just love, love, Love, love Love the American business spotlight my name
today after Bill Belichick, who decided to also steal the thunder of Nick Saban
and retire yesterday, or at least retire from the Patriots. I don't know
if he's retiring retiring like from the game, but he is retiring from the
Patriots. I don't know. I think, well, because he said I'll
always be a Patriot, right, but what does that really mean? I
mean, I feel like that means that he's always going to be a Patriot
and he's going to retire. I mean, these guys make bookoob amounts of
money, don't they so they do. It's not like he couldn't retire.
I mean he absolutely could financially. But like Willie, Yeah, I don't
know, you guys can somebody said he somebo said he got fired. Really
I think he announced, Well, maybe it was a mutual thing. I
don't know, he's a forced retirement. Yeah, I don't know, I
do, I don't know, but he's gone. And to me, that
just makes the two angriest, meanest looking coaches in both you know, professional
and college football, by really mean looking. You think savings me have you
seen him smile. I mean, it's it's not that he he doesn't smile,
but like his face in general, I don't think is a super mean
face. I've seen a lot meaner faces. I mean, he's not.
He doesn't have a mazy face where it's just blank. To me, he
looks mean all the time. Yeah, I think you're a little biased.
That might be true, a little bit. That's probably true. Anyway,
he's no longer with the New England Patriots. That is the main point.
And also a couple just like high line items before we get into videos and
some of the big, big big news. Hunter Biden has pled not guilty
to all nine of his tax charges against him, So he's not guilty.
He says, Okay, all right, whatever, and then oh my god,
you guys, So the Iowa primary that's happening on Monday, right,
and the predictions for the weather are horrific, Like the predictions for the weather
all over the country are horrific. Everyone's going through like the most horrible deep
free and here in Texas and oh my god, storms last night. I
didn't sleep at all. Like it's like everything sucks everywhere weather wise. Yeah,
on Tuesday, the high here is the high. It's going to be
five, and I think the low is like negative nine or it's something awful.
And this cold snap is going to happen and it's going to be in
place for a good long while. And in Iowa they're talking about like way
negative negative negative temperatures and then the windshills on top of that are going to
be horrific, and they're talking about it affecting obviously turnout when it comes to
the caucusing, and Laura Lumer is suggesting that Nikki Hayley, with her military
connection, is purposefully impacting the weather. I mean, when I, oh
my god, I have to I have to read you the tweet because it
was believable. I was like, oh my god, I just okay.
So here is what here's what she said. She said, is the Deep
State activating harp haa RP to disrupt the Iowa Caucus. We all know Nikki
Hayley has a lot of friends in the defense industry and the military industrial complex.
She's losing in Iowa and now Iowa is set to get hit with a
once in a decade blizzard as Donald Trump is set to dominate the Iowa caucus
looks like weather manipulation to me. Take a look at this weather radar below
and how the incoming snowstorm accelerates out of nowhere. Oh my god, Iowa
doesn't get hit with snowstorms in January all the time, all the time.
It's like Indiana, Indiana does I gave birth to my daughter, their all
freaking blizzard like fourteen years ago. I can't. Okay, somebody needs to
check on her. Somebody needs to check on her and make sure she's okay,
because she's not okay. I mean, seriously, if you are a
person who follows her un ironic, stop it. Just stop it right now.
I mean, just she's a lunatic. Because she's applored and Iowa's listened.
I believe that they're gonna show because they're Iowans. They're used to if
you are from Iowa or from Indiana. Like, if you're from a place
like Iowa, you and you've grown up there and you're used to this,
you're like whatever, it's a blizzard, Like we're just gonna go, like
we're gonna make of course they're gonna show up. These are hardy people that
are and this is what happens in the winter, and also how does she
know that a snowstorm is gonna specifically impact Trump voters? Like why wouldn't pick
Trump voters to her more than Desanta's voters or Haley supporters, Or that doesn't
even make any sense, Like there's no way of predicting how the weather is
going to impact turnout per candidate, Like that just makes no sense. I
just I cannot. I cannot what people she needs? She needs some serious
help somebody needs to get she really does anyway, All right, before okay,
before we get to videos, can I just take a moment of personal
privilege if I'm absolutely Yesterday was my boy's twenty seventh birthday, And for those
of you who are unfamiliar with my older son, we are going to do
a deep dive about him next week. So the deep dive for this Saturday
that comes out has already been recorded, and it's great, it's gonna be.
It's all about Lulu Lemon and like all the controversy that's surrounding Lulu Lemon
right now. So make sure to listen to that for sure on Saturday when
it drops. But next Saturday we're gonna do We're gonna tell the Thomas story.
I think what I might do is get I'll probably post in our locals
group and our insiders group and ask people what their questions are because I don't
really know how to tell the story. Yeah, I don't know how to
tell this. Maybe you should just interview me about it. I may have
to do that. Yeah, maybe I'll know, kind of like what you
do with my dad's story, you know, and my dad died and we
did that whole story, but my dad my ridiculous dysfunctional family, like you
basically interviewed me because it is kind of weird to talk about yourself. So
I'll do that. I'll maybe I'll just interview you, you know what I
mean, And I'll ask people what questions because I genuinely don't know what people
are curious about, because you know, I've lived with I've lived his whole
life, right, so I don't know what the questions are. But in
any case, I posted the most precious video of him at his house as
his caregiver Trey was about to bring him home for Christmas, and so he
was smiling and it was just the most precious thing ever. And my Instagram
feed was flooded with lovely comments and well wishes for his birthday, except for
a couple of people, one in particular, who is also a special needs
mom, and I guess a special needs mom of a boy with similar issues,
although I looked at her page and saw that he's much more functional than
my Thomas. And she asked me a question which I thought was super intrusive
in like the way that she asked it was super intrusive, because she said,
why doesn't he live with you anymore? I have a twenty eight year
old son with CP and he lives with us. And so I thought,
Okay, well, maybe I'm just reading that wrong, you know what I
mean, Like, maybe I'm reading into that a toone that's not really there,
and so I'll just answer it. And so I answered I and I
told her it's because after I think, when did we move him out?
He was like twenty two, twenty three years old, I think something like
that, and our bodies are are continued to be broken as a result of
just our inability to provide him with the care that he needed round the clock.
So it was a difficult decision, but it was the right decision for
our family. And I don't make I have No, I don't feel bad
about it at all, because it made perfect sense and we found a great
place for him to be. So so that's I answered her and I explained,
and she wrote back the most judgmental, holier than now, a bunch
of crap that I could not believe. I could not believe what I was
reading, and I lost my temper big time, and I responded, and
then she blocked me, and then this morning she was back at it,
not apologetic at all. Anyway, the reason I'm bringing it up now,
because we'll talk more about that in the Deep Dive, is that so many
people on Insiders I guess, saw that happening and rushed to support and offer
really really kind words of support. And I just wanted to tell you guys
that I appreciate it. That was very That was really really nice. Our
insiders and our locals people, they have your back. Everybody has backs,
and that's what those communities are all about. So yeah, I mean they're
amazing people. Don't don't like, don't just walk run if you are thinking
about joining those groups, because they're amazing serious because if you need support of
any kind, those they have your back in every single way. And I
can't believe that this fight continues. I can't even believe I continue to respond
to her. I don't know why I'm wasting my time, but I can't
help myself because I just can't believe that. I think, as a mom
of a special needs son herself, she of all people, should know how
inappropriate her comments were, and the fact that she doesn't it just makes me
insane, like I want to explain it to her in a way that maybe
makes her think twice before leveling those same kinds of attacks on someone else who
would be devastated by it. I just don't want anybody else to have to
go through that, I guess, and I just cannot believe that she thinks
that way, that she thinks it's okay to make those judgments. I it
was wow anyway. So we'll get into more of the Thomas story and all
that stuff next week. And now it is time for news. But it
is also time too before I forget to remind everybody about Healthy Cell our friends
at Healthy Cell. I wanted to show everybody because I don't think I have
shown what a seven day trial pack of Healthy Cells products looks like. This
is what you get if you want to just try a week's worth of their
products. This specifically is their Joint Health and Mobility packet. And if you
don't know about Genusell, this is what it looks like. This is their
vitamin pack, their vitamin supplement pack, and it is like it's a gooey
substance that tastes delicious. The Joint Health and Mobility one specifically is orange flavored
and it has the equivalent in this one pack of eleven different pills worth of
supporting nutrients. So we're talking glucosamine, chondroiten, hyaluronic acid, collagen precursors,
curcumin, omega threes. It's got all the things that your joints need
to stay healthy. And so if you're of an age like we are,
when your joints start saying, excuse me, but al what are you doing?
Why are you exercising that hurts? This is the product for you.
And you can get twenty percent off your first order when you visit healthysell dot
com slash Hicks and it keeps working. It it works because it actually absorbs.
Because I mean, I'm I am a testament to that. Like with
the other ones, I don't I don't use that one specifically, but I
use like two other the two of the other ones. Amazing stuff, amaze,
Oh my god, the hairskin and nails, you guys working, my
god. And she has tried literally everything. I've tried everything. Yeah,
like expensive stuff. I mean I've literally like set money on fire and this
stuff works. So yeah, try it. It's awesome. Okay, let's
get into something. So Jill Biden, doctor Jill Biden, as she likes
to be called, she went she did an interview with Mika because of course,
right like, who else is she going to do an interview with?
It was either gonna be Rachel matt or Mega Berzinski. So she did an
interview with Mika, and Mika asked her all the important questions about Joe Biden's
age. And so that's where this first clip starts. Husband to eighty one.
At the end of the second term, he'd be eighty six as his
life partner of forty six years. Is there a part of you that is
worried about his age and health? Can he do it? He can do
it? And I see Joe every day. I see him out, you
know, traveling around this country. I see his vigor. I see his
energy, I see his passion. It's elder abuse, man, It's that's
what this is. She's totally taking advantage because she loves being in that position,
she loves being in that house, she likes all the perks, she
likes all the money that we give her. It's total elder abuse. This
woman has problems. Shame on her for doing what she's doing. After everything
that we've seen, every clip, we could give her a montage of all
the times that guy has fallen, stuttered, not known where he is,
I mean, crapped his pants. Seriously, this woman is I have zero
respect for her. I know and productorate is what in education? You would
think that she would know what the word vigor actually means. I don't think
she does. Do you mean rigor or vigor? What is it? What
is it? I mean that, Yeah, I get that she sees him
every day, but unfortunately we see him a lot of days. And yeah,
we see her propping him up right right, We see her holding his
hand and telling him what to do. And I mean she is his caretaker
essentially. So yeah, it's this is it's just unbelievable, the amount of
elder It's elder abuse period. It totally is it? Totally? Is now.
To Mika's credit, she pushed back on this answer and said, well,
what about all the voters out there who are saying eighty one is too
freaking old. So to those who say I can't vote for Joe Biden he's
too old, what do you say? I say his age is an asset.
Ah, he's wise. Yes, he's wise. He has wisdom,
he has experience, he knows every leader on the world stage. He's lived
history, he knows history, and he's thoughtful in his decisions. He is
the right man or the right person for the job. Shared it back up
on that one, because it's like, oh, I mean the right person
for that one. He's he's totally not. No, he could not be
less of the right person. But you know, this was a this was
mostly a fluff interview, and Mika you can hear it in her. I
mean you could hear her fill in the words for her when she was like,
he's he's not too old, he's and Mika was like, he's wise,
he's wise. I'll help you. I've got it because yeah, because
I've said in past interviews that when you're old, it can mean that you're
wise and that you've been around the world and you're like, you're worldly and
you're old. It's like your experience and you're why. And so yeah,
she's filling in the blanks for her, but it's not working because we all
know and we've seen it. We all know and we have seen it.
That's exactly right. And so next Mika asks, how are you coping?
Like, how are you dealing with the fact that everybody is so mean to
your husband? And here is that exchange. I think what people don't see
is how hard Joe works every single day that he gets up thinking what he
can do for the American people. How have you been coping personally with the
onslaught of accusations against your husband and your family, including and especially Hunter's the
focus of a House oversight committee hearing holding him in contempt, obsessing over him,
showing picture of him during vulnerable moments in his battle with addiction on the
floor of the house. This would crush any family, Mika, I think
what they are doing to Hunter is cruel, and I'm really proud of how
Hunter has rebuilt his life after addiction. You know, I'm I love my
son and it's had It's hurt my grandchildren, and that's what I'm so concerned
about that it's affecting their lives as well. Does she did it hurt the
grandchild that they didn't acknowledge for several years? The one that he had with
the stripper is that which like that one or just all the other ones that
they acknowledged for a while before we had to force them to acknowledge that.
What the seventh one that they didn't acknowledge that grandchild, which you know,
they stopped, they stopped having stockings because of that grandchild. Like so they
they you know, they're they're apparently in the child's life in whatever way that
means to them. But they stopped doing their individual stockings this holiday season because
they didn't want to be asked about that. I mean, yeah, well
of course least that's my assumption. Why would you want to be asked about
that, that grandchild that you didn't want to acknowledge for years? Right?
What a phony? I know. So Jesse Waters had a great bit last
night about the difference between the two president's sons, So how Trump's sons were
treated versus Biden's sons, and here that is difference between these two is so
easy. One president told his son to cooperate with investigations. One president told
his son to obstruct the investigation. One president had his son donate all of
the foreign money to the treasury. One president had his son spend the foreign
money on hookers and cocaine. There is more evidence that Biden is in business
with his son than there ever was that Trump colluded with the Russians. This
guy is such a stone cold liar. It's going to just take one crack
in this entire cover up for this entire thing to fall apart. There is
no one being cruel to Hunter, if anybody. Jill's being cruel to Joe
for making this guy run for president again. Joe has been cruel to his
son for making his addict around the world instead of go to rehab. And
Hunter is being cruel to his family and his and his and his children for
raising their college funds for cocaine. This is this story is upside down backwards,
whatever you want to call it. I can't wait for Trump's president so
I can play the gotcha game and this trial. I wonder what just I
wonder what Tarlov said about that. I don't even know if I don't even
think it was her last night, I think it might have been Harold.
Yeah, he's a little bit more level headed. Yeah, Okay, let's
get to election. Well, actually, before we get to election stuff,
let's get to just the utter incompetence of every single member of this administration.
Because you probably heard, we're now shooting missiles into Yemen at the hoothies.
Like the world is literally on fire. There's so many hot spots. It's
I don't even know how we were spread so thin, you know what I
mean, as a superpower. So everything is going crazy and everyone in the
administration is useless. Biden himself has been basically absent the last couple of days,
which is a question that Peter Juicy had for KJP three days swing.
But for the last three days Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, none of his
constituents have seen him doing anything. Who decided that the American people are best
served by seeing less of president I would disagree. I wouldn't say they saw
less of the president. He was out there again, a couple of states
in three days. I think that's important to note as well, and give
give the American people fool the full information here. So he's been gone for
three days. We've got all this military stuff going on. He has no
idea where his defense. Nobody knows anything. It's like the Keystone Cops right,
Like it's there's so much a neptness in this administration, our military we've
talked about on several occasions. Is is I don't know, They're not what
they used to be, right, you know, like it's so de eied
out, and it's I'm I don't feel safe. I don't know about you
guys, but I don't. No, I don't. I don't think anybody
does, and especially because they are being spread so thin, you know what
I mean. It's it's so bad. So he's absent. And then Kamala,
who, of course, as you recall, is supposed to be the
borders are and who's I don't think she's ever been to the actual border.
She decided what what would be the most useful place for her to visit is
a middle school that's already bad enough on its face. It's the way that
she talked to sixth, seventh, and eighth graders ostensibly like they are absolute
toddlers that I was amazed at. Here she is just greeting them, like
just about to greet them for the first time. Okay, I'm so happy
to see all these young leaders. You know, I just got off the
plane let's called air Force too from Whyking DC to kind of visit with you
all because I didn't care about you. You are so oh my god,
just on a plane? Have you got to do? You know what a
plane is? It's she has kids. I mean she's never there stepkids,
right, but she has helped to raise children. Does she know like what
the different age groups are? Like? Maybe maybe her stepkids are just that
dumb. Oh, that's the only thing I can think of. I don't
know why she would talk to people that age in that way. And I
think every time she said interaction with children, they've given her a script,
which is terrified. So I just my god, this is just it's crazy.
My daughter, if she were there, she'd be like, who is
this stupid broad? What's going on? I think? Wow? Yeah,
that's nice. You run your little plane and it's just wow. Okay,
So I mean again, it's just point. I'm just giving you some examples
in this next group of videos of the level of incompetence that we're dealing with
in this administration. Next up, we've got a woman by the name of
Laale I think I'm saying her name right, Laale Brainerd, who is Biden's
chief economic advisor, giving an update on inflation, which, by the way,
has just gone up. So if you run down inflation from since President
Biden came into office, overall CPI inflation is up seventeen point six percent.
Food to talk about is about thirty four percent. Electricity is up twenty seven
percent. So what's your message to Americans? We're feeling this every day when
they buy and use things. Yeah, so the presence message is very much
he's fighting for American consumers. He is fighting to lower costs. He's fighting.
He's fighting. It's like, really, yeah, with what is putting
We don't we don't even see him. He's not fighting. He's like the
message like his message, this is their messaging, is that the narrative is
that he's fighting and that your life is great and that economically everything's wonderful.
I saw it thread yesterday. It was about gas prices and it was a
guy actually that we used to work with in Indianapolis, and he he's a
liberal, flaming lib and he was talking about how we just can't see it
like the you know, little the stickers. It's like Biden did that when
people put those stickers on gas pumps. It's like the Liberals are so mad
that we can't give Biden credit for the gas prices coming down. And I'm
like, but they're listen, they're still high. They're still high across the
country. So what are we supposed to do, like just pay homage to
this guy that I don't. They're still they still suck. Grocery prices still
suck, energy prices suck everything like prices and inflation across the board is still
it's all bad. It's all really bad. But they it's like they've been
fed this narrative of no, your life is great, and a lot of
these people really believe it, even though the reality that they're they want to
it's like they want so bad to believe something other than what they're actually living
and that and they're gaslighting themselves. Yes, it's by the same off.
It blows me away. How they just it's like they have so much idolatry
in the Democrat Party and in this guy in basically in Biden, who is
just a complete loser. He's just he doesn't even know where he is that
they will do anything and say anything to make it so, yeah, it's
not reality. It's not reality. And so and you're right, like the
prices, I know, even my husband was just saying when we were traveling
recently are I don't even remember where we were, but he was talking about
how he catches himself feeling relief at how lower the gas prices are from where
they were, even though they are still way higher exactly when they were under
Trump. And so he's like he has to remind himself, this isn't good.
This is just less awful than it was before, but it's still awful.
It's like you're punching me in the face, but just not as hard,
right right, Okay, And it gets worse because you know how we've
been providing millions and billions and not trillions, but getting close I think to
a trillion dollars in military aid and equipment aid and pension aid to Ukraine.
They are having some trouble finding all the stuff that we've sent. So we've
sent like a bunch of equipment. They it's unaccount unaccounted for. So we're
talking more than a billion dollars worth of weapons and equipment that we have given
Ukraine cannot be accounted for, is not being tracked. And so John Kirby
was asked to explain this, and let me know if you feel reassured by
his answer, because I do not. There's a new report out from the
Defense IG that says that American defense officials didn't fully count for nearly forty thousand
weapons that the US provided to Ukraine sensitive material small enough to be barder put
on the black market. Does the White House have any reaction, any concern
about that report? Certainly, I'd referred to the Defense Department for a more
detailed reaction, But just let me broadly say we have for many, many
months now been interested and improving accountability over the end use of material that is
provided to Ukraine. We have had that conversation with our Ukrainian partners, and
they share our concerns about accountability. Now, can't like I put an air
tag on it? Oh my god, like, and how hard is this?
If it's if it's so difficult for listen, I lose my phone all
the time. I'm fifty two years old. I'm like, where's my phone.
A lot of times it's like in my pocket. Okay, it's what
happens. But I'm constantly where's my phone? Where are my keys? I
mean, people do this, right, And so my husband for Christmas he
got me those little tiles you know I'm talking about, and he's like,
you're not going to lose your keys anymore, like you can. And so
now I have Why can't we do that with this stuff? With a billion
dollar equipment? Is it that just stick a tile on it? Like?
What the heck? I don't know? And the fact that his answer is,
yeah, we've we've really been meaning to improve our tracking of that or
improve the accountability. What the hell? Yeah? I just wow? Okay.
And so now as we met, now things are ramping up in the
Middle East and now we're actually fighting back against all of these missile attacks that
have been happening on our ships out there, and so there are missile attacks
on the hoodies in Yemen and Molly Hemingway was on with Laura Ingram to talk
about that. The only thing about this clip that makes me crazy is how
much Laura Ingram interrupts her. But other than that, this is important stuff
to know about what's going on. We seemed more of Hunter than Joe Biden's
grace. Well, it was interesting last night. One of the questions that
was asked at the town hall was about concern that people might have that chaos
would return if Trump's and Trump's answer was pointing out some of the chaos that
we're seeing in the country right now, not just domestically but internationally. And
this is a really serious situation. I mean, it's a serious situation that
the houties have been bombing shipping routes that that effects so many things. Something
needs to be done about this. But we've also been in conflict, either
in a proxy way or otherwise with these people for quite some time. Now.
This is the third minute stration, and you want to have good communication
with the American people. You also want to do things in a constitutional manner.
And again, Biden is not the first president to violate what the Constitution
says about how Congress should be involved when launching air strikes. But this is
a good example of why Congress should be involved, because we do need to
think about to the point that what's next. Yeah, well, and also
how we're going to deal with this being involved in a global conflict in multiple
parts when we're broke, Yes, but it matters to people, and how
we do it matters. And it doesn't seem like a lot of our defense
industry or that our defense leadership have been thinking about how to effectively win wars.
They're very good about entering into very since World War Two, right,
they're about having them go for a long time. But we need to know
more about what their strategy is before we've let them do yet another one.
Yeah, so we're reactive, not proactive, which is not dead from a
military perspective at all. So that's where we are right now. So like
the who these Hezebala they're all funded by Iran, right, and so we
it essentially funded them because well, we have to argree with you on that.
It's they don't agree that the money is fungible. So Kirby's like,
no, we didn't. Just because we released six billion dollars doesn't mean that
Iran actually gets it. But what about that palette of cash that Obama gave
Iran like years ago? What about that? Remember that you guys remember that?
I mean it's maybe it didn't start with that, but that certainly didn't
help. And so when I see stuff like this, I'm like, we
helped this, you know, I mean, I it makes me sick to
my stomach. How are we not helping this when we give money to these
jack holes? Stop with that. I know well, And Representative Mike Waltz
is saying, you know, this is that's great that we're finally that we're
responding to these attacks that have been happening over the last several weeks. But
is it enough? Is it? And is it the right target? Hat
hundreds of attacks on American soldiers in Iraq and Syria, and you know what
was Biden's response to hit two empty warehouses. So you know, as of
tonight, I'm going to be skeptical in terms of what they did being militarily
effective. But I guess maybe I should be happy at something. But they're
not getting to the heart of the issue, are they No, they're not
sean And until tonight, our navy ship captains did not have the authority to
shoot at the missiles being launched at them, to shoot at the actual houthies
shooting at them from shore, even when they detected them. So look better
late than never. I'm thrilled to see actually some of the ships, one
of them, the USS Florida take taking this action. The White House is
finally letting them do so. But let's rewind the clock for a second.
Our golf allies under the Trump administration and now told us the hoo Thies were
terrorists. President Trump designated them terrorists. And in his first month in office,
what did Biden do right after he was done stupidly lifting right after he
was done canceling the Keystone pipeline, he lifted the terrorists designation on the Hoothies.
And look at his statement tonight, Iran is not mentioned anywhere. So
look, I'm glad to see this action, better late than never. But
as long as Iran, as Morgan said, is flush with cash to rearm
and refit the terrorists, this is only going to continue. This hardly gives
me any confidence that any of these terror groups that are fully supported by the
number one state sponsor of terror, Iran, are going to be intimidated or
stop what they've been doing. I have no confidence of that, Thank you
both. Now, Yeah, that whole terrorist designation being lifted off of the
Hoothies because they wanted to make sure they had like humanitarian aid get to Yemen.
Or whatever. That's what the excuse was for that. But yet right
wingers will be called terrorists, right, That's that's what this administration does,
That's what Biden does. So we can't call the who thys terrorists, you
guys. But that mom at a school born meeting, who's a right winger,
She's like, totally a terrorist, you guys. This is this is
who this is. They have shown who they are. I mean, look
at them right there, it's in front of us. That's who they are.
Yeah. That other really tall Frankenstein dude that's always in his dressed uniform,
his military uniform, part of the State Department. I think he is
now giving an update about Lloyd Austin's condition, And so first you're gonna hear
about that he is still hospitalized, and then you're gonna hear an exchange between
John Kirby and a reporter about how the main members of the Biden and Stration's
cabinet, the people like Austin who are responsible for our entire country's safety,
how they know where they are at any given time. Your mind is about
to be blown. Secretary Austin remains hospitalized at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center
and is in good condition. According to his doctors. He continues to recover
well and is focused on executing his duties as the Secretary of Defense. I
don't have an update to provide it this time and when he'll be released from
the hospital, but will of course keep you informed. They'll of course,
yeah, of course they're going to keep everything. No, they're not.
They're not going to keep anybody informed. They don't even know themselves. They
have no idea what's going on. Nobody knows, right, I mean,
that's that's why this exchange with Kirby and a reporter I don't know who the
reporter is is pretty extraordinary, and I love the pushback that happens. And
then we can have a discussion about tracking people because they don't apparently do that
with their top brass. Thank you. I will on Monday. You told
one of my colleagues that the Situation Room's ability to track where cabinet members are
is, in your words, generic, limited to the city they're in.
That that seems to be in line with Cold War era capabilities where principles in
the line of succession had to call in their location to the central locator system
that FEMA runs. Are you saying that in twenty twenty four, when I
have a phone in my pocket that can be paying to locate me within a
couple of feet where I get the same kind of capability for my dog if
I want that. We don't have a way of knowing where each person in
the line of succession is without them having to tell the Situation Room or FEMA
or whoever is in charge of tracking their locations. I do not have a
different answer to you today than I did to your colleague on Monday. There
is a process by which cabinet officials and their location is tracked by the Situation
Room. There is a check in every morning where their general location is known
and logged and reported general location. Each of these principles is issued, I
assume is issued a mobile phone. I'm sure you have one Korean one.
Let me stop you right there. We're not going to track the GPS coordinates
on a somebody's mobile phone in the administration, and we're not going to plan
a microchip in their neck like they're a poodle. They check in every day
and we know where they are. And that's and I leave it at that
Secretary Austin, you didn't know where he was. You didn't know where he
was for days, and you're telling me that these daily check ins are are
the best that can be done. We had no indication that he was outside
the DC area, and now it's true. We didn't know he was hospitalized.
And I've said repeatedly that that's a problem that should not happen. It's
like, why would we track our own people. We just track you guys,
right, why would we track our Omiela? Okay, I mean my
kids. We talked about this a depth, you guys before we were in
our pre show. My older kids like stalk us. So if we we
dare to drive out of our little town, what our oldest daughter will call
and be like, where are you guys going? Why are you in Fort
Worth? And we're like geez alyssa, Like we're just here for the day.
We're like, oh my god, like why do you or why is
Gwen our youngestter? Why is Gwen in another city? Has she been abducted?
What's going on? Like, no, she's at a swim meet with
us, Like I mean, it's our older kids are so maniacal about stalking,
and they know exactly where we are at all times. Our whole family
has. You know, we all do the find my phone thing. Yeah,
Life three sixty is amazing and we are huge users of it. Why
is it? Why aren't they doing that? Why is it like so foreign
to Kirby to do this? Why is our government and the big top brass
why are they not doing this? It's ridiculous, It's easy. He's like,
what's an eyePhone? I don't know what an iPhone is. We're all
tracking each other. This is what families do. This is what I'm surprised
that the people at Radio America aren't tracking us, like we're not doing it
for fun, you know, honest, that would be so boring because it
would see me in my house like almost all the time too. That's why
my kids freak out all the time when we go someplace else. They're like,
what are you doing? Why are you Why are you in a different
city? What's wrong? Yeah, this is the thing. They need to
do this, They need to just track them stuff. God, they're so
inept. I am very much looking forward to this coming year's chit chats that
we have with our friend Zach Abraham at Bulwark Capital Management, And what was
the question that we had for him yet. Oh, I know when we
first talked to him, and we don't have our scheduled chats with him schedule
just yet, but during our first one, we've got to ask him if
it's true that Trump's lead in the polls is why the stock market is doing
well. Yes, that's the question that we were going to have for him.
And if President's time to talk, Yeah, presidents have that effect on
the market, right, Yeah, so that'll be a really good question for
him. But if you're somebody who just wants to talk to someone about your
financial situation and your investments, and if you're maybe maybe you have a financial
advisor, but you're sick and tired of that person not reacting to all of
the things that are happening, the different levers that are being pulled in the
market, and how that's affecting your specific portfolio. Zach is a great person
to have a consultation with and you can do that. You can check him
out at know your Risk radio dot com. You can get his free common
sense investing guide, or you can call eight sixty six seven seven nine risk
to get more information about Zach and Bulwark Capital Management. He's phenomenal and he
knows his stuff and he can definitely absolutely help you. So know your Risk
Radio dot com make sure to check him out. Okay, so we're gonna
play a quick clip from Rand Paul, who made an announcement yesterday about an
announcement he's gonna make today. So here's his very short little clip that he
posted on Twitter yesterday. Hey everybody, as you know, I've been pretty
quiet about the presidential race, which is kind of unusual for me. But
tune in tomorrow morning, and I've got something very important to say on the
presidential race. Yes So that was that who he's gonna endorse? And I
don't I don't know because I just looked. Did he say, just look
who is it? Well? I don't know, I know, but but
here's I guess. Here's what the announcement is. He just posted, like
a giant several minute or several threaded tweet thread that he has started a new
website that's that's called never Nicki dot net. And so there's a lot of
tweets about everything that's wrong with Nicki and then all it says is I've been
watching the GOP primary closely for a while now, and I like various aspects
of several candidates, Republicans like Trump, DeSantis, and vivequ And I'm interested
in the ideas of some independence too, such as Robert Kennedy Junior. But
the main announcement is that there's a new website called never Nicki dot Net.
Okay, so he so she is probably connect or he believes she is connected
with like more deep state ideology, deep ideology. And also you know Democrats
love her, so yeah, yikes, because he's so libertarian. That's why
I was very curious just to see, you know, who he was going
to align himself with. But obviously he's not aligning himself with anybody. He's
just saying, don't pick Nicky, right, So like anybody, but Nicki,
I guess, is his choice right now, Never Nikki, which is
interesting. Interesting, So she's the deep state persons, so yeah, so
he is not making that a pick. There was so much speculation, like
so many people were like, inside sources are saying he is totally endorsing Trump,
and then other people were like, no, he's gonna endorse RFK Junior.
I mean, I was like, I have no idea, yeah,
but no idea. Now I can't wait to see what Nicki says in response,
because man, oh, she's gonna can't wait to be like rand Paul
lies do dot com. I started a new West site website. Yeah,
my god, Ben Shapiro has made his endorsement, and I have that little
clip right here. Let's just be clear about this. If the primaries were
all today, I would vote Rono Santas. I would vote for him.
He's the best Florida governor. He is the best governor in America. He
is the most consistently conservative person in the race. He is an incredibly competent
executive. He knows how to actually run the levers of power and make sure
things happen, not just blow viate. I would vote for him in a
primer. So there's Ben's endorsement DeSantis, right, And of course that is
in stark contrast to his colleague Candace Owens, who is on not only endorsing
vivig Ramaswami, but on the campaign trail with him. And they really there
was a representative from Iowa with them on the tour bus yesterday and they released
this little video on the bus with my friends Steve King, Candace Owens,
right, we're excited for Scott County. We're in the eastern Iowa. He
got the snow out there, so things are running a little bit slower than
usual, but things are gonna be great. Actually, I got a lot
of people coming out wait for us, and I think we're gonna a little
have the media have a little bit of fun with this combination of people on
the road. You know. I think it's good. Yeah, I think
it's good. I think we can give him a little bit of a fun
field that I think is a fascinating conversation between YouTube. I don't know if
my fit on our America's aside of asm and I feel like I do.
Yeah, I think you all right, guys, where to keep the day
going? That's true. People are people on the right who are true conservatives
are apparently allowed to have different picks. They is primary who would have thought,
I know, based on some of the comments I get from our audience,
I apparently am not allowed to do that. But I also have a
pick, and right now it is not Trump for reasons that I've given many
many times. One of the things that we said yesterday when we talked about
his town hall, was that he was he was engaged in some serious gaslighting
when it comes to trying to pin like being a fan of Fauci and Florida
shutting down on DeSantis. So he's changing the script quite a bit. And
so for Trump supporters out there, and I do not begrudge you your choice,
like you go support Trump all you want, you have that right,
and I don't begrudg you at all. And I understand it because Trump did
a lot of really fantastic things, but that doesn't mean that you can just
forgive or look away from when he's gaslighting America, which he absolutely did in
that town hall. And so there was a montage put together. I don't
remember who even did this. Maybe it was Dave Rubin, I'm not sure.
But when he tried to say that he never shut the country down,
I hope that even his supporters recognize that as a big fat lie, because
not only did he shut us down, he bragged about it lots of times
after that. Would you ever allow a shut down in the future talking about
a COVID shutdown? Correct, No, I wouldn't and I never did.
We did the right thing. We closed the country down. Could have kept
it open, and I could have done what some countries are doing. I
had to shut it down, or we did the right thing. Florida did
shutdown, Run to Sanctus, shut down. We're in a play school of
Florida, and we have a great governor. Great governor knows exactly what he's
doing. Terrific job. He just announced that the schools will be open.
The Governor's done a great job. Florida is down, low down with the
China iron. He shut his stayed down very violently, and you're open and
you didn't close, and you're It's just amazing. I just glad one of
the greatest governors in our country. And I know a lot of good ones,
and I can tell you there's some really bad ones too, but this
is a great one. Governor Ron DeSantis. I mean, you know,
can we just not can we just like own? And that's the one trouble
I've had with him is that he just won't own any of his mistakes because
if he said, man, I shut down, I really regret it.
I regret listening to that little elf man who said that everything was going crazy
and that we should shut down. Everybody need to get vaccinated. But he
won't, and I don't know why he won't, and so to me,
it's huge gaslighting. And I was I sometimes you guys in the audience make
me feel crazy for feeling the way that I do. And so then I
go back out to some some other sources and I'm like, Okay, I'm
not crazy. There's a guy from The Blaze named Pat Gray who does a
podcast or radio show, and he experienced the same level of just like what
is even happening moment during the Trump town hall, to the point where he
screamed like a girl when when Trump tried to pin this Fauci love on Desantas
and it just cracked me up. The screaming, oh my god, your
big doctor Fauci fan. And nobody wants to thumble that. I say it
every time. This can't stand. I don't again. I don't mean to
piss off Trump supporters. Let's go for it. How's about time? How
can you not call him out on that? It's impossible. It's impossible not
to call him out on that. Does he You are the ones who kept
him, promoted him, left him in there, followed his advice for a
year. Yeah, you can't be serious that you're trying to pin Anthony Falci
on Ron DeSantis. So technically, come on, Trump supporters, I want
to hear from you. Anthony Fauci was the president of the United That's how
I felt. Yeah, I mean, I know, I get it the
COVID Listen when I get it, the COVID stuff. I wish he would
do that too. I get it would be so easy, and it would
It would gain him so much credibility on that issue. It wouldn't be like
he owned it because I don't blame him for what he did. Well was
going on. Well, the Trump people would would love him no matter what,
So it's not going to change the Trump people's minds at all. But
the people who are sort of like on the fence, people like you,
would be more innant with them. So he told me he would gain more
people. It would actually be to his benefit if he would do something like
that, honestly, because people who love him are I love him no matter
what. They will go to the ends of the earth for him. But
yeah, but the people who are on the fence are just kind of like,
you know what. That kind of sucks that he did that. Yeah,
it would show a little bit of humanity. It would show that he
like he has a little bit of you know, I can look in word
and go, yeah, I can say sorry once in a while, or
I canet my god. It's like you can do that. You can look
at it and go that guy was a total jerk. Anthony Fauci was wrong.
I would listen to the experts for the first six to twelve months,
and then you know what, I decided not to do that anymore. People
do that in leadership may change course, it happens all the time. I
completely agree. Now in his defense, he is getting so utterly screwed in
this whole New York hearing, Like the whole thing about the valuation of mar
A Lago and his businesses and his properties. This is the most bullshit case
that has ever been brought against anybody ever, And it makes me rage on
his behalf, Like it makes me insane with rage that that Letitia James' attorney
is trying to suggest that mar A Lago is only worth twenty five million dollars.
What in insanity is even that? Like, I cannot even believe it.
So Alena Haba was on I don't even remember which show at this point,
but she was on yesterday talk about some of the tie backs between Letitia
James and the White Biden's White House, and it is this is just so
deeply unfair. I mean on every level. I just I and I cannot
believe how much worse it gets, and she can't believe it. And you
know it's bad when she's right next to Trump, side by side every day
and she's like, I continue to be surprised it's back with us, Alena,
great to have you. Let me see if I have this straight here.
So you have the Attorney General in New York meeting with the Biden White
House and White House Council, I assume or I don't know who? Do
we know who? How many occasions have you identified she was in the Biden
White House? And what was the timeframe of that? Sure we saw that
there was a meeting in August, the month or two right before they filed
their complaint, and there was another meeting later in the midst of our litigation
on the Attorney General's claim. So that is twice confirmed. I believe.
There are also reports that she had been at Miss Kamala Harris's home. This
is not normal. She is a New York Attorney General voted by the New
York constituents, and the only thing they all have in common is the Soros
backing. I cannot understand why she would have cause in the middle of a
trial to go see the White House and the Biden administration, let alone the
top. One of the records said that they met on the front lawn.
I can't believe what I'm seeing. I really can't. And I am with
you, Sean, reporting with you every day. I am in the weeds,
and I still am shocked. They cease to amaze me. This is
unbelievable. I thought Georgia was bad, and then today I have to sit
in court and get no notice that this person has now weaponized her, which
we already knew, but now that she's coordinating as well with the Biden administration,
what was she there for coffee? We don't believe it anymore. Yeah,
and somebody said it the word it's collusion. That's what this is.
Absolutely positively is, without without a doubt, is what this is. Yeah,
and then Biden will play dumb and be like, oh, I have
nothing to do with this, I don't know what's going on. Bullshit.
It is such a totally Even even Ellie Honig, I think that's his name
from CNN. Even he knows what's up because he reminds us about what she
freaking campaigned on. Look at this with doing they got paid back. But
it is a fact that Latitia James, as Paula Reid said, Latitia James
campaign for attorney general in twenty eighteen, specifically on a promise to vote for
me and I'll get Donald Trump. That's not something she said once. She
said it dozens of times. She said it in writing. She fundraised off
it, and she wasn't even specific. She didn't say I'll get him for
a inflating his assets. At one point, she said he could be indicted
for money wandering. At one point, she said the day after she was
elected, she said, and I quote, we're definitely going to sue his
ass. He'll know my name. And when you make statements like that,
how can you say there's no political angle to this. You can maybe say
the facts are there, but it's also political. That's le tissue James's own
doing. So what if and that's CNN, Yeah, that's CNN, say
thank you guys. Yeah, I mean, it's blatantly obvious what's happening here?
And then Trump goes in there and he's like, listen, I would
really like to spend some time at the Malaney because her mother just died.
And the judge who is unbelieved. Oh my god, so bious, so
disgusting. I mean you look on me. Yeah, he's so creepy.
It just is gross. That guy freaks me out. He's like, no,
no, you can't do that, Denied. It's just yeah, I
mean the whole they hate him, they hate him personally. She's going after
him personally. They have colluded to go after him personally. It's unheard of.
I mean, it's just a political witch hunt. That's exactly what this
is. Everybody knows it. So this last clip in this group is of
Taylor Sheridan, who is the creator of Yellowstone and all of it's offshoots and
all of them. You are an avid, avid watcher of them. He
was on with Joe Rogan and they had a huge, obviously a three hour
conversation about all kinds of topics, but is one of those topics was the
politicization, the weaponry of politics when it comes to stuff like this and how
it can impact the primaries. And here is that little clip and decisions made.
Now we sit here and break rules that are clearly established in a constitution
which has existed for a couple hundred years and held this place together. When
we start manipulating that document to maintain relevance for a very short term goal for
a politician or for one specific cause, whatever that cause is, we start
manipulating that and abandoning the rule of law. When we start doing that thirty
years from now, that benchmark is what's going to be used against all the
people that pushed it right now. That's what scares me right now about all
this talk about primaries, about limiting people from primaries. So they're saying that
many states have chosen to only have Joe Biden to vote for in the primary.
That sounds here's like such a bad idea. This is my point.
People could think of dald Trump, however they want to think of Donald Trump.
It doesn't really matter who the individual is. A court in Colorado is
going to essentially make a decision based upon a trial that has not happened yet.
In other words, they're basically saying he's guilty of something that he hasn't
been tried for, and therefore they're removing him from a ballot that's so affed
up. Yeah, it's completely aft up, it's completely an American, it's
unconstitutional. So he's right, he's absolutely right in that. Yeah, it's
weird on such a downward spiral right now. It completely freaks me out.
From my kids. From my kids, it worries me because it's we're just
letting it happen, you know. And people will say that they're doing this
under the guise of saving democracy, when in fact they're destroying our constitutional republic.
That's what they're doing, and they just have no idea what they're doing.
I don't think they I think they think that they want power so badly
they're going to do everything they can to get it, and in the process
they're going to destroy it. They're already destroying us. I mean we see
it in almost every aspect of the world right now, every aspect, right.
Yeah, So it is kind of funny to the point that was made
earlier about how you know, people are always like, well, if Trump
is in office, there's just going to be complete chaos as opposed to what
Yeah, we're already happening. We're already complete chaos. Yeah, it's insane
and on top of that. Of course, we have this whole illegal immigration
problem. And there was some clown, mister Chen who was testifying in front
of a House committee yesterday. There was I can't remember the representative Tiffany is
who is questioning him. This clown is actually saying, it's in our best
interest, all of our best interests, to pay as taxpayers for lawyers for
every single illegal immigrant. This is the exchange. Should should everyone get an
attorney? That's what I heard in your testimony. Anyone that comes to our
border, they should get an attorney. Is that right? So legal representation
has been shown to greatly improve both the fairness of the system and the efficiency
if you have a lawyer, that the American taxpayers should pay for the lawyers.
Also, not only should they pay for the hospitals, not only should
they pay for the schools, Not only should they pay the snap benefits,
they should also pay for the lawyers to allow them, as people from outside
the United States to be able to come into America. Yeah, and since
what is our system freaking fair? Dude? What do tax break? What
do tax payers get a break from all this bull crap? Because we pay
for everything, and we've been saying for years like eventually that the takers are
going to outweigh the makers, And it's happening right now. It's happening right.
I was waiting. I was like, when is it going to happen?
When we first started our site, like fourteen fifteen years ago, I
was like, that's gonna We've said that they're gonna outweigh us. When is
that going to happen. It's happening right now. We're seeing it happen now.
When you see illegals taking over our schools for a day and the government
say they're there, the illegals are going to take over, your kids need
to stay home for the day. There will be no learning today. Homes
are next, you guys, Homes are next. I just had to said
it out loud. He's actually suggesting if you have a private residence with an
extra room, and right now it's he's asking, but at some point he's
going to tell him. Right, they're gonna be telling. And you know
what, Liberals go first, exactly. The people want a sanctuary city.
Yes, is on you. You voted for this garbage, You go first.
You guys, look at the cards and see who they voted for.
Put the illegals in their homes first, because they're not coming into my house.
Yeah, exactly, I'm about to give you guys the biggest treat ever.
So I was telling Daisy that I learned about this man who I was
not familiar with yesterday because there were some clips of his going around on socials
yesterday, and I was like, who is that fine looking fella? So
I am not a person who thinks Jason Momoa is attractive. He's way too
Neanderthally for me personal preference. I'm not judging if you think he's hot.
I know a lot of women think he's hot. He's just way too I
don't know, monstrous for me. You don't like the beef beefy thing,
Yeah, super beefy like and just kind of Neanderthally. But this guy is
like on the same plane of attractiveness, Like he's the same sort of appearance,
also beefy. Former Air Force Academy graduate, he was active military,
flew F fifteens and then was also in Space Force. But then saw what
was happening to our conversation earlier, what was happening to the military being weakened
by DEI, by CRT, by all of this nonsense right by all the
woke nonsense. He wrote a book about it and then was kicked out of
the military without a pension. He lost his position because of it, because
of this book, and so now he's a public speaker, and he testified
in front of a congressional committee yesterday about the wokeness of the military and he
was awesome to look at and to listen to. His name is Matt Lohmeyer.
I hope that we can get him on our show because I would try
to keep it together for that very very nice, good fella just is a
phenomenal So I've got two clips of him to share. You're going to love
love this guy. I do want to make one additional point, if I
may, that the general has just explained that he never saw some critical race
theory in his time at West Point or in his lengthy, honorable military career.
In doing research for my book that got me fired, I found that
West Point cadets who had recently graduated, these are impressive people, white,
clearly leftist in their political worldview, had produced a forty page policy proposal.
Is what it was called, that I consider a communist's creed anti American race
bating, accusing leaders at West Point of failing the American people, criticizing West
Point as an institution for racism, criticizing them for failing the army, and
that they would continue to fail the army. What I found in that document
is that this general's work is quoted throughout the entire forty pages. So you
can't say that you've never been exposed to critical race theory when a bunch of
left wing, Marxist leaning students attack the West Point Military Academy relying on your
work. And so I'd be curious to find out if they consulted with him
in the production of that forty page policy proposal to topple statues at West Point
to rename buildings. When that kind of invitation came to me as a commander
to rename streets and buildings, everyone at the base was allowed to populate the
Excel spreadsheet that came to it as a tasker from the Pentagon, and I
saw George Washington's name on that list. Because ideology that poisons the mind doesn't
disambiguit between racists, evil men, and good men and hatreots. What they
did is they said he is a founder, he's white. I hate him
and we'd like to remove his name from buildings in streets. This is the
kind of thing that ideology does to the military. It divides people. And
the best evidence we've seen so far, excuse me ten more seconds, is
the recent testimony from president university presidents who tried to excuse and contextualize genocidal rhetoric.
And what CRT diversity equity and inclusion mandates and Marxist ideology do to a
university president or to the Chinese pla, they will do to an American service
member. Got that guy, Yeah, he is fine. I had a
lot of fine. But this is the thing. Then our American military kicked
him out without a pension. That's the kind of person they're kicking. That
man that you just saw speaking reason and truth. Mm hmm. They kicked
him out of the military. And then they have people like I don't know,
like Rachel Levine in it propping that, uh, this is this is
our military now. But that's why you should not feel one confident about our
military. But then get rid of that guy. We're getting rid of that
guy who's a complete badass, and we're but we can't have him in the
military. Yeah. But then now that we're you know, like I don't
know, having military conflict with the Huthis and basically I don't know. Basically
I ran, you know what it's do you feel confident? Because guys like
that are getting kicked out because oh my god, feel bads. You guys
feel bads and diversity and equity and inclusion, and a whole bunch of guys
like that also got kicked out for not taking the backs right, So we
look on so many really really good members of the military over stupid crap.
And so I love this next clip of him because he speaks, he's speaking
directly at the members of the committee and telling them they have no idea what
the hell they're talking about, and they haven't served, and they don't They
just don't know. And it's so delicious again to watch and to hear.
One point that the General made with which I disagree is that diversity is our
strength. I don't think there's any evidence for that, but definitions matter,
words matter, and we're losing touch with this. I would reject the notion
that diversity is our strength based on DEI definitions of diversity, equity, and
inclusion, merit bae. Okay, I'm going to get away from that,
because if we're trying to find a unity of understanding, let me say this,
skill and performance matter in the military if you'd like to deter conflict and
win our nations wars. Period. As a commander in the military, I
had a black colonel fly across the country to promote me to lieutenant colonel because
I love the hell out of the guy and respect his views on the Federalist
papers which he was teaching me after work hours, and because he was the
best leader I've ever worked with. The best airmen that I had working for
me incidentally, was a transgender airman. So don't bullshit me and say that
you think you know what you're talking about. You've never served, you don't
understand how this works. We care about performance in the military. Period.
You don't know what you're talking about. Most of the people in this room
don't know what they're talking about. We need lethality in the military period.
All of the stuff you guys talk about, the men and women in uniform
don't think about. They go play call of duty at night after they learn
their mission and execute that mission. Period, they don't know what you're talking
about. They don't know what you're voting on, they don't care about your
sexual preference, they don't care what you look like, and they don't care
what the person next to them looks like. Period. I'm a citizen of
this country and I can dislike you and criticize you all I want here,
but our men and women in uniform cannot. And so I speak on their
behalf when I say lethality matters, merit based selection and promotions matter, and
your ideology doesn't matter one bit. And we need to identify principles which will
preserve our union and preserve the unity of the United States military. If we
do not, we'll lose that union. Yeah, we're not picking. We're
not picking those principles. We're not picking the principles right now, and we
are losing our union. I need a cigarette, I know. Are you
okay? And I don't smet okay? Box? Oh yeah yeah yeah,
Zablan please make a note of it. We need Matt Lomyer, yes,
on our deep dive Matt Lomyer, Yeah, but I uh, I totally
agree with him though. But we're the union is crumbling because we're not picking
those policies. We're doing the opposite of what we should be doing. You
guys, he's so right. Everybody needs to hear this guy. But we
need to do the things we need action. I do appreciate everything that he's
doing, but man, we need to change course. Yesterday, I know
for real, we absolutely do. Anyway, I forgot at the beginning of
the show that I wanted you to talk about watermelons. So can we do
that before we get to the little clip I have before doubldies. Yeah,
yesterday I was looking at Daily Mail or whatever, and I saw an article
about Jennifer Anderson's not Jennifer Aniston, I'm sorry, Jennifer Gardner's daughter Violet I
believe her name is, and she's always mass she can never see her face.
She looks exactly like her mother, though it's really weird. She's one
of those I'm assuming she's like some liberal kid that lives in LA But she
was spotted wearing a watermelon sweatshirt, a watermelon sweater, and so I was
like, what does this melon think? So she was called out for it.
Apparently that is a symbol that supports Palestine, the Free Palestine movement.
I did not know that I started doing some research, and it is.
It is so if you are looking at any sort of you know, news
story or whatever that has to do with that the Israel Palestine conflict, and
you see a bunch of like, you know, people commenting with a bunch
of watermelons. The watermelon is a symbol for the Palestinian flag. It has
the same colors, same shape as Israel looks like right right. I didn't
know that. I read that Palestine apparently they grow watermelons there. I didn't
know that anyways, it's it is a symbol and some sort of a you
know, a free Palestine like thing for people who are in that movement.
So if you see that, that's what that means. I didn't I was
yesterday years old when I learned that. I didn't tell it to me.
I didn't know that either. This is the first time of it, and
so I figured we'd passed that along to you guys if you didn't know that.
But the watermelon is a thing that she obviously is, you know,
free Palestine girl. Her mother may want to educate her, but apparently that
family is too like Casey Affleck, who is her uncle, is Ben Affleck's
brother's right. Yeah, I have seen him walking around with free Palestine stuff
on and stuff like that too. So I mean, just a bunch of
uneducated weirdos in Hollywood. But it doesn't surprise me because she probably goes to
some hoity toity la school where this is what they're taught. Yeah, h
so watch for the watermelons. Well now you'll know what they mean. So
let's bring it in, bringing in, and you guys have a fantastic weekend.
We will talk to you on Monday. Everybody
