1
00:00:00.760 --> 00:00:04.120
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to KFI AM six forty the Bill handles

2
00:00:04.120 --> 00:00:10.480
<v Speaker 1>show on demand on the iHeartRadio f As you know,

3
00:00:10.599 --> 00:00:17.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm back from my vacation and I went to Ireland

4
00:00:17.280 --> 00:00:22.559
<v Speaker 1>and to Italy. And since you know, I'm a news junkie,

5
00:00:22.760 --> 00:00:26.879
<v Speaker 1>and you know, I'm really involved in presidential politics, not

6
00:00:26.960 --> 00:00:29.719
<v Speaker 1>personally but just following it. And you know where I

7
00:00:29.800 --> 00:00:34.039
<v Speaker 1>sit in terms of this election coming up, So there's

8
00:00:34.159 --> 00:00:37.200
<v Speaker 1>obviously no secret there. But I'm interested in what other

9
00:00:37.240 --> 00:00:41.479
<v Speaker 1>people think about America a particularly the presidential coming up

10
00:00:41.920 --> 00:00:45.320
<v Speaker 1>in a couple of weeks. And so every time I

11
00:00:45.399 --> 00:00:50.359
<v Speaker 1>ran in anybody, taxi drivers, people who were lining up

12
00:00:50.560 --> 00:00:55.320
<v Speaker 1>at tourist areas, sitting in airports, talking to people, I

13
00:00:55.359 --> 00:00:59.119
<v Speaker 1>would ask, what do you think about the presidential election?

14
00:00:59.719 --> 00:01:02.520
<v Speaker 2>And while we don't care about what's.

15
00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:06.680
<v Speaker 1>Happening in Ireland and how many people can mention that

16
00:01:06.879 --> 00:01:11.120
<v Speaker 1>there or know about the prime minister who's president of Italy,

17
00:01:11.319 --> 00:01:12.120
<v Speaker 1>no one does.

18
00:01:12.879 --> 00:01:14.400
<v Speaker 2>We don't pay attention to any of this.

19
00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:16.840
<v Speaker 1>Let me tell you what they do is pay attention

20
00:01:16.920 --> 00:01:23.439
<v Speaker 1>to us big time. The world follows American politics, especially

21
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:26.400
<v Speaker 1>the presidency.

22
00:01:25.640 --> 00:01:27.920
<v Speaker 2>And there are a couple of reasons for that.

23
00:01:28.040 --> 00:01:31.959
<v Speaker 1>First of all, the United States is still known and

24
00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:38.120
<v Speaker 1>considered the leader of the free world, both economically as

25
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:44.760
<v Speaker 1>well as militarily, and so when things change, things change.

26
00:01:45.280 --> 00:01:49.239
<v Speaker 1>For example, one of the themes about the presidential is

27
00:01:50.319 --> 00:01:53.719
<v Speaker 1>fear of Donald Trump if he wins. Not what he's

28
00:01:53.760 --> 00:01:55.760
<v Speaker 1>going to do domestically, but what are you going to

29
00:01:55.799 --> 00:01:59.519
<v Speaker 1>do overseas? For example, pull out of NATO. They're scared

30
00:01:59.560 --> 00:02:03.480
<v Speaker 1>to that NATO is going to be decimated. The US

31
00:02:04.200 --> 00:02:08.400
<v Speaker 1>is the primary contributor of both arms and money and

32
00:02:08.639 --> 00:02:13.639
<v Speaker 1>people in NATO, and they're frightened now. Donald Trump, to

33
00:02:13.680 --> 00:02:16.800
<v Speaker 1>his credit, threatened to pull out of NATO if people

34
00:02:16.840 --> 00:02:19.199
<v Speaker 1>didn't come to the table, if the country didn't come

35
00:02:19.240 --> 00:02:21.560
<v Speaker 1>to the table and pay their share of what was

36
00:02:21.560 --> 00:02:22.039
<v Speaker 1>agreed to.

37
00:02:22.719 --> 00:02:26.439
<v Speaker 2>Good for him for doing that. The fear, though, is

38
00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:28.599
<v Speaker 2>since Donald Trump is.

39
00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:32.759
<v Speaker 1>More isolationist than that, he's going to pull the United

40
00:02:32.840 --> 00:02:38.879
<v Speaker 1>States back and we're going to become more i would say,

41
00:02:39.199 --> 00:02:43.039
<v Speaker 1>more concerned about our domestic issues than what happens internationally.

42
00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:46.080
<v Speaker 2>I mean, we've done that before prior to World War Two.

43
00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:50.039
<v Speaker 1>The isolationists a matter of fact, one of the premier

44
00:02:50.120 --> 00:02:54.400
<v Speaker 1>ones was Charles Lindberg stay out of the war it's

45
00:02:54.479 --> 00:02:58.280
<v Speaker 1>their war. It's their war. Matter of fact, FDR kept

46
00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:01.520
<v Speaker 1>on saying, it's their war. I'm not sending troops over there.

47
00:03:01.560 --> 00:03:03.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to send American boys over there, even

48
00:03:03.719 --> 00:03:08.080
<v Speaker 1>though he wanted to, because there was such a backlash.

49
00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:12.439
<v Speaker 1>So it's happened before, and if Trump wins, they're frightened

50
00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:16.159
<v Speaker 1>that it's going to happen again, where the United States

51
00:03:16.280 --> 00:03:21.439
<v Speaker 1>is not going to be the force that supports Europe

52
00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:24.599
<v Speaker 1>for the fear of a Russian invasion.

53
00:03:24.680 --> 00:03:27.719
<v Speaker 2>For the most part, that's what NATO.

54
00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:31.840
<v Speaker 1>Was created for, and that is what it still is

55
00:03:31.919 --> 00:03:35.039
<v Speaker 1>involved with, especially now that you've got crazy guy putin

56
00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:37.919
<v Speaker 1>over there that doesn't seem to care and he's become

57
00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:42.520
<v Speaker 1>a rogue dictator. So one of one of those aspects

58
00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:46.960
<v Speaker 1>is fear of the United States no longer being involved

59
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:52.120
<v Speaker 1>internationally because of the isolationists thinking of Donald Trump and

60
00:03:52.159 --> 00:03:57.199
<v Speaker 1>Republicans the other theme, and they don't care what Trump says.

61
00:03:57.319 --> 00:04:01.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you know, we care about Alner, Donald Palmer

62
00:04:01.039 --> 00:04:03.520
<v Speaker 1>and the size of his schwantz. Everybody's making a big

63
00:04:03.560 --> 00:04:06.400
<v Speaker 1>deal about it because at a rally, Trump just argued

64
00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:10.599
<v Speaker 1>what a big Johnson Palmer had a right fine, They

65
00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:13.560
<v Speaker 1>couldn't care less. You know, what they don't do is

66
00:04:13.719 --> 00:04:20.399
<v Speaker 1>understand our politics. They just don't get Donald Trump. They

67
00:04:20.519 --> 00:04:24.839
<v Speaker 1>just don't understand him. They don't understand our Second Amendment.

68
00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:31.279
<v Speaker 1>They don't get it. We don't understand what that's about. Well,

69
00:04:31.319 --> 00:04:34.800
<v Speaker 1>it's in our constitution. Okay, it's in your constitution. Now

70
00:04:34.879 --> 00:04:39.040
<v Speaker 1>what why are Americans so obsessed with arms?

71
00:04:39.519 --> 00:04:40.439
<v Speaker 2>They don't understand that.

72
00:04:42.279 --> 00:04:46.199
<v Speaker 1>They don't understand why we don't have a national health system.

73
00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:49.240
<v Speaker 1>There is no industrialized country in the world that does

74
00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:52.079
<v Speaker 1>not have a national health system except the United States.

75
00:04:54.279 --> 00:04:57.879
<v Speaker 2>They just don't get it. What's that about?

76
00:04:59.000 --> 00:05:02.720
<v Speaker 1>So those with a two overriding themes that I got

77
00:05:02.759 --> 00:05:08.800
<v Speaker 1>from the Europeans. Number one fear of isolationism and number

78
00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:14.879
<v Speaker 1>two simply not understanding what America is all about, more

79
00:05:14.920 --> 00:05:21.040
<v Speaker 1>so than they've ever not understood, and so they don't

80
00:05:21.040 --> 00:05:24.399
<v Speaker 1>want to be on their own. They still look at

81
00:05:24.439 --> 00:05:27.279
<v Speaker 1>America even though it is not the power it once was.

82
00:05:28.920 --> 00:05:32.600
<v Speaker 1>After World War Two, the United States owned the world.

83
00:05:34.040 --> 00:05:40.360
<v Speaker 1>All of Europe was destroyed. You had Japan, who was

84
00:05:40.560 --> 00:05:47.120
<v Speaker 1>who was one of our primary our primary sort I'm

85
00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:51.399
<v Speaker 1>looking for here, I'll get there. I'm just I'm in

86
00:05:51.439 --> 00:05:54.800
<v Speaker 1>the middle of jet lag, enemy one of our primary enemies.

87
00:05:54.800 --> 00:05:57.240
<v Speaker 2>Thank you very much, Jamie. It was.

88
00:05:57.279 --> 00:05:59.759
<v Speaker 1>I mean, she was gone. If you want to call Japana,

89
00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:04.439
<v Speaker 1>she Our country's always cheese by the way I think

90
00:06:04.480 --> 00:06:09.879
<v Speaker 1>they are. Yeah, anyway, Japan was gone, Europe was gone

91
00:06:09.959 --> 00:06:14.680
<v Speaker 1>and was the only standing country was the United States

92
00:06:15.480 --> 00:06:22.360
<v Speaker 1>are manufacturing our system of government? Well, is it the same? No,

93
00:06:22.800 --> 00:06:26.279
<v Speaker 1>because you have China as a world power, Russia that collapsed.

94
00:06:26.319 --> 00:06:29.600
<v Speaker 1>What was the world power? It's we're not in the

95
00:06:29.639 --> 00:06:32.079
<v Speaker 1>same league as we were, but we're still the leaders

96
00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:35.720
<v Speaker 1>of the free world. We're still the economic juggernaut of

97
00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:42.240
<v Speaker 1>the Western world, and we're considered the bastion of not

98
00:06:42.279 --> 00:06:45.959
<v Speaker 1>only freedom, but of military might that's going to save

99
00:06:46.199 --> 00:06:48.319
<v Speaker 1>the world, the Western world, as we did before.

100
00:06:50.160 --> 00:06:52.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and whenever I don't know a word, write it

101
00:06:52.759 --> 00:06:54.399
<v Speaker 2>down and hold it up, would you please?

102
00:06:55.360 --> 00:06:57.879
<v Speaker 1>Okay, like they do with the Olympics nine point eight

103
00:06:58.000 --> 00:07:00.959
<v Speaker 1>eight point seven, you know that sort of thing, talking

104
00:07:01.000 --> 00:07:05.199
<v Speaker 1>to the astronauts board the space station, the International Space Station.

105
00:07:05.319 --> 00:07:07.439
<v Speaker 2>That's quite a get by the way, that kind of

106
00:07:07.439 --> 00:07:08.279
<v Speaker 2>an interview.

107

<v Speaker 2>As part of the denial, So good for Amy.

<v Speaker 1>these gets interview like that, we should all appreciate it

113
00:07:33.319 --> 00:07:35.800
<v Speaker 1>that one of our own has done that. I hate it,

114
00:07:36.480 --> 00:07:40.120
<v Speaker 1>and to be honest, so does everybody else. Amy, that

<v Speaker 2>Just to let you know. By the way, when is

118
00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:47.839
<v Speaker 2>the interview as it scheduled.

119
00:07:48.319 --> 00:07:52.279
<v Speaker 3>It's scheduled for this Wednesday morning. Ah, during wake up call.

120
00:07:52.680 --> 00:07:54.120
<v Speaker 3>I'm six am.

121
00:07:54.439 --> 00:07:58.839
<v Speaker 1>That's meat that is let's before do they have a

122
00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:02.160
<v Speaker 1>case with Wayne coming up at the bottom of the hour.

123
00:08:02.279 --> 00:08:05.519
<v Speaker 1>Let me tell you what's going on with the Veterans Administration.

124
00:08:06.240 --> 00:08:10.040
<v Speaker 1>If you go down to West LA sort of the

125
00:08:10.040 --> 00:08:15.199
<v Speaker 1>Brentwood area, you see the National Cemetery which is extraordinary,

126
00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:19.680
<v Speaker 1>thousands and thousands of graves meticulously kept, and then across

127
00:08:19.759 --> 00:08:24.199
<v Speaker 1>the street from that is the VA and the VA

128
00:08:24.680 --> 00:08:25.839
<v Speaker 1>the hospital.

129
00:08:25.360 --> 00:08:27.000
<v Speaker 2>Is there, administration is there.

130
00:08:27.079 --> 00:08:33.840
<v Speaker 1>But also on the VA land you've got well, let

131
00:08:33.840 --> 00:08:37.600
<v Speaker 1>me put it this way, you have the Jackie Robinson Stadium,

132
00:08:38.279 --> 00:08:42.639
<v Speaker 1>the parking lot. Also the Brentwood School has twenty two

133
00:08:42.720 --> 00:08:47.120
<v Speaker 1>acres and it is a twenty two acre sports complex

134
00:08:47.159 --> 00:08:52.759
<v Speaker 1>and Olympic pool, football stadium, basketball pavilion, tennis courts, baseball fields.

135
00:08:53.000 --> 00:08:57.519
<v Speaker 1>And the judge said, pursuing to a civil trial, he's

136
00:08:59.480 --> 00:09:03.759
<v Speaker 1>on you know why, because I want housing for veterans

137
00:09:03.759 --> 00:09:08.200
<v Speaker 1>to be on that land. And it's not just his

138
00:09:08.440 --> 00:09:12.600
<v Speaker 1>personal view, it is a legal decision based on the

139
00:09:12.600 --> 00:09:15.519
<v Speaker 1>fact that all of that land was given to the

140
00:09:15.600 --> 00:09:18.600
<v Speaker 1>United States I think it was eighteen eighty eight, came

141
00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:24.720
<v Speaker 1>under the Veterans Administration, and that land specifically is for

142
00:09:24.799 --> 00:09:28.039
<v Speaker 1>the use of veterans. The Jackie Robinson Stadium that is

143
00:09:28.080 --> 00:09:31.279
<v Speaker 1>not for the veterans, a Brentwood School, a private school

144
00:09:31.480 --> 00:09:35.279
<v Speaker 1>that is not for the veterans. And so the judge said,

145
00:09:36.639 --> 00:09:41.519
<v Speaker 1>we want housing. I want housing for veterans. And he

146
00:09:41.679 --> 00:09:46.159
<v Speaker 1>on Friday ordered the US Department of Veteran Affairs to

147
00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:50.840
<v Speaker 1>select a vendor within a week, have a contract within

148
00:09:51.039 --> 00:09:57.159
<v Speaker 1>three weeks after that to put up housing for veterans.

149
00:09:57.639 --> 00:10:01.120
<v Speaker 1>VA officials have to produce some temper housing in ninety

150
00:10:01.159 --> 00:10:02.600
<v Speaker 1>days before the rainy season.

151
00:10:03.679 --> 00:10:03.840
<v Speaker 2>Now.

152
00:10:03.879 --> 00:10:09.360
<v Speaker 1>Carter relaxes timeline on Friday, but pleaded that the contracting,

153
00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:14.240
<v Speaker 1>the site development, the installation well Okay, maybe can't do

154
00:10:14.320 --> 00:10:16.120
<v Speaker 1>it in ninety days, but we're going to do it

155
00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:17.919
<v Speaker 1>as soon as possible. And by the way, he still

156
00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:22.039
<v Speaker 1>keeps jurisdiction, so all the parties have to come up

157
00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:26.919
<v Speaker 1>with a plan and a contract.

158
00:10:27.120 --> 00:10:28.000
<v Speaker 2>And development.

159
00:10:29.639 --> 00:10:32.120
<v Speaker 1>Now can you do You can't do that in ninety days,

160
00:10:34.039 --> 00:10:38.279
<v Speaker 1>and he is basically said, too bad. He wants the

161
00:10:38.360 --> 00:10:41.240
<v Speaker 1>VA to create seven hundred and fifty units of temporary

162
00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:46.720
<v Speaker 1>housing within eighteen months on that campus, an additional eighteen

163
00:10:46.960 --> 00:10:53.200
<v Speaker 1>hundred permanent units over six years. And during that trial,

164
00:10:53.279 --> 00:10:56.240
<v Speaker 1>or at the conclusion of before we trial in which

165
00:10:56.600 --> 00:11:00.559
<v Speaker 1>the parties said, oh, no, we have leases, Judge said,

166
00:11:00.639 --> 00:11:07.039
<v Speaker 1>I don't care. Those leases are nullified because the VA

167
00:11:07.159 --> 00:11:10.679
<v Speaker 1>land was leased to private entities and this includes UCLA

168
00:11:10.840 --> 00:11:15.679
<v Speaker 1>and the Brentwood School, and this land is to be

169
00:11:15.840 --> 00:11:20.440
<v Speaker 1>used for veterans and you're not doing that. And the pool,

170
00:11:20.480 --> 00:11:24.679
<v Speaker 1>he was hilarious even said during the course of his decision,

171
00:11:25.320 --> 00:11:29.039
<v Speaker 1>and that is the pool that Brentwood has. I want

172
00:11:29.080 --> 00:11:32.679
<v Speaker 1>it filled with sand, and I want that done within

173
00:11:32.799 --> 00:11:35.600
<v Speaker 1>ninety days. I mean, this guy is getting really aggressive,

174
00:11:35.600 --> 00:11:36.200
<v Speaker 1>and he's right.

175
00:11:37.240 --> 00:11:40.360
<v Speaker 2>He's right. Veterans desperately need housing.

176
00:11:40.960 --> 00:11:43.720
<v Speaker 1>And when you have a piece of land that was

177
00:11:43.799 --> 00:11:47.879
<v Speaker 1>to be used for veterans and it's leased out.

178
00:11:48.279 --> 00:11:51.919
<v Speaker 2>No, no, that doesn't work.

179
00:11:53.759 --> 00:11:56.799
<v Speaker 1>Coming up, we end Monday with do they have a

180
00:11:56.879 --> 00:12:01.720
<v Speaker 1>case with Wayne Resnik? As he was a board ten

181
00:12:01.759 --> 00:12:05.159
<v Speaker 1>minutes after you've come back, the vacation never existed. It's

182
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:09.720
<v Speaker 1>like you're done, and I'm completely jet lagged. As my

183
00:12:10.039 --> 00:12:16.519
<v Speaker 1>mother would say before she died, I am lagging jets and.

184
00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:18.120
<v Speaker 2>That is absolutely true.

185
00:12:18.399 --> 00:12:22.320
<v Speaker 1>My mother had a really nice way of speaking in

186
00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:25.960
<v Speaker 1>terms of all these wonderful phrases that she had.

187
00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:29.960
<v Speaker 2>Now it is time, as we do every Monday, for

188
00:12:30.320 --> 00:12:30.759
<v Speaker 2>do they have.

189
00:12:30.759 --> 00:12:34.879
<v Speaker 1>A case with Wayne? Wayne Resnick and me? So Waine,

190
00:12:35.120 --> 00:12:37.559
<v Speaker 1>let's get right into it. And well, first of all,

191
00:12:37.639 --> 00:12:39.519
<v Speaker 1>let me tell everybody the rules. Wayne comes up with

192
00:12:39.639 --> 00:12:41.799
<v Speaker 1>cases that I've never heard of, that you probably never

193
00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:44.279
<v Speaker 1>heard of, and these are usually.

194
00:12:44.120 --> 00:12:45.360
<v Speaker 2>Cases of first impression.

195
00:12:45.480 --> 00:12:50.200
<v Speaker 1>Usually it's appeals courts, and they decide on one which

196
00:12:50.200 --> 00:12:53.080
<v Speaker 1>way that they're going to go, and then I guess,

197
00:12:53.159 --> 00:12:56.840
<v Speaker 1>as you guess, hopefully a somewhat educational guess, and the

198
00:12:56.879 --> 00:12:57.919
<v Speaker 1>reason why.

199
00:12:58.000 --> 00:12:59.759
<v Speaker 2>So let's do it Wayne, all right.

200
00:12:59.799 --> 00:13:02.360
<v Speaker 3>Well, in the late eighties, a man named Robert Bork

201
00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:06.039
<v Speaker 3>was nominated to the Supreme Court, and he was very controversial.

202
00:13:06.039 --> 00:13:09.639
<v Speaker 3>And one of the things that happened somebody got the

203
00:13:09.799 --> 00:13:13.200
<v Speaker 3>video rental store that he frequented to give them the

204
00:13:13.240 --> 00:13:17.039
<v Speaker 3>list of the videos that Robert Bork had checked out.

205
00:13:17.919 --> 00:13:21.799
<v Speaker 3>There was nothing salacious on it at all. In fact,

206
00:13:21.840 --> 00:13:24.720
<v Speaker 3>there was not even one R rated movie. So it

207
00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:28.200
<v Speaker 3>wasn't that it embarrassed him, but it was concerning that

208
00:13:28.480 --> 00:13:31.600
<v Speaker 3>the personal information of somebody would be given out. So

209
00:13:31.759 --> 00:13:35.639
<v Speaker 3>Congress passed the Video Privacy Protection Act that says a

210
00:13:35.720 --> 00:13:40.480
<v Speaker 3>videotape service provider can't disclose information. Fast forward to now,

211
00:13:42.120 --> 00:13:46.799
<v Speaker 3>this guy signs up with the NBA NBA dot com

212
00:13:46.840 --> 00:13:51.159
<v Speaker 3>on their website. They have videos of basketball things on

213
00:13:51.200 --> 00:13:54.399
<v Speaker 3>that website, and he also signs up for a newsletter,

214
00:13:54.480 --> 00:13:58.440
<v Speaker 3>an email newsletter from the NBA. Then he finds out

215
00:13:58.639 --> 00:14:02.480
<v Speaker 3>that the website has a little piece of code on

216
00:14:02.519 --> 00:14:07.039
<v Speaker 3>it that sends to Meta, the parent company of Facebook,

217
00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:10.120
<v Speaker 3>the names of the videos that he watches, when he

218
00:14:10.279 --> 00:14:14.360
<v Speaker 3>watched them, and his Facebook ID, the purpose of which

219
00:14:14.440 --> 00:14:17.519
<v Speaker 3>is so they can then direct market to him because

220
00:14:17.559 --> 00:14:22.000
<v Speaker 3>they know what he's into. He sues and says this

221
00:14:22.200 --> 00:14:28.159
<v Speaker 3>is a violation of the Video Privacy Protection Act. Because

222
00:14:28.200 --> 00:14:33.159
<v Speaker 3>they're revealing what videos he's watching. Again, there's nothing embarrassing here,

223
00:14:33.200 --> 00:14:35.840
<v Speaker 3>but it is a privacy issue. Well, the NBA, as

224
00:14:35.879 --> 00:14:38.519
<v Speaker 3>you might imagine, says, what are you talking about. This

225
00:14:38.600 --> 00:14:41.879
<v Speaker 3>is a website, it's a newsletter, this is not a

226
00:14:42.000 --> 00:14:45.519
<v Speaker 3>video store, it's not video cassettes. This has not That

227
00:14:45.639 --> 00:14:50.679
<v Speaker 3>law has nothing to do with this. And his lawyers say,

228
00:14:51.600 --> 00:14:56.080
<v Speaker 3>all the terms in that law are not defined. So

229
00:14:56.200 --> 00:14:59.000
<v Speaker 3>how do you know it doesn't apply to a video

230
00:14:59.120 --> 00:15:02.440
<v Speaker 3>on a website. Let's go to the courts and they

231
00:15:02.480 --> 00:15:04.720
<v Speaker 3>go up to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, and

232
00:15:04.840 --> 00:15:07.759
<v Speaker 3>keeping in mind that the law does not define any

233
00:15:07.799 --> 00:15:11.000
<v Speaker 3>of the terms it uses, do you think they took

234
00:15:11.000 --> 00:15:14.559
<v Speaker 3>a modern approach or do you think they said this

235
00:15:14.759 --> 00:15:17.039
<v Speaker 3>was passed at a time when they were only talking

236
00:15:17.080 --> 00:15:20.159
<v Speaker 3>about videotapes at video stores. And you have no case?

237
00:15:21.279 --> 00:15:24.080
<v Speaker 2>Okay, First of all, Oh good, that's interesting.

238
00:15:24.120 --> 00:15:29.080
<v Speaker 1>First of all, as far as defining whether or not

239
00:15:30.399 --> 00:15:35.000
<v Speaker 1>releasing a video or using information from a video that's

240
00:15:35.159 --> 00:15:38.480
<v Speaker 1>on the website, I don't see how big a difference

241
00:15:38.480 --> 00:15:43.399
<v Speaker 1>it is than releasing information by renting a video cassette.

242
00:15:43.519 --> 00:15:47.320
<v Speaker 1>You can't rent video cassettesa anymore therefore the law doesn't.

243
00:15:46.960 --> 00:15:48.039
<v Speaker 2>Apply at all.

244
00:15:48.720 --> 00:15:53.120
<v Speaker 1>The premise of the law is to keep private your

245
00:15:53.200 --> 00:15:55.600
<v Speaker 1>information under the circumstances.

246
00:15:55.960 --> 00:15:57.600
<v Speaker 2>The only argument.

247
00:15:57.440 --> 00:16:01.600
<v Speaker 1>I would make is the law is too vague because

248
00:16:01.639 --> 00:16:06.399
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't specific enough. Because usually when laws are too

249
00:16:06.519 --> 00:16:07.759
<v Speaker 1>vague they failed.

250
00:16:07.799 --> 00:16:09.679
<v Speaker 2>They have to have some specificity.

251
00:16:10.200 --> 00:16:15.679
<v Speaker 1>So I'm guessing that the court ruled that releasing of

252
00:16:15.720 --> 00:16:19.679
<v Speaker 1>that information was in fact in violation of federal law.

253
00:16:19.720 --> 00:16:21.519
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what the damages are. I have no

254
00:16:21.600 --> 00:16:24.879
<v Speaker 1>idea unless or statutory damages. Maybe it's just a court order,

255
00:16:24.919 --> 00:16:28.039
<v Speaker 1>effectively a cease and desist saying you can't do that.

256
00:16:28.879 --> 00:16:30.759
<v Speaker 2>But obviously he didn't do it on his own.

257
00:16:31.000 --> 00:16:34.919
<v Speaker 1>There were some pro privacy organizations or law firms that

258
00:16:35.000 --> 00:16:35.440
<v Speaker 1>wanted this.

259
00:16:35.440 --> 00:16:36.039
<v Speaker 2>On the books.

260
00:16:36.399 --> 00:16:40.159
<v Speaker 1>So I am saying that the court upheld the federal

261
00:16:40.240 --> 00:16:44.879
<v Speaker 1>law and that the provider in this case, the NBA,

262
00:16:45.279 --> 00:16:46.679
<v Speaker 1>cannot do what it did.

263
00:16:48.159 --> 00:16:52.159
<v Speaker 3>Yes, and I like the way you said it. Nowhere

264
00:16:52.200 --> 00:16:54.360
<v Speaker 3>really in this decision did they say it as simply

265
00:16:54.399 --> 00:16:58.279
<v Speaker 3>as you, which is there's really practically speaking, there's really

266
00:16:58.320 --> 00:17:01.679
<v Speaker 3>no difference between going to a website and watching a

267
00:17:01.759 --> 00:17:05.319
<v Speaker 3>video there, or renting a video cassette for the purpose

268
00:17:05.519 --> 00:17:09.319
<v Speaker 3>of your privacy. But they said he has a case

269
00:17:09.880 --> 00:17:11.279
<v Speaker 3>and the NBA does not.

270
00:17:12.079 --> 00:17:15.079
<v Speaker 2>M Now what happened? Do they go forward with that?

271
00:17:15.240 --> 00:17:19.400
<v Speaker 1>I guess the NBA does just to establish and META

272
00:17:19.400 --> 00:17:21.759
<v Speaker 1>would jump in just or Meta would jump in just

273
00:17:21.799 --> 00:17:26.960
<v Speaker 1>to establish the value of the information that's being given

274
00:17:27.000 --> 00:17:29.680
<v Speaker 1>to them by the NBA through the use of this,

275
00:17:29.759 --> 00:17:33.440
<v Speaker 1>because data mining is everything. That's where the big money

276
00:17:33.599 --> 00:17:38.319
<v Speaker 1>is on anything that you are looking at in terms

277
00:17:38.359 --> 00:17:42.359
<v Speaker 1>of websites or chat roobs or any interest or looking

278
00:17:42.559 --> 00:17:47.079
<v Speaker 1>up information on Amazon, you know what's on sale, all

279
00:17:47.119 --> 00:17:49.279
<v Speaker 1>of that. I mean, you know, I'll by stuff and

280
00:17:49.319 --> 00:17:54.559
<v Speaker 1>I immediately get pop ups, you know, constantly, you know,

281
00:17:54.720 --> 00:17:57.680
<v Speaker 1>I come on, I'm tired of it. You know, marital aids,

282
00:17:58.519 --> 00:18:01.079
<v Speaker 1>you know, lubricants. I mean, and I'm just tired of

283
00:18:01.079 --> 00:18:06.240
<v Speaker 1>getting those pop ups. Time very crazy.

284
00:18:06.359 --> 00:18:08.079
<v Speaker 3>There's an easy answer to this, just so you know

285
00:18:08.160 --> 00:18:11.559
<v Speaker 3>that you can give out the information if the customer consents.

286
00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:14.240
<v Speaker 3>All we really have to do is allow you say, Hey,

287
00:18:14.240 --> 00:18:16.480
<v Speaker 3>do you mind if we share your information so we

288
00:18:16.519 --> 00:18:18.480
<v Speaker 3>can give you ads you want to see instead of

289
00:18:18.519 --> 00:18:20.839
<v Speaker 3>ads you don't want to see, like Bill with his lube.

290
00:18:21.319 --> 00:18:24.759
<v Speaker 2>That's true. Okay, We're done. Guys, at least for the

291
00:18:24.759 --> 00:18:25.400
<v Speaker 2>first segment.

292
00:18:25.480 --> 00:18:29.039
<v Speaker 1>Let's come back and we'll go into another case as

293
00:18:29.079 --> 00:18:29.599
<v Speaker 1>we finish.

294
00:18:29.759 --> 00:18:31.359
<v Speaker 2>Do they have a case on a Monday?

295
00:18:31.680 --> 00:18:35.279
<v Speaker 1>All right, back we go with Wayne Resnik and me

296
00:18:35.599 --> 00:18:36.519
<v Speaker 1>do they have a case?

297
00:18:36.559 --> 00:18:38.640
<v Speaker 2>As we end our Monday broadcast.

298
00:18:38.440 --> 00:18:40.440
<v Speaker 3>Bill, I'm going to start this with a personal question

299
00:18:40.559 --> 00:18:45.559
<v Speaker 3>to you. Yeah, in the shower do you use for

300
00:18:45.799 --> 00:18:48.160
<v Speaker 3>washing your body? Do you use your hand? Do you

301
00:18:48.279 --> 00:18:52.519
<v Speaker 3>use a washcloth? Do you use a loof Uh? What

302
00:18:52.680 --> 00:18:53.279
<v Speaker 3>do you use?

303
00:18:53.559 --> 00:18:56.680
<v Speaker 2>I use a loofh oh.

304
00:18:56.200 --> 00:18:59.519
<v Speaker 3>Well, then you are kind of guy you would like

305
00:18:59.680 --> 00:19:04.839
<v Speaker 3>Charles Douglas Yoder. He also likes to use a loofah.

306
00:19:05.000 --> 00:19:09.880
<v Speaker 3>Sometimes they're called body puffs in the shower. However, he

307
00:19:09.960 --> 00:19:14.759
<v Speaker 3>has a problem you don't have. He's in prison, and

308
00:19:14.880 --> 00:19:19.160
<v Speaker 3>although they sell lufahs in the prison commissary, they will

309
00:19:19.200 --> 00:19:23.880
<v Speaker 3>not sell one to him because the prison rules are

310
00:19:24.440 --> 00:19:33.880
<v Speaker 3>lufahs are only for registered transgender inmates. Mister Yoda is

311
00:19:34.000 --> 00:19:35.359
<v Speaker 3>a cis gendered man.

312
00:19:36.720 --> 00:19:39.599
<v Speaker 2>But like what a cist gender, cis.

313
00:19:39.319 --> 00:19:43.559
<v Speaker 3>Gendered means you you agree with the gender that you

314
00:19:43.599 --> 00:19:46.880
<v Speaker 3>were born like a man a man. He's a man

315
00:19:46.960 --> 00:19:48.400
<v Speaker 3>and he identifies as a man.

316
00:19:48.440 --> 00:19:50.559
<v Speaker 1>And who was born a man, and he and that's

317
00:19:50.680 --> 00:19:54.880
<v Speaker 1>and he palmer with his huge fonts, a man's man.

318
00:19:55.119 --> 00:19:57.720
<v Speaker 2>As the president former President Trump.

319
00:19:57.480 --> 00:20:00.920
<v Speaker 3>Said, yes, yes, wasn't expecting to hear that callback on

320
00:20:00.960 --> 00:20:03.039
<v Speaker 3>the show this morning, but here we are. But you

321
00:20:03.119 --> 00:20:07.799
<v Speaker 3>are back. So they won't sell him the loofah because

322
00:20:07.839 --> 00:20:10.559
<v Speaker 3>he's just a guy. And they said, if you want

323
00:20:10.559 --> 00:20:13.680
<v Speaker 3>to buy a loofa from the prison commissary, you can

324
00:20:13.799 --> 00:20:19.839
<v Speaker 3>change your designated gender to female. We will then consider

325
00:20:19.920 --> 00:20:23.839
<v Speaker 3>you a trans inmate and then you are allowed to

326
00:20:23.960 --> 00:20:26.480
<v Speaker 3>buy the lufa. And he said, well, why is this rule?

327
00:20:26.839 --> 00:20:33.079
<v Speaker 3>And they said lufahs are a privilege item for trans prisoners,

328
00:20:33.119 --> 00:20:35.799
<v Speaker 3>which doesn't really explain why now it does it? So no,

329
00:20:36.119 --> 00:20:41.119
<v Speaker 3>he so he sues and the federal district court dismisses

330
00:20:41.160 --> 00:20:44.359
<v Speaker 3>his case and says, you don't you're not even stating

331
00:20:44.400 --> 00:20:48.440
<v Speaker 3>a case because you don't have a constitutional right to

332
00:20:48.640 --> 00:20:52.279
<v Speaker 3>buy something from the prison commissary, So how can you

333
00:20:52.359 --> 00:20:55.079
<v Speaker 3>have a case or acclaim. So he goes up to

334
00:20:55.119 --> 00:20:57.960
<v Speaker 3>the Court of Appeals where he explains and by the way,

335
00:20:58.000 --> 00:21:00.319
<v Speaker 3>sometimes I say he explains or he said, and I

336
00:21:00.359 --> 00:21:04.119
<v Speaker 3>mean as lawyers, he did all of this himself. And

337
00:21:04.160 --> 00:21:08.279
<v Speaker 3>he says that lower court judge is a moron. My

338
00:21:08.559 --> 00:21:12.079
<v Speaker 3>argument was not I have a constitutional right to buy

339
00:21:12.079 --> 00:21:16.319
<v Speaker 3>something from the commissary. My argument is this violates the

340
00:21:16.359 --> 00:21:20.680
<v Speaker 3>equal protection clause. If they don't want to sell lufus

341
00:21:20.759 --> 00:21:25.519
<v Speaker 3>to anybody, I have no case. Once they sell lufus

342
00:21:25.599 --> 00:21:29.799
<v Speaker 3>to anybody, they have to sell them to everybody unless

343
00:21:29.880 --> 00:21:34.079
<v Speaker 3>they can explain why it is necessary for running a

344
00:21:34.200 --> 00:21:40.039
<v Speaker 3>prison to treat people differently. That's my argument. Now, what

345
00:21:40.240 --> 00:21:43.440
<v Speaker 3>does the circuit court say, and what do you say

346
00:21:43.839 --> 00:21:46.759
<v Speaker 3>being a fan of the lufah Okay, First.

347
00:21:46.559 --> 00:21:50.839
<v Speaker 1>Of all, I think that the appellate court agreed with him,

348
00:21:50.880 --> 00:21:54.559
<v Speaker 1>and that the lower court judge was a moron. While

349
00:21:54.799 --> 00:21:58.720
<v Speaker 1>citizens do not have while people in prison do not

350
00:21:58.960 --> 00:22:01.839
<v Speaker 1>have the same right, First Amendment rights, etc.

351
00:22:02.119 --> 00:22:03.880
<v Speaker 2>And there is no constitutional right.

352
00:22:04.400 --> 00:22:09.519
<v Speaker 1>The discrimination here is so blatant, makes no sense whatsoever,

353
00:22:10.319 --> 00:22:14.160
<v Speaker 1>is so capricious, It is so discriminatory on its face.

354
00:22:14.759 --> 00:22:19.759
<v Speaker 3>I think he prevails. He does, which means the case

355
00:22:19.799 --> 00:22:23.519
<v Speaker 3>goes back down to the moron judge with some guidance.

356
00:22:23.759 --> 00:22:28.200
<v Speaker 3>You know, they compliment this guy throughout their opinion. He

357
00:22:28.319 --> 00:22:34.119
<v Speaker 3>must have written some very well reasoned arguments. They complimented him.

358
00:22:34.640 --> 00:22:37.920
<v Speaker 3>They said, we don't. We're not even sure what standard

359
00:22:37.920 --> 00:22:40.200
<v Speaker 3>of scrutiny we have to apply here. We don't have

360
00:22:40.240 --> 00:22:42.799
<v Speaker 3>to decide. We'll make the lower court decide. But even

361
00:22:43.000 --> 00:22:48.839
<v Speaker 3>if we say it's the lowest possible standard, rational basis standard,

362
00:22:49.279 --> 00:22:53.640
<v Speaker 3>even under that it's most favorable to the prison, this

363
00:22:53.680 --> 00:22:56.400
<v Speaker 3>guy's case should not have been dismissed. So he gets

364
00:22:56.440 --> 00:22:58.160
<v Speaker 3>to go have his day in court, and that lower

365
00:22:58.160 --> 00:23:00.200
<v Speaker 3>court judge is probably not gonna be happy to see

366
00:23:00.240 --> 00:23:00.599
<v Speaker 3>him again.

367
00:23:00.720 --> 00:23:03.039
<v Speaker 2>It's the way it goes. Two for two. I did today,

368
00:23:03.200 --> 00:23:03.519
<v Speaker 2>you did.

369
00:23:03.599 --> 00:23:03.640
<v Speaker 3>So.

370
00:23:03.759 --> 00:23:08.359
<v Speaker 1>We were talking about the lawsuit in UH which the

371
00:23:08.519 --> 00:23:12.920
<v Speaker 1>fellow sued about or the end or the National Basketball

372
00:23:13.000 --> 00:23:16.799
<v Speaker 1>League suit about its information being used and releasing UH

373
00:23:16.880 --> 00:23:21.359
<v Speaker 1>its information to META. And it occurred to me, why

374
00:23:21.480 --> 00:23:24.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm getting so many pop ups to go to.

375
00:23:25.119 --> 00:23:27.400
<v Speaker 2>Kentucky and move there.

376
00:23:28.079 --> 00:23:32.039
<v Speaker 1>Now it's kind of a stretch, okay, and you figure

377
00:23:32.079 --> 00:23:32.680
<v Speaker 1>it out.

378
00:23:32.960 --> 00:23:34.119
<v Speaker 2>Kentucky does it?

379
00:23:34.160 --> 00:23:35.920
<v Speaker 3>Does it have to do with two words that come

380
00:23:36.240 --> 00:23:38.799
<v Speaker 3>like come after Kentucky and people have.

381
00:23:38.839 --> 00:23:42.880
<v Speaker 1>To do with mailing a letter to Kentucky UH and

382
00:23:42.920 --> 00:23:45.799
<v Speaker 1>not mailing a letter, And that is what is the

383
00:23:45.839 --> 00:23:47.279
<v Speaker 1>abbreviation for Kentucky.

384
00:23:47.880 --> 00:23:54.480
<v Speaker 3>Oh, geez, Louise Bill, it's a stretch. I'm not gonna

385
00:23:54.519 --> 00:23:56.920
<v Speaker 3>say it. Do you want to just reveal what you're

386
00:23:56.920 --> 00:23:57.960
<v Speaker 3>getting at for someone?

387
00:23:59.480 --> 00:24:02.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? No, I'm not going to release it. People can

388
00:24:02.400 --> 00:24:05.279
<v Speaker 1>figure it out on their own, but it is. It's

389
00:24:05.319 --> 00:24:08.319
<v Speaker 1>a stretch, granted. All Right, Neil, just be as depraved

390
00:24:08.319 --> 00:24:08.720
<v Speaker 1>as ever.

391
00:24:08.880 --> 00:24:11.480
