This you may have heard about 159 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,560 prison this controversy has social justice warriors claiming 160 00:08:43,560 --> 00:08:48,720 this classic holiday carol is racist. Yeah, jingle bells, 161 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:54,330 jingle bells, bangle all the way. So here's the story, a 162 00:08:54,330 --> 00:08:57,930 theater history professor telling boston.com that Jingle 163 00:08:57,930 --> 00:09:01,140 Bells was originally performed to make fun of African 164 00:09:01,140 --> 00:09:04,320 Americans. That professor saying, quote, the racial 165 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,710 history of the songs has remained hidden behind its local 166 00:09:07,710 --> 00:09:10,830 and seasonal affection. blackface and racist origins 167 00:09:10,830 --> 00:09:14,130 have been suddenly and systematically removed from his 168 00:09:14,130 --> 00:09:14,790 history. 169 00:09:15,060 --> 00:09:16,200 Is this true? 170 00:09:17,100 --> 00:09:21,270 Not that I know of, but it's a great story. I mean, I think 171 00:09:21,270 --> 00:09:28,680 it's a hoax. We'll look into it we'll look into because you have 172 00:09:28,680 --> 00:09:31,080 to be careful because if this story is breaking now somebody 173 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,560 could have rigged you know short term rigged it is a problem with 174 00:09:34,560 --> 00:09:38,760 the Wikipedia obviously. Somebody could have rigged the 175 00:09:39,210 --> 00:09:43,020 Yeah, well, well, right. Well, this is yeah, when I'm when I'm 176 00:09:43,020 --> 00:09:45,060 doing Jingle bells, jingle bells, 177 00:09:45,930 --> 00:09:48,330 to do with anything that has anything to do with slavery or 178 00:09:48,330 --> 00:09:49,350 blacks. Boston 179 00:09:49,350 --> 00:09:52,380 University theater professor claims the Christmas Carol has a 180 00:09:52,380 --> 00:09:55,830 problematic history because it was originally performed to make 181 00:09:55,830 --> 00:10:02,910 fun of African Americans. In what way Let me see. The legacy 182 00:10:02,910 --> 00:10:06,480 of Jingle Bells is one where its blackface and racist origins 183 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,850 have been suddenly and systematically removed from its 184 00:10:08,850 --> 00:10:13,470 history says Kiana Hamel, Boston University, Boston University 185 00:10:13,470 --> 00:10:17,310 Theatre historian as she wrote a whole research paper about it 186 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:25,380 although one horse open sleigh, let me see. I don't know, man. 187 00:10:25,530 --> 00:10:30,090 It's it's a stretch. I think just a tad bit of a stretch 188 00:10:31,140 --> 00:10:35,730 is first performed on Washington Street in Boston in 1857. Yeah, 189 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,720 some area choirs adopted as part of their repertoire in his 1860s 190 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,960 and 70s was featured in a variety of popular song and 191 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,020 college anthologies in the 1880s. It was first recorded in 192 00:10:46,020 --> 00:10:55,710 1889 on an Edison cylinder. All right. Yes, as it's an unsettled 193 00:10:55,710 --> 00:10:59,460 question, whether and when PeerPoint originally composed 194 00:10:59,460 --> 00:11:03,300 the song that would become known as Jingle Bells apply in 19. Is 195 00:11:03,300 --> 00:11:07,470 it like against some guy in high school or something? It's no, 196 00:11:07,470 --> 00:11:09,420 there's no way. It's bull crap. 197 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:14,400 Well, she got her name in the paper. No Good for her. But my 198 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:19,380 favorite is this transition or transformation of history. 199 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,490 There's a new book out just in time for Christmas. 200 00:11:23,940 --> 00:11:28,380 This is new. Daniel first to you what inspired Santas husband? 201 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:34,530 Well, it was sort of inspired by the annual tuition we have in 202 00:11:34,530 --> 00:11:35,310 this country of 203 00:11:35,550 --> 00:11:38,490 Santas husband, stay tuned, you'll like it. 204 00:11:38,610 --> 00:11:40,290 Like it. You're beating me up on these? 205 00:11:42,390 --> 00:11:44,340 Well, I got lots of time on my hands, 206 00:11:44,460 --> 00:11:48,120 inspired by the annual tradition we have in this country of 207 00:11:48,150 --> 00:11:51,450 pretending that there's a giant war on Christmas. And that 208 00:11:51,780 --> 00:11:55,950 traditional Christmas is under attack. So among other things, 209 00:11:56,250 --> 00:11:59,880 we were reading all of the news about the Mall of America hiring 210 00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:04,680 a black Santa Claus last year, and me and my now wife made a 211 00:12:04,680 --> 00:12:07,590 joke on Twitter, that's if we ever had a child, they would 212 00:12:07,590 --> 00:12:10,350 only know about black Santa Claus. And if they saw white 213 00:12:10,350 --> 00:12:12,480 Santa Claus at the mall, we would just explain well, that's 214 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:16,890 his husband. And then Ashley and I knew each other from the 215 00:12:16,890 --> 00:12:19,320 internet and from her illustration already and she 216 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,620 jumped into my twitter mentions and said boom, new book. 217 00:12:22,890 --> 00:12:26,730 Boom caught one. Yeah, and it's out now available everywhere, 218 00:12:26,730 --> 00:12:29,910 actually. So let me read a couple of pages here. It says 219 00:12:29,910 --> 00:12:32,700 like any married couple, they have their disagreements but 220 00:12:32,700 --> 00:12:36,870 they always manage to kiss and make up usually over a plate of 221 00:12:36,870 --> 00:12:37,620 milk and cookies. 222 00:12:40,260 --> 00:12:46,170 So we have the gay Santa Claus. Santa is black. He's gay and his 223 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:47,850 any as a husband, a white husband, 224 00:12:48,180 --> 00:12:52,050 the white guy. Yeah, yeah, it's kind of massage dresses much the 225 00:12:52,050 --> 00:12:52,530 same. 226 00:12:52,560 --> 00:12:57,090 Mrs. Claus has been wiped from history all of a sudden. It's an 227 00:12:57,090 --> 00:12:57,840 outrageous. 228 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,870 It is an outrageous surprise people put up with this. 229 00:13:00,990 --> 00:13:09,090 Everyone thinks it's great. It's great. Halloween. I know. I 230 00:13:09,090 --> 00:13:13,740 know. It's bad. Borderline Tip of the day there but 231 00:13:13,740 --> 00:13:17,340 unfortunately because you just you just took my clips and made 232 00:13:17,340 --> 00:13:20,520 them look like junk. Well, I get a borderline I'm taking the 233 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:29,520 borderline Yes, sorry. And they made a big they made a big deal 234 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:33,240 about these. These fake fingerlings. I didn't even know 235 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,940 every year they have supposedly they had to have to some 236 00:13:35,940 --> 00:13:40,800 dramatic gift that is hard to get. And what is it? What is it 237 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:44,790 this year? This year is the fingerling fingerling it's a 238 00:13:44,790 --> 00:13:48,000 little bitty monkey that you put on your finger and its head goes 239 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:58,140 back and forth and it goes ah, I'm sorry for your report. Well 240 00:13:58,140 --> 00:13:58,860 fingerling 241 00:14:02,730 --> 00:14:06,840 you're waiting for a clip I thought you were gonna read. I'm 242 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,420 sitting here like, well, could you hurry up and read the report 243 00:14:09,420 --> 00:14:09,840 already? I'm 244 00:14:09,839 --> 00:14:12,329 sorry. You have kids. You know that every year. There's a 245 00:14:12,329 --> 00:14:15,599 popular hard to find holiday toy that you have to stand in line 246 00:14:15,599 --> 00:14:16,469 for Cabbage Patch 247 00:14:16,470 --> 00:14:20,790 Kids and transformers. Try to think about your answers this 248 00:14:20,790 --> 00:14:24,090 year. The it toy has been sold out for weeks which has opened 249 00:14:24,090 --> 00:14:26,550 the door for fraud we see that every year consumer investigator 250 00:14:26,550 --> 00:14:29,190 Chris Kamara joins us now and tell us about these. What do you 251 00:14:29,190 --> 00:14:29,520 call 252 00:14:29,819 --> 00:14:33,449 fingerling finger lifts fake fingerlings. I think we've hit a 253 00:14:33,449 --> 00:14:36,749 sore spot here, haven't we? All right, we were tipped knock off 254 00:14:36,749 --> 00:14:39,449 by one of our eagle eyed response producers. We did a 255 00:14:39,449 --> 00:14:42,779 little digging around and found the forgery is rampant could 256 00:14:42,779 --> 00:14:49,679 also put your child's safety at risk. We wonder if our response 257 00:14:49,679 --> 00:14:54,119 producers bought fingerlings on walmart.com and this is what she 258 00:14:54,119 --> 00:14:56,909 got. It looks like the real thing and the packaging is 259 00:14:56,909 --> 00:15:00,449 nearly identical. It's not until you compare it to off authentic 260 00:15:00,449 --> 00:15:03,689 fingerlings that you see the major difference. The name 261 00:15:03,689 --> 00:15:06,869 fingerlings is missing on the packaging. A keen eye might 262 00:15:06,869 --> 00:15:10,229 catch other clues that this fingerling is bogus. Check out 263 00:15:10,229 --> 00:15:15,239 how batteries is misspelled. And NBC viewer in New Jersey had a 264 00:15:15,239 --> 00:15:19,589 similar experience. She bought two fingerlings on walmart.com. 265 00:15:19,589 --> 00:15:19,649 The 266 00:15:19,650 --> 00:15:23,460 second one that I received came in not as a fingerling. But as a 267 00:15:23,490 --> 00:15:27,750 happy monkey. Not the color not looking like it not the brand, 268 00:15:27,780 --> 00:15:28,650 nothing like that. 269 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,560 As it turns out, the maker of fingerlings is suing more than 270 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:36,870 150 companies for knocking off its blockbuster toy. Consumers 271 00:15:36,870 --> 00:15:39,240 who have been duped into buying a fake need to know there are 272 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:43,500 potential safety concerns for kids. Counterfeit toys bypass 273 00:15:43,500 --> 00:15:45,150 federal safety inspections, 274 00:15:45,210 --> 00:15:48,660 the two concerns with counterfeit products are that 275 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:52,290 one they could pose a choking hazard particularly if they're 276 00:15:52,290 --> 00:15:56,640 small parts. The second concern would be that they're unhealthy 277 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:58,470 toxics that are in the product. 278 00:15:59,910 --> 00:16:02,370 We haven't heard about any safety issues with these 279 00:16:02,370 --> 00:16:05,670 knockoffs. So we wondered, How did Walmart end up with the 280 00:16:05,670 --> 00:16:09,420 fakes, the company confirmed it wasn't selling them. Instead, 281 00:16:09,420 --> 00:16:13,530 they were sold by a third party on its website. After the 282 00:16:13,530 --> 00:16:16,620 response team reached out to Walmart, it booted those sellers 283 00:16:16,620 --> 00:16:19,830 from its site, saying it has zero tolerance for people 284 00:16:19,830 --> 00:16:21,030 selling fake goods. 285 00:16:21,330 --> 00:16:22,980 It also issued a full refund. 286 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:31,410 Now, this seems like a story planted by Amazon. Yeah, likely. 287 00:16:32,670 --> 00:16:36,360 But Amazon is like a real bad actor when it comes to selling 288 00:16:36,390 --> 00:16:41,340 dubious things from other third parties. Yeah, yeah. And I mean, 289 00:16:41,340 --> 00:16:43,890 I've seen a bunch of things go through that just like guard. I 290 00:16:43,890 --> 00:16:46,800 mean, they will take it back with pretty much no questions 291 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:50,160 asked, alright, you know, the real problem. But Walmart, you 292 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:54,000 know, is new to this. And I think they just got burned. 293 00:16:54,270 --> 00:16:57,750 You know, speaking of Amazon, I had I needed a printer, and I 294 00:16:57,780 --> 00:17:00,360 got rid of everything. I didn't. I never need a printer anymore. 295 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:04,110 Now I needed to print all of a sudden, why I needed a printer 296 00:17:04,110 --> 00:17:07,650 to print out some documents of which I'm not going to go into 297 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:08,640 I'd needed a printer. 298 00:17:09,149 --> 00:17:13,619 You mean, you've been getting by without a printer? Yeah. Yeah. 299 00:17:13,679 --> 00:17:16,649 If I need to print something, I can actually email it to the 300 00:17:16,649 --> 00:17:19,859 front desk here and they print it out. Because they had printed 301 00:17:19,859 --> 00:17:23,759 this building had computers and printers. But people steal it. 302 00:17:23,879 --> 00:17:27,359 So the printer was gone. People steal HDMI cables. 303 00:17:27,869 --> 00:17:30,779 People are a holes. They steal Oh, yeah. 304 00:17:30,899 --> 00:17:34,439 So I needed to I needed a printer. And I see on and I just 305 00:17:34,439 --> 00:17:36,689 needed a simple printer. Just print out some stuff. I see an 306 00:17:36,689 --> 00:17:42,059 Amazon printer, a Canon 39 bucks. Like perfect, because of 307 00:17:42,059 --> 00:17:44,069 course they're only selling the ink. I presume that's why it's 308 00:17:44,069 --> 00:17:47,459 so cheap. And I needed a quick and I said no if you order 309 00:17:47,459 --> 00:17:52,379 today, that was last Friday. It'll be there tomorrow. 310 00:17:52,379 --> 00:17:54,779 Saturday. I'm like, okay, click Go. And it didn't arrive 311 00:17:54,779 --> 00:17:57,959 Saturday. So I say Damn it. Amazon. I wrote the New I did a 312 00:17:57,959 --> 00:18:01,889 feedback. And they took off 20 bucks. I got the printer for 313 00:18:01,889 --> 00:18:02,849 $19. 314 00:18:04,380 --> 00:18:06,420 I'll bet you that's a gem of a printer 315 00:18:06,450 --> 00:18:08,880 works fine. It's a cloud printer. It's great. 316 00:18:09,570 --> 00:18:10,680 It's a cloud printer. 317 00:18:10,710 --> 00:18:12,210 Yeah, Google Cloud Print. 318 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:14,100 Oh, god. 319 00:18:14,670 --> 00:18:18,360 Yeah, that's what I said, Well, trying to set it up. Which I 320 00:18:18,360 --> 00:18:24,660 have not yet succeeded. One week later. That's bad. But that is 321 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:27,870 such a thing to be honest. But Amazon will send you will give 322 00:18:27,870 --> 00:18:30,030 you a refund if they if they mess it up. If you're a prime 323 00:18:30,030 --> 00:18:31,110 member, they will they will 324 00:18:31,110 --> 00:18:33,630 say no, yeah, if you're a prime member, you can. You could 325 00:18:33,630 --> 00:18:36,840 probably if you've played your cards right, but a lot of stuff 326 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:41,910 get your entire Prime membership refunded. But these kinds of 327 00:18:41,910 --> 00:18:45,540 complaints, and this is the time to do it. Because there's no way 328 00:18:45,540 --> 00:18:49,170 they're going to make things bribe on time. It's not 329 00:18:49,170 --> 00:18:55,890 possible. Anyway. So that's I think our Christmas report. I 330 00:18:55,890 --> 00:18:59,070 was more Merry Christmas, everybody. You were kind of 331 00:18:59,070 --> 00:19:03,330 about the scams and whatever. Screw Enos screw screw ball. 332 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:07,950 Justice Warrior crap. And with that, yeah, yeah. Merry 333 00:19:07,950 --> 00:19:10,380 Christmas, everybody. We won't be doing a show. We should 334 00:19:10,380 --> 00:19:11,220 mention this. Yes, 335 00:19:11,250 --> 00:19:15,300 we are on Christmas. We're doing a show. Yeah, it's a net. It's 336 00:19:15,300 --> 00:19:19,380 fresh. It's a new show. It's fresh, fresh, fresh, new content 337 00:19:19,410 --> 00:19:21,480 from the no agenda from the people who bring you the no 338 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:26,400 agenda show. Yeah, it's an interview I did with the Steve 339 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:33,690 botanic. Yeah. And I think you'll like it. You know, I 340 00:19:33,690 --> 00:19:36,330 never hear this guy just talk without being interrupted. 341 00:19:37,050 --> 00:19:39,570 So you're here you're hearing him on Alex Jones, where they 342 00:19:39,570 --> 00:19:41,970 got to interrupt him to sell pill. Yeah, exactly. It's pretty 343 00:19:41,970 --> 00:19:45,390 much a wiki. I think I feel the same way about all interviews 344 00:19:45,390 --> 00:19:47,730 where you see a good interview. We've talked about this on our 345 00:19:47,790 --> 00:19:53,340 Yes, on our episodes, yes. Where people are getting going. So you 346 00:19:53,340 --> 00:19:57,360 know, Hey, that reminds me of something. And then they get cut 347 00:19:57,360 --> 00:19:59,160 off because they gotta go to a break and then they kind of 348 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:00,930 forget about what's hurt. It loses the 349 00:20:00,990 --> 00:20:04,170 it loses momentum loses all the most momentum and what I what I 350 00:20:04,170 --> 00:20:08,160 found? What I did during this interview, is it just kind of 351 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,320 started and we just, you know, I didn't I got him to talk and he 352 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:13,650 loves talking. He loves talking. He seems to be a chatterbox. 353 00:20:13,650 --> 00:20:16,920 Yes, every time he would mention something, I just be looking it 354 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:20,340 up on Wikipedia and you have the names right? The dates, right 355 00:20:20,340 --> 00:20:23,400 and everything. Like how do you? How do you do that? 356 00:20:24,120 --> 00:20:27,510 They may just have a eidetic memory. It's possible. Yeah. 357 00:20:27,540 --> 00:20:31,350 Well, after this interview you again you will be Is he the real 358 00:20:31,350 --> 00:20:33,000 deal? Is he What is 359 00:20:33,450 --> 00:20:35,010 still a mystery? What is it? 360 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,060 And now it's time for your sexual harassment? 361 00:20:39,780 --> 00:20:45,120 That's right. Hashtag me too. So let's see. What do we have? The 362 00:20:45,120 --> 00:20:49,170 latest which I found interesting was Linda Sarsour, accused of 363 00:20:49,170 --> 00:20:52,230 enabling sexual assault and harassment in the workplace. She 364 00:20:52,230 --> 00:20:57,480 is the she's the co founder of the Women's March. You know her? 365 00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:57,840 She's, 366 00:20:58,679 --> 00:21:00,929 she's that horrible woman. Yes. 367 00:21:00,959 --> 00:21:03,779 You're gonna say horrible Muslim woman. I know. But that was just 368 00:21:03,779 --> 00:21:04,409 a descriptor. I 369 00:21:04,860 --> 00:21:07,680 was just gonna say horrible woman. Yeah, she's 370 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:12,450 nasty. And you know, she won't talk about how she she's. I 371 00:21:12,450 --> 00:21:16,830 don't know if she's had any has she any as she denied this 372 00:21:16,830 --> 00:21:19,470 anywhere? Or I haven't really sent out care. 373 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:23,670 Yeah. Oh, okay. I don't care because I think she's just a 374 00:21:23,670 --> 00:21:24,750 creep. So it does. 375 00:21:25,230 --> 00:21:29,880 And we're still waiting for the somewhere between 15 and 20 376 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:35,220 lawmakers of both parties in Congress or on Capitol Hill to 377 00:21:35,220 --> 00:21:38,220 be outed. That hasn't happened yet. 378 00:21:38,220 --> 00:21:41,400 Although the fact that it hasn't happened already is a little 379 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,700 sketchy to me that it might not happen at all because there's no 380 00:21:44,700 --> 00:21:48,120 reason for it now that Judge Moore didn't get elected I think 381 00:21:48,120 --> 00:21:50,700 that it's going to make everything calm down. But I do 382 00:21:50,700 --> 00:21:54,000 have one clip myself for this segment. Okay. Because it's 383 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,070 there was actually mentioned in the newsletter about how they're 384 00:21:56,070 --> 00:21:57,300 trying to you know, 385 00:21:59,340 --> 00:22:03,000 after going going after Meryl Streep with she knew hashtag me 386 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,740 to hashtag she knew. 387 00:22:05,250 --> 00:22:08,880 Yeah, who cares whether she knew or not at this point. This is an 388 00:22:08,910 --> 00:22:13,830 old story Weinstein's done and why I don't know why we're, it's 389 00:22:13,830 --> 00:22:17,070 just the titillation maybe or just to see this cat fight 390 00:22:17,070 --> 00:22:19,500 between Rose McGowan. And well, 391 00:22:20,370 --> 00:22:25,290 I think what's going on it's award season, and we have you 392 00:22:25,290 --> 00:22:28,680 know, we have the Golden Globes coming up, which is where she 393 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:33,720 famously lauded Harvey Weinstein. So, you know, what 394 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:35,670 are you going to? I think they're talking about all women 395 00:22:35,670 --> 00:22:38,370 all should all dress in black for the award season 396 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,770 all covered in this clip. This is good. 397 00:22:40,980 --> 00:22:43,710 We turn next year tonight to new fallout from the allegations of 398 00:22:43,710 --> 00:22:47,130 sexual abuse against Harvey Weinstein, actress Rose McGowan, 399 00:22:47,340 --> 00:22:50,910 who claims Weinstein rager taking aim now at Meryl Streep, 400 00:22:51,270 --> 00:22:54,120 the GAO and tweeting that Streep's silence is the problem. 401 00:22:54,390 --> 00:22:57,420 Weinstein's lawyer says that any allegations of non consensual 402 00:22:57,420 --> 00:23:01,110 sex are unequivocally denied by Mr. Weinstein. But tonight ABC 403 00:23:01,110 --> 00:23:03,870 is Lindsay Davis now with Meryl Streep's response. 404 00:23:06,060 --> 00:23:09,630 The most nominated actor in Oscar history in a different 405 00:23:09,630 --> 00:23:12,720 role tonight, Meryl Streep defending herself against 406 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,930 accusations she turned a blind eye to Harvey Weinstein's 407 00:23:15,930 --> 00:23:16,950 abusive behavior. 408 00:23:17,010 --> 00:23:21,180 I just want to thank my age and Kevin you vain and God. Harvey 409 00:23:21,180 --> 00:23:21,930 Weinstein 410 00:23:26,610 --> 00:23:30,090 after Weinstein's full strip said she was appalled, adding 411 00:23:30,120 --> 00:23:33,540 not everybody knew recently telling Vogue's Anna Wintour, 412 00:23:33,570 --> 00:23:36,420 she hasn't stopped thinking about it. What do you sit around 413 00:23:36,420 --> 00:23:37,020 talking about? 414 00:23:38,430 --> 00:23:39,420 Dining room table? 415 00:23:39,690 --> 00:23:41,670 Three daughters, Harvey Weinstein. That's 416 00:23:41,670 --> 00:23:43,110 all we talked about. I mean, you know, 417 00:23:44,940 --> 00:23:47,760 but when Streep announced she would join an army of actresses 418 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:51,270 wearing black this award season as a silent protest. It 419 00:23:51,270 --> 00:23:55,110 infuriated actress Rose McGowan, who claims Weinstein raped her 420 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,890 and that cannot stand and it will not stand. McGowen 421 00:23:58,890 --> 00:23:59,310 tweeting. 422 00:24:00,660 --> 00:24:02,700 That sounded a lot like a whipsaw. To me. 423 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:04,980 It was totally, totally 424 00:24:05,610 --> 00:24:07,440 just throw it and clench. I don't want to clip 425 00:24:07,470 --> 00:24:10,920 it infuriated actress Rose McGowan, who claims Weinstein 426 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:15,270 raped her and that cannot stand and it will not stand. McGowen 427 00:24:15,270 --> 00:24:18,690 tweeting, actresses like Meryl Streep, who happily worked for 428 00:24:18,690 --> 00:24:22,410 the pig monster are wearing black in a silent protest. Your 429 00:24:22,410 --> 00:24:26,130 silence is the problem. McGowan adding maybe you should all wear 430 00:24:26,130 --> 00:24:29,850 mark hazeh fashion line designed by Weinstein's estranged wife 431 00:24:29,910 --> 00:24:33,930 now in a lengthy statement, Streep is responding writing, it 432 00:24:33,930 --> 00:24:37,050 hurt to be attacked by Rose McGowan. I wasn't deliberately 433 00:24:37,050 --> 00:24:40,860 silent. I didn't know I don't tacitly approve of rape. I 434 00:24:40,860 --> 00:24:44,580 didn't know I don't like young women being assaulted. I didn't 435 00:24:44,580 --> 00:24:48,270 know this was happening. So far, no direct response from the 436 00:24:48,270 --> 00:24:52,170 gallon though she did delete her tweet and apologize for the dig 437 00:24:52,170 --> 00:24:55,200 about actresses wearing awards dresses designed by Weinstein's 438 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,650 wife. The Mark Hayes aligned was beneath me, she wrote and I'm 439 00:24:58,650 --> 00:24:59,490 sorry for that. 440 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,670 And tonight Meryl Streep says she has reached out to Rose 441 00:25:02,670 --> 00:25:03,630 McGowan street 442 00:25:03,660 --> 00:25:06,660 strip center. She has made sure that McGowan has her phone 443 00:25:06,660 --> 00:25:09,150 number she says that she is waiting for her call. In the 444 00:25:09,150 --> 00:25:11,700 meantime, Harvey Weinstein, as you know, has denied 445 00:25:11,730 --> 00:25:15,750 unequivocally any non consensual sexual activity. David Lindsay 446 00:25:15,750 --> 00:25:16,020 Davis, 447 00:25:16,230 --> 00:25:19,290 on this today, yes. Fantastic. Thank you so much. Yeah, Greg, I 448 00:25:19,290 --> 00:25:22,440 think you're right. That this kind of ends, you know, we had 449 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:26,250 the the Roy Moore, Judge Roy Moore thing that's over and it's 450 00:25:26,250 --> 00:25:27,570 just kind of off, you know, we're done. 451 00:25:28,650 --> 00:25:31,020 They get there to accomplish what they wanted to accomplish. 452 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:38,370 Well, not entirely, as we still have to on resign out, Franken. 453 00:25:39,570 --> 00:25:43,140 This is now in play. We got to undesigned him, because it was 454 00:25:43,140 --> 00:25:47,040 not fair. And I don't you know, I guess what happened was, all 455 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:50,880 right, you're gonna fall on your sword. You're going to resign 456 00:25:50,910 --> 00:25:54,120 and then that will force Trump to resign? I think that's 457 00:25:54,120 --> 00:25:55,890 actually was the strategy here. 458 00:25:57,420 --> 00:25:59,040 No, I don't think so. 459 00:25:59,610 --> 00:26:03,210 To these morons. Yes, it was. That's all they'd been saying. 460 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:08,310 I think it was specifically aimed at if Roy Moore got in. 461 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:12,270 They could they could hound him and use him as a whipping boy, 462 00:26:12,270 --> 00:26:13,890 because Frank and quick. 463 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:18,450 Okay. All right. Well, I'll take that just as good. And now of 464 00:26:18,450 --> 00:26:21,090 course, they you know, we have to undo that. This is 465 00:26:21,690 --> 00:26:28,440 democratics. See? Yes, Democratic Senator Joe Manchin 466 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:31,740 from West Virginia on the political podcast. 467 00:26:31,770 --> 00:26:36,630 I think the Roy Moore thing sends a loud clear message. To 468 00:26:36,630 --> 00:26:40,260 all Franklin Franklin, Franklin. Franklin. 469 00:26:40,860 --> 00:26:43,560 I love my bestest buddy. I'll Franklin Yeah. 470 00:26:45,060 --> 00:26:47,790 The Democrats, the most hypocritical thing I've ever 471 00:26:47,790 --> 00:26:51,480 seen done to a human being, and then have enough guts to sit on 472 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,180 the floor and watch them giving speech and go over and hugging. 473 00:26:55,020 --> 00:26:57,510 That's hypocrisy at the highest level I've ever seen in my life. 474 00:26:58,020 --> 00:27:03,090 made me sick. And here's a man that all he said, Take me 475 00:27:03,090 --> 00:27:06,540 through the Ethics Committee. I will live by whatever decision 476 00:27:06,540 --> 00:27:09,900 and I'll walk away thinking, this opportunity I've had while 477 00:27:09,900 --> 00:27:13,320 I was here. But you find out if you think I'm a predator, you 478 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:16,260 find out if my actions you find out to people I've worked with 479 00:27:16,260 --> 00:27:20,730 all my life. I was in that type of an arena. You know, houses 480 00:27:20,730 --> 00:27:23,820 Listen, I got a lot of flaws. This is not one of them. Give 481 00:27:23,820 --> 00:27:26,760 our chance to prove it. I think is atrocious. We ran a good 482 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:28,320 person off. I don't I didn't vote 483 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:31,590 to not get along and a lot of things. But politically, 484 00:27:32,250 --> 00:27:36,660 we are separate. Okay. But you need people from you need to 485 00:27:36,660 --> 00:27:38,190 have all spectrums of experience. 486 00:27:38,220 --> 00:27:39,540 He hasn't resigned yet. He said, 487 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:43,800 I hope I hope they have enough guts, if they had enough guts, 488 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:47,280 enough conscience, and enough heart to say, Oh, we made a 489 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:51,270 mistake asking prematurely for you to leave least go through 490 00:27:51,270 --> 00:27:55,410 now. Would you subject yourself to a rigorous ethics examination 491 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:59,910 and ethics, you know, investigation and live by 492 00:27:59,940 --> 00:28:02,280 whatever comes out? And then we'll put the vote on? Yeah, 493 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:05,520 well, that's what they should do. That's the human and decent 494 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,700 thing to do. If they have any decency in, they do that every 495 00:28:08,700 --> 00:28:11,580 one of them that signed for him to go out, including Chuck 496 00:28:11,580 --> 00:28:12,750 Schumer would do that. 497 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:14,340 Mm hmm. We shall see. 498 00:28:14,669 --> 00:28:18,089 Well, a couple of things. First of all, we know from other 499 00:28:18,089 --> 00:28:22,859 reports that the Senate and House Senate Ethics Committee 500 00:28:22,979 --> 00:28:28,799 has never found anybody guilty of anything if it was unless it 501 00:28:28,799 --> 00:28:32,219 was done during their tenure in office. So anything that 502 00:28:32,219 --> 00:28:36,179 happened before or when they were kids, or were just before 503 00:28:36,179 --> 00:28:40,499 they got elected. That's always put aside so there's no way he's 504 00:28:40,499 --> 00:28:43,829 not going to breeze through an ethics committee thing. And we 505 00:28:43,829 --> 00:28:48,029 know that in advance. So this is bullcrap. Now, the thing is, I 506 00:28:48,029 --> 00:28:51,899 like to know how he's going to deal with his co senator, Amy 507 00:28:51,899 --> 00:28:57,539 Klobuchar, who demanded he quit. Yeah, I think that's kind of 508 00:28:57,539 --> 00:29:01,169 interesting. But But if he doesn't quit, I think this puts 509 00:29:01,169 --> 00:29:04,769 them at year to date. I think he's going to be a target. You 510 00:29:04,769 --> 00:29:05,849 said he was going to quit. 511 00:29:05,850 --> 00:29:10,830 Right? Right. Yeah, no, he quit. Well, you know, we'll see this. 512 00:29:10,860 --> 00:29:12,240 We live in crazy times. 513 00:29:13,530 --> 00:29:17,400 People grabbing the breast of that dead DJ, whoever she was, 514 00:29:17,580 --> 00:29:20,700 that's just going to be fodder for every election and it's 515 00:29:20,700 --> 00:29:26,070 going to be used by everybody out use it. Already did actually 516 00:29:26,070 --> 00:29:29,190 once with somebody who came up with this. I just posted that 517 00:29:29,190 --> 00:29:35,340 picture. It's just too funny of a comeback not to do. Yeah, even 518 00:29:35,340 --> 00:29:37,260 though I said from the beginning, he should have never 519 00:29:37,260 --> 00:29:40,290 resigned or said he was going to resign or absolutely quit the 520 00:29:40,290 --> 00:29:40,830 party. 521 00:29:41,730 --> 00:29:46,530 Well, the hashtag me to campaign is just running rampant 522 00:29:46,530 --> 00:29:49,380 throughout the entire universe, including the United Kingdom's 523 00:29:49,470 --> 00:29:52,980 another blow for Theresa May as she attempts to navigate Brexit 524 00:29:53,010 --> 00:29:57,150 treacherous waters in the EU on the 29th of March to me, 525 00:29:57,420 --> 00:29:59,490 it's not exactly the same as me too, but 526 00:29:59,490 --> 00:30:03,570 to see Minister Damian green to resign late Wednesday. An 527 00:30:03,570 --> 00:30:06,960 internal investigation found he had made misleading statements 528 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:10,680 about pornography found on computers at his office. It was 529 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:15,030 a reluctant loss greens one of Mays most trusted allies, and a 530 00:30:15,030 --> 00:30:18,600 key advocate of a soft Brexit who voted to remain in the 531 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,630 European Union. Green was appointed first Secretary of 532 00:30:21,630 --> 00:30:25,740 State Mays de facto deputy in the wake of the disastrous snap 533 00:30:25,740 --> 00:30:28,620 election in June that stripped Mays conservatives of their 534 00:30:28,620 --> 00:30:33,180 majority, his job partly to pacify a party deeply divided by 535 00:30:33,180 --> 00:30:36,900 Brexit. To make matters worse, is the third minister to quit in 536 00:30:36,900 --> 00:30:40,440 the past two months for green It all began in November when an 537 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:44,070 academic said he sexually harassed her two years ago. She 538 00:30:44,070 --> 00:30:47,670 denies the investigation said it couldn't conclude either way, 539 00:30:47,790 --> 00:30:50,940 but deemed her account plausible. Also in November, it 540 00:30:50,940 --> 00:30:53,850 was reported that the police had found pornography on a computer 541 00:30:53,850 --> 00:30:57,810 in Green's parliamentary office wasn't a date, Green said that 542 00:30:57,810 --> 00:31:00,990 was untrue, and later denied that police had told him that 543 00:31:00,990 --> 00:31:04,380 discovered such images. Both of those statements turned out to 544 00:31:04,380 --> 00:31:07,980 be inaccurate Mays wounded government is expected to limp 545 00:31:08,010 --> 00:31:10,560 on though there's little appetite for a leadership 546 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:12,300 contest with Brexit looming. 547 00:31:13,230 --> 00:31:19,530 You go bad this all stems from that idiotic snap election she 548 00:31:19,530 --> 00:31:19,830 called 549 00:31:19,830 --> 00:31:22,950 for. I still don't know why she did that. That's so odd. 550 00:31:23,430 --> 00:31:26,550 Nobody knows why she did. She thought she could just take over 551 00:31:26,550 --> 00:31:29,610 the world. Everyone's going to love her so much. I mean, this 552 00:31:29,610 --> 00:31:34,530 is the kind of i You see this in our Congress to a kind of a you 553 00:31:34,530 --> 00:31:39,120 know, with Trump. It's kind of like lost on you know, what the 554 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:43,170 public is thinking is lost on them. In fact, there's a good 555 00:31:43,170 --> 00:31:43,860 good report and 556 00:31:44,010 --> 00:31:47,160 then I'll talk to the public John, the mean, they go out in 557 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:50,220 public, they're literally cordoned off the press or on one 558 00:31:50,220 --> 00:31:52,200 side, the public is somewhere that people did the press 559 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,270 doesn't talk to the public unless they're gonna do man on 560 00:31:54,270 --> 00:31:56,430 the street and chop it up to whatever they want it to be. 561 00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:58,980 So they're proud. I'm not just saying the press. I'm saying the 562 00:31:58,980 --> 00:32:02,010 politicians in the press. Yeah, yeah, know that this point 563 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:03,750 presses was a lost cause. 564 00:32:03,780 --> 00:32:09,600 And something that is not discussed, but showed up in an 565 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:15,690 article. Some research from UCLA Health and Human Rights Law 566 00:32:15,690 --> 00:32:21,330 Project. Came up with a statistic in incidents of sexual 567 00:32:21,330 --> 00:32:24,270 violence reported to the National Crime Victimization 568 00:32:24,270 --> 00:32:32,640 Survey. How many percent do you think of victims were men? 40 569 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:39,930 she Frau 38 38%. And the majority of that is forced 570 00:32:39,930 --> 00:32:47,910 penetration not on them but of women. What? Yeah, so women 571 00:32:47,910 --> 00:32:50,040 forcing men to penetrate them. 572 00:32:51,900 --> 00:32:56,400 Really? Yeah. Doesn't seem like anything that would be there 573 00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:57,570 would be a rousing 574 00:32:58,740 --> 00:33:00,810 hey, look, I'm just telling you want to have a 575 00:33:01,620 --> 00:33:04,800 gun to your head and says you got to screw me. Yeah, it's not 576 00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:06,120 like a turn on. I 577 00:33:07,710 --> 00:33:11,850 I think there's probably a lot of this as young men and older 578 00:33:11,850 --> 00:33:19,980 women. A lot of this happening in academia. And that's it a 579 00:33:19,980 --> 00:33:23,430 really interesting paper. It's, I'll put it in the show notes. 580 00:33:23,460 --> 00:33:29,250 992 dot no agenda notes.com. And there's a lot of data on 581 00:33:29,250 --> 00:33:32,550 prisons. Interestingly enough, let me tell you this. You don't 582 00:33:32,550 --> 00:33:35,760 want to go to prison. No, this is just this is this is not 583 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:38,580 where you want to be at all is not good, 584 00:33:38,610 --> 00:33:42,540 though. You think that in fact, you'd think there'd be some kind 585 00:33:42,540 --> 00:33:49,380 of rape in prisons phenomenon, which is not it's actually 586 00:33:49,380 --> 00:33:52,860 shameful that the government has set things up. So this is a 587 00:33:52,860 --> 00:33:55,560 common occurrence. This is should be illegal. And the 588 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:58,980 worst is female is women's prison. That's the worst. 589 00:34:00,270 --> 00:34:03,330 Yeah, this is this is should be illegal. And 590 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:07,410 it's not the male staff. It's other female inmates raping 591 00:34:07,410 --> 00:34:08,040 other women. 592 00:34:08,310 --> 00:34:09,930 Yeah, the bull dikes. 593 00:34:10,950 --> 00:34:12,570 I don't know it's the bowl dikes, but 594 00:34:12,690 --> 00:34:13,710 I bet you there's a view. 595 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:19,650 And let me see if we have anything else on this. Oh, yes, 596 00:34:19,650 --> 00:34:28,260 I think it is important that the Department of Education scrapped 597 00:34:28,290 --> 00:34:32,280 a key part of government policy. This is something the Obama 598 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:33,600 administration set up 599 00:34:35,070 --> 00:34:39,180 regarding sexual harassment sexual assault on campuses. Now 600 00:34:39,180 --> 00:34:41,880 this was we discussed this on the show a long time ago. I 601 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:46,050 don't remember exactly what what what might fall under Title 10 602 00:34:46,050 --> 00:34:48,570 or nine or something. I can't remember what it falls under. 603 00:34:50,460 --> 00:34:55,320 The guidelines demanded colleges use the lowest standard of proof 604 00:34:55,980 --> 00:34:56,640 per pi 605 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,340 we had so we had some great clips on this where people were 606 00:34:59,340 --> 00:35:04,350 talking about You know, there's no balance between accurate 607 00:35:04,380 --> 00:35:08,340 accusers and the Yes, yes. The accusers if it's a woman in 608 00:35:08,340 --> 00:35:11,430 particular, whatever she says goes and this guy's out, 609 00:35:11,460 --> 00:35:14,910 yes, the preponderance of the evidence. So the lowest standard 610 00:35:14,910 --> 00:35:17,490 of proof preponderance of the evidence, what does that mean 611 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,890 preponderance of the evidence to me? 612 00:35:20,399 --> 00:35:25,229 I think it means the amount. Can I look that up? No. Yeah. Why 613 00:35:25,229 --> 00:35:27,599 don't you look it up? Look up the word preponderance in the 614 00:35:27,599 --> 00:35:27,809 book. 615 00:35:31,350 --> 00:35:34,350 Okay, well, you could have done that. You could have done that 616 00:35:34,350 --> 00:35:37,920 while I was reading the rest. Yeah, I was the relaxed Okay. 617 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:41,700 Here we go. preponderance the quality or fact of being greater 618 00:35:41,700 --> 00:35:45,780 in number quantity or an important city. So what did they 619 00:35:45,780 --> 00:35:46,710 mean by that, then, 620 00:35:46,950 --> 00:35:48,960 is one complaint is enough? 621 00:35:49,230 --> 00:35:53,280 Cheese. Okay. So the preponderance of evidence 622 00:35:53,310 --> 00:35:56,550 deciding whether a student is responsible for sexual assault, 623 00:35:56,550 --> 00:36:00,360 a verdict that can lead to discipline and expulsion, but 624 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,970 the Department of Education said colleges, were free to abandon 625 00:36:02,970 --> 00:36:06,270 that standard and raise it to a higher standard known as clear 626 00:36:06,270 --> 00:36:09,600 and convincing evidence, which I also think is 627 00:36:10,050 --> 00:36:14,340 Yes, probably still bogus. Yeah. I think one of our one of our 628 00:36:14,340 --> 00:36:17,130 clips, somebody pointed out that if this was going on, this is a 629 00:36:17,130 --> 00:36:20,220 crime. It has nothing to do with the college. They should be 630 00:36:20,220 --> 00:36:22,740 ousting anybody they should call the police. Well, they have 631 00:36:22,770 --> 00:36:24,030 allow have campus 632 00:36:24,030 --> 00:36:24,960 police and stuff. 633 00:36:26,910 --> 00:36:29,790 But not all schools. Not all schools have campus. So So 634 00:36:29,790 --> 00:36:33,420 I do think that's good on one hand, but it doesn't know. I 635 00:36:33,420 --> 00:36:33,720 don't know. 636 00:36:34,140 --> 00:36:35,880 Does it solve the problem necessarily? 637 00:36:35,910 --> 00:36:39,090 It does not. And we still haven't been accused of 638 00:36:39,090 --> 00:36:43,140 anything. This is good. Well, we were 639 00:36:43,140 --> 00:36:44,790 accused of being podcasters. 640 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,930 And this is your sexual harassment update. 641 00:36:49,319 --> 00:36:52,169 Yes, indeed, it does. 642 00:36:53,310 --> 00:36:57,690 Well, I got one more sexual harassment thing was not really 643 00:36:57,690 --> 00:37:01,500 sexual harassment is more of a news story. But this is the USA 644 00:37:01,500 --> 00:37:05,400 Gymnastics update. I mean, the guys in jail now and now it was 645 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:08,430 coming out of the woodwork to sue that it's just it's I don't 646 00:37:08,430 --> 00:37:12,450 know if this is good or bad, but play the USA Gymnastics report 647 00:37:12,509 --> 00:37:16,259 called Olympic medalist. McKayla Maroney is suing USA Gymnastics. 648 00:37:16,499 --> 00:37:19,529 She says the organization tried to cover up her allegations of 649 00:37:19,529 --> 00:37:23,489 sexual abuse against former team Doctor Larry Nasser and a 650 00:37:23,489 --> 00:37:26,099 settlement nearly a year ago, Maroney received one and a 651 00:37:26,099 --> 00:37:28,829 quarter of million dollars and signed a nondisclosure 652 00:37:28,829 --> 00:37:32,279 agreement. Dr. John Le pook has more on this 653 00:37:32,549 --> 00:37:35,879 McKayla Maroney. His lawyer is accusing USA Gymnastics of 654 00:37:35,879 --> 00:37:40,139 covering up her sexual abuse by having her sign a nondisclosure 655 00:37:40,139 --> 00:37:43,619 agreement. Moroni first revealed the abuse in a Twitter post two 656 00:37:43,619 --> 00:37:46,679 months ago, writing that Nasser's abuse started when I 657 00:37:46,679 --> 00:37:51,179 was 13 years old and didn't end until I left the sport. John 658 00:37:51,179 --> 00:37:54,449 Manley represents more than 100 girls and young women including 659 00:37:54,449 --> 00:37:58,709 Moroni alleging sexual abuse by Larry Nasser. Of course, it's a 660 00:37:58,709 --> 00:38:01,349 cover up. I mean, if you're not trying to cover it up, why are 661 00:38:01,349 --> 00:38:04,739 you asking him to be quiet Manley says USA Gymnastics took 662 00:38:04,739 --> 00:38:07,859 advantage of Mulroney's fragile psychological state. 663 00:38:07,980 --> 00:38:10,710 They wanted to keep their dirty laundry quiet and they were 664 00:38:10,710 --> 00:38:15,750 willing to sacrifice my Kayla's health and well being and voice 665 00:38:15,810 --> 00:38:17,640 to do that, and that's just wrong. 666 00:38:17,790 --> 00:38:20,970 At the 2012 London Olympics. Maroney was part of the 667 00:38:20,970 --> 00:38:23,940 powerhouse American women's gymnastics team known as the 668 00:38:23,940 --> 00:38:28,110 fierce five. Just last month, her former teammate and Olympic 669 00:38:28,110 --> 00:38:32,130 gold medalist Aly Raisman, told 60 minutes about her abuse at 670 00:38:32,130 --> 00:38:33,960 the hands of NASA. What did 671 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:38,070 USA Gymnastics do and Larry Nasser do to manipulate these 672 00:38:38,070 --> 00:38:41,280 girls so much that they are so afraid to speak up. 673 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:45,780 Late today, USA Gymnastics put out a statement saying that both 674 00:38:45,780 --> 00:38:48,720 sides had agreed to the settlement and confidentiality 675 00:38:48,720 --> 00:38:51,360 deal and that they were initiated by Mulroney's 676 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:54,150 attorney, not by USA Gymnastics, 677 00:38:54,240 --> 00:38:58,650 Jeff. That was kind of interesting. Who was her lawyer? 678 00:38:59,490 --> 00:39:01,440 I don't know they don't they had the guy on there. But I don't 679 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:04,560 think they mentioned his name. But this dirt by the way dirty 680 00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:09,270 like keeping dirty laundry quiet is kind of a mixed metaphor that 681 00:39:09,270 --> 00:39:12,750 does work. Now, here's the thing about this story, which is 682 00:39:12,750 --> 00:39:15,660 continuing and I don't know what Maroney is up to she if she got 683 00:39:15,660 --> 00:39:18,150 to over a million dollars, you'd think that would be enough to 684 00:39:18,450 --> 00:39:21,810 and then if there was their idea, and then she signed off on 685 00:39:21,810 --> 00:39:24,780 it. So that's kind of sketchy, but 686 00:39:24,780 --> 00:39:28,080 the troll room is saying it was glory Aldridge, of course. 687 00:39:30,540 --> 00:39:33,000 Well, they had one of our attorneys on it was amazing. 688 00:39:33,509 --> 00:39:34,709 He could have been an associate. 689 00:39:35,310 --> 00:39:40,650 Now. You know, here's what, I hate to say this. But I'd like 690 00:39:40,650 --> 00:39:45,750 to know what this guy did. Nobody has discussed it. Was he 691 00:39:45,750 --> 00:39:50,370 fondling them and asking him how does this feel? Or was he how 692 00:39:50,370 --> 00:39:53,490 does this does this feel good? Yeah, does this feel good? Cuz 693 00:39:53,490 --> 00:39:57,180 you're gonna be alive, or was he? I mean, was he flowering 694 00:39:57,180 --> 00:40:00,900 them so they could do better flips. I'm just asking Oh John, 695 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:05,130 I would like to know some details here because as far as I 696 00:40:05,130 --> 00:40:11,310 know the guy didn't do anything unless we have some details let 697 00:40:11,310 --> 00:40:15,030 me just any details any details all was was a robber he abused 698 00:40:15,030 --> 00:40:17,790 them abused. He could have punched him in the face that's 699 00:40:17,790 --> 00:40:19,020 kind of abusing them too. 700 00:40:19,829 --> 00:40:23,279 Well, I will look into it for you see if I can find out what's 701 00:40:23,279 --> 00:40:23,849 going on. 702 00:40:24,599 --> 00:40:26,489 You look into me let me know 703 00:40:26,489 --> 00:40:31,079 i'll let you know the even though it's a great time to come 704 00:40:31,079 --> 00:40:33,659 out and air your dirty dirty laundry that would be the 705 00:40:33,659 --> 00:40:37,859 correct way of using the metaphor. Did you hear about the 706 00:40:37,889 --> 00:40:45,209 CEO of ESPN John Skipper? Probably the he resigned? Yeah, 707 00:40:45,209 --> 00:40:47,729 no because of substance substance abuse. 708 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:51,600 Ah, that's right. Yeah, cool. Probably. Yeah, 709 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:58,920 you look at the guys like man. How about that, huh? No, I just 710 00:40:58,950 --> 00:41:00,330 I just find it hard. 711 00:41:00,509 --> 00:41:03,929 Probably explains a lot because it ESPN has had nothing but 712 00:41:03,929 --> 00:41:06,119 trouble with his ratings have been dropping and dropping and 713 00:41:06,119 --> 00:41:08,699 dropping in my course. I'm always saying is because 714 00:41:09,089 --> 00:41:12,959 nobody's interested in English clubs soccer, which they're 715 00:41:12,959 --> 00:41:16,319 playing way too much of an ESP and I don't care whether 716 00:41:16,319 --> 00:41:20,069 Manchester City or Manchester United wins the game against 717 00:41:20,069 --> 00:41:23,789 Chelsea. I don't really care. No. And I don't think American 718 00:41:23,789 --> 00:41:27,299 viewers care at me. Yeah, few Brits care and some maybe some 719 00:41:27,539 --> 00:41:27,869 some. 720 00:41:29,010 --> 00:41:31,890 I like watching soccer. I'm okay with that. 721 00:41:32,370 --> 00:41:34,650 Yeah, was the last set. What's the last game you watch? What 722 00:41:34,650 --> 00:41:35,280 was the score? 723 00:41:35,610 --> 00:41:44,700 One nil. They're all Yes. It's always one nil. Or we do shoot 724 00:41:44,700 --> 00:41:44,910 out 725 00:41:44,910 --> 00:41:50,550 and then and they're pushing a female women's basketball to an 726 00:41:50,550 --> 00:41:54,540 extreme. It's a women's basketball clubs soccer and, 727 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:56,040 you know, you know, 728 00:41:56,490 --> 00:42:00,150 I'd like to see some I'd like to see Sumo. Sumo. Sumo is 729 00:42:00,150 --> 00:42:02,820 good Sumo. You know what I would like to see more of his women's 730 00:42:02,820 --> 00:42:06,030 field hockey you know? I'm a big fan. Big fan of the women's 731 00:42:06,030 --> 00:42:08,130 field hockey. I love the little 732 00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:11,070 that probably wouldn't be a bad idea or women's it's 733 00:42:11,250 --> 00:42:15,480 it's a range volleyball. Yes it's a ratings Brazilian leagues 734 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:19,020 are the best ratings Bonanza I tell you why they don't listen 735 00:42:19,020 --> 00:42:19,500 to me. 736 00:42:20,129 --> 00:42:28,979 They don't but so ESPN has had issues Yeah. Anyway anything 737 00:42:28,979 --> 00:42:29,879 else in this regard? 738 00:42:29,910 --> 00:42:30,840 No nothing. 739 00:42:32,070 --> 00:42:34,440 Well, I do have a couple of Christmas clips I want to play 740 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:42,060 along the way and did you know I we should probably find that let 741 00:42:42,060 --> 00:42:44,280 me create finding credits for these because I don't I don't 742 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:47,610 know what they're what are what the legalities of playing ask if 743 00:42:47,610 --> 00:42:52,530 these are ASCAP or not. I know their public domain songs Okay 744 00:42:52,530 --> 00:42:56,370 Chris. Yeah, like yeah White Christmas by goats 745 00:43:25,620 --> 00:43:26,400 okay 746 00:43:29,250 --> 00:43:32,700 yeah goats in their very this guy claims to have this 747 00:43:32,700 --> 00:43:35,370 Christmas by goats some goat you can find this 748 00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:40,920 it's obviously a sampler he's just playing samples. No, oh, 749 00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:41,310 yeah, he's 750 00:43:41,370 --> 00:43:45,330 he says no to that they pulled the goats tail. I don't have the 751 00:43:45,390 --> 00:43:49,440 I don't have the cat one. Which is all samplers is just a cat 752 00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:52,260 sample on a keyboard and you can get the cat to sing anything you 753 00:43:52,260 --> 00:43:55,260 want it right right but no these goats he claims that these are 754 00:43:55,260 --> 00:43:59,430 individual goats that were used. That's why he had our goat in 755 00:43:59,430 --> 00:44:03,690 their use. He found all these goats sounds and then he made he 756 00:44:03,690 --> 00:44:06,780 determined what note they were singing. And then he put it 757 00:44:06,780 --> 00:44:09,780 together that way he didn't do it as like on a keyboard with a 758 00:44:09,780 --> 00:44:15,180 sampler. It was like I think an edit job. Now with that in mind. 759 00:44:16,140 --> 00:44:19,470 The dog ones I wish I've always preferred to the castle and I 760 00:44:19,470 --> 00:44:22,500 think you've played this before. I don't know if we played this 761 00:44:22,500 --> 00:44:25,320 one. This was I wish you a Merry Christmas before he played this 762 00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:28,860 is dogs and they this is I think is the most creative I think 763 00:44:28,860 --> 00:44:32,100 this guy knows how to arrange he should be on Broadway, because 764 00:44:32,100 --> 00:44:35,790 he's got dogs growling and he's got dogs repetitively, 765 00:44:35,790 --> 00:44:40,410 repeatedly barking annoyingly like dogs do and I think this is 766 00:44:40,410 --> 00:44:44,970 like a real fantastic dynamite composition except for the fact 767 00:44:45,030 --> 00:44:48,720 that he uses too much music and let not enough dogs 768 00:44:59,610 --> 00:45:07,560 love it If you're so easily entertained John 769 00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:17,040 did that okay, you can kill it. But the point is, is that bill 770 00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:19,290 should listen to the dog Christmas because it's got it's 771 00:45:19,290 --> 00:45:23,670 very, I think is unique in the way he uses growls and other 772 00:45:23,670 --> 00:45:27,180 things, kind of make a gad dimensionality to an otherwise 773 00:45:27,210 --> 00:45:28,200 silly idea. I'm 774 00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:31,260 so happy you brought that to the show that really makes all the 775 00:45:31,260 --> 00:45:34,410 difference. I think so, how about a little Bitcoin update? 776 00:45:35,670 --> 00:45:41,670 Okay, yeah. If you know this is important if you invested in 777 00:45:41,670 --> 00:45:47,040 this invested in this great store of value around let's say 778 00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:52,500 19,000 You thought time to jump in right now? It's $15,617 per 779 00:45:52,500 --> 00:45:56,070 Bitcoin. So you lost effectively about 23% of your investment, 780 00:45:56,070 --> 00:45:58,380 how you feel and right before the holidays. 781 00:45:59,850 --> 00:46:03,690 I didn't invest anything but I think now's the time to buy. 782 00:46:03,720 --> 00:46:07,830 I'm not talking to you. I'm talking to people who jumped on 783 00:46:07,830 --> 00:46:12,150 this bandwagon. And it's, you know, and congratulations, 784 00:46:12,150 --> 00:46:14,970 everybody. The big boys are now in now you see what happens? 785 00:46:15,660 --> 00:46:17,340 Oh, yeah, you're gonna get screwed. I'm gonna get 786 00:46:17,670 --> 00:46:22,650 rude. And then you listen to CNBC. These people are idiots. 787 00:46:23,580 --> 00:46:26,070 And they can't stop talking about it. And it's not just 788 00:46:26,070 --> 00:46:28,920 Bitcoin. It's crypto. This is crypto that the biggest offender 789 00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:29,670 being Kramer 790 00:46:29,730 --> 00:46:31,980 because he asked him that we know is occurring in the crypto 791 00:46:31,980 --> 00:46:35,490 world. I'm not denying the crypto world I am supporting the 792 00:46:35,490 --> 00:46:39,150 crypto world. I think think crypto is great. But I also 793 00:46:39,150 --> 00:46:42,330 think that we have to be a little more careful. Weird name 794 00:46:42,330 --> 00:46:44,790 too. I mean, the Cryptkeeper that's where like a bunch of 795 00:46:44,820 --> 00:46:47,370 dead people. All right, Jim. And I they don't mean investors, 796 00:46:47,370 --> 00:46:49,290 though, right? This is going to where it gets a different 797 00:46:49,290 --> 00:46:52,620 things. It's cryptic. Not not a not a crypt, right. I've been 798 00:46:52,620 --> 00:46:58,080 right. When you see that level of enthusiasm, what that says is 799 00:46:58,080 --> 00:47:01,260 there are true believers, and you can't talk a true believer 800 00:47:01,260 --> 00:47:03,990 out of it. And I always say look, as long as you know the 801 00:47:03,990 --> 00:47:08,310 risk Be my guest. I never ever mind anyone trying to make 802 00:47:08,310 --> 00:47:10,860 money. But a lot of people come on these shows and say they 803 00:47:10,860 --> 00:47:14,130 missed it. They I'm not one of those. I'm saying as long as you 804 00:47:14,130 --> 00:47:17,340 know the risk, it's fine. But you have to understand the risk. 805 00:47:17,970 --> 00:47:20,730 Well, you will. Okay, thanks. We'll see at the top of the hour 806 00:47:20,730 --> 00:47:20,820 is 807 00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:22,650 idiots. 808 00:47:23,640 --> 00:47:26,100 And that's shameful what you just played? 809 00:47:26,130 --> 00:47:29,250 Oh, yeah, it's it is shameful. And by the way, 810 00:47:29,250 --> 00:47:33,240 there is a sure that the root of crypt crypt meaning you like it 811 00:47:33,240 --> 00:47:37,140 kind of a crypt where the dead are and crypto is is has the 812 00:47:37,140 --> 00:47:40,770 same root. It's, it's like a lock. It's like a lock lock. 813 00:47:40,770 --> 00:47:41,160 Yes. 814 00:47:41,910 --> 00:47:46,950 So, of course a lot of people based on our broadcast here have 815 00:47:46,950 --> 00:47:50,970 been sending me, you know, hate notes and saying, you know, 816 00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:54,060 you're an idiot. Listen to this guy. He knows what he's talking 817 00:47:54,060 --> 00:47:57,870 about. This is great. So meanwhile, we're down from 818 00:47:57,870 --> 00:48:03,600 20,000 to 15,000. And ah, there's an explanation for 819 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:06,240 it. Oh, there's always an explanation you're at, you're 820 00:48:06,240 --> 00:48:07,800 ready. It's the 821 00:48:07,830 --> 00:48:09,570 S curve of adoption. 822 00:48:11,490 --> 00:48:13,320 Oh, that means it's going to skyrocket. 823 00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:18,030 So it went up and now it goes curly Q and then it's gonna go 824 00:48:18,030 --> 00:48:23,130 up against the S curve of adoption. Oh, people this How 825 00:48:23,130 --> 00:48:26,670 about this poor, poor saps? Who mortgaged their home to jump in? 826 00:48:26,670 --> 00:48:30,270 Because, you know, they jumped in at 17 1819. Like, 827 00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:34,650 to the moon, I would assume that you a lot of people, somebody 828 00:48:34,650 --> 00:48:39,900 bought it at nine or 18? Because it went to 19. Yeah, and they 829 00:48:39,900 --> 00:48:43,920 stayed in because it's going to the moon. Most people would have 830 00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:48,450 stayed in, I would just kind of come back, it'll come back to 831 00:48:48,450 --> 00:48:52,140 19. Maybe when it crashes, it's gonna go down to nothing. That's 832 00:48:52,140 --> 00:48:57,540 what that's and then it'll never return recover. And, or somebody 833 00:48:57,540 --> 00:49:01,410 will crack the crypto off. And imagine that it's possible and 834 00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:02,880 you know, guys are working on it. 835 00:49:02,910 --> 00:49:06,540 Well, hold on. It's the NSA has invented the hash that it's used 836 00:49:06,540 --> 00:49:09,810 for Bitcoin. So they have it, it's I think it's hacked crack. 837 00:49:09,810 --> 00:49:16,470 They know how to do it. I think they're using the 256 Whatever, 838 00:49:16,950 --> 00:49:21,630 hash things and this is where I get into trouble. Yeah, you 839 00:49:21,630 --> 00:49:24,420 should stop while you're ahead. And then Coinbase which is you 840 00:49:24,420 --> 00:49:28,260 know, seen by many as you know, as the number one exchange, they 841 00:49:28,260 --> 00:49:33,930 halted trading of bitcoin cash due to Insight possible insider 842 00:49:33,930 --> 00:49:36,120 trading. Now, I asked you, 843 00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:39,990 what does that mean? I asked you what tosee was 844 00:49:40,020 --> 00:49:45,270 No. insider trading means you got a tip. And then you bought 845 00:49:45,300 --> 00:49:47,820 before the news came out what kind of knew 846 00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:50,730 exactly what that's in a nutshell. That's what insider 847 00:49:50,730 --> 00:49:51,930 trading refers to 848 00:49:51,960 --> 00:49:56,850 what kind of news was there? And I actually heard I got it. I 849 00:49:56,850 --> 00:49:59,580 gotta get this clip for you. This guy said, people just don't 850 00:49:59,580 --> 00:50:01,500 understand And when they when they don't understand bitcoins 851 00:50:01,500 --> 00:50:03,480 because they don't understand the fundamentals like 852 00:50:04,620 --> 00:50:06,690 fundamentals of Bitcoin, okay? 853 00:50:11,910 --> 00:50:14,460 I just feel sorry for people who do any odds kids with their 854 00:50:14,460 --> 00:50:19,350 skateboard money, you know, weed money. Here's a tip from Uncle 855 00:50:19,350 --> 00:50:22,830 Adam, keep your skateboard smoke the weed, don't buy the bitcoin 856 00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:25,110 is not going to 857 00:50:25,110 --> 00:50:28,590 turn out when it hits 25,000 You're gonna get more hate mail. 858 00:50:28,860 --> 00:50:32,070 Sure. And then when it hits 50,000, you're gonna get even 859 00:50:32,070 --> 00:50:33,870 more hate mail. But the problem 860 00:50:33,870 --> 00:50:40,200 is that people do not have the psychological discipline to 861 00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:44,190 sell, they will hold and they will hold and they will hold and 862 00:50:44,190 --> 00:50:44,940 then they're screwed. 863 00:50:46,950 --> 00:50:49,890 And that's the way it works. And that's the way it's supposed to 864 00:50:49,890 --> 00:50:50,190 work. And 865 00:50:50,190 --> 00:50:52,620 they certainly don't have the discipline to sell when they're 866 00:50:52,620 --> 00:50:57,240 losing. I mean, do you want to make money trading or when 867 00:50:57,240 --> 00:50:59,490 you're losing, you got to you got to cut it, you got to cut 868 00:50:59,490 --> 00:51:01,320 your loss, people are saying, Oh, I could come back and could 869 00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:04,320 bounce back. And the 870 00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:07,740 mentality it's like I said before, anyone who's stupid 871 00:51:07,740 --> 00:51:13,170 enough to take money making investment, real estate, that 872 00:51:13,170 --> 00:51:16,950 always goes up, it flops down once a while, but it doesn't 873 00:51:16,950 --> 00:51:19,920 does real look at a chart and see what the prices are. It's a 874 00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:23,400 limited, it's, you know, there's only so much of it. It's useful. 875 00:51:24,390 --> 00:51:28,320 You can build on it. And you can sell it somebody else very 876 00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:31,260 easily. And there's systems in place like title companies to 877 00:51:31,260 --> 00:51:33,840 make sure you don't get screwed. Yeah, there's all kinds of 878 00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:36,150 entities insurance, title insurance, and all these things. 879 00:51:36,150 --> 00:51:39,150 There's nothing like that for Bitcoin, not just oh, and Wild 880 00:51:39,150 --> 00:51:39,450 West. 881 00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:43,560 And I will say I love blockchain. I love what it what 882 00:51:43,560 --> 00:51:48,450 it possibly can do. Yeah, but there's, there's all kinds of 883 00:51:48,450 --> 00:51:52,560 peer to peer. And we have that what was that? We even even 884 00:51:52,560 --> 00:51:55,020 tried to use that for a while to distribute our show. What's it 885 00:51:55,020 --> 00:51:55,710 called? 886 00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:57,210 It's a bit torn thing. Oh, 887 00:51:57,240 --> 00:52:01,470 yeah, it's dammit. There's a whole bunch of them. But this 888 00:52:01,470 --> 00:52:03,840 hash space, you know, hash space is out there. And that's how 889 00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:07,410 peer to peer in essence works. And you don't really need a 890 00:52:07,410 --> 00:52:10,680 centralized system. And that, of course, is where it is where we 891 00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:14,820 need to go. You can't be here, you know, if we're going to rely 892 00:52:14,820 --> 00:52:19,770 on the face bag and Twitter for our, for our communications, at 893 00:52:19,770 --> 00:52:21,690 Twitter, by the way with new rules. 894 00:52:22,230 --> 00:52:24,780 You know, what's your new rules? 895 00:52:24,839 --> 00:52:29,309 Let me see I have the rules here. The Twitter so they have 896 00:52:29,309 --> 00:52:35,429 new policies on violence, abuse and hateful conduct. And they'll 897 00:52:35,459 --> 00:52:39,539 well first of all, they will unverified you for sure. No, no, 898 00:52:39,599 --> 00:52:44,459 yeah. Let's see. Content boundaries and use of Twitter. 899 00:52:44,549 --> 00:52:49,259 Okay, graphic violence unlawful. Let me see. Oh, misuse of 900 00:52:49,559 --> 00:52:52,169 abusive behavior. Here we go. We believe in freedom of 901 00:52:52,169 --> 00:52:55,109 expression, open dialogue. But that means little, as an 902 00:52:55,109 --> 00:52:58,589 underlying philosophy is voices are silenced because people are 903 00:52:58,589 --> 00:53:03,419 afraid to speak up. Stop right there. How does that even make 904 00:53:03,419 --> 00:53:07,319 sense? If if you if I'm on Twitter, and I'm and I want to 905 00:53:07,319 --> 00:53:14,459 tweet something, but someone else says you're a dick. And all 906 00:53:14,459 --> 00:53:20,039 of a sudden this is bad that I'm now I'm afraid to tweet. I don't 907 00:53:20,279 --> 00:53:24,029 really I'm trying to understand what that sentence means. We 908 00:53:24,029 --> 00:53:26,459 believe in freedom of expression, open dialogue, but 909 00:53:26,459 --> 00:53:29,129 that means little as an underlying philosophy is voices 910 00:53:29,129 --> 00:53:33,509 are silenced. Because people are afraid to speak up. In order to 911 00:53:33,659 --> 00:53:36,809 be you can go you can be on Twitter or anonymous. You can do 912 00:53:36,809 --> 00:53:40,019 all kinds of ways. In order to ensure that people feel safe 913 00:53:40,019 --> 00:53:43,109 expressing diverse opinions and beliefs. We prohibit behavior 914 00:53:43,109 --> 00:53:47,309 that crosses the line into abuse, including behavior that 915 00:53:47,309 --> 00:53:51,449 harasses intimidates or uses fear to silence another user's 916 00:53:51,449 --> 00:53:56,699 voice, okay, you don't have a voice on Twitter, you type. We 917 00:53:56,699 --> 00:54:00,209 don't hear you. You're not talking. You got 280 characters 918 00:54:00,209 --> 00:54:06,659 to do it. And I don't understand how fear and intimidation on 919 00:54:06,659 --> 00:54:10,829 Twitter silences someone's voice. However, they continue 920 00:54:10,829 --> 00:54:13,739 context matters when evaluating for abusive behavior and 921 00:54:13,739 --> 00:54:17,669 determining appropriate enforcement actions. factors we 922 00:54:17,669 --> 00:54:20,399 may take into consideration include but are not limited to 923 00:54:20,399 --> 00:54:24,059 whether colon the behavior is targeted at an individual or 924 00:54:24,059 --> 00:54:27,449 group of people. The report has been filed by the target of the 925 00:54:27,449 --> 00:54:31,559 abuse or by bystander, the behavior is newsworthy, and in 926 00:54:31,559 --> 00:54:36,119 the legitimate public interest. That's an interesting one. So 927 00:54:36,779 --> 00:54:41,159 you may be able to silence voices if your behavior in doing 928 00:54:41,159 --> 00:54:46,769 so is newsworthy, oh, that would mean Trump I get it. Of course. 929 00:54:47,729 --> 00:54:51,899 So Trump can't get kicked off. Because his behavior by 930 00:54:51,959 --> 00:54:53,519 definition is worthy. 931 00:54:53,940 --> 00:54:57,210 By definition, everything he says is newsworthy, fantastic, 932 00:54:57,210 --> 00:54:59,910 that's why they put it in. So when people say hey, why don't 933 00:54:59,910 --> 00:55:06,690 we should kick the president of that POTUS. Basically, they just 934 00:55:06,690 --> 00:55:08,190 slipped that one and I didn't even realize 935 00:55:08,910 --> 00:55:11,460 you know, they could that could apply to a lot of people. Yes. 936 00:55:11,730 --> 00:55:15,180 I'd say people like Rob Reiner who is just a you know, horrible 937 00:55:15,180 --> 00:55:19,140 tweet hate hate, hate, hate, hate, hate hate. Yep. Same thing 938 00:55:19,140 --> 00:55:20,340 is kind of newsworthy. 939 00:55:21,630 --> 00:55:26,550 And let's see, what else do we have now? That was the main 940 00:55:26,550 --> 00:55:27,420 thing about Twitter. 941 00:55:29,610 --> 00:55:30,450 It's good to know 942 00:55:30,510 --> 00:55:33,870 now do you want to do the because I see you have some tax 943 00:55:33,870 --> 00:55:36,180 bill stuff. Do you want to do that now? Or would you like to 944 00:55:36,180 --> 00:55:37,290 take a break or? 945 00:55:37,710 --> 00:55:41,310 Alright, well, let's see. It's about everyone getting more 946 00:55:41,310 --> 00:55:44,790 money. We take the break first and we can talk about that 947 00:55:44,850 --> 00:55:45,840 afterwards. I guess 948 00:55:45,870 --> 00:55:48,000 with that I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the 949 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:51,330 morning to you John.

This time of year 999 00:58:48,930 --> 00:58:53,460 brings out our social stupidity. So pardon the following rant. 1000 00:58:53,790 --> 00:58:57,270 When I make my rant in person I am called insensitive and 1001 00:58:57,300 --> 00:59:01,530 ignorant and I probably am. Thankfully, this is a listener 1002 00:59:01,530 --> 00:59:04,890 supported podcast or some of the crap I type would be taken as 1003 00:59:04,890 --> 00:59:10,350 harassment racist or hateful, which is probably is to which it 1004 00:59:10,350 --> 00:59:14,070 is probably too weak need over privilege utopian globalist 1005 00:59:14,070 --> 00:59:17,520 generation who think that people over 55 know nothing and have 1006 00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:18,960 done nothing for the world. 1007 00:59:19,020 --> 00:59:25,080 Yes. And they don't know social media. Yeah, this happens in the 1008 00:59:25,080 --> 00:59:26,430 workplace a lot. Trust me. 1009 00:59:28,860 --> 00:59:31,980 Yeah, I can imagine. Recently, I have met with family and 1010 00:59:31,980 --> 00:59:35,370 attended meetings where it is obvious that the experiential 1011 00:59:35,370 --> 00:59:40,260 society on the web, that self takes exciting pictures of food, 1012 00:59:40,560 --> 00:59:45,120 or repost political cartoons or repeats memes to demonstrate 1013 00:59:45,120 --> 00:59:49,470 engagement. Do nothing for society, but post superficial 1014 00:59:49,470 --> 00:59:51,480 stuff to look in gay. 1015 00:59:51,990 --> 00:59:55,650 You know, we watched Judd Apatow stand up last night. I think 1016 00:59:55,650 --> 00:59:57,660 it's on Netflix. You know, Judd Apatow, the 1017 00:59:57,960 --> 01:00:01,230 comedian. Actor that is whooping cough. Yeah. 1018 01:00:01,680 --> 01:00:04,110 And he had a funny bit. I liked that. He said, You know if back 1019 01:00:04,110 --> 01:00:07,380 in the day if I had taken a picture and sent it to my friend 1020 01:00:07,380 --> 01:00:11,430 through the mail and said, Hey, I thought I'd send you a picture 1021 01:00:11,430 --> 01:00:15,600 of my food. People would have looked at your very strangely. 1022 01:00:16,530 --> 01:00:18,390 It's a good bit when you hear it in context. 1023 01:00:18,629 --> 01:00:22,229 Yeah, I guess well, maybe your timing is not great. The 1024 01:00:22,229 --> 01:00:26,759 Greatest Generation left their children boomers with La smog. 1025 01:00:26,999 --> 01:00:32,489 That co hoga River and Cleveland burning Love Canal coal slag, 1026 01:00:32,609 --> 01:00:37,589 Gary, Indiana steel mill smoke, deforestation to name a few 1027 01:00:37,589 --> 01:00:43,529 environmental issues, good work. This greatest generation. They 1028 01:00:43,529 --> 01:00:47,069 also passed on whites only bathrooms, college educated 1029 01:00:47,069 --> 01:00:51,209 women restricted to teaching nursing or Secretary jobs, a 1030 01:00:51,209 --> 01:00:54,899 Cold War, the Great Society and more than a few other social 1031 01:00:54,899 --> 01:00:58,859 issues. Look that up in your funk and Wagnalls for those that 1032 01:00:58,859 --> 01:01:03,539 know nothing. I'm exhausted from listening to the BS crap 1033 01:01:03,539 --> 01:01:07,439 Millennials think they face. These so called adults breathe 1034 01:01:07,439 --> 01:01:10,799 cleaner air, drink safer water, have more clean and safe outdoor 1035 01:01:10,799 --> 01:01:13,319 locations have better educational opportunities, 1036 01:01:13,439 --> 01:01:17,399 encounter less discrimination, more wildlife in the US than we 1037 01:01:17,399 --> 01:01:20,099 had growing up. Thanks to us. 1038 01:01:20,610 --> 01:01:24,750 I disagree. I disagree with the better educational opportunities 1039 01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:29,460 discussed at the last show to an extreme depends on what you mean 1040 01:01:29,460 --> 01:01:33,840 by opportunity, yet they believe 55 to 70 did nothing and know 1041 01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:36,750 nothing about the societal issues and the environment and 1042 01:01:36,750 --> 01:01:41,460 they have to save the world from us. Because he this is the baby 1043 01:01:41,460 --> 01:01:46,290 boomers lament. So what he's doing because 55 to seven years 1044 01:01:46,290 --> 01:01:50,670 is that group, millennials vote for people that believe the same 1045 01:01:50,670 --> 01:01:55,350 crap that the older generation boomers should pay more to fix 1046 01:01:55,350 --> 01:01:58,470 stuff for them, rather than doing it themselves. 1047 01:01:58,620 --> 01:02:01,470 Unfortunately, we raise the latest generation we should have 1048 01:02:01,500 --> 01:02:05,310 eaten our young. Fortunately, the global competition they face 1049 01:02:05,310 --> 01:02:10,140 may eat them alive. Anyway. Done. Thanks for tolerating my 1050 01:02:10,140 --> 01:02:14,250 rant enclosed as my monthly donation. I do my best using old 1051 01:02:14,250 --> 01:02:17,430 technology to be timely, it ain't easy getting things 1052 01:02:17,430 --> 01:02:21,930 delivered from Dogpatch. My donations require a bank teller 1053 01:02:21,930 --> 01:02:25,590 and mail carrier to pick up the mail at least one mail sorted 1054 01:02:25,590 --> 01:02:28,740 and put it in the correct trucks and a mail carrier to deliver 1055 01:02:28,740 --> 01:02:32,760 the letter. Not all donations are sent in the US Mail. Time 1056 01:02:32,760 --> 01:02:37,560 making timely delivery even more challenging. And JNK and 1057 01:02:37,560 --> 01:02:40,020 JNK.

Late later, I think 1064 01:03:06,269 --> 01:03:06,569 it's sort of 1065 01:03:06,570 --> 01:03:11,430 sounds that he's complaining a lot. Andrew gusik in Greensboro, 1066 01:03:11,430 --> 01:03:16,620 North Carolina 56382. I had a job opportunity present myself 1067 01:03:16,620 --> 01:03:19,740 earlier this year and forwarded my resume to the hiring manager. 1068 01:03:19,740 --> 01:03:22,740 I then walked over a month waited a month for an interview. 1069 01:03:22,950 --> 01:03:26,430 The day after I heard my brother Bob Knight of the dudes named 1070 01:03:26,430 --> 01:03:30,660 Ben give me a jobs karma I got my call back after a successful 1071 01:03:30,660 --> 01:03:37,230 interview and notice a notice and notice worked. I'm not sure 1072 01:03:37,230 --> 01:03:40,830 what that means. I am now training for my new career at C 1073 01:03:40,860 --> 01:03:44,640 O.

Remember us at VO red.org/n. A and particularly 1192 01:11:00,150 --> 01:11:02,850 around the holidays, you need to be out there propagating our 1193 01:11:02,850 --> 01:11:08,400 formula. Our formula is this. We go out. We hit people in the 1194 01:11:08,400 --> 01:11:33,930 mouth. So we have a new tax code. tax plan tax code. Yeah. 1195 01:11:35,790 --> 01:11:40,500 And, and this is this, I think is a big deal. Yeah, we haven't 1196 01:11:40,500 --> 01:11:42,090 changed this in a long time. 1197 01:11:42,720 --> 01:11:44,550 Over 30 years. Yeah. 1198 01:11:45,210 --> 01:11:53,490 And I looked at it. And I have to say that I have no idea if 1199 01:11:53,580 --> 01:11:57,150 any of this will work. I don't think anyone does. Not I don't 1200 01:11:57,150 --> 01:12:00,660 think anybody knows it's all a crapshoot. Yeah, that's that's 1201 01:12:00,660 --> 01:12:03,510 what it seems like to me. You just don't know if this is gonna 1202 01:12:03,510 --> 01:12:04,260 work or not? 1203 01:12:07,050 --> 01:12:10,020 Well, it's already working for some people, I think, ah, AT and 1204 01:12:10,020 --> 01:12:13,350 T or Comcast or one of these guys have given everybody $1,000 1205 01:12:13,350 --> 01:12:14,010 Oh, absolutely. 1206 01:12:14,010 --> 01:12:20,040 I have the list here. It was an 18 t give everybody a bonus 1207 01:12:20,070 --> 01:12:23,190 300,000 people. Now I've done this with my company. In the 1208 01:12:23,190 --> 01:12:26,910 past, when we had the public company think new ideas. And it 1209 01:12:26,910 --> 01:12:29,670 takes a little while to do something. You can't just say as 1210 01:12:29,670 --> 01:12:33,810 CEO, a let's give everyone a grand. There's a lot of a lot of 1211 01:12:33,810 --> 01:12:35,880 work, you know, you have to set it up. There's all kinds of 1212 01:12:35,880 --> 01:12:40,080 implications, tax implications, payroll implications, the board 1213 01:12:40,080 --> 01:12:42,270 has to approve it. There's a whole bunch of stuff that goes 1214 01:12:42,270 --> 01:12:45,150 down. More interesting to me is the companies who are saying 1215 01:12:45,150 --> 01:12:51,060 we're raising our wages to $15. Now that I think is interesting, 1216 01:12:51,660 --> 01:12:54,900 yeah, there's a whole bunch of them doing that. And it will 1217 01:12:54,929 --> 01:12:57,929 end the way I took this is because I know it takes a lot. 1218 01:12:57,929 --> 01:13:01,409 So raising the wage on your workers. Now this takes a long 1219 01:13:01,409 --> 01:13:06,179 time. So I think because this is your AT and T It's Boeing, these 1220 01:13:06,179 --> 01:13:09,479 are big companies, a lot of military industrial complex. My 1221 01:13:09,479 --> 01:13:15,419 feeling is Hey, guys, look. DO ME A SOLID on this. If we pass 1222 01:13:15,419 --> 01:13:20,939 this thing, then, you know, show how great it is. And then I'll 1223 01:13:20,939 --> 01:13:25,469 make sure we bought by more your crap, which we're about to do as 1224 01:13:25,469 --> 01:13:27,029 the as the you know, we're, 1225 01:13:27,570 --> 01:13:31,290 we're probably right. And you're right, you just can't do this. 1226 01:13:31,620 --> 01:13:32,520 Instantly. 1227 01:13:32,760 --> 01:13:37,980 Let me play the little clip. I have you heard about the NDAA. 1228 01:13:37,980 --> 01:13:39,570 The National Defense Authorization 1229 01:13:39,570 --> 01:13:43,320 Act, the Senate $700 billion defense policy bill is far 1230 01:13:43,320 --> 01:13:44,490 beyond what President does. 1231 01:13:44,850 --> 01:13:48,750 700 That's more than it used to be. We track this stuff. It used 1232 01:13:48,750 --> 01:13:53,670 to be around 656 40, maybe 660. There's an extra 40 bill that 1233 01:13:53,670 --> 01:13:57,000 just passed out there man and Mom, I'm thinking Thank you very 1234 01:13:57,000 --> 01:13:58,890 much for you know, giving everybody a raise 1235 01:13:58,920 --> 01:14:03,000 Senate $700 billion defense policy bill is far beyond what 1236 01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:05,970 President Donald Trump had sought, and it sets the tone for 1237 01:14:05,970 --> 01:14:10,530 America's military might in the next fiscal year. Now the 1200 1238 01:14:10,530 --> 01:14:15,210 page bill sets aside about $640 billion for basic Pentagon 1239 01:14:15,210 --> 01:14:19,350 operations, which is 37 billion more than Trump requested. It 1240 01:14:19,350 --> 01:14:23,100 also adds another 60 billion for a special war account for 1241 01:14:23,100 --> 01:14:26,610 overseas operations in places like Iraq, Syria and 1242 01:14:26,610 --> 01:14:29,880 Afghanistan. Now, the mammoth spending bill got mammoth 1243 01:14:29,880 --> 01:14:33,600 bipartisan support in the Senate. 89 senators voted yay. 1244 01:14:33,630 --> 01:14:37,620 While only eight voted Nay. It needed just simple majority to 1245 01:14:37,620 --> 01:14:38,130 pass 1246 01:14:38,160 --> 01:14:44,190 this. Budget Democrats voting for this too.

And by the way, 60 extra billion dollars 60 extra 1248 01:14:48,510 --> 01:14:53,010 water was 60 extra billion dollars for the money going into 1249 01:14:53,010 --> 01:14:59,670 Iraq and Afghanistan. There are potholes on highway 80 that need 1250 01:14:59,670 --> 01:15:02,190 fix Seems like they're fixing the potholes in Iraq. 1251 01:15:04,170 --> 01:15:06,960 Let me tell you the potholes in Iraq are pretty pretty bad. 1252 01:15:07,830 --> 01:15:11,160 Yes, but don't fix them to sell they can just get filled with 1253 01:15:11,160 --> 01:15:16,440 dirt.

I'm going to glue it to the car. I'm gonna drive 1260 01:15:35,040 --> 01:15:38,580 on some of these roads and show you yes and posted on YouTube. 1261 01:15:38,760 --> 01:15:44,370 These roads is unbelievable. By the way I did. I almost broke an 1262 01:15:44,370 --> 01:15:47,610 axle on Highway five come when I was coming back from Los 1263 01:15:47,610 --> 01:15:51,630 Angeles. It's unbelievable. I 1264 01:15:51,660 --> 01:15:55,230 almost almost posted a comment on the face back the other day. 1265 01:15:55,920 --> 01:16:00,180 I think it was Dave Winer. Someone. Yeah, these tax cuts. 1266 01:16:00,360 --> 01:16:03,600 I'm doing the Dave Winer voice there. He's just gonna go to the 1267 01:16:03,600 --> 01:16:09,690 military industrial complex. All Republicans by the way. Know the 1268 01:16:09,690 --> 01:16:12,270 CEO of Raytheon, a woman. 1269 01:16:12,930 --> 01:16:16,470 The most of them are Democrats. The CEO of the Lockheed Martin's 1270 01:16:16,470 --> 01:16:19,260 death is a woman and a Democrat. So I meant I want to lock you 1271 01:16:19,530 --> 01:16:22,680 down to take a look at the Senate vote. And Tom, tell me 1272 01:16:22,680 --> 01:16:24,630 how many Democrats voted for this bill? 1273 01:16:26,010 --> 01:16:28,980 How many did most it's just a bigot. Yes, 1274 01:16:29,130 --> 01:16:29,850 we continue. 1275 01:16:30,210 --> 01:16:32,910 spending bill got mammoth bipartisan support in the 1276 01:16:32,910 --> 01:16:37,830 Senate. 89 senators voted yay. While only eight voted Nay. It 1277 01:16:37,830 --> 01:16:41,160 needed just simple majority to pass. Now getting into the nitty 1278 01:16:41,160 --> 01:16:45,600 gritty of the proposed National Defense Authorization Act 141 1279 01:16:45,600 --> 01:16:48,630 billion is set aside for military personnel costs, 1280 01:16:48,780 --> 01:16:52,800 including a 2.1% Troop pay raise. Eight and a half billion 1281 01:16:52,800 --> 01:16:55,800 is for the US Missile Defense Agency to defend against North 1282 01:16:55,800 --> 01:17:00,150 Korea, while 705 million is for the Israeli cooperative missile 1283 01:17:00,150 --> 01:17:03,150 defense programs well more than what the Trump administration 1284 01:17:03,150 --> 01:17:07,140 requested. Another 500 million will provide security assistance 1285 01:17:07,140 --> 01:17:11,490 including weapons to Ukraine, and 100 million to help bulk and 1286 01:17:11,490 --> 01:17:15,630 nations to quote deter Russian aggression. Now in addition to 1287 01:17:15,630 --> 01:17:19,140 spending allocation, Senators proposed hundreds of amendments 1288 01:17:19,170 --> 01:17:23,370 they hope to be attached to the NDAA. Most were left off but New 1289 01:17:23,370 --> 01:17:26,340 Hampshire Democrat Jeanne Shaheen 's amendment to ban the 1290 01:17:26,340 --> 01:17:29,940 use of Russian based Kaspersky Lab software across the federal 1291 01:17:29,940 --> 01:17:33,660 government was attached and passed. This comes a week after 1292 01:17:33,660 --> 01:17:36,180 the Trump administration directed federal agencies to 1293 01:17:36,180 --> 01:17:40,020 remove the software, saying the risk is too great to ignore that 1294 01:17:40,020 --> 01:17:43,050 the Russian government could use the private company software as 1295 01:17:43,050 --> 01:17:45,720 a backdoor into the US government. Then more 1296 01:17:45,720 --> 01:17:49,020 controversial amendments were left off the NDAA to promote its 1297 01:17:49,020 --> 01:17:52,590 passing. But this will not be the final version it must be 1298 01:17:52,590 --> 01:17:55,200 reconciled with the House version before heading to the 1299 01:17:55,200 --> 01:17:58,440 President's desk. The House passed its own plan in July and 1300 01:17:58,440 --> 01:18:01,560 the two do have differences. While Congress seems to agree on 1301 01:18:01,560 --> 01:18:04,680 very little these days, the National Defense Authorization 1302 01:18:04,680 --> 01:18:08,490 Act is seen as a must pass legislation and has been passed 1303 01:18:08,520 --> 01:18:12,630 55 straight years where it will run into trouble is with 1304 01:18:12,630 --> 01:18:16,980 finances. The House and Senate versions both defy sequestration 1305 01:18:16,980 --> 01:18:21,330 cap set and 2011. Democrats are not against blowing the cap. But 1306 01:18:21,330 --> 01:18:24,420 they also want to see caps eased on non defense spending and have 1307 01:18:24,420 --> 01:18:27,990 pledged to block major increases in military spending without 1308 01:18:27,990 --> 01:18:30,210 similar boost to domestic programs 1309 01:18:30,390 --> 01:18:34,470 was poor guys at Kaspersky Labs. They got screwed. They are suing 1310 01:18:34,500 --> 01:18:35,760 they didn't donate enough. 1311 01:18:36,150 --> 01:18:39,600 No, I think this is a payback for them. They're the ones who 1312 01:18:39,600 --> 01:18:42,810 pretty much discovered and busted everybody for Stuxnet. 1313 01:18:42,810 --> 01:18:43,380 Stuxnet 1314 01:18:43,380 --> 01:18:45,210 right? You're right. You're right. 1315 01:18:46,830 --> 01:18:50,550 This is this is your Hey, thanks for all that for all the help. 1316 01:18:50,580 --> 01:18:53,880 Yeah. Audio. So yeah, he knows motions. 1317 01:18:55,080 --> 01:18:57,180 Sorry. Sorry. Kaspersky. 1318 01:18:58,920 --> 01:19:02,160 Well, I have the let's play the tax cuts stuff that came out. 1319 01:19:02,160 --> 01:19:05,400 This was on CBS. And so there, there was very interesting 1320 01:19:05,400 --> 01:19:08,700 report because they were kind of this is a very interesting three 1321 01:19:08,700 --> 01:19:11,670 parter here I've got so let's start with the rundown. 1322 01:19:11,970 --> 01:19:14,700 President Trump got what he wanted most for Christmas. 1323 01:19:14,880 --> 01:19:17,340 Congress today approved a one and a half trillion dollar 1324 01:19:17,340 --> 01:19:21,120 package of tax cuts, part of the biggest overhaul of the tax code 1325 01:19:21,120 --> 01:19:25,740 in 31 years. It also cuts out a major part of Obamacare, ending 1326 01:19:25,740 --> 01:19:28,320 the requirement that most Americans buy health insurance 1327 01:19:28,350 --> 01:19:32,160 or pay a fine now right after I finally bought some damage. This 1328 01:19:32,160 --> 01:19:34,890 is the President's biggest legislative victory achieved 1329 01:19:34,890 --> 01:19:38,100 without a Democratic votes and he called Republicans to the 1330 01:19:38,100 --> 01:19:41,520 White House to celebrate Major Garrett was there. 1331 01:19:41,820 --> 01:19:45,000 This will indeed be a very big day when people look back at our 1332 01:19:45,000 --> 01:19:45,540 country. 1333 01:19:45,960 --> 01:19:48,750 President Trump and fellow Republicans celebrated on the 1334 01:19:48,750 --> 01:19:52,350 South Lawn and promised the tax cuts will unleash economic 1335 01:19:52,350 --> 01:19:52,860 growth. 1336 01:19:52,920 --> 01:19:56,040 It means jobs, jobs, jobs jobs. 1337 01:19:56,310 --> 01:19:59,970 The President showered praise on GOP leaders Mitch McConnell and 1338 01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:00,990 Paul Ryan 1339 01:20:01,020 --> 01:20:03,120 who has a little team, it's always a lot of fun when you 1340 01:20:03,120 --> 01:20:06,870 win. If you work hard and lose, that's not acceptable, but the 1341 01:20:06,870 --> 01:20:07,350 President 1342 01:20:07,350 --> 01:20:11,220 will sign the bill in the coming days. It reduces the corporate 1343 01:20:11,220 --> 01:20:16,080 tax rate from 35% to 21%. doubles the current standard 1344 01:20:16,080 --> 01:20:19,800 deduction for individuals and families and doubles the Child 1345 01:20:19,800 --> 01:20:23,670 Tax Credit. Taxpayers will see the effects in February 1346 01:20:23,670 --> 01:20:26,790 paychecks. Congressional Republicans who met the 1347 01:20:26,790 --> 01:20:30,540 President's Christmas deadline for passage served up fawning 1348 01:20:30,540 --> 01:20:32,130 praise for Mr. Trump, 1349 01:20:32,370 --> 01:20:35,250 but for your leadership, we would not be here today. You're 1350 01:20:35,250 --> 01:20:35,730 living up 1351 01:20:35,730 --> 01:20:39,270 to every everything I thought you would something this 1352 01:20:39,270 --> 01:20:43,920 profound, could not have been done without exquisite 1353 01:20:43,920 --> 01:20:45,240 presidential leadership. 1354 01:20:45,270 --> 01:20:46,170 No Democrats 1355 01:20:46,650 --> 01:20:49,980 are the bill party leaders Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi said 1356 01:20:49,980 --> 01:20:52,650 Republican promises went unfulfilled. 1357 01:20:52,980 --> 01:20:55,350 They were going to reduce the brackets they did not. The 1358 01:20:55,350 --> 01:20:58,170 corporate loopholes are worse than ever in this bill. 1359 01:20:58,410 --> 01:21:01,980 For the President today ceremony kept a year of accomplishments. 1360 01:21:02,010 --> 01:21:04,110 Neil Gorsuch on the Supreme Court, 1361 01:21:04,230 --> 01:21:09,270 the qualifications of Judge Gorsuch are beyond dispute, 1362 01:21:09,570 --> 01:21:12,600 fewer illegal crossings on the southern border, regaining 1363 01:21:12,600 --> 01:21:16,200 territory from ISIS in Iraq and Syria and eliminating 1364 01:21:16,200 --> 01:21:19,980 regulations. But the President fell short on replacing the 1365 01:21:19,980 --> 01:21:23,430 Affordable Care Act. We all learned a lot, increasing 1366 01:21:23,430 --> 01:21:27,150 infrastructure spending and changing immigration laws. With 1367 01:21:27,150 --> 01:21:30,930 his trademark zest for superlatives job president says 1368 01:21:30,930 --> 01:21:32,340 he's just getting started. 1369 01:21:32,340 --> 01:21:34,740 So it's going to be really a very special period of time. 1370 01:21:34,920 --> 01:21:35,940 Republicans say 1371 01:21:35,940 --> 01:21:36,570 these tags 1372 01:21:36,570 --> 01:21:39,990 Wow, that was interesting the way they did that. They threw in 1373 01:21:39,990 --> 01:21:44,970 the jobs as his superlative. Let me listen to that again. 1374 01:21:45,300 --> 01:21:48,540 But the President fell short on replacing the Affordable Care 1375 01:21:48,540 --> 01:21:51,810 Act. We all learned a lot increasing infrastructure 1376 01:21:51,810 --> 01:21:55,050 spending and changing immigration laws. With his 1377 01:21:55,050 --> 01:21:58,650 trademark zest for superlatives job President steps 1378 01:21:58,650 --> 01:22:01,320 G's just getting started. So it's going to be really a very 1379 01:22:01,320 --> 01:22:02,460 special period of time. 1380 01:22:02,700 --> 01:22:06,120 Republicans say these tax cuts are having an immediate impact 1381 01:22:06,120 --> 01:22:09,780 late today to large banks, Wells Fargo and third fifth announced 1382 01:22:09,780 --> 01:22:13,620 they're raising their minimum wage to $15 an hour AT and T and 1383 01:22:13,620 --> 01:22:17,130 Comcast said they will be giving all most of their employees a 1384 01:22:17,130 --> 01:22:19,590 $1,000. Bonus, Jeff. 1385 01:22:21,420 --> 01:22:25,770 So one of his superlatives is jobs, jobs, jobs. 1386 01:22:26,040 --> 01:22:26,970 It's what it sounds like. 1387 01:22:28,290 --> 01:22:31,230 Yes, if no one else has ever said that. Like I don't know. 1388 01:22:31,470 --> 01:22:36,120 Nancy Pelosi Pelosi just to name one jobs, 1389 01:22:36,300 --> 01:22:40,530 jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs. 1390 01:22:42,660 --> 01:22:45,840 If you quit question for Do you remember when she sat down and 1391 01:22:45,840 --> 01:22:47,460 what Bill were talking about? 1392 01:22:47,640 --> 01:22:51,150 Oh, no, I can't do you? I'm sure you do. Well, I 1393 01:22:51,150 --> 01:22:52,710 can't remember the exact name of the bill. But it didn't it 1394 01:22:52,710 --> 01:22:55,770 wasn't passed by the Senate. This is the bill, which was, 1395 01:22:56,400 --> 01:23:01,350 which was about the environment where we're going to, we're 1396 01:23:01,350 --> 01:23:06,510 going to green up the whole country. very extensive Bill, 1397 01:23:06,540 --> 01:23:07,020 how are we 1398 01:23:07,050 --> 01:23:09,720 all going? We're all going to be repairing windmills. That's our 1399 01:23:09,720 --> 01:23:10,350 new job. 1400 01:23:10,620 --> 01:23:13,710 We're gonna Yeah, houses are gonna have to be insulated. 1401 01:23:13,740 --> 01:23:16,050 There's all these rules about how much insulation you have to 1402 01:23:16,050 --> 01:23:19,320 have in your house, whether you like it or not. And it was all 1403 01:23:19,320 --> 01:23:20,070 about jobs, 1404 01:23:20,070 --> 01:23:23,610 jobs. The green economy? Yes, absolutely. And 1405 01:23:23,610 --> 01:23:27,240 it was a big failure, mainly because the Senate wasn't gonna 1406 01:23:27,240 --> 01:23:29,850 go for any of that. So let's play a clip to have this rundown 1407 01:23:29,850 --> 01:23:30,540 from CBS. 1408 01:23:30,570 --> 01:23:33,360 John, let me start with you. Mr. Trump begins the 12th month of 1409 01:23:33,360 --> 01:23:36,990 his presidency today. Put this year in context, if you would? 1410 01:23:37,440 --> 01:23:40,530 Well, it's a bit of a paradox. If you look on the one side, you 1411 01:23:40,530 --> 01:23:43,920 have all of those achievements that major talked about, that 1412 01:23:43,920 --> 01:23:46,200 the President got in here, he got a big legislative 1413 01:23:46,200 --> 01:23:49,290 achievement at the end, which was really a what he wanted. But 1414 01:23:49,290 --> 01:23:52,560 for somebody who came into the office with his signature skill 1415 01:23:52,560 --> 01:23:55,980 being marketing, all of those achievements have not paid off 1416 01:23:55,980 --> 01:23:58,830 in popularity, his approval rating, the average is at about 1417 01:23:58,830 --> 01:24:03,630 39%. This tax bill that he's been selling, the the approval 1418 01:24:03,630 --> 01:24:06,990 rating for that is below 30%, about 10 points away from where 1419 01:24:06,990 --> 01:24:10,650 the Affordable Care Act was when President Obama signed it, the 1420 01:24:10,650 --> 01:24:14,370 Republican Party is less popular. And so he has gotten 1421 01:24:14,370 --> 01:24:17,370 the achievement but what has eluded him so far is the 1422 01:24:17,370 --> 01:24:17,850 approval. 1423 01:24:18,090 --> 01:24:21,720 You know, I'm so tired of these, this number, like approval 1424 01:24:21,720 --> 01:24:25,830 number. No one's ever asked me, or anyone I know. Where does 1425 01:24:25,830 --> 01:24:27,480 this come from? And they always have an 1426 01:24:27,480 --> 01:24:30,960 ad really, this is promoted by the Washington Post in the New 1427 01:24:30,960 --> 01:24:37,020 York Times notorious Trump hater haters. And it's, I don't I find 1428 01:24:37,020 --> 01:24:39,630 them to be bogus, because I don't see any evidence of this. 1429 01:24:39,660 --> 01:24:42,420 And especially when they say when Republicans are asked they 1430 01:24:42,420 --> 01:24:47,250 find that they love this guy. So I just think it's just a bogus 1431 01:24:47,280 --> 01:24:51,300 some I don't know. I don't know. It's, it's beyond me. 1432 01:24:51,330 --> 01:24:53,910 It's just it's just something that I just like to pull out all 1433 01:24:53,910 --> 01:24:54,990 the time and say 1434 01:24:54,990 --> 01:24:58,830 everybody hates the tax relief. Yeah. Okay. Why is that? Why is 1435 01:24:58,830 --> 01:24:59,220 that 1436 01:24:59,250 --> 01:25:03,900 well I do have a I know if you want to, let's play certain 1437 01:25:03,900 --> 01:25:04,620 clips. Third clip 1438 01:25:04,980 --> 01:25:09,060 your Paul Ryan and Republicans kids want to go even further and 1439 01:25:09,300 --> 01:25:13,020 reform Medicare and Social Security as well. But some of 1440 01:25:13,020 --> 01:25:15,960 their colleagues think that could be radioactive in a 1441 01:25:15,960 --> 01:25:19,530 midterm election year, especially Jeff since President 1442 01:25:19,530 --> 01:25:21,810 Trump has promised not to touch entitlements 1443 01:25:21,900 --> 01:25:24,420 and trying to talk about that image that was projected today 1444 01:25:24,420 --> 01:25:27,750 at the White House that have a a unified party's at the case 1445 01:25:27,750 --> 01:25:27,960 right 1446 01:25:27,959 --> 01:25:31,709 now. Well, it sure looks like and remember a few weeks ago, we 1447 01:25:31,709 --> 01:25:34,589 were talking about? Well, the race in Alabama, which which 1448 01:25:34,589 --> 01:25:37,439 split the Republican Party and then also you've had some 1449 01:25:37,439 --> 01:25:40,499 senators, even those who were standing behind him today 1450 01:25:40,499 --> 01:25:44,579 smiling and applauding, like Senator Corker, who have been 1451 01:25:44,609 --> 01:25:47,879 openly critical of the president suggested he was a may not be 1452 01:25:47,879 --> 01:25:51,719 fit for the job. They are now all behind him. When when you'd 1453 01:25:51,719 --> 01:25:53,999 asked Paul Ryan about some of these controversies over the 1454 01:25:53,999 --> 01:25:56,999 last several months, he would say, Well, I'm not focused on 1455 01:25:56,999 --> 01:26:01,289 that. I'm focused on our agenda. And that's what you saw today. 1456 01:26:01,319 --> 01:26:04,319 They were in the Promised Land all of them together that locks 1457 01:26:04,319 --> 01:26:07,049 the party in behind the president. It is not just a 1458 01:26:07,049 --> 01:26:09,209 Republican Party, that's President Trump's party, but 1459 01:26:09,209 --> 01:26:12,119 it's now a unified Republican Party by that by today's 1460 01:26:12,119 --> 01:26:12,659 actions. 1461 01:26:14,340 --> 01:26:17,850 Okay, so we'll see. So 1462 01:26:20,040 --> 01:26:23,220 Tina said, Yeah, wow, what's gonna happen? You know, what's, 1463 01:26:23,700 --> 01:26:28,080 she works at a nonprofit, as a small salary. It's very 1464 01:26:28,080 --> 01:26:30,930 difficult to make money in a nonprofit unless you're, you 1465 01:26:30,930 --> 01:26:32,430 know, like Soros. 1466 01:26:33,750 --> 01:26:36,990 Gates, making money from his nonprofit, somebody's 1467 01:26:36,990 --> 01:26:41,670 making money. And there's someone sent me a link to tax 1468 01:26:41,670 --> 01:26:47,130 plan calculator.com. Yeah. And I don't know if it's, if it's, if 1469 01:26:47,130 --> 01:26:50,100 it's right, if it's if it's on if it's correct, but according 1470 01:26:50,100 --> 01:26:53,490 to that she'll save, I think, has something in the 1471 01:26:53,490 --> 01:27:00,480 neighborhood of $2,000 a year. Which is a lot once 1472 01:27:00,690 --> 01:27:03,990 people started getting their checks, starting in February 1473 01:27:03,990 --> 01:27:07,110 that are gives them more money. I think you're going to see 1474 01:27:07,110 --> 01:27:10,350 people not displeased. 1475 01:27:10,590 --> 01:27:15,000 Right. But this is just pure. This is just purely from, I 1476 01:27:15,000 --> 01:27:18,840 guess, the deduction and some other stuff. And you know, 1477 01:27:18,840 --> 01:27:19,980 that's a lot of money. 1478 01:27:20,970 --> 01:27:25,320 Yeah, yeah. $2,000 here, and there's Yeah, standard deduction 1479 01:27:25,320 --> 01:27:29,940 is gone way up. States like Texas do better than states like 1480 01:27:29,940 --> 01:27:32,190 California, and California is going to be a wash because 1481 01:27:32,190 --> 01:27:34,350 you're gonna get screwed out of state. Yeah. 1482 01:27:34,800 --> 01:27:37,710 So you can't deduct that. Now. Is that is that the Is that 1483 01:27:37,710 --> 01:27:39,360 what's going on? You can't deduct that. 1484 01:27:39,870 --> 01:27:43,230 Right? The big states like California, New York, and all 1485 01:27:43,230 --> 01:27:46,860 these places that voted for Hillary, yeah, all got screwed, 1486 01:27:46,860 --> 01:27:48,390 because if they voted for Hillary, 1487 01:27:49,770 --> 01:27:52,290 that's the way I see it doesn't seem very fair. 1488 01:27:52,620 --> 01:27:54,810 They voted for Hillary, then that reason we know we got 1489 01:27:54,810 --> 01:27:57,390 screwed on that deal. And also the roads. 1490 01:27:57,960 --> 01:28:01,740 No, yes. Yes, your potholes. You should go fix that yourself. 1491 01:28:02,130 --> 01:28:03,630 You're all there on the freeway? 1492 01:28:04,620 --> 01:28:06,480 Well then make the freeway a pay way. 1493 01:28:07,560 --> 01:28:10,800 No, it's even so there's still cars going by and they hit this 1494 01:28:10,800 --> 01:28:11,820 thing, making them worse? 1495 01:28:12,570 --> 01:28:17,070 Well, to get a little sampling of what dimension B is thinking 1496 01:28:17,070 --> 01:28:25,980 of the tax plan and who's read his weekend? 1497 01:28:27,030 --> 01:28:28,950 Can we get somebody to fix that? 1498 01:28:29,849 --> 01:28:32,189 I kind of like it. I think it's the best one we got. 1499 01:28:33,059 --> 01:28:36,419 I think it's I don't like it. I think it's lame. I mean, it's 1500 01:28:36,419 --> 01:28:39,509 like an old when you've patched it. This is nothing more than a 1501 01:28:39,509 --> 01:28:40,739 patch work. I didn't 1502 01:28:40,740 --> 01:28:46,710 patch it. So well, this is from The Secret MTV group, my former 1503 01:28:46,710 --> 01:28:50,280 colleagues. And what as I'm as I'm reading through this, I 1504 01:28:50,280 --> 01:28:55,350 realize what I need to do, I need to get a number of voices 1505 01:28:55,350 --> 01:28:57,870 and create a little radio play out of it because it's the post 1506 01:28:57,870 --> 01:29:00,300 and it's all the follow ups. It's all the replies. In this 1507 01:29:00,300 --> 01:29:01,710 case. It really works well. 1508 01:29:01,920 --> 01:29:03,660 So this should be a great radio play. 1509 01:29:03,690 --> 01:29:06,930 Yeah, we just need voices so I can try. We need an Oregon Dun 1510 01:29:06,960 --> 01:29:09,840 dun dun. Why don't you bring your recorder it will be 1511 01:29:09,840 --> 01:29:11,370 perfect. The record 1512 01:29:11,850 --> 01:29:15,900 recorders not going to cut it. Or Monica maybe so the original 1513 01:29:15,900 --> 01:29:22,650 post is well. Merry Christmas to us. We are screwed. And here we 1514 01:29:22,650 --> 01:29:23,940 go with the responses. 1515 01:29:24,540 --> 01:29:29,220 big ugly, hideous Fox, hideous Fox indeed. 1516 01:29:30,720 --> 01:29:34,320 It will create jobs and trickle down and expand economic growth. 1517 01:29:34,350 --> 01:29:38,610 Yep, we all know how great that works. It's hilarious. Yeah, 1518 01:29:38,640 --> 01:29:41,280 yeah, the benefits to the lower middle class should kick in 1519 01:29:41,280 --> 01:29:45,270 right around the time coal comes roaring back. I would laugh but 1520 01:29:45,270 --> 01:29:50,220 it's also sad and crazy. If If companies did care about their 1521 01:29:50,220 --> 01:29:53,550 employees and felt so damn generous, why haven't they all 1522 01:29:53,610 --> 01:29:56,430 wanted an increase in the minimum wage? This idea that 1523 01:29:56,430 --> 01:29:59,490 suddenly corporations aren't going to be greedy and will 1524 01:29:59,490 --> 01:30:02,700 willingly give raises. It's bull crap. That might have been you 1525 01:30:02,700 --> 01:30:05,310 who uses bull crap? You're the only person in the world no use 1526 01:30:05,310 --> 01:30:07,170 bull crap. Are you in my MTV group? 1527 01:30:08,160 --> 01:30:09,300 Bull bull crap 1528 01:30:09,330 --> 01:30:14,160 Exactly. I'm so mad right now. I literally hate every Republican 1529 01:30:15,390 --> 01:30:19,830 Wah wah wah and I have a swamp property for sale in Florida. 1530 01:30:20,190 --> 01:30:26,220 The GOP has over two on trickle down economy Hey 1986 2003 Yeah 1531 01:30:26,220 --> 01:30:30,180 didn't work in the 80s either. The new norm is the scariest 1532 01:30:30,180 --> 01:30:33,930 thing I've ever seen. This is a Twilight Zone episode. He's 1533 01:30:33,930 --> 01:30:43,980 ruining us. Absolutely. Come on asteroid Where are you oh my 1534 01:30:43,980 --> 01:30:45,750 goodness. You want some more? 1535 01:30:46,200 --> 01:30:48,690 Yeah these are all different people's 1536 01:30:48,690 --> 01:30:51,270 all different people yeah it's kind of hard to can't do all the 1537 01:30:51,270 --> 01:30:54,210 different voices every every single one is a separate it's 1538 01:30:54,240 --> 01:30:57,960 almost like labor should become the metric value. What about 1539 01:30:57,960 --> 01:31:02,640 means Reaganomics part two? I'm pretty sure GOP tax goals are 1540 01:31:02,640 --> 01:31:05,790 more money for rich people and corporations and trick poor 1541 01:31:05,790 --> 01:31:10,920 people into thinking that working for them. Yep. Yeah, me 1542 01:31:11,010 --> 01:31:14,130 as bent over New York City, New York City, New York State 1543 01:31:14,130 --> 01:31:18,510 taxpayer in early April got a guy bent over hits a merry 1544 01:31:18,510 --> 01:31:25,110 Christmas. Gary Cohn as the room full of corporate heads if they 1545 01:31:25,110 --> 01:31:27,630 would raise salaries only a couple raise their hands. We 1546 01:31:27,630 --> 01:31:30,120 need to buckle up talk to our lawyers and accountants and 1547 01:31:30,120 --> 01:31:34,380 figure out how to deal with MIB in the midterm elections. Cheese 1548 01:31:34,380 --> 01:31:41,160 people. Ah, Merry Christmas. Hang in this too shall pass. But 1549 01:31:41,160 --> 01:31:48,720 it will likely take some time. And just goes on and on. And on. 1550 01:31:49,020 --> 01:31:54,480 Yeah, I mean, it goes on and on and on. And it's like it's like, 1551 01:31:54,720 --> 01:31:57,510 imagine just put a recorder in the insane asylum. 1552 01:31:57,720 --> 01:32:03,300 It's It's baffling to me that they hear things because the 1553 01:32:03,300 --> 01:32:07,740 message has been very clear. Armageddon, we're going to die. 1554 01:32:07,740 --> 01:32:10,350 Wait, didn't I have that montage? Let's see that was that 1555 01:32:10,350 --> 01:32:11,130 montage? 1556 01:32:13,200 --> 01:32:25,470 Was it tax? Maybe Pelosi? See. I wonder what the title of that 1557 01:32:25,470 --> 01:32:30,360 one was. Tax die. Maybe we're all going to die. 1558 01:32:31,950 --> 01:32:40,770 That dammit I wish I had it. I thank you. Yes, thank you. Okay. 1559 01:32:41,100 --> 01:32:44,790 So anytime, anytime you want to look for the clips is fine by 1560 01:32:44,790 --> 01:32:45,090 me. 1561 01:32:50,040 --> 01:32:57,300 That was the commentary on yet snide remark. Okay. I think 1562 01:32:57,300 --> 01:32:58,290 these people are nuts. 1563 01:32:59,040 --> 01:33:02,430 Well, they're certainly uninformed or not like them. 1564 01:33:02,790 --> 01:33:06,900 Because I didn't go to American school and college. I didn't, I 1565 01:33:06,900 --> 01:33:09,780 was not trained to be a Marxist. I was not trained to have 1566 01:33:09,780 --> 01:33:13,710 feelings like we are rampantly having today for other people 1567 01:33:13,710 --> 01:33:22,890 and equality. And I would I got lucky. You're laughing? I think 1568 01:33:22,890 --> 01:33:23,460 I 1569 01:33:23,520 --> 01:33:25,980 you know, I know you've used this argument before. It's just 1570 01:33:25,980 --> 01:33:27,510 an excuse for not going to school. 1571 01:33:27,930 --> 01:33:31,260 No, no, it's not an excuse. Now. All these 1572 01:33:31,260 --> 01:33:33,810 people all these MTV years that you're listening to? They're all 1573 01:33:33,810 --> 01:33:37,290 one after the other? Are they all college educated? Yes, 1574 01:33:37,290 --> 01:33:41,310 yes. Every single one of them? You betcha. Really? Oh, yeah. 1575 01:33:41,970 --> 01:33:44,610 You couldn't get into MTV as an intern if you weren't in 1576 01:33:44,610 --> 01:33:47,880 college. And if you weren't, you couldn't work. Everyone I know 1577 01:33:47,880 --> 01:33:53,250 graduated everybody. Very well. Let's 1578 01:33:54,000 --> 01:33:56,910 back up again. Let me just consider you crediting that it 1579 01:33:56,910 --> 01:34:02,250 is it possible that it's just because you're not in that meal? 1580 01:34:02,250 --> 01:34:05,370 You at the moment you haven't been for years you were kicked 1581 01:34:05,370 --> 01:34:09,630 out? I don't know if it may be the milieu is what's causing 1582 01:34:09,630 --> 01:34:13,830 this. And if you were in the mill use, or you're a hotshot at 1583 01:34:13,830 --> 01:34:16,620 MTV right now that you'd be just like one of these, 1584 01:34:16,650 --> 01:34:18,870 well, these are the people who I worked with back in the day. 1585 01:34:18,870 --> 01:34:23,430 These are not most of them don't work for MTV anymore. They were 1586 01:34:23,430 --> 01:34:25,590 they're not in the milieu. They're just that well. Now the 1587 01:34:25,590 --> 01:34:28,290 milieu they're in is television. So they do you know, Saturday 1588 01:34:28,290 --> 01:34:31,620 Night Live, gnocchi, so they're still in the business. Yeah, 1589 01:34:31,620 --> 01:34:34,680 they're in the business. Yeah, just not MTV business. I mean, 1590 01:34:34,680 --> 01:34:35,970 what, what 1591 01:34:36,300 --> 01:34:40,860 would you say this then, if you were still in the business, you 1592 01:34:40,860 --> 01:34:44,100 know, the TV, not the cable business, not the podcasting 1593 01:34:44,100 --> 01:34:47,730 business, not the YouTube business, but in the business 1594 01:34:47,730 --> 01:34:53,130 that grew the business, NBC, CBS, ABC, in that milieu. Do you 1595 01:34:53,130 --> 01:34:57,570 think that you'd be thinking like you do today? Or you just 1596 01:34:57,570 --> 01:34:59,040 be lockstep with the rest of them? 1597 01:34:59,070 --> 01:35:02,250 No, I don't think so. I've never been that way. I've never I've 1598 01:35:02,250 --> 01:35:05,190 never been lockstep. I'm that's why I'm patently unhireable. 1599 01:35:05,220 --> 01:35:07,980 They tried to fire me the other day after I got there because I 1600 01:35:07,980 --> 01:35:14,490 said something politically incorrect about Madonna. Oh, I 1601 01:35:14,490 --> 01:35:16,350 was, I think I've told the story before. 1602 01:35:17,220 --> 01:35:18,360 I'd love to hear it again. 1603 01:35:18,390 --> 01:35:24,150 I just got there. And the press the Carol Robinson, she ran the 1604 01:35:24,180 --> 01:35:27,600 press department. We got a big interview lined up for you TV 1605 01:35:27,600 --> 01:35:31,710 Guide, which in the 80s was the magazine to be a TV Guide was 1606 01:35:31,710 --> 01:35:34,740 the largest subscription magazine in the United States at 1607 01:35:34,740 --> 01:35:38,310 the time, right, because we didn't have electronic kids. For 1608 01:35:38,310 --> 01:35:41,250 those of you who don't know, we used to look up what was on TV 1609 01:35:41,250 --> 01:35:44,640 and a booklet. And then a booklet came in the mail if you 1610 01:35:44,640 --> 01:35:47,310 subscribe to the booklet or you bought it when you bought your 1611 01:35:47,310 --> 01:35:48,000 groceries. 1612 01:35:48,390 --> 01:35:50,760 Yeah, there was always there was a point of purchase item right 1613 01:35:50,760 --> 01:35:51,990 at the front of the checks, right? 1614 01:35:52,050 --> 01:35:54,570 That's right, then. And that's how you looked it up. That's how 1615 01:35:54,570 --> 01:35:57,480 you looked up. It was on TV had forgotten about that. How 1616 01:35:57,480 --> 01:35:59,130 archaic does that seem? These days, I 1617 01:35:59,130 --> 01:36:02,940 was also in the newspaper. They had this the schedules and you 1618 01:36:02,940 --> 01:36:05,940 didn't need TV Guide necessarily for local television. 1619 01:36:05,940 --> 01:36:09,840 Yeah, but the newspapers were not as far as I can remember, 1620 01:36:09,840 --> 01:36:12,930 we're not allowed to publish in advance, because the TV Guide 1621 01:36:12,930 --> 01:36:16,620 actually had deals with the broadcasters. So they had 1622 01:36:16,620 --> 01:36:20,040 exclusive on bringing you what was coming up that week. And the 1623 01:36:20,040 --> 01:36:22,650 newspapers could not do that. They could only print what was 1624 01:36:22,650 --> 01:36:25,110 coming up today. And I think for Friday, they could do for the 1625 01:36:25,110 --> 01:36:25,710 weekend. 1626 01:36:25,980 --> 01:36:28,140 Well, they could do the following, which is what they 1627 01:36:28,140 --> 01:36:31,710 did. They had what rewrite it was today's schedule, there's no 1628 01:36:31,710 --> 01:36:33,390 reason to have anything other than that, because you had the 1629 01:36:33,390 --> 01:36:36,180 newspaper, you always got a newspaper. And they would have 1630 01:36:36,210 --> 01:36:39,120 advertisements for what was coming up later in the week. 1631 01:36:40,380 --> 01:36:43,380 Which it seems to me to be the smart way to go anyway. Because 1632 01:36:43,380 --> 01:36:45,060 who's gonna give it away? Give it away? 1633 01:36:45,120 --> 01:36:50,130 Right? I always hated it because they would, I would be on MTV, 1634 01:36:50,130 --> 01:36:55,290 and you'd look under MTV and just be video clips. Video clips 1635 01:36:55,290 --> 01:36:57,210 with Adam curry, no video clips, 1636 01:36:57,300 --> 01:36:59,760 your name was music video clips. 1637 01:37:02,340 --> 01:37:07,380 So this does come back to our conversation about the 1638 01:37:07,680 --> 01:37:11,730 educational system. And the DoD report and the Reese Commission, 1639 01:37:11,730 --> 01:37:15,960 which is I have to say, I think we've probably discussed a lot 1640 01:37:15,960 --> 01:37:18,060 of this throughout the years, there was a point where you were 1641 01:37:18,060 --> 01:37:20,610 even threatening to do a special I kind of think this is your 1642 01:37:20,790 --> 01:37:22,860 your education special. Certainly the work you did on 1643 01:37:22,860 --> 01:37:26,700 last show, which a lot of people seem to really like, yeah, it 1644 01:37:26,700 --> 01:37:29,910 was good stuff. Yeah. And I'm just following up I'm just 1645 01:37:29,940 --> 01:37:32,430 because now people are sending me stuff like oh, gee, I forgot 1646 01:37:32,430 --> 01:37:35,490 about that. And this, all this all these different things. And 1647 01:37:35,490 --> 01:37:42,210 actually, there was a little bit on the the Ford Foundation. Who 1648 01:37:42,210 --> 01:37:46,260 were one of the groups credited with changing the curriculum in 1649 01:37:46,410 --> 01:37:48,960 the educational system, certainly in the United States 1650 01:37:48,960 --> 01:37:53,550 of Gitmo nation. And, and so, yes, 1651 01:37:53,880 --> 01:37:56,730 I was gonna say, which reminds me Whatever happened to Common 1652 01:37:56,730 --> 01:38:01,410 Core? Well common, that has not been in the conversation on our 1653 01:38:01,410 --> 01:38:04,440 show for months and months and months. And I haven't heard it 1654 01:38:04,440 --> 01:38:06,540 on the news media for months and months and months, and I haven't 1655 01:38:06,540 --> 01:38:09,270 heard it on right wing talk radio for months and months and 1656 01:38:09,270 --> 01:38:09,480 months. 1657 01:38:09,480 --> 01:38:11,940 Or maybe I'll do this out of sequence. There's Well, 1658 01:38:11,940 --> 01:38:15,270 let's get to divert. I know, you're gonna tell us the Madonna 1659 01:38:15,270 --> 01:38:15,750 story. 1660 01:38:15,960 --> 01:38:18,930 Oh, the Madonna story. Jeez, I'm glad you reminded me 1661 01:38:19,350 --> 01:38:22,920 Capilla you're wandering off? Like, like you were trying to 1662 01:38:22,920 --> 01:38:24,240 avoid it. Anyway, go on. 1663 01:38:24,270 --> 01:38:28,590 It's not now it's not all that big a deal. So the way it works 1664 01:38:28,590 --> 01:38:31,770 is you sit down in the press office in their little cubby 1665 01:38:31,770 --> 01:38:34,740 corner couch, so they can all listen in on the speakerphone. 1666 01:38:34,740 --> 01:38:38,460 Make sure not saying something horrible. Then suddenly to your 1667 01:38:38,460 --> 01:38:40,440 new the new VJ is great. You know, so 1668 01:38:40,680 --> 01:38:43,140 this was not a live in studio interview. 1669 01:38:43,170 --> 01:38:47,100 This was with the well. No TV guy or the phone TV guys a 1670 01:38:47,100 --> 01:38:50,700 magazine. So it was yeah, they were interviewing me about being 1671 01:38:50,700 --> 01:38:54,810 the new VJ on the scene. Oh, okay. All right, go on. And as 1672 01:38:55,110 --> 01:38:56,970 you know, you've been doing this for because I've been working in 1673 01:38:56,970 --> 01:39:00,600 Holland and I've met lots of celebrate ease. And so what did 1674 01:39:00,600 --> 01:39:03,390 you think of Madonna? Now she's not really that nice. 1675 01:39:03,420 --> 01:39:06,870 Well, hold on a second. Why would they ask that question out 1676 01:39:06,870 --> 01:39:07,440 of the blue? 1677 01:39:07,500 --> 01:39:11,430 Because empty that? No, it wasn't out of the blue was like 1678 01:39:11,430 --> 01:39:14,070 okay, you've been working in the television. You've been working 1679 01:39:14,070 --> 01:39:16,830 in music, television. You've met lots of people. You've done lots 1680 01:39:16,830 --> 01:39:17,370 of interviews. 1681 01:39:17,790 --> 01:39:19,680 Sure. What do you think in a Madonna? Yes, it's 1682 01:39:19,680 --> 01:39:24,750 not that nice. I thought they were going to shoot a brick. And 1683 01:39:24,750 --> 01:39:29,310 they'd like hit the mute button. You can't say that. If you say 1684 01:39:29,310 --> 01:39:35,280 that you've read the performing the Video Music Awards. Oh, you 1685 01:39:35,280 --> 01:39:37,080 know those handles those deals they would do? 1686 01:39:37,470 --> 01:39:41,310 Yeah, you were just you were you were being too honest. Yeah, 1687 01:39:41,340 --> 01:39:46,050 exactly. You don't want honesty. No, no, that was foolery hire to 1688 01:39:46,050 --> 01:39:50,640 be honest. It was not your job. Long thing wrong thinking. You'd 1689 01:39:50,640 --> 01:39:53,100 be talking he had nice smile a lot. 1690 01:39:55,260 --> 01:39:59,880 Shut up and smile a lot. Boy. Exactly. It's exactly what it 1691 01:39:59,880 --> 01:40:04,950 was. was sorry, they and they hated me. They never got press 1692 01:40:04,950 --> 01:40:08,250 for me again after that. I was not to be trusted with press. 1693 01:40:09,780 --> 01:40:12,540 Well, it was a screw up. 1694 01:40:13,500 --> 01:40:19,920 No, it was honest. Yeah. It was it was such a double standard. I 1695 01:40:19,920 --> 01:40:21,270 don't want to get into it. And those 1696 01:40:21,270 --> 01:40:24,030 are the same people probably the same mentality that are writing 1697 01:40:24,030 --> 01:40:27,570 those notes and face bag certainly bitching about one 1698 01:40:27,570 --> 01:40:31,920 thing, or they can be honest there. Yeah. So they're 1699 01:40:31,920 --> 01:40:33,030 expressing themselves? 1700 01:40:33,060 --> 01:40:36,270 Yes. The answer the private face bag group. So I guess they can 1701 01:40:36,270 --> 01:40:37,290 be honest there. 1702 01:40:37,950 --> 01:40:39,990 Yeah. Well, then you now you know what's going on in the 1703 01:40:39,990 --> 01:40:42,090 background of all media? Yeah. 1704 01:40:42,570 --> 01:40:46,440 So actually, so there's one woman in particular now moving 1705 01:40:46,440 --> 01:40:48,900 on back to the education stuff if you're okay with that? 1706 01:40:49,349 --> 01:40:51,089 Yeah, just wanted to hear the story. 1707 01:40:52,830 --> 01:40:55,860 And there's been a lot I mean, you get on the YouTubes. And you 1708 01:40:55,860 --> 01:40:58,920 start looking around for stuff DoD report risk commission is 1709 01:40:58,920 --> 01:41:03,360 some extensive stuff. And I mean, I'm just going to play you 1710 01:41:03,360 --> 01:41:07,590 one little piece. And there'll be more as we move forward as we 1711 01:41:07,830 --> 01:41:14,640 examine the idiocy of dimension B. And this woman's name is 1712 01:41:14,640 --> 01:41:18,960 Charlotte Iturbi. I 1713 01:41:19,860 --> 01:41:21,240 listen to all her stuff. Yes. 1714 01:41:21,240 --> 01:41:23,940 And she wrote the book, which we've discussed in the past, the 1715 01:41:23,940 --> 01:41:28,710 deliberate dumbing down of the American education system, which 1716 01:41:28,710 --> 01:41:32,850 is very hard to get. It's certainly not on Kindle, and I 1717 01:41:32,850 --> 01:41:34,830 haven't, do you have a copy of it? I think 1718 01:41:35,009 --> 01:41:37,979 I've been meaning to get it, I just picked up a copy of a 1719 01:41:37,979 --> 01:41:40,139 couple of other crazy old books like that. 1720 01:41:40,799 --> 01:41:45,749 And, and, and now this was shot by Rob do. He's one of our 1721 01:41:45,749 --> 01:41:49,319 knights, he actually works for Infowars. It was shot six or 1722 01:41:49,319 --> 01:41:52,079 seven years ago, and he sent me a text message to die. You mean, 1723 01:41:52,079 --> 01:41:54,749 you got to look at this, because we did this and, and it fits 1724 01:41:54,749 --> 01:41:56,969 right into what you guys are talking about. So okay, so there 1725 01:41:56,969 --> 01:42:00,479 is some dramatized music from time to time that comes in, and 1726 01:42:00,479 --> 01:42:04,409 this is one clip. But this is when she was living abroad, she 1727 01:42:04,409 --> 01:42:07,739 married a guy, a Belgian guy, and was living in Brussels, and 1728 01:42:07,739 --> 01:42:11,039 she's worked in embassies, State Department, Department of 1729 01:42:11,039 --> 01:42:15,029 Education, she's a government woman, yes. And she uncovered 1730 01:42:15,629 --> 01:42:18,389 all of these different things that were taking place. And in 1731 01:42:18,389 --> 01:42:22,769 particular, the training of change agents. And this was 1732 01:42:22,769 --> 01:42:27,299 government sponsored program, where you learn how to change 1733 01:42:27,299 --> 01:42:30,599 the thinking of the children in the schools. So she came back 1734 01:42:30,599 --> 01:42:34,829 from, from living abroad, sent her kids to public school, and I 1735 01:42:34,829 --> 01:42:38,519 think its main, and she got on the school board, and you know 1736 01:42:38,519 --> 01:42:43,079 about the PTA, or whatever it is. And they were talking about 1737 01:42:43,079 --> 01:42:45,929 what the curriculum should be. And this is where we pick up the 1738 01:42:45,929 --> 01:42:47,969 story with her. And we'll just listen for a little bit. 1739 01:42:48,240 --> 01:42:51,330 And I said, What, and she said, Well, it's not it's called 1740 01:42:51,330 --> 01:42:55,770 Innovations in Education. And it's how to become a change 1741 01:42:55,800 --> 01:43:01,230 agent. She paid $100, for me to go, I went, and all these normal 1742 01:43:01,230 --> 01:43:03,960 looking people nice, some from my own school district and all 1743 01:43:03,960 --> 01:43:09,720 in and the guy is a facilitator, but he's using this big book, 1744 01:43:10,410 --> 01:43:13,500 called Innovations in Education, a change agents guide, and it 1745 01:43:13,500 --> 01:43:15,720 has all these case studies. This 1746 01:43:15,720 --> 01:43:20,220 is a book we need, by the way. A change agents guide sounds like 1747 01:43:20,220 --> 01:43:20,880 something I've read 1748 01:43:20,910 --> 01:43:25,320 of teachers and administrators and how to sneak in 1749 01:43:25,680 --> 01:43:30,930 controversial curriculum, such as death at sex ed, bullying, 1750 01:43:30,930 --> 01:43:37,860 add, alcohol, and drug add, you know, all these programs that 1751 01:43:37,860 --> 01:43:40,560 have education hanging off the end of them that have nothing to 1752 01:43:40,560 --> 01:43:43,200 do with education. It's interesting, you don't have math 1753 01:43:43,200 --> 01:43:46,170 and science at all. They call it math and science and history, 1754 01:43:46,170 --> 01:43:49,380 right. But when you see anything with education hanging off the 1755 01:43:49,380 --> 01:43:55,890 end of it, red flag in that training, he taught us how to 1756 01:43:55,890 --> 01:44:01,410 identify resistors in our community, and they were the 1757 01:44:01,410 --> 01:44:04,980 people who were smart, who knew that these programs were 1758 01:44:04,980 --> 01:44:09,240 designed for nothing other than to make children engage in sex, 1759 01:44:09,300 --> 01:44:13,740 to drink, to take drugs, to do all of the things that the 1760 01:44:13,740 --> 01:44:16,530 programs were the parents were being told the progress were to 1761 01:44:16,530 --> 01:44:20,370 help the children. I was considered a resistor to hear 1762 01:44:20,400 --> 01:44:26,310 who they were training, training me to identify myself. And so 1763 01:44:26,340 --> 01:44:30,420 she has this interesting Dutch ism because it was she was in 1764 01:44:30,420 --> 01:44:34,560 Belgium, but the Flemish part. And I noticed this throughout 1765 01:44:34,560 --> 01:44:40,470 the entire interview. Very much were in America we say right, in 1766 01:44:40,470 --> 01:44:45,390 Holland, and also in the Flemish part of Belgium. They say at the 1767 01:44:45,390 --> 01:44:47,550 end. So they, 1768 01:44:47,670 --> 01:44:49,410 you know, it's like Canadians is a 1769 01:44:49,440 --> 01:44:53,970 Yeah, it's like an A, and it's, it's kind of guttural and odd. 1770 01:44:54,450 --> 01:44:57,720 I was considered a resistor to hear I hear they were training, 1771 01:44:58,170 --> 01:45:03,960 training me to it. and I find myself. And so I never ever got 1772 01:45:03,960 --> 01:45:07,770 over that. Also, we were being trained to go to the important 1773 01:45:07,770 --> 01:45:11,190 people in the community. And they're really very good people, 1774 01:45:11,190 --> 01:45:13,920 we all know they are their friends of ours, no, but their 1775 01:45:13,920 --> 01:45:17,160 head of rotary head of Garden Club, head of historical 1776 01:45:17,160 --> 01:45:22,200 society, you go to them, and you explain to them and very, very 1777 01:45:22,200 --> 01:45:25,950 good, you know, highly skilled change agent manner, which is 1778 01:45:25,950 --> 01:45:30,420 just lies, how important these programs are for your children. 1779 01:45:30,420 --> 01:45:36,480 We've got to put these programs in. This was 1973, all the way 1780 01:45:36,480 --> 01:45:40,350 through right now that period in education, we call it the 1781 01:45:40,350 --> 01:45:40,980 unfair. 1782 01:45:42,990 --> 01:45:46,440 Now you've you've met, because now I'm listening to listening 1783 01:45:46,440 --> 01:45:51,630 to it is incredibly annoying. Yeah. I mean, it's because just 1784 01:45:51,630 --> 01:45:53,610 like, right, you're right, right, right. Right, I 1785 01:45:53,610 --> 01:45:54,780 think is better. 1786 01:45:55,710 --> 01:45:59,760 I don't think so I find it to be. If someone says right now 1787 01:45:59,760 --> 01:46:02,520 I'm noticing. I mean, if you hadn't said anything, you would 1788 01:46:02,520 --> 01:46:02,610 have 1789 01:46:02,610 --> 01:46:07,500 noticed it. ruins your day, you can't listen to the guests, you 1790 01:46:07,530 --> 01:46:09,660 know, I can listen to the clip and you ruined my day. 1791 01:46:10,139 --> 01:46:16,469 1073 all the way through right now, that period, in education, 1792 01:46:16,469 --> 01:46:20,819 we call it the unfreezing of our children's values, the ones 1793 01:46:20,849 --> 01:46:24,539 taught by the parents at home, and the church, basically, 1794 01:46:24,929 --> 01:46:29,009 change agents were highly trained by the National Training 1795 01:46:29,009 --> 01:46:31,259 laboratories, we had the headquarters for that and Bethel 1796 01:46:31,259 --> 01:46:33,749 man that goes all the way back to World War Two, I have the 1797 01:46:33,749 --> 01:46:36,089 original paper from that. And it said that what they're putting 1798 01:46:36,089 --> 01:46:39,359 in is the they want to change the values to unfreeze the 1799 01:46:39,359 --> 01:46:43,889 system. And then they're going to implement the new values, the 1800 01:46:43,889 --> 01:46:47,279 new communist values for World Government. Hmm. So that was the 1801 01:46:47,279 --> 01:46:51,779 goal. And they did a good job on it between 1970 and the year 1802 01:46:51,779 --> 01:46:56,519 2000. And now the value is, as we can all see, people are 1803 01:46:56,519 --> 01:46:59,519 saying, Oh, well, we got to be tolerant, you know, they're no, 1804 01:46:59,549 --> 01:47:04,559 no absolutes anymore. That's not fair to judge people don't be 1805 01:47:04,559 --> 01:47:08,369 judgmental. If you're your grandmother is dying of cancer 1806 01:47:08,369 --> 01:47:12,539 and can't afford, you can't afford the medicine. It's okay 1807 01:47:12,539 --> 01:47:15,239 to steal it. You know, that's what you call a values 1808 01:47:15,239 --> 01:47:19,949 clarification. With the education for a planned economy, 1809 01:47:20,399 --> 01:47:25,139 using workforce training to identifying children at a very 1810 01:47:25,139 --> 01:47:27,569 early age, what they're going to do with the rest of their lives. 1811 01:47:27,569 --> 01:47:32,609 It's the Soviet plastic economic system, starting as early as 1812 01:47:32,609 --> 01:47:37,439 first grade. That's been put in now, under the guise of school 1813 01:47:37,439 --> 01:47:42,989 choice charter schools and using the performance based outcome 1814 01:47:42,989 --> 01:47:46,949 based scenario and Pavlovian method with a computer. 1815 01:47:46,980 --> 01:47:49,770 And that's where Common Core comes in. And that is something 1816 01:47:49,770 --> 01:47:52,830 that I will definitely highlight in the, in the forthcoming clip. 1817 01:47:54,210 --> 01:47:56,760 Because they are thinking about this, this is I've heard this 1818 01:47:56,760 --> 01:48:00,780 woman, I heard this speech. I've heard most of this stuff. But 1819 01:48:00,810 --> 01:48:04,530 there's one thing that kind of stuck when I was a kid, and 1820 01:48:04,530 --> 01:48:08,190 obviously this system was put into place early. And she blames 1821 01:48:08,190 --> 01:48:12,210 it all on this one guy bloom, who we'll discuss later, but 1822 01:48:14,190 --> 01:48:17,640 when I was a kid, and they took this out, they took this away. I 1823 01:48:17,640 --> 01:48:19,530 don't know why they took it away. Why they didn't keep it 1824 01:48:19,530 --> 01:48:22,800 going, but what they used to have, when you were if you're a 1825 01:48:22,800 --> 01:48:28,170 baby boomer, you went to school, you were put on tracks. Yeah, 1826 01:48:28,170 --> 01:48:30,810 just preconceive your preconceived, okay, this kid is 1827 01:48:30,810 --> 01:48:34,020 going to be an idiot. So we'll put him in with the dumb kids. 1828 01:48:34,380 --> 01:48:37,710 And there was a thing called College Prep. And it was a track 1829 01:48:37,710 --> 01:48:40,590 it was always the smartest kids all in the same class. 1830 01:48:40,620 --> 01:48:43,560 He went to AP for advanced placement classes, I presume. 1831 01:48:44,730 --> 01:48:47,400 From what but if you're on the if you're on the 1832 01:48:47,429 --> 01:48:50,759 fat, right, yeah. And the 90s I was going to school a long time 1833 01:48:50,759 --> 01:48:55,859 for advanced placement. I was asking rages scam don't get me 1834 01:48:55,859 --> 01:48:58,919 started on advanced placement. How about an advanced placement 1835 01:48:58,919 --> 01:49:02,699 a, like I told, I was mentioning a friend of mine is one of the 1836 01:49:02,729 --> 01:49:07,889 board members of Letters and Science at the University of 1837 01:49:07,889 --> 01:49:10,919 California. And he says all you can't even get into Cal now 1838 01:49:10,919 --> 01:49:16,049 unless you have over a 4.0 grade point average. And I said what? 1839 01:49:16,469 --> 01:49:21,689 How do you get over a 4.0 grade? make any sense better than 1840 01:49:21,689 --> 01:49:24,989 perfect? How do you get the grade does you get an A? It's 1841 01:49:24,989 --> 01:49:28,529 four, four points, right? How do you get over that? I don't know. 1842 01:49:28,559 --> 01:49:31,499 You can't it's impossible, but oh no, no, you can't with this 1843 01:49:31,499 --> 01:49:34,739 bullcrap Advanced Placement stuff, which is exploited by the 1844 01:49:34,739 --> 01:49:38,219 Chinese by the way more than anybody else. Now then, those 1845 01:49:38,219 --> 01:49:40,949 days, they didn't have anything like that. That's ridiculous. I 1846 01:49:40,949 --> 01:49:43,019 mean, I don't even know when that showed up. But it had to be 1847 01:49:43,019 --> 01:49:45,899 within the last 20 years. So anyway, but they put you in 1848 01:49:45,899 --> 01:49:49,229 these classes. These, the college prep is called College 1849 01:49:49,229 --> 01:49:52,229 Prep and you're a college prep kid in like the fourth grade, 1850 01:49:52,229 --> 01:49:54,929 the fifth grade, the sixth grade, the seventh grade, right. 1851 01:49:55,439 --> 01:49:57,569 Once you were in high school, then you took courses. It was 1852 01:49:57,569 --> 01:50:00,839 different. It was a little more like college but When in grammar 1853 01:50:00,839 --> 01:50:04,499 school you are you are put on a track. And it was always 1854 01:50:04,499 --> 01:50:07,319 interesting to me because the all the other kids were in like 1855 01:50:07,319 --> 01:50:10,499 there be like, I don't know, sixth fourth grade arts, let's 1856 01:50:10,499 --> 01:50:13,709 say fifth sixth grade, that's where it was most obvious. There 1857 01:50:13,709 --> 01:50:18,269 would be 6/6 grade classes, all different ones. And the dumber 1858 01:50:18,269 --> 01:50:21,329 the kids were, the more they were put in a certain class of 1859 01:50:21,329 --> 01:50:23,699 dummies. Yeah, it was the damnedest thing you've ever 1860 01:50:23,699 --> 01:50:24,179 seen. 1861 01:50:24,390 --> 01:50:29,190 Well, I went to the socialist Dutch school, in the 70s, 1862 01:50:29,310 --> 01:50:32,850 entered in the fifth grade. Then the sixth grade, you had the big 1863 01:50:32,850 --> 01:50:39,330 test, the Seto toots, see it Oh, Seto two central centralized 1864 01:50:39,330 --> 01:50:43,260 testing. And that test will determine where you go after 1865 01:50:43,260 --> 01:50:47,760 sixth grade, then that you would either go to the I think they 1866 01:50:47,760 --> 01:50:54,450 call it the loams hole, or the lower jobs training. Then you 1867 01:50:54,450 --> 01:50:59,280 had the middle jobs training, then you had higher higher 1868 01:50:59,310 --> 01:51:05,910 smarter kids, the H Daviau and Lyceum for Athenaeum gymnasium. 1869 01:51:06,990 --> 01:51:09,720 And the tests were determined there wasn't it wasn't like the 1870 01:51:09,720 --> 01:51:12,360 test and your grades. And it was it was the test. I didn't even 1871 01:51:12,360 --> 01:51:19,500 speak Dutch. So I got to 32 out of 100 Not a good score. And my 1872 01:51:19,500 --> 01:51:22,800 parents went to school. And they said, Oh, you know, it's a 1873 01:51:22,800 --> 01:51:26,190 distant bill. He's a smart kid. So somehow they let me through 1874 01:51:26,190 --> 01:51:31,050 into the HA vo that which is like the third from the top. And 1875 01:51:31,050 --> 01:51:33,720 I failed miserably. Of course, I couldn't speak the language and 1876 01:51:33,720 --> 01:51:34,440 know what the head they. 1877 01:51:35,910 --> 01:51:38,880 They you're like a kid that can't speak English. And he's in 1878 01:51:38,880 --> 01:51:40,260 a regular class. So doing 1879 01:51:40,260 --> 01:51:42,750 that, and of course, I got demoted. But you could see it 1880 01:51:42,750 --> 01:51:46,530 was like, You are dumb, you got X score, you're going to that 1881 01:51:46,530 --> 01:51:48,930 you're going to learn how to weld, you're going to learn how 1882 01:51:48,930 --> 01:51:51,780 to do shop, you're going to learn how to repair cars, and 1883 01:51:51,780 --> 01:51:55,680 you're going to go on and you might become a professor. And 1884 01:51:55,680 --> 01:51:57,600 that was the system. And it seems like 1885 01:51:57,600 --> 01:52:01,200 that? Yes. I'm saying this sounds like the system I was 1886 01:52:01,230 --> 01:52:02,220 we're familiar with. 1887 01:52:02,309 --> 01:52:06,059 So what's interesting in what she talks about is that they're 1888 01:52:06,059 --> 01:52:08,639 all that the education department in the United States, 1889 01:52:09,029 --> 01:52:15,239 made all these deals, starting with the Russians. And this was 1890 01:52:15,899 --> 01:52:19,769 Gorbachev, I think, with it was Reagan and Gorbachev, Reagan and 1891 01:52:19,769 --> 01:52:22,289 Gorbachev and they came up with the United States Russia 1892 01:52:22,289 --> 01:52:26,399 program, improving research and educational activities in higher 1893 01:52:26,399 --> 01:52:29,159 education, they have a similar deal with China, where we are 1894 01:52:29,159 --> 01:52:33,629 melding together all of these concepts, right down to the 1895 01:52:33,629 --> 01:52:38,039 centralized testing right down to the Common Core. And when you 1896 01:52:38,039 --> 01:52:42,809 really look into how kids take tests, and how they study on the 1897 01:52:42,809 --> 01:52:46,079 computer, is you're really not learning anything. It's really 1898 01:52:46,079 --> 01:52:48,899 just like face bag, you know, like, Oh, I did something good. 1899 01:52:49,409 --> 01:52:53,129 I got a little little I feel good, dopamine hit. So the kids 1900 01:52:53,129 --> 01:52:55,559 aren't learning, they're learning how to make the 1901 01:52:55,559 --> 01:52:58,589 computer, give them a happy face if they select the right answer. 1902 01:52:59,039 --> 01:52:59,579 In fact, when you 1903 01:52:59,580 --> 01:53:03,180 start looking into this, it turns out, they don't want to 1904 01:53:03,180 --> 01:53:05,520 talk about this too much. But I think this woman brings it up 1905 01:53:05,520 --> 01:53:08,490 and see they're in her book, or it's other books that they do 1906 01:53:08,490 --> 01:53:13,050 really no one's been able to, to even come close to one on one 1907 01:53:13,080 --> 01:53:17,820 instruction. No. In other words, if I take somebody aside and 1908 01:53:17,820 --> 01:53:21,150 start you know, that's what tutoring is, mentoring is very 1909 01:53:21,150 --> 01:53:24,660 similar. And the one thing they hate talking about, which is 1910 01:53:24,660 --> 01:53:28,110 homeschooling, yes. Which is totally one on one. And they 1911 01:53:28,110 --> 01:53:31,290 turns out that kids develop twice as fast and get twice as 1912 01:53:31,290 --> 01:53:34,770 smart. That's why you would look at any spelling bee and whether 1913 01:53:34,770 --> 01:53:39,510 it's an American or, or an Indian, or whatever ethnic group 1914 01:53:39,510 --> 01:53:42,660 it is, it's always a homeschooled kid who wins the 1915 01:53:42,660 --> 01:53:45,840 spelling bees, because they can concentrate on that or whatever 1916 01:53:45,840 --> 01:53:48,180 they want to concentrate on. Some kid wants to be a good 1917 01:53:48,180 --> 01:53:53,310 speller. Okay, well, let's, let's go. The thing that they 1918 01:53:53,310 --> 01:53:55,980 want on one thing is a problem they can't seem to get around. 1919 01:53:56,340 --> 01:54:01,590 And the other problem seems to me that the education system 1920 01:54:01,590 --> 01:54:07,200 itself really relies on sociology. And sociologists, and 1921 01:54:07,200 --> 01:54:11,310 people that study this society, and we make Americans emphasize 1922 01:54:11,310 --> 01:54:13,020 sociology a lot. And that's where they think they can 1923 01:54:13,020 --> 01:54:15,540 manipulate kids into thinking a certain way, voting a certain 1924 01:54:15,540 --> 01:54:17,940 way, doing certain things certain way. But one of the 1925 01:54:17,940 --> 01:54:21,720 basic tenets of sociology is that your surroundings and 1926 01:54:21,720 --> 01:54:24,750 opinion and the people, the Emile, you, which I'm always 1927 01:54:24,750 --> 01:54:28,290 talking about, the milieu has more to do with it than anything 1928 01:54:28,290 --> 01:54:31,290 else. And so you could take, for example, when I was on the track 1929 01:54:31,290 --> 01:54:34,860 to be I was in a smart kids class, you could technically 1930 01:54:35,220 --> 01:54:40,200 take a motivated kid from the dumbest class and put him in 1931 01:54:40,200 --> 01:54:43,740 this class. And because of the meal, you change, he'd be a 1932 01:54:43,740 --> 01:54:48,840 smart kid, right? And they did something that just must, it 1933 01:54:48,840 --> 01:54:55,320 must really bug them that this basic tenant of sociology is 1934 01:54:55,320 --> 01:54:58,710 never really implemented in these in these in these 1935 01:54:58,740 --> 01:55:01,410 socialistic It seems it just never is. 1936 01:55:03,540 --> 01:55:07,890 So from from this, this one particular interview with 1937 01:55:07,920 --> 01:55:15,300 Charlotte, is Ruby. I've started looking into this, it's a kind 1938 01:55:15,300 --> 01:55:18,960 of a small book. It's not, you can't even get it on Amazon. But 1939 01:55:18,960 --> 01:55:22,770 it's available online, I put a link to in the show notes called 1940 01:55:22,770 --> 01:55:28,410 lines of credit ropes of bondage by Robert Henry Goldsboro. And 1941 01:55:28,410 --> 01:55:31,320 this explains this, really, this is something you want to read. 1942 01:55:31,830 --> 01:55:37,650 And it explains the entire thinking behind what the time 1943 01:55:37,650 --> 01:55:39,630 the guys who were running the show, you know, the bankers, the 1944 01:55:39,630 --> 01:55:42,960 big bankers who are going to, you know, we're funding war, and 1945 01:55:43,290 --> 01:55:46,830 we had this in the in your DoD clips, you know, they wanted to 1946 01:55:46,830 --> 01:55:49,350 find out what can we do? How can we get people to know how do we 1947 01:55:49,350 --> 01:55:51,510 change people? Well, you can change people through war, 1948 01:55:51,510 --> 01:55:53,490 that's pretty good. And then they came up with this idea of 1949 01:55:53,490 --> 01:55:59,550 changing education. And it is the Carnegie, the Ford, and the 1950 01:55:59,580 --> 01:56:01,290 what's the third one, I'm thinking of Rockefeller 1951 01:56:01,290 --> 01:56:06,180 Rockefeller Foundation, but they also did a lot of work on music. 1952 01:56:06,450 --> 01:56:09,180 And when you look into a lot of the theories about where hip hop 1953 01:56:09,180 --> 01:56:11,880 and rap, rap music comes from, and what is promoted, what isn't 1954 01:56:11,880 --> 01:56:14,850 promoted, and what it's really saying. It's very, it's it's 1955 01:56:14,850 --> 01:56:18,240 kind of mind blowing. So that's something I encourage everybody 1956 01:56:18,240 --> 01:56:21,090 to read. But these, these guys have not stopped. And when you 1957 01:56:21,090 --> 01:56:24,750 think about the social justice warrior movement of today, and 1958 01:56:24,750 --> 01:56:29,190 you listen to this interview on Bloomberg, this is a guy from 1959 01:56:29,190 --> 01:56:32,400 the Ford Foundation, the president Darren Walker, ah, 1960 01:56:33,390 --> 01:56:37,200 black guy, just saying because he references that he he look 1961 01:56:37,200 --> 01:56:40,620 where he is today, you kind of understand that this has not 1962 01:56:40,620 --> 01:56:43,680 stopped with, you know, their influence, because they're 1963 01:56:43,740 --> 01:56:47,370 making large grants available for certain types of curriculum 1964 01:56:47,760 --> 01:56:51,180 that can only that money can only be used if they do it that 1965 01:56:51,180 --> 01:56:56,430 way, the schools. Not sorry, this one, income inequality 1966 01:56:56,580 --> 01:57:00,090 is especially hot this year as we head into an election. And 1967 01:57:00,090 --> 01:57:02,970 we're in a period where we're having stronger job creation. 1968 01:57:03,060 --> 01:57:07,020 But income inequality is only worsening everyone at this 1969 01:57:07,020 --> 01:57:07,710 table. What is 1970 01:57:07,710 --> 01:57:11,460 income inequality of these that that women earn less than men 1971 01:57:11,460 --> 01:57:13,800 for the job? Or what is that what is now 1972 01:57:13,830 --> 01:57:17,880 it this is specific, this is a class again, this is a class 1973 01:57:17,880 --> 01:57:21,480 structure issue, which is a cycle in the United States, by 1974 01:57:21,480 --> 01:57:25,050 the way, because we had the same almost exactly the same thing 1975 01:57:25,050 --> 01:57:29,220 before the 29 crash, outrageous income inequality, that means 1976 01:57:29,220 --> 01:57:34,080 rich people are getting richer is of course, well, poor people 1977 01:57:34,080 --> 01:57:35,430 are getting poorer. 1978 01:57:36,210 --> 01:57:39,180 And we need to even that out because we need those, 1979 01:57:39,180 --> 01:57:41,790 soak the rich, get some of that money from them. And now by the 1980 01:57:41,790 --> 01:57:46,380 way, I'm gonna stop at all thinking for a moment and, and 1981 01:57:46,380 --> 01:57:52,350 go to a state take one step up, and realize that if a wealth tax 1982 01:57:52,350 --> 01:57:56,520 was implemented, all these problems would be over. But 1983 01:57:56,550 --> 01:57:58,950 okay, that I'm not going to even discuss it any more than that, 1984 01:57:58,950 --> 01:58:01,260 but that's what income inequality so 1985 01:58:01,290 --> 01:58:04,440 let's just agree on some terms as this topic will be. I think 1986 01:58:04,440 --> 01:58:06,300 we're going to be talking about this for a while. Why don't we 1987 01:58:06,300 --> 01:58:11,730 not to do big topics, but little bits? I believe the concept that 1988 01:58:11,760 --> 01:58:17,100 that these foundations are pushing is Marxism. Would you 1989 01:58:17,100 --> 01:58:21,090 agree with that? Not socialism, not communism. But Marx today, 1990 01:58:21,090 --> 01:58:24,900 the guys who keep talking about it like to call it collectivism. 1991 01:58:25,980 --> 01:58:28,140 And Marxism is a very specific 1992 01:58:28,620 --> 01:58:31,470 term to it's very loaded into. Yeah, 1993 01:58:31,500 --> 01:58:33,180 I and I think collectivism 1994 01:58:33,660 --> 01:58:35,340 will use collectivism from now on, I 1995 01:58:35,339 --> 01:58:38,819 like income inequality is especially hot this year as we 1996 01:58:38,819 --> 01:58:41,909 head into an election. And we're in a period where we're having 1997 01:58:41,909 --> 01:58:45,809 stronger job creation. But income inequality is only 1998 01:58:45,899 --> 01:58:49,019 worsening everyone at this table. Everyone in this building 1999 01:58:49,079 --> 01:58:51,509 is very passionate about this issue. Darren, how are you 2000 01:58:51,509 --> 01:58:52,019 addressing it? 2001 01:58:52,049 --> 01:58:54,779 Why is everyone at Bloomberg passionate about that issue? I 2002 01:58:54,779 --> 01:58:57,599 just Just a question that she thought I think you were 2003 01:58:57,599 --> 01:58:59,879 brought, we brought it up and discussed it earlier in this 2004 01:59:00,119 --> 01:59:03,599 segment about the media. It's the media, the milieu of the 2005 01:59:03,599 --> 01:59:05,879 media, including Bloomberg and everybody else, there are a 2006 01:59:05,879 --> 01:59:08,999 bunch of borderline communists collectivists. 2007 01:59:09,059 --> 01:59:11,759 Well, the American people are concerned about it for the first 2008 01:59:11,759 --> 01:59:15,629 time or then 50% of the American people believe that inequality 2009 01:59:15,749 --> 01:59:19,889 is a major challenge. We're addressing it by organizing all 2010 01:59:19,889 --> 01:59:22,979 of our grant making in the US and around the world. Because 2011 01:59:23,009 --> 01:59:26,459 inequality in many ways undermines our vision for a more 2012 01:59:26,459 --> 01:59:30,119 just and fair world. And for Americans inequality is pretty 2013 01:59:30,509 --> 01:59:33,809 isn't this. I love this. I mean, he's saying it right there. 2014 01:59:34,530 --> 01:59:37,140 Anything if you listen to right wing talk radio and you listen 2015 01:59:37,140 --> 01:59:41,130 to this stuff, you find that the distinction that we made did 2016 01:59:41,130 --> 01:59:43,590 somebody pointed out to us and we've been following it, but we 2017 01:59:43,590 --> 01:59:47,520 don't remind ourselves enough about it is that the Democrats 2018 01:59:47,580 --> 01:59:53,430 are into equality and justice, and the Republicans are into 2019 01:59:53,430 --> 01:59:59,220 freedom and liberty. That distinction is major to 2020 01:59:59,430 --> 02:00:02,370 understand And these two sides and you're on to, you can tell 2021 02:00:02,370 --> 02:00:04,830 these people are Democrat Democrat thinkers because they 2022 02:00:04,830 --> 02:00:06,120 keep bringing up equality. 2023 02:00:06,840 --> 02:00:12,960 So again, it's it's liberty and freedom versus equality and 2024 02:00:12,960 --> 02:00:16,770 justice, equality and justice. It's a whole bunch of words 2025 02:00:16,770 --> 02:00:17,580 fighting each other 2026 02:00:17,730 --> 02:00:21,630 in the US and around the world. Because inequality in many ways 2027 02:00:21,660 --> 02:00:25,380 undermines our vision for a more just and fair world. For 2028 02:00:25,380 --> 02:00:28,470 Americans, inequality is particularly problematic, 2029 02:00:28,530 --> 02:00:34,830 because it takes us robs from us, opportunity, aspiration. 2030 02:00:35,550 --> 02:00:39,870 These are the pillars of our culture, the ability to get on 2031 02:00:39,870 --> 02:00:43,920 the social mobility. A kid like me started in a shotgun shack in 2032 02:00:43,920 --> 02:00:44,880 a small town 2033 02:00:45,450 --> 02:00:46,800 was a shotgun shack, 2034 02:00:47,580 --> 02:00:50,520 I guess a shack where they store shotguns I have no idea. 2035 02:00:50,610 --> 02:00:52,860 It sounds like some, okay, I'll look it up, 2036 02:00:53,010 --> 02:00:57,420 get social mobility, a kid like me starting in a shotgun shack 2037 02:00:57,420 --> 02:01:01,050 in a small town in Texas ending up as president of the Ford 2038 02:01:01,050 --> 02:01:05,190 Foundation. That's an American story. The question is, will 2039 02:01:05,190 --> 02:01:08,460 there be more American stories like mine and yours, David in 2040 02:01:08,460 --> 02:01:10,890 America's future, and if the trends around inequality 2041 02:01:10,890 --> 02:01:15,000 continue, there won't be indeed, the American people. And it's 2042 02:01:15,000 --> 02:01:18,480 not just the Trump supporters are feeling increasingly 2043 02:01:18,510 --> 02:01:22,950 vulnerable, increasingly insecure. And what that does is 2044 02:01:22,980 --> 02:01:26,970 it drives wedges in our in our society and our democracy. 2045 02:01:27,030 --> 02:01:31,560 Inequality is bad for our democracy. It kills aspirations 2046 02:01:31,560 --> 02:01:34,800 and dreams, and makes us more cynical as a people. So you've 2047 02:01:34,800 --> 02:01:37,110 identified this, you've written a letter saying this is your 2048 02:01:37,110 --> 02:01:38,820 number one priority for treasurer, what are you going to 2049 02:01:38,820 --> 02:01:42,450 do about it? We're going to make big grants for big impact. We're 2050 02:01:42,450 --> 02:01:45,600 going to work on a new initiative called inclusive 2051 02:01:45,600 --> 02:01:48,630 economies where we want to get to a conversation about 2052 02:01:48,720 --> 02:01:53,160 sound like New World Order much inclusive economies. 2053 02:01:53,640 --> 02:01:57,270 A shotgun house is a narrow rectangle, it is a shack that 2054 02:01:57,270 --> 02:02:00,600 shot a house not a shack is a narrow rectangular domestic 2055 02:02:00,600 --> 02:02:05,790 residence, usually no more than about 12 feet wide with rooms 2056 02:02:05,790 --> 02:02:08,700 arranged one behind the other and doors at each end of the 2057 02:02:08,700 --> 02:02:12,840 house. Thank you. What are you going to do? 2058 02:02:13,500 --> 02:02:16,530 We're going to make big grants for big impact. We're going to 2059 02:02:16,530 --> 02:02:20,820 work on a new initiative called inclusive economies, where we 2060 02:02:20,820 --> 02:02:23,850 want to get to a conversation about what kind of capitalism do 2061 02:02:23,850 --> 02:02:28,500 we want to have in America, a capitalism that is an economy of 2062 02:02:28,710 --> 02:02:32,520 have a hollowed out middle class and a low wage workforce, or 2063 02:02:32,520 --> 02:02:36,840 capitalism that produces shared prosperity, where all Americans 2064 02:02:36,840 --> 02:02:41,400 have an opportunity to get ahead, get a good education, and 2065 02:02:41,400 --> 02:02:42,540 live a secure life. 2066 02:02:42,660 --> 02:02:46,320 That's very interesting. What kind of capitalism 2067 02:02:48,450 --> 02:02:51,660 He keeps talking to he's a classic example of the of the 2068 02:02:51,660 --> 02:02:55,500 motif with keep talking about equality. And just this in that, 2069 02:02:55,500 --> 02:02:58,230 which is equality and justice again, yes. And that's all they 2070 02:02:58,230 --> 02:03:01,230 talk about. They'll never mention liberty. And I'll never 2071 02:03:01,230 --> 02:03:02,190 mention freedom. And 2072 02:03:02,190 --> 02:03:06,510 notice that he says we're making big grants. Yeah, big grants 2073 02:03:06,510 --> 02:03:11,850 grants to promote this agenda. Of course, and, sadly, this is 2074 02:03:11,850 --> 02:03:14,820 only on Bloomberg. No one else watches that. But you and I 2075 02:03:15,720 --> 02:03:18,630 know and that's wrong. Just you. 2076 02:03:20,280 --> 02:03:23,880 Just me, and parents just don't understand parents don't know. 2077 02:03:24,540 --> 02:03:27,150 Now they're idiots. Well, no, they're not informed and they 2078 02:03:27,150 --> 02:03:29,730 don't know what's what's going on. And they, in fact, most 2079 02:03:29,730 --> 02:03:32,520 parents today have already gone through this system and like, 2080 02:03:32,550 --> 02:03:35,100 oh, yeah, okay, I'm all for it. They dig in 2081 02:03:35,100 --> 02:03:36,930 it. Well, they should all be for homeschooling, and they wouldn't 2082 02:03:36,930 --> 02:03:38,310 be such a problem, but go on. 2083 02:03:39,090 --> 02:03:41,430 Well, I was just going to play them from their website, the 2084 02:03:41,430 --> 02:03:45,240 Ford Foundation's most recent video promo, and that would wrap 2085 02:03:45,240 --> 02:03:49,950 it up for today is hip music by the way, they got the baseline 2086 02:03:49,950 --> 02:03:50,520 in there now. 2087 02:03:51,179 --> 02:03:55,049 Era in every country movements emerge that attempt to transform 2088 02:03:55,049 --> 02:04:00,449 society. Why do some succeed, while others falter? build 2089 02:04:00,449 --> 02:04:03,719 powerful social movements. three core components need to align 2090 02:04:04,409 --> 02:04:07,559 political opportunity, organizational infrastructure, 2091 02:04:07,679 --> 02:04:11,489 and engaged individuals. These components are shaped both by 2092 02:04:11,489 --> 02:04:15,119 long simmering social, economic and political trends and 2093 02:04:15,119 --> 02:04:18,719 unforeseen eruption. And for significant change to occur. All 2094 02:04:18,719 --> 02:04:24,539 three must be strong. Take the anti apartheid in a moment 2095 02:04:24,539 --> 02:04:27,179 shaped by African decolonization, the apartheid 2096 02:04:27,179 --> 02:04:30,659 regime and the Cold War, there emerged strong political 2097 02:04:30,659 --> 02:04:33,449 opportunity, including international sanctions and 2098 02:04:33,449 --> 02:04:37,319 openings within South Africa and engaged in mobilized citizenry 2099 02:04:37,739 --> 02:04:41,729 and established organizational infrastructure. over several 2100 02:04:41,729 --> 02:04:44,219 decades, the three sectors worked in collaboration, 2101 02:04:44,729 --> 02:04:47,159 sometimes epic, sometimes slowing but building enough 2102 02:04:47,159 --> 02:04:51,539 momentum to eventually bring apartheid to an end. But when 2103 02:04:51,539 --> 02:04:55,469 one or more components are weak movements falter. Take the 2104 02:04:55,469 --> 02:04:59,039 example of the Occupy movement, which arose against the backdrop 2105 02:04:59,039 --> 02:05:02,279 of the financial crisis. The growing inequality, the Arab 2106 02:05:02,279 --> 02:05:06,359 Spring and Citizens United. It sprang from individuals 2107 02:05:06,359 --> 02:05:09,359 expressing their outrage at corporate bailouts and systemic 2108 02:05:09,359 --> 02:05:12,959 inequality. political opportunity followed, eventually 2109 02:05:12,959 --> 02:05:16,559 leading to some reforms. But robust new infrastructure did 2110 02:05:16,559 --> 02:05:20,309 not emerge, and momentum fizzled as organizations proved unable 2111 02:05:20,309 --> 02:05:24,899 to fully harness the grassroots movement. Today, a 21st century 2112 02:05:24,899 --> 02:05:27,899 women's movement is gaining strength at a time shaped by an 2113 02:05:27,899 --> 02:05:31,529 assault on women's reproductive rights, economic inequality and 2114 02:05:31,529 --> 02:05:35,699 the immigration. Political opportunities arising as issues 2115 02:05:35,699 --> 02:05:38,249 such as paid sick leave and minimum wage are being 2116 02:05:38,249 --> 02:05:41,789 recognized as women's rights issues. Established women's 2117 02:05:41,789 --> 02:05:44,759 rights organizations are forming new coalition's with workers 2118 02:05:44,759 --> 02:05:48,989 rights and immigration groups through an energized grassroots 2119 02:05:48,989 --> 02:05:51,809 base, transforming women's rights movements by focusing on 2120 02:05:51,809 --> 02:05:55,889 economic issues. movement building is far from an exact 2121 02:05:55,889 --> 02:05:59,069 science. And it takes more than a simple formula to make social 2122 02:05:59,069 --> 02:06:01,889 change happen. But when political opportunity, 2123 02:06:01,949 --> 02:06:05,249 organizational infrastructure and engaged individuals unite, 2124 02:06:05,639 --> 02:06:08,729 they can create a powerful force capable of bending the arc of 2125 02:06:08,729 --> 02:06:10,169 history towards doctor 2126 02:06:10,440 --> 02:06:14,790 I hate this, mainly because the mix the music's 2127 02:06:15,660 --> 02:06:19,950 just slave training and seeing yes as well thing. In fact, as 2128 02:06:19,950 --> 02:06:22,560 I've mentioned on the show before, if minimum wage was true 2129 02:06:22,560 --> 02:06:26,010 to itself, it'd be around $30 an hour, but nobody ever brings 2130 02:06:26,010 --> 02:06:30,270 that up. Because this is all oriented or keeping people poor. 2131 02:06:30,330 --> 02:06:32,670 They want Pete they're talking about minimum wage, minimum 2132 02:06:32,670 --> 02:06:35,460 wage, minimum wage, nobody should be paid that unless your 2133 02:06:35,460 --> 02:06:38,220 kids in school or the summer, they really can't get another 2134 02:06:38,220 --> 02:06:38,850 job there. 2135 02:06:39,030 --> 02:06:42,240 No, no, no, stop, stop right there. You're so right. Instead 2136 02:06:42,240 --> 02:06:46,170 of saying, hey, everybody should be able to exceed and be able to 2137 02:06:46,170 --> 02:06:49,710 make as much money as they want or be as successful as they 2138 02:06:49,710 --> 02:06:52,380 want. It may not become in monetary forms. But instead it's 2139 02:06:52,380 --> 02:06:55,890 like, you need minimum wage slave. You fight for what you're 2140 02:06:55,890 --> 02:06:57,060 fighting down. 2141 02:06:57,570 --> 02:07:01,560 You're fighting down and for our minimum wage that is bogus. $15 2142 02:07:01,560 --> 02:07:04,980 is not a minimum wage is ridiculous. That's a slave wage. 2143 02:07:05,070 --> 02:07:07,950 And oh, yeah, we've got we're gonna raise it to 50 Raise it 2144 02:07:07,950 --> 02:07:10,920 from, it shouldn't be rosy. Like I said, I've got done the 2145 02:07:10,920 --> 02:07:13,980 calculation, when it was first brought into the system, it 2146 02:07:13,980 --> 02:07:16,770 should be 30 bucks or more. And they're never no one ever 2147 02:07:16,770 --> 02:07:19,200 suggests even suggests that because it would screw things 2148 02:07:19,200 --> 02:07:22,800 up, it would maybe release some of these poor people from the 2149 02:07:22,830 --> 02:07:25,530 bondage that they're in. It's unbelievable. Jimmy this whole, 2150 02:07:25,740 --> 02:07:29,100 this whole operation is just to sounds like they just want to 2151 02:07:29,100 --> 02:07:30,630 keep everybody down. 2152 02:07:30,960 --> 02:07:35,250 Yes, that is the point. So you become a we become an entire 2153 02:07:35,250 --> 02:07:42,060 global citizenry of slaves who work for minimum wage, or a 2154 02:07:42,060 --> 02:07:45,930 portion who goes on to become the elites. And you're chosen 2155 02:07:45,930 --> 02:07:49,980 right there in your Shula, the shooter chooses you, then we 2156 02:07:49,980 --> 02:07:52,680 take you in and we, we accept you up here. 2157 02:07:53,010 --> 02:07:53,820 And you're supposed to 2158 02:07:53,820 --> 02:07:56,160 like it. You will love it slave 2159 02:07:56,190 --> 02:07:59,820 to training, the trainings for I'm sorry, but that's what the 2160 02:07:59,820 --> 02:08:02,370 training is for the training is that and all these people that 2161 02:08:02,370 --> 02:08:04,620 are involved with all this of all these social justice 2162 02:08:04,620 --> 02:08:06,510 warriors, and everybody individually, they've been 2163 02:08:06,510 --> 02:08:10,920 trained to like it? Yep. Because one of the things they like is 2164 02:08:10,920 --> 02:08:14,010 bitching and moaning about the you know, the difference between 2165 02:08:14,010 --> 02:08:17,400 the UnYk inequality and the lack of justice and all this stuff, 2166 02:08:17,400 --> 02:08:19,410 because it makes them feel like they're accomplishing something. 2167 02:08:19,650 --> 02:08:21,990 All they're doing is just putting themselves in a box and 2168 02:08:21,990 --> 02:08:26,370 stay in there. It's unbelievable. So no, no way of 2169 02:08:26,370 --> 02:08:31,800 right. picking people up. You're not interested in that. No, no, 2170 02:08:31,800 --> 02:08:31,950 it's 2171 02:08:31,950 --> 02:08:35,790 keeping people down, fight down for your low wage slave. That's 2172 02:08:35,790 --> 02:08:40,950 what that's the message. Then now, you 2173 02:08:40,950 --> 02:08:43,980 know why I'm different. shake your fist at the rich people, 2174 02:08:44,010 --> 02:08:48,300 even though most of them are Democrats. I mean, the whole of 2175 02:08:48,300 --> 02:08:51,630 Silicon Valley is Democrats with a very few exceptions. Yes, 2176 02:08:51,630 --> 02:08:56,310 sir. Damn, they're the ones that are being engaged by the 2177 02:08:56,310 --> 02:09:01,530 political class to help propagate this slave mentality. 2178 02:09:01,590 --> 02:09:09,030 This Pavlovian response.

Exactly. Okay, um, couple 2305 02:18:11,400 --> 02:18:16,200 of if Russia clips maybe I have 2306 02:18:16,380 --> 02:18:19,680 before that I want to mention something. Okay, so I'm holding 2307 02:18:19,680 --> 02:18:26,430 in my hand the 18 hole 18 eggs, carton of Alfresco pasture 2308 02:18:26,430 --> 02:18:33,690 raised. Vital farms, medium grade under open skies on green 2309 02:18:33,690 --> 02:18:37,830 grass grass made with fresh air freedom to forage outdoors, 2310 02:18:37,830 --> 02:18:44,250 you're around these eggs. So I bought at Grocery Outlet and 2311 02:18:45,090 --> 02:18:47,430 looks like a good day I try them. They seem to be okay. 2312 02:18:47,430 --> 02:18:50,820 They're good. Good enough. I'm not great. But they're decent. 2313 02:18:50,940 --> 02:18:54,510 But they're from Austin. Are you familiar with the chicken farms 2314 02:18:54,510 --> 02:18:58,710 in Austin, Texas? Yes. Yes, apparently this is one of them. 2315 02:18:58,920 --> 02:19:03,930 And I'm thinking what is it cost to ship? A couple of dozen eggs 2316 02:19:03,930 --> 02:19:09,660 or 18 eggs in this case, from Austin to Oakland or wherever 2317 02:19:09,660 --> 02:19:13,320 the grocery outlets are? I mean, it's that seems like a very 2318 02:19:13,320 --> 02:19:15,300 counterproductive situation. 2319 02:19:15,360 --> 02:19:17,700 Instead of just getting some local live local eggs from 2320 02:19:17,700 --> 02:19:20,550 chicken. Yeah, or from the backyard if you have your own 2321 02:19:20,550 --> 02:19:23,490 chickens. Now. These are supposed to be organic free 2322 02:19:23,490 --> 02:19:24,870 range happy chickens, 2323 02:19:24,990 --> 02:19:28,260 ethical, ethical, ethical, ethical 2324 02:19:28,290 --> 02:19:29,130 eggs.

I know exactly how they're very nice people. When you go to 2328 02:19:40,560 --> 02:19:45,030 get eggs, white This is farmer Chris. He's a member farmer 2329 02:19:45,030 --> 02:19:45,480 Chris. 2330 02:19:45,900 --> 02:19:48,600 This seems like a pretty big operation for farmer Chris. 2331 02:19:49,140 --> 02:19:52,980 The EBIT. Farmer Chris sold to the big operation. 2332 02:19:53,670 --> 02:19:55,920 Oh, yeah. Vital Farms is that I don't 2333 02:19:55,920 --> 02:19:58,830 know if that's the name and right there and when you buy the 2334 02:19:58,830 --> 02:20:02,520 eggs he has pictures a whole picture book of the chickens 2335 02:20:02,520 --> 02:20:03,300 like all happy. 2336 02:20:06,150 --> 02:20:06,780 Walking around. I'm 2337 02:20:06,780 --> 02:20:09,630 happy I'm in Austin. I'm happy. I'm a happy Chair 2338 02:20:10,170 --> 02:20:14,610 of forage outdoors year round, made with fresh air and 2339 02:20:14,610 --> 02:20:18,810 sunshine. And since it's very well good, yummy, but tended by 2340 02:20:18,810 --> 02:20:22,380 hand on family farms across America. So these things these 2341 02:20:22,380 --> 02:20:27,120 days come from these vital farms as a as a congregate or 2342 02:20:27,120 --> 02:20:30,480 somebody's buying up these little farmers.

Are you going to to 2351 02:20:52,620 --> 02:20:53,670 Washington 2352 02:20:53,850 --> 02:20:56,490 know everybody's all spread out on Christmas? Are we having our 2353 02:20:56,490 --> 02:21:02,220 Christmas here at the house? On like the 29th? Or the 30th? Oh, 2354 02:21:02,520 --> 02:21:04,980 and what do you what I, by the way, have been advocating this 2355 02:21:04,980 --> 02:21:09,840 for years, which is pushing off Christmas. Because of one two 2356 02:21:09,840 --> 02:21:12,810 reasons. One, I'm cheap. And you can right after Christmas, you 2357 02:21:12,810 --> 02:21:16,620 can go to the all this Boxing Day and all these places that 2358 02:21:16,620 --> 02:21:19,110 are selling stuff at a deep discount and you could buy a 2359 02:21:19,110 --> 02:21:22,980 bunch of last minute gifts at a good deal. And then you have 2360 02:21:22,980 --> 02:21:25,830 your Christmas where there's not a big rush and get a turkey 2361 02:21:25,830 --> 02:21:28,200 cheaper. I'll cook a turkey or goose 2362 02:21:28,800 --> 02:21:31,260 and Mr. Scrooge man. 2363 02:21:31,680 --> 02:21:34,830 No, I'm not. I'm not saying it's just for that. But it's like 2364 02:21:34,860 --> 02:21:37,320 you're gonna do it. Literally. You don't have to be everything 2365 02:21:37,320 --> 02:21:40,050 has to be on the day or we got to do this on the day. Oh, it's 2366 02:21:40,050 --> 02:21:42,120 my birthday. It's got to be on the day. And I'm not a big 2367 02:21:42,120 --> 02:21:45,810 believer. I don't I'm not buying that. It's not a scrooge thing 2368 02:21:45,810 --> 02:21:49,740 but as a benefit. I see it as a scrooge thing. Yes. 2369 02:21:50,220 --> 02:21:52,680 We're going to Chicago. Yeah, I 2370 02:21:52,680 --> 02:21:54,060 heard that. Well, I'm 2371 02:21:54,060 --> 02:21:56,160 telling you I'm telling the whole audience just 2372 02:21:56,970 --> 02:21:59,400 saying I heard you go to Chicago. Yeah. Going to Chicago. 2373 02:21:59,430 --> 02:22:05,310 And so it's a Tina's family is like like 18 sisters. The her 2374 02:22:05,310 --> 02:22:10,200 mom, her girls, there's gonna be Girls Night Out is gonna be a 2375 02:22:10,200 --> 02:22:12,180 whole bunch of women. And I think three dudes 2376 02:22:12,210 --> 02:22:16,650 like you guys are screwed over. We are totally screwed. But what 2377 02:22:17,100 --> 02:22:18,060 word in edgewise 2378 02:22:18,090 --> 02:22:22,050 What the hell was going on with with Chicago though? Didn't know 2379 02:22:22,050 --> 02:22:27,210 what? This is the Cook County Commissioner Cook County. That's 2380 02:22:27,210 --> 02:22:32,610 in Chicago. I take it in Cook County in Chicago. He's the Cook 2381 02:22:32,610 --> 02:22:35,160 County Commissioner Richard, you live in Chicago? Didn't you as a 2382 02:22:35,160 --> 02:22:35,430 kid? 2383 02:22:35,460 --> 02:22:39,810 Oh, yeah. I was a kid. I lived in Chicago, Chicago, Chicago. 2384 02:22:39,840 --> 02:22:42,900 So he was interviewed at the airport on his way to 2385 02:22:42,900 --> 02:22:44,010 Washington, DC. 2386 02:22:44,040 --> 02:22:46,950 Well, we're headed to the United Nations to meet with the 2387 02:22:46,950 --> 02:22:51,210 Assistant Secretary General to talk about the violence in 2388 02:22:51,210 --> 02:22:55,140 Chicago to gun violence in particular, the bloodshed that's 2389 02:22:55,140 --> 02:22:59,040 taking place in too many of our communities like Austin, West 2390 02:22:59,040 --> 02:23:02,850 Garfield Park, North Mondale, places like that, where we've 2391 02:23:02,850 --> 02:23:06,630 just seen horrific levels of shootings and that sort of 2392 02:23:06,630 --> 02:23:10,860 thing. And so I'm hoping to appeal to the UN to actually 2393 02:23:10,860 --> 02:23:15,990 come to Chicago, and meet with victims of violence, and maybe 2394 02:23:15,990 --> 02:23:19,740 even possibly help out in terms of peacekeeping efforts. 2395 02:23:20,520 --> 02:23:25,830 Blue Helmets in Chicago, last Yes, yes, yes, he's serious. He 2396 02:23:25,830 --> 02:23:29,190 wants the peacekeeping corps in Chicago, it's that bad. He wants 2397 02:23:29,190 --> 02:23:32,130 the blue helmets, Muslims of violence. 2398 02:23:33,090 --> 02:23:36,960 Wait, so we can expect a cholera outbreak in Chicago, because 2399 02:23:36,960 --> 02:23:39,480 you'll be in Chicago, you're going to be pooping, and 2400 02:23:39,480 --> 02:23:43,620 maybe even possibly help out in terms of peacekeeping efforts. 2401 02:23:43,950 --> 02:23:47,490 Because I think it's so critical for us to make sure that these 2402 02:23:47,490 --> 02:23:50,940 neighborhoods are safe. Quite frankly, we failed the people of 2403 02:23:50,940 --> 02:23:54,630 Chicago in many instances in these communities, because we 2404 02:23:54,630 --> 02:23:58,320 failed to protect them from the violence. I will also say this, 2405 02:23:58,320 --> 02:24:03,210 that there is a quiet genocide taking place. In too many of our 2406 02:24:03,210 --> 02:24:07,680 communities. 80% of those who are being killed by gun violence 2407 02:24:07,680 --> 02:24:11,640 are African American, often killed at the hands of another 2408 02:24:11,640 --> 02:24:15,630 African American. And so we protect these population groups, 2409 02:24:15,630 --> 02:24:18,360 and that's what the United Nations does. They're a 2410 02:24:18,360 --> 02:24:22,350 peacekeeping force. They know all about keeping the peace and 2411 02:24:22,350 --> 02:24:25,230 so we're hopeful that they'll they'll hear our appeal. 2412 02:24:26,100 --> 02:24:28,050 Wow. Wow. 2413 02:24:29,610 --> 02:24:31,560 How about that? Blue Helmets 2414 02:24:31,560 --> 02:24:34,230 and die get you desert Clip of the Day? 2415 02:24:34,230 --> 02:24:40,380 I knew I was gonna do it. I knew I had to hold on to it for two 2416 02:24:40,380 --> 02:24:45,720 hours. It was hard. Well, that would be fantastic. 2417 02:24:45,870 --> 02:24:49,920 I think it'd be fantastic too. I wonder what a humiliation for 2418 02:24:49,920 --> 02:24:53,220 the United States. This is just another way to humiliate Trump. 2419 02:24:57,540 --> 02:25:00,900 Yeah, man, take care of our own states even though it's a 2420 02:25:00,900 --> 02:25:03,840 democratic state, completely, it wouldn't work out for the 2421 02:25:03,840 --> 02:25:08,070 Democrats. But we had to bring the UN into Chicago to do 2422 02:25:08,070 --> 02:25:11,100 peacekeeping. And we're gonna it's never gonna happen, by the 2423 02:25:11,100 --> 02:25:14,040 way, so we can just and I believe our dreams behind I 2424 02:25:14,040 --> 02:25:14,460 believe 2425 02:25:14,460 --> 02:25:17,760 he used the term genocide specifically because that 2426 02:25:17,760 --> 02:25:23,610 triggers the genocide. It Yeah, the the G word. Genocide is 2427 02:25:23,610 --> 02:25:27,870 not when the same ethnic groups killed themselves. Oh, it's 2428 02:25:27,870 --> 02:25:30,750 incorrect, but he's using it because he wants to get the blue 2429 02:25:30,750 --> 02:25:34,470 helmets on the street. Can you imagine? That'd be great. But we 2430 02:25:34,470 --> 02:25:39,390 should have the International. Yeah, blue helmets. So we should 2431 02:25:39,390 --> 02:25:41,820 have you know, guys from Sri Lanka, the ones with the 2432 02:25:41,820 --> 02:25:45,300 cholera, we should have, you know, collar against Japanese 2433 02:25:45,300 --> 02:25:48,300 and it'd be funny. Little Japanese guys with blue helmets 2434 02:25:48,300 --> 02:25:50,700 protecting you in the streets of Chicago? Wow. 2435 02:25:52,800 --> 02:25:56,310 Yeah, well, again, it's nice to think that it would could 2436 02:25:56,310 --> 02:26:00,480 happen, but it's not possible. Even possible. 2437 02:26:00,509 --> 02:26:04,679 Let's talk about some hate here. Let me see. Oh, pate good to 2438 02:26:04,949 --> 02:26:07,589 good newsletter. And it's interesting that you 2439 02:26:07,589 --> 02:26:11,219 deconstructed these seven words, because I hear this as I wanted 2440 02:26:11,219 --> 02:26:16,169 to do that. We didn't get to it on Sunday show. Because when I 2441 02:26:16,169 --> 02:26:18,929 read the seven words, I had the exact same trigger that you 2442 02:26:18,929 --> 02:26:21,449 spoke of in the newsletters, like George Carlin said the 2443 02:26:21,479 --> 02:26:26,189 seven words you can't say on television. So very masterfully 2444 02:26:26,189 --> 02:26:32,039 chosen by WaPo. Because, well, why don't you just briefly tell 2445 02:26:32,039 --> 02:26:34,529 the story, and then I'll play the Seth Meyers bit where he 2446 02:26:34,529 --> 02:26:35,579 goes off on it. 2447 02:26:35,670 --> 02:26:39,900 Yeah, the Washington Post in what appears to be a very bogus 2448 02:26:39,900 --> 02:26:42,090 story, according to at least the National Review, and other 2449 02:26:42,090 --> 02:26:44,550 people have looked at it and tried to find some documentation 2450 02:26:44,550 --> 02:26:49,620 for this made the claim that how HHS Health and Human Services 2451 02:26:49,860 --> 02:26:54,210 have an edict or a memo or something where they can't use 2452 02:26:54,240 --> 02:26:58,260 seven words. Yeah. And the seven words includes I don't know if 2453 02:26:58,470 --> 02:27:02,820 you have the list in front of you, but transgender science and 2454 02:27:02,820 --> 02:27:06,480 data science, so science based evidence basing, like just all 2455 02:27:06,480 --> 02:27:08,550 these trigger words that are just got nothing to do with 2456 02:27:08,550 --> 02:27:12,450 anything that nobody would ever want people not to use, but they 2457 02:27:12,450 --> 02:27:14,280 made this claim that they're wanting to use it. Everybody 2458 02:27:14,280 --> 02:27:16,830 read this, my even my Mimi, I talked to her about it. And she 2459 02:27:16,830 --> 02:27:19,230 says, oh, oh, that was a bogus story. I said, Yeah. You didn't 2460 02:27:19,230 --> 02:27:22,980 know that. Did you? Why would you? Watch this Facebook? 2461 02:27:23,010 --> 02:27:25,530 So she watched his Facebook? Yes. That's 2462 02:27:26,460 --> 02:27:30,120 what you're doing. You're watching it. So turns out to be 2463 02:27:30,120 --> 02:27:32,670 bullcrap. And then I deconstructed and the thing that 2464 02:27:32,670 --> 02:27:36,180 triggered me when did they get deconstruction was the seven, 2465 02:27:36,390 --> 02:27:40,110 the seven to seven triggers the Yes, George Carlin bit about the 2466 02:27:40,110 --> 02:27:43,950 seven words a day FCC won't let you use. And I believe the whole 2467 02:27:43,950 --> 02:27:48,480 thing was structured for that in mind. Why seven completely 2468 02:27:48,510 --> 02:27:51,990 well to trigger and just the trigger just calling back to the 2469 02:27:52,020 --> 02:27:56,550 to using computers? In the classroom? The I don't know. 2470 02:27:56,640 --> 02:27:59,400 Yeah, I'm sure you've heard this all around. But kids today are 2471 02:27:59,400 --> 02:28:03,180 triggered, and they speak about being triggered. And that is all 2472 02:28:03,180 --> 02:28:09,540 created by this Pavlovian way of learning, or teaching, I should 2473 02:28:09,540 --> 02:28:13,650 say, if they're really learning, and the kids are, I believe, 2474 02:28:14,730 --> 02:28:18,900 taught to be to be out to be open and ready for certain 2475 02:28:18,900 --> 02:28:21,870 triggers that then bomb then this information that's stored 2476 02:28:21,870 --> 02:28:24,870 in them. But it's white privilege, less racist, moving 2477 02:28:24,870 --> 02:28:28,650 these sections when it's all programmed, 2478 02:28:29,310 --> 02:28:30,270 marked the time. 2479 02:28:31,290 --> 02:28:35,340 Because when I was growing up, when I was a kid, we didn't get 2480 02:28:35,340 --> 02:28:41,940 triggered. We got triggered. Seriously, we didn't even use 2481 02:28:41,940 --> 02:28:42,060 the 2482 02:28:42,060 --> 02:28:45,600 word is better than Chevy or Chevy's better than Ford. You 2483 02:28:45,600 --> 02:28:45,900 have these 2484 02:28:45,900 --> 02:28:48,630 two groups. Now, that would be a trigger, but that wasn't taught 2485 02:28:48,630 --> 02:28:49,470 in class. 2486 02:28:49,740 --> 02:28:53,700 No, it's just like a natural thing. So are the baseball team 2487 02:28:53,700 --> 02:28:54,360 you liked? 2488 02:28:54,480 --> 02:28:58,350 And I have to be honest, I mean, I sometimes try and see if I can 2489 02:28:58,350 --> 02:29:01,980 find the triggers. And it's quite easy. You know, you can 2490 02:29:02,010 --> 02:29:05,310 you can say things to the kids and they that you can, you can 2491 02:29:05,310 --> 02:29:07,560 get them going real quick. You should try it next time. They're 2492 02:29:07,560 --> 02:29:08,190 over for dinner. 2493 02:29:08,490 --> 02:29:09,510 I do it all the time. I 2494 02:29:09,510 --> 02:29:11,730 knew it. I knew it. What's your favorite? 2495 02:29:12,270 --> 02:29:14,790 I don't know if I have a favorite I can come up with 2496 02:29:14,790 --> 02:29:17,070 because this is something that's spur of the moment. So I can't 2497 02:29:17,070 --> 02:29:19,800 tell you but what I'll make a note next time I do it. I'll let 2498 02:29:19,800 --> 02:29:20,460 you know on the show. 2499 02:29:20,460 --> 02:29:24,120 Because I I'd like to know if it's is it just is it a phrase a 2500 02:29:24,120 --> 02:29:25,860 concept or just a word? 2501 02:29:27,120 --> 02:29:29,070 Yeah, I know words work. Yeah. 2502 02:29:29,070 --> 02:29:31,740 So I want to have the seven trigger words have no agenda, 2503 02:29:32,040 --> 02:29:35,580 seven trigger words, that you can just throw in willy nilly, 2504 02:29:35,910 --> 02:29:39,120 just for a bad idea. Or maybe some of our listeners can come 2505 02:29:39,120 --> 02:29:41,970 up with some. You have to have to be true trigger words. In 2506 02:29:41,970 --> 02:29:44,640 other words, not just some annoying word, but a word that 2507 02:29:44,640 --> 02:29:48,210 actually will get the dimension be people starting to chatter. 2508 02:29:48,360 --> 02:29:51,870 Oh, you can't say that. Right. Most of it's that you can't say 2509 02:29:51,870 --> 02:29:56,310 that. You can say why? You can't say that. Why can't say it's not 2510 02:29:56,310 --> 02:29:59,130 a cuss word. I just know the lady in the room that I'm 2511 02:29:59,700 --> 02:30:02,850 worried About Yeah, it's just words is like these these random 2512 02:30:02,850 --> 02:30:03,870 words. Well remember, 2513 02:30:03,900 --> 02:30:08,340 these words are used to silence your voice on Twitter. It's very 2514 02:30:08,340 --> 02:30:10,770 evil words, they silence people's voices is 2515 02:30:10,770 --> 02:30:15,600 one of the ones that you can use for the kids is, you have to be 2516 02:30:15,630 --> 02:30:19,320 judicious when you use it. Which reminds me of the joke done by 2517 02:30:19,320 --> 02:30:21,990 Silverman. And that word is Chinaman. 2518 02:30:22,140 --> 02:30:23,190 Oh, good one. 2519 02:30:24,450 --> 02:30:26,130 Another word is moist. 2520 02:30:27,030 --> 02:30:30,960 I don't think so well, but moist story about moist. People hate 2521 02:30:30,960 --> 02:30:35,040 the word moist. But at women in particular, can stand the word 2522 02:30:35,040 --> 02:30:38,430 moist. And not believing that this is a real trigger word. I 2523 02:30:38,430 --> 02:30:41,670 think if you say Chinamen Chinaman which by the way, most 2524 02:30:41,670 --> 02:30:45,120 Chinese aren't, aren't offended by. But if you just say it to 2525 02:30:45,120 --> 02:30:49,650 the Chinese, to the kids, they think you're either an old fart, 2526 02:30:49,950 --> 02:30:54,750 or it's like, I'm reminded the Carson Show this this woman 2527 02:30:54,960 --> 02:30:57,450 actually knows on The Larry Sanders Show is that was the 2528 02:30:57,450 --> 02:31:01,680 mockery of the of the Carson Show where this woman is they 2529 02:31:01,680 --> 02:31:04,620 sit this guy down and he starts talking about I'm glad to see 2530 02:31:04,620 --> 02:31:08,040 have a lot of colored work in here. Oh, and he went on and on 2531 02:31:08,040 --> 02:31:11,820 about the colored and they're glad they're making. So that's 2532 02:31:11,850 --> 02:31:14,880 probably a trigger word colored colored colored. Yeah, sorry. 2533 02:31:14,880 --> 02:31:18,210 It's harder to work into a conversation but stuff like 2534 02:31:18,210 --> 02:31:20,670 that. Yeah, to know that kids go crazy. Yeah. 2535 02:31:21,270 --> 02:31:25,830 It's fun. It's fun to do. Yeah, I'm not gonna play the jingle. 2536 02:31:25,830 --> 02:31:29,610 But I did want to make note of the planned obsolescence that 2537 02:31:29,610 --> 02:31:34,260 Apple has been doing and it hit me finally understand what their 2538 02:31:34,260 --> 02:31:35,880 gap with their Gambit is. 2539 02:31:37,950 --> 02:31:39,390 Make money? Yeah, 2540 02:31:39,420 --> 02:31:46,050 well, they've Geekbench I think goes Geekbench discovered that 2541 02:31:46,050 --> 02:31:49,860 there are you have to there are three settings for battery and 2542 02:31:49,860 --> 02:31:56,940 power usage in the iPhone. And the two are full speed and then 2543 02:31:56,940 --> 02:32:00,000 you have reduced which you can set yourself if your battery's 2544 02:32:00,000 --> 02:32:02,280 low, it will say hey, do you want to go into conservation 2545 02:32:02,280 --> 02:32:08,070 mode? Sure. But if you recall, when the six came out, and I had 2546 02:32:08,070 --> 02:32:11,700 this Tina had this, the your phone? Yeah, when the battery 2547 02:32:11,700 --> 02:32:17,730 would get like 33% Perhaps, then it would reboot. It would reboot 2548 02:32:17,730 --> 02:32:22,620 and be all kinds of problems. And essentially, we know we now 2549 02:32:22,620 --> 02:32:27,090 know that the battery was failing. And the phone decided 2550 02:32:27,090 --> 02:32:31,470 then to reboot. So Apple issued an iOS update. And everyone was 2551 02:32:31,470 --> 02:32:36,120 fixed. Except everyone's phone was kind of slower, particularly 2552 02:32:36,120 --> 02:32:40,830 once the next version of iOS came out. Because their solution 2553 02:32:41,070 --> 02:32:45,120 to fixing the battery which was clearly substandard, and in some 2554 02:32:45,300 --> 02:32:50,160 people's phones, was to just reduce the power, reduce the 2555 02:32:50,160 --> 02:32:52,710 processing power of the phone and say hey, there you go your 2556 02:32:52,710 --> 02:32:56,010 fix. Well, essentially you went back to an iPhone for power. 2557 02:32:57,270 --> 02:33:00,780 Yeah. Which is, which is that very effectively used each time 2558 02:33:00,780 --> 02:33:05,250 a new the new Oh, you want the new phone with a new iOS? Your 2559 02:33:05,250 --> 02:33:08,070 old phone is just not gonna cut it. It's not gonna run. It's not 2560 02:33:08,070 --> 02:33:10,890 gonna it's gonna run slow making you believe you need to get a 2561 02:33:10,890 --> 02:33:13,560 new phone. Yeah, yeah. Well, 2562 02:33:14,100 --> 02:33:15,390 shocker to anybody. 2563 02:33:17,460 --> 02:33:19,890 That Apple did this on purpose. Yeah, I'm a little shocked by 2564 02:33:19,890 --> 02:33:24,510 it. Yeah. Okay, I'm not surprised that it's happening. 2565 02:33:24,720 --> 02:33:29,040 But Apple, you'd think that they would be a little more. What's 2566 02:33:29,040 --> 02:33:29,580 the word? 2567 02:33:30,390 --> 02:33:37,950 Ethical? Like the chickens. Yeah, outdoors. Who would die 2568 02:33:37,980 --> 02:33:38,160 iron. 2569 02:33:38,850 --> 02:33:41,400 You don't find this to be an outrage that they did. They did 2570 02:33:41,400 --> 02:33:43,230 this. Well, 2571 02:33:43,230 --> 02:33:47,700 I never owned an iPhone. Personally, I've always been 2572 02:33:47,700 --> 02:33:52,170 with the androids. Yeah. And I'm not outraged because I kept that 2573 02:33:52,170 --> 02:33:59,010 makes sense to me. What the heck, I'm giving you the 2574 02:33:59,010 --> 02:34:01,980 outrage. You're gonna hear my outrage about Apple phones. And 2575 02:34:01,980 --> 02:34:04,740 I always like to give people bad time about it. Yeah, always 2576 02:34:04,740 --> 02:34:06,780 good. You know, anyone who has an iPhone, I always say the same 2577 02:34:06,780 --> 02:34:09,810 thing to me say, oh, yeah, the guy's having problems with so 2578 02:34:09,810 --> 02:34:12,870 I'll just just Yeah, yeah, we'll just take the battery out and 2579 02:34:12,870 --> 02:34:15,000 it'll reboot. It'll be in perfect shape. Just do that. 2580 02:34:15,960 --> 02:34:19,800 Yeah, exactly. Although Samsung now is suffering from the same 2581 02:34:19,800 --> 02:34:22,590 problem, but at least you can change. Oh, you can't change the 2582 02:34:22,590 --> 02:34:23,730 battery. And the new 2583 02:34:23,730 --> 02:34:29,130 ones. You can't take the back off. I had dinner. My old 2584 02:34:29,130 --> 02:34:32,700 clunker the old Nexus galaxy that I have you can do back pops 2585 02:34:32,700 --> 02:34:34,740 right off and change the battery. Put a new one in our 2586 02:34:34,740 --> 02:34:37,890 better battery. You can buy a better battery on Amazon. Stick 2587 02:34:37,890 --> 02:34:39,270 that in there. You're in good shape. 2588 02:34:39,330 --> 02:34:42,570 Yeah. Yeah, I can't wait. I'm waiting for the Microsoft 2589 02:34:42,570 --> 02:34:44,640 Surface Phone. I'm ready. 2590 02:34:45,390 --> 02:34:49,110 Well, if they're in this they're idiots. It's got to be in the 2591 02:34:49,110 --> 02:34:49,740 pipeline. 2592 02:34:49,920 --> 02:34:52,530 They are so counter-culture. I'm expecting they'll actually do 2593 02:34:52,530 --> 02:34:57,810 it. Yeah, well, I hope we have. This is a fun report. I think 2594 02:34:57,810 --> 02:35:02,370 this was this may be TMZ So they have the Hall of Presidents of 2595 02:35:02,370 --> 02:35:06,300 Disneyland. Yeah, with the new Trump. Yeah. And the whole of 2596 02:35:06,300 --> 02:35:09,660 presidents. If you've never been to Disneyland, it's you have to 2597 02:35:09,660 --> 02:35:11,670 see at least once it's animatronics. 2598 02:35:12,060 --> 02:35:14,880 Yes, it's actually worth what it is. You know, it's a little 2599 02:35:14,880 --> 02:35:19,830 lecture about the presidency and the history and it's yeah, it's 2600 02:35:19,830 --> 02:35:22,920 corny. It's in a big theater and all these guys, it's corny as 2601 02:35:24,510 --> 02:35:28,530 in these days of movies, where you know, you have robots that 2602 02:35:28,530 --> 02:35:31,170 are fantastic in the movie, and they could do all kinds of cool 2603 02:35:31,170 --> 02:35:34,860 stuff. When you see an actual they call it animatronics. When 2604 02:35:34,860 --> 02:35:37,650 you see an actual robot that Disney is saying, Hey, this is 2605 02:35:37,650 --> 02:35:42,030 our state of the art manage shit and the Trump thing that trumps 2606 02:35:42,060 --> 02:35:43,950 its, it doesn't even look like him. 2607 02:35:44,040 --> 02:35:48,420 It's Robo Trump, the Justice failed animatronic president and 2608 02:35:48,420 --> 02:35:50,190 it's getting lots of reaction. 2609 02:35:50,580 --> 02:35:54,030 Donald John Trump, do solemnly swear 2610 02:35:54,060 --> 02:35:56,940 the robot made its debut Monday at the Hall of Presidents 2611 02:35:56,940 --> 02:35:58,650 attraction in Disney World 2612 02:35:58,710 --> 02:36:02,850 is a privilege to serve as the President of the United States. 2613 02:36:02,940 --> 02:36:06,540 From a distance the robot can pass for the president. His 2614 02:36:06,540 --> 02:36:10,110 jacket is unbuttoned, just like the real deal, and his hands 2615 02:36:10,110 --> 02:36:13,830 movements are spot on. Disney says they use the latest 2616 02:36:13,830 --> 02:36:15,300 technology to enable more 2617 02:36:15,300 --> 02:36:19,410 color. Oh, no. Did you see this thing? Yeah, his hand movements 2618 02:36:19,410 --> 02:36:20,790 are not spot on. 2619 02:36:21,240 --> 02:36:23,130 No, and neither does he look like trouble. 2620 02:36:23,130 --> 02:36:25,140 That's, that's coming next year we'll 2621 02:36:25,140 --> 02:36:29,640 deal and his hands movements are spot on. Disney says they use 2622 02:36:29,640 --> 02:36:33,660 the latest technology to enable more lifelike movements. And 2623 02:36:33,660 --> 02:36:36,480 President Trump actually recorded the dialogue 2624 02:36:36,510 --> 02:36:40,860 to stand here among so many great leaders of our past and to 2625 02:36:40,860 --> 02:36:43,350 work on behalf of the American people. 2626 02:36:43,530 --> 02:36:47,130 But look closer, and you'll see there's little resemblance to 2627 02:36:47,130 --> 02:36:51,870 the commander in chief. Not even close goes one tweet. Some say 2628 02:36:51,870 --> 02:36:55,560 Robo Trump looks more like actor Jon Voight or the late Lloyd 2629 02:36:55,560 --> 02:37:00,000 Bridges. Or worse Chucky, the creepy doll that comes to life 2630 02:37:00,000 --> 02:37:04,290 in the horror movie child's play. Someone even thinks it 2631 02:37:04,290 --> 02:37:08,250 looks like a cross between Trump and Hillary Clinton. It kind of 2632 02:37:08,250 --> 02:37:10,860 looks like they were already making a Hillary then heard the 2633 02:37:10,860 --> 02:37:12,870 news and had to change it to a Trump 2634 02:37:16,680 --> 02:37:18,570 that I think that is it 2635 02:37:18,600 --> 02:37:21,420 worth the price of admission listening to that comma, because 2636 02:37:21,420 --> 02:37:23,400 I wouldn't have thought of that. But that's what it is. 2637 02:37:23,730 --> 02:37:24,660 Beautiful. Yeah, 2638 02:37:24,690 --> 02:37:28,350 they had Hillary all set up and good to go. And it's probably 2639 02:37:28,350 --> 02:37:31,110 her hand movements. I didn't even I didn't even think to go 2640 02:37:31,110 --> 02:37:35,610 look. But this is their state of the art. That's your state of 2641 02:37:35,610 --> 02:37:39,870 the art. It's horrible. Yeah, I mean, it was the thing that you 2642 02:37:39,870 --> 02:37:43,230 know, when I was a kid you going like, okay, and then as a 2643 02:37:43,230 --> 02:37:43,950 teenager, like 2644 02:37:44,010 --> 02:37:48,300 I should go stone. Yeah, yeah, going to that stone would be the 2645 02:37:48,300 --> 02:37:51,090 best best way to go. I agree. 2646 02:37:51,540 --> 02:37:55,020 Hey, I got one more a hate to hate Trump clip. This is 2647 02:37:55,020 --> 02:37:57,300 regarding the Russia investigation, which we haven't 2648 02:37:57,300 --> 02:38:01,740 touched on today. Because what do we have we have secret? These 2649 02:38:01,770 --> 02:38:06,780 McCade and stroke. Who I still am not sure aren't the same guy. 2650 02:38:08,670 --> 02:38:13,920 The are struck struck stroke struck, struck, struck struck 2651 02:38:13,920 --> 02:38:19,650 scrotum. They're they're being interviewed behind closed doors. 2652 02:38:20,490 --> 02:38:25,920 Yeah, there's no transparency in this. Terrible is the FBI. Yeah. 2653 02:38:25,980 --> 02:38:30,210 What can be so classified that he can't just answer these 2654 02:38:30,210 --> 02:38:32,490 questions in public and say, well, that's classified. I can't 2655 02:38:32,490 --> 02:38:32,820 answer. 2656 02:38:33,119 --> 02:38:34,289 Dress or maybe 2657 02:38:36,930 --> 02:38:41,760 Clapper was on CNN. What does he do in these days is he just uh, 2658 02:38:42,690 --> 02:38:46,020 he was a good gig is one of these analysts, but they won't 2659 02:38:46,020 --> 02:38:48,120 give it to him because he's just too dull. Well, 2660 02:38:48,150 --> 02:38:50,700 he tried to spice it up a bit. You were the president speech 2661 02:38:50,700 --> 02:38:53,880 today, he calls out Russia and China describes them as rival 2662 02:38:53,880 --> 02:38:57,360 powers, rival powers to the US but also says he wants to build 2663 02:38:57,360 --> 02:39:00,780 a great partnership with them and then had all this friendly 2664 02:39:00,810 --> 02:39:03,330 stuff to say about his phone calls with Vladimir Putin this 2665 02:39:03,330 --> 02:39:04,800 week. Is that a contradictory message? 2666 02:39:05,160 --> 02:39:10,530 Well, it is to me, I think this past weekend is illustrative of 2667 02:39:10,800 --> 02:39:15,540 what a great case officer Vladimir Putin is. He knows how 2668 02:39:15,540 --> 02:39:18,300 to handle an asset. And that's what he's doing with the 2669 02:39:18,300 --> 02:39:18,810 President. 2670 02:39:19,529 --> 02:39:21,899 You're saying that Russia is handling President Trump as an 2671 02:39:21,899 --> 02:39:22,769 asset? That's, 2672 02:39:23,039 --> 02:39:27,929 that seems to be the that's the appearance to me. So, you know, 2673 02:39:27,929 --> 02:39:31,529 we've shared intelligence with the Russians. For a long time 2674 02:39:31,529 --> 02:39:34,619 we've we've always done that all of my experience with them has 2675 02:39:34,619 --> 02:39:37,949 been pretty much a one way street, where we provide them 2676 02:39:38,219 --> 02:39:40,079 intelligence and we don't get much back. 2677 02:39:40,140 --> 02:39:42,180 I just want to be clear here though. You're saying that 2678 02:39:42,180 --> 02:39:46,350 Russia is treating the president United States as an asset I'm 2679 02:39:46,350 --> 02:39:47,520 saying this figuratively, 2680 02:39:47,550 --> 02:39:53,490 I think, okay. Or Putin's background? He's a KGB officer. 2681 02:39:54,000 --> 02:39:59,760 That's what they do. They recruit assets. And I think some 2682 02:39:59,760 --> 02:40:02,760 of that had experience and instincts of Putin has come into 2683 02:40:02,760 --> 02:40:10,500 play here. And his managing a pretty important account for him 2684 02:40:10,500 --> 02:40:14,130 if I could use that term with with our president, 2685 02:40:14,430 --> 02:40:18,720 this guy is an idiot. That is slander. That's very 2686 02:40:18,720 --> 02:40:21,720 disrespectful for a guy that was that high up in the government. 2687 02:40:22,230 --> 02:40:25,770 Well, it's very disrespect. He's a liar. MSNBC will be on the 2688 02:40:25,770 --> 02:40:27,450 phone tomorrow. Let's hire this guy 2689 02:40:28,560 --> 02:40:32,790 is a liar. Just a liar. We know he lied. He lied. He lied to 2690 02:40:33,330 --> 02:40:35,370 Congress in jail. He lied. 2691 02:40:37,020 --> 02:40:39,690 It's where'd you get that? CNBC? 2692 02:40:40,110 --> 02:40:43,380 No, that's CNN, CNN. That was a cost of Jim Acosta. 2693 02:40:44,070 --> 02:40:51,990 Oh, because yeah, he that's his game. See, I only have one left, 2694 02:40:51,990 --> 02:40:55,590 and then I'm done. Okay, man, I got a couple I can play but only 2695 02:40:55,710 --> 02:40:56,160 see what you 2696 02:40:56,160 --> 02:40:59,640 got. Let's see if it pans out in anything. 2697 02:41:00,420 --> 02:41:03,960 Well, I got the Muller Muller thing. Muller, 2698 02:41:04,140 --> 02:41:09,000 is it Muller Muller, or as we say in Texas, Miller. I never 2699 02:41:09,000 --> 02:41:12,090 heard Miller, you know, in Texas, Muller is pronounced 2700 02:41:12,090 --> 02:41:13,860 Miller. Well, that's 2701 02:41:13,860 --> 02:41:18,030 interesting to me. No, no, really. That's good. Let's do 2702 02:41:18,030 --> 02:41:22,980 this one. This is the Muller fire or not fire. The Don Jr. 2703 02:41:23,010 --> 02:41:24,780 Kind of a side story here 2704 02:41:25,560 --> 02:41:27,840 to the developing headline late today on Capitol Hill, the 2705 02:41:27,840 --> 02:41:30,540 warning from the Senate floor involving the president and any 2706 02:41:30,540 --> 02:41:34,020 talk of firing Robert Muller, the top Democrat on the Senate 2707 02:41:34,170 --> 02:41:36,570 Intelligence Committee issuing a strong defense of Special 2708 02:41:36,570 --> 02:41:39,630 Counsel Robert Muller, against critics trying to shut down the 2709 02:41:39,630 --> 02:41:42,720 Russia investigation. And after recently being questioned for 2710 02:41:42,720 --> 02:41:47,160 nine hours Donald Trump Jr. Now suggesting there is a conspiracy 2711 02:41:47,280 --> 02:41:50,880 against his father. Here's ABC correspondent Pierre Thomas. 2712 02:41:51,210 --> 02:41:51,540 Tonight. 2713 02:41:52,800 --> 02:41:55,800 Tonight that warning from the top Democratic senator 2714 02:41:56,070 --> 02:41:58,680 investigating allegations of Russian collusion, 2715 02:41:58,859 --> 02:42:03,359 firing Mr. Muller, or any other of the top brass involved in 2716 02:42:03,359 --> 02:42:06,899 this investigation would not only call into question this 2717 02:42:06,899 --> 02:42:11,339 administration's commitment to the truth, but also to our most 2718 02:42:11,339 --> 02:42:13,139 basic concept, rule of law 2719 02:42:13,170 --> 02:42:16,920 Warner responding to mounting criticism of Special Counsel Bob 2720 02:42:16,920 --> 02:42:19,410 Muller, from some congressional Republicans. 2721 02:42:19,439 --> 02:42:22,319 I call on my Republican colleagues to join me in calling 2722 02:42:22,319 --> 02:42:24,809 for the firing of Bob Muller. And look, it's time for Muller 2723 02:42:24,809 --> 02:42:25,679 to put up or shut up. 2724 02:42:25,710 --> 02:42:28,800 President Trump asked this week if he's considering firing 2725 02:42:28,800 --> 02:42:31,650 Muller. No, I'm not. What else? 2726 02:42:33,390 --> 02:42:34,380 What are you surprised, 2727 02:42:34,470 --> 02:42:38,010 but on Tuesday, just days after Donald Trump Jr. spent more than 2728 02:42:38,010 --> 02:42:40,800 nine hours behind closed doors with congressional 2729 02:42:40,800 --> 02:42:44,040 investigators, the president's son openly talking about a 2730 02:42:44,040 --> 02:42:46,140 conspiracy against his father. 2731 02:42:46,349 --> 02:42:50,999 There is and there are people at the highest levels of government 2732 02:42:51,359 --> 02:42:54,779 that don't want to let America be America. 2733 02:42:55,349 --> 02:42:57,839 Pierre Thomas with us tonight from Washington and Pierre, we 2734 02:42:57,839 --> 02:43:00,749 heard President Trump say he's not firing Muller. So how does 2735 02:43:00,749 --> 02:43:03,449 Senator Warner explain his concern they're late today on 2736 02:43:03,449 --> 02:43:04,199 the Senate floor. 2737 02:43:04,859 --> 02:43:07,799 David Senator Warner says the President's track record is his 2738 02:43:07,799 --> 02:43:11,009 concern he puts on his college did not expect the President to 2739 02:43:11,009 --> 02:43:14,159 fire former FBI Director James Comey either 2740 02:43:14,850 --> 02:43:19,350 that was such a Twitter meme. Like, oh, I'm just gonna fire 2741 02:43:19,500 --> 02:43:24,570 Muller. Muller. He's gonna fire him. It came from nowhere. It 2742 02:43:24,570 --> 02:43:26,310 was fantasy fantasy. 2743 02:43:26,880 --> 02:43:30,540 Yes. It just got out of the blue. He's never had any 2744 02:43:30,540 --> 02:43:31,980 indication he's gonna fire me. Maybe 2745 02:43:31,980 --> 02:43:36,360 he could fire. He's not going to because the fall guy I'm just 2746 02:43:36,360 --> 02:43:40,470 going to reiterate is Jared. Jared is going to be 2747 02:43:40,470 --> 02:43:43,380 the fall guy. Jared could be the full guy and now you're right in 2748 02:43:43,380 --> 02:43:45,930 there. Good. Get him out of the out of the Oval Office Finally. 2749 02:43:46,380 --> 02:43:47,400 Might be a scheme. 2750 02:43:47,460 --> 02:43:52,110 Yeah, and with as Jared goes, so goes Ivanka. And I like Ivanka. 2751 02:43:52,140 --> 02:43:54,600 I like I like her doing, you know, like, First Lady type 2752 02:43:54,600 --> 02:43:57,450 stuff. That's okay. Yeah, I don't think we've never really 2753 02:43:57,450 --> 02:44:00,420 had a presidential daughter. I don't think while the President 2754 02:44:00,420 --> 02:44:03,540 was in office, because of course, the Kennedys, you know, 2755 02:44:03,540 --> 02:44:07,050 went on to do all kinds of great things. To them. Yeah, but no, 2756 02:44:07,140 --> 02:44:09,480 but they didn't do anything. They weren't out there. 2757 02:44:10,050 --> 02:44:14,970 They weren't hanging around doing policy. No. I don't know 2758 02:44:14,970 --> 02:44:17,400 of any. There may have been some of the 1800s I don't know. 2759 02:44:18,420 --> 02:44:24,420 What is this? Your copter story? 2760 02:44:24,539 --> 02:44:26,699 Yes, I was. I thought you'd be attracted to that. We'll play 2761 02:44:26,699 --> 02:44:28,799 that then. I'm done. Okay. Oh, Ma. 2762 02:44:30,450 --> 02:44:33,000 Now, where did it go? I just Oh, here it is. Self drive. Okay. 2763 02:44:33,360 --> 02:44:34,410 You just need setup. 2764 02:44:34,950 --> 02:44:39,990 No, just play. fighting wars may soon change forever. DAVID 2765 02:44:39,990 --> 02:44:42,840 MARTIN got to see a military helicopter that doesn't need a 2766 02:44:42,840 --> 02:44:45,480 pilot in the cockpits or on the ground. 2767 02:44:46,830 --> 02:44:50,700 The Huey helicopter has been around since Vietnam. But this 2768 02:44:50,700 --> 02:44:54,780 one could be the start of a revolution. It's spying itself. 2769 02:44:55,260 --> 02:44:58,740 That pilot in the cockpit is just a safety observer, keeping 2770 02:44:58,740 --> 02:45:02,820 his hands close to but Not on the control. The person telling 2771 02:45:02,820 --> 02:45:06,060 me he loved what to do was Marine Sergeant Deonte Jones. 2772 02:45:06,420 --> 02:45:08,970 Hilo comes in and request permission to land I would give 2773 02:45:08,970 --> 02:45:12,780 him permission to land when it's ready to lease. Or when I unload 2774 02:45:12,780 --> 02:45:15,300 all the stuff that I need, it'll ask me the permission to lease 2775 02:45:15,630 --> 02:45:18,030 I'll give permission to leave. And it's really just that 2776 02:45:18,030 --> 02:45:18,420 simple. 2777 02:45:18,510 --> 02:45:22,140 Sergeant Jones is not flying the healer. He has no joystick to 2778 02:45:22,140 --> 02:45:26,130 pilot it by remote control. Just a tablet to issue basic 2779 02:45:26,130 --> 02:45:29,430 instructions. no prior experience required 2780 02:45:29,850 --> 02:45:32,190 15 minutes training with the tablet, anybody can pick it up. 2781 02:45:32,220 --> 02:45:33,690 It's fairly easy. The Office of 2782 02:45:33,690 --> 02:45:37,020 Naval Research which developed the technology says it's placing 2783 02:45:37,020 --> 02:45:40,440 a large bet that autonomous aircraft can take the place of 2784 02:45:40,440 --> 02:45:43,200 humans. This is the flight computer that turns this 2785 02:45:43,200 --> 02:45:47,520 helicopter into a self flying aircraft took five years and $98 2786 02:45:47,520 --> 02:45:51,630 million to develop and it can be installed on any helicopter. 2787 02:45:53,070 --> 02:45:55,860 That pod on the nose is constantly scanning for 2788 02:45:55,860 --> 02:45:59,220 obstacles, warning the computer of hard to see hazards like 2789 02:45:59,220 --> 02:46:03,060 power lights. The initial concept is to use cell flying 2790 02:46:03,060 --> 02:46:07,110 helos to deliver supplies to Marines in the field. Bring up 2791 02:46:07,110 --> 02:46:11,760 pilots for other missions. This Vietnam era Huey will fly into 2792 02:46:11,760 --> 02:46:13,950 the future when it starts training with Marines in 2793 02:46:13,950 --> 02:46:19,290 California. This spring. Martin, CBS News Quantico goodwill 2794 02:46:19,890 --> 02:46:29,820 as a holder of a rotary aircraft license. This is stupid. Why? 2795 02:46:31,080 --> 02:46:36,570 Because, yes, you can have the thing take off and you know, in 2796 02:46:36,600 --> 02:46:39,870 optimum circumstances, optimum conditions, I don't believe 2797 02:46:39,870 --> 02:46:42,690 there is a computer that a flight computer that can really 2798 02:46:42,690 --> 02:46:46,620 do what you need to do in certain situations. Certainly 2799 02:46:46,620 --> 02:46:47,700 not in a helicopter. 2800 02:46:48,600 --> 02:46:54,270 I see another problem. This thing is all controlled by just 2801 02:46:54,270 --> 02:46:58,650 a couple of land take off buttons on a laptop, or now 2802 02:46:58,650 --> 02:47:02,010 laptop and a tablet. What happens if the tablets captured 2803 02:47:02,010 --> 02:47:02,760 by the enemy? 2804 02:47:03,330 --> 02:47:06,720 Yeah, there's a lot of different issues there. By just what are 2805 02:47:06,720 --> 02:47:09,600 the laptops, you got a bullet? What is the point and I will 2806 02:47:09,600 --> 02:47:12,600 just go back to the basics.
