Okay, it is a girl cast. 13 00:01:03.359 --> 00:01:05.680 I am girrel, silvery glad you are joining me. Look, 14 00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:09.799 we are just getting this TikTok and and Instagram thing going, 15 00:01:10.400 --> 00:01:13.640 and it requires a thirty second lead time to get 16 00:01:13.640 --> 00:01:17.959 the video going. Uh and you know it's it's just 17 00:01:18.040 --> 00:01:20.719 been a mess. So if there's a little problem at 18 00:01:20.760 --> 00:01:22.840 the beginning of the shows for the next week, give 19 00:01:22.879 --> 00:01:27.040 me a little grace please, because quite frankly, it's it's 20 00:01:27.079 --> 00:01:30.239 a lot to work out. We got YouTube, we got TikTok, 21 00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:34.120 we got Instagram. We're going through restream. It's a lot 22 00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:36.680 for one queen to do all on his own. Happy 23 00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:39.400 President's Day. I think we should all stop celebrating it. 24 00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:43.000 And I'm gonna tell you why, you know, quite frankly, now, 25 00:01:43.079 --> 00:01:44.680 I'm gonna give you a little history of it, and 26 00:01:44.719 --> 00:01:48.079 then I'm gonna tell you something that gobsmacked me last night. 27 00:01:48.480 --> 00:01:52.439 I mean, I sat there going Calsa prieze. I was 28 00:01:52.959 --> 00:01:57.120 gobsmacked at what I read. Uh, And you know, before 29 00:01:57.159 --> 00:01:58.760 we talk about it, I just want to say that 30 00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:02.760 it is It's not an accident that most of you 31 00:02:02.840 --> 00:02:06.799 don't know history. It is not an accident that most 32 00:02:06.879 --> 00:02:10.120 of you don't understand the actual workings of our nation 33 00:02:10.680 --> 00:02:14.080 and what our founders had in mind, what the Constitution 34 00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:17.919 really is about. It's not an accident that you get 35 00:02:17.960 --> 00:02:22.080 bored nowadays if someone tries to explain something, or if 36 00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:24.479 there's a two thousand word article in front of you 37 00:02:24.560 --> 00:02:27.000 that you don't want to read it, they and I 38 00:02:27.039 --> 00:02:31.439 mean the people in power have specifically targeted your attention 39 00:02:31.639 --> 00:02:36.639 span to make it shorter. That's what social media is about, 40 00:02:36.759 --> 00:02:41.360 that's what regular mainstream media is now about. Everything has 41 00:02:41.400 --> 00:02:43.479 to be a minute long, Everything has to be one 42 00:02:43.560 --> 00:02:46.479 hundred and forty characters, or you just move on. You're 43 00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:52.800 the problem. You let that happen, okay, and we should 44 00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:54.800 not be letting it happen. I was just telling my 45 00:02:54.800 --> 00:02:57.680 friend Lorena, who's here helping me clean. You know, I 46 00:02:57.879 --> 00:03:00.439 handwrite in a journal because they want want us to 47 00:03:00.479 --> 00:03:03.719 forget how to communicate. They don't want us to be 48 00:03:03.719 --> 00:03:06.120 able to handwrite each other should the power go out, 49 00:03:06.319 --> 00:03:08.560 should a computer go down. They don't want us to 50 00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:12.599 be able to freely communicate, and so they have dumbed 51 00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:16.159 us down. And part of that is your attention span, 52 00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:20.919 you know, actually paying attention to someone or something that 53 00:03:21.000 --> 00:03:25.360 goes on longer than ninety seconds. So when I read 54 00:03:25.360 --> 00:03:28.120 this last night when I was doing research for the show, 55 00:03:28.800 --> 00:03:34.080 I went crazy, and I went so crazy that I 56 00:03:34.120 --> 00:03:37.080 actually called friends at nine o'clock at night in my 57 00:03:37.199 --> 00:03:41.080 excitement about what I had read. So let's just get 58 00:03:41.159 --> 00:03:44.479 right into it. Let's start sharing right away. So today 59 00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:47.639 is President's Day, and for those of you of a 60 00:03:47.639 --> 00:03:51.280 certain age, myself included, you know that today is really 61 00:03:51.680 --> 00:03:56.960 Washington's birthday, which was February twenty second, and in eighteen 62 00:03:57.400 --> 00:04:01.840 forty five, I believe it was we started to honor 63 00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:07.800 George Washington by closing down DC. The city named after 64 00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:13.199 George Washington. Okay, Washington, DC is named after George Washington. 65 00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:19.000 Our capital is named after George Washington. Okay. He was 66 00:04:19.040 --> 00:04:23.040 the most popular man of his time. In fact, Congress 67 00:04:23.079 --> 00:04:27.279 asked him a question that Donald Trump would love, which 68 00:04:27.360 --> 00:04:31.560 is would you like to be president for life? And 69 00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:36.000 George Washington turned it down. He said, no, remember you 70 00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:38.160 get up there. I'm busy doing a show. Honey, I 71 00:04:38.199 --> 00:04:40.160 can't lift you up. Oh dear god, y'all have to 72 00:04:40.199 --> 00:04:42.439 wait a minute. I have to walk off camera. My 73 00:04:42.519 --> 00:04:46.639 dog meets me up. We go okay, because she is 74 00:04:46.639 --> 00:04:51.319 the ruler of this roost. So George Washington was the 75 00:04:51.319 --> 00:04:54.199 most popular president. He was the first, but he was 76 00:04:54.240 --> 00:04:56.720 so popular that Congress said, do you want to be 77 00:04:56.759 --> 00:05:00.800 president for life? People love you? And he was like, 78 00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:03.519 uh no, we just got out from under a king 79 00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:07.680 and I'm not going to become a new one. So 80 00:05:07.759 --> 00:05:11.160 he walked away from power, which Andrew Howard, my late husband, 81 00:05:11.199 --> 00:05:14.439 thought made him the greatest man around. See that's the 82 00:05:14.519 --> 00:05:18.680 difference between great men like George Washington and weak, horrible 83 00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:23.560 men like Orangina. George Washington had the power. He had 84 00:05:23.600 --> 00:05:28.000 the power, and he turned it in. He said, no, 85 00:05:28.360 --> 00:05:31.639 you know what, I'm sorry, but we just got rid 86 00:05:31.639 --> 00:05:34.720 of a dictator. I'm not going to become one. So 87 00:05:34.800 --> 00:05:37.399 he turned down being president for life. Turned it down. 88 00:05:38.680 --> 00:05:44.199 And then so I was researching President's Day, I said, okay, 89 00:05:44.839 --> 00:05:48.079 why do we celebrate it? So we celebrated because they 90 00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:52.040 wanted to celebrate George Washington's birthday, which was February twenty second. 91 00:05:52.800 --> 00:05:56.480 So President's Day up until nineteen sixty eight was on 92 00:05:56.600 --> 00:06:01.639 February twenty second. Okay. Then in nineteen sixty eight, when 93 00:06:01.639 --> 00:06:05.079 I was six years old, Congress did the Monday Holiday Bill, 94 00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:08.399 and that made all federal holidays fall on a Monday, 95 00:06:08.399 --> 00:06:11.199 so there'd be three day weekends. So suddenly we moved 96 00:06:11.279 --> 00:06:15.040 Washington's birthday to a Monday, the third Monday of February, 97 00:06:15.480 --> 00:06:18.600 meaning it would never really fall on his birthday February 98 00:06:18.600 --> 00:06:22.920 twenty second. So we went along with Washington's Day for 99 00:06:23.000 --> 00:06:27.600 a while, and then retail and the news media started 100 00:06:27.600 --> 00:06:31.920 calling it President's Day instead of Washington's birthday, and they 101 00:06:31.959 --> 00:06:36.240 started throwing Abraham Lincoln into the mix. Now, Abraham Lincoln 102 00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:40.879 was born on February twelfth, so it seemed okay, they 103 00:06:40.959 --> 00:06:44.279 both got February. You know, they're both presidents of sum Renow, 104 00:06:45.079 --> 00:06:48.079 so that's fine. But let's not forget that it really 105 00:06:48.199 --> 00:06:52.399 is Washington's birthday that we are celebrating today. They also 106 00:06:52.480 --> 00:06:57.399 now throw Jefferson into the mix, so they'll celebrate Jefferson, 107 00:06:57.639 --> 00:07:02.480 Lincoln and Washington. Washington, however, is the reason for the season. 108 00:07:02.560 --> 00:07:05.839 He's the reason for the day. He's who we named 109 00:07:05.839 --> 00:07:09.040 our capital after. He's who we put on money. So 110 00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:11.560 when I found this out that today is really about 111 00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:15.600 George Washington, some Abraham Lincoln and Thomas Jefferson, but really 112 00:07:15.639 --> 00:07:19.079 about George Washington, I wanted to know more. Andrew was 113 00:07:19.079 --> 00:07:22.800 the expert, not me. So I said to chat GPT. 114 00:07:24.600 --> 00:07:29.399 Was George Washington a member of a political party? Was he? 115 00:07:30.240 --> 00:07:33.759 Do any of you know anyone in the chat room? No, Yes, 116 00:07:33.959 --> 00:07:36.720 Washington had slaves. They all did. Every man of that 117 00:07:36.800 --> 00:07:40.920 era had slaves. That doesn't you know. Were they flawed? 118 00:07:41.160 --> 00:07:44.519 Yes they were flawed, But were they brilliant? Yeah? They 119 00:07:44.519 --> 00:07:48.439 were brilliant. So what do you any of you know? 120 00:07:48.600 --> 00:07:56.879 If Washington was a member of a political party, he 121 00:07:57.000 --> 00:08:00.240 wasn't he was not a member of a political party, 122 00:08:01.319 --> 00:08:07.639 and he actually opposed political parties. He didn't believe in them, 123 00:08:08.399 --> 00:08:12.800 and he wrote something. He felt so strongly about this 124 00:08:13.519 --> 00:08:16.800 that in his and address, in his farewell Address to 125 00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:21.319 the Nation in seventeen ninety six, he took a great 126 00:08:21.759 --> 00:08:28.319 deal of time to talk about political parties. Now, remember, 127 00:08:28.439 --> 00:08:33.960 today is the day we celebrate George Washington and his birthday. 128 00:08:34.960 --> 00:08:38.759 Today is the day we celebrate Lincoln and Jefferson. But 129 00:08:38.840 --> 00:08:42.799 do you really know what these people stood for outside 130 00:08:42.840 --> 00:08:45.360 of the fact that they owned slaves? Do you really 131 00:08:45.440 --> 00:08:50.000 know what George Washington felt about the very nation that 132 00:08:50.120 --> 00:08:53.000 he was the first president of. He's on our money. 133 00:08:54.600 --> 00:08:59.639 He is an enormously important person to America. But do 134 00:08:59.639 --> 00:09:03.559 you have any idea how he felt about the government 135 00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:07.759 that he helped set up? The banking system that we 136 00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:12.679 know would not exist without Washington. He and Alexander Hamilton 137 00:09:12.840 --> 00:09:16.720 set it up along with Madison. Did you know that? 138 00:09:18.360 --> 00:09:22.919 Did you know that under him two political parties formed, 139 00:09:23.840 --> 00:09:30.639 the Federalist Party and the Democratic Republican Party. The Democratic 140 00:09:30.679 --> 00:09:37.600 Republican Party led by Thomas Jefferson, the Federalists led by Madison. 141 00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:39.679 I believe I'll have to look it up. I believe 142 00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:42.960 it was Madison, could have been Hamilton. I'll look it up. 143 00:09:44.360 --> 00:09:48.399 But these parties were very different. And I'm going to 144 00:09:48.480 --> 00:09:52.480 tell you what George Washington, whose day we celebrate, had 145 00:09:52.519 --> 00:09:55.480 to say.

Okay, So I'm researching President's Day. I find 162 00:11:04.440 --> 00:11:08.799 out that it's really about George Washington, that's his birthday. 163 00:11:10.039 --> 00:11:12.600 I asked chat GPT, was he a member of a 164 00:11:12.600 --> 00:11:17.039 political party? It said, oh no, no, Not only was 165 00:11:17.080 --> 00:11:20.879 he not a member, he didn't approve. So then I 166 00:11:20.960 --> 00:11:26.440 simply asked chat GPT what were George Washington's What was 167 00:11:26.480 --> 00:11:31.279 his stance on political parties? And it said in his 168 00:11:31.480 --> 00:11:35.919 farewell speech of seventeen ninety six, this is what he 169 00:11:36.000 --> 00:11:39.279 had to say. I want you to listen to this, 170 00:11:40.120 --> 00:11:44.919 and I want you to listen to it closely. All right. 171 00:11:45.240 --> 00:11:50.919 George Washington on political parties, feared four big things. He 172 00:11:50.960 --> 00:11:56.799 feared division and factionalism. Washington feared parties would turn Americans 173 00:11:56.960 --> 00:12:02.480 against each other, leading to conflict and weakening national security 174 00:12:02.519 --> 00:12:08.879 and unity. Washington warned that loyalty to a party over 175 00:12:08.919 --> 00:12:15.240 the country would create unnecessary rivalries. Washington thought it would 176 00:12:15.240 --> 00:12:19.399 be a threat to government stability. He believed political parties 177 00:12:19.440 --> 00:12:23.320 would seek power for themselves rather than serve the people. 178 00:12:24.480 --> 00:12:28.879 He worried that one party could dominate, leading to tyranny 179 00:12:29.360 --> 00:12:34.720 or government corruption. He worried about foreign influence and manipulation, 180 00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:39.120 saying that parties could make the US vulnerable to foreign 181 00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:45.960 nations interfering in domestic affairs by exploiting political divisions, and 182 00:12:46.039 --> 00:12:49.759 he worried about an erosion of trust, saying that parties 183 00:12:49.799 --> 00:12:56.519 would encourage misinformation, deceit, and extreme partisanship, making it harder 184 00:12:56.879 --> 00:13:09.120 for citizens to trust their leaders. Oh my god, every 185 00:13:09.159 --> 00:13:16.159 single thing that Washington feared political parties would do is 186 00:13:16.240 --> 00:13:23.480 happening right now as we speak. There is not one 187 00:13:23.600 --> 00:13:29.559 thing in his farewell address that has not come to pass. 188 00:13:30.120 --> 00:13:33.519 He feared we would turn Americans against each other, leading 189 00:13:33.559 --> 00:13:39.799 to conflict and weakening national unity. There is no national unity. 190 00:13:40.759 --> 00:13:46.840 Twenty four percent of Americans, twenty four percent decided to 191 00:13:46.919 --> 00:13:51.120 vote for a fellon criminal and about twelve percent already regretted. 192 00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:58.639 And that struck a wedge in between everything because of 193 00:13:58.679 --> 00:14:04.960 their extreme iceology, their bigotry, their hatred, and their white supremacy. 194 00:14:06.480 --> 00:14:10.200 And that party is MAGA and the GOP. They are 195 00:14:10.240 --> 00:14:15.799 one and the same. The GOP is now MAGA. So 196 00:14:15.840 --> 00:14:19.120 if I refer to the GOP, I'm referring to MAGA 197 00:14:19.639 --> 00:14:24.080 because no member of the Republican Party has the balls 198 00:14:24.120 --> 00:14:27.840 to stand up to Mecca. By the way, the Republican Party, 199 00:14:28.559 --> 00:14:31.879 it didn't start until eighteen forty five, and what was 200 00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:37.720 its sole purpose the Republican Party to stop slavery. That 201 00:14:37.879 --> 00:14:41.559 is the only reason that the Republican Party came into existence. 202 00:14:41.960 --> 00:14:46.559 Before that, they were part of the Democratic Republican Party 203 00:14:46.840 --> 00:14:52.039 of Thomas Jefferson. A group of them were really against slavery, 204 00:14:52.159 --> 00:14:56.799 not for altruism, some were abolitionists, but for money. There 205 00:14:56.799 --> 00:15:00.200 had been a law that passed that said states could 206 00:15:00.279 --> 00:15:04.240 decide if they wanted to have slavery or not, and 207 00:15:04.519 --> 00:15:08.320 a group of the Democrat Republicans said, we cannot have 208 00:15:08.360 --> 00:15:13.279 slavery at all period. And their reason was business. If 209 00:15:13.320 --> 00:15:16.480 you're in the North, you can't compete with the South 210 00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:20.799 in terms of goods and services because they get free labor. 211 00:15:21.840 --> 00:15:25.559 And if the Western states were allowed, as they developed, 212 00:15:25.559 --> 00:15:28.759 to have slaves, then again the North would not be 213 00:15:28.879 --> 00:15:34.639 able to compete with them financially. Also, Southern Democrats were 214 00:15:34.759 --> 00:15:40.799 very rich because of slave owning, and Southern Democrats were 215 00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:44.679 in the halls of Congress, and they didn't want elite 216 00:15:45.200 --> 00:15:50.879 rich people to populate Congress. So they worried that if 217 00:15:50.919 --> 00:15:54.919 slavery remained legal, or if states allowed slavery, that there 218 00:15:54.919 --> 00:15:59.799 would be rich slave owners in Congress. And the original 219 00:16:00.080 --> 00:16:05.080 Publican Party did not want that. So the only reason 220 00:16:05.120 --> 00:16:09.919 the Republican Party was formed was to end slavery, and 221 00:16:10.039 --> 00:16:14.840 the Jefferson's Party, the Democratic Republican Party, allowed them to 222 00:16:14.919 --> 00:16:18.840 take the name Republican with them as they broke off 223 00:16:18.840 --> 00:16:23.320 into a third party, although the Federalists were waning by 224 00:16:23.360 --> 00:16:28.320 that point. So then the two parties became the Democratic 225 00:16:28.360 --> 00:16:31.240 Party and the Republican Party. But they were both once 226 00:16:31.279 --> 00:16:34.159 in the same thing, just like all Christians were once 227 00:16:34.240 --> 00:16:41.039 Jews and that's all they started for, and Republicans were 228 00:16:41.039 --> 00:16:45.559 once the Democrats of their time. They're the ones that 229 00:16:45.759 --> 00:16:50.240 you know. Abraham Lincoln donated public lands for use for 230 00:16:50.399 --> 00:16:55.039 public universities. He built railroads, he built regular roads. He 231 00:16:55.120 --> 00:16:59.159 believed in infrastructure, he believed in access to education, he 232 00:16:59.240 --> 00:17:03.120 believed in the act abolition of slavery, and he believed 233 00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:07.680 black people should have the right to vote. Abraham Lincoln 234 00:17:08.000 --> 00:17:11.519 was a progressive by today's standards, and he was the 235 00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:18.640 first Republican elected official. So remember, Republicans now are nowhere 236 00:17:18.680 --> 00:17:23.160 near what they were when they started. And so we 237 00:17:23.319 --> 00:17:28.759 have this party that is following everything that Washington worried about. 238 00:17:29.720 --> 00:17:34.400 They have divided us. The Republican stock in trade is 239 00:17:34.440 --> 00:17:37.920 to divide us, and that was his number one worry, 240 00:17:38.640 --> 00:17:45.480 the weakening of national unity, and they destroyed unity. His 241 00:17:45.599 --> 00:17:53.240 other worry was loyalty to a party over country, creating rivalries. Hello, hello, 242 00:17:53.359 --> 00:17:57.200 Josh Holly, Marjorie Taylor Green, Hello, all of these people 243 00:17:57.240 --> 00:18:00.640 that are loyal to Trump and the party and not 244 00:18:00.720 --> 00:18:07.200 to the country. His worst fear. He worried that political 245 00:18:07.200 --> 00:18:10.119 parties would seek power for themselves and not serve the people. 246 00:18:10.599 --> 00:18:16.880 Both parties do that. Both parties want power. Now. Democrats 247 00:18:17.039 --> 00:18:19.759 lie a good lie and say they want party to 248 00:18:19.839 --> 00:18:22.759 help the people, and they do help people when they 249 00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:26.160 are in power. They just don't help all the people 250 00:18:26.200 --> 00:18:29.960 they say they're going to help, like LGBTQ people, like 251 00:18:30.039 --> 00:18:34.400 black people. They talk a good talk, and they blame 252 00:18:34.440 --> 00:18:38.319 Republicans for not being able to do more. He worried 253 00:18:38.359 --> 00:18:42.559 that one party could dominate, leading to tyranny. Hello, we 254 00:18:42.640 --> 00:18:47.119 got Trump meeting with Putin ignoring his European allies. We've 255 00:18:47.119 --> 00:18:50.839 got Elon Musk and the irs. We have got so 256 00:18:51.000 --> 00:18:53.720 much tyranny going on right now. I spoke to a 257 00:18:53.759 --> 00:18:56.200 gentleman this morning at my doctor's office. I asked for 258 00:18:56.240 --> 00:18:58.359 a discount on my Copey and they gave it to me. 259 00:18:58.519 --> 00:19:02.039 Always ask and he said he voted for Trump, but 260 00:19:02.160 --> 00:19:05.200 now he said Trump is off the rails and that 261 00:19:05.279 --> 00:19:07.920 he truly does want to be a dictator. And I 262 00:19:07.960 --> 00:19:10.279 wanted to say, well, you frickin' moron, why didn't you 263 00:19:10.359 --> 00:19:15.559 know that earlier? But yes, one party is dominating and 264 00:19:15.599 --> 00:19:23.359 it has led to cheering. Today as we celebrate washing system, 265 00:19:23.519 --> 00:19:31.599 we should remember his words, remember what he said. Remember 266 00:19:32.160 --> 00:19:34.279 hey Correll here, And I'd like to take a moment 267 00:19:34.319 --> 00:19:37.400 to thank all the patrons of Patreon.

You know what 285 00:20:44.920 --> 00:20:47.079 pisses me off most about all of this is that 286 00:20:47.519 --> 00:20:53.400 both Democrats and Republicans knew about Washington's warning. They knew 287 00:20:54.240 --> 00:20:57.559 what could happen, and not only did they not do 288 00:20:57.640 --> 00:21:01.759 anything to prevent it, they used Washington's warning as a 289 00:21:01.839 --> 00:21:07.440 roadmap as a roadmap to do exactly what they wanted 290 00:21:07.480 --> 00:21:11.880 to do. Divide us, dumb us down, make us fight 291 00:21:11.920 --> 00:21:16.079 amongst ourselves for crumbs while the ruling class, the rich, 292 00:21:16.400 --> 00:21:20.240 the Elon Musk, the Jeff Bezos. Look what they're doing 293 00:21:20.279 --> 00:21:24.240 with gays, that's tyrannical. They have now removed trans people 294 00:21:24.359 --> 00:21:30.160 and the t letter from the Stonewall memorial page. There 295 00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:33.000 was a government page because it's now a national monument, 296 00:21:33.039 --> 00:21:37.039 the stone Wall in where gay pride started, and on 297 00:21:37.119 --> 00:21:40.359 the page for the stone Wall in they have removed 298 00:21:40.440 --> 00:21:43.799 any reference to trans when it was a fucking transperson 299 00:21:43.880 --> 00:21:47.960 that helped start the gay Pride revolution. Marsha P. Johnson, 300 00:21:49.759 --> 00:21:55.160 there is no LGB without the T. Now I used 301 00:21:55.160 --> 00:21:58.119 to be about breaking up all the uh huh. Now 302 00:21:58.200 --> 00:22:01.200 we need unity more than ever. My trans brothers and 303 00:22:01.240 --> 00:22:04.279 sisters are part of my community. You cannot have a 304 00:22:04.400 --> 00:22:09.039 monument to my community and wipe out the tea. And 305 00:22:09.119 --> 00:22:14.160 yet they've done it because they're tyrants, because they're bigots, 306 00:22:14.759 --> 00:22:19.440 because they're ideologues who just want to divide. And it 307 00:22:19.519 --> 00:22:25.160 was all foretold by George Washington, all of it, but 308 00:22:25.279 --> 00:22:27.880 you didn't know. Most of you did not know this. 309 00:22:28.319 --> 00:22:31.200 Most of you did not know that George Washington not 310 00:22:31.279 --> 00:22:34.920 only was against political parties but used his seventeen ninety 311 00:22:34.960 --> 00:22:39.240 six Farewell speech to warn us about their dangers. Most 312 00:22:39.279 --> 00:22:42.000 of you did not know that he thought that parties 313 00:22:42.000 --> 00:22:45.200 could make the US vulnerable to foreign nations interfering in 314 00:22:45.279 --> 00:22:48.839 our business and our elections, as Russia and China now 315 00:22:48.920 --> 00:22:52.640 regularly do. Most of you did not know that he 316 00:22:52.720 --> 00:22:57.119 thought parties would encourage misinformation, deceit, and extreme partisanship, and 317 00:22:57.200 --> 00:22:59.799 make it harder for us to trust our officials, like 318 00:23:00.359 --> 00:23:06.160 news like Meta, like threads, like all of it, like Facebook. 319 00:23:07.880 --> 00:23:11.160 Most of you didn't know that. Most of you didn't 320 00:23:11.200 --> 00:23:15.039 know that. He feared that parties would turn us against ourselves. 321 00:23:15.359 --> 00:23:20.319 His biggest fear that we would hate other Americans. And 322 00:23:20.400 --> 00:23:25.240 yet they have, they absolutely have, and they are a 323 00:23:25.319 --> 00:23:29.599 threat to government stability. The greatest threat to America today 324 00:23:30.319 --> 00:23:32.559 is the two party system. And what do we do 325 00:23:32.599 --> 00:23:36.160 about it? They will never let us unseat them. They 326 00:23:36.200 --> 00:23:39.839 will never the Democrats and Republicans would never let us 327 00:23:39.880 --> 00:23:43.240 disband those parties. But it's the only thing that will 328 00:23:43.240 --> 00:23:47.599 save our government, and they'll never let it happen. So 329 00:23:47.680 --> 00:23:52.000 what do we do. We watch it fall. We watch 330 00:23:52.039 --> 00:23:55.240 it fall. And we know that our founders predicted the 331 00:23:55.279 --> 00:23:58.519 fall if we did not heed their warnings. And so 332 00:23:58.599 --> 00:24:02.200 we should stop celebrating President's Day. MAGA doesn't want to 333 00:24:02.240 --> 00:24:06.759 celebrate today. MAGA does not want the values and views 334 00:24:06.799 --> 00:24:12.599 of George Washington or Thomas Jefferson or Abraham Lincoln. MAGA 335 00:24:12.599 --> 00:24:16.640 would call them names today, would vilify them, would call 336 00:24:16.680 --> 00:24:20.400 them pedophiles and baby killers and all kinds of things. 337 00:24:20.839 --> 00:24:24.400 MAGA would not like Abraham Lincoln giving federal land for 338 00:24:24.480 --> 00:24:30.839 public universities, MAGA wouldn't like Lincoln spending money on infrastructure 339 00:24:30.920 --> 00:24:35.160 to make America stronger. MAGA wouldn't like that Abraham Lincoln 340 00:24:35.200 --> 00:24:39.160 said black people should have equal rights to vote. And 341 00:24:39.200 --> 00:24:43.279 MAGA certainly wouldn't like Thomas Jefferson, who believed in states rights, 342 00:24:43.319 --> 00:24:46.720 states empowerment, who was having an affair with a black 343 00:24:46.759 --> 00:24:49.240 woman and having a child with her. Maga would not 344 00:24:49.440 --> 00:24:56.200 like Jefferson and his liberal views. Jefferson supported France, believed 345 00:24:56.240 --> 00:24:58.839 we should help the people that helped us during the war, 346 00:24:59.119 --> 00:25:03.039 believe that we should get involved in world conflicts as 347 00:25:03.079 --> 00:25:06.960 we try to pull out of Ukraine. Mago would not 348 00:25:07.200 --> 00:25:10.799 like the very three presidents that we celebrate today. So 349 00:25:10.880 --> 00:25:14.359 why do we have the day? And you mark my words. 350 00:25:14.640 --> 00:25:18.920 Trump is going to declare a holiday for himself, mark 351 00:25:19.200 --> 00:25:23.240 my words. Hitler did it, Mussolini did it, Julius Caesar 352 00:25:23.319 --> 00:25:26.519 did it, and Trump will do it. He will make 353 00:25:26.559 --> 00:25:29.680 a holiday a Maga holiday. You wait and see he 354 00:25:29.759 --> 00:25:36.359 will do it. You wait, all right, I'll This weekend, 355 00:25:36.359 --> 00:25:39.359 a lot of entertainment was focused on Saturday Night Live 356 00:25:40.119 --> 00:25:43.160 fifty anniversary. I was alive when it came on the air. 357 00:25:43.200 --> 00:25:46.039 I was twelve years old. So going on thirteen and 358 00:25:46.119 --> 00:25:50.200 nineteen seventy five. I adored Gilda Radner in the original cast. 359 00:25:50.279 --> 00:25:52.160 I don't think there's been a great cast since then. 360 00:25:52.599 --> 00:25:54.799 I think there's been great cast members, but not an 361 00:25:54.960 --> 00:25:58.559 entirely great cast. I think the original cast with the 362 00:25:58.720 --> 00:26:02.079 bet Jane Curtin and Gil Radner and Chevy Chase and 363 00:26:02.559 --> 00:26:06.960 just all of them brilliant. I don't watch Saturday Night Live. 364 00:26:07.119 --> 00:26:09.920 I see some of their skits. I can't bear it. 365 00:26:10.319 --> 00:26:12.480 It's an hour and a half. It's too long because 366 00:26:12.480 --> 00:26:16.359 they're not every skit's not funny. In fact, maybe two 367 00:26:16.480 --> 00:26:18.160 or three hit it out of the park and then 368 00:26:18.200 --> 00:26:22.079 the rest big yawn. The musical special they did was great. 369 00:26:22.160 --> 00:26:24.680 It streams on Peacock if you want to watch it. 370 00:26:24.960 --> 00:26:27.799 Questionable acts I didn't understand, but some were great. Share 371 00:26:27.920 --> 00:26:32.039 looked fabulous like an icon. Lady Gaga's voice sounded incredible 372 00:26:32.079 --> 00:26:36.079 singing a shallow You had Robin with David Byrne. Didn't 373 00:26:36.119 --> 00:26:39.119 understand any of that. Mumford and Son's doing a great 374 00:26:39.200 --> 00:26:42.440 version of La La la la la la la la 375 00:26:42.759 --> 00:26:46.359 It huh. You had the Backstreet Boy singing ah wan 376 00:26:47.000 --> 00:26:50.240 it bad way. So it is a fun. It was 377 00:26:50.279 --> 00:26:52.480 a fun special. Some of it I didn't get Jelly 378 00:26:52.519 --> 00:26:55.200 Roll doing a Johnny Cash thing, didn't get it. But 379 00:26:55.319 --> 00:26:58.319 for the most part it was great. I highly recommend 380 00:26:58.400 --> 00:27:01.720 you stream it three hours of fun music. As for 381 00:27:01.759 --> 00:27:05.920 the special itself, it brought back the greatest hits again. 382 00:27:06.319 --> 00:27:09.559 When they hit, they hit, and certainly some of the 383 00:27:09.599 --> 00:27:14.440 talent Steve Martin a treasure, Martin Short a treasure, bow 384 00:27:14.440 --> 00:27:18.400 And Yang a treasure, you know, some of them not 385 00:27:18.440 --> 00:27:22.839 so treasurable, others Eddie Murphy a treasure, you know. So yeah, 386 00:27:22.960 --> 00:27:27.519 they've They've made the careers of some really incredible people, 387 00:27:28.359 --> 00:27:30.519 but that doesn't mean the show is really incredible. And 388 00:27:30.519 --> 00:27:32.880 now when it hits, it hits great. When some of 389 00:27:32.920 --> 00:27:36.799 their skids hit, they hit big, and god knows, they 390 00:27:36.799 --> 00:27:40.319 haven't been afraid to do political parody. We'll see how 391 00:27:40.359 --> 00:27:43.960 long that lasts because even they fear what's going on 392 00:27:44.000 --> 00:27:47.480 in this country with Trump, and even they have toned down. 393 00:27:48.279 --> 00:27:51.200 They told Chappelle, do not talk about Israel, Gaza or 394 00:27:51.200 --> 00:27:53.880 trans people. They told him before he went out. If 395 00:27:53.880 --> 00:27:57.039 you do, we will cut you. So even they're into 396 00:27:57.039 --> 00:28:00.880 censorship now. But the big weekend, if you love it, 397 00:28:00.960 --> 00:28:03.559 this was your weekend. I never did it, did you? Guys? 398 00:28:03.720 --> 00:28:05.720 Where are you on that?
