  Speaker 4: The almost identical color. I think. So it's like it's
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: a lighting. It could be the lighting.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: It It could be that we are spending way too
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: much time talking about what things look like on the radio.
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: You look like you have a little purple on you too.
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: That's his eye.

• 1:52
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I've got a hell of a shine.
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: Oh. Yes, that's a teachable moment right there. It is
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: a teachable moment. I'll tell you a story.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you a story that happened yesterday.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: Then there is Amy. There you are, Amy, Hi, Hi,
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: and Cono there you are, and last and maybe least
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: ever least, so yesterday. All right, so yesterday, just a
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: quick word. Yesterday there was I was told by someone
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: down the street who knows us and knocked on the
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: door and said, something weird just happened. And what is that? Well,
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: there's a guy out here who is washing windows and
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: asked me, doesn't handle live around here? And I was
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: outside and then yes, And then another person who was
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: just out walking also said, this guy came into the
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: neighborhood and said, you know, I know Handle lives around here,
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: someplace from Torrence. It was I know, it was a
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: little It was a little distressing because as we are
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: talk show host people, I mean, we used to get
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: out and out death threats. That's calm down, but there
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: are plenty of people who write some pretty vicious things
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: about us, which you know, the cost of doing business,
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: which is fine. But in our neighborhood and we're a
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: gated community and here's this guy walking around.
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: So we called the sheriff's.
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: Department and a couple of sheriffs came out, and I
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: took the information and I came so close to me
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: I have the shiner, as you know, this big one.
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: I came this close to.
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: Telling the sheriffs Lindsey did this to me and she
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: would have been carted off in handcuffs.
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: Wow. Yeah, but I didn't. Not a dull moment over it,
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: but I did.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: So the point is we don't know what's going on.
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: That's a little distressing.
• 3:57
  Speaker 6: Wait a second one was a worker cleaning windows, and
• 4:00
  Speaker 6: then the other, well the guy.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: The guy was a window cleaner and someone asked him no.
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: He asked them, there's someone who's walking past, uh, past
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: on the sidewalk, past his truck where he had come
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: to get windows supplies or a window washing supplies. And
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: he asked her, doesn't Handle live around here? Where is
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: Handel's house? Were they two different people? Yeah, two different
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: people were asked by this guy rands community. No, No,
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: the yeah, one was working in the other two lived
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: in my gated community. Maybe I'm not making myself very clear.
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: You never do. The point is and it wasn't.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: It wasn't. It wasn't Bill Handle or mister Handle. It
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: was just doesn't Handle live around here? And you know,
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: we go, Uh.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: The bottom line is, we don't do anything.
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: It's an event that we talked to people where we
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: meet people that we don't have armed security. We have
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: to because the world is so nuts. You know, for example,
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: the wine dinner, and it's a good segue on Thursday,
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: the Antonory wine Dinner at the White House restaurant, and
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: since I mentioned that I'm going to be there, which
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: I am going to be there instantly, we have armed security.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: I mean we did. There's no choice. You know where
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: that came from. It came from years and years ago
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: when we got our first death threat and they don't happen.
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: I can't remember the last time it happened. But it
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: turned out that once that death threat came in, there
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: had to be armed security because can you imagine if
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: something happened and there wasn't security. At that time, I
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: was married to Marjorie, and as I said, something happens
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: to me after the information, after it shared, there's a threat,
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: you might as well just hand the keys to the
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: radio station over to over to Marjorie. That's it, here's
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: here's here's a radio station. Enjoy yourself. So it's it's
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: really kind of crazy. So we don't know what's going on.
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: Well, neighbors are one thing. If they live in the community,
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: what are you gonna do?
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: This guy did not live in the community. He did not,
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: so how did he get in there?
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: We don't know.
• 6:08
  Speaker 6: Wow, great security. You should probably not tell everybody right
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: now how crappy your security is.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: Well, we also have dogs that eat people. We have
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: an electrified fence around the property. Is the and we
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: have machine guns. Every window is.
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: The is the elevator glass lexan? Is it a bulletproof or?
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: All right, it's time for handle on the news. You
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: have to go there, don't han, Neil, You just uh well.
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: You could. It could be your escape elevator.
• 6:43
  Speaker 6: Like Willy Wonka shoots out the top of the roof
• 6:45
  Speaker 6: and you guys will be safe.
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: It could be you wanted some news. What do you
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: think I thought I would just share that with you, Wed. Yeah, yeah,
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: it's I mean, especially now because there's more crazy out
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: there than there's been for a very long time. To
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: remember all the stuff we used to have, Neil, it
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: was weekly back then. Oh yeah, I had a wall
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: of hate. We're an entire wall in my office, which
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: of course now we don't have offices, so we're just
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: on the floor without even desks. We sit on the floor.
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: Do you remember the guy I think his name was
• 7:21
  Speaker 6: Al He was a former FED that worked for us
• 7:25
  Speaker 6: as a private investigator. And because I got a couple
• 7:29
  Speaker 6: of death threats and this guy which would get into
• 7:34
  Speaker 6: their home and call you from their house saying what
• 7:36
  Speaker 6: do you want me to look for? And he was
• 7:38
  Speaker 6: inside their house. It's all I know where the guy works,
• 7:43
  Speaker 6: I know everything. It was crazy back in those days.
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: Uh yeah, And you know security, I don't know how
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: well it works because I've gotten to it. Dana, who
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: is our security guy. Someone will come up to me
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: and Dana's be right there, someone who obviously is and
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: an agonistic and will come up to me and basically
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: screaming me for what I'm about, which is fine.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: You know the politics bill, You're an a hole. Yeah,
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: I get it. I got no problem.
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: And when it gets just a little bit too aggressive,
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: I turned to Day and I go shoot him in
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: the heart.
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, all right, they are just one ahead of two
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: in the heart. I gain.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, do a double tap. And we have
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: yet to have that happen.
• 8:25
  Speaker 7: All right, how's this for a deal Iran has offered
• 8:29
  Speaker 7: to and it's choke hold of the straight of Horror News.
• 8:32
  Speaker 7: It says, all we have to do is lift the
• 8:34
  Speaker 7: US blockade and end the war.
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what does Trump do with this one?
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: Because you've noticed that everything else is off the table,
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: the nuclear Enrichmond program, the drone program, the support of
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: terrorist organizations around the world, there is not much talk
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: of that anymore. And the kind of talk we have
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: is opening up the straight and the blockade. And where
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: does President Trump go with this? Politically? I mean, it's
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: a who's winning this one, and the presidents said, well, it's
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: harder for them than it is for us, and it is.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: He's absolutely right about that.
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: The problem is is that the regime is perfectly willing
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: to let all of iron starve, where of course our
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: administration would never let that happen here. So there's no
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: place to go on this one. I'm just waiting to
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: see who blinks first, and I don't think it's I
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: don't think it's going to be President Trump.
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: I don't think it's going to be Iranian. I think
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: no one's gonna blink.
• 9:37
  Speaker 6: All right, Jimmy, maybe now is a good time to
• 9:41
  Speaker 6: shut your pie hole. I stood with Jimmy Kimmel last time.
• 9:44
  Speaker 6: But what a stupid remark. He comes out and says,
• 9:47
  Speaker 6: Miss Trump, you have a glow like an expected expected widow.
• 9:53
  Speaker 6: Could you imagine if that was Obama and Michelle Obama,
• 9:58
  Speaker 6: how people would crap their pain its So this was
• 10:01
  Speaker 6: said during a monologue after the attempted assassination on a president.
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: See I'm on the other side of that. I think
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: that these late night comedians, they they rip into Trump.
• 10:13
  Speaker 6: This was I don't mind him ripping into Trump at all,
• 10:16
  Speaker 6: but when it comes to when it comes to when
• 10:19
  Speaker 6: it comes to an attempted assassination. I know some people
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: think that that's not real, but let's assume that it was.
• 10:27
  Speaker 6: When it comes to that, you stand down in the
• 10:30
  Speaker 6: comedy region at least for a week or so.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: But this happened before the assassination attempt.
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: When he said this, he just says stuff about Trump
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: and Melania.
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: That's guys. Yeah, I didn't know that.
• 10:43
  Speaker 6: Actually, that does change it. If he said it prior
• 10:45
  Speaker 6: to then it's.
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it had to be just when all he said
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: last Thursday, Oh did he Yeah, he said it last Thursday.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: In the assassination temp was Saturday. Yeah, And it's just, uh,
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: that's what they do.
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: I mean, if you look out, that's different to me.
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: If you say it is that, it is so and
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: and the story is un.
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: To do more of that.
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: Of course, I appreciated the demand by Trump said it afterwards,
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: the demand by Trump that he get fired, Well that
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: worked once where Kimmel was fired and then quickly came back.
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: And so I can't see ABC caving in on this
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: no matter. What can you imagine if all the president
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: see say it, talked about his.
• 11:26
  Speaker 6: Talked about his monologue Monday night. But he was responding
• 11:31
  Speaker 6: to the first lady. That's what confused me, got it,
• 11:34
  Speaker 6: I thought it was Monday night.
• 11:35
  Speaker 7: Okay, So who's going to pay for the big, beautiful ballroom.
• 11:42
  Speaker 7: Trump's top allies are pushing for Congress to pay for
• 11:48
  Speaker 7: the ballroom after the President, you know, was taken out
• 11:51
  Speaker 7: of the White Horse correspondence dinner and is now saying
• 11:54
  Speaker 7: some matter matter of national security, that we have the ballroom,
• 11:57
  Speaker 7: that kind of stuff. But Republicans are divided on whether
• 11:59
  Speaker 7: to make taxpayers pay for it. Some prefer to let
• 12:02
  Speaker 7: Trump raise the money privately. It's the ninety thousand square
• 12:05
  Speaker 7: football room. Democrats are obviously firmly opposed to it, so
• 12:09
  Speaker 7: it would be tough for Republicans to get everybody together
• 12:12
  Speaker 7: to pass it. I thought that this was already done deal,
• 12:16
  Speaker 7: that Trump had said that it was going to be
• 12:18
  Speaker 7: privately fun.
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, for the first two hundred million. He's got two
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: hundred million more to go. That's the problem is that
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: it has doubled in cost, and we haven't heard lately
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: that has been privately funded. Also, the other part of
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: this story that a lot of people are not talking about,
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: which I think should be talking talked about, is that
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: the President used the assassination attempt as the basis of
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: his argument that this ballroom should be used.
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: For about yesterday. Right, So here's the question.
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: This was the Correspondence dinner, this was the White House
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: Correspondent stinner. They pay for it, they hire the venue,
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: they're the ones that put it on. So let's say
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: that next year, after the ballroom has been built and
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: the White House Correspondence go to the President, we'd like
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: to use the ballroom for our event. Really, really, the
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: point is do you think that you're going to have events?
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: Are they going to rent it out like venues, like
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: a venue. We do bar mitsvahs, we do weddings, we
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: do kN sierras. That one got you guys.
• 13:35
  Speaker 5: We're gonna have like Houston era at the White House.
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the point. It's going to be strictly White
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: House events. It'll be state dinners, that sort of thing. So, uh,
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: that is not an excuse therefore to say, well, we
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: need it because the for national security when event, when
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: the president appears at events.
• 13:53
  Speaker 7: It's not big enough either in the world's like a
• 13:56
  Speaker 7: thousand people. And the correspondents dinner had like twenty five hundred.
• 13:59
  Speaker 4: Did it?
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: I didn't even know that. Wow, Okay, I didn't think
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: it was. So there are places big enough. But then security,
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: there is a legitimate security concern underneath the bunker. Whether
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: we need it or not, I don't know. My guess
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: is probably because the situation room is very old and
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: the technology probably isn't meant to parse all by that,
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: But we have to build underneath. Therefore we have to
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: build on top of that. Just doesn't fly all right.
• 14:29
  Speaker 6: Moving on DeSantis, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has proposed a
• 14:36
  Speaker 6: new map for US House district that appears to show
• 14:41
  Speaker 6: Republicans gaining an advantage in four seats now held by Democrats.
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: So the tennis match continues now when this.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: Is all said and done, when everybody gets their way, right,
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: the Democrats get their way in terms of flipping the
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: House seats or the congressional district, so they have the advantage,
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: and the Republicans do the same thing.
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: On the other side.
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: All over the country, the Democrats have a one seat advantage.
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: God, I wish one of us had said that at
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: the very beginning.
• 15:14
  Speaker 6: Oh I did, I did that it was going to
• 15:17
  Speaker 6: be dominoes and that it was just going to go
• 15:19
  Speaker 6: back and forth and never sweat and you're right, and
• 15:21
  Speaker 6: that's going to be the same outcome.
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah. And the shame of it is that it's turning
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: around how correctional districts are drawn based on the census
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: Now it has nothing to do with a census, or
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: if it does, it's in the middle of the census period,
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: which is its census every ten years, and this they're
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: doing this in the middle of which is unheard of.
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: So it's all of it is completely.
• 15:45
  Speaker 7: Nuts, setting the stage for more sick kids. Apparently, according
• 15:49
  Speaker 7: to studies published in Jama Pediatrics, the decision to drop
• 15:55
  Speaker 7: the long standing recommendation that newborns receive a hepatitis vaccine
• 16:00
  Speaker 7: within twenty four hours of birth will likely lead to
• 16:03
  Speaker 7: hundreds of additional infections, along with more cases of liver
• 16:07
  Speaker 7: cancer death and millions in.
• 16:09
  Speaker 5: Added health care costs.
• 16:11
  Speaker 7: Of course, the Federal Vaccine Advisors voted in December to
• 16:14
  Speaker 7: replace the universal birth dose with a recommendation to delay
• 16:19
  Speaker 7: that first appetitis be shot until at least two much
• 16:21
  Speaker 7: of months of age.
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and the advisory board that did recommend that the
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: old recommendation, the CDC recommendation. Every one of them was
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: fired and the new advisory board RFK Junior put on there.
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: And I have a question, and this is going to
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: be a football pool boys and girls here at the studio.
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: At what point do you think that vaccinating your kids
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: is going to be a felony?
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: Okay, let's move on. That's a scary ass lot.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: Oh what.
• 16:55
  Speaker 6: Health inspection reports that surface this week showed section four
• 16:59
  Speaker 6: to three to two at Angel Stadium was hit with
• 17:02
  Speaker 6: a shutdown. In Specters found the concession stands were not
• 17:06
  Speaker 6: exactly running a tight ship. Turns out, rats, we're making
• 17:10
  Speaker 6: themselves at home, and so that seems that they are,
• 17:16
  Speaker 6: you know, looking at this rodent infestation in Angel Stadium.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: Be a little bit frightened of the Kabbabs.
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: There depends how their cook. Yeah, it depends on the cook.
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 17:31
  Speaker 7: Meta mess China has moved to block Meta's two billion
• 17:36
  Speaker 7: dollar acquisition of Chinese founded artificial intelligence startup Manus. It's
• 17:42
  Speaker 7: a decision that reflects Beijing's concerns that it could lose
• 17:45
  Speaker 7: some key technology to the US. Of course, the tech
• 17:49
  Speaker 7: war is heating up. The country's State planner demanded that
• 17:53
  Speaker 7: the two parties unwind the deal that they have made.
• 17:56
  Speaker 7: The move comes just a couple weeks ahead of President
• 17:59
  Speaker 7: Trump's much anticipated some with Chinese leader Shijinping in Beijing.
• 18:05
  Speaker 7: They're expected to talk about trade and technology and all
• 18:08
  Speaker 7: kinds of fun stuff.
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so China is and rightly so concerned about our
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: technology because we are at the forefront of it around
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: the world. However, China is so rapidly advancing in certain areas,
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: just blows right past anything the United States is doing,
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: for example, some chip making, some and certainly electric cars
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: whole different world. You know, if it was an open market,
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: Chinese ev vehicles would sell for about forty percent less
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: than what we pay, and they're better cars.
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: Oh here's a story, all right.
• 18:45
  Speaker 6: So you got the Trump administration yesterday say that they
• 18:49
  Speaker 6: were going to pay two more energy companies I didn't
• 18:52
  Speaker 6: know they had paid others, but including one developing a
• 18:55
  Speaker 6: wind project off more obey. They want them to abandon
• 18:59
  Speaker 6: their projects in federal waters. So basically, the US Department
• 19:04
  Speaker 6: of the Interior would pay a total of about eight
• 19:08
  Speaker 6: one hundred and eighty five million to Blue Point Wind
• 19:12
  Speaker 6: and Golden State Wind to voluntary in their offshore wind leases.
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: Both agreed.
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: I mean, well, yeah, look at all the money that
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: they're getting for not doing anything, for not investing any
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: more money. Just give us the money and we'll walk away. Now,
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: it had that's the only way that they the Feds
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: could get them to walk out, because these are contracts
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: that were signed. These were contracts that were into entered
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: into construction had already started and a couple of cases
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: almost finished. And we know that the administration hates alternative energy,
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: says it out right that we want fossil fuels. Drill,
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: baby drill. I mean, that's what that'sa wouldn't they have
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: turned this down? Yeah, of course they could. Yeah, it's
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: an altruistic goal to get wind energy. Why did they
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: just say no? Because you don't want to be on
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: the wrong side of the federal government when you're involved
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: with federal lands and federal leases and you just don't
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: want to get you You do not want this administration
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: pissed off at you.
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: It's that simple. It is just that simple.
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: So they're walking away. Give us enough money, we're walking away.
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: Do you have an offer they couldn't refuse?
• 20:22
  Speaker 7: A group of lawmakers says the US wasn't ready for
• 20:25
  Speaker 7: the fight. A group of Senate Democrats who are on
• 20:29
  Speaker 7: the Senate Armed Services Committee, including Elizabeth Warren, Mark, Kelly
• 20:33
  Speaker 7: Kirsten Gillibrand, and Richard Blumenthal, have all argued that the
• 20:38
  Speaker 7: Pentagon did not take basic precautions ahead of expected Iranian
• 20:43
  Speaker 7: retaliation after the US and Israel launched the war against
• 20:46
  Speaker 7: the Iranian regime in late February.
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: I think the big one is not taking into account
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: that the Strait of Hormuz will be shut down. I
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: think that's the big one where it's been said that
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: the Administration the Pentagon. Maybe the Pentagon did say that
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: that's a possibility, because the Pentagon goes through every single
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: possibility you can possibly imagine whenever there is any kind
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: of any kind of a military invasion, excursion, incursion doesn't matter.
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: But I think there's an argument here, of course the
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: Senate Democrats, because the Republicans, it doesn't matter.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: What the administration does is never wrong.
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: All right, So much for that, and we'll see what
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: happens with the straight of horror moves.
• 21:34
  Speaker 4: Oh by the way, before we take a.
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: Break, King Charles is going to be speaking in front
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: of a joint joint Session of Congress. They put together
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: both the Senate and the Congress, and occasionally you get
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: someone to make a speech. Winston Churchill did it, Nataia
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: who was invited. And so here is King Charles. Here
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: is the fun part. King Charles is there to celebrate
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: two hundred fifty years of the US independence from England,
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: when the US revolted.
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: Against England and became the United States.
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: He's going to stand up there and say, two hundred
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: and fifty years ago this country, the United States of America,
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: revolted against England.
• 22:21
  Speaker 6: Fake news, my great great great great great great great grandfather.
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: That's right. I find it fascinating. Maybe he wants a rematch, Yeah.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: Maybe, although he'd have a hard time with it this
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: time around.
• 22:36
  Speaker 6: A little unusual, but firm all the same. German Chancellor
• 22:41
  Speaker 6: Friedrich Mertz said Monday that Iran's leadership is humiliating the
• 22:48
  Speaker 6: United States and getting US officials to travel to Pakistan
• 22:53
  Speaker 6: and then leave without any results, and kind of strange
• 22:58
  Speaker 6: to be hearing this from Germany. But he went on
• 23:03
  Speaker 6: to say the Iranians are obviously very skilled negotiating, or
• 23:07
  Speaker 6: rather very skillful at not negotiating.
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's you know, it's not that strange for him
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: to say heretofore it would be. I mean, Germany is
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: probably the staunchest ally we have in Europe, short of
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: Great Britain, and it is the most powerful European country
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: staunch ally of the United States. All of a sudden,
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: not so much an ally anymore, because the President wants
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: out of NATO, and Europe relies on NATO big time
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: for its for not only just not only resources military resources,
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: but protection so.
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: And NATO relies on the US.
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: That's correct, and NATO relies on the US.
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: And the President has made it clear and did make
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: it clear to NATO countries you cannot you cannot keep
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: screwing the United States. We're not gonna pay for all
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: of it. You're going to come to the table and
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: pay your share. And they did, they did. The President
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: was right on Now the issue is opening up the
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: straight of horn Mooz that the Europe should be part
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: and parcel of it. And there's the fight going on
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: between Europe and the US.
• 24:20
  Speaker 5: It's over for now.
• 24:23
  Speaker 7: The largest measles outbreak in the US in decades has ended.
• 24:29
  Speaker 7: There were nearly one thousand confirmed cases over six months
• 24:33
  Speaker 7: in South Carolina. But now they've had two kind of
• 24:36
  Speaker 7: infection phases that have passed, and so they're saying, Okay,
• 24:39
  Speaker 7: it's over now. The outbook started in October, contributing to
• 24:43
  Speaker 7: a record breaking year for measols cases in the US
• 24:46
  Speaker 7: along with that large deadly outbreak in West Texas, and
• 24:50
  Speaker 7: public health experts are attributing the rise in measles cases
• 24:54
  Speaker 7: to falling vaccination rates.
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: Now what a shocker, huh? And the vast, vast majority
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: in this case. The story tells us that ninety percent
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: of the cases in South Carolina and across the country
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: where these folks did not receive the MMR vaccine, Which
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: makes no sense not to receive those vaccines.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: I mean, it makes no sense. And you're going to
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: see an outbreak.
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: And vaccinations have dropped dramatically, and we talked to Jim
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: about this all the time, and we're going to see
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: an uptick in Wapolio, probably because there are plenty of
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: people out there that just don't want to vaccinate their kids.
• 25:36
  Speaker 5: And the point I'll start, like at the about pandemic time.
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: It did no and I think it did also fascerbated it.
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: But yeah, it's disasterbated. I mean when RFK Junior came
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: into power, and he came in on the basis that
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: vaccinations cause autism and there are science backing them up
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: for decades and decades and decades.
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: Is in wood?
• 26:01
  Speaker 6: And what was the Playboy model what's her name that
• 26:05
  Speaker 6: used to come out and argue with doctors about that.
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: Justin McCarthy was at her name Jenny McCarthy.
• 26:12
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, so it had been around for a while,
• 26:15
  Speaker 6: but that absolutely blew it up.
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you don't see you don't see a cabinet ahead
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: of aj Jess arguing that, and it's it's gonna hurt,
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: it's gonna show.
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: You know, we've heard.
• 26:27
  Speaker 6: Stories of abuse of religious power in the Christian Church,
• 26:33
  Speaker 6: even in Judaism and others. Now a spiritual faith leader
• 26:41
  Speaker 6: in Native American You've got a Nevada judge sentencing this
• 26:46
  Speaker 6: actor who was in Dances with Wolves. His name is
• 26:49
  Speaker 6: Nathan Chasing Horse to life in prison for sexually assaulting
• 26:54
  Speaker 6: Indigenous women and girls, thirteen charges of at least three women.
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: Who was he and Dances with Wolves? I don't know?
• 27:03
  Speaker 6: But how old he's only forty nine? How old was
• 27:06
  Speaker 6: that movie? Thirty years ago.
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it could be.
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: I mean at forty nine he would have been so
• 27:13
  Speaker 4: he may a young man.
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he played a very young man. And I don't
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: know what kind of part he had, whether it was
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: just basically a cameo or just walking on the set. Anyway,
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: there's and he kept on insisting miscarriage of justice. He
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: will be eligible for parole in thirty seven years.
• 27:32
  Speaker 7: If you look at pictures of him, he's obviously a
• 27:35
  Speaker 7: teenager in this in Dances with Wolves, which was from
• 27:38
  Speaker 7: nineteen ninety.
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: Okay, so he didn't have a major part.
• 27:44
  Speaker 5: I think he did.
• 27:45
  Speaker 7: I mean I'm looking at when I look at the
• 27:47
  Speaker 7: pictures of it, I go, oh, yeah, I remember that.
• 27:50
  Speaker 6: But it was like an eight hour movie. Even a
• 27:53
  Speaker 6: cameo lasted about an hour.
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: That's a good point. That's the point, didn't what's his face?
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: When the best was the Best Picture, Best Director? Kevin Yeah, Carstner,
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: I think he won. I thought it was a good movie,
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: by the way, really did great movie. Yeah, you hate
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: the white guy in that movie. It's very pro Indian.
• 28:16
  Speaker 4: I hate the white guy in the show.
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well it's look in the mirror, my man. Oh no,
