Stacy Matthews. She is a writer over at RedState dot com,

writing under the handle's sister told you, one of the

12
00:00:38,679 --> 00:00:42,920
og bloggers and a local Stacy, how are you.

13
00:00:43,679 --> 00:00:45,679
Speaker 2: Hey, Pete. Good to be on and I want to

14
00:00:45,679 --> 00:00:48,799
say congratulations on the big scoop you posted earlier today

15
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:50,000
on the Twitter machine.

16
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:55,439
Speaker 1: Well, thank you. That was uh. I had reported that

17
00:00:55,799 --> 00:00:58,640
due to a restraining order issued by a judge and

18
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:02,759
believe Duluth, that the astronauts had to be sent back

19
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:04,439
up into the international space thing.

20
00:01:05,519 --> 00:01:10,040
Speaker 2: That was Yeah, you're probably not that far off from

21
00:01:10,079 --> 00:01:12,400
what's gonna happen in the near future, that's for sure.

22
00:01:12,599 --> 00:01:14,959
Speaker 1: It is pretty amazing. It goes into I notice you

23
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,920
use the term Democrats in disarray, which, by the way,

24
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,439
they really don't like that. Democrats do not like that.

25
00:01:20,799 --> 00:01:24,599
It's sort of like the Republicans pouncing and seizing or

26
00:01:24,719 --> 00:01:28,079
civil war. Republicans are always in a civil war, you know, Democrats,

27
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:33,040
they're very sensitive to this in disarray framing. But I

28
00:01:33,079 --> 00:01:37,239
don't know another thing another way to describe why they

29
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:41,519
seem to be seizing, as I might say, on all

30
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:45,680
of the worst positions in these issues, like they're now

31
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:50,239
like they're they're in defense of the trend a arragua

32
00:01:50,359 --> 00:01:56,599
criminal violent offenders not getting deported. Yeah, I just can't

33
00:01:56,599 --> 00:02:00,719
make I can't make sense of it except that they

34
00:02:00,319 --> 00:02:03,599
that they just want to destabilize. That's the whole point.

35
00:02:04,079 --> 00:02:07,519
Speaker 2: It's just I mean, I don't know, trunk arrangement system

36
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:12,159
has totally cooked these people. It's like they're doubling down

37
00:02:12,319 --> 00:02:16,319
everything voters told them that they rejected in November. They're

38
00:02:16,439 --> 00:02:20,520
just continuing to double down on the transgender stuff too.

39
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:24,199
They're still doubling down on the transgender stuff. And it's like,

40
00:02:24,199 --> 00:02:27,280
when you guys can get this is not popular, it's

41
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,280
not going to be popular with the American people. But

42
00:02:30,319 --> 00:02:32,840
you know, I'm kind of enjoying it from my view

43
00:02:32,879 --> 00:02:35,159
in the cheap seats. I'm kind of enjoying all of it,

44
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,240
especially what's going on with Chuck Schumer. I mean, it's

45
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:42,360
just astonishing how his fall from grace has happened in

46
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:44,000
a matter of just a couple of weeks.

47
00:02:44,039 --> 00:02:46,759
Speaker 1: Really, So let me play a clip that you referenced

48
00:02:46,759 --> 00:02:50,800
in one of your pieces on Chuck Schumer. You've got

49
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,639
two pieces. One Schumer feels the heat as Democrat infighting

50
00:02:55,240 --> 00:03:00,080
over the continuing Resolution cave intensifies, and then he he

51
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:04,599
accidentally cuts a perfect GOP midterm ad and he was

52
00:03:04,719 --> 00:03:08,319
he made these comments on the view of all places

53
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,840
where I guess he thought he was in friendly territory,

54
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:13,759
so he let the mask slip a little bit.

55
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 3: Here it is, and you know what their attitude is.

56
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,039
I made my money all by myself. How dare your

57
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:21,159
government take my money from me. I don't want to

58
00:03:21,159 --> 00:03:24,719
pay taxes, or I built my company with my bare hands.

59
00:03:24,719 --> 00:03:27,319
How dare your government tell me how I should treat

60
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:32,560
my customers, the land and water that I own, or

61
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,840
my employees. They hate government. Government's a barrier to people,

62
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,879
a barrier to stop them from doing things they want

63
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,319
to destroy it. We are not letting them do it,

64
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:43,240
and we're united.

65
00:03:43,319 --> 00:03:45,719
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, So there you go, there's Chuck Schumer.

66
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,479
Is that the you think that's going to make a

67
00:03:47,479 --> 00:03:48,479
good gop ad?

68
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 2: I think it's going to be. Everybody was talking about

69
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,240
that yesterday. I watched about There's just absolutely no way

70
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,240
it is can be real. After you know, he's pretty

71
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,719
much turned everyone against him, his own parties against him.

72
00:04:00,039 --> 00:04:02,719
Now he's he's he's going to turn you know, any

73
00:04:02,919 --> 00:04:04,800
kind of middle of the road voters that might have

74
00:04:04,879 --> 00:04:08,000
been okay with Democrats, he's going to turn them away

75
00:04:08,039 --> 00:04:10,719
with with talk like this. I mean, his excuse is

76
00:04:10,759 --> 00:04:13,479
going to be that he was talking about the rich people,

77
00:04:13,639 --> 00:04:16,639
the quote unquote rich people, the small group he says

78
00:04:16,639 --> 00:04:21,839
that are allegedly controlling America and making decisions. But in reality,

79
00:04:21,879 --> 00:04:24,720
I mean, as you know, Democrats think anybody that that

80
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,560
that has any success whatsoever in business, whether they're an

81
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,120
employee or whether they're a business owner, they're rich. So

82
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,439
the rich for Democrats includes a lot of people. Yeah,

83
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,279
you know, so this is this is just it's just

84
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:42,879
like he's just throwing caution to the wind here. It's

85
00:04:42,879 --> 00:04:45,040
almost just like he just doesn't care anymore. You know,

86
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:46,560
He's just like whatever. You know.

87
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,720
Speaker 1: I just is it possible that he's suffering the same

88
00:04:49,759 --> 00:04:52,000
sort of cognitive decline as Joe Biden.

89
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 2: I think he knows what he's doing. That's that's the

90
00:04:55,879 --> 00:04:56,560
scary thing.

91
00:04:56,639 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 1: You know.

92
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,519
Speaker 2: With Joe Biden at least he had an excuse, But

93
00:04:59,639 --> 00:05:03,360
with Shuber, I mean, he goes back a long way

94
00:05:03,519 --> 00:05:07,680
in He's been there the late nineties, so he's been

95
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,639
around the way. He knows the way things were, and

96
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:12,519
you know, like I said, my thought process on this

97
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:16,759
is maybe the Democrats are trying to destroy the party

98
00:05:17,439 --> 00:05:21,079
to remake it. I don't know that that's the only well.

99
00:05:20,879 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: That would be very hey Gaelian of them. That's I mean,

100
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:27,439
that is in line with the Hegel and Marx school

101
00:05:27,439 --> 00:05:29,319
of thinking. So that does make some bit of sense.

102
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,519
I think he may be trying to position himself more

103
00:05:33,639 --> 00:05:37,759
to the liking of his Democrat voters after like you

104
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,360
mentioned in your other piece about the continuing resolution, that

105
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,399
he's accused of caving in and folding on this, even

106
00:05:44,399 --> 00:05:48,040
though this was something that the spending was like that

107
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:52,079
that was Joe Biden's package that they put together, and

108
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,040
so then he was like, look, this thing is going

109
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,360
to go through and we didn't. And if they tried

110
00:05:56,399 --> 00:05:58,639
to shut the government down, that would just allow the

111
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,560
Doge people to keep doing what they're doing. So he

112
00:06:01,639 --> 00:06:03,639
saw it as like, this is a no win for

113
00:06:03,759 --> 00:06:06,240
us to shut down the government. So yeah, do the

114
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:10,839
continuing resolution. Then you said that after this quote betrayal,

115
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:15,639
he's been on somewhat of an image rehabilitation tour, which

116
00:06:15,639 --> 00:06:17,959
I think the big problem there is that he is

117
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,920
Chuck Schumer and that's going to be difficult. I guess

118
00:06:21,959 --> 00:06:23,800
he's just not very good at this. I think that's

119
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,720
the thing is he's not good at sort of speaking

120
00:06:26,759 --> 00:06:31,480
the language of the leftist base that doesn't believe him. Also,

121
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,959
he's Jewish, and I think that that's a big problem

122
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,399
for him inside his base.

123
00:06:35,439 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 2: Now, No, it absolutely is. I mean, I don't know

124
00:06:38,399 --> 00:06:40,480
if you read the one about how he feels the

125
00:06:40,519 --> 00:06:44,040
heat in that particul of one, that the heat that

126
00:06:44,079 --> 00:06:46,040
he's feeling. He was supposed to be on a book

127
00:06:46,079 --> 00:06:48,560
tour this week. He had three different places he was going.

128
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,399
Baltimore was one. Can't recall the other two off hand,

129
00:06:51,439 --> 00:06:54,480
but there were two Democrats kind of strongholds that he

130
00:06:54,519 --> 00:06:56,319
was supposed to go to this week to promote his

131
00:06:56,360 --> 00:07:00,240
new book on anti Semitism, and he was I think

132
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,360
it was supposed to get underway the Monday or Tuesday,

133
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:06,560
and they postponed those days because of what they say

134
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,319
are security reasons. And the reality of it is is

135
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:10,560
that he doesn't want to fay.

136
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 1: Oh, Stacy, are you there? I think we lost Stacy. Yeah,

137
00:07:21,199 --> 00:07:22,279
we can't out there.

138
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:22,519
Speaker 4: You go.

139
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:23,879
Speaker 1: I just heard you.

140
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 2: I don't know what. I don't know what happened there, Okay.

141
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,079
Speaker 1: Right, so right, So he's got these events coming or

142
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,879
that were canceled due to security concerns, and you think

143
00:07:31,879 --> 00:07:33,879
he doesn't want to face his own voters.

144
00:07:34,319 --> 00:07:36,199
Speaker 2: He doesn't want to face his own voters. You know

145
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,759
that they've already been camped out at his home. They're

146
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,199
protesting in front of his home, as you know, regarding

147
00:07:42,639 --> 00:07:45,839
his his what they call his betrayal on the CR.

148
00:07:46,199 --> 00:07:50,879
And he canceled the the appearances for this week. He's

149
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,600
gonna he's going to reschedule him. But the thing about

150
00:07:53,639 --> 00:07:56,120
it is is that it's not just the protesters on

151
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,839
the CR that he's he's having to worry about here.

152
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:02,279
His book is on anti Semitism, so you can imagine

153
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:06,480
the pro Palace, the Prohamaths left is probably going to

154
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,000
make their way to some of these protests as well.

155
00:08:09,279 --> 00:08:11,360
So not you know, it's like the chickens are coming

156
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,560
home to roost for him. You know, his party coddled

157
00:08:14,759 --> 00:08:18,079
the pro Hamas left after the October seventh of twenty

158
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:22,519
twenty three attacks on the Israeli civilians, even he as

159
00:08:22,639 --> 00:08:26,120
the as the nation's top ranking Jewish leader in government,

160
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,839
he kind of coddled them, you know, after the fact

161
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,120
that a lot of chickens are coming home to roost

162
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,759
protruction rate, and it's going to be interesting to see,

163
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,320
you know, if this holds for the next few years.

164
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,679
With he's not up for reelection until twenty twenty eight,

165
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,080
but there are talk, there is talk about maybe changing

166
00:08:43,159 --> 00:08:47,080
leadership and the United States Senates for Democrats. It would

167
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,559
be interesting to see that happen. But it's like Democrats

168
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:55,159
are trying to basically cripple the Trump administration government, but

169
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:58,759
at the same time their infighting is crippling their ability.

170
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:04,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, it reminds me of the Moral Monday movement because

171
00:09:04,039 --> 00:09:08,480
at the same the similarities are that You've got right now,

172
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,679
a Democrat party that is essentially leaderless right there, There

173
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,360
isn't somebody and they I think that's what Chuck Schumer

174
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:17,559
is trying to fill this role. But he doesn't, he

175
00:09:17,639 --> 00:09:20,960
can't do it. He's lost the ear of a lot

176
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,399
of his base, as you said. And just like the

177
00:09:23,399 --> 00:09:25,559
Moral Monday movement, they they took over at a time

178
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:29,399
when the State Democrat Party had been obliterated by scandal

179
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,279
and election losses and everything else, and so they needed

180
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:36,399
some some other group or leader to emerge, and that

181
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:39,440
was William Barber for a brief period of time until

182
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,360
the Democrats could kind of reorganize.

183
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:43,039
Speaker 2: Yeah how'd that work out?

184
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:47,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, not so great, not so great, but and so yeah,

185
00:09:47,159 --> 00:09:49,200
so it's an attempt to slow it all down. And

186
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:53,240
to your point about coddling the pro Hamas factions inside

187
00:09:53,279 --> 00:09:55,799
their party, Uh, you know, I keep saying this, it's

188
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:56,960
a James Lindsay term.

189
00:09:57,399 --> 00:09:57,519
Speaker 4: Uh.

190
00:09:58,159 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 1: The issue is never the issue. The issue is always

191
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,679
the revolution. And that's been the true intersectionality of the

192
00:10:03,799 --> 00:10:06,919
left right. It's this idea that we need to destabilize

193
00:10:06,919 --> 00:10:10,679
the society in order to usher in the Marxist utopia.

194
00:10:10,919 --> 00:10:13,440
The problem is is that there aren't enough of those

195
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:17,639
people to vote to win elections for Democrats, so they've

196
00:10:17,639 --> 00:10:21,200
always had to kind of moderate their message writ large

197
00:10:21,639 --> 00:10:23,559
and to try to attract you know, people in a

198
00:10:23,639 --> 00:10:26,639
national election, but they don't have enough of them left

199
00:10:26,759 --> 00:10:28,759
anymore inside their party, it seems.

200
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,080
Speaker 2: Well, and you know, just to your point, just just

201
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,799
to show you that is their mindset, look at who

202
00:10:34,799 --> 00:10:38,600
they're looking to to be a possible challenger for Schumer

203
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,159
in twenty twenty eight. AOC.

204
00:10:41,639 --> 00:10:43,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I.

205
00:10:43,759 --> 00:10:46,039
Speaker 2: Mean there's people that we're seriously talking about. Well, I'm

206
00:10:46,039 --> 00:10:49,120
going to start donating the AOC's let's start a campaign

207
00:10:49,639 --> 00:10:52,000
to get her to run against Schumer. I mean, and

208
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,279
I wrote about this at the site at RedState dot com,

209
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,320
and a lot of people were kind of in, you know,

210
00:10:57,399 --> 00:10:59,720
they were kind of two mindsets to the AOC is

211
00:10:59,759 --> 00:11:02,080
not smart enough to win a statewide election. But you

212
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:03,799
know a lot of people thought AOC didn't have a

213
00:11:03,919 --> 00:11:06,200
chance when she won her first congressional race. It was

214
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:10,320
kind of an underdog. She beat an entrenched Democrat leader

215
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,440
in the House that you know, nobody thought could be beat.

216
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,639
And so I would put it faster but it just

217
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:19,440
shows the mindset of democrats. They just double down. They

218
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:23,360
don't ever learn from their mistakes. They just keep trying

219
00:11:23,399 --> 00:11:26,000
the same thing in a different way in hopes that

220
00:11:26,039 --> 00:11:27,840
they can fool people into liking it.

221
00:11:27,879 --> 00:11:29,679
Speaker 1: Well, and I think it's good, okay with that for

222
00:11:29,759 --> 00:11:33,480
the left. You can never go too far. That's that's

223
00:11:33,519 --> 00:11:35,440
the thing about the left. There is no too far

224
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,000
for the left. There's no limiting principles involved.

225
00:11:38,039 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 2: So yeah, I think I think we're seeing that with

226
00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,879
the judicial law fare, you know that's going on right now.

227
00:11:43,919 --> 00:11:46,799
I mean you've got activist judges, you know, as you

228
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,480
talked about in your previous segment, you have activist judges

229
00:11:49,519 --> 00:11:52,120
now who are actively doing the bidding of the hard

230
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:56,600
left and basically trying to hamstring every single thing, every

231
00:11:56,639 --> 00:11:58,960
single decision that comes out of the Trump administration.

232
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, Stacey Matthews, we always appreciate your time. She's a

233
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,799
writer at RedState dot com. Sister Toldia is the blogger

234
00:12:05,879 --> 00:12:08,080
name that she has used for decades, and she still

235
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:11,000
writes it. Right, They still credit you as Sister told

236
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,679
you over there. Right, Yeah, Yeah, I thought so, Okay,

237
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,440
very good. Stacy, will talk again next month. I appreciate

238
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:16,840
your time.

239
00:12:17,159 --> 00:12:17,440
Speaker 3: Pete.

240
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:18,159
Speaker 2: Thank you so much.

241
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,519
Speaker 1: Take care you too, great great stuff. I appreciate it

242
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:22,320
all right. If you're listening to this show, you know

243
00:12:22,399 --> 00:12:24,399
I try to keep up with all sorts of current events,

244
00:12:24,399 --> 00:12:26,480
and I know you do too. And you've probably heard

245
00:12:26,519 --> 00:12:30,600
me say get your news from multiple sources. Why well,

246
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,320
because it's how you detect media bias, which is why

247
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,559
I've been so impressed with ground News. It's an app,

248
00:12:36,759 --> 00:12:39,960
and it's a website, and it combines news from around

249
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,440
the world in one place so you can compare coverage

250
00:12:42,639 --> 00:12:45,360
and verify information. You could check it out at check

251
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:49,840
dot ground, dot news slash pete. I put the link

252
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,960
in the podcast description too. I started using ground News

253
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,720
a few months ago and more recently chose to work

254
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,759
with them as an affiliate because it lets me see

255
00:12:57,799 --> 00:13:01,639
clearly how stories get covered and by whom. The blind

256
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,480
spot feature shows you which stories get ignored by the

257
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:08,240

ground news as they make the media landscape more transparent.

263
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:33,039
To do, Pete says, or sorry, David says, Pete, keep

264
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,080
doing what you're doing. Let the Democrats keep being stupid,

265
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,120
and there will be no competition in politics. Maybe we're

266
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,919
at the start of a twenty year Republican run. Maybe.

267
00:13:41,919 --> 00:13:45,639
So this is what I told the UNC Chapel Hill

268
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,799
College Republicans when I went to speak with them on Monday.

269
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:53,240
I like, the parties realign, and then you got this

270
00:13:54,159 --> 00:14:00,639
societal epochs if you will, These eras the turnings twenty

271
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,559
to twenty five years each and we are in the

272
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,159
fourth turning. So this is the time of crisis, and

273
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:07,879
so we don't know what this is going to be.

274
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,559
But if you know that like after this and it

275
00:14:10,639 --> 00:14:14,360
runs through like twenty thirty, then after we get through this,

276
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:21,200
then we'll be at another high in the cycle. So

277
00:14:21,279 --> 00:14:23,960
maybe that's what this looks like. And by the way,

278
00:14:24,039 --> 00:14:29,840
the highs always return to more conventional moras, if you will,

279
00:14:31,039 --> 00:14:35,519
So they revert back to sort of the conservative or

280
00:14:35,639 --> 00:14:42,000
conventional ideas. The excesses of the previous three cycles are discarded.

281
00:14:43,559 --> 00:14:48,600
If you believe the four turnings theory. Dean, Welcome to

282
00:14:48,639 --> 00:14:49,080
the program.

283
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 5: Hello Dean, Hi Pete. Hello, I'm looking forward to those highs. Wow. Yeah,

284
00:14:55,519 --> 00:14:59,759
I mean so anyway, it's a little bit of a

285
00:14:59,799 --> 00:15:01,919
long time, but that's about it. I had a couple

286
00:15:01,919 --> 00:15:05,080
of comments, if I could please. Number one was just

287
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:11,240
something I experienced being a teenager in the sixties, and

288
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:15,679
that that this I saw as a banner where it

289
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:18,840
said transgender is not being able to serve in the military.

290
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:23,240
And I thought, gee, back in my day, if they

291
00:15:23,279 --> 00:15:26,120
had passed out of law, I knew about one hundred

292
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:30,639
of my friends that would have been transgender overnight, rather

293
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:34,799
than you know, go to Canada or go to Vietnam.

294
00:15:34,519 --> 00:15:37,279
Speaker 1: Right right to avoid the draft. You claim your transgender

295
00:15:37,279 --> 00:15:39,720
but you're not well, I.

296
00:15:39,639 --> 00:15:42,039
Speaker 5: Mean, if they're going to pass the law now, and yeah,

297
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:46,600
I think believe me. You think that people had stricter

298
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,559
morals and there were a lot of people that didn't

299
00:15:48,559 --> 00:15:50,600
want to serve. Of course, I didn't have one hundred

300
00:15:50,639 --> 00:15:54,039
friends either, so it was probably a smaller sampling size.

301
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:59,960
So but then can I make one other comment about

302
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:06,759
the Democrats? And then I'll okay, thank you. I appreciate that.

303
00:16:07,279 --> 00:16:13,039
I don't think that the Democrats, that the Democrats don't

304
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:18,759
reflect the political party. I think they more reflect the

305
00:16:18,919 --> 00:16:24,039
Washington establishment right now. And because I think it's it

306
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:28,679
had always been Republicans win, Democrats win, Republicans win, Democrats win,

307
00:16:28,879 --> 00:16:31,600
but the club stayed intact. And I think Trump has

308
00:16:31,639 --> 00:16:37,159
now interfered with the with what's going on for basically

309
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:40,480
the last couple hundred years. And I think that the

310
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:44,120
conversations today are very interesting, but I don't think three

311
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,200
years from now they're going to matter at all, because

312
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:50,440
I think it's going to be whether Trump gets a

313
00:16:50,519 --> 00:16:56,720
third term or everything gets realigned again. Would what you

314
00:16:56,759 --> 00:17:01,879
just said a third term, Well, I don't know. I

315
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:05,559
think the odds are probably two to one in Vegas

316
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:11,119
that somehow he's gonna take control and then somehow manage

317
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,039
a third term. So maybe it isn't two to one.

318
00:17:14,079 --> 00:17:16,119
I don't really know. I lied about that. Yeah, okay,

319
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:20,680
but there's there's conversation about, you know, not on the right,

320
00:17:20,799 --> 00:17:22,359
trying to revamp the whole system.

321
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:26,279
Speaker 1: Now that's a fever, No, that's a fever dream on

322
00:17:26,319 --> 00:17:26,759
the left.

323
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:32,079
Speaker 5: Oh okay. Yeah. I appreciate the time, and thank you,

324
00:17:32,079 --> 00:17:33,839
and your show is always so interesting. Why do you

325
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,680
have a Democrat on every second Tuesday of the month.

326
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:38,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, if you know any of them, tell

327
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:39,480
them to call in.

328
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:45,160
Speaker 5: Okay, there's aren't there a lot in Washington. They don't suck,

329
00:17:45,759 --> 00:17:47,599
They don't do confrontations anymore.

330
00:17:47,759 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, they a lot of times. Democrats don't like going

331
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,440
on shows where they get pressed on their beliefs.

332
00:17:55,039 --> 00:17:58,559
Speaker 5: Oh okay, yeah, all right, which I understand you talking

333
00:17:58,559 --> 00:17:59,079
to you, you.

334
00:17:59,039 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 1: Too, take care And I understand I wouldn't be able

335
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:04,799
to defend a lot of their positions either, So I

336
00:18:04,839 --> 00:18:08,720
totally get it. Here's a great idea. How about making

337
00:18:08,759 --> 00:18:11,799

359
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:29,039
the transgender in the military issue. This is one of

360
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:33,480
the what most recent four temporary restraining orders that were

361
00:19:33,519 --> 00:19:37,279
issued by left wing judges. So let's talk about that

362
00:19:37,319 --> 00:19:40,920
one a little bit, shall we. This is from the

363
00:19:41,039 --> 00:19:46,079
Washington Examiner piece by Ashley Oliver. Quote. A judge blocked

364
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,759
the Trump administration Tuesday from carrying out an executive order

365
00:19:50,079 --> 00:19:53,920
that bans people with gender dysphoria from serving in the military,

366
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:58,480
saying that the government was unjustly discriminating against people based

367
00:19:58,519 --> 00:20:04,359
on their sex and transgender status. So the lynchpin here

368
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:09,319
is that if a guy goes in and says I'm

369
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,680
a guy, then they're allowed to be in. But if

370
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:16,039
a girl goes in and says I'm a guy, then

371
00:20:16,079 --> 00:20:20,160
they're not allowed in. And that sex discrimination. See, because

372
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:24,920
the guy saying they're a guy would be allowed, but

373
00:20:25,039 --> 00:20:28,000
a girl saying she's a guy would not be allowed. See,

374
00:20:28,039 --> 00:20:34,759
So that's discrimination. This is the mental twisting required to

375
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:41,200
arrive at this position. US District Judge Anna Reyes, a

376
00:20:41,319 --> 00:20:47,400
Biden appointee, wrote in a scathing seventy nine page memorandum

377
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,359
that President Donald Trump's executive order on transgender service members

378
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:55,279
and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegzet's subsequent policy directive on

379
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,960
them violated the due process clause of the Fifth Amendment.

380
00:21:00,039 --> 00:21:07,839
My favorite citation from the memorandum, you know the little

381
00:21:07,839 --> 00:21:10,680
footnotes at the bottom of the court rulings where they

382
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:14,839
cite you know, various Supreme Court rulings or you know,

383
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:18,240
presdential cases and that sort of thing. This was my

384
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:21,000
favorite from her ruling.

385
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:25,839
Speaker 4: It says, quote, women were quote included in the sequel

386
00:21:26,519 --> 00:21:29,960
when passage of the nineteenth Amendment granted them the right

387
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:31,920
to vote in nineteen twenty.

388
00:21:33,039 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 1: See. So here's her citation for this. For that observation,

389
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:46,720
Lynn Manuel Miranda Hamilton, an American musical twenty sixteen, she

390
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:55,799
literally quoted Hamilton the musical in her ruling. It's I

391
00:21:55,799 --> 00:21:58,880
don't think that's law. I don't know, like I'm not

392
00:21:59,039 --> 00:22:04,119
a constitutional expert, but I'm kind of feeling like a

393
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:08,599
musical is not something that you should be citing in

394
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:13,240
your court rulings. Raya said her preliminary injunction will not

395
00:22:13,319 --> 00:22:16,480
go into effect until March twenty first, in order to

396
00:22:16,519 --> 00:22:19,000
give the DOJ time to appeal it. The case could

397
00:22:19,039 --> 00:22:20,960
be on an eventual track to go to the US

398
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:25,640
Supreme Court. The injunction from Reys perhaps came as expected,

399
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:29,880
after the judge had reamed out two separate DOJ attorneys

400
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:33,680
in two different hearings. She said in the hearings that

401
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:38,680
the attorneys were not addressing their animus towards transgender people.

402
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,240
She accused them of hating transgender people. The judge did,

403
00:22:43,839 --> 00:22:48,680
which is completely inappropriate, and she said they were ill

404
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:52,160
prepared to make their case. The DOJ issued a complaint

405
00:22:52,519 --> 00:22:55,400
to the appellate Court after the first hearing where she

406
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:59,240
engaged in this behavior, which the DJ called egregious and

407
00:22:59,319 --> 00:23:04,559
said she had a clear bias against the DOJ. She

408
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:09,599
writes in her opinion quote, defendant's position does not urge

409
00:23:09,759 --> 00:23:16,559
judicial deference to military judgment. It urges judicial abdication. No,

410
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,880
the law does not demand that the court rubber stamp

411
00:23:20,039 --> 00:23:26,119
illogical judgments based on conjecture. In fact, it requires the opposite,

412
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:29,279
because the executive does not enjoy a wholesale license to

413
00:23:29,319 --> 00:23:34,079
discriminate in matters of military policy. The law does not

414
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:39,319
demand that the court rubber stamp illogical judgments, illogical judgments.

415
00:23:39,319 --> 00:23:45,079
And why is this illogical? Well, according to the judge,

416
00:23:45,279 --> 00:23:48,200
men can be women, and there are forty different genders.

417
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:55,400
That's what she wrote in this ruling. Again, I will

418
00:23:55,759 --> 00:24:00,240
cite Charlie Kirk's observation. Had Donald Trump not won the

419
00:24:00,279 --> 00:24:04,880
presidency in twenty sixteen, this kind of judge would be

420
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,799
on the Supreme Court, and it would be a majority

421
00:24:07,799 --> 00:24:12,119
of the Supreme Court. And you can only imagine what

422
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:18,000
they would be ruling, she said. The military ban is

423
00:24:18,039 --> 00:24:23,200
soaked in animus and dripping with pretext new Its language

424
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:29,920
is unabashedly demeaning, Its policy stigmatizes transgender persons as inherently unfit,

425
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:34,839
and its conclusions bear no relation to fact. The fight

426
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,799
over transgender troops dates back more than a decade, when

427
00:24:38,839 --> 00:24:43,599
the Obama administration first removed the long standing ban and

428
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:48,279
allowed each service to decide its policy. So to Dean's

429
00:24:48,319 --> 00:24:53,440
call earlier, the ban on transgenders in the military, like

430
00:24:53,519 --> 00:24:56,279
that did exist? Your friends in Vietnam to avoid the draft.

431
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:59,200
They could have said that, but they did not. Why

432
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:04,119
did they not do that because society probably had a

433
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:10,240
certain view on you saying that. Society probably understood that

434
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:14,039
a guy going into the recruiter's office and saying I'm

435
00:25:14,079 --> 00:25:16,920
actually a woman like a guy like they wouldn't think

436
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:22,039
to even do that, because it's so ridiculous. It was

437
00:25:22,039 --> 00:25:24,640
so ridiculous by the way that it was a main

438
00:25:24,759 --> 00:25:30,039
character in the TV show mash Right. That's how Klinger

439
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,559
tried to get out of serving by dressing as a

440
00:25:33,599 --> 00:25:41,119
woman all the time. Trump came along and reversed the

441
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:47,200
Obama reversal, and then Biden comes in and on his

442
00:25:47,279 --> 00:25:51,240
fifth day in office, he reverses Trump's reversal of the

443
00:25:51,279 --> 00:25:58,119
reversal of the reversal. Transgender troops sued after Trump just

444
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:03,480
did the latest reversal, saying their qualifications and commendations prove

445
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:08,519
that they do serve capably. The judge Reyes agreed and

446
00:26:08,599 --> 00:26:12,880
said the Trump administration did no studies to contradict these claims.

447
00:26:13,039 --> 00:26:16,319
She said her decision rests on the twenty twenty Supreme

448
00:26:16,319 --> 00:26:20,640
Court ruling that found discrimination against trans people is discrimination

449
00:26:21,079 --> 00:26:24,559
on the basis of sex. That's how we got here.

450
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:29,839
But remember sex and gender are not the same unless

451
00:26:29,839 --> 00:26:32,240
we need them to be to advance the leftist project.

452
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:35,119
Hope that's clear, all right? So spring is here a

453
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:40,079
time of renewal and celebrations. You've got graduations, weddings, anniversaries

454

455
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:44,680
making memories that are going to last a lifetime. But

456
00:26:44,799 --> 00:26:47,799
let me ask you, are all of those treasured moments

457
00:26:47,839 --> 00:26:50,279
from days gone by? Are they hidden away on old

458
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:55,359
VCR tapes, eight millimeter films, photos slides? Are they preserved?

459
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:59,160
Because over time, these precious memories can fade and deteriorate,

460
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:03,000
losing them magic of yesterday. At Creative Video, they help

470
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:38,279
the details that createavideo dot com. I got a message

471
00:27:38,319 --> 00:27:41,880
from Timoteo who says Democrats are operating on the belief

472
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:45,359
that while Democrat presidents are free to govern as they

473
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:49,279
see fit, President Trump may only govern under the consent

474
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:53,519
of Democrats. Yeah, I mentioned this something along the same

475
00:27:53,559 --> 00:27:58,319
lines I think last week that I remember after a

476
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:04,160
president would win, then they got to expend their political capital,

477
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:09,839
and people in the legislature understood that, Okay, our guy lost,

478
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:13,279
their guy won. They're now going to do their agenda

479
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,759
and so we will you know, try to legislate to

480
00:28:16,759 --> 00:28:18,799
get what we can get. But there was a recognition

481
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,359
that that was the will of the people being expressed

482
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:24,119
through the vote. That is no longer the case. That

483
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:30,480
is no longer the case. The hang on second, did

484
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:37,799
I have a no? Okay? So the judge in this

485
00:28:40,079 --> 00:28:45,400
in this case about the transgenders in the military, rays

486
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,440
Anna Reus, you may want to sit down for this.

487
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:56,240
You ready, Okay? She is a prominent donor to Democrat

488
00:28:56,359 --> 00:29:01,440
political candidates and causes. I know. Oh, who would have thought, oh, Peter,

489
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:07,720
every judge makes donations. Yeah, well, some of these they

490
00:29:07,799 --> 00:29:10,319
kind of fall outside the boundaries of just like a

491
00:29:10,359 --> 00:29:16,599
political candidate, you know, maybe conflict of interest y kind

492
00:29:16,599 --> 00:29:20,160
of stuff. So the Justice Department filed a complaint against

493
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:25,000
this appointee for allegedly engaging in hostile and degregious misconduct

494
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:29,759
during the February hearings that I mentioned earlier. In the filing,

495
00:29:29,799 --> 00:29:32,839
the dj claimed that Reyus, who is reportedly a member

496
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:38,839
of the LGBT community, contested the validity of Trump's order

497
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:42,200
by disagreeing with the fact that there are only two sexes.

498
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:47,720
According to the court transcript cited by the administration, Reyes said, quote,

499
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:51,119
this executive order is premised on an assertion that's not

500
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:59,079
biologically correct. There are anywhere near about thirty different intersex examples,

501
00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:02,000
So someone who does not have just an xx or

502
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:06,119
x y chromosome is not just male or female their intersex,

503
00:30:06,279 --> 00:30:11,720
and there are over thirty potential different intersex examples. The

504
00:30:11,759 --> 00:30:15,119
complaint also accused Rays of questioning a Department of Justice

505
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:20,400
attorney regarding his religious beliefs and then using him as

506
00:30:20,559 --> 00:30:26,640
a physical prop in her courtroom. Theatrics. A lawyer named

507
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:30,440
Laura Powell said that her opinion relies in part on

508
00:30:30,559 --> 00:30:34,519
her independent research. When you read through this opinion, the

509
00:30:34,599 --> 00:30:39,480
judge acknowledges that she did independent research into disorders of

510
00:30:39,519 --> 00:30:43,079
sexual development, which is not part of the record in

511
00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:46,880
the case. Judges are not allowed to do this, yet

512
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:51,440
this judge is doing this because she is an activist first,

513
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:56,079
a judge second. According to FEC records, she has collectively

514
00:30:56,119 --> 00:30:59,960
given thousands of dollars to various Democrat candidates and causes

515
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:04,079
throughout her professional career as a private lawyer. So she

516
00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:06,960
was private at the time, but she donated to Barack Obama,

517
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:11,279
Hillary Clinton, Kamala Harris, Joe Biden. She also shelled out

518
00:31:11,319 --> 00:31:17,279
money for various House and Senate candidates, including John Osoff

519
00:31:17,599 --> 00:31:21,519
of Georgia, She's up, where is she out of Maryland?

520
00:31:21,559 --> 00:31:29,559
I Think? And AOC. She also has donated more than

521
00:31:29,799 --> 00:31:34,640
seventeen hundred dollars to an organization called Defeat by Tweet,

522
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:38,880
which is a Democrat aligned super pack that allows leftist

523
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:42,039
donors to sign up to contribute as little as one

524
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:46,599
cent to political organizers in battleground states for each time

525
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,720
President Donald Trump posts on to Twitter that was the

526
00:31:49,759 --> 00:31:54,160
whole super pack. That's what they did. The organization was

527
00:31:54,200 --> 00:32:00,839
reportedly launched with assistants from Patrese Colors, a co founder

528
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:05,200
of Black Lives Matter. She gave numerous donations to Win

529
00:32:05,319 --> 00:32:08,640
the Era, a political action committee founded by failed twenty

530
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:13,880
twenty candidate Pete Booty Gig and since at least twenty thirteen,

531
00:32:14,359 --> 00:32:17,319
she has also given dozens of small dollar donations to

532
00:32:17,559 --> 00:32:22,880
Act Blue, which has a bit of fundraising questions surrounding

533
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:24,640
in and a bunch of their leaders have quit over

534
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,279
the last few weeks. She spent the bulk of her

535
00:32:27,359 --> 00:32:31,400
legal career at a firm called Williams and Connolly, where

536
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:35,480
during that tenure, she litigated against Trump, whose policies she's

537
00:32:35,519 --> 00:32:37,640
now ruling on. As a federal judge. She was part

538
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:40,119
of the legal team representing plaintiffs in a challenge on

539
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:44,880
an asylum rule implemented by the Trump administration. The rule

540
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:47,400
was to make a legal immigrants who crossed the US

541
00:32:47,519 --> 00:32:51,720
Mexico border outside of a port of entry ineligible for asylum.

542
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,079
That's who the judge is in this case, an activist

543
00:32:55,400 --> 00:33:00,240
with a wardrobe change. All right, that'll do do it

544

545
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:05,000
