00:00:01,840 --> 00:00:05,640
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio of the

2
00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:10,480
Speaker 1: George Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty arm.

Speaker 2: Strong and Getty and he Armstrong and Getty.

4
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:28,520
Speaker 3: Thank you to those so often forgotten by the politics

5
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 3: of our city who made this movement their own. I

6
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 3: speak of Yemeny bodega owners.

7
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 2: And Mexican upwellas.

8
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 3: Senegalese taxi drivers and who's beck nurses, Trinidadian lime cooks,

9
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:49,200
Speaker 3: and Ethiopian aunties.

10
00:00:52,560 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 2: Yes, aunties. That's some pretty good smack right there. Oh yeah, yeah.

11
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 1: He is a fabulous talented populist and a Marxist and

12
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 1: Islamist and incredibly dangerous, but he's skilled.

13
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 2: Oh oh yeah.

14
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:09,679
Speaker 4: And one of the problems with that. And while it's

15
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:11,479
Speaker 4: nice that you want to stand up for that crowd

16
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 4: you just mentioned, you also need the kind of regular

17
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 4: makes a lot of money taxpayer to fund everything. And

18
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 4: if they decide you ain't, you ain't helping me in anyway.

19
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 4: They're they're a outsy.

20
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:24,959
Speaker 1: Yes, Margaret Thatcher reminded us, sooner or later, you run

21
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 1: out of other people's money to spend. So that's uh

22
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: zoron Mumdani obviously is victory speech in New York City

23
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:36,960
Speaker 1: last night. I'm reminded of the uh, the great transition

24
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 1: Marxism made after the whole workers of the world unite

25
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: thing failed.

26
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 2: Excuse me, uh, it failed.

27
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: Completely because the workers of the world were like, I

28
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 1: kind of have a good deal up for shop form

29
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 1: and I'm making a decent living and blah blah blah.

30
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: So communism failed to spread, and so it became I

31
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 1: won't bore you with the details, but it became outsiders

32
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: of the world unite, sexual outside immigrants, ethnic outsiders. That's

33
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 1: why he went through that long list. I'm with you,

34
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 1: We're going to overthrow the evil system anyway, So one

35
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:11,800
Speaker 1: more chunkiness speech.

36
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 4: And still think it is interesting that Bill Maher referred

37
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,519
Speaker 4: to him as a Communist on his HBO show of

38
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 4: Friday Night.

39
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's probably true.

40
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 4: Bill Maher grew up in New York and as a

41
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 4: lifelong Democrat and voted for Kamala Harris that Bill Maher

42
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 4: refers to mom Donnie as a communist.

43
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 2: Here is a key moment from his speech last night.

44
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 3: After all, the conventional wisdom would tell you that I

45
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 3: am far from the perfect candidate. I am young, despite

46
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 3: my best efforts to grow older. I am Muslim. I

47
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 3: am a Democratic Socialist, and most damning of all, I

48
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 3: refuse to apologize for any of this.

49
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,359
Speaker 1: Nobody's asked you to apologize for being Muslim, per se.

50
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,839
Speaker 1: Uh So, when the Democratic Socialists of America and he

51
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 1: pledges his loyalty to them, were founded in nineteen eighty two,

52
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 1: is by this guy by the name Michael Harrington, who

53
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:20,239
Speaker 1: was a public intellectually as an organizer, and the democratic

54
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 1: part of it was really important. He was anti Communist

55
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: in pro Israel for his entire life. And while he

56
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,919
Speaker 1: opened the doors of the DSSA to Leninists, Marxist Trotskyists,

57
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: and other aging radicals, the official line of the DSA

58
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: was pretty comparable to like a Ted Kennedy or a

59
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: George McGovern just a left lefty of the past.

60
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 4: I've never been able to wrap my head around Trotskyism

61
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 4: versus Leninism versus whatever. And I've tried a bunch of times. Yeah, yeah,

62
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 4: I just it's all crap. So what Brandon crap it is?

63
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 4: I just I run out of patience.

64
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 1: But so, for instance, the DSA wanted to raise the

65
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: minimum wage bad idea of nationalized health insurance they weren't

66
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 1: openly calling for the proletariat sees the means of production, etc.

67
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 1: And then Eli Lake in The Free Press points out

68
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: that now the DSA is a very, very different beast

69
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 1: than what Harrington founded in nineteen eighty two. Today the

70
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: DSA is run by activists enamored with the authoritarian left.

71
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 1: It's comrades attend talks at the Cuban mission to the

72
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: United Nations to hear from the regime's deputy Foreign Minister.

73
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 1: It's national program calls for a new constitution that replaces

74
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:34,159
Speaker 1: the House and Senate with a single federal legislature and

75
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,479
Speaker 1: places quote workers in charge of the government.

76
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 2: What the hell does that mean?

77
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 1: Well, it reminds me of DEI. We want diversity. What

78
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 1: does that mean? It means people who think exactly what

79
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 1: we mean, exactly what we think, and will claim it's

80
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 1: about race because Americans are afraid to be racist.

81
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 2: But it's entirely ideological.

82
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 1: You name a time they brought in a black conservative

83
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 1: to some DEI pro It will never ever happen.

84
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,719
Speaker 2: It's a canard, it's a head fake. Anyway.

85
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: The DSA supports prison abolition, literally emptying the prisons.

86
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 2: To respond to that, Yeah, believe in jail okay.

87
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 1: Last year, the DSA signed onto an open letter respecting

88
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 1: the rigged election in Venezuela, even after virtually every independent

89
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 1: observer and Latin American governments said its dictator, Nicholas Medora,

90
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 1: had stolen it.

91
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 4: Uh.

92
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:40,480
Speaker 1: DSA former member Jake Altman was interviewed for the Breaking

93
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: History podcast and he said, quote, it's very clear that

94
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: these Trotskyist groups, these Marxist Leninist groups, these Maoist groups,

95
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,160
Speaker 1: they're a voting block in the national organization. They control

96
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 1: a majority of the votes. So there's this real tension

97
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 1: between the people who have more pragmatic means and people

98
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 1: who are these purists who believe they're going to start

99
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 1: a vanguard party and have a revolution. This time around,

100
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 1: the DSA is about to win the biggest election in

101
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,240
Speaker 1: the history. At the very moment, the party itself has

102
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 1: been hijacked by illiberal revolutionaries who literally display hammers and

103
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 1: sickles in their social media profiles the way edge Lord

104
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 1: white nationalists bear swastikas. Maurice Issermon, an original member of

105
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 1: the DSA who quit two years ago, after the party

106
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: not only failed to condemned Hummas for October seventh, but

107
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:31,279
Speaker 1: celebrated it. He describes these new articles as entriists. In

108
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 1: a blistering essay for the Nation in twenty twenty three

109
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 1: and the Nation is a lefty publication, he wrote that

110
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 1: these radical caucuses achieved an effective majority inside the DSA

111
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 1: in August twenty three and have been consolidating power ever since.

112
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: The radicals, he wrote, quote, believed that DSA members elected

113
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 1: to public office were first and foremost obliged to follow

114
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 1: the positions adopted by the organization, rather than that their

115
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 1: constituents are their own conscience, as if they were already

116
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 1: simple ordinate to the dictates of an old fashioned Marxist

117
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:08,719
Speaker 1: Leninist central committee. One DSA messaging kit after October seventh

118
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 1: highlighted the new radicalism. Quote Resistance comes in all forms,

119
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 1: armed struggle, general strikes, and popular demonstrations. Not only do

120
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 1: do they not, you know, decry political violence, they call

121
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 1: for it. Responses like this led Isserman and a handful

122
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 1: of other DSA members to resign and protest, among them

123
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 1: comedian Sarah Silverman, who posted on Instagram, all caps FU,

124
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 1: You're not real Democratic socialists, and you sure as f

125
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 1: aren't liberal.

126
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 2: Anyway.

127
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 1: They are hard core Marxist Leninists, and they're proud of it.

128
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 2: They don't hide it.

129
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 1: They tell you what they are, they tell you who

130
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 1: they are, and they tell you what they're trying to do.

131
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 4: And first first words out of his mouth last night

132
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 4: were from Eugene Debs, the most successful socialist in American history.

133
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 2: And now this accident. He had written.

134
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 4: He knew he was gonna win, and he wrote his

135
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 4: speech right, And we have this weird laziness defense mechanism.

136
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 1: What is it, Jack, You can tell me what it

137
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 1: is that in the US we think, come on, those

138
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 1: people will never get over. It'll never happen here. They'll

139
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,679
Speaker 1: they'll come and they'll go this is a fad.

140
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 2: It'll be fine. Yeah.

141
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 4: George Will was writing about this in the Washington Post

142
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 4: about how every generation or so you have to re

143
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 4: teach people that socialism doesn't work. It is interesting that

144
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 4: because we are the best example in world history of

145
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 4: free market self governance working, we just assume that everybody

146
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 4: gets it by looking around, and we've got the highest

147
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 4: standard of living anybody's ever had in world history.

148
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,959
Speaker 2: What do you mean you hate your own country. What

149
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 2: do you mean you want to change systems? Right? Right?

150
00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,959
Speaker 1: You know, I just did a long read about both

151
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 1: Cambodia and Somalia, how the promises of socialism turned into

152
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 1: communist totalitarianism and the horrors that followed. And we're made

153
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 1: of much much stronger stuff than those places. I'm not

154
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 1: claiming we're like a teetering, little, brand new republic that's

155
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 1: had one election under its belt, but that kind of

156
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 1: that over confidence that leads us to, for instance, let

157
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 1: the radical left educate our children for a few generations

158
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 1: and think, yeah, that's not good. But I'm not gonna

159
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 1: worry about it. I'm not going to go to a

160
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 1: school board meeting. It's not that big a deal. I'm

161
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 1: telling you. We are going to reap what we sewed.

162
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,559
Speaker 1: Wake up, friends, Michael, isn't it time to play the

163
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 1: Joe Getty cold warrior sound?

164
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 2: I mean, god, cold warrior.

165
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 1: And I hate to undermind my own point with humor,

166
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 1: but this is not the paranoid ramblings of a crazy

167
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,960
Speaker 1: old guy. This this is so well documented over and

168
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 1: over in history how these movements get power and how

169
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 1: they exploit it. I'm trying to tell you. It can

170
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: happen here. It'll be a hell of a battle. But

171
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 1: and they won't get over like Cambodia. But what I'm

172
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 1: saying is the further we let it go, it's like

173
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 1: a disease, an infection. The further we let it go,

174
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 1: the more painful it will.

175
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 2: Be to beat it back. Maybe that's the rallying cry.

176
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,320
Speaker 4: The hope, of course, is that he is going to

177
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:33,439
Speaker 4: He's going to be the bad example, a good example

178
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 4: of a bad example, of a bad result, and display

179
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 4: for the whole country on the biggest stage why this

180
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 4: doesn't work.

181
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 2: Hopefully that's what happens. Yeah.

182
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,760
Speaker 1: The problem is, and we talked about this at length yesterday.

183
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: If you didn't get it, subscribe to the podcast Armstrong

184
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 1: and Getting on demand, is that socialism is built on

185
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 1: the excuse of no, they didn't let us do it

186
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 1: our way, they didn't let it just do it completely.

187
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: The money guys in New York stopped what could have

188
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 1: been the revolution. Blah blah blah, and the dewey I

189
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 1: dumb ass youngsters will say, yeah, yeah, we didn't really

190
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 1: get to try it. We got ninety eight percent of it,

191
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 1: but that last two percent, that was the two percent.

192
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 1: That mattered, So let's try it again.

193
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 4: So and then you could end up with since forty

194
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,839
Speaker 4: percent of the young people identified themselves as socialists last night,

195
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,440
Speaker 4: then you end up with something like seventy percent of

196
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,520
Speaker 4: young people identifying him, and you got a big enough

197
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 4: number of voters. It's not just the mayor, it's the

198
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 4: whole city council, and you know, handful of state representatives,

199
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:37,680
Speaker 4: and you actually start to get some.

200
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 2: Power, rights to do some things. And they do have

201
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 2: that increasingly, Like the.

202
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: How did the election go in Minneapolis where that Marxist

203
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,560
Speaker 1: Somali refugee was running for mayor?

204
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 2: They were still counting.

205
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 4: They were still counting as of this morning in both

206
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 4: of those races.

207
00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, and there are a couple other socialists running out.

208
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,760
Speaker 1: It's definitely a tide that is trickling in.

209
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 4: Heck of a thing. Irma gird will be fun to watch.

210
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 4: The American experiment has gone so beautifully. We've decided nothing

211
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:14,199
Speaker 4: can ever threaten.

212
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 2: It, and we got to take a break.

213
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:19,560
Speaker 4: But you know, a week or so ago, when he

214
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,439
Speaker 4: was talking about his auntie who was afraid to wear

215
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 4: a job on ther you live in such a islamophobic city,

216
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 4: they elected an unqualified Muslim as mayor. That's how islamophobic

217
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,680
Speaker 4: New York is. You're standing up in front of a

218
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 4: cheering crowd you won by twenty twenty five points and

219
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 4: claiming that you overcame. He actually said, we don't have this.

220
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 4: In one of them, he actually said, against all odds,

221
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:45,680
Speaker 4: against all odds, you were twenty five points.

222
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 1: I had the entire race. He ran against an elderly

223
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:55,319
Speaker 1: groping crook. Where's the against all odds part? And all

224
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 1: the dewey eyed kids slap it all up? Yeah, yes,

225
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 1: we did it. He did it against all odds.

226
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 2: Any thoughts on any of that?

227
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 4: Our text line four one five two nine five kftcar.

228
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 4: It was supposed to be a half day hunting trip

229
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 4: in woods that Ron Daily knew well until one wrong turn.

230
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,080
Speaker 5: And when I went down this hill, we going, oh God,

231
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 5: this seemed good. And in about three o'clock it started snowing.

232
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 4: No way out, no way to communicate, and almost no supplies.

233
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 5: And I had fourteen bottles of water, about nine hundred

234
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 5: calories were the food with.

235
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,439
Speaker 4: Me weeks past, and all Daily had left was his faith.

236
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 5: Then on day twenty, God woke me up at six

237
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 5: forty five Saturday morning, he goes wrong, get your boots on.

238
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:45,679
Speaker 2: Skoolwalking Daily calls. What happened next a miracle.

239
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 5: And they started yelling my name and they drove up

240
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 5: to me. It was his phenomenal three great men and

241
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 5: they saved my life.

242
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,200
Speaker 4: Okay, we're still missing some details here. So he's older

243
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 4: than I was picturing. From the sound of it. We

244
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,959
Speaker 4: did this story yesterday. The guy is stranded out in

245
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 4: the woods for three weeks.

246
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:09,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, twenty days.

247
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:13,319
Speaker 4: That's a long time. And my first and he didn't

248
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:18,160
Speaker 4: leave his spot, it seems. And my first question was,

249
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 4: why don't you start walking the road You couldn't get

250
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 4: your car up, but walk straight back out the way.

251
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 2: You came in. I mean three weeks is a long time. Yeah.

252
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 1: I have to know where what sort of terrain he

253
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 1: was in. He was at the bottom of the hill

254
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 1: because he couldn't get back up. What made him think

255
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 1: staying there was a good strategy? If he was an

256
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 1: experienced woodsman, maybe he has an explanation, but I'd like

257
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 1: to know what it is.

258
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 6: From the looks of it, it looked kind of like

259
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 6: a rock querry, really off like off balanced terrain. It

260
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 6: was snowing, and he's he's sixty five years old.

261
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 2: Oh, I'm going to stay here in this hole? Yeah,

262
00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 2: I don't know.

263
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 1: Uh, I don't love that as a strategy. I wasn't there.

264
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to be smug. I just don't get it.

265
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:05,800
Speaker 1: I mean, you don't necessarily want to wander off into

266
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 1: the cold and snow either.

267
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 2: But you gotta three weeks.

268
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 1: You gotta assess what are my chances of being seen

269
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 1: here down in this hole?

270
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:17,360
Speaker 2: Do you have a cell phone?

271
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 6: Sounds like he didn't because they said he had no

272
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 6: way of communicating.

273
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, there are plenty of places out there in

274
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 1: the wilds where a cell phone might as well be wrong.

275
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 4: Don't you have the if you got to know the

276
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 4: satellite call, if you got a newer cell phone anywhere

277
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 4: on the planet Earth, you just find the satellite in

278
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 4: the sky and you can text people.

279
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 2: I do it all the time. Maybe he didn't know,

280
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 2: Maybe he didn't satellite in the sky. How do you

281
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 2: do that? Do you go up into the sky looking

282
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 2: for it? Okay, interesting talking about it. I'm not just

283
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 2: gonna keep yelling from explaining yourself.

284
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 4: I thought everybody had used this technology it's amazing.

285
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:54,680
Speaker 2: Explains it to you on your phone.

286
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,400
Speaker 4: It says no cell service, find a satellite, and it

287
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 4: tells you which direction to point, and it shows the

288
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,120
Speaker 4: sound lights. It says, lock onto that one, and you

289
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 4: just put your phone that way.

290
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:05,720
Speaker 2: Anywhere on the planet. You could be on the middle

291
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 2: of the ocean.

292
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 4: And then as soon as you lock onto that satellite,

293
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 4: you can text anybody just like you got cell service.

294
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, what a great time to be alive.

295
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 1: Communists are taking over the country, but the technology is

296
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 1: pretty cool.

297
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's amazing. So yeah, so you know, if you're

298
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 4: going to go off into the middle of by just

299
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 4: the three weeks, that is a long time. How long

300
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 4: was he willing to wait? Since people showed up after

301
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 4: three weeks? Was he just gonna go ahead and start.

302
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 2: Death out there?

303
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give this staying in a hole plan I

304
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: don't know, maybe three weeks nobody comes bay, I'm gonna.

305
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 2: Climb out of the hole and take a walk. He's

306
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 2: incredibly patient. Yes, that's what we should admire.

307
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 1: His patient thinking three four days in, I'm rubbing my chin, thinking,

308
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 1: you know, maybe plan B and.

309
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 2: Hey, he had fourteen bottles of water.

310
00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 6: That's pretty good. Those people don't just have fourteen bottles

311
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 6: of water on, you know, on them.

312
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:07,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was fortunate. Saved his life probably. Man, it's

313
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,400
Speaker 2: a long time. What do you do all day? Every day?

314
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:12,159
Speaker 2: What's another song? I could whistle?

315
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,359
Speaker 4: Okay, we got more on the waist there, Armstrong and Get.

316
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,160
Speaker 7: The Subway just released new holiday sandwiches, including a.

317
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:26,720
Speaker 2: Turn hen Can, which is.

318
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 7: Which is a combo of turkey, ham and chicken. Get

319
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,119
Speaker 7: The turre hen Can features three types of meat, just

320
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 7: like their tuna.

321
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:43,119
Speaker 4: For some reason, yesterday I made a sandwich with some

322
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 4: left over try tip and I didn't have very much,

323
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,119
Speaker 4: so I put a couple of slices of the last

324
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 4: of my ham on top of it because I'd nevery

325
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:56,159
Speaker 4: much of that. And the combination of the two. Damn it.

326
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:59,199
Speaker 2: That was a good sandwich. How interesting? I don't know,

327
00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 2: old Yeah, so good.

328
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:05,640
Speaker 1: Combining the swine with the cow controversial.

329
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:09,639
Speaker 2: The whole barnyard. So Neil Katel name for it, the

330
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:10,960
Speaker 2: barnyard sandwich. Back to you.

331
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,320
Speaker 4: I don't know the names of many high profile lawyers,

332
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:15,160
Speaker 4: but I do know this one.

333
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:16,000
Speaker 2: Neil Kattel.

334
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 4: He is he represents whoever will hire him All kinds

335
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 4: of different stuff, and he's just one of the best

336
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,440
Speaker 4: arguers in the world, and he ends up in front

337
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 4: of the Supreme Court all the time and has over

338
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 4: some of the biggest issues of our lives. Even if

339
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 4: you don't remember his name, he's in front of the

340
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,679
Speaker 4: Supreme Court today. I don't even know which side he's on.

341
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 4: I suppose we'll be able to figure it out from

342
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:41,360
Speaker 4: the conversation he he's in the Supreme Court today where

343
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 4: they're trying to figure out whether or not Donald Trump

344
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,919
Speaker 4: actually does have the legal right to get into all

345
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:51,399
Speaker 4: these tariffs solely on his order. Let's listen to a

346
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 4: little from the oral arguments going forward.

347
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,119
Speaker 8: The solution they said in footnote thirty three was to

348
00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,879
Speaker 8: use Section one twenty two of the nineteen seventy f

349
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 8: or A Trade Act fifteen percent one hundred and fifty days.

350
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,200
Speaker 8: So we have no problem with the president doing that.

351
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,399
Speaker 8: It's just that this president has torn up the entire

352
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 8: tariff architecture. You know, for example, he's teriffing Switzerland, one

353
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 8: of our allies, which we have a trade surplus thirty

354
00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:19,920
Speaker 8: nine percent. That is just not something that any president

355
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,719
Speaker 8: has ever had the power to do. In our history,

356
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:26,479
Speaker 8: and the idea that Congress by implication did this in

357
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 8: nineteen seventy seven and handed him all this power I

358
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:31,359
Speaker 8: think is really difficult.

359
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:35,680
Speaker 4: Okay, So making the argument, well, this has been true

360
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,199
Speaker 4: about the whole TARFF thing from the beginning, right, So

361
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:43,879
Speaker 4: they they come up with what they think will be

362
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:47,200
Speaker 4: the rationale, kind of case by case. It's a fentanyl, Yeah,

363
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 4: that's it. It's a national emergency. That's why it's a

364
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 4: trade imbalance. It's a trade imbalance. That's a national emergency,

365
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:55,639
Speaker 4: except for it's not here. It's just an an I

366
00:19:55,640 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 4: guess revenue or I've got a long held beef that

367
00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:02,920
Speaker 4: we're such a dominant economy we can bend other people

368
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 4: to our will, which I think is really it.

369
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:10,119
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, we can strong arm a better deal and

370
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 1: they will pay dearly to sell it in our shopping mall.

371
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:19,160
Speaker 1: It's not an insane notion, it's just an unconstitutional one

372
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 1: in my opinion.

373
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,679
Speaker 4: So, speaking of the economy, I was listening to a

374
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,760
Speaker 4: podcast about the economy the other day, is actually a

375
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 4: Dispatch podcast, and they got into the whole our current

376
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 4: debt and thirty five trillion dollars or whatever the heck

377
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 4: it is, and how something that can't continue will end

378
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:40,879
Speaker 4: as we all know, and what it's going to look like.

379
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:42,200
Speaker 2: Anyway, they got into.

380
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 4: The whole argument of we're not as good a risk

381
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 4: as we used to be on the world stage for

382
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 4: people to invest their money in the United States around

383
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:57,159
Speaker 4: the world. But the point being, if we're ever not

384
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 4: the best pace to put your money, where you put

385
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 4: your money is not the issue. You need to not

386
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 4: invest in like you know, tech in Germany. You need

387
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,640
Speaker 4: to invest in bullets and food because everything has come

388
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,159
Speaker 4: off the rails in a way that the world has

389
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 4: never seen.

390
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 2: Ah, which makes sense. I right, right, Yeah, Okay.

391
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,639
Speaker 4: That's the level of crisis we'd be talking about if

392
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:33,919
Speaker 4: we ever aren't the best place to park your money.

393
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 1: Right, Wow, what an interesting insight that I'd say it is. Yeah,

394
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 1: it rings true too, yesh.

395
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,200
Speaker 2: I hope that doesn't happen in my lifetime.

396
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 4: There are a number of things I kind of am

397
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:46,879
Speaker 4: looking forward to happening in my lifetime, even if they

398
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 4: they're good, like watching the whole young people are Socialists

399
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 4: thing play out. How's that gonna work? It's gonna suck,

400
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,119
Speaker 4: I think, and I worry about where it's going to go,

401
00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:58,720
Speaker 4: But man, I don't want the really bad everybody else

402
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:00,959
Speaker 4: all of a sudden, completely bro. You thought you had

403
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 4: worked your whole life and saved and things were okay,

404
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 4: and it turns out you're not. I don't want to

405
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:08,200
Speaker 4: lift through that. It's happened in many countries throughout history,

406
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,240
Speaker 4: including this one in the thirties.

407
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 2: I don't even want to think about that. O don't either.

408
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 1: It's too horrifying. Yes it is, here's one for you. No,

409
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:24,160
Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna say it.

410
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:29,919
Speaker 2: It's too nightmarish. No, I can't.

411
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 4: Wow, you've come up with a night Does it include

412
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 4: a radiation and a lizard getting really tall and smashing

413
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:38,879
Speaker 4: buildings with its feet?

414
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,119
Speaker 2: How'd you know in subway trains?

415
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 1: Yeah?

416
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 2: No, here it is.

417
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:48,320
Speaker 1: And I think about this more than I should. Where's

418
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 1: your money? I'm asking everybody it's held in this account,

419
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 1: that account, unless you got gold bars buried in your backyard.

420
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 1: China has already hacked into our various financial systems, and

421
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 1: they just either wipe everybody's books clean or render it

422
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:12,920
Speaker 1: impossible to transfer funds electronically in any way.

423
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:15,800
Speaker 2: For years.

424
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,959
Speaker 4: I don't know if it have to be years. I

425
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 4: don't even know how many days it would have to

426
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,640
Speaker 4: be before things would get really crazy.

427
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 1: I mean we had both, We and many many folks

428
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,399
Speaker 1: listening have been working their entire lives and saving and

429
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 1: doing the right things. But I don't know about you.

430
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:35,199
Speaker 1: My money is essentially being held in little zeros and

431
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 1: ones sure on a server symptoms right exactly. I can

432
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,320
Speaker 1: call up you know this and then Charles Schwaber whoever's

433
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 1: got you know this chunk of my money and say, hey, dudes,

434
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 1: just last week you had X amount of my money.

435
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:50,919
Speaker 1: I need some of it now. And they're like, if

436
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:56,080
Speaker 1: it's not on this screen, don't funny thing about that. Yeah, yeah,

437
00:23:56,160 --> 00:24:00,360
Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying. And yet the Chinese act

438
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:02,440
Speaker 1: into our computers, so I don't know if you've got

439
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,360
Speaker 1: one hundred bucks or one hundred million bucks, good luck

440
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:06,320
Speaker 1: with that click.

441
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 2: You think they'd hang out with it so well, they're

442
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,159
Speaker 2: tired of taking calls from people like me. They're fed up.

443
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:14,160
Speaker 2: How about years?

444
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 4: But a guy, if that, if that lasted a week,

445
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,879
Speaker 4: the panic you would have in the country, Oh what

446
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 4: do you do?

447
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 1: I mean, back in the thirties, you'd have a run

448
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 1: on the bank. Literally people would line up outside the

449
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,160
Speaker 1: bank and demand their money because they were afraid their

450
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 1: deposits wouldn't be there because of the way banks work.

451
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 1: We all know that, right now, what are you gonna do.

452
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:35,000
Speaker 1: You're gonna stand there screaming at your.

453
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:39,040
Speaker 9: Laptop, thread it with a ball, bath money your bathroom,

454
00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 9: start pounding on it, go to their corporate headquarters and

455
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 9: chant with a few of your friends.

456
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:46,200
Speaker 2: How much less.

457
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:49,199
Speaker 4: Prepared are we individually for a global catastrophe now than

458
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 4: when we're in nineteen twenty nine, Like if you've read

459
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:53,879
Speaker 4: the Grapes of Wrath, I mean, it was obviously a

460
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 4: very very ugly situation. But I saw the numbers the

461
00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,240
Speaker 4: other day. It's something like forty percent of people made

462
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 4: their living something adjacent to farming. Now it's ero point

463
00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:06,400
Speaker 4: three percent or something like that. I'm not raising any

464
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 4: crops or animals currently. Yeah, And so as soon as

465
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:13,679
Speaker 4: the shelves go bear the on the store, which might

466
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:17,960
Speaker 4: be that afternoon in a global catastria, I can't feed myself.

467
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:18,880
Speaker 1: Yeah.

468
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,159
Speaker 2: Then that that's where you know, we've always thought this

469
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:21,600
Speaker 2: was coming.

470
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 1: We both get in the gym and stuff, but I'm

471
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 1: not sure I'm hearty enough for the Apocalypse Cannibal in

472
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 1: my life. Yeah, well yeah, and I am delicious. Anyway,

473
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 1: that's enough of that. I told you it was too

474
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,439
Speaker 1: horrifying to bring up. I wish I hadn't. So what

475
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,520
Speaker 1: would happen if the Supreme Court says, yeah, yeah, you

476
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:43,680
Speaker 1: can't just assign a ten percent extra terrifying Canada because

477
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 1: you're annoyed by a TV commercial. Please, what happens to

478
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:52,720
Speaker 1: all those trade deals? Some countries would almost certainly walk

479
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 1: away from their agreements or renegotiate them. Some countries might think,

480
00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:01,400
Speaker 1: you know, it's a decent enough deal. Seat President could

481
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 1: go to Congress to say, hey, we got to put

482
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 1: these trade deals into law. So now that I don't

483
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 1: have the power to just you know, declare them well.

484
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 1: President could also hire his lawyers to say, all right,

485
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 1: claim you can do tariffs on this pretext, and it's

486
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 1: possible the courts would let him for a while until

487
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court answers that question. Remember, the Supreme Court

488
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,240
Speaker 1: doesn't rule on cases, it settles questions.

489
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,679
Speaker 4: But there's also the issue from what I've read that like,

490
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:35,200
Speaker 4: maybe you paid five thousand dollars extra for a new car,

491
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 4: then you would have if the tariffs didn't exist.

492
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 2: And you should get that money back? Who has it?

493
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,680
Speaker 2: Where'd it go? How that whole thing get worked out?

494
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:48,440
Speaker 4: Chinese hacked into it? He can't get it anyway? Eh, boy,

495
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 4: that'll be fun. Is there any chance of Supreme Court

496
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:56,879
Speaker 4: makes some sort of sort of ruling where we're so

497
00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:00,679
Speaker 4: far down the road of this, it's so intermingled and complicated.

498
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:04,040
Speaker 2: We got a nah that that's a bad way to

499
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:04,919
Speaker 2: go to look at it.

500
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:07,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, you can't stick with a bad idea that was

501
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:09,880
Speaker 4: illegal just because you're too far down the road.

502
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,639
Speaker 1: Right, It'd be like Joe Biden saying, Look, I've been

503
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,359
Speaker 1: running the graft game so long. My entire family depends

504
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,480
Speaker 1: on it. You can't bust us now in the court

505
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 1: saying yeah, all those grant and.

506
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,199
Speaker 2: My son's walking around hotels naked with guns. I mean,

507
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:22,800
Speaker 2: ye got right? Right?

508
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:25,879
Speaker 1: Uh Yeah, that's that's unlikely. You know what, I'd love

509
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 1: to see. It probably won't happen, but like a nine

510
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 1: to o ruling that Look, Congress, do your jobs. We'll

511
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,119
Speaker 1: give you us four months to do your damn job.

512
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 1: We've got a ruling here, it's all written out. It's

513
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:44,000
Speaker 1: in this folder. But Congress do something.

514
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,679
Speaker 4: Speaking of Congress, Marjorie Taylor Green is one of the

515
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 4: best known Congress people in America.

516
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,639
Speaker 2: She is a Republican. She was on the View yesterday.

517
00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 4: She said some really interesting things. You think Mom Dommy

518
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,680
Speaker 4: might be remaking the Democratic Party? Is mt G gonna

519
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:06,280
Speaker 4: remake what Republicans are all about? And Trump might be

520
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:09,399
Speaker 4: with her. And I saw of a Vake Ramaswami today

521
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,119
Speaker 4: talking about this populis well, hear a little of this

522
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 4: coming up next to here, Barty.

523
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 10: I yelled at Mike Johnson last week on our GOP

524
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 10: conference called by the way, I'm missing the call today

525
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,720
Speaker 10: it's going on right now, and I hope that Mike

526
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:29,200
Speaker 10: Johnson is finally giving a single health care policy because

527
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 10: the country deserves it, and it shouldn't be a secret,

528
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,199
Speaker 10: and I shouldn't have to go into a skiff to

529
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 10: go find our Republican health insurance plan. Very you know

530
00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 10: what you want to know something that I.

531
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:43,760
Speaker 2: Believe is the truth.

532
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 10: There's a lot of ideas, there's a lot of bills,

533
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 10: but there's no consensus, and I think that's a failure.

534
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 9: I do so.

535
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 4: Marjorie Taylor Green was on the View where She was

536
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 4: received very well because she agreed with a lot of

537
00:28:56,400 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 4: their populist the what's the right term? I was gonna

538
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 4: say downtrodden, but the masses are getting screwed and need

539
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 4: help from the government. Her whole thing around this shut

540
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 4: down in Obamacare comes from her two kids. We're about

541
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 4: to get booted off the free Obamacare and have to

542
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 4: start paying a lot more. And she thought that was wrong,

543
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:27,080
Speaker 4: and it sounded like because she didn't she said single

544
00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 4: health care policy. Did she mean single pay health care policy? Yes,

545
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 4: that's what she meant, as in, she wants to go

546
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 4: full government healthcare. A Republican, one of the more popular,

547
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 4: one of the most maga Republican congress people in America

548
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 4: wants to go single healthcare.

549
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:46,040
Speaker 2: So where are we?

550
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 1: She has wandered far off the reservation, the Maga reservation.

551
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:55,880
Speaker 1: I don't know what she is right now, Bill Crystal.

552
00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 4: I don't know if you know who Bill Crystal is.

553
00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:59,480
Speaker 4: You don't need to know who. All these people are

554
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,000
Speaker 4: of a perfectly happy life. But he used to run

555
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 4: the Weekly Standard. His dad was Irving Crystal, one of

556
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 4: the most important conservative thinkers in America in the entire

557
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 4: twentieth century. Bill Crystal said over the weekend he would

558
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 4: vote for Mom Donnie the socialist, So one of the

559
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 4: most important conservative voices who since has gone to Uh,

560
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 4: he's a Bulwark guy, right, And I think he's a

561
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 4: Bullwark guy or is he a Lincoln. He's one of

562
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 4: those groups that hates Trump, loathsome either way. And so

563
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,240
Speaker 4: a guy that I watched my whole life on the

564
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:36,320
Speaker 4: Sunday talk shows standing up for conservatism against the mainstream

565
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 4: media and all the nut job liberals now says he

566
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 4: would vote for the communist mayor.

567
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 2: Of New York. Why he lost his mind.

568
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 4: I didn't hear or read the why, but a lot

569
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 4: of people were interested in the statement he made. But

570
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 4: he's so anti Trump, I mean, he's blinded by his

571
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,280
Speaker 4: hatred of Trump to all kinds of things, in my opinion,

572
00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 4: But that combined with Marjorie Taylor Green want to go

573
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 4: single payer healthcare system. I don't know where we are.

574
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 4: I don't know where things are. I don't know if

575
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 4: the whole left right thing is going to break down completely,

576
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:09,720
Speaker 4: and then maybe it should and we come up with

577
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:11,240
Speaker 4: a different kind of an alignment.

578
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:12,480
Speaker 2: I don't know what it would be.

579
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, I think it would end up being like

580
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 1: really left and slightly less left, like England, which is terrible,

581
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 1: or France or Canada. Yeah, I find myself wanting to

582
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 1: do like an extended segment with Craig the Healthcare Guru,

583
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 1: just because you know, I read so much about our

584
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:38,840
Speaker 1: healthcare system and how crony capitalism has ruined it. The

585
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:41,959
Speaker 1: idea that we are in the mess we're in because

586
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,600
Speaker 1: of the free market is the opposite of the truth.

587
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:51,480
Speaker 1: And Obamacare was an unbelievably insidious fix of giving enormous

588
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: gifts to various insurance companies and other entities as opposed

589
00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 1: to letting the free market work and let consumers choose

590
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:05,920
Speaker 1: their health care and insurance companies are healthcare providers compete

591
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,520
Speaker 1: And it's I get discouraged when we're even talking about it,

592
00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 1: because there is so much there that a demagogue, whether

593
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 1: it's a a deliberate excuse me, radical like Mumdani or or.

594
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 2: Probably well meaning.

595
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 1: Not genius like MTG, they spout these solutions and people think, yeah, yeah,

596
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 1: that because trying to actually understand what's going on and

597
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,120
Speaker 1: then overcome the power.

598
00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:42,800
Speaker 2: Of the lobbyists.

599
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 1: It is just I don't know, that's like climbing three

600
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 1: mount everests stacked on top of each other.

601
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, it's just discouraging.

602
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 1: It's so screwed up and so important healthcare, I.

603
00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:01,400
Speaker 4: Mean, yeah, well just in general, who's out there making

604
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:08,240
Speaker 4: the good argument for fiscal conservatism, traditional republican sort of.

605
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,719
Speaker 2: Politics? I mean, is that just completely dead? All of that.

606
00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 1: Let's tear apart the crony capitalism and give people the

607
00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 1: actual right to choose no, because there are lobbyists lined

608
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 1: up a thousand deep ready to write gigantic checks to

609
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 1: lawmakers to make sure the scam continues. And I'm sorry,

610
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 1: it's so it's so discouraging. I don't mean to be

611
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 1: that way. I really don't.

612
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 2: It's just a.

613
00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:38,840
Speaker 1: Realist and everything sucks and always will and compulsively honest,

614
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 1: and I really need to beat that impulse back to

615
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:45,080
Speaker 1: provide a more entertaining listening product.

616
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:50,080
Speaker 2: I apologize. I'll do better, strong.

617
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 6: Strong.

618
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 4: In other words, there's a realignment going on that who

619
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:05,800
Speaker 4: knows where it's going to land.

620
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 2: I don't know. Let's see if.

621
00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:09,200
Speaker 4: Our host for final thoughts cannot depress this.

622
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:12,160
Speaker 2: Here he is Joe getting this.

623
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:17,760
Speaker 1: Is why you want limited government, because once unlimited government

624
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:20,640
