00:00:05.599 --> 00:00:06.839
Hey, welcome World of Blazers.

2
00:00:06.839 --> 00:00:11.480
Today, I have Bruce McGhee post of the Weathered View

3
00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:15.839
Weather Report. Weatherview, by the way, greatest morning show on

4
00:00:16.199 --> 00:00:21.719
X period. Haven't if you haven't tuned in and watched it,

5
00:00:21.879 --> 00:00:24.480
you have you have to definitely get involved. It's it's

6
00:00:24.519 --> 00:00:27.800
a it's very cool and I'm gonna I might be

7
00:00:27.879 --> 00:00:30.879
off on this, but because you're in California, I'm in California,

8
00:00:30.920 --> 00:00:34.719
we're roughly around the same geographical location. Kind of gives

9
00:00:34.719 --> 00:00:38.479
me the old La Mantin vibes. Be honest, Yes, you

10
00:00:38.520 --> 00:00:40.920
know what I'm talking about. Yeah, it gives me that

11
00:00:40.960 --> 00:00:45.200
a bit, which is great. Ah, well kind of me too.

12
00:00:45.240 --> 00:00:47.479
I guess I might be a I don't know if

13
00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:49.799
I'm a little behind, probably, but regardless, you know, I

14
00:00:49.880 --> 00:00:53.039
listened to it as well. They're very prominent out there

15
00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:56.359
in the Bay Area, so uh yeah, I get those vibes.

16
00:00:56.399 --> 00:00:59.399
Really cool, except with without all the censorships.

17
00:00:59.399 --> 00:01:00.439
So there are some.

18
00:01:01.039 --> 00:01:07.079
There's some choice words, especially from our acquaintance Aaron. Yes,

19
00:01:07.120 --> 00:01:10.680
when he goes on his rants, which is great, it's funny.

20
00:01:11.319 --> 00:01:15.280
So let's let's just dive into it.

21
00:01:15.319 --> 00:01:17.519
Man. You know, there's been some stuff going on. But

22
00:01:17.519 --> 00:01:20.400
I want to get some background on you. What prompted

23
00:01:20.439 --> 00:01:24.760
you first, Let's say, what problems you to get into podcasting,

24
00:01:24.799 --> 00:01:27.400
because it seemed like everybody kind of did this around

25
00:01:27.439 --> 00:01:29.560
COVID when they were starting to pay attention to what

26
00:01:29.640 --> 00:01:33.000
was going on, decisions being made by the government California

27
00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:36.200
government for us, but also you know, federally, and people

28
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:39.040
were starting to realize, like, hold on, I haven't paid

29
00:01:39.079 --> 00:01:40.879
attention because I don't want to be bothered with politics,

30
00:01:40.879 --> 00:01:43.040
but now it's kind of hit me in the face.

31
00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:46.480
Was that your story or were you into this before that? Oh? No,

32
00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:49.319
I was in this before that twenty twelve. When I

33
00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:54.280
moved to Gilroy, California, because that's where I'm from. I

34
00:01:54.319 --> 00:01:57.359
was a voracious speaker or just I wanted to talk

35
00:01:57.400 --> 00:01:59.239
all the time. I mean, I love talking to people.

36
00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:01.680
I'm you know, I'm not a social butterfly. When I

37
00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:03.640
go into the room, I'm not you know, pastored up

38
00:02:03.640 --> 00:02:06.319
against the wall looking at everybody. I'm like, hey, i's

39
00:02:06.359 --> 00:02:08.879
going My name is you know, Bruce? Right here I go.

40
00:02:10.159 --> 00:02:12.719
I started out in the ministry at a church that

41
00:02:12.759 --> 00:02:16.759
I was attending back back in the day, and I

42
00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:23.879
became a a junior high school ministry. So being able

43
00:02:23.919 --> 00:02:25.960
to talk was was one of my things that I

44
00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:28.439
was able to do. And I and when I when

45
00:02:28.479 --> 00:02:31.319
I kind of got into the sphere of podcasting, it

46
00:02:31.360 --> 00:02:34.439
was only because of the fact that I was getting

47
00:02:34.439 --> 00:02:37.159
involved in politics. I was really dissatisfied with what was

48
00:02:37.199 --> 00:02:39.560
going on. And that was back in twenty twelve. I've

49
00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:42.400
already went through the two thousand and eight the bacle

50
00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:45.560
with with the with the financial meltdown and stuff like that.

51
00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:49.240
But I really started getting involved when I started hanging

52
00:02:49.280 --> 00:02:54.360
around with the liberal crowd here, which is unavoidable, Yeah,

53
00:02:54.400 --> 00:02:59.879
which is unavoidable area. But I decided, you know, i'll

54
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:03.240
podcasting came around. I started listening to different different podcasts.

55
00:03:03.240 --> 00:03:04.719
I think the first one that I listened to was

56
00:03:04.719 --> 00:03:08.439
to Jason staple in podcast. As I was commuting because

57
00:03:08.439 --> 00:03:10.159
it was my first time I ever had to commute

58
00:03:10.240 --> 00:03:12.599
from from one spot to another, which was a forty

59
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:14.280
five minute commute, I had a lot of time on

60
00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:16.639
my hands. I was born of I was boring radio.

61
00:03:17.599 --> 00:03:19.719
You know, Lamont and Tamali was on. I was fine,

62
00:03:19.840 --> 00:03:21.360
that was great, you know, but I was kind of

63
00:03:21.360 --> 00:03:24.759
beyond the music thing and beyond the Lamont and tamality thing.

64
00:03:24.919 --> 00:03:29.520
So I started listening to a guy named Jason Stapleton, libertarian,

65
00:03:29.759 --> 00:03:32.000
and I was kind of at that point in my

66
00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:35.879
political verse. I was going like, oh, that sounds cool.

67
00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:40.280
I think I'm a libertarian, you know. So so I

68
00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:43.240
decided to get partner up with my old co host,

69
00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:46.039
which his name was Doug, and we did this out

70
00:03:46.039 --> 00:03:49.039
of the same garage that I'm in now, a different setup,

71
00:03:49.080 --> 00:03:53.120
but we started podcasting. Then we started podcasting kind of

72
00:03:53.159 --> 00:03:56.360
like a what is the Hannity and Coombs type thing

73
00:03:56.439 --> 00:03:59.039
where I was the I was the independent kind of

74
00:03:59.039 --> 00:04:03.639
conservative guy. Doug was the liberal type guy that and

75
00:04:03.680 --> 00:04:06.439
we kind of argued back forth, great banter. The show

76
00:04:06.439 --> 00:04:08.879
went on for one hundred episodes, and then it just

77
00:04:08.960 --> 00:04:13.439
kind of faded away because Number one, uh, just we

78
00:04:13.479 --> 00:04:15.560
started drifting apart. It was one of those things where

79
00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:17.800
you know, you don't want to clash so much that

80
00:04:17.879 --> 00:04:20.720
you lose your friendship, and and things were getting kind

81
00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:23.000
of heated in the political realm. So we kind of

82
00:04:23.079 --> 00:04:28.120
decided to kind of around what year was that That

83
00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:32.319
had to be probably two thousand and sixteen to two.

84
00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:35.120
I was just going to tru yeah, right around the

85
00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:39.000
Trump era, as usually when most people's relationships start to disintegrate, you.

86
00:04:38.920 --> 00:04:41.199
Know, it started to strain a little bit, and we

87
00:04:41.319 --> 00:04:43.600
decided that, you know, our friendship was better than that,

88
00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:45.759
and so we decided to stop that.

89
00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:48.720
So it's a smart move. So we're still in touch. Then, yeah,

90
00:04:48.720 --> 00:04:50.240
we're still in touch. We still talk.

91
00:04:50.480 --> 00:04:52.560
And then at the same and at the same time,

92
00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:55.959
I got into a direct marketing business that I still

93
00:04:56.000 --> 00:05:00.759
have today, and I started doing a life live stream

94
00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:04.079
on Facebook which was called The Morning Drive, the same

95
00:05:04.199 --> 00:05:06.040
kind of like The Morning View, but it was just

96
00:05:06.160 --> 00:05:08.879
me and I was crying a podcast all the way through,

97
00:05:08.879 --> 00:05:11.839
which I don't do anymore because I'm a terrible It's hard.

98
00:05:12.120 --> 00:05:17.639
It's hard, it's tough. You make it very easy to

99
00:05:17.720 --> 00:05:18.600
do that, but I.

100
00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:20.680
Have a method of how I do, but it's not

101
00:05:21.199 --> 00:05:22.160
as easy as it seems.

102
00:05:22.319 --> 00:05:24.480
Yeah, but it's kind of evolved from there. So I've

103
00:05:24.480 --> 00:05:28.600
had several different podcasts underneath my belt, and just you know,

104
00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:30.839
going through this, these are the two most successful ones

105
00:05:30.920 --> 00:05:34.199
I've had for going forward with it. I've actually spent

106
00:05:34.279 --> 00:05:36.480
a lot of time in the last couple of weeks

107
00:05:37.199 --> 00:05:40.399
kind of doing getting the three businesses that I have

108
00:05:40.560 --> 00:05:43.199
other than my nine to five together to make a

109
00:05:43.399 --> 00:05:48.040
really kind of a full court assault on getting my

110
00:05:48.680 --> 00:05:50.480
entrepreneurial aspects going.

111
00:05:51.639 --> 00:05:54.160
So you're trying to push and expand into the podcasting

112
00:05:54.160 --> 00:05:57.040
arena more or or just all encompassing, Like, I.

113
00:05:57.120 --> 00:05:58.720
Still want to be independent. I don't want to be

114
00:05:58.720 --> 00:06:00.360
a big fit, you know, I want to don't want

115
00:06:00.360 --> 00:06:01.959
to be the big fish. You know, they don't want

116
00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:06.120
to be a popular fish in the big ocean.

117
00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:08.279
I mean, yeah, that that makes sense to me. You know,

118
00:06:09.360 --> 00:06:11.079
as you grow, and we've seen this with many other

119
00:06:11.480 --> 00:06:15.079
people in this space, is they they get the deal,

120
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:17.680
they get everything that they want, and then they're no

121
00:06:17.720 --> 00:06:20.319
longer themselves because now your sponsors and whoever's paying your

122
00:06:20.360 --> 00:06:22.240
check is telling you exactly what you're supposed to say.

123
00:06:22.879 --> 00:06:25.079
And and uh, that's not the road I'm going down either,

124
00:06:25.759 --> 00:06:30.199
to be honest. So that's great background there. But let

125
00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:33.199
me see, so when it comes to politics, I'm gonna

126
00:06:33.199 --> 00:06:33.839
I'm gonna ask you this.

127
00:06:33.879 --> 00:06:37.279
You're conservative, all right? Here, here's here's what.

128
00:06:37.560 --> 00:06:39.720
Here's the start of a conversation when we start getting

129
00:06:39.759 --> 00:06:43.240
a politics. Now, because I've seen a change and even

130
00:06:43.279 --> 00:06:46.120
with my audience, as I'm sure you know, because I've

131
00:06:46.240 --> 00:06:47.199
expressed it before.

132
00:06:47.839 --> 00:06:49.639
You know, it fluctuates. Uh.

133
00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:52.160
And I think people have a perception of who you're

134
00:06:52.199 --> 00:06:53.839
supposed to be versus what.

135
00:06:53.759 --> 00:06:54.560
You really are.

136
00:06:55.040 --> 00:06:57.600
So let's talk about MAGA and what you think MAGA

137
00:06:57.759 --> 00:07:02.040
is and and how they've been treating everybody who's a conservative.

138
00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:04.160
It's like, all of a sudden, if you have an

139
00:07:04.160 --> 00:07:07.240
opposite opinion, you're a traitor and they just they abandon you.

140
00:07:07.240 --> 00:07:08.839
And it kind of calls in the question whether or

141
00:07:08.879 --> 00:07:12.240
not there were your people in the first place, because

142
00:07:13.160 --> 00:07:16.000
right now, in my opinion, they seem to be very

143
00:07:16.079 --> 00:07:19.519
narrow and close minded on a lot of issues. But

144
00:07:19.639 --> 00:07:24.879
I still agree with the fundamental foundation of making America

145
00:07:24.920 --> 00:07:28.319
great again, and we're going to get there. It's gotten better.

146
00:07:28.639 --> 00:07:30.759
But what is your opinion on the MAGA crowd at

147
00:07:30.759 --> 00:07:34.040
this moment? And and I hope I'm not offending anything

148
00:07:33.800 --> 00:07:35.759
saying it's about a question.

149
00:07:35.920 --> 00:07:38.240
Yeah, it's the same thing I think about the far

150
00:07:38.360 --> 00:07:42.079
left in the same token, because you know, there's just

151
00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:45.959
these fringes that are outside of everything that I think

152
00:07:46.040 --> 00:07:49.720
that normal people think about. And you know, I've kind

153
00:07:49.720 --> 00:07:52.720
of broadbrushed a lot of my liberal friends that I

154
00:07:52.759 --> 00:07:56.639
have here in the South Valley here where I live,

155
00:07:56.879 --> 00:07:59.360
and I apologize for first of all, if anybody's watching this,

156
00:07:59.519 --> 00:08:02.519
you know a lot of a lot of that. But

157
00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:08.160
it's hard not to broadbrush when I just believe that

158
00:08:08.279 --> 00:08:13.480
silence says a lot, especially when people are vocal on

159
00:08:13.600 --> 00:08:16.480
social media on one thing and not as vocal as

160
00:08:16.519 --> 00:08:19.240
something that they did that they that they either agree

161
00:08:19.279 --> 00:08:23.720
with or disagree with you about on another on another level. Uh.

162
00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:28.839
That being said is that during this no Kings thing,

163
00:08:28.920 --> 00:08:31.720
let's just take the note things Kings thing, because that's

164
00:08:31.839 --> 00:08:35.960
I mean, that's just in front. I know a lot

165
00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:39.720
of people that went to No Kings. I look at

166
00:08:39.799 --> 00:08:41.639
them and I'm going like, you know, I'm just shaking

167
00:08:41.679 --> 00:08:43.519
my head. But it's not a magat thing that I'm

168
00:08:43.559 --> 00:08:47.279
shaking my head about. It's the fact that these were

169
00:08:47.279 --> 00:08:50.360
the same people that were silent during the era of

170
00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:52.879
which they had power, you know, the Biden era, the

171
00:08:52.960 --> 00:08:56.039
Aboma era. They were just silent about it. You know.

172
00:08:56.120 --> 00:08:58.799
But once you know, Trump got into office, or any

173
00:08:58.840 --> 00:09:02.320
Republican for that matter, or conservative gets into office, all

174
00:09:02.360 --> 00:09:04.559
of a sudden, everything is evil and everything is this,

175
00:09:04.639 --> 00:09:09.440
and everything is that it bugs me. It really bugs me.

176
00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:11.720
And to see the silence of some of the people

177
00:09:11.799 --> 00:09:13.600
that I know that are most vocal on my social

178
00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:16.080
media and my social circle that I that I that

179
00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:19.919
I have, it leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

180
00:09:20.159 --> 00:09:23.600
And it's one of those things where you have to

181
00:09:23.600 --> 00:09:28.600
make decisions, and sometimes you have to make hard decisions

182
00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:31.240
to what your circle of friends are. I mean, really,

183
00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:33.159
I mean I don't want to be into a crowd

184
00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:36.399
of people and then think that people are rolling their

185
00:09:36.440 --> 00:09:39.759
eyes and you know, and you know, giggling behind my back.

186
00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:41.600
I mean, I know a lot of people do. Yeah,

187
00:09:42.159 --> 00:09:44.279
it is what it is. It's a hard thing to

188
00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:47.720
do when, especially when you're in a family situation. My friends, uh,

189
00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:52.120
my personal friends share friendships with my wife and stuff

190
00:09:52.159 --> 00:09:54.080
like that, and I don't want that to bleed over

191
00:09:54.159 --> 00:09:56.840
to her, you know, And a lot of times, you know,

192
00:09:56.840 --> 00:10:00.080
they go like guilty by association if he's like that

193
00:10:00.159 --> 00:10:03.120
and she's like that, and it's just it makes stress

194
00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:05.480
all the way around. And uh yeah, that's what I

195
00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:07.480
kind of say about that. But as far as mag

196
00:10:07.600 --> 00:10:11.679
is concerned, I don't identify with Mega. I'm an American

197
00:10:11.679 --> 00:10:15.039
first type guy. I want our country to be prosperous.

198
00:10:15.080 --> 00:10:17.600
I want our country to be strong. I want a

199
00:10:17.639 --> 00:10:20.399
lot of things that Maga wants. But I'm not going

200
00:10:20.480 --> 00:10:23.840
to go off the deep end and be a fundamentalist

201
00:10:23.919 --> 00:10:26.360
about the way my career conservative views are.

202
00:10:27.080 --> 00:10:31.480
Hmm, yeah, I think that's the way. Well, that's how

203
00:10:31.519 --> 00:10:33.360
I see it. I'm gonna be honest. I've I've I've

204
00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:38.240
made that very clear. So with that being said, though, Bruce,

205
00:10:38.519 --> 00:10:43.360
there is a splintering in the Conservative Party, especially as

206
00:10:43.360 --> 00:10:45.600
of late. And you know, we have Maga, we have

207
00:10:45.799 --> 00:10:49.039
you know, the neo cons never really went away, they're

208
00:10:49.039 --> 00:10:52.120
still there. And then we have people you know that

209
00:10:52.240 --> 00:10:56.840
are becoming like the Thomas Massey crowd for example. It's

210
00:10:56.840 --> 00:10:59.879
not necessarily a movement or you know, but they're starting

211
00:10:59.879 --> 00:11:03.240
to shift over and like, wait a minute, you can't

212
00:11:03.279 --> 00:11:07.519
talk bad about Ram Paul or Thomas mass or anybody else.

213
00:11:08.039 --> 00:11:11.320
And now we have you know, followers going and saying

214
00:11:11.440 --> 00:11:13.679
I'm part of this group, this group, like I think

215
00:11:13.720 --> 00:11:16.360
there's like three or four different factions right now within

216
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:18.679
the Conservative Party itself. And then when you're when you're

217
00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:20.919
trying to call for unity, people get offended by that.

218
00:11:20.960 --> 00:11:22.799
Well, I can't side with you because.

219
00:11:22.519 --> 00:11:27.320
You're pro Israel, or you're not pro Israel, or it

220
00:11:27.320 --> 00:11:29.759
always comes down to freaking foreign relations, which is which

221
00:11:29.799 --> 00:11:32.039
is ridiculous. We just can't talk about America itself and

222
00:11:32.120 --> 00:11:36.840
what we need. But it's so splintered. Is this a

223
00:11:37.120 --> 00:11:43.399
sign of us losing or Conservatives losing control here really

224
00:11:43.440 --> 00:11:46.279
soon in the midterms and moving forward.

225
00:11:46.440 --> 00:11:48.279
I don't think so. I've thought about this a lot

226
00:11:48.320 --> 00:11:53.919
with the midterms, and I'm I think President Trump, and

227
00:11:53.759 --> 00:11:58.240
I said this during his first administration. The guy tweets

228
00:11:58.279 --> 00:12:00.559
like a like a heartbroken fourteen year old. I mean,

229
00:12:01.679 --> 00:12:04.759
he has he can't help himself. He can't help himself.

230
00:12:04.799 --> 00:12:08.240
And when he started his second term, he was really

231
00:12:08.279 --> 00:12:11.960
really kind of in the background of Twitter and all that,

232
00:12:12.039 --> 00:12:13.960
and then all of a sudden he started doing it

233
00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:17.840
all over again. And the policies that he's set forth

234
00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:21.840
I agree with, I mean pretty much so, but some

235
00:12:21.919 --> 00:12:25.120
of the promises that he made that he's broken. As

236
00:12:25.120 --> 00:12:28.200
far as the immigration stuff, the deportation and stuff, I

237
00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:30.679
don't agree with that stuff a lot of it. You know.

238
00:12:30.720 --> 00:12:33.240
I agree that we should go after the burst people

239
00:12:33.279 --> 00:12:36.080
that have crossed our border, but you know, somebody who's

240
00:12:36.080 --> 00:12:39.879
been here twenty thirty forty years and paying into the system,

241
00:12:40.679 --> 00:12:43.279
you know, has a business and things like that, because

242
00:12:43.320 --> 00:12:45.120
they had a traffic ticket, all of a sudden they're

243
00:12:45.120 --> 00:12:48.159
getting you know, called away in the immigration court and

244
00:12:48.720 --> 00:12:50.440
stuff like that. I don't agree with that. I didn't

245
00:12:50.480 --> 00:12:54.600
vote for that, But that being said, you know, we

246
00:12:54.720 --> 00:12:57.039
have to do something about our immigration system. They've been

247
00:12:57.080 --> 00:12:59.960
talking for decades. I mean I'm sixty five years old.

248
00:13:00.200 --> 00:13:03.279
I mean these things have been talked about since I

249
00:13:03.360 --> 00:13:07.159
was a kid, and we still haven't done anything about immigration.

250
00:13:07.639 --> 00:13:11.000
And they say, well, we're gonna we're working on comprehensive immigration. Well,

251
00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:13.200
comprehensive means we're never going to do anything about it.

252
00:13:13.519 --> 00:13:18.120
That That's the way that I've been following everything. Uh

253
00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:20.679
but yeah, I mean to get back online with the

254
00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:24.960
with their question is just like it's a weird situation

255
00:13:25.120 --> 00:13:30.320
with politics and and how we, uh we differ between

256
00:13:30.399 --> 00:13:33.480
Democrat and Republican. My old co host Doug which I'll

257
00:13:33.480 --> 00:13:37.080
refer back to the the old Weather Soul podcast, which

258
00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:40.080
was the podcast being him, had there was once a

259
00:13:40.080 --> 00:13:44.120
time where Democrats and Republicans are closely knit. I mean,

260
00:13:44.279 --> 00:13:46.720
we can you know, we had our differences, but you

261
00:13:46.759 --> 00:13:49.399
know they can reach behind the aisle and and and

262
00:13:49.440 --> 00:13:51.960
make deals and and right now that the rift is

263
00:13:52.120 --> 00:13:56.320
so far and it's because of those splinters, It's because

264
00:13:56.360 --> 00:13:58.919
of Mega, it's because of the far LEP progressives, the

265
00:13:58.960 --> 00:14:02.440
communist movement to socialists, the democratic socialist movement, whatever you

266
00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:05.639
want to call it. I think that we're so far

267
00:14:05.720 --> 00:14:07.919
off of the mark now. I don't know if there's

268
00:14:07.960 --> 00:14:08.679
no repair in it.

269
00:14:09.279 --> 00:14:12.399
Yeah, I think, especially well as far as I can

270
00:14:12.399 --> 00:14:14.360
recall anyway, Like in the nineties, it was a lot

271
00:14:15.480 --> 00:14:18.600
not as a contentent like not so contented or contentious

272
00:14:18.639 --> 00:14:22.840
the relationship and what I find like I'm gen X,

273
00:14:23.320 --> 00:14:25.360
you know, so the deal is like and you know,

274
00:14:25.440 --> 00:14:28.159
Aaron and other people and a lot of people and

275
00:14:28.200 --> 00:14:30.279
watch us won't know who we're talking about. But you know,

276
00:14:30.480 --> 00:14:33.320
Aaron I had to say it podcasts go check them out.

277
00:14:33.360 --> 00:14:35.759
It's worth your time. And his rants are just gold.

278
00:14:36.360 --> 00:14:39.879
But the the thing is is like a lot of

279
00:14:39.960 --> 00:14:43.200
us from that generation are actually just really old school Democrats.

280
00:14:43.240 --> 00:14:45.279
I mean that's how we're raised. We aligned a lot

281
00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:48.799
with you know, how that party then viewed things and

282
00:14:48.840 --> 00:14:53.279
what they looked looked after and stood up for. And

283
00:14:53.600 --> 00:14:56.240
you know, we realized that, like, are the conservative Is

284
00:14:56.240 --> 00:14:59.720
the Conservative Party really that far right? Or is it

285
00:14:59.759 --> 00:15:03.879
really just aligning with fundamental values that people really are

286
00:15:03.919 --> 00:15:06.639
looking for for our society to stay together and move

287
00:15:06.679 --> 00:15:09.360
together and keep America together. Now, yes, there's a far

288
00:15:09.440 --> 00:15:11.720
right faction absolutely, which is ridiculous. And you got it,

289
00:15:11.799 --> 00:15:13.639
like you said earlier, on both sides, you got far right,

290
00:15:13.639 --> 00:15:18.120
far left. I'm homeless. I think at this point, I'm thinking,

291
00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:20.039
you know, I could just say this. I know I'm conservative,

292
00:15:20.039 --> 00:15:22.000
but I'm not sure I aligned with a party anymore.

293
00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:24.759
I just know that I'm not left. You know, I'm

294
00:15:24.759 --> 00:15:28.039
not far anything because I've always taken the view that look,

295
00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:31.799
I think either side makes some decent points, but I'm

296
00:15:31.799 --> 00:15:33.759
not going to be all in on either side because

297
00:15:33.799 --> 00:15:36.639
I can't, you know, especially how I grew up and

298
00:15:36.919 --> 00:15:39.759
you know, you being in that Bay Area sphere, it's

299
00:15:39.759 --> 00:15:41.879
like it's too hard to just take a hard stance

300
00:15:41.919 --> 00:15:45.320
either way because you see people living, you interact with people,

301
00:15:45.360 --> 00:15:48.200
and you and you know you get it. You're like, yeah,

302
00:15:48.519 --> 00:15:50.080
I get it the way you live in what.

303
00:15:50.039 --> 00:15:51.840
You're going through. I understand how this affects you.

304
00:15:53.240 --> 00:15:54.799
All right, everyone, it's time for me to tell you

305
00:15:54.799 --> 00:15:58.879
about bear knuckles gloves. That's bear like a grizzly bear,

306
00:15:59.039 --> 00:16:04.799
so spelled eaar knuckles. And here's what I like about

307
00:16:04.799 --> 00:16:10.480
bare knuckles gloves. Barre knuckles gloves are durable, they're comfortable.

308
00:16:11.080 --> 00:16:13.919
They're made to protect your hands as they should while

309
00:16:13.960 --> 00:16:19.120
also reducing hand fatigue. They have a patented double wedge

310
00:16:19.240 --> 00:16:22.759
design which has a pre curve, so what that means

311
00:16:22.840 --> 00:16:25.919
is it actually fits your hands naturally. They're the glove

312
00:16:26.000 --> 00:16:28.240
to go to for anybody who works with their hands

313
00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:30.919
for a living. I myself from blue collar. I know

314
00:16:31.000 --> 00:16:33.840
that everybody out there listening to this right now who

315
00:16:33.840 --> 00:16:38.960
works in construction, works in farming. Gloves don't last. Most

316
00:16:38.960 --> 00:16:42.360
gloves aren't comfortable. They get the job done. But let's

317
00:16:42.360 --> 00:16:45.559
be honest, every big box retailer that you go to

318
00:16:45.759 --> 00:16:48.039
or big box hardware store the gloves off the shelf.

319
00:16:48.039 --> 00:16:50.799
They just they're done within a week or two at

320
00:16:50.799 --> 00:16:56.759
the most. Bare knuckles offers durability, offers comfort. They're among

321
00:16:56.799 --> 00:17:01.000
the best work gloves out there. And for listening to

322
00:17:01.080 --> 00:17:04.400
this show, and because I support blue collar all day,

323
00:17:04.440 --> 00:17:07.559

you can also go to my website world Ablaze podcast

333
00:17:38.640 --> 00:17:41.799
dot com. Go to the sponsors tab. Right there in

334
00:17:41.839 --> 00:17:45.359
the sponsors tab, you will find the link for bare Knuckles.

335
00:17:45.839 --> 00:17:48.240
Click on that takes you right to the site, and

336
00:17:48.319 --> 00:17:51.359
again put in my code world a Blaze to get

337
00:17:51.359 --> 00:17:54.200
your fifteen percent off, So I can I can come

338
00:17:54.200 --> 00:17:55.799
from that. Now I'm going to circle back to the

339
00:17:55.839 --> 00:17:59.440
immigration thing because I'm with you. I'm with you, but

340
00:17:59.440 --> 00:18:03.400
there's also the counter argument here. Okay, So the thing

341
00:18:03.440 --> 00:18:07.720
with it is it's not fair to the immigrants, as

342
00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:09.880
you said, we've been here for like ten twenty years.

343
00:18:10.400 --> 00:18:14.519
Counter to that is this, while it's not anybody's fault,

344
00:18:14.519 --> 00:18:17.079
it's not their fault, and it's not my fault or

345
00:18:17.079 --> 00:18:19.119
your fault. Like we'll get criticized for speaking on it.

346
00:18:19.440 --> 00:18:21.880
But it's not our fault that previous administrations didn't enforce

347
00:18:21.920 --> 00:18:24.920
the actual law that was already in place. So here

348
00:18:24.960 --> 00:18:27.599
we are at a tough spot because it's like, well,

349
00:18:27.599 --> 00:18:29.920
now we're going to enforce it, and people are like, well,

350
00:18:29.960 --> 00:18:31.759
I've been here for twenty years, why are you suddenly

351
00:18:31.839 --> 00:18:34.920
ripping me away from my family. Well, it's like if

352
00:18:34.920 --> 00:18:36.359
you rob a bank, the FBI is not going to

353
00:18:36.400 --> 00:18:39.240
stop looking for you. Eventually it catches up. Now I'm

354
00:18:39.240 --> 00:18:41.599
not saying that's right, Bruce, because I am agreeing with you,

355
00:18:41.640 --> 00:18:43.519
because I think we got to look at these people

356
00:18:43.519 --> 00:18:46.519
and say, well, twenty years, I get it. You can

357
00:18:46.559 --> 00:18:49.200
ask the question why did you not go through the

358
00:18:49.240 --> 00:18:50.680
process in that twenty years though?

359
00:18:50.720 --> 00:18:51.480
What stopped you?

360
00:18:51.559 --> 00:18:53.160
I have a friend person, right, I just had loans

361
00:18:53.160 --> 00:18:55.759
with them the other day, who is a younger guy.

362
00:18:55.799 --> 00:18:57.400
He started working with me when he was just out

363
00:18:57.400 --> 00:19:01.279
of high school, doing gigs and everything, and then he

364
00:19:01.440 --> 00:19:03.880
ended up going to college got his computer science degree.

365
00:19:03.920 --> 00:19:06.559
I mean, the guy's doing it right. He just got

366
00:19:06.559 --> 00:19:09.440
his citizenship this year. He's been working out the system.

367
00:19:09.480 --> 00:19:12.400
He's already planning to bring his wife over. But because

368
00:19:12.400 --> 00:19:15.000
of the consulate in Mexico and how everything's going where

369
00:19:15.039 --> 00:19:16.480
they're at and or so backed up they're not even

370
00:19:16.480 --> 00:19:18.119
going to be able to get an appointment till August

371
00:19:18.200 --> 00:19:20.759
of next year. So but they're waiting it out, they're

372
00:19:20.799 --> 00:19:22.119
doing it and how they have to do it.

373
00:19:23.720 --> 00:19:24.960
So I think that.

374
00:19:26.759 --> 00:19:29.880
We can't ignore the laws weren't enforced, and we could

375
00:19:29.920 --> 00:19:31.880
be hard and say, well, the law's the law, But

376
00:19:31.960 --> 00:19:32.519
with these.

377
00:19:32.359 --> 00:19:34.920
People that have been here, I think what we need

378
00:19:34.960 --> 00:19:35.279
to do.

379
00:19:35.279 --> 00:19:39.359
Is say, well, you got one over on us, period,

380
00:19:39.400 --> 00:19:41.720
and it's our fault for not enforcing the law, but

381
00:19:41.839 --> 00:19:43.200
you don't have a criminal record.

382
00:19:43.240 --> 00:19:45.880
You've been contributing. So here's what we're going to do.

383
00:19:45.920 --> 00:19:46.759
We're going to give you.

384
00:19:46.759 --> 00:19:50.039
This timeframe to get it right, and after that, if

385
00:19:50.039 --> 00:19:52.640
they still haven't done it, then you know what, they

386
00:19:52.680 --> 00:19:53.559
got enforced the law.

387
00:19:53.599 --> 00:19:54.480
That's way I look at it.

388
00:19:54.640 --> 00:19:57.440
But we do have to give them the opportunity because

389
00:19:57.440 --> 00:19:59.839
it's not their fault the law wasn't enforced. But it's also,

390
00:20:00.680 --> 00:20:03.000
you know, not our fault that they didn't take the

391
00:20:03.079 --> 00:20:06.279
steps and measures during that twenty ten whatever how many

392
00:20:06.279 --> 00:20:07.799
long they've been here to even try.

393
00:20:07.559 --> 00:20:08.759
To become a citizen. Yeah.

394
00:20:08.839 --> 00:20:12.680
Correct, So there's that other argument to it, and we

395
00:20:12.720 --> 00:20:14.480
do have to be empathetic, but we can't be so

396
00:20:14.599 --> 00:20:16.480
much to where we're giving the country away either, So

397
00:20:16.640 --> 00:20:19.400
we do have to give those people options for sure.

398
00:20:19.480 --> 00:20:22.519
With I agree with that. My take on it is

399
00:20:22.559 --> 00:20:29.279
that this is a media driven hyper be scared, hair

400
00:20:29.359 --> 00:20:32.559
on fire type issue, at least with the mainstream media,

401
00:20:32.599 --> 00:20:35.960
because they're not doing the what do you want to

402
00:20:35.960 --> 00:20:40.119
call it, the check in on what's going on with

403
00:20:40.160 --> 00:20:43.480
the headline news. Okay, you see the news in the

404
00:20:43.519 --> 00:20:46.759
Bay Area. Oh, they tackled a grandma and they've got

405
00:20:46.799 --> 00:20:49.640
the family guy from the courts as he was going

406
00:20:49.680 --> 00:20:52.400
in to checking his immigration status. 're going to immigration

407
00:20:52.480 --> 00:20:55.000
court and these people are being ripped away from their

408
00:20:55.000 --> 00:20:57.359
families and blah blah blah. But they're not doing the

409
00:20:57.400 --> 00:21:00.480
follow up reports on what really happened after the fact

410
00:21:00.519 --> 00:21:04.480
that that happened. Now, I would hope to think that

411
00:21:04.960 --> 00:21:08.240
when ICE is taking these people into detention, that they're

412
00:21:08.279 --> 00:21:10.480
actually doing some kind of hearing or something to get

413
00:21:10.519 --> 00:21:12.799
them through and say, Okay, well, you're a good guy.

414
00:21:12.839 --> 00:21:14.599
You know we're gonna let you go. We're sorry we

415
00:21:14.799 --> 00:21:17.359
tackled you, and you know you made headline news and

416
00:21:17.359 --> 00:21:20.880
stuff like that. I'm hoping that that that has happened,

417
00:21:20.920 --> 00:21:24.359
but there's no outlet for any of us to find

418
00:21:24.359 --> 00:21:26.880
out whether that has happened or not. You don't have

419
00:21:27.000 --> 00:21:29.559
to follow up from from the mainstream media because the

420
00:21:29.599 --> 00:21:33.559
mainstream media doesn't want you to know what's going on.

421
00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:37.160
K TV, you, k n TV, all these Bay area

422
00:21:37.640 --> 00:21:40.319
stations do not do any kind of follow up stuff

423
00:21:40.319 --> 00:21:44.039
about what's going on with the immigration status here or

424
00:21:44.079 --> 00:21:47.680
the immigration you know, policies that are happening here, and

425
00:21:47.720 --> 00:21:50.000
the arrests and the and whether or not you know,

426
00:21:50.039 --> 00:21:53.359
people are let go or deported or whatever. I haven't

427
00:21:53.359 --> 00:21:56.920
heard anything, so I have to take I have to

428
00:21:56.960 --> 00:22:00.200
take that news, and then I've got to dig to

429
00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:03.000
dig into X. I've got to dig into other sources

430
00:22:03.039 --> 00:22:05.359
because I just don't take things by by face value.

431
00:22:05.440 --> 00:22:07.880
So I kind of dig into it and to find

432
00:22:07.920 --> 00:22:09.680
out that, you know, a lot of these people are

433
00:22:09.720 --> 00:22:12.680
returned to their families and they go on and they

434
00:22:12.680 --> 00:22:16.160
have a you know, immigration lawyer or status. This it's

435
00:22:16.200 --> 00:22:17.720
going to cost them a lot of money, of course,

436
00:22:17.799 --> 00:22:21.359
because you know, quote they're they're not here legally. I

437
00:22:21.400 --> 00:22:25.039
think it's a shame that being said, you know, we

438
00:22:25.119 --> 00:22:28.559
have to fix the mainstream media, and unfortunately the mainstream

439
00:22:28.599 --> 00:22:32.599
media is actually taking a back seat to places like X,

440
00:22:33.119 --> 00:22:35.039
you know, and I think that's where we have to

441
00:22:35.119 --> 00:22:39.000
start getting our even with X, you know, with that said,

442
00:22:39.200 --> 00:22:41.680
a lot of hyperbole, a lot of AI, a lot

443
00:22:41.720 --> 00:22:44.119
of all this stuff, but you know, that's at least

444
00:22:44.119 --> 00:22:48.000
a place to start to go do your sourcing. And

445
00:22:48.279 --> 00:22:51.559
so that that's kind of where I'm at with it. Yeah,

446
00:22:51.599 --> 00:22:52.240
So the.

447
00:22:53.680 --> 00:22:56.119
This isn't a me respond to and disagreement, by the way,

448
00:22:56.119 --> 00:23:00.240
It's it's more reinforcing, which said, But the thing is

449
00:23:00.240 --> 00:23:02.160
is they don't want to give you the fallow up

450
00:23:02.160 --> 00:23:04.720
story because they'd be damned if there was a win

451
00:23:05.319 --> 00:23:07.960
or the other side. That's really what it is. But

452
00:23:08.000 --> 00:23:10.960
I put the fault on the people themselves. I mean,

453
00:23:11.000 --> 00:23:13.599
the everyday person who doesn't want their routine bothered by

454
00:23:14.240 --> 00:23:17.680
actual you know, politics or going past the headlines. You know,

455
00:23:18.000 --> 00:23:20.319
I've always said this. I say people live on the

456
00:23:20.359 --> 00:23:22.960
surface of information. They do not want to know more.

457
00:23:23.599 --> 00:23:26.400
They're just following their leaders, They're following their favorite podcasts,

458
00:23:26.440 --> 00:23:28.960
you know, Pod Save America. You know, screw those guys. Whatever,

459
00:23:29.200 --> 00:23:33.119
it's my opinion, but there's there's there's things like that

460
00:23:33.160 --> 00:23:35.200
going on where people just they want to live in

461
00:23:35.240 --> 00:23:35.599
the bubble.

462
00:23:35.599 --> 00:23:37.240
It makes them feel good and they don't want to

463
00:23:37.279 --> 00:23:37.920
be challenged.

464
00:23:38.559 --> 00:23:40.880
And as I said before, you know, when it comes

465
00:23:40.920 --> 00:23:43.599
to these issues like this is more current event issues,

466
00:23:43.799 --> 00:23:46.359
we can call it political, but it's because it has

467
00:23:46.440 --> 00:23:49.000
become political. But it was really just reinforcing laws that

468
00:23:49.000 --> 00:23:52.880
were being ignored, So it wasn't like this was something new, right,

469
00:23:53.839 --> 00:23:55.519
But I agree that there isn't a fall up because

470
00:23:55.519 --> 00:23:57.440
they don't want to show the wins. You know, they

471
00:23:57.440 --> 00:24:01.160
want to keep people separated, want people to not know

472
00:24:01.200 --> 00:24:04.039
the truth, so that they're just continually in conflict with

473
00:24:04.079 --> 00:24:04.559
each other.

474
00:24:05.160 --> 00:24:06.799
And this is all very well planned.

475
00:24:06.799 --> 00:24:08.720
I mean, I can get conspiratorial and say, well, they're

476
00:24:08.720 --> 00:24:10.640
trying to push us to fight with each other.

477
00:24:10.720 --> 00:24:12.759
Sure, let's, you know, let's have a civil war. Let's

478
00:24:12.839 --> 00:24:14.000
let's keep everybody.

479
00:24:13.599 --> 00:24:15.839
Busy while we secretly go behind and start, you know,

480
00:24:15.920 --> 00:24:18.279
instilling the policies that the World Economic Forum has been

481
00:24:18.319 --> 00:24:21.359
trying to push for all these years. Maybe, but that's

482
00:24:21.519 --> 00:24:25.160
you know, those are conspiracies. Possibly maybe legally we can

483
00:24:25.240 --> 00:24:28.279
go down the road later but you know, as far

484
00:24:28.279 --> 00:24:30.799
as as far as the immigration thing, like my dad's

485
00:24:30.799 --> 00:24:33.000
an immigrant, you know what I'm saying.

486
00:24:33.599 --> 00:24:34.279
I get it.

487
00:24:34.400 --> 00:24:36.559
I have friends that are immigrants. I grew up around nothing,

488
00:24:36.599 --> 00:24:40.079
but you know, people from Mexico. You know, I understand

489
00:24:40.240 --> 00:24:43.640
That's what. It doesn't mean that we can enforce policy,

490
00:24:43.839 --> 00:24:47.559
you know. And the reporting that is ignored to the

491
00:24:47.599 --> 00:24:51.359
follow up is an issue. It really is. So it

492
00:24:51.400 --> 00:24:54.240
seems like, you know, we're we're looking at this from

493
00:24:54.279 --> 00:24:56.960
a common sense perspective or what we what used to

494
00:24:56.960 --> 00:24:59.240
be common sense. I'm not sure how common sense is anymore.

495
00:25:00.359 --> 00:25:04.160
But let's let's touch on what you brought up earlier.

496
00:25:04.559 --> 00:25:08.759
What's your take on this no king's protests? Because I thought,

497
00:25:09.000 --> 00:25:11.680
I mean, we haven't had a king, you know, seventeen

498
00:25:11.759 --> 00:25:14.079
seventy six. I think, you know, just when we we

499
00:25:14.160 --> 00:25:16.960
acknowledge that we would never have a king, right, I'm

500
00:25:16.960 --> 00:25:19.079
not really sure where they're coming from. I mean, because

501
00:25:19.119 --> 00:25:21.799
they don't like policies that are put in place that

502
00:25:21.799 --> 00:25:25.519
they disagree with, that we suddenly have Donald Trump acting

503
00:25:25.559 --> 00:25:26.160
as a king.

504
00:25:26.880 --> 00:25:30.319
I would have more respect for the people that went

505
00:25:30.400 --> 00:25:34.119
to the protest if they would just call it. I

506
00:25:34.160 --> 00:25:37.720
hate Donald Trump protests. That's it, you know, that's it.

507
00:25:37.960 --> 00:25:40.880
I mean, the I mean everything is face value. I mean,

508
00:25:40.880 --> 00:25:43.279
if you take no kings and face value, that's what

509
00:25:43.319 --> 00:25:46.200
you're looking at, right, Okay, so the protest isn't about

510
00:25:46.200 --> 00:25:49.519
no kings. You don't have a king, you know, Burton King, right,

511
00:25:49.599 --> 00:25:51.319
you know, we have the King of Rock, you know.51200:25:51.359 --> 00:25:54.400



And yeah, it's it's silly. And like I said, I51300:25:54.400 --> 00:25:56.640



would have more respect for them if they said, you know,51400:25:56.759 --> 00:26:00.960



this is an I hate Donald Trump protest. Great fantastics.51500:26:01.079 --> 00:26:03.640



You can get behind that. You know, you're spot on,51600:26:04.599 --> 00:26:07.720



you know, and it's just weird. I did. I crunched51700:26:07.720 --> 00:26:12.200



the numbers yesterday and and actually, uh, my numbers were51800:26:12.279 --> 00:26:15.799



kind of high because I went through this. I used Rock,51900:26:15.880 --> 00:26:18.880



and I used the AI, used the chat GTP and52000:26:18.880 --> 00:26:21.960



and basically, uh, GROC was pretty straightforward with that. I52100:26:22.000 --> 00:26:24.599



love chat g TP. They does a lot of good52200:26:24.599 --> 00:26:28.039



things for me. Uh But uh, now the A, now52300:26:28.079 --> 00:26:30.119



that we have a I it's just another thing to52400:26:30.279 --> 00:26:32.480



argue with, you know. So now I'm arguing with the computer,52500:26:32.720 --> 00:26:36.519



all right, Right, part of it finally got it to52600:26:36.680 --> 00:26:39.039



uh to uh to say what I wanted it to say.52700:26:39.039 --> 00:26:40.920



But you can get anybody to say what you want52800:26:40.960 --> 00:26:43.200



to say, right pretty much. But the fact of the52900:26:43.240 --> 00:26:45.799



matter is is that you had seven million people yesterday53000:26:45.839 --> 00:26:49.599



that uh that attended these uh these rallies, and the53100:26:49.640 --> 00:26:51.319



media is out there going like, oh, this is the53200:26:51.400 --> 00:26:57.039



biggest freaking protest American protests that ever happened. Fine, that's great.53300:26:57.559 --> 00:26:59.720



My my co host now for the Weather Report, Ken53400:26:59.759 --> 00:27:05.079



Would He says that stuff moves the needle. The essence53500:27:05.119 --> 00:27:07.920



of what was happening in the protest yesterday is that53600:27:07.960 --> 00:27:11.319



the Democrats are on their back heels right now. They53700:27:11.359 --> 00:27:14.400



need to get voters out. They need at least one53800:27:14.440 --> 00:27:18.039



million new voters on the rolls to at least kind53900:27:18.039 --> 00:27:23.160



of do some kind of swinging to change the midterm elections.54000:27:23.200 --> 00:27:27.000



That's a tall order right now to get, especially in54100:27:27.039 --> 00:27:31.240



the volatile environment that we have in the political spectrum. Yesterday,54200:27:31.680 --> 00:27:35.039



like I said, they had seven million people. One point54300:27:35.119 --> 00:27:38.079



nine people or one point nine million people were at54400:27:38.079 --> 00:27:42.920



college football games yesterday. Another forty five million people were54500:27:43.000 --> 00:27:47.599



watching from their homes or whatever platforms it is for54600:27:49.000 --> 00:27:54.200



college football, whatever everybody else was doing. Beyond that seven54700:27:54.200 --> 00:27:56.920



million people, which is one hundred and fifty five million54800:27:56.920 --> 00:28:00.759



people who voted in the twenty twenty four election. That's54900:28:00.799 --> 00:28:04.559



exactly that seven million people is a small small number.55000:28:05.039 --> 00:28:08.880



In fact, it's about six percent of the people that voted,55100:28:09.839 --> 00:28:10.440



that voted.55200:28:10.599 --> 00:28:12.759



And and let's let's look at this number, so three55300:28:12.880 --> 00:28:17.000



hundred and thirty million people population, and let's take voters55400:28:17.039 --> 00:28:18.799



out of it. And I'm not gonna I don't know55500:28:18.839 --> 00:28:20.720



what the actual number of people who are eligible to55600:28:20.799 --> 00:28:22.599



vote in terms of age and whatnot, but if you55700:28:22.680 --> 00:28:25.039



just take it by population, that's just barely over a55800:28:25.079 --> 00:28:26.079



little over two percent.55900:28:26.200 --> 00:28:30.519



Yes, yeah, So that numbers mean something. That numbers mean something.56000:28:30.559 --> 00:28:34.160



It really does. And I think that in my in56100:28:34.240 --> 00:28:36.839



my estimation, it was a huge it was a huge56200:28:36.880 --> 00:28:41.039



protest good. It was a huge protest a failure by56300:28:41.160 --> 00:28:44.240



all me, I think, I really do. I don't think56400:28:44.599 --> 00:28:46.279



it might have moved the needle, or it might have56500:28:46.359 --> 00:28:48.799



made everybody in the you know, the progressives and the56600:28:48.960 --> 00:28:51.680



and and the disgruntal Republicans that might have malt them,56700:28:51.759 --> 00:28:54.200



made them feel good that they ran around with signs56800:28:54.200 --> 00:28:56.359



and everything and they were circle jerking whatever they wanted56900:28:56.359 --> 00:28:58.839



to do, right, But to me, it was a it57000:28:58.880 --> 00:29:01.440



was a huge failures are as a political movement. I57100:29:01.440 --> 00:29:04.599



mean it didn't move me. No, it didn't.57200:29:04.680 --> 00:29:08.720



And just like the last protests that they did, there's57300:29:08.720 --> 00:29:11.599



no Kings. It's like they have to keep doing it57400:29:11.640 --> 00:29:13.920



because it's apparently not effective.57500:29:14.799 --> 00:29:15.359



I don't think.57600:29:15.440 --> 00:29:17.920



And if you've got lesson too or a roughly round57700:29:17.920 --> 00:29:20.559



two percent or so of the population of the United57800:29:20.599 --> 00:29:24.279



States of America actually participating. And then also look at57900:29:24.799 --> 00:29:27.000



let's look at the generation of people that are participating.58000:29:27.039 --> 00:29:29.759



From what I see in videos, it's not younger people,58100:29:30.640 --> 00:29:34.359



It really isn't, you know, Yeah, but you know, okay,58200:29:34.359 --> 00:29:37.920



so your generation, let's just sabers. But regardless, you know58300:29:38.720 --> 00:29:41.680



that in and of itself speaks volumes because it's it's58400:29:41.720 --> 00:29:44.640



telling you that the future, the people who are going58500:29:44.720 --> 00:29:50.079



to drive the future of this country are not bought in. No,58600:29:50.559 --> 00:29:52.640



you know, it's a Saturday. You can't say that they're58700:29:52.680 --> 00:29:54.440



all working and stressed out. You know a lot of58800:29:54.440 --> 00:29:56.480



people have days off on Saturday. What was their excuse58900:29:56.519 --> 00:29:59.599



for not showing up and supporting if this no King's59000:29:59.680 --> 00:30:03.559



movement and is exactly what represents how people feel in America,59100:30:03.599 --> 00:30:04.519



because it fucking doesn't.59200:30:04.559 --> 00:30:05.200



It just doesn't.59300:30:05.319 --> 00:30:07.880



Absolutely, you know, it's just a bunch of whining cuts59400:30:07.960 --> 00:30:09.599



man just going out there trying to get attention.59500:30:09.720 --> 00:30:12.720



That's all it is, exactly. And the and the culture59600:30:12.759 --> 00:30:15.960



shift also takes a lot a lot into uh consideration59700:30:16.799 --> 00:30:19.400



when they're doing that. So you had you had the two,59800:30:20.000 --> 00:30:22.880



You had the old people like us, the old hippies,59900:30:22.920 --> 00:30:26.480



even even my parents. The older people than that. Those60000:30:26.480 --> 00:30:28.599



are the ones that were out there. Probably a lot60100:30:28.599 --> 00:30:31.160



of boomers were out there, of course, because there are60200:30:31.200 --> 00:30:33.200



some people my age, like I said that, I know60300:30:33.240 --> 00:30:36.359



that went to the to the rallies yesterday. And then60400:30:36.359 --> 00:30:38.799



you've got the fringe Democrats that were out there. I60500:30:38.799 --> 00:30:41.880



don't think that there was a lot of what I60600:30:41.920 --> 00:30:47.480



want to say, you know, the people with people with60700:30:47.559 --> 00:30:50.680



the bullnose rings. People will tell yeah, you know all60800:30:50.720 --> 00:30:53.599



that they're out there screaming and hollering and certain kind60900:30:53.599 --> 00:30:55.920



of borders out there that are kind of cherry picking61000:30:55.960 --> 00:30:58.720



who they're interviewing and going like, well, these people are dumb,61100:30:58.720 --> 00:31:00.880



they don't even know what the hell they're here for it,61200:31:01.240 --> 00:31:04.279



and stuff like that. I think the movement had a61300:31:04.839 --> 00:31:09.279



had an issue with with just the general base value61400:31:09.440 --> 00:31:11.599



of what it was, Like you said a bunch of61500:31:11.640 --> 00:31:14.319



cry babies. I really think that it was a cry61600:31:14.359 --> 00:31:17.279



baby thing. We didn't win. Our king isn't in power61700:31:17.720 --> 00:31:19.680



and your king is, and we're going to do everything61800:31:19.720 --> 00:31:21.599



that we can to get your king out of power61900:31:21.640 --> 00:31:24.720



so our king can roll. But still in that fact,62000:31:24.839 --> 00:31:25.559



there's no king.62100:31:26.039 --> 00:31:29.920



He was elected, and I agree, I mean, that's just62200:31:30.000 --> 00:31:31.240



what it is. I mean, if he was a king,62300:31:31.480 --> 00:31:35.480



why can we still not get his nominees to be62400:31:35.519 --> 00:31:37.680



approved and move forward? Like there's still hang ups on62500:31:37.720 --> 00:31:41.200



that he could just say, I don't care. These guys62600:31:41.200 --> 00:31:44.160



are in that's it, you know. Why Why is there62700:31:44.200 --> 00:31:48.160



certain legislation that he approves or even through executive orders62800:31:48.200 --> 00:31:50.480



that you know, people push back on or goes to62900:31:50.519 --> 00:31:50.920



the courts.63000:31:50.920 --> 00:31:52.200



If he was king, we wouldn't have that.63100:31:52.240 --> 00:31:53.720



If people just shut the hell up and just say,63200:31:53.720 --> 00:31:55.400



all right, well that's what he said, you got to63300:31:55.400 --> 00:31:57.359



go with it. Yeah, you know, So there's all there's63400:31:57.400 --> 00:32:00.480



Obviously he's obviously not a king. They just don't like that.63500:32:00.519 --> 00:32:04.559



He's upset in the norm right and pushing back against63600:32:04.559 --> 00:32:08.000



the system. Whether you agree with him or not doesn't matter,63700:32:08.000 --> 00:32:11.480



but he's just stirring things up. The thing that you63800:32:11.519 --> 00:32:14.880



said earlier is very true. Though, regardless of the cherry63900:32:14.920 --> 00:32:17.519



picking of who they interview these people, most of these64000:32:17.519 --> 00:32:19.960



people that get behind these movements don't even know why64100:32:19.960 --> 00:32:23.759



they're there. The fundamental reason that the snow kingsting is64200:32:23.799 --> 00:32:25.440



even going on is exactly what you said. They just64300:32:25.440 --> 00:32:26.200



hate Donald Trump.64400:32:26.240 --> 00:32:30.759

We talked Prop fifty.68600:34:40.760 --> 00:34:43.440



And when we're talking about Prop fifty, you know, and68700:34:43.480 --> 00:34:45.599



you're in California, so you know, very relevant to you.68800:34:46.480 --> 00:34:50.480



We discussed the reasoning behind it, what the intent is,68900:34:50.519 --> 00:34:54.719



the truth and the consequences. And one of the things69000:34:54.760 --> 00:34:56.800



I stood out is what he experienced what I experienced,69100:34:56.840 --> 00:34:58.760



which is relating to what you just said by them,69200:34:58.800 --> 00:35:01.800



I'm I'm getting there. You know what it is is69300:35:02.000 --> 00:35:04.360



people don't know why they even support Prop fifty. I've69400:35:04.360 --> 00:35:07.719



had this conversation with friends the other night and they're69500:35:07.719 --> 00:35:10.639



bringing it up because they've discovered my podcast. So now69600:35:10.639 --> 00:35:13.480



it's like, and I appreciate it. I do that I69700:35:13.519 --> 00:35:18.599



get the support from them. But what happens is I69800:35:18.679 --> 00:35:21.079



started asking the question, Okay, great, let's get down to69900:35:21.119 --> 00:35:24.719



the root of it. Why do you support it? They70000:35:24.719 --> 00:35:28.039



don't even really know. They just know, well, you know,70100:35:28.079 --> 00:35:30.920



Texas did this and Republicans and you know that's not right,70200:35:30.960 --> 00:35:34.519



and so okay, but you know the thing with Texas70300:35:34.599 --> 00:35:37.000



is that was actually a court order mandate that was70400:35:37.000 --> 00:35:39.719



actually put off for years that they're being forced to70500:35:39.719 --> 00:35:41.960



do regardless because when they tried to do it earlier,70600:35:42.320 --> 00:35:44.320



the courts found it. I think it was a two70700:35:44.360 --> 00:35:47.440



thousand and it might be off three want somewhere in there. Anyway,70800:35:47.920 --> 00:35:49.519



when they tried to do it a long time ago70900:35:49.639 --> 00:35:52.800



thirteen I can't recall pers but anyway, people you can71000:35:52.840 --> 00:35:54.679



look it up. When they try to do it before71100:35:54.679 --> 00:35:57.719



the courts found that it was illegal, it wasn't right, Like,71200:35:57.719 --> 00:35:59.280



hold on, what are you guys trying to do? So71300:35:59.320 --> 00:36:01.519



they got involved and they're like no, no, no, you71400:36:01.960 --> 00:36:04.079



have to readjust all this. So here we are and71500:36:04.119 --> 00:36:06.440



this is what Texas is going through. And then you71600:36:06.519 --> 00:36:10.000



got Gavin Newsom, who's nothing more than I mean, he's71700:36:10.000 --> 00:36:14.079



just a little dictator himself. Absolutely yeah, he's a funck71800:36:14.159 --> 00:36:14.599



trd dude.71900:36:14.599 --> 00:36:14.880



Really.72000:36:15.119 --> 00:36:18.719



So the thing with Newsom is he's just he hates72100:36:18.760 --> 00:36:20.639



Trump too, That's all it is. He's he's running for72200:36:20.760 --> 00:36:23.400



president without even saying it or acknowledge. He's been doing72300:36:23.440 --> 00:36:26.880



it for years. And this whole thing, as you know,72400:36:27.119 --> 00:36:31.719



is nothing more than an attempt to keep Democrats in power. Absolutely,72500:36:32.199 --> 00:36:34.760



we have what I don't know. If I don't know72600:36:34.800 --> 00:36:37.039



if we have the most delegates, you correct me on that.72700:36:37.559 --> 00:36:38.599



Do we have the most delegates?72800:36:38.639 --> 00:36:40.280



I'm not sure if we have the most delegates. I72900:36:40.280 --> 00:36:41.840



know that we have a huge amount of delegates. We73000:36:42.039 --> 00:36:44.239



have a lot. Fact, we have a lot. I should73100:36:44.360 --> 00:36:47.280



know that. I should know that as long as our73200:36:47.280 --> 00:36:50.239



personal you know, our population dictates that we have a73300:36:50.239 --> 00:36:50.960



lot of delegates.73400:36:51.559 --> 00:36:54.079



Yeah, but anyway we have we have where the state73500:36:54.119 --> 00:36:56.920



that matters when it comes to voting for the president period,73600:36:57.840 --> 00:36:59.639



and we do sway the vote quite a bit due73700:36:59.679 --> 00:37:01.719



to themount of delegates we have. So this whole thing73800:37:01.760 --> 00:37:04.599



with fifty is doing nothing more to ensure that the73900:37:04.639 --> 00:37:08.480



future of the presidency is tilted much more in the74000:37:08.519 --> 00:37:11.880



favor of the Democrat Party. And so people are saying, well,74100:37:11.920 --> 00:37:14.800



I oppose Prop fifty because I oppose what Donald Trump's74200:37:14.800 --> 00:37:17.320



administration is doing. Well, it's not Donald Trump that is74300:37:18.199 --> 00:37:23.199



telling everybody to redistrict. We redistrict every ten years unless74400:37:23.199 --> 00:37:24.440



there's a special circumstance.74500:37:24.559 --> 00:37:24.719



Right.74600:37:25.119 --> 00:37:29.239



So the thing with this, what's going on with California74700:37:29.280 --> 00:37:31.440



and them trying to do this, is just trying to74800:37:31.519 --> 00:37:35.440



ensure that they remain in control or that they can74900:37:35.480 --> 00:37:38.000



grab control on the presidency. But what people don't understand75000:37:38.000 --> 00:37:40.639



is if you hate Donald Trump and you think this75100:37:40.679 --> 00:37:42.519



is a good reason to do this, you're also ignoring75200:37:42.599 --> 00:37:45.320



the future of California, though you're not looking at it75300:37:45.320 --> 00:37:48.000



from that view, because as we move forward, look, conservatives75400:37:48.000 --> 00:37:52.079



are already underrepresented in California as it is, and the75500:37:52.599 --> 00:37:56.079



argument from the California government, more from Newsome and his cronies,75600:37:56.159 --> 00:37:58.119



is well, it's going to go back in twenty thirty.75700:37:58.960 --> 00:38:01.559



Okay, so from from.75800:38:01.400 --> 00:38:04.000



Twenty six on to twenty thirty is supposed to go75900:38:04.079 --> 00:38:06.800



back with that does kind of conveniently line back up76000:38:06.840 --> 00:38:10.719



with when we're supposed to redistrict anyway. So and then76100:38:10.760 --> 00:38:12.800



at the same time, it's like we've never seen anywhere76200:38:12.800 --> 00:38:15.199



in history. We're in government where if we give them76300:38:15.199 --> 00:38:18.679



a little to give it back. So people are not76400:38:18.679 --> 00:38:21.079



not seeing the whole picture here. I don't know what76500:38:21.119 --> 00:38:23.440



your opinion is on Prop fifty, but you know, I76600:38:23.480 --> 00:38:25.199



did have that conversation, so I thought i'd bring it76700:38:25.280 --> 00:38:26.280



up and see what you think.76800:38:26.599 --> 00:38:29.519



Yeah, Well, Proposition fifty, which I've already voted on, I76900:38:29.639 --> 00:38:32.039



turned in my mail in ballot, you know, because you know,77000:38:32.199 --> 00:38:34.880



that's just why I do it. To me, this little77100:38:34.960 --> 00:38:38.079



special election, mail it in. They can just do it,77200:38:38.559 --> 00:38:41.159



and I did so, you know, I vote no on77300:38:41.280 --> 00:38:45.199



everything anyway, so it just doesn't matter. But whatever the77400:38:45.239 --> 00:38:52.360



case may be. No, But Proposition fifty is a like77500:38:52.400 --> 00:38:55.800



you said, it's a ploy to be able to bolster77600:38:55.840 --> 00:38:59.960



the Democratic Party into just keeping their power in California.77700:39:00.039 --> 00:39:02.760



As as long as I remember, Democrats have been in77800:39:02.840 --> 00:39:07.440



power since about the time you know, just before you know,77900:39:07.440 --> 00:39:11.599



when Duke Major and all those people were in power there,78000:39:11.840 --> 00:39:16.599



and the Assembly of California has been Democratic since then,78100:39:16.639 --> 00:39:19.960



even during the orned Soursenager years. We have to stay78200:39:20.000 --> 00:39:22.599



wrong a strong Democratic presence, and now they have a78300:39:22.639 --> 00:39:26.800



super majority, they want to keep that supermajority. Twenty ten,78400:39:26.920 --> 00:39:29.840



we voted the fact that we wanted an independent citizen78500:39:29.920 --> 00:39:33.440



Council to go ahead do districting in California. I think78600:39:33.440 --> 00:39:35.199



it's a slap in the face of the people in78700:39:35.280 --> 00:39:38.079



California to be able to be in support of something78800:39:38.119 --> 00:39:41.800



where a political party and Assembly can take control of78900:39:41.840 --> 00:39:46.119



those districts and be able to rewrite them as whenever79000:39:46.119 --> 00:39:48.079



they want to. Because every ten years we have to79100:39:48.159 --> 00:39:55.559



anyway by census. I think disenfranchises the people that are79200:39:55.599 --> 00:39:59.039



in the redder parts of more conservative parts of California79300:39:59.119 --> 00:40:02.760



because they're you know, as much as the bedroom Like79400:40:02.800 --> 00:40:06.840



I live in Gilroy, so it's a bedroom community. It79500:40:06.880 --> 00:40:10.840



extends out to here, you know, the districting extends out here,79600:40:11.079 --> 00:40:14.239



but it even extends out past that, and it goes79700:40:14.280 --> 00:40:17.480



out into the Central Valley and to the agricultural places79800:40:17.519 --> 00:40:19.800



and stuff where people seem to be a little bit79900:40:19.840 --> 00:40:23.960



more conservative than liberal. And I think it's a travesty.80000:40:24.039 --> 00:40:27.480



I think it's a bad move for California. But California80100:40:27.559 --> 00:40:30.440



is used to making bad moves. I mean that's just80200:40:30.440 --> 00:40:32.920



the way it is. The Democrats have a stronghold. They80300:40:32.960 --> 00:40:35.920



don't want conservatives here. They want us all out, which80400:40:36.000 --> 00:40:37.960



is fine. I say, Frea can move out and let80500:40:38.000 --> 00:40:40.880



the damn places burn down their ground. But I love California.80600:40:41.039 --> 00:40:43.719



I mean, I was born and raised here. I'm not80700:40:43.760 --> 00:40:46.400



ready to give up yet, and I'm gonna sit around80800:40:46.440 --> 00:40:48.400



and see what happens, whether it kills me or whether80900:40:48.440 --> 00:40:50.880



I prosper from it. Yeah.81000:40:50.960 --> 00:40:55.519



The redistricting thing that peoplen't understand is it's not just81100:40:55.599 --> 00:40:57.519



moving the lines, you know, and people don't understand what81200:40:57.760 --> 00:41:01.360



the differences between redistricting and jerrymandering, which is exactly what81300:41:01.400 --> 00:41:05.400



they're intending to do and what this is gonna do.81400:41:05.440 --> 00:41:07.960



I'm I'm gonna give an example, Like we know you81500:41:08.039 --> 00:41:10.639



may know that like District three and five in California,81600:41:10.639 --> 00:41:15.239



which is roughly as you said, Central Valley, is conservative.81700:41:15.760 --> 00:41:18.920



But in this redistricting, what may even happen is they'll81800:41:18.960 --> 00:41:22.760



combine three and five into one district, which dilutes its81900:41:22.840 --> 00:41:25.760



power when it comes to voting for issues in California.82000:41:26.559 --> 00:41:29.760



Another tactic they will use is they might take some82100:41:29.920 --> 00:41:34.079



Democrats from this district move it over to another one,82200:41:34.480 --> 00:41:37.960



so also further diluting the voting power and consensus of82300:41:38.000 --> 00:41:40.000



a district that may have been read but now we're82400:41:40.039 --> 00:41:42.880



looking at it being purple. So they know what they're82500:41:42.920 --> 00:41:45.800



doing and what they're trying to do. There's even conservative82600:41:45.880 --> 00:41:48.880



districts up in far North when she gets starting up82700:41:48.920 --> 00:41:51.400



into the Napa area and past that they're trying to82800:41:51.480 --> 00:41:54.920



rope into a more democratic district now, which is what82900:41:54.960 --> 00:41:57.639



they're trying to trying to do. So yeah, they're pretty83000:41:57.679 --> 00:42:04.679



much screwing California over yeah, and that's what people aren't seeing, like, Okay, cool,83100:42:04.760 --> 00:42:06.559



you hate Donald Trump, you don't want to you don't83200:42:06.559 --> 00:42:09.960



want to have a Republican president going forward, whatever. But83300:42:10.079 --> 00:42:11.920



the reality is you got to look at, as a83400:42:11.920 --> 00:42:14.440



resident of California, what it's gonna do for California moving forward.83500:42:14.480 --> 00:42:17.440



And if that's the precedent in that, while you can83600:42:17.480 --> 00:42:20.400



screw conservatives of California over if it ever flips the83700:42:20.440 --> 00:42:23.480



other way, you've already put into place school now you're83800:42:23.480 --> 00:42:25.119



on the other side of it, and you're gonna be83900:42:25.199 --> 00:42:29.400



crying about how you're not represented. So that's what people84000:42:29.400 --> 00:42:31.360



are not understanding. You know, it's not you can't just84100:42:31.400 --> 00:42:33.840



have this knee jerk reaction to like I hate Donald Trump,84200:42:33.840 --> 00:42:35.840



so fuck Cam and I'm not gonna okay, great, but84300:42:36.119 --> 00:42:38.880



there's other ways to approach that. But you're given your84400:42:38.960 --> 00:42:42.159



rights away right now. And while you may be benefiting84500:42:42.159 --> 00:42:44.199



from it now because you have the supermajority, in the84600:42:44.199 --> 00:42:47.440



future California is gonna be screwed because you already put84700:42:47.480 --> 00:42:51.800



into place what is acceptable and when it becomes fully Republican,84800:42:51.800 --> 00:42:54.119



for example, they're gonna run with that. And there's nothing84900:42:54.119 --> 00:42:55.880



you could do with it, they'll just go, oh yeah,85000:42:55.880 --> 00:42:57.679



but you know matter twenty twenty five.85100:42:58.960 --> 00:43:01.880



So it'll never see to amaze me the stupidity of85200:43:01.920 --> 00:43:03.559



the political parties.85300:43:04.280 --> 00:43:07.039



And again, you know, it comes down, uh to the85400:43:07.079 --> 00:43:09.679



average persons. I hate I hate calling people stupid cause85500:43:09.679 --> 00:43:11.639



I don't think they are. I just think they don't.85600:43:11.679 --> 00:43:13.599



They don't want to be bothered or so overwhelmed with85700:43:13.639 --> 00:43:17.079



their daily routines that they just don't have time. Point85800:43:17.079 --> 00:43:18.639



in case, you know, I go on threads once in85900:43:18.679 --> 00:43:21.400



a while, which I recommend you don't. It's it's accessful,86000:43:21.679 --> 00:43:23.639



But I go on threads once in a while. And86100:43:23.800 --> 00:43:25.639



what I'll do is I will go down the rabbit86200:43:25.679 --> 00:43:28.199



hole of arguing with people just for entertainment. And I86300:43:28.199 --> 00:43:29.440



don't do it all the time, but every once while86400:43:29.440 --> 00:43:31.599



I get in the mood. And what I did is86500:43:31.639 --> 00:43:33.480



I typed in Prop fifty just to see what people86600:43:33.480 --> 00:43:37.800



are thinking on that side. And almost everybody that was86700:43:37.840 --> 00:43:40.320



talking about it was referring to the advertisements that they86800:43:40.360 --> 00:43:40.800



were seeing.86900:43:41.000 --> 00:43:42.079



Oh god, it's terrible.87000:43:42.360 --> 00:43:44.639



I'm like, hold on your Your entire basis for how87100:43:44.639 --> 00:43:46.679



you're going to vote is based on the advertisement you87200:43:46.719 --> 00:43:47.159



agree with.87300:43:47.599 --> 00:43:50.920



It's terrible that is so terrible. It's terrible. That's the problem.87400:43:51.000 --> 00:43:52.679



I mean, if you want to flip something real quick,87500:43:52.920 --> 00:43:55.719



let's go to Prop A, which is the California thing87600:43:55.840 --> 00:43:58.920



where you know we got we lost the federal funding87700:43:58.960 --> 00:44:04.760



to the hospitals and up and the the the advertisement87800:44:04.760 --> 00:44:07.519



I saw the other day because I know I stream87900:44:07.559 --> 00:44:10.840



everything is now that they're they're looking at. Okay, so88000:44:10.880 --> 00:44:13.199



now first responders are going to be affected by by88100:44:13.280 --> 00:44:15.199



PROPE all of a sudden, You're not going to get88200:44:15.239 --> 00:44:17.119



cops that are going to be coming to crimes that88300:44:17.119 --> 00:44:20.679



are they're happening here. The cops already don't come to88400:44:21.280 --> 00:44:24.280



the crime set. And the problem with crime is is88500:44:24.320 --> 00:44:27.079



that you know, you can do all you want to88600:44:27.079 --> 00:44:29.480



to get first responders going to where they want to be,88700:44:29.920 --> 00:44:32.280



whether that be cops or whether it be fire department,88800:44:32.280 --> 00:44:35.000



whether it be the e mpts or whatever. The fact88900:44:35.079 --> 00:44:38.519



of the matter is that you still have the the89000:44:38.559 --> 00:44:41.280



other side, the hospitals and everything that are involved in89100:44:41.280 --> 00:44:44.440



this is the federal funding being cut for Medicaid and89200:44:44.559 --> 00:44:48.920



places like that gonna kind of affect uh, small town hospitals.89300:44:49.320 --> 00:44:52.400



It's going to federal funding is going to affect everything89400:44:52.960 --> 00:44:56.960



But what head of the snake do you chop to89500:44:57.079 --> 00:45:00.960



make sure that everything is right across the board. With89600:45:01.079 --> 00:45:05.159



federal funding for all of these programs, we can't sustain89700:45:05.320 --> 00:45:08.960



the programs that we got because they keep they keep89800:45:09.079 --> 00:45:12.440



just either taxing us to death or or and if89900:45:12.440 --> 00:45:15.480



they can't tax us to death, they keep creating more money,90000:45:15.719 --> 00:45:19.760



and it just dilutes our money, It dilutes our buying power. Now,90100:45:19.800 --> 00:45:22.360



the fact that this PROPA is going through in California,90200:45:22.360 --> 00:45:24.440



and who knows whether it's going to go through or not,90300:45:24.519 --> 00:45:26.840



I got I got a bad feeling because you know,90400:45:26.840 --> 00:45:29.639



a Democrat held a state that you know they're going90500:45:29.679 --> 00:45:32.159



to pass this thing. That's fine, you know, my property90600:45:32.239 --> 00:45:34.159



taxes are going to go up, or some kind of90700:45:34.159 --> 00:45:36.840



sales tax is going to be be brought in. But90800:45:36.960 --> 00:45:39.559



the problem with all of this stuff happens to be90900:45:39.719 --> 00:45:42.440



with the execution of the laws that are already done.91000:45:42.559 --> 00:45:45.079



Like you said, we circle back to the immigration stuff.91100:45:46.159 --> 00:45:48.280



We have a crime We have a crime problem here91200:45:48.639 --> 00:45:52.519



in the bigger cities. The problem is is that they91300:45:52.559 --> 00:45:54.880



can arrest them all. That's fine, but they let them91400:45:54.880 --> 00:45:57.880



out so there's no there's no follow up to that.91500:45:57.960 --> 00:46:01.480



There's no real punishment. Yeah, yeah, exactly, And prope is91600:46:01.519 --> 00:46:03.400



not going to prope is not going to solve that,91700:46:03.960 --> 00:46:07.639



you know, and redistricting isn't going to solve that. You know,91800:46:07.719 --> 00:46:09.519



none of that's going to solve that. It's got it's91900:46:09.519 --> 00:46:11.000



got to be a it's got to be on the92000:46:11.000 --> 00:46:14.800



local level. Can Can, my my co host on the92100:46:14.840 --> 00:46:18.119



Weather Report, says that all the time, you've got to92200:46:18.119 --> 00:46:20.159



be involved in the local level. You've got to be92300:46:20.199 --> 00:46:22.800



able to get into your your city council medium. So92400:46:22.800 --> 00:46:25.920



a lot of people don't go I go at least uh,92500:46:26.039 --> 00:46:28.800



at least once every couple of months, I'll go, uh.92600:46:30.199 --> 00:46:33.840



And it's amazing how many how many people just don't92700:46:33.840 --> 00:46:37.280



care what goes on in your city council. And there's92800:46:37.280 --> 00:46:39.519



a lot of things that just get passed by. It's92900:46:39.599 --> 00:46:42.639



because there's no support for anybody. There's no there's no93000:46:42.719 --> 00:46:46.800



public outcry for anything to change. So nothing changes because93100:46:46.880 --> 00:46:49.719



you've elected these people. You don't even know, whether it93200:46:49.800 --> 00:46:52.519



be a panel of six, nine to twelve people in93300:46:52.559 --> 00:46:54.559



your city council, you don't know them. You just kind93400:46:54.559 --> 00:46:56.599



of go like, Okay, well this one that's been in93500:46:56.599 --> 00:46:58.880



for a while, maybe I just want a new face.93600:46:59.280 --> 00:47:02.119



They don't know you, just check boxes and they don't93700:47:02.119 --> 00:47:04.119



do any campaigning. They don't come to your door and93800:47:04.199 --> 00:47:06.239



knock on your door. I haven't had one city council93900:47:06.239 --> 00:47:08.760



person come and knock on my door. So the best94000:47:08.760 --> 00:47:10.760



thing that you can do is either get involved in94100:47:10.800 --> 00:47:13.719



your community, get involved in your city council meeting, and94200:47:13.800 --> 00:47:16.320



get involved on the local level and run for your94300:47:16.400 --> 00:47:18.559



like your your first step up, which is like the94400:47:18.599 --> 00:47:21.519



school boards and stuff like that. It's terrible from what94500:47:21.559 --> 00:47:23.880



you see out there. And I urge people that if94600:47:23.920 --> 00:47:26.079



you want change, you have to go out there and94700:47:26.119 --> 00:47:27.039



do it on a local level.94800:47:28.280 --> 00:47:33.840



Yeah, agreed. So I've always said this that pressure comes94900:47:33.840 --> 00:47:36.760



from the bottom. It's bottom up, it's not top down.95000:47:37.360 --> 00:47:40.840



And I've actually I've actually had this discussion, uh with95100:47:41.079 --> 00:47:42.920



a local politician in my area, and I actually had95200:47:42.960 --> 00:47:45.039



him on the show one of the early interviews, and95300:47:46.199 --> 00:47:48.000



it wasn't my greatest I could have pushed on him95400:47:48.000 --> 00:47:50.480



a lot more, trust me, but the reality is he95500:47:50.480 --> 00:47:52.599



didn't agree with that. He's like, well, it does that's95600:47:52.639 --> 00:47:55.239



not true. You know, you know the top, it works95700:47:55.280 --> 00:47:57.480



from the top, And then you know, I'm like, no, dude,95800:47:57.760 --> 00:48:01.039



you're not seeing that. The foundational is the majority of95900:48:01.079 --> 00:48:03.480



the people. If the majority of the people band together and96000:48:03.559 --> 00:48:05.320



tell you know, you're gonna do it this way, you're96100:48:05.320 --> 00:48:06.360



gonna be forced to change.96200:48:06.360 --> 00:48:07.280



That's just how it works.96300:48:07.880 --> 00:48:12.280



So people just don't understand that they do have more96400:48:12.280 --> 00:48:14.400



power than they think. But what you said is correct.96500:48:14.400 --> 00:48:16.920



They're not getting involved. And what you're talking about with96600:48:16.960 --> 00:48:20.519



police response, yeah, I've seen it. You know, are they96700:48:20.559 --> 00:48:22.639



responding in Oakland? I mean I hate doing it. If96800:48:22.679 --> 00:48:24.119



I get a job in Oakland, I do not like96900:48:24.159 --> 00:48:24.559



going there.97000:48:24.920 --> 00:48:25.119



You know.97100:48:25.159 --> 00:48:27.239



I don't like Stockton. I don't do Stockton. Baker's Field97200:48:27.280 --> 00:48:29.039



is another one I don't like, although that's that's more97300:48:29.440 --> 00:48:33.599



conservative out there. But still it's just just some areas97400:48:33.599 --> 00:48:35.880



in California where I'm like, I'm just gonnavoid San Francisco.97500:48:35.960 --> 00:48:38.280



Don't like going there anymore now, I just won't. You know,97600:48:38.280 --> 00:48:40.840



there's pockets where it's very evident the police do not97700:48:40.920 --> 00:48:44.480



respond or in force. But you know, we're when you97800:48:44.480 --> 00:48:48.159



were just talking about federal funding as far as it97900:48:48.199 --> 00:48:50.800



being applied or taken away from from like police or98000:48:50.840 --> 00:48:54.800



hospitals or whatnot. Let me ask this question, how is98100:48:54.840 --> 00:48:59.039



the federal government responsible for it. When this is something98200:48:59.079 --> 00:49:01.360



that is managed at the local level, I mean it's98300:49:01.360 --> 00:49:03.960



it's the policy's put in place by local government that98400:49:04.039 --> 00:49:07.239



got you here. When it comes to hospitals, do we98500:49:07.280 --> 00:49:09.679



really need federal funding? I mean, let's let's be honest.98600:49:09.679 --> 00:49:13.480



Obamacare screwed the industry. All it was was a was98700:49:13.599 --> 00:49:17.320



a attempt to price fix the industry. Lord, No, I98800:49:17.360 --> 00:49:19.519



can't prove it, but who knows who got whatever kickbacks98900:49:19.519 --> 00:49:23.079



from this whole deal? And now it got from where99000:49:23.079 --> 00:49:25.280



I remember, I can get insurance for a certain price99100:49:25.320 --> 00:49:27.519



that was affordable to like No matter what you do,99200:49:27.719 --> 00:49:30.440



here's your price across the board, and the only people99300:49:30.480 --> 00:49:33.159



who benefit from it are those who literally are on99400:49:33.199 --> 00:49:36.960



the edge or below poverty level. Everyone else, this is99500:49:37.000 --> 00:49:37.719



your price.99600:49:37.920 --> 00:49:41.679



And it's designed. It's designed. It's designed to be that way.99700:49:42.079 --> 00:49:43.639



It was a totally All you got to do is99800:49:43.679 --> 00:49:45.800



follow the money. I mean, if you sit back there99900:49:45.840 --> 00:49:48.519



and now, it's easier than anything to follow the money100000:49:48.559 --> 00:49:51.280



you've got. You've got several websites out there that have100100:49:51.360 --> 00:49:54.039



their pulse on the finger of federal spending and who100200:49:54.320 --> 00:49:56.760



who gets what from where? You know, we can talk100300:49:56.800 --> 00:50:00.000



about any politician you want to. They're all funded by somebody.100400:50:00.400 --> 00:50:05.159



Even somebody is as saintly as Thomas Massey is still100500:50:05.159 --> 00:50:08.280



getting federal funding and stuff like that. So you know,100600:50:08.320 --> 00:50:09.119



we can go there.100700:50:09.000 --> 00:50:11.559



All day, we can go down the donor rabbit hole.100800:50:11.719 --> 00:50:15.400



Yeah exactly. But all you got to do is follow100900:50:15.440 --> 00:50:18.920



the money. Do I think that that uh that uh101000:50:19.199 --> 00:50:23.119



uh county hospitals or rural hospitals should be federally funded?101100:50:23.199 --> 00:50:23.320



Oh?101200:50:23.480 --> 00:50:26.559



I don't think so at all. Me as being a101300:50:26.599 --> 00:50:29.400



taxpayer in California is different than me being a tax101400:50:29.920 --> 00:50:34.159



payer for for the federal government. Uh. We we vote101500:50:34.159 --> 00:50:36.480



on our taxes here in California, and if we don't101600:50:36.519 --> 00:50:39.119



vote the right way, well then the legislature just passes101700:50:39.159 --> 00:50:40.320



it anyway. So I mean.101800:50:41.960 --> 00:50:45.079



I didn't vote for the additional gas taxes that they're imposed.101900:50:45.119 --> 00:50:48.960



No, but but yeah, Governor News just decided that that102000:50:49.079 --> 00:50:49.239



was just.102100:50:50.960 --> 00:50:53.280



The government body or board that decided, hey, you know,102200:50:53.360 --> 00:50:56.320



due to environmental whatever, we're going to add another percentage.102300:50:56.400 --> 00:50:58.519



I don't vote on that, Yeah, So I think So,102400:50:58.559 --> 00:51:00.480



I think really what it comes down to is this102500:51:00.599 --> 00:51:02.760



is just a great big bitch fest for everybody to102600:51:02.920 --> 00:51:05.519



you know, kind of throw their matches into the fire102700:51:05.960 --> 00:51:08.280



and say, you know it's bad that you know, federal102800:51:08.320 --> 00:51:12.719



funding is being stripped away from from this, and Medicare102900:51:12.840 --> 00:51:15.559



is getting stripped away from that, and Social Security is103000:51:15.599 --> 00:51:19.119



getting taxed for this and everything. It's a ship show,103100:51:19.280 --> 00:51:22.599



I mean, just to just to bluntly and for the103200:51:22.639 --> 00:51:26.119



federal government to step in here and and uh, you know,103300:51:26.400 --> 00:51:29.039



uh Trump to go ahead and start slashing with with103400:51:29.480 --> 00:51:32.480



Elon Musk and Doze and the department that we've always103500:51:32.480 --> 00:51:36.760



had dose has always been there, regardless of what has103600:51:36.800 --> 00:51:41.320



always been there. And but this is a this is103700:51:41.360 --> 00:51:43.760



a this is a thing that needed to be done.103800:51:44.039 --> 00:51:47.800



And I think to me, if you would cut fifteen103900:51:47.840 --> 00:51:54.320



percent across all all UH programs across the board, what lives, lives,104000:51:54.320 --> 00:51:58.239



what dies dies is what I think is fair and honorable.104100:51:58.239 --> 00:52:00.000



Do I think that we should close all these parts?104200:52:00.079 --> 00:52:04.480



Meant oh yeah, absolutely, Department of Education, Department of Transportation,104300:52:04.639 --> 00:52:08.880



all these all these money makers that have all these104400:52:09.039 --> 00:52:13.679



contracts and stuff to their preferred people, you know, unions104500:52:13.719 --> 00:52:15.480



and stuff like that. Not the union guy. You know,104600:52:15.480 --> 00:52:17.360



I like unions. I think unions are good. I think104700:52:17.400 --> 00:52:22.119



public sector or the public unions, you know, the federal104800:52:22.199 --> 00:52:26.199



unions are atrocious. But that being said, like I said,104900:52:26.320 --> 00:52:29.639



you know, then, like I said, I refer to him105000:52:29.679 --> 00:52:32.199



a lot, you know, in the in the weather report,105100:52:32.519 --> 00:52:34.719



he thinks that it should be fifty percent across the board.105200:52:34.840 --> 00:52:38.239



Just slash everything all the way across the board, and105300:52:38.519 --> 00:52:43.079



that's kind of high. I was, yeah, but you yeah,105400:52:43.199 --> 00:52:46.119



but there's a whole bust a bunch of us social105500:52:46.199 --> 00:52:48.599



safety nets that are out there that don't need to105600:52:48.639 --> 00:52:51.639



be there because what people what happens is is people105700:52:51.639 --> 00:52:53.840



get dependent on this stuff. It's like, you know, don't105800:52:53.840 --> 00:52:57.000



feed the don't feed the animals at the zoo, because105900:52:57.000 --> 00:53:00.400



then they get used to you know, the people food. Right.106000:53:00.480 --> 00:53:03.320



You know, that's the point that right there, what you106100:53:03.360 --> 00:53:07.760



said is exactly it. We created this. Yes, you know,106200:53:07.760 --> 00:53:11.199



people became dependent because we were letting them become dependent106300:53:11.239 --> 00:53:13.760



on it. I want to I want to clarify something106400:53:13.760 --> 00:53:15.760



because I just realized that what I said about the hospitals,106500:53:15.760 --> 00:53:17.440



people were to give me crap about and say, oh,106600:53:17.639 --> 00:53:19.960



you know, you have no heart, No people would I106700:53:20.039 --> 00:53:21.840



wanted to. I want to explain that a little bit,106800:53:21.880 --> 00:53:24.920



what I said about pulling funding from hospitals because after106900:53:24.960 --> 00:53:28.360



Obamacare and everything else happened in the insurance industry.107000:53:28.480 --> 00:53:29.480



I'm just going to give you a story.107100:53:29.480 --> 00:53:32.039



I remember when my brother got a major accident where107200:53:32.039 --> 00:53:34.119



he rolled his car the whole bit and this this was,107300:53:34.559 --> 00:53:36.760



oh man, this was years ago. But even then things107400:53:36.760 --> 00:53:40.199



were exorbitant. And there's no reason you could tell me107500:53:40.239 --> 00:53:45.119



a box of bandages band aids cost five thousand dollars, right, Okay,107600:53:45.480 --> 00:53:48.880



the medical industry needs to needs to be looked into,107700:53:49.000 --> 00:53:50.599



and they need to be torn apart, and they need107800:53:50.639 --> 00:53:55.159



to be regulated because your medication shouldn't cost what they are.107900:53:55.239 --> 00:53:57.199



But that has more to do with how they regulate108000:53:58.000 --> 00:54:00.519



the drugs and whatnot. And you know, we're flipping the108100:54:00.559 --> 00:54:01.880



bill for most of the world when it comes to108200:54:01.880 --> 00:54:04.000



the percentage of how much we pay versus like you know,108300:54:04.039 --> 00:54:07.360



the people in Europe or candidate, et cetera. But when108400:54:07.400 --> 00:54:11.039



it comes to the hospitals, like is this surgery, a108500:54:11.039 --> 00:54:15.599



certain surgery really worth thirty thousand dollars? Is it thirty thousand?108600:54:15.639 --> 00:54:17.760



Is it really worth fifty thousand? You know, why is108700:54:17.760 --> 00:54:21.199



my cancer medication? You know, thank god, I'm not I108800:54:21.199 --> 00:54:24.159



don't have cancer, But why is cancer medication twenty thousand108900:54:24.159 --> 00:54:28.400



and fifty thousand per like, why that doesn't make any sense.109000:54:28.800 --> 00:54:33.079



Why advantages being built up five thousand dollars doesn't make109100:54:33.079 --> 00:54:37.400



any sense. So while hospitals can cry and scream, you know,109200:54:37.440 --> 00:54:40.599



they are charging, they are getting their money. What they109300:54:40.639 --> 00:54:43.559



don't like is they're not going to be federally subsidized109400:54:44.039 --> 00:54:46.840



when someone walks and doesn't pay the bill. And a109500:54:46.880 --> 00:54:49.480



lot of that is from people who don't have insurance,109600:54:49.480 --> 00:54:52.480



who are not necessarily the working class, you know, it's109700:54:52.519 --> 00:54:55.039



the people that were relying on these programs, as you109800:54:55.039 --> 00:54:58.239



said earlier. So this, this is going to be painful,109900:54:58.239 --> 00:55:00.760



but I think we need to have this rese set110000:55:01.039 --> 00:55:01.559



we needed.110100:55:02.679 --> 00:55:07.119



They need to be more responsible for the things that110200:55:07.159 --> 00:55:11.119



they want. So I decided to move to go Roy, California.110300:55:11.599 --> 00:55:13.639



I had no idea that we had an hospital that110400:55:13.679 --> 00:55:15.880



we have Saint Louis, which is which is now a110500:55:15.960 --> 00:55:19.559



part of the Santa Clairic Health System.110600:55:19.559 --> 00:55:22.239



Now, so don't you guys, I mean you got a110700:55:22.280 --> 00:55:25.440



kaiser also in morgan HILLO, right, I think it's in morgan.110800:55:25.280 --> 00:55:27.480



Hill, or we have a Kaiser here in Gilroy. It's110900:55:27.559 --> 00:55:30.119



it's a close yeah, so it's it's it's not a111000:55:30.199 --> 00:55:32.960



hospital but uh, you know, make a long story short,111100:55:33.000 --> 00:55:36.000



I had a I had a I had an emergency111200:55:36.000 --> 00:55:38.679



in appendectomy a couple of years ago in which they111300:55:38.679 --> 00:55:42.320



had to come get me by by ambulance and take111400:55:42.360 --> 00:55:44.199



me all the way to Santa the which is forty111500:55:44.199 --> 00:55:47.400



five minutes away. I shouldn't be here. There's a couple111600:55:47.440 --> 00:55:49.840



of times I shouldn't have been here. But the fact111700:55:49.840 --> 00:55:52.280



of the matter is is that is that they couldn't111800:55:52.320 --> 00:55:54.519



take me to Saint Louis because of course, you know,111900:55:54.599 --> 00:55:57.559



I had Kaiser insurance, so they had to get me112000:55:57.679 --> 00:56:02.840



up there. I I just think I'm all into about112100:56:02.840 --> 00:56:05.639



the temp Amendment. I'm into states rights, but I think112200:56:05.800 --> 00:56:10.400



states have gotten used to sucking off of the government112300:56:10.440 --> 00:56:13.920



tit and you know, and I think it's wrong. I112400:56:14.320 --> 00:56:17.920



think that in some ways, and I hate to say this,112500:56:18.360 --> 00:56:21.159



that you know, Governor's right. I mean, you know, Governor112600:56:21.280 --> 00:56:24.360



Newsom is right to be rebelling against Trump on a112700:56:24.400 --> 00:56:26.639



lot of stuff that Trump is trying to do federally112800:56:26.719 --> 00:56:30.360



within California, because I think that, you know, California is112900:56:30.400 --> 00:56:33.320



a sovereign state. Every state is a sovereign state. Every113000:56:33.400 --> 00:56:37.039



state is the sovereign country, and we decided to come113100:56:37.079 --> 00:56:39.000



together as a union to be able to defend our113200:56:39.039 --> 00:56:41.760



borders against you know, enemies and stuff like that. But113300:56:41.800 --> 00:56:46.000



we're still sovereign states within itself, and the federal government113400:56:46.000 --> 00:56:48.400



ought to do what the federal government was supposed to do,113500:56:48.760 --> 00:56:52.480



and states need to do with states what their citizens113600:56:52.519 --> 00:56:55.199



want them to do. And whether or not the Democrats113700:56:55.239 --> 00:56:58.639



want to fund hospitals and abortions and stuff like that113800:56:58.400 --> 00:57:02.760



with my tax money is only my decision by vote.113900:57:02.920 --> 00:57:06.679



It's a it's actually it actually states are democracy and114000:57:06.719 --> 00:57:10.280



then the whole of the United States is a constitutional114100:57:10.280 --> 00:57:13.800



republic because that's what we decided to do. Because you know,114200:57:14.119 --> 00:57:16.400



as you know, and you being in California here too,114300:57:16.480 --> 00:57:19.400



when we vote in California, you know, the majority wins.114400:57:19.599 --> 00:57:22.760



That's what it is. It doesn't matter whether San Francisco114500:57:22.920 --> 00:57:25.960



is a huge voting block and that Los Angeles County114600:57:26.039 --> 00:57:29.440



is the biggest voting block of of any country or114700:57:29.599 --> 00:57:32.719



any state. You know, the majority wins, and that's why114800:57:32.719 --> 00:57:36.320



we have this democratic uh supermajority here. But the fact114900:57:36.360 --> 00:57:39.039



of the matter is is that states ought to be115000:57:39.079 --> 00:57:41.480



able to fund what they need to fund to share115100:57:41.559 --> 00:57:44.199



within their own state, and the federal government. It's a115200:57:44.280 --> 00:57:46.119



state as much as it is possible.115300:57:46.519 --> 00:57:49.760



But using their own damn money, using their own money. Yeah, right,115400:57:49.960 --> 00:57:53.320



if and here's here's the caveat to that. If if115500:57:53.360 --> 00:57:58.320



states states need to get back to statehood, correct, but115600:57:58.400 --> 00:58:01.000



then you should also reject all federal funding. If that's115700:58:01.039 --> 00:58:04.880



going to be your stance, you need to manage yourself.115800:58:04.960 --> 00:58:07.280



It's it's it's it's a slippery slope. I'm just saying115900:58:07.519 --> 00:58:09.400



because we're what are we supposed to be the fourth116000:58:09.440 --> 00:58:11.440



largest largest economy in the world as he likes to,116100:58:11.679 --> 00:58:14.039



you know, brag about. Well, if we're making so much116200:58:14.079 --> 00:58:16.440



money and you're raping us so much in taxes, why116300:58:16.480 --> 00:58:19.719



are you even accepting federal funding for anything? Then absolutely,116400:58:19.840 --> 00:58:22.760



absolutely no reason for it. I agree that no reason116500:58:22.760 --> 00:58:24.599



for it. And here's the thing that we need to116600:58:24.639 --> 00:58:26.320



get back to. I think some of these states and116700:58:26.320 --> 00:58:29.760



these governors also need to realize that you are a116800:58:29.800 --> 00:58:32.639



member state of the United States of America, and so116900:58:33.079 --> 00:58:35.840



what what And this leads to like what what people117000:58:35.840 --> 00:58:38.840



were talking about with the National Guard, right and we117100:58:39.000 --> 00:58:41.000



and we we can argue whether or not how Trump117200:58:41.000 --> 00:58:44.679



is handling it that is constitutional or not. Uh, but117300:58:44.920 --> 00:58:47.840



what I My take on that is, if if you're117400:58:47.840 --> 00:58:50.400



going outside the union and opposing the union, and you're117500:58:50.440 --> 00:58:53.119



no longer aligning with the Union, at what point does117600:58:53.119 --> 00:58:55.519



the federal government not say, hold on, guys, you're no117700:58:55.559 --> 00:59:00.320



longer representing what this entire nation stands for right now.117800:59:00.679 --> 00:59:05.119



I'm not saying march in with troops, but federally, if117900:59:05.159 --> 00:59:08.000



we're all supposed to come together as a United States,118000:59:08.119 --> 00:59:10.039



and we have a certain direction, a way of things118100:59:10.119 --> 00:59:13.519



that we that we that we believe, and we're supposed118200:59:13.559 --> 00:59:15.519



to move forward in one direction as a country, and118300:59:15.519 --> 00:59:18.079



that you have a state over here who wants to118400:59:18.119 --> 00:59:20.039



act like they don't belong to the Union. They could118500:59:20.039 --> 00:59:23.199



do whatever they want outside of what is written and118600:59:23.280 --> 00:59:25.880



not not actually, you know, adhering to the you know,118700:59:26.159 --> 00:59:28.119



or actually what I'm trying to say is, you know,118800:59:28.239 --> 00:59:30.960



stay within the guardrails of what makes up the United118900:59:31.000 --> 00:59:35.880



States of America. Then does the federal government not have119000:59:35.960 --> 00:59:38.679



a right to check in on them, say hey, guys,119100:59:38.679 --> 00:59:39.559



what are you doing over here.119200:59:40.760 --> 00:59:45.119



Let's take Portland as as our example, because Portland is119300:59:45.159 --> 00:59:47.840



the ship show of the world. Man, they have surve119400:59:47.840 --> 00:59:53.480



pass California. Stuff that is in every aspect right about119500:59:53.760 --> 00:59:59.880



sending in the National Guard Portland and protecting federal interests. Yes,119601:00:00.239 --> 01:00:03.039



the ice facility. In fact, I think that they should119701:00:03.119 --> 01:00:07.039



have a perimeter around the ice facility way bigger than119801:00:07.079 --> 01:00:10.840



it is because right now they're still blocking the streets119901:00:10.960 --> 01:00:15.280



entering the ice facility and stuff like that. Anybody who120001:00:15.320 --> 01:00:19.000



is attacking that, anybody who is is deterring traffic going120101:00:19.039 --> 01:00:21.599



in and out, ought to be rounded up like soilent120201:00:21.679 --> 01:00:25.079



green with scoops and everything and just taken away. I120301:00:25.079 --> 01:00:28.480



mean that that is my honest opinion about that whole thing,120401:00:28.679 --> 01:00:29.960



whether it be peaceful or not.120501:00:31.239 --> 01:00:33.719



Do you agree that the local police should be handling120601:00:33.719 --> 01:00:34.599



that though, because.120701:00:34.480 --> 01:00:39.159



Absolutely, yeah, absolutely, But they don't because they're all read120801:00:39.239 --> 01:00:42.239



from you know what Portland has become over the years120901:00:42.239 --> 01:00:45.079



and decades that it has become. Portland has been its121001:00:45.079 --> 01:00:48.199



own little kind of city or city state within the121101:00:48.239 --> 01:00:51.360



state for decades. I mean, they were the first to121201:00:51.400 --> 01:00:54.039



bring in, you know, public transit there, They've got this,121301:00:54.159 --> 01:00:56.119



you know, they got a great system going. I've been121401:00:56.159 --> 01:00:59.280



to Portland. Portland's a beautiful town. It's this one little121501:00:59.320 --> 01:01:02.760



section of Portland right now there's just a ship show121601:01:03.159 --> 01:01:05.559



and and it kind of moves around. It wasn't it121701:01:05.639 --> 01:01:08.199



was in downtown, and now it's moved to the ice facility,121801:01:08.719 --> 01:01:11.320



and and you know, it's just one of these things121901:01:11.320 --> 01:01:14.400



that you've got. It's like when you have a major122001:01:14.440 --> 01:01:17.559



flood somewhere. Right, Okay, they're gonna the media is going122101:01:17.599 --> 01:01:19.719



to show you the place is more flooded than anything.122201:01:19.760 --> 01:01:21.440



They're going to show you the puddle that's you know,122301:01:21.599 --> 01:01:25.440



six with the with the head sticking out, and then122401:01:25.519 --> 01:01:27.920



you know, one hundred feet away there's no flood at all.122501:01:28.440 --> 01:01:34.320



The same thing is happening with Portland, and it's atrocious. Chicago,122601:01:35.719 --> 01:01:39.599



New Orleans, Uh, you know you name the city. Uh,122701:01:39.719 --> 01:01:42.280



you need to send troops in there if they if122801:01:42.320 --> 01:01:44.599



the police aren't doing their job, you need to send122901:01:44.800 --> 01:01:48.000



National Guard in there to protect the federal interest. Other123001:01:48.039 --> 01:01:50.400



than that, I can give ship what happens to Portland.123101:01:50.559 --> 01:01:53.119



I can give a crap what happens to Chicago. Those123201:01:53.159 --> 01:01:55.599



people decided by their vote that they wanted to be123301:01:56.440 --> 01:02:01.039



governed by the people that they elected to govern and yeah,123401:02:01.280 --> 01:02:02.119



help you high water.123501:02:02.639 --> 01:02:08.519



So okay, So protecting federal facilities exactly where this application123601:02:08.639 --> 01:02:12.360



makes sense. Right, But let's let's say that should we123701:02:12.440 --> 01:02:15.559



let a state become a hellhole, become destitute and ram123801:02:15.599 --> 01:02:20.320



by crime just because people voted that way is the123901:02:20.400 --> 01:02:23.159



other question. And then you know, when we're talking about124001:02:23.199 --> 01:02:27.639



California earlier in my point being about you know, being124101:02:27.719 --> 01:02:30.920



part of the union, when you have the governor himself124201:02:31.679 --> 01:02:33.760



popping off and trying to talk about how we should124301:02:33.800 --> 01:02:37.159



secede as a state, that's not acceptable.124401:02:38.360 --> 01:02:42.280



I will say this, Does California have a military? Well? No,124501:02:42.360 --> 01:02:48.039



I mean, I'm with you when you start spouting of124601:02:48.159 --> 01:02:50.199



the fact that you know, we want to succeed from124701:02:50.199 --> 01:02:53.280



the state. Does California have a military? No, California doesn't124801:02:53.280 --> 01:02:55.719



have a military. We have a nation. Yeah, we can't124901:02:55.760 --> 01:02:57.440



stand on our own. We don't have taste, we don't125001:02:57.440 --> 01:03:00.159



have nuclear weapons, we don't have anything of sort to125101:03:00.320 --> 01:03:03.199



go against the the power of the federal government, the125201:03:03.280 --> 01:03:05.559



US Army, the Navy, whatever, understood.125301:03:05.559 --> 01:03:08.679



But but the governor of California himself saying these things,125401:03:09.519 --> 01:03:12.320



I mean, would you say the federal government has a125501:03:12.440 --> 01:03:14.679



right to tell the governor or go to the state125601:03:14.719 --> 01:03:17.679



of California, the governing body of state California, say all right,125701:03:18.480 --> 01:03:21.559



what's the reasoning for this? Rhetoric, this narrative of secession,125801:03:21.679 --> 01:03:23.280



like why are you trying to push this? Are you125901:03:23.400 --> 01:03:27.000



trying to you know, isolate yourself and separate from the Union.126001:03:27.239 --> 01:03:29.719



And then to your point, it's like it's a stupid126101:03:29.800 --> 01:03:31.880



situation that they want to do because now they're trapped,126201:03:32.039 --> 01:03:34.000



like you're gonna you're gonna have the coastline and then126301:03:34.000 --> 01:03:36.599



they're gonna be blocked off on all other sides, not126401:03:36.639 --> 01:03:38.800



being able to defend yourself or do anything against United126501:03:38.800 --> 01:03:41.119



States of America. But then I guarantee if they ever126601:03:41.199 --> 01:03:44.679



did this, they're gonna cry and try to be an126701:03:44.719 --> 01:03:46.199



ally of the use because they're then they're going to126801:03:46.280 --> 01:03:48.280



realize they're boxed in and they have nothing they can do.126901:03:48.599 --> 01:03:51.280



And then what about pulling out our our training bases127001:03:51.320 --> 01:03:53.400



in San Diego, Like we've got the Marine training facility,127101:03:53.480 --> 01:03:56.599



Like we have the base over there in uh Palms,127201:03:56.880 --> 01:04:02.079



Palm Springs. Like yeah, now, what you know, how is127301:04:02.119 --> 01:04:03.159



this guy separation?127401:04:03.280 --> 01:04:06.000



It's the separation of the ideologies of the political parties127501:04:06.000 --> 01:04:09.039



that are that are running these states and local governments.127601:04:09.039 --> 01:04:11.159



And that's just the way it is. I mean, we127701:04:11.320 --> 01:04:14.760



I guess we boxed ourselves into a situation where now127801:04:14.800 --> 01:04:19.199



we got to go, wow, we're really strewd, you know.127901:04:20.280 --> 01:04:22.159



I guess my point is like when you when you128001:04:22.199 --> 01:04:24.119



got governors talking this, it's like they're trying to stir128101:04:24.199 --> 01:04:26.480



ship up just because they don't like Trump. You know,128201:04:26.480 --> 01:04:30.400



you got Newsom said it. I think uh JB. Prisker128301:04:30.760 --> 01:04:32.400



Actually I don't know if he said it or he128401:04:33.400 --> 01:04:36.320



made a under the radar type of comment about it.128501:04:37.039 --> 01:04:40.800



But other other Blue states have said this, and it's like,128601:04:40.840 --> 01:04:43.159



are we trying to recreate the South versus the North?128701:04:43.360 --> 01:04:45.519



But it wouldn't literally be the South verst North. It128801:04:45.559 --> 01:04:47.679



would be like you know, the left first right war,128901:04:47.800 --> 01:04:51.119



Like what are they pushing for? And all for the129001:04:51.159 --> 01:04:53.320



sake that they don't like Donald Trump? You know, and129101:04:53.320 --> 01:04:55.920



then the citizens are caught in between because you know,129201:04:56.000 --> 01:04:57.960



we give these politicians too much power. They think the129301:04:58.159 --> 01:05:00.239



rock stars these days, they can do whatever they want.129401:05:00.519 --> 01:05:03.320



It's like, hold on. It's like the approach to war129501:05:04.159 --> 01:05:07.519



in my opinion, so like because two politicians leaders of129601:05:07.559 --> 01:05:09.840



two countries don't like each other, we're now going to129701:05:09.880 --> 01:05:12.000



stand troops in to fight each other. Well fuck that,129801:05:12.119 --> 01:05:13.440



you guys, get in the ring and duke it out.129901:05:13.440 --> 01:05:17.519



See who wins. You know, it doesn't make a little sense.130001:05:17.639 --> 01:05:19.480



It would be a lot different if we had the130101:05:19.559 --> 01:05:22.079



WWE pay per view, they had all the governments pitted130201:05:22.079 --> 01:05:24.800



against each other, and I would pay.130301:05:25.159 --> 01:05:26.800



Oh, that would be great. I think that would be130401:05:26.840 --> 01:05:28.320



amazing if we can get to that point. I mean,130501:05:28.360 --> 01:05:30.599



could you imagine Trump and Kim Jong un over there130601:05:30.639 --> 01:05:33.719



in the ring just going at it, you know, rocketman130701:05:33.840 --> 01:05:36.400



versus Orange, you know, Cheetah dusted man like, that's what130801:05:36.440 --> 01:05:37.000



they would call.130901:05:36.920 --> 01:05:43.599



It, right, That would be freaking great. But in all seriousness,131001:05:43.679 --> 01:05:48.400



I think that it's we have just let government. We131101:05:48.440 --> 01:05:53.119



have come. We have citizens that become complacent to government.131201:05:53.320 --> 01:05:56.800



We become complacent to the things that we're used to.131301:05:57.480 --> 01:06:02.360



We we get we get just really comfortable with what131401:06:02.400 --> 01:06:05.920



we have. Man. I mean really, I mean I never131501:06:05.960 --> 01:06:07.639



thought in a million years that I have a home.131601:06:07.679 --> 01:06:09.440



I'm sitting here with the home. I'm doing everything that131701:06:09.480 --> 01:06:12.519



I can do to protect it, with insurances, with with131801:06:12.719 --> 01:06:15.480



the cost of living, with you know, making sure that131901:06:15.519 --> 01:06:18.199



this thing is still standing, you know, on this foundation132001:06:18.320 --> 01:06:21.320



and stuff like that. And yet you know, outside of132101:06:21.320 --> 01:06:24.079



my outside of my little bubble that I have around132201:06:24.119 --> 01:06:27.599



my you know, less than a quarter anchor freaking home here,132301:06:28.480 --> 01:06:31.920



I've got, you know, walls falling down around me, and uh,132401:06:32.079 --> 01:06:34.440



you know, so you know, we like the costcos we132501:06:34.559 --> 01:06:37.239



liked the We like the convenience. We liked we like132601:06:37.320 --> 01:06:40.000



the sunshine. We pay sunshine backs me and you, George,132701:06:40.360 --> 01:06:42.880



and uh, you know, all that stuff is falling down132801:06:42.920 --> 01:06:45.480



around us, and we were looking at each other and132901:06:45.559 --> 01:06:49.239



just going like, we created this, We created we created133001:06:49.320 --> 01:06:51.639



all of this. Now whether or not you voted for133101:06:51.840 --> 01:06:54.880



it or not is irregardless of it. But when was133201:06:54.880 --> 01:06:57.079



the last time you talked to your neighbor? How many133301:06:57.119 --> 01:06:58.960



neighbors do you know around you?133401:06:59.519 --> 01:07:02.639



Okay, but I don't think that's a political thing when133501:07:02.679 --> 01:07:04.480



it comes to like talking to neighbors. I think that133601:07:04.719 --> 01:07:11.039



is a that is an engineered social behavior over time,133701:07:11.960 --> 01:07:14.280



because you know, now we're talking, I'm gonna.133801:07:14.039 --> 01:07:15.599



Win in politics.133901:07:14.679 --> 01:07:20.760



But that that that is a result of always having134001:07:21.599 --> 01:07:26.119



always having to have the latest, greatest, newest entertainment in134101:07:26.159 --> 01:07:28.880



your hand. It all started with social media, and once134201:07:28.920 --> 01:07:31.639



that happened, we started separating from each other to interact134301:07:31.880 --> 01:07:35.199



base to face. Now everything's done online or you're you know,134401:07:35.280 --> 01:07:37.199



you don't even have conversation with anyone on the phone.134501:07:37.199 --> 01:07:39.039



It's a text message. Nobody wants to talk to anybody.134601:07:39.239 --> 01:07:41.840



It's like, send a message, and there's a place for that,134701:07:41.960 --> 01:07:43.719



you know, like for me if I'm busy and I'm134801:07:43.719 --> 01:07:45.599



in a meeting or whatever. Yeah, text message makes sense,134901:07:45.639 --> 01:07:47.760



Please text me and then I'll call you back. But135001:07:48.280 --> 01:07:49.960



nobody wants to talk to anybody. People have lost that.135101:07:50.000 --> 01:07:52.800



People have lost, right, So I don't think that that135201:07:52.800 --> 01:07:56.320



that particular example in terms of talking to your neighbor.135301:07:56.400 --> 01:07:58.320



Not No, your neighbor is a political thing so much135401:07:58.320 --> 01:08:00.719



as it is a societal thing. Is what we have135501:08:00.880 --> 01:08:05.679



become due to being trained, you know, we we've been135601:08:05.880 --> 01:08:11.159



behaviorally modified and conditioned into looking at our phones in135701:08:11.199 --> 01:08:13.960



our social media and that's our that's our world. And135801:08:14.039 --> 01:08:16.520



unfortunately that led to these these keyboard warriors and these135901:08:16.520 --> 01:08:19.319



people who believe that because they have a million followers136001:08:19.319 --> 01:08:21.520



on x that they're the biggest shit in the world. Well, listen,136101:08:21.760 --> 01:08:23.319



I'm gonna tell you right now, once you walk out136201:08:23.359 --> 01:08:26.840



your door, you're nothing. You really are nothing. They don't136301:08:26.840 --> 01:08:28.600



want to they don't want to hear that, but that's true,136401:08:28.800 --> 01:08:30.560



you know. And it's like when it comes to podcasting,136501:08:30.600 --> 01:08:32.800



for example, just because that's what you do. We have136601:08:32.880 --> 01:08:37.279



that my social media does not reflect. It does not136701:08:37.319 --> 01:08:40.800



reflect what goes on with the podcast whatsoever. You know,136801:08:40.880 --> 01:08:42.960



I'm horrible at it. I don't grow it because I136901:08:43.000 --> 01:08:44.960



don't have time to sit there and post twenty four137001:08:45.000 --> 01:08:47.399



freaking hours. But there's people that they tried to make137101:08:47.439 --> 01:08:51.359



this their living and what's dangerous. And I'm going to137201:08:51.439 --> 01:08:53.159



tie this back together, Bruce, But what you said in137301:08:53.159 --> 01:08:56.600



the beginning is like with the news now, they're relying137401:08:56.640 --> 01:08:59.199



on what's being said on social media as fact in137501:08:59.319 --> 01:09:01.600



truth when most of it is a bunch of bots137601:09:01.720 --> 01:09:03.119



just kicking the hornets nest.137701:09:03.800 --> 01:09:05.920



Yeah, yeah, I think that. I think the fact that137801:09:05.960 --> 01:09:08.880



you've got to go like, we cannot trust the mainstream137901:09:08.920 --> 01:09:13.319



media anymore. You can't trust uh, but even even independent138001:09:13.439 --> 01:09:15.720



so called journalism. Well, and that's what I'm saying. That's138101:09:15.760 --> 01:09:17.239



why I'm getting that. I'm getting that. So now we138201:09:17.319 --> 01:09:19.560



got X that we're going into and we're going like, oh, well,138301:09:19.560 --> 01:09:21.439



that's where we get the news first, because they're faster138401:09:21.520 --> 01:09:24.119



than anybody else, you know, faster in NBC, faster and138501:09:24.199 --> 01:09:27.520



Fox faster than CNN. Fine, it is you know, but138601:09:27.920 --> 01:09:29.520



like you said, there's a whole bunch of bots that138701:09:29.520 --> 01:09:32.399



are kicking the hornet's nest, and you still have to138801:09:32.399 --> 01:09:35.000



do your due diligence. I had had a conversation last138901:09:35.079 --> 01:09:38.039



night with the person that we've had on our show before,139001:09:38.560 --> 01:09:42.600



and she she had been duped into into, uh into139101:09:42.680 --> 01:09:45.680



posting something that she saw online. What she found out139201:09:45.760 --> 01:09:50.199



was basically, you know, about kicking the hornous nest, and139301:09:50.239 --> 01:09:52.560



it was wrong, you know, And I go, you still139401:09:52.600 --> 01:09:54.439



have to do your due digits. Just because I found139501:09:54.479 --> 01:09:56.680



it on X doesn't make it true. I mean, they139601:09:57.039 --> 01:10:02.119



showed they showed the presence of Boston yesterday of of139701:10:02.319 --> 01:10:07.319



the of the No King's protests. But but the picture139801:10:07.479 --> 01:10:10.479



was from another protest back a couple of years ago. Yeah,139901:10:10.520 --> 01:10:15.640



I mean from Yeah, they're reusing you know, stock photos140001:10:15.640 --> 01:10:18.600



from stuff that happened earlier. Now, did Boston have that140101:10:18.640 --> 01:10:21.479



turn up? Maybe maybe not. I don't know. I don't140201:10:21.520 --> 01:10:24.279



freaking go to Boston. I don't care about Boston. The140301:10:24.319 --> 01:10:26.159



only thing I care about Boston is that, you know,140401:10:26.199 --> 01:10:27.880



they beat the Yankees. You know, That's what That's what140501:10:27.920 --> 01:10:32.000



I care about. But but no, I mean, you know,140601:10:32.119 --> 01:10:34.000



we got to take this stuff with a grain of salt.140701:10:34.000 --> 01:10:36.079



When you're when you're dealing with social media, which is140801:10:36.079 --> 01:10:38.479



our main source of information, now you still have to140901:10:38.520 --> 01:10:40.199



take it with a grain of salt. You still have141001:10:40.279 --> 01:10:43.479



to do your due diligence as you go forward, especially141101:10:43.520 --> 01:10:45.680



with you know, with the weather Report, is it different?141201:10:46.039 --> 01:10:48.279



Is a different animal than than the Wedterview. The weather141301:10:48.399 --> 01:10:51.399



View deals with news and politics and cultural stuff that141401:10:51.439 --> 01:10:55.880



we do every every morning. I still have to research141501:10:56.000 --> 01:11:00.479



before I get into that realm on every morning. Yeah,141601:11:01.079 --> 01:11:03.640



before before I go with because you know, a lot141701:11:03.640 --> 01:11:06.079



of these guys and I love all my freaking co hosts,141801:11:06.079 --> 01:11:09.319



my collaborators, and collaborators will come out sometimes and I141901:11:09.359 --> 01:11:11.840



had to go like, hey, whoa, you know, this is142001:11:11.840 --> 01:11:14.279



what's really going on. Even though we have a dialogue142101:11:14.319 --> 01:11:17.279



there that we discussed these things back and forth always142201:11:17.479 --> 01:11:20.640



because it's open dialogue. It's it's a critical thinking discussion142301:11:20.680 --> 01:11:23.840



and stuff like that. But you have to do your142401:11:23.920 --> 01:11:26.439



due diligence. If you don't do your due diligence, I'm142501:11:26.560 --> 01:11:31.640



doing my listeners wrong by giving them bad information and142601:11:31.680 --> 01:11:34.079



then they're going to react whether they're you know, the142701:11:34.199 --> 01:11:38.439



dozens of people that I have listening are going to react. Yeah,142801:11:38.439 --> 01:11:40.159



they're going to react in a way that that is142901:11:40.239 --> 01:11:42.399



contrary to what's really happening out there. I think we143001:11:42.439 --> 01:11:44.800



have a response. I think we have a responsibility as143101:11:44.840 --> 01:11:48.159



independent podcasters to at least do as much due diligence143201:11:48.199 --> 01:11:50.199



as we can, because as much fact out there as143301:11:50.199 --> 01:11:53.640



possible strew the Hannity is screwed, the Joe Rogan, screw143401:11:53.880 --> 01:11:57.600



everybody else. You know, uh like that. It doesn't matter.143501:11:57.640 --> 01:11:59.600



They have an agenda to go by. You can say.143601:11:59.640 --> 01:12:01.760



You can say that Joe Rogan, you know, shoots from143701:12:01.800 --> 01:12:04.159



you know, shoots from the hippie, doesn't shoot from the hippie.143801:12:04.279 --> 01:12:06.399



He's got his donators and stuff like that. He's gotta143901:12:06.600 --> 01:12:08.520



he's got to do the same with Hannity's same with144001:12:08.640 --> 01:12:10.960



all these other people that are that are doing this stuff.144101:12:11.000 --> 01:12:13.880



But yeah, Joe's got that one hundred million dollars contract.144201:12:14.079 --> 01:12:17.159



At some point someone's gonna like say, whoa, hey, you144301:12:17.199 --> 01:12:17.880



need to kind of got it.144401:12:17.960 --> 01:12:20.399



Ten I got a tent and tenths and fifteen dollars144501:12:20.520 --> 01:12:21.680



contracts going on, So.144601:12:23.039 --> 01:12:25.159



I got nothing. I don't even push it. I'm bad144701:12:25.199 --> 01:12:29.560



about that, But you're correct. This is what you said144801:12:29.640 --> 01:12:33.000



is very akin to what uh Roy Strozzio. I don't144901:12:33.000 --> 01:12:34.840



know if you know who he is, but he's he's145001:12:34.880 --> 01:12:39.439



another he was an influencer. Uh, he's another podcaster who's145101:12:39.520 --> 01:12:41.439



kind of switched his career up. He was he used145201:12:41.479 --> 01:12:43.960



to be like the Disney Parks guy. So he go145301:12:44.039 --> 01:12:45.560



like to the Disney parks and do all this. He145401:12:45.600 --> 01:12:49.600



had a huge falling TikTok, and he's been changing things.145501:12:49.680 --> 01:12:52.199



He's having more of these type of conversations now, getting145601:12:52.199 --> 01:12:54.960



away from it. And uh, that's one of his peeves,145701:12:55.119 --> 01:12:59.279



is uh self moderation. There's not enough of it from145801:12:59.560 --> 01:13:03.640



podcast independent or otherwise. It's great that we don't have145901:13:03.680 --> 01:13:05.479



the regulation. We can say whatever we want. We could146001:13:05.560 --> 01:13:07.800



use whatever words we want. I can use as many146101:13:07.840 --> 01:13:10.600



expectives as I want. But we also have to realize146201:13:10.600 --> 01:13:14.560



that there's a responsibility because there are people who will146301:13:14.600 --> 01:13:17.640



hear us. Big or small, doesn't matter. We have are146401:13:17.680 --> 01:13:21.880



people who listen to us, and they may take what146501:13:21.920 --> 01:13:28.159



we say as fact in terms of he said this146601:13:28.279 --> 01:13:31.079



because this is what he does, and I trust what146701:13:31.119 --> 01:13:33.600



he says or her. And now I'm going to move146801:13:33.640 --> 01:13:35.479



forward in my life and I'm going to apply what146901:13:35.520 --> 01:13:38.039



that person said, like me, you whoever, and this is147001:13:38.079 --> 01:13:39.760



now going to be my way of thinking and the147101:13:39.800 --> 01:13:42.239



basis on how I make all my decisions. There are147201:13:42.239 --> 01:13:44.520



all those people out there, and I would say that147301:13:44.800 --> 01:13:47.840



if you listen to me, you whoever, take even what147401:13:47.920 --> 01:13:49.920



I say with the grain of salt, do your own research.147501:13:49.920 --> 01:13:51.880



And I've said that, and there's times where I'm like,147601:13:52.000 --> 01:13:53.600



I don't have time to do all the research, like147701:13:53.640 --> 01:13:56.960



I've done it. But I'll even tell people when I'm recording, hey,147801:13:57.000 --> 01:14:00.640



look this up yourself, like, don't just don't just hang147901:14:00.680 --> 01:14:03.039



on my word. And I think there has to be148001:14:03.079 --> 01:14:05.600



some self moderation. I don't believe we need to be censored.148101:14:05.600 --> 01:14:08.079



I don't think we need the whole FCC regulation stuff applied.148201:14:08.199 --> 01:14:10.239



That's what That's what Royce keeps trying to say. I148301:14:10.560 --> 01:14:12.079



was just, you know, on one of his podcasts today148401:14:12.079 --> 01:14:14.159



listening and he he believes that we need to get148501:14:14.159 --> 01:14:15.800



to That's like, nah, I don't believe in that fuck that.148601:14:15.800 --> 01:14:17.720



I want to say, funck, shit, cunt, whatever I want148701:14:17.720 --> 01:14:20.520



to say, however, however want to express myself. I want148801:14:20.560 --> 01:14:22.439



to do that, but I also realize that I have148901:14:22.479 --> 01:14:26.199



a responsibility like, I can't be pushing hate speech, and149001:14:26.520 --> 01:14:29.000



you know, I don't want to bombard the bombard social149101:14:29.039 --> 01:14:33.039



media with nothing but like beheadings and death and you know, pedophilians,149201:14:33.079 --> 01:14:34.319



Like what kind of person would I be if I149301:14:34.359 --> 01:14:39.000



did that? You know, I believe in your approach, Uh,149401:14:39.079 --> 01:14:41.600



do your research, present facts and data. And I say149501:14:41.640 --> 01:14:44.520



facts and data at the time of my recording, because149601:14:44.640 --> 01:14:47.600



as things as things progress, you know, it could change,149701:14:47.640 --> 01:14:49.600



it could change right in the middle of your podcast,149801:14:49.880 --> 01:14:52.640



right it's happened. I'm like recording something and all of149901:14:52.640 --> 01:14:54.520



a sudden, I say something pop on. I was like, well,150001:14:54.560 --> 01:14:59.640



all right, I guess that's no longer valid, so but whatever.150101:15:00.000 --> 01:15:03.159



But yeah, I'm just saying you're correct. I believe everything150201:15:03.199 --> 01:15:07.039



that you said is absolutely true. And unfortunately, too many150301:15:07.039 --> 01:15:09.359



people are easily influenced and they and they hang on150401:15:09.399 --> 01:15:12.680



the words of like these you know, Ben Shapiro's, Joe Rogan's,150501:15:12.760 --> 01:15:14.760



Michael Knowles, all these guys. And I'm not saying they150601:15:14.760 --> 01:15:17.119



don't have valid points, but in the end, they're no150701:15:17.119 --> 01:15:19.000



different than your right, They're just people. There's people with150801:15:19.079 --> 01:15:22.800



opinions that they are not qualified to actually be somebody150901:15:23.159 --> 01:15:25.760



in which you would hang your entire life view on.151001:15:26.239 --> 01:15:29.039



They're just not period same thing with a politician. They're151101:15:29.079 --> 01:15:31.479



just another person. There's nothing special about them.151201:15:31.479 --> 01:15:34.520



But George, would you sell out like like Aaron Wood151301:15:34.720 --> 01:15:36.920



or you know, the one hundred million dollar contract and151401:15:37.039 --> 01:15:40.560



just you know, become the uh come the next Rachel151501:15:40.600 --> 01:15:44.119



mad Out. I would never be that. But at the151601:15:44.119 --> 01:15:45.199



same time, I get it.151701:15:45.239 --> 01:15:47.199



I get the question because that is something that I151801:15:47.199 --> 01:15:49.520



think all of us think about, like, let's just be honest,151901:15:49.960 --> 01:15:53.359



would we not rather have this be our career for example?152001:15:53.760 --> 01:15:54.680



But there's a problem.152101:15:54.800 --> 01:15:57.359



You know, the problem with that is you do get152201:15:57.359 --> 01:16:00.119



what you ask for once it becomes the career and152301:16:00.159 --> 01:16:03.079



it becomes the grind, and then it's no longer you know,152401:16:03.279 --> 01:16:06.039



you literally caring about what you're doing. You're just like, God, damn,152501:16:06.039 --> 01:16:08.279



I gotta put another one out. I got to talk152601:16:08.279 --> 01:16:11.039



about the S s U. And then you're just stuck152701:16:11.079 --> 01:16:15.399



in this this this stuck in these four walls that152801:16:15.479 --> 01:16:18.680



you can't escape because if you don't do X, you152901:16:18.720 --> 01:16:22.479



don't get why in return, and you're you're part of153001:16:22.520 --> 01:16:28.840



this vicious cycle of being a exactly pretty much. But153101:16:29.479 --> 01:16:31.760



as far as one hundred million dollar question, yeah. I153201:16:31.800 --> 01:16:34.560



mean I think most people will say they wouldn't, but153301:16:34.640 --> 01:16:38.359



they would. What question is is how long can you153401:16:38.479 --> 01:16:40.800



hack it? Like could you how long can you swallow153501:16:40.880 --> 01:16:43.359



before you blow up and say fuck this, I can't153601:16:43.359 --> 01:16:45.520



do it anymore. I can't do it anymore. I mean,153701:16:45.560 --> 01:16:48.760



I would think that someone like uh, me or you153801:16:48.800 --> 01:16:51.159



would have the integrity to I mean, even if someone153901:16:51.199 --> 01:16:52.560



waving in front of your face. I mean, it's hard154001:16:52.560 --> 01:16:56.279



to turn that down. But at the same time, you154101:16:56.359 --> 01:16:58.279



gotta you gotta stand up for who you are. So154201:16:58.399 --> 01:17:01.039



I can't answer that question until someone actually presents it154301:17:01.079 --> 01:17:02.720



to me because it would be tempting.154401:17:02.920 --> 01:17:04.960



Well, right now, I'm living the dream because I love154501:17:05.000 --> 01:17:08.159



to talk. I love podcasting. When I started podcasting, I154601:17:08.239 --> 01:17:10.039



was like, man, this is great and I'll be able154701:17:10.039 --> 01:17:12.359



to talk. And the whole thing is is this is154801:17:12.359 --> 01:17:14.800



when I get into my social circles now, which is154901:17:15.039 --> 01:17:18.000



mostly because I live in a democratic, you know, democratic155001:17:18.079 --> 01:17:21.359



kind of area, When they start talking about politics and155101:17:21.359 --> 01:17:23.720



stuff like that in a social situation, I'm going like, hey,155201:17:23.760 --> 01:17:25.199



you know what, I got two shows. I got The155301:17:25.199 --> 01:17:27.920



Weather Report and I got the Weather View. Let's talk fishing,155401:17:29.159 --> 01:17:32.520



Let's talk baseball, let's talk football, let's talk anything that155501:17:32.520 --> 01:17:34.359



that you know that I don't have to talk about155601:17:34.399 --> 01:17:36.560



other than that you can get from one of my155701:17:36.600 --> 01:17:39.520



two shows. That's basically what I told them because it's155801:17:39.560 --> 01:17:42.600



so free and in that way, Number One, I get155901:17:42.600 --> 01:17:44.920



to do what I love. I get to enjoy the156001:17:44.960 --> 01:17:47.720



people that I like to hang around with. And it's156101:17:47.760 --> 01:17:50.239



not work. And like you said, it's one hundred million156201:17:50.239 --> 01:17:53.399



dollar question. What one hundred million dollars help me out?156301:17:53.479 --> 01:17:58.279



You know? Oh? Absolutely, it change my life totally. But156401:17:58.319 --> 01:18:00.840



then it would be the grind and everything else like that.156501:18:00.880 --> 01:18:03.399



And then my other two businesses. I'm in a direct156601:18:03.399 --> 01:18:07.840



marketing business plexus worldwide. I use the products, that's what156701:18:07.880 --> 01:18:10.720



I do. I love it. I have a backyard nursery.156801:18:10.800 --> 01:18:13.720



I love gardening. Yeah, you know, if I got a156901:18:13.720 --> 01:18:16.520



one hundred million dollar contract in the doing gardening and157001:18:16.560 --> 01:18:18.920



stuff like that, would it be different than what I'm157101:18:18.920 --> 01:18:22.439



doing now? Absolutely? Would it be a grind? Absolutely? Would157201:18:22.479 --> 01:18:25.920



I hate it? Absolutely? Yeah? So it comes rob Yeah,157301:18:26.000 --> 01:18:28.520



I'd rather be on the small end of it and157401:18:28.680 --> 01:18:31.960



put in my extra twenty hours a week that I do,157501:18:32.319 --> 01:18:36.600



you know, producing this program, doing my backyard nursery, promoting157601:18:36.600 --> 01:18:40.600



my other direct marketing program stuff like that. Yeah, it's157701:18:40.720 --> 01:18:43.520



it's a grind. It's still it's a grind. It it157801:18:43.560 --> 01:18:45.920



is an enjoyable grind. It's not like work. It's something157901:18:45.960 --> 01:18:48.680



that I love. Yeah, it's different.158001:18:49.039 --> 01:18:52.520



It's a different grind because you're not you're not under158101:18:52.520 --> 01:18:54.680



the pressure of if I don't do this, my paycheck's158201:18:54.680 --> 01:18:57.359



taken away or exactly. Got to be afraid to say158301:18:57.399 --> 01:19:00.319



something because then I will no longer get this support158401:19:00.359 --> 01:19:05.039



from my employer. Really, and even when it comes to sponsors.158501:19:05.039 --> 01:19:07.239



I mean, you know, I look at it this way.158601:19:07.920 --> 01:19:10.399



I got some affiliate marketing things going on, and it's158701:19:10.439 --> 01:19:15.880



like they approved it. That's all I'm gonna say. They158801:19:15.960 --> 01:19:20.239



approved it. The email we no longer want you? Fine, whatever,158901:19:20.439 --> 01:19:22.399



you know. I mean, it's I'm not getting rich off159001:19:22.399 --> 01:19:24.199



this anyway. I don't really care. I'm not doing it159101:19:24.239 --> 01:19:28.720



for that reason. So look, let's I don't know how159201:19:28.800 --> 01:19:30.239



much time you have, but I I do want to159301:19:30.239 --> 01:19:35.239



get your opinion on whether or not foreign nations are159401:19:35.319 --> 01:19:38.680



running our nation? Like, is do you believe that's true?159501:19:38.800 --> 01:19:40.800



Is that just a bunch of bullshit?159601:19:40.960 --> 01:19:43.279



Are you talking about?159701:19:41.600 --> 01:19:46.920



There's there's a well I got I've got the right159801:19:46.960 --> 01:19:50.439



there that globalists plan to collapse everything. I got that159901:19:50.520 --> 01:19:54.159



book sent by Yeah he actually signed that and send160001:19:54.159 --> 01:19:58.560



it to which was great. But yeah, there's that. But also,160101:19:58.720 --> 01:20:02.520



you know, everyone thinks that Israel runs America, that Qatar160201:20:02.680 --> 01:20:06.319



runs America just because they may donate and they have160301:20:06.359 --> 01:20:10.239



all this power and influence. It's really like, you know,160401:20:10.359 --> 01:20:13.039



dropping the bucket compared to everything else that the US does.160501:20:13.239 --> 01:20:15.720



And you know, the US also influences other nations. We160601:20:15.760 --> 01:20:18.199



do the same thing. But what what what is your160701:20:18.239 --> 01:20:22.600



take on on whether or not that is true? And160801:20:23.880 --> 01:20:25.720



you're also I'm going to do a follow up like160901:20:25.960 --> 01:20:29.159



our relationships with these countries, like how far do you161001:20:29.199 --> 01:20:31.760



think we should go in supporting them as well? So161101:20:31.840 --> 01:20:35.279



let's start with how you feel or what your viewpoint161201:20:35.399 --> 01:20:36.079



is on whether or.161301:20:36.079 --> 01:20:39.960



Not other countries are actually running our nation. I think161401:20:39.960 --> 01:20:42.319



they have an influence of it. I think that the161501:20:42.439 --> 01:20:44.960



United Nations is probably the worst out of all of161601:20:44.960 --> 01:20:49.359



them about the about the perpetrators of running other countries161701:20:49.399 --> 01:20:53.279



and running this country. UH. I really believe that that's so. Uh,161801:20:53.640 --> 01:20:56.800



even though we disdain the UH the United Nations and161901:20:56.840 --> 01:20:58.960



why it's still sitting in New York I have no162001:20:59.039 --> 01:21:02.439



idea because they they don't represent us at all. Yeah.162101:21:02.520 --> 01:21:04.560



Well, some will argue the UN is really the US.162201:21:04.840 --> 01:21:08.640



Yeah, and you know, all I got to do is162301:21:08.640 --> 01:21:11.680



look at the Look at the headline this morning Israel162401:21:11.720 --> 01:21:14.880



and Hamasra back at it. Oh yeah, so so I162501:21:14.920 --> 01:21:16.680



mean look at that. Now. Now we're in a Klaig162601:21:16.800 --> 01:21:19.560



mayrble where where President Trump says, you know, we're gonna162701:21:19.600 --> 01:21:21.079



go in there, We're gonna kill them all. So now162801:21:21.119 --> 01:21:24.800



we're gonna get troops on the ground over there. You've162901:21:24.800 --> 01:21:27.840



got the Klaus Swabs, You've got the the the w163001:21:28.000 --> 01:21:31.000



e F. You've got the Rothschilds and the old money163101:21:31.159 --> 01:21:34.479



that that could be or could not be running the world.163201:21:34.520 --> 01:21:37.680



You've got the Putins, You've got the Kim John Ouns.163301:21:37.760 --> 01:21:41.039



You've got all this stuff that is all combined in163401:21:41.159 --> 01:21:46.479



an interconnected network of people that actually do influence what163501:21:46.520 --> 01:21:49.439



goes on in the world. So it would be silly163601:21:49.439 --> 01:21:53.560



of me not to say that that other countries don't163701:21:53.560 --> 01:21:56.560



influence what happens in the United States, as well as163801:21:56.600 --> 01:21:59.319



those countries have influence about what's going on in their163901:21:59.359 --> 01:22:02.279



country by the United States, by the Saudi Ist, by164001:22:02.399 --> 01:22:05.279



Israel by whoever you think it's going to be. I164101:22:05.319 --> 01:22:10.279



think that, unfortunately, that we're probably running into a one164201:22:10.279 --> 01:22:13.880



world government eventually, not not in my lifetime. I mean,164301:22:13.920 --> 01:22:15.399



I'm you know, I've got one foot in the grave.164401:22:15.439 --> 01:22:17.840



I've probably got fifteen twenty years left, and.164501:22:18.760 --> 01:22:20.279



You never know the way things are going on, yeah,164601:22:20.319 --> 01:22:21.479



you never know. I don't want to live to be164701:22:21.479 --> 01:22:25.119



one hundred it that way, gotcha.164801:22:25.640 --> 01:22:29.760



But no, I think that unfortunately, unless I see it,164901:22:30.439 --> 01:22:34.920



there's not enough turn in the actual world of countries165001:22:35.039 --> 01:22:38.399



and you know, and stuff like that that is able165101:22:38.439 --> 01:22:41.239



to turn the tide of a one world government. I165201:22:41.640 --> 01:22:45.199



really think that there's powers out there that are are165301:22:45.319 --> 01:22:49.840



more powerful, you know, money's talks, bullshit walks, and I165401:22:49.880 --> 01:22:52.640



think that that that the situation that we're looking at.165501:22:52.680 --> 01:22:55.479



Look at UK, look at all those European nations that165601:22:55.560 --> 01:22:59.720



are all just going to this one world government that165701:22:59.720 --> 01:23:03.720



they feel is correct. Saudi Arabia is going to be165801:23:03.720 --> 01:23:05.399



one of those people like the United States that are165901:23:05.399 --> 01:23:07.479



going to kind of push back on that. But I166001:23:07.520 --> 01:23:10.439



think eventually you're going to have that situation where you know,166101:23:11.399 --> 01:23:15.159



one or more is going to have to capitulate. Think166201:23:15.479 --> 01:23:16.079



I think that.166301:23:17.840 --> 01:23:22.159



There's definitely influence, but I don't think ownership as people166401:23:22.199 --> 01:23:25.720



are trying to say, we give Israel a hell of166501:23:25.720 --> 01:23:27.680



a lot more than they give us, and people will say, well, yeah,166601:23:27.680 --> 01:23:30.399



but they buy it back. It's not all buyback and166701:23:30.439 --> 01:23:34.720



military supplies. It literally is not three point five billion166801:23:34.720 --> 01:23:37.640



a year regardless is our commitment, and that's not all166901:23:37.640 --> 01:23:40.439



of it. That's just the minimum level that we send them.167001:23:40.760 --> 01:23:44.239



But we also fund two hundred and some odd countries167101:23:44.239 --> 01:23:46.920



and territories about the unit throughout the entire world. I167201:23:46.960 --> 01:23:49.680



think last time I looked up combining territories and countries167301:23:49.720 --> 01:23:54.119



was two hundred and forty period were Misspuney.167401:23:53.720 --> 01:23:56.920



Who has more military bases and more countries than anybody else?167501:23:56.960 --> 01:23:59.159



We do for sure, man, absolutely, you know.167601:24:00.199 --> 01:24:02.520



I mean we got the largest military base in the167701:24:02.520 --> 01:24:04.840



Middle East right there in Qatar, which is you know167801:24:05.199 --> 01:24:07.039



why that relationship is important. I know a lot of167901:24:07.039 --> 01:24:09.920



people like they were like, why are you saying there168001:24:09.720 --> 01:24:12.199



are our greatest? And I didn't say that they are168101:24:12.199 --> 01:24:14.560



our greatest. They're considered one of our greatest. There for168201:24:14.600 --> 01:24:16.720



the reason that we have that relationship to where they168301:24:16.720 --> 01:24:20.399



allow us to host our biggest military base in the168401:24:20.399 --> 01:24:23.880



Middle East. So you know, when you have countries like168501:24:24.000 --> 01:24:25.560



Israel who decide that they're just going to go ahead168601:24:25.560 --> 01:24:29.399



and attack Moss leaders on Katari soil, that kind of168701:24:29.439 --> 01:24:31.359



creates a problem for us.168801:24:31.840 --> 01:24:34.079



And so that that's was what I was meaning by that.168901:24:34.119 --> 01:24:36.319



And even under Biden, I know, none of us respect him,169001:24:36.359 --> 01:24:38.880



but you know, even he stated on his under his169101:24:38.880 --> 01:24:41.640



administration before then that Qatar was one of our greatest169201:24:41.680 --> 01:24:43.399



allies in the area. But they got to understand the169301:24:43.399 --> 01:24:46.840



context because of that, you know, and so they try169401:24:46.840 --> 01:24:49.000



to play Switzerland in the Middle East, but they're really not.169501:24:49.079 --> 01:24:51.319



We know they're playing both sides. The US accepted it.169601:24:51.359 --> 01:24:54.119



We know that we're not stupid, but we also have169701:24:54.199 --> 01:24:57.359



the power by way of having our base right there169801:24:57.439 --> 01:25:00.920



to go hold on, guys, let me let me, let169901:25:00.920 --> 01:25:04.319



me really back a bit. So it's a very tricky170001:25:04.359 --> 01:25:07.119



relationship there. But you know, I don't I don't think170101:25:07.159 --> 01:25:10.319



that anybody is running us necessarily. Yeah, yeah, sure, we170201:25:10.399 --> 01:25:13.680



may have some politicians that are influencing definitely. You know,170301:25:13.720 --> 01:25:16.279



look out like we could talk about Ilhan Omar, who170401:25:16.760 --> 01:25:19.520



basically looks out for Somalia first before the United States.170501:25:19.520 --> 01:25:21.239



But I'm not sure, it's all due to funding. She's170601:25:21.319 --> 01:25:25.079



just just fucking out there. And then you have other170701:25:25.439 --> 01:25:29.479



politicians who may be more pro Israel, but I don't.170801:25:29.520 --> 01:25:31.600



I don't think Israel's running the United States of America170901:25:31.600 --> 01:25:34.600



because when push comes to shove, I guarantee you the171001:25:34.720 --> 01:25:35.520



US is going to go.171101:25:35.520 --> 01:25:37.880



No, no, no, no, hold on, guys. And we've done it before,171201:25:38.079 --> 01:25:41.000



We've done it. Breaks tapped the breaks. Brother. Yeah. I171301:25:41.000 --> 01:25:43.279



mean really, like I said, it's all about money. And171401:25:43.359 --> 01:25:46.039



every place that we have a military base in, uh,171501:25:46.159 --> 01:25:49.239



the country that we're in there is all about the171601:25:49.399 --> 01:25:51.960



American dollar. And I can talk about the American dollar,171701:25:51.960 --> 01:25:55.079



and I can talk about the deflation that the value171801:25:55.239 --> 01:25:58.720



the dollar, but still people out there in the in171901:25:58.920 --> 01:26:02.760



the in the world want American dollars. American dollars are172001:26:02.800 --> 01:26:06.600



still what fuels, uh, the economies of many nations. And172101:26:06.680 --> 01:26:11.079



until that changes, uh, you know, the military, the United172201:26:11.119 --> 01:26:13.199



States military, and the United States is gonna have more172301:26:13.199 --> 01:26:16.079



influence over the world than any other superpower in the172401:26:16.239 --> 01:26:17.520



in the in the world.172501:26:17.560 --> 01:26:20.520



So well, China is definitely contesting that power as of life,172601:26:20.520 --> 01:26:23.119



but they've they've been on this multi year plan. I172701:26:23.119 --> 01:26:26.039



think it's like a thousand year or hundred year plan. Yeah,172801:26:26.119 --> 01:26:28.520



I forgot how they coined it, but they've they've they've172901:26:28.520 --> 01:26:30.319



been on the path to control the world.173001:26:30.720 --> 01:26:30.920



Yeah.173101:26:31.239 --> 01:26:32.479



Well, I don't know if they'll get there, but they're173201:26:32.479 --> 01:26:35.600



definitely they definitely got they definitely have influence.173301:26:35.239 --> 01:26:38.000



Yeah, lifetime. But like I said, you know, I keep173401:26:38.039 --> 01:26:40.600



saying that in my life and I hope that well.173501:26:40.640 --> 01:26:44.000



And let's talk about the what you said about the173601:26:44.039 --> 01:26:48.880



one world government. I think I've been thinking about this more,173701:26:49.479 --> 01:26:52.520



uh and and it seems like that's where it's heading.173801:26:52.560 --> 01:26:56.239



But Brice, I'm also realizing that the problem with that173901:26:57.239 --> 01:27:03.479



is money aside, money doesn't matter, or two extreme fundamentalist174001:27:04.159 --> 01:27:08.920



fundamental idealists period. And then now we're talking about cultures174101:27:08.920 --> 01:27:10.760



and religions. How are you going to reign in one174201:27:10.800 --> 01:27:14.880



point eight nine million billion Muslims?174301:27:15.319 --> 01:27:16.159



How are you going to do that?174401:27:16.359 --> 01:27:20.640



How are you going to suddenly integrate a fundamental belief174501:27:21.039 --> 01:27:23.840



in Islam based on the Quran and get them to174601:27:23.840 --> 01:27:26.239



integrate with the entire world and rule them under one government?174701:27:26.279 --> 01:27:28.640



How's that going to happen? That's not going to happen,174801:27:28.720 --> 01:27:31.439



going to be one great, big, huge civil war. And174901:27:32.119 --> 01:27:37.600



I don't I was talking about. Yeah, I'll go back175001:27:37.600 --> 01:27:40.399



to my statement. I think that we're heading that way.175101:27:40.960 --> 01:27:42.479



Oh no, I agree, but it's going to be a175201:27:42.520 --> 01:27:44.039



bloody It's going to be a bloody mess.175301:27:44.079 --> 01:27:45.800



I think they're pushing for it. But I but the175401:27:45.880 --> 01:27:47.039



more I think about it is like, how are they175501:27:47.039 --> 01:27:50.199



going to make that happen? Are they going to literally175601:27:50.199 --> 01:27:55.720



try to kill almost two billion people to make it happen?175701:27:55.960 --> 01:28:00.720



Of course, basically sure they would, why not? You know?175801:28:01.359 --> 01:28:03.520



But then but then here's the other question though, So,175901:28:03.640 --> 01:28:07.399



so China is going to come to heal as well.176001:28:07.279 --> 01:28:12.039



Then some of the larger countries like China, Yeah, I176101:28:12.039 --> 01:28:14.720



don't think so, because they have their own internal problems176201:28:14.720 --> 01:28:17.920



with their ethnic uh people that they've let in and176301:28:17.920 --> 01:28:20.479



and you know, the different people. I mean, China is huge,176401:28:20.479 --> 01:28:24.680



same with the with the with the the Russia. I176501:28:24.760 --> 01:28:27.079



mean it's still huge. There's still a huge sport of176601:28:27.680 --> 01:28:30.239



different ethnicities and stuff like that. And they've got same176701:28:30.279 --> 01:28:33.840



with India, and they've got their own problems within their176801:28:33.960 --> 01:28:37.199



their own continents. But I do think that some of176901:28:37.239 --> 01:28:39.920



the lesser nations like the UK is just lost, that177001:28:40.119 --> 01:28:43.560



they're just lost and they've been lost for some time. Yeah,177101:28:43.680 --> 01:28:47.199



and and you know, you get that little cancer. Selling177201:28:47.319 --> 01:28:50.640



cancer seems to want to metastasize and move itself out,177301:28:50.880 --> 01:28:53.079



So it is going to move itself out, you know,177401:28:53.319 --> 01:28:57.119



and and infect other countries. So whether it infects you know,177501:28:57.199 --> 01:28:59.319



a little bit of Russia, whether it effects a little177601:28:59.359 --> 01:29:01.199



bit of China, that it affects a little bit of177701:29:01.399 --> 01:29:05.079



the United States, it's eventually gonna metastasize and get into177801:29:05.119 --> 01:29:08.760



those countries. But it already has been. But uh uh,177901:29:09.199 --> 01:29:11.800



Like I said, it's not going to happen in my lifetime.178001:29:11.840 --> 01:29:14.560



But I think that there's there's truth And if you've178101:29:14.560 --> 01:29:17.800



ever seen the time machine where people are going to178201:29:17.840 --> 01:29:20.199



get into that notion that you know it's going to178301:29:20.279 --> 01:29:24.960



be an autonomous, one kind of government type of situation. Now, well,178401:29:25.079 --> 01:29:26.680



is it going to be able to be governed and178501:29:26.760 --> 01:29:29.399



anything successfully? I don't know. You're always going to have178601:29:29.439 --> 01:29:31.680



those factions. You're always going to have a religious faction,178701:29:31.720 --> 01:29:35.119



You're always going to have a fundamentalist faction. You're always178801:29:35.119 --> 01:29:37.199



going to have a terrorist faction that's going to seek178901:29:37.239 --> 01:29:40.359



to undermine whatever kind of government is is around them.179001:29:41.199 --> 01:29:44.239



I don't know if it'll be uh necessarily a one179101:29:44.239 --> 01:29:48.880



world government, but more like more like the Five Families179201:29:48.880 --> 01:29:51.640



of the American mob back in the you know where179301:29:51.640 --> 01:29:54.079



they Yeah, they come in and meet and go, Okay, guys,179401:29:55.319 --> 01:29:56.640



how are we going to handle banking? How we are going179501:29:56.680 --> 01:29:58.680



to handle money? You know, things like that. I think179601:29:58.720 --> 01:30:02.439



that would probably be be more what a one world179701:30:02.479 --> 01:30:04.840



government would look like, because it's gonna be too hard179801:30:04.880 --> 01:30:08.359



to wrangle in all the different cultures, beliefs, et cetera179901:30:08.720 --> 01:30:09.960



and get them all come to here. There's there's no180001:30:09.960 --> 01:30:12.319



ways gona happen. But but I can see that situation.180101:30:12.359 --> 01:30:16.079



I can see you know, like China, America, EU, et cetera.180201:30:16.359 --> 01:30:19.520



They're already doing it, but like literally really coming together180301:30:19.880 --> 01:30:22.000



and really deciding we're working together and we're going to180401:30:22.039 --> 01:30:25.119



control everything, and this is how we're gonna do it. So,180501:30:25.439 --> 01:30:27.600



you know, we got digital ID being pushed in the UK,180601:30:28.640 --> 01:30:32.199



how long is it before that starts to infiltrate, like180701:30:32.239 --> 01:30:34.680



you said, infect the rest of the countries around them.180801:30:34.760 --> 01:30:36.920



And listen, it's not just the UK that's lost. Friends.180901:30:38.720 --> 01:30:40.600



We do we do, we okay, we do.181001:30:40.960 --> 01:30:44.319



But at the same time, they're not at the point181101:30:44.359 --> 01:30:48.199



where they're controlling our banking right, These are just these181201:30:48.239 --> 01:30:51.399



are just doorways or portals to be able to manage181301:30:51.399 --> 01:30:52.680



those things by us.181401:30:53.239 --> 01:30:53.760



But we're not.181501:30:54.239 --> 01:30:58.600



We're not being controlled by the government yet yet China181601:30:58.680 --> 01:30:59.000



does it.181701:30:59.079 --> 01:30:59.720



They already do it.181801:30:59.760 --> 01:31:02.000



They have a social credit score system, which, by the way,181901:31:02.039 --> 01:31:04.119



I hear from what I've been seeing reports gotta dig182001:31:04.119 --> 01:31:06.079



into it has been backfiring on them as of late.182101:31:06.640 --> 01:31:10.439



It looks like economically they're starting to slip backwards. But182201:31:11.319 --> 01:31:13.560



you know in the UK they're they're they're pushing this182301:31:14.800 --> 01:31:18.399



and and Starmar's like standing behind it and he's like, Nope,182401:31:18.479 --> 01:31:20.479



moving forward. This is going This is how it's going182501:31:20.520 --> 01:31:22.239



to be. And if you don't like it, too bad.182601:31:22.840 --> 01:31:26.560



And we also have Canada with their mandate of the182701:31:26.560 --> 01:31:28.520



gun buy back, you have no choices, like you gotta182801:31:28.560 --> 01:31:32.800



tell this date to turn in your weapons. They already182901:31:32.800 --> 01:31:34.720



did it in Australia years back. I saw how that183001:31:34.760 --> 01:31:38.159



turned out for them during COVID, right exactly. So I183101:31:38.399 --> 01:31:40.279



think I think you're right, we're on track to it.183201:31:40.319 --> 01:31:43.199



I'm just trying to understand what that would look like like.183301:31:43.439 --> 01:31:46.000



There's no I think it's going to be a conglomerate183401:31:46.039 --> 01:31:48.720



of people like a five families type situation where they're183501:31:48.720 --> 01:31:53.680



gonna come together and then decide on certain things like banking, housing,183601:31:53.760 --> 01:31:55.800



like whatever, stuff like that. But there's no way they're183701:31:55.800 --> 01:31:57.880



going to be able to rule, Like there's not going183801:31:57.960 --> 01:32:01.640



to be on TV or whatever communications the system have183901:32:01.720 --> 01:32:04.439



then one person representing the entire world.184001:32:04.479 --> 01:32:05.880



I don't know if that's yeah, I don't think there's184101:32:05.880 --> 01:32:08.119



going to be like this one world president or anything184201:32:08.159 --> 01:32:10.960



like that. We're never going to get to Star Treks. Yeah, exactly.184301:32:11.319 --> 01:32:15.159



You know, for people don't know, just just read those184401:32:15.159 --> 01:32:16.600



books or look into that. And that was kind of184501:32:16.720 --> 01:32:19.760



you know, what the whole year Star Trek was was184601:32:19.760 --> 01:32:21.039



being able to become one world.184701:32:21.079 --> 01:32:23.079



We're all work together. Kumba A. I don't know, I184801:32:23.079 --> 01:32:25.279



don't Yeah, I mean, but but but when you're talking184901:32:25.279 --> 01:32:27.640



about you're talking about that has to be done with technology,185001:32:28.079 --> 01:32:30.880



and technology is really scary these days, especially when we're185101:32:30.880 --> 01:32:33.119



walking around with something you know, as powerful as the185201:32:33.199 --> 01:32:36.199



laptop computer that we have you know in here, and185301:32:36.720 --> 01:32:39.439



you know we're tracked all the time. All you got185401:32:39.439 --> 01:32:41.680



to do is you know, type something or or or185501:32:41.760 --> 01:32:43.960



mentioning something into a microphone and all of a sudden185601:32:43.960 --> 01:32:46.119



it's popping up on your TV, it's popping up on185701:32:46.159 --> 01:32:49.119



your feeds, it's popping up everywhere. Uh, we're not far185801:32:49.119 --> 01:32:51.920



away from it. We're not far away from being controlled,185901:32:52.399 --> 01:32:55.239



you know, seeing as what China is doing. Uh, we're186001:32:55.239 --> 01:32:58.720



not far away from somebody like Starmer saying, you know,186101:32:58.920 --> 01:33:01.760



Trump is almost there, but Farmers saying, hey, you don't186201:33:01.800 --> 01:33:03.720



like it. This is what's happening. This is this is186301:33:03.760 --> 01:33:06.600



what we're doing. I can't believe what I'm seeing in186401:33:06.640 --> 01:33:10.439



the UK right now. It's just unbelievable. With they're talking about,186501:33:10.479 --> 01:33:12.880



you know, well, we love free speech, but we're gonna186601:33:12.880 --> 01:33:16.159



put you in jail for a Facebook post or or186701:33:16.199 --> 01:33:22.359



they're unfettered, uh, their unfettered uh borders of immigration that186801:33:22.359 --> 01:33:26.039



they're letting people just change the whole culture of what186901:33:26.119 --> 01:33:29.119



the UK used to be in order to just like,187001:33:29.279 --> 01:33:32.279



you know, push down their own people in order to187101:33:32.640 --> 01:33:35.760



find you know, favor with with with Islam and the187201:33:35.840 --> 01:33:38.399



Muslims that are that are in the area, and to187301:33:38.439 --> 01:33:41.399



be able to accept the Sharia law and the other187401:33:41.560 --> 01:33:44.720



cultures and stuff like that. They're able that that seem187501:33:44.800 --> 01:33:47.640



not to want to assimilate into the culture of where187601:33:47.680 --> 01:33:50.680



they moved to or immigrated to. But the same thing187701:33:50.760 --> 01:33:55.279



is happening in the United States. We're fighting different factions187801:33:55.279 --> 01:33:57.239



here and there in different states that are going like,187901:33:57.279 --> 01:33:59.920



we don't want sharia law here. I don't want sharia lawyer.188001:34:00.239 --> 01:34:02.439



I'm used to the law that that I'm used to188101:34:02.600 --> 01:34:05.279



being under. And if my wife has to worry about188201:34:05.439 --> 01:34:08.479



being in a certain area of town where she needs188301:34:08.479 --> 01:34:11.479



to cover her face or whatever like that, bullshit, That's188401:34:11.479 --> 01:34:13.800



not what I did that, that's not what it's all about.188501:34:14.199 --> 01:34:17.600



And I think that the the the uh, the other188601:34:17.720 --> 01:34:21.199



countries in this world are are you know, like I said,188701:34:21.199 --> 01:34:25.399



even ours are slowly shifting to to that norm. And188801:34:25.439 --> 01:34:28.640



whether it be the the enormity of the islam face188901:34:28.760 --> 01:34:31.079



or the muddle of face or whatever you want to say.189001:34:31.119 --> 01:34:34.399



And Christianity is on its way out or or maybe189101:34:34.399 --> 01:34:36.479



it's on his way back up. With the killing of189201:34:36.600 --> 01:34:39.960



you know, Charlie kirk Uh, you know, there's there's a189301:34:40.319 --> 01:34:43.000



there's a retribution to be had, and I don't know189401:34:43.039 --> 01:34:44.720



which way it's going to go. I'm kind of scared189501:34:44.720 --> 01:34:45.119



about it.189601:34:47.039 --> 01:34:49.800



I think the EU or the European countries need to189701:34:49.800 --> 01:34:55.560



be like Poland. Poland isn't messing around. They don't care that,189801:34:55.640 --> 01:34:58.760



you know, they're controlling their borders. Uh, you know, you're189901:34:59.359 --> 01:35:03.319



you can't give away your own culture and your statehood190001:35:04.039 --> 01:35:08.119



due to empathy and under the guise of empathy and acceptance.190101:35:08.199 --> 01:35:10.680



Is how since you brought it up and we're talking190201:35:10.720 --> 01:35:14.039



about it, Islam itself is going to infiltrate other countries190301:35:14.880 --> 01:35:16.359



and turn their cultures.190401:35:16.720 --> 01:35:21.199



And since we're talking about UK, it's funny.190501:35:20.880 --> 01:35:23.439



How you know, we had all these videos and people190601:35:23.479 --> 01:35:27.439



pushing the rhetoric that, oh, you know, the culture of190701:35:27.640 --> 01:35:29.880



UK wasn't all white. Now they're trying to push out190801:35:29.880 --> 01:35:32.239



the idea of it being a white nation. Well, I'm sorry,190901:35:32.239 --> 01:35:35.479



but white people are actually indigenous to that area.191001:35:35.680 --> 01:35:35.840



I know.191101:35:35.840 --> 01:35:37.359



People don't want to believe. They all want to believe191201:35:37.399 --> 01:35:42.119



that it's always a person of color. Was the inhabitants191301:35:42.119 --> 01:35:44.600



of all places in the world really a person of191401:35:44.640 --> 01:35:48.479



color inhabited and colonized and developed, you know, the areas191501:35:48.479 --> 01:35:52.319



of the north of ice and snow. Sure, right, And191601:35:52.640 --> 01:35:54.760



that's not true, you know, and the people of the191701:35:54.840 --> 01:35:57.479



UK or skin color is white and this isn't a191801:35:57.479 --> 01:35:59.880



white versus black or color thing. I'm just saying that191901:36:00.079 --> 01:36:05.239



they're intentionally, intentionally pushing the narratives to change the culture192001:36:05.279 --> 01:36:07.000



and get you to accept it under the guise of192101:36:07.119 --> 01:36:13.960



racism and empathy and acceptance. And what we're seeing with192201:36:14.319 --> 01:36:16.479



what's happening in New York with Mondamie is like, how192301:36:16.520 --> 01:36:20.079



scary is that? Yeah, you know, and people say that, oh,192401:36:20.119 --> 01:36:21.920



he's in trouble because of the debate he had. Why192501:36:21.960 --> 01:36:25.279



because he's he asked whether or not Cuomo visited a mosque, Like,192601:36:25.319 --> 01:36:27.720



who gives a fuck? How many fucking Catholic cathedrals as192701:36:28.000 --> 01:36:30.479



Madambie been to? How many times has he fucking prayed192801:36:30.520 --> 01:36:32.720



the rosary or got his knee down on in a pew?192901:36:33.119 --> 01:36:37.560



Like seriously, that's what sways the votes? How ridiculous are people?193001:36:38.479 --> 01:36:41.880



It's pretty scary to listen to Mandami speak, you know,193101:36:42.399 --> 01:36:44.920



getting back to us politics and what's going on in193201:36:44.920 --> 01:36:48.359



New York. It's scary to me to think that that's193301:36:48.399 --> 01:36:52.159



it's all related. Though, yeah, it's all related, but I mean,193401:36:52.279 --> 01:36:57.199



you know, it's pretty scary to living where I came from.193501:36:57.239 --> 01:36:59.039



I mean, I was born in the sixties, I grew193601:36:59.079 --> 01:37:02.199



up in the seventies, I matured in the eighties. You know,193701:37:02.279 --> 01:37:05.000



got married in the nineties and here I am today.193801:37:06.520 --> 01:37:09.159



To be able to listen to somebody like Mdamie, to193901:37:09.199 --> 01:37:12.760



be able to listen to Ilian Omar, to be able194001:37:12.760 --> 01:37:16.680



to listen to AOC is totally foreign to me. But194101:37:18.640 --> 01:37:21.840



I don't count anymore because I'm a dying I'm a194201:37:21.920 --> 01:37:27.800



dying voting block. My voting block is getting slimmer as194301:37:27.920 --> 01:37:32.520



we age, and these young people are coming up, and194401:37:32.680 --> 01:37:35.079



I have faith that you know, some of the young people,194501:37:35.600 --> 01:37:37.279



There's still going to be a fifty to fifty split194601:37:37.479 --> 01:37:39.640



no matter what happens, there's still going to be a194701:37:39.680 --> 01:37:43.680



fifty to fifty split. But I can't feel sorry for194801:37:43.760 --> 01:37:47.720



the people in New York City that are going to194901:37:47.800 --> 01:37:51.239



vote Mondamia as their governor. I don't feel sorry for195001:37:51.359 --> 01:37:55.439



the people in Minnesota who keep Ilion Omar in power.195101:37:56.840 --> 01:38:00.239



You get what you freaking vote for, no matter the195201:38:00.319 --> 01:38:03.039



makeup of your city is either there's a lot of195301:38:03.199 --> 01:38:06.600



conservatives in there, but there's more Democrats. But I don't know.195401:38:07.159 --> 01:38:10.199



Okay, But that argument though, that argum members, which I195501:38:10.720 --> 01:38:13.800



do agree with what you're saying. That's on the surface.195601:38:14.119 --> 01:38:16.840



Let's let's be honest, you're saying in that situation, they195701:38:16.840 --> 01:38:18.520



got what they vote for. Now that applies a lot195801:38:18.520 --> 01:38:20.640



to what happened in California when we're talking earlier, but195901:38:20.680 --> 01:38:23.439



we're talking about like ilhan Omar. Her district is made196001:38:23.479 --> 01:38:28.119



up with largely Somalian immigrants. They have the power, they've196101:38:28.119 --> 01:38:32.359



already they've already went ahead and shifted and tilted the196201:38:32.479 --> 01:38:35.279



balance in their favor. Same thing that's happening in New196301:38:35.359 --> 01:38:40.079



York under everyone's nose. You have this Muslim population that196401:38:40.159 --> 01:38:43.520



has grown exponentially, just blown up, and now that you196501:38:43.560 --> 01:38:45.680



have someone like Mandami, it's getting all of them to196601:38:45.720 --> 01:38:48.600



come together and unite to cast their vote because they196701:38:48.640 --> 01:38:49.960



know that they can, they.196801:38:49.760 --> 01:38:51.279



Have the power to do so.196901:38:51.279 --> 01:38:53.239



So while they may have gotten what they voted for,197001:38:53.560 --> 01:38:54.920



who voted for it?197101:38:55.000 --> 01:38:57.039



Like? Who got what they voted for? That's another question.197201:38:57.119 --> 01:38:59.359



That's what I'm saying, is that you don't have the197301:38:59.359 --> 01:39:02.199



Republican Party or the Conservative Party or the Democrat Party197401:39:02.199 --> 01:39:07.880



who's against even Mandami and the numbers enough to over over,197501:39:07.960 --> 01:39:11.600



you knowwhelm that vote because people just don't get interested197601:39:11.640 --> 01:39:13.800



about it. They're busy, Like me, like, when I get197701:39:13.840 --> 01:39:16.399



done with this podcast, I got another podcast. I got197801:39:16.439 --> 01:39:19.119



to prepare for tonight. You know, I'm having Aaron, you know,197901:39:20.000 --> 01:39:23.119



a repeat of Aaron that I did earlier, that I'm198001:39:23.119 --> 01:39:24.880



doing but I got to do that. I've got stuff198101:39:24.920 --> 01:39:26.720



that I got to do out of my yard. I've198201:39:26.720 --> 01:39:28.840



got shopping to do, I've got this to do. Right,198301:39:28.960 --> 01:39:31.439



people are so consumed with their own lives and go198401:39:31.640 --> 01:39:34.960



so consumed with other things in their lives that that oh,198501:39:35.039 --> 01:39:37.399



you know, this will take care of itself. Somebody will198601:39:37.439 --> 01:39:39.960



vote him out or they'll be a pushback, and then198701:39:39.960 --> 01:39:42.800



you wake up on the morning after the election, they're like,198801:39:42.840 --> 01:39:46.279



oh my god, they fucking won, you know, and then198901:39:46.439 --> 01:39:49.039



they're just going like, well, now what you know? So199001:39:49.119 --> 01:39:52.159



I really believe that the political parties number one aren't199101:39:52.199 --> 01:39:55.079



doing their job. Some of them do it better than others. Okay,199201:39:55.159 --> 01:39:57.119



the Democrats are out there, they got a machine, they199301:39:57.119 --> 01:40:00.199



know how to freaking run an election. And Democrats when199401:40:00.199 --> 01:40:02.720



they get into like California here, or excuse me, the199501:40:02.720 --> 01:40:06.159



Republicans when they talk about winning elections here in California,199601:40:06.319 --> 01:40:09.000



just do not put out the effort to go ahead199701:40:09.079 --> 01:40:12.800



and run a decent candidate, nor do they know how199801:40:12.840 --> 01:40:15.479



to get their people involved enough to want to go199901:40:15.520 --> 01:40:18.159



out and vote. So a lot of times, you know,200001:40:18.279 --> 01:40:21.319



a lot of seats around here in California get get200101:40:21.439 --> 01:40:24.920



uncontested because Republicans just says I'm not going to win,200201:40:25.039 --> 01:40:28.319



so why run? You know. So you know, like I200301:40:28.359 --> 01:40:30.239



said that, that's where I get my premise that you200401:40:30.279 --> 01:40:32.920



get what you vote for because there's not enough base200501:40:33.000 --> 01:40:36.640



or there's not enough enthusiasm of that candidate or that200601:40:37.199 --> 01:40:40.159



or that party to move themselves forward. It's almost like200701:40:40.159 --> 01:40:44.399



you get what you don't vote for. Yeah, right. You know.200801:40:44.439 --> 01:40:46.960



The thing with we're talking about the youth in the200901:40:46.960 --> 01:40:49.920



future is like the fact that someone like AOC who's201001:40:50.199 --> 01:40:53.039



I mean, I hate to say it because sometimes she201101:40:53.079 --> 01:40:55.520



actually has a sliver of genius, but a box of201201:40:55.600 --> 01:40:59.760



rocks can literally become the representative in her district.201301:41:00.000 --> 01:41:01.000



About my baby like.201401:41:00.960 --> 01:41:04.560



That, and then the other the other one that's baffling me,201501:41:04.640 --> 01:41:07.000



my brother and I on our other show all the time.201601:41:07.079 --> 01:41:09.399



Hank Johnson, Oh my god, have you seen this guy? No?201701:41:09.560 --> 01:41:10.720



Have I just encourage you to.201801:41:10.720 --> 01:41:15.159



Look into representative Hank Johnson contract. There is absolutely no201901:41:15.239 --> 01:41:18.199



reason this guy keeps getting re elected. I'm just gonna202001:41:18.239 --> 01:41:21.159



leave that there. Just just looking at I guarantee you202101:41:22.600 --> 01:41:24.359



it's gonna be amazing content for your shows.202201:41:24.399 --> 01:41:25.119



You're gonna love it.202301:41:25.399 --> 01:41:28.640



I'm gonna say that he takes the cake.202401:41:29.479 --> 01:41:32.239



That's all I'm gonna say. And that's saying a lot. Right, Well,202501:41:32.319 --> 01:41:35.399



you got to ask yourself, you know, Lori Lightfoot was202601:41:35.439 --> 01:41:39.720



probably the worst worst mayor of Chicago in history, and202701:41:39.760 --> 01:41:43.560



they turned around. Now they got Brandon Johnson. What do202801:41:43.560 --> 01:41:46.039



you do that? How do you top Yeah? How do202901:41:46.039 --> 01:41:48.640



you top that? See you see clip after clip after203001:41:48.720 --> 01:41:54.520



clip of him in a city council meeting with his people. Oh,203101:41:55.119 --> 01:41:57.920



going like, you're despectable, this is what you're doing, blah203201:41:57.920 --> 01:42:00.640



blah blah blah blah blah. And then when they come203301:42:00.720 --> 01:42:04.279



to want to, you know, elect the mayor, they elect somebody.203401:42:04.279 --> 01:42:07.720



Even then, what they got rid of is I don't.203501:42:07.560 --> 01:42:10.960



Even know what the thought processes behind the voters when203601:42:10.960 --> 01:42:12.239



they like looked.203701:42:11.960 --> 01:42:16.239



At that situation. I mean serious, I don't get it.203801:42:16.319 --> 01:42:19.479



I don't get it. That's at all.203901:42:20.960 --> 01:42:23.960



We're not going to all right, sir? Do you want204001:42:23.960 --> 01:42:26.119



to wrap this up? I think have some time.204101:42:26.800 --> 01:42:28.319



You know, we're recording on a Sunday, so I got204201:42:28.359 --> 01:42:31.159



football to watch. You know that the world, you know, goes.204301:42:31.279 --> 01:42:35.199



My fantasy football is my fantasy football team is totally tanked.204401:42:35.680 --> 01:42:37.239



What was your what was your team? By the way,204501:42:37.680 --> 01:42:42.239



my team is the the Left Coast the Left Coast Burners,204601:42:41.720 --> 01:42:46.520



then Left Coast Burners. I'm in John Jamigo's uh Boomer204701:42:46.560 --> 01:42:50.760



Bunker's uh fantasy league, but my team is Miners. I'm204801:42:50.760 --> 01:42:53.439



the Niner fan you're in. Yeah, I've been a Niner204901:42:53.479 --> 01:42:56.199



fan forever. So, uh, you know, we'll see what happens today.205001:42:56.239 --> 01:42:59.520



I I thoroughly think after Atlanta's showing the last game205101:42:59.560 --> 01:43:02.520



that they have, uh, they're going to kick freaking Uh.205201:43:02.640 --> 01:43:04.239



San Francisco's asked today.205301:43:05.199 --> 01:43:07.399



The problem with Frisco, Man, I know we're not a205401:43:07.399 --> 01:43:09.960



sports show, but let'st I'm a Niner fan. The problem205501:43:10.000 --> 01:43:11.920



with the forty nine ers is how do we start205601:43:11.960 --> 01:43:13.760



the year with all of our starters getting hurt?205701:43:13.840 --> 01:43:16.600



Yeah, it's been. I don't get it, it's been. It's205801:43:16.640 --> 01:43:19.439



been that. It's been that turnstile for three or four205901:43:19.520 --> 01:43:20.640



years now, Yeah, it has.206001:43:20.800 --> 01:43:23.399



And you know it's just so are we gonna we're206101:43:23.399 --> 01:43:25.840



gonna start questioning the conditioning coaches?206201:43:25.920 --> 01:43:29.000



Yet? I think so the dietitians. I mean, something's not working.206301:43:29.439 --> 01:43:32.119



You've got you've got three hundred pound guys that are206401:43:32.159 --> 01:43:35.159



running around doing, you know, doing what world class printers206501:43:35.239 --> 01:43:38.399



used to do decade. You're right, So, I mean, you206601:43:38.479 --> 01:43:41.119



know you've got that aspect, you know, inertia and connect206701:43:41.239 --> 01:43:43.359



energy actually work, you.206801:43:43.319 --> 01:43:46.840



Know, And you're correct, But come on, how many other206901:43:46.880 --> 01:43:49.399



teams have this big of a percentage of their starters207001:43:49.479 --> 01:43:50.119



hurt and on the.207101:43:50.039 --> 01:43:53.199



Bench You'd be surprised. Man, there's a lot of people207201:43:53.239 --> 01:43:55.479



out there. There's a lot of starters that are hurt,207301:43:55.960 --> 01:43:59.119



and uh, it's just unfortunate that San Francisco just bears207401:43:59.119 --> 01:44:00.920



the front of all of that. Like I said, probably207501:44:01.000 --> 01:44:05.279



conditioning coach. Yeah, and even with the schedule that we had,207601:44:05.880 --> 01:44:09.399



we had the we had the weakest schedule out of everybody,207701:44:09.760 --> 01:44:13.199



and I just you know, I hope that Kittle coming207801:44:13.199 --> 01:44:15.880



back today is going to make a difference. I hope.207901:44:16.000 --> 01:44:18.760



I hope so too. Yeah, that does make a difference, Yes,208001:44:19.199 --> 01:44:21.439



because I had I had the other tight end on208101:44:21.479 --> 01:44:23.880



my on my team and they just seemed to forget208201:44:23.880 --> 01:44:26.520



about them the last couple of weeks. And not that208301:44:26.520 --> 01:44:30.119



it made any difference with my fantasy league, but it did. Well.208401:44:30.479 --> 01:44:31.880



We can only we can only hope.208501:44:32.000 --> 01:44:35.199



Hey, at least we have that, so you know, we're208601:44:35.199 --> 01:44:37.000



going to take a break from politics and watch football.208701:44:37.000 --> 01:44:38.840



Then we can argue NFL's not the politics anyway.208801:44:38.840 --> 01:44:41.359



But and I gotta go from my traditional three hundred208901:44:41.359 --> 01:44:44.680



dollars a week at Costco also today. Yeah, I hear that. Man.209001:44:44.920 --> 01:44:46.479

little bit cultural, a little bit slapstick, and a lot210001:45:10.119 --> 01:45:12.840

Honesty is a one way gate to help
