All Right, so we have the no Kings 10 00:00:32,759 --> 00:00:36,399 protesting that occurred mostly peaceful. I mean, yes, there had 11 00:00:36,439 --> 00:00:39,520 to be some pepper spray deployed, and yes there were 12 00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:44,399 some violent outbreaks, but it was mostly peaceful. You know, 13 00:00:44,439 --> 00:00:47,600 think about all of the piece that wasn't violent, right, 14 00:00:48,799 --> 00:00:50,560 just always got to look at the silver lining on 15 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:52,600 this stuff. So yeah, we had, you know, some some 16 00:00:52,719 --> 00:01:00,799 violence in Seattle, had a shooter in Utah. Los Angeles 17 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:04,040 also so violent Charlotte. They got pepper sprayed in Charlotte too. 18 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,519 So you got the no Kings thing going on, you know, 19 00:01:07,599 --> 00:01:10,920 with all of the imagery like the pinnatas. I think 20 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:15,760 that's how you say that pinata of Donald Trump and 21 00:01:15,799 --> 00:01:18,760 you know, having kids with bats just go to town 22 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:24,599 beaten the pinata. Yeah, that's totally healthy behavior to be 23 00:01:24,719 --> 00:01:28,560 instilling in your child, right to be attacking effigies and such. 24 00:01:30,239 --> 00:01:34,680 Oh that we also had here. This was Eric Swallwell. 25 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,560 He apparently spoke at one of these things. 26 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,719 Speaker 2: Donald Trump is America's hitler. 27 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, so it sounds well attended. Yeah, is America's hitler. 28 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:57,760 That's yeah, Donald Trump is America's hitler. Yeah. So this 29 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,840 is the the cool rhetoric, right, not at all hot, 30 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:07,799 not fiery. No such thing as stochastic terrorism, except, of course, 31 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:15,039 when a deranged man murders two people and attempts to 32 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:21,840 murder two others up in Minnesota. This maniac. I don't 33 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,879 even like giving these people's names, so I'm not going 34 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:26,360 to call him Maya his name. I'm just going to 35 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:31,240 call him the maniac. This guy, he's making a court 36 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:35,680 appearance I think today at some point. He shot two 37 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:42,680 Minnesota lawmakers and their spouses in what CBS News says 38 00:02:42,759 --> 00:02:48,360 is politically motivated shootings. Early Saturday morning. He was finally caught. 39 00:02:48,479 --> 00:02:52,039 There was this man hunt over the weekend. They caught him. 40 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,840 The fifty seven year old maniac was taken into custody 41 00:02:55,879 --> 00:02:58,560 after being located in the woods near his home in 42 00:02:58,719 --> 00:03:03,840 green Isle, Sibley County, on Sunday night, shortly before ten pm, 43 00:03:04,199 --> 00:03:07,439 the Ramsey County Sheriff's office posted a picture on social 44 00:03:07,479 --> 00:03:10,680 media of him being taken into custody, and the Sheriff's 45 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:16,719 office said, quote the face of evil. So he targeted 46 00:03:18,159 --> 00:03:23,039 Minnesota Representative Melissa Hortman, a Democrat, and her husband Mark, 47 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,800 who was a Raleigh native, went to NC State for 48 00:03:26,879 --> 00:03:33,280 a couple of years and then graduated from UNC. They 49 00:03:33,319 --> 00:03:37,319 were shot and killed in their Brooklyn Park home. And 50 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,639 then there was State Senator John Hoffman, also a Democrat, 51 00:03:40,719 --> 00:03:44,000 and his wife Yvette. They were then shot in their 52 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,759 home in Champlain. Actually, I think I have that reverse. 53 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:51,199 I think they were attacked first. Tim Walls told a governor. 54 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,719 Tim Walls told a news conference Sunday night that John 55 00:03:53,759 --> 00:03:56,639 Hoffman is out of the final surgery, is moving towards recovery, 56 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,199 as is Ivette Hoffman. So they both survived, which is 57 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:05,039 pretty amazing, because I think I have it here. She 58 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:10,479 told a friend of hers, who then posted it on 59 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:16,680 social media, that she had been hit like seven times. 60 00:04:16,959 --> 00:04:22,639 Seven rounds hit her and her husband was hit eight 61 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:27,360 times and they both survived, according to the criminal complaint. 62 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,519 This is according to the Star Tribune. The first nine 63 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,560 one one call was made by one of the children 64 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:39,240 of John and Ivette Hoffman after they were shot multiple times. 65 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,399 Champlain police responded to the Hoffman residence at two h 66 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:46,480 five am after receiving the nine to one one call, 67 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,360 so they were the first targets. Surveillance footage from the 68 00:04:50,399 --> 00:04:53,600 home showed a dark Ford SUV with police lights in 69 00:04:53,639 --> 00:04:56,800 the driveway. It showed the maniac approached the door in 70 00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,160 a mask, wearing a blue shirt, police vest and badge. 71 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,439 He was holding a gun as he approached the door. 72 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,639 After he shot John and Ivette Hoffman, he fled in 73 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:12,040 the suv. After Brooklyn Park Police learned the shooting victim 74 00:05:12,079 --> 00:05:17,040 in Champlain the Hoffman's and he was a state legislator, 75 00:05:17,639 --> 00:05:23,480 officers then proactively went to the Hortman residence. They arrived 76 00:05:23,519 --> 00:05:26,639 there at three point thirty five a m. And they 77 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:32,279 see the Ford Suv in the driveway. An officer watches 78 00:05:32,519 --> 00:05:37,000 as the maniac shot Mark Hortman through the front door. 79 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:42,519 After an exchange of gunfire, the maniac retreats through the 80 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:48,360 house and somehow escapes. Officers find Melissa and Mark Hortman, 81 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:53,600 both dead inside the home. When police searched the maniac's vehicle, 82 00:05:54,079 --> 00:05:58,959 they found three AK forty seven rifles, a nine milimeter handgun, 83 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,360 and a list of aims and addresses of public officials. 84 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:07,279 Further searches in the area located a ballistic vest, a 85 00:06:07,399 --> 00:06:10,560 disassembled nine millimeter firearm. I don't know why you would 86 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:14,120 disassemble that, Like, he's obviously running and he's like ditching 87 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,560 the vest. He's like trying to change his appearance. He 88 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,800 I don't know why you disassemble the firearm. Maybe so 89 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,000 nobody else will use it for bad purposes or something. 90 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,360 I don't want a kid to find it. I don't know. 91 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:29,759 They found the mask and the gold police badge. Four 92 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:34,199 of the firearms recovered by police were purchased by the shooter. 93 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,160 A person who was familiar with the maniac also spoke 94 00:06:38,199 --> 00:06:42,160 with investigators and positively identified him as the man on 95 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:49,439 the surveillance footage from the Hoffman's home in Champlain. US 96 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:55,439 Senator Yeah US Senator Amy Klobaschar shared a message early 97 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:59,759 Sunday evening from Ivette Hoffman that disclosed that John Hoffman 98 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,639 took nine bullet hits. I took eight. There is never 99 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,160 a place for this kind of political hate. Thank you 100 00:07:06,199 --> 00:07:09,120 for your friendship. Always, Minnesota's are at their very best 101 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:14,079 when we stand together. They do not have the death 102 00:07:14,079 --> 00:07:19,720 penalty in Minnesota. But for this guy, yeah, I think 103 00:07:19,759 --> 00:07:21,879 for this guy, you could make an exception. Maybe charge 104 00:07:21,959 --> 00:07:24,800 him under some federal law, you know, maybe go after 105 00:07:24,879 --> 00:07:33,319 him at the federal level. The BCA superintendent, I forget 106 00:07:33,319 --> 00:07:36,120 what that what that title is. It's someplace here and 107 00:07:37,639 --> 00:07:44,720 to do bc A. Well, he's the BCA superintendent. His 108 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:48,600 name is Drew Evans, and I think they do like 109 00:07:48,639 --> 00:07:52,079 the searches and stuff up in Minnesota. Here it is 110 00:07:52,079 --> 00:07:56,720 Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension. Okay, so he's in charge 111 00:07:56,759 --> 00:08:00,920 of the BCA, Drew Evans. He was asked at a 112 00:08:00,959 --> 00:08:04,879 news conference of authorities believe the shooter was getting any 113 00:08:04,959 --> 00:08:08,560 kind of of assistance, and he said the suspect had 114 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,600 been in contact with other people, but could not say 115 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:15,040 if they were actively providing him assistance. Asked why the 116 00:08:15,079 --> 00:08:19,079 BCA detained the shooter's wife and other relatives outside a 117 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:23,040 convenience store, Evan said they did so to one to 118 00:08:23,079 --> 00:08:26,720 try to understand what's going on that will help us 119 00:08:26,759 --> 00:08:31,240 complete the investigation. The shooter's wife and relatives cooperated with 120 00:08:31,279 --> 00:08:35,320 authorities in providing information, and they were released from custody, 121 00:08:35,399 --> 00:08:40,279 so it does not appear that he had anybody helping him, 122 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:45,480 you know, stay on the run over the week. So 123 00:08:45,519 --> 00:08:49,679 this happens on Saturday, early Saturday morning, so I'm seeing 124 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,000 you know, the news reports and you know, the coverage 125 00:08:53,639 --> 00:08:57,159 throughout Saturday, and then you know Sunday as well. They 126 00:08:57,159 --> 00:09:01,080 caught him Sunday night last night, so the whole weekend, 127 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:05,600 you know, once again, public service announcement in the wake 128 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,480 of any kind of this, any kind of a shooting 129 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:13,639 like this, just wait for more information to develop, okay, 130 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:18,360 because people raced to their social media accounts to try to, 131 00:09:19,039 --> 00:09:22,919 you know, pin this on a political party or you know, 132 00:09:23,039 --> 00:09:26,240 Donald Trump, or no, he's a he's a Trump hater, no, 133 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,039 he's a Trump lover, whatever, and and you don't you 134 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,039 don't know the answers to these questions in the immediate 135 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,679 aftermath of this event. All right, if you're listening to 136 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:36,240 this show, you know, I try to keep up with 137 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,399 all sorts of current events, and I know you do too, 138 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,000 and you've probably heard me say get your news from 139 00:09:41,159 --> 00:09:45,679 multiple sources. Why Well, because it's how you detect media bias, 140 00:09:45,759 --> 00:09:48,320 which is why I've been so impressed with ground News. 141 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:52,120 It's an app and it's a website and it combines 142 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,200 news from around the world in one place, so you 143 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,639 can compare coverage and verify information.

So we are now going to be entering 157 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:44,120 the cycle of stochastic terrorism the news cycle. You're going 158 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:50,480 to start hearing stochastic terrorism again. That's my prediction because 159 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:56,639 of the maniac up in Minnesota that assassinated the former 160 00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:00,879 Speaker of the House in the state legislature and her 161 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:06,559 husband and then also try to murder another sitting state lawmaker, 162 00:11:07,039 --> 00:11:13,120 both Democrats, and so now the left, can you use 163 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:17,480 this to say that the language of Republicans and Donald 164 00:11:17,519 --> 00:11:23,720 Trump specifically, that has inspired this murderer to do this 165 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:31,200 murder and therefore everybody needs to stop talking about whatever 166 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:35,879 it is that you're talking about. You're responsible, they're not responsible. Like, 167 00:11:35,919 --> 00:11:39,759 for example, when you say Donald Trump is America's Hitler, 168 00:11:39,799 --> 00:11:43,360 like Eric Swalwell did at that No King's Rally, When 169 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:48,759 you do that, that's that's not stochastic terrorism. Calling somebody hitler, 170 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:53,799 that's not You're not inspiring people to be afraid, right, 171 00:11:53,879 --> 00:11:56,559 I mean you're saying somebody is hitler, and we all 172 00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,559 know how that worked out. So I think it's pretty 173 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,840 clear what they are doing. I think it's pretty clear 174 00:12:03,519 --> 00:12:07,039 the anger and animus that they are fomenting. And if 175 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:12,799 you want to blame Donald Trump for the guy shooting 176 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,759 the state lawmakers in Minnesota, then for consistency sake, you 177 00:12:16,879 --> 00:12:20,240 have to then also attribute all of the violence on 178 00:12:20,279 --> 00:12:23,759 the left, and We've been documenting it for years. I've 179 00:12:23,799 --> 00:12:27,120 been pointing this out that the left has this violence fetish. 180 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:31,399 You guys, aren't You aren't addressing it, And into the 181 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:38,240 space enters Thomas Mills. Thomas Mills was a Democrat consultant guy. 182 00:12:38,519 --> 00:12:40,600 I've interviewed him. Heck, I have it. I had him 183 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,399 fill in one time for me on my radio show 184 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,480 in Ashville. It did not go well for him, but 185 00:12:45,639 --> 00:12:50,919 he you know, he did it. The callers just dragged 186 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:56,279 him for three straight hours. But he has been the 187 00:12:56,279 --> 00:13:03,000 purveyor of a website called Politics and c and he 188 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:07,000 makes the argument today that well, the headline says, both 189 00:13:07,039 --> 00:13:11,840 sides are not the same. All the violence is it's 190 00:13:11,879 --> 00:13:16,080 all on the right, and you guys are the big problem, 191 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,000 and we don't have this problem on the left. That's 192 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,879 what he's making this argument. And on the rare occasions 193 00:13:22,879 --> 00:13:25,559 when it happens, we condemn it. We automatically come right 194 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:29,399 down and condemn it. Right, I've not seen anybody celebrating 195 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,559 these murders. I've seen nothing like that from the right. 196 00:13:35,279 --> 00:13:38,399 I saw rushing in to say this guy was a 197 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:42,679 Governor Wall's appointment, so he's probably a Democrat, and that 198 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,519 was not true. He was an appointment, but it didn't 199 00:13:46,519 --> 00:13:52,559 mean anything. People try to make sense of these irrational 200 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:58,000 evil acts and they project into these stories their own biases, 201 00:13:58,039 --> 00:14:02,159 and Thomas is doing that here. I'll give you some 202 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,639 of the highlights. But there's also another story, and it 203 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:10,360 came out of Wake County one of their marches, the 204 00:14:11,279 --> 00:14:16,600 No Kings thing. There's a state representative named Julie von Haathen, 205 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:22,399 Democrat from Wait County, and she made a video of 206 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:26,159 the various signs that were at the march, and one 207 00:14:26,159 --> 00:14:29,000 of the signs that she highlighted, a woman is holding 208 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,480 this banner and it says, in these difficult times, more 209 00:14:32,559 --> 00:14:37,840 cuts may be necessary. And then there's a guillotine and 210 00:14:37,879 --> 00:14:43,000 detached off the sides of the banner are heads, one 211 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:47,480 Donald Trump and one not really sure. I think it 212 00:14:47,519 --> 00:14:50,360 may be Stephen Miller. It could also be Elon Musk. 213 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:54,399 Not sure because there's a and there's a swastika drawn 214 00:14:54,519 --> 00:14:59,360 on the forehead of the other head. And this is 215 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:04,200 what the Way Democrat thought was hilarious, took a picture 216 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:08,559 of and posted it. Outrage ensued, she deleted her accounts. 217 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,240 I think John actually has some thoughts on this, Hey, John, 218 00:15:12,279 --> 00:15:13,039 welcome to the show. 219 00:15:14,159 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 2: I was actually looking at that and some other miserable, 220 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:27,080 well not really miserable humorous failures from some of the 221 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:35,919 Democrats this weekend, thek Royan Cabari's Young Democrats tried to 222 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,120 drag someone because they got a thousand people out of 223 00:15:39,159 --> 00:15:44,759 almost eighty thousand registered Democrats and post three hundred thousand 224 00:15:45,519 --> 00:15:47,879 people in Rowan and Caberras, they got a thousand still 225 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:54,159 up for their rally here. And then the millennial head 226 00:15:54,559 --> 00:15:57,360 of the Democrat Party decides she was gonna wear a 227 00:15:57,799 --> 00:16:01,639 black tennis for the protest. 228 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:06,679 Speaker 3: What okay? 229 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 2: So no, but yeah, and then Julie decides to show 230 00:16:13,159 --> 00:16:17,440 us just how moderate and senris she is. 231 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:18,039 Speaker 4: By uh. 232 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:27,519 Speaker 2: Coming out, a coming out and the revolution for her 233 00:16:27,559 --> 00:16:30,480 idea of changing politics. 234 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 1: Right in these difficult times, more cuts may be necessary. 235 00:16:33,519 --> 00:16:35,559 So yeah, we're gonna have to start.

Centrally located between 250 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,680 Ashville and the entrance of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. 251 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:28,000 It's the perfect balance of seclusion and proximity to all 252 00:17:28,039 --> 00:17:32,759 the local attractions with hot tubs, fireplaces, air conditioning, smart TVs, 253 00:17:32,839 --> 00:17:36,480 Wi Fi, grills, outdoor tables, and your own private covered porch. 254 00:17:36,799 --> 00:17:40,839 Choose from thirteen cabins, six cottages, two villas, and a 255 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:44,960 great lodge with eleven king sized bedrooms.

I find it 261 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:08,759 insufferable to be lectured by people that find every excuse 262 00:18:09,599 --> 00:18:14,119 for political violence for their team committed by their team. 263 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:18,559 They will excuse it, they will accept it, they will 264 00:18:18,599 --> 00:18:22,200 defend it, they'll offer the I'm not censorshipman, done, but 265 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,480 and then they proceed to explain why it's kind of okay. 266 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,519 It's just that, you know, Trump had it coming. Trump 267 00:18:31,079 --> 00:18:33,519 led to his own assassination attempt like it's his fault. 268 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:39,799 And now because of the Minnesota shooting, we're being subjected 269 00:18:39,839 --> 00:18:44,680 to these lectures by these excuse making people, and it's 270 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:50,880 just it's unbearable. I'm just so fed up with it. 271 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:55,480 It all needs to be condemned, all of it. And 272 00:18:55,519 --> 00:18:58,960 you don't get to, you know, bash the pinatas of 273 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:04,039 Donald Trump and show the posters of guillotines while saying, 274 00:19:04,079 --> 00:19:08,359 how dare you chant hang Mike Pence? Right, that's an 275 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:14,039 inconsistent standard. I said from the very beginning on January Well, 276 00:19:14,039 --> 00:19:17,160 I guess it would have been this seventh January seventh, 277 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:21,759 the day after the riots, completely unacceptable. And I still 278 00:19:21,799 --> 00:19:24,839 don't know, and nobody does what that mob at the 279 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:29,799 Capitol might have done if they actually had gotten Mike Pence. 280 00:19:30,759 --> 00:19:32,920 I don't know what they would have done. That's the 281 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:38,000 thing about mobs, it's the thing about riots. Right, So 282 00:19:39,559 --> 00:19:41,920 I can be consistent on this. You shouldn't be doing 283 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:46,440 any of that. You don't do that. Let me go 284 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:50,039 over here and chat with Ray. Hello, Ray, Welcome to 285 00:19:50,079 --> 00:19:50,400 the show. 286 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 4: Hey, Hey, hey, I wanted to help the left and 287 00:19:55,200 --> 00:20:02,039 the Democrats out. They can pretty much more effectively ensure 288 00:20:02,079 --> 00:20:06,880 their political survival if they'll just adopt a new protest 289 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:12,200 attitude and instead of having a no King's protest, have 290 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:14,880 a no breaking the law protest. 291 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 1: Hmmm. That would that would well, I don't know if 292 00:20:18,039 --> 00:20:23,599 they broke many laws Saturday. Some some did. But you're 293 00:20:23,799 --> 00:20:28,480 you're ignoring all of the peaceful protesters, right, just because 294 00:20:28,799 --> 00:20:31,960 a couple of hundred here there around the country, you know, 295 00:20:32,079 --> 00:20:34,200 got into you know, some violence. 296 00:20:34,759 --> 00:20:35,319 Speaker 3: It was fire. 297 00:20:36,759 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 4: The peaceful protest did slip my mind? 298 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, boy, yeah, yeah, that's all right, It's okay. It's 299 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,359 a no. I appreciate its something that's a good piece 300 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,759 of advice. Just don't break any laws protesting. That's a 301 00:20:46,759 --> 00:20:52,519 good idea. This is I mentioned Thomas Mills. And by 302 00:20:52,559 --> 00:20:55,240 the way, let me just do a refresh real fast 303 00:20:55,279 --> 00:20:58,759 on this w R a L website. And no, they 304 00:20:58,799 --> 00:21:04,839 still haven't covered the the Julie von Hafen story. This 305 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:08,440 is WRAL. They still haven't gave They still haven't done 306 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:13,599 a single report on Representative Julie von Haythen who published 307 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:17,759 this video. She made a video she took pictures at 308 00:21:17,799 --> 00:21:23,799 the No King's protest in Raleigh and then stitched them together, 309 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,480 edited the pictures together into a video, and then she 310 00:21:27,559 --> 00:21:30,400 put it up on her Instagram page. And one of 311 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:37,559 the pictures shows this protester holding this banner, big picture 312 00:21:37,559 --> 00:21:41,079 of a guillotine. What appears to be like some I 313 00:21:41,079 --> 00:21:43,319 think there may I think those are like dead bodies 314 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:45,119 at the bottom of the guillotine. I can't really make 315 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:48,920 it out. It's pretty small and it says in these 316 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:53,559 difficult times, more cuts may be necessary. And then the 317 00:21:53,599 --> 00:21:56,960 banner is being like she's got a long bar that 318 00:21:57,039 --> 00:22:01,000 the banner is wrapped around and she's either end of 319 00:22:01,039 --> 00:22:09,240 the bar. Are these two like life size heads, one 320 00:22:09,319 --> 00:22:13,279 Donald Trump and one either Elon Musk or Stephen Miller 321 00:22:13,319 --> 00:22:19,359 I don't know. And the the Musk or Miller head 322 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:25,599 has a Nazi swastika drawn on its forehead and she 323 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:30,599 posts it up outrage incies, she deletes it, she deletes 324 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:36,440 her account on Twitter and h and she has apologized. 325 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:41,559 So this is now Thomas Mills at politics NC dot 326 00:22:41,599 --> 00:22:46,640 com saying that the shooter up in Minnesota was radicalized 327 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:51,039 by MAGA and info Wars, according to his roommate and 328 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:55,480 self described best friend, Yeah, there's there. I don't understand 329 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:59,039 all of the like, what's going on with that part 330 00:22:59,079 --> 00:23:01,160 of the story, edam In. So I don't understand that, 331 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,519 he says. The political violence in the country is out 332 00:23:05,559 --> 00:23:08,480 of control. I agree. We are more violent than we've 333 00:23:08,519 --> 00:23:12,960 been since the nineteen sixties. Only one party promotes violence, though, 334 00:23:13,039 --> 00:23:22,680 and it's not the Democrats. Really, Tom, really, you guys 335 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:28,799 just coordinated a day of protest where like, on the 336 00:23:28,839 --> 00:23:34,160 heels of all of the violent anti ice protesting, you 337 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,000 guys have been taking to the streets and engaging in 338 00:23:37,039 --> 00:23:42,559 this kind of action for years, he says, So this 339 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,640 is what he believes is true for years Republicans have 340 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:49,559 been trying to create a false narrative about Democrats supporting 341 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:54,119 or encouraging political violence. They blamed the George Floyd riots 342 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:57,640 on the party. They tried to tie Luigi Mangione to 343 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:00,839 the party. They have blamed the anti Simmy violence of 344 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:04,039 the attack on Jews in Colorado and the murder of 345 00:24:04,079 --> 00:24:10,480 a young Israeli embassy workers on leftists. Yes, yeah, correct, 346 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,559 you are that is correct because that is what he 347 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:17,440 was like. He is in denial or he's trying to 348 00:24:17,519 --> 00:24:22,200 gaslight us that there is not this leftist Islamist coalition, 349 00:24:22,759 --> 00:24:26,000 this ally ship.

Russ sends a message the 368 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:34,960 standard excuse me. The standard seems pretty consistent for their side. 369 00:25:35,519 --> 00:25:39,119 They are the ultimate good. Anyone opposing is the ultimate evil. 370 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:42,319 Their go anything goes for them, right. This is the 371 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:50,079 permission structure that they have fostered. And Thomas Mills is 372 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:53,240 sort of a perfect example of the wilful blindness. This 373 00:25:53,519 --> 00:25:56,640 is that's not happy way, We don't do that. Stochastic 374 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:01,519 terrorism only occurs among Republicans. They even came up with 375 00:26:01,519 --> 00:26:05,319 the term to apply it to Republicans. And what's most 376 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,720 insulting and that Tom does not mention in his list 377 00:26:08,759 --> 00:26:12,519 of examples about oh they tried to smear the Democrats. 378 00:26:12,519 --> 00:26:17,839 They're creating this false narrative. None of it's true, he says. 379 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:21,440 The riots in twenty twenty were a national reaction of 380 00:26:21,599 --> 00:26:24,319 years of young, unarmed black men dying at the hands 381 00:26:24,319 --> 00:26:28,680 of police or vigilantes, not calls to action by Democratic leaders. 382 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:33,519 No Democrats ever encouraged Luigi Mangioni by urging violence against 383 00:26:33,599 --> 00:26:40,319 health insurance executives. Do you remember after that murder? Did 384 00:26:40,319 --> 00:26:43,279 you ever go and read the comments section see social 385 00:26:43,319 --> 00:26:48,759 media posts? The left celebrated it. That's the permission structure. 386 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:56,400 I've got audio from Senator Chris Murphy who now is 387 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:58,799 saying that this is all Trump's fault, the murder up 388 00:26:58,799 --> 00:27:02,720 in Minnesota, this is all US fault, Trump's fault. But 389 00:27:02,799 --> 00:27:07,960 after Mangione murdered the healthcare CEO, he had a different tone, 390 00:27:08,039 --> 00:27:11,960 a bit of a different tone. He says. Republicans are 391 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,559 urged by their leader to see Democrats as enemies and evil. 392 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:19,880 Do you remember Joe Biden's red speech that he gave 393 00:27:20,079 --> 00:27:25,119 in Philadelphia? Remember that I do? Or how about this 394 00:27:26,079 --> 00:27:32,279 June fourteenth, we just had the eight year anniversary of 395 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:41,119 the Congressional baseball shooting. June fourteenth, twenty seventeen, James Hodgkinson, 396 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:45,519 a Bernie bro sixty six year old guy, shot four people, 397 00:27:45,559 --> 00:27:49,400 including then US House Majority whip Steve Scalise, try to 398 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:55,079 assassinate a very large number of Republican lawmakers on a 399 00:27:55,079 --> 00:27:59,599 softball field. That was June fourteenth. Tom doesn't mention that. 400 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:08,160 Tom doesn't mention Donald Trump being nearly assassinated twice, doesn't 401 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,200 mention any of those see, because that doesn't fit with 402 00:28:11,279 --> 00:28:15,119 this narrative that he's pushing. That narrative being it's only 403 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:19,039 coming from one side. That's literally his argument the headline, 404 00:28:19,039 --> 00:28:23,039 both sides are not the same. Political violence is coming 405 00:28:23,039 --> 00:28:25,839 to a head in the country, says, but on only 406 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:30,119 one side is it directed at power? Again, like the 407 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:36,920 gaslighting here is amazing. You had Trump survived two assassination attempts, 408 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:40,240 and where to believe that the left is not taking 409 00:28:40,279 --> 00:28:44,599 its shot at power? Really, the violence from riots and 410 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:49,119 protests is reactionary, sporadic, and mostly random. Oh that makes 411 00:28:49,119 --> 00:28:52,279 it okay? Then sure? You got leftists out in the street, 412 00:28:52,640 --> 00:29:00,200 pelting ice agents with bricks, setting buildings on fire. Yeah, 413 00:29:00,359 --> 00:29:03,920 it's mostly random. It's not spurred by calls for action 414 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:07,920 from a major political party. The hell it isn't. You 415 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:15,880 got Democrat lawmakers getting arrested while trying to block ICE operations. 416 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:22,359 You're telling me that's not a permission structure. All the 417 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:28,400 violence on college campuses run by and perpetuated by people 418 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:32,599 on the left, these weren't conservatives. This wasn't MAGA setting 419 00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:37,359 up their tentifata. The perpetrators of violence from the left 420 00:29:37,359 --> 00:29:40,920 are routinely and vociferously condemned by Democrat leaders and the 421 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:44,799 Democrat right that Julie von Haefen has had zero mensions. 422 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:50,480 I've seen nothing from Democrats in this state, state party chair, 423 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,440 any of her colleagues. Nobody is saying anything. WRAL isn't 424 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,960 even covering the story. There was nothing in the news. 425 00:29:56,960 --> 00:30:03,759 And observer tell me that it's raining while I see 426 00:30:03,799 --> 00:30:06,599 you whizzing on my boots. Let me get Bob on 427 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,119 real quick here.

And you know, 440 00:30:49,319 --> 00:30:52,519 a matter of fact, I believe the Charlotte Police Department 441 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,160 have a law where if I don't lock my doors, 442 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:56,039 I can get a ticket. 443 00:30:57,079 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: Well, you can get in a lot of trouble if 444 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:01,319 you get a gun stole out of your car that 445 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,680 was unlocked. Yeah, so, Bob, I gotta run, I gotta run. 446 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:06,759 I gotta run up against the news. I appreciate the call. 447 00:31:06,799 --> 00:31:10,200 It's a great point. All right.
