1 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:15,240 Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 2 00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:19,320 Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Katty. 3 00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,639 Speaker 2: Armstrong and Joky enough he. 4 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:35,880 Speaker 3: Arms from the studio scene. 5 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,559 Speaker 2: See you are, am I correct that it is the 6 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:41,599 Speaker 2: common workday known as Friday that tends to people get 7 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:45,360 Speaker 2: people's hearts racing with excitement. That's pretty exciting. 8 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 4: Your heart is racing with excitement. See your physician right away. 9 00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 4: You've taken one too many flomax or something. Anyway, dimly 10 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 4: let room, et cetera, et cetera. Today we're under the 11 00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 4: tutelage of our general manager, the enthusiastic about anyone in particular, 12 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 4: I have a decent one. 13 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 2: Anything leap to mind. I hadn't thought about it. If 14 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 2: I was gonna think about it for a second, you know, 15 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,759 Speaker 2: maybe Rand Paul. We've got some great audio from Rand PAULA. 16 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 2: You know what I was gonna go with was Donald 17 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 2: Trump and his arch nemesis, Donald Trump right right. I 18 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 2: was just reading Mark Helprin's morning newsletter before we went 19 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 2: on the air, as I do every single day. I 20 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 2: think he's the best political reporter in America. But he 21 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 2: said there are no articles anywhere with anybody, even on 22 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:43,200 Speaker 2: background explaining why he decided to attack the pilots yesterday 23 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 2: of the helicopter after a crash, just speculate, And Mark 24 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 2: Helprin's summary was, that's just because that's who he is 25 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 2: and always has been and always will be. And some 26 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 2: people like it, some people put up with it. It's 27 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 2: not gonna do him any harm because nothing new and 28 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 2: the end, Yeah, the attack in the pilot's thing was 29 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 2: weird and bad. The DEI stuff. Originally, I thought, well, 30 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 2: it's pretty early to be jumping on that as an 31 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 2: excuse or anything like that. But it's becoming more and 32 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 2: more clear that there is a tremendous lack of air 33 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 2: traffic controllers around the country, including at Reagan Airport at 34 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 2: the time of the crash. They're having way fewer than 35 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 2: they are supposed to have. They're supposed to have thirty 36 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 2: and they have nineteen or something like that, and particularly 37 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 2: that night dealing with that they had one instead of two. 38 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,799 Speaker 2: And there was a lawsuit last year. One thousand people 39 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 2: that had applied to be air traffic controllers got together 40 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 2: with a class action lawsuit and now it hasn't been 41 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 2: settled yet, but they are claiming that they got turned 42 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:53,359 Speaker 2: away because of their race. They were otherwise qualified. If 43 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 2: it turns out that we have half as many air 44 00:02:56,120 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 2: traffic controllers in this country, then we're supposed to because 45 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 2: you're turning away people that are qualified. Right, because of 46 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 2: the whole DEEI thing, that's going to be quite the 47 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 2: explosive story, whether or not that directly was the reason 48 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 2: this crash happened. Who knows? All right, Well, first to 49 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 2: the first part of the point. Yeah, I've come across 50 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,239 Speaker 2: some stuff that I'll share later on that suggests very 51 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 2: very strongly that the standards and the methods by which 52 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 2: we get our air traffic controllers were perverted completely to 53 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 2: serve DEI goals. So he's absolutely right on that. I 54 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 2: just my gripe with it was that was not the 55 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 2: time and to throw it out there without evidence instead 56 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 2: of presenting it as a rock solid indictment that nobody 57 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 2: could deny and winning the day is just you know, 58 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 2: just a loose reference here and kind of a half 59 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 2: accusation there, and that's not the way to prosecute a 60 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 2: case and turn the ship of the culture around. I 61 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 2: just find it frustrating. Yeah, Well, if the topic is 62 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 2: critiquing Trump's press conference, that's true. Moved on to the 63 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 2: what's wrong with our air traffic control system because clearly 64 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 2: they got half as many people as they're supposed to. Well, yeah, 65 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 2: but my point is if you want to fix it, 66 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 2: you can't be dopey strategically. Yeah, yes, it's a huge issue. 67 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 2: Pete Hegzeth is out on it and he is going 68 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 2: to get to the bottom of it, and uh yeah, 69 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 2: and if that turns out to be the case, So 70 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 2: they laid off so many air traffic controllers over COVID 71 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 2: when nobody was flying, and then when people tried to 72 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,839 Speaker 2: come back to work when people started flying again, they 73 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 2: wouldn't let a whole bunch of people come back because 74 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,600 Speaker 2: they weren't the right color or gender or sexual orientation 75 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 2: or whatever those quota is intact. That's despicable. Well, if 76 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 2: that's the case, and it sure looks like it is, 77 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 2: and it doesn't need to be the specific cause of 78 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 2: this crash, right, it's so horrific, And I think it's 79 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 2: interesting The New York Times has really gone big on 80 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 2: this story for what reason. The whole we talked about 81 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 2: this yesterday at the end of the show why what 82 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 2: airplane crashes get so much attention. I mean, it's just 83 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,840 Speaker 2: amazing we've had. This is the worst one we've had, 84 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 2: and now it's like twenty five years or something like that. 85 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 2: It almost never happens. It's the safest thing you'll do today, 86 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 2: if you go fly on a plane. It's certainly safer 87 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 2: than driving to the airport. But anyway, we go crazy 88 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 2: over air crashes. Washington Crash renews concerns about air safety 89 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 2: lapses since the New York Times, and they get into 90 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 2: a lot of how we're understaffed at Reagan Airport and 91 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 2: at airports all across the country. They do not get 92 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 2: into the why because that might be uncomfortable, But hmm, 93 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 2: that is interesting that they are pointing out that a 94 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 2: lack of air traffic controllers is a big hole we've 95 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 2: got all across the United States. Air traffic control tower 96 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,119 Speaker 2: at Reagan National has been understaffed for years. The tower 97 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,159 Speaker 2: there was nearly a third below targeted staff levels, with 98 00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 2: nineteen fully certified controllers as of this past fall, when 99 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:05,479 Speaker 2: they're supposed to have thirty some. But again, they don't 100 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 2: get into the why. Well, we're going to get into 101 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 2: the y or the Trump administration is going to get 102 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 2: into the why well, and we are too, And it 103 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:18,159 Speaker 2: is a shocking indictment. And you know, this is the 104 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,479 Speaker 2: age of hyperbole, and I hate to sound like I'm 105 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 2: just trying to be hyperbolic, but it is truly a 106 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 2: shocking indictment of the way the federal government has been 107 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 2: run and how it's leached into society. Something as critical 108 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 2: as life and death as air traffic control was perverted 109 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 2: to become some sort of social upward mobility program, regardless 110 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 2: of qualification. It shocks the conscience. It does if it 111 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 2: turns out and it really looks like it's going to 112 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,799 Speaker 2: that we have half as many controllers as we're supposed 113 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 2: to because you didn't want white males to get the 114 00:06:53,839 --> 00:07:00,160 Speaker 2: job or whatever. That's insane. Yeah, and you think that's okay, 115 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 2: that is crazy. So yeah, maybe even if that wasn't 116 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 2: specific the reason and be impossible to nail that down, obviously, 117 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 2: it doesn't make any difference. That's somebody at some point 118 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 2: decided that's how many air traffic controllers we should have 119 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 2: and how many we used to have right in the end. 120 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 2: But again, even if that horrific tragedy hadn't occurred very 121 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 2: very recently, it would still be an incredible problem that 122 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 2: needed to be solved. I'd say, just outrageous. Well, I 123 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 2: believe that played a role in some of those meltdowns 124 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 2: over some of the holidays where we you know, the 125 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 2: planes got all out of whack and backed up and 126 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 2: everything like that, because the lack of air traffic controllers 127 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 2: and being able to deal with the number of flights 128 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 2: and stuff like that. So just conveys in addition to safety. Well, 129 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 2: I've heard fifty times we don't have enough air traffic controllers. Yeah, 130 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 2: without pointing out the why. Now we're pointing out the why. 131 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 2: I can't believe how off track we got and we 132 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 2: all and we're gonna go another four years down that road. 133 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 5: Whoa oe. 134 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 2: As doctor Savage said many years ago, I'm paraphrasing, progressivism 135 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 2: is a mental disorder. I want to start the show officially. 136 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 2: Then I want to tease a couple of things that 137 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 2: I think are really really interesting on on a Friday, Man, 138 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 2: I have been sleeping so poorly this week. I got 139 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 2: to get figured out. Oh me and my son both 140 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 2: got off track where we're so tired that we went 141 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,679 Speaker 2: to bed super early. Couple nights ago. Well, we went 142 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 2: to bed so early, we woke up in the middle 143 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 2: of the night. But then you end up, you know, 144 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 2: you get in a you get stuck in a loop 145 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 2: there where then like yesterday, we went to bed really 146 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 2: really early because we were so tired we could barely 147 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:44,599 Speaker 2: move around the house. But then we're up in the 148 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 2: middle of the night again. Anyway, I'm laying there awake 149 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 2: from like one thirty on. And when when are you 150 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 2: sound asleep? Where when are you so deep asleep? It's 151 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 2: like you're in a coma when your alarm goes off. Oh, 152 00:08:56,160 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 2: it's just, it's just, it's just it's just tartarus, oh, melitonia, 153 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 2: like you've been drugged and you just don't wake up. 154 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,839 Speaker 2: It's the worst I feel. Yeah, I'm Jack Armstrong. He's 155 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 2: Joe Getting on this Friday, January thirty, first year, twenty 156 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 2: five or Armstrong in getting. We approve of this program. 157 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,199 Speaker 2: All right, let's begin that officially according the FCC rules 158 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 2: and regulations, the FCC a strict meritocracy. By the way, 159 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 2: here we go proceeding at Mark. 160 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 5: I chose to wait on my hepatitis B vaccine, and 161 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 5: we did it when they went to schools. That made 162 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 5: me an awful person? Does that make me an anti vaxxer? 163 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 5: Because I questioned the government dictative whether I do it. 164 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 5: And I'm not speaking for anybody else. I'm only speaking 165 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,320 Speaker 5: for myself. But for goodness sakes, let's have an honest 166 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 5: debate about these things. 167 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 2: Senator Ran Paul, You don't want him for a neighbor 168 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 2: because he'll put your his long clippings on your lawn. 169 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 2: But well, I know how to turn that around. That's 170 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 2: a great rant yesterday about the hearings about vaccinations, about 171 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 2: a whole bunch of different stuff that we will feature 172 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 2: later in the show, really really good, thought provoking stuff. 173 00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 2: I thought it was terrific, especially the last part. Whatever 174 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 2: he's think about, you know, vaccines in the schedule and 175 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 2: the rest of it. But he echoed the point that 176 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 2: was made in that brilliant essay I was reading part 177 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,959 Speaker 2: of the other day that the only thing that really 178 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 2: threatens us is not people getting something wrong. It's when 179 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 2: we're forbidden from saying it's wrong, or questioning it or 180 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 2: having an honest debate about it. That is when something 181 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 2: is dangerous. So yeah, let's talk about all this. So 182 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,479 Speaker 2: I was just wondering those of you did dry January. 183 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 2: It's the thirty first, you're gonna go ahead and not 184 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 2: drink tonight. I would think if I liked to drink 185 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 2: at all, I would think I made my point. It's Friday, 186 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 2: gonna go Hendry. If you're not gonna drink to night 187 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 2: for dry January, then you should get no credit for 188 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,959 Speaker 2: dry January. You're not really a drinker anyway, so look 189 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 2: to do. That's like me. That's like me saying I 190 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 2: did know yoga January and I stayed away from yoga 191 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 2: the whole month for instance. Yeah, I see your point 192 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 2: or I don't. I don't know if I agree with 193 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 2: you. You're just you're doggedly going to finish it because you 194 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 2: committed to it. God bless you. I think you made 195 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 2: the point. Go ahead drinking before they got him. How 196 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 2: does mailbag look? Oh, it's fine.

Yeah, 272 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 2: it's so interesting that human beings need to be reminded 273 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 2: of that sort of thing now.

Diversity is an advantage. Unity is our strength. 281 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 2: But the fact that we have a system under which 282 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 2: diverse people can unite is our advantage over every single 283 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 2: nation on Earth, where racial and ethnic divisions always cause 284 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 2: violent tensions and conflict. Liberals must take the effect for 285 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 2: the cause the unity of ideals, the American ideal, which 286 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 2: brings diverse people together. Bringing diverse people together does not 287 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 2: produce unity. Unity brings people together, I would agree. Plunging along, 288 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 2: we received a number of amusing or troubling stories about 289 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 2: school bus drivers in the wake of a tale we 290 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 2: told the other day. This is my favorite Matt and 291 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 2: beautiful Macomb, Illinois. When he was a young marine in 292 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 2: the Northern Territory of Australia. He came across this headline 293 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 2: in the local paper, Mates put rum in school bus 294 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:07,120 Speaker 2: driver's beer. Oh. Evidently having a beer as you make 295 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 2: her rounds was perfectly normal in Australia in two thousand 296 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:12,679 Speaker 2: and one. But his buddies put rum into his beer 297 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 2: and that was seen as a bad thing. Wow, two 298 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 2: great tastes. It tastes great. Together. We had a lot 299 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:21,639 Speaker 2: more news to catch up on. I think it'll be 300 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 2: a good show. I hope you can stick around if 301 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 2: you missed a second in the podcast Armstrong and Getty 302 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 2: ond bed Armstrong and Getty. 303 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:32,479 Speaker 5: I vaccinated all my kids. I believe vaccines are one 304 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 5: of the modern miracles. Beyond all Pale. The Speckled Monster 305 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 5: is a great book about the introduction of the smallpox 306 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 5: vaccine in seventeen twenty into our country. All miracles, But 307 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 5: I'm not a one size fits all. It's not all 308 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 5: or nothing. I chose to wait on my hepatitis bee 309 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 5: vaccine and we did it when they went to schools. 310 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 5: That make me an awful person? Does that make me 311 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:55,920 Speaker 5: an anti vaxxer? Because I questioned the government dictative whether 312 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 5: I do it, and I'm not speaking for anybody else. 313 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 5: I'm only speaking for myself. But for goodness, let's have 314 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:02,439 Speaker 5: an honest debate about these things. 315 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 2: Ran Paul with pretty long rant during the hearings this week. 316 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:09,160 Speaker 2: A lot of we shouldn't call it a rant because 317 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 2: that has a negative connotations. It's really really interesting and 318 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 2: we're going to play more of it. Yeah, and I 319 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,640 Speaker 2: appreciate it. One of our themes of late has been 320 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 2: that the silencing of opposition is evil and almost always 321 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,159 Speaker 2: leads to evil, no matter the intentions, whether it's in 322 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 2: COVID or you know. And that's part of Rand's you 323 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 2: know speech here. So I'm not going to steal all 324 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,159 Speaker 2: of a sudden, but the term alone pro vacs are 325 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:38,680 Speaker 2: anti vax Which vaccine are we talking about? Why have 326 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 2: an overall category of vaccines where they are all either 327 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:46,679 Speaker 2: bad or all good? That's nuts, Or any discussion of 328 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:48,880 Speaker 2: the schedule in which they're given, by which they're given 329 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,119 Speaker 2: or whatever is just that makes you an anti vaxxer. 330 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,120 Speaker 2: That was going to be my next point. The other 331 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 2: trend that we've seen writ large, and I don't know 332 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 2: if it's the Internet or it just always existed. Is 333 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 2: that certain people, certain political parties, government officials have really 334 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 2: taken to hanging labels on anybody who dares question anything, 335 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 2: And by question, I mean, can we talk about this? 336 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 2: Why are we doing this in this way? You're an 337 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,719 Speaker 2: anti whatever, or you're a puppet of whatever, you're a 338 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 2: neocon or what have you. The discrediting you know, name 339 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 2: that they paint on you just kindahired on a different 340 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:34,199 Speaker 2: topic I heard it presented. Is so crazy that this 341 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 2: cash pateell a guy, a guy who's criticized the very 342 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 2: organization he's hoping to run. What kind of world do 343 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 2: you live in? Where you should that that's out of line? Yeah? 344 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 2: What a strange world. It is all right, much to 345 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 2: be said, But let's let the Randy man take it over. Michael. 346 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 2: We'll just proceed on with the next clip. 347 00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,639 Speaker 5: The COVID vaccine. If you ask me my opinion, they 348 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:01,199 Speaker 5: were a poor run mping down the sol and they 349 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 5: say you still anti vaccine. No, I'm pro vaccine. But 350 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 5: on the COVID vaccine and on the COVID illness, there 351 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 5: was a thousandfold or more difference between the elderly and children. 352 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 5: If you don't acknowledge that you're committing malpractice. You're showing 353 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,120 Speaker 5: your ignorance if you say a six month old must 354 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 5: be mandated to get it. The science is not there. 355 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 5: So all this blather about the science says this, and 356 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 5: the science says that, No, it doesn't. The science actually 357 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,880 Speaker 5: shows it. No healthy child in America died from COVID. 358 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 5: Look it up. No healthy child died from COVID. 359 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 2: Not one, not a single one in the third biggest 360 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 2: country in the world. And the kids were a far 361 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,199 Speaker 2: less dangerous vector of disease than virtually anybody else, and 362 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 2: the schools remained close. Okay, don't get me started. Ah, 363 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 2: I thought that was terrific. Let's go on. 364 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 5: So if you asked me my advice as a physician, 365 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 5: if you were sixty five or older, or overweight and 366 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 5: some other conditions, I would have said, hell, yes, I'd 367 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,440 Speaker 5: take the COVID vaccine. The risks of the disease were 368 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:03,439 Speaker 5: real and much greater than the vaccine. But if you 369 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 5: ask me, should my healthy six month old get it? See, 370 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,919 Speaker 5: these are the nuances you're unwilling to talk about because 371 00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 5: there's such a belief in submission. Submit to the government. 372 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 5: Do what you're told. There is no discussion. There ought 373 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 5: to be a debate. You're not going to let him 374 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 5: have the debate because you're just going to criticize and 375 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 5: say it is this and admit to it, or we're 376 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 5: not going to appoint you. But it's more complicated than that. 377 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 5: And this is why people distrust government, because you're unwilling 378 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 5: to have these conversations. And I go home, ask your 379 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,640 Speaker 5: Democrat young mothers, your Republican young mothers if they're vaccinating 380 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 5: their kid for appetitis B, and they're like, well, do 381 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 5: I have to do it on day one? Is this 382 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 5: precious little baby? Is there science to say you shouldn't 383 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 5: do it? Probably not, But it's my kid. 384 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 2: You know. 385 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 5: It's like there isn't clear cut science saying not to aughtit. 386 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 2: The FED, Oh that's his dad. I think we cut 387 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 2: out edited out somehow. Him making the point that hepatitis 388 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 2: B is transmitted through drug use or sexual activity. You're 389 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 2: saying almost certainly not sharing needles as a heroin user 390 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:08,479 Speaker 2: or engaging in sex. If they are, you're a bad parent. Exactly. 391 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,680 Speaker 2: You've got one wild child. Yeah, I wouldn't worry about 392 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:15,160 Speaker 2: the vaccine schedules. So much, you know, and the other 393 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 2: great trend that just makes me insane, and I know 394 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 2: it does to you too, Jack Is and Rand was 395 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:25,200 Speaker 2: referring to it there. I know I can hear the 396 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 2: thinking of Fauci and company, Biden. If we're honest with 397 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:33,719 Speaker 2: people right about the vaccine or whatever, we'll get lower 398 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:38,440 Speaker 2: compliance and therefore more people will get sick and perhaps die. Therefore, 399 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 2: we are doing them a favor by lying to them 400 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 2: and grossly oversimplifying what's happening here. Sure, we're gonna tell 401 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 2: pregnant women you can't have even a tiny drop of 402 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 2: alcohol at all, science says, because if we tell them 403 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,879 Speaker 2: you can have one drink and it's healthy, it's okay, 404 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 2: they'll take it too far. We don't trust people, so 405 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,159 Speaker 2: we'll exaggerate to get them do How has that worked out? 406 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 2: It's I don't think it's worked. It's the sort of 407 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 2: lesson in human beings either never learn or they have 408 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:11,119 Speaker 2: to learn over and over again. My answer to that is, 409 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:15,160 Speaker 2: you don't get to do that. That's a judgment you 410 00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:18,919 Speaker 2: can't but you aren't allowed to make. Don't give me 411 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 2: that s Tell me the truth and let the chips fall. 412 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 2: It's it's the same sort of hubris that the sensors 413 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 2: and quota fillers and DEI folks have no trust us 414 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 2: with the power to be racist. Because we are so 415 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:37,359 Speaker 2: wise and benevolent, we will fix the problems of society 416 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 2: using this terrible tool. No, you don't get to do 417 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 2: that next clip. 418 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 5: But on autism, there's no good science of anything to 419 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:49,439 Speaker 5: show what causes autism. We don't know. It's a profound disease. 420 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 5: I know many moms here and dads who have kids 421 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,399 Speaker 5: with autis, know them personally, I've met their kids. But 422 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 5: the thing is is they saw their kids developing completely normal, 423 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 5: maybe making one hundred words go to no words at 424 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,439 Speaker 5: about fifteen months of age. Now, there isn't proof. There 425 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 5: isn't proof that the vaccines cause it. That's true. There 426 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 5: isn't proof that it calls it. But we don't know 427 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 5: what causes it yet. So should we be at least 428 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 5: open minded we take seventy two vaccines. Could it be? 429 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 5: I don't know, But we shouldn't just close the door 430 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 5: and say we're no longer because we believe so much 431 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,160 Speaker 5: in submission, we're not going to have an open mind 432 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,919 Speaker 5: to study these things. And so it's sort of this 433 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 5: crazy notion. 434 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 2: Well, every parent has dealt with that. I remember when 435 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:30,880 Speaker 2: I did, and then you just move on with your life. 436 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 2: When you start getting your kid shots there at the 437 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,679 Speaker 2: hospital and there's so much going on and everything like that, 438 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 2: it's the first week of having a baby and know 439 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 2: everything like that, you don't research the dozens and dozens 440 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 2: and dozens of inoculations your kid gets. I hope that 441 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 2: you hope that they're they're right. 442 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:49,360 Speaker 5: Settle two. 443 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 2: Is that that's the number that's floating around everywhere. That's 444 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:55,399 Speaker 2: a lot. Yeah, it absolutely is. You know the point 445 00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 2: Rand made that last screed that was a scientist talking 446 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 2: and the idea that you leap to one side or 447 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 2: the other and you're either in Eagles garb or Chief's garb, 448 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:11,159 Speaker 2: if you will, on a question that is a million 449 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 2: miles from being decided. That's a bizarre way to approach signs. 450 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 2: Keeping in defensible, Keeping in mind that you Eagles jersey wears. 451 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 2: A lot of you were wearing Chiefs jerseys pre Trump 452 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:26,640 Speaker 2: when you were anti vaccine because you were convinced vaccines 453 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 2: were causing autism. They're all liberals, Yeah, leading that charge 454 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:32,360 Speaker 2: so strange. 455 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 5: Next, clip schizophrenia. I would put in the same notion. 456 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,399 Speaker 5: You have a kid who's completely normal to eighteen or 457 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 5: nineteen and their brain goes heywire. 458 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 2: How does that happen? 459 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 5: It's the most bizarre disease. Shouldn't we be open Could 460 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 5: it be our food? Might be vaccines, It might be 461 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,919 Speaker 5: our food. But autism is more common. I don't know 462 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 5: about the schizophrenia statistics, but autisms more common. Should we 463 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,680 Speaker 5: want to be open minded? Instead, we're so close minded 464 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:01,400 Speaker 5: and we're so consensus driven that thus and says this. Well, 465 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:04,920 Speaker 5: science doesn't say anything. Science is a dispute, and ten 466 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 5: years from now we could all be wrong. 467 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:09,640 Speaker 2: There's more on that theme. 468 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 5: Twenty years ago, they did this enormous study and they 469 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,240 Speaker 5: said everybody over fifty should take an aspirin. I thought, well, 470 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,119 Speaker 5: that's a pretty good idea. It makes sense. But you 471 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:20,120 Speaker 5: know what, twenty years later they measured it and they 472 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 5: found if you had no heart disease and you were 473 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 5: taking aspen, your chance of dying from a brain bleed 474 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 5: or from a stomach bleed were greater than the risk 475 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:29,160 Speaker 5: of heart disease. You have heart disease, they still say 476 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 5: take an aspirin if you don't have changed your mind 477 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,919 Speaker 5: twenty years later. But would you have all said I 478 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 5: was crazy and I should no longer be in public 479 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 5: discourse if I had said twenty years ago, I don't 480 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,160 Speaker 5: feel like taking an asper. I ride my bike all 481 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 5: the time. I'm afraid I might hit my head. But 482 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 5: that's what country's about, what descent is about. 483 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:49,679 Speaker 2: Excellent example, right, right, Or your neighbor might tackle you 484 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:55,680 Speaker 2: over long clippings and you get a concussion. Finally, Oh again, 485 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 2: that's his dad, that's his dad, Jack. Finally this So, just. 486 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 5: As you look at the larger picture and give the 487 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,159 Speaker 5: guy break who says I just want to follow the 488 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 5: science where it leads without presupposition, I think, really what 489 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:12,160 Speaker 5: we have up here is presupposition. You've already concluded it's 490 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 5: absolute that autism isn't caused by we don't know what 491 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 5: causes autism, so we should be more humble in what 492 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 5: we say. Sorry, I didn't get to a question. 493 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,159 Speaker 2: One of the very few times that I find a 494 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 2: rant to be you know, the juice worth the squeeze. Yeah, 495 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:33,919 Speaker 2: the end of that need not be to you, whoever 496 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:37,159 Speaker 2: you are. That Therefore, our FK. Junior is a perfect 497 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 2: choice to run HHS, you know, given his conflicts of 498 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:42,639 Speaker 2: interest and stuff like that. I got some problems with 499 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 2: the guy. So there's that too. But the Randyman's absolutely correct. 500 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 2: We need to be more humble in the face of 501 00:27:52,680 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 2: scientific uncertainty. I represent science. You were wrong about f 502 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 2: thing everything you old gain of function promoting lying murderer. Yeah. Usually, 503 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 2: like I was just talking about, you know, your kid 504 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 2: gets all the jabs and you don't look into the however, 505 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 2: many dozens and dozens of different jabs with the sciences 506 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:18,879 Speaker 2: on him. You just go with it on this one 507 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 2: on COVID because it was such a giant cataclysm, the 508 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:27,639 Speaker 2: biggest non war disaster in non war non asteroid disaster 509 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 2: in world history. So we you know, we hit more 510 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 2: scrutiny around it, and it turns out, yeah, they were 511 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 2: wrong about everything they told us. Dang dang, near everything 512 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 2: was wrong, and so maybe you ought to be a 513 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 2: little more skeptical when they start laying out all these 514 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 2: guidelines and rules for whatever the hell it is before 515 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 2: we uh just accept them as fact. I represent science. 516 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 2: I mean, we had a little we had a little 517 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 2: experiment here where we we we found out they're regularly wrong. 518 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 2: Even people, some of them are not without motives. But 519 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 2: even the people without motives, they can be wrong. They 520 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 2: want to be right as much as you want to 521 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 2: be right, but they're wrong a lot. It's just just 522 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 2: the you know, the way the world works well. And 523 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 2: I would like to sentence to a six month self 524 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:21,720 Speaker 2: examination camp anybody who said the lab leak theory was racist, 525 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:25,720 Speaker 2: for instance, or that asking hard questions of the Chinese 526 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 2: government was somehow racist or might cause anti Chinese bias. 527 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 2: You people are dangerous. Yeah, I hope we've come out 528 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 2: of that period. Got a little more on that, and 529 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 2: maybe we'll get to it later. I do want to 530 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 2: talk about the new download for the Apple phone with 531 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 2: the AI in it. H some interesting stuff. My son 532 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 2: and I were doing it with yesterday, very fun I 533 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 2: don't know if it's improved my texting or not.

It gets it right, way more offen and 536 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 2: when it's guessing your word. Since that, I don't know. 537 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 2: I haven't funny. I just said less than twenty four 538 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 2: hours ago to my beloved bride. Apple's voiced text is 539 00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 2: getting worse and worse. But who knows. My high school 540 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 2: son said, Dad, literally nobody voiced text, but you literally nobody, 541 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 2: I said, I think old people do. Maybe young people 542 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 2: flying thumbs. They you know, they got the flying thumbs well. 543 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 2: Plus they're terrified of speaking, and anybody's hearing the evans too. Yeah, 544 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 2: and they're doing it in class. Would be disruptive to 545 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 2: the teacher. So you got it. Maybe that's where you 546 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 2: get your practice. We've got Katie's headlines on the way 547 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 2: weird in the football this weekend. I'd have gotten in 548 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 2: a role of watching a game every a game or 549 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 2: more every weekend and nothing this weekend Grammys Sunday night. 550 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 2: I like the Grammys. Joe hates the Grammys, but no 551 00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 2: football til next weekend. I hate the awards part of 552 00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 2: the Grammys having a bunch of interesting music that you 553 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 2: might not be aware of. I'm in favor of that. 554 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 2: The ords are stupid. Let's figure out who's reporting what 555 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 2: it's the lead story with Katie Green already starting with ABC. 556 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 6: NTSB says preliminary investigation to take thirty days. 557 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 2: Final report will take up to a year. I think 558 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:25,600 Speaker 2: they're gonna nail down the why do we have half 559 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 2: as many air traffic controllers as we're supposed to have 560 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 2: nationwide pretty quickly. I think that's going to be figured 561 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 2: out much sooner than a year. And the airline pilots 562 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 2: have been complaining about the helicopter traffic around Reagan for decades, 563 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 2: saying it's really dangerous. You need to do something about. 564 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 6: From CNN, Trump's cabinet nominees faced sharpest bipartisan grilling to date. 565 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, Tulsey Gabbard's on the ropes, especially cash Betel, flying colors, 566 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 2: RFK coin flip. 567 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 6: You say today FBI tells multiple senior leaders to resign 568 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 6: or be fired. 569 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 2: I don't know this story. Okay, well do we know why. 570 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 6: This is the DEI situation? 571 00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:15,720 Speaker 2: Oh? Okay, gotcha. 572 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 6: President Trump's administration expanding its. 573 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:23,600 Speaker 2: Purge, root and branch, as they say, you know, just 574 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 2: in general. I saw this graphy and Bremer put out 575 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 2: on his Twitter feed about Trumping going to war with 576 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 2: his own government or something like that was the headline 577 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 2: from something. You can easily divide people into two camps. 578 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 2: When you hear government employees are losing your job, you 579 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 2: think yay, or you think, oh, that's terrible because I'm 580 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 2: an immediate. Ya. When I hear government employees getting fired, 581 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:54,479 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, there could be some extrenuous factors 582 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 2: that would change it. But my first emotion the shrinking 583 00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 2: of any government agency is all right. But I know 584 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,200 Speaker 2: people who's their first thought is all that's horrible. Okay, 585 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 2: that's a quick, pretty big dividing line between kinds of people. 586 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:09,960 Speaker 2: Sit down, junior, let's talk about the deficit. 587 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 6: From Fox News, Netan, Yahoo furious about chaotic handover of 588 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 6: Israeli hostages from Hamas. 589 00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I wanted to get into that a little bit later. 590 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 2: Hamas has turned it into a we might kill you 591 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 2: or we might not.
