Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.
Speaker 2: Arm Strong and Gatty and he Armstrong and Yetty.
Speaker 3: President Trump wants the water end, and he wants all
Speaker 3: those hostages released, including those six Americans now Nanna who
Speaker 3: still weighing the possibility of another round of fighting in
Speaker 3: Gaza as Hermas shows, they are still in control of
Speaker 3: the streets there and that will be a point of
Speaker 3: contention with the President. The two leaders also expect you
Speaker 3: to discuss Iran and a potential normalization deal between Israel
Speaker 3: and Saudi Arabia.
Speaker 4: Man was Lindsey Graham, a Senator from South Carolina. I
Speaker 4: declare hawkish on Iran yesterday and talking about how now
Speaker 4: is the time for Israel to take out Iran's nuclear facilities,
Speaker 4: and yes we would help them, so we'll see. I
Speaker 4: don't know if that's a plan or not. If I
Speaker 4: had to bet money, I would guess that it probably is.
Speaker 4: Ram as it started a war.
Speaker 1: By lunchtime, he's sad.
Speaker 2: The rest of the day, he's or manger Jack Neocon.
Speaker 4: Number of things to go through the Secretary of State
Speaker 4: Marco Rubio announced that Panama won't renew their Belt and
Speaker 4: Road agreement with China, making it the first Latin American
Speaker 4: nation to leave that initiative and get on the side
Speaker 4: of the United States. That's not a minor deal. Start
Speaker 4: to turn that around.
Speaker 1: Also, and I must repeat for the empty time, as
Speaker 1: this was given to me by somebody who's fluident in
Speaker 1: Mandarin said it's mistranslated. It's one belt, one road.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's good stuff.
Speaker 4: Also, Marco Rubio's office announcing on Trump's greenland ambitions. This
Speaker 4: is not a joke. This is not about acquiring land
Speaker 4: for the purpose of acquiring land. This is international interest.
Speaker 4: So he's one hundred percent serious about the whole trying
Speaker 4: to figure out a way to have greenland there.
Speaker 1: You know, the The Wall Street Journal had a great
Speaker 1: you know how modern paper websites. They have some articles that, like,
Speaker 1: you read and then there's an illustration and as you scroll,
Speaker 1: the illustration changes and there's a caption and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: It's kind of cool, interactive multimedia whatever. And they had
Speaker 1: a really good piece about the Arctic and the ice
Speaker 1: how it's shrinking, and the roots and the military bases
Speaker 1: and the trade routes and what China's doing up there,
Speaker 1: and what Russia's doing up there.
Speaker 2: But the one thing, because.
Speaker 1: You never look at the globe from that angle, really
Speaker 1: is you realize, you know, famously, Russia and Alaska, which
Speaker 1: is ours, are fifty seven miles apart, and the Arctic Circle.
Speaker 1: You've got like Norway right across the North Pole from Russia,
Speaker 1: and there's the US and there's Canada. I mean, we're
Speaker 1: all like neighbors at the top of the world. And
Speaker 1: so controlling those roots is going to be enormous for
Speaker 1: commerce and military effectiveness. And on the other side of
Speaker 1: that coint if anybody decides to be a dick about it,
Speaker 1: they can really disrupt pure commerce and or military preparedness.
Speaker 4: Well, especially in a couple of years when it's like
Speaker 4: seventy five degrees up there and you know, everybody's vacation
Speaker 4: in there and living there.
Speaker 2: Now, I got a vacation booked up there right.
Speaker 4: Some of the big news of the day the tariffs
Speaker 4: who are supposed to start tomorrow on you got ten
Speaker 4: percent on China and I think it's twenty five percent
Speaker 4: on Canada and Mexico. Well, but Mexican one is being delayed.
Speaker 4: The President came around and agreed to something. Critics are
Speaker 4: saying she was going to do it anyway, but whatever.
Speaker 4: She's sent in ten thousand troops to the border and
Speaker 4: so the Mexican tariffs will be delayed. And then this
Speaker 4: headline that just came out this morning, Infantry, marines and
Speaker 4: other US troops have begun arriving at the US Naval
Speaker 4: base in git Mo, Cuba, and was expected to be
Speaker 4: an operation to house migrants, it says here in the
Speaker 4: Washington Post. And so the Trump administration sends them to
Speaker 4: their home countries. They're illegal immigrants and their criminal in
Speaker 4: addition to be illegal criminal illegal immigrants.
Speaker 1: He's to be house green and the term migrants until
Speaker 1: next month, when we're gonna call them honeybear angels.
Speaker 2: So that's an exciting story. And I don't know how
Speaker 2: long this will keep up.
Speaker 4: But Trump's approval rating right now is forty six percent.
Speaker 4: At this time first term, he was at thirty six percent.
Speaker 4: He's a full ten points higher that he was at
Speaker 4: this point in his first term. That's something a non
Speaker 4: political story I'm kind of interested in. They think they
Speaker 4: found a new van go did you see this was
Speaker 4: one of these stories that happens every now and then.
Speaker 4: Person bought this for fifty bucks, had it in the
Speaker 4: garage for many, many years. Wow, they think it's one
Speaker 4: of the many he painted a several hundred that last
Speaker 4: year he was alive in the mental institution. He just
Speaker 4: went on van Go, just went on this. He was
Speaker 4: like a painting a day and some of his most paintings,
Speaker 4: famous paintings came.
Speaker 2: Out of there. Irises and a whole bunch of them.
Speaker 4: Starry Night came out of that painting a day out
Speaker 4: of his mind, mental institution period. Wow, this is a
Speaker 4: much more normal painting. But they think it's a van Go.
Speaker 4: They've spent tens of thousands of dollars trying to authenticate
Speaker 4: it by doing all kinds of imaging to look under
Speaker 4: the paint and talking to artists about brushstrokes. But they
Speaker 4: think it is an actual van Go from that period,
Speaker 4: and if so, it's worth between fifteen and thirty million dollars.
Speaker 4: This painting somebody bought for fifty bucks.
Speaker 1: You didn't think that could still spend whatever it took
Speaker 1: to authenticate it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you know.
Speaker 1: I actually I really enjoy his paintings and they are
Speaker 1: weirdly brilliant and beautiful. I think, I honestly think that.
Speaker 1: On the other hand, like we talk about parallel universe
Speaker 1: versus once in a while, and it's very hard for
Speaker 1: me to comprehend and accept it's crazy people talking. But
Speaker 1: if there's a parallel universe where people say, yeah, he's
Speaker 1: kind of a crazy guy and his paintings are kind
Speaker 1: of pretty, but he's not significant, I mean, that would
Speaker 1: be like the tiniest eyelash of a change from this
Speaker 1: current universe. That sort of art is either brilliant and
Speaker 1: celebrated worth thirty million dollars, or stuff that looks precisely
Speaker 1: like it is worthless.
Speaker 2: He was a hack, and who gets to decide. I
Speaker 2: don't get. It's always seemed very odd to me at
Speaker 2: the time.
Speaker 4: They didn't dig it in his own brother thought, you
Speaker 4: use too much paint. That's you gotta do something. You're
Speaker 4: never gonna make a living at this. So AnyWho, James
Speaker 4: Carville gets quoted a lot on Fox because he bad
Speaker 4: mouths the Democrats all the time, even though he helped
Speaker 4: get Bill Clinton elected. In an interview today, said that
Speaker 4: Joe Biden reigns like a colossus over the democratic failure
Speaker 4: right now, that stated the Democratic Party, reporting on the
Speaker 4: fact that the Democrats are the most unpopular they've ever
Speaker 4: been as a party. Democrats are the most unpopular they
Speaker 4: have ever been as a party, and Carville says that
Speaker 4: Biden reigns as a colossus over that, and he criticized
Speaker 4: the Democrats for starting a seventh string quarterback Kamala Harris
Speaker 4: in the Super Bowl election.
Speaker 2: I just like that pretty good description. Yeah, seventh string,
Speaker 2: that's good down there.
Speaker 1: And then to mention once again that the guy just
Speaker 1: elected this past weekend to lead the dnsa DNC. He
Speaker 1: said she didn't get elected because of misogyny and racism,
Speaker 1: even as minorities of all stripes leave the Democratic Party
Speaker 1: as fast as they can.
Speaker 2: That's uh.
Speaker 1: Either he's a super canny strategist with a you know,
Speaker 1: a diabolical strategy that I just can't grasp, which I
Speaker 1: don't think is the case, or he's delusional and bubbled.
Speaker 1: I mean, like beyond my wildest dreams, because I want
Speaker 1: conservative ideas to hold sway for as long as possible.
Speaker 1: But can you imagine I think I believe Kamala Harris,
Speaker 1: I think they believe it.
Speaker 4: I can't imagine that. I can't imagine why you'd be
Speaker 4: saying it at this point unless you just believed it.
Speaker 1: I mean, when Bob Dole lost, I didn't think it
Speaker 1: was elder abuse and an anti kens and bias. I
Speaker 1: thought he wasn't a terribly charismatic candidate. You know, Mitt Romney.
Speaker 1: I get exactly why Mitt Romney lost. I think it's
Speaker 1: a damn shame, but I get it. Yeah, they're just
Speaker 1: cuckoo nuts, which again is good news for conservatism.
Speaker 4: How are you watching the super Bowl on Sunday or
Speaker 4: super Bowl on Sunday? Do you say the or just
Speaker 4: super Bowl?
Speaker 1: I say the the super Bowl like it's always been
Speaker 1: and always must be.
Speaker 2: How are you watching super Bowl on Sunday? Oh, you're
Speaker 2: an ass? I don't know. I have a moral dilemma
Speaker 2: because I.
Speaker 1: Accept an invitation of super Bowl Party, a that I've
Speaker 1: gone to the first several years super Bowl party. B
Speaker 1: Judy and I got an invite to and we kind
Speaker 1: of sort of no show down their last gathering.
Speaker 4: People be there's a simple way the way you figure
Speaker 4: this out which party would be the most fun, and
Speaker 4: then you go to the Oh and you claim you're
Speaker 4: sick to the other party.
Speaker 2: Oh boy, oh lord, I wish I could come. I'm sick.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna miss the whole game. And then you go
Speaker 2: to the fun party.
Speaker 1: I think we'll divide and conquer, go to both. Wow
Speaker 1: going to two parts, or Judy will go to the one,
Speaker 1: then I'll go to the other for a while.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: We'll figure it out, but I don't want to. I'm
Speaker 1: very sensitive about offending people. Plus, obviously I am the
Speaker 1: real get at your party. So if you had any
Speaker 1: idea how not true that was, you'd understand that funny
Speaker 1: that was.
Speaker 4: Well, super Bowl is such a long day. If you
Speaker 4: do some of the pregame and then the way they
Speaker 4: drag out the game, it's like gonna be at least
Speaker 4: four hours at least. See easily split that into two parties.
Speaker 2: Right right.
Speaker 1: You want to know the truth about me showing up
Speaker 1: at a social gathering, I'll walk in the door in
Speaker 1: the hostel whisper to a couple of friends.
Speaker 2: Don't bring up tariffs. Just don't bring up and somebody
Speaker 2: will say, hey, how about Trump, what he's done? Oh no, no,
Speaker 2: I'll start.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you the thing about Tariff's friends, and everybody's like,
Speaker 1: oh no.
Speaker 4: I'd wind somebody up. I'd walk into the room. Well,
Speaker 4: fascism seems to be on the rise, doesn't anyway. I
Speaker 4: gotta go get some chips and then just let you
Speaker 4: do your thing.
Speaker 2: Just to punish everybody else in the room. Hilarious.
Speaker 4: I'm doing pretty good with no Wine February so far.
Speaker 4: I'm only three days in, but I don't think I've
Speaker 4: done any whining yet.
Speaker 2: Wine with it.
Speaker 4: H that's no Wine February. I'm trying to do it,
Speaker 4: and I'm trying to get my kids to do it too.
Speaker 4: They're not doing as well, but we'll see. It's a
Speaker 4: hard habit to break.
Speaker 1: About some things, right, How has it gone identifying legitimate
Speaker 1: expression of discontent versus whining?
Speaker 2: Is that a hard.
Speaker 1: Line to find a lot of gray area? Has it
Speaker 1: been fairly easy?
Speaker 4: I do a better job of it with other people
Speaker 4: than myself, with my kids than myself. Right, they're whining
Speaker 4: about what I made them for deal. I consider that
Speaker 4: for dinner. I consider that whining.
Speaker 2: Yes, Katie, I'm.
Speaker 5: Just gonna say I recall a little bit of whining
Speaker 5: about the.
Speaker 2: Weather during this show. True.
Speaker 4: I don't know if I don't know if I can
Speaker 4: apply it to the program. That is sort of how
Speaker 4: I'm made my living. So my whining, yeah, exactly, whining things.
Speaker 2: In the news. Then I offer brave leadership to a
Speaker 2: better tomorrow. That's kind of the in and yang of
Speaker 2: this thing. A lot of whining is a habit though
Speaker 2: it really really is.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, how specific do I want to be?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 1: Complaining is a major facet of conversation among certain groups
Speaker 1: of people, and they like reinforced that were but.
Speaker 2: No not chicks. That's it's like a bonding thing.
Speaker 1: But I just all the negative energy just wears me
Speaker 1: at after a while, like, yeah, things aren't perfect, Okay,
Speaker 1: can we focus on the positive?
Speaker 2: You know, try it at home?
Speaker 4: See you let them let us know in the text
Speaker 4: line of the email, how it goes. You're no wine
Speaker 4: February do one day? Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's where you
Speaker 4: gotta start one day. There is another little bit of
Speaker 4: breaking tariff news. Is Canada gonna cave before midnight tonight
Speaker 4: when the big Canadian tariffs hit. I no longer can
Speaker 4: afford mounty hats, hockey pucks, and maple syrup.
Speaker 1: And as the one hundred and first Airborne reached Greenland
Speaker 1: yet exactly suppressed their belligerence.
Speaker 2: We'll have the answer to all those questions. Next Yetie for.
Speaker 6: Best Pop Vocal Album, and the Grammy.
Speaker 2: Goes to Short and Sweet Sabrina.
Speaker 6: The Best bet Harba Alligator Bike never.
Speaker 3: A Dodge for Best Country Album, Cowboy Carter.
Speaker 2: The Grammy Award for Best New Artist goes to.
Speaker 7: Per Record of the Year, Not like Us, Kendrick Lamar for.
Speaker 3: The Song of the Year, Kendrick Lamar, not like Us for.
Speaker 6: Album of the Year, Cowboy Carter, Extreme Beyond so to
Speaker 6: be on.
Speaker 2: I don't like that Kenberg Lamar won that stuff. He's
Speaker 2: a fan.
Speaker 4: I usually dig deep into some of the other nominees
Speaker 4: and winners, like you know, the America Kana category or
Speaker 4: that sort of stuff that I'm into, and usually discover
Speaker 4: some really good, good music.
Speaker 2: That way, excellent. Why Beyonce has the best country album
Speaker 2: in America? I have no idea. I listened to some
Speaker 2: of the album last night. I thought it was very
Speaker 2: artistic and cool.
Speaker 4: I would not have called it country if you hadn't
Speaker 4: told me ahead of time.
Speaker 2: It would have never crossed my mind. So oh interesting, Yeah, Okay,
Speaker 2: although it.
Speaker 4: Does have Willie Nelson and Dolly Parton on it, So
Speaker 4: I suppose that's the not I don't know.
Speaker 2: It's a bit of a stretch. Sorry.
Speaker 1: I was just sitting here pouting that you took one
Speaker 1: for the team by watching the brilliant Bob Dylan movie,
Speaker 1: and I took one for the team watching the Cartel
Speaker 1: Boss Becomes a transgender movie. Really got the short end
Speaker 1: of that stick out. Yeah, just like the Cartel Boss.
Speaker 1: I'd watched the Dylan movie again. I loved it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to seeing that of singing. This is
Speaker 1: the DNC Leadership Conference over the weekend. Michael, how about
Speaker 1: twenty seven? These are a couple of geeks. His names
Speaker 1: you wouldn't know anyway.
Speaker 2: We'll begin with the opening statements.
Speaker 1: Each candidate will have thirty seconds, and we'll start with
Speaker 1: doctor Quintessa Hathaway.
Speaker 2: Good evening everyone. It is my desire to be the
Speaker 2: next DNC chair.
Speaker 4: And I just want to give you all a little
Speaker 4: bit of something that's been on my heart here.
Speaker 2: Over the last couple of days.
Speaker 6: You fed all, you fired, all, you fighted, all you.
Speaker 2: Fighted, all is everybody just looking at your.
Speaker 6: Government is doing you roll? You fed on whoa you
Speaker 6: fired all?
Speaker 2: Hell yeah, I'm vote for because she sings good? Were
Speaker 2: they all?
Speaker 4: Is everybody just looking at each other like are we
Speaker 4: supposed to sing along? Did they hand out lyric sheets?
Speaker 4: Does they may know what's going on?
Speaker 2: Only the Democrats? Can you imagine?
Speaker 1: We're there at the RNCA trying to come up and
Speaker 1: I Joe Getty would like to be your chairman.
Speaker 7: Hero Burst foreign policy is good for trade and national security, and.
Speaker 1: Everybody like, oh I love this song.
Speaker 2: Vote for him? Oh Lord? Where the adults? Doctor Quintessa Hathaway?
Speaker 2: Oh boy? Oh well? Whatever at Christy Nome speaking politics
Speaker 2: a cowboy hat yesterday? I like that? Oh boy? Oh boy?
Speaker 1: Announced yesterday in an internal DHS memo that roughly three
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty thousand Venezuelan's currently living in the United
Speaker 1: States will temporarily or lose temporary protected status, as the
Speaker 1: quote extraordinary and temporary conditions in their home country that
Speaker 1: have allowed them to reside in the United States no
Speaker 1: longer exist.
Speaker 2: And then there's.
Speaker 1: Another two hundred and fifty thousand that will retain protection
Speaker 1: through the fall.
Speaker 4: Now are they the Venezuelans are claiming some sort of
Speaker 4: We're trying to claim asylum right because our country is
Speaker 4: such a mess.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, and a lot of it's legit, and a
Speaker 1: lot of them are really nice people who want to
Speaker 1: work hard and give a better life to the family.
Speaker 2: But we have immigration laws as the thing.
Speaker 1: A lot of them are gang members too, and the
Speaker 1: fact that they've been allowed to stay is absolutely obscene
Speaker 1: and Biden ought to be in Leavenworth Prison for it.
Speaker 4: And if you don't like the current immigration laws, you
Speaker 4: think they're too tight or whatever, you should vote for
Speaker 4: people who want to change them. The laws should be
Speaker 4: changed by Congress. Whatever the laws are, though, we should
Speaker 4: enforce them.
Speaker 1: But over on the left side of the aisle, where
Speaker 1: doctor Quinn Tessa Hathaway is warbling tunefully, they're encouraging these
Speaker 1: anti ice demonstrations around the country, which may have brought
Speaker 1: a freeway near you to a stand still over the weekend.
Speaker 2: We'll talk to you about that, honey.
Speaker 1: Well.
Speaker 4: They will shut down the one oh one in Los
Speaker 4: Angeles on a Sunday in traffic of course, as always.
Speaker 2: In LA area.
Speaker 4: Was a disaster before they shut it down, and certainly after.
Speaker 4: I don't know why we ever put up with this stuff.
Speaker 4: I just learned something interesting about how the LAPD handled
Speaker 4: it though, among other things.
Speaker 8: On the way stay with us, Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 2: So which one is that Michael mind drumming and chanting
Speaker 2: right there? Huh Okay.
Speaker 4: So that's some of the protests across the country, people
Speaker 4: protesting against the deportation that's going on right now. Here's
Speaker 4: a little more from La where the protesters were able
Speaker 4: to shut down the one on one freeway and be
Speaker 4: a nuisance for many many people just trying to live
Speaker 4: their lives.
Speaker 2: It was a giant crowd.
Speaker 4: I mean, it was a big enough crowd to shut
Speaker 4: down the one on one go in both directions and
Speaker 4: many roads on either side of it.
Speaker 2: Now, I did just save it.
Speaker 1: Mexican flags chanting Mexico, Mexico.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna read some of the news coverage of it
Speaker 4: a little bit in the signs and all that.
Speaker 2: Sort of stuff.
Speaker 4: But I just saw a video of the police presence
Speaker 4: was overwhelming. The number of LAPD they had their in
Speaker 4: riot gear underneath the overpass.
Speaker 2: I mean, it was impressive.
Speaker 4: But they let it go all day long for some reason,
Speaker 4: with police spokesmen saying while we were there in case
Speaker 4: things got ugly, but it was a mostly peaceful protest,
Speaker 4: although they kept admitting over and over that it was unpermitted.
Speaker 4: You're not permitted to shut down major thoroughfares in big
Speaker 4: cities and inconvenience people are trying to live their lives.
Speaker 4: But so as long as it doesn't get ugly, you
Speaker 4: just stand there in information and let it play out.
Speaker 4: I don't understand why we put up with it.
Speaker 1: Is a great source of frustration on the political right,
Speaker 1: including myself, in that you know, conservatives are just less
Speaker 1: likely to rally and protest and march and chance stuff,
Speaker 1: mostly because we have jobs.
Speaker 2: Exactly I win. I got there first anyway.
Speaker 8: Ah.
Speaker 1: But you know, if you have a smallish group of
Speaker 1: sincere people being lawless, the law will be enforced upon
Speaker 1: them and they will.
Speaker 2: Feel the weight of it.
Speaker 1: If you have a large group of people and potentially
Speaker 1: lawless and dangerous flounting the laws, the authorities will let
Speaker 1: you do it, and you could do it as much
Speaker 1: as you want.
Speaker 2: And that gets a little frustrating.
Speaker 4: Signs that said the real criminals in the White House.
Speaker 4: Another one read Jesus love thy neighbor.
Speaker 1: Wait, wait, wait, wait, you literally have a child rapist
Speaker 1: living on your block. You want a child rapist living
Speaker 1: there just because he came from a foreign land. You
Speaker 1: are so mentally ill, I would gladly help pay for
Speaker 1: your treatment.
Speaker 4: I don't know if there's any point in making apart
Speaker 4: individual signs, but Jesus said, love thy neighbor, not deport them.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's just dumb. Multiple streets were closed by.
Speaker 4: The police around one oh one to stop people from
Speaker 4: getting in a situation where they couldn't get the cars
Speaker 4: out or whatever. So very very disruptive all day long,
Speaker 4: five hours long. This thing lasted throughout the day, also
Speaker 4: chanting phrases such as nobody is illegal and Viva Mexico, Mexico.
Speaker 2: If you like it so well, do dot.
Speaker 4: Many Mexican flags were flown, along with several other nations
Speaker 4: flags flying. I don't see any US flags at times. Seriously,
Speaker 4: seriously now and.
Speaker 2: A steal man it for me.
Speaker 1: What are you expressing when you're waiving a Mexican flag
Speaker 1: demanding to be allowed to remain in the United States
Speaker 1: as a criminal well or on behalf of criminals. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that kind of complicates. I can't even find a good argument.
Speaker 1: I think what you're trying to say, is we're all
Speaker 1: of Mexican heritage, we're together on this and you can't
Speaker 1: stop us.
Speaker 2: It's defiance.
Speaker 5: Yes, Katie, not only were there nothing but Mexican flags,
Speaker 5: but they did light an American flag on fire.
Speaker 1: In a demand to stay in the United States. Right, Sorry,
Speaker 1: it's too much.
Speaker 4: At times, fireworks were heard bursting above the large crowd
Speaker 4: while demonstrators I'm reading from CBS News, while demonstrators leaned
Speaker 4: out of car windows and flew their flags and shouted
Speaker 4: along at the crowd, which translate to yes you can, Yes,
Speaker 4: you can come to this country illegally, and even if
Speaker 4: you're a criminal, stay here, and we'll go out of
Speaker 4: our way to shield you from the cops. Even if
Speaker 4: you're a rapist, wife beater, beef whatever, and you're here illegally.
Speaker 1: I'd asked we can, as Chilean's rob a bunch of
Speaker 1: houses in La Yes we can, as Venezuela moved trend
Speaker 1: the Ragua's operations to the United States, Yes we can.
Speaker 1: And if you're not one of those things, that's not
Speaker 1: what we're talking about. So why would you march in
Speaker 1: support of that? Because that's the only people being deported
Speaker 1: right now, although the lefty media has done a really
Speaker 1: good job. In fact, they came up on a couple
Speaker 1: of the unwatchable Sunday shows that there's fear in the
Speaker 1: immigrant community. People are afraid they'll be deported for walking
Speaker 1: down the street. They're carrying their papers with them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: where'd they get that idea? Well, Margaret Brennan from People
Speaker 1: Like You.
Speaker 4: I started the show today with they challenged anyone who
Speaker 4: can find me any media coverage that's neutral or pro
Speaker 4: these deportations, even though eighty five percent of Americans are
Speaker 4: in favor of it. You'd think, I mean outside of
Speaker 4: Fox obviously, but you would think with eighty five percent
Speaker 4: of America, including a majority of Hispanics, saying yeah, illegals
Speaker 4: who are criminals, give them the hell out of here,
Speaker 4: you'd think given those numbers, there'd be some coverage that
Speaker 4: it would at least be neutral on the story. But
Speaker 4: it's always presented as a clear negative and an awful
Speaker 4: thing that this is happening.
Speaker 2: The protests continued into the evening.
Speaker 4: According to the La Times, after a citywide tactical alert
Speaker 4: was issued around seven LA police officers.
Speaker 2: This had been going on for five hours. At this point, LA.
Speaker 4: Police officers were deployed downtown and riot gear, equipped with helmets, batons,
Speaker 4: and less than lethal weapons, forming lines to stop the
Speaker 4: protesters and push them back near Union stations. So I
Speaker 4: guess they drew a line you can't go any further
Speaker 4: than this, though they didn't make them go away.
Speaker 2: No human is illegal on stolen Lion. That's another I
Speaker 2: signed stolen land sing.
Speaker 4: Another one read fight ignorance, not immigrants, whatever that means.
Speaker 4: Videos shared appeared to show demonstrator spraying Giffiti on freeway
Speaker 4: walls and vandalizing at least one car. It was stopped
Speaker 4: in the middle of the crowd. Nobody is illegal, that
Speaker 4: old stupid phrase. Then change the laws if you don't think,
Speaker 4: if you think we're actually an open borders need bay,
Speaker 4: can come here from wherever anytime they want, stay as
Speaker 4: long as you want.
Speaker 1: Drake it into a very very interesting conversation with a
Speaker 1: person who's of academia, and they were saying a lot
Speaker 1: of this stuff is actually on the Wayne A little
Speaker 1: bit like a number of even well meaning progressive people
Speaker 1: are saying, you know that declaration of stolen Land, and
Speaker 1: we want to state that this land was once owned
Speaker 1: by the chipowah blah blah blah that we've talked to
Speaker 1: them and they tell us that doesn't do them any
Speaker 1: good and it's a waste of time. So is some
Speaker 1: of that crazy stuff is starting to wane a little bit.
Speaker 1: As I said, the whole no human is illegal stolen
Speaker 1: land stuff. Good lord, you have the intelect of a
Speaker 1: third grader.
Speaker 2: What's the name of that? When you do that, it's
Speaker 2: got a name. Yeah, declaration of something or other.
Speaker 4: This is also from the La Times. Draped in Mexican
Speaker 4: and Salvadoran flags, demonstrators gathered near City Hall shortly before noon,
Speaker 4: blocking traffic at blah blah blah amid honking horns and
Speaker 4: solidarity messages from passing motorists. Protesters blast a mix of
Speaker 4: traditional and contemporary Mexican music from loudspeakers.
Speaker 2: I like that something for everybody, the oldest and some
Speaker 2: of the newer stuff for the kids, and your favorite
Speaker 2: hits from yesterday.
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, And some danced in the road in traditional
Speaker 4: feathered headdresses.
Speaker 1: Yes.
Speaker 9: Right.
Speaker 1: If I had emigrated to Germany legally or illegally as
Speaker 1: part of a group of American expats that really liked
Speaker 1: being in Germany, she's reading. In Germany, by law, you
Speaker 1: can have up to six weeks of sick leave, and
Speaker 1: so everybody takes five weeks. Evidently that's kind of the
Speaker 1: Mendoza line. But they take more than double what a
Speaker 1: lot of other countries in Europe take for sick leave
Speaker 1: every day because they are every year because the rules
Speaker 1: are set up, and so everybody takes damn near the max.
Speaker 2: So that's a week off every other month.
Speaker 1: So it's like, you know, the speed limit says seventy
Speaker 1: and you know you can't go more than eighty two.
Speaker 1: Evidently the speed limit is six weeks, and you know
Speaker 1: if you take all of that, that looks really bad.
Speaker 1: So I'll take five weeks.
Speaker 2: If you vacation every year, if.
Speaker 4: You have much vacation, then along with some holidays, wouldn't
Speaker 4: you have a week off practically every month?
Speaker 1: Yeah essentially. Yeah, well that's fifty two weeks. Well wait
Speaker 1: a minute, no, that's not quite right. It's five weeks
Speaker 1: a sick leave. That's one every other month.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what I was saying, every other month. But
Speaker 4: you add that to your vacation. Oh right, and your vacation.
Speaker 4: I see your point yeah, yeah, sorry to have a
Speaker 4: week off every month, right, yeah, yeah, anyway.
Speaker 1: But so there I am in Germany with the rest
Speaker 1: of the American expats, and Germany's going to reform their
Speaker 1: laws and not let us lay around and suck off
Speaker 1: the delicious German stein of government milk.
Speaker 2: And h.
Speaker 1: And I and my my buddies decide to against those
Speaker 1: changes because we really want to stay in Germany.
Speaker 2: And if one of my buddies said, and.
Speaker 1: We'll all we'll all carry American flags and chant up
Speaker 1: with America, Up with America, I'd say, who.
Speaker 2: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa whoa.
Speaker 1: Hey, we're all in this together, and I can't wait till,
Speaker 1: you know, march and chant and stuff.
Speaker 2: Maybe we'll honk horns. That'd be fun, wouldn't it. But
Speaker 2: we'll play traditional and modern American music.
Speaker 1: If the point is that we really really want to
Speaker 1: stay in Germany, wouldn't we like wave German flags to
Speaker 1: emphasize that we like it here or something. No, we're
Speaker 1: gonna defiantly wave the flag of our home country and
Speaker 1: demand we be allowed to stay in this country.
Speaker 2: You'd be as still don't follow you.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you'd be a moron if you didn't think this
Speaker 4: is really going to piss off German citizens. This is
Speaker 4: gonna make him so mad that we're here illegally and
Speaker 4: angry about it the way we're being treated.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: A noted immigration reformer online that I on Twitter said,
Speaker 1: thanks for doing our jobs for us.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 4: The net result of this is, I'm you know, keep
Speaker 4: it up, keep doing that, block the freeways, rave what
Speaker 4: wave Mexican flags, and see how public opinion goes on
Speaker 4: this topic.
Speaker 2: Pat Trump heard about this.
Speaker 4: The two thirds of Americans who want to deport all
Speaker 4: illegals regardless, which is crazy.
Speaker 2: That number will go up you keep this going. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: it is something, but you know, you reap what you saw.
Speaker 4: What's missing from your metaphorical allegory thing there in Germany
Speaker 4: is you don't have a giant population of Americans that
Speaker 4: have been there for years, woven.
Speaker 1: Into society to out an enormous mess to accumulate, like
Speaker 1: it's an episode of Hoarders. Cleaning the house is going
Speaker 1: to be really difficult and not.
Speaker 2: Everybody's going to be happy about it.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Some of the stuff though, it just no human being
Speaker 4: is illegal. I mean some of the really childish things
Speaker 4: are just please.
Speaker 2: Can we just get that out of the way. Do
Speaker 2: you want to argue about you.
Speaker 1: Know, the needs of the economy and the wels, all right,
Speaker 1: but god, no human beings illegal.
Speaker 4: Like I was getting me with that again, find me
Speaker 4: any media coverage that doesn't present this as a negative,
Speaker 4: even though it's one of the most popular things in
Speaker 4: America that's being done right now. But NPR was focusing
Speaker 4: on farm help and similar to sixty Minutes a couple
Speaker 4: of months ago, interviewing farmers in California, said I can't
Speaker 4: get Americans to work here. There are no Americans that
Speaker 4: want to come work out in the sun or the
Speaker 4: rain or whatever and show up at five thirty in
Speaker 4: the morning and pick something in my field. And I
Speaker 4: just think that's so crazy. I mean, Okay, we.
Speaker 2: Used to be able to We used to do that work.
Speaker 4: I did that work, and now we won't the generation later. Okay,
Speaker 4: are we cool that? Apparently we're cool with it?
Speaker 1: Well, and furthermore, we don't know come up with some
Speaker 1: I mean, because again you have to accept an absurd premise.
Speaker 1: But okay, I accept that Americans won't do this anymore
Speaker 1: because we're too good for it and we're too beautiful
Speaker 1: and precious. Therefore, we're going to institute a policy of
Speaker 1: and laws that say blah blah blah. Okay, all right,
Speaker 1: that's crazy, but I can live with it. But no,
Speaker 1: the answer is, therefore we can have no enforcement of
Speaker 1: immigration laws whatsoever. Again, if you're more than eight years old,
Speaker 1: you've got to realize, Oh, that's untenable.
Speaker 2: We can't have that. Yeah, we'll finish. We'll finish Strong mixt.
Speaker 1: Art, Strong and Yettie.
Speaker 10: A seismic shift in the NBA, superstar Lebron James has
Speaker 10: a new teammate, the Dallas Mavericks, treating their franchise superstar
Speaker 10: Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers per former NBA
Speaker 10: champion Anthony Davis. The five time All Star, was the
Speaker 10: face of the Mavericks, leading them to the NBA Finals
Speaker 10: last season. For Dallas, it's a shocking move. They now
Speaker 10: move forward with thirty one year old Davis and Kyrie Irving.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a big trade, man, that's a big one.
Speaker 4: It'll be fun to watch the Lakers this year. See
Speaker 4: how that works.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 4: New York Post Megan McCain blasts repugnant Kanye West, hostage
Speaker 4: wife Bianca Sen Sorry after Grammy's twenty twenty five stunt,
Speaker 4: it's not really a stunt.
Speaker 2: She's always naked.
Speaker 4: If you haven't been following Kanye and his wife everywhere
Speaker 4: they go, She's naked walking through the airport, coming out
Speaker 4: of a bagel shop. So that's just their thing. But
Speaker 4: I don't the hostage thing. That's what Katie Now were
Speaker 4: talking about earlier. She does have a look on her
Speaker 4: face like she's.
Speaker 2: Scared or something.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've kind of reflexively not paid much attention to
Speaker 1: it because it seems like just a naked, pardon me,
Speaker 1: effort to like jin up publicity or make some point
Speaker 1: or something. I don't want to give him the time
Speaker 1: of day. But if there is something really weird like
Speaker 1: that going on, I've missed it.
Speaker 4: He might just be sticking it to Kim Kardashian see
Speaker 4: My Hot Wife, who Need You Again?
Speaker 1: A hot wife and she as an uber shapely would
Speaker 1: be Instagram something famous for being famous. Person is happy
Speaker 1: to go along with it, or maybe they're actually in love.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 4: Well, he is nuts, but uh, i'd be quite a lifestyle.
Speaker 4: You'd have to be pretty unhappy to give up the
Speaker 4: flying in a private plane around the world, never working ever,
Speaker 4: Limo everywhere lifestyle.
Speaker 2: Sounds somewhat appealing.
Speaker 4: Yes, I don't know if I want to walk around naked.
Speaker 9: Of course, I don't look like hers your home.
Speaker 1: For final Fox, Joe Getty, let's get a final thought
Speaker 1: from everybody on the crew to wrap things up for
Speaker 1: the day, beginning with our technical director Michelangelo and Michael
Speaker 1: take it away.
Speaker 2: Keep thinking about that Luca Donics trade.
Speaker 1: They said he was out of shape, And I'm really
Speaker 1: glad we can't be traded or fired for being out
Speaker 1: of shape, because I'd be in really big trouble.
Speaker 4: Showed up at the beginning of the year, you know,
Speaker 4: a little overweight and not in shape.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that'd be tough. That'd be tough for me. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Here here, how about our Steve Newswoman Katie Green Katie
Speaker 1: final thought?
Speaker 5: Jack earlier talking about the blue light affecting sleep. Just
Speaker 5: to let you know, I heard you say blue light glasses.
Speaker 5: They make blue light screen covers.
Speaker 2: Now, oh yeah, that's what I need. Then, Yeah, I'll
Speaker 2: get that. I have it. I don't know if it's
Speaker 2: doing anything for me that they exist. Jack final thought for.
Speaker 4: Us, I don't know much about tariffs and trade economics
Speaker 4: and all that sort of stuff, but they're an awful
Speaker 4: lot of experts left right and center who think this
Speaker 4: is a terrible idea.
Speaker 2: I hope it works out better than that.
Speaker 1: Well, it's beIN to look like the story is going
Speaker 1: to be over by like six am tomorrow, which means
Speaker 1: he was right, I guess, or successful anyway. My final thought,
