No, 94 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 1: we were witnessing a regional sports league prior right exactly, 95 00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 1: And now that everyone on every continent can hooper play 96 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: baseball or like has that opportunity, we can take the 97 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: ceiling off our expectations and as we do, like watching 98 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 1: what they're able to do will look like an optical illusion, 99 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: Like it's like they my brain cannot make sense of it. 100 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: It's very very strange. 101 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 2: Yes, every year that idea, like the American All Stars 102 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 2: versus World All Stars and an All Stars one. Yeah, 103 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,239 Speaker 2: it gets to the point where, like, do the Americans 104 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 2: get the shit kicked out of them? Pretty soon? 105 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 1: That was a good idea for like the past three years, 106 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 1: and I think from this point forward it's going to 107 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 1: be less and less of a good idea. 108 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 2: It's gonna be bad. It's gonna be bad for the brand. 109 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: I don't know, though, I guess Joel Embiid is no 110 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 1: longer in that conversation.

My Philadelphia seventy six ers did 112 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:56,159 Speaker 1: pull off a come from behind victory behind the play 113 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: of a rookie who scored the most points in his 114 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: NBA debut game.

I'm dude, there's fenty in the ocean. 240 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: I think I see in the ocean. I started feigning 241 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 1: like one of those cops in twenty twenty. 242 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 2: Oh man, I put my feet ocean. They went numb 243 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 2: and then fell off because of all the fentanyl in 244 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 2: the water. 245 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: So, I mean, I had just done fentanyl, but I 246 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,320 Speaker 1: think it was the ocean. 247 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 2: Kidding the ocean. I think it's a salt. 248 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 1: Water the ocean. 249 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, but again, you know with all the illegal war 250 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 2: crimes going on in the oceans where the United States 251 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 2: is just unilaterally killing innocent people with just allegations, no. 252 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: Allegations of things that aren't like capital offenses, that would 253 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,959 Speaker 1: know any like even if they were able to prove 254 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,560 Speaker 1: the thing that they claim the people are guilty of, 255 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 1: it would still be a war crime to kill. 256 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,079 Speaker 2: Well, what if I said the drugs were really bad 257 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 2: on that boat, Like what lake cocaine? Ah, okay, what 258 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:14,559 Speaker 2: if it was fentanyl? What if I said fentanyl was 259 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 2: a weapon of mass destruction? Then is it okay to 260 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 2: blow up the boats? 261 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 1: Because I think I'm really arguing because yeah, I saw 262 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: this headline that it's saying they're trying to classify fentanyl 263 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 1: as a WMD. Are they arguing that like it's going 264 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 1: to be used as such or is it like metaphorically 265 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 1: like could do the same damage? 266 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 2: Well, this is okay, So Tom Holman, the drunken alley cat, 267 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 2: who is the pretend borders are or sadly the actual 268 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 2: borders are. He was at this like Future of Defense Summit, 269 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 2: Axios's Future of Defense Summit and said that this reclassification 270 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 2: would quote at least be a discussion. He basically said, 271 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 2: there was a security briefing that like discussed classifying. But 272 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 2: the fentanyl is potentially a weapon of mass destruction, he said, 273 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,479 Speaker 2: quote when I left that briefing, it was my understanding 274 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 2: that they would push that recommendation up to the secretary. 275 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 2: But I've been out of it ever since. 276 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 1: Did he touch fentanyl? Why has he been out of 277 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 1: it ever since? Oh? He met like out of the loop. 278 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 2: Maybe who knows, I mean, looking at him, he might 279 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 2: have actually just been like, and I touched a pilot 280 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 2: fen D and I fucking want. 281 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: Touched something that had fentanyl written on it, and a 282 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 1: lot of people don't know. But that's equally even enough. 283 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 2: That's enough. But again, Lauren Bobert did introduce fentanyl is 284 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 2: a Weapon of Mass Destruction Act earlier this year, and 285 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 2: that would require this whole other you know, the DHS 286 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 2: is Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction Office to do that classification, 287 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 2: but just the fact that it's swirling around rhetorically, I'm like, 288 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 2: this is it. I feel like that's the only way 289 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 2: because the entire world is like, you are killed. These 290 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 2: are these are acts of warrior committing as the United States. 291 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 2: And I think now they're like, what fuck man? Then 292 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 2: then I guess we got to say it, what's our 293 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 2: favorite way to kill a bunch of inn Brown people 294 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 2: say they got weapons of mass instruction and. 295 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: They really hate testing their cocaine. It turns out Lauren 296 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 1: bo Burton, you know, Republicans, they're like, we shouldn't have 297 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 1: to do this. 298 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 2: It's I can't. 299 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: They reminded me of something the weapons like using. It's 300 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: wild that they're using the phrase weapons of mass destruction 301 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 1: that they used to like famously justify a war that 302 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 1: turns out iteration was unjustifiable. Yeah, and that the webs 303 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 1: of mass destruction didn't exist, Like you think they'd try 304 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: and do a rebrand, but they're just using again because w. 305 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 2: MD is so like, immediately, anyone who remembers that terrible 306 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 2: era of American history, you need to do jerk off 307 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 2: hand motion. Yeah, all right, weapons, Yeah, go ahead? Uh huh. 308 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 1: They got that yellow cake, They got that yellow cake. 309 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 2: Sure, sure, sure, But yeah, this is again, I think 310 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 2: they're just they have to do anything to try and 311 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,440 Speaker 2: justify what's happening, because it's clearly not enough. I mean, 312 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,440 Speaker 2: at this point, they're gonna say, like, fucking you know, 313 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 2: Calvin and Hobbes books are going to be weapons of 314 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,360 Speaker 2: mass destruction or some shit behaving. 315 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 1: About the ideas that it's infecting your children with. Yeah, okay, 316 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 1: that stuff. He ain't alive. 317 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:26,479 Speaker 2: That's just a stuffed that's just a stuffed animal tiger. 318 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 1: That's right. It's got his kids all whacked out. Let's uh, 319 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,360 Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back. 320 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: And we're back. We're back, and we're starting to see 321 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 1: some very real consequences of the government shutdown coming our way. Specifically, 322 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 1: no more SNAP benefits for hungry and starving Americans. 323 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is twenty five states have begun telling participants 324 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,920 Speaker 2: of the SNAP program that they won't be receiving assistance 325 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:13,479 Speaker 2: checks in come November. So it's like states like Alabama, Arkansas, Hawaii, Indiana, California, Mississippi, Indiana, 326 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 2: New Jersey, medi like like fucking half the country. And 327 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 2: you know, I think this should be a bigger story 328 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:24,119 Speaker 2: because forty two million people according to like one of 329 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 2: the last sort of you know, the statistics that they 330 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,879 Speaker 2: were keeping for the SNAP program, and forty two million 331 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 2: people are going hungry fucking intentionally. Right. This isn't because. 332 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 1: Because they don't want those Epstein files out. 333 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, they don't want that. They don't whatever. For every 334 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,479 Speaker 2: reason for Russell Vott to continue to gut the federal 335 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:50,360 Speaker 2: government and these kinds of government agencies. This is happening intentionally. 336 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 2: Forty two million people will lose their assistance to get 337 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:56,360 Speaker 2: food intentionally. 338 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 1: And it's never been good about feeding the hungry in 339 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 1: the first so it's not like this is one of 340 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 1: many you know, fallbacks that these no. 341 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 2: Not at all, And I'm sure Fox viewers when they 342 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 2: because a lot of the times, people like so much 343 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 2: public assistance for MAGA people is basically sort of painted 344 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 2: as this thing is like, well, it's only black and 345 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,119 Speaker 2: brown people and non white it's like, you know, the 346 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 2: poor people, wink wink wink, not acknowledging that everyone needs 347 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 2: assistance in this country. For all the Fox viewers who 348 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 2: are probably rejoicing that it could be just people of 349 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 2: color that were suffered. Nearly forty percent of Snap benefits 350 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 2: are white, so you know that's that's gonna touch everyone's 351 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:41,159 Speaker 2: fucking community. You've seen Governor Polis in Colorado's like been 352 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 2: calling on like food banks or people to just begin 353 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 2: donating money to food banks to make up for this 354 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 2: gap in coverage. You've heard from just individual business owners 355 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,399 Speaker 2: saying like they're going to try and offer free meals 356 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 2: to people that lost their Snap benefits. Like it's falling 357 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 2: on individuals to help each other here. But again, this 358 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:02,120 Speaker 2: is the first time resident of the United States has 359 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 2: intentionally stopped funding this program. 360 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think that he could continue funding it, 361 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 1: right even if the government stays shut there and. 362 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,440 Speaker 2: They can do two ver I mean, in the big 363 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 2: beautiful bill, this this was always going to be a 364 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 2: thing that happened. So but this is the thing also 365 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 2: that Democrats are trying to fight back on to be 366 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 2: like these other things people need, like Snap benefits, these 367 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 2: Obamacare subsidies, these are all things that are needed. Because 368 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,920 Speaker 2: the one version is that the Republicans completely own this 369 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 2: and be like, yeah, I mean that was in the 370 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 2: bill we passed, and they could nuke the filibuster and 371 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 2: get the continuing Resolution through the Senate and open the 372 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,879 Speaker 2: government back up again. But they are in this weird 373 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 2: position where they don't want to own the absolute horrors 374 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 2: that they're going to inflict on people from the big 375 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 2: beautiful bill and try and do this like weird song 376 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 2: and dance that it's like, let's take no King's rallies 377 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 2: the Democrats. It's because this other thing. No, it's them, 378 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 2: and they don't they They're now at the point where 379 00:20:58,480 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 2: like they don't want to own it so publicly, So 380 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 2: now millions of people are going to suffer. I just 381 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 2: think it's a it's a big that's a big story 382 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 2: that affects people in the most direct way, which is 383 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 2: their ability to eat food. Yeah, And I think that's why, 384 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,919 Speaker 2: like I sort of put this other story right after it, 385 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 2: because there's like this, there's so much outrage over the 386 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:21,159 Speaker 2: East wing, the East wing of the White House is 387 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 2: being demolished. And I get that. I get the fucking 388 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 2: visuals of seeing. 389 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 1: Just a literal metaphor, that's what they should be. 390 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 2: Like, I get like he's great at creating visual metaphors. 391 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 1: What he's doing in the country. 392 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 2: It's gaudy, Yes, it's a vector for even more corruption. Yes, 393 00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 2: that's fucking terrible. It's an insult to the tradition of 394 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:44,119 Speaker 2: the presidency. Sure, but this entire fucking these administrations that 395 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,959 Speaker 2: he's been in have been an insult to every just 396 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,880 Speaker 2: fucking all of us. Yeah, but like we are killing 397 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 2: people in boats for nothing, Trump is taking away benefits 398 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 2: from people that need support. Ice is just rounding whoever 399 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 2: the fuck up with with no explanation, Epstein files shut down. 400 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,120 Speaker 2: There are so many things this is clearly an effective 401 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 2: distraction because it's it's obviously clear like triggered the outrage 402 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,639 Speaker 2: of the pundit class in and around DC. But like, 403 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 2: focus on the things that we as everyday people are facing. 404 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,399 Speaker 2: I don't want to read another opinion piece about someone 405 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 2: reminiscing about how magical the East Wing is and its history. 406 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 2: I get that, Like, I totally understand that, but like 407 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,880 Speaker 2: the stakes are just so fucking high right now. It's 408 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 2: just I don't understand obsessing over this ballroom thing. And again, 409 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 2: we're it's an omni crisis. Everything's fucking on fire. But 410 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 2: I think forty two million people that's including children, the elderly, 411 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 2: and people with disabilities not getting food assistance is much 412 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:51,119 Speaker 2: bigger than private property being destroyed. But again, these are 413 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:55,920 Speaker 2: the reflexes of the United States. We see property be destroyed, like, oh, 414 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,639 Speaker 2: he did that, he made the ultimate crime. He committed 415 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:03,920 Speaker 2: the ultimate a crime in the UF. He hurt private property. 416 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 1: Well, it wasn't really private, so it's all right, it's 417 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 1: government and. 418 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, we hate the private fundate so it's not texpayer 419 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 2: money and every other fucking excuse they want to come 420 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:13,679 Speaker 2: out with. But like, I found this interesting. This was 421 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 2: in just like just in the news, right, people talking 422 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 2: about like, oh god, what's happening, Like, here's a DC 423 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 2: eptic quote. DC is obsessed with this ballroom. The story 424 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:25,160 Speaker 2: makes the front pages of the Times, in the Post today. 425 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 2: The number of cable newsmenutes devoted to this topic have 426 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 2: been unimaginably high. At every DC drinks party, conversation turns 427 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 2: to demolition. It's going to dominate more of the discourse 428 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,200 Speaker 2: through the day. And I've seen people on Blue Sky 429 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,439 Speaker 2: on Twitter like journalists be like, this might be the 430 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 2: thing that's really going to get people really, you know, 431 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 2: to turn on Trump. Are you fucking kidding me? Yeah, 432 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 2: that's the fucking building got torn you think that's the 433 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 2: fucking thing, Like everyone is so unseerious man. But anyway, 434 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:57,760 Speaker 2: and then like there are other points, like the polling's 435 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:01,919 Speaker 2: really bad on this one, really bad, like who gives 436 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,959 Speaker 2: a ship? There are dozens of other issues that are 437 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 2: actually a threat to our things. Bad pulling on every 438 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 2: there's just fucking the pullings bad everywhere. But then trying 439 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:14,120 Speaker 2: to act like it's. 440 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:16,879 Speaker 1: The pullings bad on Gaza, but they don't mention that, 441 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 1: but they on this one, they're like, what are the 442 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 1: people think he's really stepped in at this time? 443 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:25,199 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I don't know. I mean like, in 444 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 2: a way, this is it's because of their total lack 445 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 2: of awareness over how people are surviving in this country 446 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,640 Speaker 2: that it allows things like Zoron's candidacy to come out 447 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 2: of nowhere and completely blind side the elite. 448 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,120 Speaker 1: You're like, what the fuck there? 449 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 2: Really? Yeah, absolute fucking ship Phil. 450 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 1: We'll talk about it, we'll talk about tomorrows. 451 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:50,119 Speaker 2: But ship just racist fucking slop. 452 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,880 Speaker 1: Anyway, people's face is changing from one end of the next. 453 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 2: I mean I think it is. I don't know. Part 454 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 2: of me sees there is some optimism and knowing that 455 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 2: the people that are the architects of everyone's have no 456 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 2: idea what the stakes are for the people that they 457 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 2: are pressing. So when time comes for people to take 458 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:09,440 Speaker 2: up for themselves, they're completely going to be not understand 459 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:11,680 Speaker 2: what to do. I mean, obviously they'll probably I mean, 460 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 2: we're seeing them gear up with more militarized police. That's 461 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 2: one probable response. But like this, like, oh my god, 462 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 2: at every DC drinks party, Okay, you're talking about literally 463 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:26,159 Speaker 2: maybe three thousand people in the country, right, that's like 464 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 2: and and I get everyone. 465 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,880 Speaker 1: I mean, they're very comfortable saying it's just an eye 466 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:36,159 Speaker 1: sore because they're you know, Nimbi's, so yeah, they're just 467 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,440 Speaker 1: it's just an eye sore. That's actually why we can't 468 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 1: have that public housing. 469 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 2: Just fucking weird, man, Like you're just we're talking about 470 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,440 Speaker 2: millions of people not getting food assistance. But then it's 471 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 2: like the ball and again, I understand the corruption. That's 472 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 2: really the thing they just pivot to that just talk 473 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 2: about how nakedly corrupt this administration is also sor and. 474 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 1: Now like visually evident that I don't mind that he's 475 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 1: like creating a live action political cartoon of what he's 476 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 1: actually doing to the country. Yeah, like as a favor 477 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 1: for the brains, the eyes and brains of people, But 478 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: it does seem like not the thing to focus on 479 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 1: at this moment. 480 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 2: Maybe No, No, I think there are other things that 481 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:30,440 Speaker 2: would Like an example, right, forty two million people losing 482 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 2: their snap benefits. 483 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, those who a big one. 484 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,199 Speaker 2: You could probably get millions of people to be like, 485 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 2: huh on that story. Ask those forty two million people 486 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 2: if what they if they give a fuck about a 487 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:45,440 Speaker 2: rose garden.
