  Speaker 1: It's the Elsa Kirk Show with Clay Novak serving up trending news and conservative views brought to you by the Elsa Kirk Collection and Refuge Medical.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: And now it's time for the show.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: Well, hey, there it's another week, another party in the headlines.
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: How are you?
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: I'm good.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: You and I had a little bit of a beating this week, you know, in the social media world, but that's okay, We'll talk about that.
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: That's one of our that's probably our first and biggest topic.
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: Talk about former President Biden and the cancer diagnosis.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: We got a bunch to talk about, so you're good.
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: I'm good.
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: I am good, good to go.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: OK, well, let's get started then.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Tonight Biden's cancer bombshell, cbs News and Flames, and Bernie finally admits the Democrats are the real threat to democracy.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: We've got a Mexican warship crashing into the Brooklyn Bridge, a prison break that looks like a Netflix series and a four-star admiral headed to prison.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: Oh and how about those peace talks.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: Let's dive in Woo.
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: So much to talk about.
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: You know, before we started, clay was absolutely right.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: He said just our first topic alone.
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: We could probably talk the entire hour about, right.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: I mean, this one is so many layers to this right, so many layers of thoughts on this.
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: Clay, go ahead, tell them how we got beat up, yeah.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: So you know I'll talk about how I got beat up first and then we'll talk about you.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: So well, you know Elsa for those of you that don't follow us on social media, you should.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: Elsa posted something about the diagnosis from former President Biden on his prostate cancer and there were some people chiming in and I chimed in and I said I called it that essentially that he wouldn't last more than a year after the election before he passed away.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: And that was a prediction I had made, I think, probably in around the time that he backed out of the race and handed it over to Vice President Harris.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: But I knew his health was bad.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: A lot of us knew his health was bad, but I made the prediction that he wouldn't have made it a year.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: And I got beat up for being a heartless, horrible human being, somehow, because I predicted I wasn't celebrating the fact that he's passing away folks.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: All I said was I called it because I think most of us knew, or most of us rational people knew.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: And then, of course, you, elsa, really tried to just bring light to the topic and got told that you hadn't done your research, which I thought, was interesting.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: So then she posted a great you know, listen, I'm not a doctor, you're not a doctor, 99% of us are not doctors and posted a pretty simple explanation in a cartoon format of what's going on with the president's diagnosis, and then got told again that she'd oversimplified and it wasn't detailed enough Like she's.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: You know, some medical journal responsibility level kind of stuff.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: So then you brought the receipts.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: Man, holy cow, what do you think?
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: First of like, cleaned out Wikipedia and every other source.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: You things to me.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: I have an extremely thick skin.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: You cannot hurt my feelings and you can maybe get me a little angry, but not when you come at me personally generally.
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: But there's one thing I take like tremendous pride and enjoyment in, which is research.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: I am obsessed with learning things and, because I am on social media and I put myself out there on a daily basis, there's one thing I hate more than anything and that is to be wrong.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: I don't like being wrong.
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: So in order to avoid being wrong, I will do all of the research I will spend all day.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: It's the ADHD thing, hyper-focus.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: I will spend all day.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: It's the you know, it's the ADHD thing, hyper-focus.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: I will spend all day researching something.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: So I am like backed loaded and when I don't have a hundred percent of the answers, I clarify and I make sure that I make a point of saying that you know what I mean.
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: So I cover all of my bases.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: So when someone comes in like shooting from the hip, and they're like you didn't do your research, well, you know I'm about to, I'm going to take my errands off and we're going to fight.
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: You know now it's on.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: So yes, that I was definitely um, to use a left word, I was triggered, very triggered by that.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: So, like Clay said, I brought the receipts and and explained exactly how I got this information.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: And you know, the only validation that I needed from what I posted came from oncology nurses, retired oncologists, people who have had prostate cancer, and every single one of those people said spot on, this is exactly correct.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: So, joe Schmo, sitting in his basement and his underwear in mommy's basement telling me that I don't do my research, he can kind of shove it, you know.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: And then, of course, like you said, I did, I did this.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: You know, a quick, condensed version to back up what I was saying.
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: Like this is where I got it.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: Here it is.
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: And I know and I'm not making fun of anybody I know my own attention span, I know our attention spans for things is short, so I try and make this very quick.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: It was probably under 30 seconds.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: You know, 40 seconds or so video and their slides, basically infographic slides that give the bare bones of you know this whole timeline, blah, blah, blah, that stuff.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: And, of course, like you said, that's where the you know you oversimplified this.
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I did.
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: You know, thank you for treating me as your medical professional.
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: Okay, all right, so I'm going to give you the kind of the breakdown here, in case anyone doesn't know Former President Biden.
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: He's 82.
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: He's been diagnosed with aggressive, late stage prostate cancer that is metastasized to his bones.
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: So here's what we know, or need to know, I guess, basically about the prostate cancer that is spread to the bones, that it's not curable, it's only treatable.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: So that is where he's at right now, and why this matters is because this is an early stage.
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: It likely developed years ago and the timing of the disclosure, which is post-presidency obviously, has raised a lot of red flags for a lot of people, including yours truly and I'm going to speak for you, clay, as well, you know.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: So there's a lot of questions here and to answer the question that you keep hearing, or at least I keep hearing from the left, is what does it matter anymore?
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: Let the poor man be.
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: He's, you know he's, he's sick, he's dying.
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: Basically, leave him alone.
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: It doesn't matter anymore because he's not the president.
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: Oh heck, yeah, it matters.
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: It matters a whole lot, because that opens up all of these questions, right, clay?
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: Who used the auto pen?
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: We've been used.
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: We've been asking that question now for a while.
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: Who used the auto pen?
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: We've been asking that question now for a while.
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: Are those?
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: Is anything that he did like?
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: Let me just sum it up Is anything that he did in his presidency, particularly the late years, the last years, is it valid?
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: Who was really making these decisions?
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: It's like widely admitted now that he was so infirm, he was so not with it that he was basically incapable of doing anything.
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: So I mean, that's the biggest thing right and well, and so again, you said timing, and so you know the timing of this in relation to the release of the her recordings which, if you heard those, are jarring.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: Right, you've got recordings of President Biden not remembering that his son, beau, had died.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: You've got him not remembering years, not remembering important years, years of election years and things like that.
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: They're very confused, right.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: So you've got that.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: That's evidence to his mental acuity, or lack thereof, while he was in office.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: You've also got the release.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: So that just happened.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: Then you've got now the Jake Tapper book coming out, right, original Sin, which is about the coverup of the decline of President Biden that Jake Tapper was a part of all.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: Right, as a member of the media.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: He is complicit in this.
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: It aims a lot at the media, but it also aims at the White House, the staffers, jill Biden, among others.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: You know his his you know horrific son.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: You know, and everybody included.
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: Now Tapper, by himself, has taken all kinds of crap from everybody about this.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, your girl.
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: Megan gave him a good what for your girl.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: Megan gave him a good what for?
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: Jon Stewart went after him.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: There's a whole lot of you know.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: It's like you know this is a guy from the media telling you that the media didn't give you the news they were supposed to give you a year after they gave it to you or didn't give it to you that he should have done himself Like.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: This is so convoluted, it's not even funny.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: It's a massive hypocrisy.
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: So you've got those two things, but you've also got the Democrat, the DNC, the party as a whole.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: They want president Biden to go away Every time he appears in public, every time he says something publicly.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: It is a problem that they have to deal with.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: So you've got all of this, and then the timing in relation to the last election.
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, I have said this before, I've said this a number of times had he gotten elected, he would have immediately resigned and handed the reins off to Vice President Harris Right, that was that to me, that was the plan.
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: Yes, then he could give her three and a half years as president Right Non-elected, and then have her run again and again, potentially for 15 and a half years in office, twice elected, once appointed, and I think that that was part of the plan.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: I actually thought that was going to happen early in his first term, early in the first term, not into the second term, but regardless.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: The plan stayed the same.
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: I would tell you there's including me.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: When this first came out, I question if it was even a real diagnosis.
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: Interesting yes, I've heard that.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: Actually, I've heard people say that as well.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: And I had people ask me well, what does he gain out of a fake cancer diagnosis?
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: The same thing he gains out of a real cancer diagnosis.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah distraction, Sympathy yeah sympathy distraction.
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: Immediately sequestered from the media, never has to answer a question again, ever, never, again.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: Never appears in public, never appears in the media, never has to answer for what's in Tapper's book.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: The Democrats are already saying don't hold him accountable for anything.
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: He can't be questioned.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: You know a cancer diagnosis has a lot more, I think, honorable.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: You know a lot more sympathy, empathy than a dementia diagnosis Right, which is what everybody assumes.
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: So you know people.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: You know it's that old, like you know she's got cancer right and whisper.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: Nobody wants to say it out loud, but there's a lot to be gained out of this diagnosis, real or fake, and and so yeah, it's.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: But the certainty in all of it is if it is a real diagnosis.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: This is not new news.
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: No, no, no, it's entirely not.
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: And you know, as always, Clay, I'm so stunned and amazed at the, you know, liberal, leftist minions.
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: You know the everyday people who are still, even with everything being dropped in their lap from their own people, Jake Tapper, from their own people, saying yeah, we lied, Whoops, my bad.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: They're still making excuses, justifications, you know, trying to shame anyone who dares to say, hang on a second here, Something's kind of funny.
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: You know, trying to shame anyone who dares to say, hang on a second here, Something's kind of funny, you know.
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: And they try to use their shame tactics, which are not working, by the way, left, that's done.
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: Nobody cares, Nobody cares about your feelings, your pearl clutching, your gasping, None of it Don't care.
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: And because normal people, people with fully functioning brains, know that you can actually feel compassion for someone and feel bad for what they're going through, and still expect accountability and consequences for bad, illegal, wrong behavior and actions.
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: It is as simple as that.
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: You're not getting a pass because, guess what, that that woman and I'm sorry that I don't know her name, the, the uh elderly woman or not elderly, older woman, uh, who had cancer, the J sixer was, yeah, you know, he didn't give her any sympathy.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: So I'm not an eye for an eye guy, I'm really not.
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: But let's just make a little comparison here.
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: So don't ask for too much sympathy here that it cancels out what's right and it really is as simple as that.
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: And I'm going to go back to Jake Tapper for a second.
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: He had to and I'm asking you I'm saying it like a statement, but I'm asking you he had to have known he was going to get a lot of flack for this right and he did it anyway.
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: What's the motive there?
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: I mean, is it just greed?
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: Is it that he doesn't care?
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: Is it that he's looking to change directions?
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: What do you think is going on with that?
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: So it's, it's about book sales.
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: That's all it is.
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: And really he he knows he's not he's only going to sell this book in limited numbers to conservatives, right?
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: Right, he's going to sell this.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: Now he's going to sell it in in higher numbers, right, because at the same time that he is revealing all of these secrets that all of us normal people already knew, he's also bashing the media as a whole, right?
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: So now it appeals to a different audience.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: He knows that if he sells enough copies of this book, he can walk away from CNN and it doesn't matter.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: He can go on the speaking circuit, he can do those million dollars at a college kind of thing and never have to worry about it.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: So I think it's all about book sales.
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: I don't think he really cares about you know, his reputation within the media circles and honestly I think that his he doesn't care about the hypocrisy either.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: No, clearly, right, clearly doesn't care.
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: Call me a hypocrite, buy my book.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: That's probably where he's at in his life right now and you know it is what it is.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: So he's not an ethical man, clearly.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: So for all of us to be expecting him to be concerned about public opinion or any of the rest of that stuff is a fool's errand, because he doesn't care.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: He didn't care about covering up the president, he didn't care, he doesn't care.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: So, um, all he wants you to do is buy his book.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'll.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: I'll even go so far as to give him, uh, even more diabolical credit, uh, and say that he and I don't.
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: I don't watch him, I've never listened to him.
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: I've only heard a few sound bites of his, most recently with Megyn Kelly.
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: I find him thoroughly, completely unlikable smug, arrogant, condescending, all of the things, flat out liar, obviously nothing redeeming.
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: So I will also credit him with.
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: He's probably very smart and sees the writing on the wall for mainstream media and he probably is, you know, one of those guys that is just gonna, you know, or has lit the match, tossed it and and walked away as as everything explodes behind him.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: And you know, I don't think he's alone in that.
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: I can't give you any, you know any, for instances, who else is doing that?
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: But I would say he's a perfect example of people who, you know, see that the ship is sinking and they're bailing and they're going to go in a totally different direction, right.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: He's Don Lamont.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: I mean it's you know.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: You know, lemon kind of burned all the bridges on his way out the door and he thought that he was going to make it as a, as a podcaster.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: Hey, let me tell you something folks, very few people are making money off a podcast, unless your name is Joe Rogan or Theo Vaughn.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: That's about it.
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: But you know, I think you're right.
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: That's really a great reach on this is that CNN itself, let alone the entire left-leaning media, cnn's dying, and whenever it is, the Tapper's contract with them is up.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: They may not even be able to afford to pay him what he's being paid now, so might as well use the platform while he can sell as many books as he can while he's there and then prepare himself to move on to something bigger and better in his eyes and in the meantime, just not care what people think about him.
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I think that's the case.
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: And you know, I hope he, I hope he crashes and burns the same way Don Lemon has.
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: I really do, you know, I just, I just, I just hate to see awful people succeed.
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: I really do, and I know it happens all the darn time.
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: You know people succeed, I really do, and I know it happens all the darn time.
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: You know they just reinvent themselves publicly and they're still the same slimy snake underneath the nice shiny suit.
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: But we'll see.
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: We'll see what he does.
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: Let's go back to the president real quick, president Biden.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: So you know a couple more things about this diagnosis.
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: One don't be you know, don't be surprised, or don't you know put, don't ignore the idea that this is potentially a distraction, like you said earlier, for something completely different.
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: Right, this could be the shiny object over here, while something else is going on over here by the DNC.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: Completely right, this could be an absolute distraction.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: It could be a distraction to take attention away from good things that President Trump is doing.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: It could be a distraction to take away attention from anything else really that they wanted to.
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: So it could be that.
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: And then I think the other thing is they really believe that the sympathy from this will garner a like.
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: Okay, we're just going to wash away the sins right.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: Just let everything pass, and I think that they honestly believe that if President Biden gets a pass on everything, then everybody associated with him will also get a pass.
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: They don't do an investigation out of sympathy on, let's just say, the auto pen, right?
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: Oh, clearly, president Biden, he was incapable, we can't do.
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: He gave people the code, whatever it was, we can't do.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: He gave people the code, whatever it was, we can't.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: You know, we're not gonna investigate him.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: He's dying of cancer.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: And then this 72,000 instances of using the auto pen suddenly go away.
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: Listen, nobody has to convict, even prosecute President Biden to hold people accountable, like you said, for those actions.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: So they are already campaigning to be like just let it all go.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, oh, absolutely Let it go.
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: And yeah, we'll let him go, he can go, I mean we're actually as fine as we can be with that, like life has taken care of him in the way that I'm his bitch, you know.
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean oof, I mean, yeah, his very existence, the very human that he was throughout his lifetime, which is a really garbage human.
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: And I can cite plenty of instances going back to his wife and son, wife and son, the car accident and what he did to that poor man that was responsible for the accident.
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: What he did to that man is unbelievable.
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: I'm going to leave it at that.
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: You can go research it yourself, guys, but none of it is excusable.
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: So there needs to be a kind of just because he's basically going to get off the hook, as we know he is we already, we all know this like nothing's going to happen to Joe Biden.
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: They are going to let him live out his days with ice cream on the beach.
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: You know every day, all day long, that's what he's going to be doing.
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: It is what it is.
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: But everybody else involved that the actual puppet masters, jill.
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: I would love to see Jill Biden in jail.
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: That would make me very happy.
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: I think she is an absolutely abhorrent human.
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: Even more so than we thought, I think.
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely.
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: That is a great glimpse at what money, power, greed, what it does to a person.
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: I tell you I was thinking a lot about this.
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: You always think about when you're just an average regular person.
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: You think about what the other life is like and I generally don't care.
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: But you know, you think about in that philosophical way.
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: You're like geez to to have all of that, to be so free to do whatever it is that you want because you have unlimited money and access and all of these things.
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: And I look at people like that and I'm like you know what you can have it Like it's really gross what it does to people.
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: So I'd rather, I'd rather be a not have than a have if it, if that's what it does to you and that's not, you know, for everybody.
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: You look at the Trump family.
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: These are, you know about, as fine, upstanding people as you can, you can get.
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: They're all productive, contributing.
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: You know humans in society and they have more money than they could possibly know what to do with.
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: So it's a character thing.
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: You know who just lost out on a whole bunch of money?
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: The former president and CEO of CBS News.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she did, yes.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, this is Wendy McMahon is her name, and this goes back, folks.
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: The you know the Kamala Harris 60 minutes interview, right?
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: Right, yeah, I mean, this is the origin, right.
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: So it goes back to that which we all know was doctored, right.
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: You know it was re -edited, she was given opportunities to re-answer questions, you know, and president Trump sued the network.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: For what is it?
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: $20 billion, $20 billion yep.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: And so Paramount, who owns CBS, you know, has basically said we're not fighting this because we know even the optics are bad, so they're not going to fight it.
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: Last week it went into arbitration or into mediation, so they're going to settle out of court on this thing, which I know technically is not an admission of guilt.
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: I get that.
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: However, it doesn't look good.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: So anyway, you know, Ms Wendy McMahon, president and CEO of CBS News, said we are not doing this.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: I don't support this.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: If you guys do this at Paramount, if you do this, I'm resigning.
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: And Paramount looked at her and said go ahead.
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, exactly.
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: And she really was kind of.
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: They called her, they called her bluff.
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: So she resigned.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: I don't know how much she was making.
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: I'm assuming the president and CEO of CBS News makes a decent amount of money.
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, she was probably getting a good chunk of change.
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: So this is also I forgot about this until I was looking, you know, doing some research they also had Bill Owens, who's the executive producer of 60 Minutes, resigned in April.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: So you know, this is a lot of upheaval, for really, what is CBS's anchor show, cbs News's anchor show of 60 Minutes?
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: So you've had the executive producer and now the president and CEO, both based on the same lawsuit from President Trump.
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: Because Bill Owens said the same thing.
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: He said listen, paramount is going to come down.
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: They basically gave him some guidance and said listen, we're going to run this a lot cleaner than we have.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: It's going to be less editorial and more news.
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: And Owens, who had been there for a long time, was like that's not how I run things.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: And they said we don't care, that's how we're running things.
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: And he did the same thing.
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: He said I'm leaving and he bailed.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: So that's a bit of a mess.
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: So that's now two lawsuits.
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: Right, that President Trump against the media is coming out on top.
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: Do you see a massive change in mainstream media, at least maybe from the legacy networks?
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, massive change in mainstream media, at least maybe from the legacy networks.
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think this is definitely a sign of the shift that's happening.
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: They're seeing the writing.
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: Some of them are well, let me rephrase that, they're all seeing the writing on the wall.
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: It's whether or not they're going kicking and screaming or leading the charge, basically to make the change so that they can pretend that they were.
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: You know, we weren't involved with any of that.
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: You know, we're not those guys.
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: We're.
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: You know, and those are the smart ones.
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: Those will be the smart ones because if you get ahead of this, if you're a Jake Tapper and you are getting ahead of this in whatever way you choose, you probably will end up okay.
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: But the structure and the behaviors of legacy media, or alphabet media, as I prefer to call them, this, this is the, this is the shift.
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: It's beginning and it could not have come at a better time.
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: They can't get away with it anymore, you know.
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: And, of course but you know again, I always bring it back around to what's going on in the minds of the left and of course, they are going to be kicking and screaming and and you know, probably protesting things, because that's what they do right, that this is some kind of censorship and this is.
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: You know they're.
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: They're going to call it all of those things and and I don't care what they call it, call it whatever you want.
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: You know you paint that picture however it makes you feel better in your little corner.
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: You know, the fact is is this is what you know I've been harping on and so many of us have been harping on for so long that we want accountability in media, and I know you may have been the one I'm going to give you credit with with this, because I feel like it was a clayism way back once upon a time when we talked about this.
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: I feel like it was a clayism way back once upon a time when we talked about this that you know it's not going to be by legislation.
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: You really don't want government involved in media like that.
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: I mean, we saw what happened.
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: They changed the narrative of the entire country for an election cycle through social media.
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: So we knew we don't.
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: We wouldn't want to see that happen the government stepping in and making them do things or not do things.
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: What we wanted to see, or what we needed to see, was things like massive lawsuits.
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: You know that we're going to basically cut them off at the knees, where they couldn't fight that.
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: And you know it happens to be President Trump that led the charge on the lawsuits, and I'm thrilled for that.
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: Listen, if he didn't have a leg to stand on, none of this would be happening.
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: So you know, don't, nobody should be fooled, because in the proof of that is you could talk about the Supreme court not always siding with him, you know.
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: So nobody can really argue any of these things that it's because he's the president and he's abusing his power.
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: And you know this is a um, uh, a government overreach, or you know, whatever they're going to try and throw at this Um, no, this, this is the accountability that we've been um, demanding, finally starting to happen.
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: And yeah, they're, they got a, they got a wild ride ahead of them.
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: Listen, you, you and I have said this a number of times we are not reporters, right, this is all editorial, all of it.
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: Right, we take a topic, we present some facts associated with the topic, you and I provide our opinions on the topic, right, and all it is is to give things people something to think about, right, maybe a discussion point.
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: That's what we're doing.
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: We are not reporting the news.
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: The problem is is that the news sources and this is a prime case, right, 60 Minutes, this interview, vice President Harris, running for president, was presented as news, as truthful as an interview, unedited, unaltered, blah, blah, blah, blah.
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: And then it turned out not to be true.
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: And the news itself from legacy media, from the streaming sources, whatever, right, has become so editorialized, so opinionized.
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: You don't know what is the news and what isn't the news.
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: Right, and that's why independent journalism is back on the rise is because people don't trust mainstream media, and this is an example of that.
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: So, yes, people are.
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: People are voting with their feet.
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: We know that.
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: You know, mainstream media is not being paid attention to like it had in the past.
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: Ratings are in a dumpster right now, and it's because of their conduct.
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: So, you know, this is the way that changes their conduct and it changes how they report, you know, as the fourth, you know, arm of the government, you know.
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: Then so be it.
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: I think this is the change that's required.
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: We do all just have to be careful that doesn't swing in the opposite direction.
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: We don't want the government involved in media.
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: This is why PBS and NPR, like that stuff's going away because the government was too involved in the messaging over those networks.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: So we don't want that.
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: So we've got to make sure that the pendulum doesn't go swing in the other direction.
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: We've got to make sure that we don't have, you know, like the old Soviet days where they controlled the media, kind of stuff.
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: We don't need that.
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: We just want better, cleaner, more honest reporting.
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: And folks listen.
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: Fox News is biased too.
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: Okay, of course, absolutely they listen.
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: Fox News is biased too.
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: I watch Gutfeld.
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: He makes me laugh.
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: Actually, his guests make me laugh more than he does.
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: I don't like Jesse Waters Hannity.
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: I can only take him in small doses for the exact same reason, because it is biased news and again, I'm cautious calling that news.
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: So I'm glad these things are happening.
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: You know, cbs just is bearing the brunt of it right now.
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: I do give Ms McMahon a little bit of credit fora, little bit of courage to say listen, if you do this I'm leaving.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: Paramount said so good for her for standing up for her principles, as misguided as they may be.
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: But you know, good honor.
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I completely agree.
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: Do you think you know?
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: The next phase of that is is how do you think the media, particularly obviously legacy media, mainstream media, do you think this is going this enough of a slap on the hands that they're not going to do this stuff anymore, this manipulation, whatever, what, or is it all depend on?
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: They'll be more careful about it.
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: For sure, it will definitely do that.
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: But I think as a whole, I think you will see a shift.
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: I think you will see a different.
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: I don't know exactly how, but I think you'll see a difference.
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: It's not going to be Walter Cronkite, I can tell you.
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: I don't know exactly how, but I think you'll see a difference.
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: It's not going to be Walter Cronkite, I can tell you, but you're going to see a different type of reporting.
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: I think in the next presidential election cycle In three years, when it kicks off, you will see a very different style of media coverage and that will evolve over time.
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: But yes, this is a slap heard around the world and they're going to all take it seriously because they can't afford $20 billion, right?
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: No, not these days for sure.
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: Maybe once upon a time, but not these days, not anymore.
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I think there's probably one thing I would like to believe, that there's one thing that, whether you're on the left or the right, that I think we can all agree that we just really want unbiased news.
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: Like just give me what the facts are.
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: Like it makes me want to swear, it makes me so angry, like all I actually want is the facts.
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: Don't tell me how to feel, or don't try, and you know, sway, how I feel about it.
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: Tell me what the facts are, let me process that and think about what that means to me and how, how I feel about it, without you telling me how to feel about it.
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: Tell me what the facts are, let me process that and think about what that means to me and how, how I feel about it, without you telling me how to feel about it or implying how I should feel about it and that's it.
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: Like I feel.
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: Like I mean, please if the one person on the left is watching this tell me you agree with me that all you want is the truth.
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: You know, I don't want his side or his side or her side.
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: I don't give a crap about anybody's side of things.
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: I want the actual facts and truth period.
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: I mean, am I crazy, clay?
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: No, but, and I will say this opinion pieces are fine.
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: I have no problem with that, as long as it's not presented as fact, right?
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: There used to be the whole.
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: Nobody reads a newspaper anymore, right?
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: The whole editorial page, right, I think?
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: Now, what you get online and when you're looking at it on your phone, it's probably not the clearest thing in the world, but there are usually like this little red square that says opinion, right, most people don't pay attention to or, after they see it, they don't, you know, they disregard it.
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: But when it comes to network news reporting, there is no flash across the bottom of the screen that says editorial or opinion or anything like that.
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: You just have reporters, and you know, to me, for decades, george Stephanopoulos has been the worst of the worst.
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: But that's what you get, is you get opinion versus news, and that you're right.
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: That's not what we want.
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: We just want the facts.
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: We're grownups, we'll figure it out and we don't have to be spoon fed opinion.
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: So right, yeah, exactly, yeah, yeah, if you want to watch, you know?
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: Oh well, gutfeld is a great example, any show like that, or the five or any of those you know.
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: They're like I said, they're giving opinions on news stories.
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: Excuse me, you know, that's fine, that's great.
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: Label it as as such, Right?
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what do we got next?
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: Sorry, I'm trying not to like joke.
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: Today, elsa's having a day here.
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: Oh, let's see.
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: Let's move on to this guy.
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: Russia, russia, russia.
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: I don't know why I have to say it like that every time.
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: I can't help it.
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: It's okay, you're a Brady Bunch kid, I get it, I am, I am.
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: I'm the Brady Bunch era.
• 32:55
  Speaker 3: I just have to.
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: You're the bottom window, it's okay.
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, yes, oh.
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: So yeah, russia-ukraine peace talks are underway, or were underway.
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: Russia's open to ceasefire based on current battle lines.
• 33:13
  Speaker 3: Ukraine isn't agreeing unless territory is returned.
• 33:15
  Speaker 3: This is kind of more your area.
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: Give me your thoughts and opinions on that.
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: So you know, President Trump has said from the get go, and even during his campaign, that he wants this war to end, because he wants killing to end.
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: Right, and, and truthfully, he doesn't believe in investing any money in this.
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: And being who he is Right US money, nato money nobody should be investing in this because it's a waste and and oh, by the way, it's a waste of human lives and he just wants it to end.
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: He's been very, very clear about that, which is also why he's not really taking sides.
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: He did spend two hours on the phone with President Putin and came off the phone and said listen, he's sick of the killing too, he's sick and tired of the dying.
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: He wants the war over with.
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: So now what we're doing is stepping back to an extent and forcing the issue of Ukraine-Russia direct peace talks with no US influence, interference, mediation, any of the rest of that stuff.
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: Let them figure it out.
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: Now this is where kind of the rubber meets.
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: The road in this thing is you know who's willing to give up what, and you know Zelensky doesn't have a lot of room to maneuver on this.
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: He really doesn't.
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: He can say no and he can demand to have Ukraine restored to what it was, and and the Russians don't have to give it to him.
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: He is with us backing out especially, and really the position we've taken since president Trump got into office is he doesn't have a lot of help.
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: So you know, we were trying to get him to see that, when he came to the Oval Office and made an ass out of himself, is that he doesn't have.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: That's what President Trump kept yelling at him was you don't have the cards, right, you don't have the cards to make this deal.
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: Let me make it for you and let's get this thing over with.
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: And so now we're backing out and really making them do it between the two nations, but Zelensky's got nothing to go on.
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: He has no bargaining chip.
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: Putin is tired because it's wasting resources and it's wasting money and it's destroying his army, and he's already leaned on.
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: You know he's leaned on North Korea, which was a weird one.
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: You know there's some some influence with China, although, by the way, we talked about this last week right there's the economic connection between the US and China.
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: At this point, with the tariff reduction, you've got the US renegotiating with OPEC, right, who provides a lot of the you know a lot of economic influence into Russia, including oil, you know, et cetera.
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: So you know a lot of economic influence into Russia, including oil, you know, et cetera.
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: So you know there's a lot of push behind Russia to shut this thing down.
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: And I think that President Trump is trying something new.
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: He's trying something different, which is he's not trying to negotiate the deal, he's just trying to force the deal to be negotiated, which is a new and different position for him.
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: But I think it's pretty smart actually.
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: You know, for as little as I know of that world, it sounds smart.
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean, because you're talking about, you know, let's face it, putin is.
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: You know he's a superpower.
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: You do have to be careful, you do have to be strategic in how you deal with him, with them, with Russia and with China, of course, and I think President Trump has such a instinctive understanding of how to deal with very specific people.
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: You know he's not treating you know him the same way he is treating the South African president today.
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: You know that was a very different.
• 36:50
  Speaker 3: I know that's not on our list, but you know it just happened.
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: Oh, this is the time stamper, right.
• 36:55
  Speaker 3: You tell him.
• 36:55
  Speaker 3: Clay, tell him the timestamper right.
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: Can you tell them, clay?
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: Tell them, yeah, it is currently Wednesday at 5, approximately 15 PM on the East coast.
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: So, yeah, you and I thought exactly the same thing.
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: We forgot to do the timestamp.
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: But you're right.
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: You know, the South African president, you know, was in the Oval Office today and President Trump handled him like a child.
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: He literally rolled the TV in, turned the lights down and said this is you right?
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: This is the genocide I'm talking about.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: That you're denying is going on right, totally different.
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: He would never do that to Putin.
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: He didn't want to do that to Zelensky.
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: Zelensky forced him to because he acted like an idiot, right?
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: So, yeah, you're right.
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: I think it's smart, I think it's very intuitive for him, but it is not his norm.
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: You know, he's the action guy.
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: He wants to be in the middle of everything and this time he's backing away, which, again, I think, is out of character, but incredibly smart.
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: I only know what I feel, that I observe.
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: I think this is again a wildly different presidency than was the last time.
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: I think he has, of course, the right people around him and I think he is listening to input from you know people who know people would have these, these insights and answers of how to deal with very specific people and, of course, I think he knows generally.
• 38:19
  Speaker 3: But again, I think this is a very cooperative move on his part in getting a really clear understanding of what the next move should be, and I would imagine they are sitting in those rooms strategizing.
• 38:32
  Speaker 3: Okay, if we do it like this, if we tell you know, if we put the hammer down and say we're getting involved in this, let's play out what's going to happen, I think any, you know.
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: I mean that's what you, of course, you should be doing, but that's what I imagine happening, and they probably played out every scenario here and this is the one that makes the most sense.
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: So, you know, I hope that they do the right things.
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: You know, zelensky, I mean both of them.
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: You know they are, they are, they're wild cards and and obviously Trump knows that and he knows that he can't really predict what they're going to do, or that they're going to do what they're saying that they're going to do, you know.
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: So I think that's another part of that right that you know I'm going to take this very, very conscious step back for us, the United States, and say this is your problem, you better handle it.
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: You know, brilliant, brilliant.
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and he's running it.
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: We, collectively, the world, are running out of options on ways to end this other than a complete.
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: You know, either a NATO step in as peacekeepers and put the wedge in between which I don't advocate for, but you know there's that or there's total victory.
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: One way or the other, there's not a lot of options left, and very and even fewer, to end this peacefully.
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: The other, there's not a lot of options left, and very and even fewer, to end this peacefully.
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: So you know, before NATO gets involved, or the UN, nato more likely, I think this is a different approach and I like it.
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: So we'll see what happens.
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, let's talk about something we're not going to like talking about All right, Listen I?
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: this is shameful for the Navy.
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: So Admiral Robert Burke is his name.
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: He is a four-star retired.
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: He was actually the vice CNO of the Navy.
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: If you don't know what that means, the CNO is the chief of naval operations, which is equivalent to the chief of staff.
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: He is the chief of staff of the Navy, right?
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: They just use a different term because they're sailors, right?
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: So chief of naval operations is the chief of staff.
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: He is the highest ranking naval officer.
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: The vice is his second, his number two.
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: So he was the second highest ranking, second most powerful Navy officer before any of this happened.
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: He was also in charge of all of their personnel at one point in time.
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: I don't know what the sequencing of that was, but he was in charge of all of the personnel across the Navy.
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: So he is about to be the highest ranking or second high, I think, highest ranking military prisoner, the highest ranking individual to go to jail because he is facing 30 years in prison for bribery.
• 40:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: So what he did specifically?
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: He took a 500,000 a year job in exchange for steering defense contracts towards a private firm.
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: Kind of sounds like a no-no, huh.
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah it's.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: I won't say these don't happen because there have been incidences that I know of where you know you do.
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: You know I shouldn't say you do, but what happens is people, high ranking officers, who have the ability have oversight over contracts for any number of things construction, for training, for purchases, whatever it is.
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: You know they kind of lean towards people they know.
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: Generally that happens out of like I'm doing a solid for my buddy, right, that's the intent of it, not necessarily what Admiral Burke did, which is exchange it for a half a million dollar a year job.
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: So this is an unnamed corporation and he was kicking training contracts their direction in the hundreds of millions of dollars for this unnamed corporation in exchange for a $500,000 a year job upon his retirement.
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: And really what he screwed up on the most was when you do contracting you're supposed to do open bid for almost everything, which means you put out a requirement that says we need a company to do X, y, z here's the stipulations that we're looking for and it's an open bid.
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: Any company can come to you and say we can fulfill all of those and it's a competition bid.
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: Any company can come to you and say we can fulfill all of those right and it's a competition.
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: You evaluate who submits a bid and who's best to fill the requirement and then, through that evaluation, you say, okay, that's the company that we're going to go with, right.
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: It's open bid.
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: You can, in certain cases, when you're looking for speed, right, need it filled right away is one reason.
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: And then another reason is we know there's only one company that can fulfill this requirement, so they do what they call sole source.
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: We know who's going to fill the contract, we know that they're the only ones that are capable, or we know that they're the only ones that can do it, the amount of time we need it done, et cetera.
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: You can justify sole source contracting, which is what he did.
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: Sole sourced it to this unnamed company to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars and then found out it was in exchange for this half million dollar a year job when he retired.
• 43:05
  Speaker 3: And so was that the red flag.
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: How did he actually get caught?
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: It was the sole sourcing that, yeah, the sole sourcing did it.
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: That's really what did him in.
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: I guess they were being careful about this.
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: This all happened in a window of 2020 to 2022.
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: You know, they they were being careful about this.
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: This all happened in a window of 2020 to 2022.
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: Um, and, but I guess they held a meeting and he and he basically told them stay away from me, like physically, like let's not, you know, um, or maybe they told him the same thing, like hey, let's, you know, keep at a distance.
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: We'll make this as, as you know, innocent looking as possible.
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: And then they had a personal meeting somewhere in 2021 where they actually met, and I think that was kind of one of the indicators.
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: And then it all came apart after that.
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: Wow, yeah, 30 years in jail he's going to.
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: He's going to die in jail if he serves a whole sentence, cause he's 60, I think he's 64 years old at this point.
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: Um, so even if he serves half of it, he's still going to be 79.
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: Um, yeah, not good.
• 43:57
  Speaker 3: Not good Speaking of not good Navy incidents.
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: Not, that's funny.
• 44:02
  Speaker 3: I don't know why I just laughed.
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: That was so wrong.
• 44:04
  Speaker 3: There's one of those, I don't know what that was.
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: It's an uncomfortable, it's a Kamala laugh.
• 44:07
  Speaker 3: That's exactly, thank you.
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: Thank you, clay.
• 44:09
  Speaker 3: Yes, that's exactly what it was.
• 44:10
  Speaker 3: That was the Kamala laugh that just snuck right out there.
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, this is actually crazy and awful and we do have a little clip of the video, so let's watch that for a moment.
• 44:22
  Speaker 3: You can hear the people in the background.
• 44:23
  Speaker 3: They think it's like disbelief.
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, at first glance and I'm sure in meeting for the people like recording this and watching this, you know there's, there's no way they could have known how really catastrophic that was.
• 44:42
  Speaker 3: For I think what was it?
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: Two, two people died, two cadets, two cadets, yeah, wow, and I think like 23 people injured see from that bridge, really from that vantage point they were filming, was that they were standing along those rolled sails.
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: So, as they went up the mast right and you've got the levels of sails up there right and I don't know the naval, I don't know what the term is for the the cross, you know where the sail comes down, they were standing on those when they hit the bridge, um, and you can tell if you look I, the attention obviously is drawn to the masts and it impacts the bridge, but that ship is going backwards.
• 45:24
  Speaker 3: Oh, okay.
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: So there was a.
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: It was not meant to go that way, right, and it had a mechanical failure.
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: My assumption, since the sails were rolled up, it had a mechanical failure in the engine and then flowed backwards, probably with the flow of the river, and that's why it?
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: Hit the and that's why it hit the bridge.
• 45:43
  Speaker 3: So that it really does explain everything.
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: I mean it explains a lot because you know, like you said, watching it you're like how could they not see the bridges there?
• 45:51
  Speaker 3: Like what are they doing, you know, with a drunk?
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: What's going on?
• 45:54
  Speaker 3: That makes perfect, perfect sense.
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: Just absolutely awful.
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: Very, very sad, very tragic.
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: And to make it worse, so it's the.
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: I am not even I'm going to butcher it.
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: I can't either.
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: I think you're going to try it.
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: The ARM.
• 46:08
  Speaker 2: Huatamac, I think, is what-.
• 46:11
  Speaker 3: Sounded good to me.
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: I think that's as close as it's going to get.
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: So it is a training ship for their naval cadets.
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: I don't think we operate anything old like that anymore.
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: I know we did for a while.
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: I know we have a sailing team at the Naval Academy and we do have some older ships, but I don't think we operate anything like that.
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: I know we still have some in the inventory the Constitution, the Constellation which are both museum ships, but anyway, they were here on a goodwill um had been here for a couple of weeks, um, and then they were actually that was I.
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: I'm fairly confident that was their departure to go back to Mexico, um.
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: So they were on their way home when that happened, um.
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: But the worst part of what he blamed because what the first thing you do in a case like this- is blame somebody.
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: So he blamed DHS and Doge for cutting the Coast Guard.
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: And if there was more Coast Guard, they hadn't cut the Coast Guard.
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: There was more Coast Guard, they would have been able to prevent this from happening with tugboats and all these other things.
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: Now Coasties and DHS have come out and said that is 100% false.
• 47:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we got a good little slap down for that nonsense.
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: But really Like that's, your immediate reaction is to blame for something like this.
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: Not knowing any of the details, not knowing anything, any reason why it happened, anything else, he immediately went after the administration because he's just a piece of garbage as a human being?
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, and you know he's, he's emblematic of the Democrat party, and that will kind of go back to that a little bit.
• 47:55
  Speaker 3: It's, it's not well, it does actually.
• 47:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what.
• 47:57
  Speaker 3: Let's, let's go right to that.
• 47:58
  Speaker 3: Since I just brought it up, let's, let's go to Bernie, if you don't mind.
• 48:01
  Speaker 3: Bernie, Bernie, so funny.
• 48:06
  Speaker 3: But you know, this is just like the overarching theme of the Democrat party, that they cannot stop sticking their foot in their mouths.
• 48:17
  Speaker 3: You know, so to speak, they can't not keep screwing up and just destroying their party, like completely demolishing it.
• 48:27
  Speaker 3: And Bernie, you know, Bernie had some, I don't know.
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: Is it surprising, I don't know, for Bernie to say this A little bit.
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: It's a little bit of sour grapes.
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's such a crotchety old man, anyhow.
• 48:39
  Speaker 3: So you know, your first like glance is like oh, it's just a crotchety old bernie statement.
• 48:43
  Speaker 3: You know, there it is.
• 48:44
  Speaker 3: Uh, the democratic party is a threat to democracy.
• 48:47
  Speaker 3: The last fair election was in 2008.
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: Just throwing in the word yeah, so he's out on his, you know, fight the oligarchy with AOC, right when they're traipsing around in his multi-million dollar jet fighting the oligarchy.
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: And he stopped in on a I can't remember the name of it, but he stopped in on a podcast I can't remember the name of it, but anyway it's two younger guys who are Democrats, but anyway it's two younger guys who are, who are Democrats, yeah.
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: And so they started talking to Bernie about, you know, obviously, his entire intent of being there was to fight the oligarchy tour, right, that's what all this was for.
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: And they, they brought it up to him and they said, you know, hey, we kind of, we kind of feel like we're getting shafted.
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: They're both Democrats, admittedly and they said, we feel like, you know, the last election with no primaries, no primaries being run, you know, the, the, and then the elections before that, it seems like our candidates are being picked for us.
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: Bernie Sanders, you know, came in, if you are not Bernie Sanders, but you know, joe Biden came in very late in the in the previous election, so that was kind of taken out of everybody's hands, right.
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: And then, you know, and so on and so forth, and um, you know, the one before that was was, uh, hillary over Bernie, right, um, the democratic party and?
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: And so they said it.
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: They said to him like we, we don't feel, we feel like it's the.
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: They actually asked him is the democratic party at?
• 50:13
  Speaker 2: Uh, they seem like they're the ones that are a threat to democracy.
• 50:17
  Speaker 2: And he said well, I did argue with you and he brought up I think he brought up the 2008.
• 50:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, with him and Hillary, and you know they fixed primaries was really what it was Right.
• 50:29
  Speaker 2: Every primary has been fixed since at least 2008.
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: And he said yeah, we're the Democratic Party is a threat to democracy and that's why I'm happily and independent.
• 50:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and he called him out for losing touch with the people.
• 50:41
  Speaker 3: So you know, I mean, listen, I'm never going to be a fan of Bernie's, other than to find enjoyment.
• 50:48
  Speaker 3: And out of you know his, his Muppet caricature of a person, he's just, he's just one of the old men on the Muppets you know up in the balcony.
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: Right, it's him all day long, you know.
• 51:02
  Speaker 3: So he's great for entertainment value, you know.
• 51:05
  Speaker 3: But him and his best gal, aoc, who hang on a second, who is considered the you know, top pick there.
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: She's like their number one gal right now, which you know again, tells you everything you need to know about the state of this party.
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: Everything you need to know is right there.
• 51:27
  Speaker 2: And to your first point about they're in a lot of turmoil.
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: Number one this is the first time, truthfully, that since Bernie put the I on the back, you know, he took off the D and replaced it with an I.
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: This is the first time I've actually seen him sound like an independent.
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: Yes, right.
• 51:43
  Speaker 2: But you know there's a lot of turmoil in the Democratic Party right now at party level, because they're kicking David Hogue out already.
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, which he's already talking about turning around and suing them.
• 51:54
  Speaker 2: Right, and yeah, you've got such a mess in there, so you're right, they keep shooting themselves in the foot.
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: The whole thing with president Biden, with the cancer.
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: You know you've got Tapper's book.
• 52:05
  Speaker 2: You've got the her recordings.
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: You know they want Biden out of the way Cause he always he makes it worse every time he speaks.
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: There's a lot of crap going on.
• 52:12
  Speaker 2: And now you've got Bernie, who is part of the system right, he is long established part of the system saying, yeah, they suck pretty bad.
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: It's not a good look at all.
• 52:23
  Speaker 3: No, and you know to be honest with you, and we've kind of touched on this many times in the past that you know I don't want them to do anything different.
• 52:29
  Speaker 3: I want them to keep doing exactly what they're doing.
• 52:32
  Speaker 3: Don't change.
• 52:33
  Speaker 3: Don't change a thing.
• 52:35
  Speaker 3: I feel like there's a, there's a song there, an 80 song.
• 52:37
  Speaker 3: I won't do it to you, I won't start singing it, but, yeah, don't change, just keep doing exactly what you're doing.
• 52:43
  Speaker 3: This is, you know, one exception for us.
• 52:46
  Speaker 2: One exception.
• 52:47
  Speaker 2: I want them to run their cities better.
• 52:49
  Speaker 2: Yes, I want right.
• 52:51
  Speaker 2: And and new Orleans is prime example right.
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: So we had new Orleans new years.
• 52:57
  Speaker 2: We had the truck terrorism attack.
• 53:00
  Speaker 2: Right, where we had, you know, as bad as it was, what got the most amount of press was the FBI agent with the nose piercing, if you remember that.
• 53:09
  Speaker 2: And now we've got 10 prisoners escaped from a New Orleans it's the Orleans Parish prison so they escaped.
• 53:20
  Speaker 2: It was an inside job you and I were talking right before we started recording about, so it's an inside job.
• 53:29
  Speaker 2: We know that one person was arrested.
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: There were two more people arrested, not inmates, not escapees, but two more people contributing to the escape, but 10 escaped.
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: We've recovered five.
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: There's still five out there.
• 53:39
  Speaker 2: Um, you know, have you seen the pictures?
• 53:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I, I we actually have, uh, the video of yeah, here's a video of, I'm just making the run for it, uh, but yeah, you're um, you're referencing the, um, the pictures of the actual cells with the.
• 53:56
  Speaker 3: You know, too easy there's like a, yeah, so crazy.
• 54:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, folks, if you haven't seen it, they removed the entire toilet apparatus, moved it, broke a hole in the wall.
• 54:08
  Speaker 2: This is like Alcatraz escape kind of stuff.
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: Right, broke a hole in the wall, took the time to write some graffiti all around the hole.
• 54:17
  Speaker 2: You know as they were doing this.
• 54:19
  Speaker 2: And then, when the time came, they, they, you know when they had it seems like a lot of access.
• 54:24
  Speaker 2: You know, probably cell doors were open and and so they, they moved the toilet out of the way and they all made a break for it.
• 54:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like some alternate universe.
• 54:32
  Speaker 3: Shawshank redemption right, Zero redemption not an ounce of redemption going on.
• 54:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and so very much like New Year's.
• 54:40
  Speaker 2: What is getting even more attention I don't know if you saw this is the press conference.
• 54:45
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, stephanie Minto Gibson is her name.
• 54:51
  Speaker 2: She stepped up there and she was the spokesperson for the police department.
• 54:56
  Speaker 2: Spokesperson for the police department.
• 55:00
  Speaker 2: And she stood up there in her police uniform with these whacked out green large frame crazy glasses and listen, she might be the most competent spokesperson in the world.
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: She looked like an idiot which, again, when you've got a crisis situation that says you know we've had a prison escape with violent criminals, she's not instilling a lot of confidence that they have the best people working at the police department.
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 55:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, not the face of confidence right there, oh yeah, yeah, it's wild.
• 55:32
  Speaker 3: And you know, I agree with you, of course.
• 55:34
  Speaker 3: You know if there's anything that they could do that would be of any use, it would be to do better, do better in your cities, you know.
• 55:43
  Speaker 3: But that's, that's counterintuitive to their goals.
• 55:46
  Speaker 3: That's never going to happen.
• 55:47
  Speaker 3: And you know, anyone who's been alive for more than a minute and who's been really paying attention knows that that is never the agenda for inner city leadership.
• 55:58
  Speaker 3: Right, they, they need these people, their citizens or constituents, to be dependent, to be angry, you know, I mean, that kind of sums it up, right.
• 56:10
  Speaker 2: I will say this Good for the people of New Orleans, because I heard two stories about the five that they found.
• 56:16
  Speaker 2: One of them was that the most violent of the 10 was found first.
• 56:21
  Speaker 2: He was the first one picked up and he somebody spotted him hiding under a truck at a gas station and called the police and the police came and they picked him up.
• 56:30
  Speaker 2: The second one was a guy asleep on a bench at a bus stop and, like some new Orleans citizen, walked over, said wait a minute, and he, like the guy's dead asleep and he pulls out his phone and he looked at the pictures of the escapees and he goes yep, and he called the police and the police walked over and you know, hey, buddy, you're going back to jail.
• 56:54
  Speaker 2: Like walk them up off the park.
• 56:55
  Speaker 2: So good for the people in New Orleans.
• 56:57
  Speaker 2: And for those of you listen, it's been a few days now.
• 57:03
  Speaker 2: So they're there if they, if they have any brains whatsoever.
• 57:05
  Speaker 2: They are miles, hundreds of miles away.
• 57:06
  Speaker 2: So everybody be on the lookout.
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: But good for the people in New Orleans.
• 57:08
  Speaker 2: If you see something, say something.
• 57:09
  Speaker 2: Please report what you know.
• 57:10
  Speaker 2: They will figure this out.
• 57:12
  Speaker 2: But it sounds like they've got three co-conspirators that have helped out with this and hopefully we'll get those five back into custody soon, before they do anything even dumber.
• 57:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, right, yeah, oh boy, you know, I think this.
• 57:27
  Speaker 3: You know these people turning them in and everything you know.
• 57:29
  Speaker 3: I think it's a good sign or a good example of the.
• 57:35
  Speaker 3: You know the fatigue that we all feel of the.
• 57:42
  Speaker 3: You know the fatigue that we all feel Like, as somebody I saw, I saw a couple of people posted you know, I think our buzzword right now is going to be Democrat fatigue, and I think that is right and I think that is like really apropos.
• 57:51
  Speaker 3: I feel like that is where we're at.
• 57:54
  Speaker 3: We are at leftist fatigue, we're at liberal fatigue, we're at Democrat fatigue, we're at stupidity fatigue.
• 58:02
  Speaker 3: We're done with all of it, you know.
• 58:05
  Speaker 3: And that doesn't mean and there's somebody that's going to come in and say, well, you're losing.
• 58:08
  Speaker 3: You know you need to be compassionate.
• 58:10
  Speaker 3: We already went over that before.
• 58:12
  Speaker 3: We've already talked about compassion.
• 58:14
  Speaker 3: You can be compassionate for people in need and people struggling and people who have difficult circumstances.
• 58:22
  Speaker 3: That doesn't excuse bad behavior.
• 58:25
  Speaker 3: It just simply doesn't.
• 58:27
  Speaker 3: Because if you've, if you've ever, you know people always say the people on the left will always say things like well, you don't understand, they had a difficult childhood and you know they, they need rehabilitation more than they need jail and all of these nonsensical things.
• 58:41
  Speaker 3: They, if you have existed on Earth, you've had a television, you've had people in your life other than the people who've done you wrong.
• 58:48
  Speaker 3: You have seen examples of good behavior, right.
• 58:52
  Speaker 3: So there are no excuses and I just I can't buy it.
• 58:55
  Speaker 3: I can't buy into it.
• 58:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and that word fatigue is a good word and I think you know we've got this administration in place that is no longer tolerating.
• 59:04
  Speaker 2: You know they're fatigued too and they're speaking for all of us because they got elected to do so.
• 59:09
  Speaker 2: They're no longer tolerating.
• 59:10
  Speaker 2: You know the crap from the liberal left and you know Marco Rubio did it, rfk Jr did it, both of them this week basically in testimony that RFK Jr did it, both of them this week basically in testimony, you know, were getting grilled or getting, you know, comments made towards them and they snapped back, which was great.
• 59:24
  Speaker 2: Rubio, you know, basically, yeah, he told the Congressman because the Congressman told him at the end of his allowed remarks, said and I have to tell you in person that I regret, you know, voting for you for Secretary of State, and he goes and I, you know, turn over my time or whatever he said.
• 59:38
  Speaker 2: And so Rubio asked if he could respond and the chairman said go ahead and he goes.
• 59:42
  Speaker 2: If I, if you're regretting your vote for me, that means I'm doing a good job.
• 59:45
  Speaker 2: And then he went into his explanation for everything that was going on.
• 59:49
  Speaker 2: And then RFK RFK, you know, testifying this week basically looked at a lady.
• 59:53
  Speaker 2: That was the I think she's Department of Health.
• 59:57
  Speaker 2: He said you've been here for 30 something years.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 2: You've contributed to the demise, you've contributed to the sickness of this nation.
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 2: You know, blah blah, blah, blah blah, and he and he went after her, and so I think that's that is very emblematic.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 2: It's very representative of how so many people in this country feel right now, and it's good to see that our elected and appointed officials, who represent us, are holding the government accountable for their you know their role in where we sit right now.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 2: So that's what people voted for and I think they're getting what they paid for.
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 3: Oh, absolutely Absolutely.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 3: I feel that way very much right now, and that they're doing it so eloquently to, you know, eloquent and firm and straight to the point and fact, loaded, which has been, you know, eloquent and firm and straight to the point and fact, loaded, which has been, you know, so enjoyable to watch, no sputtering or stumbling over their words, it, it.
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 3: They are so clear and concise and it's such a joy to watch.
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 3: I did watch, I didn't watch.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 3: Uh, I caught little bits of RFKs, juniors, um, I did watch, um, rubio's, and again, that man is making me so proud.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 3: He's such a beast, he's an absolute beast, and that guy-.
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 2: You don't want to debate with that guy.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 3: Like that is.
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 2: You're going to walk yourself into a lot of trouble if you get into a verbal debate with that guy.
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he is a verbal assassin Very intelligent, super quick-witted, and he is not afraid.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 2: He will bring it.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 2: So, yeah, it's pretty awesome.
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 2: We're starting to see again folks.
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 2: It's 120 days, like we are 120 days in, maybe a little bit more, but that's right where we're at and this is what we're seeing.
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 2: We still have three and two thirds years of this, so you know it's a lot to look forward to.
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it is, oh, my goodness gracious.
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 3: We did it again.
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 3: We had, like I don't know, seven, eight topics, I think.
