So if you're driving, give the other 57 00:02:28.120 --> 00:02:28.840 person space. 58 00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:33.120 Yeah, don't be the tailgate dude. Right now, I do 59 00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:35.879 one of my favorite stories, and I'm gonna I'm gonna 60 00:02:35.919 --> 00:02:39.520 operate because I think it's because I didn't see that 61 00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:41.759 they got injured, So we'll go with that. I had 62 00:02:41.759 --> 00:02:45.560 to drive across South Dakota once. Okay, I've had to 63 00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:49.039 drive across it many a time. But when you drive 64 00:02:49.039 --> 00:02:52.680 across South Dakota, for any of you who've had the pleasure, 65 00:02:53.080 --> 00:02:57.960 it's basically four hundred miles and then wall drug signs, 66 00:02:58.080 --> 00:03:00.360 all the wall drug all the wall drugs signs you 67 00:03:00.400 --> 00:03:03.159 could ever want from the moment you cross in over 68 00:03:03.240 --> 00:03:07.280 in the Minnesota side to when you hit the wall 69 00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:10.719 drug go in westbound and then on the eastbound to 70 00:03:10.759 --> 00:03:13.360 you know, when you crossing from Wyoming until you hit 71 00:03:13.400 --> 00:03:16.800 the wall drug and that's it. And then occasionally and 72 00:03:16.919 --> 00:03:19.599 then it's just a sheet of ice. And it was 73 00:03:19.719 --> 00:03:22.280 a sheet of ice the whole drive. I was driving 74 00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:23.240 to Chicago. 75 00:03:24.360 --> 00:03:25.560 And this. 76 00:03:27.159 --> 00:03:29.319 Band of idiots. You know how you get those speeder 77 00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:31.560 groups or they all speed together. This was the people 78 00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:34.479 speeding on ice group and like eight cars went flying 79 00:03:34.560 --> 00:03:38.439 around me, around like Mitchell, every single one within the 80 00:03:38.520 --> 00:03:41.439 next few miles was in the ditch. Now granted they 81 00:03:41.479 --> 00:03:43.400 were right side up, and nobody looked like they flipped. 82 00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:45.400 They were running around. They were out of their vehicles 83 00:03:45.520 --> 00:03:47.280 staring at it like, oh my gosh, what are we 84 00:03:47.360 --> 00:03:50.439 gonna do? And I'm just like, there you go. So 85 00:03:50.560 --> 00:03:54.199 don't be that guy in the band of marry idiots. 86 00:03:55.280 --> 00:03:57.599 You'll get there, Okay. 87 00:03:58.159 --> 00:04:00.759 You know I shoveled my car out last night. 88 00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:03.400 Yeah, you told you rush teaching me the whole routine 89 00:04:03.400 --> 00:04:04.840 you did, like the whole yeah. 90 00:04:05.960 --> 00:04:08.000 Stuff on a rock salt I gotta leave, no matter what, 91 00:04:08.039 --> 00:04:09.599 I gotta get to work, right. So it's like I 92 00:04:09.639 --> 00:04:11.840 got up at three thirty, like three left at like 93 00:04:11.919 --> 00:04:14.319 three thirty of the defrost. But last night, like going 94 00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:16.360 to bed, it was like super fluffy, and you wake 95 00:04:16.439 --> 00:04:18.879 up this morning and all that fluffed to it's like solid. 96 00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:22.600 Yeah, people, it was the flu. Like it's the snow 97 00:04:22.680 --> 00:04:26.079 you want if you're a kid. Last night, right, a 98 00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:29.120 little probably a little moist, but like you know, the 99 00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:32.560 big chunks, especially against if you have like a light 100 00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:34.959 on outside and you see it coming down and all that, 101 00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:38.439 but also just the worst to drive in so or 102 00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:42.759 land planes in Oh man, are dude, are they going 103 00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:45.759 to be correct on this one? Are they going to 104 00:04:45.800 --> 00:04:47.959 be correct on this plane? This plane up in? 105 00:04:48.199 --> 00:04:48.279 Uh? 106 00:04:48.519 --> 00:04:48.639 Uh? 107 00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:52.560 You know, because we get into this whole d high 108 00:04:52.600 --> 00:04:57.879 thing right like what we're here and there is you 109 00:04:58.040 --> 00:05:01.800 basically have a a woman pilot who was landing who 110 00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:07.360 literally just got qualified on this equipment but was having 111 00:05:07.560 --> 00:05:10.160 you know, it was basically this was part of her training. 112 00:05:10.319 --> 00:05:13.000 And it sounds like the person who was the senior 113 00:05:13.160 --> 00:05:18.360 pilot within that cockpit also didn't have enough reps or 114 00:05:18.399 --> 00:05:21.680 whatever on that type of aircraft and those types of conditions. 115 00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:26.600 And so if you watched it, Russ, did you watch 116 00:05:26.680 --> 00:05:28.839 the video of the plane landing that finally came out. 117 00:05:29.759 --> 00:05:34.160 That thing hits the runway hard, man, hard. There's a 118 00:05:34.160 --> 00:05:36.000 little bit of flare there where you do the are 119 00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:37.800 you're gonna have the back tires hit and they're gonna 120 00:05:37.800 --> 00:05:40.040 have the front tire at at the last moment hit. 121 00:05:40.720 --> 00:05:43.240 Sometimes it's more aggressive than others. If you've been on 122 00:05:43.319 --> 00:05:46.360 a plane more than once, you realize this. That thing 123 00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:49.439 hits so hard. I'm surprised. I'm not surprised. The landing, 124 00:05:49.519 --> 00:05:53.800 you're basically collapse. But now you have this story coming 125 00:05:53.839 --> 00:05:59.199 out where you have passengers on this plane. I guess 126 00:05:59.240 --> 00:06:02.000 they offered them all thirty thousand dollars. It's not supposed 127 00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:04.360 to be binding in any way. They're just like, hey, sorry, 128 00:06:04.399 --> 00:06:06.839 we landed you upside down. How about we give you 129 00:06:06.920 --> 00:06:11.120 thirty k while we figure out what's going on. So 130 00:06:11.319 --> 00:06:16.000 that whole thing is looking crazy. Man, I don't know, 131 00:06:17.319 --> 00:06:20.759 I don't know what they're gonna do, but like, if 132 00:06:20.759 --> 00:06:24.560 you want to create that narrative, it's not looking good 133 00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:28.839 for the airline, at least from a safety standpoint. And 134 00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:32.160 then when you find out that this particular subcontractor or partner, 135 00:06:32.279 --> 00:06:35.600 this endeavor err or whatever you know, put out all 136 00:06:35.680 --> 00:06:42.480 these videos saying like, oh we do unmanned flights, unmanned flights. 137 00:06:43.279 --> 00:06:47.560 If I am fully aware of what happened on Fox 138 00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:53.439 News people, I understand that somebody who calls the show 139 00:06:53.920 --> 00:06:56.240 ended up on Jesse Waters show. I'm aware of it. 140 00:06:58.279 --> 00:07:00.839 We talked to him yesterday on the air about it. Okay, 141 00:07:04.360 --> 00:07:07.480 when I'm tagged in everything, Ross is tagged in everything, 142 00:07:07.680 --> 00:07:15.959 there's no way that we did not know. Okay, Jamal's 143 00:07:16.040 --> 00:07:19.439 video that Elon Musk retw retweeted Jesse. I guess Jesse 144 00:07:19.560 --> 00:07:22.240 Waters had it on his show. I didn't see it live, 145 00:07:22.360 --> 00:07:24.000 but I did see one of the little clips there, 146 00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:28.160 so and then we got tagged on it and then 147 00:07:28.319 --> 00:07:30.959 so yesda, I'm like, why is the Twitter on fire? 148 00:07:31.079 --> 00:07:32.600 What the hell is going on? And then then I 149 00:07:32.680 --> 00:07:37.560 realized what it was? So yes, got it, got it, 150 00:07:37.639 --> 00:07:37.879 got it? 151 00:07:37.959 --> 00:07:38.199 Got it? 152 00:07:38.399 --> 00:07:39.639 Okay, all right, very good? 153 00:07:41.000 --> 00:07:41.560 Where was I? 154 00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:45.000 Oh? Yeah, so, like you know, you make it. They 155 00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:49.040 have all these videos they're like, we do unmanned flights. Ross, 156 00:07:49.160 --> 00:07:51.360 did you see the unmanned flights? Video that Endeavor has 157 00:07:51.399 --> 00:07:53.920 been putting out and they're just like, oh, look we 158 00:07:54.079 --> 00:07:57.319 do unmanned flights, specialized in unmanned flights, you know, like 159 00:07:57.399 --> 00:07:59.560 what does that mean? He realized it's just oh, look, 160 00:07:59.879 --> 00:08:03.600 the pilots are all women and the flight, which is 161 00:08:03.639 --> 00:08:05.600 not necessarily a problem, but it's like the only thing 162 00:08:05.639 --> 00:08:06.360 they focused on. 163 00:08:06.600 --> 00:08:08.199 They need to change the name of that because it's 164 00:08:08.199 --> 00:08:13.160 super confusing flights and like does AI flying the plane? 165 00:08:13.199 --> 00:08:14.040 Like what are you talking about? 166 00:08:14.399 --> 00:08:17.839 No, no, there's not any filthy masculine uh eh yeah 167 00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:20.680 up in there. So that's what they're talking about. It's 168 00:08:20.720 --> 00:08:23.639 all girl power. This this flight powered by girl power, 169 00:08:23.639 --> 00:08:28.480 which apparently is very green. So no, no, no, no. 170 00:08:28.639 --> 00:08:30.680 So even if you remove all the gender stuff, like 171 00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:33.960 if what what what they're explaining with the pilots there 172 00:08:34.080 --> 00:08:37.480 sound super like not that not necessarily the situation as 173 00:08:37.519 --> 00:08:40.399 a passenger you would want having a land and some 174 00:08:40.519 --> 00:08:47.480 pretty sketchy conditions which tend to permeate Canadian airports during 175 00:08:47.519 --> 00:08:50.679 the middle of winter. I told you one of the 176 00:08:51.000 --> 00:08:52.159 one of the scary I don't want to say it 177 00:08:52.159 --> 00:08:54.080 was scariest, but one of the craziest. And it doesn't 178 00:08:54.120 --> 00:08:56.279 mean we're necessarily in danger, but it's one of those 179 00:08:56.320 --> 00:08:59.600 why would you tell the passengers. I remember landing in 180 00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:03.159 Rapid City, South Dakota one time in the winter. I 181 00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:06.240 was having to try to get home, flying into Wyoming. 182 00:09:06.320 --> 00:09:08.440 It's not easy. Sometimes you don't quite make it. You 183 00:09:08.600 --> 00:09:13.360 end up in Billings, Montana, or Rapid City, South Dakota, 184 00:09:13.440 --> 00:09:15.480 or maybe Casper if you're lucky, and you still got 185 00:09:15.559 --> 00:09:18.039 hours ahead of you to get home. And so I'm 186 00:09:18.080 --> 00:09:19.840 flying in. I can't remember why I was having to 187 00:09:19.919 --> 00:09:22.279 go back, but I'm having to go back. It's the 188 00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:26.919 middle of winter, and the conditions in Rapid City are awful, 189 00:09:27.399 --> 00:09:30.399 like far worse really than even what is going on 190 00:09:30.559 --> 00:09:34.240 on the ground in parts of North Carolina today. Difference 191 00:09:34.399 --> 00:09:37.519 is that's just what you do. And so we're on descent, 192 00:09:37.720 --> 00:09:39.759 and it's one of those descents where we're never going 193 00:09:39.799 --> 00:09:42.159 to see ground before we hit it because it's in 194 00:09:42.240 --> 00:09:45.519 the middle of a friggin snowstorm. And so we're flying 195 00:09:45.639 --> 00:09:47.840 through the planes getting the craft kicked out of it 196 00:09:47.840 --> 00:09:50.240 because it's in and out of these storm clouds. And 197 00:09:52.360 --> 00:09:55.440 by now I'm I've flown enough where I'm just like, 198 00:09:56.039 --> 00:09:58.240 I'm just like all right, whatever, even though we land 199 00:09:58.360 --> 00:09:59.960 and I got to drive three and a half hour 200 00:10:00.399 --> 00:10:02.240 or we crash and I don't have to worry about it. 201 00:10:03.399 --> 00:10:06.639 And then we do it and it's a pretty hard landing, 202 00:10:07.320 --> 00:10:10.840 not gonna lie, but we get it, playing gets slowed down. 203 00:10:10.879 --> 00:10:12.840 We're there, and then on the PA they're like, hey, 204 00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:15.360 this is Captain so and so, and I just want 205 00:10:15.399 --> 00:10:18.000 to let you know the first officer so and so 206 00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:21.240 just got out of the Air Force or whatever. That 207 00:10:21.399 --> 00:10:24.480 was his first landing, uh here for the company. And 208 00:10:24.600 --> 00:10:31.960 I'm like what And then yeah, no, oh, no, no, no, 209 00:10:32.039 --> 00:10:33.799 I screwed the story because they told us in the 210 00:10:33.879 --> 00:10:36.240 air still that it was gonna be their first thing. 211 00:10:36.279 --> 00:10:37.720 But don't worry. They got down the military and then 212 00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:39.480 we did it, and then they give us the whole bio, 213 00:10:39.720 --> 00:10:44.399 and I'm just like, glad it worked out. You know, sure, 214 00:10:44.399 --> 00:10:48.960 everyone's a fine pilot there. But again, you're in the 215 00:10:49.000 --> 00:10:51.559 middle of this narrative. You're making all these videos that 216 00:10:51.720 --> 00:10:54.720 keep going, oh, we do unmanned flights. There's no any 217 00:10:54.799 --> 00:10:57.159 toxic masculinity in there. I'm like, I don't know, I 218 00:10:57.279 --> 00:10:59.519 just want to pilot that baby. Doesn't hit the runway 219 00:10:59.639 --> 00:11:05.559 on the land at so much speed it looks like 220 00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:12.200 it snaps the landing gear. Do we have that? I 221 00:11:12.240 --> 00:11:16.159 don't know, man, but we'll we'll, we'll explore it as 222 00:11:16.559 --> 00:11:20.960 we uh slide through all the stories today. All right, 223 00:11:21.039 --> 00:11:23.399 coming up, we got uh, let's see, Oh we got 224 00:11:23.440 --> 00:11:25.480 to Oh we got more protests. They're doing a protest 225 00:11:25.559 --> 00:11:29.919 today and in this weather. Yeah, I guess they saved 226 00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:33.000 They they figured out how to save the Kennedy Center yesterday, 227 00:11:33.080 --> 00:11:34.879 which I don't think they were closing. I think Trump 228 00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:36.679 just got rid of the guy who was like, hey, 229 00:11:37.639 --> 00:11:40.200 I get paid five million dollars a year to put 230 00:11:40.240 --> 00:11:45.480 on uh drag shows of for teens instead of you 231 00:11:45.559 --> 00:11:49.080 know this, we have this huge, world renowned concert venue 232 00:11:49.120 --> 00:11:52.159 and I'm using it for all my social justice stuff. 233 00:11:52.200 --> 00:11:54.679 So they didn't shut it down. Trump's just like, you 234 00:11:54.759 --> 00:11:57.759 know what, I'm gonna run this thing because what's going 235 00:11:57.799 --> 00:12:01.279 on now ain't working. But that brought the protesters out, 236 00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:03.480 and I guess they figured out a way. So and 237 00:12:04.000 --> 00:12:07.159 we'll talk planes with CNN, because of course we will. 238 00:12:07.679 --> 00:12:09.879 And I had not had a chance to see the 239 00:12:09.919 --> 00:12:14.759 new Gen Ruben podcast yet. Ross we could be in trouble, man, 240 00:12:15.960 --> 00:12:17.919 we do I don't know if you know this. This 241 00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:21.200 the podcast for the show for those of you who 242 00:12:21.279 --> 00:12:23.759 are too cowardly to get up and join us at 243 00:12:23.799 --> 00:12:29.000 the proper time. I'm kidding some of you. Our podcast 244 00:12:29.279 --> 00:12:32.360 kills it. We do really, really, really well, and we 245 00:12:32.480 --> 00:12:34.720 got a lot really high streaming, usually the best in 246 00:12:34.840 --> 00:12:41.799 the company far and away, and I I'm really nervous 247 00:12:41.919 --> 00:12:44.720 that some of our digital numbers could suffer with this 248 00:12:44.919 --> 00:12:49.279 new Gen Rubin podcast. Yeah, you know, or and other 249 00:12:49.600 --> 00:12:50.120 other folks. 250 00:12:50.279 --> 00:12:52.679 It's very threatening because they do the podcast, you know, 251 00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:56.600 it's like a video. Yeah, and they do the Bormer 252 00:12:57.639 --> 00:12:59.120 upward camera angle thing. 253 00:12:59.240 --> 00:13:01.360 Well they're doing put the phone on the table and 254 00:13:01.440 --> 00:13:03.639 then you're looking down at it. Yeah, like it's a 255 00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:04.559 zoom media. 256 00:13:04.320 --> 00:13:07.080 And Jen Rubin's face through like a fish bowl. 257 00:13:07.879 --> 00:13:10.519 Yeah, but it's also but there's so there's a visual. 258 00:13:10.639 --> 00:13:15.799 But don't don't sleep on the sound. The sound pleasing 259 00:13:15.960 --> 00:13:18.919 to the ears, I think would be the way to 260 00:13:19.480 --> 00:13:21.559 say that. It doesn't even matter what they're talking about. 261 00:13:21.600 --> 00:13:25.440 It's just the the choral flow of the of the 262 00:13:25.559 --> 00:13:29.799 harmony of voices of other cast off old school reporters 263 00:13:29.840 --> 00:13:31.799 who will never see the light, who still think that 264 00:13:31.879 --> 00:13:33.519 they're doing the right thing. So they go out and 265 00:13:33.519 --> 00:13:35.639 they start the contrarian and then do this pot like 266 00:13:36.519 --> 00:13:42.399 those that those types of renowned reporters whose grift is up, 267 00:13:42.559 --> 00:13:44.679 but they're just they they don't see. And then and 268 00:13:44.759 --> 00:13:47.279 then you turn it on and you're just it's like 269 00:13:47.399 --> 00:13:50.600 the song of the Sirens, which caused many a ship 270 00:13:50.720 --> 00:13:53.759 to smash itself against the rocks, because you just can't 271 00:13:53.840 --> 00:13:54.480 unlisten the. 272 00:13:54.559 --> 00:13:58.320 News highlights and the low lights through. 273 00:14:01.080 --> 00:14:05.360 Joke highlights will have the dad joke of the day. 274 00:14:05.840 --> 00:14:09.960 That's guaranteed.

So just 306 00:16:12.519 --> 00:16:15.159 so you know today what everyone's gonna be screaming bloody 307 00:16:15.240 --> 00:16:18.519 murder over is I guess they're going to fire seven 308 00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:22.960 thousand i rs. There's going to be more probationary agents, 309 00:16:25.600 --> 00:16:28.879 which again was part of some of the ramp up 310 00:16:28.960 --> 00:16:32.799 and hiring and and the Biden administration, even though they 311 00:16:32.840 --> 00:16:35.440 were being challenged in court over this stuff, decided to 312 00:16:35.519 --> 00:16:39.000 go forward and uh and and start getting that program 313 00:16:39.120 --> 00:16:42.120 cooking right. So it's they weren't all going to be 314 00:16:42.159 --> 00:16:46.720 people that were necessarily auditing you, but still seven thousand people. 315 00:16:46.799 --> 00:16:48.879 This was part of that plan to get eighty thousand 316 00:16:48.960 --> 00:16:52.000 more in there across certain a certain spectrum of it. 317 00:16:53.360 --> 00:16:55.559 So yeah, they're gonna They're just gonna go ahead and 318 00:16:55.639 --> 00:16:59.799 fire them today and I'm sure everyone will be losing 319 00:16:59.840 --> 00:17:03.039 their One of the things that's not getting enough pub 320 00:17:03.240 --> 00:17:08.039 is what Zelden is discovering over at EPA slush fund 321 00:17:08.200 --> 00:17:13.400 after slush fund. Basically they had one that was twenty billion. 322 00:17:14.680 --> 00:17:16.960 It basically was sitting there. It had been taken and 323 00:17:17.039 --> 00:17:19.400 put into its own bank accounts. They're finding a lot 324 00:17:19.440 --> 00:17:22.359 of these credit cards that are attached to stuff and 325 00:17:22.839 --> 00:17:25.400 then the monies would just be used by mid level, 326 00:17:25.599 --> 00:17:31.559 upper level, sometimes low level bureaucrats for pet projects. This 327 00:17:31.759 --> 00:17:33.960 is the type of stuff that you're seeing. Well, they'll 328 00:17:34.000 --> 00:17:36.759 claim it doesn't fraud. They'll claim that they have the 329 00:17:36.839 --> 00:17:40.200 discretion to do this. Yesterday they announced that they found 330 00:17:40.240 --> 00:17:43.279 a two billion dollars slush fund and most of the 331 00:17:43.359 --> 00:17:47.880 monies it hadn't been formally distributed, but were being slowly 332 00:17:47.960 --> 00:17:53.680 distributed to Stacy Abram's climate change group. But yet the 333 00:17:53.759 --> 00:17:56.119 money seems to be like it was used for like 334 00:17:56.319 --> 00:18:00.359 Trump sucks rallies and stuff. And I'm sorry, I don't 335 00:18:00.359 --> 00:18:03.720 know how any of this is not illegal just because 336 00:18:03.759 --> 00:18:05.640 you were in a position of power to make these 337 00:18:05.720 --> 00:18:09.359 calls when you then made the call in this case 338 00:18:09.759 --> 00:18:15.480 a stuff that was being squirreled away. A lot of 339 00:18:15.519 --> 00:18:17.880 this stuff looks like it was enacted and squirrelled away 340 00:18:18.319 --> 00:18:22.200 after the election, prior to the inauguration. Basically, we're getting 341 00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:24.359 the moneys in there. That's why they're clawing back some 342 00:18:24.480 --> 00:18:27.559 of these payments because they rushed and they made these 343 00:18:27.640 --> 00:18:31.000 payments they knew inherently probably weren't legal. But if they 344 00:18:31.039 --> 00:18:32.519 figured it ouf, hey, if we got the money out 345 00:18:32.599 --> 00:18:37.680 the door, there's nothing they could do. And my question 346 00:18:37.920 --> 00:18:41.480 is when will somebody go to jail for this? This 347 00:18:41.680 --> 00:18:44.920 isn't locking up your political opponents. This is locking up thieves. 348 00:18:46.920 --> 00:18:48.799 This was never even when it was. I don't care 349 00:18:48.839 --> 00:18:51.640 how much discretion you think you have. At some point 350 00:18:51.799 --> 00:18:54.920 you're clearly only using the money for your own gain 351 00:18:55.119 --> 00:18:58.880 benefit or pet projects. That's not what was intended.
