Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty Armstrong and
Speaker 1: Jaki and he Armstrong and Jetty.
Speaker 2: Three tough hearings, loom Tulci Gabbard for Director of National Intelligence,
Speaker 2: Cash Patil to head the FBI and RFK Junior to
Speaker 2: run HHS. Kennedy met with GOP North Dakota Senator John
Speaker 2: Hoven today. Farm State Republicans worry about Kennedy wanting to
Speaker 2: cut high fructose corn syrup from food.
Speaker 3: There is nobody who is saying that can defend high
Speaker 3: fruitos corn syrup in food. But the farmers love it
Speaker 3: because it makes the money. Or what about from a
Speaker 3: freedom standpoint?
Speaker 4: People get to company get to put it in their
Speaker 4: food if it's cheaper, and you get to decide you
Speaker 4: don't want to eat stuff that's got high.
Speaker 1: Fruit torst cornsrup in it.
Speaker 4: How about that? Anch I have no problem with that.
Speaker 4: I don't I go back and forth on that one.
Speaker 4: I mean, ultimately I land on the freedom side of it,
Speaker 4: But I wish a lot of this stuff didn't exist.
Speaker 1: Yeah, just there's no benefit to us to have that around.
Speaker 1: Just get the hell rid of it.
Speaker 4: But that's one of the knots on o RFK Junior,
Speaker 4: even if you agree with some of the stuff, is
Speaker 4: he wants big government to decide what should and shouldn't
Speaker 4: be in food, and they have made many mistakes over
Speaker 4: the years. As we've talked about before, big government told
Speaker 4: us margin was better than butter. Turns out margarine, which
Speaker 4: is just a tub of transpat is the single worst
Speaker 4: thing you could possibly give your body, But we did
Speaker 4: it for our entire childhoods because the government told us
Speaker 4: it was best.
Speaker 1: That's why you don't want the government in charge of
Speaker 1: that sort of thing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the government is more prone to being perverted by
Speaker 3: bribery or various other pressures than normal human beings. Not
Speaker 3: less more, the RFK Junior hearing has begun, and we're
Speaker 3: gonna when the questioning starts, especially where we'll bring in
Speaker 3: some highlights.
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna get exciting right off the bat.
Speaker 4: Democrats, I'm guessing particularly, are going to try to tab
Speaker 4: him as anti VAX, which is interesting given the fact
Speaker 4: that that was the Democrat lane. My whole life was
Speaker 4: being anti vax, but it flipped during COVID because of.
Speaker 1: Trump and all kinds of different reasons. First, this so tan,
Speaker 1: so freaking tan.
Speaker 4: He looks like my dad's saddle that I've got sitting
Speaker 4: in the corner of my bedroom. Trump looks like an albino. Right,
Speaker 4: makes Trump look like your goff. Nineteen year old daughter
Speaker 4: lists in the basement. What is Kennedy's thing forgetting tan?
Speaker 4: Is he a tanning bed guy? Does he lay out
Speaker 4: in the sun? Do we know that is extraordinarily tanned?
Speaker 4: It's like it's like he thought this week, Oh I
Speaker 4: got my hearing coming up, I better get.
Speaker 1: Good in tan.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Oh he's He's definitely a fake bake guy, one
Speaker 3: hundred percent.
Speaker 4: You think, is there any chance he's shirtless by the
Speaker 4: end of the hearing because he likes to be. He
Speaker 4: likes to go to those outdoor gyms where there's cameras
Speaker 4: around and lift weights and jeans and work boots.
Speaker 1: He is a very fit dude, no doubt. Sure.
Speaker 4: Mark Halpern wrote an interesting paragraph today about how this
Speaker 4: whole thing is going to go down.
Speaker 1: Should I do that first?
Speaker 4: Or maybe I'll do that first, and then we'll get
Speaker 4: to his uh, his cousin Caroline Kennedy's blast and all
Speaker 4: that sort of stuff, which is all is what it is.
Speaker 4: So uh Mark Alpern in his newsletter today, what to
Speaker 4: watch for how the chairman UH today and tomorrow the
Speaker 4: chair different chairman today and different chairman tomorrow conduct the
Speaker 4: hearings as compared to the pro hegzeth manner in which the.
Speaker 1: Uh UH chair ran the hegzef thing.
Speaker 4: You know, because some of the Republicans, a lot of
Speaker 4: the Republicans are anti RFK Junior, So the chair could
Speaker 4: you know, doesn't necessarily have to be all in for
Speaker 4: trying to get him nominated.
Speaker 1: So that's unknown.
Speaker 4: How much Team MAGA mobilizes in favor See for their
Speaker 4: comparison of how efforts crushed the opposition to Hegzeth. So
Speaker 4: is MAGA gonna get all in on you better not
Speaker 4: cross us or not? That's unknown if Trump's really bought
Speaker 4: in in this, how the nominee does testifying his own
Speaker 4: behalf if the MAHA make America healthy again. Grassroots explodes
Speaker 4: with outrage at those threatening to vote no. Whether RFK
Speaker 4: Junior can draw any Democratic support. You'd think he could
Speaker 4: because he's for a lot of the things. I mean,
Speaker 4: he's a pro choice guy. He's a lot of the
Speaker 4: things that Democrats want in HHS. Whether the hearing process
Speaker 4: and news coverage define him as a vaccine skeptic wackadoodle
Speaker 4: or as an historic champion for the health of our children,
Speaker 4: Whether Trump goes all in on the wavering ours and
Speaker 4: puts pressure on them, we don't know that or not.
Speaker 4: But Mark Calprin says seventy seven percent chance of confirmation.
Speaker 4: So that's pretty odd. Wow, Wow, that is I'm surprised.
Speaker 4: I internally I had the number lower.
Speaker 3: You know, we had a discussion about this before the show,
Speaker 3: and I thought you said something really interesting, which is
Speaker 3: a big factor with RFK, because I threw a couple
Speaker 3: of quotes that Jack things he said in recent years.
Speaker 3: I mean, like in twenty twenty three, which pretty recently
Speaker 3: he said there's no vaccine that is safe and effective,
Speaker 3: which is really well, it's dumb, it's wrong.
Speaker 4: But you reply, he's a bomb chucker and always has been,
Speaker 4: and it's a good way to get attention. And sometimes
Speaker 4: you have to pay a price for your bomb chucking.
Speaker 4: You have to you have to explain them away. People
Speaker 4: who do the bomb chucking thing, we do that and
Speaker 4: talk greater. You do it all the time, but there's
Speaker 4: not a lot of nuance to bomb chucking. It's exciting,
Speaker 4: it gets attention, but a lot of times you don't
Speaker 4: mean it one hundred percent.
Speaker 3: It's just direct every word I say, every single word
Speaker 3: without exception.
Speaker 4: It's directionally right. But there are caveats, and I think
Speaker 4: he's gonna have to get into that today. He's gonna
Speaker 4: have to explain it. I know I didn't mean every vaccine.
Speaker 4: There's never been a safe vaccine that that would be ridiculous.
Speaker 4: I don't know if you'll say that or not.
Speaker 3: But yeah, I'm so conflicted about RFK because I think
Speaker 3: he's right on a lot of things that are really important.
Speaker 3: I also think he's a phony in a greed head, honestly. Uh,
Speaker 3: But there are times I get that sort of bomb chucking.
Speaker 3: It reminds me of what the Trump administration is doing
Speaker 3: right now when they temp temporarily suspended the grants and
Speaker 3: loans and stuff, and then temporarily suspended all four an ad.
Speaker 3: It's a zero sum budgeting where you say, all right,
Speaker 3: let's let's pretend that well, let's let's declare we don't
Speaker 3: need to spend a dollar on this stuff now. Let's
Speaker 3: talk about how much we really want to spend. Let's
Speaker 3: not just blindly go from year to year. Because we
Speaker 3: spent X last year, we're gonna spend X this year.
Speaker 3: And I think at times a guy like RFK, what
Speaker 3: he's doing is saying there are no vaccines that are
Speaker 3: safe and effective, and you're like, well, whoa, whoa, whoa,
Speaker 3: Yeah there are. Let's start with this vaccine, and then
Speaker 3: you have a discussion about how safe and effective that
Speaker 3: vaccine is, and then you go to the next one.
Speaker 3: It's like zero some budgeting. I don't think it's necessarily useless.
Speaker 3: On the other hand, I also think some of his
Speaker 3: methods are are highly questionable, but they would take a
Speaker 3: long time to describe. It has to do with how
Speaker 3: friendly is with trial lawyers, who makes zillions of dollars
Speaker 3: on class action lawsuits that.
Speaker 1: I believe are one of the forces ruining America.
Speaker 4: Well, i'll tell you what I'm hoping they get to
Speaker 4: the bottom of in the hearing today. But first let's
Speaker 4: hear from Caroline Kennedy before we get too far away
Speaker 4: from that. She is, yeah, she's a Kennedy, And I
Speaker 4: kind of load the Kennedy's actually you know, they get
Speaker 4: worse as you get further away from John FK. The
Speaker 4: Kennedy down the line living off the name Kennedy. Kennedy's
Speaker 4: are so annoying as you get further along.
Speaker 3: Well, right, And you know how I'm always saying, I'm
Speaker 3: as interested in an orthodontist's opinion on an issue than
Speaker 3: I am as an actress or whatever. Why would I
Speaker 3: pay attention to that line of work over another. I'm
Speaker 3: as likely to listen to the Smiths and the Johnson's
Speaker 3: and the Schwartzes as the Kennedy's.
Speaker 1: What the hell is Kennedy worths anything more than anybody else?
Speaker 1: So what is she a cousin? Anyway?
Speaker 3: She wrote a letter FK's daughter for God's sake, Oh
Speaker 3: cousin or Bobby?
Speaker 1: Right? Yeah, yeah, This is what she said about RFK
Speaker 1: Junior yesterday. I've known Bobby my whole life. We grew
Speaker 1: up together.
Speaker 5: It's no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets,
Speaker 5: because Bobby himself is a predator. He's always been charismatic,
Speaker 5: able to attract others through the strength of his personality,
Speaker 5: his willingness to take risks and break the rules. I
Speaker 5: watched his younger brothers and cousins follow him down the
Speaker 5: path of drug addiction. Base, his garage his dorm room
Speaker 5: were always the center of the action where drugs were available,
Speaker 5: and he enjoyed showing off how he put baby chickens
Speaker 5: and mice in a blender to feed to his hawks,
Speaker 5: whoa It was often a perverse scene of despair and violence.
Speaker 1: What did she say he was putting in the blender?
Speaker 1: Kittens and what chickens and mice? Oh?
Speaker 4: No, kittens, chickens and mice. Chickens in the blender downstairs
Speaker 4: high blending up chickens and mice.
Speaker 1: The Kennedy's catalot chickens in the basement.
Speaker 3: She also went on at Lenked about how he's unqualified,
Speaker 3: he's addicted to intention, he's a hypocrite. He vaccinated his
Speaker 3: own kids with the full slate, even as he was
Speaker 3: saying they were dangerous, and I don't know.
Speaker 4: Well, let's hear that, because that's an interesting angle, that one.
Speaker 4: It's twenty three.
Speaker 5: Bobby is addicted to attention and power. Bobby prays on
Speaker 5: the desperation of parents of sick children, vaccinating his own
Speaker 5: kids while building a following hypocritically discouraging other parents from
Speaker 5: vaccinating theirs even before he fills this job, his constant
Speaker 5: denigration of our healthcare system, and the conspiratorial half truths
Speaker 5: he's told about vaccines, including in connection with Samoa's deadly
Speaker 5: twenty nineteen outbreak of measles.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I calls live. I can't even as interesting
Speaker 1: as some of that is and should be looked into.
Speaker 4: I can't get past the video I saw yesterday of
Speaker 4: her not that long ago, standing with the Bidens and
Speaker 4: talking about how Joe Biden is ready to go for
Speaker 4: another four years.
Speaker 1: And fitting ready in his sharpens. So she's completely full
Speaker 1: of crap, completely full of crap whenever it's something she wants.
Speaker 3: So whatever, who's with me, depart all Kennedy back to
Speaker 3: Ireland or whoever will take him, all of them. And
Speaker 3: if you're Kennedy totally unrelated, you got to change your
Speaker 3: name to O Hurlahan or something else.
Speaker 1: Irish.
Speaker 4: My favorite Kennedy story this is Kennedy og Joe Kennedy,
Speaker 4: the original dad of JFK and RFK seniors, him on
Speaker 4: his knees with his pants down in front of FDR
Speaker 4: because FDR told him to and FDR just did it
Speaker 4: a show of how Joe Kennedy will do anything I
Speaker 4: tell him to do.
Speaker 3: Wow, I love that story. Coming up, we were way
Speaker 3: too easy on Selena Gomez. I will explain her wackydoodle
Speaker 3: oscar Bait movie. But first ord from our friends at
Speaker 3: Prize Picks. The Big Game is almost here and it's
Speaker 3: now or never. Don't miss out on the last football

Speaker 3: Whether you win or lose doesn't matter. Prize picks.
Speaker 1: Run your game, remember that code Armstrong.
Speaker 4: The thing I'd like them to nail down in the
Speaker 4: hearing today, and I think a lot of these people
Speaker 4: are going to come loaded with stats to argue with
Speaker 4: RFK Junior is his claim that American children are the
Speaker 4: six children in the world.
Speaker 1: What does he mean by that? And is that true
Speaker 1: or not? Because I actually don't know.
Speaker 4: Do we have more autism, anxiety, depression, obesity than other countries?
Speaker 1: And if we do, we ought to spend a lot
Speaker 1: of time talking about that.
Speaker 3: And if that's true, all the more reason to be
Speaker 3: very very careful who we put in charge of HHS.
Speaker 1: But yeah, much to be discussed.
Speaker 4: We've had people, we've had, we've had people in charge
Speaker 4: who didn't bring up the topic hardly at all, it
Speaker 4: would seem to me, right, So yeah, more on the way,
Speaker 4: stay here at.
Speaker 1: The Biden administration spent fifteen million dollars to hand.
Speaker 3: Out contraceptives and condoms in Afghanistan.
Speaker 1: This after failing to convince the goats to go on
Speaker 1: the pill. Wow, goat blankers. Wow, that's what I believe.
Speaker 4: That's what suggesting that was the inference I took from it. Jack,
Speaker 4: Oh my god, So have you been following this. I'm
Speaker 4: I'm glad I've caught onto this or that. I hope
Speaker 4: enough people have caught on to what. I'm afraid it's
Speaker 4: not true. So we have talked about there's a name
Speaker 4: for it.
Speaker 1: What is the name for it?
Speaker 4: This trick I can't remember, but it's from the lefty playbook.
Speaker 4: We've been using the example of your Republican legislature in
Speaker 4: some state bans porn in the school libraries. Then the
Speaker 4: activist librarian takes out Romeo and Juliet because it's got
Speaker 4: sex scene in it and blames the porn band, and
Speaker 4: then the media goes crazy about how they've banned Romeo
Speaker 4: and Juliet.
Speaker 1: Right, because the media eats it up.
Speaker 4: And willfully miss interpreting, and people are pointing out this
Speaker 4: and it's not hasn't caught on as much yet, because.
Speaker 1: I'm hoping enough people have caught into the playbook.
Speaker 4: I think it's going to catch fire, though, so ending
Speaker 4: DEI in the military, you got I forget where it was.
Speaker 4: But somebody, some deep state or in the military removed
Speaker 4: any teaching in military schools about the Tuskegee Airmen, you know,
Speaker 4: the black airmen during World War Two, and said they're
Speaker 4: not allowed to teach it because of the DEI uh
Speaker 4: stuff that Trump bent. It doesn't have there's nothing to
Speaker 4: do that that's made up, and then you know, hoping
Speaker 4: the media will jump on it. They no longer teach
Speaker 4: black history. They're hiding from people now, the fact that
Speaker 4: we once had black pilots during.
Speaker 3: World War Two, Right, trying the Rohn Decantis maneuver again,
Speaker 3: that don't say gay bill, the don't teach about the
Speaker 3: Tuskegee Airmen bill, even though that's completely different.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so it's good. I hope that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I hope everybody doesn't fall for it the same way.
Speaker 4: An interesting chart came across yesterday. Apparently young people aren't
Speaker 4: digging living with their parents as much as they thought
Speaker 4: they would, or as much as kids used to or something.
Speaker 4: But Finally it's trending the correct direction in terms of
Speaker 4: young people still staying at home.
Speaker 1: This is twenty five to thirty four year olds. As
Speaker 1: Joe and I are each in our mid eighties.
Speaker 4: But we're always talking about how when we were younger,
Speaker 4: when we are twenty five, if you hadn't come across
Speaker 4: another twenty five year old that still lived with his parents,
Speaker 4: it would have been extraordinary.
Speaker 3: I mean, you'd have told everybody you know because it
Speaker 3: was so rare and odd. And then it became relatively common.
Speaker 3: For instance, eighteen percent at the peak in twenty eighteen,
Speaker 3: and it had been climbing year by year from the
Speaker 3: nineties to that eighteen percent.
Speaker 4: Wow, that's pretty high. But it started dropping back down again.
Speaker 4: They for the first time since the eighties. It is
Speaker 4: trending downward for whatever reason, and I don't know what
Speaker 4: that reason is. No, there's some belief that that's why
Speaker 4: rents have gotten high. There's more demand because there's more
Speaker 4: people that decided I need to get out of here.
Speaker 4: But I don't know why the current crop of twenty
Speaker 4: seven year olds are saying I can't live with my
Speaker 4: parents versus the crop of twenty seven year olds from
Speaker 4: ten years ago.
Speaker 1: They thought this is perfectly cool with me.
Speaker 3: I realize this isn't a very scholarly sounding explanation, but
Speaker 3: living at home with your parents at the age of
Speaker 3: twenty five is a bad idea.
Speaker 1: It's bad for them, it's bad for you. It's just bad.
Speaker 3: Could it be that as a society we've accumulatively discovered
Speaker 3: it's bad?
Speaker 4: Wow, and it's in the air. It's also funny that
Speaker 4: I only looked at it from one end. Maybe parents
Speaker 4: have changed as much deciding I don't want you living
Speaker 4: at my house. I got all kinds of plans. I mean,
Speaker 4: I liked raising you, but I'm done now and I'm
Speaker 4: ready to move on to the next stage of my life.
Speaker 4: Sure tough love and or a reasonable setting of boundaries.
Speaker 4: Yeah you have any guess why it's turning down now?
Speaker 4: Text line four one nine five KFTC.
Speaker 3: Speaking of young people with problems, Selena Gomez blubbering online.
Speaker 3: A bit was made of that back and forth, the
Speaker 3: story behind the story and the story behind.
Speaker 1: That Coming up next, Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 3: So many controversies RFK Junior, Telsea Gabbart, that's another can
Speaker 3: of worms, arguing about immigration crime, blah blah.
Speaker 1: This segment something we can all just enjoy.
Speaker 3: Kicking the hell out of Hollywood. Okay, Oh, and what
Speaker 3: a kicking it's going to be. I've been so excited
Speaker 3: about this since yesterday when it all came together. First
Speaker 3: of all, starlet and struggling with mental illness, young actress
Speaker 3: Selena Gomez from the internets.
Speaker 7: Just sort of say that too story sorry only people
Speaker 7: forgetting detect the children. I don't understand. I'm so sorry.
Speaker 7: I wish she could do something that it can't. I
Speaker 7: don't know what to do.
Speaker 1: I'll try and be there.
Speaker 3: As America's immigrant community was crying out for Selena Gomez
Speaker 3: to do something or not or look, she's the young
Speaker 3: gal struggles with mental illness.
Speaker 1: That's fine. We were very easy, very fatherly with her yesterday.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, she went with the no makeup look, which is
Speaker 4: very popular in those videos. You do the no makeup
Speaker 4: thing for some reason that lends it credibility or something,
Speaker 4: because you've got to be vulnerable and compassionate. As we
Speaker 4: were discussing yesterday, those are the two things that get
Speaker 4: you a lot of social approval, especially as a woman.
Speaker 3: And if you look beautiful and glam You're not as
Speaker 3: vulnerable anyway. Tom Holman, who's heading up Ice these days,
Speaker 3: had a reply, we.
Speaker 8: Got quarterman Americans dead and fandolf across at Olten border.
Speaker 8: Where's the tears for them? I've met with hundreds of angels,
Speaker 8: moms and dads who are separate at their children because
Speaker 8: they buried them because they're Kibo alien. We got half
Speaker 8: a man, children or sex trafficked into this country but
Speaker 8: separated from their family's put in the hands or criminal
Speaker 8: cartels to be spoken in the country. This administration can't
Speaker 8: find worth three hundred thousand. Where's the tears for them?
Speaker 3: Okay, we're gonna get back to Selena Gomez and her
Speaker 3: horrific new movie and why she might be blubbering about
Speaker 3: immigration online in a moment wow. After first this Hollywood
Speaker 3: reeling after Kamala's loss quote, biggest stars in the world
Speaker 3: are losing their relevance and the industry is realizing it
Speaker 3: won't be able to repeat its Trump resistance playbook. According
Speaker 3: to a couple of big time Hollywood insiders quoted on
Speaker 3: the condition of anonymity.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't want to derail this at all, but
Speaker 4: we've We're talking a lot about tipping points on various things,
Speaker 4: like where we all agree.
Speaker 1: Criminal legal shouldn't be here. Oh, we're all an agreement.
Speaker 1: Why were we scared to say so?
Speaker 4: Okay, let's say so, and now it's just okay, and
Speaker 4: a couple other issues on like that trains to a
Speaker 4: certain extent, the Hollywood thing too. I think like the
Speaker 4: countries just decided, you know what, I don't care what
Speaker 4: Bruce Springsteen says. You know I don't either, and now
Speaker 4: and that seems silly that anybody ever did.
Speaker 3: A prominent Hollywood talent manager believes Kamala Harris lost to
Speaker 3: President Trump in November shows that Hollywood no longer drives
Speaker 3: the culture as it once did well since the plethora
Speaker 3: of celebrities endorsed Harris failed to alter the outcome of
Speaker 3: the election. Hollywood doesn't matter as much as it thinks
Speaker 3: it's matter. I've screwed up the key line. Hollywood doesn't
Speaker 3: matter as much as it thinks it matters. The unnamed
Speaker 3: talent manager with a list clients told Vulture pop culture website.
Speaker 1: Also a fantastic among the scavenger. I believe technically you're right.
Speaker 1: That's a different thing well bright parts. Reported. Among the
Speaker 1: stars to publicly back Harris were Taylor.
Speaker 3: Swift, Beyonce, George Clooney, Oprah Winfrey, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ben Stiller,
Speaker 3: Harrison Ford, Jennifer Lopez, and Julia Roberts and Moore Tonight
Speaker 3: on the Night.
Speaker 1: Of a Thousand stars who are completely relevant? Why would
Speaker 1: were they ever relevant?
Speaker 3: And they go into some specifics of Disney pulling an
Speaker 3: anti Trump theme from their new Marvel superhero movie Captain
Speaker 3: America Brave New World, the star of which, by the way,
Speaker 3: is an America hater.
Speaker 1: Aw more on that another time.
Speaker 3: Anyway, He's this very powerful general, it becomes kind of
Speaker 3: a fascist and turns into a raging red Helk Hulk
Speaker 3: that was seen as an illusion to Trump.
Speaker 1: A source told, so they've soft pedaled it. Anyway.
Speaker 3: Let's get back to little Selena Gomez and her blubbering
Speaker 3: over immigration.
Speaker 4: So Joe loves beating up on Disney princesses. That's his
Speaker 4: favorite thing.
Speaker 3: Oh oh please, it's if I got a chance between
Speaker 3: playing pebble Beach and beaten up a Disney princess. Please
Speaker 3: put the clubs away. Let's get to the beaten anyway,
Speaker 3: uh so Giancarlo Sopo on in the National Review right
Speaker 3: Selena Gomez crocodile tears were not for migrants. She just
Speaker 3: tried pulling off what she could not deliver in her
Speaker 3: latest box office flop, a convincing performance. In a now
Speaker 3: deleted Instagram video, the entertainer sobbed over deportations. Blah blah blah.
Speaker 3: I wish I could do something, she whimpered, tears straining
Speaker 3: down her face. The problem with these theatrics is they're
Speaker 3: glaring inconsistency. And then he makes a couple of points
Speaker 3: about where are the sobbing displays when Barack Obama's immigration
Speaker 3: policies earned him the moniker to porter in chief? Where
Speaker 3: was her anguish when joe By Biden's border fiasco left
Speaker 3: thousands of migrants children at the mercy of cartel violence
Speaker 3: and human traffickers.
Speaker 4: For her, specifically on the Barack Obama thing, I think
Speaker 4: she'd have been like nine years old or something.
Speaker 1: But that's a fair defense.
Speaker 3: Gomez claimed that Trump is targeting her people doesn't even
Speaker 3: make sense. Mexican nationals have been a minority of illegal
Speaker 3: border crossing since twenty seventeen, and she was born in Texas,
Speaker 3: and if she were concerned about attacks against her people,
Speaker 3: she'd be crying over the murder of Joscelyn Nungar, a
Speaker 3: twelve year old Houston girl who was sexually assaulted and
Speaker 3: killed by illegal immigrants from Venezuela. But that is Those
Speaker 3: are good solid arguments. But if you're talking about an
Speaker 3: always at risk of cracking up, mentally troubled Hollywood starlet,
Speaker 3: it's not about logic anyway.
Speaker 1: But this is the part I found really interesting.
Speaker 3: Her teams, her tears, he writes, seem less like heartfelt concern,
Speaker 3: more like calculated form of damage control. After her latest film,
Speaker 3: Cartel Cabaret Amelia Perez, crashed and burns spectacularly in Mexico
Speaker 3: last weekend credit where it's due Gomez, the ever savvy
Speaker 3: self marketer, knows exactly how to spin a debacle to
Speaker 3: a cause celeb It bombed so badly in Mexico, the
Speaker 3: new movie about a sex changing cartel boss who becomes
Speaker 3: a crusader for feminist rights, if you can believe that.
Speaker 4: But this is the movie that's up for all the oscars. Yes,
Speaker 4: but that didn't like it in Mexico.
Speaker 3: Oh oh, they laughed at it during the dramatic scenes.
Speaker 3: It made something like seventy four thousand dollars. It's lost
Speaker 3: all sorts of money. It's been blasted by all the critics,
Speaker 3: all the popular the like the people's polls in Mexico.
Speaker 3: Her Spanish is being mocked constantly because you're not a
Speaker 3: native Spanish speaker.
Speaker 2: I know.
Speaker 1: And the Mexican people hate this movie. They just couldn't
Speaker 1: hate it more.
Speaker 4: And it's nominated for more Oscars than any other movie,
Speaker 4: which bringing nice life exactly, which brings me my favorite
Speaker 4: part Amelia Perez and the Curse of Oscar bait by
Speaker 4: River Page. And I hadn't known a lot of this
Speaker 4: stuff because Hollywood isn't talking about it, and nobody's seen
Speaker 4: this gd movie, so there's nobody to tell you about it.
Speaker 4: First off, I was predicting last week that the Oscar
Speaker 4: ceremony might be so bad. I watch it in that
Speaker 4: they just fawn all over themselves about how great they
Speaker 4: are for nominating this trans.
Speaker 1: Movie and giving an awards. I mean, it'll be a
Speaker 1: night of a revulsion for me.
Speaker 3: This may be the Oscar baitiist movie of all time.
Speaker 3: River writes. The last week they nominated. They hit Emelia
Speaker 3: Perez with thirteen total Oscar nominations, a French produced Spanish
Speaker 3: language musical about a transgender Mexican drug lord and her
Speaker 3: underappreciated girl boss defense attorney. The film has already lost
Speaker 3: tens of millions of dollars. It's what people call well
Speaker 3: Oscar baits sort of film that's made seemingly for the
Speaker 3: express purpose purchase, I'm sorry, purpose of catching the attention
Speaker 3: of the members of the Academy.
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah.
Speaker 3: Then he goes through the list of some of the
Speaker 3: Best Picture winners. Think of twenty sixteen's Moonlight, a tragedy
Speaker 3: about a poor gay drug dealer that grows sixty five million.
Speaker 3: It beat La La Land, which grows five hundred and
Speaker 3: nine million. Or think of No Mad Land, which won
Speaker 3: Best Picture in twenty twenty, follows a homeless widow travels
Speaker 3: the country in a van after losing your job in
Speaker 3: the Great Recession. I didn't remember the titles of those movies,
Speaker 3: much less what they were about. The taste of the
Speaker 3: Academy are so predictable that they've been delightfully parodied, most succictly,
Speaker 3: perhaps in an episode of American Dad, the cartoon in
Speaker 3: which Roger the Alien takes on the supervillain persona and
Speaker 3: produces a film called Oscar Gold about an intellectually disabled
Speaker 3: Jewish alcoholic whose puppy dies of cancer while he's hiding
Speaker 3: in an attic during the Holocaust.
Speaker 1: The intended to make viewers cry themselves to death.
Speaker 4: And your best would be if you gained forty pounds
Speaker 4: for the role, yeah, or lost it or lost it exactly.
Speaker 1: It just can't be your normal weight. That's the one.
Speaker 3: Late Night with Seth Myers did a similar parody in
Speaker 3: twenty seventeen, producing a trailer for a fictional film simply
Speaker 3: called Oscar Bait, featuring quote racial tension, latent homosexuality, the
Speaker 3: French language, and dialogue that feels sort of profound. All right,
Speaker 3: So anyway, this Amelia Perez wasn't good enough trans representation
Speaker 3: for the professional schools or blah blah blah. They also
Speaker 3: I'm sorry he gets off on a tangent there.
Speaker 1: That's silly.
Speaker 2: So this.
Speaker 3: Musical about a cartel boss who decides to transition to
Speaker 3: a woman.
Speaker 1: And has a girl boss defense lawyer that helps him
Speaker 1: become a sayr for women's rights.
Speaker 3: I mean, if that's not oscar bait, what is god
Speaker 3: it's that would be hard to watch it, but you
Speaker 3: add in it to musical, it's also an big musical
Speaker 3: Jack Clip eleven.
Speaker 1: Michael, that was very.
Speaker 9: Nice to meet you.
Speaker 1: I'd like to know about sex change of ratio.
Speaker 9: See I see, I see no to women a woman,
Speaker 9: two men men two women from penis too vagianta.
Speaker 1: Yes for you?
Speaker 6: For me?
Speaker 1: What would you like to know about it?
Speaker 8: Man?
Speaker 1: I want to know it all. What is the protocol
Speaker 1: that techniques under risks? How many operations?
Speaker 3: How much do you need?
Speaker 9: Mammo blastic yes, especial blessing yes, Preen no blessing yes,
Speaker 9: lavinod blasty yes, Marmo brassy especially no blast, Pino Blassis deserving.
Speaker 3: As first of apparently impossible.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't believe that's real.
Speaker 4: And it sounds like when we do our bit where
Speaker 4: we're like singing things and making up words on the spot.
Speaker 4: I mean, it sounds like I'm gonna go get coffee now, Michael.
Speaker 4: How much time do I have?
Speaker 1: Do I have time to stop by the bathroomball so
Speaker 1: or should I just get coffee? I mean, it sounds
Speaker 1: like they're just making it up to half a song.
Speaker 7: I know.
Speaker 3: So Amelia Perez, which currently has a twenty four percent
Speaker 3: on the popcorn meter on Rotten Tomatoes.
Speaker 1: Not even Mexicans like it.
Speaker 3: When the film hit theater south of the border, there
Speaker 3: were so many refront requests a government consumer protection agency
Speaker 3: had to become involved.
Speaker 4: God, those people are so pretentious. So those Oscar, the Academy,
Speaker 4: whoever they are, the people that vote. They feel so
Speaker 4: good about themselves nominating a trans movie. Oh aren't we fantastic?
Speaker 4: See trans is hot right now? So we nominated a
Speaker 4: trans movie, and trust I'll take it in the face
Speaker 4: of Trump, right, yeah, exactly, Oh my god.
Speaker 1: So in very much the same way Joe Biden is.
Speaker 1: This is the best version. He's sharp as hell, he's
Speaker 1: ready to go. You can't keep up with them behind
Speaker 1: the scenes.
Speaker 3: How that broke the mainstream media and to a large extent, Hollywood.
Speaker 3: I think this is going to finish the job. It
Speaker 3: is so nakedly, stupidly Oscar bait and such a terrible movie.
Speaker 3: I hope been nominated for thirteen Oscar nominations.
Speaker 1: This is the end. Yeah, and I wonder if it wins.
Speaker 4: A bunch of them and I hope that the Hollywood
Speaker 4: crowd hasn't caught onto this and they do their usual
Speaker 4: thing where they go up there when they win their
Speaker 4: awards and they just talk about how fantamic I would
Speaker 4: like to dedicate this to the brave trans community. And
Speaker 4: I mean, just really go over the top with it.
Speaker 4: Do it all, Do it, Hollywood, I dare you.
Speaker 1: Oh, I can't wait.
Speaker 4: The only thing that will save them is that nobody's
Speaker 4: gonna watch. I mean, the ratings are so low for
Speaker 4: the Oscars at this point. It's not like ten years
Speaker 4: ago where fifty million people would do.
Speaker 1: Now they need Will Smith to come back and slap somebody. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the rematch.
Speaker 3: Oh, here's the deal though, much like Senile Biden didn't
Speaker 3: require you to be a news junkie to get the
Speaker 3: the uh you know, the overall dynamics of the thing,
Speaker 3: the mockery, which is going to follow a movie which
Speaker 3: nobody sees, those who see it don't like it, tanked
Speaker 3: in Mexico, the object of ridicule winning all those Oscars,
Speaker 3: this is it. This is the Cootie Gras, the death
Speaker 3: knell for Hollywood, and I celebrate it.
Speaker 1: We're going to take a break now we're out of time.
Speaker 4: You could text us four one five KFTC read the clock,
Speaker 4: Read the clock. Speaking of ratings, we were just talking
Speaker 4: about how the Oscar ratings think what they used to be.
Speaker 4: It used to be the second most watch show in
Speaker 4: America by a lot, behind only the super Bowl, and
Speaker 4: now it's dropped off and it's just another show.
Speaker 1: But the super Bowl is still a really big deal
Speaker 1: to that.
Speaker 4: Chiefs Bills on Sunday had almost fifty eight million viewers.
Speaker 1: Wow, is a big number.
Speaker 4: And I just thought it was interesting because I was
Speaker 4: talking yesterday about as a Chiefs fan, I realized how
Speaker 4: hated the Chiefs are now.
Speaker 1: But that's always the case with the dynasties.
Speaker 4: People claim they hate the same old team all the time,
Speaker 4: but way more people watch when it's.
Speaker 1: The same old team or teams.
Speaker 4: When it is the Chiefs, the Lakers, of Patriots, the Bulls,
Speaker 4: the whoever, way more people watch then, So I want
Speaker 4: so many different I'm sick of this and then you
Speaker 4: get you know, Colts Chargers and a tenth as many
Speaker 4: people tune in.
Speaker 1: S's just a fact as a TV show.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there are a hundred examples of it in pop
Speaker 3: culture it's it's a game of stars. James Bond movies
Speaker 3: get made over and over again. Different dude, differ, diferent characteristics,
Speaker 3: different adventures, some commonality.
Speaker 1: But it's the brand.
Speaker 3: It's a big name, it's a big villain. You don't
Speaker 3: have unknown superheroes fighting against unknown villains these days. It'd
Speaker 3: probably be more interesting if you did. But the chiefs
Speaker 3: are brand there. They're the you know, the big villain
Speaker 3: that's Luthor.
Speaker 4: That's a huge number for an AFC Championship game, and
Speaker 4: especially in the modern world where's so many other things
Speaker 4: to watch. Want to get this on. They think they've
Speaker 4: answered the drone question. Remember that drones over New Jersey?
Speaker 1: What was going on?
Speaker 4: Carolyn Levitt, who's Trump's press secretary, you'll get to know
Speaker 4: her name.
Speaker 1: She did her first thing yesterday and this is what
Speaker 1: she said.
Speaker 10: And before I turned to questions, I do have news
Speaker 10: directly from the President of the United States that was
Speaker 10: just shared with me in the Oval Office from President
Speaker 10: Trump directly an update on the New Jersey drones. After
Speaker 10: research and study, the drones that were flying over New
Speaker 10: Jersey and large numbers were authorized to be flown by
Speaker 10: the FAA for research and various other reasons. Many of
Speaker 10: these drones were also hobbyists, recreational and private individuals that
Speaker 10: enjoy flying jones in meantime, in time, it got worse
Speaker 10: due to curiosity.
Speaker 1: This was not the enemy shaha. The people of New
Speaker 1: Jersey feeling about this.
Speaker 6: After more than two months of frustration and concern during
Speaker 6: the Biden administration, several residents in New Jersey tell Fox
Speaker 6: News tonight that they're grateful to President Donald Trump for
Speaker 6: following through on his promise and explaining, at least to
Speaker 6: some extent, what was going on with the mysterious drones
Speaker 6: over New Jersey for the past two months.
Speaker 4: So the FAA had authorized some research drones, why didn't
Speaker 4: we get told that right off the bat?
Speaker 1: As he might know, I.
Speaker 3: Would just guess the hugeness and unresponsiveness of bureaucracies.
Speaker 1: Well that's pretty weak.
Speaker 4: Remember when the governor of New Jersey said, it's our
Speaker 4: highest priority as the governor of his state, your highes
Speaker 4: priorities to figure out what the drunes were. And you
Speaker 4: couldn't get a call back saying, oh, yeah, it's some
Speaker 4: research stuff. Well yeah, we all know all about it.
Speaker 4: Why what plus a handful of hobbyists. It's fine, don't
Speaker 4: worry about it. Still find it disturbing on some level,
Speaker 4: and not because I think the drones or space aliens
Speaker 4: or anything, just the just the messiness of bureaucracy and
Speaker 4: answering questions, and part of it just what.
Speaker 1: RFK Junior already said, some interesting things. We'll have that
Speaker 1: for you in an hour three Armstrong and Getty
