It's time for the soul of excellence. 28 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 5: He is a radio host here. 29 00:01:32,079 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 8: In New York. 30 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 5: The rush hour is on the air rush rush. Now 31 00:01:36,799 --> 00:01:38,239 here's James Golden. 32 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 9: But in the United States military, we leave no American behind. 33 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 5: We don't do it. 34 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 9: Within hours of our armed forces deployed twenty one military 35 00:01:49,959 --> 00:01:54,239 aircraft into hostile airspace, many flying at very low altitude, 36 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:59,200 being shot by bullets. You bring rifles into play when 37 00:01:59,239 --> 00:02:02,640 you go in that low but there are also certain 38 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:07,840 advantages and a broad daylight over Iran for seven hours 39 00:02:07,879 --> 00:02:12,400 at times facing very very heavy enemy fire. We have 40 00:02:12,439 --> 00:02:14,560 a helicopter there's got a lot of bullets in it. 41 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 5: It's amazing. 42 00:02:15,879 --> 00:02:20,479 Speaker 9: We just realize how good those weapons are, those our 43 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:24,639 machines are. Nobody has, Nobody has the equipment that we have, 44 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:26,439 and nobody has the military that we have. 45 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:27,599 Speaker 5: Not even close. 46 00:02:29,159 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 4: That. 47 00:02:29,439 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 6: Of course, President Donald Trump over the Easter weekend a historic. 48 00:02:34,319 --> 00:02:36,520 That's a word that's overused, but it really was a 49 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:40,599 historic rescue mission. I fully expect and perhaps some distant 50 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,360 years from now, maybe we'll see a movie or something 51 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:47,280 about the effort that was undertaken to bring home the 52 00:02:47,319 --> 00:02:50,360 second American police who was shot down. We will have 53 00:02:50,439 --> 00:02:56,639 more on that as we proceed. There are Democrats like 54 00:02:56,759 --> 00:03:00,759 Seth Molton over the weekend big hell story, I think 55 00:03:00,759 --> 00:03:04,360 it was maybe Friday it broke, basically saying we're losing 56 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,400 the war. And then you have this Jake Otchincloss guy 57 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:11,680 from Massachusetts. He's part of the Kennedy tribe up there. 58 00:03:11,719 --> 00:03:14,520 The Otching class is married into the Kennedys and the 59 00:03:15,479 --> 00:03:19,520 all of these guys. Anyway, he's also declaring an affair, 60 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,599 as are other Democrats, every single one of them wishing 61 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,280 failure or declaring failure on the United States military. I mean, 62 00:03:27,319 --> 00:03:32,400 it's Massachusetts. They're not going to politically take the person out. 63 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,319 But one would hope that voters around the United States 64 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,759 are paying attention to these democrats. Is they make it 65 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:42,560 clear that they would rather support the Iran regime than 66 00:03:42,919 --> 00:03:47,639 actually give our military any credit or President Donald J. 67 00:03:48,039 --> 00:03:53,639 Trump for the actions that are taking place. I was 68 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,960 telling Carlos, I was wondering this New York they're doing, 69 00:03:58,039 --> 00:04:05,199 what is it? It is okay, just partique the music fourteen, 70 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,199 just go and playing Mam damny. 71 00:04:08,919 --> 00:04:11,639 Speaker 1: And while today's true cost of living measure confirms that 72 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,800 the affordability crisis touches every corner of our city. We 73 00:04:15,919 --> 00:04:19,839 know that these effects are not applied evenly, so often 74 00:04:19,879 --> 00:04:21,720 it is black and brown New Yorkers who are hit 75 00:04:21,879 --> 00:04:26,000 the hardest. This preliminary Racial Equity Plan is the first 76 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:30,279 step in developing a whole of government approach to tackling 77 00:04:30,439 --> 00:04:33,560 that reality. It is a plan that lays out these 78 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:37,160 first steps to solve decades of neglect and discrimination. And 79 00:04:37,199 --> 00:04:40,360 it places the work of forty five city agencies within 80 00:04:40,399 --> 00:04:42,560 a singular framework. 81 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 6: Forty five different single agent. Do you think any of 82 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,120 us could just sit here and, off the top of 83 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:52,319 our head, go through what forty five agencies he's talking about. 84 00:04:52,399 --> 00:04:54,160 You want to know why things caught so much in 85 00:04:54,639 --> 00:04:58,360 forty five government agencies and they're all gonna now root 86 00:04:58,399 --> 00:05:03,560 out racism. No, tell Carlos this, this person the New 87 00:05:03,639 --> 00:05:08,040 York chief equity girl, I mean equity officer. I mean 88 00:05:08,079 --> 00:05:11,399 I saw a little video for album. Was asking Carlos 89 00:05:11,399 --> 00:05:14,199 if if she's one of his dating friends, because you 90 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:20,680 know Carlos dates, and he said she'd have to look 91 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:24,160 into it, So I don't know. Did you find her 92 00:05:24,199 --> 00:05:28,040 picture yet? Her name is New York's Chief Equity Officer. 93 00:05:28,079 --> 00:05:36,720 Her name is afua Ata menshah afua Ata Menshaw, and 94 00:05:36,879 --> 00:05:42,279 she has announced New York's new racist plan. They're gonna 95 00:05:42,319 --> 00:05:48,680 eliminate racism by all agents and government already. Harmy Dellon 96 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,439 from the Justice Department, he said, something sounds fishy here. 97 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:57,560 We're gonna look into it. Good, bring in the Justice 98 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:06,399 Department please, But we have her, New York Chief Equity Officer, 99 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:12,560 afu Ata Mensa. Here she is cut sixteen, explaining the 100 00:06:12,639 --> 00:06:16,240 New York diversity effort now to stamp out all racism 101 00:06:16,319 --> 00:06:17,720 everywhere whatever. 102 00:06:17,959 --> 00:06:20,439 Speaker 10: This plan was born during a defining moment in our 103 00:06:20,439 --> 00:06:22,800 city's history, when New Yorkers were in the streets in 104 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:26,399 the midst of a global pandemic, calling for justice, demanding 105 00:06:26,399 --> 00:06:29,560 accountability and bury wotteness to brutality and folding on our 106 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:33,319 streets and on our screens. In that moment, our city 107 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:36,079 was asked to reckon with the deep systemic inequities that 108 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,439 have long shaped life here and to do better. New 109 00:06:39,519 --> 00:06:43,720 Yorker's across all five boroughs answered that call, their voices, 110 00:06:43,759 --> 00:06:46,199 their advocacy, and their persistence are what brought us to 111 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:50,120 this moment. The release of the preliminary citywide Racial Equity 112 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,199 Plan is a reflection of that collective mandate. It is 113 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,199 not just a document, It is a commitment, a commitment 114 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,720 to confront institutional and systemic racism within our city and 115 00:06:59,759 --> 00:07:01,480 to be the work of dismantling it. 116 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,279 Speaker 6: Well, you have to dismantle the Democrat Party because they're 117 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,560 the ones that put it in. They've been running the 118 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:14,000 joint for two centuries now, So if they're systemic institutional racism, 119 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,439 it's the Democrats that you have to dismantle who've been 120 00:07:17,519 --> 00:07:23,199 running the joint. But she sounds like Karen Bass. Just 121 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,240 look in the library, see if you have anything from 122 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,839 Karen Bass. It doesn't matter what it is, and just 123 00:07:27,959 --> 00:07:30,480 play Karen Bass for one minute, and then just play 124 00:07:30,519 --> 00:07:33,040 this woman, because I wonder if we're being duped here, 125 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:37,920 if it's really like a Karen Bass. Imitate anything, just 126 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,959 Karen Bass. Let's see whether we have some Karen Bass here. 127 00:07:42,399 --> 00:07:47,759 Speaker 3: M sixteen thousand homes and businesses were destroyed in the fires, 128 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,279 but at this point we just heard Liz, there fewer 129 00:07:50,319 --> 00:07:53,360 than ten homes have been rebuilt in La County. How 130 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,199 do you explain that to the people of your city. 131 00:07:55,639 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 11: The first few months after a disaster like this, the 132 00:07:59,319 --> 00:08:04,079 attention is paid to clearing out the diversity Girl. 133 00:08:04,199 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 10: This plan was born during a defining moment in our 134 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:07,680 city's history. 135 00:08:09,439 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 11: That took several months. So if you're gonna look at 136 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:16,079 the rebuilding, you could say that it's started in around April. 137 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,879 Speaker 10: Play equity a global pandemic, calling for justice. 138 00:08:20,839 --> 00:08:22,879 Speaker 11: The fact that we have over. 139 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,839 Speaker 10: Four ability and bearing witness to brutality and folding on 140 00:08:26,879 --> 00:08:28,120 our streets and. 141 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:32,039 Speaker 11: On screen Pacific palisades that are actively. 142 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 10: In that moment, our city was asked to reckon with 143 00:08:35,279 --> 00:08:37,480 the deep Susy instruction. 144 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,879 Speaker 11: Now there's about two that are close. 145 00:08:41,159 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 6: Not quite a cigar, but it's close enough. She sounds 146 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:51,519 like Karen. Democrats all cut from the same cookie cutter mold. 147 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,639 I guess Karen and Equity Girl. So I'm interesting to 148 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,519 know what if it'll be interesting to see what Equity 149 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,279 Girl does. And Justice Department thinking to fix systemic racism 150 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,919 caused by the Democrat Party in Democrat New York, and 151 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,840 uh yeah, they're gonna get the whole government involved. Speaking 152 00:09:07,879 --> 00:09:10,360 of New York, I'm gonna deal with this war and 153 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:11,759 I'm gonna deal with all the stuff we've got. A 154 00:09:11,919 --> 00:09:15,519 Trump had a blazing press conference this afternoon. Pete haig 155 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,080 Seth had a lot of things to say, but also 156 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:25,919 my man, Sid Rosenberg, Sid Rosenberg, I love you Sid Rosenberg. Again, 157 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,200 I wouldn't have been aware of this. Apparently there was 158 00:09:29,279 --> 00:09:35,159 a writer in the Daily News who basically said that 159 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:42,559 I'm paraphrasing here that Donald Trump's picks on a Supreme Court. 160 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,759 There was a big story out over, you know, Donald 161 00:09:44,759 --> 00:09:46,799 Trump could get some more picks on the Supreme Court. 162 00:09:47,039 --> 00:09:52,840 And apparently, mister Leonard Greene, a writer, donald Trump having 163 00:09:52,919 --> 00:09:57,320 potential picks on a Supreme Court is scarier than the 164 00:09:57,399 --> 00:10:00,759 seven month old baby that was shot in the head 165 00:10:01,279 --> 00:10:05,120 in New York. It's a scarier process for Donald Trump 166 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:09,679 to have Supreme Court picks than it is for a 167 00:10:09,759 --> 00:10:12,320 seven year old girl to be shot in the head 168 00:10:13,519 --> 00:10:18,559 in Brooklyn in her stroller. And Sid was not happy 169 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,559 about it. For those of you elsewhere in the country, 170 00:10:21,639 --> 00:10:25,080 Sid Rosenberg is host Sid and Friends in the Morning 171 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:29,879 on our flagship station WABC in New York City, and 172 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:35,240 Sid just went, let's hear Sid in Sid's words, cut twelve. 173 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,639 Speaker 12: This is a writer in New York Daily News. His 174 00:10:38,759 --> 00:10:42,399 name is Leonard Green, and he says that President Trump, 175 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:47,639 the possibility of President Trump picking two more Supreme Court 176 00:10:47,879 --> 00:10:53,879 justices is scarier than a seventh month old baby shot 177 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:59,399 to death in Brooklyn and a US Armed Service fighter 178 00:10:59,639 --> 00:11:02,799 somewhere in Iran with the Iranians climbing the mountain looking 179 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:03,279 to kill him? 180 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 6: Is that not unbelievable to you know? Just to make it? 181 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,039 Speaker 12: He should be fired. He should be fired.

In that moment of isolation 237 00:14:45,159 --> 00:14:49,360 and danger, his faith and fighting spirit shown through you 238 00:14:49,399 --> 00:14:54,080 see shot down on a Friday.

In return, they always knew that we would 247 00:15:36,279 --> 00:15:39,519 be ordered to go get them, and they always knew 248 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:42,759 that we would be coming to get them. These two 249 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:47,559 operations reflect our nation's most sacred obligation to our military 250 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:51,639 service members. We leave no one behind, bless you. It 251 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:57,440 also perfectly captures the first truth of our special Operations forces, 252 00:15:58,039 --> 00:16:02,279 that people are more important than hardware. That is the 253 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,240 standard we live by. 254 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 6: That is really deep, folks, Because of course some leftists 255 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:13,320 are complaining about the hardware that we left behind, several 256 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,240 Sea one thirties that had to get destroyed, and some 257 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:20,200 other planes and the left on social media. Look at 258 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,600 all this we left behind. These are the same people. 259 00:16:22,639 --> 00:16:25,399 By the way, he didn't raise one complaint when Joe 260 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:30,240 Biden left one hundred billion dollars of military equipment eighty 261 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:33,799 to one hundred billion dollars of military equipment in Afghanistan 262 00:16:34,279 --> 00:16:38,519 when he unilaterally decided to withdraw, and we lost more 263 00:16:38,639 --> 00:16:42,559 soldiers in terms of lives and that withdrawal than we 264 00:16:42,639 --> 00:16:47,519 have with this entire so far five week military action 265 00:16:47,919 --> 00:16:54,879 against Iran. But Democrats still want to complain about it. 266 00:16:55,559 --> 00:16:57,480 Looking at the clock to see whether we have time. 267 00:16:57,559 --> 00:17:01,639 We don't.

You know, John F. Kennedy was a soldier 273 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,880 in World War Two. I think he would I don't know. 274 00:17:26,039 --> 00:17:28,519 I hate to say what people would do, would do guy, 275 00:17:28,559 --> 00:17:34,119 because we don't know, but we know and he was 276 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:39,240 a fervent anti communist. We know that about the Kennedys, 277 00:17:39,279 --> 00:17:43,559 and these Kennedys, they're not close to the rush Hour. 278 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 7: With James Golden entertaining and informative on the Red Apple 279 00:17:48,359 --> 00:18:06,720 podcast network James Golden, known popularly as both Nerdly. 280 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 5: This is the Rush Hour with James Golden. 281 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:14,559 Speaker 16: Rush with Us Now is Congressman Jake Auchenclaus, a Democrat 282 00:18:14,599 --> 00:18:17,640 from Massachusetts. He's a US Marine Corps veteran and commanded 283 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,200 infantry in Afghanistan. Congressman, good to see you tonight. I 284 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,240 think you heard just Jim's reporting right there. What's your 285 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,279 reaction to it? The idea that fifty percent an intelligence 286 00:18:27,319 --> 00:18:30,559 assessment says of Iran's Michel launchers are still intact. 287 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 8: John, good evening, Thanks for having me back on. Iran 288 00:18:34,839 --> 00:18:40,279 is undeterred, and China is more powerful, Russia is richer, 289 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:45,079 NATO is weaker, and Americans are less safe and more isolated. 290 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:50,559 This has been operation epic failure, and this president owns 291 00:18:50,559 --> 00:18:53,759 it in entirety. There have been presidents in the past, John, 292 00:18:53,839 --> 00:18:56,240 that have started wars that they've had to hand off 293 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,039 to their successors. There have been presidents in the past 294 00:18:59,039 --> 00:19:02,680 that have had to end ingloriously wars that we're not working. 295 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,960 But Donald Trump is going to be the only president 296 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,799 in American history to single handedly start and lose a war. 297 00:19:10,799 --> 00:19:17,160 Speaker 6: Right those Democrats like Seth Moulton, another one from up 298 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:24,079 there in the northeast. We've lost the war. You know. Look, 299 00:19:24,079 --> 00:19:27,599 I'm not taking anything away from his service. Most Democrats 300 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:31,359 don't serve he has. So it's Seth Maulton. By the way. 301 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,799 It's just I can't believe these guys are just openly 302 00:19:35,039 --> 00:19:39,599 rooting for the Iranians to win the war. Their hatred 303 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:45,160 of Trump is that deep. Dave's goldin is. Thirdly, beach 304 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:48,920 boys little for you. We have other California news too. Uh, 305 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:55,920 sixty minutes surprisingly did at peace on the boondoggle that 306 00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:05,400 is the high speed rail in southern California, cut eighteen. 307 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:08,319 We'll just take a quick excerpt from it. This is 308 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:12,920 a much part of a much broader discussion on sixty 309 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:22,759 minutes on California's high speed rail. That's Donald Trump. That 310 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:27,119 is not eighteen. That would be Donald Trump. 311 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:29,319 Speaker 5: Oh. 312 00:20:29,599 --> 00:20:31,880 Speaker 6: I just saw an explosive fly out of carls And 313 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,200 I didn't hear the expeditive, but I saw the expletive 314 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:36,160 as it was happening in real time. 315 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 17: More snarl California's exacting environmental regulations, which triggered all manner 316 00:20:41,799 --> 00:20:45,880 of reviews, lawsuits, and delays as anyone who's renovated a 317 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:49,960 home knows delay ads to price. So did the high 318 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:53,440 US labor and construction costs, at least compared to many 319 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:57,680 other countries. And while the federal government contributed modestly under 320 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:01,400 the Obama and Biden administrations, burden fell largely on the 321 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:05,960 state when construction started. Was the financing there to complete 322 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:07,160 this this rail? 323 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,319 Speaker 6: It wasn't. Let's be real, we had a lot to 324 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,200 learn and we had a lot of growth to do. 325 00:21:12,599 --> 00:21:15,599 Speaker 18: And you know, it's arguable whether you know, we should 326 00:21:15,599 --> 00:21:16,680 have been clearer about that. 327 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 17: By twenty nineteen, cost ballooning in the timeline, years off schedule, 328 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:23,960 bipartisan political pressure mounting. 329 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:29,759 Speaker 6: Yeah, this thing is now. It was supposed to be 330 00:21:29,799 --> 00:21:31,839 finished in twenty twenty. It'll be lucky if it's ever 331 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:36,680 finished by the twenty thirties. The cost is astronomical. They 332 00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:42,480 said it was gonna link La to San Francisco. It's not. 333 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:47,519 It's gonna list Mer said to Baker's Field. Between the 334 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:52,960 ninety thousand people, it's nothing, and it's still costing bazillions, 335 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:59,599 bazillions of dollars.

I wonder what name, what 341 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:32,480 derogatory name Donald Trump could have possibly called Gavin Newsom 342 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:38,000 great gasm.

So I guess, ladies, gentlemen, pretty soon we 365 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:56,200 might might be hearing from women who say that Eric 366 00:24:56,359 --> 00:25:04,200 Swalwell abused him. Now I must say this. You all 367 00:25:04,279 --> 00:25:07,440 know I am not a Swalwell fan. I think Eric 368 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:15,240 Swalwell has been had a despicable career. However, I have 369 00:25:15,319 --> 00:25:18,960 to be honest. It sounds to me like there is 370 00:25:19,039 --> 00:25:23,720 a smear campaign against Eric Swalwell that is coming from 371 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:30,559 somewhere else. I don't think it's much. Look, I love 372 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:34,799 the cash, you know, I love cash Pchell Justice Spartment 373 00:25:34,799 --> 00:25:37,680 with this whole Fang Fang files thing all of a 374 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:41,119 sudden exploding on the scene and then this story now 375 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:43,880 or there are multiple women that are gonna come forward 376 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:49,519 and make claims against Eric Swalwell. Look, folks, things don't 377 00:25:49,559 --> 00:25:55,279 happen by accident. Something is going on here, And even 378 00:25:55,359 --> 00:26:03,559 though I would prefer the truth should come out, I'm 379 00:26:03,559 --> 00:26:09,440 not going to prejudge on whether Eric Swowel is guilty 380 00:26:09,519 --> 00:26:12,880 of anything or not until there is evidence to prove 381 00:26:13,039 --> 00:26:17,680 his guilt. Now, with Fang Fang, I think we should 382 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:21,880 see what's in the Fang Fang files. As for these 383 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:26,000 other women coming forward, I am just going to keep 384 00:26:26,079 --> 00:26:33,000 my powder dry and see because this idea women coming 385 00:26:33,079 --> 00:26:39,680 forward has become an election year thing. And even with Swalwell, 386 00:26:39,759 --> 00:26:46,759 who I don't particularly care for as a politician, I 387 00:26:46,839 --> 00:26:50,920 don't know, will have to see who comes forward, what 388 00:26:51,039 --> 00:26:53,880 they say, and more important than all of that, what 389 00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:59,680 is the evidence that you bear. Now let's get to 390 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:05,079 the preyer's conference. Got a few you know, there was 391 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:10,000 a leak u with the operation over the weekend cut 392 00:27:10,039 --> 00:27:12,759 twenty one. Donald Trump talks about that. 393 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:18,119 Speaker 9: But these two extraordinary rescues because it was two and 394 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,799 as you probably know, we didn't talk about the first 395 00:27:20,839 --> 00:27:25,279 one for an hour. Then somebody leaked something which will 396 00:27:25,279 --> 00:27:27,960 hopefully find that leaker. We're looking very hard to find 397 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:34,400 that leaker, and talked about there's somebody missing. They basically 398 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,440 said that we have one and there's somebody missing. Well, 399 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:39,960 they didn't know there was somebody missing until this leaker. 400 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:40,599 Speaker 5: Gave the information. 401 00:27:41,319 --> 00:27:43,319 Speaker 9: So whoever it is, we think we'll be able to 402 00:27:43,319 --> 00:27:46,160 find it out because we're going to go to the 403 00:27:46,279 --> 00:27:50,319 media company that released it and we're going to say 404 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:54,759 national security, give it up or go to jail, and 405 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,039 we know who, and you know who we're talking about, 406 00:27:58,799 --> 00:27:59,960 because some things you can't do. 407 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 5: Because when they. 408 00:28:00,839 --> 00:28:04,839 Speaker 9: Did that, all of a sudden, the entire country of 409 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:08,519 Iran knew that there was a pilot that was somewhere 410 00:28:08,559 --> 00:28:11,519 on their land that was fighting. 411 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:12,799 Speaker 5: For his life. 412 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:17,119 Speaker 9: And it also made it much more difficult for the 413 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,160 pilots and for the people going in to search for him. 414 00:28:20,319 --> 00:28:24,319 Speaker 5: All of a sudden, they know is serious. 415 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:28,079 Speaker 6: Somebody would leave. Somebody leaked the fact from a major 416 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:30,839 news organization that there was a second pilot that had 417 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,920 not been recovered, and that leak could have cost that 418 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,799 pilot his life, and it could have caused people in 419 00:28:37,839 --> 00:28:40,680 the rescue operations their lives. When he says this is 420 00:28:40,759 --> 00:28:43,799 a national security matter, it is. And I hope they're 421 00:28:43,839 --> 00:28:47,400 serious about finding out who from inside the administration leaked it, 422 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:53,839 and you know, we'll see what happens from there. I 423 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:58,960 hope it is not somebody that we as a public 424 00:28:59,599 --> 00:29:04,279 know and have put public faith in, because that would 425 00:29:04,319 --> 00:29:12,119 be highly distressing. Cut number twenty two on the Iranian negotiations. 426 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,519 Speaker 9: We've knocked out their air force completely. You've knocked out 427 00:29:14,519 --> 00:29:17,960 one hundred and fifty eight chips in three days. We've 428 00:29:18,039 --> 00:29:20,240 knocked out even their mind droppers. They don't have any 429 00:29:20,319 --> 00:29:22,920 mind droppers anymore, but they put them on other. 430 00:29:22,799 --> 00:29:24,839 Speaker 5: Boats and they could drop them. I'm not even sure 431 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:25,680 they have any minds yet. 432 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:29,279 Speaker 9: By the way, I'm not sure I'm personally. They say 433 00:29:29,279 --> 00:29:29,960 there might be eight. 434 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 5: I don't know. 435 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:31,079 Speaker 6: I don't know. 436 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:34,519 Speaker 9: I think there might be none because they're very good 437 00:29:34,519 --> 00:29:37,119 boat artists. That's why for forty seven years they've been 438 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,359 booked by the presidents and they haven't done the job. 439 00:29:40,759 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 5: And people are living in hell. You live in that country, 440 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:45,319 they're living in hell. 441 00:29:46,079 --> 00:29:50,759 Speaker 9: No, I think that forty seven years of this stuff 442 00:29:50,839 --> 00:29:51,759 is long enough. 443 00:29:52,559 --> 00:29:54,319 Speaker 5: They're at the weakest two. 444 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:56,359 Speaker 6: We're going to cut him there because I want to 445 00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,880 get this and Trump was also asked about his comments 446 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:04,359 over the weekend of the f bomb laden statement that 447 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,720 he released yesterday, which has drawn so much scrutiny Democrats 448 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,839 saying he's out of his mind, etc. Etcetera. Cut twenty 449 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,599 three reporter act ask Donald Trump about that, and this 450 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:15,599 is what he said. 451 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:20,079 Speaker 19: Yesterday and your truth social You called the Iranians crazy bastards? True? 452 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,000 What is your response to critics who say that I 453 00:30:23,039 --> 00:30:25,200 don't care about? What is your response to critics who 454 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,839 said it is your mental health should perhaps be examined 455 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:28,599 as this worlt. 456 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:29,599 Speaker 5: I haven't heard that. 457 00:30:30,279 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 9: But if that's the case, you're going to have to 458 00:30:31,759 --> 00:30:35,000 have more people like me, because our country was being 459 00:30:35,079 --> 00:30:39,480 ripped off on trade or everything for many years until 460 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:41,680 I came along. So if that's the case, you're going 461 00:30:41,759 --> 00:30:42,720 to have to have more people. 462 00:30:44,279 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 6: Cut twenty six before we have to head to a 463 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:48,839 break Pete hegkshats Secretary of Wahwah person. 464 00:30:49,079 --> 00:30:52,279 Speaker 14: What happened direction today will be the largest volume of 465 00:30:52,279 --> 00:30:56,559 strikes since day one. Of this operation tomorrow even more 466 00:30:56,599 --> 00:31:01,119 than today, and then Iran has a choice choose wisely, 467 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:05,000 because this president does not play around. 468 00:31:06,279 --> 00:31:09,319 Speaker 6: I mentioned earlier Marco Rubio had some choice things to 469 00:31:09,359 --> 00:31:11,720 say about our relationship with the countries that have not 470 00:31:11,839 --> 00:31:17,160 helped us cut seven. This is well, We'll wait because 471 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:27,119 I hear music. It's Meryl Wow this country day on 472 00:31:27,599 --> 00:31:32,240 both Learnler's rush Ya Hour. Meryl Haggard, my friend's American 473 00:31:32,279 --> 00:31:35,680 singer songwriter, passed away in twenty sixteen on this day 474 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:40,839 of complications from pneumonia at his home and pauloseddro California. 475 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:44,279 Along with Buck Owens, Haggard and his band The Strangers 476 00:31:44,279 --> 00:31:49,440 helped create the Baker's Field sound that Twainy Fender telecaster 477 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:59,640 guitar in nineteen thirty seven.

It's the Rush Hour with James Golden. 488 00:33:22,279 --> 00:33:22,519 Speaker 20: Rush. 489 00:33:22,839 --> 00:33:25,319 Speaker 5: And now here's James Golden. 490 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 6: Promised, here's Marco Rubio, Secretary of State. 491 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,039 Speaker 18: When we need them to allow us to use their 492 00:33:31,079 --> 00:33:34,359 military basis, their answer is no. Then why are we 493 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,200 in NATO? You have to ask that question. Why do 494 00:33:36,279 --> 00:33:39,240 we have billions and billions of dollars hundreds of billions 495 00:33:39,279 --> 00:33:41,920 of dollars over the years, trillions of dollars and all 496 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,720 these American forces stationed in the region. If we can 497 00:33:44,759 --> 00:33:47,000 only use it, we can we in our time of need, 498 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,160 We're not going to be allowed to use those bases. 499 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,759 So I think there's no doubt. Unfortunately, after this conflict 500 00:33:52,839 --> 00:33:55,519 is concluded, we are going to have to re examine 501 00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:57,680 that relationship. We're going to have to re examine the 502 00:33:57,759 --> 00:34:00,000 value of NATO and that alliance for our country. Ultimate 503 00:34:00,119 --> 00:34:02,559 that's a decision for the president to make, and you'll 504 00:34:02,559 --> 00:34:04,680 have to make it. We're going to finish the job here. 505 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:06,640 As I said, we're very very close to achieving our 506 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:09,119 objectives on all of these things that I've outlined, But 507 00:34:09,199 --> 00:34:11,480 I do think, unfortunately, we are going to have to 508 00:34:11,519 --> 00:34:15,239 re examine whether or not this alliance that has served 509 00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,960 this country well for a while is still serving that 510 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,159 purpose or has it now become a one way street 511 00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:23,199 where America is simply in a position to defend Europe, 512 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,760 but when we need the help of our allies, they're 513 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:27,559 going to deny US basing rights and they're going to 514 00:34:27,559 --> 00:34:30,599 deny us overflight. I think these are very legitimate questions 515 00:34:30,599 --> 00:34:32,400 that we need to be asking, and this are going 516 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,760 to have to be very carefully examined after this conflict 517 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:35,119 is over. 518 00:34:36,159 --> 00:34:42,239 Speaker 6: Well, I look forward to those discussions. NATO. The time 519 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:46,199 has come and passed for NATO in my view, and 520 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:49,360 I don't say that lightly. I think NATO, if you 521 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,000 look at the joint history that we had during World 522 00:34:52,039 --> 00:34:58,320 War two and beyond, it was born out of the 523 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:05,679 finest moments of the European and American military cooperation. And 524 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:10,679 it wasn't just Europe, of course, remember allies. We had 525 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:16,679 allies including Australia, including others, that helped us turn back 526 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:21,719 the evil that was the Axis Powers those days are 527 00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:25,360 now over and in this new world, the United States 528 00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:31,559 is unappreciated in Europe. Time we change all of that. 529 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,320 Nineteen sixty eight, what a year. That was a year 530 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:46,760 of turmoil. Boy, two assassinations. Nixon was in office, but 531 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:50,639 we had the assassination April fourth of doctor King and 532 00:35:50,679 --> 00:35:55,760 then June fourth Robert Kennedy. We had the riots in Chicago, 533 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:59,639 the Democrat National Convention. And while all that was going on, 534 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:05,880 this song Simon and Garfuncle in April were number one 535 00:36:06,679 --> 00:36:10,960 with their album from the soundtrack from the movie The 536 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:17,199 Graduate Plastics, My Man Plastics, and of course this the 537 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:26,599 hit that endures until this day.
