Talk radio 12 00:00:33,799 --> 00:00:37,759 is a format that whose demise has been predicted time 13 00:00:37,799 --> 00:00:40,960 and again for the past thirty years, and yet a 14 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:45,000 station like WBT continues to just do a bang up job. Now, 15 00:00:45,039 --> 00:00:48,840 having said all that, I did mention right before the 16 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,640 break that the case against James Comy had been dropped, 17 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,159 and it's dropped in a funny way. It's a very 18 00:00:54,159 --> 00:00:57,799 political way of looking for a federal judge dismissed the 19 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,799 indictments not just against Komy, but also or Attorney General 20 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:04,400 Letitia James Monday. Not because the case didn't have merit, 21 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:09,400 not because the facts were wrong, just because the judge 22 00:01:09,519 --> 00:01:13,159 felt that the appointment of Interim US Attorney Lindsay Halligan 23 00:01:13,799 --> 00:01:17,040 was invalid. So the judge didn't feel that the attorney 24 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,599 bringing the case had validity, not that the information that 25 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:23,680 the Justice Department had was not good. The Trump had 26 00:01:23,719 --> 00:01:25,959 hand picked Halligan for the role limit increasing pressure to 27 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,599 bring criminal cases against See this is CNN's version of things. 28 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:35,040 Trump picked her to bring criminal cases against his political enemies. 29 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:37,920 And that's not true. I mean, James, if James coming, 30 00:01:38,239 --> 00:01:40,200 this is so weird. Leatitia James is the first one 31 00:01:40,239 --> 00:01:42,079 to say, no, one's above the law, and she broke 32 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,439 the law, which it looks like clearly she did, especially 33 00:01:44,439 --> 00:01:47,879 of these mortgage fraud cases. That's not going after your 34 00:01:47,879 --> 00:01:52,519 political enemies. It's going after criminal activity. And James coming 35 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,400 lying before Congress isn't because he's a political enemy. He 36 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:59,359 lied before Congress. If he was part of crossfire hurricane 37 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,959 and making up stuff and using his office to go 38 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,319 after a political guy, he very well could have broken 39 00:02:05,359 --> 00:02:09,719 the law. But CNN, again, this is where they just 40 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,840 can't help. That's a news story in which they're saying 41 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,759 it's going after political enemies. Now come, he's not running 42 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,319 for political office. Letitia James is Attorney General in New York. 43 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,319 It's not about increasing pressure, it's about did she break 44 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:24,680 the law? She's the one. They're the ones going out 45 00:02:24,719 --> 00:02:28,319 saying no one's above the law that includes them. So 46 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,520 the judge tossed out the cases without prejudice, which means 47 00:02:31,599 --> 00:02:34,080 that the cases against Comben James can be brought again 48 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:38,719 alleging the same conduct, and it will. Those cases are 49 00:02:38,759 --> 00:02:41,719 just not going to go away. Just worth mentioning. I 50 00:02:41,759 --> 00:02:44,000 will revisit the Charlie Sheen stuff, not right now, because 51 00:02:44,039 --> 00:02:46,479 I want to continue with the kind of discussion we've 52 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:53,080 been having on here. H interesting about where this stuff is, 53 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,680 but we want to continue the discussion about your neighbors 54 00:02:55,719 --> 00:03:02,039 and stuff, and the comfort with which both media, how 55 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:06,639 easy it is to gravitate toward what looks to be 56 00:03:06,719 --> 00:03:12,039 an easy way out of things. You know, the affordability crisis. 57 00:03:12,039 --> 00:03:17,439 Will just make houses more affordable, okay, food deserts and 58 00:03:17,759 --> 00:03:20,400 food and people. We'll just make free grocery, government run 59 00:03:20,439 --> 00:03:24,439 grocery stores. But it doesn't that sound like why hadn't 60 00:03:24,439 --> 00:03:28,479 anyone ever thought of that before? Make more affordable houses, okay, easy, 61 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,680 let's go build them. Let's go make grocery stores and 62 00:03:31,719 --> 00:03:34,960 fill them with products so that we can feed everybody. 63 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,919 And if you make something, nothing will create price problems, 64 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:44,680 quite like making everything free and affordable. Right. But this 65 00:03:44,759 --> 00:03:50,000 is it's a I'm gonna say this socialist and socialism 66 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,240 has the same appeal that a good mafia boss does 67 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,439 in a given neighborhood. And I say that because you 68 00:03:57,479 --> 00:04:00,479 know John Gotti and all these mafia king If you 69 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,879 look at there, there's all of these stories about them, 70 00:04:02,919 --> 00:04:05,639 hey pulling up a truck and giving away turkeys at Thanksgiving, 71 00:04:05,759 --> 00:04:08,439 and the neighborhood just loves them. Oh, dapardah, we love 72 00:04:08,479 --> 00:04:11,479 our turkeys. Or in South America, you go to Colombia. 73 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,280 Look at what Pablo Escobar. He built schools, he built 74 00:04:14,479 --> 00:04:17,879 affordable housing, He built lots of stuff for the poor. 75 00:04:18,959 --> 00:04:22,959 He even got elected to congress or the parliament or 76 00:04:22,959 --> 00:04:26,040 whatever in Mediine. Eventually got thrown out, and he killed 77 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,360 the people who threw him out because he's a drug 78 00:04:28,399 --> 00:04:31,639 kingpin and they they're psychopaths, and he was a psychopath 79 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,399 and he's killed people. He disagreed with silver led I 80 00:04:34,439 --> 00:04:37,279 mean silver, you know, silver or lead. Yeah, that was 81 00:04:37,319 --> 00:04:39,240 his policy. I can pay you off or I can 82 00:04:39,319 --> 00:04:43,959 kill you your choice. But socialism has the same appeal 83 00:04:44,439 --> 00:04:48,199 that a mafia boss does. You like him because he's 84 00:04:48,199 --> 00:04:50,759 not killing your family, he's not taking your money. He's 85 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,160 taking someone else's money and killing other people. And socialism 86 00:04:54,199 --> 00:04:56,360 does the same thing. It takes from other people and 87 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,000 gives And if you're the one receiving it, you think 88 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:04,480 socialism has this strange, wonderful appeal that's just not real. 89 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,959 Nothing has killed more people from a government standpoint the 90 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:15,600 history of mankind than socialism. But somehow, somehow, kids get 91 00:05:15,639 --> 00:05:20,720 through school and go to college and come out thinking, Ah, 92 00:05:21,759 --> 00:05:25,319 if only Cuba had done it different, if only Venezuela, 93 00:05:25,399 --> 00:05:27,680 if only the Russians had done it different, if only 94 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,079 the Chicoms did it different, then it'd be perfect. If 95 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,160 we can just tweak it just a little bit, and 96 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,000 don't pretend that shades of gray into the leftist way 97 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:41,480 of looking at things makes it better because it because 98 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:45,959 it doesn't. The left is just, you know, and sadly 99 00:05:46,399 --> 00:05:49,920 the mainstream political left in this country. The Democrats are 100 00:05:49,959 --> 00:05:53,319 marching in that direction, not away from it. But by 101 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,160 no measure would you say that the leftists are marching 102 00:05:56,199 --> 00:05:59,360 more towards the center. There may be a few centrist left, 103 00:05:59,399 --> 00:06:03,879 but not many because the popular, the popular left right now, 104 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,680 the mom Donni's, the AOCS, the Bernie Sanders Is, they're 105 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:11,000 marching left. Gavin Newsom is about the prettiest face you 106 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:15,800 can put on a leftist. But he's struggling now because 107 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,319 he he wants, he needs to appeal to the base, 108 00:06:18,319 --> 00:06:20,879 and the base is decidedly left of where I think 109 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,079 he would be more comfortable being. And these policies in 110 00:06:23,079 --> 00:06:26,519 california've been horrific, but he you know what he's going 111 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:30,000 to He's going to have a lot of support. Very charismatic, 112 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,240 very good at speaking, very good at pushing things off 113 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,439 to other people, not accepting blaming the Palisades fire. You 114 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:38,920 look at the number of permits that have been issued 115 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,639 by California to rebuild, and it's an emic at best. 116 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:49,360 But I digress. The mafia and the political left from 117 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:54,079 a policy standpoint, are not that far apart. The difference 118 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,360 being and I guess unless you're Clinton conspiracists, the difference 119 00:06:57,399 --> 00:06:59,279 being typically they're not going to take up guns and 120 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,600 shoot you, not not yet anyway, twenty years if they 121 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:04,560 become socialist yeah, they just line you up and shoot 122 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:06,600 you like they did in Russia. Socialism always leads to that. 123 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,000 It always leads to just dispersing, you know, disposing of 124 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,439 your political enemies because you can't you can't win the 125 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,800 argument against them, You just kill them. That's what you 126 00:07:14,839 --> 00:07:17,360 need to make them disappear, like the mafia does. The 127 00:07:17,439 --> 00:07:23,959 mafia just makes inconveniences disappear. So so next time you know, 128 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:27,160 you hear these socialists, you think in terms of mafia, 129 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,279 think in terms of the way they operate, because they're 130 00:07:31,279 --> 00:07:35,040 not that different. And earlier we had talked about the 131 00:07:35,079 --> 00:07:38,920 government solutions. You know, the Affordable Care Act wasn't. Inflacial 132 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:42,399 Reduction Act wasn't and producing you know, even the fifty 133 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,279 year welfare fifty plus year welfare state hasn't worked out. 134 00:07:47,639 --> 00:07:51,519 And when your next door neighbors believe that, it makes 135 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,120 it increasingly difficult because they hate Trump so bad that 136 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:57,240 they've abandoned the ability to debate issues. And that's where 137 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,199 our country needs to be. We are a country that 138 00:07:59,399 --> 00:08:03,000 likes to debate issues. We should. There's a there is 139 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:09,120 an absolute mental need for our nation to begin discussing 140 00:08:09,199 --> 00:08:12,800 big things, and not just because one side hates one person. 141 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,079 You know that that's nothing productive. I hope and it 142 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:21,240 is my hope, thought and prayer, indeed and everything as 143 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,199 we head through the season, that more of us start, 144 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,079 especially I mean on the right certainly, but on the 145 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,519 left as well, that they start realizing, you know, this 146 00:08:28,639 --> 00:08:31,279 hatred of one person isn't isn't producing anything good for 147 00:08:31,319 --> 00:08:31,759 the country. 148 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 1: You know, stories are powerful. They help us make sense 149 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:38,159 of things, to understand experiences.

There's always so much going on. 168 00:09:39,279 --> 00:09:41,039 I don't know if many of you were aware of 169 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,159 the recent Kurf fluffel involving a bunch of Democrats including 170 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,960 Mark Kelly and Center slogan saying that you know, hey, 171 00:09:48,039 --> 00:09:51,639 you military folks, you should defy orders because it's your 172 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:56,600 constitutional duty to defy illegal orders from your commander in chief. 173 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,840 This is the kind of rampant hatred and Trump derangements 174 00:10:00,399 --> 00:10:04,399 that the left gen's up without knowledge, without knowing if 175 00:10:04,399 --> 00:10:07,960 it's true or not, just saying it. It's kind of 176 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:09,879 like the mom Donnie Trump Meetia in the White House 177 00:10:09,879 --> 00:10:11,799 when the media, I guess they thought they're gonna have 178 00:10:11,799 --> 00:10:14,000 a gotcha moment and they asked one, I'm done to me? 179 00:10:14,039 --> 00:10:17,240 It was you know, it was oft replayed, but it 180 00:10:17,279 --> 00:10:19,240 was a it was a it was a great moment 181 00:10:19,639 --> 00:10:22,720 that it was illustrative of how the president acts and 182 00:10:22,759 --> 00:10:27,720 how Mom Donnie acts. The president doesn't have isn't consulting 183 00:10:27,759 --> 00:10:29,759 the polls. He likes to talk about it, but he's not. Look, 184 00:10:29,879 --> 00:10:32,480 he's he's an after pole guy. So he says stuff 185 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,960 and then the poles react to him. But they asked him, hey, 186 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,639 didn't you call the president a fascist? And blah blah blah, 187 00:10:39,639 --> 00:10:41,440 a bunch of more stuff, but a fascist, how do 188 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:46,519 you want to address that? And Mom Donnie's instinct, instinctuol 189 00:10:46,639 --> 00:10:50,480 thing was to instantly deflect and try to go into 190 00:10:50,519 --> 00:10:53,399 a different discussion, right, to steer away from the quest. 191 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,720 Don't answer the question. Answer the question you want to answer, 192 00:10:56,799 --> 00:10:59,080 not what was asked of you. He started to try, 193 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,039 and Trump interrupted before it even got, you know, ten 194 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:05,639 words deep, and just said, hey, you know, just yeah, 195 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,799 you did, and it's okay. It's it's easier than trying 196 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:14,519 to explain your answer. There's a classic Trump moment where 197 00:11:14,519 --> 00:11:19,159 he just preempted the entire discussion about whether Mom Donnie 198 00:11:19,159 --> 00:11:22,879 called Trump a fascist, which you did, and and deflated 199 00:11:23,759 --> 00:11:26,279 what was an apparent attempt to get them to turn 200 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,559 on each other and even get the president to turn 201 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,200 on Mom Donnie, which it wasn't the place or time 202 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:33,559 to do that. They had a meeting. Trump wants New 203 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,720 York to be great again. Obviously, Mom Donnie got elected. 204 00:11:36,879 --> 00:11:39,759 How do you make those two, you know, get along. 205 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,759 You know, where you disagree, you defund I mean if 206 00:11:42,799 --> 00:11:44,480 Trump says, hey, you're going to cut and cut and 207 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:46,200 cut the police department, We're not going to help you 208 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:51,559 do that. There's It didn't change the relative power of 209 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,120 either office. The mayor has certain powers. The state of 210 00:11:54,159 --> 00:11:56,360 New York has powers, and the federal government has powers. 211 00:11:56,639 --> 00:11:59,320 That's America's largest city or second largest, depending on how 212 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,440 you measure things. But there's a lot of work that 213 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,960 needs to be done and they have to find and 214 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,240 so the cooperative spirit was good. Mam Donnie tried to 215 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:08,960 portray it as I told the President how things are 216 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:14,240 and Trump said, yeah, we'll see. Trump didn't go afrom 217 00:12:14,279 --> 00:12:18,639 or attacking. I thought it was pretty classy, but I digress. 218 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,120 I want to go back to the Slotkin thing. Elisis 219 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,879 Slotkin a Democrat from Michigan. So she was one of 220 00:12:23,919 --> 00:12:27,240 the Democrats that last week had this video telling troops 221 00:12:27,279 --> 00:12:30,799 to defy their orders from their commander and chief, their commanders, 222 00:12:30,799 --> 00:12:34,480 their generals, whatever, the colonels, whoever's commanding them, because they 223 00:12:34,639 --> 00:12:38,960 are try They asserted that Trump was giving them unconstitutional orders, 224 00:12:39,639 --> 00:12:41,200 so that you knew there was going to come a 225 00:12:41,279 --> 00:12:43,559 time where somebody was going to have the wherewithal to 226 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,200 ask They ask them, can you tell us what those 227 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:54,080 unconstitutional orders were? And they did, and so it was 228 00:12:54,159 --> 00:12:56,960 just kind of a pathetic story. So Senator to Slockin 229 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:01,080 from Michigan admitted that she was not a way her words, 230 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,120 not mine, of whether President Trump had issued any illegal 231 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,080 orders to the military. Following backlash to a controversial video 232 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:10,559 that she posted, she faced questions during an interview on 233 00:13:10,759 --> 00:13:13,360 Sunday on ABC's This Week. By the way, I have 234 00:13:13,519 --> 00:13:17,480 noticed a shift in the tone of ABC News's coverage 235 00:13:17,519 --> 00:13:20,080 of things, doesn't mean that George Stephanopolis is still not, 236 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,519 you know, an absolute tool of propaganda from the left, 237 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,279 or the view is not of myopica. God, I don't 238 00:13:24,279 --> 00:13:27,159 even know what's channel they're on. But don't pretend that 239 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,639 the legacy media isn't dying on the vine right now. 240 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:35,799 But ABC is at least acting acting as if, you know, hey, 241 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,320 maybe there's some legitimate questions that need to be asked. 242 00:13:39,799 --> 00:13:42,559 So Slockin's on Sunday on ABC's This Week about what 243 00:13:42,639 --> 00:13:44,879 she wrote, do you believe President Trump has issued any 244 00:13:44,919 --> 00:13:48,039 illegal orders? Martha Raddits, who by the way, hates Trump, 245 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:53,159 and Slochin said, to my knowledge, to my knowledge, I 246 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,480 am not aware of things that are illegal, but certainly 247 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:57,679 there are some legal gymnastics that are going on with 248 00:13:57,759 --> 00:14:00,159 these Caribbean strikes and everything related to Venezuela. So, in 249 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,759 other words, no, you can dice, you can slice the 250 00:14:03,799 --> 00:14:06,200 dice and twist and turn all you want to, but 251 00:14:06,879 --> 00:14:09,679 she's the one doing jim nat. She said, legal gymnastics. 252 00:14:09,879 --> 00:14:12,679 The gymnastics are in her answer. Her answer is a 253 00:14:12,759 --> 00:14:17,080 complete backflip. Are there any illegal orders? You said in 254 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,600 a video to disobey illegal orders? And she's asked point blank, 255 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,279 We're there illegal orders? And she says, to my knowledge, 256 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,559 I'm not aware of things that are illegal, but there 257 00:14:26,559 --> 00:14:30,519 are some legal gymnastics. In other words, no, the answer 258 00:14:30,559 --> 00:14:34,240 is no. Rabbits pressed for specific accusations, and slocking pointed 259 00:14:34,279 --> 00:14:37,720 to her concern over Trump deploying National Guard troops. When 260 00:14:37,759 --> 00:14:40,159 you look at those videos coming out of places like Chicago, 261 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,480 it makes me incredibly nervous that we are about to 262 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:44,679 see people in law enforcement, people in the uniform military, 263 00:14:44,679 --> 00:14:48,759 get nervous, get stressed. It is very very stressful situation 264 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,759 for these law enforcement officers and for the communities. That's 265 00:14:51,799 --> 00:14:56,120 not true. I mean there's just making up stuff, just 266 00:14:56,279 --> 00:15:01,000 completely made up. She has nothing to go on, zero facts. 267 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,679 I think it was just it was just a statement. Widely, 268 00:15:06,159 --> 00:15:08,639 we say very quickly into all folks who come to us, 269 00:15:08,679 --> 00:15:11,440 this is a process. Go to your jag officer, ask 270 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,000 them for explanation, for top cover, for the view on things. 271 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,519 You know what, the military doesn't work that way. One, 272 00:15:16,559 --> 00:15:20,120 it's a meritocracy, and if you don't obey orders, they 273 00:15:20,279 --> 00:15:23,799 arrest you. You agree, that is that the military completely functions. 274 00:15:23,879 --> 00:15:27,279 Only because of that, you say, hey, we're gonna go 275 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,919 invade that beach. Why why are we gonna go do that? 276 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:33,440 What's the point? By the time you do that, you lose. 277 00:15:34,919 --> 00:15:37,039 And that doesn't mean the military is perfect. It doesn't 278 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:40,039 mean American diplomacy is always perfect. It doesn't mean mistakes 279 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,720 will get made. But the military functions, and the one 280 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,960 job of the military, this is a horrible It's gonna 281 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:47,679 sound horrible to many of you, but it's to kill 282 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,320 people and break things our enemies, and the better we 283 00:15:50,399 --> 00:15:53,399 do that to our enemies. And this sounds heartless, doesn't it. 284 00:15:54,559 --> 00:15:56,720 But it's to defend this country and anyone that wants 285 00:15:56,759 --> 00:15:58,879 to bring harm to America it's gonna pay dearly for that. 286 00:15:58,919 --> 00:16:01,320 And that's the role of the military in a nutshell. 287 00:16:01,399 --> 00:16:03,559 It's not a charity. It's not out there to do 288 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,919 great things. And the National Guard, by the way, being 289 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:10,360 deployed Operation I was reading this the National Guard in Charlotte, 290 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,879 Operation Charlotte's Web. Three hundred and fifty people deported. Man, 291 00:16:13,919 --> 00:16:17,799 it is a juggernaut of getting things done. Mayor Lyle, sorry, 292 00:16:17,799 --> 00:16:20,240 you're just wrong. You and your ilk are just completely 293 00:16:20,279 --> 00:16:23,399 wrong on this. And you should be trying to defend 294 00:16:23,519 --> 00:16:29,440 Americans and being Americans that are legally here. You should, 295 00:16:30,039 --> 00:16:32,799 You could, you can, And there's nothing wrong with being 296 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:36,759 on the same page as everyone else defending the country 297 00:16:36,799 --> 00:16:38,440 that you have an oath to serve, and you took 298 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:40,759 an oath when you became the mayor of Charlotte. 299 00:16:40,799 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 1: Here's a great idea. How about making an escape to 300 00:16:43,519 --> 00:16:47,000 a really special and secluded getaway in western North Carolina. 301 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,320 Just a quick drive up the Mountain and Cabins of 302 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:53,679 Asheville is your connection.

They didn't cite what 325 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,680 those illegal orders were. It was very generic and he 326 00:18:12,039 --> 00:18:14,319 could have said, I mean, it could have been any orders. 327 00:18:14,599 --> 00:18:16,559 You know, Hey, we want you to move. Nope, I 328 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,880 question that. Maybe it's illegal. Can't make me move? You 329 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:20,759 want me to go to Oklahoma? No, I think that 330 00:18:21,279 --> 00:18:24,160 maybe there's you know, it's just insane when when sitting 331 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,720 members in Congress make a video to tell the military 332 00:18:27,759 --> 00:18:31,160 to defy orders that that's that's it's almost treason us 333 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:32,720 if you think about it. Are they trying to take 334 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:34,880 control of the military. I mean, I know they're not, 335 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:38,640 but but you can't not question that it's treason US. 336 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,559 It's traitors. I agree with that. No, Matt, Can you 337 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:47,400 imagine can you imagine a bunch of Republicans tell as 338 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,039 much as they didn't like Obama, say hey, you on 339 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:53,319 that nuclear submarine, don't listen to the president's orders. You 340 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,599 at Fort Bragg, yes, I can call it Fort Bragg. 341 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,400 Now you at Fort Bragg disobey the president's orders. You 342 00:18:58,519 --> 00:19:01,759 people guarding the nuclear secrets that are that are sitting 343 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,759 on those missile silos, just don't listen any orders. Defy 344 00:19:05,839 --> 00:19:12,559 the orders. They're illegal. That that's the kind of Kookville 345 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:17,960 reality that those folks engaged in. And by the way, 346 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,640 the Department of War is reviewing a potential court martial 347 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,400 for Senator Mark Kelly after he urged military personnel to 348 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:28,039 reviews unlawfl orders. Also, Mark Kelly also cannot say what 349 00:19:28,079 --> 00:19:31,400 the illegal orders were. Is it a conspiracy theory they've 350 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:35,400 just come up with they're trying. They're now they realize 351 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,599 they've been caught. They should have never produced those videos. 352 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:41,000 They put those videos out. They're widely circulated, and now 353 00:19:41,039 --> 00:19:45,440 they look just they look stupid, they look foolish. I 354 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:49,319 can't even muster pity for these six these people. Their 355 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:54,240 derangement syndrome has extended to the point of they're willing 356 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:58,839 to throw their entire lives away being traders because they 357 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:02,160 just don't like the President. I don't know, I don't 358 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:04,039 know what they thought they were going to accomplish. That's 359 00:20:04,079 --> 00:20:05,480 the thing when I look at this, when I review 360 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,799 it and I look at that video, I'm thinking, what 361 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,400 did they If they got together and said, hey, we're 362 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,680 going to make this video and it's going to be released, 363 00:20:12,759 --> 00:20:14,480 and we don't like the president. We're going to get 364 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,680 the military to disobey him. Was that an attempt to 365 00:20:18,079 --> 00:20:22,079 create a coup? Be able to say, oh, Chad, be serious. 366 00:20:22,079 --> 00:20:24,880 Come on, well, now ask yourself what is it If 367 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,279 they got together and said the military should defy the 368 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:32,960 orders of their commanders. How high up should those defiances go? 369 00:20:33,279 --> 00:20:37,920 Should the generals decide, hey, we've got members of Congress, 370 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,440 let's have a coup, because then we're no longer a country, right, 371 00:20:41,519 --> 00:20:44,599 We're just we're a third world country. And that's what 372 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:46,799 these people were engaged in, or the actions of a 373 00:20:46,839 --> 00:20:52,960 Banana republic. I mean not to put too light a 374 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,839 point on this, but if you look at what Venezuela 375 00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:00,400 has done, so Venezuela has a non elected president that 376 00:21:00,559 --> 00:21:04,079 is running that country. The military. No one's one hundred 377 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:08,160 percent sure if the military is supporting Moduro. You have 378 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:11,200 a Nobel Prize winner that is a considered a leader 379 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,799 of the people that he she's so well known and 380 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,079 so popular now that he can't afford to get rid 381 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:20,240 of her. And you've got twenty percent of the US 382 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:24,759 military naval presence, the USS Jerald Ford. This amazing military 383 00:21:24,799 --> 00:21:27,799 power sitting out there in the Caribbean, from Puerto Rico 384 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,440 on down to Trinidad. You've got military personnel all through 385 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:33,720 that theater of operations. Now, many of you are concerned, 386 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:35,279 we're gonna just invade, We're just gonna take them, and 387 00:21:35,319 --> 00:21:38,720 you're going to hit the jungle beaches of Venezuela and invade. 388 00:21:39,319 --> 00:21:46,160 I am much more su I was gonna. I don't 389 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,759 know the proper word to use. I'm much more calm 390 00:21:48,799 --> 00:21:51,559 about this. I believe that what's happening is a lot 391 00:21:51,599 --> 00:21:53,920 of Spookville. I think there's a lot of CIA stuff 392 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:55,680 going on down there. To say, I think there are 393 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,920 a lot of meetings and discussions with high ranking military 394 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:03,440 leaders in Beniceula having meetings saying, hey, you know what, 395 00:22:04,519 --> 00:22:06,079 not to put too fine a point on it, but 396 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,519 why don't you guys just decide that Maduro's got to 397 00:22:09,559 --> 00:22:12,319 go and then allow the properly elected leaders of the 398 00:22:12,319 --> 00:22:15,960 country to take office and then you got our support. 399 00:22:16,319 --> 00:22:19,400 By the way, we have a battle carrier group off 400 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,559 the coast, and we have a lot of really powerful 401 00:22:22,559 --> 00:22:26,519 military things. So we got your back. Make it so 402 00:22:26,519 --> 00:22:29,759 so if they throw him out from within, and then 403 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:32,079 the problem for Maduro is where the heck does he go? 404 00:22:32,319 --> 00:22:35,000 How does he survive that? And that's where I think 405 00:22:35,039 --> 00:22:36,720 we are in venezuel I don't think there's any intention 406 00:22:36,839 --> 00:22:39,599 of a ground force invasion in Venezuela. This isn't Panama, 407 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,079 this is Manuel nor Diego. This is a very different situation. 408 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:47,319 But clearly our foreign policy is you are not going 409 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:51,880 to kill Americans anymore with the importation of these illicit substances. 410 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,799 We're not going to tolerate it anymore. It's kind of 411 00:22:54,799 --> 00:22:58,279 clear and present danger except above board. Tom Clancy novel, 412 00:22:58,319 --> 00:22:59,960 great novel if you ever get a chance to redaduce. 413 00:23:00,319 --> 00:23:03,039 But back to this, what these six people did. We're 414 00:23:03,039 --> 00:23:06,000 in a very tense situation. You know, We've got probably 415 00:23:06,039 --> 00:23:07,839 the greatest promoter of peace we've had in the White 416 00:23:07,839 --> 00:23:10,519 House in multiple theaters of operation, and now even the 417 00:23:10,599 --> 00:23:14,640 Nigerian situation has come to a head with Christians being persecuted, killed, 418 00:23:14,759 --> 00:23:18,480 kids being kidnapped, is a horrible situation. There's diplomacy in 419 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,480 the Middle East, there's diplomacy breaking out in Sub Saharan Africa, 420 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:26,839 there's diplomacy attempting to create diplomacy in Ukraine. We're obviously 421 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,680 wanting to find a peaceful solution in Venezuela in spite 422 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:31,720 of the military build up, and you've got Senator Mark 423 00:23:31,799 --> 00:23:33,559 Kelly and a bunch of other Democrats saying, hey, don't 424 00:23:33,559 --> 00:23:42,799 obey the military. I cannot understand that mentality. 425 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 1: All right, if you're listening to this show, you know 426 00:23:45,319 --> 00:23:47,319 I try to keep up with all sorts of current events, 427 00:23:47,319 --> 00:23:49,400 and I know you do too, And you've probably heard 428 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:53,480 me say get your news from multiple sources. Why. Well, 429 00:23:53,519 --> 00:23:56,200 because it's how you detect media bias, which is why 430 00:23:56,279 --> 00:23:59,440 I've been so impressed with ground News.

I'm a Republican, but they should 451 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,480 have went ahead in charge of Trumpet Minister, I mean 452 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:08,960 the Biden administration with trees and for letting all these 453 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:12,839 people come in. Nobody's held accountable. But on this six 454 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:18,200 that went against our government stating that we should not 455 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:22,920 follow orders in the military. That is the most stupidest 456 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:26,640 thing I've ever heard. They should be held accountable. Our 457 00:25:26,759 --> 00:25:31,160 government has got the word. Nobody is being held accountable 458 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:34,880 for their actions, and in my opinion, these people should 459 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:38,519 be expelled from all forms of government. 460 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 2: Well, certainly, you know it seems treason. It's on the 461 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,480 surface if you say donobate the military, but you have 462 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,519 no you have no basis for that claim, and you're 463 00:25:48,559 --> 00:25:51,119 a city member of Congress that those are trees in 464 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:53,720 his words, in my opinion, but my opinion doesn't really matter. 465 00:25:53,799 --> 00:25:56,880 It matters. I do think they're pursuing court martialing of 466 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:01,440 Mark Kelly on his words. But there will be repercussions 467 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:03,559 for these people that have no proof of what they alleged. 468 00:26:03,839 --> 00:26:06,079 So we'll see. But Dale, I appreciate the callin. Thank 469 00:26:06,079 --> 00:26:10,000 you for listening, man, Happy Thanksgiving and with us right 470 00:26:10,039 --> 00:26:13,359 now we looked. We appreciate Ernest joining us. Ernest, what's 471 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:13,880 going on? Man? 472 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:24,839 Speaker 4: Memory hadn't failed me. But I begin thinking about the 473 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:32,680 similarity of this video to the fifty one intelligence agent's letter. Now, 474 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:37,160 Anthony Blincoln drafted that for a specific purpose. It's a 475 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:40,640 dirty trick. This also is a dirty trick. And I'm 476 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:44,759 beginning to wonder if Lee Atwater hasn't been reincarnated and 477 00:26:44,799 --> 00:26:45,839 become a Democrat. 478 00:26:46,559 --> 00:26:48,680 Speaker 2: We know, Anthony Blake, that's a good one. 479 00:26:48,839 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 4: Anthony Lincoln grafted the letter and some of the intelligence 480 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:58,559 agents refused to sign it. I'd be interested in who 481 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:04,559 basically will the script for the video? Okay, and how 482 00:27:04,599 --> 00:27:07,359 many Democrats? Well, let's find out who wrote the script 483 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,000 for this video. They didn't come and they're not smart 484 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:15,039 enough to do that, and exactly who was approached to 485 00:27:15,079 --> 00:27:16,480 do it and refused to do. 486 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:17,039 Speaker 2: It and why. 487 00:27:17,559 --> 00:27:20,880 Speaker 4: But those are the questions. You know, you can't like, 488 00:27:22,279 --> 00:27:27,400 you can't, you can't cure stupidity, and like Senator Kennedy 489 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:31,240 would probably say, but I just wanted the similarity here. 490 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:35,160 This is the Democrats are becoming very adept at what 491 00:27:35,279 --> 00:27:40,160 I consider to be in the dirty trick department. And 492 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:43,599 this is what this was for a specific purpose to 493 00:27:43,599 --> 00:27:47,960 to you know, get at Trump. But that's my comment. 494 00:27:48,559 --> 00:27:50,599 Speaker 2: Well, Ernest, you know what, you packed a lot in there. 495 00:27:50,599 --> 00:27:53,039 I'm impressed. I mean, Ernest, you hit the Lee Atwater 496 00:27:53,279 --> 00:27:56,519 analogy that was greatly outwater, a famous political operative on 497 00:27:56,559 --> 00:28:00,400 the right being reincarnated and doing this kind of surreptitious stuff. Great, 498 00:28:00,799 --> 00:28:03,359 the great line there shows your grasp of history. And 499 00:28:03,759 --> 00:28:07,680 looking at this, I think you're right. All those questions 500 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,599 you ask, I think are legitimate lines of inquiry. That well, 501 00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:13,599 there's Ernest, But Ernest, thank you, and I do think 502 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:15,839 those are legit. Who was behind it, who came up 503 00:28:15,839 --> 00:28:17,920 with the idea, who refused to be a part of 504 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,440 that idea, who refused to make it again. You have 505 00:28:20,519 --> 00:28:23,000 six people in Congress that made a video to tell 506 00:28:23,039 --> 00:28:25,960 people to disobey orders in the military as saying that 507 00:28:26,319 --> 00:28:28,599 the orders were illegal, But they have no basis for 508 00:28:28,599 --> 00:28:31,200 what that illegal was. I don't know what they were thinking. 509 00:28:31,599 --> 00:28:34,200 Especially Mark Kelly, who was in the military. He would 510 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,160 never dream of that. But so every military commander ever 511 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:41,759 except Trump is doing something right. Just he's right. It 512 00:28:41,799 --> 00:28:45,519 was baseless, and it's worth knowing fifty one intelligence officials 513 00:28:45,519 --> 00:28:47,359 that we now know were wrong, that signed a letter 514 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:48,960 that was wrong, and there were many that refused to 515 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:53,000 sign that letter. James Comy Brennan, all these guys that 516 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,559 absolutely were out of their minds that have been proven wrong. 517 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,240 You're right. I mean, then the caller before talking about 518 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,440 the Biden administration being treason us with respect to the 519 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:04,759 defense of the US border, I mean, your number one 520 00:29:04,839 --> 00:29:08,480 job in the executive office is defend the nation against 521 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:13,079 against enemies foreign and domestic and coming across our border 522 00:29:13,079 --> 00:29:16,519 with millions of people as an invasion. If those people 523 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:18,839 and we don't know what all they came across the 524 00:29:18,839 --> 00:29:21,279 border with, we just know there's millions that did. But 525 00:29:21,319 --> 00:29:24,200 if an invading force. Now think about this, more people 526 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:27,720 came across the border under the Biden administration than have 527 00:29:27,839 --> 00:29:33,720 been part of the invasion of Ukraine by far millions more. 528 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:37,359 If an armed if every drug cartel had put a million, 529 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,279 two million, three million people at our border, basically the 530 00:29:40,319 --> 00:29:42,720 pop that were ten million population of La at the 531 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:46,119 border and invaded all at once, would the Democrats still say, uh, 532 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,640 they have a right to be here. We should give 533 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:53,839 them some benefits, and we should pass motions in and 534 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,000 ordinances at our local level to allow them to vote 535 00:29:56,039 --> 00:30:00,680 in an election. And yet that's what Democrats did. The 536 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,200 only difference is you spread out the millions over years 537 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,960 instead of it once. But imagine if they just all 538 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:10,960 came across at once, would the Democrats sit idly by 539 00:30:11,039 --> 00:30:13,839 and allow them? They would say no. But what's the 540 00:30:14,279 --> 00:30:16,720 only difference is you flattened out the time rather than 541 00:30:16,759 --> 00:30:20,680 all at once. If you don't defend the nation's borders, 542 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,119 why are you in the executive branch? Any of you? 543 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:25,279 We now know that the executive branch was being run 544 00:30:25,279 --> 00:30:29,680 by a bunch of kids, apparently just whimsically running things, 545 00:30:29,759 --> 00:30:32,279 and you had a vice president was word salading all 546 00:30:32,319 --> 00:30:34,960 over the country looking for root causes, going down to 547 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:38,440 Guatemala doing nothing. They wouldn't even go to the border. 548 00:30:40,039 --> 00:30:44,200 They wouldn't even go to the borders. It's untenable the 549 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:46,240 way they conducted themselves. But I do think that the 550 00:30:46,279 --> 00:30:52,160 whole Mark Kelly thing and trying to get to those 551 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:54,519 are questions, Ernest, Ernest appreciate you listening to the spot 552 00:30:54,559 --> 00:30:57,359 on who was behind it, who was behind the the 553 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,599 fifty one intelligence officials, And we never do get those answers. 554 00:31:00,599 --> 00:31:03,039 Do we know we know more about the auto pen 555 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:07,440 than we do about the fifty one Intel officials and 556 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,440 certainly about the market. I think this is Mark Kelly 557 00:31:09,519 --> 00:31:13,440 story and Slotkin going on National TV saying she has 558 00:31:13,559 --> 00:31:17,720 no evidence that there were any illegal orders. You you 559 00:31:17,799 --> 00:31:20,559 get away with that. I mean, I'm just trying to 560 00:31:20,599 --> 00:31:24,279 imagine Republicans doing that to Obama, saying don't justify the orders. 561 00:31:24,599 --> 00:31:26,000 You know, when they were going after bin laed to 562 00:31:26,039 --> 00:31:27,920 imagine if a bunch of Republicans said, don't do it, 563 00:31:29,039 --> 00:31:31,319 just disobey those order. Seal Team six, you guys should 564 00:31:31,359 --> 00:31:33,920 really disobey the orders. It would have been. It was 565 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,359 just it's just unthinkable. I mean, he's our president. Whether 566 00:31:36,359 --> 00:31:38,000 you like him or not, it's rerelevant. It's your president. 567 00:31:39,039 --> 00:31:41,319 Well this is Barack Obama, Bill Clinton. He's your president. 568 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,240 Don't have to like him. But you know what, when 569 00:31:44,279 --> 00:31:47,240 they're taking out the bad guys, that's our president. So 570 00:31:48,119 --> 00:31:50,640 I don't understand it. I think that I do think 571 00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:54,440 that there are going to be repercussions for these six. 572 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:56,359 I don't think Mark Kelly is the last shoot to 573 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:59,680 drop the pursuit of him being court martialed or whatever. 574 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,519 I don't think this at the end. And I it's 575 00:32:02,519 --> 00:32:04,960 so funny. During the break, I checked out the feeds 576 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:09,640 and Hakeem Jeffries that the had gone on Twitter for 577 00:32:09,839 --> 00:32:13,480 or formerly Twitter now x and said that the charges 578 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:16,920 had been dropped. And it's so funny that the way 579 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:21,680 he worded it was strange to me, he said. He said, 580 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:25,079 the baseless indictment against the attorney attorney trist James has 581 00:32:25,079 --> 00:32:28,640 been dismissed. He didn't mention Komy, but Komy was also 582 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:30,720 the only Tis James, which makes it look like they're 583 00:32:30,759 --> 00:32:33,680 a racial component to what Hakeem says, and then the 584 00:32:33,759 --> 00:32:35,839 Minority of the year said that. But that is not 585 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:39,880 what was dismissed. It wasn't dismissed because the claims were baseless. 586 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:41,960 It was dismissed because the judge didn't like who was 587 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:47,240 appointed to prosecute it. That's what was dismissed. I'm not 588 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:48,559 going to use the nickname that a lot of people 589 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,039 on the right refer to Akiem as, but but Jeffries, 590 00:32:51,039 --> 00:32:55,000 I think has become one of the greatest assets for 591 00:32:55,039 --> 00:32:58,759 the Republican's re election campaigns next year, if ever there 592 00:32:58,839 --> 00:33:03,640 was someone who's were words have been absolutely a gold 593 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:07,240 mine for baseless mentality. I mean. And on the other 594 00:33:07,279 --> 00:33:09,240 side of the break we'll get into because the King, 595 00:33:09,279 --> 00:33:11,000 Jeffries claim that the government shut down and what the 596 00:33:11,039 --> 00:33:14,599 Democrats did was about because they cared about people in healthcare, 597 00:33:15,119 --> 00:33:17,880 and that's absolutely not true. It's a baseless claim. If 598 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,519 you're a Democrat out there thinking your Democrats defended healthcare, 599 00:33:20,559 --> 00:33:23,079 they did no such thing. They did nothing about Their 600 00:33:23,119 --> 00:33:25,519 objections had anything to do with the healthcare system. It 601 00:33:25,559 --> 00:33:27,559 had nothing to do with access to the healthcare system. 602 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:29,240 It had nothing to do with the number of doctors. 603 00:33:29,359 --> 00:33:30,839 It had nothing to do with why the prices are 604 00:33:30,839 --> 00:33:33,720 going through the roof. All it did was want to 605 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,759 throw more money at an existing problem without making it 606 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:41,960 one penny better. It was about just redistributing money into 607 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:46,519 a broken system, like throwing money into a solvment. You 608 00:33:46,559 --> 00:33:49,839 know those machines where throw themulching machines where you throw 609 00:33:49,839 --> 00:33:53,400 the branching and just disintegrates it. The Democrats objection to 610 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:55,680 and the way they shut down the government was an 611 00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:59,839 attempt to just throw money in a woodchipper. That was, 612 00:34:00,079 --> 00:34:03,920 it would not have contributed one time to bringing down 613 00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:06,640 healthcare costs for Americans. All it was going to do 614 00:34:06,759 --> 00:34:09,039 was subsidize the broken system. We'll talk a little bit 615 00:34:09,079 --> 00:34:10,039 about that in the third hour. 616 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:12,679 Speaker 1: All right, that'll do it for this episode.
