00:00:04.070 --> 00:00:05.173
What do you want to do tonight?

00:00:05.780 --> 00:00:09.846
The same thing we do every night Pinky, Try to take over the world.

00:00:13.102 --> 00:00:14.788
All right, yo, let's get into it.

00:00:14.788 --> 00:00:16.387
Try to take over the world.

00:00:16.839 --> 00:00:18.559
You're preaching freedom.

00:00:18.559 --> 00:00:20.025
Try to take over the world.

00:00:24.701 --> 00:00:26.185
And bring this chaplain in the world.

00:00:26.185 --> 00:00:40.912
Mr lanson, take over the world on a sunday.

00:00:41.014 --> 00:00:46.762
I had to run out real quick one of my rappers needed me, so I had to try to sneak off and beat the intro, but I'm back though.

00:00:46.762 --> 00:00:50.512
Welcome everyone to another Sunday edition of Two Pogues.

00:00:50.512 --> 00:00:58.469
It's your boy, kj Braley, and the greatest chaplain in the world, mr Lance O'Neill, and we have quite an interesting conversation.

00:00:58.469 --> 00:01:01.103
This week it was a lot going on.

00:01:01.103 --> 00:01:02.304
We got a lot to talk about.

00:01:02.304 --> 00:01:11.313
Obviously, potus keeps us rocking and rolling, but Congress, in their infinite wisdom, has also gave us a lot to talk about.

00:01:11.313 --> 00:01:16.111
So where in the realm of politics, my dear colleague, would you like to start?

00:01:16.111 --> 00:01:29.424
This week we got Congress, we got the Supreme Court that was rocking and rolling this week, and we got POTUS obviously doing POTUS things this week and we got potus obviously doing potus things well, I would say, dealer's choice.

00:01:29.444 --> 00:01:34.274
But the only one that I I I'm guessing we're both, uh, read up on would be the scotus pushing it back.

00:01:34.274 --> 00:01:37.623
Okay, so, great start.

00:01:38.623 --> 00:01:48.975
Yes, let's, let's look at what the Trump administration is doing in terms of broad strokes, right?

00:01:48.975 --> 00:01:54.629
The Trump administration has said we are going to come in and we are going to.

00:01:54.629 --> 00:02:00.780
We have a, we have a mandate and we're going to do what we think is absolutely necessary to fix this country.

00:02:00.780 --> 00:02:15.526
After four years of Sleepy Joe being asleep at the wheel, and who signed the auto pen and that's illegal and blah, okay, well, what they've also done is they said we are going to be, we're going to push the limits and we're going to be creative, right?

00:02:15.526 --> 00:02:30.125
So one of the first ones and this is the one that happened this week was using the aliens and sedition act to say we are going to deport people who are in this country illegally, using the Alien and Sedition Act.

00:02:30.125 --> 00:02:33.893
The circuit court came out and said nope, you can't do that.

00:02:33.893 --> 00:02:43.828
I believe it was the Fifth Circuit Went to SCOTUS and SCOTUS said hey, we're not going to remove the injunction, because the Fifth said, hey, you cannot use this.

00:02:43.828 --> 00:02:45.211
It went to SCOTUS.

00:02:45.211 --> 00:02:52.078
Scotus said well, it needs to go back to the Fifth, you need to be more specific about this.

00:02:52.078 --> 00:02:58.537
And they kicked it back to the court without removing the injunction 7-2.

00:02:58.598 --> 00:03:00.742
And you have a lot of people saying that's a win for.

00:03:00.742 --> 00:03:10.786
I'm not even sure who you'd say it's a win for for the illegal aliens, for the Democrats, for the anti-Trump Trumpers?

00:03:10.786 --> 00:03:11.747
I'm not sure.

00:03:11.747 --> 00:03:17.115
But I'm not sure who the winner there is in that.

00:03:17.115 --> 00:03:17.941
But Trump is not.

00:03:17.941 --> 00:03:20.683
Trump doesn't win on that per se right.

00:03:20.683 --> 00:03:28.812
And, of course, alito and Thomas, right in line what I figured they would do, they said well, hey, we're not.

00:03:28.812 --> 00:03:29.693
Why are we doing this?

00:03:29.693 --> 00:03:32.596
That's not what we're supposed to be doing.

00:03:32.596 --> 00:03:41.165
You guys, you know, if you think this is wrong, you should remove the injunction and then kick it back to the fifth.

00:03:41.165 --> 00:03:41.687
Why are we not doing that?

00:03:41.687 --> 00:03:48.090
So I do think it's interesting that at the same time, you have a lot of uh, maga or I don't know.

00:03:48.090 --> 00:03:50.318
Should we call it everybody a magna or republicans.

00:03:50.318 --> 00:03:57.463
I'm not even sure where we're at in the country, because I don't think every republican is maga and I don't think every maga is a republican either.

00:03:57.463 --> 00:04:00.881
I know they're not conservatives but, they're turning around and freaking out.

00:04:00.920 --> 00:04:04.289
I'm like, should we let, oh, these women on the court?

00:04:04.289 --> 00:04:07.003
I don't trust any of these women because the three women are liberal.

00:04:07.003 --> 00:04:15.686
And then, uh, amy cohen, amy barrett cohen, or amy cohen barrett, I always think it's call me barrett I think it's call me.

00:04:16.286 --> 00:04:17.870
I am acb.

00:04:17.870 --> 00:04:20.454
Um, was it a mistake?

00:04:20.454 --> 00:04:21.601
Was it a mistake?

00:04:21.601 --> 00:04:31.391
And I'm just like you guys, like, look, that's the type of that is the type of thing that the new york times it's just like oh, we love it.

00:04:31.391 --> 00:04:34.841
All the republicans, they're eating their own.

00:04:34.841 --> 00:04:36.345
We don't even have to go after them.

00:04:36.345 --> 00:04:39.250
So I think this.

00:04:39.711 --> 00:04:45.076
But then you and I have talked about this now you have the question and greg easterbrook, we are talked about this.

00:04:45.076 --> 00:04:45.156
Now.

00:04:45.156 --> 00:04:46.882
You have the question and Greg Easterbrook will talk about this.

00:04:46.882 --> 00:04:51.605
At what point does Trump say you know what?

00:04:51.605 --> 00:05:01.425
I think you're wrong and I'm going to ignore not the Supreme Court because, remember, it's not the Supreme Court that ruled, it's the Fifth Circuit.

00:05:02.084 --> 00:05:03.119
He kicked it back down to the Fifth.

00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:04.826
They kicked it back down to the Fifth.

00:05:05.620 --> 00:05:07.524
And so that's another argument.

00:05:07.524 --> 00:05:13.821
Trump and Trump's lawyer, the White House, the administration lawyers are also saying, hey, we want, and I.

00:05:13.821 --> 00:05:19.834
This is really weird, because normally this is on what's called the shadow docket, which is not the normal stuff.

00:05:19.834 --> 00:05:23.985
It's the stuff that comes up and normally it's not something that is even argued.

00:05:23.985 --> 00:05:27.932
It's the stuff that comes up and normally it's not something that is even argued.

00:05:27.932 --> 00:05:28.733
It's a paper.

00:05:28.733 --> 00:05:30.916
Hey, because this is important, give it to us.

00:05:30.916 --> 00:05:32.600
It's the file we're going to use, the secret docket.

00:05:33.259 --> 00:05:33.440
Or not?

00:05:33.440 --> 00:05:34.684
The secret, the non-competitive docket?

00:05:34.684 --> 00:05:36.790
Yeah, we write it down, we send out our ruling and then you let it go.

00:05:36.790 --> 00:05:39.843
Like any other administration, this is not a big deal.

00:05:39.843 --> 00:05:43.728
Like they rule it, you'll get a newsflash or a beaker at the bottom and then it rocks.

00:05:44.310 --> 00:05:45.812
And there's and there's shadow docket.

00:05:45.812 --> 00:05:49.860
There's shadow docket, that's not, it's not a special thing, it's something they normally do.

00:05:49.860 --> 00:06:02.187
But this time what they did is they said well, we are going to take up the shadow docket case in terms of these injunctions, because you and I have talked about this.

00:06:02.187 --> 00:06:11.512
The Trump administration is saying should a random federal judge, at any level, it could be a.

00:06:11.512 --> 00:06:18.637
I think the example we just would commonly use is the rando federal judge in Montana.

00:06:19.076 --> 00:06:19.776
Montana.

00:06:19.776 --> 00:06:21.778
Yeah, just pick a state Right.

00:06:24.620 --> 00:06:25.581
Some tiny little, you know small population state.

00:06:25.581 --> 00:06:37.956
So somebody out of Billings Montana, the federal judge out of Billings Montana, says I am barring the United States government from doing whatever X, y, z.

00:06:37.956 --> 00:06:43.451
So the Trump administration is coming in and going hey, we think that's an abuse of power.

00:06:43.451 --> 00:06:48.851
Sure, supreme Court, we need you to really rule on this.

00:06:48.851 --> 00:06:53.011
What power does the federal bench have?

00:06:53.011 --> 00:06:55.565
Do they have this brought?

00:06:55.565 --> 00:07:03.689
Because to me and this is not a Trump, this is not a brand new thing, I've thought this now for a couple of decades.

00:07:03.689 --> 00:07:08.603
New thing I've thought this now for a couple of decades.

00:07:08.603 --> 00:07:10.992
I have thought that the judiciary has become basically too powerful.

00:07:10.992 --> 00:07:18.571
It was supposed to be the checks and balances are supposed to be here's the executive, here's the legislature, here's the judicial.

00:07:18.571 --> 00:07:26.473
Right now, I would say this I say here's the executive, here's the legislative, here's the judiciary.

00:07:26.473 --> 00:07:39.632
And, to be fair, the reason the legislature is down so low is because they suck, they're not doing their job, they're not claiming their power, they're not doing what?

00:07:40.201 --> 00:07:40.822
I'll give you that.

00:07:40.822 --> 00:07:51.173
But the judiciary branch is, I think they're doing exactly what they're meant to do, like you know, circuit judges ruling on on administration issues.

00:07:51.173 --> 00:07:52.822
Obviously it's not new Right.

00:07:52.822 --> 00:08:05.271
We had the same issue going back, as far as I can remember, even in the 90s with with the Clinton era, and those guys, the new Dixie Crats, were doing that thing.

00:08:05.271 --> 00:08:08.850
But a couple of things I noticed.

00:08:08.850 --> 00:08:18.130
The baby SCOTUSs are more moderate than even this administration would have imagined.

00:08:18.259 --> 00:08:28.375
I think if they could do a redo, they probably would put more principally aligned judges on the court.

00:08:28.375 --> 00:08:30.444
Yeah, I don't think.

00:08:30.444 --> 00:08:31.509
Yeah, I don't think.

00:08:31.509 --> 00:08:32.605
I think he's regretting.

00:08:32.605 --> 00:08:40.639
I think he's kind of not necessarily regretting, but he's kind of looking sideways at his last, especially the last two, last three.

00:08:40.639 --> 00:08:45.029
Maybe I can't remember who the third one was, but Comey, barrett and Kavanaugh.

00:08:45.029 --> 00:08:47.085
He's kind of he's like man.

00:08:47.085 --> 00:08:49.265
You know, I'm not sure I enjoyed you.

00:08:49.265 --> 00:08:50.865
I did want to play this clip.

00:08:50.865 --> 00:08:56.886
We got a couple of clips we're going to play today, so I'm going to see if I can get this queued up and then we'll go from there.

00:08:57.371 --> 00:09:08.245
But I got to work though, but in this past weekend, the actual Supreme Court used its power to stop the Trump administration from any such new deportations under the same war claims I just mentioned.

00:09:08.245 --> 00:09:16.304
Court stepped in at the 11th hour and, as I mentioned, if you follow all your alerts over the weekend, you might have heard this, but I want to put it in the full context for you.

00:09:16.304 --> 00:09:28.244
Right now, the high court blocking any more Trump deportations under that power and telling federal officials not to remove any detainees from the US a rare overnight short rule.

00:09:28.244 --> 00:09:56.200
Some interpreting this as the high court now finding that its patience is running thin, losing patience with these type of Trump ploys and actions which would, on their face, and now by quite obvious laws and limits that are established not some new tough question, but past court precedents so I can agree with him in the and I can agree with him in the past court presence.

00:09:56.721 --> 00:10:10.524
You know, I'm saying the, the, the scotus, trying to maintain continuity because again, the district judges are there to to rule and then they're, I guess, the, the case, the cases is twofold, right.

00:10:10.524 --> 00:10:23.563
So trump, the trump administration is trying to say man, how in the world can a district judge, basically a regional, you know, municipality, tell, yeah, tell the nation what they can and can't do?

00:10:23.563 --> 00:10:23.663
And?

00:10:23.663 --> 00:10:32.482
And the judges, from the judges perspective, they like it doesn't matter if I'm a city judge, if it's unconstitutional, I have the.

00:10:32.482 --> 00:10:36.554
I have not only the authority but the obligation to speak on it.

00:10:36.554 --> 00:10:38.961
So I understand it both ways.

00:10:38.961 --> 00:10:43.609
I didn't like it when they did it to Obama and the and the expansion of Obamacare.

00:10:43.609 --> 00:10:46.994
I don't like it now, but I can at least.

00:10:46.994 --> 00:10:47.495
I told you.

00:10:47.495 --> 00:11:02.245
I told you some of my most interesting points of this administration were going to be the rulings, because this administration is going to push the budding and I haven't been disappointed so far in this judicial season.

00:11:02.625 --> 00:11:14.365
It has been exactly what I thought it would be, and I continue to see the attacks on the Reconstructionist Amendment, which I knew.

00:11:14.706 --> 00:11:19.645
I mean, everyone who's been following the playbook knew that that's what that was going to be, and this is just another case of it.

00:11:19.645 --> 00:11:25.153
I think what's going to happen is the administration is going to force the issue to a point to where one of two things are going to happen.

00:11:25.153 --> 00:11:36.312
Is the administration is going to force the issue to a point to where one of two things are going to happen either scotus is going to have to make an absolute ruling or the legislator is going to have to step in and say, all right, this is the law.

00:11:36.312 --> 00:11:50.910
Um, because it's too much gray area to play around in and as long as you got that gray area, one thing this administration is absolutely, you know, proficient at is finding that gray area and swimming in it.

00:11:50.910 --> 00:11:59.121
But yeah, I want to play, because there was another ruling from the 8th district that that kind of bothered me this week, but it's in conjunction with this.

00:11:59.121 --> 00:12:01.424
I wanted to start here and then we can go into that next.

00:12:01.544 --> 00:12:04.368
So, before you do that, who was the reporter on that?

00:12:04.368 --> 00:12:07.030
Because without, or even.

00:12:07.030 --> 00:12:11.395
Was that MSNBC, or was that CNN?

00:12:12.179 --> 00:12:12.721
You had it right.

00:12:12.721 --> 00:12:15.389
The first time that was MSNBC yeah.

00:12:15.610 --> 00:12:21.812
And that's the thing when you have a reporter saying here's what the news report is.

00:12:21.812 --> 00:12:28.793
I mean, did you see what the Supreme Court did to President Trump?

00:12:28.793 --> 00:12:31.710
He made President Trump seem like a clown.

00:12:31.710 --> 00:12:34.062
Oh, look at what Scabbit did they beat.

00:12:34.062 --> 00:12:34.943
And you just go.

00:12:34.943 --> 00:12:38.412
First of all, that's not what the ruling said.

00:12:38.412 --> 00:12:44.894
The ruling said we are not removing what the circuit court said.

00:12:44.894 --> 00:12:49.703
We are not removing what the circuit court said.

00:12:49.703 --> 00:12:51.548
We are going to kick it back to the circuit court and leave the injunction in place.

00:12:51.548 --> 00:13:00.765
Yeah, and that's that's where the bias of journalism and msnbc and, trust me, I'm sure, well, not sure.

00:13:00.765 --> 00:13:10.620
I assume that the way Fox News said it was, you know, supreme Court did not do what President Trump and they all know should have.

00:13:11.261 --> 00:13:18.347
They labeled it as an attack on the administration, which is interesting and I'm like yeah of course that's yeah.

00:13:19.701 --> 00:13:20.385
Now you say I like that.

00:13:20.385 --> 00:13:21.863
Of course that's what they do.

00:13:22.004 --> 00:13:31.551
So, to me that's why it's so important to me is to go in and actually have that analysis, your own analysis.

00:13:31.551 --> 00:13:34.140
Now, is it possible for us to go in, like you and I?

00:13:34.140 --> 00:13:45.921
We could probably do an entire show, we could probably pull up the ruling and we could probably go through the ruling and we'd probably be wrong on about 80 of what it said, because neither of us are lawyers.

00:13:45.921 --> 00:14:07.149
But, that said, there are parts of any scotus ruling like if you read the first page, page and a half, it's like a synopsis of any research and you kind of go here's what it is, here's what they say, and then you jump to the very end and says here's what that means as far as what's going to happen.

00:14:07.149 --> 00:14:09.014
So here's what we think, here's why.

00:14:09.014 --> 00:14:17.205
And then at the very bottom goes so we're kicking it back to the fifth so that they need to define what this really means I like, I like the, the, I like the.

00:14:18.307 --> 00:14:23.042
It was a 7-2 ruling, but alito and and thomas kind of surprised me.

00:14:23.042 --> 00:14:24.566
They didn't say no, they.

00:14:24.566 --> 00:14:27.072
But they didn't say I agree with you at the same time.

00:14:27.072 --> 00:14:37.043
Essentially what their objection was was like hey, are we sure we want to leave the injunction in place while the district figures it out?

00:14:37.043 --> 00:14:40.403
Right, he's like you know.

00:14:40.403 --> 00:14:44.365
And then Thomas is, and I told you he walks that fine line.

00:14:44.365 --> 00:14:46.630
I can't stand that dude, he gets on my nerves, man.

00:14:46.630 --> 00:14:48.823
He walks that fine line, just like.

00:14:48.823 --> 00:14:50.125
So he's like.

00:14:50.125 --> 00:14:54.813
His whole summary was like hey, I think I agree with you.

00:14:54.813 --> 00:15:05.946
However, if we're not going to take it up fully, then we should lift the injunction and let the district figure it out, and if they want to kick it up to us, then we'll explore it all the way through.

00:15:08.208 --> 00:15:10.232
And that's exactly what Liberty is saying.

00:15:10.232 --> 00:15:10.854
There is.

00:15:10.854 --> 00:15:13.525
You know, liberty, I think you're right on.

00:15:13.626 --> 00:15:19.144
If the Supreme Court doesn't take up the case, it sometimes means it's just not to that level.

00:15:19.144 --> 00:15:29.754
And that was one of those things a few weeks ago that the Supreme Court took up and said OK, we're going to, we're going to have the emergency injunction and we're going to say no deportations.

00:15:29.754 --> 00:15:33.390
Even though SCOTUS and Alito both came back and said what are you doing?

00:15:33.390 --> 00:15:50.700
We're not even following our own rules and we're putting an injunction in place without it being vetted, without it going through the initial stages or the appeals court, through the initial stages or the appeals court Now.

00:15:50.700 --> 00:15:54.110
So somebody now can just file with the Supreme Court and bypass every all the other levels of of the court which are supposed to be there.

00:15:54.110 --> 00:15:54.912
And so the argument.

00:15:54.912 --> 00:16:11.168
And I think that I think it would have been interesting if Alito and Thomas had basically made the point and said OK, well, if you guys are going to rule at 7-2 that we should have this injunction in place without all this other stuff, then I guess we're just in charge of everything.

00:16:11.168 --> 00:16:13.386
What's the next traffic ticket?

00:16:14.802 --> 00:16:17.147
I would have made that you know to be absurd.

00:16:17.147 --> 00:16:23.750
You reducto ad absurdum and you make it to the most ridiculous point and the Supreme Court going.

00:16:23.750 --> 00:16:35.734
So if we're going to bypass all this other stuff, if chaplain o'neill gets a jaywalking ticket and he files for relief with the sir, with the supreme court, should we take that up?

00:16:35.734 --> 00:16:39.140
Why not, I mean, if we're just going to jump over everybody else?

00:16:39.140 --> 00:17:01.817
So I think scotus scotus in a lot of ways are being viewed as both savior and stopgap and facilitator, and waterfall depending on what side you're on and what the ruling is.

00:17:02.341 --> 00:17:05.875
I mean, it was the DOJ that fast-tracked it.

00:17:08.464 --> 00:17:18.643
Well, but the thing is it doesn't matter, right, it doesn't matter who it is, it doesn't matter if it's the Trump administration saying, hey, we need an emergency ruling, the Supreme Court's going.

00:17:18.643 --> 00:17:28.569
So this is where, again, I kind of look at the justices and I like that Alito and Thomas are saying hey.

00:17:28.569 --> 00:17:33.756
I think Alito and Thomas are trying to say this is the strike zone.

00:17:33.756 --> 00:17:36.226
It's either a ball or it's a strike.

00:17:36.226 --> 00:17:38.583
This is the zone and the other ones are going.

00:17:39.064 --> 00:17:41.550
well, I mean sometimes you'll give a corner over here.

00:17:41.960 --> 00:17:42.501
Well, that one.

00:17:42.501 --> 00:17:45.431
Are we talking about the middle of the knee or is it the bottom of the knee for a strike?

00:17:45.431 --> 00:17:48.730
Well, it was a check swing, so I think it was a strike.

00:17:48.730 --> 00:17:50.324
Well, you know.

00:17:50.324 --> 00:17:56.188
So I think Alito and Thomas are very much like this is the strike zone.

00:17:56.188 --> 00:18:00.270
We don't call anything out of the strike zone period.

00:18:02.701 --> 00:18:03.845
For better or for worse.

00:18:03.845 --> 00:18:08.208
You know how I feel about those two and they are they're ruling exactly how I thought they would.

00:18:08.208 --> 00:18:09.872
So it's just kind of like it's one of those things.

00:18:09.872 --> 00:18:17.773
I am more, I guess, impressed with the baby scotuses than I thought they would be.

00:18:17.773 --> 00:18:24.946
I did not expect them to put up as much resistance, even with with Kentucky Brown Jackson, up as much resistance Even with Kentucky Brown Jackson.

00:18:24.946 --> 00:18:27.510
Resistance to what?

00:18:27.510 --> 00:18:31.105
Resistance to the administration's advances.

00:18:31.105 --> 00:18:37.967
Let's face it, alito and Thomas bullied the last session Last year.

00:18:37.967 --> 00:18:41.189
Alito and Thomas bullied the SCOTUS session.

00:18:41.189 --> 00:18:49.669
I don't even know why they even sent up stuff to the SCOTUS because in my opinion it wasn't a fair ruling.

00:18:49.669 --> 00:18:50.832
It wasn't.

00:18:50.832 --> 00:18:52.016
It wasn't a fair SCOTUS decision.

00:18:53.521 --> 00:18:56.828
I think on a couple of this was the Biden's administration.

00:18:56.828 --> 00:19:00.806
Biden was trying to get I can't remember off the top of my head.

00:19:00.806 --> 00:19:08.962
It was a couple of them where I was like SCOTUS and Alito are going to push it back.

00:19:08.962 --> 00:19:10.267
Um, I think, well, a big one, the presidential immunity.

00:19:10.267 --> 00:19:11.069
I know that was a huge.

00:19:11.069 --> 00:19:11.451
That one did not.

00:19:11.451 --> 00:19:18.930
That one was pushed through and I I mean, I get it, you know, you get the my, you get the majority, you get the opinion, I get it, you know, but it just I.

00:19:18.930 --> 00:19:30.575
I am pleasantly surprised to see the baby justices kind of finding their own path, which is which is you know what you would want from a bench.

00:19:30.575 --> 00:19:32.704
You don't want everybody to be lockstep.

00:19:33.446 --> 00:19:35.332
Oh, oh sure, and I'll agree with you.

00:19:35.332 --> 00:19:39.832
I think that they are the justices.

00:19:39.832 --> 00:19:44.231
I don't care if it's Alito and Thomas or if it's Sotomayor and whoever.

00:19:44.231 --> 00:19:51.064
I want them to look at a case.

00:19:51.064 --> 00:20:08.583
Look at what the Constitution says, debate it behind closed doors, write an opinion that a layman can read and go oh okay, this is why that a layman can read and go oh okay, this is why.

00:20:08.583 --> 00:20:16.444
And then the other side, if they are so inclined to say now we think you're wrong, because that's, that's how it's supposed to work, I I don't have any problem, like the presidential immunity one.

00:20:16.444 --> 00:20:17.748
I looked at that.

00:20:17.748 --> 00:20:22.467
I thought it was so funny when the democrats were freaking out about it, because I was like.

00:20:23.368 --> 00:20:41.843
So your argument is that because of presidential immunity and remember what it said was that the president in, in acting in an official capacity, could not be held to criminal standards Right, Basically, that's what it was.

00:20:41.843 --> 00:20:43.548
Sure they were freaking out.

00:20:43.548 --> 00:20:51.287
Well, that means Trump could go in and just assassinate, and I'm sitting there going, you guys, Biden's still the president.

00:20:51.287 --> 00:20:57.988
If that's where you're going with it and you're so worried about Trump, why doesn't Biden just assassinate?

00:20:57.988 --> 00:21:00.362
Oh wait, no, oh wait.

00:21:00.362 --> 00:21:01.346
Assassinate Trump.

00:21:02.421 --> 00:21:05.611
Oh, I think the piece is I think we didn't have time.

00:21:05.611 --> 00:21:09.182
I think Biden was the one who Biden.

00:21:09.261 --> 00:21:11.049
Biden was on vacation for like the last one.

00:21:11.049 --> 00:21:12.744
All right, so let's get back to the second part.

00:21:12.765 --> 00:21:17.686
You know where he was though he was, he was, he was on the grassy knoll, he was the one who was telling the sniper.

00:21:17.740 --> 00:21:19.580
His body was there, but nobody was behind the wheel.

00:21:19.580 --> 00:21:20.942
All right, all right, here we go.

00:21:20.942 --> 00:21:25.483
So I'm going to play this real quick and we're going to talk about it here we go AURN News.

00:21:25.904 --> 00:21:26.944
I'm Ebony McMorris.

00:21:26.944 --> 00:21:35.009
A major blow to the Voting Rights Act just landed, this time courtesy of a federal appeals panel affecting seven states across the Midwest.

00:21:35.009 --> 00:21:50.218
In a controversial two to one decision, judges from the Eighth Circuit Court ruled private citizens can no longer bring lawsuits to enforce Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, a cornerstone of civil rights litigation against racial discrimination at the polls.

00:21:50.218 --> 00:21:57.250
Now, historically, these private lawsuits accounted for hundreds of critical voting rights victories.

00:21:57.250 --> 00:22:05.211
The latest ruling comes from a case involving North Dakota's Native American voters whose representation has vanished from the state Senate after gop-led redistricting.

00:22:05.211 --> 00:22:11.371
Advocates argue the new line systematically diluted native voting strength, the chief dissenting.

00:22:11.371 --> 00:22:16.576
With the trump administration pulling back justice department enforcement efforts, questions loom.

00:22:16.576 --> 00:22:21.086
Who exactly will safeguard voters now for aurnewscom?

00:22:21.086 --> 00:22:22.248
I'm ebony McMorris.

00:22:24.230 --> 00:22:26.674
So a little bit of backstory on this case.

00:22:26.674 --> 00:22:33.373
The Native Americans in North Dakota was like hey, this gerrymandering has gotten out of control.

00:22:33.373 --> 00:22:39.848
They picked them, picked them and cut up the districts to where we literally have no representation.

00:22:39.848 --> 00:22:56.045
No, say so, no matter how we vote, it's going to be, you know, it's going to be a representation against our I guess, against our beliefs, our values, right, no different than everything that's happening in other states.

00:22:56.045 --> 00:23:06.433
Like we've had the discussion before about what's going on in Georgia and the redistricting, I think this case is going to go into the Supreme Court.

00:23:06.433 --> 00:23:16.194
It has to because that ruling affected the seven or eight states in the eighth district.

00:23:16.194 --> 00:23:24.163
They got another one coming out of the fifth district in the South that's coming up SCOTUS is.

00:23:24.163 --> 00:23:25.247
They're going to be busy man.

00:23:25.247 --> 00:23:27.203
They have a limited document.

00:23:27.203 --> 00:23:34.070
They're going to be some busy, busy individuals because that voting thing is going to be.

00:23:34.111 --> 00:23:34.392
What's your?

00:23:34.412 --> 00:23:34.834
thought man.

00:23:35.861 --> 00:23:39.346
First, there's no such thing as a limit to the Supreme Court.

00:23:39.346 --> 00:23:41.948
They can take up any case they want.

00:23:43.101 --> 00:23:45.265
It's not like they say hey, we're only going to take 15 cases, case they want, right.

00:23:45.265 --> 00:23:45.332
It's not like we can.

00:23:45.332 --> 00:23:47.115
We're only going to take 15 cases.

00:23:47.115 --> 00:23:50.381
If they want to take one hundred and fifty or fifteen hundred, they can.

00:23:50.381 --> 00:24:09.050
But as as far as I look at it like this, if anybody thinks gerrymandering is a Republican, republican thing and nobody else does it, go look at what Chicago looks like, go look at what Illinois.

00:24:09.050 --> 00:24:13.030
The Democrats do it just as much as the Republicans do, right?

00:24:13.030 --> 00:24:29.589
I think the interesting thing about that, what the state said, or what the news report said, was that individual voters can no longer individual right Voters can no longer bring up the lawsuit.

00:24:29.589 --> 00:24:39.174
I'm curious how that would work, because I think that that's where the unconstitutionality comes in.

00:24:41.321 --> 00:24:41.962
Yeah, it can be.

00:24:41.962 --> 00:24:50.194
So they were talking about Section two of the 14th Amendment where you had a right to if anything was like.

00:24:50.194 --> 00:24:56.413
So if I feel like my voting rights were being discriminated against, I don't have to go through anybody else.

00:24:56.413 --> 00:24:58.383
I can file a case on behalf of me.

00:24:58.383 --> 00:25:02.628
And the courts have to hear Now they're saying you have to go through the DOJ of the state.

00:25:02.648 --> 00:25:15.607
Now they're saying you have to go through the DOJ of the state and then the state has to approve it before you can even file a case, which I think at that point SCOTUS is going to say no, no, no, we can't do that.

00:25:15.607 --> 00:25:16.913
And they got I mean they got a pretty, pretty valid point.

00:25:16.913 --> 00:25:45.696
But I mean in terms of gerrymandering, unless you're doing a complete reform of government, you're not, you're not gonna stop it right, because every I mean these are 10, 15 year plans you know to to census reports and and adjusting, it's just, it's too much murky to direct it, I think so the way utah is broken up is basically salt lake city does not have its own um right.

00:25:45.717 --> 00:25:48.766
Salt Lake is broken up into parts of the other four districts.

00:25:48.766 --> 00:25:52.943
One of the reasons that is is because Salt Lake is turning into Austin.

00:25:52.943 --> 00:25:56.882
It's turning into a little blue dot in the middle of a red seat.

00:25:57.525 --> 00:25:58.348
And the Republicans.

00:25:58.348 --> 00:26:00.156
It's still dominated by Republicans.

00:26:00.156 --> 00:26:02.303
I think it's something like 70-30, right?

00:26:02.303 --> 00:26:20.953
So if you're a Republican and you're seeing that people in Salt Lake City are coming out and not just voting Democrat but pretty far left, I would argue Salt Lake City is legitimately going cuckoo as far as lefty, like Berkeley style.

00:26:20.953 --> 00:26:29.220
The last time I went there I saw more pride flags than I've seen than I saw when I was in San Francisco.

00:26:29.220 --> 00:26:33.211
Right now, virtual signaling comes into play and all that stuff.

00:26:33.299 --> 00:27:06.977
But if I'm a Republican or I'm running the Republican state or I'm whoever, I'm going, why in the world do I want to change the districting to make it quote unquote more fair and potentially lose seats in Congress to my rival party, when I know that California does it to make sure that the people in Orange County or in Fresno or the people in Oregon who do it for Portland and the east side of the state against the west side of the state or Washington?

00:27:07.560 --> 00:27:08.843
You know it happens.

00:27:08.843 --> 00:27:13.759
And so if I'm in Utah, I'm not going to bend over backwards or even lose any sleep If.

00:27:13.759 --> 00:27:18.840
If I can keep all four seats as a Republican, keep them red, why wouldn't I?

00:27:18.840 --> 00:27:26.553
Because I know the same thing is happening in every other state, just depending on you know where they lean.

00:27:26.553 --> 00:27:31.609
We've seen a movement in eastern oregon.

00:27:31.609 --> 00:27:33.915
They, eastern oregon, wants to break away.

00:27:33.915 --> 00:27:40.499
Eastern oregon, eastern washington and parts of northern california want to break away from the rest of those states.

00:27:40.499 --> 00:27:49.347
Because the same argument they're saying it doesn't matter if I go in, how I go in to vote, if I live in oregon, it's whatever.

00:27:49.488 --> 00:27:52.472
Portland, yeah, it's gonna be blue, it's gonna be so.

00:27:52.614 --> 00:27:54.301
So where's my representation?

00:27:54.301 --> 00:27:58.790
And so do I think it's gonna go anywhere, I don't know.

00:27:58.790 --> 00:28:01.564
I again, the question to me is how that was worded.

00:28:01.564 --> 00:28:05.317
Was that an individual citizen doesn't have the right to bring it.

00:28:05.317 --> 00:28:12.953
Okay, my guess is, supreme courts, if it, if it goes to scotus, they're gonna say, then what's the relief?

00:28:12.953 --> 00:28:43.227
Because if an individual or here's the other part of it if the legislature does its job and says an individual, absolutely, you know, we're going to pass the law that says any individual can make that challenge or, uh, basically turn it into some part of a class action, whatever the limit is, you know, whatever the number, you have to have x number of people that are signed on to the lawsuit to make it valid, and then it has to be heard.

00:28:43.607 --> 00:28:44.829
I'm sure there's relief.

00:28:44.829 --> 00:28:55.285
But this is part of the problem is at what point we can sit here and say, well, scotus, or whatever, but two to one, is it going to be?

00:28:55.285 --> 00:28:58.932
Is SCOTUS going to take it up and be 5-4?

00:28:58.932 --> 00:29:01.228
Is it going to be 9-0?

00:29:01.228 --> 00:29:28.520
I mean, this is one of those that they could also turn around and say, while we are not striking down the ruling itself, we are striking down the very narrow part of it that says because my guess is, the ruling is much broader than just that one little yes, I mean.

00:29:28.540 --> 00:29:30.887
So the focus, yeah, the focus on that one part on, on the constitutionality of it.

00:29:30.887 --> 00:29:49.323
But the ruling, the ruling basically says all right, cool, hey man, if you want to do this or whatever, if you want to, if you want to challenge our, our redistrict, redistricting, you have to present your case before the doj, and the DOJ has to go basically present it on your behalf.

00:29:49.323 --> 00:29:55.888
You can't just go in your home, which is, and that, that, I think, is where they are going to fail.

00:29:56.651 --> 00:30:00.182
I'll tell you right now I'm against that because it's another level of bureaucracy.

00:30:00.182 --> 00:30:01.744
I'm against bureaucracy.

00:30:01.744 --> 00:30:06.933
I think one of the death knells of this country is the red tape that's involved in everything.

00:30:06.933 --> 00:30:13.153
Look, I think that, if you can convince, but I also think there's a way to fix a lot of this stuff right.

00:30:13.153 --> 00:30:23.153
So I think Congress should pass a law that says and I don't know what, maybe they do it, maybe they already have this.

00:30:23.153 --> 00:30:26.759
And I don't know what, maybe they do it, maybe they already have this.

00:30:26.759 --> 00:30:38.750
But if you file a frivolous lawsuit and whatever judge hears it says this is absolutely frivolous, you can be fined.

00:30:38.750 --> 00:30:39.111
Something fair.

00:30:39.111 --> 00:30:46.810
I mean, I don't care if it's $500 or $1,000 or you know, or a big for a big law firm, you know, if you take this up, because we both know there are law firms that you know ambulance chasers that go in.

00:30:47.511 --> 00:30:48.134
Yeah, sure.

00:30:50.462 --> 00:30:59.788
Because part of the problem is especially lawyers and accidents, one of the reasons that you have so many of these billboards.

00:30:59.788 --> 00:31:08.573
Okay, so I'm driving along, somebody in front of me cuts me off and I and I hit the back of their car.

00:31:08.573 --> 00:31:13.025
Okay, well, I rear-ended them, even though they cut in front of me.

00:31:13.025 --> 00:31:15.250
I even have it on camera, right.

00:31:15.250 --> 00:31:20.528
But I slam it and they sue me and they're oh, I've got a neck injury, back injury, da-da-da-da.

00:31:21.099 --> 00:31:32.990
My insurance company is going to look at that and they're going to say my insurance company is going to look at that and they're going to say they're suing you for $15,000 for loss of work, for their car and for their injury.

00:31:32.990 --> 00:31:42.257
If we go to court, it's going to cost us $20,000 to $30,000 just for a summary judgment, which is going to the judge and say judge, please throw this out.

00:31:42.257 --> 00:31:46.484
I don't know why it costs that much, but it does right.

00:31:46.484 --> 00:31:47.730
So the insurance company is going to turn around and go.

00:31:47.730 --> 00:31:48.152
You know what?

00:31:48.152 --> 00:31:50.599
We'll just pay $15,000.

00:31:50.599 --> 00:31:51.865
It's easier to do that.

00:31:51.865 --> 00:32:02.448
When I worked in insurance many moons ago, we insured high-risk places like taxis in New York and Philadelphia, things like that, right.

00:32:02.448 --> 00:32:04.606
So we would have this happen.

00:32:04.606 --> 00:32:08.951
One of our insured taxi cabs rear-ended a bus in Philadelphia.

00:32:08.951 --> 00:32:13.450
Do you know how many people were on the bus when it got hit?

00:32:13.450 --> 00:32:16.148
About three, maybe four, I think they counted.

00:32:16.148 --> 00:32:17.790
You know how many people filed?

00:32:17.790 --> 00:32:20.429
You know how many people filed insurance claims?

00:32:21.031 --> 00:32:21.976
How many Like 60.

00:32:22.397 --> 00:32:22.920
It was like 60.

00:32:22.920 --> 00:32:25.008
Like when it hit.

00:32:25.008 --> 00:32:34.605
People jumped on their cameras, people jumped onto the bus and it's oh, wait for the police.

00:32:35.721 --> 00:32:37.165
That's a free check, yeah, man.

00:32:38.249 --> 00:32:41.507
Yeah, and that's again.

00:32:41.507 --> 00:32:55.050
I would love to see a law that says, basically, if there's a frivolous lawsuit that you could be Liberty, I won't say I don't know if they're Dems or Republican.

00:32:55.050 --> 00:33:03.134
I will say this is in downtown Philadelphia, so from what we saw on the camera, it was a blue district.

00:33:03.134 --> 00:33:05.000
From what we saw on the camera, it was a blue district.

00:33:05.000 --> 00:33:09.046
Yeah, it was Well, come on Liberty.

00:33:09.046 --> 00:33:10.147
We're being racial here.

00:33:10.228 --> 00:33:21.335
They looked more like KJ than me, but I will also say this there were some people that looked like me that jumped on the bus too.

00:33:21.375 --> 00:33:24.323
It's not, that is more socioeconomic than it is.

00:33:24.323 --> 00:33:28.526
Yeah, I haven't seen anybody turn down a free check opportunity Black, white, purple or green.

00:33:28.526 --> 00:33:31.208
All right, Are you ready, sir?

00:33:31.208 --> 00:33:32.101
Here we go.

00:33:32.101 --> 00:33:35.471
And for my next trick, Medicaid.

00:33:35.471 --> 00:33:40.980
Listen so for months and months and months, and even before the election cycle.

00:33:40.980 --> 00:33:44.210
Right, the Republicans staunching like we talked about it.

00:33:44.210 --> 00:33:47.423
We talked about.

00:33:47.423 --> 00:33:49.450
No, I hate, just I hate, man.

00:33:49.450 --> 00:33:51.740
Listen you about to get me on a completely different brand.

00:33:52.481 --> 00:33:56.638
Go read the last one, go watch the last episode yeah, past episodes about your Thomas.

00:33:56.720 --> 00:34:14.275
So the big beautiful bill is struggling because more and more information are coming out about the cuts to Medicaid, because more and more information are coming out about the cuts to Medicaid, which we now know is going to affect predominantly red districts more than it's going to affect blue districts.

00:34:14.275 --> 00:34:21.414
So you're starting to see a lot more Republican opposition to the bill.

00:34:21.414 --> 00:34:29.280
Yeah, mostly because one, there's a lot of spending that they weren't anticipating.

00:34:29.280 --> 00:34:39.630
Um, a lot of, yeah, I think spending was going up four to six trillion dollars at the last report, which, you know, traditional conservatives are like no, no, no, we don't.

00:34:39.630 --> 00:34:44.106
You got to cut that out, we can't, we can't it wasn't four to trillion annually, wasn't it?

00:34:44.146 --> 00:34:45.829
No, not annually Over the budget.

00:34:45.849 --> 00:34:48.724
I think it's 10 years, they said.

00:34:48.724 --> 00:34:55.851
And then the cuts to Medicaid were just too massive.

00:34:55.851 --> 00:35:09.422
I can't remember the Republican representative's name, but he went on a media tour to basically talk about how this bill isn't in the interest of you know the people.

00:35:09.422 --> 00:35:13.590
And I guess my question is did they just now read the bill?

00:35:13.590 --> 00:35:19.349
So there was a report came out where a lot of Republicans are like oh well, we didn't.

00:35:19.349 --> 00:35:27.280
You know, when we first read the bill, we didn't know it was going to be this much spending added to the bill and we didn't know the cuts were going to be this expansive.

00:35:27.280 --> 00:35:39.327
So, as reporters on both sides conservative outlets and liberal outlets are starting to ask representatives All right, so bottom line, we see the bill, we see the cuts.

00:35:39.829 --> 00:35:40.612
Are you voting for us?

00:35:40.612 --> 00:35:46.012
Yes, no, you're starting to see more representatives kind of come out of like you know what we're going to have to renegotiate it.

00:35:46.012 --> 00:35:49.025
I think it failed once or twice last week.

00:35:49.025 --> 00:35:52.405
They have a vote tonight or a meeting tonight.

00:35:52.405 --> 00:35:59.244
The House representative leader is having a meeting with everyone tonight to hash this thing through.

00:35:59.244 --> 00:36:00.688
What are your thoughts, man?

00:36:00.688 --> 00:36:07.110
That Medicaid is a hard pill to swallow, but they can't find the money anywhere else.

00:36:13.079 --> 00:36:32.110
I think that part of the problem with the federal government is nobody wants to cut anything, because then they are going to lose the next election.

00:36:32.110 --> 00:36:36.929
Well, yeah, it doesn't matter if it makes sense or not.

00:36:36.929 --> 00:36:41.601
Broadways and abuse oh, we can't have Doge, we can't.

00:36:41.601 --> 00:36:44.480
Doge is ruining the federal workforce.

00:36:44.480 --> 00:36:52.670
And we can't cut the federal workforce by 15%, because then it will make the irs unable to do the audits that it's supposed to do.

00:36:52.670 --> 00:37:01.735
And then, well, we can't adjust social security because, well, that's what people have paid into and so they deserve that money.

00:37:01.735 --> 00:37:07.230
And so if you start people messing with people's social security, well, and you can and you can't

00:37:07.269 --> 00:37:22.608
mess with the Fed because, well, you know the Federal Reserve, it's an independent thing and so if you actually go in and try to audit the Fed, well, that's beyond the purview of the federal government because, realistically, the Fed is not a federal agency.

00:37:22.608 --> 00:37:25.884
So if you want to go in and do that, sorry, the Fed's not going to open it.

00:37:25.884 --> 00:37:41.460
So it's always something right, and it used to be that an increase in the federal deficit was seen as a bad thing.

00:37:41.460 --> 00:38:08.960
When the Reagan numbers went up so Jimmy Carter, and the high levels of inflation during the 70s, late 70s, and the gas, the economic issues with gas, with OPEC, all that stuff, that was a big deal Reagan came along and said, ok, basically, we need to fix this, the spending is going to go up, we're going to outspend because we need to have, you know, the military needs to be strong because of the Cold War, the Berlin Wall fell and then.

00:38:08.960 --> 00:38:13.052
But again, once the spending goes up, it never goes down.

00:38:13.052 --> 00:38:22.347
So even when the federal budget was balanced under Clinton, it was like, well, yeah, it was balanced because of all the internet.

00:38:22.367 --> 00:38:32.411
Boom, I remember there was one I'm trying to remember what it was called but there was a dot com that had a website and that was it.

00:38:32.411 --> 00:38:40.753
And it was like Coop, like Coopcom, something like that, and it was trading on the New York Stock Exchange for $4 a share.

00:38:40.753 --> 00:38:48.653
Jesus, coopcom made nothing, had nothing, traded nothing, manufactured nothing, provided nothing.

00:38:48.653 --> 00:38:53.612
It was literally a website with a name on it and that was it.

00:38:53.612 --> 00:38:57.331
And they listed and it was worthless.

00:38:58.079 --> 00:39:00.309
So then the bubble popped.

00:39:00.309 --> 00:39:16.188
So now it goes back down until it gets bad enough that we take it seriously that the federal deficit actually matters.

00:39:16.188 --> 00:39:18.666
It doesn't even matter.

00:39:18.666 --> 00:39:50.996
It might have been Greg Easterbrook and again, I know friend of the show, greg Easterbrook, I think it was his article he wrote and he said basically, if, if, this is if if we're in a situation with a fiat, fiat monetary system, that it doesn't matter if the United States is three trillion in debt, thirty five trillion in debt or three hundred trillion in debt, because literally it's just a number and it doesn't matter.

00:39:50.996 --> 00:39:58.233
So I'm of the opinion that it must not matter.

00:40:01.784 --> 00:40:04.371
Moody's did downgrade the credit rating.

00:40:04.371 --> 00:40:06.184
So I mean there's that credit rating.

00:40:06.565 --> 00:40:18.465
It went from AAA to AA1, which basically means it's slightly, tiny bit more difficult for the United States government to borrow money.

00:40:18.465 --> 00:40:19.681
You know what that also means?

00:40:19.681 --> 00:40:24.786
Nothing, because the United States, if it wants to borrow money, it will.

00:40:24.786 --> 00:40:27.262
Again from the federal bank.

00:40:28.905 --> 00:40:32.972
Do you think the European banks are going to be like well, we better not lend money.

00:40:32.972 --> 00:40:35.644
It's ridiculous, it's all silliness.

00:40:35.644 --> 00:40:55.648
So, unless you're going to make real cuts and you're going to go through austerity which I believe is going to happen, maybe in my lifetime, maybe near the end of my lifetime the United States is going to go through a Greece level early 2000s of austerity.

00:40:55.648 --> 00:41:03.490
Austerity is when you have to tighten the belt and you have to say we have to cut back or we're going to literally default.

00:41:03.490 --> 00:41:07.257
I think that is when, to me, if you're going to have a second civil war, that's where it's going to come from.

00:41:07.257 --> 00:41:09.644
If you're going to have a second civil war, that's where it's going to come from.

00:41:09.644 --> 00:41:16.583
You're going to see people on social security, on Medicare, on food stamps, on all these things.

00:41:16.583 --> 00:41:32.246
The people that are really look at the federal government as not as a safety net, but as a primary provider, primary provider.

00:41:32.599 --> 00:41:46.753
If you're going to cut back my food stamps from $1,000 every month to $700 a month, f that I'm going to just go in and break the windows and steal what I got to steal and do what I got to do.

00:41:46.753 --> 00:41:56.025
That's where I think it's going to happen and at that point what comes of it, I don't know.

00:41:56.025 --> 00:42:03.670
I think that's where the real threat of it I don't want to say an economic collapse Cause I don't.

00:42:03.670 --> 00:42:27.251
I don't think that's what will happen, but I do think that it's going to make the BLM riots look fairly dangerous, like Amherst Owl, yeah, and I think that, while it still will be mostly urban and the reason I say mostly urban is just because of the concentration of people.

00:42:27.280 --> 00:42:33.931
And the reason I say mostly urban is just because of the concentration of people Because, like, realistically, if you're on full stamps and you live out in Jasper, alabama, what are you going to do?

00:42:33.931 --> 00:42:37.851
Are you going to go burn down like the farmhouse next door?

00:42:37.851 --> 00:42:39.606
And I love Jasper, but there's not.

00:42:40.304 --> 00:42:42.778
No, those are potential.

00:42:42.778 --> 00:42:51.699
I mean, in urban areas you have small pockets of food deserts, right, and that's usually in the you know, underprivileged areas.

00:42:51.699 --> 00:43:00.311
But in the rural areas you have huge you know huge food deserts, so it would affect them quite a whole.

00:43:00.311 --> 00:43:10.838
So you couple that food and here's why I think the Republicans or the red team is in a bind, why I think the Republicans or the red team is in a bind.

00:43:10.838 --> 00:43:26.425
Right, the POTUS has said he's not averse to taxing, you know, making, you know hiring, the tech level for those who are more well-off, yeah, which is staunchly averse to what the guys in Congress want to do right, because they don't want to piss off this fund.

00:43:26.445 --> 00:43:27.307
Yeah, and then on the GOP.

00:43:27.527 --> 00:43:27.809
Yeah.

00:43:27.809 --> 00:43:34.780
And then, on the lower end, you have the actual people who vote for him and saying well, you got to find the money somewhere.

00:43:34.780 --> 00:43:37.686
If you're going to pass this bill, you got to find the money somewhere.

00:43:37.686 --> 00:43:48.521
And if you're not going to raise more money through taxes and you're promising you know, you're promising to eradicate overtime taxes and all these other taxes, that money's got to come from somewhere.

00:43:48.521 --> 00:43:51.146
And you know, yeah.

00:43:51.146 --> 00:44:07.192
And when you start talking about cutting and that's why I say I love, I love Americans but we are, as a society, we are ignorant to the facts of the matter, right, because everybody was down for cuts until you realize the services that are being cut.

00:44:07.192 --> 00:44:08.523
You know what I mean.

00:44:08.523 --> 00:44:12.159
So everybody was like yeah, yeah, cut Medicaid, cut Medicaid, cut Medicaid.

00:44:12.159 --> 00:44:21.451
Then they realized that, you know, somewhere between 60 and 65 percent of their constituents are on Medicaid, and then they're like all right, well, hold on, maybe we acted too hastily.

00:44:22.480 --> 00:44:28.311
So I'd be curious what district has 60 to 65% of people on Medicaid?

00:44:28.972 --> 00:44:29.454
On Medicaid.

00:44:32.530 --> 00:44:45.853
I mean that is a huge number that would have to be backwater West Virginia Appalachian that has had no coal or manufacturing happening in the last 20 years.

00:44:45.853 --> 00:44:46.855
I can't imagine that.

00:44:47.715 --> 00:44:53.708
All right, I mean, that's a huge number that is that is a big number, but I'm gonna pull it up and we'll see.

00:44:53.708 --> 00:44:56.402
See the times got realistically.

00:44:56.802 --> 00:45:01.637
Well, think about it like even 10 let's say it's 10, 10 percent of.

00:45:01.657 --> 00:45:10.894
I mean that's a big yeah that's pretty, pretty significant too, though, right, right, yeah, I mean 10% of your voting population is going to be put off by what you're doing.

00:45:11.699 --> 00:45:16.550
Well, I mean, if you're looking at any district in America, 10% swing.

00:45:16.550 --> 00:45:28.871
If you go from a 60-40, excuse me, let's say 60-40 in Cook County for Blue Team, right and for whatever reason, the Dems do something that pisses off 10 to switch.

00:45:28.871 --> 00:45:35.297
Well, now you're 50 50, so 10 of the of of the voting population.

00:45:35.297 --> 00:45:42.572
Remember, people have to actually vote and if you go and screw somebody over, what they think is screwing over and that's why.

00:45:42.572 --> 00:45:46.085
But again, that's also why the media covers it the way it does now.

00:45:46.507 --> 00:45:47.568
Let me get this for you.

00:45:47.568 --> 00:45:48.449
See if I can get that.

00:45:48.449 --> 00:45:50.514
I don't know if you can see that, can you see?

00:45:50.534 --> 00:45:53.989
that States with the most Medicaid recipients.

00:45:53.989 --> 00:45:59.786
So from looking at that without being able to see it perfectly well, new Mexico.

00:45:59.887 --> 00:46:00.268
Yeah.

00:46:01.148 --> 00:46:01.688
New Mexico.

00:46:01.708 --> 00:46:02.590
West Virginia, kentucky.

00:46:02.590 --> 00:46:03.791
So you got what do you got?

00:46:03.791 --> 00:46:09.559
33, 33 and a Kentucky.

00:46:09.559 --> 00:46:09.786
So you got, what do you got?

00:46:09.786 --> 00:46:10.353
33, 33 and a half.

00:46:10.353 --> 00:46:16.509
So I was yeah, I was off, so 33 and a half is yeah, I had it, but still even okay.

00:46:16.579 --> 00:46:18.146
So that's actually kind of amazing.

00:46:18.146 --> 00:46:21.289
A third of New Mexico is on Medicaid.

00:46:21.289 --> 00:46:24.088
I mean that's, that's crazy.

00:46:24.088 --> 00:46:27.585
A third of the entire state needs assistance.

00:46:27.585 --> 00:46:27.885
That's crazy.

00:46:27.885 --> 00:46:28.967
A third of the entire state needs assistance.

00:46:28.967 --> 00:46:33.293
What is going on in New Mexico that so many people are on Medicare?

00:46:33.293 --> 00:46:42.445
On Medicaid, I mean I don't know, it's not, I don't think New Mexico's All that, you know, it's not like it's that old.

00:46:42.445 --> 00:46:44.329
It's got to be something going on.

00:46:44.329 --> 00:46:56.427
Well, because Medicare and Medicaid you know it's people that need Medicaid is basically the one that takes care of drug prescriptions and doctor visits and all that stuff, right?

00:46:56.427 --> 00:47:03.907
So I mean, my guess is there's a higher level of indigenous, you know, native Americans in New Mexico than some of the other states.

00:47:03.907 --> 00:47:05.913
But that wouldn't apply to, like, louisiana.

00:47:05.913 --> 00:47:12.739
I mean, there's not more Native Americans in Louisiana than Georgia or in Kentucky and West Virginia.

00:47:12.739 --> 00:47:22.367
Now, west Virginia and Kentucky again, you're probably talking about the Appalachian that have lost all their manufacturing and coal New York and California.

00:47:23.286 --> 00:47:29.347
they kind of balance each other out because they pay in more taxes than they receive benefits-wise anyway.

00:47:29.347 --> 00:47:32.686
It's a couple of states like that.

00:47:32.686 --> 00:47:38.684
It's like Alaska, texas, alaska Texas, california, new York.

00:47:38.684 --> 00:47:44.807
Those are the plus states.

00:47:44.827 --> 00:47:46.952
Think of why Alaska's a great one.

00:47:46.952 --> 00:47:51.010
Why does Alaska pay more into the system than they take out?

00:47:52.681 --> 00:47:53.583
Well, the oil reserves.

00:47:53.583 --> 00:47:55.891
The oil reserves, oil, right, yeah, absolutely.

00:47:56.681 --> 00:47:59.250
Why does Texas pay in more than their population?

00:47:59.920 --> 00:48:01.226
Well, yeah, of course, the oil reserves.

00:48:01.860 --> 00:48:02.985
Liquefied natural gas.

00:48:02.985 --> 00:48:03.989
Right yeah.

00:48:03.989 --> 00:48:12.485
Why does California pay in more Agriculture it?

00:48:12.545 --> 00:48:14.494
used to be agriculture, now it's tech.

00:48:14.494 --> 00:48:20.315
Well, yeah Well yeah, tech too, yeah, yeah yeah.

00:48:20.315 --> 00:48:20.597
New York.

00:48:20.597 --> 00:48:21.239
Why does New York pay more?

00:48:21.239 --> 00:48:23.920
New York City, yeah.

00:48:23.940 --> 00:48:25.284
I would say, yeah, yeah, tourism, maybe enterprise.

00:48:25.284 --> 00:48:28.010
Well, yeah, I'm sure tourism to a degree, but it's it's.

00:48:28.010 --> 00:48:29.132
It's the financial sector.

00:48:29.132 --> 00:48:34.211
It's the financial sector that that you still have to have certain taxes that go into outright.

00:48:35.061 --> 00:48:37.206
So, Right, and that's, and that's fine.

00:48:37.206 --> 00:48:39.391
I mean, that's why we're the United States of America.

00:48:39.391 --> 00:48:46.483
That's one of the things that always has bothered me in this whole idea of, well, red states get more money from the blue states than by.

00:48:46.483 --> 00:48:48.085
Look, we're all in this together.

00:48:48.085 --> 00:48:55.996
Like, isn't that the point of of having a country that takes care of everybody as needed?

00:48:55.996 --> 00:49:01.632
My bigger problem is when we're taking care of people that don't need to be taken care of, if that makes sense.

00:49:02.219 --> 00:49:14.231
Yeah, we were at dinner and we were having we were just just a little while ago and my daughter said something about one of her friends and she said I'll bet you didn't know my friend so-and-so is autistic.

00:49:14.231 --> 00:49:17.550
And I went what, what are you talking about?

00:49:17.550 --> 00:49:24.192
And so we started going into it and I'm like, if she's autistic, then everybody's autistic, right?

00:49:24.192 --> 00:49:31.864
Then by that argument it's kind of like my argument against um, two genders there's either.

00:49:31.864 --> 00:49:42.021
There's only two choices there's either two genders, male and female, or there is 7.2 billion genders, because everybody has their own definition of whatever their gender, right?

00:49:42.021 --> 00:49:44.344
So autism is the same thing.

00:49:44.344 --> 00:49:47.108
Autism is to.

00:49:47.108 --> 00:50:05.824
If you're going to say that, you can say everybody's on the spectrum, but it goes like this Right, the real outliers are the ones that actually have real significant issues, but for the most part most people are, let's say, normal, and I know people get up to normal.

00:50:06.045 --> 00:50:08.632
There is such a thing as normal right.

00:50:08.632 --> 00:50:20.081
So the vast majority of people are normal, but we all have our own quirks, we all have our but, and this started because my I think one of my kids or my wife might've said well, you're autistic.

00:50:20.081 --> 00:50:22.445
I'm like no, I'm not autistic, I'm smart.

00:50:22.445 --> 00:50:26.010
I think about things, I'm quick on the ball.

00:50:26.010 --> 00:50:27.333
I I'm not.

00:50:27.333 --> 00:50:31.226
I don't have ADHD, I think things quickly.

00:50:31.226 --> 00:50:42.445
Now I'm getting to the point where I'm worried a little bit about my cognitive, simply because I'm older and I lose words and I'm not able to express myself in the same way I'd like to or have been able to in the past.

00:50:42.445 --> 00:50:43.407
But that's age.

00:50:43.829 --> 00:50:44.291
We've seen.

00:50:44.291 --> 00:50:51.400
We've seen that come out this week right, we've seen.

00:50:51.420 --> 00:51:04.251
We've seen that this week, right, well, I guarantee you, if I went through testing, if, if 12 year old I'll probably be younger than that right, if they took eight year old lance and put him into testing, 100 would have been labeled adhd and or autistic.

00:51:04.251 --> 00:51:08.264
Because, because I, just I would do stuff.

00:51:08.264 --> 00:51:08.865
I had my.

00:51:08.865 --> 00:51:13.284
My teachers were like, oh, this kid won't sit still, all he does is talk.

00:51:13.284 --> 00:51:16.853
Yeah, because I would finish the homework that was supposed to.

00:51:16.853 --> 00:51:19.510
Here's, here's the instruction for the class.

00:51:19.992 --> 00:51:26.043
Now I'm going to give you the homework, so you have the next 30 minutes to work on your homework and whatever isn't finished you take home as homework.

00:51:26.043 --> 00:51:28.891
I'd be done with the homework in literally five minutes.

00:51:28.891 --> 00:51:31.027
So then, what do you do when you're done with all the homework?

00:51:31.027 --> 00:51:34.387
You start talking and you say what else can I do?

00:51:34.387 --> 00:51:35.110
What else can I do?

00:51:35.110 --> 00:51:36.860
Right, and?

00:51:36.860 --> 00:51:37.503
And?

00:51:37.503 --> 00:51:39.469
Yeah, I probably would have been put on meds.

00:51:39.469 --> 00:51:41.760
I hope my, my parents wouldn't have put me on meds.

00:51:41.760 --> 00:51:44.983
Um and and now.

00:51:44.983 --> 00:51:48.846
Oh my gosh, can you imagine now, eight-year-old Lance?

00:51:48.846 --> 00:51:59.472
Now, give him an iPad on top of everything else, with TV shows and little snippets of the interwebs that are all based on?

00:51:59.472 --> 00:52:04.615
You can't watch this for longer than 60 seconds before you lose interest.

00:52:04.615 --> 00:52:06.237
You lose interest, kj and I would.

00:52:06.237 --> 00:52:10.027
Kj cuts these little snippets.

00:52:10.027 --> 00:52:16.867
He keeps them under a minute because we want people to see them, because we know by the algorithm people will watch them for more than a minute.

00:52:16.867 --> 00:52:18.606
So are we contributing to ADHD?

00:52:18.606 --> 00:52:22.626
Sure why, because that's the only reason people will watch it.

00:52:22.626 --> 00:52:23.742
That's a good clip.

00:52:23.742 --> 00:52:25.289
There's a good clip for you that works.

00:52:27.922 --> 00:52:47.164
But to take it full circle, to go back to, you know, welfare and Medicare and Medicaid and all that stuff, I think the only there is one way to get the country out of debt and to kind of fix what's going on, and honestly it's.

00:52:47.164 --> 00:52:48.065
It's a.

00:52:48.065 --> 00:52:50.550
It starts with electricity and starts with fuel.

00:52:50.550 --> 00:53:13.201
And if you go in and the United States decides that we are going to go all in on petroleum and on fossil fuels along with nuclear, that we become a major player in the export, especially of oil, over the next 30 to 50 years.

00:53:13.201 --> 00:53:15.344
That's how it happens.

00:53:15.344 --> 00:53:21.302
The reason Saudi Arabia and Qatar and these countries have all the money is because of the oil.

00:53:21.302 --> 00:53:31.422
There is more oil in the United States and natural gas than there is in Saudi Arabia and Qatar in the Middle East, but for us it's all up in.

00:53:31.422 --> 00:53:38.784
It's either A up in Alaska, it's in oil shale, which is harder to process, or it's off the coast.

00:53:38.804 --> 00:53:44.282
Do you remember when the Horizon rig blew up and it was such a big deal?

00:53:44.282 --> 00:53:52.351
The reason it was so hard to fix was because the environmentalists had said you cannot drill this close to the shoreline.

00:53:52.351 --> 00:53:57.190
If that drill and they didn't need to remember they will be blood.

00:53:57.190 --> 00:53:58.032
Right, there will be blood.

00:53:58.032 --> 00:54:01.771
It says your field is over here and I've got my straw.

00:54:01.771 --> 00:54:05.425
I drink your milkshake, I drink it up.

00:54:05.425 --> 00:54:15.501
Milkshake, I'd drink it up.

00:54:15.501 --> 00:54:18.050
The Deepwater Horizon didn't need to be built 50 miles off the coast and 30 miles deep, or whatever the numbers were.

00:54:18.050 --> 00:54:24.391
It could have been done right by the shore and then if it had popped, it would have been like oh crap, turn it off, let's get it fixed.

00:54:24.391 --> 00:54:28.311
It would have been a minor issue.

00:54:28.311 --> 00:54:33.300
It would have probably dumped a few thousand, maybe 10,000 gallons, but instead it was.

00:54:33.300 --> 00:54:40.789
Although tin hat time, I'm going to make a major detour on this one.

00:54:40.789 --> 00:54:54.407
Do you remember how they were saying that the Deepwater Horizon was spilling tens of thousands of gallons every single day into the ocean?

00:54:54.588 --> 00:55:05.282
and it was all washing up on the beaches, all there, and it was going to be an ecological disaster worse than we've ever seen in the history of the world and all the beaches were going to be ruined.

00:55:05.282 --> 00:55:11.054
Do you remember ever seeing beaches that were actually covered in oil?

00:55:11.054 --> 00:55:12.525
I remember little patches.

00:55:15.085 --> 00:55:18.737
To be fair, I wasn't really interested at that time so I couldn't tell you I was.

00:55:19.239 --> 00:55:21.942
Yeah, that was a huge deal, but.

00:55:21.942 --> 00:55:44.387
I never understood, like I never saw the outcome, and so I don't know, and I'm sure people will go back and go no, no, you're completely wrong, you're crazy, maybe so, but I don't remember seeing the effects of the deep water horizon, the way that because, again, this was something that was supposed to be just one of the biggest ecological disasters.

00:55:44.467 --> 00:55:47.902
And that's one of the reasons they say we can't, you can't drill here.

00:55:47.902 --> 00:55:50.186
You can't drill there, anwar.

00:55:50.186 --> 00:55:56.784
You can't drill in Anwar province because it's a spectacular place that is the most pristine part of the world.

00:55:56.784 --> 00:56:03.083
It's also a part of the world that less than 0.00001% of people will ever see.

00:56:03.083 --> 00:56:07.331
It's one of the most remote, difficult places to get to, right?

00:56:07.331 --> 00:56:15.793
Yeah, so until we get serious about drilling and using that oil, because it's not just about fuel.

00:56:15.793 --> 00:56:17.864
Kj, what did you just pick up?

00:56:17.864 --> 00:56:19.346
You just took a drink out of it, right?

00:56:19.346 --> 00:56:26.773
Sure how much petroleum, how many petroleum products were used in this cup.

00:56:26.773 --> 00:56:32.132
This cup cannot be made without fossil fuels.

00:56:32.132 --> 00:56:36.460
My glasses cannot be made without fossil fuels.

00:56:36.460 --> 00:56:42.512
My phone, this shirt, much of our food can't be made without fossil fuels.

00:56:42.512 --> 00:57:11.054
So, to me, what I would love to see as an American, I would love to see an energy policy that says we are going to dominate the world when it comes to energy, whether it's nuclear power or whether it's liquefied natural gas or other fossil fuels, petroleum oil.

00:57:11.940 --> 00:57:13.806
I am definitely all for nuclear.

00:57:15.050 --> 00:57:23.793
And me too, and until we do that, this is always going to be the sort of Damocles hanging over our head going when's it going to break?

00:57:23.793 --> 00:57:25.666
When are we going to have all these financial issues?

00:57:25.666 --> 00:57:28.208
When is the budget going to get us?

00:57:28.208 --> 00:57:35.293
But instead we kick it down the road because environmentalists are dirtbags flat out.

00:57:35.293 --> 00:57:40.563
The environmentalist is a scam, the people that do environmental studies.

00:57:40.563 --> 00:57:46.606
They don't want anything to be built, they want to be able to keep a job.

00:57:46.606 --> 00:57:47.268
And so what do they do?

00:57:47.268 --> 00:57:52.791
Hey, we have to have an environmental impact study done on this piece of property.

00:57:52.831 --> 00:57:57.793
Somebody wants to build an apartment building that would provide housing, right?

00:57:57.793 --> 00:58:03.668
Oh, now we have to have an environmental impact study and that environmental impact study has to be paid for.

00:58:04.070 --> 00:58:08.144
So now the government has to pay for the environmental impact study, or the private citizen has to.

00:58:08.144 --> 00:58:14.202
And then the environmental impact guy goes well, you know, this doesn't meet the environmental impact?

00:58:14.202 --> 00:58:14.923
Ooh, it doesn't.

00:58:14.923 --> 00:58:19.463
It doesn't meet the rules of the EPA or whatever federal we've put in place.

00:58:19.463 --> 00:58:22.090
And so then the builder goes okay, well, what do we need?

00:58:22.090 --> 00:58:24.643
And they go, you just didn't pass.

00:58:24.643 --> 00:58:26.588
I mean, here's some of the problems with it.

00:58:26.588 --> 00:58:28.753
If you're in the military, it's like the S1.

00:58:28.753 --> 00:58:31.347
Okay, here, this memo's wrong.

00:58:31.347 --> 00:58:32.210
Well, what's wrong with it?

00:58:32.210 --> 00:58:33.385
Well, we circle, what's wrong with it?

00:58:33.385 --> 00:58:37.407
And then you turn it in a second time and they go nope, this paragraph needs to be changed.

00:58:37.407 --> 00:58:38.250
You're in the wrong font.

00:58:38.250 --> 00:58:40.766
Why didn't you tell me that the first time?

00:58:40.766 --> 00:58:43.043
Sorry, go fix it.

00:58:43.043 --> 00:58:45.226
Third time, well, okay, and they go.

00:58:45.246 --> 00:59:03.672
sorry, your paragraph four can't be done now, well, to be fair, to be fair, environmental studies have kind of predicted some, some bad stuff, like what was the, the pipeline that ran through from from the gulf to canada, and the environment.

00:59:03.672 --> 00:59:11.913
And yeah, the environmental impact study was like, hey, this is gonna leak because it's running across the fault line and when it does, it's gonna spill over everything.

00:59:11.913 --> 00:59:13.882
And then it was completely dismissed.

00:59:13.882 --> 00:59:24.329
As liberal, you know sensationalism and yada, yada, yada, lo and behold, the fault slipped and then the pipe cracked and then everybody was left saying, oh, if only we knew.

00:59:24.329 --> 00:59:27.423
But I mean, so there is.

00:59:27.423 --> 00:59:30.472
I mean there are mean, but there's corruption.

00:59:31.440 --> 00:59:34.010
I assume you're talking about a different pipeline Keystone.

00:59:34.010 --> 00:59:36.402
Keystone was never finished.

00:59:36.965 --> 00:59:37.567
Was it Keystone?

00:59:37.567 --> 00:59:38.309
Which one that popped?

00:59:38.309 --> 00:59:38.990
Oh, we got to go.

00:59:38.990 --> 00:59:41.527
Hey, so not, we got to go, but we got to end.

00:59:41.527 --> 00:59:42.931
Yep, all right.

00:59:42.931 --> 00:59:48.413
So the guys that are following us on CTR, we're about to hit that one minute, one hour time limit.

00:59:48.413 --> 00:59:50.327
We will talk to you guys next week.

00:59:50.327 --> 00:59:56.233
If you want to continue the discussion, come hop over into Facebook, instagram, youtube or Twitch.

00:59:56.233 --> 00:59:59.333
Join us, because we're going to continue this and then I'm going to pull this up.

00:59:59.333 --> 01:00:04.431
All right, now that we are back, I got to go pull it up.

01:00:04.431 --> 01:00:09.311
So I did post the information for the results of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.

01:00:09.311 --> 01:00:11.242
I didn't know.

01:00:11.242 --> 01:00:12.644
It happened in 2010,.

01:00:12.644 --> 01:00:13.686
Man, yeah, I was.

01:00:13.686 --> 01:00:16.373
I was completely on a completely different mission back then.

01:00:16.373 --> 01:00:18.764
But what was the oil spill?

01:00:18.764 --> 01:00:24.733
Because the oil spill, I think it spilled in like the Native Americans were bugging out about it spilling in there.

01:00:25.764 --> 01:00:42.000
It spilled in like the Native Americans were bugging out about it spilling in there Because, ok, so Keystone, what it was going to do is going to take oil from Canada down to Louisiana where it was going to be refined, because Canada basically has no refineries Right.

01:00:42.000 --> 01:00:46.885
So this was going to cut down on the shipping costs and all that stuff has no refineries right.

01:00:46.885 --> 01:00:48.688
So this was going to cut down on the shipping costs and all that stuff.

01:00:48.688 --> 01:00:53.952
Where the pipeline was going to go was going to go right through a native one of the tribal areas and it was going to go under the lake.

01:00:53.952 --> 01:01:01.365
They were going to actually build it under the lake, so that's what they were worried about.

01:01:01.385 --> 01:01:01.806
Right, it did spill.

01:01:01.806 --> 01:01:03.871
Yeah, it was Keystone that spilled in October of 22.

01:01:03.871 --> 01:01:11.876
It was never finished.

01:01:11.876 --> 01:01:12.760
So how did it spill?

01:01:12.760 --> 01:01:16.931
It wasn't.

01:01:16.931 --> 01:01:18.898
It spilled since the 2022 Kansas spill.

01:01:18.898 --> 01:01:26.612
This spill released an estimated five hundred and eighty eight thousand gallons of crude oil into a creek, according to the EPA.

01:01:26.612 --> 01:01:39.786
Additionally, a recent spill in April of 2025 in North Dakota resulted in an estimated 3,500 barrels 147,000 gallons of oil being released into an agricultural field Keystone.

01:01:40.527 --> 01:01:43.293
There are pipelines, but Keystone was never finished.

01:01:43.293 --> 01:01:44.563
That's why.

01:01:45.226 --> 01:01:52.742
Yeah, I don't know, apparently it was, at least some parts of it was because maybe yeah, it says the.

01:01:52.983 --> 01:01:54.815
Keystone was not going to be completed.

01:01:55.480 --> 01:01:58.606
Yeah, wiki, ap Pipeline Safety Trust.

01:01:58.606 --> 01:02:01.791
Yeah, they're all reporting on it.

01:02:01.791 --> 01:02:03.625
Rutgers reported on it.

01:02:03.625 --> 01:02:12.934
The EPA the first bill was in 22 in Kansas and then the second one was in April of 2025.

01:02:16.780 --> 01:02:17.764
April of 25.

01:02:18.686 --> 01:02:18.987
Yeah.

01:02:19.429 --> 01:02:19.891
Last month.

01:02:20.679 --> 01:02:25.969
Yeah, april 14th, where they lost 147,000 gallons.

01:02:27.152 --> 01:02:28.054
That must be nothing.

01:02:28.054 --> 01:02:30.447
Did you see anything in the news?

01:02:30.487 --> 01:02:30.809
about that.

01:02:30.809 --> 01:02:35.911
Well, I mean, given the administration, probably.

01:02:36.179 --> 01:02:37.847
To be fair, I don't really watch the news.

01:02:38.400 --> 01:02:46.612
I'm going to say, given the sensationalism of the administration, that probably ran across the screen as a blip compared to the stuff that was going on.

01:02:47.221 --> 01:03:04.358
It's definitely there Keystone Phase 1 was from Hardesty Alberta to Steel City, nebraska, and eastward to Patoka, illinois, completed in 2010.

01:03:04.358 --> 01:03:11.304
Phase 2 was from Steel City, nebraska, to Cushing, oklahoma, completed in February of 11.

01:03:11.304 --> 01:03:17.686
Phase three, from Cushing Oklahoma to Port Arthur, texas, was completed in January of 14.

01:03:17.686 --> 01:03:26.512
The proposed phase four, keystone XL, which aimed to create a more direct route from Hardesty Alberta to Stills City, nebraska, was never completed.

01:03:26.512 --> 01:03:36.552
It faced significant opposition and was officially terminated by TC Energy in June 2021, after President Biden revoked a key permit in January 2021.

01:03:36.980 --> 01:03:43.902
OK, so it sounds like you had Keystone going like this, and then they wanted part of it to go like that yeah, that was the part that got me OK.

01:03:43.902 --> 01:03:48.329
So, and then they wanted part of it to go like that yeah, and that was the part that got me Okay.

01:03:48.329 --> 01:04:02.117
So I mean again, I look at a lot of this stuff and go, okay, it's probably easier to clean up a spill from a pipeline than it is from an oil tanker, like how much?

01:04:02.137 --> 01:04:03.806
Well, let's look how much did the Exxon valve?

01:04:03.806 --> 01:04:06.248
So you said the big one was about 600,000 gallons.

01:04:06.248 --> 01:04:07.010
Is that what it was?

01:04:07.099 --> 01:04:09.266
Yeah, it was 588,000.

01:04:09.266 --> 01:04:09.849
I wonder how much.

01:04:09.849 --> 01:04:13.132
Well, you got Exxon Valdez, and then the other one.

01:04:13.132 --> 01:04:14.579
What was the other one?

01:04:15.822 --> 01:04:17.228
I remember Exxon Valdez.

01:04:17.228 --> 01:04:18.826
I'm sure there's a few.

01:04:19.641 --> 01:04:20.786
That was one of the biggest ones.

01:04:20.846 --> 01:04:28.684
Yes, that was a huge one in Alaska.

01:04:28.684 --> 01:04:29.307
I remember that one.

01:04:29.307 --> 01:04:31.197
I think the captain Was arrested.

01:04:31.217 --> 01:04:31.518
Wasn't he drunk?

01:04:31.518 --> 01:04:31.920
I don't know.

01:04:35.315 --> 01:04:38.648
Oh so deep water Spilled 206 million gallons of oil.

01:04:38.648 --> 01:04:50.726
Yeah, oh, I knew that was a huge number and then Exxon Valdez spilled 11 million gallons, so deep water horizon absolutely trumped everybody okay so okay.

01:04:50.746 --> 01:04:54.592
So think about it like this though the the pipelines.

01:04:54.592 --> 01:05:00.510
One of them, one of the major ones that you just said was 35 000 gallons, yeah.

01:05:00.510 --> 01:05:02.092
The other one was 500 000.

01:05:02.092 --> 01:05:04.304
Those are big ones for pipelines, right?

01:05:04.304 --> 01:05:10.795
Yes, one tanker lost 11 million gallons, yeah.

01:05:10.795 --> 01:05:17.648
So to me the pipeline's a way better plan and it's easier to clean up.

01:05:17.648 --> 01:05:22.000
If it breaks in land, it's in dirt, it's easier to clean up.

01:05:22.000 --> 01:05:34.869
Now I'm sure the argument would be it can get into the groundwater and all that stuff, sure, but my guess is any rational person I shouldn't say that because environmentalists aren't rational.

01:05:37.023 --> 01:05:38.668
But here's the issue that you're going to have.

01:05:38.668 --> 01:05:45.286
It's the same thing with the highways, the highways, and then when they put up all the towers, where are you going to put them?

01:05:45.286 --> 01:05:47.139
With the highways, and then the highways, and then when they put up all the, the uh, what's it?

01:05:47.139 --> 01:05:47.219
The?

01:05:47.219 --> 01:05:49.826
The towers, right, where are you gonna put them?

01:05:49.826 --> 01:05:51.630
Yeah, where do you put them?

01:05:51.630 --> 01:05:54.467
You don't put them in the affluent neighborhoods because they don't want to see them.

01:05:54.467 --> 01:06:01.175
So now you're gonna run them straight through the underprivileged areas, right, and then you're gonna have to.

01:06:01.175 --> 01:06:04.788
You don't want to acknowledge the health effects that come with it, right, like all it.

01:06:04.788 --> 01:06:11.286
I'll give you an example of the people who were affected from the cell tower, who got cancer.

01:06:11.286 --> 01:06:18.025
Then the companies were like oh well, it's not our fault, it's not our fault because this is where they told us to put it.

01:06:21.081 --> 01:06:26.869
This stuff goes back for as long as you want to argue, look at New York City.

01:06:26.869 --> 01:06:37.775
The Long Island Expressway was explicitly used by the guy who ran New York and was the guy who basically engineered all of New York, new York City.

01:06:38.501 --> 01:06:39.465
He had it planned out.

01:06:39.659 --> 01:06:49.880
And then he went in to strong arm the rich people and said hey, if you don't donate to this, this or this, I'm going to put the Long Island Expressway right through your backyard.

01:06:49.880 --> 01:06:51.985
And they went what do you need?

01:06:51.985 --> 01:06:52.969
How much?

01:06:52.969 --> 01:06:53.851
Okay done.

01:06:53.851 --> 01:06:58.246
And so then he built it onto the farmers and the farmers were like no, no, no, you can't do it here.

01:06:58.246 --> 01:07:01.181
And he was like yes, ma'am.

01:07:02.402 --> 01:07:03.543
So it's always.

01:07:03.543 --> 01:07:09.148
And that dude was a massive Democrat, so so it's not like this is just a Republican.

01:07:09.148 --> 01:07:14.311
This is always affluent versus poor, and it's always been like that through the history.

01:07:14.311 --> 01:07:28.608
My guess is, when the pharaoh came in and said, hey, I want to build the pyramids over here, the rich people were like, hey, no, no, no, hey, hey, we, you know, we, we do the trading in this.

01:07:28.608 --> 01:07:29.250
No, don't go over there.

01:07:29.269 --> 01:07:44.067
And they were like oh well, wait a minute, you don't this is our farmland and the pharaoh went yeah, too bad, that's where we're gonna, because my, my buddy, hepateth, that's where he, you know I can't build it over there because that's where his trading barges are yep, so that reminds me emperor's new groove.

01:07:44.648 --> 01:07:46.452
I want to put a water slide right there.

01:07:49.324 --> 01:07:50.467
I just need an answer.

01:07:50.467 --> 01:07:51.985
Would you say?

01:07:51.985 --> 01:07:54.068
These are the most beautiful hills?

01:07:54.068 --> 01:07:55.606
Oh, and the light is a face.

01:07:55.606 --> 01:07:59.262
All right, great, oh, is that all you needed for it?

01:07:59.262 --> 01:08:03.851
Yep, I just needed to work my new vacation house with Cuscotopia.

01:08:03.851 --> 01:08:06.039
That is one of my favorite.

01:08:06.039 --> 01:08:08.429
I love the Emperor's New Groove.

01:08:08.429 --> 01:08:14.907
It is so good, especially like wait, how'd you beat us back here?

01:08:14.907 --> 01:08:19.728
Well, actually, there's no reason we should have beat you back here.

01:08:19.728 --> 01:08:23.340
It's totally flowing off, it's perfect.

01:08:23.340 --> 01:08:26.378
It's the best little inside joke, like yeah it shouldn't happen.

01:08:27.039 --> 01:08:31.985
That was probably one of the most underrated Disney movies that they.

01:08:31.985 --> 01:08:34.469
That movie was absolutely hilarious.

01:08:34.469 --> 01:08:38.801
All right, we got to keep going Wrong lever, All right.

01:08:38.801 --> 01:08:40.649
So we talked about Supreme Court.

01:08:40.649 --> 01:08:42.065
We talked about.

01:08:42.065 --> 01:08:43.363
What else did we talk about?

01:08:43.363 --> 01:08:44.228
We talked about Medicaid.

01:08:44.228 --> 01:08:45.621
Oh, this is a good one.

01:08:45.841 --> 01:08:46.261
Are you ready?

01:08:46.261 --> 01:08:47.143
What do we want to do?

01:08:47.143 --> 01:08:49.185
Should we just go for the 90-minute mark?

01:08:49.185 --> 01:08:49.747
Go another 20?

01:08:50.387 --> 01:08:50.707
minutes.

01:08:50.707 --> 01:08:52.451
Yeah, let's knock that out.

01:08:52.451 --> 01:08:55.574
We'll do this one and then I'll hit you with a surprise one at the end.

01:08:55.574 --> 01:08:57.502
So here we go.

01:08:57.502 --> 01:09:01.552
So you know your boy had some successes, right?

01:09:01.552 --> 01:09:07.680
Let's call them that.

01:09:07.680 --> 01:09:10.627
And or potential successes the deals were were put on paper, so we'll kind of see how that goes.

01:09:10.627 --> 01:09:13.431
Once again, though, well, I mean just yeah, just not, not.

01:09:13.431 --> 01:09:19.300
I mean I use that term loosely, you know, it's just one of those things so it's like it's like the effort.

01:09:19.921 --> 01:09:20.943
Yeah, it's like all right.

01:09:20.943 --> 01:09:29.503
So our boy trumpOTUS, our representative to the world, had some wins.

01:09:29.503 --> 01:09:37.551
I got a couple of clips and we'll rock it from there, but from my favorite news station.

01:09:40.461 --> 01:09:41.485
Historic four days.

01:09:41.485 --> 01:10:01.194
The jobs and money coming into our country has never been anything like it Just amazing what they've done so one man's hero is another man's villain, right?

01:10:01.716 --> 01:10:03.037
So let's talk about it here we go.

01:10:03.100 --> 01:10:08.690
Trump has an ongoing relationship with the Saudi-backed golf tournament, which again uses government money.

01:10:08.690 --> 01:10:27.862
That is quite common in that region, but the question is where does that money head If, like the jet, we are seeing a veritable map of self-dealing, as the US government interests your safety and security around the world, our soldiers, et cetera, is somehow mixed or even comes second to all of these business dealings.

01:10:28.764 --> 01:10:33.354
Trump has an ongoing so there you have it Two sides of the coin.

01:10:33.354 --> 01:10:48.524
One side is telling this is historic, you know potential deals with trillions of dollars possibly coming into the country, and the other side, I wouldn't say two sides of the coin, I'll just say two different perspectives in reporting.

01:10:48.524 --> 01:10:49.528
Right, because they're both true.

01:10:49.528 --> 01:10:56.653
They're both true, just depends on how you want to, I guess, interpret the data you're receiving.

01:10:56.653 --> 01:10:57.823
So what are your thoughts?

01:10:59.630 --> 01:11:00.432
I think it's just that.

01:11:00.432 --> 01:11:01.515
I think it's somewhere in the middle.

01:11:01.515 --> 01:11:12.217
I think that Saudi Arabia is saying I think it was Saudi that said we're going to invest a trillion dollars in the United States.

01:11:12.217 --> 01:11:14.868
You see celebrities all the time pledge.

01:11:14.868 --> 01:11:24.046
I'm going to pledge $100,000 to this, and then the charity comes back and goes hey, we never got that money.

01:11:24.046 --> 01:11:25.962
Well, that's because it was pledged.

01:11:25.962 --> 01:11:28.167
It's not donated, it's not given.

01:11:28.167 --> 01:11:29.310
Wait a minute.

01:11:29.329 --> 01:11:32.042
Hold on Before you could go.

01:11:32.042 --> 01:11:35.110
Our boy Trump did that on the campaign trail.

01:11:35.110 --> 01:11:45.310
He went into a restaurant for a photo op and promised to pay everybody's meal on camera, and when the camera took off, he left and stiffed everybody with the bill.

01:11:48.523 --> 01:11:51.920
Sure, it looks good, right, and so think about it like this what was reported?

01:11:51.920 --> 01:11:54.213
The clip of him.

01:11:54.783 --> 01:12:09.372
it was probably the clip of him saying I'm paying for everybody's meal exactly and they didn't follow up and it wasn't like it wasn't that President Trump today went into Moe's Diner and he offered to buy everybody's bill.

01:12:09.372 --> 01:12:11.447
He then said this da, da, da, da da.

01:12:11.447 --> 01:12:17.512
At the end of the bill, the future the Republican candidate got on his bus and left.

01:12:17.512 --> 01:12:21.963
However, we found that he didn't pay for anything, and then they go.

01:12:21.963 --> 01:12:25.315
But then, of course, plausible deniability, right, of course.

01:12:25.315 --> 01:12:26.846
And this is what would have happened.

01:12:26.846 --> 01:12:35.414
President Trump, cnn reporting yesterday, when you went into Moe's Diner, you offered to pay everybody's bill and you left without paying anything.

01:12:35.414 --> 01:12:36.362
What do you have to say to that?

01:12:36.362 --> 01:12:39.891
Well, I'd say that my campaign obviously dropped the ball.

01:12:39.891 --> 01:12:45.573
I said that, I mean, you don't think, you don't think I actually have the credit card to do this.

01:12:45.573 --> 01:12:50.240
The campaign Are you telling me the camp?

01:12:50.240 --> 01:12:50.402
Oh, what?

01:12:50.402 --> 01:12:50.862
Who am I going to fire?

01:12:50.862 --> 01:12:52.985
It's always plausible deniability, Right?

01:12:52.985 --> 01:12:59.215
So, as far as, as far as, like Saudi and all this goes like, I mean, I think it's funny for CNN.

01:13:02.439 --> 01:13:02.621
Was that?

01:13:02.621 --> 01:13:02.962
Cnn or MSNBC?

01:13:02.962 --> 01:13:03.163
Was the?

01:13:03.163 --> 01:13:03.645
That was, that was both.

01:13:03.645 --> 01:13:11.109
So was fox fox with the greatest, greatest deals ever, and msnbc was like, yeah, well, we got business dealings everywhere else, yeah, so.

01:13:11.570 --> 01:13:16.712
so I you know when the whole thing came out with, uh, one of the deals was it syria.

01:13:16.712 --> 01:13:28.744
I think that that trump is recognizing the president of syria, who, uh, definitely has past terror ties right, and he's saying well, you know, we've got to.

01:13:28.744 --> 01:13:33.186
They're the legitimate government now We've got to work with them, we've got to try to come to some sort of peace.

01:13:33.186 --> 01:13:45.845
I believe I tweeted out that if that had been the Harris administration doing that, the, you know, cnn and MSNBC would have been bending over backwards saying what a great foreign policy it was.

01:13:45.845 --> 01:13:48.024
So this is, this is the problem with it.

01:13:48.043 --> 01:14:06.043
Like I don't trust any of the of the Middle East states, I think that they are all out for themselves in a very different way than because I've said this before Every state is out for themselves, right?

01:14:06.043 --> 01:14:15.395
It doesn't matter if it's Botswana and Indonesia and Taiwan and Peru, right?

01:14:15.395 --> 01:14:31.729
Each of those countries, no matter what trade deal they do, whatever treaties, whatever they're doing, they want to win, they want to have the best outcome of whatever they do, and that's true of the United States, it's true of Saudi Arabia and whatever.

01:14:31.729 --> 01:14:45.448
I do have much more concern with countries like Saudi Arabia, qatar, turkey, countries that are Muslim, because there is not a real difference.

01:14:45.930 --> 01:14:53.969
If you understand Islam, there's not a big difference between Islam and the government.

01:14:53.969 --> 01:14:57.435
An Islamic government is Islam.

01:14:57.435 --> 01:15:05.208
Islam is 18% religious and 82% way of life and government and all that stuff.

01:15:05.208 --> 01:15:06.851
So you have a very.

01:15:06.851 --> 01:15:12.551
It's a very, very different thing, and if you're not willing to acknowledge it, you're just not being honest.

01:15:12.551 --> 01:15:19.453
And so for Trump to go in and say, well, we're going to get this from Saudi Arabia and think that Saudi Arabia is going to be the best partner.

01:15:21.041 --> 01:15:25.091
Saudi Arabia has funded more terrorism against the United States than any other country.

01:15:25.091 --> 01:16:03.020
Saudi Arabia has funded more terrorism against the United States than any other country since terrorism really started with the Muslim Brotherhood in the children, in the ways of Islam, especially in traditional Islam that pushes for jihad and the evil of the West right, and so that's where you know, and if you want to tell me that that's not what they're doing anymore, okay, we can have that discussion.

01:16:03.020 --> 01:16:18.331
And if you're telling me they're not going to anymore, but I look at somewhere like Syria and Lebanon and go, you know what, maybe the first step is not to be rounding up Christians in their churches and lighting the church on fire with people inside.

01:16:19.001 --> 01:16:26.911
That's a good start to get me feeling better about your country, and until then I don't, I'm not going to trust saudi arabia anymore.

01:16:26.911 --> 01:16:27.921
That's what's funny.

01:16:27.921 --> 01:16:29.750
Is you know this whole thing about I?

01:16:29.750 --> 01:16:36.074
I saw something today about why we're spending billions of dollars bombing a place people can't find on the map and he was.

01:16:36.074 --> 01:16:39.865
It was a new york times article talking about yemen, and I'm sitting there going.

01:16:39.865 --> 01:16:45.288
Just because you can't find it on a map, mr new york times writer, doesn't mean that I can't.

01:16:46.161 --> 01:17:22.188
And so ultimately if Trump going in and doing deals with Saudi Arabia and Syria and Qatar and whatever other Middle East country, if that lowers the risk of A United States being involved in military action in those Middle Eastern countries and B that those Middle Eastern I'm not even going to say Middle Eastern, I'm going to flat out say those Muslim countries having an active goal of destroying and wiping out Israel and creating a genocide of Israel, I'm all for it.

01:17:22.188 --> 01:17:23.971
Do I think that's what's happening?

01:17:24.233 --> 01:17:24.734
No not really.

01:17:24.734 --> 01:17:30.000
I think, once again, it all comes down to showing themselves and being in the best position.

01:17:30.000 --> 01:17:34.311
Do I think Trump's doing it specifically to put money in his own pocket?

01:17:34.311 --> 01:17:40.353
No, I think he just kind of looks at it as that's a nice byproduct of of greasing the wheels.

01:17:40.353 --> 01:17:41.666
He looks at this as business.

01:17:42.720 --> 01:18:08.067
I think Trump looks at it as, if I go and do this deal with, let's say, saudi Arabia, it's going to be easier for Eric to set up a deal where Trump Towers in Riyadh, and I think Trump just looks at it as that's just a nice little coincidence that that's what happens.

01:18:08.067 --> 01:18:19.542
I'm not going to go in and do a deal in Saudi Arabia to get a new tower in Riyadh, but if that is the end result, well, cool, great.

01:18:19.542 --> 01:18:37.396
I want every person who is going to Mecca to stay at Trump Tower, because during the season you have somewhere like a million visitors every day that go to the Hodge.

01:18:37.396 --> 01:18:46.801
So if I can get all of those people into Trump Towers or Trump Hotels to pay and they're there then yeah.

01:18:46.801 --> 01:18:49.324
Of course, all I'm doing is providing a service.

01:18:52.466 --> 01:18:54.286
You don't see that as a conflict of interest?

01:18:54.286 --> 01:19:00.649
I mean we crushed, but yeah, but we crushed.

01:19:00.649 --> 01:19:04.467
Well, not we, but the media crushed Hunter Biden.

01:19:05.501 --> 01:19:26.212
They destroyed Hunter Biden there but, now it's okay, I'm gonna let you finish and I'll tell you why it's different the business deal, like even in the first administration, with ivanka trump being an official member of the the administration and still making you know real estate deals.

01:19:26.212 --> 01:19:29.385
I mean their net worth tripled during the first administration.

01:19:29.385 --> 01:19:31.911
Then you got all these other bills.

01:19:31.911 --> 01:19:38.953
I mean even to the point where they're using the meme coin to have a dinner with the president.

01:19:38.953 --> 01:19:46.568
Like none of that is concerned, like none of that bothers you, like none of that, like oh no, oh no, no no.

01:19:46.948 --> 01:19:48.283
It's clear conflict of interest.

01:19:48.283 --> 01:19:49.746
However, I will say this.

01:19:49.746 --> 01:19:55.541
There's an old saying a fool and his money are soon parted.

01:19:55.541 --> 01:20:20.854
If you want to go in and buy a meme coin based on trump, okay, mean, there are people that went in and and the Hoctaw girl did a coin Right, and so people went in and spent Thousands and tens of thousand dollars and then the next day it crashed because she dumped it all and said look, I just made three million dollars.

01:20:20.854 --> 01:20:23.805
It was legal, she could do it.

01:20:23.805 --> 01:20:44.786
So if, if people want to go in and they want to stay at trump towers or they want to do and the reason here's why I believe it's different than what happened with hunter biden the trump name and the trump brand was around long before trump got into politics and ran for president.

01:20:44.786 --> 01:20:56.109
Right, you had Trump Towers, you had Trump Champagne, trump University, and we're trying to set aside the fact that Trump University got sued.

01:20:56.911 --> 01:20:57.252
Yeah.

01:21:00.837 --> 01:21:03.548
All that stuff, but the Trump brand it got into politics.

01:21:03.548 --> 01:21:11.134
So is it necessarily the same when it's like that business just kept going while he was president?

01:21:11.134 --> 01:21:18.162
Now then you're supposed like what's always happened is allegedly it goes into the blind trust and blah, blah, blah.

01:21:18.162 --> 01:21:27.243
But we've also seen and we've spoken at length about Nancy Pelosi and other members of Congress taking advantage because there is no law against it.

01:21:27.243 --> 01:21:35.704
There is no law that says the president has to stop doing their business dealings while they're in office.

01:21:35.704 --> 01:21:37.930
So it's legal.

01:21:37.930 --> 01:21:52.543
So again, this goes back to the legislature should probably pass some laws for future consideration, right, um, but as far as, as far as conflict of interest, yes, should it happen?

01:21:52.543 --> 01:21:53.865
No, not necessarily.

01:21:53.865 --> 01:21:57.452
Is it as concerning as hunter biden?

01:21:57.452 --> 01:22:03.331
No, I think what hunter biden did was a flat out pay to play.

01:22:03.331 --> 01:22:09.430
That said, I don't think it was any different than what the clinton foundation did, hey wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.

01:22:09.872 --> 01:22:12.582
You think the hunter biden issue was pay to play.

01:22:12.582 --> 01:22:14.747
But trump's what trump is doing.

01:22:14.747 --> 01:22:19.029
They're literally buying meme coins for the opportunity to have dinner with the president.

01:22:19.029 --> 01:22:32.796
But that's not pay to play, but wait, who's who's buying them, the last three companies that are based, the last three companies who have the most stock in the meme coin are just having to coincidentally be in the countries that he just visited.

01:22:32.796 --> 01:22:37.688
So that's not even the least bit.

01:22:37.688 --> 01:22:40.385
You know eyebrow raising, that's just kind of you know.

01:22:40.385 --> 01:22:41.287
Business as usual.

01:22:42.161 --> 01:22:49.680
Oh, that's well, it's absolutely buying access as usual.

01:22:49.680 --> 01:22:50.623
Oh, that's well, it's absolutely buying access.

01:22:50.623 --> 01:22:51.064
And so the difference?

01:22:51.064 --> 01:22:56.962
Personally, I think the difference is when you're saying here's the public, we are doing this meme, anybody can buy it.

01:22:56.962 --> 01:22:59.667
I'm not going to control who buys it.

01:22:59.667 --> 01:23:16.787
Very specifically, versus I'm going to go to Ukraine and I'm on the board of a Ukraine energy company that I have no experience doing this and you're going to give me half a million dollars a year because my name is Hunter Biden.

01:23:16.787 --> 01:23:26.512
By the way, 10% of that is going directly to my father and if you need a meeting, I'm I'm concerned with all of it.

01:23:26.512 --> 01:23:29.440
It's the same thing, though the only difference.

01:23:30.564 --> 01:23:35.493
But the difference is again one is above board and one was sneaky as shit.

01:23:35.493 --> 01:23:41.210
It's all 30.

01:23:42.020 --> 01:23:48.686
It's okay to rob a person as long as you acknowledge and let them know that you're robbing them in public as opposed to doing it in private.

01:23:50.604 --> 01:23:57.649
If you walk up and you say hey man, are you a fan of Michael Jordan?

01:23:57.649 --> 01:24:04.868
Michael Jordan is in a restaurant and I will tell you where he is.

01:24:04.868 --> 01:24:08.144
If you give me 50 bucks, you go dude, I love Michael.

01:24:08.144 --> 01:24:10.291
Jordan Cool, here's 50 bucks.

01:24:10.291 --> 01:24:22.426
And you say he's in that restaurant right over there and you go in and there's Michael Jordan, but you're not getting near him because he's got his bodyguard there, right.

01:24:23.140 --> 01:24:23.423
Sure.

01:24:24.212 --> 01:24:24.859
And come out and go.

01:24:24.859 --> 01:24:26.609
Hey, what the freak dude.

01:24:26.609 --> 01:24:28.283
You told me Michael Jordan was in there.

01:24:29.707 --> 01:24:30.489
Yeah, Is he?

01:24:30.911 --> 01:24:33.604
Yeah Well, I gave you 50 bucks for that.

01:24:33.604 --> 01:24:37.828
Thank you, I appreciate that, but you said I could meet him.

01:24:37.828 --> 01:24:39.546
I said he was in the restaurant.

01:24:39.546 --> 01:24:42.568
You're the idiot who gave me 50 bucks.

01:24:42.568 --> 01:24:59.623
So there's a point where, again, if the Saudi Arabia let's say the Saudi companies was anything promised, whoever bought the most meme coin.

01:24:59.644 --> 01:25:00.829
what was promised if you bought the most meme coin?

01:25:00.829 --> 01:25:02.076
To have a sit-down dinner with the president.

01:25:02.076 --> 01:25:02.979
Right Come dinner with the president.

01:25:03.421 --> 01:25:03.662
Right.

01:25:03.662 --> 01:25:05.027
What is different than that?

01:25:05.027 --> 01:25:18.667
Then saying, if you come to this fundraiser for our, you come to our fundraiser and it's 10,000.

01:25:18.667 --> 01:25:20.744
Actually it could be.

01:25:20.744 --> 01:25:25.645
It's $5,000 a plate To come to this fundraiser.

01:25:25.645 --> 01:25:36.063
But if you go to our gold standard for $50,000 a plate, we only have five of those for $50,000 donation.

01:25:36.063 --> 01:25:42.574
At this plate, you get to sit down with Candidate X for 20 minutes.

01:25:42.574 --> 01:25:47.011
You know how many of those plates get sold All five of them.

01:25:47.761 --> 01:25:51.190
No, candidate X is absolutely different.

01:25:51.190 --> 01:25:54.628
Depending blurring scales I got you.

01:25:54.628 --> 01:26:07.824
But we are talking about the sitting president of the United States advertising a dinner with him for whoever invests the most in his meme coin and we're saying that's completely okay because we know about it.

01:26:07.824 --> 01:26:15.546
But Hunter Biden being put on the board because of nepotism is absolutely and objectively illegal and wrong.

01:26:16.609 --> 01:26:18.432
Well, it is objectively illegal and wrong.

01:26:18.432 --> 01:26:31.530
And what I'm saying is, it's not that the meme coin is okay, I think it's shady as hell, but again, that's why Congress needs to come in and fix this crap.

01:26:31.530 --> 01:26:34.213
It's all stupid, it's all ridiculous.

01:26:34.213 --> 01:26:36.475
Okay, let's back up a minute.

01:26:36.475 --> 01:26:42.543
Let's go even further, let's really go back historically.

01:26:42.543 --> 01:26:47.412
You or I, probably me more than you for historical reasons.

01:26:47.431 --> 01:26:49.975
Yeah, it depends on how far back we go in history, how far back we go.

01:26:51.581 --> 01:26:59.095
I could have walked up to the White House during Abraham Lincoln and knocked on the door and said I would like to set an appointment.

01:26:59.095 --> 01:27:03.944
I would really like to speak to Mr Lincoln, I would like five minutes.

01:27:03.944 --> 01:27:17.451
I drove, I got on my horse, I came up here from Georgia and I'm going to only be in town for a couple of days and I would really like to speak with Mr Lincoln for five minutes.

01:27:17.451 --> 01:27:19.115
Is there any way I can do that?

01:27:19.115 --> 01:27:22.163
And the secretary maybe looks at the schedule?

01:27:22.163 --> 01:27:24.408
Whoever, you know it's pretty tough.

01:27:24.408 --> 01:27:26.671
You know, maybe Mr Lincoln could fit in.

01:27:26.671 --> 01:27:28.881
Could you be here Now?

01:27:28.881 --> 01:27:37.435
You, if you go knock on the door during President, well, first of all, you're not going to be able to knock on the door during President Lincoln's term.

01:27:38.623 --> 01:27:47.228
I'd be out of touch and then fast forward to Obama, and even Obama, like you couldn't get up and knock on the door, you would have been tackled right, right, anybody for to Obama, and even Obama, like you couldn't get up and knock on the door, you would have been tackled Right, you know right.

01:27:47.228 --> 01:27:47.542
So anybody, anybody.

01:27:47.542 --> 01:27:53.719
But that's my point is it used to be that you could go in and you could actually have these conversations with anybody.

01:27:53.719 --> 01:28:05.886
So I would love, honestly, I would love a journalist to next time President Trump is is doing a press conference to say to him.

01:28:05.886 --> 01:28:13.126
So, president Trump, I'm really curious if you could explain to me.

01:28:13.126 --> 01:28:15.411
Maybe Peter Doocy will do it, I don't know.

01:28:15.411 --> 01:28:21.641
He seems to like to stir things up and I like how he does it, mr President, for four years or longer.

01:28:21.662 --> 01:28:37.427
So for four years or longer we heard that Hunter Biden was getting payments from Ukraine to be on the board, because, you know, at that point Trump's like oh yeah, let's go, let's nail him, and.

01:28:37.427 --> 01:28:47.332
And then in China, and he was put on boards and there was there was a lot of people believe some fairly serious graft involved.

01:28:47.332 --> 01:28:49.912
That was going to the former president Biden.

01:28:49.912 --> 01:29:03.918
And my question to you is can you explain why that is not the case with something like the Trump meme coin, when the highest bidder for that is given direct access to you, sir?

01:29:03.918 --> 01:29:09.822
And how is that not pay to play?

01:29:09.822 --> 01:29:14.472
If somebody gives you a certain amount of money, does that mean you are going to sit down, regardless of who it is?

01:29:23.590 --> 01:29:46.963
If it's a terrorist, if Hamas had come up, is affiliated with the terrorists in Yemen, if Iran had given $5 million to purchase in meme coin or whatever the number was, and you were going to sit down with Ahmed from Yemen, would that have been okay?

01:29:46.963 --> 01:29:48.145
How is that any different, sir?

01:29:48.145 --> 01:29:50.247
I'd love for that question.

01:29:50.247 --> 01:29:54.350
I think Trump would start going time's up.

01:29:54.989 --> 01:30:01.354
I don't think we, yeah, hey, let me, let me get my callister out here.

01:30:02.034 --> 01:30:02.855
Yeah, I can't answer.

01:30:02.855 --> 01:30:03.497
My time's up.

01:30:03.497 --> 01:30:04.577
I can't answer.

01:30:08.300 --> 01:30:08.740
That's a great Peter.

01:30:08.740 --> 01:30:09.101
I really't answer.

01:30:09.101 --> 01:30:09.662
My time's up, I can't answer.

01:30:09.662 --> 01:30:10.082
That's a great Peter.

01:30:10.082 --> 01:30:16.456
I really appreciate that question and oh, oh oh, I'm being told by the Secret Service that there's a bomb in the building and we need to evacuate immediately.

01:30:18.925 --> 01:30:19.806
So I got to go.

01:30:19.806 --> 01:30:22.252
All right, man, that was fun.

01:30:22.252 --> 01:30:23.667
We are at 90 minutes.

01:30:23.707 --> 01:30:25.239
my brother let's go ahead and get to the final.

01:30:25.239 --> 01:30:27.386
I want to hear what you were going to hit me with.

01:30:28.060 --> 01:30:28.943
We're going to talk about.

01:30:28.943 --> 01:30:35.925
We're going to talk about the Biden cognitive decline, but then the but.

01:30:35.925 --> 01:30:42.855
Then Trump is kind of showing the same symptoms that Biden did at the beginning of his, of his administration.

01:30:43.220 --> 01:30:43.881
I'm showing.

01:30:43.881 --> 01:30:45.483
I'm showing the same symptoms.

01:30:46.043 --> 01:30:49.146
So well, it depends I don't know.

01:30:49.146 --> 01:30:50.729
You got 15 minutes in you.

01:30:50.729 --> 01:30:55.354
I know we on the screen, oh yeah, so here we go, all right.

01:30:55.354 --> 01:30:57.256
So let's run through this real quick, all right.

01:30:57.256 --> 01:31:06.305
So the book came out right and it talked about how, toward the end of the administration, biden was just a shell of himself, and we all saw it.

01:31:06.305 --> 01:31:09.487
We know we were lied to.

01:31:10.341 --> 01:31:11.704
We're talking about the Jake Tapper book.

01:31:11.704 --> 01:31:16.154
Yeah, we know the true graft of this whole thing.

01:31:16.559 --> 01:31:25.969
Yeah, I mean, but anybody with two eyes kind of saw that Biden he was like everybody's grandpa he had good days and some not so good.

01:31:25.969 --> 01:31:27.984
Yeah, and it happened.

01:31:27.984 --> 01:31:35.724
But one of the things that came up was talking about POTUS showing the same signs.

01:31:35.724 --> 01:31:41.253
They did a side by side with Biden in 2020 when he first got in the office.

01:31:41.253 --> 01:31:55.087
How it started, with just little minor slips and losing you know, losing his thought process during speeches and that sort of thing and then it progressively got worse to making up stories and events and stuff that he'd never been into.

01:31:55.087 --> 01:31:59.886
And they were showing a side by side of POTUS progressively getting worse.

01:31:59.947 --> 01:32:05.523
And they're saying this is where the new POTUS is now and he's following a similar trajectory.

01:32:05.523 --> 01:32:18.034
However, comma the, obviously the reporting is completely different, so I wanted to bring that to your attention and say how do you feel about it, knowing that we're on a similar trajectory?

01:32:18.034 --> 01:32:19.577
It's just a different side of the coin.

01:32:19.577 --> 01:32:21.359
I don't think the.

01:32:21.359 --> 01:32:33.845
I think the Trump administration is going to do the exact same thing that the Biden administration did they're going to try to hide as much of his weaknesses as they can and present him in a position of strength.

01:32:33.845 --> 01:32:38.484
Let me see if I got it.

01:32:39.546 --> 01:32:40.429
You're right.

01:32:40.429 --> 01:32:45.746
Here's what I will say.

01:32:45.746 --> 01:32:47.324
This is not a new thing.

01:32:47.324 --> 01:32:59.170
Franklin Delano Roosevelt was basically paralyzed from polio as a child and was in a wheelchair as an adult and as president.

01:32:59.329 --> 01:33:00.934
About they dropped him up.

01:33:01.899 --> 01:33:03.378
They dropped him and they dropped him up.

01:33:03.378 --> 01:33:11.689
He was in a wheelchair about 99.5% of the time that he was president and the 0.1% that he wasn't.

01:33:11.689 --> 01:33:18.365
They put braces on him while he was giving speeches so he looked like he was not in a wheelchair.

01:33:18.365 --> 01:33:29.694
Now that is not to say that a cognitive decline is the same as a physical decline, but Kennedy had massive physical problems that they did.

01:33:29.694 --> 01:33:43.099
You know, reagan was starting to show decline at the end and by the time he was out of office I believe a year and a half by the time he was out of office that they went yeah, he's in full-on Alzheimer's.

01:33:43.099 --> 01:33:49.552
So you don't generally go full-on Alzheimer's in a matter of just a couple of weeks.

01:33:49.672 --> 01:33:49.873
Right.

01:33:49.960 --> 01:34:03.716
It's generally a pretty good onset and I saw something that said Trump right now is the same age as Biden was when he at the same point Right at the same point right.

01:34:04.497 --> 01:34:23.703
So 120 days into the Trump presidency and he's the same age as Biden was 120 days in I agree that the media will be much more harsh towards anything Trump says or does.

01:34:23.703 --> 01:34:26.507
That may point towards mental decline.

01:34:26.507 --> 01:34:31.168
I think that's obvious, just the way the media works and the way they are.

01:34:31.168 --> 01:34:37.010
I think the Trump administration will, of course, do the same thing that the Biden administration did.

01:34:37.010 --> 01:34:56.172
I just think it's going to be a lot harder for the Trump administration to hide any serious decline by Trump, because A Trump doesn't seem like the type of person who allows himself to be handled right.

01:34:56.172 --> 01:35:00.811
Trump is more that you stick a microphone in Trump's face and he's going to be like.

01:35:00.811 --> 01:35:01.965
This is what I think.

01:35:01.965 --> 01:35:10.354
I don't think you're going to see the Easter Bunny anytime soon coming over and wrangling President Trump.

01:35:20.847 --> 01:35:21.529
Okay, decline.

01:35:21.529 --> 01:35:23.350
I would hope.

01:35:23.350 --> 01:35:52.505
I would hope that Trump's family and the leaders of the administration, such as the vice president, if they see the decline that warrants serious like hey, no, kidding, this is something we I would for the party I would hope that they would say we don't want to.

01:35:52.505 --> 01:35:53.368
We're going to lose.

01:35:53.368 --> 01:36:04.487
It doesn't matter who it is, we're going to lose in 2028 if it looks like we're covering up Trump the way that the Dems covered up Biden.

01:36:04.487 --> 01:36:06.135
We need to learn from that.

01:36:06.135 --> 01:36:07.119
So year up Biden, we need to learn from that.

01:36:07.119 --> 01:36:12.801
So year one we're going to, because remember it's early, so the end of year one.

01:36:13.644 --> 01:36:20.427
I think they need to go in and do a no kidding like real, a real honest cognitive assessment.

01:36:20.427 --> 01:36:22.947
Okay, not the White House guy.

01:36:23.842 --> 01:36:27.119
I want I was going to say you know, yeah, you know, you know his doctors are going to do it.

01:36:27.119 --> 01:36:30.105
He's the best.

01:36:30.145 --> 01:36:31.548
He's the best.

01:36:31.548 --> 01:36:32.270
Yes, he's not.

01:36:32.270 --> 01:36:35.802
He's not obese, he's perfectly slim for his weight.

01:36:35.802 --> 01:36:42.595
Ok, I want, like I want, the most hardcore leftist psychologist there is.

01:36:42.595 --> 01:37:01.314
I want them calling up oh, I'm dead serious, I want, I want whoever the most vicious leftist, uh, clinical psychiatrist there is, and for them to fly that person in, so it.

01:37:01.314 --> 01:37:36.680
So if that person goes in and goes you know, I think he's okay, I don't know or if he goes, hey, this guy, forget the politics, this guy is legitimately losing his confidence Then the White House has to take that seriously, and I think that's the way to avoid having a Biden 2.0.

01:37:36.680 --> 01:37:37.903
And you have to have the cabinet.

01:37:37.903 --> 01:37:59.431
I think again, though, the difference here is that Trump loves the camera and the spotlight, and he is not going to, I don't think, even cognitive decline, trump, I don't think that changes your personality, because you saw times when Biden, angry Biden, came.

01:37:59.431 --> 01:38:04.752
Joe Biden is a very angry person, I don't care, you see it.

01:38:04.752 --> 01:38:05.823
Yeah, you saw Grandpa Biden.

01:38:05.823 --> 01:38:06.466
You saw Grandpa Biden.

01:38:08.979 --> 01:38:09.643
You saw, grandpa?

01:38:09.682 --> 01:38:19.530
Joe quite a bit, but you've seen, but here's the thing Go back to 1994 when he was talking about the crime bill.

01:38:19.530 --> 01:38:24.106
Oh, these people, they're the ones that are going to ruin our country.

01:38:24.106 --> 01:38:26.243
Grandpa Joe's been around.

01:38:26.243 --> 01:38:29.192
Angry Joe's been around for a long, long time.

01:38:29.720 --> 01:38:32.287
Well, to be fair.

01:38:32.507 --> 01:38:38.287
Some people speak by the cognitive decline.

01:38:38.287 --> 01:38:42.293
I think you see things in personality that stay right.

01:38:42.293 --> 01:38:43.194
Absolutely.

01:38:43.194 --> 01:38:45.974
What I mean by that is narcissistic spotlight.

01:38:45.974 --> 01:38:54.863
Trump is going to stay around yeah, so absolutely, even if he starts to decline and they're like, hey, uh, come with me, mr president.

01:38:54.863 --> 01:38:57.670
He's gonna be like oh, hey, what's up man?

01:38:57.670 --> 01:39:00.154
Do see hit me with your best one what's up?

01:39:00.359 --> 01:39:03.645
you know I'm huge, I got, I got the greatest.

01:39:03.645 --> 01:39:05.426
I mean there's.

01:39:05.426 --> 01:39:09.252
There's things that Trump does that are like are you?

01:39:09.252 --> 01:39:11.815
Are you crazy, or are you crazy like a fox?

01:39:11.815 --> 01:39:17.423
He's also 79 years old, is that?

01:39:17.423 --> 01:39:21.266
Is that right, 79.

01:39:21.266 --> 01:39:33.961
I've seen less mental decline in my 85 year old mother than I saw in Biden, but I have.

01:39:33.961 --> 01:39:36.262
But my mom has declined.

01:39:36.262 --> 01:39:50.936
She's 85 years old, is not running arguably the most pressure-filled position in the world.

01:39:50.936 --> 01:40:05.561
I'm not sure there is a more difficult job than the president of the United States of America, because if you're the king of England, what are you doing Do?

01:40:05.722 --> 01:40:07.362
you think King Charles is real.

01:40:07.362 --> 01:40:15.469
He works as hard as he wants and if he doesn't want to, he's like I'll send somebody else, what do I care, I'll send one of the princes, I'll send whoever to go and cover.

01:40:15.469 --> 01:40:22.930
Realistically, being in charge of the UK is not nearly as difficult as America.

01:40:22.930 --> 01:40:34.926
Maybe the premier of China, President Xi, simply because of the sheer numbers involved and the pressure.

01:40:34.926 --> 01:40:39.944
But at the same time, he's a dictator to the point where he can say you know, trump can't do this.

01:40:39.944 --> 01:41:09.226
Trump can't say you know what I don't like how SCOTUS is ruled, so why don't you all just go and arrest Sotomayor, or just have her go on vacation, and whoever and whoever right, he can't go out and say those seven justices that just ruled against me, I don't know about them, I think they need to be replaced.

01:41:09.226 --> 01:41:10.604
So I'm going to replace them.

01:41:10.604 --> 01:41:13.567
President Xi could do that.

01:41:13.567 --> 01:41:15.262
Did you notice?

01:41:15.382 --> 01:41:25.952
The founder of Alibaba disappeared for almost a year, yeah, and he came back and suddenly was singing all the praises of China and how great China was.

01:41:25.952 --> 01:41:27.826
What happened to that dude?

01:41:27.826 --> 01:41:30.203
We all know.

01:41:30.203 --> 01:41:31.890
Right, he went on vacation.

01:41:31.890 --> 01:41:40.613
He went on vacation, yes, to a little camp right next door to the Muslims that are all up there working on iPhones.

01:41:40.613 --> 01:41:46.948
So Trump can't do that right.

01:41:46.948 --> 01:41:48.426
Trump's got to deal with a lot of this.

01:41:48.426 --> 01:41:52.068
So to have a 78, 79-year-old individual.

01:41:52.068 --> 01:41:59.265
You saw I think you've seen every president pretty much go through this.

01:41:59.265 --> 01:42:03.690
George Bush, when he came in office, looked very different than eight years later.

01:42:03.690 --> 01:42:05.701
Barack Obama looked very different than different than eight years later.

01:42:05.701 --> 01:42:07.239
Barack Obama looked very different than he did eight years later.

01:42:07.239 --> 01:42:17.068
Those guys, those weren't eight years of getting a little bit older, those were eight years of the most hardcore.

01:42:17.068 --> 01:42:32.792
You know, when you see that 35 year old person on the side of the road that's holding up the sign and and they have they've been addicted, they've lived on the streets, they've struggled their entire life.

01:42:33.301 --> 01:42:37.211
Or you go to the gas station hey, can you, can you loan me five bucks?

01:42:37.211 --> 01:42:38.421
And you're like, how old are you?

01:42:38.421 --> 01:42:39.805
I'm 35.

01:42:39.805 --> 01:42:42.752
You're like, oh my gosh, that's the hardest 35 I've ever seen.

01:42:42.752 --> 01:42:45.628
And we, that's what the presidency does to you.

01:42:45.628 --> 01:42:51.693
The presidency ages you like nothing else.

01:42:51.693 --> 01:43:23.685
And so if Trump and this is why, to me, the easy argument when people criticize Trump for going golfing the Trump administration should be like hey, if he doesn't, he's going to be worn down you can say he goes golfing every single day and he's out there for three hours every single day, because the other eight not even that three hours a day, because the other 21 hours a day he is in the toughest job in the world.

01:43:25.244 --> 01:43:33.172
Keep in mind that started with obama, with the golfing and they, they have right right and of course, but yeah, I agree, it's like dude.

01:43:33.172 --> 01:43:35.305
It's like dude, real leader of the free world.

01:43:35.807 --> 01:43:54.662
You deserve to have some time to unwind yeah, yeah and and the whole thing with like, um, you know, I I still remember criticizing obama for stuff like he's flying to hawaii and it's going to cost five million dollars to fly him to hawaii for for a week and the vacation.

01:43:54.662 --> 01:44:00.913
And it's not the criticism of five million dollars, it's because why?

01:44:00.974 --> 01:44:02.100
does it cost that much like?

01:44:02.721 --> 01:44:04.265
like we've talked about this parade.

01:44:04.265 --> 01:44:08.891
Why is this, this military, the army, the army birthday?

01:44:08.891 --> 01:44:11.743
They're talking about 50 to a hundred million dollars.

01:44:11.743 --> 01:44:21.641
Why You're not paying the soldiers that unless you're saying, hey, every single soldier that is going to be marked, that's part of their pay, they're getting paid either way I mean they're.

01:44:21.641 --> 01:44:23.869
They're on active duty man National guard.

01:44:23.869 --> 01:44:30.685
You're going to bring the National Guard Guess what?

01:44:30.685 --> 01:44:32.591
Anybody that participates at that's reserved for National Guard.

01:44:32.610 --> 01:44:35.118
They're doing it for AT they were going to be doing AT or drill anyway, so it's not.

01:44:35.118 --> 01:44:38.122
Yeah, so if Trump goes out, he goes golfing.

01:44:38.122 --> 01:44:48.154
It's the same thing that I used to say about Bush, about W In this term.

01:44:48.154 --> 01:44:53.823
The president is in charge, but he's not running everything.

01:44:53.823 --> 01:45:00.302
I don't think there's a single person that can run the United States.

01:45:00.302 --> 01:45:01.604
You just can't do it.

01:45:01.604 --> 01:45:04.168
He's got how many cabinet members?

01:45:04.168 --> 01:45:18.506
And they all have deputy head cabinet members, and then they all have senior officials under them, and they all have senior officials under them, and they all have senior officials under them, and then they all have junior, and then they have staff and blah, blah, blah, blah blah.

01:45:18.881 --> 01:45:19.462
There's a reason.

01:45:19.462 --> 01:45:20.266
There's what?

01:45:20.266 --> 01:45:22.807
How many federal jobs?

01:45:22.807 --> 01:45:25.807
I mean how many millions of people are in federal jobs?

01:45:25.807 --> 01:45:30.108
A lot Do I think there's too many people in federal jobs.

01:45:30.108 --> 01:45:51.412
Yes because I think the government should GTFO just get out of the way declines at the same rate as President Biden, then I will be the same person saying that 20,.

01:45:51.412 --> 01:45:53.984
Is it 24th or 25th?

01:45:54.024 --> 01:46:19.893
Amendment 25th 25th 25th that the cabinet needs to gather, and if they feel like he is cognitively impaired to the point that he cannot be present anymore, then they need to have the, as we say in the Army, the intestinal fortitude to make the right choice, will they?

01:46:19.893 --> 01:46:21.327
Probably not?

01:46:22.436 --> 01:46:23.000
Of course not.

01:46:23.000 --> 01:46:24.863
I think that's a perfect ending spot.

01:46:25.564 --> 01:46:27.028
We are good man you good.

01:46:28.291 --> 01:46:28.712
Oh, I'm always good.

01:46:28.712 --> 01:46:30.073
Let's get it, man.

01:46:30.073 --> 01:46:32.247
Same bedtime, same bed channel next week.

01:46:32.247 --> 01:46:34.024
We will talk to you guys later.

01:46:34.868 --> 01:46:37.003
The banner is up, who knows?

01:46:37.564 --> 01:46:38.427
That's the plan.

01:46:38.427 --> 01:46:39.831
Talk to you, guys, we out.

01:46:43.100 --> 01:46:45.085
Chief man, what do you want to do tonight?

01:46:45.686 --> 01:46:47.451
The same thing we do every night.

01:46:47.511 --> 01:46:52.645
Pinky, Try to take over the world.

01:46:52.645 --> 01:46:54.609
All right, yo let's get into it.

01:46:54.609 --> 01:46:56.332
Try to take over the world.

01:46:58.539 --> 01:46:59.384
You're preaching freedom.

01:46:59.384 --> 01:47:05.064
Try to take over the world For Andrew.

01:47:05.083 --> 01:47:06.087
He's chaplain in the world.

01:47:06.087 --> 01:47:07.984
Mr Lampanil, take over the world.
