But even Abby fourteen the music play, let's 46 00:03:12,879 --> 00:03:13,759 listen to Abbey. 47 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,039 Speaker 9: There is an issue here with an issue here, a 48 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:23,439 very prominent Democrats, Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders two among them, 49 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:28,240 who are who basically turned the other the other way 50 00:03:28,439 --> 00:03:31,000 at the first set of allegations. Why does it take 51 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:32,520 a sexual assault allegation? 52 00:03:33,199 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 1: Right? 53 00:03:33,439 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 10: I mean the point I heard Kirsen Jeli Brownson or 54 00:03:35,759 --> 00:03:38,159 Kristen Jeil Brown speak at the aspens of two last week, 55 00:03:38,599 --> 00:03:41,039 and granted, all she had to say was that he 56 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:42,919 was a strong candidate and was going to you know, 57 00:03:44,039 --> 00:03:48,000 sore to a victory. There was no even an acknowledgement 58 00:03:48,039 --> 00:03:50,319 of the New York Times report of the Nazi tattoo. 59 00:03:51,039 --> 00:03:53,400 And if you all well remember this is the same 60 00:03:53,479 --> 00:03:55,560 senator who was called the me too Senator because of 61 00:03:55,599 --> 00:03:57,599 part because she loved the charge in the stuff Franklin 62 00:03:57,639 --> 00:04:00,599 in the Senate. She very much you know, and instrumental 63 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:02,439 in pushing that culture forward. And I think me too 64 00:04:02,479 --> 00:04:05,199 is necessary in a lot of ways. But we didn't 65 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,000 need a rape allegation to know that Graham Platner had 66 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,360 already allegedly violated the standards that she set, and she 67 00:04:11,479 --> 00:04:13,800 was willing to sacrifice all her principles among many other 68 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,199 Democrats to go up against arguably the most moderate Republican 69 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,800 in the Senate, Susan Collins, who's already willing to go 70 00:04:19,879 --> 00:04:22,680 up against Trump. You know this is not some superpartisan person. 71 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 4: So yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Well I tell you what. 72 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:34,199 They're all gone today. Now, Democrats are fighting ladies and gentlemen. 73 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:38,600 Here's New York Times. Democrats begin clash over who repaces 74 00:04:39,439 --> 00:04:44,279 Platiner even before he exits. He hasn't officially gone yet, 75 00:04:44,519 --> 00:04:47,959 and they were already like vultures over the carcass, trying 76 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,800 to pick the meat to get different and then say, well, 77 00:04:51,879 --> 00:04:55,759 who's next. We got that from strip the carcass down 78 00:04:56,120 --> 00:05:02,079 and then look for our next prey. Democrats are amazing. 79 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,480 Progressives and moderates are gearing up for a fight over 80 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,399 it and as yet undecided process in me, Oh, that's 81 00:05:09,439 --> 00:05:13,600 the other thing. They're all scared esless. Figure out that 82 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,079 they're all scared esless to do a Biden again. They 83 00:05:17,079 --> 00:05:22,399 don't want to, they don't want a coronation again. They 84 00:05:22,399 --> 00:05:26,600 don't want an anointment again. And then I'm reading people 85 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:32,399 I'm reading I'm reading for people that are that are saying, well, 86 00:05:32,439 --> 00:05:36,199 you know, this is all unprecedented. This is where in uncharged, 87 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:41,000 No you're not. Does anybody remember the Torch? If I 88 00:05:41,079 --> 00:05:44,240 say the torch, Carlos, just look at me. Who the torch? 89 00:05:45,439 --> 00:05:47,040 Do you know what? Carlos? You know what I'm talking 90 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,759 about when I say the torch The Olympics. 91 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 2: Nope. 92 00:05:52,639 --> 00:05:54,759 Speaker 4: TJ. You have any idea who I'm referring to when 93 00:05:54,759 --> 00:06:01,480 I say the torch. Nope. Well that's why I'm the host. Uh. 94 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:05,399 The Torch would be the nickname given to Senator Robert 95 00:06:05,439 --> 00:06:11,519 Torrosselly of New Jersey. Now Torrisselly, you don't even remember him. 96 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:16,120 This goes back. Torrisselly of New Jersey, very popular senator 97 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:17,600 in New Jersey. In fact, I met him in the 98 00:06:17,639 --> 00:06:21,040 garden Actually, yeah, he never heard I met him in 99 00:06:21,079 --> 00:06:23,279 the garden Center. I was living in New Jersey at 100 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,079 the time. When I was hanging out at the garden center. 101 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,759 I bought a high biscus plant that day and the 102 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,079 Torch was walking around the garden center and I spoke 103 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:36,600 to him. Anyway, Robert Torrosselli was very popular Democrat. Now 104 00:06:38,079 --> 00:06:42,519 torris Selly also took stuff from people, took a lot 105 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,439 of stuff. In fact, Rush used to play this clip 106 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,680 of the as they rolled out the indictment on on 107 00:06:49,879 --> 00:06:52,720 Torrisselly of all the stuff that he was alleged to 108 00:06:52,759 --> 00:06:56,399 have taken a gold watch of this, that called TV 109 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:01,639 this anyway, the Torch, the Torch stood on the Senate floor, 110 00:07:01,759 --> 00:07:06,199 denied all the charges, yelled and scream I never never 111 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:10,879 took it anyway. It was close to election time like 112 00:07:10,959 --> 00:07:15,759 it is now. New Jersey had a rule that you 113 00:07:15,879 --> 00:07:19,720 couldn't replace the person on the ballot because the time 114 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:26,000 considerations the same way that if Planner doesn't get out 115 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,720 by the thirteenth of July, then it's too late to 116 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,959 get him off the ballot. So that's why a lot 117 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,800 of people believe everything is dropping right now, get him 118 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,680 off before that date so they can put somebody else 119 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,040 in there. But New Jersey had a rule it was 120 00:07:42,079 --> 00:07:46,240 already past the time. The Democrats got rid of Torch. 121 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,360 They got rid of him and they put someone else anyway. 122 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:53,279 The court just set uscrew the law. He's a Democrat, 123 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:59,240 will let it go as they always do. So the 124 00:07:59,319 --> 00:08:02,199 Torch Robert Tory. So this is not new ground. This 125 00:08:02,319 --> 00:08:09,360 is the way Democrats do things, and democrats states. But Democrats, 126 00:08:09,439 --> 00:08:16,920 including Chuck U. Schumer of New York who who endorsed him. Oh, 127 00:08:16,959 --> 00:08:21,040 and then there's Roe Kahana Rutrau rut raul Oh Ro 128 00:08:21,519 --> 00:08:24,360 Roe is out now pretending that all the Roe was 129 00:08:24,439 --> 00:08:28,480 his biggest one of his biggest advocates. And what Row 130 00:08:28,639 --> 00:08:32,600 has turned on him too, He's got to step down. 131 00:08:32,639 --> 00:08:37,799 All this is as long as Look, you had every 132 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:42,759 high level Democrat you can think of, including Jewish members 133 00:08:42,879 --> 00:08:48,360 of the elected Democrat party who It boggles the mind 134 00:08:48,399 --> 00:08:51,559 that you would have a guy who lied about his 135 00:08:51,759 --> 00:08:57,840 knowledge of having an SS the totenkov the SS tattoo 136 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:03,840 on his chest. But that didn't stop Democrats from endorsing 137 00:09:03,879 --> 00:09:08,759 the guy. And now all of a sudden, well this 138 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:16,399 is a bridge too far. They were, they knew. It's 139 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:18,840 just like it's just like, what's his face? You already 140 00:09:18,879 --> 00:09:22,159 forget his name because he's been gone now and people 141 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:26,279 don't even remember him. A good old Eric Eric Swowell 142 00:09:27,879 --> 00:09:36,320 remember him Coloses, Yeah, from California, caate Eric Swowell. Everybody knew, 143 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:45,559 they knew, But now it's a bridge too far. It's 144 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:50,000 just it is, it is stunning. Thirteen. Let's go back 145 00:09:50,039 --> 00:09:55,879 to Abby. Here is Abby Phillip on CNN last night, 146 00:09:56,279 --> 00:09:59,000 and this is some more of the discussion from the 147 00:09:59,039 --> 00:10:01,279 abbey present. 148 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:04,919 Speaker 9: And it's been interesting to see some of those people 149 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:09,519 who dragged this woman who was in the Lindsay Fifthfield, 150 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,159 who was in the New York Times story, They called 151 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:19,200 it uncorroborated claims. Another person basically said that she was 152 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:24,279 essentially a plant of the Republican Party. And now those 153 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:27,639 people have changed their tune. But I also think like 154 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,679 there's that an apology that needs to be had here 155 00:10:31,919 --> 00:10:34,279 and some soul searching that to be had here. Isn't 156 00:10:34,399 --> 00:10:37,320 enough to say, well, this woman I believe I didn't 157 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:40,399 believe the last one, And Lindsay Fifthfield pointed out to 158 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:44,600 Reuben Diego, mine weren't sufficiently troubling or serious for you 159 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:49,759 after that first allegation, it is fair to ask what's 160 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,720 up with people who have to look at the partisan 161 00:10:52,759 --> 00:10:55,639 identification next to your name before they decide whether or 162 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:57,440 not they're going to listen to you. 163 00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:58,399 Speaker 10: I believe. 164 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:06,399 Speaker 4: The Democrats who did this is the real question, not 165 00:11:06,519 --> 00:11:14,000 that there's not for nothing, not that there's no garbage happening, 166 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,759 that there isn't any garbage happening on the Republican side. 167 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,120 Let me just quickly say this and get it out 168 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:27,840 of the way. Yesterday afternoon, a well known so called 169 00:11:27,919 --> 00:11:36,279 conservative influencer posted on x that Mitch mcconno's brain dead, 170 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:43,240 and she apparently supposedly got the information from high level 171 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:52,279 White House sources. Today Scott Jennings, and there's a story 172 00:11:52,279 --> 00:11:54,720 in the Hill now about others who have talked to 173 00:11:54,759 --> 00:11:59,720 Mitch McConnell. Apparently he's not brain dead. So now you 174 00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:05,600 have every jackass that wants to be a political pundit 175 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:11,039 slash journalist on the crazy kook version of the right 176 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:16,360 suggesting that Scott Jennings is line one guy. For instance, 177 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,759 how do you have a conversation and not have taped 178 00:12:19,759 --> 00:12:26,519 it released the tapes? Like, what kind of total one 179 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:31,960 percent idiocy is this?

I 245 00:16:57,879 --> 00:17:01,080 would recommend they probably don't take it out, but they 246 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:04,640 can have a lot of money, especially if the market continues. 247 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:08,759 Speaker 13: Can you imagine if you did this during Trump a 248 00:17:08,839 --> 00:17:11,440 year ago, a year and a half ago, where the 249 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:15,079 market's gone up at levels. As an example, everybody said, 250 00:17:15,079 --> 00:17:17,920 when I got elected, there's no way that during the 251 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,480 four year period we'll ever hit fifty thousand on the Dow. 252 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:26,599 Speaker 4: And yes, fifty thousand on the Dow. Huh, long gone 253 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:30,519 way past that now, James Gans learning with you here? Okay, 254 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:36,640 I mentioned the kerfuffle that's happening on the internet with 255 00:17:36,839 --> 00:17:40,359 Mitch McConnell. Scott Jennings coming under a lot of heat. 256 00:17:40,759 --> 00:17:44,039 He's not the only one who talked with Mitch McConnell. 257 00:17:44,799 --> 00:17:49,039 John Thune, Senate leader Rhino said did he talk with 258 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:57,480 McConnell yesterday by phone? McConnell then spoke with the Republican 259 00:17:57,519 --> 00:18:03,559 whip John Brasso from Wyoming. They had a phone early 260 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,400 this afternoon. They had a phone called that one went 261 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:09,480 twenty minutes. They caught up on everything, including the main 262 00:18:09,559 --> 00:18:12,400 Senate race with Graham Platner and all the stuff that's 263 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:17,920 happening there, et cetera, etc. So it's multiple people that 264 00:18:18,039 --> 00:18:19,880 have now said they talked to him, and yet you 265 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:26,359 see these stupid rumors circulating online about him being brain 266 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:30,119 dead and all this garbage from these people. They all 267 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:34,359 just clickbait. That's all these people live for. Apparently, in 268 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:38,240 my mind, just somebody noticed me click on my posts, 269 00:18:38,279 --> 00:18:40,720 regardless of how absurd it is, so that I can 270 00:18:40,759 --> 00:18:48,839 get paid from social media. The Trump accounts. I want 271 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:53,319 to I mentioned yesterday that these Trump accounts are going 272 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:58,279 to do a lot for it is not just newborns. 273 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,519 Let us you heard Trump talking about them as we 274 00:19:01,599 --> 00:19:06,160 came back from the break, CNN, of all places, did 275 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:10,480 a didnist story you want to cut nine. This is 276 00:19:10,519 --> 00:19:13,599 part of the CNN story. 277 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,079 Speaker 7: All den When the free money machine is open and 278 00:19:16,079 --> 00:19:18,000 they're given out one thousand dollars, I think a lot 279 00:19:18,039 --> 00:19:19,920 of people want to know how do I get that? 280 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 8: So if you have a child that was born. 281 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,599 Speaker 7: In twenty twenty five or beyond, then you can get 282 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:30,240 this Trump account as long as you're a US citizen 283 00:19:30,279 --> 00:19:32,920 and you have a valid Social Security number for your kid. 284 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,200 And actually, if you apply for a Social Security number, 285 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,480 you can now apply for a Trump account at the 286 00:19:38,559 --> 00:19:40,440 same time with the same form. 287 00:19:40,799 --> 00:19:43,160 Speaker 8: So what are the rules. How do you get this? 288 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:47,759 Speaker 7: Well, you can contribute five thousand dollars a year tax free, 289 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:54,000 tax deductible investments in a low cost index fund. That's 290 00:19:54,039 --> 00:19:55,680 like the S and P five hundred. Remember the S 291 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,960 and P five hundred made three hundred percent over the 292 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,440 past ten years. That could be a really good investment. 293 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,319 But you know, even if you don't invest in it, 294 00:20:05,319 --> 00:20:07,240 it's a pretty good deal, and you can use it 295 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,839 for things like college, obviously, because when you're eighteen, that's 296 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:12,960 one of the places that you're going, but you may not. 297 00:20:13,319 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 8: You might want to use it for your first home. 298 00:20:15,279 --> 00:20:17,319 Speaker 7: You can even just keep it in your account and 299 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,160 use it for retirement. If you use it for something 300 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,400 that's not one of these, though, then you do get 301 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,119 a ten percent penalty and you have to pay those 302 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,559 taxes that I mentioned before. 303 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:29,200 Speaker 8: Now, if you do. 304 00:20:29,039 --> 00:20:31,519 Speaker 7: Not contribute to this and you just keep one thousand 305 00:20:31,559 --> 00:20:34,599 dollars still with a ten percent return, which is pretty 306 00:20:34,599 --> 00:20:36,799 conservative over the past ten years, look at this, you 307 00:20:36,839 --> 00:20:40,119 can still walk away with five five hundred dollars for 308 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:41,799 college or something else like that. 309 00:20:42,079 --> 00:20:43,759 Speaker 8: Now, that's not going to pay for college. 310 00:20:43,799 --> 00:20:47,519 Speaker 7: If you do max out your contributions, you're talking about 311 00:20:47,519 --> 00:20:52,039 some really serious money, about a quarter million dollars by 312 00:20:52,079 --> 00:20:55,599 the time your child is eighteen, assuming that ten percent return. 313 00:20:55,799 --> 00:20:58,279 Speaker 8: So the question is how do I get this? 314 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:02,640 Speaker 7: Well, of course it is for forty seven why do 315 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:04,960 you think that might be data Dana? And it is 316 00:21:05,319 --> 00:21:09,480 the Trump accounts dot gov where you can sign up 317 00:21:09,519 --> 00:21:09,960 for all of this. 318 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 4: Okay, so that scene is report. Let me just say this, people, 319 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,960 are adding to it in different ways. SpaceX president Gwynne's 320 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,640 Shotwell said yesterday she and her husband are donating stock 321 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:26,160 in the newly public company SpaceX to Trump accounts for 322 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:30,720 more than two million children. So they're gonna put stock 323 00:21:30,759 --> 00:21:34,640 in that will benefit two million children. Their gift will 324 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:39,759 go to kids between the ages of eleven and seventeen 325 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:47,559 who live in lower income areas, with a focus on 326 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:52,440 where the couple lives, which is in Central Texas. I 327 00:21:52,519 --> 00:21:54,359 mentioned yesterday, I'm going to have to find out more 328 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:57,799 about this that there are people now who are saying, yeah, 329 00:21:57,839 --> 00:22:00,960 it's not but they wanted to be yond for kids 330 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,359 who were born after twenty twenty five, and so I 331 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:08,000 think there are some attempts to do that. Then you have, 332 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:14,839 and we covered this briefly yesterday, Bernie Thompson Mississippi, Mississippi, 333 00:22:16,319 --> 00:22:20,400 where the average median income of residents in his district 334 00:22:20,559 --> 00:22:25,680 is half that of many other places in America. And 335 00:22:25,759 --> 00:22:28,319 so what we're saying, and what I'm saying in so 336 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:33,000 many words, is that they live in an income challenged district. 337 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,559 Try to sound like a Democrat instead of saying, Poe 338 00:22:37,279 --> 00:22:44,720 income challenged district. And yet because of his extreme dislike 339 00:22:44,799 --> 00:22:47,400 of Trump, He's saying, oh, no, I'd pass on that. 340 00:22:48,559 --> 00:22:52,000 And how dumb is that you would pass on urging 341 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:56,039 children in one of the lowest the parents of children 342 00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,519 in one of the lowest income districts in the country 343 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:05,039 from using a program that could allow, if people put 344 00:23:05,079 --> 00:23:12,599 the maximum in it, their offspring, their children to have 345 00:23:12,839 --> 00:23:18,440 a quarter million dollars, maybe a lot more depending on 346 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,559 where the markets go, have a leg up on life 347 00:23:21,559 --> 00:23:26,039 when they turn eighteen years old. And can you imagine 348 00:23:26,079 --> 00:23:33,240 through compound, through compound interest, if that money were left there, 349 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,839 If that money were left there from the time they 350 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,160 were a kid, you're talking by the time they get 351 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:43,200 in their forties, most likely these kids would be straight 352 00:23:43,279 --> 00:23:51,720 up millionaires and be able to retire hopefully comfortably. And 353 00:23:51,799 --> 00:23:54,640 yet you have people, for political reasons saying no, no, no, 354 00:23:54,799 --> 00:23:57,799 you should pass on it. No, you shouldn't. This makes 355 00:23:57,839 --> 00:24:01,759 sense if people can do it now, of course, saving 356 00:24:01,799 --> 00:24:03,880 up that kind of money, we're finding, but more and 357 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,079 more people are coming on board, more companies are coming 358 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,079 on board. We have some long clips we didn't get 359 00:24:08,079 --> 00:24:10,880 to this week with Michael Dell and his wife talking 360 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,799 about it, So maybe this weekend we'll catch up maybe 361 00:24:13,799 --> 00:24:17,200 with Princess Diana, and she has talked about this before 362 00:24:17,759 --> 00:24:19,880 and so maybe we can spend a little bit more 363 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:23,640 time with it. Trump is in Turkey, NATO over there, 364 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,759 cut one. This is one of the more one of 365 00:24:26,799 --> 00:24:30,160 the most noticeable things that he said, among them. 366 00:24:30,039 --> 00:24:32,839 Speaker 3: Draw down to Europe likely and are you satisfied with 367 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:34,000 the progress that NATO alis? 368 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:34,680 Speaker 8: Well, we're gonna see. 369 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:38,680 Speaker 13: I was very disappointed with NATO, and frankly, if it 370 00:24:38,759 --> 00:24:42,079 weren't held in Turkey, where my friend happens to be 371 00:24:42,079 --> 00:24:48,079 a very strong leader, a very strong person, it's possible 372 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,799 that I wouldn't have attended. I felt I had to 373 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:53,799 attend because of the fact that you know, I know, 374 00:24:53,839 --> 00:24:56,279 he's gone all out. It was a big thing to 375 00:24:56,319 --> 00:24:58,839 have NANO come to Turkey or anyplace else. It's a 376 00:24:58,839 --> 00:25:03,119 big thing. But we weren't treated well because we did 377 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:07,119 something in Iran. We don't need anybody's help. I didn't 378 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:10,880 even want their help, but before I asked, they said 379 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:14,960 they wouldn't be there. And we've invested trillions of dollars 380 00:25:15,519 --> 00:25:22,680 and they know why. To protect European countries and others, Canada, etc. 381 00:25:23,079 --> 00:25:27,359 But to protect people countries from generally speaking, it used 382 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,279 to be the Soviet Union. Now it's Russia. 383 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:32,920 Speaker 8: And I say, that's. 384 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,160 Speaker 13: Fine, but you would think that they'd be very willing 385 00:25:36,279 --> 00:25:40,759 to do something to help us, and they really weren't. 386 00:25:40,759 --> 00:25:44,000 In the case of the United Kingdom, the Prime Minister, 387 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:47,119 I guess he's no longer there, maybe because of this. 388 00:25:47,279 --> 00:25:50,400 It was a very unpopular thing he did. He said, no, 389 00:25:50,519 --> 00:25:53,480 will help after the war is over. I said, I 390 00:25:53,519 --> 00:25:56,160 don't need that kind of help. We didn't need any 391 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,559 help at all. And in a way, I was testing people. 392 00:25:58,599 --> 00:26:00,559 I was testing to see whether or not they'd be there, 393 00:26:00,559 --> 00:26:03,559 because I've long said that we help them, but I'm 394 00:26:03,599 --> 00:26:05,680 not sure that they'd be there for us. And Italy 395 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:09,240 turned us down, and Germany turned us down, and France 396 00:26:09,319 --> 00:26:14,279 turned us down. And it's okay, but you know, why 397 00:26:14,319 --> 00:26:18,519 are we spending hundreds of billions of dollars and they're 398 00:26:18,519 --> 00:26:24,079 not there for us. We've always been there for them. 399 00:26:24,519 --> 00:26:26,680 Speaker 4: Now, by the way, there are stories right now, this 400 00:26:26,839 --> 00:26:30,119 draw down is real and it's happening. There was a 401 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:31,960 story I think it was Wall Street Journal. I'll have 402 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:33,440 to go back and look for it. I didn't print 403 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:38,880 it up about the European nations right now scrambling to 404 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:43,680 quote unquote fill in the gaps their security gaps, and 405 00:26:43,799 --> 00:26:47,720 some of those security gaps include the fact that they 406 00:26:47,759 --> 00:26:51,759 don't have equipment on their own that we would consider 407 00:26:51,799 --> 00:26:57,920 common for our military, like air like the fuel the 408 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:02,880 fueling system that we use in the air, those fueling aircraft, 409 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:04,720 you know where you don't have to stop, you can 410 00:27:04,759 --> 00:27:07,640 fuel while you're flying. NATO doesn't have a lot of that. 411 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:11,880 We supply that to the NATO alliance. And if we 412 00:27:12,079 --> 00:27:15,119 draw down military there, there's gonna be a lot of 413 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:17,880 gaps that all of a sudden they're gonna have to 414 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:21,359 figure out. And they're coming to that realization right now 415 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:24,920 because we are drawing down now we have more on 416 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:27,640 Israel Is a little bit. I saw a piece with 417 00:27:27,759 --> 00:27:31,759 nettan Yahoo this afternoon suggesting that we should not lift 418 00:27:31,839 --> 00:27:36,240 sanctions on Turkey, which is and send them f forty 419 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:40,960 one fighters which was a fifty one anyway, the latest 420 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:46,279 fighters to Turkey Netanya, who's not crazy about that idea. 421 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:50,440 But Donald Trump did say we are taking sanctions off 422 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:52,599 of Turkey, and he calls them a friend. That is 423 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:56,200 also causing some upset we have that but why spend 424 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:57,599 a minute with him saying it when I can tell 425 00:27:57,599 --> 00:28:01,359 you in twenty seconds. Also, he talked about Putin and 426 00:28:01,599 --> 00:28:05,079 Zelensky at this and that I'm looking at the clock. 427 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:09,160 We do have brief time for cut five. This is 428 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:13,240 what Trump said about the continuing war between Russia and Ukraine. 429 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,440 Speaker 13: I had a very good talk with President Putin, who, 430 00:28:16,519 --> 00:28:19,960 by the way, has a lot of respect for President Erdigan, 431 00:28:20,519 --> 00:28:23,319 a lot of respect for him. We had a long 432 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,279 talk yes day, less than a long time, and I 433 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:30,920 also spoke with President Zelensky right after that. I think 434 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,599 they both want to make a deal. It's too bad 435 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,279 it took so long, but I think there's going to 436 00:28:36,319 --> 00:28:39,160 be something's going to come out, and the President's also 437 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:42,119 helping us with that. But I think there's something. You know, 438 00:28:42,119 --> 00:28:45,359 I settled eight wars, and I think we're going to 439 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:49,039 be settling. And it doesn't seem likely now, but sometimes 440 00:28:49,079 --> 00:28:52,279 when with war, I see when it's least likely, that's 441 00:28:52,319 --> 00:28:54,960 when it happens. I had a very good talk with 442 00:28:55,039 --> 00:28:57,559 President Putin, had a very good talk with I would 443 00:28:57,519 --> 00:28:59,559 say as a combination, a lot of times I'd do 444 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:03,000 well with Putin and Zolensky would be a Brobbers or 445 00:29:03,119 --> 00:29:07,240 vice versa. Zelensky would be great and Putin would be 446 00:29:07,839 --> 00:29:10,720 They both want to get it settled down more than 447 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:12,640 That's all I do in my life is deals. 448 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 8: I know deals. 449 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:19,279 Speaker 4: He knows deals. By the way, Trump also said that 450 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,559 Toyota is moving one of their biggest auto plants out 451 00:29:22,599 --> 00:29:28,079 of Mexico into the United States because of what the 452 00:29:28,119 --> 00:29:33,039 tariffs and they worked. James Golden is thoroughly coming back 453 00:29:33,079 --> 00:29:34,799 with the clip of the day, Don't Go Away. 454 00:29:34,799 --> 00:29:39,960 Speaker 1: The Rush Hour with James Golden entertaining and informative. 455 00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,519 Speaker 2: On the Red Apple Podcast Network. 456 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:50,559 Speaker 1: The Rush Hour with James Golden entertaining and informative. 457 00:29:50,039 --> 00:29:52,119 Speaker 2: On the Red Apple Podcast Network. 458 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:54,039 Speaker 8: The clip of the. 459 00:29:54,279 --> 00:29:59,319 Speaker 5: Day you want to hear it is the clipbother day. 460 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 4: The clip of the day comes from I think one 461 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:15,000 of the most incredible, articulate, reasonable, rational, sane broadcasters in 462 00:30:15,119 --> 00:30:20,920 today's media. He hails from Kentucky. His name is Scott Jennings. 463 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:23,359 We circle back to where we started in the beginning 464 00:30:23,359 --> 00:30:26,920 of the program on Graham and Democrats are saying, we 465 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,240 need to do a better job vetting ground. We need 466 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:31,880 to do a better job vetting Why wasn't he Scott 467 00:30:32,119 --> 00:30:34,839 had the answer, Well, he had been vetted. 468 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:38,279 Speaker 15: All of the things that have been stated. It was 469 00:30:38,319 --> 00:30:42,079 all out in the public, and people like Rocanna, Bernie Sanders, 470 00:30:42,119 --> 00:30:46,480 Elizabeth Warren, Tim Walls, the Bulwark Podsave America, all these 471 00:30:46,519 --> 00:30:50,680 people came together to overlook it all, to explain it all, 472 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:51,960 to rationalize it all. 473 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 2: He was vetted. 474 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 15: People knew all these things, and a whole bunch of 475 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:58,519 Democrats in Maine showed up and voted for him anyway, 476 00:30:58,519 --> 00:31:01,119 and a bunch of donors from around the country send 477 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:05,440 him money anyway. I agree with Alyssa's question, what changed? 478 00:31:05,599 --> 00:31:08,319 Why are you bailing on grand Platner Now you already 479 00:31:08,359 --> 00:31:12,839 signed off on Nazi tattoo, a self described communist, somebody 480 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:16,559 who's had rape fantasies, somebody who has been on a 481 00:31:16,599 --> 00:31:21,680 social media platform known as a playground for predators. 482 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:22,839 Speaker 8: And on and on and on and on and on. 483 00:31:23,519 --> 00:31:26,920 Speaker 15: And the difference between this accuser and the previous one 484 00:31:27,039 --> 00:31:27,680 is simply this. 485 00:31:28,359 --> 00:31:29,039 Speaker 4: She's a liberal. 486 00:31:29,079 --> 00:31:33,240 Speaker 15: It's okay, I guess for Democrats that their candidates assault conservatives. 487 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,880 But he broke into someone's house and apparently, according to her, 488 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,640 raped her. And because her politics are correct, they could 489 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,319 now believe it. All of this whole thing is disgusting. 490 00:31:42,359 --> 00:31:44,079 But to say that they hadn't vetted him or that 491 00:31:44,119 --> 00:31:46,440 they didn't know about all this is totally false. They 492 00:31:46,519 --> 00:31:48,119 knew it and they signed up for it. And I 493 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,039 don't know why they're backing away from this scumbag today 494 00:31:51,039 --> 00:31:52,720 when they had already signed off on all that other 495 00:31:52,759 --> 00:31:53,559 crazy Babs. 496 00:31:53,359 --> 00:32:01,079 Speaker 4: Christine, that is Scott James.
