Well, actually, I 16 00:01:03,300 --> 00:01:03,990 haven't I haven't. 17 00:01:04,020 --> 00:01:06,030 I haven't. I haven't. I haven't. I have.

Okay. Which one? Is it? 22 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:21,060 This would be? Sarah Sanders. It shouldn't say no. 23 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,210 You'd expect it to start with an ass. Yeah. And you would when 24 00:01:24,210 --> 00:01:31,050 you How about Gillibrand before Trump tweet? 25 00:01:31,530 --> 00:01:34,050 No, that's good. That's actually if you want to do the Gillibrand 26 00:01:34,050 --> 00:01:34,890 store, I'm going to mess with 27 00:01:35,550 --> 00:01:38,790 that. Let me let me do the April Ryan. Question. If we can't find 28 00:01:38,790 --> 00:01:39,240 it here. 29 00:01:41,310 --> 00:01:45,660 On here, I don't think so. Yes. Well, there's your clip. 30 00:01:45,870 --> 00:01:50,730 Jones tidbits. Trump no more slightly twisted analysis, more 31 00:01:50,730 --> 00:01:56,310 support from Trump now polar bear T vs. G. believable? Okay. 32 00:01:56,310 --> 00:01:56,430 I'll 33 00:01:56,430 --> 00:01:59,190 play mine then. Is that okay? Yeah, go ahead. 34 00:01:59,250 --> 00:02:01,440 April's children. Oh, 35 00:02:01,470 --> 00:02:04,770 and apology for the misunderstanding of the 36 00:02:04,770 --> 00:02:08,160 President's tweet this one. And because many, including Senator 37 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:12,780 thinks that it's about sexual innuendos. 38 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,210 I think all if your mind is in the gutter, would you have read 39 00:02:15,210 --> 00:02:19,080 it that way? And so no, Hunter? 40 00:02:19,709 --> 00:02:24,299 No, it's not. It's It was when he would said what he said, was 41 00:02:24,329 --> 00:02:26,849 open. And it was not mind. And it's obviously 42 00:02:26,850 --> 00:02:30,960 talking about political partisan games that people often play. 43 00:02:31,140 --> 00:02:33,690 And the broken system that he's talked about repeatedly, this 44 00:02:33,690 --> 00:02:36,240 isn't new. This isn't a new sentiments isn't new 45 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:40,650 terminology. He's used it several times before. As I said, 46 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,260 a few minutes ago. He's used it several times before, 47 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:48,780 referencing men of both both parties, in fact. And so I think 48 00:02:48,780 --> 00:02:51,810 that there, if you look back at the past comments he's made, it 49 00:02:51,810 --> 00:02:53,880 was very clear what his reference was Hunter. 50 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:58,830 So looking at this issue with the system, the President gave 51 00:02:58,830 --> 00:03:02,400 almost $8,000 to celebrate Gillibrand over the years. His 52 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:06,060 daughter also gave her $2,000 What specifically, did they get 53 00:03:06,060 --> 00:03:08,460 a blow job contribution? If she was, 54 00:03:08,700 --> 00:03:12,570 look, I think oftentimes what you do, you're getting access, a 55 00:03:12,570 --> 00:03:15,840 member of Congress will take your phone call, they'll take 56 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,900 your meeting. And if you're driving something as a 57 00:03:18,900 --> 00:03:21,540 businessman that the President may or may not have been driving 58 00:03:21,540 --> 00:03:25,140 at any particular point. You can talk to that individual about 59 00:03:25,140 --> 00:03:28,380 it, and sometimes they carry your water. That's the reason 60 00:03:28,380 --> 00:03:31,320 that we have a broken system. That's a reason that often 61 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,050 special interests control our government more than the people 62 00:03:34,050 --> 00:03:37,320 do. And that's one of the reasons that this President ran 63 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,620 to be president. It's one of the top reasons I think that he won 64 00:03:40,620 --> 00:03:42,930 and that he's sitting in the Oval Office today and Hillary 65 00:03:42,930 --> 00:03:45,600 Clinton's not because he couldn't be bought and everybody 66 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,120 know that knew that she could because they'd seen it time and 67 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:48,690 time again. 68 00:03:49,620 --> 00:03:52,830 And now it's time for your sexual harassment. 69 00:03:53,100 --> 00:03:55,920 Update. That's right, everybody, no agenda sexual harassment 70 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:56,490 update. 71 00:03:56,670 --> 00:03:59,160 Well, since we started with the gutter clip, if you're going to 72 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,190 have your mind in the gutter, yeah, I want you to listen to 73 00:04:02,190 --> 00:04:06,990 these two ISOs I have ISO of ISOs and ISO two but start with 74 00:04:06,990 --> 00:04:10,320 ISO ISOs. And with your mind in the gutter, tell me what's going 75 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:10,560 on. 76 00:04:11,010 --> 00:04:12,030 This is I've been old enough to 77 00:04:12,030 --> 00:04:15,570 to Alright, so this is Roy pants and I could notice just from 78 00:04:15,570 --> 00:04:20,580 picking it up. It's very soft, soft, right? Absolutely. Creamy. 79 00:04:21,570 --> 00:04:29,910 Melts in your mouth. Oh, my big thank you very much. 80 00:04:31,050 --> 00:04:35,580 Well, it's clearly a native ad for something. Play I saw two. 81 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:43,620 Mm hmm. Thank you very much. Wow, is that ever good? Well, 82 00:04:43,620 --> 00:04:44,340 what is this? 83 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,150 No, no, you got now you've given me no answer. 84 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:55,920 It's a quick clip from QVC you're selling fudge? Yeah, 85 00:04:55,980 --> 00:04:59,700 you know, I gotta tell you, I was doing some melts. I saw you 86 00:04:59,700 --> 00:05:04,200 know the To my timeline go crazy over something. The President 87 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:08,940 had tweeted I take a look at it. I chuckled because exactly these 88 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,990 these these duties will do anything. And that's how it 89 00:05:12,990 --> 00:05:16,110 works. But really, and then I was like, What is this slut 90 00:05:16,110 --> 00:05:18,690 shaming, all of a sudden I see people saying he slept. 91 00:05:19,470 --> 00:05:23,400 They've gone out of control. In fact, even good even this clip. 92 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,830 This is twig, Gwen Stefani. 93 00:05:26,430 --> 00:05:29,490 Oh, yeah, she's getting some some heat are going is 94 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,430 Well, I think the point she's making is that this is a very 95 00:05:32,430 --> 00:05:35,070 powerful moment in American history. And not only should 96 00:05:35,070 --> 00:05:38,070 women be heard, but they should be believed. And they should be 97 00:05:38,070 --> 00:05:40,920 investigated. So when you have these allegations come coming 98 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,530 forward. Those allegations should be investigated, just 99 00:05:43,530 --> 00:05:45,270 like you would invest any other allegation 100 00:05:45,420 --> 00:05:52,230 of fraud or Yeah. That was Kirsten Gillibrand. 101 00:05:53,070 --> 00:05:55,350 Yeah. Why does it say Gwen's Tiffani? 102 00:05:55,799 --> 00:05:58,709 I thought she sounds like her. Grandson. Fine. He's 103 00:05:58,710 --> 00:06:01,530 getting all kinds of heat because she's, she's friends 104 00:06:01,530 --> 00:06:06,600 with Chelsea Handler. And, you know, Gwen, you can't be with 105 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:10,200 the sexiest man alive, who's a country guy, a white bumpkin, 106 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,040 and then be hanging out with a Trump hater. That doesn't work. 107 00:06:15,090 --> 00:06:17,520 Just campaign, this will not stand. 108 00:06:18,479 --> 00:06:22,349 Let's go. But I doubt you'd be more impressed with the gwynn's 109 00:06:22,349 --> 00:06:26,579 to find the clip. But no, here is Gillibrand before the Trump 110 00:06:26,579 --> 00:06:28,739 tweet, and this is what get the whole thing started. 111 00:06:28,770 --> 00:06:32,670 President Trump should resign. These allegations are credible, 112 00:06:32,700 --> 00:06:36,720 they are numerous. I've heard these women's testimony, and 113 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,560 many of them are heartbreaking. And President Trump should 114 00:06:40,590 --> 00:06:44,190 resign his position, whether he will ever hold himself 115 00:06:44,190 --> 00:06:47,070 accountable is something you know, you really can't hold your 116 00:06:47,070 --> 00:06:49,860 breath for. And so Congress should have hearings, they 117 00:06:49,860 --> 00:06:53,160 should do their investigation, they should have appropriate 118 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,800 investigations of his behavior and hold them accountable. 119 00:06:56,070 --> 00:07:00,450 So you are standing by your prominent senator, colleagues, 120 00:07:00,570 --> 00:07:03,870 Senator Cory Booker, and others who have called today for the 121 00:07:03,870 --> 00:07:07,200 president to resign. I hear you very clearly agreeing with them. 122 00:07:07,470 --> 00:07:10,560 Do you think, though, that there should be as these women have 123 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,830 called for a bipartisan investigation, or are you 124 00:07:13,830 --> 00:07:15,570 calling for an immediate resignation? 125 00:07:15,630 --> 00:07:19,290 I think he should immediately resign. And if he doesn't, we 126 00:07:19,290 --> 00:07:20,550 should have the investigation. 127 00:07:20,969 --> 00:07:25,649 Let me back that up with a quick clip from these three women who 128 00:07:25,649 --> 00:07:31,559 are members who are part of this trump the film 16 women and 129 00:07:31,559 --> 00:07:38,039 Donald Trump. So these are the some old some new accusers of 130 00:07:38,519 --> 00:07:42,209 President. And first they went on Megyn Kelly show three of 131 00:07:42,209 --> 00:07:46,289 them did. And then they did a PR event for for the movie. They're 132 00:07:46,289 --> 00:07:52,319 in run by brave films, which is clearly a very partisan outfit. 133 00:07:52,829 --> 00:07:56,219 I looked at their nine dedica they got like $3 million in the 134 00:07:56,219 --> 00:07:59,669 bank, which I thought was a lot of money for just the, you know, 135 00:07:59,669 --> 00:08:05,399 little nonprofit during the film, but okay. The allegations 136 00:08:05,429 --> 00:08:07,619 are pretty intense. 137 00:08:07,650 --> 00:08:13,080 I am hoping that that this will come forward and and produce 138 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:20,940 enough pressure on Congress to address it more than just for 139 00:08:20,940 --> 00:08:23,370 their own members, but to address it in the president. 140 00:08:23,550 --> 00:08:27,870 They've investigated other Congress members, so I think it 141 00:08:27,870 --> 00:08:32,520 only stands fair that he be investigated, as well. If they 142 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:36,360 were willing to investigate Senator Franken, I think it's 143 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,820 only fair that they do the same for Trump. 144 00:08:39,689 --> 00:08:41,039 I mean, it's pretty flimsy. 145 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:45,630 Does anybody who has no kidding, does anybody know anything about 146 00:08:45,630 --> 00:08:46,860 separation of powers? 147 00:08:48,270 --> 00:08:52,530 Not these people. You want to listen to this trailer? Or if 148 00:08:52,530 --> 00:08:55,710 it's an excerpt or if it's a trailer of, of these women, and 149 00:08:55,710 --> 00:08:57,450 I have a comment about one of them. 150 00:08:57,689 --> 00:09:04,379 He groped me, he absolutely groped me. And he just slipped 151 00:09:04,379 --> 00:09:06,899 his hand there, touching my private part. 152 00:09:06,930 --> 00:09:10,740 He turned to me and embraced me and gave me a kiss on the lips. 153 00:09:10,740 --> 00:09:14,850 And I remember being shocked and because I would have just 154 00:09:14,850 --> 00:09:18,030 thought to shake somebody's hand. But that was his first 155 00:09:18,030 --> 00:09:19,140 response with it was 156 00:09:19,140 --> 00:09:23,100 a real shock when all of a sudden, his hands were all over 157 00:09:23,100 --> 00:09:25,860 me. But it's when he started putting his hand up my skirt. 158 00:09:26,970 --> 00:09:30,030 And that was it. That was it. 159 00:09:30,540 --> 00:09:34,680 The person on my right who unbeknownst to me at that time 160 00:09:34,710 --> 00:09:40,620 was Donald Trump put their hands up my skirt. He did touch my 161 00:09:40,620 --> 00:09:41,880 vagina through my underwear. 162 00:09:42,210 --> 00:09:46,560 As the women walked across the table. Donald Trump would look 163 00:09:46,560 --> 00:09:51,120 up under their skirt and you know, comment on whether they 164 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,480 had underwear or didn't have underwear. I didn't want to have 165 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:58,110 to walk across the table. I wanted to get out of there. Then 166 00:09:58,110 --> 00:10:03,240 his hand touched the right inside of my breath, 167 00:10:05,100 --> 00:10:11,730 I felt intimidated. And I felt powerless when I was standing 168 00:10:11,730 --> 00:10:14,040 right next to him when he touched my butt when we entered 169 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,630 the room, round 170 00:10:15,660 --> 00:10:20,010 each of us tightly enough and kissed each one of us without 171 00:10:20,010 --> 00:10:24,330 asking permission. After that, I received another call from 172 00:10:24,660 --> 00:10:28,470 either Donald or a male calling on his behalf, offering me 173 00:10:28,470 --> 00:10:33,990 10,000 These actions are huge testament to his character, that 174 00:10:33,990 --> 00:10:37,710 of uncontrollable misogyny, entitlement and to being a 175 00:10:37,710 --> 00:10:39,870 sexual assault apologist. 176 00:10:39,900 --> 00:10:43,740 Um, you know, sitting there in my robe and having, you know, my 177 00:10:43,740 --> 00:10:47,520 makeup and hair done and everything and he comes walking 178 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,550 in and I was just like, Oh, my goodness, 179 00:10:50,850 --> 00:10:52,350 what women doing back here, 180 00:10:52,380 --> 00:10:54,570 I saw him walk into the dressing room. 181 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,810 He just came strolling right in there was no second to put a 182 00:10:57,810 --> 00:11:01,110 robot or any sort of clothing or anything. Some girls were 183 00:11:01,110 --> 00:11:05,610 topless. Other girls were naked, waltzing in when we're naked, or 184 00:11:05,610 --> 00:11:08,610 half naked in a very physically vulnerable position. 185 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:14,580 Now, touching butts and Volvo's and stuff I can't comment on. 186 00:11:14,580 --> 00:11:19,140 That sounds pretty egregious. But the last voice you heard was 187 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:23,820 one of the Miss USA contestants, Trump owned the franchise. And 188 00:11:23,820 --> 00:11:26,460 let me tell you, I've been around a lot of fashion shows 189 00:11:27,270 --> 00:11:31,470 and have a bit participated in them of MC them. And when you're 190 00:11:31,470 --> 00:11:36,600 backstage, everyone's naked and no one gives a shit. They do not 191 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:40,380 care. All the girls want is a smoke some coffee and some coke. 192 00:11:40,380 --> 00:11:42,420 That's all they want. And they don't care. 193 00:11:42,930 --> 00:11:46,530 I would disagree with that. And, and not that I've been back 194 00:11:46,530 --> 00:11:50,040 there, but it's been documented. All you have to do is watch some 195 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:53,580 of these TV shows where they're where they're doing a runway, 196 00:11:53,820 --> 00:11:56,490 backstage runway stuff, and there's guys all over the place 197 00:11:56,490 --> 00:11:58,050 wandering around. Yeah. 198 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:00,930 Yes, yeah. So 199 00:12:00,930 --> 00:12:04,860 that last thing is bullcrap. I also think, I don't know how 200 00:12:04,860 --> 00:12:07,620 much of the other stuff is bullcrap. But probably half of 201 00:12:07,620 --> 00:12:13,710 it. But the problem I'm foreseeing is that I just have 202 00:12:13,710 --> 00:12:20,070 to assume that Roger Stone has put some phonies in there. He's 203 00:12:20,070 --> 00:12:23,280 planted a couple Oh, yeah, we're gonna just just you're gonna 204 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:27,600 come out and say I was paid to say this. And it's gonna get 205 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,090 Trump off the hook and embarrassed the Democrats. But, 206 00:12:30,420 --> 00:12:35,280 but on this on this stupid tweet, which is caused the 207 00:12:35,310 --> 00:12:39,510 trouble. Listen to the Gillibrand to this clip. Ms. 208 00:12:39,510 --> 00:12:45,300 Gillibrand tweet with with Mica. And then she was shaking like a 209 00:12:45,330 --> 00:12:47,790 leaf apparently because she read this tweet is the worst thing 210 00:12:47,790 --> 00:12:55,380 she's ever read. And then Katie Kay, who is a anchorwoman for 211 00:12:55,380 --> 00:12:59,700 the BBC America. She says something and makes a flub that 212 00:12:59,700 --> 00:13:00,840 I want to comment on 213 00:13:00,870 --> 00:13:04,860 yesterday because they were all on TV. Just be sure that the the 214 00:13:04,860 --> 00:13:09,330 fact that the three of us here are literally shaking in anger. 215 00:13:10,140 --> 00:13:15,150 If that tweet meant a lot. That tweet said so much about his 216 00:13:15,150 --> 00:13:19,140 character. That tweet said so much about how this White House 217 00:13:19,140 --> 00:13:22,800 is run. That tweet was one of the worst things I've seen so 218 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:24,480 far in this presidency, actually. 219 00:13:24,750 --> 00:13:26,910 And here's why it's so undermining you can make it to 220 00:13:26,910 --> 00:13:30,270 the stage of sanity you can do everything by the rules you can 221 00:13:30,270 --> 00:13:31,350 be as good as the Gala 222 00:13:31,350 --> 00:13:35,490 was that one person clapping? One person clapping 223 00:13:36,210 --> 00:13:39,240 stage of sanity. You can do everything by the rules. You can 224 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:43,020 be as good as the guys against around you. You can be the top 225 00:13:43,020 --> 00:13:45,300 of your class and if you're a woman, you can get to the top 226 00:13:45,330 --> 00:13:48,480 and you can still have that kind of crap thrown at you. 227 00:13:48,810 --> 00:13:54,660 Well, no doubt no doubt you're flub. No, I was I was too 228 00:13:54,660 --> 00:13:57,660 distracted by the clapping. Is there the last bit? Let me hear 229 00:13:57,660 --> 00:14:02,400 it again. Yeah. Why is it not working today? Because they were 230 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:02,700 all and 231 00:14:02,700 --> 00:14:05,520 here's why it's so undermining you can make it to the stage of 232 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,730 sanity. You can do everything by the rules, you can be as good as 233 00:14:08,730 --> 00:14:12,480 the guys against around you. You can be the top of your class. 234 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,880 And if you're a woman, you can get to the top and you can still 235 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,310 have that kind of crap thrown at you. 236 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,670 I mean, the guy's against you. Instead of and she this 237 00:14:20,670 --> 00:14:24,000 is the way she is. This is Katie. Kay, this is the way she 238 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:25,440 sees the workplace. Yeah, 239 00:14:25,469 --> 00:14:29,039 the guys are against her. Yeah, the guys are against her. 240 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:34,860 She's, is she seeing it? Cuz she's against them. And it's 241 00:14:34,860 --> 00:14:37,200 like a competitive thing. And you have to do what you have to 242 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:41,910 do. But I find it was very interesting. And she'd say that 243 00:14:41,910 --> 00:14:44,280 because that's what she was trying to send us to see change 244 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:47,280 that to around you. So it didn't sound so harsh. Right? Because 245 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:51,690 the men are all against me. I don't know. I found this whole 246 00:14:51,690 --> 00:14:53,520 thing to be quite funny you mentioned 247 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:58,680 Well, yeah. In that clip I like specifically where she says, you 248 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,800 know, this is his mindset. No That's your mindset. That is 249 00:15:01,860 --> 00:15:06,480 exactly the opposite is your mindset you read that? It's 250 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:10,230 what's in your head. This was an interesting I don't know if you 251 00:15:10,230 --> 00:15:13,470 heard about this, but Bill O'Reilly called into Glenn Beck 252 00:15:13,470 --> 00:15:17,610 show with some with a an interesting allegation. I want 253 00:15:17,610 --> 00:15:19,830 to tell you one thing, though I don't know if I mentioned this 254 00:15:19,830 --> 00:15:24,600 on your program. But I predicted and we discussed last week that 255 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:28,200 there's going to be a tremendous assault on President Trump 256 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:33,750 coming agree probably come in January. Because he did get the 257 00:15:33,750 --> 00:15:36,750 tax reform passed. And the Democrats now say, well, we got 258 00:15:36,750 --> 00:15:40,620 to destroy him because he may get reelected. There is a tape 259 00:15:40,740 --> 00:15:48,480 back and audio tape of a anti Trump person offering $200,000 260 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:54,750 to a woman to accuse Donald Trump of untoward behavior. 261 00:15:55,319 --> 00:15:58,409 So you know, you have talked to me about this. You've talked to 262 00:15:58,409 --> 00:16:00,959 me about this tape, you've talked to me about it privately, 263 00:16:01,139 --> 00:16:07,019 as well it with with additional information? Or is this tape 264 00:16:07,019 --> 00:16:08,249 going to be released 265 00:16:08,250 --> 00:16:08,910 or 266 00:16:08,940 --> 00:16:13,710 I may have to I may have to go to the US attorney myself. I 267 00:16:13,710 --> 00:16:16,290 don't want to have to do that and inject myself into the 268 00:16:16,290 --> 00:16:20,550 story. But there are I had my lawyer listen to the tape. My 269 00:16:20,550 --> 00:16:24,120 attorney, right. He's listened to it. There are at least three 270 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:28,110 crimes on the tape. So as a citizen, I may have to do this. 271 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:33,810 He hates inserting himself into the story. I'm sure Bill shoni 272 00:16:34,350 --> 00:16:36,960 I'm curious if there's something to it though. That's kind of 273 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:37,200 fun. 274 00:16:37,230 --> 00:16:40,980 You're probably is some dude, but his, his his oh my god, I 275 00:16:40,980 --> 00:16:44,370 have to get involved. Bullcrap is ridiculous, 276 00:16:44,490 --> 00:16:48,300 right? But okay. Yeah, well, here's the thing. 277 00:16:48,300 --> 00:16:51,660 I'm sorry. No, go ahead. Here's the big rundown. I want to get 278 00:16:51,660 --> 00:16:54,060 it out of the way. This is the rundown of the Trump versus 279 00:16:54,210 --> 00:16:58,050 Gillibrand story on CBS. And I think it's pretty good. And it 280 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:03,000 kind of covers all the stuff we just covered. But it also it 281 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:06,360 gives it a little a little more depth to the whole thing. It is 282 00:17:06,360 --> 00:17:07,320 not a bad report. 283 00:17:08,190 --> 00:17:11,190 T vs G makes nothing but since 284 00:17:11,220 --> 00:17:14,100 bitter argument has broken out between the President and the 285 00:17:14,100 --> 00:17:18,000 junior senator from his home state. It began when Democrat 286 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,820 Kyrsten Gillibrand called on Mr. Trump to resign 287 00:17:20,820 --> 00:17:23,790 and by the way, is it Jilla brand is it Gillibrand do we 288 00:17:23,790 --> 00:17:28,500 really know what the official pronunciation is? No, we don't I 289 00:17:28,500 --> 00:17:29,760 like Jilla. Brand better. 290 00:17:29,820 --> 00:17:31,170 I think it is Jilla Bran 291 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:35,100 senator from his home states. It began when Democrat Kyrsten 292 00:17:35,100 --> 00:17:38,820 Gillibrand called on Mr. Trump to resign because of accusations 293 00:17:38,820 --> 00:17:42,300 of sexual misconduct against him. The President fired back 294 00:17:42,300 --> 00:17:46,050 with his weapon of choice, the tweet with the latest on this. 295 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:47,460 Here's Nancy Cordis. 296 00:17:48,930 --> 00:17:52,770 It was a sexist smear, attempting to silence my voice. 297 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,800 New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand was attending a 298 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:59,430 bipartisan Bible study this morning, when the President sent 299 00:17:59,430 --> 00:18:03,690 his suggestive tweet, calling her a lightweight and flunky, 300 00:18:03,780 --> 00:18:07,770 who wants begged him for campaign contributions and would 301 00:18:07,770 --> 00:18:09,330 do anything for them. 302 00:18:09,660 --> 00:18:11,580 I think it was shameful. Democrats 303 00:18:11,580 --> 00:18:12,600 called the President's 304 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:13,890 words nasty 305 00:18:14,070 --> 00:18:19,020 and grotesque. Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren even 306 00:18:19,020 --> 00:18:22,710 accused him of trying to intimidate and slut shame 307 00:18:22,740 --> 00:18:23,580 Gillibrand. 308 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,700 If your mind is in the gutter, would you have read it that way? 309 00:18:26,940 --> 00:18:27,690 White House press 310 00:18:27,690 --> 00:18:31,710 secretary Sarah Sanders insisted there was no innuendos 311 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:35,610 and it's obviously talking about political partisan games that 312 00:18:35,610 --> 00:18:38,700 people often play and the broken system that he's talked about 313 00:18:38,700 --> 00:18:39,360 repeatedly, 314 00:18:39,540 --> 00:18:43,620 but by this afternoon, more than 100, House Democrats had signed 315 00:18:43,620 --> 00:18:46,980 a letter requesting that the House Committee on Oversight 316 00:18:47,100 --> 00:18:51,390 investigate the reports of sexual misconduct raised against 317 00:18:51,390 --> 00:18:55,320 President Trump by more than a dozen women stretching back to 318 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:56,520 the 1980s 319 00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:02,580 force kissing, unwanted touching and groping on an aeroplane in a 320 00:19:02,580 --> 00:19:05,700 corporate office. In a patch and dressing room. 321 00:19:06,270 --> 00:19:09,900 Democrats forced out two of their own members last week over 322 00:19:09,900 --> 00:19:11,370 similar allegations. 323 00:19:11,610 --> 00:19:13,830 I'm sorry, Mr. President. 324 00:19:14,730 --> 00:19:18,960 You do not live under a different set of rules. Yes, 325 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:20,880 party that controls Congress. 326 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:23,280 What we're in charge of here is the Senate 327 00:19:23,580 --> 00:19:25,650 does not want to touch the issue. 328 00:19:26,100 --> 00:19:28,770 Should there be a formal investigation? I thought that's 329 00:19:28,770 --> 00:19:30,240 what the last election was. 330 00:19:30,390 --> 00:19:34,050 Gillibrand says she won't stop trying. Republican leaders have 331 00:19:34,050 --> 00:19:37,080 been reluctant to even acknowledge the allegations 332 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,810 against President Trump. Why do you think they'd be willing to 333 00:19:39,810 --> 00:19:41,130 open an investigation? 334 00:19:41,250 --> 00:19:44,250 That is the right thing to do, and I'm urging them to do that 335 00:19:44,340 --> 00:19:46,110 and as should their constituents. 336 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,920 late this afternoon, the Republican Chair of the House 337 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,890 Oversight Committee officially declined to open an 338 00:19:52,890 --> 00:19:56,850 investigation but for an unexpected reason. He said the 339 00:19:56,850 --> 00:20:01,200 allegations against President Trump if true, I are crimes and 340 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:04,410 therefore are better handled by the Justice Department than 341 00:20:04,410 --> 00:20:05,070 Congress? 342 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:10,650 No one as far as I know, has filed any suit or any official 343 00:20:10,650 --> 00:20:11,430 complaint even 344 00:20:11,970 --> 00:20:15,150 know, they haven't filed anything. So this is it. What 345 00:20:15,150 --> 00:20:18,540 bothers me about this is the Democrats are, and that may be 346 00:20:18,570 --> 00:20:23,610 Scott Adams kind of implies this with his analysis of these 347 00:20:23,610 --> 00:20:27,750 tweets. The Democrats are spinning their wheels over this 348 00:20:27,750 --> 00:20:32,310 sexual breasts touching a butt grabbing or whatever he's done. 349 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:36,600 As far as I can tell, all he's done was talk a big game with 350 00:20:36,630 --> 00:20:41,760 which was what was going on with that Access Hollywood tape or 351 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,540 whatever I think that was, and they're missing. Like, we've 352 00:20:45,540 --> 00:20:50,400 just spent $700 billion on a military budget from Judge, 353 00:20:50,430 --> 00:20:53,460 which is money going to an out of control Defense Department, 354 00:20:53,460 --> 00:20:56,100 they're supposed to audit. By the way here, 355 00:20:56,130 --> 00:21:00,300 one of our producers sent me a note. And his company is doing 356 00:21:00,300 --> 00:21:02,640 the audit. He says, I don't know if we'll get anywhere he says, 357 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:06,630 but we're doing it it is really happening. Yeah, big gun light. 358 00:21:07,500 --> 00:21:10,920 Just saying it's, I just wanted to let everyone know is we got 359 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:12,420 people in important places. 360 00:21:12,750 --> 00:21:17,070 So we have. So this is going on at this. I mean, if they really 361 00:21:17,070 --> 00:21:20,430 did an audit and found where all the money was got wasted. I just 362 00:21:20,430 --> 00:21:23,340 was gonna use the word going by man wasted, they could probably 363 00:21:23,340 --> 00:21:26,760 get by with a $500 billion budget and put 200 billion into 364 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:30,360 the economy that do some people some good fix the potholes in 365 00:21:30,360 --> 00:21:34,980 highway ad, for example, there it is. And, and I would say that 366 00:21:35,010 --> 00:21:38,940 this would be a more of an issue besides the guy grabbing 367 00:21:38,940 --> 00:21:42,480 somebody's butt 20 years ago, who cares? The Democrats are 368 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,750 completely and by the way, and I do when I do a lot of clips 369 00:21:45,750 --> 00:21:46,920 about this Roy Moore. 370 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,890 We're not there yet. We got some other stuff to do first, 371 00:21:50,370 --> 00:21:54,660 I'm just gonna say that everything they're doing is 372 00:21:54,690 --> 00:21:56,940 they're just sidetracking themselves. I think they're 373 00:21:56,940 --> 00:22:00,690 gonna be a big flop in 2018. If they if they can't come up with 374 00:22:00,690 --> 00:22:03,510 something other than just slut shaming Trump. 375 00:22:04,830 --> 00:22:07,950 I don't see anything else on the horizon. It's all it's all. I 376 00:22:07,950 --> 00:22:13,170 see. They got really. So I don't I don't think they have anything 377 00:22:13,170 --> 00:22:20,160 else. But I do have a couple of clips and a couple other people 378 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,220 who have been caught up in the web of hashtag me too. This is 379 00:22:23,220 --> 00:22:24,150 from CNBC. 380 00:22:24,300 --> 00:22:26,880 What's happening at this hour everyone in New York Senator 381 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:30,750 Kirsten Gillibrand, I should say, calling on President Trump 382 00:22:30,750 --> 00:22:34,680 to resign. This is three women spoke out against him accusing 383 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:38,580 him of varying degrees of inappropriate behavior. One was 384 00:22:38,580 --> 00:22:40,560 asked if she was considering a lawsuit. 385 00:22:40,770 --> 00:22:43,170 I mean, what am I going to sue him for being really creepy? 386 00:22:43,500 --> 00:22:47,700 That's not something that would stand up in court. But what I'm 387 00:22:47,700 --> 00:22:51,780 more concerned about is as a culture in our country, what is 388 00:22:51,780 --> 00:22:56,220 acceptable behavior? And if the standard that our president is 389 00:22:56,220 --> 00:22:58,890 setting, it's not high enough, right now, 390 00:22:59,070 --> 00:23:06,000 I'm gonna say again, that the standard of our, our community 391 00:23:06,030 --> 00:23:09,900 of our What does she what word does she use of our culture, but 392 00:23:09,900 --> 00:23:15,180 we are in the United States of behavior. Turn on television, go 393 00:23:15,180 --> 00:23:19,560 look at a magazine. Go look at a movie and 394 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:21,990 listen to one of the Democrats podcasts. 395 00:23:24,270 --> 00:23:27,390 And tell me that it isn't coming for it. You know, it's 396 00:23:27,390 --> 00:23:32,070 everywhere. We are a highly hyper sexualized society. 397 00:23:32,250 --> 00:23:35,310 Certainly, Hollywood, certainly the United States, highly 398 00:23:35,310 --> 00:23:39,120 sexualized. Now, let me give you a couple other rundown of some 399 00:23:39,120 --> 00:23:41,670 names and what's been happening in case you haven't kept up. 400 00:23:42,330 --> 00:23:46,320 Morgan Spurlock did something very interesting. You know who 401 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:53,160 that guy is? He's the Yeah, he's the documentarian. He did 402 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:57,510 Supersize Me and some. Yeah, Supersize Me. So he came out 403 00:23:57,510 --> 00:24:01,500 with this huge letter. And he said, Oh, I'm part of the 404 00:24:01,500 --> 00:24:05,880 problem. And here's what I've done. He said, I used to call my 405 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:10,680 assistant hotpants in the office. And he also went into, I 406 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,930 think it's actually very interesting what he did. He went 407 00:24:12,930 --> 00:24:16,920 into something where he was with a woman and they were drinking 408 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,560 and then they were naked. And then and then they were having 409 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:22,170 sex. She said, didn't want to have sex, and then they stopped 410 00:24:22,170 --> 00:24:28,020 and then she sued him for rape or, or said, if you don't pay me 411 00:24:28,020 --> 00:24:30,810 10 grand, I'm going to sue you for rape, something like that. 412 00:24:32,190 --> 00:24:35,940 So he's taken a very interesting tact by coming out and saying 413 00:24:35,940 --> 00:24:39,480 I'm bad. And I think you won't hear anything about him. We'll 414 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:44,550 see. Ya then the New York Times Salma Hayek home my God.

Johnny Depp who 605 00:36:24,690 --> 00:36:28,260 beats women. No, that's okay. No problem. Right right, Troy let's 606 00:36:28,260 --> 00:36:32,370 hit let's let's listen to Alec Baldwin preys on ABC. 607 00:36:36,090 --> 00:36:39,090 Another guy Alec Baldwin returning to sitcom television 608 00:36:39,090 --> 00:36:46,680 and the best part right here at ABC. reporting that ABC is 609 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:50,520 developing a new comedy series co created an executive produced 610 00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:54,390 by black ish creator Kenya Barris and Baldwin, who was so 611 00:36:54,390 --> 00:36:58,350 excellent on 30 Rock on NBC. This time around, he'll play an 612 00:36:58,350 --> 00:37:02,280 opinionated, fading TV star who moves in with his progressive 613 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:05,820 daughter and her girlfriend. The currently unnamed series is set 614 00:37:05,820 --> 00:37:08,940 to premiere right here next season on ABC. 615 00:37:12,210 --> 00:37:17,520 All one who's who's a known jerk is why does he gets such a pass 616 00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,310 and he gets a huge passion. Let's play to remind people. 617 00:37:20,430 --> 00:37:26,160 This is Alec Baldwin, talking to his 11 year old daughter on and 618 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:27,660 left a message on her phone. 619 00:37:27,899 --> 00:37:30,269 I want to tell you something, okay. And I want to leave a 620 00:37:30,269 --> 00:37:33,989 message for you right now. Because again, it's 1030 here in 621 00:37:33,989 --> 00:37:38,729 New York on a Wednesday. And once again, I made an ass of 622 00:37:38,729 --> 00:37:43,469 myself, trying to get to a phone to call you a specific time. 623 00:37:44,039 --> 00:37:47,819 When the time comes for me to make the phone call. I stop 624 00:37:47,849 --> 00:37:51,419 whatever I'm doing. And I go when I make that phone call at 625 00:37:51,419 --> 00:37:54,239 11 o'clock in the morning in New York. And if you don't pick up 626 00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:57,149 the phone at 10 o'clock at night, and you don't even have 627 00:37:57,149 --> 00:38:00,659 that goddamn phone turned on. I want you to know something, 628 00:38:00,659 --> 00:38:05,369 okay? I'm tired of playing this game with you. I'm leaving the 629 00:38:05,369 --> 00:38:08,969 session with you to tell you, you have insulted me for the 630 00:38:08,969 --> 00:38:14,969 last time. You have insulted me, you don't have the brains or the 631 00:38:14,969 --> 00:38:20,279 decency as a human. I don't give a damn that you're 12 years old 632 00:38:20,279 --> 00:38:25,019 or 11 years old. Your child or your mother was a pain in the 633 00:38:25,019 --> 00:38:28,379 ass? Who doesn't care about what you do? As far as I'm concerned? 634 00:38:28,470 --> 00:38:31,620 It was sad though. He's mad at his ex and he's yelling at the 635 00:38:31,620 --> 00:38:34,890 kid. It's you know, it's transference in a in an odd way. 636 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:35,040 But 637 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:37,410 yeah, what it is was say it's actually more pathetic when he 638 00:38:37,410 --> 00:38:39,000 doesn't know her age. 639 00:38:39,630 --> 00:38:43,200 But that sucks. Well, I don't want to play the whole thing 640 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:47,550 because it's horrible audio. I think people remember it. He 641 00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:51,780 calls her a pig. Yeah, a dirty little pig. And he goes on and 642 00:38:51,780 --> 00:38:55,800 on and on. Why does this guy and I've put Johnny Depp in the same 643 00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:59,640 camp? Why did they get a pass? While he's like You named a 644 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:03,300 number of journalists who whose only sin was to have a lewd 645 00:39:03,330 --> 00:39:07,320 direct message or, or an inappropriate direct message is 646 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:10,500 not even something physically interesting. Why do these guys 647 00:39:10,500 --> 00:39:11,160 get a pass 648 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:13,920 interesting. You bring that up from the face bag. I won't play 649 00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,080 the jingle because it's not necessarily a voice I want to 650 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:19,620 use right now. This is a friend of mine who works at Saturday 651 00:39:19,620 --> 00:39:23,610 Night Live. I worked with this person or for many, many years 652 00:39:23,610 --> 00:39:27,810 at MTV. And then she posted about Al Franken because of 653 00:39:27,810 --> 00:39:32,400 course, she worked with Al Franken as well. Or maybe just a 654 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:35,310 little bit because I think I know not sure when he left but 655 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:40,170 the Al Franken situation is heartbreaking. I haven't written 656 00:39:40,170 --> 00:39:42,540 on this because Al is someone I've known personally since 657 00:39:42,540 --> 00:39:46,560 1981. And truly admire and respect. I would even call him a 658 00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:49,980 friend though I was closer with his dearly missed X comedy 659 00:39:49,980 --> 00:39:54,120 partner Tom Davis. As many have said the owl that we saw at SNL 660 00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:57,330 was incredibly respectful of mostly everyone. I like that 661 00:39:57,330 --> 00:40:00,600 mostly. And in regards to his relationship With women I will 662 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,570 always remember the times that he insisted on women writers be 663 00:40:03,570 --> 00:40:07,020 present when auditions were held for films that parent that 664 00:40:07,020 --> 00:40:10,770 parodied models or beach bunnies or whatever, to keep sexual 665 00:40:10,770 --> 00:40:14,250 tension out of the room. And as with many grown men who have 666 00:40:14,250 --> 00:40:17,550 continued to find college frat boy humor funny, many in their 667 00:40:17,550 --> 00:40:21,570 60s still love fart jokes, others, others gross sexual 668 00:40:21,570 --> 00:40:25,890 situations often acting like cavemen. l did have a bit of 669 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:29,100 that in him. Uh huh. That's enough these days, I might want 670 00:40:29,100 --> 00:40:31,950 to add, anyway, I do find this behavior that has led to the 671 00:40:31,950 --> 00:40:35,190 current situation really ugly and fucked up. If indeed it is 672 00:40:35,190 --> 00:40:38,340 true. There would be no excuse and some sort of action to be 673 00:40:38,340 --> 00:40:42,090 taken again, only if it's accurate. But here goes, if this 674 00:40:42,090 --> 00:40:43,590 had been happening during a different type of 675 00:40:43,590 --> 00:40:46,800 administration, like our also dearly Miss Barack Obama, whose 676 00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:50,070 people had integrity, good intentions, views that showed 677 00:40:50,070 --> 00:40:53,100 they were real human beings, and one that made us feel safe and 678 00:40:53,100 --> 00:40:56,130 that we were led by people that had our well being at heart, I 679 00:40:56,130 --> 00:40:59,670 might have thought that maybe I should resign, maybe, but in a 680 00:40:59,670 --> 00:41:03,300 time where someone as obviously unqualified like Betsy DeVos 681 00:41:03,330 --> 00:41:06,150 gets approved and what is happening with immigration taxes 682 00:41:06,300 --> 00:41:09,150 are national landscapes and parks and an administration full 683 00:41:09,150 --> 00:41:12,420 of sexual predators and countless other things. We need 684 00:41:12,420 --> 00:41:15,930 people like Al Franken to stay in the Senate. He's fighting the 685 00:41:15,930 --> 00:41:20,430 good fight. And on our side, you know which side that is sorry. 686 00:41:20,460 --> 00:41:23,130 But there must be other ways to deal with this alleged awful 687 00:41:23,130 --> 00:41:26,700 personal behavior treatment, which would not help Weinstein 688 00:41:26,700 --> 00:41:30,060 and spacey use x or unspeakable and evil on a whole other level. 689 00:41:30,450 --> 00:41:33,540 That would actually help have the victims who are affected by 690 00:41:33,540 --> 00:41:36,690 this confront him directly in meetings, pause, have a meeting, 691 00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:41,340 maybe, maybe there'll be some healing there or the hell with 692 00:41:41,340 --> 00:41:44,910 it, bring back flogging and lash the fucker. The philosophy of 693 00:41:44,910 --> 00:41:47,730 let's take our licks and let a new breed come forth his name 694 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:50,430 horseshit. If you all think I'm wrong, I'll take this down. But 695 00:41:50,430 --> 00:41:53,220 as of this moment, as Stan Laurel says, that's my story I'm 696 00:41:53,220 --> 00:41:56,070 sticking to it is just seeing one of the great people I've 697 00:41:56,070 --> 00:41:59,040 been lucky enough to know get unfairly taken down like this 698 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:01,350 without even a hearing is shattering. 699 00:42:04,170 --> 00:42:08,370 Double standard much. Sounds like it to me. But here's the 700 00:42:08,370 --> 00:42:12,270 kicker. Steve Pjanic, 701 00:42:13,620 --> 00:42:16,980 the psychological warfare expert who has worked for many 702 00:42:16,980 --> 00:42:23,400 presidents and many agencies, and military. And he posted one 703 00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:26,340 of his videos and by that we have a an interview with him for 704 00:42:26,340 --> 00:42:30,450 our Christmas Show, which I did, which I think you'll like he, 705 00:42:30,900 --> 00:42:34,140 well listen to it, and then you can understand what he's saying. 706 00:42:34,410 --> 00:42:39,690 But just some background. He currently he's fighting. What is 707 00:42:39,690 --> 00:42:45,870 it called? It's the water company. Mosaic mining, I think 708 00:42:45,870 --> 00:42:48,960 in Florida, because they have all the water rights and 709 00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:52,920 they're, they're diverting water away from certain parts of 710 00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:56,940 Florida and I he hates him. He hates him. He hates me hates 711 00:42:56,940 --> 00:43:01,110 him. And it's in this context that he makes an interesting 712 00:43:01,110 --> 00:43:01,620 admission. 713 00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:06,480 Senator Al Franken from Minnesota had to resign. The 714 00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:12,360 reason sexual harassment, the real reason is simply that I had 715 00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:18,480 put a psychological profile on him knowing fully well that he 716 00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:22,140 had had a history of sexual harassment. Now, how do I know 717 00:43:22,140 --> 00:43:26,820 that it's not relevant in my business of psychological 718 00:43:26,820 --> 00:43:31,080 profiling and psychological warfare. I know a lot about many 719 00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:33,960 individuals, particularly those who are in the Senate who are in 720 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:37,740 government and who are high up in the private industry. The 721 00:43:37,740 --> 00:43:43,050 point of fact here was that I had requested Al Franken and his 722 00:43:43,050 --> 00:43:47,520 superior, Amy flew Bakker, senator from Minnesota to really 723 00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:50,850 intervene on behalf of the honest citizens of Central 724 00:43:50,850 --> 00:43:55,020 Florida, so that they would stop the horrendous terrorist 725 00:43:55,020 --> 00:43:58,530 activities of Mosaic minds that came out of Plymouth, Minnesota. 726 00:43:59,190 --> 00:44:02,580 Al Franken didn't respond to that request. I wrote blogs 727 00:44:02,580 --> 00:44:07,200 about it, I implored them, and nothing was done. In turn, I 728 00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:11,730 decided that I would start a psychological warfare against Al 729 00:44:11,730 --> 00:44:16,020 Franken. Now, that is not a direct hit. It's what we call in 730 00:44:16,020 --> 00:44:20,130 the business a site pocket shot. There was evidence to suggest 731 00:44:20,130 --> 00:44:23,400 that Al Franken had a history of sexual harassment, but it's not 732 00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:27,090 an accident that the two major evidences that came out, came 733 00:44:27,090 --> 00:44:31,950 out from two different tours that he made the USO during his 734 00:44:31,950 --> 00:44:33,180 tour in the Middle East, 735 00:44:33,210 --> 00:44:36,480 remember, but genic is in very tight with military 736 00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:37,650 intelligence. One was 737 00:44:37,650 --> 00:44:45,150 in 2001 2003, and then 2006. So I leave that supposition and 738 00:44:45,150 --> 00:44:48,720 target of opportunity for you to think it down and for Al Franken 739 00:44:48,720 --> 00:44:49,560 to think about. 740 00:44:49,740 --> 00:44:52,620 That's interesting. He's kind of claiming that he, 741 00:44:53,070 --> 00:44:55,620 yeah, he's claiming the responsibility for getting rid 742 00:44:55,620 --> 00:44:56,040 of the guy. 743 00:44:57,360 --> 00:44:58,260 That's pretty brazen. 744 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:03,420 It doesn't sound like some somebody who actually has those 745 00:45:03,420 --> 00:45:04,740 abilities would actually bro 746 00:45:05,250 --> 00:45:07,710 he's he's very angry about this water thing but I don't 747 00:45:07,710 --> 00:45:09,720 understand why why we Franken but 748 00:45:11,250 --> 00:45:14,730 well he first saw Frank and I'm supposed to go over if you got 749 00:45:14,730 --> 00:45:18,210 to go up to somebody got hurt Amy Klobuchar want to go through 750 00:45:18,210 --> 00:45:22,320 that exact but it's because he didn't get any response because 751 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:28,050 the company's a big Plymouth the Minnesota based company. There 752 00:45:28,050 --> 00:45:29,130 you go that was the reason I 753 00:45:29,130 --> 00:45:33,300 didn't get okay. That's why. Anyway, he's it's an interesting 754 00:45:33,300 --> 00:45:36,660 video that you see in the show notes he goes on and on then 755 00:45:36,690 --> 00:45:42,600 this stunning allegation from Eddie Fisher's ex wife. I don't 756 00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:44,940 think anyone but you and I remember Eddie Fisher. 757 00:45:46,110 --> 00:45:48,540 I remember Eddie Fisher, and he was married to a number of 758 00:45:48,540 --> 00:45:51,450 women, which is which one we talking about. He was also 759 00:45:51,450 --> 00:45:53,070 married to Debbie Reynolds. Yeah, you 760 00:45:53,070 --> 00:45:55,830 know this not Debbie. It's not Debbie Reynolds obviously. 761 00:45:57,270 --> 00:45:58,050 The hot one. 762 00:45:59,310 --> 00:46:01,890 I forget her name. Well listen to her story, and it's 763 00:46:01,890 --> 00:46:03,060 dramatized Hi, I'm 764 00:46:03,060 --> 00:46:05,760 Tavish. I was dammit, I gave 765 00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:06,600 away my next clip. 766 00:46:06,660 --> 00:46:10,260 Larry King is a Grover. He groped me twice. 767 00:46:10,890 --> 00:46:14,520 They were the moments 63 year old Terry Richard says she will 768 00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:15,570 never forget. 769 00:46:16,110 --> 00:46:20,820 I was doing a story for the token times. It was the baseball 770 00:46:20,820 --> 00:46:24,600 RBI Hall of Fame dinner. And Larry was there and Larry saw me 771 00:46:24,660 --> 00:46:27,870 and my photographer tried to punch us together. And Larry had 772 00:46:27,870 --> 00:46:32,850 his hand on the middle of my back. And as the photographer 773 00:46:32,850 --> 00:46:39,270 said, Look this way. He took his hand and he slid it all the way 774 00:46:39,930 --> 00:46:43,770 down into the crack of my ass. He just stuck. I don't know how 775 00:46:43,770 --> 00:46:44,610 he got in there. But 776 00:46:47,190 --> 00:46:50,460 I don't know how we got it in there. But somehow, Larry King's 777 00:46:50,460 --> 00:46:53,850 a genius. He got an awful lot of experience. He got all the way 778 00:46:53,850 --> 00:46:55,260 in the crack and my ads froze 779 00:46:55,260 --> 00:46:58,200 and I yell I yelled out, my reaction was just slap him in 780 00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:02,640 his face, but he was the guest speaker. It was awful. What 781 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:07,710 really got me was I'm a wife. My child was at the event. I'm 782 00:47:07,710 --> 00:47:12,300 working. And I was over 50 So there's no age limit. 783 00:47:13,650 --> 00:47:17,880 There's no age limit. That's right. Larry King the groper 784 00:47:18,630 --> 00:47:24,450 slipping it in the ass crack nice King. Very nice. Bad news 785 00:47:24,450 --> 00:47:26,490 though for Kentucky 786 00:47:26,490 --> 00:47:30,150 so it gets a pass as you get a pass. Like alley ballers it 787 00:47:30,150 --> 00:47:32,460 gets it gets a pass. 788 00:47:32,850 --> 00:47:36,720 I'd like to know why these guys get a pass and other guys don't 789 00:47:36,720 --> 00:47:41,040 get a pass. What is the what is the line of demarcation? We 790 00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:44,010 can't say it's because it's just Republicans, because most of the 791 00:47:44,010 --> 00:47:46,650 people that are busted including Al Franken in this are 792 00:47:46,650 --> 00:47:50,160 Democrats. In fact, it wasn't until recently to the tide 793 00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:53,340 turned and we started to have a balance of both Republicans and 794 00:47:53,340 --> 00:47:55,560 Democrats. So why did these guys get a pass? 795 00:47:55,770 --> 00:48:00,210 I'm not sure. I'm not sure. This guy didn't give himself a pass. 796 00:48:00,210 --> 00:48:03,420 Sad story but the breaks WW 797 00:48:03,420 --> 00:48:07,140 news alert. Kentucky State Representative Dan Johnson has 798 00:48:07,140 --> 00:48:08,880 reportedly committed suicide. 799 00:48:08,970 --> 00:48:12,270 This is just one day after he denied accusations of child 800 00:48:12,270 --> 00:48:15,090 molestation. We have crews across the area tonight as the 801 00:48:15,090 --> 00:48:16,410 story is still developing. 802 00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:19,620 This bridge behind me is where investigators say Representative 803 00:48:19,620 --> 00:48:22,860 Dan Johnson appears to have committed suicide tonight. This 804 00:48:22,860 --> 00:48:26,700 comes just one day after Johnson denied allegations of sexual 805 00:48:26,700 --> 00:48:29,580 molestation. Bullitt County Sheriff Donnie Tennille says 806 00:48:29,580 --> 00:48:33,390 Johnson shot himself on the bridge once under his chin. This 807 00:48:33,390 --> 00:48:36,600 happened in Mount Washington in a rural area of Grinnell Ford 808 00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:40,800 Road. Investigators say Johnson drove his SUV a Ford Escape over 809 00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:43,830 the bridge pulled over stood in front of the SUV and shot 810 00:48:43,830 --> 00:48:47,880 himself one time, a WD tells us someone saw Johnson's posts on 811 00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:52,080 social media and called 911 law enforcement and then pinged his 812 00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:55,290 phone which led them to this general area. They discovered 813 00:48:55,290 --> 00:48:55,830 his body 814 00:48:55,890 --> 00:48:58,290 I thought that was interesting. They pinged his phone isn't that 815 00:48:58,290 --> 00:49:02,190 easy? To ping someone's phone and find their location. It's 816 00:49:02,190 --> 00:49:04,320 just just a throwaway line in the report but 817 00:49:04,380 --> 00:49:05,640 they I think it 818 00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:06,540 is noticeable 819 00:49:06,570 --> 00:49:11,070 posts on social media and called 911. Law enforcement then pinged 820 00:49:11,070 --> 00:49:14,460 his phone which led them to this general area. They discovered 821 00:49:14,460 --> 00:49:17,580 his body near the bridge on the bank of the Salt River. 822 00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:21,690 Adrian Representative Dan Johnson denied the accusations 823 00:49:21,690 --> 00:49:25,290 yesterday right here at his church. On Monday, the chairman 824 00:49:25,290 --> 00:49:27,240 of the Republican Party of Kentucky called on 825 00:49:27,240 --> 00:49:30,840 Representative Dan Johnson to resign. It came after report 826 00:49:30,840 --> 00:49:34,770 emerged accusing him of sexually molesting a 17 year old girl in 827 00:49:34,770 --> 00:49:38,520 a church basement in 2012. Just yesterday, Johnson responded to 828 00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:41,370 those claims at the heart of fire church where he was a 829 00:49:41,370 --> 00:49:42,000 pastor, 830 00:49:42,210 --> 00:49:47,340 this allegation concerning this this lady, this young girl 831 00:49:47,580 --> 00:49:51,420 absolutely has no merit. I'm not standing here today to step down 832 00:49:51,420 --> 00:49:55,020 or resign or to do anything like that. There's a lot of people 833 00:49:55,170 --> 00:49:59,220 that are willing to jump to judgment without any proof. 834 00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:04,260 Yeah, And then he went and killed himself. Sad. But yeah, 835 00:50:04,260 --> 00:50:08,700 it's like molested a girl in the basement of the church. See? 836 00:50:08,700 --> 00:50:08,910 Well, 837 00:50:08,910 --> 00:50:16,170 that was kind of the joke is the age of consent in Kentucky 16. 838 00:50:17,220 --> 00:50:18,270 Is it still 16? 839 00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:22,380 Let me look to the age of consent for sexual intercourse 840 00:50:22,380 --> 00:50:26,070 depends on the victim's age at the general age of consent is 16 841 00:50:26,490 --> 00:50:31,290 but may be 18 years for other circumstances. So it's possible 842 00:50:31,290 --> 00:50:34,980 that they do have some of these ages you can have sex at 16 if 843 00:50:34,980 --> 00:50:36,870 you're having sex with 17 844 00:50:36,870 --> 00:50:39,000 sounds like it might not have been consensual 845 00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:42,870 but still, well, it sounds like when I first started hearing the 846 00:50:42,870 --> 00:50:45,300 report, I thought it was a pedophile and by that I don't 847 00:50:45,300 --> 00:50:46,860 mean a 17 year old 848 00:50:46,890 --> 00:50:50,340 Oh yeah, no, I understand this word is bandied about so easily. 849 00:50:50,370 --> 00:50:53,550 I've heard people say on on television on the telescreen 850 00:50:55,470 --> 00:50:59,700 admitted pedophile you know about Roy Moore as an example. 851 00:51:00,360 --> 00:51:05,070 It's not exactly how that goes. But the worst one of the metoo 852 00:51:05,070 --> 00:51:09,150 movement, another blow for the Public Broadcasting System, the 853 00:51:09,150 --> 00:51:13,920 propaganda broadcasting system after Charlie Rose, we take down 854 00:51:14,610 --> 00:51:19,920 a staple of public broadcasting Tavis Smiley. What? Yeah, 855 00:51:20,310 --> 00:51:25,710 I didn't hear this one show suspended. Fire fan of Tavis 856 00:51:25,710 --> 00:51:29,970 Smiley took me. Let me give a little background on that. Tavis 857 00:51:29,970 --> 00:51:32,310 Smiley. I never liked him. I never liked his interviewing 858 00:51:32,310 --> 00:51:36,150 style. I always find his voice to be peculiar. Yeah. And then I 859 00:51:36,180 --> 00:51:39,180 but over the years, I have watched his show. He has a 860 00:51:39,180 --> 00:51:42,510 really outstanding interviewer. His show is great. So I would 861 00:51:42,510 --> 00:51:45,990 watch his show. I'd have unusual people to interview it was very 862 00:51:45,990 --> 00:51:48,750 interesting. He was a good. It seemed like a really good guy. 863 00:51:48,810 --> 00:51:52,080 And he I should mention this because we're talking about who 864 00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:55,440 gets a pass and who does it. You have to remember that he was 865 00:51:55,440 --> 00:52:00,060 with Cornell West dead, the black professor, and they're on 866 00:52:00,060 --> 00:52:01,710 the rampage against Obama. 867 00:52:01,740 --> 00:52:06,660 Yeah. So no pass no pass for him. No Pass for him. But when 868 00:52:06,660 --> 00:52:11,250 you hear his side of the story, it's even more crazy. So the 869 00:52:11,250 --> 00:52:14,820 headline is Tavis Smiley talk show host suspended after PBS 870 00:52:14,820 --> 00:52:18,960 investigation into sexual misconduct claims against the 871 00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:21,930 host. And he posted this on the face bag. 872 00:52:21,959 --> 00:52:25,859 Hi, I'm Tavish I was as shocked as you want to hear of PBS a 873 00:52:25,859 --> 00:52:29,099 sudden announcement regarding my television program. Let me say 874 00:52:29,099 --> 00:52:32,219 at the outset that I have the utmost respect for all women. 875 00:52:32,609 --> 00:52:34,949 And I certainly celebrate the courage of those women who've 876 00:52:34,949 --> 00:52:38,849 come forth late to share their own truth. But let me also 877 00:52:38,849 --> 00:52:43,469 assure you that I have never groped inappropriately exposed 878 00:52:43,469 --> 00:52:48,869 myself, or cursed any colleague in the workplace ever. In my 30 879 00:52:48,869 --> 00:52:52,619 year career. PBS lost his so called investigation of me 880 00:52:52,619 --> 00:52:55,469 without ever even telling me about it. I only learned this 881 00:52:55,469 --> 00:52:58,289 investigation because former colleagues former staffers 882 00:52:58,499 --> 00:53:01,439 started to call me to tell me they were getting a phone call 883 00:53:01,439 --> 00:53:05,369 from some PBS investigator asking number one, did Tavis 884 00:53:05,369 --> 00:53:08,129 ever make you feel uncomfortable in the workplace? And number 885 00:53:08,129 --> 00:53:12,449 two, can you give us other persons to call? Only after 886 00:53:12,449 --> 00:53:16,859 threatening a lawsuit? Did PBS investigators agree to sit down 887 00:53:16,859 --> 00:53:21,029 and talk to me for three hours. And even then their minds must 888 00:53:21,029 --> 00:53:23,999 have been made up? Because almost immediately after that 889 00:53:23,999 --> 00:53:29,009 session ended? This story broke in variety. PBS investigators 890 00:53:29,009 --> 00:53:32,519 refused to look in any of my documentation, refused to talk 891 00:53:32,519 --> 00:53:35,699 to any of my current staffers refused to give me the names of 892 00:53:35,729 --> 00:53:39,449 any of my accusers and refused to give me any semblance of due 893 00:53:39,449 --> 00:53:44,429 process. It is clear that this has gone too far. And I for one 894 00:53:44,669 --> 00:53:48,869 intend to fight back. PBS overreacted and they lost a 895 00:53:48,869 --> 00:53:52,829 sloppy investigation. It's time for a real conversation in this 896 00:53:52,829 --> 00:53:56,639 country about where the lines are about how men and women can 897 00:53:56,639 --> 00:53:59,939 engage each other in the workplace. And I look forward to 898 00:53:59,969 --> 00:54:03,239 actively participating in that conversation. 899 00:54:04,890 --> 00:54:06,120 What this all means 900 00:54:07,350 --> 00:54:12,150 big time lawsuit.

Dvorak is John C. dvorak.org. Would be the 925 00:55:52,740 --> 00:55:53,100 email. 926 00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:55,170 I'm just calling the school, not the state. 927 00:55:55,410 --> 00:55:57,720 Just that someone launched this app. Me I thought it was 928 00:55:57,720 --> 00:56:00,720 interesting. Because I was I was watching the signing of the 929 00:56:00,720 --> 00:56:03,720 NDAA, the National Defense Authorization Act still combing 930 00:56:03,720 --> 00:56:07,560 through it, then I hope to get the tax bill today or tomorrow 931 00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:10,650 whenever so I can actually tell you what I think is in it or 932 00:56:10,650 --> 00:56:17,820 what it says. But when you see pence behind Trump, he you know, 933 00:56:17,850 --> 00:56:21,150 you just gotta wonder what's going on in that guy's mind. And 934 00:56:21,150 --> 00:56:24,840 his eyes. His eyes are kind of like little slitty slits. And 935 00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:27,270 he's kind of just looking off. He's always looking around. 936 00:56:27,270 --> 00:56:32,280 Someone said, what if pence? Maybe, you know, depends has 937 00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:34,590 quite a team. Yeah, he's all he's already registered to run 938 00:56:34,590 --> 00:56:35,910 for president, I think has any? 939 00:56:36,870 --> 00:56:39,660 I don't know. Could be Yeah, make sense? 940 00:56:40,170 --> 00:56:45,540 Yeah. And he specifically is very adamant about not being in 941 00:56:45,540 --> 00:56:48,150 a room with another woman. Without his wife. 942 00:56:48,420 --> 00:56:49,980 He's really adamant about that he's 943 00:56:49,980 --> 00:56:51,990 got maybe this is his long game. 944 00:56:53,760 --> 00:56:56,460 This would be a great long game. I mean, it's also possible. We 945 00:56:56,460 --> 00:56:59,700 don't know any of this. But it's also possible, we just look at 946 00:56:59,700 --> 00:57:03,630 possibilities. That trout Trump, I had told pence, he's only 947 00:57:03,630 --> 00:57:05,580 going to be in for one turn, because he's going to be too old 948 00:57:05,580 --> 00:57:08,340 to get keep going on this stupid job. And I think that's what he 949 00:57:08,340 --> 00:57:14,250 thinks of it. And he had Dan pinch to groom himself to run 950 00:57:14,250 --> 00:57:17,730 against you know, Gillibrand will be one of the competitors. 951 00:57:17,730 --> 00:57:22,530 I have some information about that she's being promoted as a 952 00:57:22,530 --> 00:57:25,620 presidential candidate in a number of different venues. Yes. 953 00:57:25,620 --> 00:57:28,740 Oh, well, I have to do is read the latest article on her in 954 00:57:28,740 --> 00:57:32,100 Vogue magazine, which I was reading a part of before the 955 00:57:32,100 --> 00:57:32,550 show. 956 00:57:33,030 --> 00:57:37,110 And from your personal copy, printed it out. 957 00:57:37,710 --> 00:57:44,010 And Vogue magazine, you know, is is designed, it has a it has a 958 00:57:44,010 --> 00:57:46,770 target audience. Let's put it that way that is it very 959 00:57:46,770 --> 00:57:48,660 susceptible to this sort of thing. Let me read from the 960 00:57:48,660 --> 00:57:52,650 wall, especially when Vogue had that entire pictorial of teenage 961 00:57:52,650 --> 00:57:56,460 girls. 13 year old girls dressed up as sluts. And do you remember 962 00:57:56,460 --> 00:57:59,280 that I haven't forgotten that. Being it ladies and gentlemen, 963 00:57:59,310 --> 00:58:04,680 being it being.io Bing it. And you can see, this was really, 964 00:58:04,740 --> 00:58:08,220 really disturbing. But yeah, okay. So Vogue magazine. Yeah, 965 00:58:08,250 --> 00:58:10,320 they are on top of the morality tree. 966 00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:14,610 Yeah. And it was, you know, was renamed the president of Planned 967 00:58:14,610 --> 00:58:20,460 Parenthood. What's her name? The good looking woman who's mean? 968 00:58:21,240 --> 00:58:24,240 President Planned Parenthood. She says she came and spoke 969 00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:29,400 George Richardson. Yeah. Camila. Wherever. Camille? Yeah. 970 00:58:29,430 --> 00:58:32,790 Camille, Camille. She came and spoke to our national convention 971 00:58:32,790 --> 00:58:35,190 this year. And she just got people on their feet. She has a 972 00:58:35,190 --> 00:58:38,490 bridge talking about Gillibrand. She has a personality and a 973 00:58:38,490 --> 00:58:41,910 drive that people relate to people outside New York. And to 974 00:58:41,910 --> 00:58:45,600 me, that's exciting. Can she imagine Gillibrand running for 975 00:58:45,600 --> 00:58:50,970 president? Quote, I can imagine Kirsten, doing anything she puts 976 00:58:50,970 --> 00:58:55,980 her mind to. And there's a drought, this article is 977 00:58:55,980 --> 00:58:59,190 different. The writer is asking people whether she'd be a good 978 00:58:59,190 --> 00:59:02,520 president, or should should you run in 2020. And I think she's, 979 00:59:02,550 --> 00:59:05,880 she's one of them, women that are gonna run in 2020. And I 980 00:59:05,910 --> 00:59:10,740 also see that I was if you read Jilla brands, bio in the 981 00:59:10,740 --> 00:59:14,340 Wikipedia, she also played dirty when she ran for Congress, to 982 00:59:14,340 --> 00:59:17,700 the point where the wife of the guy she beat in a republican 983 00:59:17,760 --> 00:59:21,270 district said it was the filthiest thing she's ever seen. 984 00:59:21,270 --> 00:59:24,960 She was very she was just, she was completely discouraged by 985 00:59:24,960 --> 00:59:28,500 out What a nasty woman does Gillibrand is even though she 986 00:59:28,500 --> 00:59:31,500 seems so sweet and she's a Hillary. She's a Hillary 987 00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:34,890 protege. In fact, the Vogue magazine article written about 988 00:59:34,890 --> 00:59:40,110 her again seven years earlier by the same writer. I think the 989 00:59:40,110 --> 00:59:43,560 title of that is called the Hillary's protege something like 990 00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:47,670 that. So she's, she's, she's healer in the pocket. And I 991 00:59:47,670 --> 00:59:51,030 think that there is a I think there's in the Democratic Party. 992 00:59:51,030 --> 00:59:54,540 I think there is a split between the Clinton faction and the 993 00:59:54,570 --> 00:59:58,320 Obama faction, which represents the Kennedy faction, I think the 994 00:59:58,320 --> 01:00:00,780 Kennedy faction and the Obama faction. On one side of the 995 01:00:01,020 --> 01:00:04,320 aisle and I think the Clinton factions on the other within the 996 01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:08,340 party and I think that Kamala Harris or Kamal or whatever you 997 01:00:08,340 --> 01:00:12,660 want to call them alto. Harris is you'd be fired for that. 998 01:00:13,560 --> 01:00:17,760 Kamala Harris is the is going to be representing the the other 999 01:00:17,760 --> 01:00:21,150 side of this argument she's going to run for president and 1000 01:00:21,150 --> 01:00:26,730 she's the black woman and the Kirsten and whoever else thinks 1001 01:00:26,730 --> 01:00:29,640 they're gonna run. I think Cory Booker, who I believe is 1002 01:00:29,640 --> 01:00:32,580 probably even though he's black is probably on the Clinton side 1003 01:00:32,580 --> 01:00:36,060 of the equation. It's going to be more interesting this next 1004 01:00:36,060 --> 01:00:40,890 and 2020 but whether Trump runs in 2020 and I think he might if 1005 01:00:41,160 --> 01:00:45,300 people like Kirsten run, because I think he just likes to 1006 01:00:45,300 --> 01:00:48,570 ridicule people like that. It's just interesting. It's going to 1007 01:00:48,570 --> 01:00:49,890 be a very interesting lead in 1008 01:00:51,000 --> 01:00:54,390 and this completes your sexual harassment update. 1009 01:00:56,760 --> 01:00:58,680 With that, I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the 1010 01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:02,610 morning to you John C. Where the C stands for crack of harass 1011 01:01:02,640 --> 01:01:03,990 Devorah Ack. 1012 01:01:04,290 --> 01:01:07,770 Any morning you and Mr. Adam curry, and Mr. Chips his team 1013 01:01:07,770 --> 01:01:10,050 boots on the ground feet in the air subs in the water all the 1014 01:01:10,050 --> 01:01:11,190 days and nights out there 1015 01:01:11,250 --> 01:01:15,600 and in the morning to the troll room, no agenda stream.com Nice 1016 01:01:15,600 --> 01:01:18,900 to have everybody on board just stop telling me to invest in 1017 01:01:18,930 --> 01:01:23,070 cryptocurrencies, please is not helpful for the show. And in the 1018 01:01:23,070 --> 01:01:27,000 morning to Mike Riley brought us the artwork for episode nine or 1019 01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:31,890 eight nine titled that stick control stick controls that he 1020 01:01:31,890 --> 01:01:35,670 gave us the artwork friend of pecker it was the National 1021 01:01:35,670 --> 01:01:42,630 Enquirer mock up with Trump and Weinstein. And we use it even 1022 01:01:42,630 --> 01:01:46,710 though we really typically discourage the use of an episode 1023 01:01:46,710 --> 01:01:49,410 number because it had the episode number in the artwork. 1024 01:01:50,640 --> 01:01:54,600 Yes, we don't like that because sometimes the artwork can be 1025 01:01:54,600 --> 01:01:59,280 used. I mean, we have a lot of artwork that's backed up. And 1026 01:01:59,430 --> 01:02:02,730 sometimes it might be useful in another future show or in a 1027 01:02:02,730 --> 01:02:06,090 newsletter, excuse me, or in a lot of different venues. 1028 01:02:07,290 --> 01:02:16,140 But limited to one shot, right? I don't like it. But we do have 1029 01:02:16,140 --> 01:02:16,800 a few people 1030 01:02:16,800 --> 01:02:21,210 to thank who we do like James Lawler says top of the list and 1031 01:02:21,210 --> 01:02:24,270 we have this very strange list because we have James Lawler at 1032 01:02:24,270 --> 01:02:28,410 333 33 And then Michael zero minutes 333 Then 333 And then 1033 01:02:28,410 --> 01:02:34,410 333 00 And then 300 And then two to two. It's just very unusual. 1034 01:02:34,410 --> 01:02:38,160 There's no variety here of donation numbers. Yeah, it 1035 01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:41,550 was it was there a call out for 330 For some reason 1036 01:02:41,580 --> 01:02:47,340 whatsoever. Interesting. Zip.

What do you think? 1203 01:13:45,870 --> 01:13:46,440 What do you think? 1204 01:13:46,740 --> 01:13:49,500 If you're gonna play spot the spook?

Who was Jeremy 1210 01:14:06,900 --> 01:14:16,710 bash again? Oh, yes, former CIA chief of staff but then she 1211 01:14:16,710 --> 01:14:21,990 married fellow CNN correspondent John King in 2008 gave birth to 1212 01:14:21,990 --> 01:14:27,840 his son in June 2011 And then they separated in 2012. And 1213 01:14:27,840 --> 01:14:30,090 they're now working together although I've noticed there's no 1214 01:14:30,090 --> 01:14:33,210 tossing back and forth you're like Hey Dana, what do you think 1215 01:14:33,210 --> 01:14:34,530 and we she goes Thanks John. 1216 01:14:34,770 --> 01:14:39,480 Dec none of that. Anyway the the kid was a gray 1217 01:14:40,830 --> 01:14:44,400 I just just needed to remind everybody how the Operation 1218 01:14:44,400 --> 01:14:49,710 Mockingbird is still alive and well she's a spook came right 1219 01:14:49,710 --> 01:14:51,960 behind it she's a spook got married to this be met the spook 1220 01:14:51,960 --> 01:14:52,650 in this book. 1221 01:14:52,770 --> 01:14:55,530 Spoke John King always looked like a spook. He 1222 01:14:55,530 --> 01:14:58,620 may he may be a spook, although he has a very serious 1223 01:14:58,620 --> 01:15:02,070 journalistic background. I started it I actually I got 1224 01:15:02,070 --> 01:15:06,030 pulled his his LinkedIn to hold him. Yeah, no, I think it was 1225 01:15:06,030 --> 01:15:08,850 completely incompatible. Those two maybe he found out like what 1226 01:15:08,940 --> 01:15:09,630 your spook 1227 01:15:10,950 --> 01:15:13,770 would be here. Some guys don't like career, career 1228 01:15:14,400 --> 01:15:18,780 85 He joined Associated Press. He started as a writer. In 91, 1229 01:15:18,780 --> 01:15:21,360 he was named chief political correspondent head of the APS 1230 01:15:21,360 --> 01:15:27,840 political coverage. Then he won the 91 top reporting prize from 1231 01:15:27,870 --> 01:15:30,660 a piece managing editors association for his coverage of 1232 01:15:30,660 --> 01:15:34,890 the Gulf War. Here's what happened. He was like, you know, 1233 01:15:34,920 --> 01:15:38,040 he couldn't live with her. You walked in as a spook and I had 1234 01:15:38,040 --> 01:15:40,560 to start as a writer and Associated Press. 1235 01:15:41,400 --> 01:15:45,450 Yes, she gets right to the top. Yeah. It's very hard to go from 1236 01:15:45,540 --> 01:15:48,450 Associated Press into one of the front ends or 1237 01:15:49,170 --> 01:15:54,900 anything. It's any job after that is tough. Anyway, I just 1238 01:15:54,900 --> 01:15:57,600 thought I'd mentioned that because it just popped in my 1239 01:15:57,600 --> 01:16:00,450 head and just want to make sure everybody remembers where the 1240 01:16:00,450 --> 01:16:01,020 spooks our 1241 01:16:01,650 --> 01:16:04,590 faces are crawling with these guys, and they're very biased 1242 01:16:04,590 --> 01:16:06,390 and they they're given their marching orders and they do what 1243 01:16:06,390 --> 01:16:09,150 they're told. And they can't talk about it because they've 1244 01:16:09,150 --> 01:16:12,660 signed these agreements and their lifetime. So they can't 1245 01:16:12,660 --> 01:16:15,750 mention anything so it's crazy and why we put up with it is 1246 01:16:15,750 --> 01:16:20,700 beyond me. Think nondisclosure agreements should be outlawed. 1247 01:16:21,240 --> 01:16:25,560 Yeah. Yeah. All non disclosures all including government when 1248 01:16:25,560 --> 01:16:26,910 should all be outlawed? Silicon 1249 01:16:26,910 --> 01:16:29,670 Valley is filled with non disclosure. We know that 1250 01:16:29,670 --> 01:16:32,610 most of them are already did courts have already deployed 1251 01:16:32,610 --> 01:16:35,430 it and just to call this a call back all of us to call one of 1252 01:16:35,430 --> 01:16:38,400 the women of tech going to out some of these aihole tech 1253 01:16:38,400 --> 01:16:40,170 reporters. Okay, 1254 01:16:40,200 --> 01:16:45,990 I'm just saying they doubted Biddle. That's one that's one. 1255 01:16:46,560 --> 01:16:49,230 Yeah, there's some people that I know for a fact that have gone 1256 01:16:49,230 --> 01:16:52,500 from job to job because they've been fired for sexual harassment 1257 01:16:52,500 --> 01:16:53,760 and there they weren't. And why are 1258 01:16:53,760 --> 01:17:00,180 the women of technology Tech Tech? Why are they so why are 1259 01:17:00,180 --> 01:17:03,810 they what are they afraid of? Is it such a great place? Someone 1260 01:17:03,810 --> 01:17:06,360 has such power over the technology right? I don't know. 1261 01:17:06,810 --> 01:17:10,770 But there's a lot of a lot of technology publications you and 1262 01:17:10,770 --> 01:17:14,100 I know a lot of people there certainly do to reduce dues 1263 01:17:14,100 --> 01:17:14,610 dudes 1264 01:17:17,520 --> 01:17:18,450 disappointed 1265 01:17:19,170 --> 01:17:22,260 Yeah, well, they got a pass for some reason. I guess name is 1266 01:17:22,260 --> 01:17:24,450 Alec Baldwin, Johnny dab. 1267 01:17:24,570 --> 01:17:27,570 I mean, Alec Baldwin. That is really for the guy who eat 1268 01:17:27,570 --> 01:17:31,230 called a way let me call the Gay Guy of fag on the streets. 1269 01:17:31,650 --> 01:17:34,560 He's done. Oh, can I say he's a re did some race stuff. I think 1270 01:17:34,560 --> 01:17:38,340 he's used the N word maybe I'm not sure what the racial thing 1271 01:17:38,340 --> 01:17:42,840 was. But he did a slur and that crazy recording and his way 1272 01:17:42,840 --> 01:17:45,510 treated Kim Basinger, you know his wife, 1273 01:17:45,540 --> 01:17:49,590 which just treating Kim Baysinger poorly is egregious in 1274 01:17:49,590 --> 01:17:50,490 my book any day. 1275 01:17:52,050 --> 01:17:54,720 We will you don't know she's not nuts. But 1276 01:17:55,200 --> 01:17:59,100 well, you always warn me Don't marry an actress. Yeah. 1277 01:18:00,060 --> 01:18:03,630 You don't know. But she's, you think that you'd be you know, 1278 01:18:04,770 --> 01:18:07,800 has no signs of that she doesn't ever flipped out in public or 1279 01:18:07,800 --> 01:18:12,180 anything. She's Gora phobic, which is kind of nutty. 1280 01:18:13,230 --> 01:18:15,150 And how do you know this? 1281 01:18:15,570 --> 01:18:18,180 It was a big deal. They were talking about it during this 1282 01:18:18,240 --> 01:18:21,990 during this era when Alec was having trouble with his 11 year 1283 01:18:21,990 --> 01:18:25,200 old. They talked about Kim being an agoraphobic it could have 1284 01:18:25,200 --> 01:18:28,260 been a smear, what is it Gore phobic again, that means you 1285 01:18:28,260 --> 01:18:33,660 can't leave the house. Ah. You know, people in this, there's 1286 01:18:33,660 --> 01:18:37,260 been movies about it. And it's always hard to understand. But 1287 01:18:37,260 --> 01:18:39,330 it's the guys who stay here in the house, they can't get out. 1288 01:18:39,360 --> 01:18:42,930 They sort of tried to go outside and maybe they get the mail and 1289 01:18:42,930 --> 01:18:44,820 they gotta rush back in the house because they don't feel 1290 01:18:44,820 --> 01:18:48,150 safe in public. And it's a real problem. 1291 01:18:48,210 --> 01:18:52,530 Alright, so we have this election, this special election, 1292 01:18:52,890 --> 01:18:56,010 which interestingly, Europe is all over and I was reading the 1293 01:18:56,010 --> 01:19:02,430 morning publications in Gitmo nation, Europe, US. And 1294 01:19:02,430 --> 01:19:08,400 everyone's like, Ah, it's the start of a new world. Like Ah, 1295 01:19:08,430 --> 01:19:11,700 finally, finally, things are turning around in America. 1296 01:19:12,269 --> 01:19:14,999 Well, there was a couple of anomalies in this thing that I 1297 01:19:14,999 --> 01:19:18,209 had to look into to find out what really happened. None of 1298 01:19:18,209 --> 01:19:21,419 the network's and I mean, none of them. And even the people who 1299 01:19:21,479 --> 01:19:24,569 actually gave me the information I needed to figure out what was 1300 01:19:24,569 --> 01:19:28,619 going on here. The whole thing again, this is again, they're 1301 01:19:28,649 --> 01:19:33,059 Democrats spinning their wheels was about Trump. Yep, this guy 1302 01:19:33,059 --> 01:19:37,859 was a bad guy. And and if you listen to Amy Goodman, I think I 1303 01:19:37,859 --> 01:19:40,049 have one I have a couple of clips from her but I gotta get 1304 01:19:40,049 --> 01:19:42,599 the right one because they don't want to mix these up. 1305 01:19:45,120 --> 01:19:48,450 This is slightly twisted analysis, maybe? 1306 01:19:48,660 --> 01:19:50,610 Yes, this listen, I just want you to hear 1307 01:19:50,610 --> 01:19:55,020 this. Tuesday's vote was highly divided by race and gender, with 1308 01:19:55,020 --> 01:19:58,110 African American voters, particularly women largely 1309 01:19:58,110 --> 01:20:02,370 responsible for defeating Roy Moore Are overall 96% of African 1310 01:20:02,370 --> 01:20:06,870 American voters voted for Doug Jones with a staggering 98% of 1311 01:20:06,870 --> 01:20:11,580 all black women voting for Jones. In contrast, nearly 70% 1312 01:20:11,580 --> 01:20:16,620 of white voters voted for Roy Moore, a full 63% of white women 1313 01:20:16,620 --> 01:20:20,310 voted for more despite more being accused by multiple women 1314 01:20:20,310 --> 01:20:22,770 of sexually harassing or assaulting them when they were 1315 01:20:22,770 --> 01:20:27,540 teenagers. One as young as 14, Democratic strategist Simone 1316 01:20:27,540 --> 01:20:30,660 Sanders, who served as Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders press 1317 01:20:30,660 --> 01:20:33,570 secretary during his presidential campaign said 1318 01:20:33,570 --> 01:20:37,260 quote, Doug Jones would not have won today without the turnout we 1319 01:20:37,260 --> 01:20:40,440 saw from African American voters. Black women have been 1320 01:20:40,440 --> 01:20:43,770 absolutely clear in their support for democratic policies 1321 01:20:43,770 --> 01:20:47,190 and Democratic candidates. It's high time for Democrats to 1322 01:20:47,190 --> 01:20:48,930 invest in that effort. 1323 01:20:50,070 --> 01:20:53,100 Okay, so that was like, you know, that was kind of her 1324 01:20:53,100 --> 01:20:56,580 breakdown of what was going on. It was very, I thought it was 1325 01:20:56,580 --> 01:20:59,760 loosely explained, there was no real reason for a lot of these 1326 01:20:59,910 --> 01:21:03,270 phenomenons to be taking place. And here's a clip I wanted you 1327 01:21:03,270 --> 01:21:06,810 to play and I didn't find it. Sorry, more support from Trump. 1328 01:21:07,440 --> 01:21:11,040 But President Donald Trump, who repeatedly endorsed Roy Moore 1329 01:21:11,040 --> 01:21:12,840 did acknowledge Morris defeat 1330 01:21:12,840 --> 01:21:16,080 tweeting. Okay, 1331 01:21:16,679 --> 01:21:19,439 this is bullcrap, then Amy Goodman should be ashamed of 1332 01:21:19,439 --> 01:21:25,949 herself. Donald Trump promoted this guy Luther strange. To be 1333 01:21:25,979 --> 01:21:30,419 more now I want you to listen to any of the newscast. Nobody 1334 01:21:30,419 --> 01:21:33,929 mentions this. All they do is mention the very end where Trump 1335 01:21:33,929 --> 01:21:35,849 had without it. He had no choice. He's the guy who's a 1336 01:21:35,849 --> 01:21:38,369 Republican. What's he supposed to do? I mean, other people 1337 01:21:38,369 --> 01:21:40,679 didn't vote for him. And they said they were Republicans but 1338 01:21:40,739 --> 01:21:41,729 no, no, no, it was 1339 01:21:41,730 --> 01:21:44,970 so it was so poorly explained. Tina, and I had to look up the 1340 01:21:44,970 --> 01:21:48,420 whole history of the special election to get even get to the 1341 01:21:48,420 --> 01:21:51,720 strain to Luther strip, lose a stranger's name. Yeah, you're 1342 01:21:51,720 --> 01:21:54,270 right. It was because no one cares about delivering any 1343 01:21:54,270 --> 01:21:56,100 information. No, so 1344 01:21:56,100 --> 01:21:57,690 screw Luther strange here. We 1345 01:21:57,690 --> 01:22:01,710 just want to hate Trump hate the president. 2018 2020. 1346 01:22:03,630 --> 01:22:07,470 Here is the make it time yeah, I'm 1347 01:22:07,470 --> 01:22:08,250 writing it down. 1348 01:22:09,630 --> 01:22:11,610 Yeah, you win that you win that voice. 1349 01:22:12,780 --> 01:22:14,070 That's what it sounds like to me. 1350 01:22:15,960 --> 01:22:20,580 Now I got some tidbits of of the election from PBS and I want you 1351 01:22:20,580 --> 01:22:25,020 to play this one. This is the more Jones PBS. tidbits Trump 1352 01:22:25,860 --> 01:22:28,980 and the wrong one queued up at Trump. Yep. 1353 01:22:29,220 --> 01:22:37,410 We want jobs, jobs, jobs. So get out and vote for Roy Moore. 1354 01:22:39,840 --> 01:22:41,370 Jobs, jobs. 1355 01:22:49,680 --> 01:22:50,460 wouldn't stop. 1356 01:22:51,180 --> 01:22:57,390 This was a video clip of Trump supporting more. He had the most 1357 01:22:57,390 --> 01:23:01,980 bored look on his face. He said V support Roy Moore in a down 1358 01:23:01,980 --> 01:23:06,000 tone. Right. And he and he threw his arms out as though What am I 1359 01:23:06,000 --> 01:23:09,570 supposed to do? I didn't want this guy. I wasn't for this guy. 1360 01:23:09,720 --> 01:23:12,720 I was for Luther strange. Anybody but this guy. In fact, 1361 01:23:12,930 --> 01:23:18,570 there was people that wouldn't vote for this guy. And it so But 1362 01:23:18,570 --> 01:23:21,990 meanwhile, the media plays at the oh, he was a huge fan of 1363 01:23:21,990 --> 01:23:28,110 this guy more. Like Roy Moore was a douche bag. Yeah, he was a 1364 01:23:28,380 --> 01:23:33,480 Bible thumping, douche bag period. He's always dumping the 1365 01:23:33,480 --> 01:23:36,210 Bible. He wanted to know separation of church and state. 1366 01:23:36,210 --> 01:23:40,230 He said all these things. He was just any like a chase teenagers 1367 01:23:40,230 --> 01:23:44,760 when he was in his 30s which may or may not have been okay. The 1368 01:23:44,760 --> 01:23:48,630 point is, is that he was for a guy such a religious zealot. You 1369 01:23:48,630 --> 01:23:52,950 think you have a little bit, you know, integrity. Yeah. And some 1370 01:23:52,950 --> 01:23:56,370 and he also looked like a creep.

In the closing days, he was dogged 1381 01:24:27,720 --> 01:24:31,350 by decades old accusations of sexual misconduct with 1382 01:24:31,350 --> 01:24:36,150 teenagers. Thank you.

The African American community thank you. 1413 01:26:11,400 --> 01:26:15,030 shows his improbable victory was fueled by a diverse coalition, 1414 01:26:15,030 --> 01:26:18,180 including strong support from African American voters. 1415 01:26:27,540 --> 01:26:32,310 Today, exit polls show that 96% of African American voters 1416 01:26:32,310 --> 01:26:36,810 supported Jones, they made up 29% of the electorate, about the 1417 01:26:36,810 --> 01:26:40,740 same as turned out for President Barack Obama's 2012 re election. 1418 01:26:41,250 --> 01:26:44,550 basketball legend Charles Barkley and Alabama native said 1419 01:26:44,550 --> 01:26:46,590 it was a wake up call for Democrats, 1420 01:26:47,130 --> 01:26:50,640 it's time for them to get off their ass and start making life 1421 01:26:50,640 --> 01:26:53,820 better for black folks, and people who are poor. 1422 01:26:55,260 --> 01:26:58,470 All right. Now, the thing that got me is is almost you know, 1423 01:26:58,470 --> 01:27:01,290 they the way they present this, and I think it's a racist way of 1424 01:27:01,290 --> 01:27:06,990 doing it. They present as 96 98% of women in particular of the 1425 01:27:06,990 --> 01:27:10,440 black community came out and they ultimately everybody voted, 1426 01:27:10,560 --> 01:27:13,230 they all came out and voted higher than any normal special 1427 01:27:13,230 --> 01:27:16,680 election. And then you in the way it's presented as well. It's 1428 01:27:16,680 --> 01:27:20,220 because blacks are just a bunch of dumb fuck, Democrats will 1429 01:27:20,250 --> 01:27:25,920 always vote for the Democrat. That's the way it's being 1430 01:27:25,920 --> 01:27:29,310 presented the way I see it, and they keep harping on this black 1431 01:27:29,340 --> 01:27:32,520 all the blacks voted for the guy, and it just as discouraging 1432 01:27:32,520 --> 01:27:34,770 because, uh, well, I guess blacks can think for themselves. 1433 01:27:35,340 --> 01:27:38,970 What they don't realize is that there's a history here with Doug 1434 01:27:38,970 --> 01:27:44,130 Jones. And it's major, major major for the black community. 1435 01:27:44,130 --> 01:27:50,310 This is a major, isn't it? It's major. And the thing is, is that 1436 01:27:50,340 --> 01:27:54,450 nobody brings this up, and I never heard this until I enjoy 1437 01:27:54,720 --> 01:27:57,480 Amy Goodman who didn't even realize what she what she was 1438 01:27:57,480 --> 01:28:00,330 talking about what she was dealing with here did a little 1439 01:28:00,330 --> 01:28:04,470 interview with a reporter from Mother Jones, a woman who 1440 01:28:04,500 --> 01:28:09,270 explains and when you hear the story, you're going to hear the 1441 01:28:09,270 --> 01:28:12,720 black community in this deep south have a long memory and 1442 01:28:12,720 --> 01:28:17,640 they and and I think the White Professor they have a long 1443 01:28:17,640 --> 01:28:19,890 memory when it comes to something like you're gonna hear 1444 01:28:20,220 --> 01:28:23,700 because they've been putting up with a lot of crap for a long 1445 01:28:23,700 --> 01:28:27,750 time. And yeah, I guess it's racist. But listen to this and 1446 01:28:27,750 --> 01:28:31,530 you're gonna understand why, why this Doug Jones guy is not only 1447 01:28:31,650 --> 01:28:36,540 a superhero, but he could be a presidential candidate and 1448 01:28:36,540 --> 01:28:39,330 that's why Trump me who wants to warm up to the guy because this 1449 01:28:39,330 --> 01:28:43,470 guy, what he did is beyond compare. 1450 01:28:43,500 --> 01:28:48,360 That's Doug Jones significantly quoting Dr. Martin Luther King, 1451 01:28:48,630 --> 01:28:54,750 explain Doug Jones history as a prosecutor prosecute cuting Ku 1452 01:28:54,750 --> 01:28:57,840 Klux Klan members who are involved with the bombing of the 1453 01:28:57,840 --> 01:29:04,560 16th Street Church in Birmingham, Alabama in 1963. Of 1454 01:29:04,590 --> 01:29:06,960 course, the prosecution happened much later than that. 1455 01:29:07,830 --> 01:29:12,120 Yes, it did. You know, when that bomb went off in 1963, the 1456 01:29:12,120 --> 01:29:16,680 situation in Birmingham was that the police were essentially in 1457 01:29:16,680 --> 01:29:21,060 cahoots with the kk k. And you know, it was impossible to put 1458 01:29:21,060 --> 01:29:24,810 on a trial and bring the bombers to justice. And so they they 1459 01:29:24,810 --> 01:29:27,600 were not tried for a long time. One of them was put away in the 1460 01:29:27,600 --> 01:29:31,650 70s when Alabama elected a progressive Attorney General, 1461 01:29:32,130 --> 01:29:35,340 but that person could not get the support of the FBI to go 1462 01:29:35,340 --> 01:29:38,820 further. And so it was not until the late 90s When Doug Jones was 1463 01:29:38,820 --> 01:29:41,970 a federal prosecutor in Birmingham that they were able 1464 01:29:41,970 --> 01:29:44,190 to put this together and Jones you know, I've talked to people 1465 01:29:44,190 --> 01:29:46,500 who worked with him on this case who are in his office and they 1466 01:29:46,500 --> 01:29:50,370 said, you know, this was a meticulous dog ID three year 1467 01:29:50,370 --> 01:29:54,450 process. Jones did an incredible amount of work. It was not 1468 01:29:54,450 --> 01:29:57,270 guaranteed. You know, you have a cold case it's 40 years old. 1469 01:29:57,570 --> 01:30:00,900 That is a remarkable thing to be able to pull off and And Jones, 1470 01:30:01,020 --> 01:30:03,870 you know, by all accounts was incredibly dedicated to bringing 1471 01:30:03,870 --> 01:30:06,540 these people to justice and for turning a page in Alabama 1472 01:30:06,540 --> 01:30:09,660 history. And so you, I think see that again last night in his 1473 01:30:09,660 --> 01:30:12,240 speech, the idea that, you know, the Alabama that he knows and 1474 01:30:12,240 --> 01:30:16,440 loves is not the one that we think of when we read about the 1475 01:30:16,440 --> 01:30:19,530 1960s. And we hear about the bombings, and he wants to sort 1476 01:30:19,530 --> 01:30:22,200 of turn that page and Wow. 1477 01:30:24,720 --> 01:30:33,930 No, no, no, no Ding, ding is not sufficient. Clear? Cheese. You 1478 01:30:33,930 --> 01:30:38,730 know, all I heard from anybody who was about Doug Jones. Well, 1479 01:30:38,730 --> 01:30:41,790 they use this racist poster, this racist ad. That's all I 1480 01:30:41,790 --> 01:30:44,790 heard. Yeah, well, you 1481 01:30:44,790 --> 01:30:47,310 didn't hear this. Oh, no. 1482 01:30:47,880 --> 01:30:53,880 So he opened up these cases, how 40 years later? Yeah, she's 1483 01:30:54,630 --> 01:30:58,350 and found the guy is guilty. No, thanks to the FBI and the 1484 01:30:58,350 --> 01:30:59,940 corrupt police. Ca. 1485 01:31:01,440 --> 01:31:04,380 Yeah, so now I see what you're saying. He's a massive 1486 01:31:04,380 --> 01:31:07,350 candidate. But he's not. He's not female or black. That's a 1487 01:31:07,350 --> 01:31:07,890 problem. 1488 01:31:08,669 --> 01:31:12,989 No, yeah. He might as well be black. He's got the black 1489 01:31:12,989 --> 01:31:17,459 community behind him big time. And that's the reason is not 1490 01:31:17,459 --> 01:31:20,429 because they just vote Democrat. Ha. 1491 01:31:22,620 --> 01:31:26,160 That's baffling as No, actually why am I why am I surprised? 1492 01:31:26,550 --> 01:31:29,700 Yes, it's our show. Why are you surprised? Yeah. 1493 01:31:29,700 --> 01:31:32,310 What am I thinking? Oh, 1494 01:31:33,840 --> 01:31:36,960 okay. That's a piece of news. I didn't know well, yeah. That's 1495 01:31:36,960 --> 01:31:40,500 the guy to vote for. Yeah. No doubt about it. Particularly in 1496 01:31:40,500 --> 01:31:44,520 the south, particularly if you're black. Yeah, man have and 1497 01:31:44,520 --> 01:31:47,910 have all that history there. Cheese. Nice. All right. Nice. 1498 01:31:48,810 --> 01:31:49,140 Good 1499 01:31:49,350 --> 01:31:52,710 evening, Amy. Even Amy had to keep it on. Oh, it's you know, 1500 01:31:52,710 --> 01:31:55,500 sexual Trump. You know, they were man, you 1501 01:31:56,190 --> 01:31:58,890 know, had nothing to do with it. It's just this makes total 1502 01:31:58,890 --> 01:31:59,430 sense. 1503 01:32:00,210 --> 01:32:03,750 Yeah, it makes nothing but sense. I'd vote for the guy. 1504 01:32:03,780 --> 01:32:07,920 Yeah. And jurors Republican as they come. 1505 01:32:08,009 --> 01:32:10,559 I'm not Republican. I'm an independent. I got my card 1506 01:32:10,559 --> 01:32:12,179 carrying I get an independent Ghana card. 1507 01:32:12,420 --> 01:32:14,820 No, oh, you show me your card. Show me I was vice write your 1508 01:32:14,820 --> 01:32:17,040 papers. Show me your papers, man. 1509 01:32:17,550 --> 01:32:21,000 Anyway, so that concludes that whole thing. And when I heard 1510 01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:24,570 that, by the way, I was really irked. And I was irked at the 1511 01:32:24,570 --> 01:32:28,800 media. The media has given us none of this background. They 1512 01:32:28,800 --> 01:32:31,980 all they did was they're looking for more ways to slam Trump and 1513 01:32:31,980 --> 01:32:35,520 the Republicans. It's pathetic. And now they're extrapolating. 1514 01:32:35,520 --> 01:32:38,580 Oh, this is a big turning point for the party. The Democrats 1515 01:32:38,580 --> 01:32:44,220 have got to got him on the run. So they're in for a big shock 1516 01:32:44,220 --> 01:32:47,670 when a lot of people in fact, Schumer came out with that some 1517 01:32:47,670 --> 01:32:51,690 commentary. There was like, oh, yeah, let me see if I can find 1518 01:32:51,690 --> 01:32:55,470 this is like, I think there's a Schumer clip in here. Polar Bear 1519 01:32:55,470 --> 01:33:00,930 Facebook warning. Where are you Schumer? Polar Bear tea. There 1520 01:33:00,930 --> 01:33:03,720 it is. This is that this is the next issue that I want to talk a 1521 01:33:03,720 --> 01:33:07,590 little bit about, which is the tax bill. But you listen to 1522 01:33:07,590 --> 01:33:10,800 Schumer and Schumer was this about the tax bills, not about 1523 01:33:10,800 --> 01:33:14,730 this election. But these Democrats. They're I think 1524 01:33:14,730 --> 01:33:17,250 they're frightened to death because they don't know what's 1525 01:33:17,250 --> 01:33:21,360 going on. They don't know what to do about it. They're, you 1526 01:33:21,360 --> 01:33:21,900 know, they're, 1527 01:33:22,440 --> 01:33:23,220 they have no 1528 01:33:24,630 --> 01:33:28,290 topic of conversation. They have no, nothing they're promoting, 1529 01:33:28,290 --> 01:33:31,770 that's positive. They just, it's all anti Trump, and it's also 1530 01:33:31,770 --> 01:33:37,080 the anti anti tax bill. Let's play Schumer and I want you to 1531 01:33:37,110 --> 01:33:39,420 give me I'm gonna ask you a question about logic 1532 01:33:40,019 --> 01:33:43,559 for Christmas. And when I say giant, I mean giant. 1533 01:33:44,220 --> 01:33:47,340 Meanwhile, Democrats argue the bill would hurt middle class 1534 01:33:47,340 --> 01:33:50,820 families, while giving permanent tax breaks to the wealthy. 1535 01:33:51,000 --> 01:33:54,270 Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer referencing last night's 1536 01:33:54,270 --> 01:33:58,170 Senate election in Alabama warned Republicans that passing 1537 01:33:58,170 --> 01:34:02,070 the current tax bill would unleash political backlash in 1538 01:34:02,070 --> 01:34:03,300 the midterm elections. 1539 01:34:04,050 --> 01:34:07,170 Our hope is that Mitch McConnell will hear what the voters in the 1540 01:34:07,170 --> 01:34:11,940 suburbs of Alabama said, help us. It's our hope that Mitch 1541 01:34:11,940 --> 01:34:15,030 McConnell will realize proceeding with this tax bill 1542 01:34:16,200 --> 01:34:21,840 will be a dramatic, dramatic death knell for the Republican 1543 01:34:21,840 --> 01:34:23,370 Party in 2018. 1544 01:34:25,980 --> 01:34:29,400 All right now, is He? Is he a consultant for the Republicans? 1545 01:34:32,400 --> 01:34:33,450 You should be 1546 01:34:34,530 --> 01:34:39,000 what what does he care that the Republicans do? Wouldn't he want 1547 01:34:39,000 --> 01:34:41,760 that? Wouldn't he want the Republicans to fall apart in 1548 01:34:41,760 --> 01:34:45,030 2018 and lose all their seats? Wouldn't? Isn't that something 1549 01:34:45,030 --> 01:34:50,760 logically that he'd desire? Yeah. Well, then why would he 1550 01:34:50,760 --> 01:34:54,690 say any of this? I don't know. Because he's full of crap. 1551 01:34:54,690 --> 01:34:55,440 That's why 1552 01:34:55,530 --> 01:34:58,680 well, here's Nancy Pelosi with her response to the tax bill. 1553 01:34:59,820 --> 01:35:03,570 Oh, But this news conference and on the floor you Democrats talk 1554 01:35:03,570 --> 01:35:07,260 about this bill often in very apocalyptic terms, but isn't 1555 01:35:07,260 --> 01:35:10,560 really what's going on is that many people are getting a very 1556 01:35:10,560 --> 01:35:13,590 modest tax cut, and some people are getting a tax increase, 1557 01:35:13,590 --> 01:35:16,830 while a lot of us is also going to business, but it's not the 1558 01:35:16,830 --> 01:35:17,610 end of the world. 1559 01:35:17,790 --> 01:35:23,310 Yeah, it is the end of this healthcare, life death. This is 1560 01:35:24,030 --> 01:35:28,350 Armageddon, Armageddon, this is a very big deal. Because you 1561 01:35:28,350 --> 01:35:32,670 know why? There's really a very hard way to come back from this. 1562 01:35:32,940 --> 01:35:37,920 They take us further, more deeply into debt. What can you 1563 01:35:37,920 --> 01:35:43,590 do but raise taxes? They contend that they're a gift to corporate 1564 01:35:43,590 --> 01:35:46,170 America, a trillion and a half dollars could be up to a 1565 01:35:46,170 --> 01:35:50,610 trillion dollars will be paid for by the growth that creates, 1566 01:35:50,610 --> 01:35:56,940 and even their own people say, nonsense. Not true. Not true. So 1567 01:35:56,940 --> 01:36:00,540 let's be truthful with the American people about that. They 1568 01:36:00,540 --> 01:36:04,050 throw a few crumbs to the middle class where they give with one 1569 01:36:04,050 --> 01:36:09,930 hand, they take away and bounty with the other. And why? Because 1570 01:36:09,930 --> 01:36:14,490 it is in their DNA, to give tax cuts to the rich. That's their 1571 01:36:14,490 --> 01:36:17,130 purpose and coming to Congress. 1572 01:36:17,160 --> 01:36:20,070 It's in their DNA they're born so only ways 1573 01:36:20,070 --> 01:36:21,540 they come to Congress born to 1574 01:36:21,540 --> 01:36:22,560 cut taxes. 1575 01:36:22,590 --> 01:36:26,280 That's why they're so thrilled with Donald Trump is president 1576 01:36:26,280 --> 01:36:30,750 because he's a trickle down guy. Oh, and this has 1577 01:36:31,020 --> 01:36:32,340 that's a sexual thing. 1578 01:36:32,370 --> 01:36:34,170 It's a sex sexual thing. You 1579 01:36:34,170 --> 01:36:37,890 when sexual innuendo? Yeah, trickle down. I know dossier, 1580 01:36:37,890 --> 01:36:38,880 peeing on beds. Yeah, 1581 01:36:38,910 --> 01:36:44,160 this president because he's a trickle down guy. And this has 1582 01:36:44,160 --> 01:36:47,280 never paid for itself. It's never created think 1583 01:36:47,280 --> 01:36:50,970 23 and me actually has a category. When you do your DNA 1584 01:36:50,970 --> 01:36:51,990 tests, oh, trickle 1585 01:36:51,990 --> 01:36:54,810 down jobs, and it's always increased the debt. 1586 01:36:55,530 --> 01:36:58,680 Okay. Thanks, Nancy. If you don't want I just like to stay 1587 01:36:58,680 --> 01:37:00,810 with a little bit of Trump hate because I had some funny ones. 1588 01:37:00,810 --> 01:37:01,230 Before you 1589 01:37:01,230 --> 01:37:03,870 do that. I do want to play this tax bill. Misunderstanding clip 1590 01:37:03,870 --> 01:37:05,790 says we're on tax bill. Okay. 1591 01:37:06,180 --> 01:37:09,060 Good, because I can't wait to read this thing. I'm very 1592 01:37:09,060 --> 01:37:09,660 curious. 1593 01:37:10,200 --> 01:37:12,720 At the White House today, Republicans proclaimed they're 1594 01:37:12,720 --> 01:37:16,260 on the verge of a big win on tax reform. The President with a 1595 01:37:16,260 --> 01:37:18,030 Christmas promise, we want to 1596 01:37:18,030 --> 01:37:23,970 give you the American people a giant tax cut for Christmas. And 1597 01:37:23,970 --> 01:37:26,130 when I say giant, I mean giant. 1598 01:37:27,540 --> 01:37:35,700 Back on the Hill protest. Protesters say it will hurt the 1599 01:37:35,700 --> 01:37:38,640 working and middle class as lawmakers huddled in the 1600 01:37:38,640 --> 01:37:41,760 basement of the Capitol to finalize the bill. Even top 1601 01:37:41,760 --> 01:37:45,720 Republican negotiators admit it's not a totally done deal. So 1602 01:37:45,720 --> 01:37:46,260 do you have a deal? 1603 01:37:48,120 --> 01:37:52,890 Well, it's going forward very positive. It feels very close to 1604 01:37:52,890 --> 01:37:53,760 an agreement. So 1605 01:37:54,180 --> 01:37:56,040 even the president is cautious. 1606 01:37:56,070 --> 01:38:00,480 I mean, we are so close right now. So close. Fact almost I 1607 01:38:00,480 --> 01:38:02,670 don't want to talk about it. Maybe we shouldn't talk about 1608 01:38:02,670 --> 01:38:02,790 it. 1609 01:38:03,269 --> 01:38:06,869 Tonight, they have agreed to this helping corporations that 1610 01:38:06,869 --> 01:38:11,189 drops the corporate tax rate from 35 to 21%. caps the 1611 01:38:11,189 --> 01:38:15,239 mortgage interest deduction at $750,000. A middle ground 1612 01:38:15,239 --> 01:38:18,779 between the Senate and House versions repeals the Obamacare 1613 01:38:18,779 --> 01:38:22,259 individual mandate that all Americans have insurance, which 1614 01:38:22,259 --> 01:38:26,039 could leave 13 million more Americans without insurance in 1615 01:38:26,039 --> 01:38:29,609 the next decade. And to help the wealthy it lowers the top 1616 01:38:29,609 --> 01:38:34,169 individual tax rate from 39 down to 37%. How does that help 1617 01:38:34,169 --> 01:38:34,949 middle class Americans, 1618 01:38:34,980 --> 01:38:39,090 this bill is going to lower the tax burden on working families 1619 01:38:39,420 --> 01:38:41,880 on middle income families and it's going to generate 1620 01:38:41,880 --> 01:38:43,590 tremendous economic growth. But 1621 01:38:43,620 --> 01:38:47,040 what about the deficit? It's still unclear how much this will 1622 01:38:47,040 --> 01:38:50,490 ultimately cost. A new analysis predicts it could add more than 1623 01:38:50,490 --> 01:38:55,050 $1.5 trillion to the nation's debt. And a previous analysis of 1624 01:38:55,050 --> 01:38:59,460 the Senate version said Americans making $75,000 or less 1625 01:38:59,610 --> 01:39:03,990 will pay more over the next 10 years. When Democrats insist the 1626 01:39:03,990 --> 01:39:06,660 long term benefits will go to the wealthy. 1627 01:39:07,050 --> 01:39:09,900 Most of what's there for the middle class is written in 1628 01:39:09,900 --> 01:39:11,010 disappearing ink. 1629 01:39:11,100 --> 01:39:12,450 The Republican tax 1630 01:39:12,450 --> 01:39:15,630 bill is one that ever Ebenezer Scrooge would love 1631 01:39:16,020 --> 01:39:19,590 to bad you fumbled that one lady? Yeah, but I missed the 1632 01:39:19,590 --> 01:39:20,190 punch line. 1633 01:39:22,170 --> 01:39:23,280 Let me say this about 1634 01:39:23,730 --> 01:39:27,150 a guy this couple things. There's a lot of could do. This 1635 01:39:27,150 --> 01:39:31,440 could add? Yes. There's a lot of that. And the other thing is, is 1636 01:39:31,440 --> 01:39:35,490 that they keep the Democrats keep emphasizing that it will 1637 01:39:35,490 --> 01:39:39,870 increase your taxes if you make under $75,000 over 10 years. 1638 01:39:40,200 --> 01:39:43,950 Meaning the thing is the disappearing ink references that 1639 01:39:43,950 --> 01:39:45,690 in 2025 1640 01:39:45,750 --> 01:39:50,760 is when that that provision is sunsets. Yeah, or 2021 of the so 1641 01:39:50,760 --> 01:39:53,370 it's not going to happen for 10 years at least is 1642 01:39:54,060 --> 01:39:56,940 as you know, depending on what the political climate is, at the 1643 01:39:56,940 --> 01:40:00,720 time, it could be continued. It could be even more As soon as it 1644 01:40:00,720 --> 01:40:04,590 can happen, these are desert two parties that are both, both of 1645 01:40:04,590 --> 01:40:09,360 them lying to the public Democrats lying more, I think 1646 01:40:09,360 --> 01:40:12,960 more and worse. It's just disingenuous, listening to these 1647 01:40:12,960 --> 01:40:15,900 people, what are they got against this thing? What's going 1648 01:40:15,900 --> 01:40:18,900 to make the deficit go up more? It's already outrageous. 1649 01:40:19,620 --> 01:40:22,800 Let me say, let me say this about that. So they mentioned 1650 01:40:23,220 --> 01:40:25,830 health care. And the 1651 01:40:25,890 --> 01:40:28,560 that's another disingenuous remark, because it's not going 1652 01:40:28,560 --> 01:40:30,750 to pull the rug out from anybody, it's just going to mean 1653 01:40:30,750 --> 01:40:33,660 that they don't have to join a system. I had 1654 01:40:33,660 --> 01:40:37,170 a little experience with the system yesterday. For a number 1655 01:40:37,170 --> 01:40:40,530 of reasons, I had to get health care through the exchange before 1656 01:40:40,530 --> 01:40:46,110 they close for the open enrollment period. Then I'm not 1657 01:40:46,110 --> 01:40:48,270 sick. So that's not one of the reasons but I had no health 1658 01:40:48,270 --> 01:40:50,820 insurance. In fact, I was kind of a little bit against the 1659 01:40:50,820 --> 01:40:55,320 whole idea. And I paid the fine. Last year, like me, I did 1660 01:40:55,320 --> 01:41:01,110 because I was looking at $1,500 a month, because I'm over 55, I 1661 01:41:01,110 --> 01:41:05,760 made it over 50, I'm not 53 I'm not even I feel over 55 today. 1662 01:41:07,200 --> 01:41:10,440 So I had to go through the system and get some coverage. 1663 01:41:10,440 --> 01:41:13,440 And I was just looking for anything that I'll pay my 1664 01:41:13,440 --> 01:41:18,240 deductibles and just you know, if I'm, if I'm half dead, I 1665 01:41:18,240 --> 01:41:20,190 don't want to eat after or murder my daughter, I have to 1666 01:41:20,190 --> 01:41:23,070 worry about it. That's pretty much all I was looking for. 1667 01:41:23,190 --> 01:41:27,330 Because I'm gonna get the concierge thing here in Austin, 1668 01:41:27,390 --> 01:41:30,180 where you pay 150 bucks a month, you can see your doctor whenever 1669 01:41:30,180 --> 01:41:33,510 you want. It's a great system to kind of Co Op, we've talked 1670 01:41:33,510 --> 01:41:39,510 about it before. So I go to healthcare.gov. And I fill out 1671 01:41:39,960 --> 01:41:44,910 my you got to fill in a lot of information. And before I even 1672 01:41:44,910 --> 01:41:48,330 get to the plans, I've filled in my phone number and my email 1673 01:41:48,330 --> 01:41:52,950 address in my zip code. I click submit. And I haven't even 1674 01:41:52,950 --> 01:41:58,050 gotten to know the different plans, and my phone starts 1675 01:41:58,050 --> 01:42:04,560 ringing. I have received over 60 calls since yesterday. And they 1676 01:42:04,560 --> 01:42:08,040 all like call from the same area code has my cell phone and they 1677 01:42:08,040 --> 01:42:13,080 switch it up and they'll move to 512 for Texas and it's all these 1678 01:42:13,080 --> 01:42:18,870 brokers. Before I even got into the system, my information was 1679 01:42:18,870 --> 01:42:21,900 given to broker in fact, I leave my phone I just I'm gonna switch 1680 01:42:21,900 --> 01:42:26,040 it on because one of them will call like, hey, it's an y'all I 1681 01:42:26,040 --> 01:42:28,200 know you're looking for health care, I can find something for 1682 01:42:28,200 --> 01:42:32,880 you in any state just and they're texting me. It's really 1683 01:42:33,360 --> 01:42:37,680 invasive. And I think it's wasn't the whole idea that this 1684 01:42:37,680 --> 01:42:40,500 website, which is having problems again, apparently it's 1685 01:42:40,500 --> 01:42:40,710 just 1686 01:42:40,710 --> 01:42:43,590 ridiculous if the government websites giving your phone 1687 01:42:43,590 --> 01:42:46,980 number away immediately, immediately. Yeah, before you're 1688 01:42:46,980 --> 01:42:51,840 even done with the process. Ah, idea. Okay. You have anybody who 1689 01:42:51,840 --> 01:42:52,590 wants to harass? 1690 01:42:53,220 --> 01:42:56,100 Yeah, yeah, it's one of those. Let me see if I can find one 1691 01:42:56,130 --> 01:42:59,550 here. I'll just so you know, my cell phone, I can tell everybody 1692 01:42:59,550 --> 01:43:03,030 it starts with 650 because I got my phone when I was in San 1693 01:43:03,030 --> 01:43:08,940 Francisco. And that's Palo Alto area that's Northern. It's a 1694 01:43:08,940 --> 01:43:13,650 Euro your neck of the woods kinda. So here's Pescadero 1695 01:43:13,650 --> 01:43:17,940 California. Let me just play this one for you. Let me see. 1696 01:43:17,970 --> 01:43:21,390 How does this. We go? Oh, hold it up to the phone. 1697 01:43:23,790 --> 01:43:27,270 Hi, this is Auntie I'm calling because it's open enrollment. 1698 01:43:27,300 --> 01:43:30,660 And that means it's time to get a great health insurance plan at 1699 01:43:30,660 --> 01:43:32,100 the price you can afford. 1700 01:43:32,130 --> 01:43:35,010 Now that's a robot. Let me see there were a couple of people 1701 01:43:35,010 --> 01:43:38,220 who called as well. But it's the it's the system just switches 1702 01:43:38,220 --> 01:43:42,120 now just try different area code. Let me see the here's, 1703 01:43:42,300 --> 01:43:45,660 here's one from Pennsylvania. Let's see. 1704 01:43:52,500 --> 01:43:53,730 Now that's not the right one. 1705 01:43:54,030 --> 01:43:58,290 But anyway, you get the idea of if one calls now. Or during the 1706 01:43:58,290 --> 01:44:02,250 show, we'll answer it. And I'll tell them that they don't stop 1707 01:44:02,250 --> 01:44:04,440 calling dig I need some healthcare up. Here we go. 1708 01:44:04,500 --> 01:44:08,040 Cleveland, Ohio, Cleveland, Ohio. Hello. 1709 01:44:09,090 --> 01:44:11,220 Hello, my friend. I hear you're feeling ill 1710 01:44:12,750 --> 01:44:18,420 from insurance. Yeah, I guess so. I feel really ill. I mean, 1711 01:44:18,420 --> 01:44:19,770 joining the show today talk to you later. 1712 01:44:21,300 --> 01:44:26,670 Was that I got trolled Joker. I got a troll. I got trolled. 1713 01:44:30,390 --> 01:44:39,210 Whoa, you got bud slammed a good one. You're dead man. Good one. 1714 01:44:40,230 --> 01:44:43,410 This is of course it's a show day and it wouldn't be show day. 1715 01:44:43,860 --> 01:44:47,760 If there wasn't something big going on. The FCC just voted to 1716 01:44:47,760 --> 01:44:52,920 overturn the net neutrality rules. And I wanted to play a 1717 01:44:52,920 --> 01:44:57,000 little game. Because in the last Yes, well on 1718 01:44:58,170 --> 01:45:00,810 those rules, the rules that have never are actually been put in 1719 01:45:00,810 --> 01:45:05,010 place there as the proposed. Yes. So what's changed nothing. 1720 01:45:05,460 --> 01:45:07,770 We have people and somebody's writing me all things have 1721 01:45:07,770 --> 01:45:12,240 changed since these new rules. Nothing been changed, nothing 1722 01:45:12,240 --> 01:45:12,660 has been 1723 01:45:13,140 --> 01:45:15,720 changing. Nothing's changing at all. But the rules have never 1724 01:45:15,720 --> 01:45:17,250 implemented, never enforced or 1725 01:45:17,250 --> 01:45:19,800 implemented. These are just bogus rules that weren't ever 1726 01:45:19,800 --> 01:45:22,590 implemented just sitting in limbo. Okay. 1727 01:45:23,880 --> 01:45:30,660 In a last ditch effort, there was an open letter. A 43. Now 1728 01:45:30,660 --> 01:45:34,710 wasn't 43 paid an open letter sent the ad was 43 pages behind 1729 01:45:34,710 --> 01:45:35,430 the open letter 1730 01:45:36,870 --> 01:45:37,650 to 1731 01:45:39,900 --> 01:45:43,800 Roger Wicker Brian shallow Schatz, Marsha Blackburn, 1732 01:45:44,580 --> 01:45:49,830 Michael F. Doyle. These are all ranking members. And title is 1733 01:45:49,860 --> 01:45:54,270 internet pioneers and leaders Tell the FCC you don't 1734 01:45:54,300 --> 01:45:59,970 understand how the internet works. Now I thought it would be 1735 01:45:59,970 --> 01:46:05,340 interesting because what here's what grabbed me this you can 1736 01:46:05,340 --> 01:46:09,900 look in any in any press publication, internet pioneers. 1737 01:46:10,500 --> 01:46:16,860 Oh, okay. So what exactly is an internet pioneer? Are you an 1738 01:46:16,860 --> 01:46:20,130 internet is your pioneer or a poser? I guess is the game I'd 1739 01:46:20,130 --> 01:46:25,020 like to play. Go. I could do that pioneer reposer Here we go. 1740 01:46:25,740 --> 01:46:30,090 Okay. These are people who call themselves internet pioneers. 1741 01:46:30,390 --> 01:46:30,870 Right? 1742 01:46:32,010 --> 01:46:36,990 Here we go. And actually says in this document Stephen M. Belvin. 1743 01:46:39,330 --> 01:46:43,560 FTC Chief Technologist, he calls himself an internet pioneer, Tim 1744 01:46:43,560 --> 01:46:45,600 Berners. Lee, I'll give him pioneer. 1745 01:46:45,750 --> 01:46:47,940 He's a pilot, you know, even then it would be questionable 1746 01:46:47,940 --> 01:46:50,280 because he's not an internet pioneer. Here's a 1747 01:46:50,340 --> 01:46:54,300 web Wide Web pioneer. Wow. But he's, ya know, I 1748 01:46:54,300 --> 01:46:57,900 give him a give it to him. He's a good guy. John Borthwick 1749 01:46:58,230 --> 01:47:00,930 CEO of beta works. Internet pioneer. 1750 01:47:01,320 --> 01:47:03,270 I don't know. I never met him. Scott. 1751 01:47:03,450 --> 01:47:08,280 Bradner never even heard of the guy. No. Internet pioneer, 1752 01:47:08,610 --> 01:47:11,340 Vinton G CERF Yeah. Well, you 1753 01:47:11,339 --> 01:47:15,749 have to give him some because what did he What did he Yeah, ip 1754 01:47:15,779 --> 01:47:16,769 ip guy. 1755 01:47:17,610 --> 01:47:22,200 Steve Steven and protocol. Steven Crocker. Sounds familiar. 1756 01:47:22,260 --> 01:47:28,560 Could be David Farber. I think so. FCC Chief Technologist. 1757 01:47:29,160 --> 01:47:34,020 Maybe Martin Hellman calls himself I've 1758 01:47:34,020 --> 01:47:36,120 heard a hit with him. I think maybe he might be. 1759 01:47:36,450 --> 01:47:39,300 He says Internet Security pioneer. 1760 01:47:39,720 --> 01:47:41,130 Could be Brewster Calle 1761 01:47:43,290 --> 01:47:44,760 Brewster has over here. I 1762 01:47:44,760 --> 01:47:47,250 mean, it's Internet Archive, but he's not a pioneer of the 1763 01:47:47,250 --> 01:47:48,750 internet. Is he? He didn't do 1764 01:47:48,750 --> 01:47:53,460 any of the protocols or anything that I did I know of I like 1765 01:47:53,460 --> 01:47:54,000 Brewster. 1766 01:47:54,660 --> 01:48:00,900 I'd like him to. How about Theodore home Nelson? Ted 1767 01:48:00,900 --> 01:48:02,310 Nelson. That is 1768 01:48:02,610 --> 01:48:04,110 hypertext pioneer. 1769 01:48:04,350 --> 01:48:08,940 He did invented hypertext you got that and he's always wrote 1770 01:48:08,940 --> 01:48:13,080 it wrote a lot and I don't know that it's he was involved with 1771 01:48:13,080 --> 01:48:16,170 this kind of stuff before the internet made it now I don't 1772 01:48:16,170 --> 01:48:16,920 think so. Not really. 1773 01:48:18,030 --> 01:48:25,440 Oh. Not a pioneer. David P Reed. Never heard this internet 1774 01:48:25,440 --> 01:48:27,300 pioneer. We should know him. How can we not know a 1775 01:48:28,230 --> 01:48:32,160 lot of these guys are you know, professors here Paul? Worked for 1776 01:48:32,160 --> 01:48:32,850 the military. 1777 01:48:32,880 --> 01:48:37,230 Paul Vixie. Don't know him. Internet pioneer. Stephen Wolf. 1778 01:48:38,520 --> 01:48:42,030 Sounds familiar. He's been pioneer Steve Wozniak. How is 1779 01:48:42,030 --> 01:48:43,500 that a pioneer of the internet? 1780 01:48:44,400 --> 01:48:47,280 I don't see him being a pioneer of the internet unless you call 1781 01:48:47,280 --> 01:48:51,780 you know inventing floppy disk controller in a Color Computer. 1782 01:48:52,710 --> 01:48:56,670 having anything to do with it. So clearly Mrs. Is not is this 1783 01:48:56,670 --> 01:48:57,000 is not 1784 01:48:57,030 --> 01:49:01,560 clearly missing from the list is John C. Dvorak and Adam Clark 1785 01:49:01,560 --> 01:49:02,160 curry. 1786 01:49:02,670 --> 01:49:05,160 Well, I wouldn't call either one of us internet 1787 01:49:05,580 --> 01:49:09,330 podcast pioneers. Yes. Listen to this though. Listen to their 1788 01:49:09,330 --> 01:49:15,960 note. We How can you start a letter like that? We are the 1789 01:49:15,960 --> 01:49:20,070 pioneers and technologists who created and now operate the 1790 01:49:20,070 --> 01:49:22,590 internet. Well, fuck y'all. 1791 01:49:22,770 --> 01:49:24,690 And of lessons they get declaration or 1792 01:49:25,410 --> 01:49:28,140 letter. Some of the innovators and business people who like 1793 01:49:28,140 --> 01:49:31,230 many others depend on it for our livelihood. We are writing to 1794 01:49:31,230 --> 01:49:35,490 respectfully urge you to call on FCC Chairman Ajit pi to cancel 1795 01:49:35,490 --> 01:49:39,750 the December 14 vote. This proposed order would repeal key 1796 01:49:39,750 --> 01:49:42,420 network neutrality protections that prevent Internet access 1797 01:49:42,420 --> 01:49:45,360 providers from blocking content websites application slowing or 1798 01:49:45,360 --> 01:49:48,180 speeding up services or class of servers and charging online 1799 01:49:48,180 --> 01:49:50,820 services for access to fast lanes Internet access providers 1800 01:49:50,820 --> 01:49:54,390 customers. The proposed order would also repeal oversight over 1801 01:49:54,390 --> 01:49:56,760 other unreasonable discrimination, unreasonable 1802 01:49:56,760 --> 01:49:59,220 practices and over interconnection with last mile 1803 01:49:59,220 --> 01:50:02,910 internet X As providers, the proposed order removes long 1804 01:50:02,910 --> 01:50:05,610 standing FCC oversight over internet access providers 1805 01:50:05,610 --> 01:50:08,640 without an inadequate inadequate replacement to protect consumers 1806 01:50:08,640 --> 01:50:12,300 free markets and online innovation. In other words, your 1807 01:50:12,300 --> 01:50:13,230 racket. Yeah. 1808 01:50:13,320 --> 01:50:15,900 Well on that, can you back off two sentences and read those 1809 01:50:15,900 --> 01:50:16,290 again? 1810 01:50:16,830 --> 01:50:21,240 Yes, it is important to understand that the FCC Sorry, 1811 01:50:21,240 --> 01:50:26,040 wrong one. The proposed order removes long standing FCC 1812 01:50:26,040 --> 01:50:29,730 oversight over internet access providers without an adequate 1813 01:50:29,730 --> 01:50:32,880 replacement to protect consumers free markets and online 1814 01:50:32,880 --> 01:50:33,480 innovation. 1815 01:50:33,510 --> 01:50:38,790 Yeah, that's what I saw another words, these guys for whatever 1816 01:50:38,790 --> 01:50:41,520 reason. Remember Vint Cerf? 1817 01:50:42,180 --> 01:50:45,840 He's a Google I know the reason he's a Google they want 1818 01:50:45,840 --> 01:50:48,810 to be the boss used to be an MCI, but the other guys are 1819 01:50:48,840 --> 01:50:51,480 Jeff, similar conflicts of interest. Yep. And that's what 1820 01:50:51,480 --> 01:50:53,340 it is. It's a conflict of interest. And I just said 1821 01:50:53,340 --> 01:50:59,580 Wozniak, he doesn't care. But it says clearly, if you read that 1822 01:50:59,580 --> 01:51:04,770 sentence again, that they want they are demanding that the FCC 1823 01:51:04,770 --> 01:51:06,090 take over the internet 1824 01:51:06,120 --> 01:51:09,750 chat. This is what 1825 01:51:09,960 --> 01:51:12,990 this is the company that people use just just 1826 01:51:13,019 --> 01:51:15,209 let me read a little more because I think it gets a little 1827 01:51:15,209 --> 01:51:16,169 a little nutty here. 1828 01:51:17,099 --> 01:51:20,309 They are demanding that the FCC take over the internet. That's 1829 01:51:20,309 --> 01:51:21,989 what that's said to me. 1830 01:51:22,019 --> 01:51:25,259 Yeah, so they can really quash competition, namely their 1831 01:51:25,259 --> 01:51:29,129 competition. It is important to understand that FCC has proposed 1832 01:51:29,129 --> 01:51:32,459 orders based on a flawed and factually inaccurate 1833 01:51:32,459 --> 01:51:36,959 understanding of internet technology. That's a that's 1834 01:51:36,959 --> 01:51:40,049 pretty brazen to say that these flaws and inaccuracies were 1835 01:51:40,049 --> 01:51:44,159 documented in detail in a 43 page long joint comments signed 1836 01:51:44,159 --> 01:51:48,329 by over 200 of the most prominent internet pioneers and 1837 01:51:48,329 --> 01:51:53,009 engineers and submitted to FCC on July 17. Despite this 1838 01:51:53,009 --> 01:51:56,219 comment, the FCC did not correct its misunderstandings but 1839 01:51:56,219 --> 01:51:59,429 instead Premise The proposed order on the very technical 1840 01:51:59,429 --> 01:52:03,419 flaws that comment explained. The technically incorrect 1841 01:52:03,419 --> 01:52:07,289 proposed order dismantles 15 years of targeted oversight from 1842 01:52:07,289 --> 01:52:10,919 both Republican and Democratic FCC chairs who understood the 1843 01:52:10,919 --> 01:52:13,529 threats that Internet access providers could pose to open 1844 01:52:13,529 --> 01:52:18,329 markets on the internet. And the experts comment was not the one 1845 01:52:19,620 --> 01:52:22,890 is there any discussion in this thing because you're not going 1846 01:52:22,890 --> 01:52:25,830 to read the whole thing you know, just to ask you if there's 1847 01:52:25,830 --> 01:52:29,220 any discussion of the fact that the government the same 1848 01:52:29,220 --> 01:52:32,550 government that these guys are like hoping to take over the 1849 01:52:32,550 --> 01:52:37,020 place that the government has allowed merger and acquisition 1850 01:52:37,020 --> 01:52:40,890 one after the another of some every small fry out there who 1851 01:52:40,890 --> 01:52:44,880 used to be an ISP and now are owned by Doug fact it happened 1852 01:52:44,880 --> 01:52:48,090 to you right there in your own backyard when Time Warner got 1853 01:52:48,150 --> 01:52:51,360 kicked out because they got bought out by somebody spectrum 1854 01:52:51,900 --> 01:52:55,530 became spectrum is their job. So I'm sure there's a bunch of 1855 01:52:55,530 --> 01:52:59,640 complaining about this sort of lack of of any sort of control 1856 01:52:59,640 --> 01:53:02,760 lack of oversight lack of concern. Is that in there 1857 01:53:04,650 --> 01:53:05,250 please 1858 01:53:06,780 --> 01:53:10,200 but here's what's interesting, because this guy's Geez and all 1859 01:53:10,200 --> 01:53:13,380 over himself. The experts comment was not the only one the 1860 01:53:13,380 --> 01:53:16,290 FCC ignored over 23 million comments have been submitted by 1861 01:53:16,290 --> 01:53:18,720 public that is clearly passionate about protecting the 1862 01:53:18,720 --> 01:53:22,740 internet via thanks to your your astroturf campaigns, 1863 01:53:23,009 --> 01:53:26,879 who also during the bots, bots, well, 1864 01:53:26,910 --> 01:53:30,120 the FCC could have been busted for bots, the FCC could not 1865 01:53:30,120 --> 01:53:33,720 possibly have considered these adequately. Indeed, breaking 1866 01:53:33,720 --> 01:53:36,630 with established practice, the FCC has not held a single open 1867 01:53:36,630 --> 01:53:39,450 public meeting to hear from citizens and experts about the 1868 01:53:39,450 --> 01:53:43,590 proposed order. Furthermore, the FCC online comments system has 1869 01:53:43,590 --> 01:53:46,920 been plagued by major problems the FCC has not had time to 1870 01:53:46,920 --> 01:53:50,910 investigate. These include bot generated comments that 1871 01:53:50,910 --> 01:53:54,210 impersonated Americans, including dead people, and an 1872 01:53:54,240 --> 01:53:58,950 unexplained outage of the FCC online common system that 1873 01:53:58,950 --> 01:54:03,510 occurred at the very moment. TV host John Oliver was encouraging 1874 01:54:03,510 --> 01:54:09,000 Americans to submit to the system. Mysterious so they're 1875 01:54:09,000 --> 01:54:10,080 implying Hold 1876 01:54:10,080 --> 01:54:12,960 on a second. Let me get this straight. These guys are 1877 01:54:12,960 --> 01:54:17,250 accusing the FCC about not understanding the internet. Yep. 1878 01:54:18,120 --> 01:54:22,530 And they don't see that they got to MIT they get overloaded a 1879 01:54:22,530 --> 01:54:24,930 system because of John Oliver. And they think instead of it 1880 01:54:24,930 --> 01:54:28,710 being overloaded because of John Oliver, they they actually think 1881 01:54:28,740 --> 01:54:31,950 yeah, or somebody does. Somebody thinks that just a somebody 1882 01:54:31,950 --> 01:54:32,820 pulled the plug. 1883 01:54:32,850 --> 01:54:35,700 Yeah, that's exactly that's what they're implying. But what's 1884 01:54:35,700 --> 01:54:38,970 interesting about the John Oliver comment who was heralded 1885 01:54:38,970 --> 01:54:44,190 as the pioneer of net neutrality, and he has all kinds 1886 01:54:44,190 --> 01:54:49,080 of conflict, but it's irrelevant. But here's what's 1887 01:54:49,110 --> 01:54:52,890 going around on the face bag. And it always starts with please 1888 01:54:52,890 --> 01:54:58,410 cut and paste widely. Yeah, because if you if you just like 1889 01:54:58,410 --> 01:54:59,970 something or share it with another 1890 01:55:00,000 --> 01:55:04,440 would another time code down your CV better 1891 01:55:04,469 --> 01:55:12,509 that way? I think I think you're right. Please do this and cut 1892 01:55:12,509 --> 01:55:17,609 and paste widely. Net Neutrality is about to disappear. Like you 1893 01:55:17,609 --> 01:55:18,569 can see it now. 1894 01:55:19,860 --> 01:55:22,770 I see the quarter mile, some net neutrality walking by. 1895 01:55:24,150 --> 01:55:27,420 Net Neutrality is about to disappear which will be truly 1896 01:55:27,450 --> 01:55:33,330 catastrophic. Follow John Oliver's instructions and tell 1897 01:55:33,330 --> 01:55:37,680 the agency we want equal access and equal speed for everyone. 1898 01:55:37,920 --> 01:55:41,700 Please do it now. It will take two minutes. Thanks to John 1899 01:55:41,700 --> 01:55:46,170 Oliver. There's a super easy way to do this. And then it goes on 1900 01:55:46,170 --> 01:55:51,690 to say go to go FCC yourself.com The shortcut John Oliver made to 1901 01:55:51,690 --> 01:55:55,410 the hard to find FCC comment page. He's so awesome. John 1902 01:55:55,440 --> 01:56:03,000 Oliver is the best. Goes on how it gives you instructions. These 1903 01:56:03,000 --> 01:56:08,040 poor misguided schlubs You're so misguided, but you know, you 1904 01:56:08,040 --> 01:56:11,130 know what the I'm not gonna read any of this 43 pages for you. 1905 01:56:11,130 --> 01:56:16,530 But I did read it. And what they're saying the FCC doesn't 1906 01:56:16,530 --> 01:56:19,950 understand is a difference between a dumb telephone 1907 01:56:19,950 --> 01:56:25,200 company, which is what they call the ISPs continuously Dumb, dumb 1908 01:56:25,200 --> 01:56:29,850 pipes, dumb network, which is very, very insulting to people 1909 01:56:29,850 --> 01:56:33,060 who run these networks. If you think that this stuff is easy, 1910 01:56:33,150 --> 01:56:36,330 you got another thing coming. It's, you know, I've heard Leo 1911 01:56:36,330 --> 01:56:40,140 Laporte say, yeah, it's just like, why you can't wait, what's 1912 01:56:40,140 --> 01:56:43,770 the problem? It's a big deal. I owned a data center, and I went 1913 01:56:43,770 --> 01:56:48,510 and it went bankrupt. That's how hard it is. It's a very capital 1914 01:56:48,510 --> 01:56:54,000 intensive. And, and really, a lot of work goes into making 1915 01:56:54,150 --> 01:56:58,560 exchanges work. But okay, they're just dumb pipes run by 1916 01:56:58,560 --> 01:57:04,770 dumb people do dumb stuff. So they're saying that the FCC did 1917 01:57:04,770 --> 01:57:09,540 not want to view them that way. Because FCC, believes the ISPs 1918 01:57:09,540 --> 01:57:15,360 provide important services, in addition to dumb pipes. And you 1919 01:57:15,360 --> 01:57:20,250 know, what the example that they use is DNS, which I think is 1920 01:57:20,250 --> 01:57:29,010 actually a pretty good example. Well, it's a very in the world, 1921 01:57:29,220 --> 01:57:33,180 for them to say, that's not an important service. Sure, 1922 01:57:33,210 --> 01:57:37,830 everyone wants you to enter 8.8 dot 8.8. So Google can control 1923 01:57:37,830 --> 01:57:42,330 your life. DNS is truly the DNA of the internet, you remove, 1924 01:57:42,360 --> 01:57:46,560 you've messed with DNS, don't mess up, you got problems, you 1925 01:57:46,560 --> 01:57:51,420 got big ass problems. Now, there are other other things. But in 1926 01:57:51,420 --> 01:57:55,890 general, what you said in the beginning is exactly that. You 1927 01:57:55,890 --> 01:57:59,970 don't want the government regulating what is legal content 1928 01:58:00,000 --> 01:58:03,390 and illegal traffic. And I would say 1929 01:58:03,390 --> 01:58:07,050 what's interesting is the irony of this letter, where they say 1930 01:58:07,920 --> 01:58:12,930 that the FCC doesn't understand the internet yet. They want the 1931 01:58:12,930 --> 01:58:16,560 FCC to take over the internet. How does that make any sense as 1932 01:58:16,560 --> 01:58:19,620 the you've already said, and you're trying to make the point 1933 01:58:19,740 --> 01:58:23,850 that the FCC are a bunch of boneheads that let's let them do 1934 01:58:23,850 --> 01:58:28,020 everything even worse, because it's just like Schumer and his 1935 01:58:28,020 --> 01:58:31,740 in his policies about what the Republicans should worry about. 1936 01:58:32,040 --> 01:58:38,220 I mean, come on, make up your mind. Yeah, and I want to remind 1937 01:58:38,220 --> 01:58:39,750 all these pioneers and everybody else 1938 01:58:40,890 --> 01:58:43,170 Hello, pioneers, we have a message for 1939 01:58:43,410 --> 01:58:46,890 you the same guys who said Oh, my God, whatever you do, don't 1940 01:58:46,890 --> 01:58:50,160 let the government have any involvement in the internet at 1941 01:58:50,160 --> 01:58:50,730 all. 1942 01:58:50,790 --> 01:58:56,220 Meanwhile, after the Amazon Google fractus Google is now 1943 01:58:56,220 --> 01:59:00,300 blocking Microsoft's YouTube Windows Phone app from accessing 1944 01:59:00,870 --> 01:59:05,340 any YouTube videos. Do the Why does no one see the irony in 1945 01:59:05,340 --> 01:59:08,730 this you're actually not getting you're they're throttling and 1946 01:59:08,730 --> 01:59:12,540 blocking content to YouTube users. 1947 01:59:17,550 --> 01:59:21,390 Makes it just makes me nuts. And people think we're the biggest a 1948 01:59:21,420 --> 01:59:25,020 holes in the world for being against net neutrality. Instead 1949 01:59:25,020 --> 01:59:29,730 of thinking clean. These guys have been around. It's something 1950 01:59:29,730 --> 01:59:34,110 different from a comedian on HBO, who's on once a week. Maybe 1951 01:59:34,110 --> 01:59:37,260 I should look into it or understand what's really going 1952 01:59:37,260 --> 01:59:37,620 on. 1953 01:59:38,040 --> 01:59:39,450 No, none of that 1954 01:59:40,500 --> 01:59:44,370 is frustrating for John Oliver. Yes 1955 01:59:44,370 --> 01:59:45,930 hero of the stupid 1956 01:59:48,720 --> 01:59:52,440 you made your point. Yeah. Well, I keep up thinking about I wrote 1957 01:59:52,440 --> 01:59:56,490 about five columns on this. Opinions are and I mean, there's 1958 01:59:56,490 --> 02:00:00,630 a few people that that care, but most don't give a shit They just 1959 02:00:01,110 --> 02:00:03,900 lockstep whatever you know John Oliver said it and you know 1960 02:00:03,900 --> 02:00:06,930 somebody else said it and all the pundits think it's right but 1961 02:00:06,930 --> 02:00:11,940 they don't see any downside they don't see the hypocrisy of 1962 02:00:11,970 --> 02:00:15,150 spending the whole early years of the internet saying don't let 1963 02:00:15,150 --> 02:00:18,960 the government get involved and now demanding they get involved. 1964 02:00:19,020 --> 02:00:21,390 Nobody sees that is nuts. it because 1965 02:00:21,390 --> 02:00:26,940 it's not about anything altruistic. It is altruistic 1966 02:00:26,940 --> 02:00:29,550 actually, it's not about anything for the people. It's 1967 02:00:29,550 --> 02:00:33,000 about them. It's all about them. It's about their companies and 1968 02:00:33,000 --> 02:00:36,870 the power they want to have. They want anyone in their way. 1969 02:00:36,930 --> 02:00:40,020 Anyone, anyone, anyone. What's your polar bear clip? 1970 02:00:42,300 --> 02:00:45,360 The polar bear clip as an ultramodern maybe, 1971 02:00:45,630 --> 02:00:49,320 is a teaser? For a I just thought it was hilarious. It was 1972 02:00:49,320 --> 02:00:52,500 a teaser for a special on the you know, the polar bears are 1973 02:00:52,500 --> 02:00:56,910 increasing in numbers. But they decided, it's like the powers 1974 02:00:56,910 --> 02:01:00,450 that be or the system has decided that no, it doesn't fit 1975 02:01:00,450 --> 02:01:03,360 in with the narrative. And I use that word. Now. Let's, 1976 02:01:03,780 --> 02:01:09,690 let's let's go back, go back to 2005 I believe when the original 1977 02:01:09,690 --> 02:01:14,220 and inconvenient truth came out, then very famously, there was a 1978 02:01:14,220 --> 02:01:18,900 shot of a polar bear on a little, you know, little slice a 1979 02:01:18,930 --> 02:01:24,090 little slice of ice looking really hungry. And very sad. And 1980 02:01:24,090 --> 02:01:26,340 the polar bears have died. By the way. You don't want to mess 1981 02:01:26,340 --> 02:01:29,880 with the polar bear. But the polar bears are dying. That's 1982 02:01:29,880 --> 02:01:33,450 the genesis of the story. So this is a special about it. 1983 02:01:33,780 --> 02:01:36,180 Yeah, this is a teaspoon of just from a couple of weeks ago. 1984 02:01:38,280 --> 02:01:44,820 Tonight on Nightline. Inside the melting Arctic Circle, where the 1985 02:01:44,820 --> 02:01:47,670 illusive polar bear is calling for survival, 1986 02:01:47,760 --> 02:01:51,420 their habitats complex world should be interested in this. As 1987 02:01:51,420 --> 02:01:51,660 their 1988 02:01:51,660 --> 02:01:55,260 environment disappears beneath their feet. These powerful 1989 02:01:55,260 --> 02:01:57,720 killers are moving inland towards humankind. 1990 02:01:57,900 --> 02:01:59,940 Is that the most frightened you've ever been in your life? 1991 02:02:02,220 --> 02:02:06,210 Our Amy Robach on a journey to the edge of the earth. There are 1992 02:02:06,300 --> 02:02:09,390 four polar bears right there swimming in the water. That's 1993 02:02:09,390 --> 02:02:13,320 incredible. With the Americans who call it home. Most people 1994 02:02:13,320 --> 02:02:18,120 here have firearms just in case. We've tried to scare mom, and 1995 02:02:18,120 --> 02:02:22,920 the scientists racing to save this vulnerable species. This 1996 02:02:22,920 --> 02:02:27,360 special edition of Nightline vanishing ice, the last American 1997 02:02:27,360 --> 02:02:29,340 Polar Bears, we'll be right back. 1998 02:02:29,370 --> 02:02:32,670 Well, it's as if we had coordinated this program today, 1999 02:02:32,700 --> 02:02:38,190 which we don't do. I picked up a little report on NPR from the 2000 02:02:38,190 --> 02:02:42,120 guy who wrote the book on polar bears. He went to Canada Navia 2001 02:02:42,150 --> 02:02:45,390 with this whole family and I think he went to it's a name of 2002 02:02:45,390 --> 02:02:46,560 a president this town. 2003 02:02:48,720 --> 02:02:54,900 I can't remember it's in the it's in the piece. And oh, oh, 2004 02:02:54,930 --> 02:02:59,790 in 2008 writer Zach Unger had a plan, he was going to save the 2005 02:02:59,790 --> 02:03:03,570 polar bears by writing an epic treatise on the demise of the 2006 02:03:03,570 --> 02:03:04,320 species. 2007 02:03:04,350 --> 02:03:07,230 My humble plan was to become a hero of the environmental 2008 02:03:07,230 --> 02:03:09,480 movement. I was going to go up to the Canadian Arctic, I was 2009 02:03:09,480 --> 02:03:12,750 going to write this mournful Elegy for the polar bears, at 2010 02:03:12,750 --> 02:03:16,320 which point I'd be hailed as the next coming of John Muir. And 2011 02:03:16,410 --> 02:03:19,680 again, this is NPR on aloft on the shoulders of my 2012 02:03:19,710 --> 02:03:20,910 environmental compatriots, 2013 02:03:20,940 --> 02:03:25,350 there was just one problem. Not all the polar bears seem to be 2014 02:03:25,350 --> 02:03:29,190 dying. He realized the truth about the polar bears was 2015 02:03:29,580 --> 02:03:30,540 complicated. 2016 02:03:30,660 --> 02:03:34,800 When I got up there, I started realizing that polar bears were 2017 02:03:34,800 --> 02:03:38,160 not in as bad shape as the conventional wisdom had led me 2018 02:03:38,160 --> 02:03:41,700 to believe, which was actually very heartening, but didn't fit 2019 02:03:41,700 --> 02:03:43,350 well with the book I'd been planning to write. 2020 02:03:43,560 --> 02:03:45,840 A lot of people are going to hear that and say, Wait a 2021 02:03:45,840 --> 02:03:49,800 second, all we've been told for a decade now is that the polar 2022 02:03:49,800 --> 02:03:52,680 bears are going extinct, and it's our fault. And they're all 2023 02:03:52,680 --> 02:03:55,830 dying, and the ice is shrinking, and their lives are soon going 2024 02:03:55,830 --> 02:03:56,010 to be. 2025 02:03:56,520 --> 02:03:59,370 Well, here's a fact that kind of blew me away. When I first 2026 02:03:59,370 --> 02:04:03,330 realized it. There are far more polar bears alive today than 2027 02:04:03,330 --> 02:04:08,250 there were 40 years ago. There are about 25,000 Polar bears 2028 02:04:08,280 --> 02:04:12,750 alive today worldwide. In 1973, there was a Global Hunting ban. 2029 02:04:12,750 --> 02:04:15,900 And so once once hunting was dramatically reduced, the 2030 02:04:15,900 --> 02:04:19,440 population exploded. So this is not to say that global warming 2031 02:04:19,470 --> 02:04:23,040 is not real, or is not a problem for the polar bears. But polar 2032 02:04:23,040 --> 02:04:27,060 bear populations are large. And the truth is that we can't look 2033 02:04:27,060 --> 02:04:30,900 at it as a monolithic population that is all going one way or 2034 02:04:30,900 --> 02:04:31,290 another. 2035 02:04:31,710 --> 02:04:34,470 You moved your whole family up north to do the research for 2036 02:04:34,470 --> 02:04:35,010 this book. 2037 02:04:35,040 --> 02:04:36,510 What was that like? 2038 02:04:36,930 --> 02:04:40,500 Well, you know, the idea was to use my children as bait. Of 2039 02:04:40,500 --> 02:04:43,380 course, the polar bears love little kids. They're they're 2040 02:04:43,380 --> 02:04:44,130 perfect snacks. 2041 02:04:44,160 --> 02:04:45,480 But we that part 2042 02:04:46,590 --> 02:04:49,950 in this town in northern Manitoba, where polar bears 2043 02:04:49,980 --> 02:04:54,330 literally will walk down Main Street, people leave their 2044 02:04:54,330 --> 02:04:57,570 houses and their cars unlocked and it's perfectly good for them 2045 02:04:57,570 --> 02:05:00,930 just to duck into any open door. You You can find when there's a 2046 02:05:00,930 --> 02:05:01,380 polar bear. 2047 02:05:01,530 --> 02:05:05,370 So there are literally polar bears on the streets, walking 2048 02:05:05,370 --> 02:05:07,170 the streets with people from time to time. 2049 02:05:07,920 --> 02:05:09,960 Well, I don't want to oversell it, there are definitely polar 2050 02:05:09,960 --> 02:05:12,180 bears that come into town, there are polar bears that will take a 2051 02:05:12,180 --> 02:05:14,550 swipe at garbage cans, there are polar bears that eat people's 2052 02:05:14,550 --> 02:05:16,950 dogs. But Churchill has developed a really innovative 2053 02:05:16,950 --> 02:05:20,190 polar bear Alert program. And the way that works is you dial a 2054 02:05:20,190 --> 02:05:24,840 phone number 675. Bear, when you see a bear, and a bunch of 2055 02:05:24,870 --> 02:05:27,840 wildlife conservation officers in a truck with a bunch of guns 2056 02:05:27,870 --> 02:05:30,600 come by, and they kind of scare the bears out of town, and they 2057 02:05:30,600 --> 02:05:33,510 have a progression that they use. First, they will fire 2058 02:05:33,540 --> 02:05:36,390 firecracker shells, then they'll move up to rubber bullets, and 2059 02:05:36,390 --> 02:05:40,020 then if necessary, as a last resort, move up to real bullets, 2060 02:05:40,080 --> 02:05:43,200 then they'll actually kill the polar bear if they have to. If 2061 02:05:43,200 --> 02:05:43,620 they have to. 2062 02:05:43,620 --> 02:05:46,350 That's very, very rare. They don't want to do that. These are 2063 02:05:46,380 --> 02:05:49,020 Conservation Officers. So their job is to keep bear safe. 2064 02:05:49,380 --> 02:05:53,700 So there you go. And then the entire report after that little 2065 02:05:53,700 --> 02:05:58,440 bit that he mentioned. No one ever said. So maybe this global 2066 02:05:58,440 --> 02:05:59,790 warming thing is bullcrap. 2067 02:06:02,430 --> 02:06:06,840 Well, he said in there that he did believe he did. Yeah, that 2068 02:06:06,840 --> 02:06:09,300 global warming is happening, probably. And it may be 2069 02:06:09,300 --> 02:06:12,270 affecting polar bears, but not necessarily adversely. 2070 02:06:12,930 --> 02:06:16,200 There there growing in population. They've never been 2071 02:06:16,200 --> 02:06:19,950 as big in the past 40 years. I got emails from I think a Dutch 2072 02:06:19,950 --> 02:06:23,010 listener or someone who may have listened. Or it was told to 2073 02:06:23,010 --> 02:06:26,880 email me I don't know. Like, I like you, man. But what's up 2074 02:06:26,880 --> 02:06:31,350 with you and climate change? The polar bears are dying. And I 2075 02:06:31,380 --> 02:06:31,980 know that 2076 02:06:31,980 --> 02:06:34,440 polar bears are dying. Yep. In the letter. Yes, literally, 2077 02:06:34,470 --> 02:06:35,190 well, well, 2078 02:06:35,190 --> 02:06:38,280 he's an idiot. He's Dutch. So he said, The polar bears are dying. 2079 02:06:38,280 --> 02:06:39,330 You shouldn't have a bitch. 2080 02:06:40,380 --> 02:06:43,890 He's a nut because of it. This is a known fact that comes up in 2081 02:06:43,890 --> 02:06:46,560 the conversation all the time that the bowl polar bears aren't 2082 02:06:46,560 --> 02:06:49,980 dying, but they keep harping on it. This is the same kind of 2083 02:06:49,980 --> 02:06:53,130 litany. There's like you got a checklist. Polar bears are 2084 02:06:53,130 --> 02:06:55,560 dying. Let's put that on the checklist has got to be checked 2085 02:06:55,560 --> 02:06:59,100 off. I mean, it's just annoying to see this kind of thing. Just 2086 02:06:59,100 --> 02:07:02,940 continue and continue and continue. It just unbelievable. 2087 02:07:02,970 --> 02:07:06,660 I mean, it's like fighting the net neutrality argument. It's 2088 02:07:06,660 --> 02:07:10,380 not. Is it worth the trouble? Well, we did get some income 2089 02:07:10,380 --> 02:07:13,170 today from a few people that want to be executive producers. 2090 02:07:13,170 --> 02:07:15,120 So yes, but I'm gonna 2091 02:07:15,120 --> 02:07:18,840 show my school by donating to no agenda. Imagine all the people 2092 02:07:18,840 --> 02:07:20,850 who could do that. Oh, yeah, that'd be fun 2093 02:07:29,010 --> 02:07:31,560 want to thank a few people want to mention that you know it, we 2094 02:07:31,560 --> 02:07:35,430 got some people. It's not a big deal. But I mean, it's not like 2095 02:07:35,460 --> 02:07:39,150 you know, we're making tons of money today, but it still keeps 2096 02:07:39,150 --> 02:07:42,570 us going. So we're going to thank him. Starting with Tim 2097 02:07:42,570 --> 02:07:47,880 White, from Parts Unknown $100 with Peter J. Boyle. $100 in 2098 02:07:47,880 --> 02:07:50,250 Pedro Villa fawn, which is one of my 2099 02:07:51,900 --> 02:07:53,130 he's also a blogger. 2100 02:07:53,490 --> 02:07:55,890 Oh, he and he sends a lot of emails. 2101 02:07:57,600 --> 02:07:58,890 They'll send computador 2102 02:07:59,820 --> 02:08:04,110 Yeah, he says, My Kandra 990 donation is record breaking 2103 02:08:04,110 --> 02:08:09,420 jetlag and from Convair by El Cid cumbia door.

But 2202 02:14:36,870 --> 02:14:41,310 here on CNN this was really mind boggling to me. Maybe not that 2203 02:14:41,310 --> 02:14:48,240 anybody else but we have April Ryan, who I think broke the 2204 02:14:48,390 --> 02:14:54,330 broke the story. We have the host things Brooke Baldwin and 2205 02:14:54,330 --> 02:14:57,720 Angela rye Angela Ray is the one I want you to focus on this 2206 02:14:57,720 --> 02:15:01,410 clip. She was a she worked with the Congressional Black Caucus I 2207 02:15:01,410 --> 02:15:05,040 believe she was a gofer? I don't know, but maybe I'm 2208 02:15:05,070 --> 02:15:07,590 mischaracterizing, but I'd never got the idea. She had a very 2209 02:15:07,590 --> 02:15:10,620 important role at the Congressional Black Caucus, but 2210 02:15:10,620 --> 02:15:15,690 she's been a CNN commentator, and a major hater of anything, 2211 02:15:15,690 --> 02:15:21,180 Trump anything Republican. And this story comes up and let's 2212 02:15:21,180 --> 02:15:22,440 listen to her response. 2213 02:15:22,470 --> 02:15:25,860 Same weekend she came and saddled up next to me trying to 2214 02:15:25,860 --> 02:15:28,350 do something, again with the President, the former president 2215 02:15:28,350 --> 02:15:31,320 of the United BJs, who she's friends with to stir up some 2216 02:15:31,380 --> 02:15:35,310 controversy. And we also know we remember that famous tape with 2217 02:15:35,310 --> 02:15:39,780 Ed Gordon, where she that I guess was Friday, where she was 2218 02:15:39,870 --> 02:15:43,530 battling it out on the stage.

You have skin folk, which means you're the 2244 02:17:09,240 --> 02:17:12,390 same color. Even though we don't like each other with skin folk. 2245 02:17:12,900 --> 02:17:16,650 Yeah.

We have her on this 2248 02:17:22,590 --> 02:17:26,850 on the CNN and she sounds like she's unhinged that 2249 02:17:27,450 --> 02:17:29,940 word for a while. And you ask the question. Why? Because 2250 02:17:29,940 --> 02:17:32,700 that's what they want. They want some unhinged people on the air. 2251 02:17:32,910 --> 02:17:36,690 And honestly, that's why I watch.

And I didn't do that in the residence 2254 02:17:45,150 --> 02:17:49,200 as being reported. John Kelly, and I sat down in the Situation 2255 02:17:49,200 --> 02:17:52,770 Room, which is a very secure, very quiet room in the White 2256 02:17:52,770 --> 02:17:57,390 House. And we had a very candid conversation. And I wanted to 2257 02:17:57,390 --> 02:18:01,020 make the one year mark, that was one of the goals that I set out 2258 02:18:01,020 --> 02:18:03,240 to, and then get back to my life. 2259 02:18:03,420 --> 02:18:06,240 So you resigned you weren't fired as of now. 2260 02:18:07,020 --> 02:18:11,730 And you know, I I like to hear all of these interesting tales. 2261 02:18:11,730 --> 02:18:16,050 But I have to tell you that they're 100% False. One of the 2262 02:18:16,050 --> 02:18:18,330 things that I'd asked of those people who are making those 2263 02:18:18,330 --> 02:18:22,950 assertions, since they assert that I did it so publicly, is 2264 02:18:22,980 --> 02:18:26,820 wherever the pictures or videos if I had confronted John Kelly, 2265 02:18:26,820 --> 02:18:30,390 who was a very formidable person, it would garner enough 2266 02:18:30,390 --> 02:18:33,210 attention for anyone in the room to at least take a picture. 2267 02:18:33,840 --> 02:18:36,720 So apparently, this all came down to like some White House 2268 02:18:36,720 --> 02:18:39,660 Party and she was yelling and screaming at Kelly in 2269 02:18:40,170 --> 02:18:43,890 our video or something. The assertion that I would do that 2270 02:18:43,890 --> 02:18:47,100 in front of 600 guests at a Christmas party and no one has 2271 02:18:47,100 --> 02:18:50,130 reported that except for one individual who has a personal 2272 02:18:50,130 --> 02:18:53,970 vendetta against me, and so I have to tell you completely 2273 02:18:53,970 --> 02:18:58,560 false, unverified reporting, and John Kelly and I had a very 2274 02:18:58,890 --> 02:19:02,700 straightforward discussion about concerns that I had issues that 2275 02:19:02,700 --> 02:19:07,770 I raised, and as a result, I resigned and it will be taking 2276 02:19:07,770 --> 02:19:11,640 place January the 20th when I leave this very interesting 2277 02:19:11,640 --> 02:19:12,570 administration so 2278 02:19:12,570 --> 02:19:14,550 we're seeing that all these reports are coming from one 2279 02:19:14,550 --> 02:19:15,240 person but you 2280 02:19:15,660 --> 02:19:18,870 know, let's let's be clear only one person only one person no 2281 02:19:18,870 --> 02:19:21,420 one else has reported what she's reporting and this is the one 2282 02:19:21,420 --> 02:19:25,320 person who has attacked me for the last year so you know that 2283 02:19:25,320 --> 02:19:26,160 this is personal. 2284 02:19:26,280 --> 02:19:30,570 And that was April Ryan.

Let me just read this to you. Headline. Will 2320 02:21:54,060 --> 02:21:58,830 Trump's Lowe's ever hit rock bottom? He was the lead 2321 02:21:59,400 --> 02:22:04,260 president who would all but call a senator a whore. He's unfit to 2322 02:22:04,260 --> 02:22:08,340 clean toilets in Obama's presidential library or to shine 2323 02:22:08,340 --> 02:22:12,480 George W. Bush's shoes. Whoa. 2324 02:22:14,220 --> 02:22:15,870 That right there just says it all. 2325 02:22:18,150 --> 02:22:21,720 With this latest tweet clearly implying clearly implying that 2326 02:22:21,720 --> 02:22:25,530 unitedly that are united in your mind and better than the United 2327 02:22:25,530 --> 02:22:29,940 States senator would trade sexual favors for campaign cash. 2328 02:22:31,290 --> 02:22:35,490 President Trump has shown he is not fit for Office. Rock bottom 2329 02:22:35,490 --> 02:22:38,850 is no impediment for a president who can always find room for a 2330 02:22:38,850 --> 02:22:39,990 new low. 2331 02:22:40,110 --> 02:22:45,120 Can I ask interesting, logical question? Sure. If Trump is such 2332 02:22:45,120 --> 02:22:49,530 a douchebag sleaze ball, wouldn't he have taken the 2333 02:22:49,530 --> 02:22:51,780 opportunity to get a blow job from her? 2334 02:22:51,930 --> 02:22:54,300 I'm thinking he might have. Yeah, well, 2335 02:22:54,300 --> 02:22:56,370 I don't think he did. Because I don't think that's what this 2336 02:22:56,370 --> 02:22:59,910 implies. Of course, it doesn't. He would have taken the blow job 2337 02:22:59,910 --> 02:23:00,930 and then bitched about it. 2338 02:23:02,280 --> 02:23:06,240 She was no good. It didn't work right. White House spokesman 2339 02:23:06,240 --> 02:23:08,310 Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Tuesday dismissed the 2340 02:23:08,310 --> 02:23:11,490 President's smear as a misunderstanding because let me 2341 02:23:11,490 --> 02:23:15,390 just read the tweet. So people have that in context. In 2342 02:23:15,390 --> 02:23:19,410 verbatim lightweight Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, a total 2343 02:23:19,410 --> 02:23:22,170 flunky for Chuck Schumer and someone who had come to my 2344 02:23:22,170 --> 02:23:26,910 office quote, begging, unquote, for campaign contributions not 2345 02:23:26,910 --> 02:23:31,020 so long ago in parentheses and would do anything for them. He's 2346 02:23:31,020 --> 02:23:34,980 now in the ring fighting against Trump very disloyal to Bill and 2347 02:23:34,980 --> 02:23:39,900 crooked used so that if your mind is there, you I guess you 2348 02:23:39,900 --> 02:23:43,770 can see that's calling her a whore. I think the only reason 2349 02:23:43,770 --> 02:23:47,100 why why people think that that's what he meant is because they 2350 02:23:47,100 --> 02:23:49,260 might have done it. I don't know. I mean, it's 2351 02:23:51,090 --> 02:23:51,690 anyway. 2352 02:23:53,400 --> 02:23:55,530 White House spokesman Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Tuesday 2353 02:23:55,530 --> 02:23:58,500 dismissed the president smear as a misunderstanding because he 2354 02:23:58,500 --> 02:24:01,830 used similar language about men. Of course, words used about men 2355 02:24:01,830 --> 02:24:05,340 and women are different. Okay. When candidate Trump said a 2356 02:24:05,340 --> 02:24:08,280 journalist was bleeding from her wherever he didn't mean her 2357 02:24:08,280 --> 02:24:10,680 nose. Another thing I disagree with. 2358 02:24:11,640 --> 02:24:13,860 You remember that? About Kelly 2359 02:24:13,860 --> 02:24:14,910 Megyn? Kelly? Yeah, 2360 02:24:14,910 --> 02:24:18,090 I remember it. I remember the context. And I remember the way 2361 02:24:18,090 --> 02:24:20,430 in fact, when I first heard it, I didn't think 2362 02:24:20,789 --> 02:24:23,699 that she was because our minds are not in the gutter. That's 2363 02:24:23,699 --> 02:24:24,209 why 2364 02:24:24,480 --> 02:24:27,030 he was he said, where she's bleeding. She bleeding from her 2365 02:24:27,030 --> 02:24:33,060 eyes or ears wherever. It wasn't seeming. It wasn't targeted. I 2366 02:24:33,060 --> 02:24:35,880 just didn't hear it. I didn't hear what everyone else heard, 2367 02:24:35,880 --> 02:24:39,600 which is the ah, oh, he just you know, he's smeared or somehow 2368 02:24:39,630 --> 02:24:45,060 were Trump apologists were Trump apologist and as they don't even 2369 02:24:45,060 --> 02:24:47,400 think much of the guy and I don't want to go. 2370 02:24:47,730 --> 02:24:51,780 And as is the case with all of Trump's digital provocations, 2371 02:24:52,140 --> 02:24:54,930 the President's words were deliberate. He pours the 2372 02:24:54,930 --> 02:24:58,470 gasoline of sexist language and lights the match gleefully 2373 02:24:58,560 --> 02:25:01,290 knowing how it will burst into flames. Amen a country reeling 2374 02:25:01,290 --> 02:25:04,920 from the hashtag me to movement. A president who would all but 2375 02:25:04,920 --> 02:25:09,180 call Senator Kirsten Gillibrand. A whore is not fit to clean the 2376 02:25:09,180 --> 02:25:10,950 toilets. Hey, Barack Obama twice. 2377 02:25:11,040 --> 02:25:11,520 Yeah. 2378 02:25:12,150 --> 02:25:15,840 So he took so the guy who wrote the editorial called Jilla 2379 02:25:15,840 --> 02:25:21,240 brand, a whore twice. Yes. So he's the guy calling You're a 2380 02:25:21,240 --> 02:25:26,970 whore. Yes. Okay. You want to get that straight go on. It 2381 02:25:26,970 --> 02:25:27,480 should 2382 02:25:27,540 --> 02:25:31,950 surprise no one how low he went with jeweler brand. When accused 2383 02:25:31,950 --> 02:25:35,190 during the campaign of sexually harassing or molesting women in 2384 02:25:35,190 --> 02:25:38,010 the past, Trump's response was to belittle the looks of his 2385 02:25:38,010 --> 02:25:42,930 accusers. Okay, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Let me see if 2386 02:25:42,930 --> 02:25:45,750 recent history is any guide, the unique off awfulness of the 2387 02:25:45,750 --> 02:25:49,770 Trump era in US politics is only going to get worse. Trump's 2388 02:25:49,800 --> 02:25:52,830 utter lack of morality, ethics and simple humanity has been 2389 02:25:52,860 --> 02:25:56,670 underscored during his 11 months in office. Let us count the ways 2390 02:25:57,120 --> 02:26:00,390 enthusiastically supporting Alabama Republican state Senate 2391 02:26:00,390 --> 02:26:02,850 candidate Roy Moore, who has been accused by 2392 02:26:03,750 --> 02:26:06,450 yes that earlier in the show, that's a lie. He was not 2393 02:26:06,450 --> 02:26:10,650 enthusiastic. And he's actually was for this guy. Strange. So 2394 02:26:10,650 --> 02:26:13,140 okay, let's let's just, I just want to make sure that we're 2395 02:26:13,140 --> 02:26:15,480 noticing that this is just a blatant 2396 02:26:15,480 --> 02:26:18,030 lie. Yep. It's going 2397 02:26:18,120 --> 02:26:21,660 Trump apparently is going for some sort of record for lying 2398 02:26:21,660 --> 02:26:25,830 while in office kettle pot. As of mid November, he had made 2399 02:26:25,830 --> 02:26:30,840 1628 misleading or false statements in 298 days in 2400 02:26:30,840 --> 02:26:35,490 office. That's 5.5 false claims per day. According to The 2401 02:26:35,490 --> 02:26:39,690 Washington Post, fact checkers fact check false. Trump takes 2402 02:26:39,690 --> 02:26:43,110 advantage of any occasion, even Monday's failed terrorist attack 2403 02:26:43,110 --> 02:26:47,040 in New York to stir racial religious or ethnic strife. I 2404 02:26:47,040 --> 02:26:52,080 agree with that. That was very annoying to me. Where we still 2405 02:26:52,080 --> 02:26:55,710 don't know Jack crap about Vegas, but this guy we know who 2406 02:26:55,710 --> 02:26:58,830 he is. We know is chain migration. We mean that people 2407 02:26:58,830 --> 02:27:02,580 talking about China and chain migration. I totally suspect 2408 02:27:04,020 --> 02:27:10,380 this failed attempt because it's failed. As a ruse. The end I 2409 02:27:10,380 --> 02:27:13,320 think Trump's in on it. I'm not. I don't think I don't put it 2410 02:27:13,320 --> 02:27:13,980 beyond him. 2411 02:27:14,970 --> 02:27:16,890 I really don't or the administration. 2412 02:27:19,650 --> 02:27:22,170 A man who really wants to put his stamp on the government 2413 02:27:22,170 --> 02:27:24,870 Trump hasn't even done his job when it comes to filling key 2414 02:27:24,870 --> 02:27:29,670 government positions that require Senate confirmation. And 2415 02:27:29,670 --> 02:27:32,340 then the final point Trump has shown contempt for ethical 2416 02:27:32,340 --> 02:27:34,560 strictures. What is he mentioned, 2417 02:27:34,590 --> 02:27:37,410 as he mentioned about the Senate confirmation that Jilla Bran who 2418 02:27:37,440 --> 02:27:41,880 who has all voted no against every possible confirmation 2419 02:27:41,910 --> 02:27:42,960 which he admits to. 2420 02:27:43,560 --> 02:27:45,300 Nope. Okay. Nope. 2421 02:27:46,080 --> 02:27:52,380 What are ethical strictures? Str I see t u r e s strictures 2422 02:27:52,439 --> 02:27:56,609 straight up ethical standards below standards that have 2423 02:27:56,609 --> 02:28:00,569 bound every president in recent memory. He has refused to 2424 02:28:00,569 --> 02:28:04,709 release his tax returns with the absurd excuse that it's because 2425 02:28:04,709 --> 02:28:07,469 he's under audit. He has refused to put his multibillion dollar 2426 02:28:07,469 --> 02:28:09,929 business interests in a blind trust and pedals. The fiction 2427 02:28:09,929 --> 02:28:13,109 that putting them in the hands of his sons does the same thing. 2428 02:28:13,619 --> 02:28:17,099 Not to mention calling white supremacist very fine people. 2429 02:28:17,399 --> 02:28:21,359 pardoning a lawless sheriff. Firing a respected FBI director 2430 02:28:21,419 --> 02:28:23,879 and pushing the Justice Department to investigate his 2431 02:28:23,879 --> 02:28:28,979 political foes is a shock that only six Democratic senators are 2432 02:28:28,979 --> 02:28:34,139 calling for our unstable president to resign. The nation 2433 02:28:34,139 --> 02:28:37,049 does not seek nor expect perfect presidents and some have 2434 02:28:37,049 --> 02:28:40,109 certainly been deeply flawed. But a president who shows such 2435 02:28:40,109 --> 02:28:43,109 disrespect for the truth for ethics for the basic duties of 2436 02:28:43,109 --> 02:28:46,649 the job and for decency towards others fails at the very essence 2437 02:28:46,649 --> 02:28:49,409 of what has always made America great. 2438 02:28:50,250 --> 02:28:50,640 Now, 2439 02:28:51,840 --> 02:28:55,920 along with this, I because this is clearly dimension b this is 2440 02:28:55,920 --> 02:29:00,150 alternative universe, this is this is their, their perception. 2441 02:29:00,240 --> 02:29:04,140 So it's their reality, I cannot win, nor am I interested in 2442 02:29:04,320 --> 02:29:07,320 fighting that is, you know, people see it this way and they 2443 02:29:07,320 --> 02:29:10,080 believe it and you just can't help it. But right, it's fine. 2444 02:29:10,470 --> 02:29:14,160 Where this comes from, is something deeply rooted and we 2445 02:29:14,160 --> 02:29:17,940 talked about it after sometimes, John, I'll give each other 2446 02:29:17,940 --> 02:29:22,050 little tips of things to watch. I doubt you had a chance to look 2447 02:29:22,050 --> 02:29:25,590 yet and probably better because you will hate it so much. Did 2448 02:29:25,590 --> 02:29:28,680 you watch the new Sarah Silverman show on HBO? 2449 02:29:29,250 --> 02:29:30,150 No good. 2450 02:29:31,470 --> 02:29:36,900 This is from one of the episodes and I had this one I think 2451 02:29:36,900 --> 02:29:39,630 tonight decided to have sex instead of watching the rest of 2452 02:29:39,630 --> 02:29:44,460 it, which was a good decision. And when you but when you listen 2453 02:29:44,460 --> 02:29:45,120 to this 2454 02:29:46,500 --> 02:29:50,730 little monologue explore explains 2455 02:29:51,449 --> 02:29:53,819 well, at least it doesn't explain how it happened but it 2456 02:29:53,819 --> 02:29:58,379 shows you what's going on in in the alternative universes where 2457 02:29:58,379 --> 02:30:00,659 their perception is the following Reality. 2458 02:30:00,780 --> 02:30:04,290 I had a boyfriend many years ago. He was my first boyfriend 2459 02:30:04,290 --> 02:30:07,620 who had his own house. And one day I went outside to see what 2460 02:30:07,620 --> 02:30:11,430 he was doing. And he was hoisting an American flag up the 2461 02:30:11,430 --> 02:30:17,040 flagpole in his front yard. And I instantly felt very weird. It 2462 02:30:17,040 --> 02:30:21,030 didn't make sense. But I felt this feeling of like, I felt 2463 02:30:21,030 --> 02:30:25,500 scared. Yeah, I felt scared. And so I was like, What are you 2464 02:30:25,500 --> 02:30:30,870 doing? And he just said, raising the flag. And I was like, why? 2465 02:30:31,080 --> 02:30:35,640 And he's like, um, because I love America. And I was like, 2466 02:30:36,210 --> 02:30:42,870 right, right, of course. But inside, I was shaken. And then I 2467 02:30:42,870 --> 02:30:46,050 calmly walked to my car, and I got inside, and I called my 2468 02:30:46,050 --> 02:30:48,870 sister Susie to tell her what happened. Now, maybe you're 2469 02:30:48,870 --> 02:30:51,720 thinking, What do you mean? What happened? Nothing happened. Your 2470 02:30:51,720 --> 02:30:55,170 boyfriend put an American flag up at his own house? No, you're 2471 02:30:55,170 --> 02:30:59,400 totally right. I had no idea why I was freaking out. I just I had 2472 02:30:59,400 --> 02:31:04,530 this very visceral reaction. And my sister who knows cuz she's a 2473 02:31:04,530 --> 02:31:09,000 rabbi in Israel explained to me she was like, dude, nationalism 2474 02:31:09,000 --> 02:31:13,500 is innately terrifying for Jews think about it, flags, marching 2475 02:31:13,500 --> 02:31:17,700 blind allegiance, these things tend to ring a bell for us. 2476 02:31:18,000 --> 02:31:23,040 Right? Of course, duh. It made sense. And it made me realize 2477 02:31:23,040 --> 02:31:26,760 that the things that terrify some people are the same things 2478 02:31:26,760 --> 02:31:29,880 that give other people great comfort. You know, it's like, 2479 02:31:30,810 --> 02:31:33,750 like the way the sight of a police car might give some 2480 02:31:33,750 --> 02:31:41,040 people comfort, for instance, white people. Or it might make 2481 02:31:41,070 --> 02:31:45,450 other people very uncomfortable, like, say, unarmed black 2482 02:31:45,450 --> 02:31:51,510 children playing in a park. Oh, and I guess like the Duke boys, 2483 02:31:51,750 --> 02:31:54,750 they always had run ins with the cops, didn't they, but they 2484 02:31:54,750 --> 02:31:56,940 would have been shot dead in episode one. If they weren't 2485 02:31:56,940 --> 02:32:01,650 white as the driven snow with a confederate flag on the top. I 2486 02:32:01,650 --> 02:32:05,640 find that a nationalist movements tend to kind of 2487 02:32:05,640 --> 02:32:09,420 exploit patriotism for their own cause, like take a slogan, like, 2488 02:32:09,600 --> 02:32:14,040 Make America Great Again, or America First they go down easy, 2489 02:32:14,040 --> 02:32:18,420 they sound patriotic. But patriotism and nationalism, to 2490 02:32:18,420 --> 02:32:22,560 me are very different things like patriotism is loving your 2491 02:32:22,560 --> 02:32:26,310 country. I'm a total patriot, I love my country. Whereas 2492 02:32:26,310 --> 02:32:31,170 nationalism has this like we're number one vibe. And I fear that 2493 02:32:31,170 --> 02:32:35,160 that we're number one nationalism is really like an 2494 02:32:35,160 --> 02:32:38,790 old bed buddy of racism and xenophobia. And by the way, if 2495 02:32:38,790 --> 02:32:41,760 something is truly number one, you don't have to go around 2496 02:32:41,760 --> 02:32:46,590 saying all the time. It's kind of like a beta move. Really. I 2497 02:32:46,590 --> 02:32:49,320 mean, Harvard doesn't take out ads that say Harvard, the 2498 02:32:49,320 --> 02:32:53,880 world's number one college apply now. The failing Princeton is 2499 02:32:53,880 --> 02:32:55,650 number three sad. 2500 02:32:58,830 --> 02:33:01,650 Before we discuss it, I would like to read from Harvard. 2501 02:33:02,580 --> 02:33:05,820 Harvard is the best school because the best students choose 2502 02:33:05,820 --> 02:33:09,450 Harvard. Year after year students are accepted to Harvard 2503 02:33:09,450 --> 02:33:12,030 and other schools pick Harvard over other schools in the 2504 02:33:12,030 --> 02:33:15,270 majority of cases, when students are admitted to both Harvard and 2505 02:33:15,270 --> 02:33:19,560 Yale, for example, 58% of students choose Harvard or Yale. 2506 02:33:20,340 --> 02:33:23,370 I mean, come on, Sarah. But there it is. 2507 02:33:23,400 --> 02:33:27,030 No, this There it is. There it is, to me in a nutshell, the 2508 02:33:27,030 --> 02:33:30,570 idea that the American flag that it freaks her out that it's 2509 02:33:30,570 --> 02:33:37,380 scary to her with that as the undercurrent of what is present 2510 02:33:37,680 --> 02:33:41,430 in the United States of Gitmo nation. I think we're done. I 2511 02:33:41,430 --> 02:33:46,110 mean, we are the we invented the big foam finger number one, we 2512 02:33:46,110 --> 02:33:50,040 invented that we know we're endearing and mocked for it. 2513 02:33:50,070 --> 02:33:51,150 It's who we are. 2514 02:33:53,400 --> 02:33:55,770 Thank you always do this. 2515 02:33:56,880 --> 02:34:01,110 You'll take something like this idiots who is not a professor of 2516 02:34:01,110 --> 02:34:04,920 anything. She's a professor of comedy, choose trying to be 2517 02:34:04,920 --> 02:34:08,160 funny. And then you'll make some comment. You've done this a 2518 02:34:08,160 --> 02:34:12,720 number of times and it's fair. I find it very galling. You you 2519 02:34:12,720 --> 02:34:15,090 go, Oh, we're done. We're through. We're fucked up. Where 2520 02:34:15,090 --> 02:34:17,640 do where does it? We're done with Maslow's shooters house. 2521 02:34:18,000 --> 02:34:19,980 And you take this very negative look 2522 02:34:19,980 --> 02:34:22,860 at at what point did I use the F word or say we might as well 2523 02:34:22,860 --> 02:34:27,270 shoot ourselves? That is your interpretation and your skill. 2524 02:34:27,270 --> 02:34:27,450 You've 2525 02:34:27,449 --> 02:34:29,849 done it before. You never be well, you you when did you use 2526 02:34:29,849 --> 02:34:33,389 the F word? I don't know you use it. But it's beside the point. 2527 02:34:33,389 --> 02:34:36,659 I'm just trying to exempt trying to point out that you have taken 2528 02:34:36,659 --> 02:34:40,619 this negative approach. When you see some lunatic like Sarah 2529 02:34:40,619 --> 02:34:44,579 Silverman, who goes on and I think you're right about the 2530 02:34:44,579 --> 02:34:47,639 whole your analysis is right. She's she's got a screw loose 2531 02:34:47,639 --> 02:34:52,019 and she's weird. But it doesn't mean we're done by any means. It 2532 02:34:52,019 --> 02:34:53,579 just means she's done. 2533 02:34:53,610 --> 02:34:58,050 Ben, how's it? How's it how's it going here in America so far? I 2534 02:34:58,050 --> 02:35:03,030 don't know. Ever If there's a lot of harmony, there's 2535 02:35:03,089 --> 02:35:06,119 some just don't harmony, but I'm looking at your pack. 2536 02:35:06,419 --> 02:35:09,059 Okay. All right. All right. All right. So it's galling to you. 2537 02:35:09,059 --> 02:35:13,229 Fine. Here's my question to you. Where does this come from this 2538 02:35:13,229 --> 02:35:18,809 fear of someone hoisting the flag because they love their 2539 02:35:18,809 --> 02:35:23,009 country. Where does that what explain to me? When did this 2540 02:35:23,009 --> 02:35:26,009 happen? Now she throws in a Jew joke like, Okay, sure. That's 2541 02:35:26,009 --> 02:35:28,619 very funny. The smart rabbi told her this is what it was 2542 02:35:28,649 --> 02:35:32,519 bullcrap. But I think I think this is something that is 2543 02:35:32,519 --> 02:35:36,929 present and real. Yeah, I'm not gonna argue that so where does 2544 02:35:36,929 --> 02:35:38,339 it come from? How did this happen? 2545 02:35:38,340 --> 02:35:41,850 Realism. This is the globalist this is your you've explained 2546 02:35:41,850 --> 02:35:45,930 the globalist perspective which is dimension B with no borders, 2547 02:35:45,930 --> 02:35:50,610 no, no barriers, no prisons, no borders, no flags, no countries. 2548 02:35:50,850 --> 02:35:54,240 And that's that that is permeated. That is the problem, 2549 02:35:54,570 --> 02:35:57,780 which is this globalism always you were just one big happy 2550 02:35:57,780 --> 02:36:01,350 kumbaya word world government. That should be just fine. Let 2551 02:36:01,350 --> 02:36:04,710 George Soros take over the place. And she's just reflecting 2552 02:36:04,710 --> 02:36:05,580 but how 2553 02:36:05,580 --> 02:36:10,290 did how did that get in? To the her psyche as schools Okay, 2554 02:36:10,320 --> 02:36:12,960 schools. Yeah, it's in her state 2555 02:36:12,960 --> 02:36:15,810 civics anymore. They don't teach American history the way it 2556 02:36:15,810 --> 02:36:18,300 should be taught. They don't they have no pride in the 2557 02:36:18,300 --> 02:36:21,510 country, that hood entire school system. They've just demean 2558 02:36:21,510 --> 02:36:24,480 everything and they but they promote the globalist One World 2559 02:36:24,480 --> 02:36:27,780 Government internationalist movement. And that's what that's 2560 02:36:27,780 --> 02:36:29,520 what our show fights. 2561 02:36:29,939 --> 02:36:32,279 Oh, I'm still fighting. It doesn't mean just because I say 2562 02:36:32,279 --> 02:36:35,189 that I think we're doomed doesn't mean we don't fight it. 2563 02:36:35,429 --> 02:36:39,389 Do. Oh, wow. For Mr. Krank to call me the crank 2564 02:36:40,410 --> 02:36:43,770 rich before but about five months ago, you did the same 2565 02:36:43,770 --> 02:36:46,500 thing. You got real depressed about somebody. So 2566 02:36:46,500 --> 02:36:49,290 five months? Wow. Every five months, I'd say something that 2567 02:36:49,290 --> 02:36:52,590 really golf. You gotta be you gotta be close man complain 2568 02:36:52,590 --> 02:36:56,160 about the potholes again. And we're done with it. I got other 2569 02:36:56,160 --> 02:36:58,830 things to complain about. And I rarely complain about the 2570 02:36:58,830 --> 02:37:02,430 potholes. I got something to complain about. You've got 2571 02:37:02,430 --> 02:37:06,240 something to complain about. It's not just the FBI who was 2572 02:37:06,240 --> 02:37:11,490 corrupt and rotten, and is part of the deep state trying to get 2573 02:37:11,490 --> 02:37:17,100 their way. CIA has their fingerprints all over a lot of 2574 02:37:17,100 --> 02:37:20,820 this muck. And that was demonstrated by Mike Morrell. 2575 02:37:20,820 --> 02:37:26,970 Right. Right. He says right, at least after every other sentence 2576 02:37:26,970 --> 02:37:27,720 in this interview. 2577 02:37:28,950 --> 02:37:32,250 Right, did you i I'm surprised he doesn't say it more. 2578 02:37:32,400 --> 02:37:35,880 So he did an interview with us with political and the political 2579 02:37:35,880 --> 02:37:38,580 interviewer also has some funny comments in there. And he's 2580 02:37:38,580 --> 02:37:44,760 pretty much admitting that CIA really, really messed with then 2581 02:37:44,760 --> 02:37:48,420 candidate and to this day, still with President Donald Trump 2582 02:37:48,450 --> 02:37:54,000 in August of 2016. When I became political, right, when I 2583 02:37:54,030 --> 02:37:57,690 write when I became political, let me tell you what happened, 2584 02:37:57,690 --> 02:38:00,570 son, you didn't become political. You were told to be 2585 02:38:00,570 --> 02:38:05,010 political. You know, God, it just does. I find it very 2586 02:38:05,010 --> 02:38:08,400 disingenuous. I became political was so hard for me to do that. 2587 02:38:08,400 --> 02:38:11,550 No, you were told to do it. You didn't like say, hey, I want to 2588 02:38:11,550 --> 02:38:14,550 go be political. Is that okay? CIA, not how it works 2589 02:38:14,550 --> 02:38:20,490 in August of 2016. When I became political, right, when I 2590 02:38:20,490 --> 02:38:24,030 endorsed Hillary Clinton, with an op ed in the New York Times, 2591 02:38:24,030 --> 02:38:27,930 and that was, that was a very difficult decision. 2592 02:38:28,170 --> 02:38:31,140 Unless let's remember that this happened right after he 2593 02:38:31,140 --> 02:38:35,400 resigned. He did that op ed, it wasn't like a period of 2594 02:38:35,400 --> 02:38:39,210 reflection. Right away. Good point. Good point. Thank 2595 02:38:39,210 --> 02:38:42,150 you, me, because I had never been political before. I worked 2596 02:38:42,150 --> 02:38:47,340 at this non political agency, bright red line between between 2597 02:38:47,340 --> 02:38:49,800 intelligence and policy and intelligence and politics, 2598 02:38:49,800 --> 02:38:54,030 right. I had never played in their world before. But I was so 2599 02:38:54,540 --> 02:38:58,890 deeply concerned about what a what a Trump presidency might 2600 02:38:58,920 --> 02:39:02,790 look like, from a national security perspective, and 2601 02:39:03,180 --> 02:39:07,140 believe that there was such a gap between Secretary Clinton 2602 02:39:07,170 --> 02:39:11,550 and Donald Trump with regard to how well they would protect the 2603 02:39:11,550 --> 02:39:15,870 country that I that I thought it extremely important to come out 2604 02:39:15,870 --> 02:39:18,870 and say that okay, so flash forward a year, was that a 2605 02:39:18,870 --> 02:39:21,990 mistake? I don't think it was a mistake. I think there were 2606 02:39:21,990 --> 02:39:28,110 downsides to it that I didn't think about at the time. I was 2607 02:39:28,110 --> 02:39:30,690 concerned about what is the impact? It would have been the 2608 02:39:30,690 --> 02:39:34,050 agency. Right, very concerned about that thought that through, 2609 02:39:34,440 --> 02:39:36,420 but I don't think I fully thought through the 2610 02:39:36,420 --> 02:39:38,910 implications. And one of the ways I've thought about that 2611 02:39:38,910 --> 02:39:44,280 Susan is okay, how did Donald Trump see this? Right and, and 2612 02:39:44,280 --> 02:39:47,040 from it's very important, right, one of the things we do as 2613 02:39:47,040 --> 02:39:50,820 intelligence analysts is make sure that our guy the President 2614 02:39:50,820 --> 02:39:55,350 understands the other guy right. So let's put ourselves here in 2615 02:39:55,350 --> 02:40:00,360 Donald Trump's shoes. So what does he see? Right? He see He's 2616 02:40:00,690 --> 02:40:04,680 a former director of CIA and a former director of NSA, Mike 2617 02:40:04,680 --> 02:40:09,360 Hayden, who I have the greatest respect for criticizing George 2618 02:40:09,360 --> 02:40:13,230 and his policies. Right, right. And he could rightfully have 2619 02:40:13,230 --> 02:40:16,110 said, Hmm, you know, what's going on with these intelligence 2620 02:40:16,110 --> 02:40:20,550 guys, right? embroideries his narrative? Exactly. And then he 2621 02:40:20,550 --> 02:40:23,580 sees a former acting director and deputy director of CIA, 2622 02:40:24,180 --> 02:40:29,850 criticizing him and endorsing his opponent. And and then he 2623 02:40:29,850 --> 02:40:32,400 gets his first intelligence briefing after becoming the 2624 02:40:32,400 --> 02:40:36,480 Republican nominee. And within 24 to 48 hours, there are leaks 2625 02:40:36,900 --> 02:40:40,350 out of that, that are critical of him, and his then National 2626 02:40:40,350 --> 02:40:43,860 Security Adviser Mike Flynn. And so this stuff starts to build 2627 02:40:43,860 --> 02:40:47,220 right. And he must have said to himself, What is it with these 2628 02:40:47,220 --> 02:40:50,070 intelligence guys? Are they political, the current director 2629 02:40:50,070 --> 02:40:53,790 at the time, John Brennan, during the campaign occasionally 2630 02:40:53,790 --> 02:40:57,810 would push back on things that Donald Trump had said, so when 2631 02:40:57,960 --> 02:41:00,900 when Trump talked about the Iran nuclear deal being the worst 2632 02:41:00,900 --> 02:41:04,500 deal, right in the history of American diplomacy, and he was 2633 02:41:04,500 --> 02:41:07,650 going to tear it up right on the first day, you know, John, John 2634 02:41:07,650 --> 02:41:10,080 Brennan came out publicly and said, that would be an act of 2635 02:41:10,080 --> 02:41:14,190 folly. So he sees a current sitting director pushing back on 2636 02:41:14,190 --> 02:41:18,600 him right. Then he becomes president. And he's supposed to 2637 02:41:18,600 --> 02:41:21,360 be getting a daily brief from the moment he becomes the 2638 02:41:21,360 --> 02:41:25,410 president elect. Right. And he does it. And within a few days, 2639 02:41:25,410 --> 02:41:28,530 there's leaks about how he's not taking his briefing. So he must 2640 02:41:28,530 --> 02:41:32,880 have thought, right? That and who are these guys? These guys 2641 02:41:32,910 --> 02:41:36,510 have to get me? Is this a political organization? Can I 2642 02:41:36,510 --> 02:41:39,960 think about them as a political organization? When I when I 2643 02:41:40,230 --> 02:41:42,840 become president, right. Okay, 2644 02:41:42,870 --> 02:41:45,720 what is it? Right count, I think was 15. 2645 02:41:45,810 --> 02:41:47,940 Patrol. I think you missed a couple. 2646 02:41:48,000 --> 02:41:51,300 Now the chatter of the troll room was counting. But but you 2647 02:41:51,300 --> 02:41:55,260 hear what he's saying that he's he's saying we leaked. And then 2648 02:41:55,260 --> 02:41:58,020 we didn't give him briefings. And we said he didn't take 2649 02:41:58,020 --> 02:42:02,640 briefings. He, maybe he's stating it incorrectly. But it 2650 02:42:02,640 --> 02:42:04,980 sure sounds like it. And there's another piece to this 2651 02:42:04,980 --> 02:42:08,250 for every other part of the intelligence community, except 2652 02:42:08,250 --> 02:42:12,600 CIA, you're working for a cabinet member. at CIA, you are 2653 02:42:12,600 --> 02:42:15,390 working for the president united states that is your customer, 2654 02:42:15,390 --> 02:42:20,970 right? So when you see your customer questioning what it is 2655 02:42:21,030 --> 02:42:27,720 that you are providing to him or her. And that person seems to be 2656 02:42:27,720 --> 02:42:31,440 cherry picking. Right, what they what they accept and what they 2657 02:42:31,440 --> 02:42:38,040 don't accept. It's demoralizing. And, and when it's when it's 2658 02:42:38,040 --> 02:42:43,560 demoralizing. People take actions, right. So I live pretty 2659 02:42:43,560 --> 02:42:46,260 close to the agency. There's a coffee shop between me and the 2660 02:42:46,260 --> 02:42:51,360 agency. And I've met, I've met a number of agency officers in 2661 02:42:51,360 --> 02:42:52,560 that coffee shop that 2662 02:42:52,560 --> 02:42:55,560 we need to find out what coffee shop this is, this sounds like 2663 02:42:55,560 --> 02:42:59,370 an a fat, fantastic place to go hang out. Because that's where 2664 02:42:59,370 --> 02:43:00,360 the spokes all hang. 2665 02:43:00,660 --> 02:43:03,150 I live pretty close to the agency. There's a coffee shop 2666 02:43:03,150 --> 02:43:07,860 between me and the agency. And I've met I've met a number of 2667 02:43:07,890 --> 02:43:11,220 agency officers in that coffee shop who have said to me I'm you 2668 02:43:11,220 --> 02:43:15,930 know, I'm thinking about leaving. And my my, my push back 2669 02:43:15,930 --> 02:43:18,450 to them is Your country needs you now more than ever don't 2670 02:43:18,450 --> 02:43:24,510 leave, right. But it does, it does lead people to question 2671 02:43:24,510 --> 02:43:29,760 whether or not what they're doing is a value. And it's like 2672 02:43:29,790 --> 02:43:34,530 working there is really hard. The problems are hard. They're 2673 02:43:34,530 --> 02:43:38,100 complex, they're not easy to solve. Some of these targets 2674 02:43:38,100 --> 02:43:39,690 that we're we're trying to collect intelligence are 2675 02:43:39,690 --> 02:43:43,200 extraordinarily difficult. People operate in very dangerous 2676 02:43:43,200 --> 02:43:46,740 places. The hours are long, the pressure on families is is 2677 02:43:46,740 --> 02:43:51,270 really tough. And so if you think what you're doing doesn't 2678 02:43:51,270 --> 02:43:55,140 matter, because the president United States is selectively 2679 02:43:55,140 --> 02:43:56,580 listening and has impact. 2680 02:43:56,970 --> 02:44:02,340 Oh, geez. What a crock. Yeah, 2681 02:44:03,060 --> 02:44:07,230 but those thinking of leaving because Trump didn't take my 2682 02:44:07,230 --> 02:44:08,010 report, 2683 02:44:08,099 --> 02:44:11,759 bull crap. Bull. They didn't even give him the report. 2684 02:44:11,820 --> 02:44:14,010 They won't even give them the report or the right briefings. 2685 02:44:14,010 --> 02:44:15,960 Who are they maybe they're thinking of leaving because 2686 02:44:15,960 --> 02:44:19,800 their bosses are a holes and they want to leave? You know, 2687 02:44:19,800 --> 02:44:27,600 Brandon was a Muslim. I know. A little bit. Ya know, I've owned 2688 02:44:27,600 --> 02:44:28,140 up to 2689 02:44:28,380 --> 02:44:32,250 I have a number of short shortest clips maybe keeping for 2690 02:44:32,250 --> 02:44:34,920 Sunday. I don't understand why they haven't called this text 2691 02:44:34,920 --> 02:44:37,380 gate yet. I've been waiting for someone to do it. Why don't we 2692 02:44:37,380 --> 02:44:45,720 just say it? These text messages between FBI agent scrotum and 2693 02:44:45,720 --> 02:44:47,550 his girlfriend Lisa page. 2694 02:44:50,370 --> 02:44:53,970 You want to know we want to hear this? Why don't we 2695 02:44:53,970 --> 02:44:57,000 put that off because I want to I think we've wrapped up I do have 2696 02:44:57,000 --> 02:45:01,260 one short short 37 second clip which answers went to your 2697 02:45:01,260 --> 02:45:03,990 questions? I thought we'd get it out of the way out of the way. 2698 02:45:04,170 --> 02:45:08,460 Uh huh. Which is what where's the polar vortex 2699 02:45:08,489 --> 02:45:11,249 tracking it all I know it's not officially here, but it's here 2700 02:45:12,809 --> 02:45:15,629 it is and it's been a biting wind all day long New York not 2701 02:45:15,629 --> 02:45:17,819 alone. As you mentioned, take a look at some of these numbers, 2702 02:45:17,819 --> 02:45:20,549 what it feels like right now across much of the Northeast 2703 02:45:20,549 --> 02:45:23,189 single digits and many sports teams and as we look ahead 2704 02:45:23,189 --> 02:45:25,709 towards tomorrow afternoon, really it doesn't get any 2705 02:45:25,709 --> 02:45:28,169 warmer, nor does it on Friday because we've got a strong 2706 02:45:28,169 --> 02:45:30,389 Alberta Clipper that's bringing that snow to the Great Lakes. 2707 02:45:30,569 --> 02:45:32,819 That's gonna share more in the way of cold air right now. It's 2708 02:45:32,819 --> 02:45:36,269 got snow covering the entire hand of Michigan, Detroit and 2709 02:45:36,269 --> 02:45:38,489 getting into Pittsburgh could see four to eight inches of snow 2710 02:45:38,489 --> 02:45:41,159 including northern parts of Ohio. By the time it gets into 2711 02:45:41,159 --> 02:45:43,799 New York though tomorrow in New Jersey, only one to three inches 2712 02:45:43,799 --> 02:45:46,349 but maybe enough to slip up the morning rush. David, 2713 02:45:46,589 --> 02:45:51,239 thank you. Thank you for solving this great mystery. The Alberta 2714 02:45:51,239 --> 02:45:54,749 Clipper that's right the clipper did it.

But he wasn't content to 2727 02:46:27,840 --> 02:46:32,910 just disparage Donald Trump. He had to disparage Donald Trump's 2728 02:46:32,910 --> 02:46:36,540 family. This is what he said Mr. Deputy Attorney General, he said 2729 02:46:36,540 --> 02:46:39,240 the douchebags are about to come out. He's talking about our 2730 02:46:39,240 --> 02:46:44,370 First Lady and showed this conflict of interest for a 2731 02:46:44,400 --> 02:46:46,470 special agent of the FBI. 2732 02:46:47,070 --> 02:46:50,070 I love that just anyone who will use the word douchebag in 2733 02:46:50,070 --> 02:46:56,970 Congress as it has my vote.
