1 00:00:22,679 --> 00:00:26,239 Speaker 1: And here we are Welcome. Welcome to the Big Podcast 2 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:31,879 on this Thursday. Today is the fifteenth day of January. 3 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,759 We've got this month half over year of our Lord, 4 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:39,840 twenty twenty six. My name is Tom Sullivan. And there's 5 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:44,000 just I don't know. There's the thing that's dominating the 6 00:00:44,039 --> 00:00:50,600 news has been this whole fight with ice in Minneapolis. 7 00:00:50,679 --> 00:00:55,520 And it doesn't it's not slowing down. It's continuing to 8 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,079 get bigger and bigger and bigger as we go down 9 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,200 each and every day. And so I would love to 10 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,599 talk about I've got a few other things to go 11 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,200 over that are kind of fun, because these are not fun. 12 00:01:08,439 --> 00:01:11,519 Minute we got that, we got Iran and I don't know. 13 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:15,200 The president last night, just before we finished taping the 14 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,439 podcast yesterday said that he got word that they have 15 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,439 stopped killing people and they were not going to be 16 00:01:21,519 --> 00:01:25,000 hanging people. And I don't know. I've talked to a 17 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,760 lot of people today. They're going, do you believe that? No, 18 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:34,959 So it's still iron is still hot potato, big hot potato, 19 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:40,079 and nobody knows what is going to happen next. But 20 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:45,560 let me start with Minnesota because it's just out of control. 21 00:01:45,599 --> 00:01:48,200 It's every day it's the same thing that the people 22 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,959 were out in bigger numbers today. And I told you 23 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,959 the other day that is this thing. This thing goes 24 00:01:54,000 --> 00:02:00,120 for a day or two. Watch the antagonists come in 25 00:02:00,239 --> 00:02:03,560 from all over the country. This is what they live for. 26 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,719 There's there's groups that this is what they do is 27 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:12,759 they do protests, and they are well organized, and they've 28 00:02:12,759 --> 00:02:16,960 got great social media skills, and they will get they 29 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,199 will get that crowd bigger every single day. So as 30 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:21,800 you look at the crowd, I would love to know 31 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:28,560 who's from even Minnesota, let alone Minneapolis. But I'm watching 32 00:02:28,599 --> 00:02:34,400 this and I I'm taking a bit of a leap here. 33 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,560 Some of you may not like what I have to say. 34 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,960 I've been I've been watching this and thinking about it, 35 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,520 and it's been a long time. But I did wear 36 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:50,479 a badge and a gun many years ago. And I 37 00:02:50,599 --> 00:02:56,039 know what police training and duties and and that police 38 00:02:56,039 --> 00:03:00,960 departments do a great job of scouring and filtering and 39 00:03:01,039 --> 00:03:03,439 selecting who it is it's going to be able to 40 00:03:03,439 --> 00:03:08,039 be a police officer. But there's always every no matter 41 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:12,319 how well they do, there's always a couple of bad 42 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,360 apples to get in there. But I'm not talking about 43 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,639 the rank and file. The rank and file that are 44 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:28,680 there are there's Border Patrol, there is ICE, there's other 45 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:33,400 Federal Secret Service, there's FBI, there's a variety of federal 46 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:37,199 officers that are there. That's one of the problems is 47 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:41,960 they don't have a central command structure behind all of it. 48 00:03:42,199 --> 00:03:45,120 But I'll even back up further from that, So you've 49 00:03:45,159 --> 00:03:52,439 got Minneapolis that is there's no leadership, So the police 50 00:03:52,439 --> 00:03:55,400 department is hands off. They can't go in and help, 51 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,879 and they're really in most places something like this, the 52 00:03:58,919 --> 00:04:03,080 police department get involved, but nope, they're they're not there 53 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,919 to support any of the federal officers that are there 54 00:04:07,599 --> 00:04:11,120 originally to go after the fraudsters and figure out what 55 00:04:11,159 --> 00:04:14,039 that's all about. But then that whole thing blew up 56 00:04:14,039 --> 00:04:18,519 with the shooting of that woman, and now it's the 57 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:22,120 reaction of that was on the federal level. Was also 58 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,800 I just I just shook my head because I'm thinking 59 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,879 there's no leadership on either side. And that's what I'm 60 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:33,959 basically my message. I'm looking at the at the government 61 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:40,920 of Minneapolis and Minnesota are a couple of clowns. I mean, this, 62 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:47,120 this mayor Fry is certifiably not right in the head. 63 00:04:47,199 --> 00:04:50,360 I mean, he's there's something wrong with that guy. And Walls, 64 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,199 I mean, he might be the greatest guy to go 65 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,079 fishing with, isn't that his thing? I think it is. 66 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:02,399 But he's not very smart. He's not very bright, and 67 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:10,079 it shows there is no leadership coming from the governor 68 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,680 of the state or the mayor of the city and 69 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,519 the police chief. As I've told you many many times, 70 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:21,519 police chiefs work for the mayor and so the police chief, 71 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,560 I don't know if he's good, bad, or indifferent, but 72 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:26,519 he's been told not to do a thing, and so 73 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:31,560 he's not doing a thing. Move over to the FEDS, 74 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,720 and I have to tell you, I'm looking at this 75 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:39,639 and I'm going I think they're also without leadership. First 76 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:43,399 of all, you got all these different federal agencies. But secondly, 77 00:05:43,439 --> 00:05:46,160 there's a lot of them like they don't have any 78 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:52,800 training in crowd control or urban events. They do most 79 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,920 of their work out in the more rural America and 80 00:05:55,959 --> 00:05:58,480 any place else. In the border patrol, they're trained to 81 00:05:58,519 --> 00:06:03,319 take care of the border. So you've got when I 82 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:07,560 watch what they're doing, I think they don't have anybody 83 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:11,399 who really is in charge. They don't have good leadership. 84 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:16,560 If I was, if I was running the thing, and 85 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,959 this is where you might differ with me, but I 86 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:26,839 would pull back. I would pull back instead. What did 87 00:06:27,199 --> 00:06:32,199 Christinome say? And she doesn't have a clue about how 88 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:37,639 to manage police or enforcement. 89 00:06:38,879 --> 00:06:39,759 Speaker 2: She is. 90 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 1: I'm trying to be nice, but I mean she's not. 91 00:06:45,759 --> 00:06:49,439 So she was governor of a small state, but I 92 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,839 just don't think she has any skills other than she 93 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,160 likes to put on dress up outfits and go out 94 00:06:56,199 --> 00:06:59,040 there and talk tough, and so she likes to do 95 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,839 the I'm tougher than you. It's like, this is like 96 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,959 a bar fight where two guys in a bar. You 97 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:07,839 know what I'm going to do to you? Yeah, well, 98 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:09,879 let you know what I'm going to and then I'll 99 00:07:09,879 --> 00:07:12,639 see you outside. And that's where we are with this. 100 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:16,759 It's a bar fight, and there aren't any smart people 101 00:07:17,319 --> 00:07:24,040 on either side of the bar fight. I mean, policing. 102 00:07:25,879 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 3: Is is. 103 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,399 Speaker 1: There's a lot of art, but there's a lot of 104 00:07:30,439 --> 00:07:35,519 science to it too, and policing can only be successful 105 00:07:36,199 --> 00:07:41,199 if police have the support of the people. Well, I 106 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:46,160 think it goes pretty clearly that the ICE has no 107 00:07:46,279 --> 00:07:50,319 support from the people in Minneapolis none and the governor 108 00:07:50,519 --> 00:07:54,199 is turning up the fire every day about how bad 109 00:07:54,279 --> 00:08:00,000 ICE is. Ice has lost the support of the public, 110 00:08:00,399 --> 00:08:06,040 not only in Minneapolis, but the media is showing really 111 00:08:06,279 --> 00:08:12,519 rough policing and it may be valid, may not be valid, 112 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:16,319 but it looked pretty ugly when you see it on 113 00:08:16,399 --> 00:08:20,000 the news, and that's what people are judging. They're going, oh, man, 114 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:23,160 those ICE people are really bad. No, I mean they're 115 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:27,720 getting attacked. And the headlines today a number of news 116 00:08:27,759 --> 00:08:31,600 media there was a ICE agent last night that was 117 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:37,159 literally physically attacked by three guys. One of them is 118 00:08:37,159 --> 00:08:42,559 illegal who took a broom handle and you think a 119 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:47,360 broom handle, like, yes, you take a broom handle and 120 00:08:47,399 --> 00:08:51,240 swing that thing, you can break somebody's legs easy. And 121 00:08:51,519 --> 00:08:57,720 also a shovel, and they were attacking, they sabotaged this 122 00:08:58,159 --> 00:09:02,440 ICE agent. He was ambushed and they attacked him and 123 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,600 he pulled his gun and he's shot and he's luck 124 00:09:05,879 --> 00:09:10,240 luckily shot the one illegal guy in the leg. So 125 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,559 the officer is in the hospital, the illegals in the 126 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,440 in the hospital. But people are looking at this and 127 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:22,039 going they're they're they're blaming, they're blaming Ice. Now, I'll 128 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:27,279 tell you who does have good managerial experience in police, 129 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,759 and it's Tom Holman. He talked rough, he talks tough, 130 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,519 but he's about the only guy on the federal side 131 00:09:34,919 --> 00:09:39,679 that actually has managerial experience and knows what to do 132 00:09:40,279 --> 00:09:46,279 when it comes to policing. And yet he answers to 133 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:51,440 whom that would be christineom and she is doing the 134 00:09:51,639 --> 00:09:55,200 I'm tough. I'm a tough babe, and you better know it. 135 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,679 And it's just making things where I first saw it 136 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:03,320 was the woman was shot and killed, and they have 137 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:09,200 two thousand ice officers federal officers in Minneapolis. The city 138 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,000 has six hundred police officers. They had two thousand there, 139 00:10:13,039 --> 00:10:15,559 which first of all, you go, oh, you're asking for 140 00:10:15,639 --> 00:10:18,639 trouble to do it that way. And then so the 141 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,399 woman gets shot, and why does Christin nomme come out 142 00:10:21,399 --> 00:10:24,639 and say that's it. Fine, you don't like us, Fine, 143 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:28,759 we'll send another thousand. I'm bigger and tougher than you, do. 144 00:10:28,799 --> 00:10:32,320 You know what I'm going to do to you. So 145 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:36,399 you got clowns on both sides that are running this 146 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:44,120 operation in Minneapolis, And if somebody would please use some smarts, 147 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:49,519 I really don't think they're very smart and somebody with 148 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:53,360 policing experience you would pull them back and instead of 149 00:10:53,519 --> 00:10:56,799 having two thousand there, you would break it down into 150 00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:02,480 smaller groups and very quietly and strategically go about the 151 00:11:02,639 --> 00:11:07,279 job of arresting the illegals that you want to are targeted. 152 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,240 It's going to take you a little longer, and I 153 00:11:11,279 --> 00:11:12,960 know you've got a lot of pressure to try to 154 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,600 probably hit some quotas, and that's another thing. They're trying 155 00:11:16,639 --> 00:11:19,720 to hit quotas to make I guess the president happy. 156 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,480 But well, they had twenty million people come in illegally 157 00:11:24,519 --> 00:11:27,639 and a bunch of those people are targeted as criminals. 158 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:33,639 They're trying to find them and President wants them out yesterday. 159 00:11:34,039 --> 00:11:35,919 Well it's not going to happen that way. It's going 160 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:44,120 to take longer. So quotas, I don't care if you're 161 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:51,200 the local police department, you're the highway patrol. Quotas. People 162 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:55,279 don't like quotas. People don't like police with quotas. Police 163 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:59,519 should not use quotas. Police should enforce the law based 164 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:03,919 upon violations of the law. So Ice has lost the 165 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:10,399 public support the president he won in twenty twenty four 166 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:15,480 on two things, one the economy and two the border. 167 00:12:18,759 --> 00:12:22,639 That's why he won. He was way popular on both 168 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:26,399 the economy and the border, and now his ratings are 169 00:12:26,759 --> 00:12:30,600 way belows, way below half. I mean, he's down in 170 00:12:30,639 --> 00:12:34,440 the thirties somewhere. So people voted for him over immigration 171 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:40,000 in the economy, and he has to make sure that 172 00:12:40,039 --> 00:12:44,679 he's making a positive difference with both of them. So 173 00:12:44,759 --> 00:12:47,360 I don't know. They said they were going to arrest 174 00:12:47,399 --> 00:12:50,519 the worst of the worst first, and what people are 175 00:12:50,519 --> 00:12:55,960 seeing is a lot of rough police handling. First of all, 176 00:12:56,039 --> 00:12:59,120 excessive force has always been something that's turned off people. 177 00:12:59,519 --> 00:13:03,360 So this is not only turning people off there in Minneapolis, 178 00:13:03,879 --> 00:13:07,000 but there's a with the polling going on, there's a 179 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:11,480 lot of people. This is hurting Republicans politically. I know 180 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,679 that's all they care about. I'll give you a couple 181 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:17,360 of other items that I've been chewing on. I've talked 182 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:21,000 about this for years. I would like police departments to 183 00:13:21,039 --> 00:13:25,960 look like police officers, not like soldiers. They are running 184 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:30,320 around in camo with their helmets on and their masks. 185 00:13:30,519 --> 00:13:33,639 That's fine for how riot police have always worn helmets 186 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:38,399 and face masks, But there were police uniforms they don't 187 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:44,879 look like the military has invaded the city. So I 188 00:13:44,879 --> 00:13:47,080 I mean, people go, well, but they're they're going to 189 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,279 identify the well. I don't know. When I wore a 190 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,000 badge and a gun, I had a name tag. When 191 00:13:54,039 --> 00:13:56,519 I was in the army, there was my name on 192 00:13:56,559 --> 00:14:02,879 my chest. So with this this hiding behind whatever it 193 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:08,240 is in military uniforms, but it is like two guys 194 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,799 in a bar and the tough guy approaches, I'm tougher 195 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,360 than you. And to ask for bringing in three thousand 196 00:14:14,519 --> 00:14:17,559 now federal officers into this. That's not going to calm 197 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:23,960 anything down, not anytime soon. Everybody's calling for de escalation, 198 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:28,759 but nobody's doing it. So I would if I was 199 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,960 running the place, I would I would bring it down 200 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:35,440 to a lot of those ice guys would go on 201 00:14:35,639 --> 00:14:40,360 other cities, other duties, other locations and keep a smaller, 202 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,679 smaller team there, I mean much smaller and go out 203 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:50,120 and quietly surprise them by you surprise the bad guys 204 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:55,240 by arresting them without them seeing you coming. So it's 205 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,960 it's there's no leadership and nobody seems to know how 206 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,799 to do policing, and the police department is not allowed 207 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:10,399 to do anything. Walls is just a clown. He keeps 208 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:14,519 talking about how everybody needs to de escalate. Listen to 209 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:19,799 Governor Waltz. This was I think last night. Hold on. 210 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 4: The federal government is raining down upon our communities. Two 211 00:15:23,759 --> 00:15:26,480 to three thousand armed agents of the federal government have 212 00:15:26,559 --> 00:15:32,519 been deployed to Minnesota. Armed, masked, undertrained ICE agents are 213 00:15:32,559 --> 00:15:34,679 going door to door. Carry your phone with you at 214 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,879 all times, and if you see these ICE agents in 215 00:15:37,879 --> 00:15:41,960 your neighborhood, take out that phone and hit record. Help 216 00:15:42,039 --> 00:15:45,320 us create a database of the atrocities against Minnesotans. 217 00:15:47,679 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, the atrocities against Minnesotans. He's just trying to he's 218 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:55,399 fanning the flames. I really do think he's just not 219 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,240 a very bright guy. I think he always probably got 220 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,519 I always talked about the seam of students that run government. 221 00:16:02,039 --> 00:16:04,600 I think he's a D minus. I think they gave 222 00:16:04,639 --> 00:16:06,759 him D minuses just so that they could move him 223 00:16:06,759 --> 00:16:09,559 out of the class onto something else. He really is 224 00:16:10,639 --> 00:16:13,519 not a very bright guy. But he's not alone. And 225 00:16:13,639 --> 00:16:17,559 like I said, the mayor is a clown. And on 226 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:23,960 the on the ICE, if you will, the former ICE, 227 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:28,240 I think he was a former assistant director Jonathan Faye. 228 00:16:29,039 --> 00:16:31,200 He doesn't seem like he's all that bride either. 229 00:16:31,679 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 5: It seems like what President Trump posted today about invoking 230 00:16:35,159 --> 00:16:38,240 the Insurrection Act seems to be the way this is going, 231 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:40,519 and that's the way it will end. And just to 232 00:16:40,679 --> 00:16:43,240 invoke the Insurrection Act, he just has to make a 233 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:47,679 determination that is impractical to enforce federal law because of 234 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:51,159 the obstructionist activities. And I think that's apparent just by 235 00:16:51,159 --> 00:16:53,879 the reporting you just had, and you have people like 236 00:16:53,919 --> 00:16:57,320 Tim walt the irony of him saying they don't want 237 00:16:57,399 --> 00:17:00,879 chaos when they he is seemingly doing everything he can 238 00:17:00,919 --> 00:17:05,559 to sow chaos, to cause division, to encourage people to 239 00:17:05,599 --> 00:17:07,440 subvert ICE in their mission. 240 00:17:07,599 --> 00:17:08,599 Speaker 1: It's really shameful. 241 00:17:08,599 --> 00:17:10,640 Speaker 5: But I think we're going down the road of the 242 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:14,519 Insurrection Act because Governor Waltz is not going to step 243 00:17:14,599 --> 00:17:19,440 up his responsibility and get his streets safe so ICE 244 00:17:19,519 --> 00:17:22,920 can do their job. And remember, ICE is enacting the 245 00:17:23,039 --> 00:17:26,319 laws passed by Congress, are not enforcing them. They are 246 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:30,079 doing something inherently democratic, and Tim Woltz and Jacob Fry 247 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,119 and others are trying to prevent that. 248 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 1: So so by enacting the Insurrection Act, it may happen. 249 00:17:36,559 --> 00:17:40,839 It's actually for when the local police can't handle the situation, 250 00:17:41,079 --> 00:17:45,640 the president can send in troops. But the idea behind 251 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:50,200 military in our cities has long been only as the 252 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:55,480 very very very last resort. And so fayse going, oh, well, 253 00:17:55,599 --> 00:17:58,039 let's just step it up some more. Let's pour, let's 254 00:17:58,039 --> 00:18:01,240 still out. You're being tough, governor, you're an idiot. Well 255 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,359 I'll be an idiot too, and we'll just do the end. 256 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:07,680 We'll just ramp up the argument between each other. It's 257 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,839 I'm so embarrassed by what's going on with both sides 258 00:18:11,839 --> 00:18:16,279 of the aisle here. So beyond policing, the science the 259 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:20,160 art of policing, gosh, there's got to be a lot 260 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:23,440 of police officers out there in this country just shaking 261 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:26,799 their head watching what's going on. And I imagine the 262 00:18:26,839 --> 00:18:30,119 Minneapolis police chief is probably doing the exact same thing, 263 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:33,359 but he answers to the mayor. But what about the 264 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:38,279 politics of this, So we're not that far away from midterms, 265 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:45,119 people will remember this. How much is this helping not 266 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:50,039 only de escalate Minneapolis so that people can get back 267 00:18:50,079 --> 00:18:53,400 to their lives and the kids can go back to school. 268 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,720 They still have they're they're doing a COVID thing. They're 269 00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:01,640 having the kids learn from home, yeah, from you know online. 270 00:19:02,039 --> 00:19:05,839 It's again, I don't know if anybody is everybody in 271 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:10,759 Minneapolist a deem minus student. Anyway, the politics of this 272 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:14,599 is is not good. And Doug Hay, who is a 273 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:18,359 Republican spokesman, gives us his view. 274 00:19:18,519 --> 00:19:20,880 Speaker 2: You know, Donald Trump knows where his numbers are. Look, 275 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,279 he would love to be at fifty five percent approval 276 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,039 or one hundred percent approval obviously, if everything's big and 277 00:19:26,079 --> 00:19:29,039 bold and beautiful. But Donald Trump, we use this term 278 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:30,960 lame duck, and I don't think it really applies to 279 00:19:31,039 --> 00:19:33,680 Donald Trump, even though he is technically in a lame 280 00:19:33,759 --> 00:19:37,039 duck status. Donald Trump doesn't live in a lame duck world. 281 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:39,559 He lives in a yolo world. And what's important to 282 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,160 him isn't where his numbers are, but what he can 283 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,960 do and the levers of control and power that he 284 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,240 has so where he can use them he does. So 285 00:19:47,599 --> 00:19:50,079 what the polls say after the fact or even during 286 00:19:50,079 --> 00:19:52,640 the fact, is really a secondary matter to him. It's 287 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:54,839 what can he do and how much power does he have? 288 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,880 And we see him use this all the time. Yeah, 289 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:02,079 he definitely exhibit. It's the powers of the president, and 290 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:05,160 for some think maybe beyond the powers of the president. 291 00:20:05,759 --> 00:20:09,720 So it's not going to settle down anytime soon. The 292 00:20:09,759 --> 00:20:15,480 ICE people are run by Christy Gnoam, I'm just beating 293 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,880 a dead horse here. Now let's move on to Iron, 294 00:20:18,599 --> 00:20:21,640 which is another man. This thing is not I know 295 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:25,680 the President said last night that they said they weren't 296 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,799 going to kill any more or execute or hang anybody. 297 00:20:29,279 --> 00:20:34,079 I don't know if anybody who believes that. Admiral James 298 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:40,400 stav Ritas was asked about the military angle of doing something, 299 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,799 because it still may happen when you least expect it. 300 00:20:43,839 --> 00:20:48,960 That's the way Donald Trump operates. He surprises you. So 301 00:20:49,799 --> 00:20:53,920 stav Rita's weighs in on what kind of military operation 302 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:55,400 would look like. 303 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 3: The reason is with the Iranians saying, oh, we've stopped 304 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:03,279 the killing, we are holding off, I think you got 305 00:21:03,319 --> 00:21:06,559 to kind of turn Ronald Reagan upside down. It's not 306 00:21:06,799 --> 00:21:11,519 trust but verify, it's don't trust and verify. So I 307 00:21:11,559 --> 00:21:14,079 think over the next twenty four to forty eight hours, 308 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:17,880 the US intelligence community has its work cut out for it. 309 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:22,000 This is becoming an information war. In a certain sense, 310 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:27,079 meaning we need to be amplifying the voices of the protesters, 311 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:30,839 getting their stories out, and at the same time we 312 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,359 need to be shining a light on the malfeasance of 313 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,640 this regime. We have the capability to do that. You 314 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,599 don't need boots on the ground, you don't need to 315 00:21:38,599 --> 00:21:40,799 carry her off the coast to do it. I think 316 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,960 that's where this is going to unfold over the next 317 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:45,480 twenty four to forty eight hours. 318 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,319 Speaker 1: So John Bolton, who was former National security advisor and 319 00:21:49,319 --> 00:21:52,160 Trump one point zero and then he and Trump got 320 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,240 into it and don't like each other. But he's still 321 00:21:54,440 --> 00:22:01,279 very smart national security strategist, and he's also been a hawk. 322 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:05,279 He's always been a hawk, especially against Iran. They have 323 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:09,119 a contract out to kill him. That's how much they 324 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,960 don't like Ron doesn't like him. So it's not a 325 00:22:12,039 --> 00:22:15,759 surprise that he thinks we should go in, guns a blazing. 326 00:22:15,759 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 6: Clearing away whatever air defenses Iron may have to safeguard 327 00:22:21,079 --> 00:22:23,799 any planes we're going to be sending in. I would 328 00:22:23,799 --> 00:22:28,359 go after headquarters for the Revolutionary Guard and their besieging militia, 329 00:22:29,079 --> 00:22:31,519 who are really the thugs killing most of the people 330 00:22:31,559 --> 00:22:35,160 in the streets. I'd go after their bases and facilities, 331 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,599 and we'd be very discriminate, and how we tried to 332 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,880 do that. I would go I would go again after 333 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:44,599 the nuclear program, the ballistic missile production program. I'd go 334 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:46,400 after the Iranian Navy. 335 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:51,319 Speaker 1: That's John Boldon, he'd go after, He'd bomb that to smithereens. 336 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,480 He'd turn as the old thing goes, turned it into 337 00:22:53,519 --> 00:22:57,119 an asphalt parking lot. So I was a little surprised 338 00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:01,200 because Admirals Gravinas is a much more thoughtful guy, but 339 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,559 he seems to back up what Bolton's talking about. 340 00:23:05,799 --> 00:23:09,079 Speaker 3: It's a pretty extensive one. And in order to do that, 341 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:13,160 you'd need a very significant force, and it would be 342 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:17,680 helpful in that scenario get a US carrier or two 343 00:23:18,039 --> 00:23:21,039 off the coast that would also send a significant signal. 344 00:23:21,319 --> 00:23:24,640 I can't argue with that target set. I'll add to 345 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:27,160 it a couple of other things we mentioned one a 346 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:32,119 moment ago is information warfare, figuring out how to get 347 00:23:32,279 --> 00:23:35,960 the video, how to get the numbers of what is 348 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:41,119 happening out. I think also cyber, using offensive cyber to 349 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:45,640 go after the capabilities of the Revolutionary Guard, the thugs 350 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,480 on the street, all of that. Those are things you 351 00:23:48,519 --> 00:23:52,359 can do without whistling up the big bombers. But at 352 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:57,000 the end of the day, the Ayatola is not Nicholas Maduro. 353 00:23:57,079 --> 00:23:59,720 He's not going to go quietly into that good night, 354 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,359 gently that good night. We're going to have to I 355 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:09,359 think follow Ambassador Bolton's prescription of escalating this. I'm sure 356 00:24:09,519 --> 00:24:12,079 all of those options are under discussion in the White 357 00:24:12,079 --> 00:24:13,279 House right now. 358 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:19,079 Speaker 1: However, on the other side of this conversation, Adam Smith 359 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:23,200 is the ranking member of the Armed Services Committee, number 360 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:26,440 two guy on the committee. He's a Democrat, he represents 361 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,240 part of Seattle. He doesn't want anything to do with 362 00:24:29,519 --> 00:24:30,640 war and Iran. 363 00:24:31,559 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 7: I don't think we should get involved militarily. I think 364 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,880 engaging regime change, dragging ourselves into a war in the 365 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:42,680 Middle East, another war in the Middle East is incredibly 366 00:24:42,759 --> 00:24:47,240 dangerous and expense that the US shouldn't engage in, and 367 00:24:47,279 --> 00:24:50,240 an enormous risk with as I said, uncertain outcomes. 368 00:24:50,519 --> 00:24:54,519 Speaker 1: Yes, it is dangerous, it is expensive, and there are 369 00:24:54,640 --> 00:25:02,640 uncertain outcomes, but that's classic left thinking. Tim Sheehy, who's 370 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:07,599 a Senator from Montana, former Navy seal, has a different view. 371 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 8: Well, whether we like it or not. Iran's been at 372 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:14,000 war with US for forty seven years. They've been hunting down, murdering, torturing, 373 00:25:14,039 --> 00:25:16,720 and slaughtering Americans all over the world, from the nineteen 374 00:25:16,759 --> 00:25:19,319 eighty three Bay of Barracks bombing, through our wars in 375 00:25:19,319 --> 00:25:22,359 Iraq and Afghanistan to of course, how this regime started. 376 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,759 Let's not forget how the Eyetos regimes started by taking 377 00:25:24,799 --> 00:25:27,680 our embassy hostage and holding hundreds of Americans hostage for 378 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:31,599 a year and a half. So this regime's literal foreign policy. 379 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,400 It is death to America, they chanted every day, and 380 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,279 they back up those chants with actions by actually killing 381 00:25:37,319 --> 00:25:40,440 Americans and fueling global terror networks. They're the largest state 382 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,000 sponsor of terror in the world. 383 00:25:42,319 --> 00:25:45,519 Speaker 3: After think of the threat about towards President from. 384 00:25:47,039 --> 00:25:48,960 Speaker 8: That's nothing new that they've been threatening to kill our 385 00:25:49,039 --> 00:25:52,440 leaders again for years. So the fact that the people 386 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:54,920 of Iran are now taking to the streets an overwhelming 387 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:57,960 display that they are ready for this regime to go away. 388 00:25:58,079 --> 00:26:00,640 It's not our job to go and conduct change, but 389 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:02,920 we should help these people take out the trash. And 390 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,119 I think I fully support the president's action as he 391 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,279 decides to get involved and help tip the scales here. 392 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,680 It's high time we finally get rid of this murder's regime. 393 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:12,519 We've been placating them for far too long. You're like 394 00:26:12,519 --> 00:26:14,400 a hobo on LSD with a knife in the street 395 00:26:14,559 --> 00:26:16,960 and everyone stands back, not wanting to touch them. The 396 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,160 reality is they're trying to kill us every day. It's 397 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,519 about time we knock this guy out. And I hope 398 00:26:21,559 --> 00:26:23,359 the people have rank at the full support they need. 399 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:27,599 One more from the military. General Philip Breedlove, four star 400 00:26:27,799 --> 00:26:31,720 retired Air Force general. He served in a lot of 401 00:26:31,839 --> 00:26:36,960 air battles and his view on going to war with Iran, well, 402 00:26:37,039 --> 00:26:38,039 let's check in with them. 403 00:26:38,519 --> 00:26:41,200 Speaker 9: I don't think that we have missed the window, and 404 00:26:41,319 --> 00:26:45,000 I guess I wouldn't use the strike language that you did. 405 00:26:45,039 --> 00:26:49,400 That there was a clear window. We can affect what's 406 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:53,640 going on in Iran, but there are limitations to what 407 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:57,200 we can do. I'm really happy today to hear that 408 00:26:57,279 --> 00:27:00,920 the UN is finally taking this up. I've said several 409 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,680 times that this is a world's problem. What's going on 410 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:09,000 with the people of Iran. It's not just a US problem. 411 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:12,160 Speaker 1: So last night the Foreign Minister of Iran was on 412 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:17,039 Fox talking to bred Behar and said, it's Israel's fault. 413 00:27:17,279 --> 00:27:21,200 Israel is the one who's in there shooting at all 414 00:27:21,279 --> 00:27:25,680 these people, these Iranian citizens. It's not Iran doing it, 415 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:29,559 it's Israel, and nobody believes it. 416 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:33,160 Speaker 9: The Foreign Minister, of course, is putting up a brave face. 417 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:37,559 The people that understand the most about the success of 418 00:27:37,599 --> 00:27:42,160 that mission was the military of Iran and of the regime, 419 00:27:42,799 --> 00:27:46,799 because they were dealt a severe blow. And in fact, 420 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:52,279 we could have the coalition, the Israelis, the United States 421 00:27:52,319 --> 00:27:57,680 and others could have continued to eliminate the military capability 422 00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:00,599 of Iran, but came to a decision that it was 423 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:05,039 time to stop. And frankly, that's where they sit today. 424 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:09,480 The Spickett could be turned on again if Iran breaks 425 00:28:09,559 --> 00:28:12,880 the promises that it's made to the world. And apparently 426 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:16,759 the promise is our president has heard about. They have 427 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:18,920 stopped this horrific action. 428 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,200 Speaker 1: So we'll see where this goes. But just because the 429 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,839 President all of a sudden did a one to eighty 430 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,440 in the Oval office last night and said no, they 431 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,480 said they're not killing anybody in the hangings have stopped. 432 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,480 I don't know if anybody who believed it. I'm not sure. 433 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:37,160 In fact, I've doubt that the president believed it. And 434 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:42,039 he's lack a dog that doesn't bark. You got to 435 00:28:42,039 --> 00:28:43,799 be careful. I don't know what he's going to do, 436 00:28:43,839 --> 00:28:47,960 but it would not surprise me if there is some 437 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:53,519 sort of military action involving the leadership of Iran. So 438 00:28:53,599 --> 00:28:56,319 these are serious topics. I got one more. I don't 439 00:28:56,319 --> 00:29:01,799 have anybody wait in on this, but I was. It's 440 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:05,960 kind of sad in a way, but I'm not surprised. 441 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:12,680 Sachs Fifth Avenue has filed for bankruptcy. Yes, and you go, 442 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:17,400 how could Sacks Fifth Avenue? They were like the kingpin 443 00:29:17,759 --> 00:29:25,000 of luxury retail. It's it's sad, but they have gone 444 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,720 out there there well, they're still open, but they have 445 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:34,839 collapsed while the rest of luxury retail is growing. They 446 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:38,079 also made a huge mistake a year ago. They went 447 00:29:38,119 --> 00:29:42,440 out and bought Neiman Marcus for a couple of billion dollars, 448 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:46,640 another luxury retailer that was not getting anybody coming through 449 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:50,759 their door. And they also own Bergdorf Goodman. So even 450 00:29:50,839 --> 00:29:53,880 though the higher income people are the ones that are 451 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:58,000 keeping the economy moving and it's growing because of them, 452 00:29:58,079 --> 00:30:05,480 thank you, but not Sacks, not Bergdorf, not Nemon Marcus. 453 00:30:05,519 --> 00:30:09,759 So the three of them are all under the umbrella 454 00:30:09,839 --> 00:30:14,240 of Sacks are all in bankruptcy. This one, I don't know, 455 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,480 probably shouldn't chuckle about it. But did you hear about 456 00:30:19,559 --> 00:30:24,119 the Ford Motor Company employee who got in trouble? Yesterday? 457 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,000 The President was in Detroit. He went to one of 458 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,279 their factories where they make I believe, the F one 459 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:35,119 fifty pickup truck, and so he's being given a tour 460 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:45,160 around the plant and apparently somebody yelled at him pedophile protector, 461 00:30:46,119 --> 00:30:51,039 that's according to TMZ, and it caught the President's ear. 462 00:30:51,119 --> 00:30:54,559 He was obviously a reference to Jeffrey Epstein and the 463 00:30:54,559 --> 00:30:58,359 Epstein story. Like I said, where did that go? It's 464 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:04,079 still out there. But in any case, the President responded 465 00:31:04,599 --> 00:31:09,799 by mouthing back FU and then flipped the middle finger 466 00:31:09,839 --> 00:31:14,519 to the guy. Yes, he gave him, the president, this 467 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:20,519 guy the finger. Yes, that is so Trump. So what 468 00:31:20,799 --> 00:31:23,640 happened was he got in trouble. Detroit Free Press is 469 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:29,039 reporting that the guy that did all of this, what's 470 00:31:29,079 --> 00:31:37,119 his name, I'll give you his name here, TJ. Sabula. 471 00:31:38,039 --> 00:31:42,000 So TJ. The managers called him in and said, TJ. 472 00:31:42,799 --> 00:31:46,359 You are suspended. Now we don't know for how long, 473 00:31:46,559 --> 00:31:49,599 but he has been suspended for doing that. You're not 474 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:52,680 supposed to do that sort of thing. He's a married 475 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:56,599 father of two, he's a member of the United Auto Workers. 476 00:31:57,519 --> 00:32:02,279 And so what happened and is once people found out 477 00:32:02,359 --> 00:32:07,799 that he was suspended, somebody started a go Fundme site 478 00:32:07,839 --> 00:32:13,440 for him. An ass of last night, they had raised 479 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:17,640 eight hundred and ten thousand, seven hundred and sixty five dollars. 480 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:22,559 That was asked of seven thirty last night. The go 481 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:27,480 fund me people confirmed that yep, it's legitimate, and the 482 00:32:27,519 --> 00:32:29,640 money has come in is going to be paid to him. 483 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:35,960 Apparently he said, we greatly appreciate the outpouring of support. 484 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:37,400 I'll bet he does. 485 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:38,839 Speaker 2: So. 486 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 1: I don't know how long it's going to be suspended, 487 00:32:40,759 --> 00:32:43,119 but he just picked up a paycheck for over eight 488 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:49,880 hundred thousand dollars all over yelling at the president. So 489 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:56,599 then also we've got the AG Secretary, Brooke Rollins. She 490 00:32:56,920 --> 00:33:02,279 was talking about how food they're trying so hard to 491 00:33:02,319 --> 00:33:06,440 make it sound like food is affordable. I don't care 492 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:10,839 what you say. Food is not. The ass everything's affordable. Well, 493 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:14,720 so she did this little summary, I'll play it for you, 494 00:33:15,079 --> 00:33:18,279 and she's getting a lot of mockery today. 495 00:33:19,079 --> 00:33:21,440 Speaker 10: I think the question you're asking, and it's a really 496 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:25,640 important one, is while we're asking Americans to reconsider what 497 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:28,839 they're eating, are we actually asking Americans, especially those who 498 00:33:28,839 --> 00:33:30,880 are living on the margins, are we asking them to 499 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:32,799 spend more on their diet? And the answer to that 500 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,880 is no. We've run over one thousand simulations. It can 501 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:40,359 cost around three dollars a meal for a piece of chicken, 502 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:45,200 a piece of broccoli, corn tortilla, and one other thing. 503 00:33:45,359 --> 00:33:47,799 And so there is a way to do this that 504 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:51,440 actually will save the average American consumer money. 505 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:56,759 Speaker 1: So the people that don't like her came out today 506 00:33:57,079 --> 00:34:01,880 and it really was they ran over a thousand and simulations. 507 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,880 I don't know this. It does sound like the Biden 508 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,640 administration about we've looked at the statistics, what's the matter 509 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:11,119 with you? Of course, everything's avertable and and so the 510 00:34:11,159 --> 00:34:15,280 mockery is, you can get for the thousand simulations, you 511 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:20,679 can get for three dollars one piece of chicken, one broccoli, 512 00:34:21,559 --> 00:34:29,000 and one corn tortilla and let them eat cake. It 513 00:34:29,159 --> 00:34:33,639 really was not a very smart thing to do. Doug 514 00:34:33,679 --> 00:34:35,400 Hay was talking about it today, said it's the right, 515 00:34:35,679 --> 00:34:39,559 it's the right, the right topic and Brooke Rawlins is 516 00:34:39,559 --> 00:34:42,559 a pretty good egg Secretary, but it wasn't the way 517 00:34:42,639 --> 00:34:47,199 to No, you can have one piece of chicken, one 518 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:50,519 piece of broccoli, and one cord tortilla, and of course 519 00:34:50,559 --> 00:34:53,480 they started comparing that to whatever rich people would be eating. 520 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:57,440 And finally to to wrap this up on a on 521 00:34:57,519 --> 00:35:05,079 another little smirky story, there's there's a doctor ob GYN 522 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:10,119 doctor that was testifying before the Senate yesterday. Her name 523 00:35:10,199 --> 00:35:14,280 is doctor Nisha Verma and she is a senior advisor 524 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:18,559 to physicians for Reproductive Health and she was in testifying 525 00:35:18,599 --> 00:35:20,679 on some matter. I don't know what it was, but 526 00:35:21,599 --> 00:35:26,880 Senator Ashley Moody, yes, the female senator from Florida, asked 527 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:32,119 her about can a man get pregnant? And she totally 528 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:36,360 dodged it. So the next senator to ask questions was 529 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:42,119 Josh Holly, the Republican from Missouri. He asked her eleven 530 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:48,519 times can a man get pregnant? And she said, I 531 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,639 hesitated because I wasn't sure where the conversation was going 532 00:35:52,039 --> 00:35:55,519 or what the goal was here is doctor Verma. 533 00:35:55,639 --> 00:35:59,159 Speaker 4: Here we go based on the science, can then get pregnant? 534 00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 2: That's a yes or no question? 535 00:36:00,519 --> 00:36:01,159 Speaker 1: It really is. 536 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 4: I think I think you're trying to reduce the complexity 537 00:36:04,519 --> 00:36:04,920 of a lot. 538 00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:07,639 Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm trying to get it's not complex. No, 539 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,800 it's not complex.
