0:16

Actually interesting. We're just talking about the state

0:18

of California might go all masks. The governor

0:21

is considering a mask mandatory for the whole

0:23

state. Um uh, there

0:26

towns in Arizona that through

0:28

this whole thing mass current

0:30

required. Now they're going to be required. And

0:33

for the crowd out there that refuses to our masks

0:35

or feel it's like some sort of attempt by the governor

0:37

the government to control you. I

0:40

don't know how that's gonna go. We just got this text

0:42

after we were talking about it. I would quit my job if

0:44

a mask were required rather

0:47

than wear I'm a mask. So we'll

0:50

see. I think it's gonna be

0:52

become more common as we get further

0:54

into the summer than it was two

0:56

months ago when we were all scared. What I'm

0:59

just sick of just conflict,

1:01

people yelling at each other and tweeting

1:04

in the rest of it. I just have had enough, you

1:06

know, how about a little agreement. I

1:09

just wanna I think the great

1:11

question of history is what we're going to figure

1:13

out because this is all new. Um,

1:16

when people say, Okay, that's enough, I can't take it,

1:18

that's too much, do they just stop

1:20

paying attention to stuff? And

1:24

the forces of evil roll over us,

1:27

um the extremists, or

1:30

do we somehow get back some sense

1:33

of normal?

1:36

Yeah, interesting question. I

1:39

guess we will off find. We will find

1:41

out, we will find going together. Speaking of conflict

1:43

and that sort of thing. You remember, Gone with the Wind

1:45

removed from HBO Max or whatever

1:47

that streaming services because

1:49

of its racist portrayal. Blah blah blah.

1:52

I'm increasingly thinking that was a publicity

1:54

stunt. But Variety, I've never

1:56

seen Gone with the Wind. I don't think. I have never

1:58

seen it end, and I've seen chunks of it here and there, and

2:00

I probably should I didn't realize it's the biggest

2:02

grossing movie of all time adjusted for inflation.

2:05

It's fine, it's fine. It

2:08

had a couple of giant stars. It was

2:10

an epic, the rest of it. But I haven't

2:12

seen it. But variety,

2:14

which is the Bible of Hollywood? Are

2:16

there any car chases and Gone with willyne carriage

2:20

chase? Variety?

2:24

Where was the Bible? Is

2:27

that? No? Not not the literal Bible.

2:29

It's the Bible of Hollywood. Is

2:31

that? With ten other problematic

2:34

films that could use warning labels,

2:37

don't dare watch these films until

2:39

we name them stay

2:41

with us. So we got a presidential election

2:43

coming up. Interesting situation. I

2:47

had a nerd where the guy running against Trump

2:49

is leading in the polls without like

2:51

having press conferences, without going out and

2:53

rallying, without really doing much um

2:57

uh. And there there's there's some belief. I

3:00

think it's absolutely true that they feel

3:02

like the less he has seen, the better for

3:05

his candidacy. The Biden

3:08

of two thousand probably

3:11

could beat Donald Trump in the election.

3:14

Ken the Biden of two thousand twenty. And

3:16

if people don't see them in their mind, they're

3:18

thinking Joe Biden from years ago. But

3:21

if they see him now, they think, oh jeez,

3:23

he's not that Joe Biden I remember, or

3:25

if they hear him anyway, here's a little of him

3:28

coming out yesterday to speak to the world American.

3:30

He's a president who

3:32

will do the work. I'm

3:37

ready in day one after more than three years

3:39

in office. Why isn't Donald Trump ready?

3:43

Mr? President? Wake

3:45

up, get

3:49

to work. There's

3:51

so much more to be done. Thank

3:57

you, Holy

4:00

can't. What's the visual on that, Sean? Have you

4:02

seen it? Well? He kind

4:04

of holds, so he finishes. I

4:06

don't think you can be overstated that that was the end

4:08

of the speech. Right, It's supposed to be very clear when you're

4:10

done, and then if you're speaking in front of a friendly crowd, that kind

4:12

of clap. But he kind of petered off there, thank

4:15

you as he lifted up his his notes and kind

4:17

of signaled to the crowd with that's it and started

4:19

walking away, and then kind of a slow clap started

4:23

coming from the crowd. So I just glad to hear he could

4:25

lift his notes because it sounded like, you know, he

4:27

was too weak actually get

4:29

the air born. Nobody else could figure out that was

4:31

the end of the speech either until he was leaving the podium.

4:34

I didn't hear a goose. So that's good. That's a step

4:36

forward. You know what they are winnow

4:38

and they're they're yeah, exactly,

4:40

they're sharpening their game. I

4:44

mentioned this earlier this morning, and I particularly

4:46

we particularly liked this little ending part thank

4:50

you. That is the weakest

4:53

thank you I've ever heard. I am serious.

4:56

I hear that, and I have this animal

4:58

reaction that that is one

5:00

of my species about to die. I

5:04

have a concerned I think,

5:06

oh, he does not sound good. Probably

5:08

got to gather the family. I'm serious,

5:10

he sounds terrible. I heard

5:12

a different part of the speech on NPR. Obviously

5:14

they weren't gonna highlight that, but I heard a different partner

5:17

speech on NPR, and um

5:19

uh, I thought he must have a cold

5:22

or something because he sounds ill, sounds

5:24

sick like his voice is a little more or

5:27

off for a little more air than

5:29

usual. Now, there was talking earlier

5:31

of a previous political thank you that

5:34

had current, that had help until that

5:36

time held the belt

5:38

for weakest thank you? Um

5:40

do we want to compare Joe's

5:43

with us today? Joe? Where are you? Where

5:45

is Joe? Joe here with us today? Joe?

5:49

I thought you were here today.

5:54

All right, well you're all Joe the blammer,

5:56

So I'll have your stand up and say

5:59

I thank you. Oh

6:03

boy, that went poorly. That

6:05

was more. That

6:08

was more emotional death

6:10

than physical. Oh

6:13

you think he was was embarrassed and piste

6:15

off at his staffers or just realized

6:17

I'm not gonna win. I'm I'm not gonna be

6:19

president. That's what that thank you was. Okay,

6:22

that was an emotional Physically

6:25

he's still you know he was. That

6:27

was the will to live as opposed to

6:30

his life force, which is Biden's

6:33

that was the election. Can't get enough.

6:36

There's a lot of political speech that's crap,

6:38

and it appeals to the emotions and

6:41

it's it's nonsense. I'm

6:43

much more into policy than falling

6:46

in love with a candidate. On the other

6:48

hand, and stylistic flourishes,

6:51

right, yeah. On the other hand, if

6:54

Joe Biden had said those same

6:56

words in a voice

6:59

that suggested, did I'm not going

7:01

to be dead tomorrow, in a voice that suggested

7:03

I have energy, I'm intent, I'm serious

7:06

about this stuff, Mr President. After

7:08

three years, you're still not ready. There's

7:10

work to be done. Get to work. Thank

7:13

you, We thanks everybody, thank you. But

7:15

no, he sounds like he's dying. The

7:20

only thing I think is the only

7:22

thing that would explain it would be if

7:25

you're right that there they're feeling

7:28

is we need to be really calm and steady as

7:30

just the polar opposite of

7:33

of frenetic craziness.

7:35

We can bore the electorate in our way

7:38

to the White House. And maybe he just overdid

7:40

it, or if you're right about he was

7:42

sick. He had a throat thing going and he

7:45

was going for quiet, and it just choked off

7:47

completely. You know, sometimes you're worn out. We we

7:49

did uh we didn't add or something

7:52

a couple of months back and then the hands

7:54

in, our executive producer, brought it to us and said, I

7:56

didn't air this. You want to take a look at this, and then he played

7:58

it back force and it was real a low energy.

8:00

It was like, I don't know if we're both tired or

8:02

distracted or whatever, but it's like, come to Jones

8:05

plymouth or whatever is and

8:07

and so you know, maybe he wouldn't buy a

8:09

plymouth from from Jones with your money.

8:13

Maybe he was just in one of those moods. But because

8:17

it can happen to anybody, and we're where we're robusters

8:19

can be. I can live a hundred pounds clear over my head, um,

8:22

not even break a sweat. Uh Yeah,

8:24

but that's that's that's troubling. That's

8:27

troubling. I'm telling you what. If I'm the Trump

8:29

campaign, I'm getting a hold of that, man, I'm running

8:31

that all over and over. And

8:33

we mock regularly the whole idea of veep steaks,

8:36

which is always overblown. Who gets chosen

8:38

to be the vice president? Who freaking cares,

8:40

and then then that it has almost no effect on anybody's

8:43

a three point bumping his whole state of New

8:45

Hamps. I've never known a single person that votes

8:47

for the president based on who their vice presidential

8:49

choices could be. The exceptions could be the exception

8:52

if you think one, there's

8:54

no way he does two terms, and

8:56

two I don't think he can last

8:58

four years. His personal physician

9:01

has declared him, oh fittig one

9:03

foot in the grave. I

9:06

don't want yeah, yeah, the vat matters. Are you kidding?

9:09

He does not sound like a man who will be alive

9:11

in four years. I don't want to get too dark. But

9:13

if me neither. If that's if

9:16

that's Grandpa saying albeit

9:18

at your graduation in the spring, and

9:20

he sounds like that, you think, I hope so

9:22

right right? Yeah, that's

9:25

not dark. That's just human concern.

9:28

Yeah, wake up, thank

9:31

you, wake up, thank

9:33

you. I'm

9:36

telling you that has an emotional

9:38

reaction. It causes It causes

9:41

me to think, oh, he's he's blacks

9:43

a little bozzas

9:47

say, so you

9:49

should you should? You can't watch Gone with the

9:51

Wind on one streaming

9:54

service that I think was going for a policy and I think

9:56

it's back up now with the disclaimer at all.

9:59

My God, slaves aren't actually

10:01

happy being slaves. Thank you

10:03

for watching, Honey, did you hear about this? Turns

10:06

out there unhappy? Ten

10:08

other problematic films that could use a

10:10

warning label Stay with us

10:31

The Armstrong and Jetty Show. I'm

10:36

the Scared of the Virus guy now, I and

10:38

just I think looking

10:40

at this, Florida has all the markings can become next

10:43

coronavirus epicenter? What's

10:45

going on in Arizona? About

10:47

it? And I've heard so many predictions, you know, wait

10:50

till two weeks from now. I'm often

10:54

it doesn't happen. Sometimes it doesn't. I

10:56

hope I'm wrong. Yeah, I want

10:58

to be wrong deeply. Mm hmm. Also

11:04

here's your headline. Judge rules

11:06

in favor of squatter illegally

11:09

occupying house. If you'd

11:11

like your head to explode, stay tuned for that, sorrow

11:13

boy, the more laws, the less justice.

11:16

You know? Who said that? Do you tell

11:19

me? Because I don't remember John Wayne's

11:21

exactly John Wayne and Mark

11:24

Twain or Liel Wayne, Bruce

11:26

Wayne. I can't remember Alex Baldiley.

11:30

Actually it may have been Plato.

11:34

One more headline. We haven't mentioned while that. There's

11:37

one more headline, folks, Marcus Cerrio,

11:39

Marcus Sirius Cicero.

11:44

That goes back to Cicero. Yeah,

11:46

the more laws, the less justice. Wow, that's really interesting.

11:49

Yeah, the government governs best, which governs the least.

11:52

They wouldn't have had two percent of

11:54

the laws we have in modern society. Um,

11:57

top that shot the dude in the back and Atlanta the

12:00

parking lot at the Wendy's eleven counts

12:02

could face the death penalty and

12:04

the charges yesterday. So that's where that

12:06

is. Yep, I maintained

12:08

they are overcharging him to keep calm

12:11

in the streets, relative calm,

12:13

and you will see some of those charges

12:16

fall away in the coming weeks. But we'll

12:18

we'll find out. So this,

12:20

Uh, the folks at Variety are writing about

12:23

Gone with the Wind getting yank from the HBO service,

12:26

so you would hear that the HBO service exists,

12:28

in my opinion, And they

12:30

go into other films that are racist

12:33

of course, Birth of a Nation, Song

12:35

of the South, but the range of problematic

12:37

films is wide, including Breakfast at Tiffany's.

12:40

Mackey really stereotyped role as a Japanese

12:43

man is appalling there right West

12:45

Side Story, Puerto Ricans are almost

12:47

only shown as gang members. Now,

12:50

Birth of a Nation. There's nobody

12:52

that doesn't watch that at this point, is

12:54

like, and it's

12:56

just a drama, historical artifice,

13:00

right, it's a it's a it's something you're it's

13:02

a look at a different time, right, And

13:05

and racism in the same way. Uh,

13:07

you watch what's the Lenny Reef

13:09

install, the movie about Hitler's eyes Um

13:13

Triumph of the Will. I mean you don't

13:15

watch that thinking, Hey, I heard it's a documentary

13:17

about Germany. No, everybody knows

13:19

what it is. Moving

13:22

along the nineteen you

13:24

seen Breakfast at Tiffany's and Mickey Rooney's.

13:27

It's terrible, it's pretty over the top. But

13:30

so what But what are they claiming it should come with? Because

13:32

that's a great movie, Breakfast Tiffany. I like watching

13:34

the westerns from like the forties, fifties,

13:36

sixties where all the Indians were just Italian guys

13:40

or somewhat olive skin.

13:42

But are they talking about pulling Breakfast with Tiffany's?

13:45

Well, no problematic,

13:47

okay, but what do you and how about if

13:49

you're gonna start putting disclaimers on Gone with

13:51

the Wind. Here's some other movies that

13:54

might deserve disclaimers. Exact,

13:56

the disclaimers say, Mickey

13:59

Rooney has a crazy racist

14:01

role as a Japanese guy, and we don't approve

14:04

and it here's the movie. How

14:06

about seventy five slave owner

14:08

drama Man Dingo jaw

14:10

dropping and apparently aimed at a KKK

14:13

demographic, writes Variety

14:15

dot com. Let's

14:17

see, but those are not even the ten films

14:19

that need to be presented with disclaimers and discussions

14:22

before and after a screening. Oh,

14:24

that's gonna make movie watching fun. Yeah,

14:27

And and many of these movies are completely

14:30

iconic ones. Dirty

14:32

Harry, I've seen it

14:34

multiple times. Remember started a craze for

14:36

movies about Maverick cops who get the job done

14:39

followed by their following their instincts rather

14:41

than the law. Oh, they say it's a problem from a

14:43

cops standpoint, them liberal

14:45

judges and do gooders, and the villain

14:47

claims police brutality, planting the seed

14:50

that other such charges are fake moves

14:52

to get sympathy. Yeah, it's interesting those movies,

14:54

the Dirty Harry movies, and what was the Charles

14:56

Bronson version. He

14:59

was always taking vengeance on something that somebody

15:02

murdered his daughter, and then he was going out anyway.

15:05

Those were very popular when crime was at

15:07

its height in America, when crime

15:09

was out of control in big cities, those movies

15:11

were popular. It gave people a sense of

15:13

control. Will we uh

15:16

have that disclaimer? Before the movie, liberal

15:19

policies led to an enormous explosion

15:21

in crime. People were scared

15:23

legitimately, and so fantasies

15:26

about you know, vigilantes who

15:28

are popular. Now you're not gonna hear that Forrest

15:31

Gump. The film

15:33

is condescending to anyone with a disability

15:37

and people with aids, among others. All right, that's

15:39

dumb all the way around. It's actually hostile the protesters,

15:41

activists in counterculture. And the

15:44

lovable title character's name

15:46

is full name, Nathan

15:48

Bedford Forrest named after his grandfather,

15:51

first grand wizard of the clan. And

15:54

you like that. Also a

15:56

Confederate general um that

15:59

one is stupid, and that one is that the

16:01

other ones. Okay, that one's just stupid.

16:03

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom,

16:05

the exotic villains are portrayed as primitive

16:08

and bloodthirsty four runners, resulting

16:10

in negative and stereotypical depictions

16:12

of India and of Hindu customs. Or

16:15

is this serious list? Or is this serious?

16:18

You can't telle

16:22

Once upon a Time in Hollywood controversial

16:25

depiction of of Bruce Lee. Black

16:28

people seem non existent, the Mexicans

16:30

as they're called, their car valets and waitresses,

16:33

and Charles Manson's white supremacist

16:35

agenda is ignored because

16:37

he was completely psychotic. It's also

16:40

not a factual movie. Well,

16:42

but it's problematic. The

16:45

Searchers John Wayne plays a Civil War

16:47

veteran on the Confederate side who goes

16:49

on a five year searcher's niece who was kidnapped

16:52

by the Comanches. Wayne's

16:54

character is an unapologetic racist who sees

16:56

all Native Americans as less than human, et

16:59

cetera, etcetera. Right the

17:01

Silence of the Lambs. If

17:04

we go down this road, we will eliminate

17:06

a great portion of

17:08

books and movies that

17:11

are part of the

17:14

greatest stuff ever made. The problem with the

17:16

Silence of the Lands Clarice is

17:18

that it depicts the criminals transgender identification

17:21

as part of his mental illness, shows

17:24

him putting on women's makeup, tucking his mail

17:27

jet way. I wish I could tug mine away.

17:30

They never do me any not my problem.

17:32

He plays with his poodle and dances with

17:34

himself. Problematic. We

17:36

need a disclaimer. We got more

17:38

of these. There may be your favorite movies.

17:41

Stupid

18:05

Jennifer Lawrence has broken Twitter silence.

18:08

We've created a new public Twitter accounts to comment

18:10

on racial injustice. Will be monitoring your Twitter

18:12

account all day long to see what the young actress, the

18:14

twentysomething actress has to say. There is

18:16

not a microns earth powerful

18:19

enough to find him. Give a damn. I know it's

18:21

something. It's something. It's something

18:23

that they announce it with the assumption that a lot of people

18:25

care, and then the news media repeats it is if

18:27

there are a lot of people that I find

18:29

that interesting. Well, Jackie takes all kinds?

18:32

Does it take all kinds? I find

18:34

myself wondering this. It probably takes

18:36

several kinds to keep the world turning.

18:39

It doesn't take all kinds. There are several

18:41

kinds. I think ought to go, oh, and I want

18:43

to tease this Albuquerque, what how do I personalities?

18:46

Obviously not you know how

18:49

the town of Albuquerque New Mexico's

18:51

largest city, is UH dealing

18:53

with calls to defund the police. Pretty good idea

18:55

that I could easily see becoming the model UH

18:58

in a lot of places around a Mary talk

19:00

about that coming. Alburquerque famously liberal.

19:03

Everybody knows as Albuquerque goes, so does

19:05

the rest of the country. What's common?

19:08

What? A Colorado

19:10

Springs man who lived in a dead woman's house

19:12

and used her car for months after she passed away

19:15

is causing more trouble for the victims family.

19:19

The man by the name of Jack Cole. There's

19:21

a series of reports looking into alleged

19:23

squatting cases in Colorado. This news station

19:26

is doing. More than two years

19:28

after Cole was evicted by the courts, he's

19:30

filed a lawsuit against the dead woman's family

19:32

for more than a quarter of a million dollars. In

19:35

a bombshell discovery, News five has

19:37

learned in El Paso County judge has ruled in

19:39

his favor. There is a twist,

19:42

So don't let your head explode yet. But so

19:45

he heard the woman died and then went into her house.

19:48

Is that what happened? No,

19:50

No, it explains that in a little bit. But she

19:53

passed in a bunch of squatters took over her house and um

19:56

A coal is certain currently serving

19:58

time behind bars at the Crowley County Correctional

20:00

Facility on an unrelated sexual assault

20:02

case. Even though he's locked up, that hasn't

20:05

stopped him from filing numerous lawsuits,

20:07

including one against the Clark family for more

20:09

than four hundred thousand dollars. In

20:11

a jaw dropping decision, a judge ruled

20:13

in his favor. However, this news

20:16

station did an investigation review the court records.

20:18

Um it shows that Cold One is cased by falsifying

20:21

records, records that looked really

20:23

legitimate. They fooled the court and they'll

20:25

probably get reversed. But those familiar

20:27

with cold says is the type of criminal just won't go

20:29

away. He's a liar and we have to live

20:31

through this, said one of his victims. It's just

20:34

not right. Um

20:36

So she lost her

20:39

daughter in October. The

20:42

woman passed away. If the loss of a loved one

20:44

wasn't enough grief, she met with a surprise when she

20:46

went to Wendy's Colorado Springs home to gather

20:48

her belongings. Jerry said

20:50

there were random people living in sign whom

20:53

she had never met for months.

20:55

Listen to this. Now it's

20:58

your family's property. Your

21:01

family member passes away,

21:04

you show up, somebody's invaded that home.

21:07

I would assume I call the cops and they're out in fifteen

21:09

minutes. Four months, Jerry

21:12

fought with the court system to get the squatters

21:15

out, all while this cold

21:17

character and his friends taunted the family

21:20

at Christmas time. They even put up her decorations

21:22

talking about pain. Wow. Finally

21:25

in tween so

21:27

it took about a year, but very

21:30

tempting to try to find a certain crowd

21:32

of people then for cash would get

21:34

those people out of there. Yes, yes,

21:38

extremely tempting. The only thing

21:40

that would stop you from doing it is realizing

21:43

how twisted our court

21:45

system and laws have been. And

21:48

you'd think I

21:50

can't even ask them to leave, much

21:52

less you know something more extreme. So

21:55

the next year they finally ordered

21:58

the squatters to leave. Posession

22:00

of the home was returned to Wendy's family. Of

22:02

course, it was destroyed by the squatters.

22:05

What it's pathetic, Jerry said, absolutely

22:08

pathetic. We told the police we needed help. Nobody

22:10

could help us because it was a civil case. They couldn't

22:13

do anything. What is wrong with our system.

22:15

God dang it, how is occupying

22:18

property a civil

22:20

case? If somebody like that ever

22:23

happened in your life and you were dealing with it all the

22:25

time, obviously alongside the rest of

22:27

your life, job, kids,

22:29

health, everything else, you're dealing with this all

22:31

the time, God dang it,

22:33

that would be maddening. This News five, By

22:35

the way, good for them. They did multiple stories

22:37

on alleged squatting situations, eventually

22:40

forced lawmakers to pass legislation expert

22:42

adding court proceedings to get unauthorized

22:45

documents out of homes. Um,

22:47

that's most of what I know about this is the

22:49

same as a lot of people. Is that movie Pacific

22:51

Heights with Michael Keaton when they couldn't

22:54

get him out of that that house

22:56

in San Francisco. Yeah, and the law

22:58

kept saying aneling NewBoy. Fast

23:00

forward to today, Wendy's family is dealing with another

23:03

nightmare in the form of a lawsuit. Um,

23:07

Wendy's sister, the deceased woman's

23:09

sister, is one of three defendants. This

23:11

cold guy is suing seeking

23:14

more than four hundred thousand dollars in damages,

23:17

And so you've got to defend against a

23:19

lawsuit which means you I got to hire a lawyer

23:22

and spend all sorts of money and

23:24

time. He's a long time convicted

23:26

felon, does not have legal counsel. But that didn't

23:28

prevent him from winning his case. Again,

23:31

that's probably going to get overturned. But um,

23:33

can you imagine I went to get my mail and had

23:35

a letter from the El Paso County Court that there was

23:38

a default judgment entered against me. I

23:40

had no idea there was a lawsuit I was

23:42

involved in. I never got served paperwork, so

23:44

I had no knowledge this was happening whatsoever. She

23:47

just got hit with the judgment by the county.

23:50

Unfreaking believable. You know, life,

23:53

liberty, and property is

23:57

are the sacred right

24:00

that this country was founded on. The founding

24:02

fathers change

24:04

the phrase property to pursuit of happiness.

24:07

But what they meant and read, um, read

24:10

any one of Tim sander F's great books,

24:12

The Right to earn a living for instance, Um,

24:16

the pursuit of happiness was a phrase that meant

24:18

the pursuit of economic

24:21

achievement, making money, getting

24:23

property, et cetera. They thought property

24:25

was a little narrow because

24:28

you know, you have a right for instance, to sell.

24:30

If you have a horse, you have the right to sell the horse to somebody

24:32

who has money, and so life,

24:34

liberty, and property are the founding principles.

24:37

And the idea that you could find scumbags

24:39

occupying your house and they wouldn't be dragged

24:42

out of there two hours later just absolutely

24:44

disgusts me. You hate

24:46

to be disgusted. Um,

24:50

we need transition music, Michael, come on, what

24:52

are you doing in there? Wow? Kid,

24:54

you do We gotta beg you for you cork

25:00

com free. They'll

25:03

not keep yelling at Michael. What I'm gonna cheery mood? Now,

25:07

come on singing with me? Just

25:16

when you no

25:18

not So, there's a

25:20

lot of people saying to fund the police doesn't

25:22

mean getting rid of the police, And then sometimes

25:24

you ask other people and they say, that's exactly what you

25:26

mean. Um, there's a funny

25:28

clip I saw Geese. I should have figured out where

25:31

it was. Katie turn and MSNBC interviewing

25:33

somebody somewhere about

25:36

the whole the fund the police thing. This is last week and

25:38

she said, let's just for the record, get it out there.

25:40

When when people are talking about defund the police,

25:42

you don't mean getting rid of the police, and he said, that's

25:45

exactly what I mean, and er,

25:49

um, well, that's

25:52

that's a lot like Black Lives Matter.

25:55

People are in support of the phrase,

25:58

and some people think they're in part of

26:00

the organization but have no idea the full

26:03

panoply of what the organization

26:06

wants, and if they knew that, they'd be gainst it,

26:08

but they'd still be up with the sentiment, or I'm

26:10

sorry, down with the sentiment, as the kids

26:12

say. And it's become a take a seriously

26:14

not literally thing, which is kind of funny

26:16

obviously, since that's what the Trump crowd

26:19

says about Trump. Um uh,

26:21

the people don't mean we don't mean to fund the police, because

26:24

if you pull cutting money

26:26

to police departments, fient approval

26:29

to fund the police does better. Because

26:31

there's a certain crowd that doesn't

26:34

actually mean to fund the police. They just mean, you

26:37

know, fix the police department, Sure,

26:39

fix policing in America, that say

26:42

most Americans and most cops. Yeah, And this

26:44

is what they're doing in Albuquerque. And I have a feeling this is

26:47

going to become popular a lot of places, and different versions

26:49

of it. Calls to to fund the police are

26:51

being heard in New Mexico's largest city of Albuquerque,

26:53

where the mayor Tim Keller announced plans to create

26:55

a first of its kind unarmed public

26:58

safety force. The Albuquerque

27:00

Community Safety Department will serve alongside

27:03

the Albuquerque Police Department, but be

27:06

made up of unarmed social workers who are trained

27:08

in dealing with homelessness,

27:10

mental health, non violent emergencies, which

27:13

is something the police all of our country have been

27:15

asking for for a long time. Yeah,

27:18

let's try it. The new

27:20

force will give dispatchers a third option

27:22

besides police or fire fighters,

27:25

to de escalate certain situations.

27:27

You send somebody is an expert in mental

27:29

health and homelessness to go over and deal with that situation

27:31

over there, Cops or firefighters who

27:33

aren't trained to deal with either one of those

27:36

things just blasted

27:38

with a hose. Right, if

27:40

you're a firefighter, why do you have your axe

27:43

out? Why are you knocking down my tent? I'm

27:45

a firefighter. I don't what I'm always supposed to do. I

27:47

would. I've always thought it funny that they have to throw

27:49

on their full gear on calls, including

27:51

medical calls. What if in case there's a spontaneous

27:54

combustion, which based on our writing

27:56

with various fire departments. There's way more

27:58

of that than there is into a fire.

28:00

Oh yeah, yeah, they really

28:03

firemen or firefighters is

28:05

I mean, they do that, certainly, but that's not

28:08

most of what they do. Funding

28:10

for the new department would come from shifting resources

28:12

away from five other departments, including

28:15

the police, Fire and Transit department. So you'd be

28:17

in effect defunding police,

28:19

fire, and transit departments to have some money

28:21

to spend on these other things. If we can be grown

28:23

ups and talk about it this way. Um,

28:27

So there you go. I think that will catch on all across

28:29

the country. And I think, well,

28:32

like I've said several times over the last couple of weeks, some people

28:34

see this as conservatives getting things

28:36

done that they wanted to get done with AOC leading

28:39

the way or other lefties.

28:41

Right right politics is so odd

28:44

because the sadest psycho

28:48

kneeling on poor George Floyd's neck,

28:51

Um has nothing to do with police

28:54

responding to mental health calls. The

28:58

other has anything to do with chokeholds. Right

29:00

right, Um doesn't not anything to do with a lot of the things,

29:03

but right, it has to do with getting psychos

29:05

off police forces. Um. But It's

29:07

led to a lot more. We do it all

29:09

the time. We passed gun laws or various rules

29:12

after a school shooting that would have not affected

29:14

that particular shooting. Yeah, it feels like we're

29:16

doing something. People don't want to feel powerless.

29:20

Another thing is going to bring up. What would Joe

29:23

Biden say at this moment? That's what I'm wanting you,

29:27

Holy cow, somebody check

29:29

on him. So send the firefighters

29:32

to Joe Biden's house. I think he's dying. They

29:37

ought to call firefighters first

29:39

aiders. I

29:42

wonder if it just um doesn't

29:44

get you as much support politically.

29:49

Well, I think they've always been firefighters. Their

29:51

duties have grown through

29:55

the years. I mean back in the day, if you're sick,

29:57

you'd call your doctor, he'd come to your house. Now

30:00

you call the fire department. Would

30:03

have been something, oh yeah, good

30:05

time. Yeah yeah,

30:07

I like my doctor too, he's a good guy. The

30:10

most popular article in the New York Times

30:13

I regularly checked that column. Most popit articles

30:15

usually the ones people are reading and tweeting around. The most number

30:18

one right now is when I talked about yesterday flushing

30:21

the toilet flings, Corona

30:23

aerosol all over the place. You're

30:29

shedding the virus. You're going to say

30:31

a different word. You're

30:35

listening on a radio and went under a bridge and

30:37

things. You have a little fuzzy that was again

30:39

that word was, uh, what

30:41

you call the softy shedding.

30:46

Uh, you're shedding the virus when you do

30:48

your thing in the bathroom and then when you flush the toilet,

30:51

it sends the germs up in the air. And that's

30:53

a pretty bad way. Probably just don't care.

30:55

So public restrooms,

30:57

that's where I should throw my mask on before

30:59

I go in the restroom over here where there's a bunch of people. Have

31:01

been people in there, standing there, breathing, flushing

31:04

toilets, etcetera. That's probably not

31:06

probably guaranteed. That's the most dangerous

31:08

place in this buildings. The second I'm

31:10

gonna start going in the woods like a bear.

31:13

It seems like a sensible bear in

31:15

the woods. Seat.

31:18

Again, I

31:22

don't know that much about bear epidemiology.

31:26

Thank you for asking. That's the question. Um

31:29

Our text line is four one five

31:31

to nine five k FTC. What do we want

31:33

to talk about coming up? You know, we could get

31:35

into the game and transgender ruling the Supreme

31:38

Court just on leave. There are a lot of folks

31:40

who, with all due love and respect for Neil Corsets,

31:43

you're saying, boy, he got this one totally wrong. And

31:45

and it's not just I'm against

31:47

that. I think he's wrong, but his

31:49

reasoning doesn't hold on. Yeah, I've I've

31:51

read, I've read a couple of columns on that. People

31:54

are saying that's a major deal, and I guess

31:56

I just don't get it. Well, maybe I'll get it more

31:58

when Joe, who almost went the loss, no came

32:01

super close, explains it to us coming up the

32:21

Armstrong and Jetty Show. Yeah,

32:28

I have read a couple of articles, seen some people

32:30

say that ruling, the Supreme Court ruling, the

32:32

other day rulings, there were a number of them. The

32:34

guns stuff was a big deal that they chose

32:37

not to take up. And then this, um, well,

32:39

the the immunity, the conditional conditional

32:43

immunity, qualified immunity, that's it. Yeah,

32:45

I didn't take that interview on that. Do you think I could

32:47

remember? But then the whole gay transgender stuff,

32:50

I guess I didn't fully appreciate what a big deal this was.

32:53

Yeah, essentially, I mean,

32:55

really really really boiled down you can't be

32:57

fired because you're gay or transgender. Trans enter

33:00

and Neil Gorstch surprised a lot of people

33:02

by writing not only

33:04

agreeing with the liberals on the bench, but

33:06

writing the decision. I didn't know you could fire

33:09

somebody prior to that for being gay or transgender.

33:11

Yeah, and you

33:14

know, putting aside that basic question.

33:16

A lot of people are really critical of gorse

33:18

such as uh logic in the

33:20

decision. And I'm gonna have to rush a little

33:23

bit on this. Um Title

33:27

seven was passed a number of years ago. It's

33:29

been interpreted by the courts. It's you can't

33:31

discriminate against people for several reasons,

33:33

race, religion, and sex. And

33:36

and Gorsetch is arguing that

33:39

because sexual orientation and identity

33:41

is tied up in sex, that that

33:44

that counts. And this,

33:47

uh, this was written by Ryan Anderson Guests

33:49

who is a constitutional lawyer and wrote

33:52

a friend of the Court brief on this case and

33:54

everything else. And I found this really

33:56

compelling stuff. But um Gorstch

33:58

argues that whenever say is a butt four

34:01

cause of negative employment decisions,

34:03

sex discrimination has occurred, He writes, if

34:05

the employer intentionally relies in part

34:07

on an individual employees sex when

34:10

deciding to discharge the employee,

34:13

or if changing it. To put it differently, if changing

34:15

the employee sex would have yielded a different choice

34:17

by the employer, a statutory violation

34:19

has occurred. Um. One

34:22

example was, sean

34:25

is allowed to date Chicks's

34:30

not able, but allow if

34:33

you change sean sex to woman, a

34:36

woman is not allowed to date chicks,

34:38

which is the same thing because

34:41

we don't have no lesbians around here, actually

34:44

do and nobody cares. But um, that's

34:46

that's what gorse. It's just saying to change

34:48

the sex and the same activity

34:51

is okay. Another Gorsets example taking

34:53

employer of fires a transgender person who has

34:55

identified as male at birth but who now identifies

34:58

as female. If the employer your retains

35:00

an otherwise identical employee who has identified

35:03

as female at birth, the employer

35:05

intentionally penalizes a person identified

35:07

as male at birth for traits

35:09

or actions that it tolerates in an employee

35:11

identified as a female at birth.

35:15

So somebody acting like a female is

35:18

fine if it's a female, but not if it's a male as

35:20

sex discrimination. But

35:22

under the Gorsete test, what is acting like a

35:24

female? You know? What I mean dressing

35:28

moody? Oh boy,

35:31

what else you want to say out there on your island?

35:36

Hey, hey, down in the whole, here's a newer,

35:38

better shovel. What

35:42

Ryan guest goes on to right is under

35:44

the Gorsete test. If changing the plane if sex would

35:46

change the outcome, sex discrimination is taking

35:49

place. Suppose a female lifeguard is fired

35:51

because she wears a swimsuit bottom but not a top.

35:54

No doubt changing the employee sex would

35:56

have yielded a different choice by the employer. Uh.

35:59

That male and female bodies differ and thus required

36:02

different swimsuits to prevent exposure doesn't

36:04

amount to discrimination unless one embraces

36:06

a simplistic theory. Uh.

36:08

And of course, nothing hinges on whether this lifeguard

36:11

currently identifies as a man or a woman.

36:14

Consider another example. Suppose a male employee

36:16

at a fitness center repeatedly goes into the women's

36:18

locker room and is fired. Now, it's

36:20

true that changing the employee sex would have yielded

36:23

a different choice is that's a quote from Gorsage,

36:25

But the negative treatment the employee faced was not sex

36:28

discrimination. Providing the employer and posed

36:30

no double standard for men and women because each are

36:32

prevented from entering the opposite sexes private

36:35

space. Um And

36:37

yet with Gorsages opinion, the Supreme Court has

36:39

embraced the theory of sex discrimination that prevents

36:41

employers and schools from keeping males out

36:44

of female only spaces, or

36:47

either that or it believes only males with

36:49

transgender status have the

36:51

privilege of entering female only spaces,

36:55

and Gorsages theory does not test for sex

36:57

discrimination. Essentially, it's

37:00

too simplistic. It doesn't it

37:03

doesn't account for This is negative.

37:05

This is a double standard. This hurts

37:08

you because it's

37:10

a double standard. It's just the existence

37:12

of the double standard alone. Is is

37:15

evidence that that it's wrong. And I'm having

37:17

to cut this short because we're out of time, but

37:20

I agree. I think this is this

37:23

is wacky and it's gonna lead to some some rough

37:25

stuff and may may probably

37:27

be overturned.
