1 00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:11,880 Speaker 1: The tariffs that have caused so much inflation that we 2 00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:15,200 Speaker 1: haven't seen yet but still might be coming according to 3 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:17,720 Speaker 1: a bunch of the Libs. Also, what happened to good 4 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:19,880 Speaker 1: old fashioned criminals. I know that might be a weird 5 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:21,800 Speaker 1: thing to say, but I do have a point to that. 6 00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:26,040 Speaker 1: And the Libs used federal funding to fund a lot 7 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:28,400 Speaker 1: of their war chests, which many of it is on 8 00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:30,520 Speaker 1: display as of right now. All that more coming up 9 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 1: on this episode of Turning Point Tonight. My name is 10 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:33,879 Speaker 1: job Bob. Thanks so much for tuning in. Together, we 11 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 1: are charting the course of America's cultural comeback. This is 12 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: Turning Point tonight. And before we get to that and 13 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 1: are fantastic, guess here. You know, I realize we're talking 14 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:46,520 Speaker 1: about the La riots a lot, but I think there 15 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: needs to be a bigger discussion about rioting in general 16 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: and the attention that it receives. Gavin Newsom put out 17 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 1: a video last night that I thought was abhorrent, so 18 00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 1: abhorrent that I don't even want to play it here 19 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: and characterize what he said. But yesterday I spent the 20 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 1: opening monologue complaining about having how Gavin Newsom just wants attention, 21 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 1: and I don't know, I feel like playing that even 22 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 1: though we're going to talk about and playing that video 23 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 1: just gives him more of that attention. But the LA 24 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,679 Speaker 1: riots are continuing to go on, and Governor Gavin Newsom 25 00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: is continuing to gain in popularity amongst the ten percent 26 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 1: of people who think rioting is a good idea. Now, 27 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:28,039 Speaker 1: yesterday Karen Bass, the mayor of La, instituted an eight 28 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 1: pm curfew, which is weird because I don't know. I've 29 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 1: been told by Governor Newsom and Mayor Bass that well, 30 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: there's no emergency that warrants the National Guard being in town, 31 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: so I don't know why they would put a curfew 32 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: in place. The Libs have also been talking about this 33 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 1: new talking point that I thought was fascinating. MSNBC was 34 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 1: talking about, and a bunch of the lib outlets we're 35 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: talking about it early this morning on the show. Ah. Look, 36 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 1: La is a big place, and all the violence is 37 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: only happening in one square mile. It's just a small 38 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 1: Most of LA is fine, to which I say, let's 39 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: use your other argument against you. What about January sixth, 40 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: if you go to the Smithsonian. Oh, look, the Smithsonian 41 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:10,359 Speaker 1: is fine. Nothing's going on, just to stuffed tigers and artwork. 42 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: It was fine. Then again, mostly here we're just talking 43 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: about the logic of their argument. But the one thing 44 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: that I've noticed that I think is fascinating to see 45 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:25,399 Speaker 1: just from a thirty thousand foot view perspective is who terrorists, sorry, 46 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,639 Speaker 1: rioters Freudian slipped there, But I also think it makes 47 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 1: sense in this context who rioters actually are. It seems 48 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 1: to me that rioters are a segregated class. If you've noticed, 49 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 1: it seems to only exclusively be rich liberals and poor people. 50 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: The rich liberals who are delusioned into the fact that 51 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: the rioting is going to do something, and the poor 52 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 1: people who don't know any better and think it'll actually help. 53 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: What I'm trying to say is that middle class people 54 00:02:55,919 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 1: of all races and lifestyles don't riot. At least that's 55 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: what I'm seeing, and I'd be curious if you adn't 56 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: think any different. Tpt at TPUSA dot com. But at 57 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,799 Speaker 1: the end of the day, the riots in Los Angeles 58 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: are indicative of how progressives see the United States of America, 59 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 1: and the fact that Gavin Newsom is trying to corner 60 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: that market leads me to believe one that he's solely 61 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 1: in it for attention, but two is missing the boat 62 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 1: big time because the majority of Americans don't like what 63 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 1: they are seeing. I know we've talked about the LA 64 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: riots a lot, but it continues to be a massive story. 65 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: And here to comment on that and so much more 66 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 1: is functional health practitioner among bodybuilders. Steve Kuklo. Okay, thanks 67 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 1: man for joining us. Really appreciate you taking the time. 68 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 2: Thanks you, Bob. Always an honor to be on here 69 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 2: and shop it up with you a little bit. 70 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: So, you know, to kind of get back on this 71 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: other thing. And to the viewers, I promise we were 72 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: going to talk about other things minus the LA riots, 73 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: because everybody's been talking about it NonStop. But yesterday was 74 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 1: a turning point, if you will. Karen Bass said, Hey, 75 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: there's an eight o'clock curfew, and then police officers are 76 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: arresting anybody outside minus press. Steve, you know, I was 77 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 1: told that the riots were not bad enough to send 78 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: in federal reinforcements. But also there's a curfew because it's 79 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: so bad people can't be out at night. I can 80 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: you help square that for me? Or am I just 81 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:20,359 Speaker 1: am I taking crazy bills? 82 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 2: No, I see, you got to question the leaders like 83 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 2: are they just M I A on this or are 84 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,840 Speaker 2: they complicit of what's going on. That's like you got 85 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:31,840 Speaker 2: to start ask some questions. And then Newsom coming on 86 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 2: when he had that interview with Charlie a few months back, 87 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 2: like we all kind of thought, man, he's got a 88 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 2: little bit of common sense in there. This guy could 89 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 2: be in the middle. And then all of a sudden, 90 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 2: you know, this happens, and it just proves that that 91 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 2: was all a show and this guy has no I 92 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 2: don't think any enough brain power, let alone four to 93 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 2: two to run our country. Like he wanted to be 94 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 2: a presidential candidate, he wants to have big aspirations, and 95 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 2: this just shows you that there's no way that this 96 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 2: guy could run America. How majority of America we're going 97 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:05,840 Speaker 2: to say that, you know, sixty to seventy percent of 98 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 2: what Americans will want America to be if he's going 99 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 2: to allow this to happen under his watch, this is 100 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 2: just really it's terrible. You know, it's terrible for the 101 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 2: people that are just you know, hard working Americans that 102 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 2: are putting in your you know, the hours, your eight 103 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 2: hour jobs. You're eight to Four's your people that are 104 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 2: trying to just travel down the highway and then they 105 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:27,159 Speaker 2: got it shut down, you know, protesting and causing havoc 106 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,480 Speaker 2: and ruining police cars. And you know, I worked as 107 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 2: a firefighter for the city Dallas for ten years, so 108 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 2: I was I was a first responder, and I understand, 109 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 2: you know, working with the public and then how outrage happens. 110 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 2: And you know, one can turn to two, turns to 111 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 2: four and it just goes crazy. It's where it's like wildfire, 112 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 2: literally no pun intended, being out in California. I mean 113 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 2: this is a different version of their wildfire. 114 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 1: But yeah, you. 115 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 2: Know, the protests just seem like it's nothing new. It's 116 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 2: like they just keep trying to replay this old, this 117 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 2: old play out of their playbook over and over again 118 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 2: to try to create this nothing's working, so like we'll 119 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 2: just recycle. It's kind of like the Dallas Cowboys running 120 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,239 Speaker 2: the same play over and over and over. We expect 121 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 2: them the score and they don't score. We're you know, 122 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 2: as a Cowboys fan, you're banging your head against the table, 123 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 2: like what is going on here? But it's tie. I 124 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,239 Speaker 2: think they're at that point, you know, that's just saying 125 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 2: like f around and find out, Well, they fed around 126 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 2: and they're about to find out what, you know, the 127 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 2: kind of bringing in some military presence and whatnot. And 128 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 2: obviously for local authorities, it is a lot, and it's 129 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 2: you know, at the end of the day, these guys 130 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 2: are human. These guys want to go home to their 131 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 2: families at night. Yeah, and if it means like, hey, 132 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 2: we gotta we got to ultimately protect the greater good 133 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 2: of the people that are, you know, just trying to 134 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 2: live normal life and not have a couple, whether it's 135 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 2: illegals and then people that are getting paid to run 136 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 2: around the streets and burn stuff down, it's it's about 137 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 2: time we just put an end to this. Like I'm 138 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,280 Speaker 2: all for protests, but these are far from peaceful, as 139 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 2: you know. 140 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, of course nobody. Nobody likes riots. Mostly peaceful protests, 141 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: but also fiery for some reason, that's an age old 142 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: saying that we are now a custom to mockery. You 143 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: also mentioned Gavin not being super smart. He actually admitted 144 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: that on Charlie's show, like, oh look, I got a 145 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 1: really terrible score on the SAT Like, yes, Gavin, we 146 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: know the video. Also was talking about yesterday that he posted, 147 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: and again I don't want to play it because I 148 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: don't want to put his face on people's screens because 149 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: I think people have turned the TV off. But he 150 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: basically said, you know, you could be just sitting on 151 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 1: the corner and Ice will pick you up based on 152 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: your race, which is like, dude, you're trying to start 153 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 1: a race war just for attention Like that. That's horrible, 154 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: and unfortunately, I think it's spread outside of California. Here's 155 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: a video from a clip from Savannah Hernandez, a Frontlines 156 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 1: reporter who, by the way, was supposed to be a 157 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 1: guest yesterday and had to cancel last minute. Abandoned the 158 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 1: show in our time of greatest need. But I'm glad 159 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: she did because she went to New York specifically for this. 160 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: Watched this the irony. It might actually physically hurt. Go 161 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: ahead and play clip four. 162 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 3: You could just knock again. You're not going How is 163 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 3: it the people protest that doesn't. 164 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: I'm starting a black woman from going to work? 165 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 3: Oh no, how about stopping black people from going to work? 166 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: Look at this line. 167 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 3: I'm not pausing problems, I'm not trying to where just 168 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 3: shine to me. 169 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 1: I probably should have set that up a little bit, 170 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: but that is, Uh, white liberals in New York City 171 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:40,319 Speaker 1: protesting by keeping black feet people from movie kidnapping black people. 172 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 1: If you, if you will, I might be able to 173 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,319 Speaker 1: categorize it like that, if you kind of look at 174 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 1: it more objectively, Steve, you know, this unfortunately looks like 175 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: it's going to expand how do conservatives respond to that? 176 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 1: How does the Trump administration respond to that? What what 177 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: should we do in light of the protests, the riot 178 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: it's kind of expanding further than we want. 179 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 2: Might be an unpopular opinion, but if they happen in Texas, 180 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 2: we got big trucks, and I don't think a few 181 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 2: people standing away are going to stop people from maybe 182 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 2: running them over. I've had a you know, I work 183 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 2: with a lot of guys and I was having a 184 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 2: conversation this morning and we were talking about that, and 185 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 2: they're like, man, if these guys were in the highway 186 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 2: block of the road and I got my big truck 187 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,439 Speaker 2: because I'm just going I'm not stopping. So not saying 188 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 2: that's the right way to go about it, but again, 189 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 2: if it's becoming a nuisance to the public, if it 190 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 2: is if it's causing people, preventing them from getting to work, 191 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 2: you know, like you've mentioned, like I don't think these 192 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 2: people have jobs. So that's why we're figuring out these 193 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 2: events to be getting paid to be out here. And 194 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 2: normal people that are working in eight to four, you know, 195 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 2: have families doing things they don't have time to go 196 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 2: out and do in protest, and you know, make these 197 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 2: signs and act the full and it just seems like 198 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,959 Speaker 2: at this point it's we should just schedule the weekly riot, 199 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 2: like whether it's like Taco Tuesday, then wh as we 200 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 2: call it like tire fire Thursday, something like that, tire 201 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 2: fire Thursday. 202 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, that'd be great. Like, hey, we've got a designated 203 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:12,439 Speaker 1: rioting zone for you. It is a thousand square foot 204 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: park over here. Go ahead and do all of your 205 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: riding over there. Leave us normal people alone. And that's 206 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 1: that's how it'll work, you know. Speaking of this, this 207 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: idea of where they get their money from, I thought 208 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: this was fascinating. And the direct ties are kind of 209 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: still murky, just a little bit, but a big piece 210 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 1: in the wash. The Washington Times opinion piece says roughly 211 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 1: twenty billion dollars of your tax dollars were parked at 212 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,199 Speaker 1: outside financial institutions by the Biden administration EPA. This is 213 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: Lee Zelden talking. The scheme was first, the first of 214 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 1: it's kind of EPA history, was purposely designed to obligate 215 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 1: all of the money in a rush to reduce oversight. 216 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 1: In other words, right federal tax dollars, we're going to 217 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: the EPA, and the EPA was doling out twenty billion dollars, 218 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 1: he says, to just random NGOs. And then these people 219 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 1: show up with plates with palettes of bricks, and you go, hey, 220 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 1: who paid for those pallets of bricks? And then you 221 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: find out that somebody who has bought the bricks is 222 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 1: funded by somebody else who's funded by somebody else who 223 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: interestingly has a contract with the federal government. Again, there's 224 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: not really direct ties as of yet, but I think 225 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: it's a matter of time before we start to see 226 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: Holy cow, the US taxpayer unfortunately seems to be footing 227 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: the bill for a lot of this. 228 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 2: It seems that way. You know, again, going back to 229 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,719 Speaker 2: when the George Floyd riots happened, and they were all 230 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 2: these protests, and they were happening in Dallas and where 231 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 2: I live, and and people were very surprised. And then 232 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 2: people were posting all these pictures of pallettes of bricks 233 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,679 Speaker 2: doing all this stuff, and we're like, somebody is coordinating this, 234 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:54,079 Speaker 2: somebody is funding this. So clearly it's good to ask questions. 235 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 2: And I think what they do administration in the FBI, 236 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 2: I think Dan Bongino and Cash, I think they will, 237 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 2: you know, they're gonna they're gonna pull back the curtin 238 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,319 Speaker 2: and see what's going on. And if there's some really 239 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,439 Speaker 2: funny business, some illegal stuff going on, they're going to 240 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,839 Speaker 2: put a stop to it. And it needs to. Again, 241 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 2: this is I get the reason for protests. I'm not 242 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 2: saying they're bad, but when it's at this level, it 243 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 2: is just not warranted. It doesn't make sense that you're 244 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 2: destroying property, you're doing everything that is what protests do, 245 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 2: like the peaceful protests, what they what protests are supposed 246 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:31,960 Speaker 2: to stand for. It's just the NGO stuff you'd mentioned about, 247 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 2: you know, the funding that is happening. And I think 248 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 2: what even Elon you know, figured it out that hey, 249 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 2: there's a lot of this money that's being floated on 250 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 2: you know, floating around the government, that's that's being maliciously 251 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 2: spent and uh with dos and all that, and and 252 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 2: I think that definitely opens some people's eyes that that 253 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 2: stuff really does exist. And for the longest time we 254 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,200 Speaker 2: do you know, Americans want to think the best of 255 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,559 Speaker 2: the country. They want to think that this will never 256 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 2: happen here. People are going to be you know, honest people. 257 00:12:58,559 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, humans will he 258 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,599 Speaker 2: human and humans will do things that are going to 259 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,720 Speaker 2: ultimately benefit them, whether it's lying their pockets, whether it's 260 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 2: you know, help push their cause down the road. That's 261 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 2: what they're trying to do, and they're doing it with 262 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:16,239 Speaker 2: a lot of funds that should be segmented other places, 263 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:20,439 Speaker 2: whether it's you know, helping infrastructure of our country, helping 264 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 2: people like veterans, helping people that truly need this money. 265 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 2: Now just you know, to try to push a cause, 266 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 2: to try to make a bunch of illegal people legal, 267 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 2: which they came here illegally. So I mean, if this 268 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,960 Speaker 2: is the whole cause, like it just you shake your head. 269 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 2: You put Sometimes at the end of the day, I'm 270 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 2: just like, listen that the news is going to just 271 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 2: try to keep infuriating you with these same stories and 272 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 2: it just gets under your skin and at the end 273 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 2: of the day, like you have to kind of focus 274 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,440 Speaker 2: on you focus on taking care of your house, doing 275 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:54,319 Speaker 2: the things that are going to help move the needle 276 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 2: in your life, versus like focusing on these people that 277 00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 2: really feel it seems like they don't have a life totally. 278 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: You hit on something that could probably be a three 279 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: hour podcast, an idea of recognizing human nature. That's part 280 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: of being a conservative. You recognize reality in the human 281 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: nature that people exist in and craft policy around that, 282 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 1: not try to force a men can be women and 283 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 1: all of these different things that don't make any sense 284 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 1: in the natural law of humanity. And that's kind of 285 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: the whole point. But again that's probably a bigger discussion 286 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 1: for a bigger later time. Also, people that were seeing 287 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 1: Elon Musk on the screen on the b roll, just 288 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 1: so you know, this doge is what was responsible for 289 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: uncovering all of this wasted EPA funding, So that's why 290 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 1: that was there. And we'll probably also get to Elon 291 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 1: Musk a little bit later in the show. Steve will 292 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 1: be right back after the break to discuss a big 293 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 1: apology from two big personalities and inflation is just is 294 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 1: now so bad with the tariffs, people are turning to cannibalism. 295 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,120 Speaker 1: How can you keep yourself safe? And just in case 296 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 1: you can't stick around after the break, that's not actually true, 297 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: that's sarcasm. And if you can, we'll explain, no go away. 298 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 1: I'll be right back after this. Welcome back to Turning 299 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 1: Points tonight. We're together. We are charting the course of 300 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: America's cultural comeback. Let's check in with Turning Points. White 301 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 1: House Cours Monica, Page Monica. How are you doing today? 302 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 4: We're good, Joe, Bob. We're hanging in there. It is hot, 303 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 4: it is sweaty. Sweating is a full time job here 304 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 4: at the White House as well on top of it 305 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 4: and many other things that I'm handling. But we're hanging 306 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 4: in there with blots of water trying to keep cool. 307 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 4: Otherwise very good. 308 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 1: I've realized that, like in Washington, d C. There's like 309 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 1: six weeks on the opposite ends of summer that it's 310 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 1: beautiful and then it's just either freezing cold or freakishly hot. 311 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: So yes, I can attest to what you're feeling there 312 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 1: right now. Speaking of heat, you know, the tariffs are 313 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 1: going to increase inflation. Everything is going to go up. 314 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:49,160 Speaker 1: According to literally every news media outlet, including the Wall 315 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: Street Journal, which is supposed to be great at business. 316 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 1: Inflation reports came out today. Can you tell us, can 317 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: you tell us how bad is? How much has inflation 318 00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: just rapidly skyrocketed? And everyone, we're turning to cannibalism here. 319 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: That's what you're going to have to do. It's there's 320 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 1: no way around it. 321 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, we're all going to unleash some chaos here on 322 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 4: that point one percent, the one tenth of a percentage 323 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 4: that inflation rows in the month of May. I mean 324 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 4: back in April is two point three percent. Month of 325 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 4: April two point three percent, month of May two point 326 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 4: four percent. Really not that much happening here as far 327 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 4: as price is getting higher. I mean, the main driver 328 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 4: of inflation was rent. For what we know, as far 329 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 4: as this is concerned. When it comes to food, egg 330 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 4: prices are down. As far as energy is concerned, oil 331 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:38,119 Speaker 4: prices are down, fuel index down. These are all positive 332 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 4: things coming at the White House as far as inflation 333 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 4: is concerned, and all that fear mongering that the mainstream 334 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 4: media did. As far as these tarofts are going to 335 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 4: drive up prices, we're going to see, you know, everyone 336 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 4: paying an exorbitant amount of money. Quite the opposite. If anything, 337 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 4: this is a fantastic report. And for the last three 338 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 4: months that the President's been in office, inflation really hasn't 339 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 4: risen all that much. So this is just the beginning 340 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,680 Speaker 4: of maybe what could be inflation pooling perhaps, and especially 341 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 4: as we head into the summer season, a lot of 342 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 4: people are going to be traveling airline tickets and airfare 343 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 4: actually is down too as well, used cars, rental cars down, 344 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 4: hotel prices down, appareled down. So these are all positive 345 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 4: science moving forward. 346 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, despite those positive figures, the New York Times continued 347 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:27,360 Speaker 1: to spin it poorly. Their headline was Consumer price index 348 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 1: rose year over year, which is what inflation is, so 349 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 1: that's not really a problem. They just decided to obscure 350 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: what that actually means because of the New York Times. Hey, Monica, 351 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,880 Speaker 1: I heard the president has a date night tonight. Can 352 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:41,479 Speaker 1: you tell us about that? And there's a reason why 353 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: I think this is kind of interesting, or at least 354 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: we'll see if it gets interesting. What's going on there? 355 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, the President heading to the Kennedy Center with his 356 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 4: hot date. First Lady Milania Trump going to see the 357 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:56,359 Speaker 4: opening premiere of Lemez at the Kennedy Center tonight. So 358 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 4: he's living here around six thirty pm Eastern time, and 359 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:01,880 Speaker 4: it's that it'd be interesting to see how he's received, 360 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 4: especially at a location such as the Kennedy Center. 361 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. I just remember when former Vice President Mike Pence 362 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 1: went to go see Hamilton in New York and they 363 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 1: like stopped the show to address him, like, h if 364 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:19,160 Speaker 1: you're in power here, you're a yout that thought, that thought. 365 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,639 Speaker 1: I am so curious considering the fact that people in 366 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 1: the theater business tend to not be huge fans of 367 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 1: conservative policies. I'm super curious if anything like that is 368 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:30,399 Speaker 1: going to happen. I hope not. I hope it's just 369 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 1: a president theater kids. 370 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 4: Joe Bob, I've always got a sign a message. 371 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:38,640 Speaker 1: Yeah right, yeah, So we'll see if anything comes to that. Obviously, 372 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 1: we'll talk about it here tomorrow. Monica Page turning Points, 373 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 1: White House Correspondent, thanks so much for taking the time. Thanks, 374 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:47,879 Speaker 1: Jo Bob, thank you. The inflation numbers are pretty much stagnant. 375 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:49,719 Speaker 1: But like we were talking about with Monica, the New 376 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 1: York Times can't help but say, well, it Rose. You're 377 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 1: using terminology that doesn't doesn't define what it is that 378 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,919 Speaker 1: you're trying to talk about. But such is the Lib media. 379 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 1: Let's bring back Steve Kucko. Steve. This I thought was 380 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:07,040 Speaker 1: fascinating the inflation numbers coming out, because I've been hearing 381 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,439 Speaker 1: from everybody, and we just talked about a little bit 382 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 1: with Monica. Inflation is gonna go nuts with the Trump tariffs, 383 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 1: with trying to get back to reciprocal tariffs across the country. 384 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 1: Inflation though, has kind of steadied year over year. And 385 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:23,120 Speaker 1: in case, in case you weren't listening to New York 386 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 1: Times is well, inflation rose two and a half FeAs well, 387 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,880 Speaker 1: that's what inflation is. Where that's not what we're talking about. 388 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: What we've been talking about. Inflation rising is the rate 389 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:33,919 Speaker 1: of inflation rising. If inflation itself is actually at two percent, 390 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: that's what the Fed is trying to make it. Do 391 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 1: you know the tariffs? Apparently the big store here is 392 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 1: the tariffs really haven't had that big of an impact. 393 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: Did you see this coming? Did did any of your 394 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 1: lib friends, if you have any, see this coming? Or 395 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:50,679 Speaker 1: is this a shock to everyone? 396 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 2: Well, you know, like you said that the tariff. I 397 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:59,479 Speaker 2: don't think they've truly affected things like people anticipated, especially 398 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 2: as a news out to be like everything is just 399 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 2: gonna you know, quadruple in price. Some things get affected. 400 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 2: And is it a precautionary price increase? And are people 401 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,400 Speaker 2: using this for marketing tactics? Absolutely as a business owner 402 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,680 Speaker 2: of somebody that own some some online businesses and I understand, 403 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 2: you know, work with import, export and all that kind 404 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 2: of stuff. Ultimately like, well, this is a little bit 405 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:21,919 Speaker 2: more of a long term play. I believe that Trump 406 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 2: is doing, you know, people want to see and we're 407 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:26,359 Speaker 2: in this this day and age of i'll call it 408 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 2: the Amazon age where people want things done right the 409 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:31,120 Speaker 2: same day they want to they want to order something 410 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:32,719 Speaker 2: that show up at the door in an hour. Like 411 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,439 Speaker 2: that's insane that it's gotten to this point. But you know, 412 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 2: at the end of the day, Trump has a plan. 413 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 2: I believe in the guy on a business sense, the 414 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,119 Speaker 2: guy knows what he's doing. And clearly this is just 415 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:46,360 Speaker 2: really bringing countries to the table to negotiate to try 416 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 2: to better things for America. Can it be a temporary bruise? 417 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 2: Can it hurt a little bit? It's some things, you know, 418 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,400 Speaker 2: be affected absolutely, and we see that a little bit. 419 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, like you see 420 00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,160 Speaker 2: China kind of maybe saying all right, we're gonna we're 421 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 2: going to ease up a little bit, We're gonna open 422 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 2: our doors, and you have other countries saying, hey, we're 423 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 2: gonna we're gonna make things a little bit more even. 424 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 2: And that's ultimately Trump's goal here. It's because you know, 425 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 2: the US just seems to always get screwed, whether it's NATO, 426 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 2: whether it's tariffs, whatever it is, Like we're the ones 427 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 2: always put in the bill, and it's about time that 428 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:17,920 Speaker 2: you know, there's a little bit more even playing field 429 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,400 Speaker 2: for America, that we start bringing some money back into 430 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 2: our countries and helping you know, truly the Americans. But 431 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 2: I mean, inflation is there's no doubt. You go to 432 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 2: the grocery store, there's things that are still up and 433 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 2: there's a lot that's come down. I mean, they've done 434 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,640 Speaker 2: a good job at bringing some of the like price 435 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:34,919 Speaker 2: of groceries down. But is it still up? Yes, But 436 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,679 Speaker 2: does inflation impact us year over year? Is that a 437 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 2: normal thing? It is? And people like you said, tend 438 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 2: to forget about that. You look at a housing market 439 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:44,880 Speaker 2: is housing markets still up a little bit, but it's 440 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 2: starting to come down. I think there's a lot of 441 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 2: a lot of moving parts to this, and we really 442 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 2: need to just see how this ultimately plays out. 443 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, and regardless what happens, the lids will say no 444 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,880 Speaker 1: Trump bad, Orange Man bad. We hate everything he's doing. 445 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 1: Speaking of speaking of Trump, and I'm actually really curious 446 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: to get your take on this. I'm gonna try to 447 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 1: sound as as not gay as possible, but Steve, you're 448 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 1: you're as masculine of a man physically that I think 449 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 1: anybody I know I would not want to run into 450 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: you in a dark alley having wronged someone else. You know, 451 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: part of that kind of is is how men deal 452 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,679 Speaker 1: with certain things. And last week nobody was a stranger 453 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 1: to the big blow up between Elon Musk and President Trump. 454 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 1: Last night. In a tweet must apologize, he said, I 455 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 1: regret some of my posts about President Donald Trump last week. 456 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 1: They went too far. And that's after he deleted his 457 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,359 Speaker 1: post about the Epstein files. Trump then responded, I'm glad 458 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: he did that. So I don't know of two bigger 459 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:52,920 Speaker 1: personalities and more kind of rough and tumble guys and 460 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:55,160 Speaker 1: they seem to be, you know, working it out and 461 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: hopefully they can kind of come back to the table 462 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: as a as a guy in kind of this masculine space. 463 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 1: You know, what do arguments look like? Because a bunch 464 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 1: of people freaked out about this, I was kind of like, yeah, 465 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 1: this is these are two heavy weights duking it out 466 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:14,439 Speaker 1: and eventually they'll figure it out, which I think is 467 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: a big component of masculinity. The libs generally love to 468 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: kind of ignore that part. It's just toxic and awful. No, 469 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 1: but this is how you solve problems, and problems eventually 470 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 1: get resolved. 471 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 2: Agree. I agree. And I think in today's day and age, 472 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 2: everybody feels like the keyboard warriors, I call it. You know, 473 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 2: they can make a comment and threaten somebody not being 474 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 2: you know, being threatened a bit, hit in the face 475 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 2: or smashed. I remember, you know, we didn't have that 476 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 2: back in the day, but if you made a comment 477 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,399 Speaker 2: to somebody that ticked them off, you might get hit 478 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 2: in the face, punching the face, and that was that 479 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 2: was justice back then. And but nowadays, you know, people 480 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 2: are a little bit more confident in their abilities because 481 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 2: they the keyboard warrior effect but like you said, who 482 00:23:56,880 --> 00:24:00,199 Speaker 2: knew two billionaires could beef harder than rappers? And it 483 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 2: looks like, you know, this could be the start of 484 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 2: a tech billionaire redemption tour. Who knows. But I think 485 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 2: I think was it a good look overall? No, I 486 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 2: think there could have been a better way for them 487 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:14,399 Speaker 2: to do it. And clearly, you know, Elon got his 488 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 2: panties in a bunch with some of the bills that 489 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 2: were being passed and different things being talked about, and 490 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 2: I understand, but at the end of the day, like 491 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:24,399 Speaker 2: you got to be a little bit more of a 492 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,680 Speaker 2: man behind it. And I really think like for him 493 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,679 Speaker 2: to think that he's going to go against the MAGA 494 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 2: movement not a good move. Like the MAGA movement is 495 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 2: so strong, regardless of it if it's Trump or whatever. 496 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 2: But like everybody is so like, want to see America 497 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 2: be great again, want to see America be prosperous, do 498 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 2: all these things if you're going to come at us 499 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,120 Speaker 2: as Americans, because that's our guy, Like you know what, 500 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 2: that's the guy flying the plane right now. And if 501 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 2: you're on the plane, scream and I hope you crashed 502 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 2: the plane. That's the we're gonna kick your ass off 503 00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,400 Speaker 2: the plane. Let's just be how it is. But at 504 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:02,200 Speaker 2: this point, like we have to the Americans, the maga 505 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:05,200 Speaker 2: got the maga. People that are pro America are behind 506 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 2: Trump and somebody kind of against him. Clearly, if it's 507 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 2: more of a little beef, We're going to take Trump's 508 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,080 Speaker 2: side on this. And uh, you know, I think Trump 509 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:15,919 Speaker 2: did did pretty good because I think some of the 510 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 2: things said we were way out there and you know, 511 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 2: not necessarily like there was a lot of proof behind 512 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 2: some of his stuff. So there was a lot of 513 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 2: speculation of what was going to be said, what was 514 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 2: going to be done, and sometimes people put too much 515 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 2: faith into man, you know, going back to the human component, 516 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 2: sometimes people put too much faith in a person. But clearly, 517 00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 2: you know, Elon came to his senses, realized he was wrong, 518 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 2: and this is you know, I think he's doing the 519 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 2: right thing. By let's squash this, let's coatin to move 520 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 2: forward in making America great again. 521 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, and now again, I think everybody even from the beginning, 522 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 1: was like, hey, they just disagree on something. I think 523 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,880 Speaker 1: they ultimately have the same goal in mind to make 524 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 1: America great again. But you know, disagreements happen, and thankfully 525 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:02,159 Speaker 1: resolutions also happened. Steve Kouklo, thanks so much for joining us. 526 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 1: Really appreciate you taking the time. 527 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:05,440 Speaker 2: Always love it. Joe Bob, thank you. 528 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 1: Thank you. Coming up next here on turning Point tonight, 529 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 1: We've got to fascinating clip Maux Clark's Culture Apothecary podcast, 530 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 1: and then it's Woke Wednesday. Oh cool, I'll be right back. 531 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 3: There is widespread belief that SSRIs cure depression. What is 532 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 3: the scientific consensus on whether or not SSRIs actually cure depression. 533 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 5: I think we've had like three decades of marketing tell 534 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 5: us that anxiety and depression due to chemical imbalances or 535 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,720 Speaker 5: genetic problems in our brain. We have never found that 536 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 5: this was just a marketing spin that was put out there. 537 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 5: And researchers have gone and they've collected all of the 538 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:53,640 Speaker 5: data together and there's no chemical imbalance there. So there's 539 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 5: no unifying cause of depression. That's why we don't use 540 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 5: tests in psychiatry. That's why when you go and see doctor, 541 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,159 Speaker 5: even if you go to like Harvard or Yale or 542 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 5: you know, one of these big tertiary medical centers, no 543 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 5: one's scanning your brain. Or measuring like the neurotransmitter metabolites, 544 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,880 Speaker 5: because it just doesn't correlate to anything. So and that's 545 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 5: important because when we think about what an antidepressant does 546 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:24,120 Speaker 5: is they disrupt your neurotransmitter systems. So like SSRIs, they 547 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 5: block serotonin reuptake to increase the amount of serotonin between 548 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 5: the neurons. That's not actually fixing any underlying problem because 549 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 5: an underlying problem like that has never been found for anyone. 550 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:37,879 Speaker 3: Well, one of my favorite things every single time I 551 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 3: talk about, you know, SSRIs and antidepressants and how they're 552 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 3: basically placebos and they don't do anything. You know, people 553 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 3: in my replies are like, how dare you an antidipressence 554 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 3: save my life? I have a chemical imbalance in my brain. 555 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 3: And my response to them always is, oh really, how 556 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,159 Speaker 3: do they test for that? What was the test like 557 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 3: to test for your chemical imbalance? They don't ever reply 558 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:59,120 Speaker 3: there was no test, it's fake. We're just told that. 559 00:27:59,480 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 1: Yeah. 560 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,119 Speaker 5: I mean, this is how the whole thing fits together, right, 561 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,400 Speaker 5: because the drugs do work. I mean I've taken them, 562 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,360 Speaker 5: my wife has taken them, and we've experienced their effects 563 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 5: first hand. I know you've taken them as well, and 564 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 5: you might have experienced a drug effect. They generally tend 565 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:17,719 Speaker 5: to do a few things. I mean things like lexapro SSRIs. 566 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:21,680 Speaker 5: They generally tend to be cause emotional construction or blunting 567 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 5: or numbing or something along that range. You know, things 568 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 5: like well beat and can be stimulating. Things like ramaron 569 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 5: can make people sort of blunted and kind of tired, 570 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:34,880 Speaker 5: but that can be experienced as therapeutic. Like if you're 571 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 5: a nervous nelly and there's a lot of stuff going 572 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 5: on in your life, and you take a drug to 573 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 5: sort of mask that, something that knocks out the highs, 574 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,240 Speaker 5: something that knocks out the lows. Your experience may be 575 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 5: this is better than what I was feeling before. I 576 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 5: feel more in control under this drug effect. And yes, 577 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 5: sure it's not fixing like the underlying problem that you had, 578 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 5: but it is making you feel better from the drug effect. However, 579 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 5: when you look at it like that, it also becomes 580 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:11,479 Speaker 5: really concerning from like a moral perspective, because effectively, what 581 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 5: we're doing is we're giving someone drugs to mask how 582 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 5: they feel. And there's all these sort of ramifications. 583 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 6: Because we're emotional. 584 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 5: Beings, right, you know, we care about our relationships with 585 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 5: others and our friends. You know, we care about the 586 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 5: work that we do and finding purpose and meaning in 587 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 5: our lives. If there are genuine things happening in our 588 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 5: life that need to be addressed for us to feel happy, 589 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 5: we don't want to numb those things. We don't want 590 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 5: to put a damper on those messages that are saying, hey, 591 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,760 Speaker 5: you know, something's not quite right, and it doesn't have 592 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 5: to just be emotional. I mean, there's problems in our 593 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 5: food at the moment that's making us sick, that's making 594 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 5: us inflamed, and that's also going to make people feel unwell. 595 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 5: The real issue is, I mean, we aren't. We have 596 00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 5: a mental health system that doesn't really care about get 597 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 5: geting to the root causes and helping people. We just 598 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:05,719 Speaker 5: sort of like paper over over symptoms. And so that 599 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 5: person in the comments who's just like it really helped me, 600 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 5: Sure it's helped you now. But where I sort of 601 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 5: come into this is I see what happens like ten 602 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 5: years down the line, twenty years down the line when 603 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 5: people want to come off. That's like a moment of 604 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 5: time and masking your sort of like your smoke detector 605 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 5: in your brain that's telling you like something's not right, 606 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:31,040 Speaker 5: you know, feel anxious, get curious. You mask that for 607 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 5: several decades you can end up in a very bad 608 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 5: place later on. 609 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:36,760 Speaker 3: What are the side effects and risks that we're not 610 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 3: told about whenever we get a prescription for an antidepressant. 611 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 5: The main ones that everyone should know and that unfortunately 612 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 5: aren't mentioned is some of these are quite uncommon, but 613 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:52,080 Speaker 5: they're serious when they happen. So the first one would 614 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 5: be post SSRI sexual dysfunction. And essentially this is a 615 00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 5: neurological injury that can occur when you're on the medication. 616 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 5: And typically what happens is someone will take the drug, 617 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 5: they'll experience sexual dysfunction. It's a very common side effect 618 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 5: for many antidepressants. I think like like seventy to ninety 619 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 5: percent of people will experience a decrease in libido. Men 620 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 5: will have things like a rectile dysfunction because of it. 621 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 5: But when they start to come off the medication, either 622 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 5: that doesn't get better or it gets worse. There's actually 623 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 5: something about coming off the drug that damages the nervous 624 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 5: system even more. And so these people will they'll be 625 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 5: on the drug, they'll have sexual dysfunction, they'll come off, 626 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 5: it will get worse, and they start to experience genital numbness, 627 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 5: and so they lose all I guess it's I mean, 628 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 5: it's called arogenous sensation, but it's just you know, your 629 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 5: private parts they feel differently than the skin on the 630 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 5: rest of your body. And they'll say it either feels 631 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:56,600 Speaker 5: numb like it's had anesthesia, or it feels like the 632 00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 5: sensation on the back of your hand. There's no erogeness 633 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 5: sense down there that feels good. The men will have 634 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 5: a lot of reptile dysfunction as well, they'll be less 635 00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 5: interested in sex. But the thing that these folks complain 636 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 5: about even more than the sexual problems, is that they 637 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 5: feel emotionally blunted and they have some mild cognitive impairments. 638 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 5: Sometimes actually it's not mild all the time. Sometimes it 639 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 5: can be bad, and they feel like it's almost like 640 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 5: their sensory system has been like totally turned down from this, 641 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 5: and they'll describe things like they're watching their life through 642 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 5: a TV, you know, and they'll lose things like when 643 00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 5: their favorite song comes on on the radio that they 644 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 5: used to listen to growing up, and you know, you'd 645 00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:42,160 Speaker 5: have this like prickle on the back of your neck 646 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 5: with just like nostalgia and joy, they'll lose that, you know, 647 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,719 Speaker 5: when they hug their children or when they hug someone 648 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,920 Speaker 5: that they love like a family member, they don't feel 649 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 5: those those warm emotions anymore. And they describe just walking around, 650 00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 5: you know, they have sexual dysfunction and they're super numb. 651 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 5: For many people, this doesn't go away. This actually has 652 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 5: quite a bad prognosis. A lot of the other things 653 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 5: that we may talk about. The prognosis is kind of 654 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 5: better and like the withdrawal injuries, but for many people 655 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 5: with PSSD, yes, some will get better, you know, in 656 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,480 Speaker 5: a couple of years. But there are people that have 657 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:19,120 Speaker 5: been suffering from this for years, and particularly in the 658 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 5: United States, people are not told about that. And it's 659 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:26,160 Speaker 5: in vast contrast to the rest of the world where 660 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 5: this is in the drug labels and doctors are wanting 661 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 5: them about it. 662 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,920 Speaker 3: Wait, PSSD is not in the drug labels for these 663 00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:33,720 Speaker 3: in the United. 664 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:36,040 Speaker 6: States, PSSD is not in the drug label. 665 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 3: I am shocked to hear that. I did not know that. 666 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 3: How is that possible? 667 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 1: Why? 668 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:45,239 Speaker 5: I mean, this is going to almost feel like, you know, 669 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:47,360 Speaker 5: like that that the matrix scene, you know, where it's like, 670 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:48,720 Speaker 5: do you want the red pill or do you want 671 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 5: the blue pills? 672 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 3: You want the red pill? 673 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 6: You want the red pill. Okay, So. 674 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 5: I I used to work in the pharmaceutical industry and 675 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 5: I used to work at the FDA as in the 676 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 5: Division of Psychiatry. He has a drug regulator. So I've 677 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 5: kind of seen what happens behind the scenes there. The 678 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 5: whole PSSD thing. I mean, it's been in the literature 679 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 5: for like twenty years, but around twenty fifteen, twenty sixteen, 680 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 5: David Healy's a psychiatrist in the UK, really great drug 681 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 5: safety researcher. He got like one hundred people plus who 682 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:23,239 Speaker 5: had PSSD. He interviewed them, he collected their stories. He 683 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 5: asked permission from their doctors to say, hey, you know, 684 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 5: were there any other explanations other than the drugs? The 685 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,360 Speaker 5: doctor said there weren't, and he said, hey, can I 686 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 5: include your name in this dossier? And then he sent 687 00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 5: it out to all of the medical agencies saying, I 688 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 5: think I've found a new side effect. It's called PSSD. 689 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,840 Speaker 5: It's very serious. And so there's these hundreds of patients 690 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,279 Speaker 5: and these doctors saying that it's real. So it goes 691 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:50,239 Speaker 5: to the EU, EUOPRUS, it goes to Australia, Australia Prus 692 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 5: that Hong Kong does, Canada does, and so we have 693 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 5: all these major drug regulators around the world doing it, 694 00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:59,480 Speaker 5: and then it comes to the FDA, and the FDA 695 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 5: puts it on ice. It went in there in twenty 696 00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:05,800 Speaker 5: eighteen and no one picked it up at all. It 697 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 5: just sort of sat there on the back burner. Now, 698 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,840 Speaker 5: the reason for this is that psychiatrists in the US, 699 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:15,200 Speaker 5: and this includes psychiatrists in the FDA, they are so 700 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:19,799 Speaker 5: captured by the pharmaceutical industry that they act more like 701 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:23,480 Speaker 5: advocates for the drug than actual scientists. They don't want 702 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 5: to find problems with them because it's very uncomfortable and 703 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:31,319 Speaker 5: inconvenient for them, and so they sort of just like 704 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:34,160 Speaker 5: let it sit on the side. And they haven't addressed it, 705 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,120 Speaker 5: which is insane if you think about it. They haven't 706 00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:41,600 Speaker 5: even given a response. They got sued recently, but the 707 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:45,520 Speaker 5: lawsuit got dismissed. People from the PSSD Network along with 708 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 5: another nonprofit, was just like, you guys need to respond 709 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 5: to this, and you need to do it now. And 710 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:55,600 Speaker 5: so they're looking into it, but they haven't updated the 711 00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 5: labelshet because I think it's just going to be embarrassing 712 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:00,840 Speaker 5: and it's going to make them look very very bad. 713 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:01,920 Speaker 3: Well, who cares? 714 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:03,280 Speaker 4: People are freaking suffering? 715 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:07,520 Speaker 3: Does doctor Marty Mcarrie ahead of the FDA? Have you 716 00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:09,399 Speaker 3: ever spoken to him? Do you know if he knows 717 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:09,799 Speaker 3: about this? 718 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 4: No? 719 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 6: But I don't know if he knows about this. 720 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:15,719 Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, well I'll start the ball rolling. I'm going 721 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:17,640 Speaker 3: to make sure people tell them. Could you explain how 722 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:22,279 Speaker 3: the biochemical mechanisms behind SSRIs work in the brain and 723 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,320 Speaker 3: are these mechanisms fully understood. 724 00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:30,839 Speaker 5: The way SSRIs work is so they block serotonin reuptake 725 00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:34,400 Speaker 5: and so it increases the amount of serotonin between the neurons. 726 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:38,239 Speaker 5: And that sounds like very circumscribed and well defined, But 727 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 5: then there's a whole like you know, serotonin isn't functioning 728 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 5: like an island on its own in the brain. I 729 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 5: mean it's affecting all of our other neurotransmitters, neuropenephyrine, dopamine, 730 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:51,960 Speaker 5: estrogen hormones. I mean, we're essentially changing the way the 731 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:56,760 Speaker 5: brain functions. We don't actually know fully what these drugs 732 00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 5: are doing. 733 00:36:58,200 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 3: We don't. 734 00:36:58,800 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 6: We don't. 735 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,640 Speaker 3: I would think, like these have been around for so long, 736 00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 3: We've done a lot of scientific research on these drugs. 737 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:05,160 Speaker 6: It's hot to know. 738 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:08,759 Speaker 5: I mean the pot that I think is a lot 739 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 5: more concerning in terms of like what we don't know 740 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 5: about the drugs is actually what they do. 741 00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 1: Long time, Welcome back to Turning Point tonight. We're together. 742 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:26,799 Speaker 1: We are charting the course of America's cultural comeback, which 743 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:29,120 Speaker 1: is a course that needs desperately to be charted.

Here a turning point tonight, Charlie 803 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,120 Speaker 1: is gonna take us out. Thank you so much for 804 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:15,560 Speaker 1: tuning in each and every night. We'll see tomorrow, same time, 805 00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:29,880 Speaker 1: same place. God bless America. 806 00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:33,000 Speaker 7: I'm wearing the shirt this is what we voted for, 807 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:35,759 Speaker 7: which you guys can find at Charlie Kirk dot com 808 00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:37,600 Speaker 7: because this is what we voted for, and that is 809 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:42,080 Speaker 7: actually the theme and the open today, which is the stunning 810 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 7: and perplexing politics of immigration. You see, for almost all 811 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,600 Speaker 7: of my political career and for as long as I 812 00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 7: have memory, Democrats have had an advantage on immigration. There's 813 00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:59,640 Speaker 7: issues that they've always had advantages with us over climate, education, 814 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:04,600 Speaker 7: and immigration. They almost always have some format advantage. Interestingly enough, 815 00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:09,440 Speaker 7: education less and less. So remember that election where Governor 816 00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:13,040 Speaker 7: Younkin won in the Great State of Virginia. He became 817 00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:18,600 Speaker 7: the governor of Virginia with actual favorability advantage on the 818 00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:24,879 Speaker 7: issue of education. But on immigration, Democrats have always had 819 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:28,040 Speaker 7: us over a barrel by twenty points or thirty points 820 00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:31,719 Speaker 7: because what did Republicans stand for when it came to immigration? 821 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:34,799 Speaker 7: And this is the kicker everybody. If there is just 822 00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:38,200 Speaker 7: one thing that you remember that I tell you, it 823 00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 7: is how wrong, how fraudulent, how deceitful. The Jeb Bush, 824 00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:47,799 Speaker 7: Karl Rove perspective on immigration was can you guys get 825 00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 7: some of that tape here, Blake or Ryan, now that 826 00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:53,920 Speaker 7: I'm thinking of it. Back in twenty fourteen, twenty fifteen, 827 00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:56,800 Speaker 7: we had the Gang of Eight, and yes, Marco Rubio 828 00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:58,520 Speaker 7: is part of it, and he has come a long way, 829 00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:01,319 Speaker 7: and I'm Marco Rubio's biggest thing and supporter. But yes, 830 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 7: we had the Gang of Eight, and I remember it. 831 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,440 Speaker 7: This was the first couple of years I was involved 832 00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:11,920 Speaker 7: in politics, and it was it was unchallengeable dogma in 833 00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:16,839 Speaker 7: the Republican Party that we are going to lose Hispanics 834 00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:21,919 Speaker 7: forever if we do not pass massed amnesty. Now, see, 835 00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:25,319 Speaker 7: this was largely passed and was pushed, i should say, 836 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:29,320 Speaker 7: by the Koch brothers, by corporate interest, by the Chamber 837 00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:35,319 Speaker 7: of Commerce. This was largely being advanced by sinister multinational 838 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:39,080 Speaker 7: corporations that didn't actually care about the politics. They wanted 839 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:42,239 Speaker 7: cheap labor, and the Democrats were like, sure, you want 840 00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:48,279 Speaker 7: cheap labor, we want cheap votes marriage made in heaven. Instead, 841 00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:53,800 Speaker 7: what was created is a weapon of mass migration, not 842 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:58,120 Speaker 7: a weapon of mass destruction. A weapon of mass migration. 843 00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:05,319 Speaker 7: And Jeb Bush and all of the Republican orthodoxy was 844 00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:08,279 Speaker 7: an every single donor believe this. We need to win 845 00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:10,760 Speaker 7: back Hispanics, and by doing so, we have to calm 846 00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:14,160 Speaker 7: down our rhetoric and immigration. This is, without a doubt, 847 00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:19,479 Speaker 7: one of the greatest missteps, one of the greatest errors 848 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:24,200 Speaker 7: in modern, if not all, of the conservative movement. Almost 849 00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:28,000 Speaker 7: everybody fell for this, and honestly, I was twenty years 850 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:29,440 Speaker 7: old at the time. I was twenty one years old 851 00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:29,759 Speaker 7: at time. 852 00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:31,319 Speaker 1: I kind of fell forward too. 853 00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:32,879 Speaker 7: I was like, well, do we need to water down 854 00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:35,440 Speaker 7: our language and do we need to be more compassionate 855 00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:39,000 Speaker 7: because a lot of Latinos and Hispanics they seem to 856 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,120 Speaker 7: be for open borders and they have friends that have 857 00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:45,040 Speaker 7: come here illegally, and we were It was a ruse everybody. 858 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:50,760 Speaker 7: It was a major scam. Paul Ryan and John McCain, 859 00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:56,759 Speaker 7: all of the moderate apparatics, we're together saying we must 860 00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:59,399 Speaker 7: do this or else we're gonna lose Hispanics ninety ten, 861 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:03,120 Speaker 7: it'll be like Black America. And they were fear mongering, 862 00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:06,560 Speaker 7: and they were blackmailing us, saying you must do mass 863 00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:10,840 Speaker 7: amnesty right now, or else you will be a minority 864 00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:14,879 Speaker 7: party forever. And you'll never win back Hispanics. And ten 865 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:19,080 Speaker 7: years ago to this month, the most consistent political candidate 866 00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:23,320 Speaker 7: that we've ever seen, Donald Trump changed everything. He said, Nope, 867 00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:27,360 Speaker 7: they're illegals, many of them are rapists, they're thugs, they're terrible. 868 00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:29,719 Speaker 7: We're gonna build a wall. Mexico will pay for it. 869 00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:33,440 Speaker 7: We're new mass deportations. And he has unwavered in that commitment. 870 00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:36,719 Speaker 7: And then we were told by the moderates in the 871 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:41,000 Speaker 7: Republican Party, oh, you guys are gonna lose US majorities. 872 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:43,520 Speaker 7: You're gonna lose elections if you talk like this, and 873 00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:47,680 Speaker 7: Hispanics will turn against you. Turns out the exact opposite 874 00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:51,440 Speaker 7: was actually the case. It turns out that the more 875 00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:56,879 Speaker 7: aggressive and hawkish that we got on immigration, the more 876 00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:00,960 Speaker 7: Hispanics were coming our way. The more aggressive and hawkishit 877 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:05,040 Speaker 7: we got an immigration We finally, for the first time ever, 878 00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:08,680 Speaker 7: are beating Democrats on the issue of immigration. It turns out, 879 00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:13,799 Speaker 7: at the core Americans are actually very, very supportive of 880 00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:17,960 Speaker 7: mass deportations. And what I love is that the Democrats 881 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:22,480 Speaker 7: they're continually pulling this or there's no way America. No, 882 00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:27,000 Speaker 7: that's true, America actually wants door by door, block by block, 883 00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:30,600 Speaker 7: mass deportations, and the Democrats they don't quite understand this. 884 00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:34,560 Speaker 7: Here is Amy Walter from the Cook Political Report, who 885 00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:39,400 Speaker 7: accurately says, this is the first time ever we've seen this. 886 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:42,760 Speaker 7: Democrats used to have an advantage over Trump and immigration. 887 00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,600 Speaker 7: They have a disadvantage. Now play cut four twenty two. 888 00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:49,960 Speaker 9: California maybe first, but it clearly will not end here. 889 00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:55,120 Speaker 9: Other states are next. Democracy is next. California will keep fighting. 890 00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 9: We'll keep fighting on behalf of our people, all of 891 00:45:58,040 --> 00:45:59,879 Speaker 9: our people, including in the court. 892 00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:02,080 Speaker 7: Okay, that is not what I wanted. Somebody said it 893 00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:04,640 Speaker 7: was for twenty two. So whatever it is. Once we 894 00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:08,759 Speaker 7: find Amy Walter, let me know. I don't want to 895 00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:12,319 Speaker 7: hear Devin Newsom. Can we play for twenty two? 896 00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:15,640 Speaker 1: Please? Is it for fortyus? You're going forward? 897 00:46:15,719 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 8: I think is how Democrats do talk about these issues. 898 00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:24,120 Speaker 8: It's going to be really important for the you know, 899 00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:26,960 Speaker 8: not just what's happening today in Los Angeles, but just 900 00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:29,000 Speaker 8: writ large. I think there has been a lot of 901 00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:33,720 Speaker 8: pullback and a lot of hand ringing from Democrats about 902 00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:36,640 Speaker 8: an issue which they used to have an advantage on 903 00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:38,839 Speaker 8: during the Trump's first term. 904 00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:39,359 Speaker 3: They have a. 905 00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:42,839 Speaker 8: Disadvantage on Now this issue isn't going away, and how 906 00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:47,160 Speaker 8: Democrats respond to whether this is going to happen in 907 00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:51,320 Speaker 8: other states, how they address concerns about safety and security 908 00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:55,120 Speaker 8: that is going to be critical just for the next 909 00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:57,280 Speaker 8: for well forever long. 910 00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:00,680 Speaker 1: It's been flipped. 911 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:05,279 Speaker 7: Remember the RNC autopsy report of twenty thirteen. It's funny. 912 00:47:05,320 --> 00:47:07,080 Speaker 7: I actually went to one of those meetings. I was 913 00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:11,240 Speaker 7: brought to one of those RNC donor meetings by Mike Miller. 914 00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:14,680 Speaker 7: One of my dear friends runs MJ. Miller Jewelers in 915 00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:18,640 Speaker 7: the suburbs of Chicago in Barrington, Illinois, which I encourage 916 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:19,719 Speaker 7: you guys to go to if you need to have 917 00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:21,719 Speaker 7: any jewelry needs. He actually did our wedding ring and 918 00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:23,560 Speaker 7: many other things. But he brought me to the RNC 919 00:47:23,640 --> 00:47:26,239 Speaker 7: autopsy report in Chicago because Ryan's previous who I really like. 920 00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:28,440 Speaker 1: He was doing a road show. 921 00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:30,960 Speaker 7: Just here's the report, here's the data, and he was 922 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,600 Speaker 7: going to meet with donors because people were very, very 923 00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:37,320 Speaker 7: upset with what happened in twenty twelve. And this is 924 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:41,840 Speaker 7: what was in the official RNC autops report autopsy report 925 00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:45,680 Speaker 7: in twenty thirteen. Quote among the steps Republicans must take 926 00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:49,000 Speaker 7: in the Hispanic community and beyond. We must embrace and 927 00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:53,880 Speaker 7: champion comprehensive immigration reform. If we do not, our party's 928 00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:57,440 Speaker 7: appeal will continue to shrink to its core constituencies only
