Yesterday, 5 00:00:13.039 --> 00:00:15.960 it's all over Joel and Natick. Joel, next do Knights? 6 00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:19.039 I go ahead, yes, Dan, So it's a good thing. 7 00:00:19.079 --> 00:00:21.079 We don't have to wait for Arizona that results to 8 00:00:21.160 --> 00:00:22.440 get that elected. 9 00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:26.399 Yeah, they'll they'll go come in sometime in January. 10 00:00:25.960 --> 00:00:28.519 I think you yeah, yeah, So you know what they 11 00:00:28.519 --> 00:00:31.519 should do, Dan, we should we should have an amendment 12 00:00:31.600 --> 00:00:35.119 to the constitution, so election so every state has the 13 00:00:35.159 --> 00:00:37.600 same rules to follow. Instead he's still having no own. 14 00:00:39.240 --> 00:00:42.600 Well, the constitution specifically, you'll have to amend the constitution 15 00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:47.039 because the Constitution specifically says that elections shall be run 16 00:00:47.399 --> 00:00:49.799 by the rules that are established in each state. So 17 00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:53.159 you've got to change the constitution. It's not easy. 18 00:00:53.200 --> 00:00:55.520 I'm not going to do that. We're not going to 19 00:00:55.560 --> 00:00:55.799 do that. 20 00:00:55.880 --> 00:00:57.960 But yeah, it's a tough one, that's for sure. 21 00:00:59.799 --> 00:01:01.960 But I'm glad at some point that he can clean 22 00:01:02.079 --> 00:01:02.679 up the swamp. 23 00:01:04.719 --> 00:01:07.120 Well, he had four years to do it before. 24 00:01:08.079 --> 00:01:10.959 But he was an experience then, he is an experienced 25 00:01:10.959 --> 00:01:12.000 the first four years, but. 26 00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:17.120 Now had no excuse this time on. I'm not saying 27 00:01:17.159 --> 00:01:20.239 I'm just saying that he was there once before. He 28 00:01:20.359 --> 00:01:23.959 appointed people. Some were competent, some were loyal. Very few 29 00:01:24.040 --> 00:01:26.560 were both competent and loyal. You have to be very 30 00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:29.120 he has to be very careful who he brings in 31 00:01:29.159 --> 00:01:32.200 to his administration. He has to bring in competent were 32 00:01:32.239 --> 00:01:32.879 also loyal. 33 00:01:34.040 --> 00:01:37.959 Yes, definitely, that's and that's. 34 00:01:37.840 --> 00:01:41.040 Tough for mean you when you're you're the federal government 35 00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:44.480 is a huge behemoth, and you have to make sure 36 00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:47.879 that you're bringing in people who are going to be 37 00:01:47.920 --> 00:01:50.680 able to do the job and who were not Yes people, 38 00:01:51.439 --> 00:01:54.480 but you have to be able to accept strong people 39 00:01:54.560 --> 00:01:57.239 like Bill Barr I think was a strong attorney general. 40 00:01:57.280 --> 00:02:01.079 And when he refused to take advice, what did he do? 41 00:02:01.159 --> 00:02:03.959 He got rid of him. I just think that's It's 42 00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:05.760 like if you have a doctor and the doctor tells 43 00:02:05.799 --> 00:02:07.640 you you're sick and you need to do this, this 44 00:02:07.760 --> 00:02:10.199 or this, and you say, I'm not doing it, doc, 45 00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:14.400 Well go find a different doctor. But that's that's what 46 00:02:14.479 --> 00:02:16.159 you got to do. You know, if you have a lawyer, 47 00:02:16.240 --> 00:02:18.719 if you get arrested for something and the lawyer says 48 00:02:18.759 --> 00:02:21.479 to you, look, they got your cold here. Maybe I 49 00:02:21.520 --> 00:02:23.960 want to, you know, talk with them about maybe we 50 00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:27.360 can plead, you know, and get you a deal. And 51 00:02:27.400 --> 00:02:29.000 you say, I don't know, I want to go to trial. 52 00:02:29.080 --> 00:02:30.840 You go to trial and you get fifty years, and 53 00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:32.000 you say, well, I should. 54 00:02:31.719 --> 00:02:35.520 Have listened to a lawyer, you know. Yeh you know. 55 00:02:35.919 --> 00:02:38.840 Trump is Trump is a very strong I kind of 56 00:02:38.840 --> 00:02:42.159 imagine anybody more strong minded. He sort of reminds me 57 00:02:42.199 --> 00:02:46.960 of George Steinbrenner, another New Yorker, you know, rather do 58 00:02:47.039 --> 00:02:50.439 it their own way and we'll see, you know. I hope, 59 00:02:50.520 --> 00:02:52.919 I hope he's successful. I think that we all should 60 00:02:53.000 --> 00:02:58.840 hope that that he runs a competent administration whoever gets elected. 61 00:03:00.479 --> 00:03:04.080 Because face can't get much worse than they are now, well. 62 00:03:03.800 --> 00:03:07.919 Things will get a whole lot worse. Trust me, No, 63 00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:12.560 I mean you know this this. We just saw the 64 00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:15.479 stock market jump up fifteen hundred points today.

They were 170 00:08:34.600 --> 00:08:36.519 giving them away. All you had to do was go 171 00:08:36.559 --> 00:08:38.600 online and they would send you free test kits. 172 00:08:38.799 --> 00:08:43.320 You don't remember that, right, I remember, But you remember dance. 173 00:08:43.440 --> 00:08:46.240 You're always talking about principal principle. 174 00:08:46.639 --> 00:08:48.799 But the point I'm trying to make to you, if 175 00:08:48.840 --> 00:08:51.840 you just allow me to finish my thought, is that 176 00:08:52.240 --> 00:08:56.240 let's assume, you know, he thought that he could engender 177 00:08:56.639 --> 00:09:00.679 some goodwill with a guy who has a failing of 178 00:09:00.799 --> 00:09:07.159 intercontinental nuclear warhead ballistic missiles.

They gave them 189 00:09:47.480 --> 00:09:50.120 their own money back, and they're. 190 00:09:49.960 --> 00:09:52.399 Still trying to get nuclear weapons. They're still trying to 191 00:09:52.399 --> 00:09:54.840 get nuclear weapons. And the the money that we gave 192 00:09:54.879 --> 00:09:58.879 them back was somewhere around six billion dollars crates of 193 00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:01.519 American cash. The youter I got to run here. Your 194 00:10:01.600 --> 00:10:04.919 line's not great tonight, but but do me a favorite. 195 00:10:04.919 --> 00:10:07.480 Don't intel other guys from Baltimore you might disagree with. 196 00:10:07.559 --> 00:10:10.320 Come on, I don't like that. You know that. Okay, 197 00:10:10.320 --> 00:10:14.440 thanks appreciate it. Let's have let's have civil conversation here. 198 00:10:14.440 --> 00:10:16.720 If we ken, we are going to go next to 199 00:10:17.240 --> 00:10:19.279 Michael and Attilborough. Michael, you're next door nights. 200 00:10:19.320 --> 00:10:21.559 I go right ahead, Dan Elaiyah. 201 00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:23.279 I do regret, Michael. 202 00:10:23.679 --> 00:10:26.000 I think this thing could have been more perfect. I 203 00:10:26.039 --> 00:10:29.559 thought it was great. I thought that Trump is a 204 00:10:29.559 --> 00:10:30.440 little subdued. 205 00:10:30.519 --> 00:10:30.840 Now. 206 00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:35.080 I wanted to put out a couple of things I 207 00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:37.080 was on the Yahoo page. I thought it was a 208 00:10:37.120 --> 00:10:40.919 more civil page. Yahoknews, every single lot of them when 209 00:10:40.919 --> 00:10:43.639 you go down the left and scroll down with something 210 00:10:43.639 --> 00:10:47.279 against Trump, you know. But anyway, anyway, this is earlier 211 00:10:47.320 --> 00:10:52.000 in the day, earlier yesterday. But I don't think he should. 212 00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:54.679 I think the bucks starts here. At some point. He's 213 00:10:54.720 --> 00:11:00.559 got to not pardon, you know, not the thing we 214 00:11:00.639 --> 00:11:04.639 are automatically part pardoning people because it just it breaks 215 00:11:04.679 --> 00:11:08.519 down our criminal system. That The other thing is they 216 00:11:08.600 --> 00:11:11.840 must have let Banfield out on purpose, so it would 217 00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:16.799 be another thing to make people go, oh now I'm 218 00:11:17.000 --> 00:11:17.879 letting this guy out. 219 00:11:20.360 --> 00:11:23.639 As I understand that Bannon was sentenced for his criminal 220 00:11:23.679 --> 00:11:26.759 contempt of Congress, he served his time, and it just 221 00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:30.159 so happened that his time came up a week before 222 00:11:30.200 --> 00:11:30.639 the election. 223 00:11:31.679 --> 00:11:32.519 Oh okay, Okay. 224 00:11:32.559 --> 00:11:34.519 The other thing I wanted to point out is when 225 00:11:35.039 --> 00:11:40.600 when Biden gave over the torch about a week after that, 226 00:11:40.679 --> 00:11:43.519 it was a news thing, and I kind of I 227 00:11:43.559 --> 00:11:46.519 think it kind of got slipped through that Biden. 228 00:11:46.240 --> 00:11:48.480 Said if Trump won, he was going to go to 229 00:11:48.519 --> 00:11:51.879 the inauguration. So I think this was a thing where 230 00:11:53.279 --> 00:11:55.480 Biden didn't want to do this. He did not want 231 00:11:55.519 --> 00:11:59.559 to do this, and it's like, you know, you get 232 00:11:59.600 --> 00:11:59.919 an older. 233 00:12:00.679 --> 00:12:03.679 I think Biden is on record I think you're correct. 234 00:12:03.799 --> 00:12:08.120 Biden is on record is saying he will attend the inauguration, 235 00:12:08.720 --> 00:12:13.440 and that is what other presidents have done. Uh and 236 00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:16.440 uh And as a matter of fact, President Obama welcomed 237 00:12:16.440 --> 00:12:19.200 Trump to the White House, and I think, look, there 238 00:12:19.240 --> 00:12:21.639 was some really nasty talk going back here, you know, 239 00:12:21.799 --> 00:12:26.200 garbage and deplorables and uh, you know, and and fascist 240 00:12:26.279 --> 00:12:29.039 and Hitler, and these guys got to kind of chill 241 00:12:29.080 --> 00:12:32.279 it out here a little bit, okay, I mean both sides, 242 00:12:32.480 --> 00:12:36.240 both sides. And if if by by Biden inviting Trump 243 00:12:36.279 --> 00:12:38.080 to the White House and they get to shake hands 244 00:12:38.080 --> 00:12:41.360 and sit down for five minutes and cool the temperature 245 00:12:41.360 --> 00:12:44.879 a little bit, there's no harm done there. And I say, Biden, 246 00:12:45.159 --> 00:12:47.679 you know, Biden, Biden could be pretty bitter right now. 247 00:12:47.720 --> 00:12:50.399 He's probably is more bitter at Nancy Pelosi and Chuck 248 00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:52.600 Schumer than he is at Donald Trump. 249 00:12:53.279 --> 00:12:55.639 Oh yeah, absolutely, absolutely. 250 00:12:55.720 --> 00:12:55.919 Yeah. 251 00:12:55.919 --> 00:13:01.600 You want to speaker puote again? What? Yeah, Michael, I 252 00:13:01.639 --> 00:13:04.559 gotta I gotta run here, okay, because speakerphone is not 253 00:13:04.639 --> 00:13:06.919 a good thing for us. I will talk to you to. 254 00:13:09.120 --> 00:13:09.480 Thank you. 255 00:13:09.519 --> 00:13:11.960 No problem, No problem, will be okay next time. Okay, 256 00:13:11.960 --> 00:13:15.399 thank you much. Let's keep rolling. You're gonna go to Doug, 257 00:13:15.399 --> 00:13:20.480 who's in Raleigh, Massachusetts, not Raleigh, North Carolina, Rowley, Massachusetts. Doug, 258 00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:22.279 welcome next on night Side. 259 00:13:23.159 --> 00:13:26.240 I am correcting you. Oh great one and voice. 260 00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:28.919 You you go right ahead. I had to do a 261 00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:30.840 perfect talk shows. Go ahead. 262 00:13:31.440 --> 00:13:33.080 I'm in Raleigh, North Carolina. 263 00:13:33.159 --> 00:13:36.240 Brother, you are okay, Well, I'll tell you what. We 264 00:13:36.320 --> 00:13:39.919 have a community here called Rowley, which is spelled r 265 00:13:40.039 --> 00:13:43.200 O W l e Y Raleigh, North Carolina. 266 00:13:43.600 --> 00:13:43.840 Rob. 267 00:13:43.879 --> 00:13:46.799 Put it up man, Raleigh, North Carolina. Rob is spelled 268 00:13:47.240 --> 00:13:51.600 r A l e I g H Comma n C. 269 00:13:52.440 --> 00:13:55.840 So Doug, welcome in Raleigh, North Carolina. 270 00:13:56.720 --> 00:13:59.759 Now, look, you had some flood pressure moments before, so 271 00:14:00.279 --> 00:14:04.000 take ninety seconds off. Let me take it from here. 272 00:14:04.039 --> 00:14:06.840 I want to talk to you quickly about your comments 273 00:14:06.879 --> 00:14:11.600 on network television news that you made about forty five 274 00:14:11.600 --> 00:14:15.279 minutes ago. I agree with you wholehearted me. I just 275 00:14:15.320 --> 00:14:18.519 wish once I could call and disagree with the Voice 276 00:14:18.519 --> 00:14:22.799 of Reason. But when they aren't doing double coverage, as 277 00:14:22.840 --> 00:14:25.200 you know, you and I both came from the same 278 00:14:25.279 --> 00:14:29.519 background of TV and radio, when these networks are doing 279 00:14:29.639 --> 00:14:34.320 campaign double coverage. It seems to me if I wasn't 280 00:14:34.360 --> 00:14:39.720 watching all the time, they go Harris reporter first. Every 281 00:14:39.799 --> 00:14:45.879 time I'd glorifies, he glorifies the report with lovely, stunning 282 00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:51.879 soundtimes camera, and then I go to the reporter covering Trump, 283 00:14:52.240 --> 00:14:55.799 and all of a sudden, a lot of the negative 284 00:14:56.080 --> 00:15:00.399 or bad stuff gets cut into those pieces. Well it's 285 00:15:00.440 --> 00:15:06.279 selective editing, okay, but the average viewer is not going 286 00:15:06.320 --> 00:15:11.679 to recognize or know what we know. But you know, 287 00:15:11.759 --> 00:15:14.039 I keep going back to the eighties and nineties when 288 00:15:14.039 --> 00:15:16.200 I was on in New York and then when I 289 00:15:16.320 --> 00:15:20.360 was a news director of two ABC affiliated stations. We 290 00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:23.960 never had any of this. I mean, oh, I was 291 00:15:24.000 --> 00:15:28.320 asleep at the switch. But I don't recall. I studied 292 00:15:28.399 --> 00:15:34.679 under some great reporters and they said every guilty, they'll 293 00:15:34.759 --> 00:15:39.360 proven innocent, and that's basically how we went about our business. 294 00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:45.799 But Dan, this strategies, all of their rehearsals didn't work 295 00:15:45.879 --> 00:15:47.519 because look what happened last night. 296 00:15:48.639 --> 00:15:51.320 I got to tell you this. I think ABC News 297 00:15:51.440 --> 00:15:57.279 between the debate that David Muir conducted along with his 298 00:15:57.440 --> 00:16:00.639 associate I forget her name for a moment, Uh, they 299 00:16:00.679 --> 00:16:06.480 were way, way over the top. I thought they it was. 300 00:16:06.600 --> 00:16:10.120 It was as biased as you could find. And there's 301 00:16:10.159 --> 00:16:13.759 a mindset there. There's just a mindset with ABC News. 302 00:16:13.799 --> 00:16:17.720 I actually got tired of watching CBS at six thirty 303 00:16:17.759 --> 00:16:22.000 at nine and decided to watch ABC. I'm now switching 304 00:16:22.039 --> 00:16:25.000 over to Lester Hold on NBC. I'm trying to find 305 00:16:25.240 --> 00:16:29.519 a newscast that has some objectivity. That's what newscasts are 306 00:16:29.519 --> 00:16:32.120 supposed to have. I don't have to be objective as 307 00:16:32.159 --> 00:16:34.600 a commentator, but I try like hell to give as 308 00:16:34.639 --> 00:16:37.360 many points of view on this program as possible. I 309 00:16:37.399 --> 00:16:39.919 even allow people like my friend Theodore to call in 310 00:16:40.000 --> 00:16:41.320 for Baltimore all the time. 311 00:16:42.480 --> 00:16:45.279 Yeah, and I'm gonna get Rob for that. That that 312 00:16:45.399 --> 00:16:48.840 cut down on my time. That guy, no, no, no, no, 313 00:16:49.600 --> 00:16:50.159 he had a bed. 314 00:16:50.399 --> 00:16:52.919 But now, at least next time you tell him, tell 315 00:16:53.000 --> 00:16:56.240 him it was Raleigh, North Carolina. And we do. By 316 00:16:56.279 --> 00:16:58.879 the way, I have a town i'm here called called 317 00:16:59.039 --> 00:17:02.519 Rowley w R O W L E Y. 318 00:17:04.039 --> 00:17:04.240 Yeah. 319 00:17:04.240 --> 00:17:05.079 Where is that near? 320 00:17:05.920 --> 00:17:09.480 It's north of Boston. It's up up sort of as 321 00:17:09.559 --> 00:17:11.960 halfway from Boston up to New Hampshire. 322 00:17:12.119 --> 00:17:15.720 Right off, I should know that my first my first 323 00:17:15.759 --> 00:17:17.880 wife was from Lawrence. I should be familiar with that. 324 00:17:18.079 --> 00:17:20.480 All right, Pretty, that's another story for another night. 325 00:17:21.000 --> 00:17:23.480 You got it, Doug. Always great deal your voice my friend. 326 00:17:23.519 --> 00:17:24.200 Thanks so much. 327 00:17:24.960 --> 00:17:27.039 Thanks Dan, take care, bye, talk. 328 00:17:26.920 --> 00:17:31.480 Soon, bye bye. I get great listeners all over the country. 329 00:17:31.880 --> 00:17:33.920 Jack is down in the Cape, Jack on Cape Caught, 330 00:17:34.000 --> 00:17:36.279 Hey Jack, next on Nightside, go right ahead. 331 00:17:36.960 --> 00:17:41.039 Hey Dan. So I mentioned before, I mean this whole 332 00:17:41.359 --> 00:17:46.319 exercise is the highest level of bread and circus, you know, 333 00:17:46.680 --> 00:17:50.559 because of the effects that it has on our on 334 00:17:50.599 --> 00:17:55.440 our living and life systems that we experience on Earth. 335 00:17:55.559 --> 00:17:58.440 It's one thing to watch bredon circus, whether it's a 336 00:17:58.640 --> 00:18:05.319 football team's playing it out. But I'm really concerned. 337 00:18:06.799 --> 00:18:09.559 The consulty, which is Jack. Let me ask you. I 338 00:18:09.599 --> 00:18:12.079 know what you mean when you say bread and circus. Okay, 339 00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:15.200 I get that, But give me how you apply bread 340 00:18:15.240 --> 00:18:20.359 and circus to a pretty hard fought fought presidential campaign. 341 00:18:22.880 --> 00:18:26.119 It's all it's all media. It's it's all media driven. 342 00:18:27.279 --> 00:18:32.200 It's not addressing. It's not it's not addressing, Okay. I'm 343 00:18:32.240 --> 00:18:36.279 more interested in the in the level, the operational level, 344 00:18:36.400 --> 00:18:40.039 not the presentational level, the operational level of the problems 345 00:18:40.079 --> 00:18:47.079 that we're we're confronted with here in society, in local, regional, national, 346 00:18:47.160 --> 00:18:48.440 and global. 347 00:18:48.680 --> 00:18:51.599 An example, give me an example. You're you're a smart guy, 348 00:18:51.680 --> 00:18:54.519 I could tell because you've thought this through. Give me 349 00:18:54.559 --> 00:18:59.960 an example of operational level. Are you talking about issues? 350 00:19:00.079 --> 00:19:02.799 Tell me just to give me a better clarification of 351 00:19:02.839 --> 00:19:04.599 what you mean by that. That's all I'm asking. 352 00:19:05.599 --> 00:19:15.799 Could this addresses the administrative forces that cause change to happen, 353 00:19:17.240 --> 00:19:21.319 and we could call we could say change from one 354 00:19:21.559 --> 00:19:24.440 perspective is good and another one would say it's bad. 355 00:19:25.200 --> 00:19:27.839 But what this really represents. 356 00:19:27.359 --> 00:19:28.559 Is the. 357 00:19:30.839 --> 00:19:33.720 In other words, we have all these we have all 358 00:19:33.720 --> 00:19:38.960 this this human level of interaction that is so ineffective. 359 00:19:40.480 --> 00:19:42.839 It's it's what I'm really getting that. 360 00:19:42.960 --> 00:19:44.799 Then you can ask you a question, Jack, I want 361 00:19:44.799 --> 00:19:48.400 to ask you a serious question. Okay, serious question. Were 362 00:19:48.400 --> 00:19:50.680 you a sociology major in college? 363 00:19:52.039 --> 00:19:55.640 Never went to college? Here's what I wanted to a 364 00:19:55.680 --> 00:19:56.519 couple of days. 365 00:19:56.759 --> 00:19:58.799 No, here's what I want you to do. What I'm 366 00:19:58.799 --> 00:20:02.160 trying to understand is you invoke the phrase bread and circus, 367 00:20:02.519 --> 00:20:07.279 which brings us back to the Fall of Rome, because 368 00:20:08.119 --> 00:20:14.000 the emperors of Rome gave people gladiators in lions at 369 00:20:14.000 --> 00:20:17.240 the coliseum, and that was called bread and circus. You 370 00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:22.720 kept the people distracted from problems by giving them entertainment. 371 00:20:23.039 --> 00:20:25.960 Some people will say to you, look, when people sit 372 00:20:26.000 --> 00:20:28.400 home on a Sunday and they're watching football games or 373 00:20:28.440 --> 00:20:31.799 they're watching the World Series, it doesn't really affect them. 374 00:20:31.799 --> 00:20:34.039 And that's a modern day bread and circus. I don't 375 00:20:34.079 --> 00:20:38.119 agree with that. I think that that people do deserve 376 00:20:38.160 --> 00:20:41.200 a break and all of that. But when you say 377 00:20:41.519 --> 00:20:45.279 operational and you use bread and circus, give me an 378 00:20:45.319 --> 00:20:47.799 example of what you mean. Give me a tangible example 379 00:20:47.880 --> 00:20:53.359 so I can have a sense of what you're talking about. 380 00:20:54.599 --> 00:20:58.319 Well, each if we were to apply this to this 381 00:20:59.319 --> 00:21:03.319 each candidate, that just uh went up for our thought 382 00:21:03.359 --> 00:21:06.079 process so that we could we could choose one or 383 00:21:06.079 --> 00:21:12.799 one or the other. Underneath what that really represents is 384 00:21:13.279 --> 00:21:19.000 all of the policy h attributions that will go towards 385 00:21:20.559 --> 00:21:24.960 administering a resolution. We have to get to resolutions. I mean, 386 00:21:25.279 --> 00:21:29.359 allowing these problems to persist is just distracting us from 387 00:21:29.519 --> 00:21:31.519 what we really need to do to take care of. 388 00:21:31.480 --> 00:21:37.799 The business that we that we need to get resolved. 389 00:21:37.839 --> 00:21:44.240 I mean, there's a lot of problems. 390 00:21:41.920 --> 00:21:47.640 Simply simply take the Ukrainian situation, I mean, we have 391 00:21:47.759 --> 00:21:55.279 to look at the entirety of the the situation as 392 00:21:55.279 --> 00:21:58.559 it occurred through time, not as it occurs today. But 393 00:21:58.640 --> 00:22:01.000 we have to observe it as a could through time. 394 00:22:01.359 --> 00:22:02.720 And where you. 395 00:22:02.839 --> 00:22:06.200 Resolve Jack, I'm just trying to work with me. I'm 396 00:22:06.240 --> 00:22:10.400 trying to help you. How would you propose that we 397 00:22:10.960 --> 00:22:15.440 the US resolve the Ukrainian situation, by which I assume 398 00:22:15.480 --> 00:22:19.720 you're meaning Russia's invasion of the Genesqua region and other 399 00:22:19.759 --> 00:22:20.720 parts of Ukraine. 400 00:22:21.519 --> 00:22:23.759 Oh, well, first we let's look at the operator, I mean, 401 00:22:24.680 --> 00:22:27.839
