WEBVTT - Old Cane Shakin' Jack! 0:00:01.840 --> 0:00:06.160 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 0:00:06.200 --> 0:00:07.640 Washington Broadcast Center. 0:00:07.800 --> 0:00:12.000 Jack Armstrong is Joe Getty Armstrong and Getty and now 0:00:12.440 --> 0:00:26.160 he Armstrong and Getty. You're reading about this new Samsung 0:00:26.320 --> 0:00:31.640 phone that some of your tech reviewers are calling the 0:00:31.800 --> 0:00:36.559 final iPhone killer. I don't know if that's true or not. 0:00:36.640 --> 0:00:39.120 iPhone dominates the market, and I'm an iPhone guy and 0:00:39.159 --> 0:00:41.040 I can't imagine, but man, it's got some really cool 0:00:41.040 --> 0:00:42.600 stuff on it. Maybe I'll talk about that later. I 0:00:42.600 --> 0:00:45.760 don't know, dominates the market in the US. That's one 0:00:45.800 --> 0:00:49.520 of the very few places Samsung is the global giant 0:00:49.520 --> 0:00:53.239 by far. So I live in the United States? Do 0:00:53.360 --> 0:00:53.960 you I do? 0:00:54.800 --> 0:00:54.880 It? 0:00:55.040 --> 0:00:55.440 Checks out? 0:00:55.480 --> 0:00:56.480 He does so. 0:00:56.680 --> 0:00:59.960 A couple of thoughts on the Iran deal. Israel slid 0:01:00.320 --> 0:01:03.400 the US deal. First of all, David Friedman was the 0:01:03.440 --> 0:01:07.880 ambassador to Israel during Trump won got booted out by Biden, 0:01:07.920 --> 0:01:11.920 which is the tradition there. Of course, when Republicans put 0:01:11.959 --> 0:01:14.399 their people in it's always reported as some sort of 0:01:14.560 --> 0:01:18.280 unnatural horror. The mainstream media and the Democrats do it, 0:01:18.319 --> 0:01:22.880 and nobody says anything anyway. Friedman said, well, he just 0:01:22.880 --> 0:01:27.520 says Clinton the US Embassy will move to Jerusalem. Bush, 0:01:27.680 --> 0:01:30.880 the US Embassy will move to Jerusalem. Obama, the US 0:01:30.959 --> 0:01:34.039 Embassy will move to Jerusalem. Trump, I have moved the 0:01:34.120 --> 0:01:35.640 US Embassy to Jerusalem. 0:01:36.360 --> 0:01:36.720 Bush. 0:01:37.040 --> 0:01:39.839 Israel cannot make peace with any more Arab nations without 0:01:39.880 --> 0:01:43.000 a Palestinian state. Obama, Israel cannot make peace with any 0:01:43.000 --> 0:01:45.880 more Arab nations without a Palestinian state. Trump, I have 0:01:45.959 --> 0:01:48.800 broken peace deals between Israel and four Arab nations without 0:01:48.840 --> 0:01:53.639 a Palestinian state. And finally, Clinton, Iran cannot have nuclear weapons. Bush, 0:01:53.840 --> 0:01:58.040 Iran cannot have nuclear weapons. Obama, Iran cannot have nuclear weapons. Biden, 0:01:58.120 --> 0:02:02.080 Iran cannot have nuclear weapons. Trump, I've destroyed around's nuclear weapons. 0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:07.080 Seeing a pattern here For all of my problems with Trump, 0:02:07.280 --> 0:02:11.440 his lack of regard for the way things have been 0:02:11.560 --> 0:02:15.919 done or the conventional thinking is both his greatest weakness 0:02:15.919 --> 0:02:17.160 but clearly. 0:02:16.760 --> 0:02:19.960 His greatest strength, no doubt so. 0:02:20.160 --> 0:02:23.640 Putting aside the current wrangling over whether the ceasefire has 0:02:23.720 --> 0:02:26.919 started or whether Trump's momentarily mad at bb net and 0:02:26.960 --> 0:02:30.720 Yahoo for continuing to hurl ordinance at the Mullus, the 0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:35.960 question is where do we go from here? What is next? 0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:39.080 Brett Behar had a couple of terrific guests on special 0:02:39.160 --> 0:02:44.880 Report last night, including Norm Rule, who is a longtime 0:02:44.960 --> 0:02:47.120 diplomat with expertise in the Middle East. We'll start with 0:02:47.160 --> 0:02:48.440 sixty one go from there, Michael. 0:02:48.639 --> 0:02:51.560 There's a healthy dose of skepticism because the Iranians don't 0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:54.959 have a great track record of meeting whatever they talk about, 0:02:55.280 --> 0:02:56.679 either publicly or privately. 0:02:56.840 --> 0:02:58.600 Is that fair, that's more than fair. 0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:03.800 And in fact, in recent hours, Iran's parliament has withdrawn 0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:07.600 or approval to work with the IEA. They've talked about 0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:12.160 pulling out from the on Proliferation Treaty. Iran remains aggressive 0:03:12.200 --> 0:03:16.120 within within the region Iran government. Iran's government is aiming 0:03:16.160 --> 0:03:18.760 to survive at a time when it's air defenses or 0:03:18.800 --> 0:03:22.000 in essence so weak that Israel or the United States 0:03:22.000 --> 0:03:25.360 can own any building in the country, let alone the sky. 0:03:25.639 --> 0:03:28.680 So in essence, it's looking to survive and to stabilize itself. 0:03:28.919 --> 0:03:30.799 But we'll see how the next few days play out. 0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:35.160 And then Brett transitions a bit into the question of 0:03:35.200 --> 0:03:38.720 regime change and where the Iranian people are, and he's 0:03:38.760 --> 0:03:40.840 talking in the next club. The other voice you're going 0:03:40.880 --> 0:03:44.240 to hear is Kareem Sajipor, who is a think tech 0:03:44.320 --> 0:03:46.360 guy and a writer and an expert on the region. 0:03:46.840 --> 0:03:50.360 There's a lot of mystery about opposition on the ground. 0:03:50.520 --> 0:03:52.840 What that looks like? You know a lot about it. 0:03:52.880 --> 0:03:53.760 Where does it stand? 0:03:54.440 --> 0:03:57.920 Well, it's a very polarized society and that you have 0:03:58.000 --> 0:04:01.440 a small minority that's ruling. I described it's a regime 0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:04.880 which aspires to be like North Korean, a society which 0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:08.280 aspires to be like South Korea, modern society. They want 0:04:08.320 --> 0:04:12.000 to live in an open world, prosperous country. They want 0:04:12.040 --> 0:04:16.680 to put the national interest before revolutionary ideology. The challenge 0:04:16.720 --> 0:04:20.679 in Iran, like many dictatorships, is that probably around fifteen 0:04:20.720 --> 0:04:24.200 to twenty percent is what the regimes loyalists are composed of. 0:04:24.680 --> 0:04:28.680 They're highly armed, they're organized, They're willing to kill on 0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:32.560 mass to stay in power and society. At the moment, 0:04:32.720 --> 0:04:36.640 opposition is unarmed, unorganized, and they're not willing to die 0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:38.320 on mass to take power. 0:04:40.480 --> 0:04:43.360 How about that the folks with the guns are in control. 0:04:43.560 --> 0:04:46.279 That's a shock. But yeah, how I love that line. 0:04:46.400 --> 0:04:48.400 You got a leadership that wants to live like North 0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:50.799 Korea and a people that wants to live like South Korea. 0:04:50.880 --> 0:04:53.479 That's pretty good to that previous clip where he talked 0:04:53.480 --> 0:04:56.919 about Israel or US or anybody really has the ability 0:04:56.960 --> 0:04:59.719 to get into any building in Iran and bomb whichever 0:04:59.760 --> 0:05:02.640 floor they want. Has there ever been a major country 0:05:02.720 --> 0:05:05.400 as defenseless as Iran is right now? I don't know. 0:05:06.440 --> 0:05:12.560 No, No, it's it's wild to see what'll skip to 0:05:12.680 --> 0:05:15.320 sixty four. I think Brad asked the question here. It 0:05:15.400 --> 0:05:16.200 sets itself up. 0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:19.200 When you were doing what you did for so many years, 0:05:19.279 --> 0:05:21.320 did you ever see this day coming? 0:05:22.640 --> 0:05:25.680 No, not in terms of the conditions at the time. 0:05:25.800 --> 0:05:28.440 It would have taken a very different set of conditions, 0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:33.000 which were achieved because of the Israeli persistent hammering of 0:05:33.000 --> 0:05:36.720 Iran's proxies and of Iran itself. 0:05:36.440 --> 0:05:39.200 Which was only possible because of October seventh. That's the 0:05:39.240 --> 0:05:43.320 weird unspooling of history that always happens. One of the 0:05:43.360 --> 0:05:48.719 worst days, the worst day in Israel's history, one of 0:05:48.720 --> 0:05:52.360 the worst days in Jewish history, may end up being 0:05:52.720 --> 0:05:57.360 great for Israel and Jewish people and for humanity. 0:05:57.600 --> 0:06:00.640 I would argue, because I believe fundamentalist Islam is a 0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:04.240 serious excuse me, a serious threat to the health and 0:06:04.240 --> 0:06:09.720 safety of humanity. It's an insidious ideology and it has 0:06:09.760 --> 0:06:12.520 been set back terribly. As we were talking about earlier, 0:06:13.760 --> 0:06:16.839 it was Netanyahu versus Solomoni, and Solomoni said, I have 0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:19.640 built these seven armies in Israel, will never be able 0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:21.880 to fight through them. And net Yao who said, hold 0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:25.920 my whatever they drink in Israel beer. And it took 0:06:25.960 --> 0:06:27.120 a hell of a long time, a hell of a 0:06:27.160 --> 0:06:29.520 lot of money, and some very good young lives, but 0:06:29.600 --> 0:06:34.880 they have absolutely abandoned the idea of we will just 0:06:35.000 --> 0:06:37.720 quake in fear and trust that our adversaries are not 0:06:37.760 --> 0:06:39.200 going to hurt us. And they've said, no, we're going 0:06:39.240 --> 0:06:41.920 to defeat them instead, and they've made enormous progress. 0:06:42.200 --> 0:06:44.800 Isn't that a weird thing about life, whether it's your 0:06:44.800 --> 0:06:51.480 own individual life or bigger history globally, just you don't 0:06:51.520 --> 0:06:53.120 know what's a good thing and what's a bad thing 0:06:53.200 --> 0:06:58.039 until till things play out. Sometimes something seems like it 0:06:58.120 --> 0:07:01.040 is really good, it turns out you'd have been better 0:07:01.080 --> 0:07:03.599 off without it, and the other way around. It's just 0:07:03.640 --> 0:07:04.240 you never know. 0:07:05.120 --> 0:07:09.080 Yes, absolutely true. Let's get back to Kareem Sadupor. I 0:07:09.160 --> 0:07:13.480 found this super interesting too. Sixty five kareem Uh. 0:07:13.560 --> 0:07:16.320 The administration, including the Vice president, very clear that they're 0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:20.040 not gung ho on regime change, despite the president's true 0:07:20.080 --> 0:07:21.960 social where he said, hey, if they do it, it's 0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:26.360 miga make a round great again. Is there going to 0:07:26.360 --> 0:07:28.360 be a push. 0:07:28.080 --> 0:07:32.320 From the administration or from the running people within? You know, 0:07:32.760 --> 0:07:35.200 at some point there is going to be a reckoning 0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:38.760 in Iran. Iran in many ways, it's like the late 0:07:38.800 --> 0:07:42.440 latter stages of the Soviet Union. It's it's a zombie 0:07:42.680 --> 0:07:46.320 regime whose ideology is dead, but it still has a 0:07:46.360 --> 0:07:47.880 lot of repressive capacity. 0:07:48.320 --> 0:07:50.560 And in other words, it's not impotent. 0:07:50.680 --> 0:07:54.280 It can still repress its own people, especially. 0:07:53.760 --> 0:07:56.360 And they don't have a plan be you know, as 0:07:56.360 --> 0:07:59.240 norm was just saying, now, very few friends in the world, 0:07:59.360 --> 0:08:02.040 so for for their mentality. In some ways, there's killer 0:08:02.080 --> 0:08:04.600 be killed. The thing that you want to watch in 0:08:04.640 --> 0:08:08.360 the Iriian context and the context of many dictatorships is 0:08:08.360 --> 0:08:12.160 is elite Fisher's is the regime starting to splinter at 0:08:12.200 --> 0:08:15.440 the top. A lot of their senior commanders have been assassinated, 0:08:15.520 --> 0:08:19.440 but so far we haven't seen major defections or splinters. 0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:21.760 And that's his best guess that he may be right, 0:08:21.800 --> 0:08:24.120 and he is an expert. But man, watching regimes fall 0:08:24.160 --> 0:08:28.480 over the years, who it's so hard to predict. Things 0:08:28.680 --> 0:08:31.760 can look so steady from the outside and they just 0:08:31.920 --> 0:08:35.080 collapse overnight, and then you got ones that look super, 0:08:35.120 --> 0:08:37.679 super shaky. Well, this isn't gonna last long, and they 0:08:37.720 --> 0:08:39.160 hang on for another ten years. 0:08:40.200 --> 0:08:43.800 Yeah, I'm a student of Iranian politics, not an expert. 0:08:44.240 --> 0:08:48.800 There are unique aspects to Iran that a lot of 0:08:48.840 --> 0:08:54.840 places don't share, and that's specifically fervent religious fundamentalism combined 0:08:54.920 --> 0:09:00.120 with self preservation and economic concerns. And boy, that's teasing 0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:03.760 that out. Well, like you point out, sometimes it's completely 0:09:03.840 --> 0:09:07.160 shocking how quickly it all falls apart. This has different 0:09:07.200 --> 0:09:09.080 layers to work through, but I'm sure it'll be every 0:09:09.080 --> 0:09:14.280 bit as crazy when it does unfold. And then finally, JD. 0:09:14.440 --> 0:09:18.719 Vance was on with Brett. Was it the previous night 0:09:18.800 --> 0:09:23.040 or all this stuff is happening so quickly? I'm seeing 0:09:23.080 --> 0:09:28.080 if we u JD said, it's not the question of 0:09:28.120 --> 0:09:31.880 where the enriched uranium is is not. The fundamental question 0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:35.280 is what's that? Michael? It was last night? It was 0:09:35.360 --> 0:09:38.240 last night, okay, And he said, yeah, that's not that 0:09:38.320 --> 0:09:41.160 big a question not a fundamental question. Final note from 0:09:41.240 --> 0:09:43.760 kream Sagiport in sixty sixty disagrees. 0:09:43.640 --> 0:09:46.800 It's imperative that we get a hold of this highly 0:09:46.880 --> 0:09:50.240 enricheranium or understand where it is. Because despite the fact 0:09:50.280 --> 0:09:53.520 the Vice president said the nuclear program has been decimated, 0:09:53.960 --> 0:09:55.839 that's not to say that they can't. You know, they 0:09:55.880 --> 0:09:58.439 have the technical know how, they can assemble a cascade 0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:02.240 of centrifuges and a somewhere they have the uranium. So 0:10:02.280 --> 0:10:05.760 if there's still hell bent on acquiring a weapon, you know, 0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:08.120 that's something that we obviously have to impede. 0:10:09.840 --> 0:10:13.000 Oki dok if we can so somewhere there is nine 0:10:13.080 --> 0:10:16.400 hundred pounds of fairly enriched uranium, and then they might 0:10:16.440 --> 0:10:20.199 have centrifuges we have no idea about. And I wouldn't 0:10:20.240 --> 0:10:23.800 be shocked to see breaking news any of these days 0:10:24.520 --> 0:10:27.480 where Iran announces they've got the bomb, They've got a bomb, 0:10:28.280 --> 0:10:29.040 they pulled it off. 0:10:30.440 --> 0:10:35.640 Yeah, I suppose they desperately want that, and it would 0:10:35.920 --> 0:10:40.559 absolutely make sense. If I was a strategist working for Iran, 0:10:41.400 --> 0:10:46.160 I'd say, agreed to anything, submit to anything, offer no resistance, 0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:50.320 abs be like a puppy rollover to show your belly. 0:10:50.960 --> 0:10:54.079 Then meanwhile, over there, these centers were working on those 0:10:54.080 --> 0:10:56.320 centerfugees as fast as we can. We've got to buy 0:10:56.440 --> 0:10:59.280 time until we can set off a nuke as a demonstration. 0:10:59.640 --> 0:11:02.520 That's the only way we survive. Let's get to work now. 0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:06.920 So that's that's one of the reasons I'm a little 0:11:06.960 --> 0:11:11.840 mystified by Trump pissed off at Israel for continuing to 0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:16.480 prosecute their efforts to prevent that. Who knows, maybe things 0:11:16.480 --> 0:11:22.240 will change again. The next twenty four hours been you know, volatile. 0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:27.439 You know what's coming up, the anniversary of Live Aid 0:11:27.559 --> 0:11:30.960 if you're old enough to remember that, it happened in 0:11:31.080 --> 0:11:34.320 nineteen eighty five, July thirteenth. I just saw CNN's got 0:11:34.320 --> 0:11:37.600 a big retrospective special with interviews with a lot of 0:11:37.600 --> 0:11:39.800 new musicians and people that were there and everything like that. 0:11:41.240 --> 0:11:43.439 Maybe we'll talk about what we'll be back by then 0:11:43.520 --> 0:11:46.080 we'll talk about that on that anniversary. That's quite the delia. 0:11:46.360 --> 0:11:51.360 Did it accomplish anything in terms of actually stopping starvation? 0:11:52.080 --> 0:11:53.840 It was one of the great amount of money. 0:11:53.720 --> 0:11:55.640 It's one of the greatest concerts of all time, But 0:11:56.240 --> 0:12:00.680 how much it accomplished in terms of them. I don't know. 0:12:01.440 --> 0:12:05.920 It was fraught with difficulties and complexities. 0:12:05.960 --> 0:12:09.119 I know that as those things always are, right, Yeah, 0:12:09.160 --> 0:12:11.760 it's easy for them to get out of hand, and 0:12:11.920 --> 0:12:14.160 just the money to go in the wrong places, and 0:12:14.200 --> 0:12:16.440 the bigger something gets, the harder it is to control. 0:12:16.679 --> 0:12:23.160 Yeah, anyway, much to talk about. Hope you can stay. 0:12:24.320 --> 0:12:27.160 The CEO of the messaging app Telegram said in a 0:12:27.200 --> 0:12:30.400 recent interview that is multi billion dollar fortune will be 0:12:30.480 --> 0:12:33.600 left to these six children he has with three different partners, 0:12:33.600 --> 0:12:37.439 and the more than one hundred children conceived through sperm donation. 0:12:37.800 --> 0:12:39.920 And I just have to say it's refreshing to see 0:12:39.920 --> 0:12:42.040 a billionaire who knows how many kids he has. 0:12:45.640 --> 0:12:48.440 All Right, I didn't like that, Joe, you have a 0:12:48.480 --> 0:12:49.200 joke that's funny. 0:12:50.360 --> 0:12:52.160 I think we've done all their jokes today already. O. 0:12:52.320 --> 0:12:53.600 Well, we should have stopped earlier. 0:12:54.040 --> 0:12:56.439 So you went with unfunny ones. Okay, there will be 0:12:56.480 --> 0:12:57.280 a meeting later. 0:12:57.600 --> 0:13:02.120 So here's a protest unhappy that she got run over on. 0:13:02.120 --> 0:13:05.600 Saturday after leaving the No King's protest, I was struck 0:13:05.920 --> 0:13:10.640 and injured by a motor vehicle. The cops here in Catskill, 0:13:10.679 --> 0:13:14.640 New York took several days to get an accident report together. 0:13:15.240 --> 0:13:18.600 They never I've been asking for information for days because 0:13:19.120 --> 0:13:22.560 I've been very traumatized by this event. And now, in 0:13:22.640 --> 0:13:26.120 order to re traumatize me, the cops here are telling 0:13:26.160 --> 0:13:29.440 me that it's my fault that I put my human 0:13:29.440 --> 0:13:33.040 body in the street to be hit by a motor vehicle, 0:13:33.920 --> 0:13:36.400 and now they're giving me a citation for. 0:13:36.800 --> 0:13:38.160 Being in the road. 0:13:38.920 --> 0:13:41.880 Honestly, I think that's a bunch of crap, and I'm. 0:13:41.840 --> 0:13:44.400 Very very upset. Who bleeped out crap? 0:13:46.520 --> 0:13:49.240 Don't don't bleep out the crap and grab crap, bunch 0:13:49.240 --> 0:13:50.760 of grabbers, bleep crap. 0:13:51.000 --> 0:13:54.840 In the modern world, the president is dropping f bombs 0:13:55.160 --> 0:13:56.560 and we bleeped crap. 0:13:57.400 --> 0:14:00.360 But if I might return to the thread of the audio, Oh. 0:14:03.240 --> 0:14:05.520 I don't know which protesters she was that got run over. 0:14:05.600 --> 0:14:08.680 I think is a different one than the one I 0:14:08.720 --> 0:14:11.680 put out on Twitter. That blonde girl who is like 0:14:11.800 --> 0:14:14.000 up on the hood of the car. She thought she 0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:18.040 could stop cars because I'm an angry college girl. Nothing 0:14:18.080 --> 0:14:21.320 can stop them an angry, angry college girl except maybe 0:14:21.440 --> 0:14:24.320 two thousand pounds of Detroit steel or Japanese steel or 0:14:24.360 --> 0:14:28.160 whatever was that ran over her leg. Then it keeps 0:14:28.200 --> 0:14:30.880 going forward and she just kind of slides down the 0:14:30.920 --> 0:14:32.600 hood and then he runs over her leg and then 0:14:32.640 --> 0:14:36.520 she's screaming and yelling how bare he Well, don't stand 0:14:36.560 --> 0:14:42.440 in front of cars, you mow ron. Well, we've you know, 0:14:42.480 --> 0:14:44.720 we raised them. They didn't get this way in there. 0:14:45.120 --> 0:14:48.560 We've taught them that their feelings matter more than anything 0:14:48.560 --> 0:14:50.720 else in the world. And you can do anything you want. 0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:52.640 You can smash out windows, you can take over of 0:14:52.640 --> 0:14:54.960 a building, you can stop trafficking and do whatever you want. 0:14:55.000 --> 0:14:57.640 You can glue yourself to a basketball court because what 0:14:57.760 --> 0:14:59.960 you care about matters more than anything in the world. 0:15:00.520 --> 0:15:02.720 Go ahead and mess with the bull as much as 0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:05.880 you want. You will never get the horns. Yes, we've 0:15:05.960 --> 0:15:06.480 taught them. 0:15:07.480 --> 0:15:10.880 So it's an election day in New York City for mayor. 0:15:11.000 --> 0:15:14.480 It's actually the primary, but whoever wins the Democratic Primary 0:15:14.520 --> 0:15:17.720 is going to be mayor. They got rank choice, probably 0:15:17.800 --> 0:15:19.520 not going to get over fifty percent, so it's going 0:15:19.600 --> 0:15:22.359 to go to multiple rounds. But according to all projections, 0:15:22.400 --> 0:15:25.200 at least on the polls that came out yesterday, this 0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:30.680 communist Mam Danny is going to win over Andrew Cuomo. 0:15:32.840 --> 0:15:38.840 More reporting on that many business leaders, including the leading grocer, 0:15:39.520 --> 0:15:44.080 billionaire John Castematis, threatened to close all of his grocery 0:15:44.080 --> 0:15:47.160 stores if this dude wins, because the dude is claiming 0:15:47.200 --> 0:15:53.040 he's going to run government grocery stores with lower prices 0:15:53.080 --> 0:15:58.400 and all that sort of stuff to compete, running on 0:16:00.160 --> 0:16:04.320 freebe heavy platform, promising free bus rides for everybody, everybody 0:16:04.320 --> 0:16:07.160 gets to ride the bus for free city run grocery 0:16:07.200 --> 0:16:09.320 stores and higher taxes on the rich. And this is 0:16:09.360 --> 0:16:11.960 what's going to win in New York City. Oh it's 0:16:12.000 --> 0:16:16.760 strict rent control too, yeah yeah yeah, and taxpayer funded 0:16:17.640 --> 0:16:20.800 transitioning for children. And he's going to set up a 0:16:20.800 --> 0:16:24.760 commission to go after hospitals that don't do surgeries on 0:16:26.080 --> 0:16:27.880 kids who want to change their sex. 0:16:28.840 --> 0:16:32.200 Right, yeah great. I can picture people like coming back 0:16:32.240 --> 0:16:34.560 from the space station saying, wait a minute, there's a 0:16:34.560 --> 0:16:38.680 communist running. Did you say against Andrew Cuomo? Yeah, I know, 0:16:38.840 --> 0:16:43.440 the disgraced groper, old people killing mobster, and I love 0:16:43.520 --> 0:16:44.080 New York. 0:16:44.240 --> 0:16:45.200 I actually was he back? 0:16:45.360 --> 0:16:46.280 And I love you? 0:16:46.560 --> 0:16:49.120 I actually haven't seen an interview with this man, Danny Dude, 0:16:49.160 --> 0:16:51.960 who might be the new mayor. He's apparently really good 0:16:51.960 --> 0:16:54.360 really good. He never had a job. He's one of 0:16:54.360 --> 0:16:58.520 those people. He's a really good speaker, very charismatic, very. 0:16:58.400 --> 0:17:01.960 Likable, happy, educated, wealthy Trustafarian. 0:17:02.120 --> 0:17:05.679 Yeah yeah, with all kinds of crazy, unworkable ideas. So 0:17:05.720 --> 0:17:09.840 that'll be fun to watch fail. Armstrong and Getty. 0:17:11.000 --> 0:17:14.639 Define the president, we will attack Iran whatever stage of 0:17:14.680 --> 0:17:18.679 development they might be in their nuclear weapons program in 0:17:18.680 --> 0:17:21.720 the next ten years, during which they might foolishly consider 0:17:21.840 --> 0:17:25.399 launching an attack on Israel. We would be able to 0:17:25.400 --> 0:17:29.480 totally obliterate them. That's a terrible thing to say, but 0:17:29.560 --> 0:17:32.840 those people who run around need to understand that, because 0:17:33.119 --> 0:17:36.640 that perhaps will deter them from doing something that would 0:17:36.680 --> 0:17:38.840 be reckless, foolish and tragic. 0:17:39.440 --> 0:17:42.960 Hillary Clinton in two thousand and nine, she would have 0:17:43.000 --> 0:17:47.920 been Barack Obama's Secretary of State at that time, and. 0:17:48.040 --> 0:17:53.560 Is that right, Yeah, you just gotten inaugurated. 0:17:54.720 --> 0:17:58.920 So that was a strong we're not going to let 0:17:59.119 --> 0:18:02.080 Iran get the bomb. We will obliterate them comment from 0:18:02.119 --> 0:18:02.840 Hillary Clinton. 0:18:04.119 --> 0:18:06.760 And instead they went with the JCP away, which some 0:18:06.840 --> 0:18:10.399 would say was an impotent agreement that enriched that have 0:18:10.640 --> 0:18:14.440 made Iran realize that other people say he went crazy 0:18:14.480 --> 0:18:16.760 and riching under that stupid, fake agreement. 0:18:16.880 --> 0:18:19.840 She also didn't say we will go to Congress and 0:18:19.880 --> 0:18:23.240 get the war a war declared so we can obliterate them. 0:18:24.160 --> 0:18:27.159 Yeah, handful of headlines speaking of that. John Yu with 0:18:27.200 --> 0:18:29.320 a great piece in the National Review. Trump's strike on 0:18:29.359 --> 0:18:34.080 Iran was constitutional. And my favorite part of this is that, 0:18:34.119 --> 0:18:36.800 well he goes into the Federalist papers in Hamilton and 0:18:37.560 --> 0:18:41.520 but then he mentions that it started with George Washington, 0:18:42.200 --> 0:18:46.400 who prosecuted the so called Indian Wars without a declaration. 0:18:46.720 --> 0:18:49.520 Thomas Jefferson fought the Barbary pirates on his own authority. 0:18:49.640 --> 0:18:52.040 Abraham Lincoln launched an army and a navy and launched 0:18:52.040 --> 0:18:54.439 them against the South without calling Congress. In the session, 0:18:54.760 --> 0:18:58.440 FDR ordered escorts for British convoys and attacks on German submarines. 0:18:59.280 --> 0:19:03.280 Congress's declar glared war five times. Presidents have committed military 0:19:03.320 --> 0:19:07.080 forces to combat abroad more than one hundred and thirty times, 0:19:07.720 --> 0:19:11.040 including the Vietnam War, which has the W word right 0:19:11.080 --> 0:19:16.800 in the name. Anyway, uh, Gerard Baker Wall Street Journal, 0:19:16.800 --> 0:19:20.760 Trump's Iran strike looks judicious and pragmatic. By attacking key 0:19:20.840 --> 0:19:22.960 nuclear sites, the US enters a fight in our national 0:19:22.960 --> 0:19:24.960 interest in which An ally has done most of the 0:19:24.960 --> 0:19:30.960 heavy lifting. This from the uh, oh, you know, I 0:19:31.040 --> 0:19:33.120 did that at length. We'll skip over it here. 0:19:33.440 --> 0:19:38.920 We had half a million troops in Vietnam in nineteen 0:19:38.960 --> 0:19:40.280 sixty five, I believe. 0:19:40.760 --> 0:19:41.280 Wasn't a war. 0:19:41.320 --> 0:19:43.359 It was a police action. How could you have a 0:19:43.400 --> 0:19:48.200 half a million troops somewhere fighting and dying in Congress 0:19:48.240 --> 0:19:50.879 doesn't declare war, I mean, if you're not going to 0:19:50.960 --> 0:19:55.000 in that case, this whole bomb and Fordo, that seems 0:19:55.280 --> 0:19:56.879 to pale in comparison. 0:19:57.359 --> 0:20:02.600 Right, and again, Vietnam mostly perpetrated, prosecuted by Democratic presidents Nixon. 0:20:03.520 --> 0:20:07.000 At the end, I found this really interesting. Why Russia 0:20:07.119 --> 0:20:10.600 is giving Iran the cold shoulder after the Israel attack 0:20:11.119 --> 0:20:14.840 Teywaran was promised military aid before the air strikes, but 0:20:14.920 --> 0:20:19.880 it got little more than rhetoric from Moscow. Putent obviously 0:20:19.880 --> 0:20:24.600 prioritizing Russia's interests such as avoiding escalation, maintaining ties with Israel, 0:20:24.600 --> 0:20:29.080 and Trump over fully backing Iran, and they mentioned that 0:20:29.160 --> 0:20:31.760 Russia has a history of not really supporting allies and 0:20:31.840 --> 0:20:35.719 crisis like Armenia and Syria, and suggesting that Iran may 0:20:35.760 --> 0:20:37.600 face a similar disappointment. 0:20:39.480 --> 0:20:41.679 They go with the sucks for you doctrine. 0:20:42.280 --> 0:20:46.720 Yeah, exactly. We made you big promises. Yeah, but we're 0:20:47.080 --> 0:20:50.880 that would be really inconvenient to us to actually carry 0:20:51.040 --> 0:20:55.800 through them. So Jerry Seinfeld says, you can take the reservation, 0:20:56.240 --> 0:20:59.159 but you don't have Yeah, it's the same thing if 0:20:59.280 --> 0:21:03.159 your buddy is Russia or China for that matter. Another 0:21:03.200 --> 0:21:05.560 headline is from the editorial board of the Wall Street Journal, 0:21:05.600 --> 0:21:09.320 Trump in the Twelve Day War, Iran's feeble retaliation shows 0:21:09.320 --> 0:21:16.720 how damage the kame Ni regime is absolutely true. Then 0:21:16.720 --> 0:21:20.720 they mentioned that the Justice Department another story Trump's Iran 0:21:20.800 --> 0:21:25.439 attacks for his concerns of retaliation in the US. I 0:21:25.720 --> 0:21:30.400 don't think the regime wants anybody to retaliate against the US, 0:21:32.080 --> 0:21:35.160 as I said earlier, and I stand by my analysis. 0:21:37.040 --> 0:21:41.760 If I'm a high level advisor to the Mullah's, I'm saying, 0:21:43.080 --> 0:21:46.040 show your belly like a dog, like a beaten dog, 0:21:46.359 --> 0:21:50.960 don't resist, agree to everything in anything. Meanwhile, behind the scenes, 0:21:51.040 --> 0:21:54.080 under deep cover, enrich uranium as fast as you can, 0:21:54.320 --> 0:21:59.560 but don't show a whiff of resistance. Cajole Trump into 0:21:59.600 --> 0:22:01.320 thinking the battle is over. 0:22:02.640 --> 0:22:06.240 We haven't read from Trump's long tweet that he put 0:22:06.280 --> 0:22:10.879 out yesterday. Congratulations to everyone, all caps, exclamation point. It 0:22:10.880 --> 0:22:13.600 has been fully agreed by in between Israel and Iran 0:22:13.600 --> 0:22:16.639 that there will be a complete and total ceasefire in 0:22:16.720 --> 0:22:19.119 approximately six hours from now, when Israel and Iran have 0:22:19.119 --> 0:22:23.240 wound down and completed in progress final missions for twelve hours, 0:22:23.240 --> 0:22:27.040 at which point the war will be considered ended officially, 0:22:27.080 --> 0:22:30.240 Iran will start the cease fire, and upon the twelve hour, 0:22:30.520 --> 0:22:33.400 twelfth hour, Israel will start the ceasefire, and it goes 0:22:33.440 --> 0:22:36.120 on like that, on the assumption that everything works as 0:22:36.119 --> 0:22:38.440 it should, which it will. I would like to congratulate 0:22:38.480 --> 0:22:41.800 both countries Isel and Iran on having the stamina, courage, 0:22:41.840 --> 0:22:44.760 and intelligence to end what should be called the twelve 0:22:44.880 --> 0:22:47.760 day War. In all caps. This is a war that 0:22:48.480 --> 0:22:50.560 could have gone on for years and destroyed the entire 0:22:50.560 --> 0:22:53.040 Middle East, but it didn't and never will. God bless Israel, 0:22:53.240 --> 0:22:56.000 God bless Iran, God blessed the Middle East, God blessed 0:22:56.000 --> 0:22:58.240 the United States, and God blessed the world. 0:22:58.800 --> 0:23:03.440 In all caps. First of all, excellent dramatic reading. Ah, 0:23:03.480 --> 0:23:10.359 God bless Iran. Congratulations, everything's great, and Iran's thinking what 0:23:12.400 --> 0:23:15.120 you brought us to your knees, to our knees, rather 0:23:15.240 --> 0:23:17.560 not your knees. You brought us to our knees, and 0:23:17.600 --> 0:23:21.520 now we're getting God bless Iran. But again, to me, 0:23:21.680 --> 0:23:24.400 that's I don't I don't know. Maybe I just don't 0:23:24.480 --> 0:23:29.600
