<v Speaker 2>still fighting this cold.

12
00:00:43.399 --> 00:00:45.679
<v Speaker 3>It just drives me nuts.

00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:47.880
<v Speaker 1>You sound pretty good.

14
00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:49.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know what I sounded. I just took some

15
00:00:50.280 --> 00:00:53.240
<v Speaker 2>medication of some kind of some birth control or something

16
00:00:53.479 --> 00:00:56.240
<v Speaker 2>we have in the first aid kit over there. I

17
00:00:56.399 --> 00:00:59.280
<v Speaker 2>just grabb a little envelope and pop it, throw it

18
00:00:59.280 --> 00:01:01.719
<v Speaker 2>at my mouth. So I have no idea what, but

19
00:01:01.799 --> 00:01:05.480
<v Speaker 2>I think I'm gonna be okay. In any case, Let's

20
00:01:05.480 --> 00:01:06.439
<v Speaker 2>start with good mornings.

21
00:01:06.799 --> 00:01:08.760
<v Speaker 3>I don't usually do that. I usually go into some

22
00:01:08.879 --> 00:01:11.040
<v Speaker 3>kind of story of mind. But I really don't have

23
00:01:11.159 --> 00:01:12.519
<v Speaker 3>left all.

24
00:01:12.439 --> 00:01:15.120
<v Speaker 1>Right, even about Sheldon.

25
00:01:16.760 --> 00:01:17.560
<v Speaker 3>It's quite a joke.

26
00:01:17.719 --> 00:01:19.799
<v Speaker 2>I just said we would not this is my that

27
00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:21.959
<v Speaker 2>would be my last day broadcasting.

28
00:01:22.200 --> 00:01:23.079
<v Speaker 3>Oh that joke.

29
00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:24.239
<v Speaker 1>You keep threatening.

30
00:01:24.400 --> 00:01:28.760
<v Speaker 2>You know, my last day is really going to be spectacular.

31
00:01:29.000 --> 00:01:32.200
<v Speaker 2>I mean I told you about Doobie, my friend who

32
00:01:32.280 --> 00:01:33.959
<v Speaker 2>was in his Rael lead the gun's forces. He was

33
00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:37.879
<v Speaker 2>a pilot, he flew F sixteens, and then when he retired,

34
00:01:37.920 --> 00:01:42.040
<v Speaker 2>he went to l all and I knew when he

35
00:01:42.079 --> 00:01:43.959
<v Speaker 2>was going to retire, and I called him and I said, Doobie,

36
00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:49.200
<v Speaker 2>it's your last day flying. You have to go on

37
00:01:49.239 --> 00:01:51.760
<v Speaker 2>the intercom and say, ladies.

38
00:01:51.480 --> 00:01:53.879
<v Speaker 3>And gentlemen, welcome to all. Today.

39
00:01:53.959 --> 00:01:56.439
<v Speaker 2>We'll be flying at thirty five thousand feet, but for

40
00:01:56.519 --> 00:01:58.280
<v Speaker 2>you thirty two thousand feet.

41
00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:01.719
<v Speaker 3>He wouldn't do it.

42
00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:03.239
<v Speaker 1>Such a deal, bastard.

43
00:02:03.280 --> 00:02:04.959
<v Speaker 3>He wouldn't do it. All right.

44
00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:07.280
<v Speaker 1>I didn't just scream into the mic.

45
00:02:10.680 --> 00:02:15.240
<v Speaker 2>We're gonna die, or in a very heavy Arabic accent accent,

46
00:02:15.319 --> 00:02:17.560
<v Speaker 2>go good day, nice.

47
00:02:17.639 --> 00:02:18.560
<v Speaker 3>This is Mohammed.

48
00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:20.840
<v Speaker 1>What are you implying?

49
00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:25.639
<v Speaker 2>I'm being completely what okay?

50
00:02:27.199 --> 00:02:28.240
<v Speaker 1>Is today your last day?

51
00:02:29.199 --> 00:02:30.280
<v Speaker 3>Sounds like it doesn't.

52
00:02:31.199 --> 00:02:34.039
<v Speaker 4>They will start with Hi'm bill handled. There once was

53
00:02:34.039 --> 00:02:35.479
<v Speaker 4>a man from Nantucket.

54
00:02:37.039 --> 00:02:40.879
<v Speaker 2>All right, let us say, emails will keep on coming.

55
00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:46.479
<v Speaker 2>I was once accused. I was sued once, No just once.

56
00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:48.759
<v Speaker 2>I actually I have been sued five times. One every

57
00:02:48.759 --> 00:02:49.400
<v Speaker 2>single time.

58
00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:53.360
<v Speaker 5>Just to let you know, Amy, that doesn't surprise me.

59
00:02:53.599 --> 00:02:57.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm thirty years when I should have been sued. I

60
00:02:57.159 --> 00:02:59.919
<v Speaker 2>was never sued. I had some issues with a couple

61
00:02:59.919 --> 00:03:05.080
<v Speaker 2>of surrogates who unfortunately decided in the midst of their contract,

62
00:03:05.159 --> 00:03:06.960
<v Speaker 2>we have take them all off birth control, of course,

63
00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:09.159
<v Speaker 2>because we get wanted to get pregnant. And one of

64
00:03:09.159 --> 00:03:12.400
<v Speaker 2>the things they can't have sex with their husbands and

65
00:03:12.439 --> 00:03:13.879
<v Speaker 2>boyfriends because.

66
00:03:13.599 --> 00:03:14.560
<v Speaker 1>They might make their own.

67
00:03:14.639 --> 00:03:17.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and that's exactly what happened. A couple of times

68
00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:20.240
<v Speaker 2>they shook the boyfriend or the husband, and even though

69
00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:21.800
<v Speaker 2>they have a contract, is you know, what are you

70
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:24.960
<v Speaker 2>gonna do? And the couple couple could have sued me

71
00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:27.080
<v Speaker 2>easily because I'm the one that chose a surrogate or

72
00:03:27.080 --> 00:03:29.800
<v Speaker 2>my agency did. And I sit down with him, I go, hey,

73
00:03:29.960 --> 00:03:33.319
<v Speaker 2>bottom line is this is my fault. I screwed up.

74
00:03:33.960 --> 00:03:36.439
<v Speaker 2>If you litigate, you're gonna win, no question about it.

75
00:03:36.599 --> 00:03:39.319
<v Speaker 2>But you you want a child, and that's what we're

76
00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:42.759
<v Speaker 2>here for. So I'll tell you what number one on

77
00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:45.039
<v Speaker 2>my waiting list of couples just became number two.

78
00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:46.960
<v Speaker 3>You get a free kid.

79
00:03:48.400 --> 00:03:50.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh wow, that's I thought you were going to do

80
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:51.159
<v Speaker 1>it like half off.

81
00:03:51.240 --> 00:03:54.000
<v Speaker 2>No, no, no, half off is what I should have

82
00:03:54.000 --> 00:03:55.360
<v Speaker 2>done it. But I say, you get a free kid.

83
00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:58.199
<v Speaker 2>And they never sued me. Now, the people that did

84
00:03:58.240 --> 00:04:01.039
<v Speaker 2>sue me are were crazy and I just said no.

85
00:04:01.639 --> 00:04:06.599
<v Speaker 2>And so anyways, I was sued and there was These

86
00:04:06.639 --> 00:04:10.199
<v Speaker 2>were by employees. And one of the women that I had,

87
00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:13.080
<v Speaker 2>this was years and years a year ago, was married

88
00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:16.360
<v Speaker 2>to an African American. I had no idea and part

89
00:04:16.800 --> 00:04:20.160
<v Speaker 2>and I was accused of racism. That's why I fired

90
00:04:20.160 --> 00:04:22.879
<v Speaker 2>her because she was married to an African American, which

91
00:04:22.920 --> 00:04:24.680
<v Speaker 2>is a complete cross because I didn't even know.

92
00:04:24.920 --> 00:04:27.639
<v Speaker 1>Who she was married to. I had, i'm African Americans

93
00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:28.199
<v Speaker 1>working for you.

94
00:04:28.319 --> 00:04:29.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that was the other thing.

95
00:04:29.279 --> 00:04:31.839
<v Speaker 2>I was going to have Marjorie who worked for me,

96
00:04:31.959 --> 00:04:34.319
<v Speaker 2>not my Marjorie, but Marjorie. And I was going to

97
00:04:34.399 --> 00:04:37.240
<v Speaker 2>put her on the stand and say, did Bill ever

98
00:04:37.399 --> 00:04:41.959
<v Speaker 2>mention that you were African American? He goes, I didn't

99
00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:44.199
<v Speaker 2>even know Bill knew I was African American and she.

100
00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:46.439
<v Speaker 3>Worked for me every day. Never came up.

101
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:51.360
<v Speaker 2>So anyway, their lawyer wrote to me, or this woman's

102
00:04:51.439 --> 00:04:57.000
<v Speaker 2>lawyer wrote to me and said, we're suing you for discrimination,

103
00:04:57.199 --> 00:04:59.959
<v Speaker 2>racial discrimination, and he knew I was a talk show host, Abby,

104
00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:03.800
<v Speaker 2>and he said that I'm sure that will affect your

105
00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:06.759
<v Speaker 2>career in a very negative way.

106
00:05:06.800 --> 00:05:10.120
<v Speaker 3>So I suggest that you settle the case.

107
00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:13.360
<v Speaker 2>By the way, that's pure extortion, that's against the canons

108
00:05:13.360 --> 00:05:16.120
<v Speaker 2>of law. I threatened to have him disbarred for that

109
00:05:16.160 --> 00:05:18.279
<v Speaker 2>one if he didn't if it didn't drop the case,

110
00:05:18.279 --> 00:05:21.199
<v Speaker 2>and they didn't. They didn't, and I didn't disbar him

111
00:05:21.199 --> 00:05:23.199
<v Speaker 2>because I figured, you know, I don't want to take

112
00:05:23.240 --> 00:05:26.879
<v Speaker 2>the guys living away. So anyway, he said, so he

113
00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:32.040
<v Speaker 2>writes the letter, our accusation that you are a racist

114
00:05:32.079 --> 00:05:37.680
<v Speaker 2>will affect your career negatively. My lawyer wrote back one line,

115
00:05:38.759 --> 00:05:41.680
<v Speaker 2>get in line, that was it.

116
00:05:44.120 --> 00:05:46.199
<v Speaker 1>Did you tell them that your career was built upon

117
00:05:46.240 --> 00:05:46.879
<v Speaker 1>your racism?

118
00:05:47.000 --> 00:05:50.399
<v Speaker 2>No, no, I didn't say that, but that was it now,

119
00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:52.040
<v Speaker 2>of course, And they tried to bring it up, and

120
00:05:52.040 --> 00:05:53.199
<v Speaker 2>that was bounced immediately.

121
00:05:53.560 --> 00:05:54.800
<v Speaker 3>We made a motion to.

122
00:05:54.759 --> 00:05:58.000
<v Speaker 1>Bounce that because they lost the case.

123
00:05:58.120 --> 00:06:00.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah a couple. We killed them twelve to one, energy

124
00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:03.199
<v Speaker 2>twelve or zero on the jury. But here's a little

125
00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:05.800
<v Speaker 2>tidbit of law. The only way you can sue for

126
00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:10.319
<v Speaker 2>racism is you have to be a protected class. You

127
00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:13.879
<v Speaker 2>have to racism or discrimination is a legal concept much

128
00:06:13.959 --> 00:06:16.879
<v Speaker 2>like Lemon law, and you have to be protected and

129
00:06:16.920 --> 00:06:22.079
<v Speaker 2>it's race, religion, ethnicity, gender, age not so much, but

130
00:06:22.360 --> 00:06:25.560
<v Speaker 2>that's one of the protected classes. Being married to a

131
00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:29.439
<v Speaker 2>protected class does not make you protected. So we bounced

132
00:06:29.519 --> 00:06:34.160
<v Speaker 2>that allegation. Unfortunately, Okay. I wish it had stayed in

133
00:06:34.319 --> 00:06:37.000
<v Speaker 2>and you couldn't lost stories and Bill had.

134
00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:39.000
<v Speaker 3>I lost stories at the same time.

135
00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:42.439
<v Speaker 2>A little bit of law news for you, all right, Amy,

136
00:06:42.439 --> 00:06:44.079
<v Speaker 2>Good morning, Hi Bill. Hi.

137
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:46.920
<v Speaker 3>By the way, don't correct me ever again. When did

138
00:06:46.920 --> 00:06:50.519
<v Speaker 3>I correct you the passport business? When I said during

139
00:06:50.560 --> 00:06:51.480
<v Speaker 3>the promo.

140
00:06:51.600 --> 00:06:53.720
<v Speaker 5>You said you didn't listen to wake Up Call gold.

141
00:06:53.680 --> 00:06:56.160
<v Speaker 2>I told you I do whenever, whenever I when he

142
00:06:56.160 --> 00:06:59.279
<v Speaker 2>hears his name, whenever I can, I do.

143
00:06:59.519 --> 00:06:59.800
<v Speaker 3>Okay.

144
00:06:59.839 --> 00:07:01.720
<v Speaker 5>So it was just a clarification.

145
00:07:01.879 --> 00:07:04.800
<v Speaker 6>You are talking about golden passports and Willy Wonka gave

146
00:07:04.839 --> 00:07:05.920
<v Speaker 6>out golden tickets.

147
00:07:06.000 --> 00:07:07.399
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's not a clarification.

148
00:07:07.600 --> 00:07:11.600
<v Speaker 2>It was a straight out correction, and let's not do that, Okay.

149
00:07:12.199 --> 00:07:13.480
<v Speaker 1>He was making a simile.

150
00:07:13.759 --> 00:07:16.319
<v Speaker 3>Yes, I was actually maybe a metaphor.

151
00:07:16.199 --> 00:07:17.199
<v Speaker 1>Or an illustration.

152
00:07:17.399 --> 00:07:22.000
<v Speaker 2>Maybe maybe all right, Cono, good morning, yeah, and good morning,

153
00:07:23.720 --> 00:07:24.199
<v Speaker 2>and Neil.

154
00:07:24.600 --> 00:07:25.920
<v Speaker 3>Okay, let's do it guy.

155
00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:28.120
<v Speaker 1>Hi Bill, Hi, good morning, sir.

156
00:07:28.519 --> 00:07:31.439
<v Speaker 2>Handle on the news with Amy Neil and me lead story.

157
00:07:34.759 --> 00:07:38.079
<v Speaker 2>All right, Donald Trump issued what he said was the

158
00:07:38.199 --> 00:07:42.879
<v Speaker 2>last warning to Comas to release all of the hostages

159
00:07:43.040 --> 00:07:47.879
<v Speaker 2>in Gaza emediately and if he's and he said, release

160
00:07:47.959 --> 00:07:50.920
<v Speaker 2>them all, the release all the hostages now, not later,

161
00:07:51.120 --> 00:07:53.639
<v Speaker 2>and immediately return all the dead bodies of the people

162
00:07:53.680 --> 00:07:57.160
<v Speaker 2>you murdered, or it is over now here is the

163
00:07:57.199 --> 00:07:59.120
<v Speaker 2>problem for CAMAS.

164
00:08:00.199 --> 00:08:01.399
<v Speaker 3>I would take it seriously.

165
00:08:02.120 --> 00:08:04.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, I think he'd bombs ifness.

166
00:08:04.879 --> 00:08:07.680
<v Speaker 2>Yes, sir, Donald Trump does not screw around. I mean

167
00:08:07.720 --> 00:08:12.079
<v Speaker 2>he'd I mean he's mercurial. You know, thee tariffs were

168
00:08:12.120 --> 00:08:14.519
<v Speaker 2>gonna come in and then three minutes later, I'm gonna

169
00:08:14.519 --> 00:08:17.600
<v Speaker 2>hold him back for a month. Actually the tariffs were

170
00:08:17.600 --> 00:08:19.160
<v Speaker 2>gonna come in, and they held off for a month,

171
00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:21.600
<v Speaker 2>and he changed his mind and go, no, it's kicking

172
00:08:21.639 --> 00:08:23.560
<v Speaker 2>in tonight. Then he said, wait a minute, I'll wait

173
00:08:23.600 --> 00:08:26.120
<v Speaker 2>a month. This is on auto goods. The rest of

174
00:08:26.160 --> 00:08:30.439
<v Speaker 2>it still kicks in, so you know, autos and auto parts.

175
00:08:30.879 --> 00:08:33.000
<v Speaker 3>But on this one, I gotta tell.

176
00:08:32.840 --> 00:08:37.919
<v Speaker 2>You, if I'm Hamas, I'm gonna do something. I'm not

177
00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:39.639
<v Speaker 2>gonna keep on going with this.

178
00:08:39.639 --> 00:08:42.200
<v Speaker 1>So what happens, it's not like we're gonna.

179
00:08:41.960 --> 00:08:44.279
<v Speaker 3>Have no no. What he said was.

180
00:08:46.799 --> 00:08:50.279
<v Speaker 2>That he would send Israel everything it needs to finish

181
00:08:50.519 --> 00:08:54.159
<v Speaker 2>the job, and not a single Hamas member will be

182
00:08:54.279 --> 00:08:56.360
<v Speaker 2>safe if you don't do as I say.

183
00:08:57.039 --> 00:08:59.039
<v Speaker 3>And what he's gonna do is give a green light

184
00:08:59.120 --> 00:08:59.600
<v Speaker 3>to Israel.

185
00:08:59.639 --> 00:09:04.279
<v Speaker 2>The only reason Israel has pulled back at all and

186
00:09:04.399 --> 00:09:07.200
<v Speaker 2>has before now it's mainly because of the hostages and

187
00:09:07.240 --> 00:09:10.559
<v Speaker 2>the pressure from a lot of the Israeli populous population

188
00:09:11.480 --> 00:09:14.519
<v Speaker 2>is the United States has held back Israel.

189
00:09:14.879 --> 00:09:17.080
<v Speaker 3>Come on, you have to you know, during.

190
00:09:16.879 --> 00:09:20.720
<v Speaker 2>The Gulf War, when Saddam Hussein was attacking Israel in

191
00:09:20.720 --> 00:09:24.240
<v Speaker 2>addition to Kuwait, the United States forced Israel to stay

192
00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:28.279
<v Speaker 2>out of it. You do not get involved in attacking Iraq,

193
00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:32.519
<v Speaker 2>even though missiles were hitting Israel. And because we have

194
00:09:32.559 --> 00:09:36.600
<v Speaker 2>an we have a coalition that consists primarily of Arab

195
00:09:36.639 --> 00:09:40.519
<v Speaker 2>countries going against Hussein, and we are not going to

196
00:09:40.559 --> 00:09:45.360
<v Speaker 2>get you involved in this one. And Israel immediately goes okay, okay, okay, okay, Well,

197
00:09:45.440 --> 00:09:50.919
<v Speaker 2>now it's go to town, decimate Gaza, and we're gonna

198
00:09:50.960 --> 00:09:53.360
<v Speaker 2>do everything we can to help you. And he's saying

199
00:09:53.360 --> 00:09:58.759
<v Speaker 2>that to Nettine, Oh bad for Hamas very bad.

200
00:09:59.360 --> 00:10:02.840
<v Speaker 5>All right, So cal Edison sued again.

201
00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:08.480
<v Speaker 6>Los Angeles County is suing Southern California Edison, and so

202
00:10:07.879 --> 00:10:10.919
<v Speaker 6>is so are the cities of Pasadena and Sierra Madre.

203
00:10:11.679 --> 00:10:16.559
<v Speaker 6>It's the latest lawsuit claiming that Edison's equipment caused the

204
00:10:16.600 --> 00:10:20.639
<v Speaker 6>fire and Eaton Canyon, which ended up destroying about nine

205
00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:23.919
<v Speaker 6>thousand homes, killing seventeen people. More than forty lawsuits have

206
00:10:23.960 --> 00:10:27.039
<v Speaker 6>been filed against the utility so far. The attorney for

207
00:10:27.159 --> 00:10:30.399
<v Speaker 6>the county says, all evidence is pointing to them.

208
00:10:30.679 --> 00:10:33.639
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, now I have a question, and as I said

209
00:10:34.399 --> 00:10:36.480
<v Speaker 2>before all of this is done, we have to look

210
00:10:36.519 --> 00:10:38.720
<v Speaker 2>at it the evidence. So, so the evidence now is pointing

211
00:10:38.759 --> 00:10:45.080
<v Speaker 2>towards Edison, and the allegation is they either should have

212
00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:50.799
<v Speaker 2>maintained their equipment so it didn't do this, or done

213
00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:55.799
<v Speaker 2>a preemptive shutdown of the electrical system, so deactivate the

214
00:10:55.840 --> 00:10:58.960
<v Speaker 2>electrical system. So let me ask you, when fires are

215
00:10:59.039 --> 00:11:02.759
<v Speaker 2>hitting across the where winds of one hundred miles per

216
00:11:02.799 --> 00:11:08.799
<v Speaker 2>hour are going across the entire Edison area, the only

217
00:11:08.840 --> 00:11:13.240
<v Speaker 2>way that it really would have stopped fires from starting

218
00:11:13.320 --> 00:11:15.519
<v Speaker 2>or at least moving forward.

219
00:11:15.159 --> 00:11:17.799
<v Speaker 3>As if it was started by an electrical.

220
00:11:17.840 --> 00:11:20.759
<v Speaker 2>Power a power line going down or a transmission tower

221
00:11:21.080 --> 00:11:25.320
<v Speaker 2>would have been to deactivate the entire system. No one

222
00:11:25.360 --> 00:11:28.159
<v Speaker 2>would have electricity. How many lawsuits would come as a

223
00:11:28.159 --> 00:11:31.799
<v Speaker 2>result of that? When for two days done?

224
00:11:32.120 --> 00:11:34.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but maybe it's not that cut and dry. Maybe

225
00:11:34.200 --> 00:11:35.480
<v Speaker 1>there was precedent.

226
00:11:35.559 --> 00:11:39.240
<v Speaker 4>Maybe somebody had called on and seen sparks before, like

227
00:11:39.279 --> 00:11:39.840
<v Speaker 4>we had heard.

228
00:11:40.120 --> 00:11:42.639
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but by then it's but by then it becomes

229
00:11:42.679 --> 00:11:45.600
<v Speaker 2>too late because it was across the board. It was

230
00:11:45.600 --> 00:11:47.080
<v Speaker 2>one hundred miles the hour. By the way, I'm not

231
00:11:47.080 --> 00:11:50.559
<v Speaker 2>defending Edison. I'm just saying it's a lose lose. There's

232
00:11:50.600 --> 00:11:53.600
<v Speaker 2>nothing they could have done, because if they go one way,

233
00:11:53.639 --> 00:11:54.080
<v Speaker 2>they lose.

234
00:11:54.120 --> 00:11:55.440
<v Speaker 3>If go the other way, they lose.

235
00:11:56.080 --> 00:11:57.480
<v Speaker 1>They need to bury those lines.

236
00:11:57.799 --> 00:12:01.399
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, and what's that going to call? Oh? Just

237
00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:03.080
<v Speaker 3>a dollar or two? All right? Moving on?

238
00:12:04.480 --> 00:12:08.440
<v Speaker 4>All right, you have European leaders. They're getting together once

239
00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:13.080
<v Speaker 4>again to grasp control of the negotiations of the war

240
00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:17.320
<v Speaker 4>in Ukraine. This is all happening today. It's kind of

241
00:12:17.360 --> 00:12:21.399
<v Speaker 4>this frantic tug of war against the US and Russia. God,

242
00:12:21.440 --> 00:12:25.279
<v Speaker 4>I can't believe I'm saying that maybe nearing some sort

243
00:12:25.279 --> 00:12:28.919
<v Speaker 4>of end, heads of twenty seven European Union nations, and

244
00:12:29.159 --> 00:12:34.080
<v Speaker 4>Ukraine's President Zelensky are meeting at a special summit in

245
00:12:34.159 --> 00:12:38.559
<v Speaker 4>Brussels to discuss some sort of path forward in the conflict.

246
00:12:38.799 --> 00:12:41.679
<v Speaker 2>If this keeps on going the way it's going, the

247
00:12:41.759 --> 00:12:44.639
<v Speaker 2>United States will not be allied with Europe.

248
00:12:44.679 --> 00:12:48.000
<v Speaker 3>It'll be a just beyond a rift.

249
00:12:48.960 --> 00:12:51.879
<v Speaker 4>And can you imagine what bizarre times that we're partnered

250
00:12:51.919 --> 00:12:52.639
<v Speaker 4>with Russia.

251
00:12:52.799 --> 00:12:55.759
<v Speaker 3>That's what it looks like. That's what Trump wants.

252
00:12:55.840 --> 00:13:00.039
<v Speaker 4>So you have Republicans upset at anybody who seems to

253
00:13:00.159 --> 00:13:03.759
<v Speaker 4>be a socialist, but it's okay to be with a

254
00:13:04.039 --> 00:13:05.519
<v Speaker 4>dictator communist.

255
00:13:05.519 --> 00:13:07.519
<v Speaker 2>Well, he's not a communist. They don't even pretend they're

256
00:13:07.559 --> 00:13:10.879
<v Speaker 2>communists anymore in Russia. But it's a dictatorship, which Trump

257
00:13:10.879 --> 00:13:15.440
<v Speaker 2>will never admit that Putin is a dictator during the war,

258
00:13:15.480 --> 00:13:19.360
<v Speaker 2>Trump has only said that it is Zelenski who is

259
00:13:19.399 --> 00:13:24.919
<v Speaker 2>a dictator because they bypassed the election. The election for

260
00:13:25.000 --> 00:13:27.519
<v Speaker 2>president has already passed because they're at war, and that's

261
00:13:27.559 --> 00:13:28.960
<v Speaker 2>the way the law works there.

262
00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:33.480
<v Speaker 3>Trump and he says, I trust Putin.

263
00:13:33.960 --> 00:13:37.159
<v Speaker 2>I believe he's going to keep his word on the deal,

264
00:13:37.159 --> 00:13:41.440
<v Speaker 2>even though he hasn't kept once his word with anything

265
00:13:41.679 --> 00:13:45.200
<v Speaker 2>that has come to fruition or any kind of an

266
00:13:45.200 --> 00:13:46.480
<v Speaker 2>agreement that has come to fruition.

267
00:13:46.519 --> 00:13:47.559
<v Speaker 3>He's broken every one of them.

268
00:13:47.639 --> 00:13:48.480
<v Speaker 1>It's a strange day.

269
00:13:48.519 --> 00:13:49.320
<v Speaker 3>It's a strange day.

270
00:13:49.320 --> 00:13:53.679
<v Speaker 2>And the Republicans who heretofore would have screamed at this

271
00:13:53.879 --> 00:13:58.360
<v Speaker 2>are all lining up. They're all lining up. Putin is

272
00:13:58.399 --> 00:14:04.799
<v Speaker 2>our friend, the President is right. Our enemy is Ukraine,

273
00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:08.840
<v Speaker 2>our enemy is well, he hasn't gone that far. But

274
00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:12.559
<v Speaker 2>the rift between the US and Europe, I gotta tell

275
00:14:12.600 --> 00:14:15.679
<v Speaker 2>you it's there's a whole history there where, and there's

276
00:14:15.720 --> 00:14:19.639
<v Speaker 2>an argument that we should not any be the policeman

277
00:14:19.679 --> 00:14:20.120
<v Speaker 2>of the world.

278
00:14:20.399 --> 00:14:21.039
<v Speaker 3>We have gone.

279
00:14:21.120 --> 00:14:24.279
<v Speaker 4>But we're snuggling up to someone. Yeah, yeah, we are

280
00:14:24.399 --> 00:14:27.279
<v Speaker 4>so true. They're building Trump's going to build a hotel

281
00:14:27.320 --> 00:14:29.200
<v Speaker 4>there called Putin on the Ritz.

282
00:14:31.080 --> 00:14:31.840
<v Speaker 3>That's very good.

283
00:14:32.360 --> 00:14:33.960
<v Speaker 1>No, it's not. I'm ashamed of make it.

284
00:14:34.120 --> 00:14:36.440
<v Speaker 2>No, it's very strong. But anyway, it's we're not going

285
00:14:36.519 --> 00:14:38.120
<v Speaker 2>to be allied with Russia. I mean, we're not going

286
00:14:38.200 --> 00:14:40.120
<v Speaker 2>to formally be allied with Russia.

287
00:14:40.279 --> 00:14:41.399
<v Speaker 3>But we're gonna pull back.

288
00:14:42.039 --> 00:14:45.240
<v Speaker 2>We're going to pull back from protecting Europe being part

289
00:14:45.279 --> 00:14:48.639
<v Speaker 2>of NATO because the biggest force in Europe is still

290
00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:53.960
<v Speaker 2>American forces, the biggest NATO forces and matter and ahead

291
00:14:53.960 --> 00:14:59.720
<v Speaker 2>of NATO or head of the military assmen, not the

292
00:14:59.799 --> 00:15:01.559
<v Speaker 2>other part of the administrative part of NATO, but the

293
00:15:01.600 --> 00:15:04.720
<v Speaker 2>head of the military aspect of MEATO is always an American.

294
00:15:05.759 --> 00:15:09.320
<v Speaker 3>Always blocked again.

295
00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:14.480
<v Speaker 6>A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration from making

296
00:15:14.759 --> 00:15:20.480
<v Speaker 6>drastic cuts to medical research funding the new National Institutes

297
00:15:20.519 --> 00:15:23.799
<v Speaker 6>of Health Policy with strip research groups of hundreds of

298
00:15:23.840 --> 00:15:28.600
<v Speaker 6>millions of dollars to cover indirect expenses of studying Alzheimer's cancer,

299
00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:32.440
<v Speaker 6>heart disease, and other illnesses, all the way from clinical

300
00:15:32.440 --> 00:15:36.480
<v Speaker 6>trials of new treatments to basic lab research. US District

301
00:15:36.600 --> 00:15:40.480
<v Speaker 6>judge had temporarily blocked the cuts last month. Yesterday she

302
00:15:40.519 --> 00:15:43.399
<v Speaker 6>filed a preliminary injunction that puts the cuts on hold

303
00:15:43.480 --> 00:15:44.039
<v Speaker 6>for longer.

304
00:15:44.399 --> 00:15:48.639
<v Speaker 5>But they're still working through lawsuits. But the cuts are

305
00:15:48.639 --> 00:15:49.039
<v Speaker 5>on hold.

306
00:15:49.679 --> 00:15:53.759
<v Speaker 3>But this is exactly what the Trump administration has done.

307
00:15:53.840 --> 00:15:59.440
<v Speaker 2>He cuts that spending Alzheimer's research, cancer research, arguing that

308
00:15:59.519 --> 00:16:02.799
<v Speaker 2>it's up to private enterprise to do that. Well, historically

309
00:16:02.799 --> 00:16:05.840
<v Speaker 2>it's been the United States. The polio vaccine was funded

310
00:16:05.879 --> 00:16:10.399
<v Speaker 2>by the United States. The government the United States funded

311
00:16:10.399 --> 00:16:15.679
<v Speaker 2>polio vaccines, it would not have happened today. It's a heartbreaker,

312
00:16:15.720 --> 00:16:17.840
<v Speaker 2>it really is. And then we're going to see an

313
00:16:17.879 --> 00:16:23.639
<v Speaker 2>executive order this morning coming down for the dismantling of

314
00:16:23.679 --> 00:16:28.440
<v Speaker 2>the Department of Education completely. He wants had gone. And

315
00:16:28.440 --> 00:16:31.120
<v Speaker 2>then there's arguments on both sides on that one. How

316
00:16:31.159 --> 00:16:33.039
<v Speaker 2>much waste, how many people do you need? And how

317
00:16:33.080 --> 00:16:35.960
<v Speaker 2>many good programs are there. It's a question of not

318
00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:38.840
<v Speaker 2>only throwing out the baby with the bathwater, but also

319
00:16:38.919 --> 00:16:43.240
<v Speaker 2>throwing out the bathtub and the bathroom and the house.

320
00:16:43.440 --> 00:16:46.320
<v Speaker 4>Well, things have gotten so much better since the seventies

321
00:16:46.360 --> 00:16:47.919
<v Speaker 4>when we instilled this right.

322
00:16:48.000 --> 00:16:49.960
<v Speaker 3>Right, that's the point. That's exactly the point.

323
00:16:50.039 --> 00:16:51.919
<v Speaker 1>Okay, never mind.

324
00:16:52.919 --> 00:16:56.519
<v Speaker 4>The nation's top public health agency says about one hundred

325
00:16:56.559 --> 00:16:59.200
<v Speaker 4>and eighty employees who were laid off two weeks ago can.

326
00:16:59.159 --> 00:17:00.240
<v Speaker 1>Come back to work.

327
00:17:00.720 --> 00:17:01.720
<v Speaker 3>Yay.

328
00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:06.559
<v Speaker 4>They received a message that said read this email immediately.

329
00:17:07.079 --> 00:17:11.880
<v Speaker 4>It said, after further review and consideration, a February fifteenth

330
00:17:12.119 --> 00:17:16.200
<v Speaker 4>termination notice has been rescinded, and the employees were clear

331
00:17:16.279 --> 00:17:18.400
<v Speaker 4>to return to work. They said, you should return to

332
00:17:18.640 --> 00:17:22.960
<v Speaker 4>duty under your previous work schedule. We apologize for any disruption.

333
00:17:23.160 --> 00:17:26.119
<v Speaker 3>Starts with oops. Right, they've done that with medical, that's

334
00:17:26.119 --> 00:17:26.759
<v Speaker 3>the CDC.

335
00:17:27.000 --> 00:17:31.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and you've got food safety, bird flu response, folks oversight,

336
00:17:31.519 --> 00:17:36.319
<v Speaker 2>medical device oversight, nuke's, nuclear weapons, national parks. There's a

337
00:17:36.359 --> 00:17:39.720
<v Speaker 2>lot of oops in those categories, a lot more no oops.

338
00:17:40.440 --> 00:17:42.960
<v Speaker 2>And we'll be talking about that for sure. Matter of fact,

339
00:17:43.839 --> 00:17:47.359
<v Speaker 2>the recision has to do with Elon Musk and Amy.

340
00:17:47.440 --> 00:17:48.319
<v Speaker 2>What else is going on?

341
00:17:48.599 --> 00:17:53.039
<v Speaker 6>Well, apparently Elon Musk is moving beyond doge. He is

342
00:17:53.440 --> 00:17:58.160
<v Speaker 6>joining or at least supporting, backing podcaster Ben Shapiro's Plea

343
00:17:58.240 --> 00:18:01.759
<v Speaker 6>for President Trump two parts, and former Minnesota police officer

344
00:18:01.839 --> 00:18:05.759
<v Speaker 6>Derek Chauvin. Of course, Chauvin was convicted for killing George

345
00:18:05.839 --> 00:18:09.319
<v Speaker 6>Floyd in twenty twenty. He's serving a federal sentence of

346
00:18:09.359 --> 00:18:11.319
<v Speaker 6>twenty one years twenty two and a half years on

347
00:18:11.400 --> 00:18:18.000
<v Speaker 6>state charges. Shapiro, the podcast are very conservative, said on

348
00:18:18.039 --> 00:18:21.400
<v Speaker 6>Tuesday that if you're going to issue pardons, there is

349
00:18:21.480 --> 00:18:24.200
<v Speaker 6>one that should be included in that, and he said

350
00:18:25.160 --> 00:18:27.319
<v Speaker 6>Derek Chauvin was basically railroaded.

351
00:18:27.519 --> 00:18:30.359
<v Speaker 2>Come yeah, innocent. By the way, thank you for using

352
00:18:30.359 --> 00:18:33.559
<v Speaker 2>the word. He's very conservative. You think I would go

353
00:18:33.680 --> 00:18:37.640
<v Speaker 2>way beyond conservative, He said. Chauvin is innocent and it

354
00:18:37.680 --> 00:18:41.400
<v Speaker 2>was a political conviction. By the way, if Trump does this,

355
00:18:41.519 --> 00:18:44.480
<v Speaker 2>which of course he won't, there's no upside for Trump

356
00:18:44.599 --> 00:18:45.000
<v Speaker 2>at all.

357
00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:48.200
<v Speaker 5>No, and there's another round of riots like we had

358
00:18:48.200 --> 00:18:48.920
<v Speaker 5>in twenty twenty.

359
00:18:49.039 --> 00:18:51.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Yeah, so I doubt this is going to happen.

360
00:18:51.559 --> 00:18:55.119
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, but Musk did tweet on X or whatever you

361
00:18:55.160 --> 00:18:57.839
<v Speaker 6>do on X now said something to think about.

362
00:18:57.680 --> 00:18:59.319
<v Speaker 3>Something to think about.

363
00:19:00.480 --> 00:19:03.119
<v Speaker 1>Wow, Okay, I'm sort of speechless.

364
00:19:03.559 --> 00:19:07.680
<v Speaker 4>Trump preparing executive orders as he is wont to do,

365
00:19:07.839 --> 00:19:13.000
<v Speaker 4>telling Education Secretary to dissolve the Department of Education. So

366
00:19:13.279 --> 00:19:17.160
<v Speaker 4>apparently a draft of the executive order calls on Education

367
00:19:17.279 --> 00:19:22.400
<v Speaker 4>Secretary Linda McMahon to facilitate a department closure by taking

368
00:19:22.519 --> 00:19:26.200
<v Speaker 4>all necessary steps and this is important in quotes permitted

369
00:19:26.319 --> 00:19:27.000
<v Speaker 4>by law.

370
00:19:27.119 --> 00:19:30.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well, it's he's not going to be able to

371
00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:33.759
<v Speaker 2>dissolve the Education Department because that was set up by

372
00:19:33.880 --> 00:19:37.440
<v Speaker 2>Congress and would need a congressional approval and would be

373
00:19:37.480 --> 00:19:41.839
<v Speaker 2>subject to the filibuster, so sixty Senate rules, sixty Senate

374
00:19:41.880 --> 00:19:44.079
<v Speaker 2>votes would be necessary. So he's not going to be

375
00:19:44.079 --> 00:19:49.680
<v Speaker 2>able to disband it dismantle it. However, he decides how

376
00:19:49.680 --> 00:19:53.559
<v Speaker 2>many people work there and what they do so he

377
00:19:53.680 --> 00:19:57.799
<v Speaker 2>could effectively dismantle it. And that's a few hundred thousand

378
00:19:57.799 --> 00:20:02.039
<v Speaker 2>people saying goodbye.

379
00:20:03.519 --> 00:20:08.119
<v Speaker 5>Censure. So what I don't understand this whole censure thing.

380
00:20:08.039 --> 00:20:12.480
<v Speaker 6>But Republican Dan Newhouse from Washington has introduced a resolution

381
00:20:12.559 --> 00:20:16.000
<v Speaker 6>to censure Al Green. Of course, Al Green is the

382
00:20:16.440 --> 00:20:20.039
<v Speaker 6>person who stood up during the President's speech on Tuesday

383
00:20:20.079 --> 00:20:23.400
<v Speaker 6>night and was screaming and kind of waving his cane

384
00:20:23.400 --> 00:20:24.640
<v Speaker 6>and then was escorted out.

385
00:20:24.920 --> 00:20:27.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so here's a question. First of all, let me

386
00:20:27.599 --> 00:20:30.720
<v Speaker 2>tell you what censure is. It's a vote by Congress,

387
00:20:30.759 --> 00:20:33.720
<v Speaker 2>and effectively what it says. It's a resolution that says

388
00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:36.119
<v Speaker 2>you've been a bad boy, right, bad boy.

389
00:20:36.200 --> 00:20:37.880
<v Speaker 3>That's it. That's it. So that's who cares.

390
00:20:37.960 --> 00:20:40.480
<v Speaker 2>That's and I would argue if I were Al Green,

391
00:20:40.599 --> 00:20:43.720
<v Speaker 2>I would actually invite this as a badge of honor.

392
00:20:44.720 --> 00:20:46.599
<v Speaker 6>Oh and he said he did say afterward they were

393
00:20:46.599 --> 00:20:48.680
<v Speaker 6>talking to him and he's like, oh, yeah, well, you know,

394
00:20:48.759 --> 00:20:50.440
<v Speaker 6>I did this big deal, but I got to go

395
00:20:50.480 --> 00:20:51.880
<v Speaker 6>work on articles and impeachment.

396
00:20:51.880 --> 00:20:52.519
<v Speaker 3>Now. Yeah.

397
00:20:52.559 --> 00:20:57.000
<v Speaker 2>It's you know who was also censured and was not

398
00:20:57.000 --> 00:20:59.160
<v Speaker 2>not voted to be removed from Congress, which they can do,

399
00:21:00.400 --> 00:21:02.400
<v Speaker 2>is Joe McCarthy with what he did.

400
00:21:02.400 --> 00:21:03.799
<v Speaker 3>They wouldn't go beyond the censure.

401
00:21:05.200 --> 00:21:11.200
<v Speaker 2>And Marjorie Taylor Green, who wouldn't shut up during Biden's

402
00:21:11.599 --> 00:21:15.880
<v Speaker 2>last and last State of the Union, which start screaming.

403
00:21:17.039 --> 00:21:18.680
<v Speaker 2>No one threw her out, No one even asked for

404
00:21:18.720 --> 00:21:20.839
<v Speaker 2>a censure. She was just allowed to heckle and heckle

405
00:21:20.880 --> 00:21:23.640
<v Speaker 2>and heckle and hell she brought props. Yeah, she brought

406
00:21:23.680 --> 00:21:24.599
<v Speaker 2>like cats and stuff.

407
00:21:24.640 --> 00:21:27.440
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, I mean, it's just come on, guy, didn't al

408
00:21:27.519 --> 00:21:33.519
<v Speaker 7>Green have some sexual claims leveled against him years ago?

409
00:21:34.279 --> 00:21:34.440
<v Speaker 2>You know?

410
00:21:34.480 --> 00:21:38.440
<v Speaker 3>I know that he sings. You know that. No, not that.

411
00:21:39.079 --> 00:21:42.000
<v Speaker 3>Oh do I have the wrong al Green? I just

412
00:21:42.039 --> 00:21:43.319
<v Speaker 3>really what.

413
00:21:43.279 --> 00:21:45.519
<v Speaker 1>I remember a scandal of some kind.

414
00:21:45.559 --> 00:21:47.960
<v Speaker 6>I'm trying to google it, and when I put in

415
00:21:48.359 --> 00:21:51.359
<v Speaker 6>al Green and then get to sexual, the next word

416
00:21:51.440 --> 00:21:52.359
<v Speaker 6>comes up his healing.

417
00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:55.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, pretty much.

418
00:21:55.559 --> 00:21:58.759
<v Speaker 6>Okay, he was in two thousand and eight, a former

419
00:21:58.799 --> 00:21:59.960
<v Speaker 6>staffer accused him of sex.

420
00:22:00.480 --> 00:22:02.079
<v Speaker 3>All right, Yeah, everybody's accused espec.

421
00:22:02.079 --> 00:22:03.079
<v Speaker 5>She withdrew the lawsuit.

422
00:22:03.640 --> 00:22:06.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, okay, interesting. Yeah.

423
00:22:07.720 --> 00:22:12.440
<v Speaker 4>US Supreme Court just yesterday cited against the Trump administration

424
00:22:12.640 --> 00:22:16.000
<v Speaker 4>and upheld a lower court's decision to force the release

425
00:22:16.039 --> 00:22:22.079
<v Speaker 4>of nearly two billion in foreign funds if you remember Trump.

426
00:22:22.920 --> 00:22:24.000
<v Speaker 1>Put that on pause.

427
00:22:24.079 --> 00:22:27.400
<v Speaker 4>The nation's High Court ruled five to four rejecting the

428
00:22:27.440 --> 00:22:31.480
<v Speaker 4>Trump administration's request to cancel the foreign aid money, and

429
00:22:31.839 --> 00:22:36.759
<v Speaker 4>Justice Samuel Alito, in his dissenting opinion, wrote that he

430
00:22:36.880 --> 00:22:39.039
<v Speaker 4>was stunned by the Court's decision.

431
00:22:39.279 --> 00:22:41.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, this is going to be a fight across the board.

432
00:22:41.480 --> 00:22:44.720
<v Speaker 2>How much power does the president have? How much power

433
00:22:44.759 --> 00:22:46.839
<v Speaker 2>in the court? You got the conservative members of Congress,

434
00:22:46.839 --> 00:22:49.279
<v Speaker 2>is going to give them unlimited power? This had do

435
00:22:49.880 --> 00:22:53.920
<v Speaker 2>USA two billion dollars had already been allocated by Congress.

436
00:22:53.920 --> 00:22:56.519
<v Speaker 2>Money was there and the President stopped it. Does he

437
00:22:56.599 --> 00:22:58.480
<v Speaker 2>have the right to do that? Does he have the

438
00:22:58.559 --> 00:23:01.880
<v Speaker 2>right to override Congress? And you've got the conservative members

439
00:23:01.920 --> 00:23:07.839
<v Speaker 2>Supreme coursing absolutely. President's power is virtually unlimited and unbridled.

440
00:23:09.519 --> 00:23:12.839
<v Speaker 2>So and there's a bunch of lawsuits coming up in

441
00:23:12.880 --> 00:23:14.319
<v Speaker 2>front of the Supreme Court as to that.

442
00:23:14.519 --> 00:23:18.079
<v Speaker 3>Exactly that issue a.

443
00:23:18.000 --> 00:23:22.160
<v Speaker 6>Little breathing space. President Trump is granting a one month

444
00:23:22.279 --> 00:23:27.200
<v Speaker 6>exemption on the new tariffs on imports from Mexico and

445
00:23:27.279 --> 00:23:30.680
<v Speaker 6>Canada for cars. Trump talked to the leaders of the

446
00:23:30.680 --> 00:23:35.799
<v Speaker 6>Big Three yesterday. For General Mooters in Stillantas and White

447
00:23:35.839 --> 00:23:40.200
<v Speaker 6>House Pros Secretary Caroline Levitt said Trump was very blunt

448
00:23:40.240 --> 00:23:42.480
<v Speaker 6>with them. He said that they should get on it,

449
00:23:42.880 --> 00:23:46.160
<v Speaker 6>start investing, start moving shift production here to the US,

450
00:23:46.799 --> 00:23:49.480
<v Speaker 6>or they are going to pay tariffs.

451
00:23:49.559 --> 00:23:52.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, tariffs on Canadian goods, Canadian parts. You know, a

452
00:23:52.720 --> 00:23:55.480
<v Speaker 2>bunch of cars are manufactured in Canada and especially a

453
00:23:55.519 --> 00:23:59.000
<v Speaker 2>lot of parts. The problem is is that once these

454
00:23:59.000 --> 00:24:04.279
<v Speaker 2>tariffs kick in and Canadian the Ontario Prime Minister with

455
00:24:04.359 --> 00:24:08.279
<v Speaker 2>the State of Ontario the province said within ten days

456
00:24:08.799 --> 00:24:11.119
<v Speaker 2>production in the United States is gonna stop because we're

457
00:24:11.119 --> 00:24:12.000
<v Speaker 2>not We're not giving up.

458
00:24:12.000 --> 00:24:14.839
<v Speaker 3>We'll shut it down. And now whoops.

459
00:24:15.400 --> 00:24:18.000
<v Speaker 2>So I think what Trump is going to say, if

460
00:24:18.000 --> 00:24:24.319
<v Speaker 2>you commit to moving building plants here, moving investment here,

461
00:24:24.720 --> 00:24:25.359
<v Speaker 2>that's enough.

462
00:24:26.160 --> 00:24:27.759
<v Speaker 3>I think he's gonna say I won that.

463
00:24:27.799 --> 00:24:31.759
<v Speaker 2>One problem is is that you know he can arbitrarily

464
00:24:31.799 --> 00:24:35.519
<v Speaker 2>say terrorifts he did yesterday terror or Monday tariffs, we're

465
00:24:35.519 --> 00:24:36.079
<v Speaker 2>going to go in.

466
00:24:36.480 --> 00:24:36.880
<v Speaker 3>Oops.

467
00:24:36.960 --> 00:24:39.680
<v Speaker 2>No, they're not gonna go in. I'm gonna wait a month. No,

468
00:24:40.160 --> 00:24:42.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm not gonna wait a month. I'm gonna make them

469
00:24:42.240 --> 00:24:44.640
<v Speaker 2>happen tonight. I mean that can you can do them

470
00:24:44.640 --> 00:24:47.240
<v Speaker 2>one day, build a factory in one day, Try that

471
00:24:47.279 --> 00:24:49.960
<v Speaker 2>one build or move a car factory in one day.

472
00:24:50.119 --> 00:24:52.319
<v Speaker 2>So what's going to happen is as he said, there's

473
00:24:52.359 --> 00:24:56.000
<v Speaker 2>gonna be it's a little blip. There's gonna be.

474
00:24:56.000 --> 00:24:58.759
<v Speaker 3>A slight adjustment. But Americans are ready for that.

475
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:02.880
<v Speaker 2>Okay, when a new car goes up three thousand dollars

476
00:25:03.920 --> 00:25:09.200
<v Speaker 2>and I'm gonna talk about cars later on, At what

477
00:25:09.279 --> 00:25:10.039
<v Speaker 2>time am I doing that?

478
00:25:12.920 --> 00:25:17.440
<v Speaker 7>Oh that's eight point fifty. Okay, let's move on. This

479
00:25:17.640 --> 00:25:21.359
<v Speaker 7>is a tough one. I mean, restructure, yes, but firing people.

480
00:25:22.480 --> 00:25:26.519
<v Speaker 7>Trump administration is planning to cut tens of thousands of

481
00:25:26.599 --> 00:25:31.799
<v Speaker 7>employees at the Department of Veterans Affairs. This is just

482
00:25:31.839 --> 00:25:33.720
<v Speaker 7>a tough I think we should be doing more for

483
00:25:33.799 --> 00:25:34.480
<v Speaker 7>our veterans.

484
00:25:34.559 --> 00:25:35.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and less.

485
00:25:35.880 --> 00:25:40.119
<v Speaker 2>Now, under the Biden administration, it did expand. The Department

486
00:25:40.240 --> 00:25:43.440
<v Speaker 2>did expand with more services, quicker services, more people.

487
00:25:43.559 --> 00:25:46.839
<v Speaker 5>Didn't that happen in the Trump administration.

488
00:25:46.240 --> 00:25:48.559
<v Speaker 2>First time out, and now it's going to go. Yeah,

489
00:25:48.799 --> 00:25:52.000
<v Speaker 2>Trump kept that policy going. There are a few things

490
00:25:52.039 --> 00:25:55.640
<v Speaker 2>that Trump kept that Biden instituted. Either way, it's not everything.

491
00:25:56.359 --> 00:25:59.359
<v Speaker 2>Now he's gone the other way. Now we're going to

492
00:25:59.440 --> 00:26:00.599
<v Speaker 2>get rid of senty thousand.

493
00:26:00.640 --> 00:26:02.960
<v Speaker 4>But how can you do that to our I mean, well,

494
00:26:03.079 --> 00:26:06.000
<v Speaker 4>quite honestly, I think that should be a main focus

495
00:26:06.039 --> 00:26:09.079
<v Speaker 4>of the homelessness issue, all of those things veterans.

496
00:26:09.240 --> 00:26:10.400
<v Speaker 3>I don't know what's going to happen.

497
00:26:10.440 --> 00:26:13.880
<v Speaker 2>He's gonna argue doge is going to do that because

498
00:26:13.960 --> 00:26:15.799
<v Speaker 2>it's a waste and it's fraud.

499
00:26:16.240 --> 00:26:19.519
<v Speaker 3>See a lot of stuff he's calling fraud is not fraud.

500
00:26:20.279 --> 00:26:20.519
<v Speaker 3>You know.

501
00:26:20.599 --> 00:26:22.960
<v Speaker 5>He may disagree, is inefficiency?

502
00:26:23.359 --> 00:26:28.279
<v Speaker 2>No, or how about just political differences DEI. You may

503
00:26:28.319 --> 00:26:32.880
<v Speaker 2>hate DEI programs granted, and not one of fund DEI programs,

504
00:26:32.920 --> 00:26:34.039
<v Speaker 2>But where's the fraud.

505
00:26:34.400 --> 00:26:36.720
<v Speaker 1>Well, if it's being misused or the money's not going

506
00:26:36.759 --> 00:26:37.839
<v Speaker 1>to where it's supposed.

507
00:26:37.480 --> 00:26:39.279
<v Speaker 3>To, I'm not arguing that. Well, you see, here's the

508
00:26:39.319 --> 00:26:40.200
<v Speaker 3>Trump philosophy.

509
00:26:40.319 --> 00:26:43.880
<v Speaker 2>Is any money going to DEI is misused, Which is fine, Yeah,

510
00:26:43.920 --> 00:26:47.440
<v Speaker 2>that's the right, that's political, But you can't argue it's fraud.

511
00:26:48.680 --> 00:26:51.960
<v Speaker 2>You cannot argue it's fraud there. And that's what's going on.

512
00:26:52.039 --> 00:26:56.839
<v Speaker 2>It's all being lumped together and it has to be differentiated. Okay,

513
00:26:57.119 --> 00:26:59.079
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna go ahead and take a break and come back.
