From the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio
0:03
at the George Washington Broadcast Center,
0:06
Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty Armstrong
0:09
and Getty Show.
0:13
With the ear of the White House. President Lopez
0:15
Obrador proposed his fix that
0:18
the United States commit twenty billion
0:20
dollars a year to poor countries in Latin
0:22
America and the Caribbean, lift
0:24
sanctions on Venezuela and the
0:26
Cuban embargo, and legalize
0:29
millions of law abiding Mexicans
0:31
living in the US. If
0:33
they don't do the things that you've said
0:35
need to be done, then what.
0:37
Bomb the flow of migrants? And
0:41
we'll continue.
0:42
All right, Well, that's the president of Mexico in
0:44
sixty minutes last night. Let's finish off that conversation
0:47
before we jump in.
0:48
Your critics have said what you're doing or
0:50
what you're asking for to help
0:53
secure the border is diplomatic
0:55
blackmail.
0:55
What do you say?
0:56
I'm speaking frankly. We
0:59
have to say as they are, and
1:02
I always say what I feel. I
1:04
always say what I think.
1:05
If they don't do those things, will you continue
1:08
to help to secure the border?
1:10
Yes, because.
1:13
Our relationship is very important.
1:17
It is fundamental, that is very
1:19
putent, like oh,
1:21
yeah, it is clearly time to bomb
1:23
Mexico and install ted Cruz as the governor
1:26
of our new estate. So, first
1:28
of all, my first question on sixty minutes would
1:30
have been why so many names?
1:32
Andre Manuel Lopez
1:34
or Brador? That's just too many names. Most
1:38
world leaders have two names first and last. You've got
1:40
like six names. So let's do something about
1:42
that. I'm gonna call you, hey fellow.
1:45
But he was on call him m
1:47
low, everybody calls him amlow. Right, Yeah,
1:51
he was on sixty minutes last night and
1:54
clearly threatening the United States. I mean, as
1:56
you heard there all kinds of stuff that
1:58
he demands or the flow of illegals will continue.
2:00
So you're saying you want help, Oh no, no, sure, oh
2:03
help have a very
2:05
important relationship about We're a good buddy.
2:06
What about the thing you just said a little bit ago.
2:09
You blackmailed us, like thirty seconds ago,
2:12
right, man, they got into a drug conversation.
2:14
We listen to this stuff.
2:16
The head of the DEA says cartels
2:18
are mass producing fentanyl, and
2:21
the US State Department has said that
2:23
most of it is coming out of Mexico.
2:26
Are they wrong, t yes,
2:28
oh no?
2:30
Or rather they don't have all the information
2:33
because fentanyls is also produced
2:35
in the United States.
2:37
And here's where it gets a little
2:39
uncomfortable for me, because he's too close to correct.
2:43
The State Department says, most of it's coming
2:45
from Mexico.
2:46
Fentanyl is produced in the United States,
2:49
in Canada and in Mexico, and
2:51
the chemical precursors come from Asia.
2:55
Do you know why we don't have the drug consumption
2:57
that you have in the United States Because
3:00
we have customs, traditions
3:02
and we don't have the problem of the
3:05
disintegration of the family.
3:06
Yes, but there is drugs consumption in Mexico,
3:09
but.
3:09
We put very little.
3:10
So why the violence then in Mexico.
3:14
Because drug trafficking exists,
3:17
but not the consumption.
3:19
That's interesting.
3:20
So we were a narco state
3:22
where there is no rule of law and
3:25
the person in charge in every town is
3:27
part of a cartel.
3:28
But we don't use many drugs. We just
3:31
drug death. We don't take it ourselves.
3:33
Come on, but that whole America's
3:35
appetite for drugs and disintegration of
3:37
the family thing is hard
3:40
to swallow.
3:42
Yes, deaths of despair,
3:44
as they say, Well,
3:46
it's no secret that we have some serious
3:48
challenges as a people right
3:51
now, and a lot of people are filling
3:53
the void in their lives with drugs
3:55
that are increasingly deadly. It's a
3:57
crisis. It's an enormous crisis, but a complicated
4:00
one.
4:00
We got this text.
4:01
I think the drug problem is fueling our employment
4:03
problem, which exacerbates the illegal immigration
4:06
problem.
4:06
It's all connected.
4:09
That's an excellent point, well played. My friend kind
4:11
of goes in a circle there.
4:13
We need to let people across the
4:15
border to fill the jobs because we have millions
4:17
and millions and millions of
4:19
working age men who aren't even looking for jobs,
4:22
many of them on drugs.
4:23
So that's that's unfortunate.
4:26
Uh So this guy that
4:28
is seen as like
4:31
soft on the cartels, is that that's the knock
4:33
on him.
4:34
Yeah, the battle between the Mexican federal
4:36
government and the cartels was quite bloody
4:39
for years under his predecessors,
4:42
and Amlow came in. He's he's very
4:44
much a socialist. Uh he's
4:47
half a Hugo Chavez. He said,
4:49
no, we're not gonna fight him all the time. We're gonna
4:51
give people hope and benefits and hugs,
4:53
not bullets, and you know, and give
4:56
kids, you know, a leg up for college
4:58
education. That's how we'll battle it well. And
5:00
it has dropped the murder rate significantly,
5:03
but that's because they conceded.
5:06
They settled.
5:08
They said, Okay, you can run huge
5:10
swaths of the country cartels. You can actually
5:12
have the keys to the treasury. In significant
5:15
sized cities, you will run
5:17
them like the mob used to run neighborhoods
5:20
in New York. You can't do business except
5:22
through the cartels. So yeah, yeah,
5:24
giving up and letting the criminals run rough shot
5:26
has lowered the violence.
5:30
But it's half a failed narco state
5:32
at this point, Mexico.
5:34
Right, and we have to worry about that because they're on our border
5:37
and our number one trading partner
5:39
now as of like a year ago.
5:41
But you really ought to use finger quotes when you
5:43
say border, because it's kind
5:46
of a border, but not.
5:47
Really like is secure.
5:51
It's like the border between Illinois
5:53
and Iowa. I mean, sometimes
5:55
your car will tell you welcome to Iowa,
5:57
but it's not much of a border.
6:00
Mister Mayarkus, how often do you work on
6:02
securing the border. I know it's an important part of your job.
6:04
I've got a busy day Monday, Tuesday,
6:06
Wednesday and so on. Oh
6:10
my god, so you were ranking
6:12
the point earlier.
6:13
While well, we do have to care about Mexico because
6:15
it's on our border and our trading partner and all that. It's
6:17
our job to secure our border. You can't be
6:20
a whining that he's not securing
6:22
our border. And it's also our
6:24
job to have a culture that's not obsessed
6:26
with getting high.
6:28
We can't bright other countries for that,
6:32
I would agree.
6:33
I mean, if eighty percent of the culpability
6:35
is on us, it's just such a
6:37
bad and pathetic look to be whining
6:39
about the other twenty percent.
6:41
Yeah, it is old am Low ought to be helping
6:43
us with.
6:43
It's just it's well and that's why the
6:45
Biden administration is focused on it, because it
6:48
gets the spotlight off of them.
6:49
Headline the La Times, nobody's talking
6:51
about.
6:51
A senior leader of the MS thirteenth
6:53
Street Gang, one of the FBI's most wanted
6:56
gang fugitives, was quietly arrested
6:58
at the California Mexican border on narco
7:01
terrorism charges. Who knows how many
7:03
times this guy had come in and out, but he's
7:05
a major MS thirteen Later coming
7:08
to set up his business with his buddies
7:11
in the US, there are lots of
7:13
especially on the East coast MS thirteen
7:15
gangs getting set up. Before we move
7:18
on from that, I've got to tell you this guy's name, Freddie
7:20
Ivan jandres Parada. His
7:23
nom diplome is nom de gang is
7:25
Lucky de park View. Lucky
7:30
d park View.
7:32
Back to the multi named president of
7:34
Mexico, who was on sixty Minutes last night.
7:36
Listen to this story.
7:39
The President's stunned the audience when he
7:41
read the cel phone number of a New York Times
7:43
reporter who was pursuing what he
7:45
viewed as a critical story of
7:47
him. It looks like you were threatening that reporter.
7:50
Not really.
7:51
I didn't do it with the intention of harming at
7:53
her. She like yourself on
7:55
our public figures, and I
7:58
am as well.
7:59
But you know this is a dangerous place
8:01
for reporters, and you know that threats
8:03
often come in texts and phones.
8:06
When you put her phone number up behind
8:08
you, you realize what you were doing.
8:10
No, no, no, no, Well.
8:12
What did you think you were doing.
8:13
It's a form
8:15
of responding to a libel.
8:17
Imagine what it means for this reporter to
8:19
write that the president of Mexico
8:22
has connections with drug traffickers, and
8:25
without having any proof, that's
8:27
a vile slander.
8:30
He's something huh no, no,
8:32
no, no, no, not.
8:33
I wouldn't threaten her. What are you talking about?
8:37
First saying out loud that he has ties to the cartels,
8:40
which he clearly does.
8:41
And so you do a report
8:43
in the New York Times that he has ties to the cartels, and he
8:45
puts out your phone number.
8:47
How scary is that?
8:50
As you all know, if you get some of his phone number, you can find
8:52
out their address and everywhere
8:54
they've.
8:54
Lived, right right,
8:57
all the relatives' names. Yikes.
8:59
Yeah, no, no, no,
9:01
no, that was not thready. She's a public figure.
9:04
We're all public figures. We should all trade trade
9:06
phone numbers. What's your number, Sharon?
9:09
Yeah? Wow, failed narco state on our
9:11
southern border border.
9:15
Well, that's why it's the number one.
9:17
That's several of the reasons why it's the number one issue
9:19
for Americans, in spite of the mainstream media's
9:21
efforts to soft pedal the entire topic
9:24
for years and years and years. That is the thing, and
9:26
this is this is worth saying out loud and
9:28
staving plainly. The border
9:31
slash immigration situation is
9:33
what more Americans are more concerned
9:36
about than any other issue.
9:38
Nah, it's climate change. Place.
9:41
Climate change is what we're doing.
9:42
Any inequality, sell
9:44
your snowshovel by a I don't know, a
9:47
motorbike.
9:50
I hope this doesn't happen. I'm
9:52
surprised it hasn't happened already, But
9:55
I think there will be a terrorist attack where
9:57
it becomes very clear that the people came across
9:59
the border, and then after a bunch of
10:01
people die, we will then
10:04
at that point there'll be political will to actually
10:06
finally flipping do something about this. I
10:09
hope not an attack like we saw in Moscow for
10:12
the weekend, but if ISIS isn't trying,
10:14
I mean it would be shocking.
10:17
Well, this will be my final thought on the topic. We
10:19
were talking earlier about how
10:22
ISIS is intent
10:24
on harming us. They're intent on harming China.
10:27
They want to kill Iranians, they want to kill Hell,
10:29
they want to kill the tally Ban.
10:30
They just want to kill anybody who.
10:32
Stands in their apocolytic, their way
10:34
of instituting this apocalyptic brand
10:36
of a fundamentalist Islam.
10:39
So obviously they're intent unharming
10:41
US, and we have a wide open border and we have people
10:44
flooding in from Syria and all over the world. Jack,
10:46
if that doesn't happen, that'll
10:49
be astonishing.
10:50
Yeah.
10:50
Absolutely, It'll
10:56
be very annoying to the crowd
10:58
that has been saying this is going to happen
11:00
all these years. Like Marco
11:03
Rubio we heard from yesterday
11:06
on the Sunday talk shows.
11:08
All right, Well,
11:12
what will be truly annoying is when it happens, people
11:14
will say, how did this happen? So,
11:17
just because I'm not very I
11:19
don't know much about different cultures, why does
11:21
he have five five names?
11:23
It's it's it has to do with
11:26
you take your your mother's maiden
11:28
name and your father's name, and.
11:30
I know, and then how the street you grew up on and that's
11:32
your porn star name.
11:34
And that's the way it works. All right, I'm through here. I'm
11:36
checking out.
11:39
Trump has got to come up with the money by midnight tonight
11:41
or what happens. That's starting a bunch of other
11:43
stuff on the way.
11:52
I was reading more about this thing you brought up a
11:54
couple of weeks ago. This transferring
11:56
from changing from an entertainment
11:58
culture to a dopamine culture. You
12:01
gotta talk about that more later that I
12:03
know. We we both say this a lot. This
12:05
is the biggest thing happening. This is certainly
12:07
right up there with among the biggest things happening.
12:11
I would agree completely. Plus
12:13
a gender bending update, gender
12:15
bending madness update from
12:17
Europe and the United States. Did you know
12:19
we're almost at a majority of
12:21
US states that are banning these
12:24
unforgivable experimental sex
12:27
change procedures on kids. We're almost
12:29
at half ultramagous states. I'm
12:31
sure, Please sane
12:33
states, Jack.
12:34
Are you a dnk? Are you a dank?
12:36
I think you're you're you were a dank at one point.
12:38
You're no longer a dank or perhaps you're a dink
12:40
wad or a sink.
12:41
Or a dino. These
12:44
are the incredibly annoying A
12:47
let me.
12:47
Tay say dink waddnk wad
12:50
sounds like something you shouldn't say on the air. Uh,
12:53
it's it's variations on the whole double
12:55
income no kids lifestyle,
12:59
dual income no kids If you will now,
13:01
it's not new slang. I remember
13:03
hearing the dinks when I had a house full of babies.
13:06
I'm actually annoyinc one
13:09
income, no one
13:12
income, two kids, whatever, that would be onyk.
13:16
You gotta come up with a You gotta have a
13:18
groovy acronym in
13:21
the modern world, especially on
13:23
the gram or on TikTok. Anyway,
13:25
it isn't new slang, but suddenly vocal dinks
13:28
are everywhere.
13:28
It's more couples like they outline.
13:31
These two people, who are of.
13:32
Course software engineers, not only
13:34
embrace the label but boldly let
13:36
their dink flags fly beying
13:39
dinks.
13:39
I means we just have a lot of freedom, time
13:42
and money.
13:42
Yeah, we know, Natalie, those most who aren't
13:44
to know that you have a lot of time. Yeah,
13:48
she's focused on building a net worth of a
13:50
million dollars by age thirty. I know that
13:53
once I have a kid, I'll have to assume a lot of the
13:55
caregiving responsibility and work less. I'm
13:57
sure they're nice folks, although they did dress
13:59
their little purse dog in a Santa outfit
14:02
next Christmas. So
14:05
this is the hot thing on social media. The lexicon
14:08
has ballooned to include dink wads,
14:10
which is dinks with a.
14:12
Dog, sinks,
14:15
single income, no kids. Some dinks
14:18
prefer dyno dual income, no offspring.
14:21
There's even dinky for dual income
14:23
no kids yet. Okay,
14:28
yeah, yeah, social media is so tiring.
14:31
What I like this one comment?
14:33
What's what's the single the double
14:35
income no offspring as opposed to no kids?
14:38
What sort of subset are you?
14:40
Your pretentious pains in the ass.
14:44
The recent vocal dinkdom is also
14:46
generating a backlash on social
14:48
media. People argue that they do much
14:50
of what dinks do, just with kids in tow.
14:54
Says one comedian, childish couples
14:56
are even more annoying than the imaginary children
14:58
they complain about, not even they
15:00
don't seem to do anything with their free time
15:02
except make videos about how much free time
15:04
they have.
15:08
That's pretty funny. Yeah.
15:10
Yeah, everything's got to have a name, and
15:12
everything has to be a trend. But here
15:14
I am giving it air, So I will end the discussion.
15:17
Now again, you
15:19
call somebody dink wad in
15:21
the wrong crowd, you're gonna be fighting them.
15:23
I'm looking at it from the perspective of somebody
15:25
with zero free time and a couple of kids,
15:27
But it sure looks like those of
15:29
you with no kids and lots of free time spend a
15:32
lot of it online, which I'm
15:34
not sure. Is you know something
15:36
for me to pine
15:39
for?
15:40
Yeah, they spend all their free time making videos about
15:42
how much free time they have exactly. You
15:46
know what, We're the big tent show.
15:48
You live your life the way you see fit. We
15:50
believe in liberty for all. You make your own
15:52
life choices. The
15:55
idea that I look back on raising my three kids
15:57
is some sort of burden and impediment
16:00
to the life I could have had is
16:03
so obscenely wrong it's difficult
16:05
for me to even find the words to describe how
16:07
wrong it is.
16:09
Right, So
16:13
that kind of fits in with the transferring
16:15
from entertainment culture,
16:17
which we all thought was so horrible for so long.
16:19
Right, right,
16:22
So we went from educating to entertaining
16:24
to now.
16:25
To the dopamine culture, which is clearly
16:27
magnitudes worse than the entertainment culture.
16:30
As we're just getting our little hits of dopamine
16:33
from tiny little videos
16:35
or texts or whatever and taking in
16:38
like no information, no art, no
16:40
nothing, over.
16:41
And over and over again all
16:44
day long. Yikes. Is this dopamine
16:46
culture?
16:47
Is this the last step on the way down? Is there something
16:49
after this? A fentanyl culture?
16:53
Oh gosh, I don't know, but just
16:55
constantly amusing yourself
16:58
as opposed to the
17:00
meteor facets of life that bring
17:02
real satisfaction.
17:03
Yeah, I think that's a disease. I was in an airport.
17:05
Every single human sitting there
17:08
was staring at their phone, every single
17:10
human, and I was just thinking, So, if you go back
17:12
twenty years, what were people doing reading
17:15
magazines, books, talking each other? But they weren't staring
17:17
at their phone.
17:21
Armstrong and Getty.
17:24
So we're starting
17:26
on some new stations today and
17:29
I thought, well, this would be the first time they hear the breaking
17:31
news donkey. But do you remember why we
17:33
have a breaking news donkey. I don't remember why
17:35
we have a breaking news donkey. When we have breaking
17:37
news, the donkey, when the news breaks, the
17:39
donkey brays.
17:40
That's correct. Yeah, I just think we needed
17:43
a sounder for breaking
17:45
news. And I'm kissing.
17:47
I decided something ridiculous would
17:49
be fun.
17:50
So there's nothing other than it. Just you have to have something
17:53
when news breaks. The donkey brais What more
17:55
did you need?
17:57
Breaking news?
17:59
And midnight tonight,
18:01
Trump was going to be in big trouble the way things
18:04
were currently constituted if he couldn't come up with that
18:06
half billion dollar bond, they could
18:08
seize his accounts, a building,
18:10
all kinds of different things, but.
18:13
Breaking news with.
18:15
Donald Trump on the clock to secure nearly half billion
18:17
dollar bond, New York feels court appears to have
18:19
handed the former president of Lifeline accepting
18:22
a far smaller bond of one hundred and seventy
18:24
five million.
18:25
So it's a.
18:25
Five judge panel in
18:28
this appeal situation that says now one hundred
18:30
and seventy five million, and he got ten days
18:33
as opposed to the one judge,
18:36
and the Attorney General said.
18:37
Half a billion dollars. I'm just got of it an ow yeah,
18:40
yeah. Again.
18:41
The point of these things is to get
18:43
right with the law. It's not to just like
18:46
hurt people or ruin them.
18:48
It's not supposed to be anyway.
18:51
Right.
18:51
It's saying, hey, yes you can appeal.
18:53
Of course you can appeal in America, but we
18:55
need to make sure you don't disappear with
18:57
the fine, So you need to put up
19:00
a bond for it while the appeal goes forward.
19:02
Okay, fine, But to ask somebody
19:04
to come up with half a billion dollars in cash in a short
19:06
time, it's impossible.
19:08
It's idiotic.
19:09
Nobody would ever have that much cash on hand,
19:11
and it's not easily done.
19:12
She wanted the moment of TV
19:15
cameras rolling while she and her people
19:17
took some of his stuff. I think
19:20
they show up with a big bolt cutters and
19:22
put new locks on the door. That's what she was hoping
19:24
for. Leticia James, the Attorney General in New
19:26
York, she's a I don't know what she's
19:28
stunting for. If it just makes her more
19:30
popular, or is she gonna run for governor someday or
19:33
what. But anyway, this five judge
19:35
panel says no. One hundred and seventy five million, and
19:37
you got ten days, and most people
19:40
reporting on this involved seem to think he
19:42
can come up with.
19:43
That bing bing bang bang
19:45
bing bing bing.
19:46
That he's got the wherewithal to actually pull that off.
19:48
So this is now a different story.
19:50
Yeah, I think Letitia james act. It
19:53
reminds me of Kamala Harris's act. At
19:55
the other end of the country, in California, you've got essentially
19:57
a one party state at
20:00
least as far as control of the legislature
20:02
goes, and all you have to do
20:04
is effectively preach
20:06
the you know, the incantations
20:09
of your side, your party, be grandstandy
20:13
about it, and there's no threat to your power
20:15
because you won't be primaried from your left.
20:18
And that yields such luminaries as
20:20
Kamala Harris play click ninety again, would
20:22
you, Michael?
20:23
This is a brand new Kamala adding to her greatest
20:25
dants.
20:26
There is no, whatsoever any
20:28
evidence, and in fact, what we know to
20:31
be the case is.
20:31
That isis k is actually, on
20:33
by all accounts, responsible for what happened.
20:38
So Trump isn't Trump one
20:40
of those guys that famously only has to sleep four
20:43
hours a night or something like that. Yeah,
20:45
but I was just gonna ask him, wonder how soundly he sleeps?
20:47
A I wish I was built more like he is, to
20:49
be able to take on a whole bunch of different
20:51
things at one time and just apparently just
20:54
take them one at a time and put
20:56
the other ones out of your mind while
20:58
you, for instance, win a Gulf Championship
21:00
over the weekend and tweet
21:03
out about how excited you are.
21:04
I mean, because he he
21:06
is.
21:07
He just he posted a ninety one point
21:09
six million dollar bond recently
21:12
in the defamation case against Egene
21:14
Carroll. Now is this one hundred and seventy five million
21:17
bond, which prior to like an hour ago, was
21:19
a half a billion dollar bond. And he's
21:21
in court today right now, sitting
21:23
in a case with the whole Stormy Daniels
21:25
thing, which is a decent chance he's gonna
21:27
be found guilty and know some money or whatever.
21:29
I mean while running for president.
21:32
I don't. I don't know how yet keep your
21:34
leg from going nuts. Well, he
21:36
ask people for one thing, good
21:39
people, he trust.
21:40
You've got to call off on a whole bunch of these decisions
21:42
every single day, so you'd have to.
21:43
Be thinking about them. Yeah,
21:45
you gotta say.
21:46
Yes, no, pursue that, sign this whatever
21:48
I mean. I just, man, I don't know.
21:50
The way he's built is interesting.
21:52
I think it's it's helpful that he's been a wheeler
21:54
dealer since he was a young man. Just that's
21:57
that's his style. Got a bunch of plates
21:59
in the air.
22:00
Well, yeah, i'd say, and then often just different
22:02
plates now and often,
22:05
at least when he was a younger man, a lot of a you
22:07
know, relationship plates were in the air
22:09
at the same time. I don't know if he still
22:11
has that as a guy who's about eighty but doing
22:14
this begind of pressure I can't handle and wouldn't
22:16
want to doing that while
22:18
you're dealing with being sued and going bankrupt,
22:20
and god, I'd go flipping
22:23
crazy.
22:24
Oh yeah, yeah, absolutely.
22:27
I think he's probably helped by the fact
22:29
that, because you know, Trump famously takes in a fair amount
22:31
of media, a fair amount a lot of media,
22:34
he understands that the Stormy
22:36
Daniel's idiotic case is
22:38
viewed as a joke by everybody, and he
22:40
probably has enough campaign contributions coming in
22:42
to handle a lot of the legal fees. I don't think that one's
22:45
going to hurt him financially that much. And
22:47
then the Letitia James deal, which
22:49
could really really hurt him financially.
22:51
More and more people across the aisle
22:53
are coming out and saying this is utterly
22:56
unjust. This is a political hit
22:58
job the way everyone that's
23:01
right, Marjorie, the way this obscure
23:04
old laws being applied.
23:06
So he's got to feel like the wind is in
23:08
his sails.
23:09
I always remember the
23:13
one of the debates with Hillary Clinton in twenty sixteen,
23:16
and a thank you gladys, and
23:18
a great question I don't remember who the moderator
23:20
was. They should ask this question every debate. The
23:23
question was say something nice about the
23:25
other person. And Hillary
23:27
said, I really admire how his children
23:30
have turned out and his parenting. I
23:32
thought that was a nice thing to say. And Trump said
23:34
about Hillary, she's tough.
23:37
She is tough. She handles all this
23:39
and stays on her feet. She is tough.
23:40
He understands that
23:43
that the mental toughness
23:46
of all kinds of different things going
23:48
on at the same time. But somehow you keep
23:50
going forward. And
23:52
Trump takes things personally
23:55
to a fault. I think I think
23:57
his greatest character flaws. But
24:00
that's a weird the
24:02
angle of this. He's able to
24:04
keep it together enough to keep fighting
24:07
these things and stay in the game and not just
24:09
say I'll screw it. I'm not gonna run for prisoner, I'll
24:11
screw it, I'll sell the golf club.
24:12
I just want to go blah. He doesn't do that.
24:14
At the same time, he has to lash out
24:17
about the weirdest things on
24:19
Twitter or whatever.
24:21
Well, the point I was gonna make, though, is that he,
24:23
you know, instead of operating entirely or
24:25
mostly on principle, it's all about who kisses
24:27
his butt.
24:28
It drives me crazy.
24:29
On the other hand, the fact that
24:32
he takes everything personally means
24:34
he can't possibly back down in
24:36
the face of a Letitia James or
24:38
on Alvin Bragg or one of the more ridiculous
24:41
prosecutions. He won't give
24:43
them the satisfaction.
24:44
So you think that's the like the gas
24:46
in his engine that keeps him going absolutely
24:49
wow. Interesting, But you think with all the stuff
24:51
going on he's got going on, he wouldn't have time to
24:54
get worked up about
24:56
a cable news host who says.
24:57
Something and then he has to react to it.
25:00
Yeah, yeah, I know it, I know it.
25:02
Hey, coming up a gender bending
25:05
madness update, both the usual
25:07
spate of perverse news, but some really
25:10
good news as more and more people
25:12
are waking up to the radical
25:14
critical gender theory crowd
25:16
and how nuts they are.
25:20
I think there needs to someday. Be it
25:24
might have to be years from now, because, as
25:27
we all know, Trump derangement syndrome is a
25:29
real thing. Kind of both directions
25:31
really, but someday when people calm
25:33
down about the whole thing. The ability
25:36
to evaluate his personality one
25:38
of the more unique personalities in world.
25:40
History, I would agree completely.
25:43
We had a lot on the way to stay with us.
25:50
It's time for a gender bending madness
25:52
updates,
26:00
madness of retical radical gender
26:02
theory working like crazy
26:04
it or rooted out a
26:08
couple of developments worth reporting. According
26:11
to an organization that Mike Pence founded,
26:13
Actually Advancing American Freedom.
26:15
Buried in the newly past one point two trillion
26:18
dollar federal spending package are millions
26:21
of dollars for woke causes, including
26:24
groups that host drag shows and provide teens
26:27
seeking to change their sex with gender
26:29
affirming hormones and
26:31
underwear.
26:32
For instance, was the first thing you said about drag shows?
26:35
They host drag shows. I
26:38
don't get the drag shows.
26:39
I know, but let's see conservative
26:42
flag to bevy of earmarks, including four
26:44
hundred thousand dollars for Garden State
26:46
Equality in New Jersey, which promotes
26:49
free gender affirming garments. They
26:51
include chest binders used to flatten
26:53
female chests and gaffes designed
26:55
to help minimize the appearance of a crotch
26:58
bulge. I don't need those earmarks,
27:00
requested by Senators Cory Booker and
27:02
Robert Menendez old gold bars
27:05
Menendez, New Jersey Democrats replied
27:07
South Carolinian Ralph Norman, it's not crazy
27:10
that the federal government should not be subsidizing
27:12
trans clothing for miners, as
27:15
they try to have confused
27:18
adolescents changed their sex
27:20
without their parents knowing it.
27:23
You've got we'll change their appearance. You can't
27:26
change your sex, is the thing.
27:27
Well, no, no, even if you get surgery, you
27:30
haven't changed your sex. There's
27:32
a giant grant for Briar
27:35
Patch Youth Services earmarked by
27:37
Tammy Baldwin, Wisconsin Democrat. The
27:39
organization's teams, like us LGBTQIA
27:44
two S plus program offers
27:47
counseling and gender affirm and clothing, among
27:50
others. There are a bunch of examples of this,
27:54
three hundred and fifty thousand dollars for the NAACP
27:56
in Connecticut to increase diversity in state contracting.
27:59
But this is as a gender bending madness updates, so we'll
28:01
move on and stick with that theme.
28:05
A US intelligence official claims
28:07
cross dressing makes him better at understanding
28:09
foreign actors. That's part of the National
28:12
Intelligence's Diversity, Equity, Inclusion
28:14
and Accessibility Office and their newsletter,
28:18
did you have any idea that our national
28:20
intelligence services have a robust
28:22
and aggressive DEI program Right
28:24
now, this
28:27
guy says, not only is dressing as a woman helped
28:29
him understand some of the foreign actors
28:31
he studies, but wearing a bra, which
28:33
is uncomfortable has helped him be a better coworker
28:36
to women.
28:38
Okay, yeah, I know it's
28:40
just dopey this. I love.
28:42
High school girls and boys are protesting the official
28:44
push for shared restrooms at a
28:47
district in New York State. Students
28:49
at John Jay High School stage to a walk out
28:51
in protest to students being allowed to use the restroom
28:54
of whatever sex they identify with rather
28:56
than their actual biological sex. Said
29:00
high school student Shawna Nielan. A
29:02
bunch of people from our school felt uncomfortable.
29:04
We want to change that, give them their own spaces, but we
29:06
need to feel comfortable and safe. In
29:08
other words, they're standing up for girls
29:11
to have private spaces for girls
29:14
and good for them stage to walk out.
29:16
Love that. We'd love to see that spread.
29:18
Maybe you've heard Planet Fitness as stock
29:20
has plunged after a memo
29:23
came out from their corporate headquarters
29:25
saying Planet Fitness staff should
29:27
work with members and employees to address the discomfort
29:29
blah blah blah.
29:30
Long story short.
29:31
Do not, under any circumstances
29:34
tell a man to get out of the.
29:35
Women's bathrooms and locker rooms.
29:38
It's the official policy to let men into
29:40
women's locker rooms, and women
29:43
around America have reacted exactly how
29:45
you think they might.
29:46
Wow. Yeah, I know, it's crazy.
29:48
A couple more for you, very quickly.
29:51
You may remember trans golfer Haley
29:53
Davidson, who won some women's pro tour
29:55
event has now been quietly uninvited
29:58
from playing in the an x XT.
30:02
Tour because he is a dude.
30:05
So interestingly enough, more and more
30:07
organizations are waking up to
30:09
how a certain obscene
30:12
it is to have dudes throw on a dress
30:14
say I'm a girl, and competing against women
30:16
and being in their locker rooms. Obviously,
30:20
one more, a new study that is
30:22
actually scientifically rigorous
30:25
has demonstrated that far from preventing
30:27
suicides, these experimental sex
30:30
change operations are increasing
30:33
folks suicide risk.
30:35
Shocking. Yeah, I know, and I've
30:37
been saying this for years and years.
30:38
Study quote transgender suicide risk doubles
30:41
after gender affirming vagina
30:43
plasty.
30:46
Reasons that I'm.
30:46
Because so many people would that
30:48
they're miserable. Somebody convince
30:51
them of the reason you're miserable is you needed to
30:53
get this sex change. So you get
30:55
that done, you're still miserable, and you realize
30:57
now I've I've
31:00
changed my body in a way that can never be
31:02
fixed, that would make you suicidal.
31:05
Yeah, I mutilated my body. I
31:07
convinced everybody I knew this was the right
31:10
thing. Now I realized I was completely wrong.
31:12
I've spent a tremendous amount of money. I have lifelong
31:14
health problems, infections, and the
31:17
list of health problems you have when you do is
31:19
this sort of thing is awful, just
31:21
awful for Yeah. So, yeah, they're miserable
31:24
and suicidal. But we're not going to end on
31:26
such a depressing note.
31:29
Good for.
31:29
Wyoming became the twenty fourth state to ban
31:32
gender surgeries on children when
31:34
the Republican Governor Mark Gordon signed legislation
31:36
targeting the life altering experimental
31:38
practice into law on Friday. Senate
31:41
File ninety nine prohibits
31:43
physicians from performing procedures for children
31:46
related to gender transitioning in gender reassigne,
31:48
I.
31:48
Can't believe it's legal anywhere.
31:51
It's like having to outlaw human sacrifices.
31:55
I just didn't know that was a problem.
31:58
Yep.
31:58
I absolutely agree, poor
32:01
confused adolescents who are afraid of
32:03
womanhood in particular.
32:05
So, doctor, you went to medical school and you're
32:07
going to remove the penis of a healthy
32:09
fourteen year old boy
32:12
because he has underlying problems
32:14
of autism or anxiety or
32:16
depression or whatever.
32:17
That's horrific. God.
32:19
As a matter of fact, here's a headline from the Daily
32:21
Telegraph. Sex reassignment
32:23
in minors may be medical history's greatest
32:25
ethical scandal, according to a
32:28
French government report. So
32:30
the French government has joined the British government
32:32
in saying no more experimental
32:35
drugs in procedures surgery
32:38
on children. There
32:40
needs to be a long, slow,
32:42
careful psychological evaluation
32:45
before.
32:45
You even consider any of this stuff.
32:48
And you'll note that a lot of the so
32:50
called gender affirming care clinics in the United
32:52
States, not only do they not do a slow, careful,
32:55
long term study, they forbid it.
32:58
They whisk you down the pipeline and
33:00
get you, you know, drugged and nipped
33:02
and talked.
33:02
It's sick.
33:03
The French Senate report comes in the wake of
33:06
the leaked w Path files, which we
33:08
have talked about in the past, which showed
33:10
that gender medicine, doctors, therapists, and
33:12
activists know they're causing harm and they're
33:14
not getting informed consent from their victims.
33:16
Sundeniable final gender
33:18
bending madness update note
33:22
progress more good news.
33:25
In twenty twenty one, if
33:27
you ask people, is it okay for
33:29
men to play on women's sports teams if they
33:32
say I'm a girl, it was eighty
33:34
six to ten No. Among Republicans.
33:37
It's now ninety three to six. So
33:40
even among Republicans who virtually everybody
33:42
agreed that numbers, those numbers
33:44
have grown significantly or changed significantly.
33:47
Among independents, it was
33:50
sixty three thirty three no, it's
33:52
now sixty seven twenty eight no.
33:55
And even among Democrats.
33:57
And if you are a Democrat, we
33:59
may disagree on the scope
34:01
and power of government or welfare programs are a hundred
34:04
different things, but that doesn't mean we can't be friends
34:06
and get along and be neighbors and whatever.
34:09
But you've got to disassociate yourself
34:11
from this radical theory crowd.
34:13
They are sickos. Anyway.
34:15
Among Democrats in
34:19
twenty twenty one, they believed, yes,
34:21
it's fine for boys to compete against girls if
34:23
they say I'm a girl by fifty five
34:25
forty one. Now
34:28
it fails forty eight forty
34:30
seven. So it's, you know, within the margin
34:32
of error. But even Democrats are
34:34
waking up and saying, no, no,
34:37
I've actually now that I've actually seen it and
34:39
thought about it. You can't have young
34:41
men who've gone through male puberty
34:44
competing against girls, especially the Leah
34:46
Thomas nightmare, the college swimmer
34:49
six foot four, rippling with muscles,
34:52
fully intact genitalia, saying
34:54
I'm a girl. Now.
34:56
How is so there are Summer Olympics coming
34:58
up in Paris. The Olympics state
35:01
out of this problem.
35:02
They haven't.
35:03
Actually, they've used some very
35:06
