Uh, there was a woman there talking 33 00:01:40.959 --> 00:01:42.760 about I think it was her daughter who lives in 34 00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:46.000 Inland Empire, San Bernardino area, and that she's all freaked 35 00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:48.519 out because of all the earthquakes, because there's been a 36 00:01:48.519 --> 00:01:52.760 series of earthquakes. There third three quakes to hit the 37 00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:57.239 area on Monday, a three six at three five three. 38 00:01:59.079 --> 00:02:00.799 That that can be un nerving. 39 00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:06.920 If you feel them, right, Yeah, but when's the last 40 00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:09.360 time you felt well, maybe maybe I'm think. 41 00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:13.560 Be unnerved if I felt three, like one three point five. 42 00:02:13.639 --> 00:02:16.240 It's a novelty. It's making Deborah Mark freak out. 43 00:02:17.479 --> 00:02:18.520 If you felt another. 44 00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:22.599 In one day, I would be freaked out as well. 45 00:02:22.919 --> 00:02:25.199 But I had the exact same reaction you had. It's 46 00:02:25.240 --> 00:02:27.639 like what and then I thought about it, and I said, dude, 47 00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:29.199 that would freak me out. 48 00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:32.879 Do you remember the earthquake that was up off the coast, 49 00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:35.759 like up off the Mendocino coast and it was a 50 00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:38.000 couple you know, it was fifty miles or whatever it was. 51 00:02:38.479 --> 00:02:43.240 They are still seeing earthquakes along, I mean, yeah, sanm Bernardino. Yeah, 52 00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:45.400 you're gonna get a couple of earthquakes, but they're still 53 00:02:45.439 --> 00:02:49.080 seeing a lot off the coast, still feel them if 54 00:02:49.080 --> 00:02:49.800 you're in that air. 55 00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:50.159 Really. 56 00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:53.319 Oh yeah, that that's what would concern me. 57 00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:55.800 Three points something in San Bernardino. 58 00:02:55.919 --> 00:02:56.280 Not worried. 59 00:02:56.560 --> 00:02:58.080 I guess you get used to it at some point. 60 00:02:58.120 --> 00:02:59.039 Well, and the concern. 61 00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:04.879 The concern is that it's you know, either releasing or 62 00:03:04.919 --> 00:03:08.439 creating the tension along the sind Andrea's fault, which will 63 00:03:08.479 --> 00:03:11.520 then crack and we all die or whatever. 64 00:03:11.639 --> 00:03:14.560 I mean, something's going to happen, whether. 65 00:03:14.360 --> 00:03:17.879 It's asteroid that's going to come and kill us in 66 00:03:17.919 --> 00:03:19.479 a couple of years, or the earthquake. 67 00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:22.000 Maybe the earthquake and the asteroid come at the same time. 68 00:03:22.199 --> 00:03:24.960 Maybe maybe they know something that we don't know, something. 69 00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:28.120 A little too fur Yeah, well, right now you'll just 70 00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:30.400 have to deal with a little bit of rain. The 71 00:03:30.439 --> 00:03:34.199 first in a wave of storms is here. It arrived overnight, 72 00:03:34.280 --> 00:03:38.680 as you can see. Katla's Kirk Hawkins, who is not 73 00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:43.039 Henry but I'm sure is wonderful nonetheless says that the 74 00:03:43.080 --> 00:03:45.120 first part of the storm, it's just a blob of 75 00:03:45.159 --> 00:03:47.719 moisture ahead of the main storm. I like that, just 76 00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:51.199 a blob of moisture. I like that over atmospheric River. 77 00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:54.759 Thank you, Kirk Hawkins. I like that moisture blob. A 78 00:03:54.879 --> 00:03:57.280 half inch of rain or less. We're going to give 79 00:03:57.319 --> 00:04:02.840 the much stronger storm to morrow, heavy downpower, significant rainfall rates, 80 00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:04.960 and that's when we're gonna have the danger of debris flow. 81 00:04:05.639 --> 00:04:08.319 The concern, obviously is the debris flow, specifically in those 82 00:04:08.360 --> 00:04:11.960 burn scar areas above Altadena and Pacific Palisades, and it 83 00:04:12.039 --> 00:04:13.719 is going to be an issue and there will be 84 00:04:13.759 --> 00:04:16.839 some damage as a result of it. Almost any amount 85 00:04:16.839 --> 00:04:18.720 of rain is going to cause some amount of damage. 86 00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:23.040 But as people continued to try to piece together their 87 00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:27.199 lives after the fires, especially those who had damaged to 88 00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:31.000 their homes or lost their homes, the Home insurance plan 89 00:04:31.319 --> 00:04:33.920 run by the state that is technically the last resort 90 00:04:33.959 --> 00:04:36.600 the California Fare Plan is out of money. 91 00:04:36.680 --> 00:04:39.040 Didn't we all kind of know that the fare Plan 92 00:04:39.480 --> 00:04:42.759 was kind of the wizard that the emperor had no clothes? 93 00:04:43.199 --> 00:04:46.120 Didn't we see the Fair Plan as being fallible from 94 00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:50.040 go the fact that this would be able to withstand 95 00:04:50.439 --> 00:04:54.720 a disaster that was probably inevitable here in California. There 96 00:04:54.759 --> 00:04:57.639 was just no chance. They have run out of money 97 00:04:57.680 --> 00:05:00.519 to pay the wave of claims stemming from the are 98 00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:04.800 going to receive a bailout of one billion dollars. 99 00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:10.120 It's money that's paid by the insurance companies that feed 100 00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:13.680 into the California Fair Plan. But that also means that 101 00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:17.720 you are paying into the insurance companies so that they 102 00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:21.199 can cover the billion dollars shortfall on behalf of the 103 00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:23.639 Fair Plan. I don't know how to fix this, and 104 00:05:23.720 --> 00:05:26.199 I don't know if there are smart enough people out 105 00:05:26.199 --> 00:05:28.639 there to try to fix this. It's the cost insurance 106 00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:29.680 crisis that we're seeing. 107 00:05:29.920 --> 00:05:32.480 Yeah, it's the cost of doing business when you live 108 00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:37.920 in a place with wide sprawl and wild land and 109 00:05:38.360 --> 00:05:42.079 drought conditions, and that it's just the way it is. 110 00:05:45.920 --> 00:05:49.399 State Farm, the largest insurance company here in California, has 111 00:05:49.839 --> 00:05:53.920 gotten out of these wildfire areas. Last year, about seventy 112 00:05:53.959 --> 00:05:57.079 percent of the policies that they had in the zip code, 113 00:05:57.120 --> 00:06:01.319 that is, the Pacific Palisade's seventy percent, they didn't renew those, 114 00:06:01.959 --> 00:06:04.639 and that left residence obviously reliant on the Fair Plan. 115 00:06:04.759 --> 00:06:06.439 And these are not cheap homes. 116 00:06:06.560 --> 00:06:09.519 That's part of the issue is that both of these 117 00:06:09.560 --> 00:06:14.160 neighborhoods Altadena and Pacific Palisades Palisades obviously more so, these 118 00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:18.120 are expensive homes. So the cost of replacement, the cost 119 00:06:18.160 --> 00:06:22.319 of repair, all of that is very, very high. This 120 00:06:22.519 --> 00:06:25.399 billion dollar assessment that we're seeing is the largest in 121 00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:28.480 the history of the Fair Plan, which was created as 122 00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:31.160 far back as nineteen sixty eight, which I didn't realize it. 123 00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:31.560 Was that old. 124 00:06:31.639 --> 00:06:33.920 I bet you didn't realize. This fun fact about Abraham 125 00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:37.600 Lincoln I'm about to give to you waiting. It was 126 00:06:37.639 --> 00:06:43.480 April fourteenth, eighteen sixty five, that Lincoln signed legislation creating 127 00:06:44.639 --> 00:06:48.959 the US Secret Service. Did you know that? But it 128 00:06:49.000 --> 00:06:51.040 wasn't necessarily to protect. 129 00:06:52.120 --> 00:06:53.920 The president or dignitaria. 130 00:06:53.480 --> 00:06:56.120 Absolutely right. That came later. Do you know what else 131 00:06:56.319 --> 00:07:00.240 of note happened on April fourteenth, eighteen sixty five, Not 132 00:07:00.360 --> 00:07:03.079 just that link and sign the legislation creating the US 133 00:07:03.160 --> 00:07:06.519 Secret Service. But what else happened that day Gaysburg address. No, 134 00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:10.560 he was shot and killed the same day he created 135 00:07:10.839 --> 00:07:15.639 the Secret Service. That's right. So interesting that evening he 136 00:07:15.720 --> 00:07:20.279 was shot at Ford's theater. Now, to your point, the 137 00:07:20.319 --> 00:07:22.879 Secret Service would not have saved Lincoln if it was 138 00:07:22.959 --> 00:07:25.839 put into service that very moment that the pen went 139 00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:29.839 to paper. The original mission of the law enforcement agency 140 00:07:29.920 --> 00:07:34.240 was to combat widespread currency counterfeiting. It was not until 141 00:07:34.319 --> 00:07:37.920 nineteen oh one, until the killing of two other presidents, 142 00:07:38.360 --> 00:07:41.480 that the Secret Service was formally assigned to protect the 143 00:07:41.560 --> 00:07:45.519 commander in chief. Quite the pivot. You've got fake currency 144 00:07:45.560 --> 00:07:49.439 guys suddenly tasked with protecting the president, and now we've 145 00:07:49.439 --> 00:07:53.439 got women involved. My goodness, get it together, Secret Service. 146 00:07:53.720 --> 00:07:57.040 What's happening to this country? All right? 147 00:07:57.519 --> 00:08:01.839 A serial swater is getting it a pantload of prison time. 148 00:08:02.279 --> 00:08:05.800 This eighteen year old kids got some issues. I get 149 00:08:05.800 --> 00:08:07.879 it that this kid was doing it for money, But 150 00:08:08.079 --> 00:08:12.720 I mean, this type of volume of swatting calls, doesn't 151 00:08:12.759 --> 00:08:14.560 that indicate a larger issue with this person. 152 00:08:14.839 --> 00:08:16.839 That's what I was thinking, is that there's something else 153 00:08:16.920 --> 00:08:19.639 going on here. Yeah, White House is giving us another 154 00:08:19.680 --> 00:08:23.920 briefing Caroline Levitt the White House Press secretaries that they're 155 00:08:23.920 --> 00:08:26.480 talking about another American that has been released, in this 156 00:08:26.560 --> 00:08:30.959 case from Belarus. We don't know much about the details 157 00:08:31.040 --> 00:08:32.960 about who it is, as a matter of fact, because 158 00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:36.240 the Special Envoy for Hostage Affairs, Adam Bowler, had told 159 00:08:36.279 --> 00:08:38.320 reporters at the White House a few minutes ago that 160 00:08:38.440 --> 00:08:42.919 the American citizen who was released today by Belarus does 161 00:08:42.960 --> 00:08:45.960 not want to go public. There are also two non 162 00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:49.200 Americans that were part of this deal, including a journalist 163 00:08:49.279 --> 00:08:52.200 from Radio Free Europe. 164 00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:57.919 There was an article that I found. I think it 165 00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:00.960 was in something that was not main Oh, the cut 166 00:09:01.120 --> 00:09:05.559 is what it was. This is like a let's see, 167 00:09:05.559 --> 00:09:10.320 well their headings are style, self culture power to give 168 00:09:10.320 --> 00:09:12.960 you an idea. But the headline was this Trump staffers 169 00:09:12.960 --> 00:09:17.639 need a beauty blender. And they used this woman, the 170 00:09:17.639 --> 00:09:21.240 White House Press Press Secretary, as one of the people. 171 00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:27.360 Trump daughter in law was another one, Tulsi Gabbard, you know, 172 00:09:27.799 --> 00:09:31.159 Christy Noam is another one where they're going after the 173 00:09:31.159 --> 00:09:35.159 way these women are wearing makeup, And I thought to myself, wow, 174 00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:42.679 how how progressive, how progressive of you to go after 175 00:09:43.279 --> 00:09:47.879 females in positions of power and the makeup they're wearing. Wow, 176 00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:51.080 you time to look in the mirror and check yourself progressive. 177 00:09:52.440 --> 00:09:53.360 Well that's what happens. 178 00:09:53.639 --> 00:09:56.279 So a teenager in Lancaster has been sentenced to four 179 00:09:56.360 --> 00:09:59.039 years in prison. Went down yesterday. This was a kid 180 00:09:59.080 --> 00:10:01.519 who made more than three three hundred and seventy five 181 00:10:01.679 --> 00:10:06.360 hoax calls, threats to don't detonate bombs, conduct mass shootings, 182 00:10:06.519 --> 00:10:12.919 kill quoting here kill everyone he saw. He targeted high schools, colleges, universities, churches, 183 00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:15.279 government officials across the country. 184 00:10:15.360 --> 00:10:18.320 We'll call him Allan. He pleaded guilty to making interstate 185 00:10:18.360 --> 00:10:21.840 threats to injure others. That leads to massive law enforcement responses, 186 00:10:21.879 --> 00:10:25.120 renders officers on available to assist with other emergencies. According 187 00:10:25.159 --> 00:10:28.799 to the Department of Justice, hundreds and hundreds of calls 188 00:10:29.120 --> 00:10:32.519 from August of twenty twenty two to January of twenty four. 189 00:10:32.919 --> 00:10:34.919 But it's not just that he was making the calls. 190 00:10:35.720 --> 00:10:39.919 He was apparently a swater for hire who advertised his 191 00:10:40.240 --> 00:10:44.080 services of mass disruption January of twenty three. For example, 192 00:10:44.080 --> 00:10:45.960 on a social media post, he claimed that when he 193 00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:49.200 squatted someone, he usually got police to drag the victim 194 00:10:49.200 --> 00:10:51.200 and their families out of the house, cuff them, and 195 00:10:51.240 --> 00:10:55.399 search the house for dead bodies. In some instances, officers 196 00:10:55.519 --> 00:10:58.080 entered the targeted buildings with their weapons drawn and detained 197 00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:02.039 individuals who were in side. He was arrested on charges 198 00:11:02.120 --> 00:11:05.080 out of Florida connected to a threat that he made 199 00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:09.240 to a religious organization in Sandford, Florida. He threatened to 200 00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:11.159 commit a mass shooting at the site. Claimed to have 201 00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:15.080 elite have an illegally modified a AR fifteen o'clock seventeen, 202 00:11:15.440 --> 00:11:17.960 some pipe bombs, and some Molotov cocktail. 203 00:11:18.039 --> 00:11:21.320 Here a couple other anecdotes. In October twenty twenty two, 204 00:11:21.399 --> 00:11:24.879 we called the high school in Washington, threatened a mass shooting, 205 00:11:24.960 --> 00:11:28.759 claimed to have planted bombs throughout the school. In May 206 00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:32.360 of the following year, he called a historically black college 207 00:11:32.360 --> 00:11:35.080 and the University and University in North Florida. I claimed 208 00:11:35.120 --> 00:11:37.320 to have placed bombs in the walls and ceilings that 209 00:11:37.360 --> 00:11:41.080 would detonate in about an hour. A couple months later, 210 00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:43.879 he calls the police department in the US Attorney's Office 211 00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:47.720 in Texas. Falseley identified himself as a senior federal law 212 00:11:47.799 --> 00:11:51.639 enforcement officer provided the officer's home addressed to the dispatcher, 213 00:11:52.120 --> 00:11:54.840 claimed to have killed the officer's mother and threatened to 214 00:11:54.919 --> 00:11:59.320 kill any responding police officers. I mean, this was cinematic stuff. 215 00:12:01.559 --> 00:12:03.919 So what's going on with this kid? Well, not that 216 00:12:04.039 --> 00:12:05.840 he's a kid anymore. It's funny that you and I 217 00:12:05.919 --> 00:12:07.840 kind of came to the same conclusion. 218 00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:13.879 There's somebody who repeatedly does something almost anything, but something 219 00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:19.799 as attention grabbing and serious as this gets something out 220 00:12:19.799 --> 00:12:20.000 of it. 221 00:12:20.320 --> 00:12:23.960 Where are the parents? What's the story? That's my questions. 222 00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:29.120 There's that There's also the first example that I thought 223 00:12:29.120 --> 00:12:31.480 of when I saw this was remember the woman who 224 00:12:31.639 --> 00:12:36.960 was caught getting onto airplanes without a ticket? Yeah, that 225 00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:40.679 was that boiled down to a mental health issue. 226 00:12:40.720 --> 00:12:43.879 Sure, but where's her family and. 227 00:12:43.840 --> 00:12:46.440 Where's the family right to keep an eye on you? 228 00:12:46.559 --> 00:12:52.440 If if Aunt Susie shows some specific tendencies that you 229 00:12:52.600 --> 00:12:55.320 know are born out of mental health issues, you kind 230 00:12:55.320 --> 00:12:57.279 of have a responsibility to keep an eye on something. 231 00:12:57.360 --> 00:13:00.000 You know, if you crack up in the eleven o'clock out, 232 00:13:00.480 --> 00:13:02.639 I'm not going to just let you go crack up 233 00:13:02.720 --> 00:13:06.559 and be crazy cuckoo pants in the wild. I'm going 234 00:13:06.639 --> 00:13:10.559 to make sure I've got at least a leashanya or something, 235 00:13:11.159 --> 00:13:13.879 some kind of you know, I call your wife. There's 236 00:13:13.879 --> 00:13:16.799 some sort of net to protect the greater public from 237 00:13:16.799 --> 00:13:18.679 your cuckoo pants ness. 238 00:13:18.720 --> 00:13:19.919 My cuckoo pants ness. 239 00:13:20.399 --> 00:13:22.720 Just let you out in the wild after you've cracked, 240 00:13:23.159 --> 00:13:25.799 because I'm not I haven't real doubt I do have. 241 00:13:25.759 --> 00:13:28.559 A license to be cuckoo pants in public. What do 242 00:13:28.559 --> 00:13:30.919 you mean it's concealed cuckoo pants? 243 00:13:31.639 --> 00:13:34.039 This is what I'm talking about. You're talking crazy, You're 244 00:13:34.039 --> 00:13:36.639 talking gibberish. 245 00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:39.519 Why do you want to talk about the Westminster? 246 00:13:40.440 --> 00:13:42.799 Because I thought that you might have a reaction to it. 247 00:13:43.080 --> 00:13:44.919 I do, I do? You don't want to hear it? 248 00:13:45.039 --> 00:13:47.919 I this is what I this is what I'm asking for. 249 00:13:48.200 --> 00:13:51.159 I see dog show news. I don't care. I could, 250 00:13:51.440 --> 00:13:54.399 I do not care. I am not a dog person. 251 00:13:54.440 --> 00:13:57.279 I'm not a show dog person. I love Best in Show, 252 00:13:57.440 --> 00:14:00.320 great movie, one of my favorites. But I I know 253 00:14:00.399 --> 00:14:03.759 that you have this like visceral reaction to other dogs 254 00:14:03.759 --> 00:14:07.240 and dog breeds and when people place other dog breeds 255 00:14:07.279 --> 00:14:09.919 above your dog breed and what that does to you. 256 00:14:09.960 --> 00:14:12.399 And sometimes I just like to watch the cuckoo pants 257 00:14:12.480 --> 00:14:15.159 explode on the air. In about an hour. Justin Worsham, 258 00:14:15.240 --> 00:14:17.879 host of The Dad Podcast, will join us. We'll be 259 00:14:17.919 --> 00:14:20.600 talking about signs you're being too hard on your kids. 260 00:14:20.759 --> 00:14:23.679 Is that something I would imagine that that is something 261 00:14:23.720 --> 00:14:26.720 that's on your mind on the regular when you're raising kids. 262 00:14:26.799 --> 00:14:29.200 Am I being too lenient or too strict? And it's 263 00:14:29.240 --> 00:14:30.320 a constant battle? 264 00:14:31.200 --> 00:14:31.360 No? 265 00:14:31.639 --> 00:14:32.159 Oh? Really? 266 00:14:32.320 --> 00:14:34.519 Well for some people, yes, I would imagine it is. 267 00:14:34.559 --> 00:14:37.960 And that's as Justin will I assume tell you that 268 00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:41.000 probably is a sign that you're just fine. I mean 269 00:14:41.039 --> 00:14:43.799 that you're even concerned about something like that is an 270 00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:46.600 okay thing. But I think people don't care a lot. 271 00:14:46.720 --> 00:14:49.039 Some people just don't care. Yeah, they just do what 272 00:14:49.120 --> 00:14:52.360 their parents did, regardless of whether they think it's too. 273 00:14:52.320 --> 00:14:53.080 Much or too little. 274 00:14:53.200 --> 00:14:55.159 Yeah, that makes sense, And it. 275 00:14:55.080 --> 00:14:58.399 Doesn't stop because then you think, after you're done parenting 276 00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:02.200 at the legal age of eighteen or any time beyond that, 277 00:15:02.559 --> 00:15:06.360 you think, what did I do? Then that is resulting 278 00:15:06.360 --> 00:15:09.159 in what is happening now? It has nothing to do 279 00:15:09.200 --> 00:15:12.759 with you, right, But that's hard for you to swallow, right, Sorry, 280 00:15:13.039 --> 00:15:14.360 that's hard for me to swallow. 281 00:15:16.120 --> 00:15:19.240 It's it's just that it's funny that you think, and 282 00:15:19.279 --> 00:15:22.159 I it's sometimes my mom will say, so, where did 283 00:15:22.200 --> 00:15:24.720 you learn that? Why did you you know? How do 284 00:15:24.759 --> 00:15:27.600 you know that? Or whatever? It's like, not everything happened 285 00:15:28.000 --> 00:15:31.200 under your nose. I'm forty five. I'm going to be 286 00:15:31.200 --> 00:15:33.679 forty five years old. Like, there's a lot that is happening, 287 00:15:34.279 --> 00:15:36.440 Like the majority of that life in my formative years, 288 00:15:36.440 --> 00:15:38.159 you say, the majority of your life has been spent 289 00:15:38.240 --> 00:15:40.960 out right right right right. So it's just kind of funny. 290 00:15:40.960 --> 00:15:42.840 But I think you always think of your kids that way, 291 00:15:43.360 --> 00:15:46.960 you know, and then when it comes to punishment, Yeah, 292 00:15:47.000 --> 00:15:49.480 a lot of it is what you learned growing up. 293 00:15:49.559 --> 00:15:51.320 But what if, like your parents beat the hell out 294 00:15:51.320 --> 00:15:54.360 of you. Yeah, then you're kind of coming from from nowhere. 295 00:15:54.399 --> 00:15:55.919 You're like, what do I do now? I'm not going 296 00:15:56.000 --> 00:15:58.279 to hit my kid? Well, it's the next best thing. 297 00:15:59.399 --> 00:16:03.399 President Trump has upended three years of American policy towards Ukraine. 298 00:16:03.480 --> 00:16:06.399 He says that he and President Vladimir Putin of Russia 299 00:16:06.840 --> 00:16:10.200 have agreed to begin negotiations on an ending that war. 300 00:16:10.720 --> 00:16:15.679 Following a dramatic prisoner swap from yesterday, The president said 301 00:16:15.720 --> 00:16:17.679 in a social media post that he and Putin did 302 00:16:17.679 --> 00:16:21.000 have a lengthy phone call today during which they committed 303 00:16:21.000 --> 00:16:23.440 to work together very closely to bring the conflict to 304 00:16:23.440 --> 00:16:28.600 an end. According to CNN, Trump also spoke with Ukrainian 305 00:16:28.639 --> 00:16:34.759 President Vladimir Zelenski. The Ukrainian presidential adviser characterized their conversation 306 00:16:34.960 --> 00:16:39.679 as a good conversation. In DC, the Senate confirmed Tulsey 307 00:16:39.759 --> 00:16:43.559 Gabbert as President Trump's Director of National Intelligence. The vote 308 00:16:43.600 --> 00:16:47.080 came today after Republicans who had initially questioned her experience 309 00:16:47.159 --> 00:16:49.960 and her judgment did fall in line behind the nomination. 310 00:16:50.679 --> 00:16:53.399 And we'll talk more in Swamp Watch about what's going 311 00:16:53.440 --> 00:16:57.120 on with Doze. There was a subcommittee hearing earlier today 312 00:16:57.600 --> 00:17:00.480 talking about Doge. Elon wels Musk was not there, but 313 00:17:01.080 --> 00:17:04.079 the term d pic came in. 314 00:17:05.279 --> 00:17:07.759 Always elevates the discourses. 315 00:17:07.839 --> 00:17:08.960 Yes, very nice. 316 00:17:09.359 --> 00:17:14.599 Well, the Westminster Best in Show competition was held, and 317 00:17:14.720 --> 00:17:18.079 what a story of victory this is. For my best in. 318 00:17:18.160 --> 00:17:23.920 Show at the ninth annual Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, 319 00:17:24.640 --> 00:17:27.680 I choose the Giant Schnauzer. 320 00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:32.559 Giant Schnauzer, the Giant Schnauzer as a name. His name 321 00:17:32.599 --> 00:17:35.160 is Monty and Monty has come close in the last 322 00:17:35.200 --> 00:17:39.680 two years and he has finally taken the top prize. 323 00:17:40.039 --> 00:17:45.240 His handler, Katie, was almost too emotional to speak. This 324 00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:48.680 schnauzer bested six other finalists to become the first of 325 00:17:48.720 --> 00:17:52.839 his breed tapped as Westminster's Best in Show. What a 326 00:17:52.880 --> 00:17:59.240 feat for Monty the giant Schnauzer. You are apoplectic. You 327 00:17:59.319 --> 00:18:02.759 came in sour moves today and I know it's because 328 00:18:02.799 --> 00:18:03.160 of this. 329 00:18:03.440 --> 00:18:07.359 The sky terrier took the terrier group, a sky terrier 330 00:18:07.440 --> 00:18:08.079 named Archer. 331 00:18:08.160 --> 00:18:11.400 Guess who came in second place in the terrier group. 332 00:18:13.720 --> 00:18:14.079 I don't know. 333 00:18:14.160 --> 00:18:17.480 The Scottish terrier came in second place in the tear 334 00:18:17.640 --> 00:18:19.440 How in the world is that even possible? 335 00:18:19.839 --> 00:18:21.920 They should have their own group for one. 336 00:18:21.799 --> 00:18:25.000 Thing, the no leg group. We have no legs. We 337 00:18:25.119 --> 00:18:26.119 have no legs. 338 00:18:26.319 --> 00:18:28.880 Why do you think the Scottish terriers have no legs? 339 00:18:29.039 --> 00:18:31.480 Because they're so supposed to just be looked at and 340 00:18:31.519 --> 00:18:33.680 cuddled and not wanting for a living. 341 00:18:33.759 --> 00:18:34.359 What did they do? 342 00:18:34.799 --> 00:18:35.160 Nothing? 343 00:18:35.480 --> 00:18:36.759 Wrong?

Problemly, come on, PETERA 375 00:19:59.359 --> 00:20:01.680 does not belong to the Westminster Dog Show. 376 00:20:01.920 --> 00:20:04.240 Go to Sea World or whatever the hell you people do. 377 00:20:05.240 --> 00:20:07.720 What I think is great is that Monty now gets 378 00:20:07.759 --> 00:20:11.720 to retire. He's going out on top, best in show 379 00:20:11.799 --> 00:20:14.839 at Westminster, He goes out on top. But like, what 380 00:20:14.880 --> 00:20:17.359 does he do in retirement? Like, how do you know 381 00:20:17.400 --> 00:20:19.480 what he does in retirement? If he's best at show 382 00:20:19.519 --> 00:20:23.799 at Westminster, he only makes baby makes in show. 383 00:20:23.640 --> 00:20:27.039 Baby banks for the rest of his life. That is 384 00:20:27.079 --> 00:20:29.279 what I was just gonna make a really bad joke, 385 00:20:30.240 --> 00:20:32.640 but it was why are you stopping now? 386 00:20:32.880 --> 00:20:34.400 Nothing has ever stopped you before. 387 00:20:36.359 --> 00:20:38.519 No, I can't do it. I can't do it. But 388 00:20:41.599 --> 00:20:44.279 he has gotten his reward before. He has made it 389 00:20:44.319 --> 00:20:50.680 to heaven. Okay, do you want to link in fun fact? 390 00:20:50.960 --> 00:20:53.200 Yes, before we move on to their cat story to 391 00:20:53.200 --> 00:20:55.359 cleanse our palate from all the crazy dog stuff. 392 00:20:55.799 --> 00:21:01.759 Okay, where we last left you had created the secret Service. 393 00:21:02.400 --> 00:21:05.559 He had signed the legislation doing so on the very 394 00:21:06.039 --> 00:21:09.720 day that he was shot and killed at Ford's Theater. Now, 395 00:21:09.759 --> 00:21:13.200 as we mentioned Secret Service, as you so correctly said, 396 00:21:13.400 --> 00:21:21.599 was formed to combat currency corruption forged currency. So they 397 00:21:21.599 --> 00:21:24.079 were not going to come to Lincoln's protection had they 398 00:21:24.079 --> 00:21:26.400 even been in service that same day that they were 399 00:21:26.400 --> 00:21:29.559 signed into law. But they did come to his protection 400 00:21:29.839 --> 00:21:33.799 in death. In eighteen seventy six, a gang of Chicago 401 00:21:34.000 --> 00:21:39.119
