00:03:18.860 And why don't you guys ever talk about the Democrats or the Democrats? 0.52

00:03:23.060 Are you kidding me?

00:03:25.920 Oh, hello, by the way.

00:03:27.980 I'm Glenn.

00:03:28.760 It's Friday.

00:03:30.420 But that's not going to stop anything because I'm already on a roller coaster from Al.

00:03:37.280 And then, Mom Donnie, you know what?

00:03:39.880 I know this is radio, but I put a chalkboard together because if you happen to be watching,

00:03:49.460 I just want to show you how simple the math is.

00:03:53.440 Mom Donnie just tweeted out yesterday, if you have a second home in New York City worth

00:03:58.040 more than $5 million, check your mailbox when you're back in the five boroughs because you've

00:04:04.040 got mail he's taxing them because the best city in the world deserves the best parks libraries

00:04:12.180 and schools in the world and that's only possible when we all pay our fair share okay okay i'm gonna

00:04:19.940 show him how mathematics works socialist math it's not real i'll show you how real math works

00:04:28.880 and the exact consequences of how this happens,

00:04:33.640 how he's going to gut his city.

00:04:36.860 And we'll all be watching it from a great distance.

00:04:40.080 And so will many of the people who own homes currently in Manhattan.

00:04:44.260 They will find another place to live,

00:04:46.440 and they will be watching it happen to the bus driver

00:04:49.780 and the construction worker and everybody else.

00:04:52.200 And there's nothing we can do

00:04:53.660 because a lot of those people voted for Mondami.

00:04:57.180 All right, let me tell you about Z-Factor.

00:04:59.580 An alarm clock shouldn't be the worst enemy you face all day,

00:05:02.260 but when you've spent all night, you know, tossing and turning,

00:05:05.180 it just very well may be the worst thing you face.

00:05:09.620 Checking the time, turning the pillow over, trying to bargain with your brain,

00:05:13.320 hearing that thing go off in the morning is like, you know, getting bullied.

00:05:16.380 It is.

00:05:17.100 I need a safe space.

00:05:19.300 My alarm clock is bullying me.

00:05:21.980 I'm sorry.

00:05:23.320 It's the foundation for the patience, the focus, the energy of the rest of your day that it demands.

00:05:30.180 When your sleep cycle isn't everything you need, it's hard to do the job that you have to do.

00:05:39.500 That's why I'm glad that the people who created Relief Factor also created Z-Factor,

00:05:43.060 designed to help you fall asleep naturally, stay asleep through the night,

00:05:45.840 wake up feeling like you're actually rested instead of waiting for morning.

00:05:49.180 Don't spend time the first half of your day recovering from the night before.

00:05:52.100 Give your body a real chance to rest.

00:05:54.400 It's Z-Factor from Relief Factor.

00:06:02.980 Better sleep, better days.

00:06:04.300 From Z-Factor, from ReliefFactor.com. 1.00

00:06:07.660 All right, let me show you how the Momdani cascade happens, okay? 0.99

00:06:13.640 You start with the one man in the one letter,

00:06:17.240 and that letter comes out because Momdani sent it out

00:06:19.900 because we need libraries.

00:06:21.360 stories who's reading books anyway so he sends out all the letters to anybody who owns a property

00:06:28.500 let's just take let's just take a really rich fat cat you know somebody that we can all hate right

00:06:33.380 guy who owns an apartment on central park south that apartment is worth 28 million dollars he

00:06:40.380 lives now in palm beach now under the new schedule he owes 1.3 percent per year that's 364

00:06:50.100 thousand dollars he'll never miss it well that's on top of the property tax he already pays every

00:06:58.000 year forever and he sleeps there about 20 nights a year you know for fall board meetings maybe he

00:07:05.280 goes up for christmas time whatever that works out now believe me people like this do the math

00:07:11.720 in their head and they don't need a calculator they can do it quickly that works out just an

00:07:16.780 increase to $18,000 a night. Now there's some really sweet apartments, uh, in New York.

00:07:25.620 Uh, but there are, you know, there's the four seasons. You can stay at the top of the top in

00:07:31.280 the four seasons and you ain't paying $18,000 a night, or maybe you are, but you'll pay it.

00:07:38.040 It's the four seasons. So what does this guy do? He's like $18,000 a night, extra, extra,

00:07:44.680 extra. I don't have to pay any fees or anything else if I'm just going to a hotel,

00:07:49.280 if I even want to come back here. So he calls his broker in the morning, and he isn't alone.

00:07:55.460 Across 11,000 addresses, some fraction of that runs the same mathematics through their head

00:08:01.480 and reaches the same exact conclusion. This isn't worth it for me. So the listings rise in the

00:08:07.880 segment above $5 million. Okay, so now what's the next step? Well, now you have to find a buyer.

00:08:13.760 and the buyer is running the arithmetic too.

00:08:17.160 He runs it forward.

00:08:18.820 A permanent annual charge attached to an asset

00:08:21.980 gets subtracted from what that asset is worth.

00:08:25.140 That's not my ideology.

00:08:27.040 That's how income producing

00:08:28.740 or cost carrying assets get priced, okay?

00:08:32.340 So you take the recurring 1.3% and you capitalize it

00:08:36.980 and you knock something off the top

00:08:39.460 and then the order of about one fifth of the value

00:08:42.980 You have the thing being taxed, okay?

00:08:44.540 You following?

00:08:45.380 Because what we're doing on the chalkboard,

00:08:46.860 it just says, think it through.

00:08:49.380 Tax the rich, $28 million on an apartment in Central Park.

00:08:53.440 Add $364,000 on top of the tax he already pays.

00:08:57.740 He thinks it through, $18,000 per night.

00:09:00.880 He sells, so do others.

00:09:03.480 The buyer then thinks it through.

00:09:06.440 He adds the $364,000, the $18,000 per night.

00:09:11.860 he offers one-fifth less and you know what the buyer looks at the buyer looks at the seller looks

00:09:20.480 at that and says hmm normally let me think about it no now he says if i think about it another night

00:09:28.980 it's going to cost me eighteen thousand dollars plus everything else i'm already paying on this 0.86

00:09:32.860 stupid place i don't need the night to think it over sold that closing now becomes a comp 0.97

00:09:39.400 A comp becomes an appraisal. 1.00

00:09:42.020 The appraisal becomes the number the bank uses on the next building,

00:09:47.540 including for owners the tax never touched.

00:09:52.560 This is where it gets interesting, Mom Donnie,

00:09:55.360 because now let's think it through.

00:09:56.860 We had the buyer, the rich guy.

00:10:00.580 He's like, I'm out.

00:10:02.100 So he sells it.

00:10:03.360 The buyer comes in.

00:10:04.460 He's smart.

00:10:05.080 He takes a fifth off of the price.

00:10:06.720 that now becomes a comp because that's the way the bank works.

00:10:12.940 Now let's take it to the developer.

00:10:15.080 You know, the guy who has already gone to the bank to be able to get money

00:10:19.360 to be able to build another giant apartment building.

00:10:23.200 Now, there's a site in Long Island City, a hole already dug.

00:10:27.700 The pro forma works because the top four floors will sell at a premium

00:10:31.800 that carry the below-market units and the affordable set-asides underneath them.

00:10:38.580 Just the top four floors get repriced.

00:10:42.820 Well, when you've repriced the top four floors, now the pro forma doesn't clear.

00:10:47.520 Now the bank is like, yeah, I can't loan you that money.

00:10:50.400 So the construction lender looks at the appraisal, looks at the declines,

00:10:55.180 and is like, yeah, I'm not going to fund this anymore.

00:10:57.420 So the project stops.

00:10:58.660 So now in the city, there's a giant unfinished hole.

00:11:04.840 Now let's count who's standing in that hole.

00:11:07.720 The excavation crew, the concrete super, the iron workers, the crane operator, the electricians, the sheet metal, the plumber, the elevator mechanics, the fireproofers, the glazers.

00:11:20.500 several hundred trade jobs across three years,

00:11:24.120 and in trades, the pension is credited by the hour.

00:11:29.160 So a man who doesn't work doesn't accrue a pension.

00:11:32.900 He doesn't just lose the paycheck, he loses the year.

00:11:37.260 Now, let's look at who was going to buy those.

00:11:40.580 All of the affordable units in that building,

00:11:43.280 you know, the ones set aside.

00:11:46.860 These were set aside for people making $60,000.

00:11:50.500 Those apartments do not become more expensive.

00:11:54.360 Those apartments become non-existent.

00:11:57.140 So the supply doesn't get built.

00:12:00.100 So the shortage widens and the rent goes up.

00:12:05.380 The policy sold to lower rents removed housing from the pipeline

00:12:10.960 because of the little letter that he's so proud he sent out today.

00:12:15.720 Back to the broker.

00:12:16.780 A $28 million sale generates roughly a million dollars, million, million and a half, in commission, split between two firms and their agents.

00:12:27.800 Now, behind that agent, there's an assistant, there's a photographer, there's the stager, there's the closing attorney, the title company, the moving crew, the guys who refinish the floors between the owners.

00:12:40.100 Volume in that segment falls because nobody's buying.

00:12:45.900 Each of those people get a thinner year.

00:12:49.020 Now, here's the part City Hall doesn't put into their press release or their tweet.

00:12:53.900 That sale would have also generated something on the order of $2 million in a one-time mansion and transfer tax at the closing table.

00:13:02.960 Money the city and state collect only when the transaction happens.

00:13:07.600 You slow the transactions and you lose that money.

00:13:12.040 The new recurring tax eats a piece of the existing transactional tasks on its way in.

00:13:19.140 So let's say the apartment finally sells at a discount to a family that will live in it full time.

00:13:25.680 Good outcome by the city's own logic.

00:13:27.940 They're here full time.

00:13:29.400 Yeah, but watch the ledger because the pied-à-terre revenue from that unit now is zero.

00:13:37.340 Wait a minute, you were using that tax to build libraries

00:13:39.820 so kids could do what all kids love to do today, go and read a book.

00:13:44.700 So you lose that tax because they're now living in it full time.

00:13:49.140 You have the assessed value, which is lower,

00:13:51.720 so the ordinary property tax on it falls as well.

00:13:55.720 The city taxed a unit straight out of its own tax base and calls it a win.

00:14:01.500 This is socialism.

00:14:03.460 And by the way, none of this is a projection.

00:14:05.120 we ran this experiment 35 years ago 1990 congress put a 10 luxury tax on boats over a hundred

00:14:13.280 thousand dollars along with planes and furs and jewelry the rich will finally pay their fair share

00:14:18.920 the joint committee on taxation projected 31 million dollars just in the first year

00:14:24.940 yeah well when the gao went back and counted the boat portion had produced 7.3 million

00:14:33.220 Viking Yachts in New Jersey employed 1,400 people.

00:14:39.320 Within eight months, 81% of them lost their job.

00:14:44.340 By the time the tax was repealed, Viking was down 68 employees.

00:14:50.420 Egg Harbor Yacht, one of the oldest yards in South Jersey, went bankrupt and 250 people were out.

00:14:57.280 The Congressional Joint Economic Committee counted 7,600 jobs gone in boating, 1,470 in aircraft, and 330 in jewelry manufacturing.

00:15:12.140 Why? Because the wealthy didn't go without boats.

00:15:15.820 They bought them in Italy, and they bought them in the Bahamas.

00:15:18.960 You see, the men who build boats in New Jersey, they went without jobs.

00:15:25.280 the rich didn't go without boats. Congress finally repealed this in 1993, two and a half years.

00:15:34.180 That's how long it took Washington to learn what a laminator in New Gretna could have told them

00:15:40.020 at the hearing that they never, ever held. Now, come back to New York. Collections come in under

00:15:46.940 projection. They always do. 11,000 owners, a 30-day appeal window, and a tax appeals office

00:15:55.160 that just had 11 positions to handle it.

00:15:57.900 Expect a backlog.

00:15:59.120 Expect settlements below assessment. 0.97

00:16:01.240 Expect conversions to primary residents,

00:16:04.400 LLC restructurings,

00:16:06.080 and a constitutional challenge

00:16:07.580 that ties up a slice of the money for two years.

00:16:10.460 Meanwhile, the gap is unchanged.

00:16:13.060 It was $5.4 billion.

00:16:15.800 The best case covered 9% of it,

00:16:19.620 but the best case is not what arrives.

00:16:22.320 So the next envelope gets addressed.

00:16:25.160 nine and a half percent across the board.

00:16:28.120 That letter goes to the two-family house in Bay Ridge

00:16:32.080 where the owner rents the top floor to make his own mortgage.

00:16:35.380 Or to the Brownstone, a family bought in 1971,

00:16:39.420 has never borrowed against it.

00:16:41.000 Or to the retired school teacher in Riverdale,

00:16:43.860 the co-op living on a fixed pension,

00:16:46.880 whose maintenance goes up

00:16:48.440 because the building's tax bill just went up.

00:16:51.620 And in the rent-stabilized buildings,

00:16:53.300 the owner can't raise the rent to cover it so the rent guidelines board sets that sets that number

00:16:58.920 not him so the money comes out of you know the only item he controls and that's the boiler is

00:17:04.480 not going to get replaced this year then the roof waits then the building itself starts to wait

00:17:08.540 new york has watched the end of this movie already and it wasn't long ago in 1975 buildings were

00:17:14.820 being abandoned in the city at the rate of over 3 000 units a month 40 000 units a year

00:17:23.740 City Hall's working theory was that landlords are going to pay.

00:17:27.720 They're going to pay their fair share.

00:17:29.520 They're withholding.

00:17:30.540 They're milking the buildings on their way out.

00:17:32.760 That's what's happening.

00:17:33.480 So in 1976, the city shortened the tax delinquency clock from three years to one to catch them at it.

00:17:40.740 Well, their theory, surprise, surprise, was wrong.

00:17:43.880 Most of the owners weren't hoarding.

00:17:45.820 They were broke.

00:17:47.180 So the city said, fine, we'll just take the buildings.

00:17:50.960 By 1981, it held nearly 112,000 units, making the Department of Housing, Preservation, and Development the second largest landlord in the five bureaus.

00:18:04.100 Seven census tracts in the Bronx lost more than 97% of their buildings to fire and abandonment.

00:18:12.740 On one block of West 140th Street, landlords walked away from 22 of 36 buildings.

00:18:18.740 so the city sets out to punish the landlord and it becomes the landlord and you know what kind 0.95

00:18:24.140 of landlord the city is one that sucks more than the one they were saying sucks so much 0.89

00:18:29.080 this story has happened over and over again when will people understand socialist math 0.97

00:18:38.660 doesn't work.

00:18:41.400 The only one it actually hurts

00:18:43.880 is the worker.

00:18:46.680 The one they say they're for.

00:18:49.340 They are not.

00:18:50.780 They are not for the worker.

00:18:56.180 All you have to do

00:18:57.680 is simple mathematics.

00:19:01.480 More in a minute.

00:19:02.400 Let me tell you about our sponsor

00:19:03.760 this half hour.

00:19:05.000 Our sponsor is

00:19:06.700 the International Fellowship

00:19:07.640 of Christians and Jews.

00:19:09.280 The word compassion can sound kind of passive.

00:19:12.160 People sometimes feel, you know, the way they feel about thoughts and prayers.

00:19:15.620 I've got compassion, thoughts and prayers, whatever.

00:19:18.220 But like thoughts and prayers, compassion does mean something.

00:19:22.000 It includes action.

00:19:23.900 It's the feeding of the person who is hungry.

00:19:25.760 It's the helping out the elderly person who still feels alone.

00:19:28.480 It's the work of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.

00:19:31.240 And they provide food for the hungry and care for the elderly and help children and stand with some of Israel's most vulnerable people.

00:19:36.720 at a time of very real threats.

00:19:42.860 I'm just going to say it.

00:19:44.220 Some of which, some of the biggest of which

00:19:46.740 are now starting to come from New York City.

00:19:49.960 The IFCJ gives ordinary people a way to make sure

00:19:52.740 those families don't become another distant story

00:19:55.120 and then disappear.

00:19:57.440 Your prayers and your donations tell them

00:19:59.500 they haven't been forgotten.

00:20:00.940 People of faith are still paying attention,

00:20:03.060 still standing with them, and still willing to act.

00:20:07.900 It's what you choose to do next.

00:20:26.200 10 seconds, Station ID.

00:20:35.080 Oh, Ricky, do we happen to have the audio I played yesterday from Jon Stewart?

00:20:54.020 Because I said yesterday, I got nothing out of that.

00:20:56.940 And I went back and I watched the whole video yesterday.

00:20:59.740 I'm like, oh, no, I got a lot out of that.

00:21:02.060 and then we have the other video where um he's just saying you have this is yesterday's video

00:21:09.160 go ahead and play yesterday's video first if someone says we're going to abolish all prisons

00:21:14.940 and borders like i do go i don't think that's a good idea like it's it feels like order and

00:21:19.940 security is also a progressive value why shouldn't people in neighborhoods with less resources have

00:21:25.920 the same safety and security

00:21:27.980 that neighborhoods with lots of resources.

00:21:30.480 So are there tenets of those

00:21:33.080 that are kind of following in the wake

00:21:35.420 of Zoran Mamdani's success

00:21:38.020 that you're not comfortable with

00:21:39.940 or that give you pause?

00:21:42.240 If you have more than one socialist in a room

00:21:44.680 and there isn't disagreement,

00:21:46.020 then you don't have more than one socialist in a room.

00:21:50.100 So, but you're comfortable

00:21:51.420 with those kinds of discussions.

00:21:53.660 Well, I'm comfortable with disagreement.

00:21:55.320 And I'm comfortable with disagreement that doesn't end a conversation in time.

00:21:59.900 Notice, stop.

00:22:00.780 Notice Jon Stewart didn't get his answer to his question.

00:22:06.560 There's no answer there.

00:22:07.920 There's no answer there.

00:22:08.980 That's not the question I asked you, Mr. Mondani.

00:22:12.580 Now, play the latest cut that we brought in for today because I've got a lot to say about Mondani.

00:22:19.160 More than just let's do the math.

00:22:19.460 If you go back to some of the Democrats that we most admire, FDR, LaGuardia.

00:22:25.320 you will see a lot of democratic socialist principles

00:22:28.220 in their vision.

00:22:29.520 And if you think about a lot of what we've come to accept

00:22:32.100 as just the facts of life across our country,

00:22:35.480 a lot of it is also still driven

00:22:37.100 by democratic socialist principles.

00:22:38.980 Now, if today you and I were to introduce the idea

00:22:42.140 of a building that lends out books for free,

00:22:46.280 we would be slandered in the same way

00:22:47.880 that so many new ideas are slandered today.

00:22:49.720 And yet that's the library.

00:22:50.960 And the same thing with the fire department,

00:22:52.440 the same thing with public schools.

00:22:53.620 And it's to say that a lot of politics has been a debate about who deserves what, and I would prefer a politics that debates how we can deliver that to everyone. 0.89

00:23:07.060 Except for the rich, or perhaps the Jew. 0.95

00:23:10.200 I'm sorry, he wants to stop having the conversation of who gets what, and yet he gleefully sends out a note. 1.00

00:23:19.400 By the way, if you're rich, look in your mailbox because I just said you've got mail.

00:23:27.200 Really? Really.

00:23:29.800 And libraries are socialists.

00:23:33.260 Now, I heard this earlier from another Democratic socialist saying it, I think on CNN,

00:23:37.960 that firemen are socialists.

00:23:41.300 No, no, they're really not.

00:23:44.560 And I'm going to dumb this one down, too.

00:23:47.500 I'm going to teach you, I taught you arithmetic, next, a little history from Mom Johnny.

00:23:54.460 Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.

00:23:57.500 Maybe you're being a little too sarcastic today.

00:24:00.380 Autopay can make a company invisible to you.

00:24:02.820 The bill shows up, the money's gone, and you may have never stopped to ask what kind of company you're funding every single month.

00:24:08.600 Then one day you'll find out you've been funding something awful for years.

00:24:13.200 Look, you're going to pay for your cell phone service anyway. 0.50

00:24:16.220 Patriot Mobile gives you a chance to send that payment to America's only Christian conservative wireless provider.

00:24:21.760 They've donated millions of dollars to support the causes of faith and family and freedom.

00:24:26.680 And this isn't a choice between your values and dependable service.

00:24:30.820 Patriot Mobile offers the dependable nationwide coverage on all three major networks.

00:24:36.240 You're going to get the same service, but you're going to be sending your money to people who are actually spending their money and spending their time fighting with you instead of against them.

00:24:45.720 And you know what? The three big mobile companies, they all know. They look at you like a sucker. They think, well, it's so hard to switch. Nobody's ever going to switch. And most times, most people don't. Stop being a sucker. Get out of that business. Call 972-PATRIOT and switch today. PatriotMobile.com slash Beck.

00:25:15.720 This is amazing.

00:25:32.360 Just got this notification.

00:25:33.860 The Swedes have just sent out a notification

00:25:36.320 and issued a statement that John Thune

00:25:40.560 has just been nominated for a no-ball prize.

00:25:43.740 and um i think he's why is ricky shaking her head on that i don't you've heard of the no ball prize

00:25:53.980 right i love a pun as much as anyone glenn and a dad joke for that matter

00:26:00.260 i am making a no ball prize for him i'm going to make one for him uh all right uh let's see okay

00:26:10.480 so there's three things there's three topics that i've got i just have to get it off my chest

00:26:14.560 because they're so simple to set straight uh and they're all about mom donnie today first one

00:26:20.100 is uh hey the glee he sent this letter out this is not about building libraries this is about

00:26:26.860 punishing people in a class hey i just if you own a building or you own a apartment

00:26:33.300 or a house worth more than $5 million, you've got mail.

00:26:40.280 He's, I can only think of swear words, and I'm sorry.

00:26:45.280 He's not a good guy.

00:26:46.940 This is about punishing people.

00:26:48.780 It's not about helping people.

00:26:50.100 It's about punishing people. 0.96

00:26:51.560 And then he's a liar on top of it.

00:26:54.480 So I just played the audio of him on socialism that, you know,

00:26:58.040 you know fire departments they're you know that's just that's a socialist idea oh no it's not no 0.99

00:27:06.000 it's not and John Stewart you're pathetic you're pathetic you allow him to explain socialism to 0.99

00:27:14.540 America and then he he actually comes out and says yeah well you know you know building a building 0.99

00:27:24.080 and lending out books for free,

00:27:26.340 if we just suggested that today,

00:27:28.540 it would be slandered.

00:27:29.640 And yet that's the library.

00:27:32.500 Okay.

00:27:32.820 Same thing with public schools

00:27:34.340 and roads and everything else.

00:27:36.280 And Stuart's not,

00:27:37.140 yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:27:41.480 Nobody at the table

00:27:42.600 asks the only question that matters.

00:27:44.740 Who owns the steel mill?

00:27:48.560 You know, socialism is not a mood.

00:27:50.660 It's not kindness with a budget line.

00:27:52.920 It's a specific claim about who owns the means of production, the factories, the land, the housing, the capital.

00:28:01.640 The definition isn't mine.

00:28:03.780 It belongs to the Democratic Socialists of America who have just defined it.

00:28:09.940 And the mayor knows it because when Stewart made a joke about nationalizing industry,

00:28:14.560 the mayor joked right back that he'd come and seize the means of production of Stewart's podcast.

00:28:19.460 You can't even make a joke out of a definition you don't know.

00:28:22.920 so let me take you to the fire department is the fire department a sign of socialism

00:28:33.200 well let me take you back in the century before christ i'm pretty sure socialism

00:28:42.280 carl marx was still a little boy in the century before christ

00:28:48.860 the richest man in rome was marcus crassius rome was wood packed tight burning constantly and there

00:28:59.320 was no fire department so crassius built one because he was the richest guy there 500 men

00:29:04.100 he trained them fast first on the scene and when they arrive they did nothing because crassius was

00:29:10.300 also like his name crassius he's a bad guy okay so he would go the fire department would show up

00:29:18.220 And he would show up, and they'd say to the owner of the burning building, hey, we'll buy this.

00:29:23.800 It's not for sale.

00:29:24.640 I'm trying to put it out.

00:29:25.540 Okay, well, come back.

00:29:27.120 We'll come back in another five minutes as it's burning down.

00:29:29.940 But the price will be lower.

00:29:31.340 And so people, the longer they hesitated, the lower the price became.

00:29:34.800 And so people were just like, okay, all right, fine, I'll sell it to you.

00:29:38.060 He'd make the same offer to the neighbors whose houses weren't on fire yet.

00:29:42.420 Then his men would put it all out, and he'd rent you back your own house.

00:29:46.240 that's a criminal that's a bad guy okay this is why he this is why he owned the largest part of

00:29:54.760 rome um for a long time because he would do this that is that's the free market being applied to

00:30:02.380 a burning building in the most corrupt way it's also why nobody has tried it again so let me take

00:30:10.700 you to the year six. Jesus was six years old now, and the fire tore through the city again

00:30:20.520 in Rome. Caesar Augustus was there. And he went to the watchmen of the city, 7,000 men

00:30:27.580 in seven what were called cohorts, each cohort responsible for two districts.

00:30:33.340 The first permanent public fire brigade in the history of the world was formed.

00:30:38.640 He was the emperor. 0.88

00:30:39.660 He ruled by slaves.

00:30:40.820 He ruled by force, calling himself the first citizen, quietly burying the republic.

00:30:47.020 You know, whatever he was, and he was not a good guy.

00:30:48.900 He wasn't a socialist.

00:30:50.320 He beat Karl Marx to the fire department by 18 centuries.

00:30:54.840 Check your stopwatch.

00:30:57.080 All right.

00:30:57.340 Now let me take you December 7th, 1736, Philadelphia.

00:31:02.140 Benjamin Franklin.

00:31:03.640 He's 30 years old.

00:31:04.680 he gets a couple dozen men to sign articles of agreement every man brings six leather buckets

00:31:10.760 and two linen bags they meet monthly and when a member misses a meeting he pays a fine and the

00:31:17.300 fines bought fire engines that was the union fire company it's the first volunteer fire company in

00:31:24.820 america we still have volunteer fire departments why because of benjamin franklin not carl marx

00:31:33.940 The government had nothing to do with it.

00:31:35.920 Not a program.

00:31:36.820 It was neighbors, and nobody was compelled to do it.

00:31:39.620 Five years before that, Franklin did the same thing with books.

00:31:43.160 Fifty men put up 40 shillings apiece and 10 shillings a year, and that was the library company of Philadelphia.

00:31:49.660 By the way, you know whose books are in the Library of Congress until they burned it down?

00:31:55.440 Thomas Jefferson.

00:31:57.400 That's who started the Library of Congress.

00:32:03.200 okay okay the american answer to all of these things has always been share the problem in

00:32:14.660 association not theft de toqueville came here in 1831 he couldn't stop writing about it where a

00:32:22.220 frenchman would petition the ministry and the englishman would find the lord the american would

00:32:27.720 find nine other Americans and start doing something to change the world. Then April 9th,

00:32:33.800 1833, Petersburg, New Hampshire, town meeting, Unitarian minister, I think his name was Abbott,

00:32:42.100 Abel Abbott, and he rises up and proposes that a portion of the state literary fund be spent on

00:32:51.320 books. A library free to everyone living in the town. The town votes yes. They buy a hundred books

00:32:57.840 and set them in Smith and Thompson's general store. It was right next to the post office.

00:33:03.160 That's the first free tax-supported public library in the nation, 15 years before Marx and Engels

00:33:09.680 published the Communist Manifesto. Where did the money come from? The state literary fund.

00:33:15.060 how was that paid for by capital stock tax on banks the first free public library in the world

00:33:22.100 was paid for out of the profits of capitalism voted by the very people who'd be taxed in a room

00:33:28.300 where they could look each other in the eye and uh you know say i'm not going to do this anymore

00:33:34.740 you know if they didn't like how it turned out it was revocable then andrew carnegie

00:33:38.920 steel you know the robber baron most successful capitalist of his age he spent his foundation

00:33:47.680 on 56 million dollars putting up 2 509 library buildings 100 1 689 of them in the united states

00:33:58.800 nearly half of all of the libraries in america by the time the last grant was made and he attached

00:34:05.000 one condition the town had to own the site and the community had to pledge by resolution of its

00:34:11.440 council an annual tax levy equal to 10 of his gift to keep the doors open free books free building

00:34:19.660 on condition that a free people would vote every year to maintain them i mean

00:34:26.340 where do you get this socialist idea where do you get it you think there's no there's nobody

00:34:34.600 that's willing to stand up and be Andrew Carnegie anymore?

00:34:37.780 Of course, there's an Andrew Carnegie.

00:34:40.200 Andrew Carnegie's everywhere.

00:34:41.540 You think that the people won't work together?

00:34:43.900 Of course they will.

00:34:45.280 You're forcing them in socialism.

00:34:48.000 You're forcing them.

00:34:49.760 And by the way, the library is not socialist

00:34:52.700 unless you own the means of all of the production.

00:34:56.780 You own the bricklaying company.

00:34:59.500 You own the bricklaying, you know,

00:35:01.420 or the brick making company.

00:35:04.600 You own the steel mill.

00:35:06.380 You own all of that.

00:35:07.460 That's socialism.

00:35:09.080 That's communism.

00:35:12.200 Oh, gosh, I can't.

00:35:14.100 By the way, let me give you one more.

00:35:15.640 Let me give you one more.

00:35:17.380 You want to know where the fire department sits in the theory of capitalism?

00:35:21.840 Look in the founding document of capitalism, The Wealth of Nations, written in 1776, book two, chapter two.

00:35:31.540 Adam Smith is arguing for banking regulation.

00:35:34.600 He knows the objection is coming that it restrains liberty, so he answers it in a single line.

00:35:41.440 The obligation to build party walls to keep fire from spreading is a violation of natural liberty of exactly the same kind.

00:35:50.680 so he's saying us building walls and stopping fires from spreading in our own towns

00:36:00.760 is proof that we need to do this with capitalism fire safety was smith's proof

00:36:10.600 the father of free markets reach for the firewall between your house and your neighbors as

00:36:17.840 the plain obvious nobody argues with this example in order to justify something harder

00:36:24.200 that's how uncontroversial it already was in 1776 so the department of fire department is not

00:36:31.460 socialism it's literally in the book of capitalism so either the mayor doesn't know the definition

00:36:39.960 of the word he uses to describe himself which would be disqualifying all by itself or he knows

00:36:46.260 exactly what it means and he reaches for the library on purpose the podcast joke settles it

00:36:53.680 he knows he knows his organization's platform abolishing prisons abolishing borders getting

00:37:02.480 rid of the senate non-citizen votes all of that a program that explicitly calls for the end of

00:37:09.160 capitalism and explicitly in their own platform voted two weeks ago an end to the u.s constitution

00:37:17.260 stewart raises the prisons and borders piece oh don't you think i mean i disagree with a lot of

00:37:24.380 that's kind of baddie don't you think and then they get into it well i like disagreement that

00:37:29.560 that's it that the mayor is comfortable with disagreement that's not the answer that's not

00:37:35.700 even an answer. That is a man declining to name which parts he would veto. You don't lead with

00:37:43.740 the library because the library is the argument. You lead with a library because the library is

00:37:48.740 the door. Americans have called things socialism that weren't social. Social security drew that

00:37:54.780 label in 1935. So did rural electrification. So did Medicare. All of it is furniture in the

00:38:02.380 american life now and nobody is proposing to haul all of it out let's get rid of the libraries haul

00:38:09.140 it out to the curb the point here is when you call everything socialism you spend the word out 0.78

00:38:17.580 it's like calling everything a racist you burn it down to nothing and then the man who belongs to

00:38:22.520 an organization that has written down that it wants to end capitalism walks onto a comedy podcast

00:38:29.100 and no alarm bell rings.

00:38:31.020 In fact, AOC came out.

00:38:32.400 Do we have this audio?

00:38:33.360 AOC came out and she said,

00:38:35.840 you know, it's really kind of funny.

00:38:37.720 I mean, this alarm bell.

00:38:39.620 You shouldn't freak out about the word socialism.

00:38:42.660 There shouldn't be any alarm bell.

00:38:43.660 There should be every alarm bell.

00:38:47.020 Every alarm bell.

00:38:49.160 And they all know it.

00:38:51.240 But they're doing exactly what they did

00:38:53.580 when they said they weren't socialists.

00:38:56.480 Remember?

00:38:57.000 oh we're not socialists we're democrats we're progressives we're not socialists look at the

00:39:03.320 look at what you're saying we're socialists now they're saying socialists 51 are self-identified

00:39:09.020 communist but they're saying socialism that's not a big deal we're just definitely not communist

00:39:14.200 even though 51 of the board of dsa is communist you can just keep playing this game if you want

00:39:22.780 But it's really time to spit yourself out of the system because we know exactly who they are. 0.99

00:39:28.000 And if you don't by now, quite honestly, you might have a mental disorder. 0.99

00:39:33.840 And I mean that sincerely. 1.00

00:39:35.020 You might have a mental disorder. 1.00

00:39:36.800 All right. 1.00

00:39:37.220 Back in just a second.

00:39:40.080 All right.

00:39:40.740 A responsible self-defense plan should not leave you with only two choices.

00:39:44.240 Do nothing or immediately use lethal force.

00:39:47.120 In a dangerous moment, you need room for judgment.

00:39:49.420 You need options.

00:39:50.240 That's why Berna Launcher is here.

00:39:51.820 It gives you an option designed to help stop a threat from a distance.

00:39:55.660 It fires powerful chemical irritant projectiles that can disorient and incapacitate an attacker from up to 60 feet away.

00:40:02.700 That distance can give you valuable time to get away, move your family to safety, and contact law enforcement.

00:40:08.360 You're not there to stand around to prove something.

00:40:10.500 You're there to survive the situation and keep the people you love safe.

00:40:14.700 Burna, legal in all 50 states, doesn't require a background check to purchase,

00:40:18.120 and more than 750,000 Berna launchers have already been sold.

00:40:22.380 Hundreds of law enforcement agencies have also added Berna products to their toolkits.

00:40:29.460 Good plan doesn't give you fewer choices.

00:40:31.200 It gives you better choices.

00:40:52.000 Hey, this weekend, we've got episode 16 of the American story that is coming out.

00:41:20.240 Sorry, it's episode 15.

00:41:22.360 It is a great story about John Brown.

00:41:26.480 If you don't know who John Brown is, you might think you even know.

00:41:30.320 You've never heard who John Brown really is until you hear episode 15 available everywhere.

00:41:34.680 Here's a clip from it.

00:41:36.300 November 7th, 1837, around 3 o'clock in the morning,

00:41:40.340 a steamboat delivers yet another replacement printing press.

00:41:44.600 Lovejoy is at the warehouse to receive it.

00:41:46.640 But, like clockwork, a pro-slavery mob quickly arrives and surrounds the warehouse.

00:41:53.560 One man climbs a ladder and tries to set the roof on fire.

00:41:57.580 Lovejoy rushes out of the warehouse with a gun and fires up at the man.

00:42:02.580 As soon as he does, multiple gunshots crack through the cold night air.

00:42:07.900 When the smoke clears, 34-year-old Elijah Lovejoy lies dead on the ground, shot five times by the mob.

00:42:17.260 Now, you go into Harper's Ferry and John Brown and his radical crusade, a guy who tried to convince everybody he was a good guy, who was a really, I think America's really first terrorist.

00:42:30.060 You have to hear this. The American Story, episode 15. It's available everywhere you get your podcast. It comes out tomorrow. You don't want to miss it. The American Story, episode 15.

00:42:39.820 one of the biggest mistakes people make in politics is thinking that the election is the

00:42:47.380 finish line and it isn't it's the starting gun the hard part comes afterward because winning an

00:42:52.420 election doesn't actually automatically fix a culture it doesn't protect your rights it's uh

00:42:58.200 what does that is people staying involved and engaged people who understand that freedom isn't

00:43:02.300 a trophy you put on the shelf it's a responsibility that you have to maintain and that's what i love

00:43:06.260 about patriot mobile yes they provide excellent wireless service on all three major networks so

00:43:11.120 you can keep your phone keep your number yeah all the features you expect from a modern carrier

00:43:15.900 but what makes them different is they understand that the fight doesn't end on election day

00:43:20.580 as america's only christian conservative wireless provider they put their business behind the causes

00:45:12.800 welcome glad you're here um i think today's show uh theme is ah let's think this one through

00:45:22.840 let's just think this through i just told you about mom donnie and his uh letter that he's

00:45:28.700 now sending out to people who own a a home in uh new york city for uh is worth more than five

00:45:36.280 million dollars if it's their second home um that he just gleefully tweeted if you own one of those

00:45:43.740 homes you check you better check your mailbox because you got mail and i said let's just think

00:45:50.500 this through let let me show you how the trickle down of socialism actually works how this is going

00:45:57.120 to impoverish everybody and laid that out simple pretty simple let's just think this through let's

00:46:04.780 do another one uh let's think through mom donnie and what his speech actually meant uh on tuesday

00:46:12.520 night when he said he was going to um arrest he couldn't arrest but he wanted to arrest the prime

00:46:18.820 minister of of israel but you know you should rise up there should be protests on the streets when he

00:46:24.740 comes oh my gosh what is he doing what is he doing well let's think it through because he's

00:46:36.080 issuing a warning and everybody needs to hear it we'll do that next first identity theft doesn't

00:47:42.440 so let's think this through on tuesday night the mayor of new york city posted a two-minute video

00:47:52.580 to say that he just can't arrest the prime minister of israel and he'd been promising

00:47:58.660 to arrest him since december of 2024 you know when he was when he was running uh you know

00:48:06.300 campaign stops and interviews. I've got one from September, 2023, where he was talking about police

00:48:13.360 violence. And he said, and I quote the boot of the New York city police department, the boots are

00:48:19.900 laced by the IDF. Now, how the hell is the IDF responsible for the New York police department

00:48:27.080 scapegoat? I mean, this is socialism. This is what's coming. So he's on the road. He's making

00:48:34.940 all kinds of claims. I'm going to arrest Benjamin Netanyahu. And then the city's lawyers told him

00:48:38.940 what any first-year law student could have told him. So he had to make a video, okay? And that

00:48:44.060 was the news in it, maybe 20 seconds worth. And then the other 100 seconds were the reason he

00:48:49.520 bothered. Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal, the architect of a horrific genocide, not welcome 0.96

00:48:55.440 in New York City. We should protest. Washington should arrest him instead. October 7th didn't 0.95

00:49:01.520 come up. So how many views so far? Over 90 million views. In a completely, completely

00:49:12.900 unrelated story, two men were stabbed in an unprovoked rampage on the Upper West Side

00:49:19.360 near Central Park on Thursday, yelling, Allah Akbar. Now they're trying to figure out if

00:49:26.820 This was actually motivated by hate.

00:49:31.800 Well, what do you think?

00:49:32.960 What do you think the police are going to do there?

00:49:35.380 Of course, they're going to say because the boots are laced by the IDF.

00:49:38.960 So, of course.

00:49:40.840 I can guarantee you they're going to say that Allah Akbar had nothing. 1.00

00:49:44.740 He was just a crazy man. 0.97

00:49:45.900 It had nothing to do with it. 0.99

00:49:46.960 I mean, he wasn't.

00:49:47.820 Nah, what are you talking about?

00:49:51.040 Okay.

00:49:52.340 All right.

00:49:53.120 Well, again, let's just think this through.

00:49:57.740 Wednesday morning, City Hall.

00:50:00.520 Mayor suggests New Yorkers go to protest Netanyahu at the United Nations.

00:50:04.500 Protest, he says. 0.58

00:50:05.580 One of the bedrocks of the city, and it is.

00:50:08.420 He also says he's committed to representing all New Yorkers, whether they agree with him or not.

00:50:13.420 And then the phone started to ring.

00:50:15.400 The UJA, the Federation of New York, an outfit that writes grants and funds food pantries

00:50:21.200 and doesn't talk this way,

00:50:23.980 opened with a statement, shame on you.

00:50:28.240 The Orthodox Union said the video endangers Jewish New Yorkers.

00:50:32.600 You think?

00:50:34.480 Gadi Azenkot, a former IDF chief of staff

00:50:37.980 who has spent his entire political career

00:50:40.160 trying to remove Benjamin Netanyahu from office.

00:50:43.300 He's not a fan, sits in opposition of him,

00:50:46.800 is trying to get him out of office.

00:50:49.500 Called Mamdani pure anti-Semitism with no basis in fact.

00:50:53.980 So when a man's fiercest domestic opponent defends him, well, you've said something.

00:51:02.700 Now, Jews are about 10% of New York City, 10%.

00:51:06.220 In the first quarter of this year, there were 55% of the confirmed hate crimes in it.

00:51:12.740 Second quarter, 57.

00:51:15.180 99 incidents out of 172.

00:51:18.920 Same city, posting the fewest murders in recorded history, the fewest shootings in recorded history, burglary down 20%. 0.71

00:51:28.840 Subway's never been safer unless you happen to be wearing a kippah. 0.59

00:51:35.280 Eight months ago, 33% of Jewish voters in the city put Mom Donnie in this chair. 0.99

00:51:44.900 Gee, have we seen this movie before? Let's think this through.

00:51:47.540 Have we seen this movie before anywhere, at any time?

00:51:51.000 It was hard.

00:51:52.540 I had to do a lot of digging.

00:51:53.680 It took me all of about two minutes.

00:51:57.060 Berlin, an attorney named Max Naaman.

00:52:00.940 He wasn't a crank.

00:52:03.280 He was a captain of the Bavarian Army.

00:52:05.400 Iron Cross, first class and second.

00:52:08.900 15 months at the front.

00:52:10.760 1921, he founded the Association of German National Jews.

00:52:14.920 and respectable people signed up,

00:52:17.460 including the chief editor

00:52:18.520 of one of Germany's largest daily newspapers.

00:52:21.640 There was serious money behind him 0.68

00:52:23.320 from established quarters of German Jews. 1.00

00:52:27.580 And his theory was simple and it was comforting, 0.91

00:52:30.300 which is why it's sold.

00:52:32.340 Anti-Semitism is not real.

00:52:34.780 It's just a reaction.

00:52:36.500 Germans were not born hating Jews. 0.74

00:52:39.060 They were reacting to things Jews did. 0.80

00:52:41.560 eastern european jews arriving with foreign manners to the zionists announcing that their

00:52:48.180 loyalty lived somewhere else to the jewish writers making sport of german patriotism

00:52:53.380 you remove the provocation and the hatred will go with it it's like you know i had a listener say

00:52:59.820 to me oh one of my first pod one of my first broadcasting in talk radio i was shocked by it

00:53:06.200 And he was trying to prove that he wasn't anti-Semitic. 0.91

00:53:10.360 And he said to me, quote, you know, I wouldn't have a problem with all these Jews if it wasn't for all these Jews. 1.00

00:53:17.120 Okay. 1.00

00:53:18.200 So that's pretty much what Max was doing in Germany. 0.99

00:53:22.180 If the Jews cause it, then Jews can stop it. 1.00

00:53:24.440 That's the appeal. 1.00

00:53:25.340 Leaves you something to do, something for Jews to do. 1.00

00:53:28.180 They can fix it. 1.00

00:53:29.220 So he went to work.

00:53:29.940 He attacked the organization that existed for the express purpose of fighting anti-Semitism and predicted its collapse.

00:53:37.480 He tried to build a rival to the German Jews' own representative body on the grounds that it had Zionists in it.

00:53:44.020 He campaigned against the international boycott of German goods.

00:53:47.840 He told a World Jewish Conference that it had no standing to speak nationally for reliable German Jews.

00:53:56.780 Jews elsewhere don't speak for us.

00:53:59.040 Not a new sentence.

00:53:59.940 His association published a manifesto saying Jews in Germany were being treated fairly.

00:54:07.260 He told foreign reporters that violence was temporary.

00:54:10.280 It was temporary excess and it wasn't policy.

00:54:13.740 He recruited students.

00:54:15.500 The youth wing had around about 400 members by 1932. 0.80

00:54:19.720 And it made approaches to the Hitler youth.

00:54:21.760 24-year-old Hans Joachim started his own group of nationalist Jewish students in 1933 and wrote the National Socialism is saving Germany from destruction and demanded the necessary separation of Germans from un-German Jews. 0.93

00:54:40.500 See, there are some good Jews.

00:54:42.180 so he had about 15 000 people you know in his circulation uh by 1935 in between

00:54:53.840 germany passed the nuremberg laws this was evidence that was getting worse the theory

00:55:01.240 was getting more popular on the 18th of november 1935 reinhardt heidrich signed the order dissolving

00:55:08.140 Naumann's Association for Attitudes Hostile to the State.

00:55:12.240 Now, I got to believe old Max was like, wait, what the hell, what?

00:55:16.100 The Gestapo picked him up on the same day, took him to Columbia Haas.

00:55:20.880 That was a camp in Berlin.

00:55:24.380 In the cell, he broke his own eyeglasses and then turned the pieces on himself.

00:55:30.720 They let him out after about five weeks, disbarred, 60 years old, completely unemployable. 0.75

00:55:36.200 He spent his last stretch looking to escape to Britain, a country he had spent his entire career attacking for sponsoring Zionism. 0.69

00:55:44.120 Cancer got him first, but a lot of his followers, they ended up in camps. 0.87

00:55:47.640 And they're not the kind of camps that you go to in the summertime. 0.94

00:55:51.840 Fourteen years of proving that he was the right kind of German Jew. 0.55

00:55:56.600 And the order that shut him down didn't contain a paragraph for him. 0.90

00:56:00.960 because all Jews are alike to national socialists.

00:56:09.320 In Germany, this was a fringe community that was rejected. 0.51

00:56:14.480 In New York, it's a third of the community.

00:56:20.280 Now, Naaman has one defense, and it's a real one.

00:56:23.980 No one ever told him.

00:56:25.320 There wasn't any notification.

00:56:26.500 There was no single morning when the proof arrived in the shape.

00:56:29.660 He couldn't talk his way around.

00:56:32.360 You know, he had to work it out himself from the inside.

00:56:35.120 And he got it wrong.

00:56:36.360 And by the time he knew, the Gestapo was at his door.

00:56:39.460 33%? 0.59

00:56:41.380 You don't get that defense.

00:56:42.940 You don't.

00:56:43.860 Nothing was hidden before the vote.

00:56:46.080 When Mamdani on the campaign trail says,

00:56:48.640 the boot on the neck of the NYPD is being laced by the IDF,

00:56:55.360 you knew before the vote. 0.62

00:56:57.120 The record was the campaign.

00:56:59.660 And the campaign was on every front page in New York City for six straight months.

00:57:04.960 They cast the ballots 33 days after two Jews were murdered outside a synagogue in Manchester on Yom Kippur.

00:57:13.900 Six weeks before 15 people were shot dead at a Hanukkah party in Sydney.

00:57:20.220 And since then, the notification keeps arriving.

00:57:23.520 You've got mail.

00:57:25.700 And it's arriving in the mayor's own voice.

00:57:27.920 An executive order on day one rescinding the city's adoption of the internal working definition of anti-Semitism.

00:57:35.920 AIPAC described as monsters moving dark money.

00:57:39.320 And this week, the new mayor of New York used the city seal to indict the elected leader of the Jewish state.

00:57:49.900 Oh, and left out October 7th.

00:57:53.400 You know, you don't have to think this one through.

00:57:56.740 There's nothing to work out anymore.

00:57:59.520 One ask, and it's small.

00:58:02.320 It's really small.

00:58:03.700 You don't have to switch parties.

00:58:06.260 You don't have to apologize on television.

00:58:11.260 Just one person privately saying, you know what?

00:58:14.160 I was wrong.

00:58:15.440 I was wrong. 1.00

00:58:17.260 Most won't because they'll do what Naman did. 1.00

00:58:21.040 He'll find a way that, well, it's different this time. 0.98

00:58:23.680 The real lesson has nothing to do with Nazis 0.50

00:58:27.180 The real lesson here

00:58:29.660 Is when a man has an explanation 0.89

00:58:30.980 For why he's safe

00:58:32.560 He doesn't hand it over

00:58:35.040 Someone has to take it from him

00:58:37.720 There's a couple of things

00:58:42.300 That I would like to suggest

00:58:43.480 That maybe people do

00:58:44.840 While we wait

00:58:46.280 And I'll give you that

00:58:49.940 In just a couple

00:58:51.480 Actually 60 seconds

01:00:24.300 have the community security trust apparently that's thousands of trained volunteers

01:00:31.600 professional threat assessment

01:00:33.880 funded by the community,

01:00:36.160 coordinating with the police.

01:00:38.240 Nobody had that on the beach in Sydney

01:00:40.080 in December.

01:00:44.420 And I think maybe,

01:00:46.020 you know,

01:00:48.040 maybe there should be.

01:00:53.980 Also, there should be an exit

01:00:55.500 that is infrastructure

01:00:56.800 rather than a slogan.

01:00:58.780 Not because anybody has to leave,

01:01:00.060 But a door you've never checked is not a door.

01:01:06.120 The bill for all of this does not go to the Upper West Side.

01:01:09.540 It goes to the man deciding, who's riding on the number four train,

01:01:14.380 deciding whether to keep his kippah on or swap it for a baseball cap before his stop.

01:01:19.700 It goes to the kids standing outside of a school in Crown Heights who were never asked about any of this

01:01:26.460 and who will not be asked next time either.

01:01:30.060 you can dismiss this as, oh, well, it'll never happen here.

01:01:34.520 But that is the pattern that should concern you

01:01:38.340 because that is what is said at every place,

01:01:42.540 every place when people say, oh, it can't happen here.

01:01:46.340 Everybody says that and then it happens.

01:01:49.060 Don't believe me?

01:01:50.020 Let's take another example, COVID.

01:01:53.280 I was on the air saying, 1.00

01:01:54.940 there's no way we do what China is doing. 1.00

01:01:57.220 We'd never lock people in. 0.99

01:01:58.440 Americans would never put up with it we did

01:02:00.840 we did

01:02:02.300 and we were bullied into it

01:02:04.620 and very few people

01:02:06.520 very few people actually

01:02:08.640 stood against it and even

01:02:10.700 today those who were

01:02:12.560 right almost all of California

01:02:14.880 they still will

01:02:16.640 argue almost all of New York still

01:02:18.780 argue that they were right

01:02:20.080 all of the evidence is in the damage

01:02:22.840 has already been done and they'll still 0.99

01:02:24.880 tell you you were the crazy one

01:02:26.780 so it can happen here in america new york is changing and it's changing quickly and every

01:02:35.620 warning sign is there i am not anxious to see what happens when benjamin netanyahu comes to town

01:02:43.680 because i would not put it past this uh this mayor's office to be coordinating with the uber

01:02:51.700 left be coordinating with the palestinian movement and you know oh that's crazy talk

01:02:58.980 is it is it his office set up a meeting with the ambassador from iran

01:03:07.680 what does the mayor's office have to meet with the ambassador from iran for what business do

01:03:16.960 you have with a nation we're at war with and by the way nobody got fired nobody got fired he just

01:03:23.780 said i didn't know but it was a mistake i didn't know that bullcrap the buck stops here and if they

01:03:30.680 you didn't know it that's one of the biggest mistakes anyone could make i can't think of a

01:03:35.900 more fireable offense than that one but people will just accept the excuse i'm i'm warning all 0.93

01:03:45.060 of my Jewish friends, I am warning you, get out of New York. Get out of New York. There's no reason 1.00

01:03:52.200 to be there. Go someplace where this isn't happening. Get out of New York. I mean, Dave

01:04:01.000 Rubin and I were talking four years ago, maybe. We were doing a podcast. And I said, you know,

01:04:08.240 Dave, it is crazy, but I don't know when the trigger comes where you're like, I got to get

01:04:14.860 out of here. But people waited and waited and waited, and then they couldn't get out.

01:04:20.060 You know, when Germany went bad, it was too late, and then you're just, you're not getting out. 0.74

01:04:24.260 And I said, at what point are we being naive when a Jewish person or a Jewish friend is like, nah, 0.68

01:04:33.280 you know, it's not going to happen. It's going to be fine. At what point do you say,

01:04:37.160 I'm not taking the risk anymore? I got to tell you, I think I'm there in New York.

01:04:41.220 If I was Jewish, I'd be there in New York. 1.00

01:04:43.500 Get the hell out. 1.00

01:04:45.000 Get out.

01:04:46.600 Well, somebody's got to, no, no, no.

01:04:49.840 This isn't reasonable.

01:04:52.200 You can't, look at what's happening with Donald Trump in Iran.

01:04:56.660 And we all know it. 0.72

01:04:57.860 How do you negotiate with people who have a death wish?

01:05:02.280 You don't.

01:05:04.260 How do you negotiate with people who are liars about being part of a death wish?

01:05:10.920 You don't.

01:05:15.160 I can't believe that we're here, but we are.

01:05:20.100 But we are here.

01:05:22.180 Pay attention, because the landscape is changing with these democratic socialists.

01:05:27.840 Again, according to their own count, 51% of their ruling board are communists.

01:05:36.200 I would say don't dismiss them.

01:05:38.260 Dismiss them at your own peril.

01:05:40.920 all right back in a minute

01:05:44.500 all right we're going to talk um we're going to try to get the the straight scoop on what is

01:05:56.860 actually happening with the save act next first let me tell you about relief factor you're living

01:06:01.060 with pain i challenge you do something about it don't wait do it today not next month not

01:06:05.380 everything slow down not when you have time because you've been living with aches and pains

01:06:09.160 and your knees or your backs or your shoulders or your hands.

01:06:11.500 And you know time doesn't fix it.

01:06:13.400 It just teaches you how to work around it.

01:06:15.740 So instead of sitting a little differently or moving more carefully, do this.

01:06:20.540 I want you to call 1-800-RELIEF-FACTOR.

01:06:23.400 Relief Factor was created to address inflammation,

01:06:26.060 which is the cause and the root cause of the persistent pain that we have.

01:06:31.600 Now, this isn't a mask.

01:07:06.860 is the next episode of The American Story.

01:07:09.080 Listen wherever you get your podcasts,

01:07:10.820 rate, and review.

01:07:11.620 Help it climb the charts. 0.98

01:07:30.620 Bloom the ball, let's rhino. 1.00

01:07:32.540 And God balls it up. 0.99

01:07:35.280 Yeah.

01:07:36.860 Thune, the ballless rhino. 0.69

01:07:43.360 I got to tell you, he's not the only ballless one.

01:07:49.460 Larry Kudlow last night had Senator Lankford on, who's a good guy, nice guy.

01:07:54.140 But he's like, you know, you guys never take on the Democrats.

01:07:57.560 Are you kidding me?

01:07:58.960 We take on the Democrats every day.

01:08:01.440 We take on the Democrats more than you take on the Democrats.

01:08:05.020 So don't start with me on that one.

01:08:06.860 Um, and then, you know, it's their fault.

01:08:10.100 It's their fault.

01:08:10.660 No, it's your fault.

01:08:11.660 You have the numbers.

01:08:12.760 You have the numbers.

01:08:14.700 And if you don't, then Thune is a ballless rhino.

01:08:18.180 How come you guys can get everything that the, the GOP voter is against?

01:08:23.280 How come you can get that done?

01:08:25.160 But when you have 80% of the GOP behind you, somehow or another, we just don't have the

01:08:31.600 votes.

01:08:32.120 We just don't have the votes.

01:08:34.460 You know, uh, Mitch McConnell got things done. 1.00

01:08:36.440 you know how he got things done gee there's a senator up in maine that needs help with her

01:08:41.380 re-election you know who's not getting a dime the senator from maine you're not getting a dime on

01:08:47.560 your re-election unless you fold and you help us on this then we'll help you that should have been

01:08:53.120 done months ago but we got a ballless rhino who i am going to award uh the no ball prize to

01:09:01.040 I'm making one just for Thune.

01:09:04.440 Now, am I being too pessimistic?

01:09:08.340 I doubt it.

01:09:10.160 But the one person who actually would know,

01:09:13.800 who's been in that septic system,

01:09:16.820 that might know is Rachel Brevard.

01:09:19.100 And she is with us.

01:09:20.040 She is vice president of programs

01:09:22.160 for the Conservative Partnership Institute.

01:09:24.440 She's been on before saying,

01:09:26.040 don't get your hopes up.

01:09:27.340 um where are we on the safe act where are we on this whole thing is it going to pass or not rachel

01:09:34.540 well just give me pause to choke on the no ball rhino um a word that you're creating

01:09:41.040 that was made my friday thank you um so well what's fascinating about this save america debate

01:09:48.840 is that you know we have john thune out there saying well we we don't have 60 votes we've

01:09:54.760 always needed 60 votes we don't have 60 you don't now well yes we can get into the the procedural

01:10:00.580 leverage that is available to these but what the president has said is okay fine if you're not

01:10:07.540 going to physically uh impose uh exhaustion on the minor on the you know the filibustering minority

01:10:14.980 if you're not going to do all of that then fine i'm going to try to find a way to give this to

01:10:19.220 you at 51 votes and i'm going to try to do it through reconciliation no one's ever tried this

01:10:23.380 before. Donald Trump has said, I do not want this to be some sort of voluntary grant program that

01:10:28.820 you can just get out of. I want this to be, I want this to have teeth. And so he said to the House,

01:10:34.400 pass this. They did. And now he's saying to the Senate, do the same. And you have John Thune who

01:10:39.340 said, well, we don't have 60. We can't pass this. Now saying Donald Trump has given it to him at 51

01:10:44.240 votes because reconciliation passes that way. And John Thune's saying, oh, can't do that either.

01:10:48.420 So what he's doing, which is shocking in my mind, is telegraphing his own incompetence.

01:10:52.560 He has 53 Republicans, and they cannot pass at simple majority a reconciliation vehicle that may.

01:10:58.300 We don't know if it will.

01:10:59.100 We haven't run through the process yet, but he's not even willing to try to make the program as reconcilable as possible to get it through this vehicle.

01:11:07.300 So, Rachel, tell me, because this is where Thune, you're absolutely right.

01:11:12.500 He is telegraphing his own incompetence.

01:11:16.120 Do you remember when they passed the Obamacare bill?

01:11:20.280 I don't remember who it was.

01:11:21.240 he was like pro abortion i mean pro life all of these things he was like dead set against he was

01:11:26.440 a democrat dead set against it and he came out finally and he was crying and he's like okay okay

01:11:32.040 they made a deal with me and i'm gonna pass it i mean where's the strong arm here what what do you

01:11:39.920 have if you can't if you're just like well i've talked to everybody and everybody doesn't then

01:11:44.240 what use are you what use are you you can't make any deal with anyone this gets to the point of

01:11:52.260 what the senate actually is for which is to solve problems and the obamacare example is very

01:11:57.440 instructive because again what the senate provides you as an institution is the ability to leverage

01:12:03.040 the physically grueling process of deliberation and what harry reed did when he passed obamacare

01:12:08.300 people may remember it actually passed in two parts it passed one as part of a reconciliation

01:12:12.620 vehicle, a simple majority. But the second part passed, the major policy of Obamacare passed the

01:12:18.900 Senate in its traditional form, subject to a filibuster. Now, Harry Reid had 60 Democrats,

01:12:25.080 but he didn't have 60 votes. Okay? He had Lieberman, and he had Ben Nelson. He had to

01:12:30.620 chase those votes. And he had Republicans on the other side throwing every possible delay tactic

01:12:35.940 at him. And so what Harry Reid did is he didn't walk around and say, well, I just don't have 60

01:12:39.640 votes. Sorry. He used the institution. I was in D.C. when this happened. He said, we are not going

01:12:45.620 home. You want to obstruct? You want to vote? No, fine. You can do that. But you're going to do it

01:12:49.860 24-7 in the chamber, nights and weekends, and we're not leaving until it stopped. And do you

01:12:54.980 remember when that statutory part of Obamacare passed? It passed on Christmas Eve. Because he

01:13:00.860 leveraged every single opportunity he had to say, fine, you can oppose me, but you are going to

01:13:06.380 physically pay for your opposition this has been how the senate has operated for 200 years

01:13:10.540 except now under john when it cannot do anything yes so what the hell is his problem

01:13:17.540 have you figured that piece out yet what is his deal it's bigger than john thune unfortunately

01:13:24.440 and it is that the conference now has one loyalty and it's to their own comfort right what john

01:13:30.900 thune doesn't want to do is to announce to his conference by the way guys we are going to start

01:13:35.900 doing midnight quorum calls. We're going to start working Fridays, even, or Mondays during the day,

01:13:41.780 things that they never do. If John Thune announces that, his conference is going to whine. They're

01:13:46.120 going to grumble. A lot of them will just go home anyway, and it will be John Thune becomes the

01:13:50.820 enemy of his conference. They have one loyalty, and it's to their own comfort, and that is really

01:13:54.660 hamstringing the Senate because the Senate, again, for 200 years has operated in this deliberate

01:13:59.500 environment, which takes work, and this current Senate works two and a half days a week, Glenn,

01:14:05.020 Okay?

01:14:05.400 They work Monday night to Thursday at noon, and they go on recess, you know, for weeks.

01:14:10.020 They don't stay in Washington and do this work.

01:14:12.040 And what we are talking about doing, a true deliberative environment where you are dealing

01:14:15.840 with an obstructive minority like you are with the Democrats, it takes work.

01:14:19.520 And these senators simply do not want to do it.

01:14:21.420 So can John Thune as leader, right, show some, you know, small L leadership and say,

01:14:26.600 guys, you know, get in the locker room.

01:14:28.580 I'm going to give you a pep talk.

01:14:29.580 We are doing this.

01:14:30.560 Yes, he could do that, but he's chosen not to.

01:14:32.560 But the problem is bigger than John Thune, honestly.

01:14:34.900 It's the entire Republican conference outside of a few doesn't want to put in the work.

01:14:39.620 That's totally fine. 0.99

01:14:41.380 But it takes a leader to say, I don't give a flying crap. 0.99

01:14:45.420 You're staying. 0.99

01:14:46.440 You're staying. 0.96

01:14:47.340 It takes a leader who's willing to take the arrows and the slings and the bruises and say, go ahead, punch me again.

01:14:54.940 I'm not going anywhere.

01:14:56.600 It's going to end up between you and me, and I know I'm not going anywhere.

01:15:00.760 so we're doing it. That's what a leader does. John Thune has absolute, I would,

01:15:09.780 he doesn't need hormone therapy. He's already a woman. He has absolutely no balls. 1.00

01:15:16.860 Tell me why he's not doing the reconciliation thing. What is his excuse on the reconciliation 0.99

01:15:21.740 thing? Well, it's that his conference does not want to do another voterama before the midterms.

01:15:30.180 And if people are familiar with this process, it's an unlimited amendment process in the Senate.

01:15:34.340 Now, debate is limited under reconciliation, but amending is not.

01:15:37.760 So ironically, the objection to the talking filibuster is, oh my gosh, they can offer unlimited amendments.

01:15:42.760 Well, every budget resolution and every reconciliation vehicle also comes with an unlimited amendment process.

01:15:48.780 Now, what happens is that, you know, Democrats think they can offer a bunch of poison pills.

01:15:53.060 They have already done this, right?

01:15:54.680 The Senate has already been through multiple voteramas.

01:15:56.640 Because I don't personally think Democrats have any new ideas that they haven't already

01:15:59.880 forced Republicans to vote on.

01:16:01.800 But these are grueling exercises.

01:16:03.360 They go into 4 a.m., 5 a.m., they go all night, but then they're over.

01:16:08.500 The Senate simply just does not want to do that.

01:16:12.500 If you believe Thune, there's also substantive objections to the bill.

01:16:15.660 You have the farmers who are getting billions of dollars.

01:16:17.700 They want more.

01:16:18.700 You have the defense hawks who are getting billions of dollars.

01:16:20.740 They also want more.

01:16:22.740 So there's a number of those issues as well.

01:16:25.020 has said uh i would prefer to take that budget resolution coming over from the house uh carve

01:16:30.500 out uh the substance and replace it with a cr with a government funding bill um yeah

01:16:35.520 i can't take these crs anymore we have no government if you're just continuing resolution

01:16:44.380 you have no government you have it's just a giant blob of money out there and we haven't 0.87

01:16:51.240 made a single damn decision since 2008. These people are worthless. They're worth, at least 1.00

01:16:57.140 the leadership is worthless. You know, I have senators who call me and say, I can't, I don't

01:17:02.560 even know why I'm here anymore. We don't actually do anything. This is a deliberative body. We don't

01:17:07.660 do anything. Why am I wasting my time here? And I'm running out of reasons for them to stay.

01:17:12.580 I really am. No, I, it really, what you've hit on the current state of the Senate, it's,

01:17:17.460 it's an existential threat to the Senate itself, because I think you have a number of senators who

01:17:22.840 are rightly asking that question. What do I even do? It's funny, you know, I talk a lot about the

01:17:28.360 Senate to various groups in Washington, and I talk about when senators were titans, when they

01:17:32.980 moved history, when senators, states, and they really, honestly, there were times where senators

01:17:38.460 were more famous than presidents, because they were more powerful than presidents in many ways.

01:17:42.040 And they wielded power with dignity and authority. And you have a Senate now that is literally run

01:17:47.320 like an adult daycare you know you you know exactly when you're going to vote you know exactly when

01:17:51.360 you're going to have lunch and you know exactly when you're going to go home and for all of the

01:17:55.400 remaining time you sit on your carpet square and and sip on your juice box and wait to be told by

01:17:59.660 the leadership what's so true that is exactly you are yeah you are exactly right senator and and the

01:18:06.620 more it be the more that it behaves that way as an institution the quality of senators are going

01:18:10.920 to go down because why would any respectable member of society want to put themselves through 0.81

01:18:14.560 that. But two, you're also at a critical point in the conference where members have never seen a

01:18:20.140 Senate that operates any differently. They don't know how to aspire to what the Senate used to be.

01:18:24.020 And so I do think we are at a very dangerous point, a tipping point for the Senate, where

01:18:27.900 it's either going to save itself or it's going to continue into this complete irrelevance and

01:18:32.060 decline. So what's Trump's move here? What's next? Well, Trump has said in clear terms,

01:18:39.380 you're starting to see him throw hands at John Thune, which he hasn't done before.

01:18:42.980 you know and to say to him look this is unacceptable i think it's it's time it seems

01:18:49.080 as though trump is starting to realize that the senate republican conference is actually the

01:18:53.080 problem he's talked about the filibuster being the problem and the parliamentarian being the

01:18:56.700 problem and those are foils uh those are proxies for what the actual problem is which is the

01:19:01.280 conference itself so donald trump cannot force the senate to pass legislation but he has is the

01:19:07.280 leader of the republican party and he has a lot of power at his disposal so i think he can try to

01:19:12.000 make life painful for these senators in a way that he really hasn't i hope he doesn't have to

01:19:16.040 to do that i hope the republicans continue to submit terms but you have a situation now where

01:19:21.800 the senate has given its members nothing to run on right donald trump is trying to help them

01:19:26.420 save them from themselves and say just give the voters something to show up for nobody remembers

01:19:31.480 what you've done they remember what you're doing so you know i think you're going to start to see

01:19:36.300 more pressure from this white house against the senate than i think you've seen before

01:19:38.940 and it's over.

01:19:40.160 Well, but what they're going to say,

01:19:41.460 what they're going to say

01:19:42.160 when they get home is,

01:19:42.960 I'm on your side.

01:19:44.080 I'm on your side.

01:19:45.020 We just need this election.

01:19:46.940 If we can just get a few more,

01:19:49.020 then we'll have the power to do it.

01:19:50.560 I'm so sick of that excuse

01:19:51.740 and I don't think it's going to,

01:19:52.880 I don't think it's going to,

01:19:54.560 you know, be bought by anybody in America.

01:19:57.180 I really think GOP voters

01:20:01.000 have shown their,

01:20:02.460 they've tipped their hand.

01:20:03.660 They've shown,

01:20:04.760 we're done with you guys.

01:20:06.000 We're done.

01:20:06.480 John Thune, good luck on your next election.

01:22:53.460 And he's currently the president of the Senate.

01:22:56.800 Um, you know, I know this is wholly inappropriate and I know I talk a lot about, you know,

01:23:07.460 trying to be a better man today. I'm just not that better man. Okay. I can admit that I'm just,

01:23:13.980 it takes a lot of work. And by the end of the week, this is why Fridays are always a little

01:23:18.780 squirrely because by the end of the week, I have spent all of my good man points. I've spent them

01:23:27.020 I mean, I'm running on vapors of be a better man by Thursday.

01:23:32.580 And by Friday, I'm completely out.

01:23:35.060 I'm like, I've got no more energy to be a better man today.

01:23:39.040 But give me a couple of days rest, and I'll be back to that guy on Monday.

01:23:44.020 I'd like to make it the whole week. 0.98

01:23:46.060 But then this kind of crap starts to happen. 0.93

01:23:48.360 By the way, have you heard what Lankford said? 0.99

01:23:50.540 Oh, my God.

01:23:51.220 Play the Lankford thing.

01:23:52.300 Do we have time?

01:23:52.880 Play a little bit of this Lankford discussion.

01:23:54.800 Senator Lankford

01:23:56.860 you don't have it

01:24:01.540 okay well we're going to have it here in just a couple of minutes

01:24:03.880 because

01:24:05.420 what Senator

01:24:07.120 what Senator Lankford said was

01:24:08.840 you guys are being so mean to us Republicans

01:24:11.480 you know why don't you

01:24:13.340 why don't you talk about the Democrats

01:24:15.440 oh Senator Lankford

01:24:17.900 I might have a

01:24:19.480 Nobel Prize for you as well today

01:24:21.160 but I think I've just got to keep

01:24:23.440 that. Only one winner per year, quite honestly, in this category. And it goes to John Thune.

01:24:29.940 But you might be nominated for it. I've got an answer on we don't take on the Democrats.

01:24:35.740 Oh, my gosh. Next.

01:24:40.880 You know, it really bothers me about modern health care. We tend to treat normal as though

01:24:46.020 it's the same thing as healthy. You tell your doctor you're tired all the time. Your energy

01:24:50.160 is down you're not thinking as clearly as you used to and what they tell you is well i'm gonna

01:24:56.600 run a few basic tests but everything comes back within range the conversation is over but you

01:25:01.780 don't feel normal you don't feel healthy that's one of the reasons i love jevity they take a

01:25:08.280 completely different approach instead of looking at a dozen basic labs they run more than a hundred

01:25:13.000 hormone inflammation metabolic health nutrient levels the things that can help explain how

01:25:18.340 you're actually feeling and may even reveal the problems years before they become a diagnosis.

01:27:02.740 yeah it's friday

01:27:08.380 a senator who I think is a very nice guy

01:27:16.980 gets on yesterday

01:27:21.780 and he's talking to Larry Kudlow

01:27:25.940 who I really like

01:27:27.200 but Larry is a recovering alcoholic like I am

01:27:31.320 and we tend to say what we're thinking

01:27:33.300 and Larry says it in a really nice way

01:27:36.500 you're bungling everything

01:27:38.100 You Republicans are bungling everything.

01:27:40.120 What are you doing?

01:27:41.100 And wait until you hear Senator Lankford's response.

01:27:45.740 You're going to weep.

01:27:46.880 You're going to be like, oh my gosh, these guys are working so hard in their three days a week.

01:27:51.420 I just don't know what to do.

01:27:53.160 You're right.

01:27:53.640 We need to do more for them.

01:27:56.020 Or maybe you'll have the exact opposite feeling.

01:27:58.740 I'm not sure.

01:27:59.640 But we get into that here in just a second on the SAVE Act.

01:28:04.380 We'll do that in 60 seconds.

01:28:05.780 First, Patriot Mobile.

01:28:06.580 If a company wants your business, it shouldn't ask you to check your values at the door.

01:28:10.860 Service matters for sure.

01:28:12.080 Price matters too.

01:28:13.000 But principles that your money supports every month, that matters too.

01:28:17.480 You have a phone plan through one of the big mobile phone companies.

01:28:20.880 You might be supporting something really dark and terrible that you don't want.

01:28:24.900 Are you for abortions?

01:28:26.340 I think it's Verizon that sends a lot of their money to plan parent to help provide abortions.

01:28:31.140 I don't want a dime of my money going there.

01:28:33.180 I don't care about my cell phone coverage being the best.

01:28:36.180 when I can give them a lot less money every month by using just buying a piece of their tower

01:28:42.880 and not their plan. I get to then support what I want to support with my money, and that is

01:28:49.500 people who are working for life. And that's what you get with Patriot Mobile. You get the world's

01:28:54.680 only Christian conservative wireless phone company. They do use the same cell towers,

01:28:58.960 so they got to use the same systems. That's why you get the same coverage, except you get it at

01:29:04.620 a better price and you're not giving them all your money it's going to patriot mobile who then

01:29:09.160 fights against all of this stuff patriot mobile.com slash back put your money where your heart is

01:29:25.060 All right, oh yeah, oh yeah, dawg, yeah.

01:29:39.740 He walks in big, talks like a king, but the room stays cold when it's time to bring.

01:29:44.620 He points at the boy, then ducks the fight, all soup, no spark, and the words all bite.

01:29:49.520 He says I got this, then shift the blame, the same old grin with the different names.

01:29:54.620 Say it loud, say it plain.

01:29:56.840 You had the chair but lost the game.

01:29:59.160 When too much pose, not enough drive.

01:30:01.740 You keep the crowd but you never arrive.

01:30:05.260 Toon the ball is Rhino.

01:30:07.360 You don't get it done.

01:30:08.720 Toon.

01:30:09.840 Wait.

01:30:10.260 Toon the ball is Rhino.

01:30:12.140 Always on the run.

01:30:13.060 Toon's a ball is Rhino.

01:30:14.720 What?

01:30:14.920 Toon the ball is Rhino.

01:30:16.920 Toon the ball is Rhino.

01:30:21.480 Ain't got balls at all. 0.97

01:30:24.100 You sell that talk like it pays the rent 0.99

01:30:27.040 But every big promise leaves the same dent

01:30:29.660 The clock moves on and your plan stays thin

01:30:32.100 You bring a weak hand when the stakes come in

01:30:34.520 You lean on the wall and call it power

01:30:37.080 But when it's go time, you shrink by the hour

01:30:39.640 Say it loud, say it plain

01:30:41.960 You had the chance, you missed the lane

01:30:44.400 All that smoke, all that drive

01:30:46.980 But when it counts, you barely survive

01:30:49.600 Through the ball, let's rhino 0.98

01:30:51.900 You don't get it done 0.83

01:30:54.220 Through the ball that's rhino 1.00

01:30:56.820 Always on the run 1.00

01:30:59.400 You make a big scene

01:31:01.780 Then fold up small

01:31:04.260 Through the ball that's rhino 0.99

01:31:06.600 Ain't got balls at all 1.00

01:31:09.540 No backbone, no bite 0.99

01:31:13.180 Operate, no fight

01:31:15.640 You can pose, you can bluff

01:31:17.400 But the job needs stealing

01:31:18.700 And you've got pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

01:31:29.680 Oh my gosh.

01:31:30.640 This is so wholly inappropriate, isn't it?

01:31:34.840 But it feels really good.

01:31:36.380 Y'all don't get it done.

01:31:39.460 Tum no ball ממ� AS reinforcement.

01:31:41.300 Oh, he's on the run

01:31:44.260 You make a big seam

01:31:45.980 And fold up small

01:31:48.700 I mean, I could put that on repeat and just play it for the rest of the show and be happy.

01:32:06.280 I would actually, in my mind, there would be a big space in my mind where I'm like,

01:32:11.040 yeah, I earned my money today.

01:32:12.660 All I did is I took that song, I put it on repeat, and I played it for three hours.

01:32:17.140 and I'd feel good about my job.

01:32:21.480 Now, I will tell you what would be really wrong, really wrong.

01:32:26.740 Because, you know, Trump asked to call Thune's office and ask politely.

01:32:32.340 And I said, you know, ask politely.

01:32:35.380 Now, here's what I do not want you to do.

01:32:39.620 I do not want anybody to go to the Torch website

01:32:42.540 where under Torch Toons you can get Thune the ballless rhino.

01:32:47.140 and play that over the phone on his message machine.

01:32:51.500 I do not want you to do that.

01:32:55.660 It would be wrong.

01:32:57.240 Imagine the people in his office going through all of the phone calls,

01:33:01.880 and it's like, beep, Thune the Ballist Rhino.

01:33:06.100 Beep, Thune the Ballist Rhino.

01:33:08.960 Beep, yes, this is Helen from Nebraska,

01:33:12.140 and I'd like you to do the save act, please.

01:33:15.140 Beep, Thune the Ballist Rhino.

01:33:17.140 That would be horrible, and I don't want that to happen.

01:33:21.640 So do not go to glenbeck.com slash torch.

01:33:26.500 Look for Torch Toons. 1.00

01:33:28.520 Get Thune the Ballless Rhino. 1.00

01:33:30.540 Call his office and put that on their machine. 0.88

01:33:33.060 Don't do it.

01:33:34.280 It would be wrong, and I'll be very upset if I hear about this.

01:33:39.140 Very upset.

01:33:42.240 Now, let me play.

01:33:44.560 Let me start with James Carville.

01:33:46.260 You know, James Carville, the guy who proves that there is alien life.

01:33:54.220 James Carville telling the Dems what they should do with voter ID.

01:34:02.280 Cut three.

01:34:03.460 We are not going to win the war against some kind of ID. 1.00

01:34:08.740 It doesn't make any sense. 1.00

01:34:10.260 It doesn't fix anything.

01:34:12.880 But maybe you just go along with it and move to the next step.

01:34:16.000 Of all the things, people, if every poll shows 75 or better, say we should have some kind of an ID to vote.

01:34:25.740 Some say, I don't know what it is, but just quit fighting and go along with it and move to the next thing.

01:34:33.820 That's James Carville.

01:34:38.620 Space alien.

01:34:41.600 Even from, I guess he's in bed.

01:34:44.580 I don't know who he's in bed with, probably some socialists, but he's in bed doing the interview from bed, the space alien, saying, just do this, people are for it, saying that to the Democrats.

01:35:01.460 but soon the baldness rhino just can't get it done now the president has given him several

01:35:10.200 different ways to do it but he just can't get it done because he just doesn't have the votes

01:35:14.980 what is your job your job is to whip the votes your job is to get it done your job is that you're

01:35:23.980 not the accountant you're not the one that's like i counted we don't have votes your job is

01:35:31.340 to get the votes your job is to make deals this is the one time that you're not doing a backroom 0.99

01:35:40.440 deal this is the one time where you're not negotiating with somebody okay the damn guy 0.98

01:35:45.740 he wants a bridge in his town named after him and it's gonna cost us a billion dollars to build 0.87

01:35:51.500 this is the one time that you're like no we're not gonna do anything like that that would just

01:35:59.480 be wrong oh my gosh now listen to larry kudlow talking to a good guy senator langford listen to

01:36:13.560 this i'm sorry you had to bear the front of that uh opening but i'm telling you right now you the

01:36:20.460 leadership in both houses are bungling everything sir i say that with all due respect and we are

01:36:27.400 personal friends it's not but you're bungling everything nothing is getting done your messaging

01:36:32.960 is non-existent you've lost your swag your swagger your riz or whatever the young people say

01:36:39.000 no one knows what the heck you're doing sir they have no idea yeah you're welcome and this is part

01:36:45.140 of the challenge we've got with all of our media friends out there that continue to be able to beat

01:36:48.600 up on Republicans and say Republicans are all the problem. Stop. Stop. What does he do?

01:36:58.040 He immediately says, you're welcome. Taking a shiv into our chest. Yeah, you're welcome. 0.88

01:37:10.080 Okay, and then his first, sorry, his first reaction is to shiv.

01:37:15.920 His second reaction is to say, that's the problem with all our media friends.

01:37:21.660 That's the problem with all our media friends.

01:37:24.120 They just won't talk about the good things we do.

01:37:26.400 Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me.

01:37:28.240 I will open up three hours.

01:37:45.980 all of the great things that are just life-changing for the average American.

01:37:52.880 Well, we did that one bill, you know, the great something, big, big-ass bill,

01:38:01.760 something that we did, we did that one.

01:38:05.320 Uh-huh.

01:38:05.960 okay we've got two hours and 58 minutes left tell me what you have done

01:38:23.680 things that you've done i'd love to talk about how you have codified things so when the next

01:38:28.900 jerk gets in he doesn't just say yeah all of those executive orders they're all gone i'd love to talk

01:38:35.680 about that you haven't done any of it because you haven't done any of it the president has had to do

01:38:44.440 all of the heavy lifting all of it you are like the friend you you are you honestly you're like me

01:38:53.520 good good friend good good friend but you call me and you're like glenn we're moving this weekend

01:38:58.820 can you come over and lift boxes? No, no, not going to be. That's who you are. That's who you

01:39:04.960 are. Okay. And everybody understands it. When it's a Saturday, you're moving your friend. You're

01:39:11.200 like, no, not going to do that. Nobody is with you on this. Nobody is with you. Oh yeah. You're

01:39:20.820 trying to save the country nah i'm busy i'm i'm working two days this week i really just don't

01:39:30.380 have the time you know i get in here on a monday night and then i have to work all day tuesday

01:39:35.840 then i have to work all day wednesday when i say work i mean you know i talk to people

01:39:41.060 you know a walk around we have lunch then we go to dinner i meet with donors so i can get re-elected

01:39:48.080 But then by Wednesday, I am wiped out.

01:39:53.020 And then I got to get onto a plane on Thursday and go home.

01:39:56.820 And I'm only home Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday.

01:40:00.900 And then I got to do it all over again starting next Tuesday.

01:40:04.440 Oh, my life is such a hell.

01:40:07.360 Nobody relates to you.

01:40:09.120 Nobody.

01:40:09.660 Nobody feels sorry for you.

01:40:11.440 Everybody is waiting.

01:40:13.320 We want to cheer you on.

01:40:15.620 you've given us zero reason and it's not because we can't see it it's because you're not doing it

01:40:24.420 now i'm sorry i got into the first two sentences which i didn't even plan on talking to my real

01:40:31.300 problem is still yet to come go ahead play the rest of this friends out there that are continuing

01:40:37.260 to be able to beat up on republicans and say republicans are all the problem but apparently

01:40:41.040 the socialist democrats in new york city they seem to be perfect because most conservative

01:40:45.940 media right now is beating up on republicans and just ignoring the socialists stop stop

01:40:52.140 stop

01:40:54.800 i

01:40:58.340 i've never believed in lizard people i think the guy might be a lizard i think he might be a lizard

01:41:07.900 That is the most reasonable explanation on how this guy is arriving.

01:41:15.240 He blinks sideways.

01:41:16.900 It's the only way he could be seeing the world this way is he's a lizard person.

01:41:21.140 What are you talking about?

01:41:22.480 No, but the socialists in New York, they're great because no, no, nobody on media and media for the conservatives are even talking about Mom Donnie.

01:41:32.540 I know when I heard him say the stuff in New York, the socialists, I'm like, what socialists in New York?

01:41:37.480 I don't even know what you're talking about. I just did an hour and a half out of a three-hour

01:41:42.300 show. I've probably done half of my monologues this week, have been on socialism. Yeah, we're

01:41:49.740 not covering that at all. We're just beating up on, you know what, you know who I haven't beaten

01:41:53.840 up on this week? Republicans. Because I really thought the hammer of Donald Trump would be a

01:42:00.440 big enough hammer that maybe you'd go, oh, screw with him. Oh, Donald Trump, please unleash, 0.93

01:42:07.060 please unleash please please an eye for an eye for a head let's let's use that metaphorically

01:42:15.960 speaking please start taking these guys on this is absolutely it's shameful it's shameful all

01:42:26.500 right go ahead so what else excuse what other excuse does he have ignoring the socialists

01:42:30.600 who are running rampant all over the country so i look back on what what happened with the

01:42:35.160 one big, beautiful bill. Look at the housing bill

01:42:37.120 we just passed. There's a lot

01:42:39.200 of things that are going on that are good, and I

01:42:41.100 understand every day. Nobody has attacked

01:42:43.020 Mondami more than I have, for heaven's

01:42:45.080 sakes. That isn't the point. I wasn't saying that just about

01:42:47.080 you. I was saying this is

01:42:49.220 the challenge that we're up against right now.

01:42:50.640 What is it that your policy is?

01:42:52.840 Senator Lankford, my friend,

01:42:55.120 what is your policy? Where are the

01:42:57.060 tax cuts? Where are the spending

01:42:59.040 cuts? Where's the waste fraud

01:43:00.940 and corruption reduction? Where

01:43:02.960 is all of that? Where is the

01:43:04.660 reconciliation bill where's the straight talk and messaging for the midterm where's the growth

01:43:10.740 messaging where's that we're going to make it better for taxpayers and working folks messaging

01:43:15.640 come on senator well he did it i mean he told you he told you the big beautiful bill that we just

01:43:25.500 passed his time collapsed is senator is senator langford okay is he going is he experiencing time

01:43:33.620 collapse where he just thinks he did that yesterday not a year and a half ago we just

01:43:40.620 passed the big beautiful that's the only thing anybody could ever quote because that's the only

01:43:46.340 thing you can only quote that come up with anything other than the big beautiful bill

01:43:52.200 you can't and how hard was it to get the big beautiful bill donald trump had to hammer all

01:43:57.700 of you on the head it wouldn't happen if donald trump hadn't done your job as well

01:44:03.240 big beautiful i'm not done yet stand by just give me i'm going to take a little sip hang on

01:44:10.840 little sip of water 60 seconds plus 10 seconds and then i'm going to finish

01:44:21.080 let me tell you about relief factor you got to live your life strategically in order to succeed

01:44:27.820 you know that you've been living with pain so you're slowing down it's the best thing you can

01:44:32.960 do strategically get out of pain of course pain isn't just physical it affects your focus your

01:44:38.840 energy your patience it changes how you move through the day how you show up at work how

01:44:43.860 maybe they're all in pain maybe that's what's happening they're all in pain maybe we should

01:44:47.800 send them all relief factor i can't do my job i'm just so riddled with pain at least i've had some 0.99

01:44:53.680 empathy for you but then i'd send you some relief factor and i'd say get your ass off the bench now 0.98

01:44:59.380 and go do your job. 0.92

01:45:01.920 I don't think they're in pain,

01:45:03.520 but you might be,

01:45:04.720 and you're dealing with their problems,

01:45:06.860 your problems, and pain.

01:45:08.740 So I don't really have a lot of room

01:45:10.820 for a lot of empathy for them.

01:45:13.480 Over 100 million people have tried Relief Factor.

01:45:15.920 Two-thirds of them gone on to take more.

01:45:17.880 If pain has become the background noise of your life,

01:45:20.680 maybe time to treat it like what it is, an obstacle.

01:45:22.760 And if you're living strategically,

01:45:24.560 don't leave obstacles in your way.

01:46:23.020 You guys, if you were in there every week 1.00

01:46:25.940 and you're like we're staying here till we're getting this done and you failed but you stayed

01:46:31.840 there for a month and you didn't go home and you were taking midnight roll calls and you were

01:46:37.620 voting and you were working hard and you didn't get it done we'd be on your side

01:46:42.540 you're not working at all larry is asking you what is your strategy well you know nobody's

01:46:50.640 taking on the socialist you know who's not taking on the socialist you by not doing by not doing

01:46:57.660 anything by not by not passing simple simple bills not not clearing the way for people to

01:47:09.080 actually get into business you know not taking on the fraud not doing just nothing but a committee

01:47:16.420 and then never, ever getting anybody to the point

01:47:20.680 to where you can have them arrested or go to jail.

01:47:23.620 You know what?

01:47:24.120 We're tired of it.

01:47:25.140 We're tired of the show

01:47:26.600 because that's all you are, is a show.

01:47:29.460 Some of us don't want a show.

01:47:31.320 We want a country.

01:47:33.620 When you decide to save the country,

01:47:37.100 let us know.

01:47:38.380 We'll be there for you.

01:47:39.920 Until then, until then, I got no time for you.

01:47:43.420 No time.

01:47:44.360 You're not my friend.

01:47:45.500 you are my representative. Do your damn job. All right. Now let me tell you about 1.00

01:47:51.340 realestateagentsitrust.com. House can be listed in an afternoon if you're ambitious,

01:47:58.060 but getting the right result is a different matter. The agent you choose shapes the price,

01:48:02.760 the timeline, the negotiation, how much stress follows you through the whole process. That's

01:48:07.580 why I started realestateagentsitrust.com. Because unlike senators in our US Senate,

01:48:14.100 not all of them, but unlike most of our senators in the U.S. Senate, these guys know how to do

01:48:20.800 their job, and they get it done, and they don't say, you know, that's the problem with you.

01:48:24.920 I listed the house. Why aren't you talking about the other people who aren't selling their houses?

01:48:31.300 Oh, gosh. These people actually do their job. You want a name of somebody who can help you

01:48:37.060 price your house right, get your house sold, sell it for the right amount of money, help you into

01:49:01.640 you're going to like them.

01:49:11.080 my aura ring just asked are you swimming no i'm talking about politics and the save act

01:49:37.840 That's what I'm doing right now.

01:49:42.940 But now I got to talk to you about this story will boggle your mind.

01:49:49.720 Will boggle your mind.

01:49:51.740 Study has come out in the geophysical research letters this week

01:49:56.540 with an explanation on why Europe is so hot.

01:50:02.980 Now, why do you think?

01:50:04.880 Why do you think?

01:50:05.460 Ricky, do you know the answer to this?

01:50:06.920 If you do, I don't want you to answer.

01:50:08.940 If you don't know the answer to this, take a guess.

01:50:11.400 What is your guess on why it's so hot?

01:50:16.220 I can't hear her now.

01:50:17.780 I don't know why.

01:50:18.700 Is she there?

01:50:19.820 Okay.

01:50:20.680 I don't know if anybody else heard her.

01:50:21.780 I couldn't hear her.

01:50:22.640 I'm guessing you said what?

01:50:24.620 Say it again.

01:50:25.240 Let me see if I can read your notes.

01:50:25.820 Something brilliant?

01:50:26.260 I said something really brilliant.

01:50:29.220 Okay.

01:50:30.140 What did you say?

01:50:31.080 What is it?

01:50:31.720 Really, what is it that you think is?

01:50:33.420 i know the answer because i get the morning brief newsletter every morning at 8 30 a.m eastern

01:50:39.100 all right but i'm not going to give it away oh okay all right all right i would guess it's global

01:50:45.680 warming right global warming why is global warming because of pollution we just aren't

01:50:52.580 doing enough for pollution here's what the study came out and said it's not the pollution

01:50:59.260 It's the lack of pollution

01:51:03.940 Europe has cut its sulfate emissions by roughly 80% over the last 30 years

01:51:13.940 Acid rain rules, low sulfur fuel standards, scrubbers on smokestacks

01:51:18.840 And all kinds of things

01:51:21.020 We were told to do it

01:51:22.920 We were strong-armed to do it

01:51:24.780 We were penalized if we didn't do it

01:51:27.500 We were called horrible human beings if we thought this isn't really what the deal is.

01:51:33.180 And one of the study authors told The Telegraph that since 1980, Europe now has warmed about one degree more than the rest of the northern hemisphere and 1.5 degrees more than the global average.

01:51:48.780 And that's most, most of that is traced back to cleaning the air.

01:51:57.500 How do I get a job where I can be that wrong, that public about it, and get a bigger budget?

01:52:12.940 I want to know. I really do. Okay? By the way, the physics in this study, 242 years old.

01:52:20.620 And you know who figured it out? A guy with a freaking magnifying glass. You know what his

01:52:25.000 name was benjamin franklin it's june 1783 there's a fissure that opens up in the icelandic highlands

01:52:34.740 and all kinds of you know toxic gas spews out of this okay spends eight months venting the largest

01:52:42.060 lava flow of the last thousand years and there's a haze that drifts across europe and they called

01:52:48.060 it a dry fog and the crops withered and livestock died and in iceland a quarter of the population

01:52:54.800 died okay ben franklin was in paris that summer he just signed the treaty of paris and he noticed

01:53:01.100 wow the sun looks wrong so he takes out a magnifying glass and he focuses the sunbeam

01:53:07.780 like you used to do probably when you were a kid you take a leaf and you focus the magnifying glass

01:53:13.520 and you set the leaf on fire okay but he found that the wheat the light was so weak it wouldn't

01:53:20.180 let me quote him, wouldn't scarce Kindle Brown paper, okay?

01:53:26.000 So in December of 1784, he writes for the Manchester Literary and Philosophical Society,

01:53:34.440 and he writes a paper, and he calls it Meteorological Imaginations and Conjectures, okay?

01:53:44.220 What's his conclusion?

01:53:46.160 His conclusion is the haze is blocking the sunlight.

01:53:49.460 The ground froze early. The snow never really melted. And that's why winter has been so brutal. Sulfur in the air cools the ground. Benjamin Franklin, 1784. No satellite, no supercomputer, just a piece of glass and a scrap of brown paper.

01:54:08.140 okay now july 1971 science magazine publishes some you know two boneheads from uh goddard

01:54:20.080 nasa goddard okay they're finding that is that quadruple the aerosols in the atmosphere and

01:54:27.200 you'll drop global surface temperature by three and a half degrees they say it's going to be

01:54:32.480 sufficient enough to trigger an ice age. So wait, they're just saying the science that we already

01:54:39.480 know from Ben Franklin, who only had a leaf at a magnifying glass. April 28, 1975, Newsweek runs

01:54:47.220 The Cooling World. Earth's climate is cooling. Food production is about to collapse. The drop

01:54:54.180 could begin quite soon. Perhaps only 10 years from now, we can be in an ice age. I grew up in this

01:55:00.260 era i remember all this crap the wheat belts of canada and the soviet union india pakistan 0.98

01:55:05.300 bangladesh they're all going to be gone we're all going to be dead we're all that it's we're all 0.96

01:55:10.320 going to be frozen to death woolly mammoths will be roving the earth again and they'll be impaling 0.99

01:55:15.700 you with their big tusks the melting ice cap it's not melting it's growing in fact it's so big what

01:55:22.420 we should do is this was an actual scientific trick take black soot and put it all sprinkle it

01:55:30.640 i don't know how many bags we need but sprinkle the black soot all over the polar ice cap because

01:55:35.980 the black would attract and hold in the heat and so we'd melt the polar ice cap good thing we didn't

01:55:41.680 do that huh that's 10 years from 1975 to 1985 in that 10 years world grain production more than

01:55:50.240 doubled. The UN's food agency has this year global cereal harvest at a record of 2.96 billion tons

01:56:00.380 and the wheel continues to turn and nobody notices. Nobody notices. March 20, 2000,

01:56:06.760 independent of London. Snow falls are just a thing of the past. We're not going to have any

01:56:12.960 more snow oh my gosh david veiner he's from the climate research whatever he says winter snow is

01:56:25.520 going to become rare and an exciting event children just aren't going to know what snow

01:56:31.380 is february 22 2004 the observer obtains a pentagon commission report major european

01:56:39.300 cities under rising seas. Britain is going to be plunged into a Siberian climate by 2020.

01:56:48.700 Nuclear conflict by 2020 over water. The threat, the paper said, vastly, vastly bigger than

01:56:55.760 terrorism. 2007, the IPCC's fourth assessment report states the Himalayan glaciers are going

01:57:02.900 to be gone by 2035. The source turned out to be a World Wildlife Fund pamphlet, which got it from

01:57:10.500 a magazine interview, which was one glaciologist speculating out loud. The panel expressed regret

01:57:20.100 when none of this stuff happened. December 2009, Copenhagen. Al Gore tells the conference there's

01:57:25.680 a 75% chance the entire North Polar ice cap will be ice-free within five to seven years.

01:57:33.700 Check your calendar.

01:57:35.240 Not happening.

01:57:37.080 The scientist that he cited said publicly he had no idea where the number came from.

01:57:42.480 He would never estimate likelihood like that.

01:57:45.480 Last September, Arctic minimum came in around 4.6 million square kilometers.

01:57:51.020 That was the 13th consecutive year without a new record low.

01:57:57.000 The record is still belonging to 2012.

01:58:00.520 And here we are, let me take one more step, 2020, when the International Maritime Organization cut the sulfur allowed in ship fuel from 3.5 to half a percent.

01:58:12.080 Sulfur dioxide from global shipping fell about 80% overnight.

01:58:16.140 researchers writing in communication earth and environment in 2024 called it what it was an

01:58:23.380 inadvertent geoengineering termination shock and estimated it could double the warming rate

01:58:30.540 of this decade compared to the rate since 1980 so we ran a planetary experiment on the entire ocean

01:58:39.980 without a hearing, without a vote,

01:58:43.800 without anyone in position of authority saying out loud

01:58:46.800 what Benjamin Franklin do in 1784.

01:58:57.380 I mean, where do we, honestly, where do we,

01:59:01.040 where do we go from here?

01:59:03.480 Where do we go from here?

01:59:10.800 It's not the science that is a scandal.

01:59:14.720 It's the arrogance that is.

01:59:18.640 We took the pollution out, and now, because we might get a 0.5 to 1 point change in the temperature,

01:59:29.260 so we take the sulfur out, we clean up the air, and now they're saying,

01:59:37.020 well, that could give us a 1 point or 1.5 increase in temperature in a decade.

01:59:48.160 Every one of these headlines came attached to a demand, to a treaty, to a tax, a mandate, a deadline,

01:59:54.000 a thing you have to give up by Tuesday.

01:59:55.840 Don't eat meat. For the love of God, just don't eat another hamburger.

02:00:00.180 Not one of them came attached to a sentence a scientist is really supposedly saying.

02:00:07.020 and this is what they should say.

02:00:09.640 This is our best estimate, and we could be wrong.

02:00:13.200 Good chance we're wrong, okay?

02:00:15.120 Franklin titled his paper, think of this,

02:00:18.560 Imaginations and Conjectures.

02:00:21.960 That's a man telling you exactly how much weight

02:00:24.480 to put in on his work.

02:00:26.860 He was right and still labeled it,

02:00:29.980 I don't know, I could be wrong, a guess.

02:00:32.220 the modern version doesn't label anything a guess it labels dissent

02:00:38.880 i mean we've been here before 1784 a man in paris holds up a piece of glass

02:00:48.620 watches the light fail to catch brown paper on fire and told the world i have an idea but i'm

02:00:55.400 probably wrong two and a half centuries later we have satellite supercomputers a hundred thousand

02:01:01.820 credentialed experts and the one word we've lost is the one that franklin put in his title

02:01:08.420 i gotta tell you there are days i would love to have a job like that i mean i would love to be

02:01:15.520 i'd have to be willing to be wrong in public twice in opposite directions and call it settled

02:01:25.040 both times and then never apologize for it

02:01:28.640 and possibly set Europe on fire.

02:01:33.600 You know, there's times I'd really like to have a job like that.

02:01:36.040 And then I think, nope, I don't have the stomach for it.

02:01:37.980 I'm not that evil.

02:01:39.460 I wouldn't have the stomach to be able to do that.

02:01:43.420 It would bother me too much.

02:01:45.820 None of these scientists are bothered by any of this stuff.

02:01:48.900 They'll just go on and say their next thing is absolutely right

02:01:53.880 and the science is settled.

02:01:55.980 Just know, none of it's settled.

02:01:57.840 None of it.

02:02:00.080 Because now they're telling us

02:02:01.560 the air is too clean over Europe.

02:02:04.620 Now it's getting super hot

02:02:06.120 because, not because of global warming,

02:02:08.560 but because we cleaned the air too much.

02:02:13.540 The arrogance of these people.

02:02:16.560 But here's the good news.

02:02:17.620 We're going to give the same people like that

02:02:19.320 artificial super intelligence

02:02:22.400 because they know what they're doing.

02:02:25.260 All right, let me tell you about

02:02:26.180 the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.

02:02:28.440 What does it actually mean to stand with Israel

02:02:30.660 in today's world?

02:02:31.840 It is easy to say the words.

02:02:33.760 It's harder to live them out

02:02:35.060 when the headlines are constant.

02:02:36.660 The threats are real.

02:02:37.960 The region around Israel is volatile. 0.80

02:02:40.440 Standing with Israel today means recognizing

02:02:42.340 that the Jews continue to live under pressure

02:02:44.340 from terror proxies, from hostile regimes,

02:02:46.840 from rising anti-Semitism all around the world

02:02:49.540 and choosing not to look away.

02:02:51.140 It doesn't mean fighting their wars or supporting their leaders.

02:02:55.080 It means loving and caring for them.

02:02:57.340 It means food for the elderly.

02:02:58.920 It means shelters for the vulnerable.

02:03:01.540 It means aid for Holocaust survivors who have seen enough hatred for one lifetime.

02:03:06.900 Now they're getting a redo.

02:03:09.120 The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, it provides tangible support, delivering emergency supplies and caring for those who are most at risk.

02:03:16.880 In a shaking world, standing with Israel.

02:03:19.140 forget it because that's misunderstood that means you stand with benjamin and yahoo it stands with

02:03:23.700 the war no i stand with the jews i stand with their right not to be hunted over and over and

02:03:31.040 over again as a group there's lots of people who are jewish or catholic or or muslim or or mormon 0.71

02:03:38.720 that i don't like we don't hunt them as a group or do we the international fellowship of christians

02:03:46.760 and Jews, praying for

02:03:48.660 peace in Jerusalem and for the soldiers and the
