Nothing on that to me, which 28 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 5: means he's nowhere near getting over his addiction. 29 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,119 Speaker 1: The fact that he's told me something about the pain 30 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,199 Speaker 1: he caused his family, which is kind of an automatic, 31 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 1: isn't it. 32 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 5: There He said we would like privacy at this moment 33 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 5: or something like that, but the I'm going to work 34 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 5: to get my block, my my my and know, thank 35 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 5: god I didn't kill anybody, which. 36 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: Should you know. Anyway, I said what I said. 37 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 5: So we got the Supreme Court oral arguments going on 38 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 5: on the birthright citizens case going on right now, and 39 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 5: we can talk more about that later. Just saw this 40 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 5: that Gorsicch, according to Jonathan Turly, has continued to express 41 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 5: a degree of skepticism towards the historical arguments of the administration. 42 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 5: The historical arguments of the administration. 43 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, keeping in mind that a guy like Gorsich will 44 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 1: ask the tough questions because he's trying to find flaws 45 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: in his own argument. Often. Well, we'll see. Yeah, if 46 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,519 Speaker 1: you missed our fabulous preview of this case, it took 47 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 1: place in our one right of the show. Yeah, Armstrong 48 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 1: and gettyon demand subscribe to the podcast. So a quick 49 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,239 Speaker 1: follow up then, as we affectionately call the little bingo 50 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: bango bongo stories that are definitely worth hearing about, at 51 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: least in brief. But Jack falling up on your discussion 52 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 1: of being asked to leave the room so the medical 53 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: professional can get with your child and take control of 54 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: the situation. The federal laws on this are practically non 55 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: exis existent. It's a state by state thing. But even 56 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: more than that, it's largely clinical guidelines recommended by groups 57 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 1: like the AMA, AAP and ACOG, which I could probably 58 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 1: figure out what it stands for, but I don't know. 59 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 1: Even more reason to ignore them exactly, especially when we've 60 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 1: documented for you good people over and over again how 61 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: a lot of the big medical organizations have been completely 62 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 1: captured by the woke. 63 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 5: Last I am, I gotta admit, I'm full of embarrassment, 64 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 5: full of embarrassment that I agreed to leave the room. 65 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 5: I'll never do it again. I'll never do it again. 66 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 5: It's taught medical training. 67 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: Again. The medical schools are famously captured by the woke. 68 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: They were among the most susceptible to the woke takeover 69 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: in recent years. Really more than that on university campuses. 70 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:53,559 Speaker 1: But it's taught medical training is best practice, especially for adolescents, 71 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: reproductive health visits, and domestic violence screening. But it's left 72 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: to provide our discretion in most plays. No, I cannot 73 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: speak to cal Unicornia. Now, let me throw this in 74 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: just so I don't come off as a complete monster. 75 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 1: If I had a teenage daughter who said I'd like 76 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: to talk to the doctor about something and it's I 77 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: don't really want you to, I'd say, Okay, sure, and fine. 78 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 1: You know, if it's just you know, the sort of 79 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: thing you don't want to talk about in front of 80 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: your dad. Maybe I don't know. I suppose I could happen. 81 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 5: I don't have a daughter, but you know, the reverse, 82 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 5: just them automatically as you said, I'll take the wheel. 83 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 5: Now I'm in charge of the whole parenting thing. You 84 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,359 Speaker 5: leave the room, f you, And I don't mean the 85 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,679 Speaker 5: person who asked yesterday. I mean the institution all right 86 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:38,159 Speaker 5: here here. 87 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, there is a hell of a lot in our 88 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: lives that is crept in via the universities and medical 89 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:48,479 Speaker 1: schools and the capture of these organizations more than I 90 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: probably even realize. 91 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 5: And I'm pretty sensitive. If you'd like to look into 92 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 5: this stuff. It's really interesting that that's quite a philosophical break. 93 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 5: People who believe the family is like the sole important 94 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 5: you of our society, and people who don't. 95 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: It's pretty interesting, agreed. So as a bridge to some 96 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 1: of the other stories I wanted to bring to you, 97 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: I was clauding the question of what's the basis of 98 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: these practices, you know, state law, federal laws, you know, 99 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: AMA or whatever. And it occurred to me that, as 100 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: always with Ai in search, I might be getting a 101 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: distorted result, which reminded me that the New York Post 102 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:32,479 Speaker 1: had a really good piece about how a handful of 103 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 1: woke Wikipedia editors have completely twisted Wikipedia into a progressive organization. 104 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 1: You're saying, yeah, Joe, we know that, but what hadn't 105 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 1: dawned on me? And here I'll give you the example, 106 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: then I'll give you the significance. Wikipedia editors are editing 107 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 1: the crap out of any coverage of Zoron Mumdani, for instance, 108 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: his relationships with radical groups. During one of his rap 109 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 1: songs back before he was in politics, he's a rapper. 110 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 1: He was shouting out to five men convicted of financing Hamas, 111 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,160 Speaker 1: men who were held liable in federal court for the 112 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 1: murder of a boy from New York City. Uh, but 113 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: they're cleansing all of that. Here's the problem. Wikipedia is 114 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 1: one of the primary learning sources for AI systems. 115 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 5: I notice that whenever I don't know if every AI 116 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 5: does this, but a lot of them do. The chatbots 117 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 5: you ask you a question and you can see it 118 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 5: thinking and the sources it's using. And Wikipedia is almost 119 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 5: always the first source that it's using to give you 120 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 5: the information. 121 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 1: Right right, and the Free Beacon, the Washington Free Beacon 122 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 1: has done some great writing on this too. Let's see 123 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 1: a look at some key pages on the site reveals 124 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: the links to which Wikipedia editors are willing to go 125 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 1: to shape Momdnnie's public image and critically that of his wife, 126 00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:01,359 Speaker 1: Rama Duagi and her pro hamas social media posts. And 127 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: then a report by Washington Free Beacon found that Duagi 128 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 1: created a post on blogging site Tumbler with a photo 129 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 1: of a terrorist with a caption echoing that person's words 130 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: and giving big thumbs up. And then let's see here's 131 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: a post if I told you that The New York 132 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 1: Times hired a recently graduated college student with only a 133 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 1: couple prior articles written on the subject of food and 134 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: cooking to be their lead on the ground reporter on 135 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: the mass rape hoax in Britain, would you believe it? 136 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 1: And that's this guy who who is repeating reporting on it. 137 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 1: And then Wikipedia used that bias reporting and cleansed any 138 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 1: unfortunate details from there from the already biased journalism so 139 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 1: called journalism. And again it's being used to train aisystems. 140 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: So that's kind of troubling. Well, it's not kind of troubling, 141 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 1: it's completely troubling. But moving along, this is just funny. 142 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: Trauma is the New Black is the title of this 143 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 1: somewhat humorous post about how it starts with this Abdul 144 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 1: al Sayed, far left terrorist adjacent democrat running for the 145 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: US Senate in Michigan. He's running in the primary and 146 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 1: he's doing very, very well. The funny story about how 147 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: he's been boasting for years about doing time quote unquote 148 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 1: after getting arrested for blocking traffic and had a protest 149 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen. I put my body on the line 150 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: and took an arrest. And I didn't take the politician's 151 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: arrest where they like turn around and drop you off. No, 152 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: I took the whole arrest. I did my time. Except 153 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 1: he didn't. According to police records, he was taken by 154 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,319 Speaker 1: a van to a detention center in Detroit, where he 155 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: has issued a citation for disorderly conduct and released immediately. 156 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 1: He paid a two hundred dollars fine and the charges 157 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: were dropped. But the tale's been a central component of 158 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: his campaign pitch. He's told the story over and over 159 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: and over again, Joe Biden like, And then what really 160 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:58,319 Speaker 1: amused me is they get into Democrats are bringing back 161 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:02,439 Speaker 1: the hardship Olympics in and beyond. Candidates across the country 162 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 1: are asking their own lawyers how to get arrested on 163 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 1: camera without suffering real consequences, And they go through how 164 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 1: you have to lean into your childhood trauma. If you've 165 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: had a really good life. Like Gavin Newsom, it's dyslexia 166 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: and a rich, absent father who, by the way, funded 167 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 1: his entire career.

This should be a story everybody in 179 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 1: America has heard, and it's incredibly important, and nobody will 180 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 1: hear it except you, good people. The story of Argentina 181 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: under President Javier Malay. Their GDP expanded four point four 182 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: percent last year, further confirmation of malay success in turning 183 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 1: around the economy, highest growth in years apart from the 184 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: pandemic bounce back, and part of the unbelievable shift in 185 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 1: South America's second largest economy since they abandoned socialism and 186 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: went with free markets. Annual inflation was one hundred and 187 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 1: sixty percent when he took power in twenty twenty three. 188 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: It's now at at the lowest level in eight years. 189 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: It remains higher than they want. What is the current figure? 190 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: Oh stop it, I don't want to subscribe. It's down 191 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 1: to something like twelve percent if I'm reading this. Yeah, 192 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 1: according to this art, it is unbelievable success. Poverty has 193 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 1: fallen two, despite Malay's sharp cut to subsidies that sparked 194 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 1: mass protests, still a self described anarchy anarcho capitalists approval 195 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: rating is struggling, driven in part by accusations of corruption, 196 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,679 Speaker 1: of course, as well concerns over stagnating the incomes and 197 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:24,319 Speaker 1: because everybody who's benefiting from the social state is desperate 198 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 1: to get rid of the guy. But again, inflation has 199 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:32,319 Speaker 1: been cut by something like ninety percent. And then finally 200 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: this fake cops, fake judges, the Hollywood style scam poised 201 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: to go global.

It's it started appearing in US immigrant communities. 221 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: Not widespread in Western countries excepting the immigrant communities, in 222 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:07,559 Speaker 1: part because there aren't scammers that are proficient enough in 223 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:11,559 Speaker 1: Western procedures and that sort of thing. But again in 224 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: immigrant communities, where everything's a little more informal and weird 225 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,839 Speaker 1: in their court systems, they fall for It's crazy. 226 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 5: Blasted after the moon later today, we got a Supreme 227 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 5: Court case going on right now, and Donald Trump's actually 228 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 5: in the room at the Supreme Court to listen to 229 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 5: the arguments and other stuff to talk about. 230 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 1: Stay here, Armstrong, he yetti. 231 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,319 Speaker 6: So far, the US does seem to be winning.

But China 233 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:39,959 Speaker 6: has landed a robot on the far side of the 234 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,319 Speaker 6: Moon that never faces Earth, and that's something that the 235 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 6: US has never done. However, we are the only country 236 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 6: to send humans to the Moon, and NASA hopes to 237 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 6: do it again in twenty twenty eight, two years before 238 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 6: China plans to The US also wants the permanent Moon 239 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 6: base and humans on Mars starting in the early twenty 240 00:13:58,040 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 6: thirties ahead of China. 241 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 5: I was listening to NPR's take on the Moon mission today, 242 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 5: first time humans are headed toward the Moon in half 243 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 5: a century, and it was all identity politics with no mention. 244 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 5: And I haven't heard hardly anybody mentioned the space race 245 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 5: that's going on between US and China. 246 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: That's clearly what's driving this. 247 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 5: NASA didn't decide to do this so that they could 248 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 5: have the first ever female black whatever, That's not what's 249 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 5: driving or it shouldn't be what's driving this stuff.

Oh, it was terrible. 335 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 1: I think we have I thought we had that tape 336 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 1: at audio. I don't see it. 337 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:04,120 Speaker 5: They're arguing whether over at the whole birthright citizenship thing 338 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:08,159 Speaker 5: applies the way it's being applied. Anybody that comes to 339 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,200 Speaker 5: this country, you have a baby here, they're a US 340 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 5: citizen with all the rights and services, taxpayer funded services 341 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 5: that come with that for the rest of their lives, up. 342 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 1: To and including some birth tourist Chinese oligarchs surrogate who, 343 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 1: as I put it in delicately earlier in the show, 344 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 1: gets off a plane, squats on the tarmac at Lax 345 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: pops a kid and then gets back on the plane 346 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 1: goes back to China. 347 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 5: The kid's a US citizen. I would care a lot laughable. 348 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 5: I would care a lot less if we weren't such 349 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 5: a welfare state. But you get into this country anyway 350 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:46,880 Speaker 5: you can, and you have a kid here. That kid, 351 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 5: now I have to feed in house and medicate and 352 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 5: take care of their medical bills for the rest of 353 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:52,880 Speaker 5: their life as a taxpayer. 354 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 1: Correct kind of deal with that? Well, we take care 355 00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 1: of ill eagles too in the Blue States. But what 356 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 1: are you gonna do? You can to vote in the 357 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 1: next election anyway. Are we ready for a little audio 358 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 1: just to give you a sampling of what it sounded like. 359 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 1: This is my man, Neil Gorsich, with the advocate for 360 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 1: the administration's position. 361 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 7: Who's domicile matters? I mean, it's not the child, obviously, 362 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 7: it's the parents. You'd have us focus on. And you know, 363 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:22,919 Speaker 7: what if is it the husband? 364 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 2: Is it the wife? What if they're unmarried? Who's domicile? 365 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 8: Well, in the executive order, it draws a distinction between 366 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:30,440 Speaker 8: the mother and the father. 367 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 9: It's really the mother is domicile. I think that would matter, 368 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 9: But he's not. 369 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 2: Sixty eight matters you're telling us, So what's the answer? 370 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 9: The eighteen sixty eight sources talk about parents. 371 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,159 Speaker 8: I'm not aware of them drawing a distinction between mother 372 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 8: or father, but they say that domicile the child follows 373 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 8: the domicile of the parents. 374 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 2: And how are we going to determine domicile? 375 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 7: I mean, would we use contemporary sources on what qualifies 376 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 7: as domicile in a state or do we look in 377 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 7: eighteen sixty eight and do we have to do this 378 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:55,960 Speaker 7: for every single person? 379 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 8: And again I don't see a strong distinction between those 380 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:01,199 Speaker 8: because of course domicile is a high level concept has 381 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 8: been pretty consistent over centuries, which is lawful presence with 382 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 8: the intentory made permanently that domicile. When you've come to 383 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 8: a new nation, you say I'm here for to stay. 384 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 8: You become part of their political community, and you become akin. 385 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,879 Speaker 9: To a citizen. And that's reflected very strongly in the 386 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 9: case I signed before. 387 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 1: John Sower is a brilliant attorney with a terrible voice. 388 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:23,360 Speaker 1: He really needs some sort of AI system. The concept 389 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 1: of domicile is a high level theory. 390 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 5: Between his voice and my not being particularly bright. I 391 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 5: didn't really get much out of that. 392 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, it's not a question of bright. I was 393 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,399 Speaker 1: regretting not setting it up more thoroughly as I was 394 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 1: listening to that. The question, man, I don't even want 395 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 1: to get into the weeds. The question is is the 396 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 1: person passing through or do they live here? And that's 397 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 1: a distinction that the lawyers are saying matters because the 398 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 1: law was never I'm sorry, the fourteenth Amendment was never 399 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: intended to reflect somebody who came in to do business 400 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 1: with a cotton the company and then immediately sailed back 401 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:02,880 Speaker 1: to England. I'm sorry. 402 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,440 Speaker 5: The guy with the horrible voice. Was he arguing for 403 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:08,120 Speaker 5: the president's side or for the other side. So he's 404 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,440 Speaker 5: arguing for the president's side that people shouldn't be able 405 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 5: to come here, and well that it was all about 406 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 5: slavery and we don't have slaves anymore, so. 407 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: This is all stupid, right. Yeah. Essentially, let's go with 408 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 1: clip one O three, where he's explaining that there are 409 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 1: all sorts of weird wrinkles in how people come to 410 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:26,439 Speaker 1: have kids in this country. 411 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:30,920 Speaker 8: There are five hundred, five hundred birth tourism companies in 412 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 8: the People's Republic of China, who's what business is to 413 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 8: bring people here to give birth and return to that nation. 414 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 7: Having said all that, you do agree that that has 415 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 7: no impact on the legal analysis before us. 416 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 8: I think it's I'd quote with Justice Clia said in 417 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 8: his Homdan Descent, where they have like their interpretation has 418 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:54,879 Speaker 8: these implications that could not possibly have been approved by 419 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,479 Speaker 8: the nineteenth century framers of this amendment. 420 00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 9: I think that shows that they made a mess. Their 421 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 9: interpretation has made. 422 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 2: A mess in the provision. Well, it certainly wasn't a 423 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 2: problem in the nineteenth century. 424 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 8: No, But of course we're in a new world now, 425 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 8: is Justice Leader pointed out to where eight billion people 426 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 8: are one plane ride away from having a child who's 427 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:13,919 Speaker 8: a US citizen. 428 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 2: Well, to the world, it is the same constitution. 429 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 3: It is. 430 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 8: And as Justice Clia said, I think in the case 431 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 8: that Justice Leader was referring to, you've got a const 432 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 8: social provision that addresses certain evils, and it should be 433 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 8: extended to reasonly comparable evils. He said that about Stash 434 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 8: story interpretation. I think the same principle applies here, and 435 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:32,920 Speaker 8: I think we quote that in our brief. 436 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 5: So Garsa's saying it's a New World, but we have 437 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 5: the same constitution. He's making the argument that drastic changes in, 438 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 5: for instance, the ability to travel shouldn't matter. 439 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 1: No, it's funny. It struck me, and I'm learning more 440 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 1: and more about law school because my daughter is in 441 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 1: it right now. That a lot of classes, you do 442 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,680 Speaker 1: your reading and there might be a lecture or whatever. 443 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:03,199 Speaker 1: Then the professor says, mister Armstrong, and you stand up 444 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 1: and you're like, oh boy, they say, and they ask 445 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 1: you a probe question like that. You know, it's still 446 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 1: the same constitution. Why would we change the interpretation just 447 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 1: because of the presence of air flights And you've got 448 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 1: to explain yourself and your understanding law and that sort 449 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:18,360 Speaker 1: of thing. And so it strikes me that the oral 450 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:20,639 Speaker 1: arguments are like a law school class. A lot of 451 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 1: the time, they're just quizzing the lawyer on help me 452 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: think through this, think, you know, think through this. I 453 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 1: didn't get Robert's point. Honestly. What the administration is saying 454 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 1: is that the world has changed so wildly. 455 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 6: That the. 456 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 1: Court decision subsequent to the Fourteenth Amendment in eighteen ninety 457 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 1: eight and nineteen ten and whatever else, they're irrelevant. Now 458 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,640 Speaker 1: we've got to go originalist and look at the framing 459 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 1: of the fourteenth Amendment. What did they mean? Not what 460 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:57,920 Speaker 1: some court in eighteen ninety eight thought they probably kind 461 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 1: of meant in the modern world. No, we've got to 462 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 1: go back to the source and look at the source 463 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,639 Speaker 1: is the only lens through which we look at the 464 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 1: modern interpretation. Why do you think Trump was in the 465 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 1: courtroom today. I don't know. Part of me thinks he was. 466 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 1: He wanted to intimidate a little bit, or remind some 467 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 1: of those justices. I appointed you, all right, I'm your daddy. 468 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:26,680 Speaker 1: What's your daddy? I'm your daddy. And part of me 469 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: just thinks he thinks it's really really important and he 470 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 1: wanted to hear it. 471 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 5: That second part could be true, although that would have 472 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 5: been true for lots of presidents in cases they wanted 473 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 5: to turn out a certain way and they didn't show 474 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 5: up over there. 475 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, the tradition was you would never do that because 476 00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 1: it could be seen as one branch interfering with the 477 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 1: other branch, or intimidation or whatever. I can't imagin sure 478 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: I it entirely. 479 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 5: He doesn't have any power to intimidate anybody, though he 480 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:52,479 Speaker 5: can't remove them. 481 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 1: He can't. He can't damage them in any way. Well, 482 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 1: if he whips up like the Maga bass against them, 483 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:03,120 Speaker 1: could physically be dangerous or you know, undermine the Court, 484 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 1: which I know Roberts is really concerned about. 485 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:07,400 Speaker 5: I don't know how he could whip up the magabase 486 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 5: against them any more than the you know, the people 487 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:15,159 Speaker 5: who hate Trump have whipped it up against justices on 488 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 5: the conservative side already. 489 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. You know, the funny thing about Trump is he's 490 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: so precedent upsetting in a lot of ways that when 491 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 1: he upsets precedent, it's just it's not that big a deal. 492 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: I mean, no sitting president has ever attended Supreme Court 493 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:36,360 Speaker 1: oral arguments on a case that he was Party two. Yeah, 494 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 1: well he does all sorts of crap. Yeah, and it 495 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 1: just happened. 496 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 5: And how shaken does the world seem to be that 497 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:44,160 Speaker 5: he They looking around, I think we're okay. 498 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:46,320 Speaker 1: I'm not saying I like it. 499 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 5: So it's April first, you know, you do on April first, 500 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 5: you go to a loved one who you have earned 501 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 5: their trust over many, many years of being a certain 502 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:59,919 Speaker 5: kind of person.

It's like 621 00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 5: social security. I think we make an assumption that it 622 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 5: goes into a specific account. 623 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 1: That it can only be used for that purpose. But 624 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:06,959 Speaker 1: that's not the way money. It's not the way you're 625 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 1: SoC security. 626 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 5: I mean, soci security is the greatest example of all, 627 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, we all assume it's going into some sort 628 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 5: of an account somewhere that is just for social security. No, 629 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 5: it just goes into the general fund of money, and 630 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:23,400 Speaker 5: it's getting used for you know, the war, and for 631 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 5: social programs and for you know, National Hot Dog Day 632 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 5: if there's some reason the federal government needs to spend 633 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:30,440 Speaker 5: money or whatever. 634 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 1: And then when you retire that the federal government says, 635 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:35,240 Speaker 1: where the effort are you going to get the money 636 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 1: for a jack's retirement? I guess will borrow it. That's 637 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 1: the way it actually works. All right, Moving along, I 638 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 1: thought this was interesting. I'm super excited about Cuba. Nobody's 639 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:48,960 Speaker 1: talking about Cuba, the crumbling of the evil communist Castro 640 00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 1: regime and the prospect perhaps for reform there. I'm on 641 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 1: fire for Cuba right now. 642 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 5: I'm reading listening to Cuba Libre fantastic freaking book about 643 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 5: the rise of Fidel and Chay and take it over 644 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 5: the country and the before and after. 645 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 1: It's so good.

What's the expression, It doesn't matter. 651 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,840 Speaker 1: There's so much going on with Iran right now. Cuba's 652 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:30,920 Speaker 1: regime is about to collapse, and it looks like the 653 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 1: Trump administration was saying, we can't deal with that right now. 654 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:36,840 Speaker 5: Oh you think that's why they did it, to like 655 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 5: keep the regime healthy for a little while.

The move does 657 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:46,560 Speaker 5: not market policy change, and the Trump administration is deciding 658 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:49,520 Speaker 5: on a case by case basis. Quote, Cuba's non functional 659 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 5: economy cannot be fixed unless they undergo dramatic political and 660 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:53,239 Speaker 5: leadership change. 661 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 1: Blah blah blah, But not now, not right now.
