WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:03.919 This is Gary and Shannon, and you're listening to KFI AM six forty, 2 00:00:03.919 --> 00:00:08.000 the Gary and Shannon Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. And e bikes 3 00:00:08.160 --> 00:00:12.359 have doubled every year since twenty seventeen, more than twenty three thousand injuries in 4 00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:16.600 twenty twenty two alone. Studies authors say the figures point to a need for 5 00:00:16.719 --> 00:00:22.719 speed and safety regulations. ABC's Jim Ryan says that includes a requirement that writers 6 00:00:22.719 --> 00:00:27.760 wear helmets. The study was published in the journal Jama Network. A Russian 7 00:00:27.760 --> 00:00:32.200 born man has been detained in France on suspicion of planning to destabilize There was 8 00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:34.679 a great article I think we're going to get to it in swamp Watch. 9 00:00:34.840 --> 00:00:38.880 You think this year is crazy like twenty twenty four, and the years leading 10 00:00:38.920 --> 00:00:43.840 up to this have been just nuts politically speaking, But nineteen sixty eight wasn't. 11 00:00:44.840 --> 00:00:47.920 It was banana. It was just as bananas. I mean, we 12 00:00:47.960 --> 00:00:51.640 think about this because for the vast majority of us, we weren't alive in 13 00:00:51.719 --> 00:00:54.759 nineteen sixty eight, so it's hard for us to kind of wrap our heads 14 00:00:54.759 --> 00:00:59.920 around what it is without saying I learned in history yousic alone in nineteen sixty 15 00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:04.159 Yate was phenomenal, But there have been There's been election site event after event. 16 00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:07.519 Yes, I mean, if you just looked at sixty eight, there's 17 00:01:07.519 --> 00:01:14.159 a couple of assassinate, literal assassinations in the course of the in the course 18 00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:19.879 of the election cycle that absolutely altered the fabric of not just the not just 19 00:01:19.959 --> 00:01:23.040 that election cycle, but the country as a whole. So we'll talk about 20 00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:26.159 it. The Secret Service telling Trump not to hold any outdoor rallies or that 21 00:01:26.239 --> 00:01:33.640 he shouldn't is not helping the conspiracy theory. Problem of this was Biden's secret 22 00:01:33.799 --> 00:01:38.159 Service that let this bullet fly by. Yeah, him then now trying to 23 00:01:38.319 --> 00:01:44.239 thwart campaigning is a bad look. It's a it's a weird do your job 24 00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:48.920 about do your job, very weird. The testimony about that assassination attempt continues. 25 00:01:48.959 --> 00:01:53.120 Actually, FBI Director Christopher Ray is going before the is currently before the 26 00:01:53.120 --> 00:01:57.200 House Judiciary Committee. We'll talk more about that and play some sound from what 27 00:01:57.280 --> 00:02:04.599 he has been saying. Investigation and he's not concentrating on that aspect, which 28 00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:07.439 is, how did the Secret Service allow this guy to get where he was 29 00:02:07.480 --> 00:02:12.840 and peel off eight shots? His investigation or his agency's investigation is all about 30 00:02:13.039 --> 00:02:17.560 who this guy was, how he did what he did, separate from what 31 00:02:17.800 --> 00:02:22.280 was going on. What holes did the Secret Service have that needed to be 32 00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:25.879 filled? So Mike Johnson is essentially ordering the code red. He had a 33 00:02:25.919 --> 00:02:31.039 closed door meeting of House Republicans to tell them no, and I'm using the 34 00:02:31.439 --> 00:02:38.800 language here, no overt racist and sexist attacks against Kamala Harris. Don't do 35 00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:44.280 this. Nothing overt, So he can say, so they can say, 36 00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:50.000 there was this warning. In the meantime, take your baby shots. Well 37 00:02:50.080 --> 00:02:55.120 are you? They're set up for their set up for failure because a lot 38 00:02:55.120 --> 00:03:00.400 of times, unless you're very specific about a PAS see that you don't like 39 00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:07.120 that the Kamala Harris holds, you're going to be accused of being either sexist 40 00:03:07.240 --> 00:03:10.360 or racist, and probably both. So I think he's I think it's a 41 00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:14.120 smart move on his part to say, hey, just so you know, 42 00:03:15.080 --> 00:03:17.439 you have to be a little bit more nuanced in your attacks on this one. 43 00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:22.159 So he's covering his own ass. True. Yeah, yeah, he's 44 00:03:22.199 --> 00:03:27.879 also said this is interesting. Mike Johnson has also said if you disrupt Benjamin 45 00:03:27.919 --> 00:03:31.240 Netanyah, who's speech today before a Joint Session of Congress, he may have 46 00:03:31.400 --> 00:03:37.199 you arrested. I guess he's the in terms of security. He's the guy 47 00:03:37.240 --> 00:03:40.159 who is the buck stops here guy. He is the Kimberly cheatle of a 48 00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:46.759 joint session of Congress in that I don't think he's gonna completely bunk it up 49 00:03:46.800 --> 00:03:53.000 like she did. But he's the one who could have people taken out of 50 00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:57.879 the chamber for when Benjamin Netanyah who addresses Congress. Hey, that's supposed to 51 00:03:57.919 --> 00:04:00.479 happen in about eleven o'clock hour time too. What star for the Republicans? 52 00:04:00.599 --> 00:04:04.840 Mike Johnson, Yeah, I feel like he took the speaker seat and has 53 00:04:04.960 --> 00:04:10.199 just used it. He has used the platform well in terms of getting his 54 00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:15.240 name out there and being a powerbroker. Don't forget he didn't. He didn't 55 00:04:15.240 --> 00:04:18.680 do so without criticism. There were still people on the right Marjorie Taylor Green 56 00:04:18.759 --> 00:04:23.639 and Matt Gates and all these people who still wanted him out because of the 57 00:04:23.639 --> 00:04:27.160 deal that he struck. Well, you're talking about crazy people there, but 58 00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:30.360 they but they're crazy people in Congress, I mean crazy people with a certain 59 00:04:30.399 --> 00:04:38.480 amount of power. So net Yahoo is the subject of serious protests that are 60 00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:43.439 currently going on in Washington. D c Also, they have been disruptive up 61 00:04:43.480 --> 00:04:46.600 and down the Capitol Mall to have their voices heard. Both pro Israel and 62 00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:55.160 pro Palestinian are out there and they are either upset that net Yahoo is being 63 00:04:55.160 --> 00:04:59.439 given an audience with Congress, also with the President and Vice President. We 64 00:04:59.519 --> 00:05:02.000 believe Tom and then he's going to meet with former President Trump on Friday. 65 00:05:02.399 --> 00:05:06.759 In fact, there were people who broke into and broke into got into how's 66 00:05:06.800 --> 00:05:12.800 that the Watergate hotel where he is staying, where Natanyahu is staying, and 67 00:05:12.879 --> 00:05:20.319 released thousands, hundreds of thousands of crickets and maggots and other bugs inside the 68 00:05:20.360 --> 00:05:25.439 Watergate Hotel, not to mention the fact that they were pulling the fire alarm 69 00:05:25.759 --> 00:05:30.639 over and over and over again all night long trying to disrupt him. That's 70 00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:33.759 like when you go to an away game with the Chargers. Yeah, my 71 00:05:33.839 --> 00:05:39.040 god, the alarms that go off seriously. Oh yeah, Well, because 72 00:05:39.079 --> 00:05:44.560 fans from the home team will to disrupt you, they get they get ignored 73 00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:49.519 a lot of the time. Speaking of the Chargers training camp today, Jim 74 00:05:49.560 --> 00:05:54.519 Harbaugh has arrived. Jim Harbaugh, we now know listens to the show, 75 00:05:54.879 --> 00:06:00.240 specifically listened to the show yesterday because of the inspirational video he dropped last night, 76 00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:02.879 which made mention of one of the topics of yesterday, which was crazy, 77 00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:09.759 how that was a very specific thing, a specific So I think what 78 00:06:09.800 --> 00:06:13.519 it is is it's his like nod to me, like, hey, it's 79 00:06:13.560 --> 00:06:15.600 okay to be crazy, Okay to be crazy. I see you, I 80 00:06:15.680 --> 00:06:23.079 got you. I just hope he doesn't smack your shoulder pads the way you 81 00:06:23.160 --> 00:06:27.079 smacked mine, pretending that I I want that's what I want. You want 82 00:06:27.160 --> 00:06:29.600 him to get you in the game. Yeah, grab you right by that 83 00:06:29.639 --> 00:06:34.000 face mask. Yes, scream and something inspirational at you. Yes. Okay. 84 00:06:36.120 --> 00:06:40.560 We're approaching football season, so we're ramping up here. We're getting the 85 00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:46.000 adrenaline going. FBI Director Christopher Ray says that that shooter rigged multiple explosive devices 86 00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:50.360 to blow up had a remote transmitter at that rally. He's in front of 87 00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:56.759 a congressional committee about that shooting. He says law enforcement agencies were covered three 88 00:06:56.800 --> 00:07:01.800 bombs, presumably set up by the the shooter, two in his car, 89 00:07:01.959 --> 00:07:05.360 one in his home, all with the ability to be detonated remotely. There 90 00:07:05.360 --> 00:07:10.040 were receivers at the scene for two of the devices, and he had a 91 00:07:10.079 --> 00:07:14.000 transmitter to detonate them. Yeah, it's so funny. He was describing them 92 00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:17.079 as not really super sophisticated, but about what they would expect. And I 93 00:07:17.199 --> 00:07:23.600 thought, would would you expect bombs in someone's car as they're attending a rally 94 00:07:23.639 --> 00:07:29.360 for a presidential candidate. But new Pole says that Georgia is in play. 95 00:07:29.519 --> 00:07:33.680 This is a Landmark Communications poll four hundred likely voters in Georgia that was conducted 96 00:07:34.000 --> 00:07:39.680 just Monday, and it says the difference between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris is 97 00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:44.439 well within the five percent margin of error, which seems pretty sizable. Largely, 98 00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:48.079 but Trump has a forty five point eight percent, about a percent and 99 00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:51.279 a half above Harris, and that would be in a six way race. 100 00:07:51.879 --> 00:07:56.079 When you do when you take it down to just a two person race, 101 00:07:57.160 --> 00:08:01.480 the lead is a little bit larger. The President will address the nation tonight 102 00:08:01.560 --> 00:08:07.879 five o'clock hour time, so by about six thirty our time, you'll have 103 00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:11.240 all the twenty five twenty fifth Amendment talk, probably right. Yeah, I 104 00:08:11.240 --> 00:08:16.240 don't know if his voice sounds anything like it did on that phone call that 105 00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:20.240 he made. It's not it's not going to be pretty okay, but speaking 106 00:08:20.279 --> 00:08:24.199 of, there's been a lot of talk about the money that has been raised 107 00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:31.680 by the now Harris for President campaign and the ninety plus million dollars that would 108 00:08:31.680 --> 00:08:37.799 go from Joe Biden's campaign war chest to her campaign war chest simply by changing 109 00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:45.039 the name of the campaign. The Federal Elections Commission has now gotten a complaint 110 00:08:45.120 --> 00:08:50.519 filed by the Trump Campaigns General counsel David Warrington argues that transferring that ninety one 111 00:08:50.600 --> 00:08:56.000 point five million dollars would amount to little more than a thinly veiled excessive contribution 112 00:08:56.159 --> 00:09:01.559 from one presidential candidate to another, and he says that this would be the 113 00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:07.399 biggest violation in the history of the FEC, sorry the Federal Election Campaign Act 114 00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:11.960 of nineteen seventy one. This seems all for not. There are still issues 115 00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:18.320 like this with the FEC going back to the twenty sixteen election. This is 116 00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:20.720 not going to be something that's decided in time, certainly not in time for 117 00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:24.000 them to burn through that cash. And it also, I think is a 118 00:09:24.039 --> 00:09:31.799 bad look because it makes them look like they're worried. But the this is 119 00:09:31.840 --> 00:09:33.919 the playbook. But this is to throw stuff at the wall to see what 120 00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:39.480 legally sticks and what doesn't. I mean, they were also talking to Mike 121 00:09:39.519 --> 00:09:43.799 Johnson. Speaker Mike Johnson was also talking about the potential for there to be 122 00:09:43.879 --> 00:09:48.000 legal challenges to putting Kamala Harris's name on the ballot right now, and again 123 00:09:48.519 --> 00:09:56.559 the rules when it comes to how you change a candidate, especially before a 124 00:09:56.600 --> 00:10:01.240 nomination. I mean, they're not even Joe Biden is not been nominated yet. 125 00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:05.200 That's the thing is. It's not he does have enough or had enough 126 00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:09.080 delegates that he was the presumptive nominee. But there is a process that each 127 00:10:09.080 --> 00:10:13.000 of these parties go through, and they have different rules for it, but 128 00:10:13.080 --> 00:10:16.480 there's a process that the party sets up for them to do. He's not 129 00:10:16.639 --> 00:10:20.600 the nominee. He was not the nominee when he dropped out, So there's 130 00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:24.360 a lot more flexibility that Democrats have. Yeah, I completely agree with the 131 00:10:24.480 --> 00:10:28.759 argument that they did not turn it over to their Democratic voters and say, 132 00:10:28.759 --> 00:10:33.440 okay, he's out, now what he want to do? They just kind 133 00:10:33.440 --> 00:10:37.159 of assumed the Kamala Harris he got the or she got the endorsement from Joe 134 00:10:37.159 --> 00:10:41.360 Biden and then started piling up these endorsements from others. The delegates all came 135 00:10:41.399 --> 00:10:46.879 in they all coalesced behind her, But that's still not the democracy that we 136 00:10:46.960 --> 00:10:50.240 all think of. We think of it as we leave it to the people 137 00:10:50.279 --> 00:10:54.320 and the people get to decide. I know we're a constitutional republic, I 138 00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:58.440 get it, but in general, the small deed democracy that everybody likes to 139 00:10:58.440 --> 00:11:01.200 talk about, that's kind of the way we think of it. This is 140 00:11:01.240 --> 00:11:05.360 not that. This is party politics the way it's played out, and we've 141 00:11:05.399 --> 00:11:09.279 all bought into it, so it's not like we can be surprised by the 142 00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:13.600 fact that the party still gets to choose who the nominee is going to be. 143 00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:18.799 Did you read the story about R. F. Kennedy about he went 144 00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:24.120 to Trump after the assassination attempt or is I like to say, the attempted 145 00:11:24.159 --> 00:11:30.000 assassination attempt and asked for a job in exchange for his endorsement and said he 146 00:11:30.039 --> 00:11:33.039 wanted to be like the health czar in the cabinet. I did hear rumors 147 00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:35.159 of that, but again, this is one of those things that I don't 148 00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:39.960 even know where to He's RF case is he never asked that and never asked, 149 00:11:39.960 --> 00:11:43.200 and that the Trump campaign was like, eh no, yeah, I 150 00:11:43.279 --> 00:11:46.519 know, both of them denied whatever conversation, but we heard the conversation. 151 00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:50.679 Remember that was part of the phone call that leaked. I believe that showed 152 00:11:50.720 --> 00:11:58.000 him talking to him, According to a Harris campaign spokesperson, They responded to 153 00:11:58.039 --> 00:12:03.200 this FEC comp in a statement saying Republicans may be jealous that Democrats are energized, 154 00:12:03.559 --> 00:12:09.000 but these baseless legal claims will only distract them while we sign up volunteers, 155 00:12:09.039 --> 00:12:11.320 talk to voters and win this selection. And they said, so far 156 00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:15.879 they've raised one hundred million dollars in the first thirty six hours and have signed 157 00:12:15.919 --> 00:12:18.919 up fifty eight thousand volunteers. One specific issue about this that I have not 158 00:12:20.080 --> 00:12:31.080 yet seen explained is how much are they counting the previous pledges of money? 159 00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:35.919 Remember the ninety million that we said was frozen and the fifty million AD campaign 160 00:12:35.919 --> 00:12:39.000 that was not going to be put up. That's what I mentioned yesterday. 161 00:12:39.039 --> 00:12:43.279 Are they baking this into those I think they are, because they said that 162 00:12:43.320 --> 00:12:46.240 they had unfrozen the money. Remember it was like the lost producer that came 163 00:12:46.279 --> 00:12:50.159 out and said, you know, the dembargo or what have you is over. 164 00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:54.200 We're going to release the floodgates for her, So release the hones. 165 00:12:54.600 --> 00:13:00.600 Yes, Yeah, like is that sixty two percent of new donor were those 166 00:13:00.679 --> 00:13:05.000 new donors to the Biden campaign, but now they're just called their new boners. 167 00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:09.679 Sorry new donors. Oh you said, you know what I meant? 168 00:13:09.799 --> 00:13:15.320 Amy, Are you laughing at a boner joke? Trying to say I was 169 00:13:15.399 --> 00:13:18.759 laughing at a story I'm about. Uh huh, Well, I well, 170 00:13:18.039 --> 00:13:22.399 I didn't know we were all eight years old, but here we are both 171 00:13:22.440 --> 00:13:26.600 boner boner boner Gary ch Now I'm in trouble because I'm not supposed to say 172 00:13:26.639 --> 00:13:30.320 penis before eleven am. It's funny because I'm the one who said it right. 173 00:13:30.799 --> 00:13:39.240 Also, mattel U has unveiled the first blind Barbie I. She has 174 00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:43.799 shiny hair, high heels, picture perfect features, and a red and white 175 00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:48.799 cane sunglasses that provide additional eye protection. So that's how we know she's blind 176 00:13:50.039 --> 00:13:52.960 is the cane and the sunglasses. Well, you can kind of tell the 177 00:13:52.960 --> 00:13:58.559 way that her I don't know what you're trying to do. They're trying to 178 00:13:58.600 --> 00:14:03.320 show you the way that her features. Can you can you not see that 179 00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:16.480 picture? I can't, No, you can't anyway? Very cool? Yeah, 180 00:14:18.399 --> 00:14:26.360 very cool if you have I'm not I'm trying seriously, I'm not trying 181 00:14:26.360 --> 00:14:30.159 to make fun of that. But if you have a child who is blind 182 00:14:30.960 --> 00:14:37.759 and you give that child a blind sorry, see this blind brought this up 183 00:14:37.840 --> 00:14:45.360 and I should know better. A blind Barbie can't couldn't you just get a 184 00:14:45.399 --> 00:14:54.519 Barbie and then say this one's blind like you? I I do not know, 185 00:14:54.000 --> 00:14:58.919 I understand. I am totally in line with your thought process. There, 186 00:14:58.120 --> 00:15:01.679 this is you Disney. I have a quick Disneyland story. Oh is 187 00:15:01.720 --> 00:15:07.000 this about Deadpool? Yeah, so that's a weird juxtaposition with like a profanity 188 00:15:07.120 --> 00:15:13.080 laced character walking around the castle with the princesses. Yeah. Well, I 189 00:15:13.080 --> 00:15:16.120 mean he's gonna be over on the other side, he's gonna be a California 190 00:15:16.159 --> 00:15:20.120 Adventure Marvel Camps. Oh, I see, I but yeah, that's what 191 00:15:20.200 --> 00:15:24.519 he's known for, Deadpool and R rated movies dirty dirty Joe, dirty fun, 192 00:15:24.600 --> 00:15:28.559 wonderful, hilarious, but a comic genius. He's not really going to 193 00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:33.639 be a Disneyland California adventure even has booze and stuff, right, And I 194 00:15:33.799 --> 00:15:39.240 wonder I am assuming because you don't see his face. I mean he's wearing 195 00:15:39.240 --> 00:15:43.919 the full mask. You're not gonna hear him speak. I think he's I 196 00:15:43.960 --> 00:15:46.120 think he's a mute character like the other. Well, yeah, he's not 197 00:15:46.159 --> 00:15:50.120 fully costumed character. You're not going to be Disneyland Ad Jason and start dropping 198 00:15:50.200 --> 00:15:56.399 f bombs. Although although that would be a crowd pleaser, the thing is, 199 00:15:56.440 --> 00:16:00.480 how are you going to find somebody who is quick enough on their deadpool 200 00:16:00.519 --> 00:16:10.679 feet to get what I'm still stuck on. This one is blind, She's 201 00:16:10.879 --> 00:16:14.039 just like you. I have a problem. Also, let's move on back 202 00:16:14.039 --> 00:16:18.159 to politics. This is just an example of what's going to happen over these 203 00:16:18.240 --> 00:16:21.919 next couple of months that is really, really bad and we all need to 204 00:16:21.960 --> 00:16:26.919 be very very careful about what we're doing. Earlier today on Fox Brian kill 205 00:16:26.000 --> 00:16:30.519 Me part of their morning show and also does his own talk show radio talk 206 00:16:30.519 --> 00:16:37.159 show. He was upset that Kamala Harris, the now or presumptive nominee for 207 00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:41.960 the Democratic Party to be president, to be their presidential candidate, that she's 208 00:16:42.120 --> 00:16:48.679 not going to attend Benjamin Netanyahu's speech to a joint session of Congress. Instead, 209 00:16:48.759 --> 00:16:52.080 she had something that was planned before, which still doesn't make it as 210 00:16:52.120 --> 00:16:56.440 any It doesn't make an excuse for what why she's not there, but she's 211 00:16:56.519 --> 00:17:02.240 going to be in Indiana. I believe it is speaking to a traditionally black 212 00:17:02.759 --> 00:17:07.160 sorority about getting out the vote and et cetera, and women and black women 213 00:17:07.240 --> 00:17:11.200 specifically. This was Brian Killmead this morning. Tell me what he says she'd 214 00:17:11.279 --> 00:17:15.039 rather addressed in the summer A sorority, A cold sorority, like you can't 215 00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:22.160 get out of that. What did he say, she'd rather address a sorority, 216 00:17:22.200 --> 00:17:26.440 A sorority, A cold sorority like you can't get out of that. 217 00:17:26.519 --> 00:17:30.960 A college sorority, not colored, right, but that is what people are 218 00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:41.000 now saying. Brian kill Mead would suggest if Brian Killmead use the term colored 219 00:17:41.039 --> 00:17:48.799 on Fox News today, he would be fired immediately. He would be fired 220 00:17:49.039 --> 00:17:55.640 immediately. That's not what he said. He said college sorority. He's right 221 00:17:55.680 --> 00:18:00.880 now. Colored wasn't even a term that was used in old is he Brian 222 00:18:00.960 --> 00:18:04.000 kill me fifty? Yeah, maybe late fifties. Yeah, that that's not 223 00:18:04.079 --> 00:18:07.039 even a term that he grew up with. No, that's a term that 224 00:18:07.680 --> 00:18:15.559 my grandparents grew up with. And it's he's sixty specifically, Okay, it's 225 00:18:15.640 --> 00:18:18.400 it's a frustrating thing because this is just the beginning. This is just the 226 00:18:18.440 --> 00:18:22.559 beginning of people. See, that's why Mike, you Brian kill me. 227 00:18:22.279 --> 00:18:26.000 Well, that's why Mike Johnson had to tell everybody rally the troops, Hey, 228 00:18:26.440 --> 00:18:30.839 be careful. You're going to be called racist and sexist, So no 229 00:18:32.119 --> 00:18:38.160 overt attacks. Speaking to your point about getting out the vote, I've got 230 00:18:38.240 --> 00:18:44.279 some new numbers when it comes to voter registrations that have happened since Biden bowed 231 00:18:44.279 --> 00:18:51.720 out. That's what motivates people. Yeah, The organization said it helped register 232 00:18:51.799 --> 00:18:55.599 more than thirty eight thousand, five hundred voters in the forty eight hours after 233 00:18:55.680 --> 00:19:00.119 Biden's announcement. Thirty eight thousand, the largest number of new voters it is 234 00:19:00.160 --> 00:19:04.359 registered in a two day period this election cycle. Wow, okay, it's 235 00:19:04.400 --> 00:19:10.000 also more. This is more telling. It's also more people than who registered 236 00:19:10.079 --> 00:19:15.079 last September when Taylor Swift urged fans to vote. Now that's a bit more 237 00:19:15.200 --> 00:19:21.160 powerful than Taylor Swift. Before we get to Christopher Ray, King, Gary 238 00:19:21.319 --> 00:19:26.880 and Channon, I am one of the minorities who was fifteen years old and 239 00:19:27.079 --> 00:19:34.279 sixty eight and I remember it all very well. The music, the hmm 240 00:19:36.519 --> 00:19:42.119 pot It's okay, you can say the political the upheaval, racial tensions, 241 00:19:42.240 --> 00:19:48.359 you name it. It was there. The assassinations I remember vividly. Yeah, 242 00:19:48.359 --> 00:19:51.920 we'll talk, Yes, we'll talk more about the craziness that is this 243 00:19:52.079 --> 00:19:56.119 election cycle. Obviously we're living in it, but it's not necessarily unprecedented. 244 00:19:56.200 --> 00:20:02.079 Turmoil is not unprecedented. Yeah, we agree that forwarding of Biden dropping out 245 00:20:02.160 --> 00:20:07.640 quote unquote dropping out for the race is inaccurate. He was forced out people 246 00:20:07.640 --> 00:20:12.400 calling him a patriot and a true American. He went out fighting, kicking 247 00:20:12.480 --> 00:20:17.359 and screaming. He didn't want to, he didn't want to leave, but 248 00:20:18.000 --> 00:20:25.680 dropping out kicked out, it's more accurate. Thank you. Okay, I'll 249 00:20:25.720 --> 00:20:30.119 take I'll take that. That's okay. Sure, if you really think that 250 00:20:30.240 --> 00:20:34.680 Gary did a good job needing his dog, would you be willing to allow 251 00:20:34.759 --> 00:20:40.319 him to give a first name to mister bumper Puss? And are you ready 252 00:20:40.359 --> 00:20:45.160 for a Peter bumper Puss? What have we done? What have what have 253 00:20:45.240 --> 00:20:49.640 we done? Wait? He brings up a good point though, which is 254 00:20:51.200 --> 00:20:56.359 what is bumper Puss's first name? Mister? I kind of like like a 255 00:20:56.440 --> 00:21:00.400 share type thing. Yes, yeah, does not have to be anything. 256 00:21:00.319 --> 00:21:07.440 We don't have to anthropomorphize or Western culturize. The naming of an alien cat 257 00:21:07.480 --> 00:21:12.279 is his? What is his own orientation? Man? I think that doesn't 258 00:21:12.319 --> 00:21:15.920 exist. That's not a They don't worry about that stuff. He hasn't gone 259 00:21:15.920 --> 00:21:21.119 through nobody yet. Nobody cares. Nobody caring. Boner, boner. Okay, 260 00:21:21.240 --> 00:21:25.400 that was the funniest thing I've heard all morning. Sorry about that, 261 00:21:25.440 --> 00:21:29.119 all right. Christopher Ray, the head of the FBI, is testifying before 262 00:21:29.119 --> 00:21:37.079 the House Judiciary Committee today about the attempted assassination attempt on President Trump and talked 263 00:21:37.119 --> 00:21:41.400 about what they know about the shooter in this case, and among other things, 264 00:21:41.000 --> 00:21:48.480 he has said that he looked up information about Lee Harvey Oswald killing JFK, 265 00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:53.160 like what was the distance at which that shot was taken or those shots? 266 00:21:55.640 --> 00:22:02.400 It appears that he flew a drone in the area of the of that 267 00:22:02.599 --> 00:22:06.279 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, but not over the actual stage area, but 268 00:22:06.359 --> 00:22:10.599 in the general area. It was about two hundred yards from the staging area 269 00:22:10.680 --> 00:22:15.200 where he flew the drone. They also said, did Christopher Ray that there 270 00:22:15.279 --> 00:22:21.400 were eight shots that they can confirm? Did crooks fire eight shots? We 271 00:22:21.599 --> 00:22:27.680 have recovered eight cartridges on the roof. Why was crooks allowed to get off 272 00:22:27.720 --> 00:22:33.160 eight shots? Well, that I think is something we're still digging into. 273 00:22:33.680 --> 00:22:38.839 They also Director Ray talked about the explosives that were found. They said they 274 00:22:38.839 --> 00:22:44.400 found two and he almost he was hesitating when he would describe him as explosive 275 00:22:44.480 --> 00:22:48.920 devices. But two things that we will say capable of exploding in the car 276 00:22:49.039 --> 00:22:52.880 and then one at home. At a moment, it looks like because of 277 00:22:53.000 --> 00:23:00.599 the on off position on the receivers, that that if he had tried to 278 00:23:00.680 --> 00:23:06.119 detonate those devices from the roof, it would not have worked. But that 279 00:23:06.119 --> 00:23:11.039 doesn't mean the explosives weren't dangerous. And I'm sure Republicans are leaning into the 280 00:23:11.079 --> 00:23:15.200 algorithm, shall we call it. They say that they're skeptical over the FBI's 281 00:23:15.240 --> 00:23:22.680 ability to conduct this investigation because the Justice Department under the Biden administration. Yeah, 282 00:23:22.799 --> 00:23:27.720 I they wanted to make it go away. They could make it go 283 00:23:27.799 --> 00:23:33.200 away. I get real uncomfortable when you start talking about law enforcement agencies that 284 00:23:33.240 --> 00:23:37.039 for some reason would lean one way or the other. I understand people arguing 285 00:23:37.039 --> 00:23:44.880 that the Department of Justice itself has been has been weaponized because of the investigations 286 00:23:44.880 --> 00:23:48.599 that have taken place. But you also have people complaining that the Department of 287 00:23:48.720 --> 00:23:53.960 Justice was weaponized against Joe Biden because of the the Robert Hur's report or the 288 00:23:55.000 --> 00:23:57.200 special council that was appointed to look at the Hunter Biden case. Well, 289 00:23:57.240 --> 00:24:02.640 you go back to James Comey and Trump and demanding loyalty and all of that. 290 00:24:02.920 --> 00:24:07.119 Yeah, that's not what those people, and those people being law enforcement, 291 00:24:07.240 --> 00:24:11.079 that's not what they swear allegiance to. They don't swear allegiance to you 292 00:24:11.680 --> 00:24:15.680 or a party. They swear allegiance to the country and the upholding of the 293 00:24:15.720 --> 00:24:23.200 Constitution. And that's where it should begin and end. The officials trying to 294 00:24:23.200 --> 00:24:27.960 figure out exactly what this guy knew. I think the most important thing is 295 00:24:29.160 --> 00:24:33.559 whether he was simply a loaner trying to get notoriety, or if there was 296 00:24:33.599 --> 00:24:38.319 anybody else that may have been involved with his planning, with his equipping all 297 00:24:38.359 --> 00:24:42.759 of that, and we don't know yet.
