just nice. All the guys in the 426 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 1: tanks were like smiling and waving at children. They at 427 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 1: one point, I did enjoy this, and I think this 428 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: is a Trump era flare that might not have existed otherwise. 429 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 1: When the tanks were coming down the street of different eras, 430 00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 1: they would play songs from the different eras. So it 431 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:24,400 Speaker 1: was like inter sandmen and I love some seventies rock. 432 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:34,679 Speaker 1: It was very American. Wow, So just stop overreacting to everything. Man, 433 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: they came to. 434 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:38,959 Speaker 2: Your lips, Mary Catherine, I really would enjoy that. How 435 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:44,159 Speaker 2: did the New York Times handle Father's Day? Okay, speaking 436 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:48,639 Speaker 2: of overreacting. Did they have a very positive message for 437 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:50,160 Speaker 2: fathers on Father's Day? 438 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: You know, they had a daughter write a piece called 439 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,159 Speaker 1: what my father gave Me? 440 00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:58,399 Speaker 2: He gave her good things? 441 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:04,919 Speaker 1: Right, oh, contrerel It was a piece called what my 442 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,640 Speaker 1: father gave Me, and it was all about how much 443 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 1: she dislikes her father and he's still with us. She 444 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 1: wrote a New York Times article about him, and I'm 445 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:18,639 Speaker 1: just saying, look, parental relationships can be complicated, Okay, I 446 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:22,120 Speaker 1: understand that. Just find one person in America who loves 447 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 1: their father or stepfather. 448 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 2: Or father in law.

Innocent kids are paying the price 487 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: simply because their dads showed up for work, we're near 488 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 1: a home depot, or we're in the wrong place at 489 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 1: the wrong time.
