Speaker 1: Countdown with Keith Olderman is a production of iHeartRadio. Trump
Speaker 1: filmed a commercial while standing on top of the graves
Speaker 1: of dead American war heroes. I am surprised he didn't
Speaker 1: try to sell us sneakers or trading cards or bitcoin
Speaker 1: or the rest of his shit. And his staffers assaulted
Speaker 1: a woman employee at Arlington National Cemetery, and he blamed
Speaker 1: the families of the dead because his campaign broke the
Speaker 1: law at his fascist gang of thugs is running wild
Speaker 1: with this, as if Kamala Harris has anything to do
Speaker 1: with it. And eight days later, there still is at a
Speaker 1: Senate investigation, or a Defense Department investigation, or a real
Speaker 1: journalistic investigation, and one of them better be started, god
Speaker 1: damned immediately. And the media continued to cover up for
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Cover up. Not the cover up of his
Speaker 1: campaign emails hacked by a foreign government and sent to
Speaker 1: the New York Times, Washington Post and Politico. Not their
Speaker 1: cover up of that story, because this time that matters.
Speaker 1: Not the cover up of the reported ten million dollar
Speaker 1: bribing of Trump just before the twenty sixteen election by
Speaker 1: President Elcesi of Egypt. Not that cover up by the
Speaker 1: major newspapers and by the Department of Justice, which should
Speaker 1: just publicly release all it has on the Egyptian bribe,
Speaker 1: and if it won't, Biden should order it to not
Speaker 1: That cover up. The cover up of Trump grinning like
Speaker 1: the psychotic that he is, thumbs up, violating all codes
Speaker 1: of decency and respect for veterans, which can only be
Speaker 1: re established in this country if we prosecute scumbags like
Speaker 1: Trump who helped to tear them down every day. The
Speaker 1: cover up of him illegally filming a commercial for his
Speaker 1: campaign to end democracy and filming it in a place
Speaker 1: marked no political activity. The cover up of whoever hit
Speaker 1: an Arlington National Cemetery employee and how they hit her,
Speaker 1: and the cover up of why she is now too
Speaker 1: afraid to proceed or to go public. Where is the
Speaker 1: daily pounding on this utterly, transcendently disgusting story, this deeply
Speaker 1: meaningful story, and most importantly for the simpletons running places
Speaker 1: like the New York Times, the Washington Post in Politico,
Speaker 1: this really easy to follow story. I give the New
Speaker 1: York Times some credit for paying some attention to this story,
Speaker 1: but even they have let it slide, even as the
Speaker 1: Trump campaign continues to use the video illegally shot not
Speaker 1: only to promote his campaign, but also to try to
Speaker 1: smear the vice president because she didn't literally dance on
Speaker 1: the graves of soldiers alongside Trump the way Trump did.
Speaker 1: But even this from the Times, this is six days old. Quote.
Speaker 1: The family of a Green Beret who died by suicide
Speaker 1: after serving eight combat tours and is buried at Arlington
Speaker 1: express concern Wednesday that Trump's campaign had filmed his gravesite
Speaker 1: without permission, as Trump stood in an area where campaign
Speaker 1: photography is not allowed. Relatives of Master Sergeant Andrew Marcasano
Speaker 1: issued their statement two days after Trump's visit, which also
Speaker 1: included a confrontation between members of the Trump campaign and
Speaker 1: an Arlington employee. The former president's campaign took video in
Speaker 1: a heavily restricted section of the cemetery known as Section sixty,
Speaker 1: which is largely reserved for the fallen veterans of the
Speaker 1: Iraq and acts Afghanistan wars. A woman who works at
Speaker 1: the cemetery filed an incident report with the military authorities
Speaker 1: over the altercation, but the official, who has not been identified,
Speaker 1: later declined to press charges. Military officials said she feared
Speaker 1: mister Trump's supporters pursuing retaliation unquote. You will recall that
Speaker 1: the worker who asked them to stop was yelled at
Speaker 1: by Trump goons then abused physically in some way. We
Speaker 1: still don't know if it was a tap on the
Speaker 1: shoulder or a broken goddamn jaw. Then, when the story
Speaker 1: of how the Trump people trampled the graves of the
Speaker 1: war dead at Arlington National Cemetery, this Trump spokesclown Stephen
Speaker 1: Chung said the woman who tried to stop them was
Speaker 1: quote suffering from a mental health episode. And this phony
Speaker 1: Trump patriot Chris las Sevida, the swift boat asshole, called
Speaker 1: her a quote despicable individual who does not deserve to
Speaker 1: represent the hollowed grounds of Arlington National Cemetery, and half
Speaker 1: the media, including The Times, covered up the fact that
Speaker 1: this idiot las Savita indeed wrote hollowed as in hollowed
Speaker 1: out conscience instead of the correct word, which is hallowed
Speaker 1: with an A. And by the way, when the Trump
Speaker 1: campaign issued a statement from Senator Tom Cotton, who was
Speaker 1: a candidate for Dumbest Man Alive but he looks serious,
Speaker 1: so Trump likes him, the quote from Cotton misspelled the
Speaker 1: word cemetery, and your goddamn right. It matters because it's
Speaker 1: the Arlington National Cemetery, and since literally the Civil War
Speaker 1: when we seized it from the trader Robert E. Lee,
Speaker 1: it has been our most hallowed ground, this cemetery, and
Speaker 1: these Trump it it's can't even get that part right,
Speaker 1: let alone the laws right, or the respect right, or
Speaker 1: the solemnity right required of anybody who goes there. I mean,
Speaker 1: do you know who the Sullivan brothers are. They are
Speaker 1: in Arlington two. They're going to be there for a while.
Speaker 1: They're in Section MC, basically across the street from Section
Speaker 1: thirty five. They're the equivalent of about three city blocks
Speaker 1: away from where Trump shot his commercial. The former marine
Speaker 1: and former Wall Street Journal reporter Ben Kesling brought this up.
Speaker 1: The Sullivans were five brothers from Iowa who served together
Speaker 1: in the Second World War on the same ship, on
Speaker 1: the light cruiser USS, you know, and it was sunk
Speaker 1: by the Japanese at Guadalcanal on November thirteenth, nineteen forty two,
Speaker 1: and they all died, all five of them, all five brothers.
Speaker 1: Trump could have taken five minutes to go and salute them,
Speaker 1: or five seconds to salute anybody at Arlington, even Robert F.
Speaker 1: Kennedy Senior the hell. As Kesling notes, this isn't the
Speaker 1: first time Trump specifically ignored the Sullivan brothers. Waterloo, Iowa
Speaker 1: named its convention center after them, and Kesling was there
Speaker 1: when Trump campaigned there more than eight years ago. And
Speaker 1: just to be as cynical as possible, you go to
Speaker 1: the Sullivan Center, it's a layup politically. There's a big
Speaker 1: picture of them, their story, their deaths, where they are now,
Speaker 1: unbelievably tragic story. Trump didn't pose with the picture. He
Speaker 1: didn't reference them in the speech at their center. Just
Speaker 1: like a week ago yesterday, he just went to Arlington
Speaker 1: as he'd gone to Waterloo, just to sell you more shit,
Speaker 1: and f the Sullivans and f the soldiers in Afghanistan,
Speaker 1: and especially f this Arlington employee, and after yelling at
Speaker 1: the employee, after touching or slandering her, questioning her mental health,
Speaker 1: questioning her patriotism, threatening her in some way, when it
Speaker 1: was reported that she initially filed her report then declined
Speaker 1: to pursue it at Joint Base Meyer Henderson Hall in
Speaker 1: Virginia for fear of retaliation. This breathing cartoon spokesman Stephen
Speaker 1: Chung went in for another hit, quoting him that is
Speaker 1: ridiculous and sounds like someone who has Trump derangement syndrome. Unquote.
Speaker 1: You know who has Trump derangement syndrome? Trump Trump has
Speaker 1: Trump derangement syndrome. He's the one with the derangement. Oh.
Speaker 1: By the way, there are two fatally flawed strains of
Speaker 1: pseudo logic operating within our newsrooms that are covering up
Speaker 1: for Trump about Arlington and all the other stories. One
Speaker 1: of these strains is, as the Inn saying goes, that
Speaker 1: this is another opportunity for news organizations with vestigial and
Speaker 1: long since expired reputations for being liberal, like The Times
Speaker 1: could be mistaken for liberal anymore. It's an opportunity for
Speaker 1: them to comply in advance in case Trump regains power.
Speaker 1: The other pseudo logic is this claim that Trump people
Speaker 1: continued to belch that they have exculpatory video of this
Speaker 1: incident with that crazy National Cemetery employee and it'll show
Speaker 1: you and don't you dare criticize Trump because you'll look
Speaker 1: really stupid when we release the video and take our revenge.
Speaker 1: And there are eighth graders starting at school newspapers this week,
Speaker 1: this minute. Who know there is no video that the
Speaker 1: only video Trump has he shot illegally and used all
Speaker 1: of it illegally for an illegal campaign. Add but don't
Speaker 1: try explaining that to the New York Times, the Washington
Speaker 1: Post in Politico, because for them to say there is
Speaker 1: no video requires them to say something. And the point
Speaker 1: right now is for them to not say anything. Two
Speaker 1: generations of the fascist Republicans working the refs of the
Speaker 1: media of this nation, plus the ever spiraling gyre of
Speaker 1: the shrinking news business, have in short worked. Democracy may
Speaker 1: die in darkness, but inside the Washington Post, the real
Speaker 1: fear is the Washington Post will die because somebody there
Speaker 1: said something. Now when others say something, When the family
Speaker 1: of the PTSD suicide whose grave was shown by Trump
Speaker 1: without that family's permission, when they say something, then then
Speaker 1: the Times or the Post or the others will go
Speaker 1: just far enough out onto that limb to point at
Speaker 1: what they said and say, oh, please, don't hurt us.
Speaker 1: Right wingers keep buying our shit newspapers. Trump blamed the
Speaker 1: family of the soldier he was supposedly honoring. It wasn't us.
Speaker 1: We just saw it on the TV. Then and only
Speaker 1: then will they report something like this, should your campaign
Speaker 1: have put out those videos and photos? Well, we have
Speaker 1: a lot of.
Speaker 2: People, you know, we have people, TikTok people.
Speaker 1: You know, we're leading the internet. That was the other thing.
Speaker 1: We're so far above her on.
Speaker 3: The end, I'm not hallowed ground so that they have.
Speaker 2: Put out I don't know what the rules and regulations are.
Speaker 2: I don't know who did it. And it could have
Speaker 2: been them. It could have been the parents, it could
Speaker 2: have been somebody. It was your campaign's TikTok theild I
Speaker 2: put out there.
Speaker 1: I really don't know anything about it.
Speaker 2: All I do is I stood there and I said,
Speaker 2: if you'd like to have a picture, we can have
Speaker 2: a picture. If somebody did, if this was a setup
Speaker 2: by the people in the administration that oh Trump is
Speaker 2: coming to Arlington.
Speaker 1: That looks so bad for us. There ought to be
Speaker 1: a story in every newspaper every day demanding that the
Speaker 1: Trump campaign released the video showing it was the woman
Speaker 1: employee who attacked the Trump campaign goons, you know, the
Speaker 1: video that doesn't exist, because otherwise he gets away with it,
Speaker 1: like he's getting away with the Egypt bribe, like he's
Speaker 1: getting away with whatever was in the emails the Iranians hacked,
Speaker 1: because this election foreign hacking matters. Like he's getting away
Speaker 1: with saying Kamala Harris treated Mike Pence terribly because she
Speaker 1: told him to stop interrupting him during the debate, as
Speaker 1: opposed to you know, the whole gallowsy hangy thing that
Speaker 1: Trump did. Like he's getting away with the Willie Brown
Speaker 1: helicopter flight logs from when Brown slimed Kamala Harris. He's
Speaker 1: going to release them from ten years ago. Only it
Speaker 1: wasn't ten years ago, and they didn't talk about Harris,
Speaker 1: and for that matter, it wasn't Willie Brown, and it
Speaker 1: wasn't ten years ago, and it wasn't a helicopter, and
Speaker 1: it wasn't in San Francisco. He's getting away with it,
Speaker 1: and you get away with it when the media covers
Speaker 1: up for you so thoroughly, so automatically, as the Times
Speaker 1: and the Post and the politico operations of this world
Speaker 1: and all but a few others are so thoroughly, so
Speaker 1: automatically defaulting to covering up for Trump. Not wanting to
Speaker 1: touch it, it's too much trouble. It's a third rail.
Speaker 1: Nothing good can come of it. Everybody knows he's crazy.
Speaker 1: We can't report this. They're doing it so thoroughly that
Speaker 1: the Trump campaign and the Trump psychopaths don't even have
Speaker 1: to bother to cover it up themselves anymore. By the way,
Speaker 1: the Arlington National Cemetery employee slimed and manhandled by the
Speaker 1: Trump campaign in ways we still don't know, she doesn't
Speaker 1: have to in effect press charges. The army can take
Speaker 1: it from here. The evidence is the commercial. The Trump
Speaker 1: physical attack on her is almost unbelievable, but in one
Speaker 1: context it's unnecessary to this story. The laws were broken,
Speaker 1: whether they beat her over the head with a tire
Speaker 1: iron or they said sorry, ma'am and bowed on the
Speaker 1: way out and the breeze was too strong for her.
Speaker 1: But you're not going to read about that either, because
Speaker 1: the media is so so broken. It was broken in
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen. It tried with some success to fix itself
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty, but it's now broken in new and
Speaker 1: worse your waves. Joe Scarborough, who has unsuccessfully tried to
Speaker 1: purge from the Internet all those photos of Trump standing
Speaker 1: next to him like he Scarborough was also a tombstone,
Speaker 1: and both of them are grinning like con men giving
Speaker 1: the thumbs up sign. Joe Scarborough his show followed up
Speaker 1: on the CNN Kamala Harrison interview last week with a
Speaker 1: focus group of mixed race voters, and sure enough, one
Speaker 1: of them, a guy named Adul Ali, just happens to
Speaker 1: echo this Trump insult to everybody in the world, almost
Speaker 1: word for word, quoting from the Scarborough focus group. I
Speaker 1: didn't know she was black until a number of years
Speaker 1: ago when she happened to turn black, and now she
Speaker 1: wants to be known as black. I don't know is
Speaker 1: she Indian or is she black? Unquote this Adul Ali
Speaker 1: is a Trump podcaster running for Congress as the Republican
Speaker 1: in the North Carolina twelfth Congressional district as a Trumpist.
Speaker 1: And guess you never mentioned that. Joe Scarborough and his
Speaker 1: people and MSNBC, and they matter of factly told the
Speaker 1: website Mediaite. Sure they knew he was a Republican running
Speaker 1: for Congress, they just didn't mention it. That's where we
Speaker 1: are again. The media is pitted against the Democratic candidate
Speaker 1: because bluntly, liberals do not punish bad media. I don't
Speaker 1: care about that. I think the Democratic candidate can handle it.
Speaker 1: For herself. What I'm worried about is this also coincides
Speaker 1: with the reality that the media is pitted against democracy
Speaker 1: as a result of this stand up for democracy. You guys,
Speaker 1: you're all going to wind up in the camps with us.
Speaker 1: You saw this from Politico. Next question, Harris evades questions
Speaker 1: about her identity. This was in the wake of the
Speaker 1: CNN interview with Kamala Harris, which admittedly didn't provide a
Speaker 1: lot of headlines. And Kamala Harris did, as I've said before,
Speaker 1: showed respray I could never muster in thirty five thousand lifetimes.
Speaker 1: They read her the Trump quote about turning black and
Speaker 1: she just went same old playbook. Next question. It was
Speaker 1: a dignified answer to a piece of shit. Next question,
Speaker 1: Harris evades questions about her identity. Well, the blowback on
Speaker 1: this the ratio of let me see if I've got
Speaker 1: this right. The ratio on the tweet was fifty seven million,
Speaker 1: two three. That's a lot, isn't it. I made those
Speaker 1: numbers up, but what the hell it's Politico. Politico then
Speaker 1: changed in a matter of I guess three hours or
Speaker 1: so to Harris sidesteps the spotlight when it comes to
Speaker 1: her identity, and of course the picture of her from
Speaker 1: the video still says next question, Harris evades questions, and
Speaker 1: then they did a little thread for the record. This
Speaker 1: replaces a deleted tweet to better reflect Harris's response. It's
Speaker 1: a funny way to spell apology. We're idiots, We're Politico,
Speaker 1: We're run by a German right winger. We have retreads
Speaker 1: who got fired from every other news organization in the world.
Speaker 1: You saw this from the New York Times. They got
Speaker 1: something wrong, they tried to fix it. They got it
Speaker 1: wrong again in a different way. If you saw this.
Speaker 1: The Moms for Liberty can get a bit carried away,
Speaker 1: one of their local chapters, once accidentally quoted Atoll Hitler,
Speaker 1: He alone, who owns the youth, gains the future. Well, well,
Speaker 1: well that's fun. Accidentally, the Moms for Liberty can get
Speaker 1: a bit carried away, one of their local chapters, once
Speaker 1: quoted Adolf Hitler. He alone, who owns the youth, gains
Speaker 1: the future. A correction was made on September first, twenty
Speaker 1: twenty four. At the Times wrote an earlier version of
Speaker 1: this article incorrectly said that a local chapter of Moms
Speaker 1: for Liberty had accidentally quoted Adolf Hitler in a newsletter.
Speaker 1: The group, which later issued an apology, was aware that
Speaker 1: the quote was from Hitler when the newsletter was published. Well,
Speaker 1: the Times correction is wrong. They didn't just acknowledge that
Speaker 1: they were aware Hitler, said that they defended quoting Hitler.
Speaker 1: They defended quoting Hitler after people in their own organization
Speaker 1: threatened to shut this chapter of Moms for Liberty, which
Speaker 1: is a brand name. After that, then finally they apologized,
Speaker 1: you saw this from Puck News, from this perpetual hot
Speaker 1: and cold running clown Dylan Buyers representing the closed ranks
Speaker 1: of political media. Fascist propaganda dits are not really fascist propagandists.
Speaker 1: It's just stiff. Fox News is just another flavor of
Speaker 1: news right, and it's like MSNBC. It's a different kind.
Speaker 1: One is sweet, one is sour. You decide which is witch.
Speaker 1: Not even the fascist propagandists whose names came up in
Speaker 1: the dominion lawsuit and are shown in texts trying to
Speaker 1: get their own network to take back their call of
Speaker 1: Arizona for Joe Biden in twenty twenty, they're not really
Speaker 1: fascist propagandists. They're the same as everybody else. This is
Speaker 1: what Dylan Byers wrote first, The perceived bias of television
Speaker 1: news networks is almost always a red herring, bullshit. Of
Speaker 1: the three well known popular television networks, add Fox and CNN.
Speaker 1: Let's make it five. I've worked for NBC, I've worked
Speaker 1: for Fox, I've worked for CNN. I worked locally for
Speaker 1: ABC and CBS. Why it's a complete set. Guess what.
Speaker 1: The perceived bias of television news networks is almost never
Speaker 1: a red herring. Actually, but he goes on all available
Speaker 1: evidence suggests foxes Brett Bhar and Martha McCallum would be
Speaker 1: equally responsible moderators or interviewers of either candidate. Likewise, NBC's
Speaker 1: Less Your hold In, Savannah Guthrie, by the Way, Savannah
Speaker 1: Guthrie and Less Your Whole perfectly nice people, Ciphers, there's
Speaker 1: nobody there. They're television performers. At one point each of
Speaker 1: them was a newsman or newswoman. But they're Cipher's. Martha
Speaker 1: McCallum is a Republican who often advocates for right wing
Speaker 1: causes on her show and takes a right wing slanted
Speaker 1: point of view. And as I said, Brett Behar is
Speaker 1: in this huge lawsuit, demanding that his own network, and
Speaker 1: he's the newsman, added, demanding that they put Arizona back
Speaker 1: in play, because it's making everybody look bad for all
Speaker 1: the mission creep. Dylan Byers right, anybody knows creeps. It
Speaker 1: would be Dylan Byer's for all the mission creep and
Speaker 1: conflicts of interest in TV news. These days, all of
Speaker 1: the major companies, yes, even Fox, employ capable newsmen and
Speaker 1: women whose reputations, like those of the network that employ them,
Speaker 1: depend on their ability to moderate a debate or conduct
Speaker 1: an interview with journalistic integrity. I'm waiting for the punchline
Speaker 1: to this, in which it turns out Dylan Byers does
Speaker 1: not own a TV of any kind. To a quick
Speaker 1: run of the polls New York Times in Swing States,
Speaker 1: the number one issue in Swing states for women voters
Speaker 1: is no longer the economy. It is abortion. ABC ipsos
Speaker 1: Harris by six over the weekend. Favorable's good for her
Speaker 1: and for Walls, not so hot for the Republicans, widening
Speaker 1: her advantage among women. In the new ABC News IPSOS poll,
Speaker 1: she now leads by thirteen points, fifty four to forty one.
Speaker 1: Among the men, Trump leads by five fifty one forty six,
Speaker 1: which is declared not statistically significant. Between the lines to
Speaker 1: use the phrase the female male change occurs among pasty
Speaker 1: white people quoting it, White women have gone from thirteen
Speaker 1: points for Trump pre convention to a virtual dead heat
Speaker 1: Trump plus two now. White men from plus thirteen points
Speaker 1: for Trump before the convention to plus twenty one points now,
Speaker 1: according to the ABC News polling director, So the women
Speaker 1: are all even and the men are even more for
Speaker 1: Trump than they were before and in this isn't really
Speaker 1: a poll, this is the oops. Those were internal numbers.
Speaker 1: I didn't know they'd go public where they went public.
Speaker 1: In the Boston Globe, Tom Mountain, who had served as
Speaker 1: one of several vice chairs of the former president's effort
Speaker 1: in Massachusetts, wrote in an email to Trump volunteers in
Speaker 1: the state that the campaign has determined that New Hampshire
Speaker 1: is no longer a battleground state, advis supporters to instead
Speaker 1: direct their attention to Pennsylvania. The GOP, the Boston Globe says,
Speaker 1: had been bullish about winning New Hampshire before President Biden
Speaker 1: dropped out. In the email, Mountain, former official with the
Speaker 1: Massachusetts GOP, said Trump was quote sure to lose by
Speaker 1: an even higher margin in New Hampshire than he did
Speaker 1: in sixteen and twenty. Citing campaign data slash research. Can
Speaker 1: you guess where I'm going with this? For the joke
Speaker 1: that ends this segment, he claimed, resources the Globe continues
Speaker 1: would be suspended and the campaign would not send Trump
Speaker 1: or high profile surrogates such as his sons. Well, thank
Speaker 1: goodness for small blessings New Hampshire. The email was obtained
Speaker 1: by the Globe and confirmed with multiple recipients. Trump campaign
Speaker 1: official Tom Mountain has now resigned, thus making a molehill
Speaker 1: out of a mountain. Just sitting there on a tee.
Speaker 1: All right, if you're new here, thanks for responding to
Speaker 1: the advertising, appreciate it. I put a new one of
Speaker 1: these out, usually forty minutes to an hour in length.
Speaker 1: Every night, just after midnight, a version goes up on
Speaker 1: YouTube about five am. So this is the Tuesday edition
Speaker 1: or the Monday Bulldog edition that you're listening to now
Speaker 1: starting next Monday, now, next Sunday night about midnight. That'll
Speaker 1: be five nights a week. Though the one Sunday night
Speaker 1: Monday morning, that's going to be real short eight minutes
Speaker 1: unless I get worked up, and of course, as you know,
Speaker 1: I never get worked up. Four is about the maximum
Speaker 1: I can handle. We got eight weeks to go until
Speaker 1: the election. If I can ask you to do something
Speaker 1: like listen, the least I can do is actually add
Speaker 1: the fifth piece. Anyhow, back to this one. Also of
Speaker 1: interest here, it is amazing to watch right wing racists
Speaker 1: and misogynists goes so nuts over somebody like Kamala Harris.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you notice this, but she's a
Speaker 1: woman of color that the misogynists and racists and their
Speaker 1: defenses melt and they all default to assuming she's where
Speaker 1: she is because of quote puppet masters and or quote
Speaker 1: oral sex. Worst persons in the world is next. This
Speaker 1: is countdown. This is countdown. With Keith Olberman still ahead
Speaker 1: of us on this ediative countdown. The college year has
Speaker 1: just begun. The pro football year starts day after tomorrow.
Speaker 1: These things may combine to mean many things for you.
Speaker 1: For me, they combine into only one story. The day
Speaker 1: one of the most infamous mistakes in football history led
Speaker 1: my college professor to have to talk himself out of
Speaker 1: taking it out on everybody in his course by failing
Speaker 1: us all f's for everybody. You get an F, and
Speaker 1: you get an F, and you get an F next,
Speaker 1: and things I promised not to tell first. There are
Speaker 1: still more new idiots to talk about. The daily roundup
Speaker 1: of the miscrants, morons and dunning Kruger effects specimens who
Speaker 1: constitute two day's worst persons in the World's fellow's name
Speaker 1: is Peter J. Hassen. He is an editor. The editor.
Speaker 1: It's hard to say they won't assume responsibility at the
Speaker 1: Free Beacon, which is exactly what it sounds like. It's free.
Speaker 1: Peter Jay Hassen is we think the person behind the
Speaker 1: big story on the far right that Kamala Harris should
Speaker 1: not be president of the United States because nowhere in
Speaker 1: her past resumes, autobiographies, or campaigns does it say she
Speaker 1: worked at McDonald's. You may have heard she worked at McDonald's, new,
Speaker 1: writes Peter J. Hassen. And there's a picture of Mickey
Speaker 1: De's at least the logo the Golden Arches. And next
Speaker 1: to a picture of that is picture of Kamala Harris
Speaker 1: looking concerned as she holds a microphone. New Kamala Harris's
Speaker 1: missing summer job at McDonald's job. Uh Kamala Harris is
Speaker 1: missing summer job at McDonald's job. The guy has a
Speaker 1: blue check on Twitter x and he didn't edit this.
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris is missing summer job at McDonald's job. I
Speaker 1: got a new job for you, fella, and it is
Speaker 1: not in the grammar police her resume and job application
Speaker 1: a year after graduating college free beacon obtained through FOIA.
Speaker 1: Didn't mention it. Yeah, okay, neither to either of her
Speaker 1: books or either of the biographies on her exclusive report
Speaker 1: from Chuck Somebody and Andrew and Simon something Peter Jay
Speaker 1: Hassen editor, He offers subscriptions to his feed in which
Speaker 1: he writes things like Kamala Harris's missing summer job at
Speaker 1: McDonald's job, her resume, job and job application job a
Speaker 1: year job after graduating job college job, beginning to sound
Speaker 1: like a money Python script. In any event, I'd like
Speaker 1: to just point something out. This is the Vice president
Speaker 1: of the United States. Why on her resume, even when
Speaker 1: she was just a graduate from university, why would she
Speaker 1: include a summer job. A summer job at McDonald's. No
Speaker 1: offense to anybody who's ever had a summer job at McDonald's,
Speaker 1: but I just point something out. I have not had
Speaker 1: a lot of jobs in the real world. I've been
Speaker 1: in media almost all of my life. However, one summer
Speaker 1: I had a job once with real work involved in it,
Speaker 1: something between freelance and independent contractor. I was sixteen years old,
Speaker 1: and I managed to figure out that instead of trying
Speaker 1: to buy and sell the Baseball cards that came on
Speaker 1: the back of Hostess cupcakes and other Hostess confectionery and
Speaker 1: baked goods in the summer of nineteen seventy five, instead
Speaker 1: of simply buying the boxes retail or maybe even wholesale,
Speaker 1: there was a place called the host Store in which
Speaker 1: they would sell day old or two day old or
Speaker 1: a couple hours passed the expiration date, bread and other
Speaker 1: baked goods for lower prices, and then if they didn't sell,
Speaker 1: I wondered what happened to them. My dad and I
Speaker 1: went to the one nearest our home. We went in
Speaker 1: and talked to the guy, and he said, well, after that,
Speaker 1: they'd all go in that dumpster over there. I swear
Speaker 1: to God, as big a dumpster as I've ever seen
Speaker 1: in my life. The ones in the dumpster fire memes
Speaker 1: not as big as this dumpster, and in that dumpster
Speaker 1: were all the boxes with the baseball cards on them.
Speaker 1: And where do they go from here? Well, we send
Speaker 1: them to Jersey and they feed them to the hogs.
Speaker 1: My job, and I created this job. I was a
Speaker 1: job creator at age sixteen. My job was I paid
Speaker 1: this guy a fee to hop into this dumpster with
Speaker 1: an exact o knife and cut the baseball cards off
Speaker 1: the boxes for the boxes and the now you know,
Speaker 1: three week old twinkies and ding dongs and everything else
Speaker 1: that they sold went out to New Jersey to be
Speaker 1: fed to the pigs. The smell of a six day
Speaker 1: old twinkie is contrary to rumor that they have the
Speaker 1: shelf life of a cockroach or a rat or I
Speaker 1: don't know, radioactive carbon dating material. A six day old
Speaker 1: twinkie left out in the elements begins to smell six
Speaker 1: or seven hundred of them, and the bugs that accompany
Speaker 1: them they smell bad too. But I went in there
Speaker 1: for hour after hour cutting these things off, and frankly,
Speaker 1: I was able to sell them for about a dollar apiece.
Speaker 1: I must have gotten about a thousand of them. You
Speaker 1: know what. I did not mention this on any of
Speaker 1: my job applications in the let's see forty forty five,
Speaker 1: now forty nine years since then. This is what I
Speaker 1: was doing forty nine years ago, and for some reason
Speaker 1: I left it off my resume. I have a copy
Speaker 1: outside of this studio right now of my resume from
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy nine, which includes things that I don't know
Speaker 1: why I put them on, like my height and weight.
Speaker 1: Who needs a height and weight on a resume? But
Speaker 1: there it was, I guess for television purposes. I don't
Speaker 1: know what I was thinking. It says height and weight.
Speaker 1: It does not say hostess, dumpster diver, hostess thrift chop
Speaker 1: dumpster diver in nineteen seventy five, and I had no
Speaker 1: intention of running to be attorney general of any state
Speaker 1: or a senator or vice president of United States, were
Speaker 1: president of the United States. I didn't put it on
Speaker 1: my resume. And I've written, now I guess, three books
Speaker 1: that have included at least in part autobiographies. I have
Speaker 1: mentioned it in any of those. Either I didn't put
Speaker 1: it on my resume. And this guy Hassen, you know him,
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris is missing summer job at McDonald's job Hassen
Speaker 1: he's in the Daily Caller News Foundation. I'm confident that
Speaker 1: he hasn't put that on his resume. Kamala Harris didn't
Speaker 1: put her job at McDonald's on her resume, which would
Speaker 1: be the same thing as you know, if she worked
Speaker 1: at the Free Beacon, she wouldn't say, put that on
Speaker 1: her resume either. Morons the runner up the silver Now
Speaker 1: it gets a little darker. Tulsy Gabbard. You remember Tulsa Gabbard.
Speaker 1: Every time you think there is some sort of bottom
Speaker 1: for old skunk hair, turns out you are mistaken. Tulsi,
Speaker 1: of course, is still mad that her bid for the
Speaker 1: presidential nomination in twenty twenty earned her exactly two delegates.
Speaker 1: She is, now, though, dropped below that red line of
Speaker 1: respectability where you have to now not say her name
Speaker 1: without putting an obscenity in the middle of it. You know,
Speaker 1: Tulsey effing Gabbard. That's her name now, because, as I
Speaker 1: quote also twitter x, Harris's CNN interview exposed her as
Speaker 1: insecure and weak, which of course is exactly the qualities
Speaker 1: that will make her again. Grammar is not Tulsi's strength,
Speaker 1: which of course is exactly the qualities that will make
Speaker 1: her the perfect puppet uh oh, controlled by the faceless
Speaker 1: power hungry warmongers who run our country right now, she
Speaker 1: will be the dream quote president unquote for the You're
Speaker 1: ready puppet masters, Tulsy Gabbard writes, puppet masters, because she'll
Speaker 1: be so easy to control and influence. I don't know
Speaker 1: how many people there are left in this country who
Speaker 1: would not recognize the phrase puppet masters for what it is.
Speaker 1: The American Jewish Center and the SPLC, the Southern Poverty
Speaker 1: Law Center both identify the phrase puppet masters, the one
Speaker 1: Telsy Gabbard used. They identify that phrase as an anti
Speaker 1: Semitic trope. It's jew hate in common parlance, and Tulsey
Speaker 1: Gabbard just used it and also made a grammatical mistake
Speaker 1: in there. So her next stop book is clearly to
Speaker 1: become an editor of the Free Beacon. But our winner,
Speaker 1: how do you top that? Well, you move from anti
Speaker 1: semitism to pure misogyny and racial hatred and just grossness.
Speaker 1: And that's Eric Ericksson. It's hard to believe now, but
Speaker 1: Eric Erickson, who's always been kind of a schmuck, has
Speaker 1: seen the entirety of the right wing movement move past
Speaker 1: him as they have gone into proverbial you know, hostess,
Speaker 1: thrift shop, dumpster diving. He stayed right where he was schmuck,
Speaker 1: and now he's seen as some sort of moderate who
Speaker 1: doesn't want Trump or Harris. But this is how disoriented
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, being a woman of color, being an intelligent person,
Speaker 1: being a woman, How all these things have disoriented them
Speaker 1: beyond their ability to shot the f up. You remember
Speaker 1: Eric Ericson, apart from the joke I always use about
Speaker 1: him that he's one of those guys like Lars Larson
Speaker 1: and Hugh Hewitt, came from a family so poor we
Speaker 1: could only afford the one syllable for our name. In
Speaker 1: the immediate aftermath of when the Maga gun nut shot
Speaker 1: at Trump, he put out a tweet blaming it on
Speaker 1: MSNBC in Comcast. He's also the guy who, three weeks ago,
Speaker 1: barely three weeks ago, wrote at this point, the GOP
Speaker 1: has so devastated Tim Walls, I wouldn't be surprised to
Speaker 1: see Josh Shapiro show up at the DNC as their
Speaker 1: vice presidential pick. Well, of course, as we know he
Speaker 1: got that one right. Well, Eric's misogyny and racism is
Speaker 1: now leaking out of his ears. This is Eric Ericksson
Speaker 1: talking about the Vice president of the United States and
Speaker 1: how she got to that position and what she's doing
Speaker 1: now running for president. This is him.
Speaker 3: People who were so willing to say, oh, we have
Speaker 3: to support Kamala Harris because she's going to stop Donald Trump.
Speaker 3: You know what, She's an authoritarian Kamala Harris. Did you
Speaker 3: pay attention to her record as Attorney general in California?
Speaker 3: You really want me to believe that we have to
Speaker 3: save democracy by voting for Kamala Harris. If Kamala Harris
Speaker 3: could get in office and ensure she'd never leave again,
Speaker 3: she'd do it. Kamala Harris has done nothing but climbed
Speaker 3: the ladder of power since the moment she got up
Speaker 3: off her knees in front of Willie Brown.
Speaker 1: To put it bluntly to you, every Republican accusation is
Speaker 1: an admission. Just remember that I would make the same
Speaker 1: slander about Eric Erickson. But if you've ever seen Eric Erickson,
Speaker 1: if you go look up the video that I just
Speaker 1: played there, you would know that if ever in his
Speaker 1: life he had gotten down on his knees they would
Speaker 1: need a winch to get him upright again. Eric Erickson,
Speaker 1: you're worse than Tulsey Gabbard two days worse person and Lord.
Speaker 1: Finally to the number one story on the countdown and
Speaker 1: my favorite topic, me and things I promised not to
Speaker 1: tell so September again. I literally don't know anybody whoever
Speaker 1: shakes the childhood dread of back to school days in
Speaker 1: August and the beginning of September. Third grade, high school,
Speaker 1: college doesn't matter. Forty four degrees, ninety four degrees, doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: It's September and by now. The dread, even if you
Speaker 1: liked school, remains until the day you die, especially if
Speaker 1: it invokes memories like the one I have about the
Speaker 1: day I nearly failed a for credit course in college
Speaker 1: because of a fumble in a professional football game. Forty
Speaker 1: four years ago. This week, I actually walked reluctantly but
Speaker 1: proudly into a class at Cornell University. If I remem correctly.
Speaker 1: To get into Professor Joel Silby's nineteenth Century American history
Speaker 1: course eight credits spanning two semesters, I had to get
Speaker 1: special permission from the History department because I was not
Speaker 1: a history major. I just took all the history classes
Speaker 1: they would let me, and this was one of the
Speaker 1: best ones. And I remember Professor Silby's first lecture and
Speaker 1: the accent and the mannerisms that quickly identified him not
Speaker 1: only as a fellow native New Yorker, but as a
Speaker 1: Brookly Knight and a Brookly Knight fan of as he
Speaker 1: quickly told us the New York Football Giants. What Professor
Speaker 1: Joel Silby said next, cause the I think it was
Speaker 1: two hundred or so other students in the lecture hall
Speaker 1: to laugh, all of them except me, because I was
Speaker 1: the sports director of the Cornhill student owned radio station,
Speaker 1: and in those days, you could actually know everything about
Speaker 1: and everybody in all the national sports off the top
Speaker 1: of your head. And usually that meant you could figure
Speaker 1: out all the teams in all the sports that had
Speaker 1: the lightest chance of succeeding, and all the teams and
Speaker 1: all the sports that did not. And the New York
Speaker 1: Football Giants did not. I want you to know, I
Speaker 1: graded the papers, not the teaching assistance me and I
Speaker 1: happened to be a lifelong, therefore long suffering fan of
Speaker 1: the New York Football Giants. I saw my first Giants
Speaker 1: game in nineteen forty five, and over the years I
Speaker 1: happened to have developed this habit of grading your papers
Speaker 1: on Sunday afternoons and evenings right after I watch my
Speaker 1: New York Football Giants. So, to some degree great or small,
Speaker 1: your grade will depend on how well the New York
Speaker 1: Football Giants do in this nineteen seventy eight National Football
Speaker 1: League season. One hundred and ninety nine of Joel Silbey's
Speaker 1: students laughed. I emitted a low moan, since they had
Speaker 1: gone to five NFL championship games in the six seasons
Speaker 1: ending in nineteen sixty three and lost all five. By
Speaker 1: the way, the Giants had had exact actly two winning seasons,
Speaker 1: and they had lost nine of fourteen games the year
Speaker 1: before nineteen seventy seven. Though they had opened this nineteen
Speaker 1: seventy eight season with a narrow victory over a very
Speaker 1: bad Tampa Bay team, and the first half of their
Speaker 1: schedule had as many as four more opponents who they
Speaker 1: might be better than they would be lucky to win
Speaker 1: two games in the second half of the season. When
Speaker 1: I got back to the radio station, I looked at
Speaker 1: the Giants' schedule and Professor Silby's class schedule and I
Speaker 1: circled one critical day when the schedules converged Sunday, November nineteenth,
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy eight. Our term papers were due on Thursday
Speaker 1: the sixteenth. He could actually read them all after the
Speaker 1: Giants Eagles game that night. In the following day. Amazingly,
Speaker 1: your New York Football Giants actually opened the season winning
Speaker 1: three of their first four. In the middle of October,
Speaker 1: they were still five and three, and in the history
Speaker 1: lecture room, Professor Sylvie was very happy, and he often
Speaker 1: recreated highlights of his his glorious Giants pleasing success, and
Speaker 1: he was furiously fanboying on the new quarterback they'd brought
Speaker 1: in from the Canadian League, Joe Pisarchick. If you are
Speaker 1: a football history fan, or god forbid, a fan of
Speaker 1: the New York Football Giants, you already know where I'm
Speaker 1: going with this. The Giants lost the next three games,
Speaker 1: and then our term papers were due on November sixteenth,
Speaker 1: and Joel Sylbey turned morose. And I was at the
Speaker 1: radio station watching the Giants Eagles game of the nineteenth
Speaker 1: on a big black and white TV in the lounge
Speaker 1: when my nightmare unfolded impossibly. The Giants led the much
Speaker 1: better Philadelphia Eagles fourteen to nothing. After the first quarter.
Speaker 1: Pisarcik threw two touchdown passes. After the third quarter, it
Speaker 1: was still seventeen to six Giants. Then the Eagles scored,
Speaker 1: and they were driving to go ahead with a minute
Speaker 1: and a half left in the game, when the impossible
Speaker 1: happened deep in Giants' territory. The Philly quarterback threw an
Speaker 1: interception with eighty three seconds left and in possession of
Speaker 1: the ball. The Giants led seventeen thirteen. The crowd at
Speaker 1: the radio station was ecstatic. I was even more ecstatic.
Speaker 1: All the Giants now had to do was stall and
Speaker 1: have the quarterback fall on the ball, maybe twice, as
Speaker 1: if he had heard me. The quarterback, Joe Pisarcik, fell
Speaker 1: on the ball. Then he nearly killed me by handing
Speaker 1: the ball off to his running back Larry Zanka, who
Speaker 1: plowed up the middle to get a first down and
Speaker 1: burn another thirty seconds off the clock. The Eagles called
Speaker 1: their last time out thirty one seconds left, thirty one
Speaker 1: seconds to my grade in Joel Silbey's nineteenth century American
Speaker 1: history class, probably ending up being half or maybe even
Speaker 1: a full grade. Better than I deserved. All Joe Pisarchi
Speaker 1: had to do was fall on the damn ball again
Speaker 1: and it was over. However, on the Giants sideline, offensive
Speaker 1: coordinator Bob Gibson decided that the safe play, the winning play,
Speaker 1: was for Jopisarcik to hand the ball off again to
Speaker 1: Larry Zanka. Now that might have been the right play,
Speaker 1: only Bob Gibson and everybody else failed to tell Larry Zanka.
Speaker 1: Larry Zanka assumed he was there just to block for
Speaker 1: Joe Pisarcik, as Joe Pisarcik collapsed to the turf and
Speaker 1: ran out the clock and got me a better grade. Instead,
Speaker 1: Pisarchik handed the ball to where Zanka's hands should have been,
Speaker 1: except Larry Zanka was in the blocking stance, and Pisarchik
Speaker 1: in fact handed it off directly to Larry Zanka's helmet.
Speaker 1: I screamed. The ball bounced once off the turf and
Speaker 1: directly into the hands of Philadelphia cornerback Herman Edwards. I
Speaker 1: continued to scream. There was nobody near Edwards, and he
Speaker 1: scooted twenty six yards into the end zone and the
Speaker 1: Giants lost the damn game. Nineteen to seventeen. In the
Speaker 1: last seconds, and as the Giants fans at the radio
Speaker 1: station shouted or moaned or swore, I could see Professor
Speaker 1: Joel Sylvie shutting off the TV, grabbing our papers and
Speaker 1: sentencing us to hell, and I continued to scream. Our
Speaker 1: term papers were returned on Tuesday the twenty first, just
Speaker 1: before school broke for Thanksgiving. I actually was thankful I
Speaker 1: got either a B or a B plus. I can't
Speaker 1: find the paper. It should be somewhere in a box.
Speaker 1: There was a rumor which I was never able to confirm,
Speaker 1: that my B or B plus was the highest grade
Speaker 1: in the class. I can confirm. I saw classmates most
Speaker 1: far more prepared and astute than myself, most of them
Speaker 1: history majors, looking at their grades and blanching visibly. One
Speaker 1: girl cried, a C, really a C. Professor Joel Silbey
Speaker 1: said much of our grade would depend on how well
Speaker 1: the New York Football Giants did in that nineteen seventy
Speaker 1: eight National football season, and my god, they had just
Speaker 1: sustained a loss so bad that it has still talked
Speaker 1: about to this day. My classmates did not listen, and
Speaker 1: I only am escaped alone to tell thee there is
Speaker 1: a PostScript. The PostScript takes place thirty two and one
Speaker 1: half years later. I returned to Cornell in March of
Speaker 1: twenty eleven to give a lecture and teach a series
Speaker 1: of classes to students who no longer afterwards felt they
Speaker 1: had gotten their full money from the university. My alma
Speaker 1: mater was very kind to me. They gave me a
Speaker 1: tour of the secret places they never would have shown
Speaker 1: me when I was a struggling student, like where they
Speaker 1: kept Cornell's copy of the Gettysburg address. And they promised
Speaker 1: me something special for lunch the first day, And sure
Speaker 1: enough I was dropped off at a restaurant, and there,
Speaker 1: rising from a table to greet me with applause, were
Speaker 1: Cornell's official historian and former Professor Glenn Altschuler, and their
Speaker 1: very famous history professor Walter Lefeber, and I swear Professor
Speaker 1: Joel Silby, and they were fans of mine. Of course,
Speaker 1: I could not leave well enough alone. After a few
Speaker 1: minutes of very pleasant conversation with mister alt Schuller and
Speaker 1: Professor la Faber and Professor Silby, I brought up the
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy eight term paper Joe pisarcik handoff story. Professor
Speaker 1: la Faber looked at Professor Silby like Professor Silby was
Speaker 1: out of his mind. Is that true? And Sylby smiled
Speaker 1: and said, yes, yes it is. And then Joel Silby
Speaker 1: looked off into the distance as if he were peering
Speaker 1: backwards through time. Nineteen seventy eight, that's when you could
Speaker 1: really enjoy being a professor. He then looked back at
Speaker 1: me and smiled, Keith, you won't believe this, but I
Speaker 1: actually graded those papers pretty fairly, and I didn't follow
Speaker 1: through on my original plan. After the fumble, I actually
Speaker 1: turned off the TV and I sat there for a
Speaker 1: few minutes, and I asked my soul if it was
Speaker 1: okay for me to take my revenge on the universe
Speaker 1: by failing all of you. Gulped Oh, said Sylby. It
Speaker 1: was so great to be a professor back then. I
Speaker 1: laughed so much I had tears in my eyes. And
Speaker 1: then Sylbe said, okay, okay, maybe I was a little
Speaker 1: unfair to you guys, but you know, it's the Giants
Speaker 1: and you have to take this as a whole. The
Speaker 1: year they won their first Super Bowl, what was that
Speaker 1: eighty six. The final exam in that class was like
Speaker 1: two days after they finished the regular season, fourteen and two,
Speaker 1: eight o'clock in the morning. So I go to the
Speaker 1: final see, which I never do. And I waited until
Speaker 1: they were all sitting there sweating, and I said, remember
Speaker 1: last September when I told you your grade will depend
Speaker 1: on how well the New York Football Giants doing this
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty six National Football League season. And it was
Speaker 1: just silence, and I said, well, if you didn't notice,
Speaker 1: they went fourteen and two, and I haven't been this
Speaker 1: happy since when they won the title in nineteen fifty six.
Speaker 1: So guess what, there's no final exam. And nobody moved,
Speaker 1: so I said it again, there's no final exam, Go home,
Speaker 1: go study for something else. Y'all get a's. And then
Speaker 1: there was a couple of seconds of silence, and they
Speaker 1: all simultaneously realized I was not kidding, and everybody cheered
Speaker 1: and ran out into the sunshine. So with me and
Speaker 1: professors Altschuler and la Faber, now in tears, Sylby said,
Speaker 1: see it evens out, and I said, the hell it does.
Speaker 1: I graduated in nineteen seventy nine, How does it canceled
Speaker 1: final in nineteen eighty six. Even it out for me, Fella.
Speaker 1: Joel Silby thought for a second and then he said, Wow,
Speaker 1: I am buying you lunch forty six years ago. Forty
Speaker 1: six years ago? What did I say? Forty three? Twenty three?
Speaker 1: It was nineteen seventy eight. See, I was considered a
Speaker 1: math prodigy. However, this was when I was still very
Speaker 1: short and had blonde hair, all of which has changed.
Speaker 1: I just like to add and subtract numbers. Now I'm
Speaker 1: not even any good at that anymore. When we got
Speaker 1: finally to algebra, I would just sit and stare at
Speaker 1: the board and ask the math teacher which side was
Speaker 1: the question and which side was the answer? And I
Speaker 1: turned my head upside down, so I was looking upside down.
Speaker 1: That's when he said, take the class, pass fail and
Speaker 1: I'll pass you forty nineteen seventy eight. It was AnyWho,
Speaker 1: I've done all the damage I can do here. Thank
Speaker 1: you for listening. Please share this podcast with somebody who
Speaker 1: does not yet listen. And again, if you're just joining
