  Pat Gray is here with the latest on the Austin Metcalf murder,
• 0:19
  a really tragic story here in Texas.
• 0:22
  Andrew Cuomo has some trouble heading his way.
• 0:25
  I mean,
• 0:25
  it's not like.
• 0:26
  You know,
• 0:26
  he puts you as an elderly person into a place where uh COVID was active.
• 0:31
  I mean,
• 0:31
  it's not like he did something like that,
• 0:33
  uh,
• 0:33
  but he does have
• 0:34
  some trouble,
• 0:35
  and we'll take a look at the latest problems for Andrew Cuomo,
• 0:38
  but we're gonna start
• 0:38
  by doing Earth Day 2025.
• 0:41
  Yes,
• 0:41
  we're here.
• 0:41
  Did you get your tree?
• 0:42
  Make sure you put your Earth Day tree up every single year.
• 0:45
  That means going out
• 0:46
  and cutting down a young tree.
• 0:48
  That will soon die a painful death,
• 0:51
  and then put it inside your home
• 0:53
  until you're done with it,
• 0:54
  then light it on fire.
• 0:55
  Not inside your home,
• 0:56
  I would take it out first,
• 0:56
  then light it on fire to help the environment,
• 0:58
  help it return to the environment.
• 1:00
  Anything you light on fire,
• 1:02
  returns to the environment and makes it whole.
• 1:04
  Always remember that.
• 1:05
  Uh,
• 1:05
  I will say,
• 1:06
  normally we get a lot of really scary headlines on Earth Day from the media,
• 1:10
  but today we've got one.
• 1:12
  Positive one.
• 1:12
  Here it is for you.
• 1:13
  This Earth Day,
• 1:14
  there are some reasons
• 1:16
  to be hopeful about the climate,
• 1:18
  huh?
• 1:18
  The Washington Post says it's not all doom.
• 1:21
  Innovators are reimagining how we power our lives.
• 1:24
  Nature is pulling off surprising comebacks.
• 1:27
  Cities are cleaner,
• 1:28
  and their air,
• 1:29
  cleaning their air,
• 1:30
  and nations are opening their wallets.
• 1:31
  Well,
• 1:31
  of course,
• 1:32
  obviously spending money is the main way you can help the climate.
• 1:34
  It always is.
• 1:35
  If you ever want to help a climate organization,
• 1:37
  giving them cash is always the best thing you can do.
• 1:39
  But I love the nature is pulling off surprising comebacks.
• 1:42
  It's always surprising.
• 1:43
  We're always shocked when nature does something that
• 1:46
  doesn't like self-immolate.
• 1:49
  It's,
• 1:49
  it's really a surprising
• 1:51
  situation.
• 1:51
  Now,
• 1:52
  of course,
• 1:53
  that's the positive news.
• 1:54
  There is some bad news,
• 1:55
  and if you know there's bad news,
• 1:57
  you know what is the cause of that bad news.
• 1:59
  Obviously.
• 2:01
  Donald Trump,
• 2:02
  right,
• 2:02
  because you have the good news of the climate there,
• 2:04
  but you can't just take it like that.
• 2:05
  You've got to understand that Donald Trump is doing everything he can
• 2:07
  to ruin the environment for you.
• 2:09
  Tariffs will raise prices,
• 2:11
  but the climate crisis
• 2:12
  is the real inflation risk.
• 2:15
  The Trump administration has recently declared a war
• 2:17
  on climate change research inside the federal government
• 2:20
  and the wider US research community,
• 2:22
  as well as doubling down on carbon-based business models.
• 2:25
  But wishing the problem away won't make it disappear.
• 2:28
  The real drivers of future inflation are not just tariffs,
• 2:32
  but the climate crisis and states backing off their decarbonisation efforts.
• 2:36
  Yeah,
• 2:37
  the state is so effective in everything that it does.
• 2:39
  So if it,
• 2:40
  honestly,
• 2:40
  if they honestly try to decarbonate or to
• 2:43
  add more carbon to the atmosphere.
• 2:45
  They probably would fail spectacularly
• 2:48
  and actually wind up getting rid of a bunch of it.
• 2:50
  So maybe they should just try reversing their
• 2:51
  goals because they can't do anything competently.
• 2:53
  Now,
• 2:53
  it's been a long time since,
• 2:55
  uh,
• 2:55
  you know,
• 2:55
  Chevy Chase really was in anything that mattered or was competent.
• 2:59
  Um,
• 3:00
  but his wife apparently has been doing something since the 1980s,
• 3:03
  uh,
• 3:03
  not just Chevy Chase,
• 3:04
  uh,
• 3:05
  but also,
• 3:05
  uh,
• 3:06
  being active with the climate.
• 3:07
  And,
• 3:07
  uh,
• 3:08
  she says,
• 3:08
  I've fought for the climate since the 1980s.
• 3:10
  All I've worked for
• 3:12
  is being undone.
• 3:13
  Doesn't that make you really,
• 3:14
  really sad?
• 3:15
  And you know,
• 3:15
  you might say,
• 3:17
  wow,
• 3:18
  Janie Chase is really having problems,
• 3:20
  we're really sad about her feelings uh there.
• 3:24
  But
• 3:24
  she brought it home in this paragraph,
• 3:26
  I think.
• 3:26
  Would you,
• 3:27
  if you're thinking about the impact,
• 3:28
  what would it be like
• 3:29
  without all of her important climate work?
• 3:32
  Think about this.
• 3:33
  I turned to Chevy the other day and said,
• 3:35
  imagine if all your work just
• 3:37
  vanished.
• 3:38
  Fletch.
• 3:40
  Caddyshack.
• 3:41
  All 4 vacation movies,
• 3:44
  SNL,
• 3:45
  all of it gone,
• 3:46
  no legacy,
• 3:47
  no punchlines,
• 3:48
  no one left quipping,
• 3:49
  I'm Chevy Chase and you're not.
• 3:51
  It's hard not to let that ache
• 3:53
  sink in.
• 3:55
  I will say,
• 3:55
  um.
• 3:57
  Climate activists have plenty of punchlines.
• 3:59
  In fact,
• 4:00
  let's feature some of them right now because it has been
• 4:03
  a period of failure for climate activists that is really,
• 4:07
  really fun and entertaining to watch.
• 4:09
  And that's why on Earth Day we like to go back and look at some of their
• 4:11
  incredible predictions from the past.
• 4:13
  There's one great article AEI put out,
• 4:15
  18 spectacularly wrong predictions
• 4:18
  were made around the first Earth Day in 1970.
• 4:22
  This is Mark J.
• 4:22
  Perry,
• 4:23
  uh,
• 4:23
  by the way,
• 4:23
  and let me give you some highlights because these are always fun to go through.
• 4:27
  How many of them have come true,
• 4:28
  maybe
• 4:28
  all of them have come true.
• 4:30
  That's what we're told basically by the media,
• 4:32
  that they've been predicting this correctly the entire time.
• 4:34
  Let's go back and look
• 4:35
  at the first Earth Day and the time around there to see
• 4:38
  what.
• 4:38
  Exactly
• 4:39
  came true.
• 4:39
  Harvard biologist George Wald estimated that civilization
• 4:43
  will end within 15 or 30 years.
• 4:45
  Hm,
• 4:46
  that would be by 1985 or 2000 for those keeping track at home
• 4:49
  unless immediate action is taken against problems facing mankind.
• 4:53
  Now we definitely did not take the action.
• 4:55
  That they wanted us to take,
• 4:56
  and somehow
• 4:57
  in both 1985 and 2000,
• 5:00
  we still have
• 5:01
  a civilization.
• 5:02
  Who would have seen it coming?
• 5:03
  How about this one?
• 5:04
  Population will inevitably and continually,
• 5:06
  or excuse me,
• 5:06
  and completely outstrip whatever small increases in food supplies we make.
• 5:11
  Paul Ehrlich confidently declared in the April 1970 issue of Mademoiselle.
• 5:15
  Imagine that you're Mademoiselle,
• 5:16
  I don't know what it normally is in there,
• 5:17
  like fashion,
• 5:18
  and you're getting like Paul Ehrlich telling you you're all gonna die.
• 5:20
  The death rate will increase until at least 100 to 200 million people per year
• 5:26
  will be starving to death during the next 10 years by 1980.
• 5:30
  Uh,
• 5:30
  that did not occur,
• 5:32
  shockingly,
• 5:32
  by 1980.
• 5:33
  Uh,
• 5:34
  how about this?
• 5:34
  Most of the people who are going to die in the greatest cataclysm in the history of man
• 5:38
  have already been born,
• 5:40
  wrote Paul Ehrlich in the 1969 essay
• 5:42
  titled
• 5:42
  Eco Catastrophe.
• 5:45
  By 1975,
• 5:46
  some experts feel,
• 5:47
  I love that,
• 5:48
  some
• 5:49
  experts
• 5:51
  feel.
• 5:52
  Not all experts have studies that prove,
• 5:55
  but some
• 5:56
  experts feel
• 5:57
  that food shortages will have escalated to the present level
• 6:01
  of world hunger and starvation into famines and unbelievable proportions.
• 6:05
  Other experts,
• 6:06
  more optimistic,
• 6:07
  think the ultimate food population collision will not occur
• 6:11
  until the decade of the 1980s.
• 6:12
  So there's your split.
• 6:13
  You have some people who say it's going to happen before 1980.
• 6:16
  And some that are say the biggest food cataclysms going to happen in the 1980s.
• 6:20
  You might have noticed we got past both of those decades and
• 6:23
  none of that occurred.
• 6:24
  But there was never even a position.
• 6:26
  It wasn't like,
• 6:26
  look,
• 6:27
  we think there's a real chance that this could happen,
• 6:28
  but it also could be fine.
• 6:30
  That's never,
• 6:30
  it's either a really terrible tragedy or a slightly less terrible tragedy.
• 6:34
  That's it.
• 6:35
  So,
• 6:36
  uh,
• 6:36
  there you go.
• 6:36
  Uh,
• 6:37
  next up,
• 6:37
  Paul Ehrlich again,
• 6:38
  he's kind of the star of this.
• 6:40
  Uh,
• 6:40
  he sketched out his most alarmist scenario of
• 6:42
  the 1970 Earth Day issue of the Progressive,
• 6:44
  assuring readers
• 6:46
  that between 1980 and 1989,
• 6:48
  some 4 billion people,
• 6:50
  including 65 million Americans,
• 6:52
  would perish
• 6:54
  in the great
• 6:55
  die-off.
• 6:57
  Now you want to talk about a fun event to attend year after year after year,
• 7:00
  the Great Die-offf.
• 7:02
  Uh,
• 7:03
  I don't remember 65 million people dying in
• 7:04
  the Great Die-off or 4 billion people worldwide.
• 7:08
  Um,
• 7:08
  people do die of old age,
• 7:09
  but of course we've seen,
• 7:10
  um,
• 7:11
  uh,
• 7:11
  all those numbers go in the right direction,
• 7:13
  largely.
• 7:14
  Um,
• 7:14
  it's already too late to avoid mass starvation,
• 7:17
  says Dennis Hayes,
• 7:18
  chief organizer of Earth Day
• 7:20
  in spring 1970.
• 7:22
  Is it too late to avoid mass starvation?
• 7:24
  Well,
• 7:24
  Peter Gunter,
• 7:25
  a North Texas State University professor,
• 7:27
  wrote in 1970,
• 7:28
  demographers agree
• 7:30
  almost unanimously
• 7:31
  on the following grim timetable.
• 7:34
  By 1975,
• 7:35
  widespread famines will begin in India.
• 7:37
  These will spread by 1990 to include all of India,
• 7:40
  Pakistan,
• 7:40
  China,
• 7:41
  and the Near East,
• 7:42
  Africa.
• 7:43
  By the year 2000,
• 7:44
  or conceivably sooner,
• 7:46
  South and Central America will exist under famine conditions.
• 7:50
  By the year 2000,
• 7:51
  30 years from now,
• 7:52
  the entire world,
• 7:53
  with the exception of Western Europe,
• 7:55
  North America,
• 7:56
  and Australia will be in famine.
• 7:57
  Well,
• 7:58
  the entire world,
• 7:58
  that would include Antarctica,
• 8:00
  and no one
• 8:01
  lives there.
• 8:02
  Think about it.
• 8:03
  Because of the climate
• 8:04
  and hunger and stuff,
• 8:06
  nobody lives in Antarctica.
• 8:08
  Think about that.
• 8:09
  By the way,
• 8:09
  none of that happened.
• 8:10
  Um,
• 8:11
  there wasn't widespread famines.
• 8:12
  The only famines that really happened in this period
• 8:14
  happened a little bit earlier with China and Mao.
• 8:16
  Uh,
• 8:17
  that happened.
• 8:18
  There have been famines,
• 8:19
  most of them human caused,
• 8:20
  having nothing to do with the climate,
• 8:22
  making it impossible to grow things.
• 8:24
  In January 1970,
• 8:25
  Life reported
• 8:27
  scientists have solid experimental and theoretical
• 8:29
  evidence to support the following predictions.
• 8:32
  In a decade,
• 8:32
  urban dwellers will have to wear gas masks to survive air pollution.
• 8:37
  And by 1985,
• 8:38
  air pollution will be reduced to half the amount of sunlight reaching the Earth.
• 8:43
  Um,
• 8:43
  think about that for a second.
• 8:44
  Half the sunlight
• 8:46
  reaching the Earth,
• 8:47
  just gone.
• 8:47
  Now I had this experience today where I went outside
• 8:50
  and uh it seemed pretty normal.
• 8:53
  Wasn't dark,
• 8:54
  wasn't half the sunlight,
• 8:56
  just a normal amount of sunlight that's been
• 8:58
  every single day.
• 8:59
  What's fascinating about this is how often they say the same stuff,
• 9:02
  right?
• 9:02
  They're always predicting the worst cataclysms over and over and over again,
• 9:05
  and there's never like a punishment.
• 9:07
  There's never like a,
• 9:08
  gosh,
• 9:08
  we really blew that one.
• 9:10
  There's never a,
• 9:10
  I can't believe how embarrassed I am that I said those things.
• 9:13
  That,
• 9:13
  that never happens.
• 9:14
  No one ever follows up and asks them about this.
• 9:17
  Barry Commoner predicted that decaying organic pollutants would use
• 9:21
  up all of the oxygen in America's rivers,
• 9:24
  causing freshwater fish to suffocate.
• 9:26
  My understanding is fish have not all.
• 9:30
  Started to suffocate yet.
• 9:31
  They're just kind of still swimming around like normal.
• 9:35
  Paul Ehrlich again chimed in,
• 9:36
  predicting in 1970 that air pollution is certainly going to take
• 9:40
  hundreds of thousands of lives in the next few years alone.
• 9:43
  Ehrlich sketched a scenario in which 200,000
• 9:45
  Americans would die in 1973 during smog disasters
• 9:50
  in New York and Los Angeles.
• 9:51
  Don't remember those.
• 9:52
  Do you remember the smog disasters?
• 9:54
  Now it's been a little foggy there,
• 9:56
  a little smoggy at times.
• 9:57
  The traffic kind of sucks.
• 9:59
  The people can be really annoying at times in Los Angeles,
• 10:01
  but I don't remember any smog disasters killing 200,000 of them.
• 10:05
  Maybe that's just me.
• 10:06
  Paul Ehrlich warned in the May 1970 issue
• 10:08
  of Autobahn that DDT and other chlorinated hydrocarbons
• 10:12
  may have substantially
• 10:15
  reduced the life expectancy of people born since 1945.
• 10:18
  Ehrlich warned that Americans born since 1946 now had a life expectancy of only
• 10:23
  49 years,
• 10:25
  and he predicted that if current patterns continued.
• 10:28
  Life expectancy would reach 42 years by 1980 when it might level out.
• 10:33
  One thing you always get from these,
• 10:35
  uh,
• 10:35
  quotes and articles from environmentalists is a phrase that
• 10:38
  you'll hear over and over and over again,
• 10:40
  and you can never actually take seriously,
• 10:41
  which is,
• 10:42
  uh,
• 10:43
  if current patterns patterns continue.
• 10:46
  Because that never seems to happen.
• 10:48
  The current patterns don't continue.
• 10:49
  It's almost like the Earth isn't trying to commit suicide all the time.
• 10:53
  Um,
• 10:53
  but they say,
• 10:54
  uh,
• 10:54
  life expectancy is 42 years,
• 10:56
  which is,
• 10:56
  wow,
• 10:57
  I'm impressive because,
• 10:58
  uh,
• 10:58
  I'm already 40,
• 11:00
  what's today's date?
• 11:01
  We're 2025,
• 11:02
  49.
• 11:03
  I'm 49.
• 11:03
  I've already
• 11:04
  lived out past my life expectancy
• 11:06
  because it evened out at 42,
• 11:08
  if you remember correctly.
• 11:10
  Ecologist Kenneth Watt declared,
• 11:12
  by the year 2000,
• 11:13
  if present trends continue,
• 11:15
  if present trends
• 11:17
  continue,
• 11:18
  we'll be using up crude oil at such a rate that there won't be any more crude oil.
• 11:22
  You'll drive up to the pump and say,
• 11:24
  fill her up,
• 11:25
  buddy,
• 11:26
  and he'll say,
• 11:27
  I'm very sorry,
• 11:28
  there isn't any.
• 11:30
  Now we have had some supply chain disruptions
• 11:32
  and we have had a bunch of environmentalists trying
• 11:34
  to make it so we can't drill our own oil so that we can't have any.
• 11:38
  Uh,
• 11:38
  gasoline,
• 11:39
  but
• 11:39
  generally speaking,
• 11:40
  that's been the only real threat on that one.
• 11:42
  Harrison Brown,
• 11:42
  a scientist at the National Academy of Sciences,
• 11:45
  published a chart in Scientific American that looked at metal reserves
• 11:48
  and estimated that humanity would have totally run out of copper
• 11:52
  shortly after 2000.
• 11:54
  Lead,
• 11:54
  zinc,
• 11:55
  tin,
• 11:55
  gold,
• 11:55
  and silver would be gone
• 11:57
  before 1990.
• 11:59
  It's weird,
• 11:59
  all those things still exist.
• 12:00
  In fact,
• 12:01
  I could still get zinc
• 12:02
  at CVS for like 9000 tablets for $4.
• 12:05
  Uh,
• 12:06
  lead,
• 12:06
  tin,
• 12:07
  gold all still exist.
• 12:08
  Uh,
• 12:08
  copper still exists.
• 12:10
  Silver,
• 12:11
  uh,
• 12:11
  also
• 12:12
  still exists.
• 12:13
  That's your update.
• 12:14
  Senator Gaylord Nelson wrote in Look,
• 12:17
  Doctor S.
• 12:17
  Dylan Ripley,
• 12:18
  secretary of the Smithsonian Institute,
• 12:19
  believes
• 12:20
  that in 25 years,
• 12:22
  somewhere between 75 and 80% of all the species
• 12:25
  of living animals
• 12:26
  will.
• 12:27
  extinct.
• 12:27
  Well,
• 12:27
  uh,
• 12:28
  Doctor S.
• 12:29
  Dylan Ripley might believe that,
• 12:31
  but he is wrong.
• 12:32
  Is he still alive?
• 12:33
  Does anyone know?
• 12:33
  Is S.
• 12:34
  Dylan Ripley still alive?
• 12:36
  If so,
• 12:37
  maybe he'll come on the show and,
• 12:38
  and,
• 12:38
  and try to answer whether,
• 12:40
  uh,
• 12:40
  75 and 80% of all the species have gone extinct yet.
• 12:43
  Because I feel like we still have a lot of them.
• 12:45
  Kenneth Watt also warned about a pending ice age in a speech.
• 12:48
  The world has been chilling sharply for about 20 years,
• 12:50
  he declared.
• 12:51
  If
• 12:52
  present
• 12:53
  trends
• 12:55
  continue,
• 12:55
  the world will be about 4 degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990,
• 13:00
  but 11 degrees colder in the year 2000.
• 13:02
  This is about twice as what it would take
• 13:04
  to put us into an ice age,
• 13:05
  and over and over and over and on and on and on and on and on.
• 13:08
  There's no shortage of these things.
• 13:10
  They predicted this constantly,
• 13:11
  and that was kind of the first
• 13:12
  Earth Day pitch.
• 13:14
  The first Earth Day pitch was not about global warming.
• 13:16
  In fact,
• 13:16
  they were praying for global warming,
• 13:18
  praying to probably some God that doesn't exist,
• 13:20
  but
• 13:21
  they were praying nonetheless.
• 13:22
  They were saying,
• 13:22
  oh yes,
• 13:24
  please bring us global warming because
• 13:26
  we are going into a period of another ice age.
• 13:28
  The pitch at the time was global cooling.
• 13:31
  That was the issue,
• 13:31
  that was the thing you're supposed to be concerned about,
• 13:34
  global
• 13:35
  cooling.
• 13:35
  And that just switched over time,
• 13:37
  and no one seemed to matter,
• 13:38
  no one seemed to notice,
• 13:39
  no one seemed to care
• 13:40
  that they were telling us one thing a little while
• 13:42
  ago and now are telling us the exact opposite.
• 13:44
  Now they're saying global warming
• 13:46
  is the concern.
• 13:47
  And I don't know,
• 13:48
  maybe we shouldn't be all that surprised,
• 13:50
  considering how Earth Day began.
• 13:52
  This is back again in 1970.
• 13:54
  The Earth Day co-founder
• 13:56
  actually killed and composted his girlfriend.
• 14:00
  Ira Einhorn was on stage hosting the first Earth Day event.
• 14:03
  At the Paramount Park in Philadelphia,
• 14:06
  April 22,
• 14:07
  1970,
• 14:08
  7 years later,
• 14:10
  police rallied,
• 14:11
  uh,
• 14:11
  uh,
• 14:12
  raided his closet and found the composted body of his ex-girlfriend
• 14:16
  inside a trunk.
• 14:17
  Here's the quote.
• 14:18
  Investigators searched
• 14:19
  Ira Einhorn's apartment after one of his
• 14:21
  neighbors complained that a reddish brown,
• 14:23
  foul smelling liquid,
• 14:25
  uh,
• 14:26
  was leaking from the ceiling directly below Einhorn's bedroom closet.
• 14:30
  Inside the closet,
• 14:31
  police found Einrohn's,
• 14:32
  uh,
• 14:33
  girlfriend Helen,
• 14:34
  uh,
• 14:34
  Maddox beaten and partially mummified body
• 14:37
  stuffed into a trunk
• 14:39
  that had also been packed with Styrofoam,
• 14:40
  air fresheners,
• 14:42
  and newspapers.
• 14:42
  I mean,
• 14:42
  at the very least,
• 14:43
  it's nice that he kept the air fresh.
• 14:45
  Uh,
• 14:45
  that's of course a positive,
• 14:46
  and he was keeping up on the daily headlines
• 14:48
  while he was composting his girlfriend,
• 14:50
  and I think we can all look back at that
• 14:52
  with some real admiration.
• 14:53
  So this
• 14:54
  event was started by a person who was a murderer and not a good guy in any way.
• 14:59
  It was filled with so many lies that they had to switch from global cooling to global
• 15:04
  warming in the interim to try to keep it convincing.
• 15:07
  And the fact that we've now had about one degree of warming
• 15:09
  over a century is not something I'm all that worked up about.
• 15:11
  And frankly,
• 15:12
  I think we could do a lot better job focusing on the things we can control.
• 15:15
  We can control,
• 15:16
  for example,
• 15:17
  our energy
• 15:18
  resources.
• 15:19
  We can make sure that we have the energy that we need
• 15:21
  to
• 15:22
  condition homes and their air.
• 15:24
  It's called air conditioning,
• 15:26
  and when you have it,
• 15:27
  you're able to keep the temperature kind of at whatever you want.
• 15:30
  That's kind of the great thing about American
• 15:32
  life and the civilization that we've built here
• 15:34
  that.
• 15:35
  You no longer have to worry about being outside when it's 115 degrees or 12 degrees.
• 15:40
  You get to either heat or cool your home.
• 15:43
  You get to drive to places that you want to go,
• 15:45
  you get to move around on airplanes,
• 15:46
  you get to take vacations to places that you want to visit.
• 15:49
  All these things are some of the charm of human life,
• 15:51
  right?
• 15:52
  And of course,
• 15:53
  what do you get from the Earth Day fanatics that you're not supposed to do any of them.
• 15:57
  That's one of the the the strangest things about all of this.
• 16:00
  Environmentalists are always trying to tell us,
• 16:02
  hey,
• 16:02
  you know,
• 16:02
  you can't do this,
• 16:03
  you can't do that,
• 16:04
  you can't have your big screen TV,
• 16:05
  you can't go on fun trips,
• 16:06
  you can't
• 16:07
  enjoy life.
• 16:09
  That's never going to work with the American people.
• 16:11
  The American people want to enjoy their life.
• 16:14
  We've worked really hard to build a country that gives us those opportunities,
• 16:17
  and,
• 16:18
  you know,
• 16:18
  frankly,
• 16:18
  #1,
• 16:19
  I don't feel all that bad about it.
• 16:20
  I feel good about it.
• 16:22
  That's 1.
• 16:22
  Number 2,
• 16:23
  it's important for us to kind of revisit these things and remember
• 16:26
  how wrong these people are so we don't listen to them again.
• 16:29
  The the same people,
• 16:31
  a lot of these people still have jobs,
• 16:32
  are still working in the academic field,
• 16:34
  still publishing
• 16:35
  data
• 16:35
  that we're supposed to look at and care about.
• 16:38
  Well,
• 16:38
  I don't care about what Paul Ehrlich says.
• 16:40
  I don't care what these people say anymore.
• 16:42
  You have a situation where the American people
• 16:45
  are worried about the economy,
• 16:47
  they're worried about the,
• 16:48
  the culture,
• 16:49
  they're worried about the border.
• 16:50
  There's a lot to worry about in this country.
• 16:52
  Worrying about a 1 degree temperature rise over a century
• 16:56
  seems to me to be a tad misguided at this point.
• 16:59
  I want to get into this and so much more with Pat Gray.
• 17:01
  He joins us next.
• 17:13
  Have you checked out the latest housing news?
• 17:15
  It turns out that selling a home in 2025
• 17:16
  is officially about as enjoyable as filing your taxes.
• 17:20
  Who saw that coming?
• 17:21
  Buying or selling a home is not just stressful,
• 17:23
  it is one of the biggest financial moves you will ever make.
• 17:25
  And the last thing.
• 17:26
  That you need is an agent who spends
• 17:28
  more time posting selfies than actually selling houses.
• 17:31
  Real estate agents ITrust.com fixes this problem for you.
• 17:35
  They can connect you with the best agents in your town,
• 17:37
  and these are professionals who
• 17:39

  and yeah,
• 17:44
  they're trustworthy.
• 17:45
  Essentially they're the complete.
• 17:46
  Opposite of whoever's writing today's news headlines,
• 17:49
  if you are buying or you're selling or you're even doing both at the same time,
• 17:53
  which oftentimes you are,
• 17:54
  save yourself some trouble and get an agent who knows what they're doing.
• 17:57
  It's real estate agents ITrust.com.

• 18:03
  by the way,
• 18:04
  Real Estate agents ITrust.com.
• 18:09
  I'm joined once again by Pat Gray.
• 18:10
  He's the host
• 18:11
  of Pat Gray Unleashed.
• 18:13
  Who would have guessed that?
• 18:14
  When you hear the name of the show,
• 18:15
  how would you know
• 18:16
  who the host was?
• 18:17
  You wouldn't.
• 18:18
  You wouldn't,
• 18:18
  you'd have no idea.
• 18:19
  But that's who it is.
• 18:20
  It's Pat Gray.
• 18:20
  He's right here on Blaze TV.
• 18:22
  He's also the purveyor of delicious Key cookies,
• 18:25
  uh,
• 18:25
  which you can get at kexie.com,
• 18:27
  K E K.
• 18:28
  KSI.com.
• 18:29
  I did mention this on radio,
• 18:30
  but I will reiterate that my son,
• 18:32
  who is a carrot cake fiend,
• 18:34
  loves the carrot cake.
• 18:35
  Anytime he can get carrot cake,
• 18:37
  had one of the carrot cake cookies,
• 18:38
  which I guess are available still at kexy.com.
• 18:41
  Yes,
• 18:41
  they are.
• 18:41
  Loved it.
• 18:42
  I love that.
• 18:43
  I love that he loved it.
• 18:44
  Yeah,
• 18:44
  I really do.
• 18:45
  And it's good for you.
• 18:47
  It's,
• 18:48
  it is a cookie that's actually good for you.
• 18:50
  It's got carrot pieces in it.
• 18:53
  Well,
• 18:53
  yes,
• 18:53
  it does,
• 18:54
  but I don't,
• 18:54
  so,
• 18:55
  yeah,
• 18:55
  it's actually good for you.
• 18:56
  Really?
• 18:57
  Yeah.
• 18:58
  There's also a really good one
• 18:59
  that's coming out,
• 19:00
  I think for Mother's Day,
• 19:01
  or maybe it,
• 19:02
  maybe it's Father's Day.
• 19:03
  It's,
• 19:04
  uh,
• 19:04
  it's a,
• 19:05
  it's a peanut butter and of course you can't
• 19:07
  have it because it's got marshmallow in it.
• 19:09
  Um,
• 19:10
  but it's marshmallow all through it.
• 19:12
  That's actually good for you as well.
• 19:14
  Really?
• 19:14
  That one,
• 19:15
  now the carrot one,
• 19:16
  there was at least an argument.
• 19:16
  I don't see how.
• 19:18
  No,
• 19:18
  the marshmallow is really good for you,
• 19:19
  you won't eat it,
• 19:20
  but it's,
• 19:21
  I understand that there are scientists in Norway who say marshmallow.
• 19:26
  Builds
• 19:28
  bodies 10 different ways.
• 19:30
  Like Wonder Bread used to,
• 19:31
  but now,
• 19:32
  but now marshmallow.
• 19:33
  Now it's marshmallow based.
• 19:34
  Yeah.
• 19:35
  I will say peanut butter.
• 19:36
  A lot of places say you should have peanut butter for health or something.
• 19:38
  Yeah.
• 19:39
  You get I've had the peanut butter cookies from Caxi,
• 19:41
  they don't seem
• 19:42
  like necessarily
• 19:43
  the central part of a diet,
• 19:46
  right?
• 19:47
  And I don't know if you want to make it the central part of your diet,
• 19:50
  but,
• 19:50
  um,
• 19:51
  just 3 or 4 a day.
• 19:52
  You don't want to do more than 3 or 4 full cookies a day.
• 19:55
  No,
• 19:55
  I mean,
• 19:56
  unless it's a special occasion.
• 19:58
  Then you could go with more.
• 19:59
  Yeah,
• 19:59
  like a Thursday or something,
• 20:01
  right,
• 20:01
  yeah,
• 20:02
  that would be fine,
• 20:03
  but definitely not more than that on a normal day.
• 20:05
  I,
• 20:05
  I,
• 20:05
  I would like to talk about cookies this entire conversation,
• 20:08
  but we need to get to something very important.
• 20:09
  OK.
• 20:11
  This Maryland father
• 20:13
  who was abducted
• 20:15
  from his,
• 20:16
  his home,
• 20:17
  um,
• 20:18
  where he was,
• 20:18
  he was in a,
• 20:19
  in a wonderful relationship with his wife.
• 20:22
  Uh,
• 20:22
  he was sent to adores him.
• 20:24
  She adores him.
• 20:25
  And he,
• 20:25
  her.
• 20:26
  And he,
• 20:26
  her.
• 20:26
  They have 3 children,
• 20:27
  Pat.
• 20:28
  And they're handicapped.
• 20:30
  They're handicapped.
• 20:31
  Yeah,
• 20:31
  and that's right.
• 20:32
  And you know,
• 20:33
  the,
• 20:33
  the left cares so much about the,
• 20:35
  the sanctity of fatherhood.
• 20:37
  They've been,
• 20:37
  you know,
• 20:38
  they've been so key in maintaining,
• 20:40
  uh,
• 20:40
  that relationship between fathers and that nuclear family.
• 20:44
  That's what they care about.
• 20:46
  They really do.
• 20:46
  And here
• 20:47
  we have the Trump administration breaking up
• 20:50
  a family unit.
• 20:52
  Despicable.
• 20:52
  Dividing a family.
• 20:54
  Despicable.
• 20:55
  To send him to El Salvador because he had a tattoo on his finger or something.
• 20:59
  I mean,
• 20:59
  this is shocking.
• 21:00
  That's,
• 21:01
  that's my understanding of the story.
• 21:02
  Was that,
• 21:02
  is that the right way to think of it?
• 21:03
  Yes,
• 21:03
  uh,
• 21:04
  it is the right way to put it.
• 21:05
  And,
• 21:05
  uh,
• 21:06
  I,
• 21:06
  I,
• 21:07
  I understand he also ran an orphanage.
• 21:09
  He did.
• 21:10
  Yeah,
• 21:10
  he didn't run an orphanage and,
• 21:12
  uh,
• 21:12
  he cooked meals for,
• 21:14
  uh,
• 21:14
  one-legged homeless veterans in the afternoon.
• 21:17
  Did he really?
• 21:18
  Yeah,
• 21:18
  yeah.
• 21:19
  And,
• 21:19
  uh.
• 21:20
  And he was torn away from all of that.
• 21:24
  I mean this is really how it's presented,
• 21:26
  you know,
• 21:27
  and I had concerns about it.
• 21:29
  I,
• 21:29
  I'm not a left-wing kook.
• 21:31
  I,
• 21:32
  I did have concerns about,
• 21:34
  um,
• 21:34
  because they said they made a mistake in the beginning.
• 21:37
  Right,
• 21:37
  well,
• 21:37
  and they did,
• 21:38
  they,
• 21:38
  they still say they made a mistake in sending him to the El Salvador
• 21:42
  prison because that was the one place they weren't supposed to send him,
• 21:44
  I guess.
• 21:45
  And somewhere else in the world would have been fine.
• 21:47
  They weren't supposed to send him there because of a previous court ruling.
• 21:49
  And I wanted him deported too.
• 21:50
  If you're,
• 21:50
  if you're here illegally.
• 21:52
  You need to be deported.
• 21:53
  I'm,
• 21:54
  I'm all about that.
• 21:55
  But,
• 21:56
  you know,
• 21:56
  if there's,
• 21:57
  if there's a problem,
• 21:58
  let's fix the problem and then let's deport him.
• 22:00
  But,
• 22:00
  um,
• 22:01
  you know,
• 22:01
  there's been so much that's come out since I,
• 22:03
  I was
• 22:04
  hoping for more information to come out on this guy.
• 22:06
  More information has come out on him.
• 22:09
  You know,
• 22:09
  the restraining order that his wife took out on him and all of that,
• 22:13
  and he,
• 22:14
  that the domestic violence.
• 22:16
  It was based on domestic violence,
• 22:17
  allegedly.
• 22:18
  And
• 22:19
  she wouldn't even answer the question when she was asked about it.
• 22:23
  Her answer was when she was asked point blank if she was afraid of him,
• 22:27
  she said,
• 22:28
  Well,
• 22:29
  he's alive and that's all I can say.
• 22:33
  He's a little lie.
• 22:34
  It's a weird response.
• 22:35
  a weird response.
• 22:37
  So,
• 22:38
  yeah,
• 22:38
  I've kind of lost my sympathy for him
• 22:40
  and,
• 22:41
  uh,
• 22:42
  kind of OK that he's,
• 22:44
  I mean,
• 22:44
  I don't know that you go directly to COT,
• 22:47
  but,
• 22:47
  um.
• 22:49
  I guess that's up to El Salvador,
• 22:50
  right?
• 22:51
  I,
• 22:51
  I guess it is.
• 22:52
  And the question,
• 22:53
  I guess,
• 22:53
  and I think
• 22:54
  I'm stating this correctly,
• 22:55
  correct me if I'm wrong,
• 22:56
  but like your concern at the beginning,
• 22:58
  which is a concern that I would share as well,
• 23:01
  is
• 23:02
  do we know for a fact he was actually in MS-13?
• 23:06
  Do we know,
• 23:06
  is there enough evidence that he was
• 23:09
  in these groups?
• 23:10
  Now I think since the initial reporting.
• 23:13
  I've seen some stuff that doesn't really convince me of that,
• 23:16
  um,
• 23:17
  but overall
• 23:18
  I think I would lean that he was,
• 23:20
  right?
• 23:20
  Like it does I'm leaning now.
• 23:22
  We have a source,
• 23:23
  a confidential source who said he was an MS-13.
• 23:26
  He was arrested with multiple members
• 23:28
  of MS-13.
• 23:29
  How many times
• 23:30
  has that happened to you,
• 23:31
  Patty,
• 23:31
  when you were?
• 23:32
  Oh man.
• 23:33
  Well,
• 23:33
  when I go to Home Depot.
• 23:34
  Yeah.
• 23:35
  A lot of times I'll be arrested with a group of guys,
• 23:37
  and some of them occasionally
• 23:40
  are MS-13 members.
• 23:42
  So it does happen.
• 23:43
  Uh,
• 23:43
  it does.
• 23:43
  It could be a coincidence.
• 23:44
  There was one time where there was a few MS-13 and a few Bloods and Crips,
• 23:49
  and I was arrested with those guys.
• 23:51
  Uh,
• 23:51
  but,
• 23:51
  uh,
• 23:52
  sometimes it's trende Aragua.
• 23:54
  Yes,
• 23:54
  every once in a while.
• 23:56
  Um,
• 23:56
  but,
• 23:57
  um,
• 23:58
  it's a lot.
• 23:58
  I mean,
• 23:59
  it's a lot.
• 24:00
  There's a lot going on there.
• 24:02
  There's not a conversation here,
• 24:03
  and correct me if I'm wrong,
• 24:04
  but there's not a conversation here as to whether he's
• 24:06
  going to come back and live in the United States.
• 24:08
  Like,
• 24:09
  even if they did,
• 24:10
  and I look,
• 24:10
  we could obviously pressure
• 24:12
  El Salvador and make them send him back.
• 24:14
  There's no question we could do that if we really wanted to.
• 24:16
  We don't want to,
• 24:17
  but even if he did come back,
• 24:18
  we would just immediately send him somewhere else,
• 24:20
  right?
• 24:21
  Yes,
• 24:21
  I think so.
• 24:22
  But it does seem like.
• 24:24
  The left wants him to come back and he want,
• 24:26
  they want him to live in Maryland with his wife,
• 24:28
  I guess,
• 24:29
  because they don't care about women anymore.
• 24:31
  So
• 24:32
  let's not protect her either.
• 24:34
  His wife is probably terrorized by this possibility,
• 24:37
  probably,
• 24:38
  but can't really say that.
• 24:39
  I mean,
• 24:39
  I haven't seen a lot from her other than
• 24:42
  he's alive
• 24:43
  and that's all she can say.
• 24:44
  That's about all I've seen her say on this thing.
• 24:47
  And you would think if she was really upset about it,
• 24:50
  she'd be on a lot.
• 24:51
  And I know MSNBC and CNN would have her on.
• 24:55
  So
• 24:56
  I don't know,
• 24:57
  but if he is a gang member,
• 24:58
  she'd be terrified by by coming out and speaking out and saying,
• 25:01
  yes,
• 25:01
  I'm glad he's gone.
• 25:03
  So we don't really know the truth there.
• 25:04
  Let me go to another one because this is um
• 25:07
  the left has this tendency.
• 25:08
  We talked a little bit about it on radio today,
• 25:10
  but I think it's somewhat new in that
• 25:11
  they used to select really.
• 25:15
  sympathetic
• 25:16
  characters for their causes.
• 25:17
  Like if you're going to go to illegal immigrants,
• 25:19
  you're going to find the most sympathetic illegal immigrant,
• 25:20
  someone who's got trouble at home and and and is
• 25:23
  a mom and has children and is an upstanding citizen,
• 25:27
  works at the church or whatever,
• 25:28
  they'd always find the most sympathetic person.
• 25:30
  They seem to have abandoned that.
• 25:32
  This guy who's in a gang,
• 25:33
  and,
• 25:33
  and potentially MS-13,
• 25:35
  uh,
• 25:35
  beat his wife.
• 25:36
  He's now the hero of the left.
• 25:38
  And then there's Carmelo Anthony,
• 25:39
  not the basketball player,
• 25:41
  but Carmelo Anthony,
• 25:42
  the,
• 25:42
  uh,
• 25:43
  the track,
• 25:43
  uh,
• 25:44
  athlete apparently here in the Texas area,
• 25:46
  um,
• 25:47
  in,
• 25:47
  in Fresco,
• 25:48
  right?
• 25:48
  It was in Frisco,
• 25:49
  Texas,
• 25:49
  which is a nearby suburb,
• 25:50
  a nice suburb
• 25:51
  of Dallas.
• 25:54
  He went to a track meet,
• 25:56
  uh,
• 25:56
  he had some sort of confrontation which seemed
• 25:58
  to be very minor about whether he should
• 26:00
  leave a tent
• 26:01
  and then decided to stab a person in the heart,
• 26:04
  a kid,
• 26:05
  and kill him.
• 26:07
  He's now the new sympathetic character on the left.
• 26:09
  Yeah.
• 26:10
  Um,
• 26:11
  I don't,
• 26:11
  I don't know how they've taken up his cause now,
• 26:14
  um,
• 26:15
  but
• 26:16
  right away,
• 26:17
  he became the victim there somehow.
• 26:19
  How?
• 26:20
  I.
• 26:21
  It's inconceivable to me.
• 26:23
  I,
• 26:23
  I don't understand it
• 26:25
  because,
• 26:25
  um,
• 26:26
  you know,
• 26:26
  I guess because he's black.
• 26:28
  And
• 26:29
  the victim in this case is white.
• 26:32
  So they've just switched the victim to the black guy and
• 26:37
  the perpetrator's the white guy.
• 26:38
  I,
• 26:39
  it doesn't make any sense.
• 26:42
  Uh,
• 26:42
  and,
• 26:43
  you know,
• 26:43
  even he
• 26:44
  asked the police as he was being arrested if it would qualify
• 26:48
  as self-defense.
• 26:50
  Because
• 26:51
  he was asked to leave,
• 26:52
  I guess.
• 26:54
  And he apparently
• 26:56
  Uh,
• 26:57
  apparently said,
• 26:58
  touch me and see what happens.
• 27:00
  And I think according to
• 27:02
  witnesses,
• 27:03
  um,
• 27:04
  Austin Metcalf,
• 27:05
  who was the white kid that got stabbed,
• 27:07
  did in fact touch him,
• 27:08
  didn't hit him,
• 27:10
  wasn't violent,
• 27:11
  but
• 27:11
  like touched him on the shoulder or his backpack or something and then he.
• 27:16
  He saw what happened.
• 27:17
  He got stabbed in the heart for it.
• 27:18
  Yeah,
• 27:19
  unbelievable.
• 27:20
  Absolutely unbelievable.
• 27:21
  I,
• 27:21
  I don't,
• 27:22
  uh,
• 27:23
  it's,
• 27:24
  it's perplexing that this would happen.
• 27:25
  What do you make of this,
• 27:26
  um,
• 27:27
  spokesperson for the,
• 27:28
  for Carmelo Anthony's family?
• 27:30
  He's like a,
• 27:32
  uh,
• 27:33
  felon
• 27:34
  baby
• 27:35
  Al Sharpton
• 27:37
  kind of yeah,
• 27:37
  because he has some criminal history,
• 27:39
  right?
• 27:39
  Yeah,
• 27:39
  he does and um.
• 27:42
  Uh,
• 27:42
  yeah,
• 27:43
  he's got an unsavory past and
• 27:46
  he,
• 27:47
  what's interesting about what he did at this press conference was that
• 27:51
  Austin Metcalf's father showed up at the press conference
• 27:56
  and they decided he wasn't supposed to be there and so they told him to leave,
• 28:02
  which is the exact scenario
• 28:04
  that his son was in,
• 28:05
  in that tent where they asked him to leave.
• 28:09
  And he saw fit to stab somebody over it.
• 28:12
  Um,
• 28:13
  but,
• 28:14
  he did leave.
• 28:15
  There was no violence there.
• 28:17
  Um,
• 28:18
  Austin Metcalf's son or father.
• 28:23
  doesn't seem like he's even trying to create any sort of division.
• 28:27
  In fact,
• 28:28
  in the very beginning,
• 28:29
  he said,
• 28:30
  Uh,
• 28:31
  that you shouldn't make this a racial issue.
• 28:32
  It's not about that,
• 28:34
  and he forgave the kid
• 28:37
  immediately,
• 28:38
  uh,
• 28:38
  and now this,
• 28:40
  this spokesperson they have is,
• 28:43
  um,
• 28:44
  is trying to make it a racial issue.
• 28:46
  And he's trying to make the only place they can go though,
• 28:47
  to be fair.
• 28:48
  Like there's no,
• 28:49
  it's not like they have a,
• 28:50
  a,
• 28:50
  a,
• 28:50
  a,
• 28:50
  a defense on,
• 28:52
  hey,
• 28:52
  well,
• 28:52
  actually he was in,
• 28:54
  his life was in danger and that's why he did this.
• 28:56
  This is just straight out.
• 28:57
  Like,
• 28:57
  if we get
• 28:58
  MSNBC upset that it's racism,
• 29:00
  maybe we can get out of this.
• 29:01
  Right?
• 29:02
  So
• 29:02
  that doesn't seem to be flying with most people in Texas.
• 29:05
  And the other thing,
• 29:06
  so they're,
• 29:06
  they're trying now to blame it on the school
• 29:08
  system because they held the track meet despite the rain
• 29:11
  that day.
• 29:12
  Uh,
• 29:13
  and so I guess,
• 29:14
  yeah,
• 29:14
  the rain.
• 29:15
  They held a track meet in the rain.
• 29:17
  Why would that track meet shouldn't have happened.
• 29:19
  And if the track meet wouldn't have happened,
• 29:21
  the stabbing wouldn't have occurred?
• 29:23
  I guess,
• 29:24
  I mean,
• 29:24
  I guess that is true.
• 29:25
  Yeah,
• 29:26
  it's a great defense,
• 29:28
  isn't it though?
• 29:29
  It really is.
• 29:31
  Yeah.
• 29:31
  And you know,
• 29:31
  it's not always race as well.
• 29:33
  It's also with the United Healthcare murder,
• 29:36
  um,
• 29:36
  uh,
• 29:36
  the same thing,
• 29:37
  like I,
• 29:38
  I don't know because he's,
• 29:39
  I guess they think he's good looking.
• 29:41
  He,
• 29:42
  or like there's some,
• 29:43
  they think there's some argument here that maybe you should be
• 29:45
  able to kill healthcare CEOs because they denied a claim once.
• 29:48
  I,
• 29:48
  I don't know what
• 29:50
  the,
• 29:50
  the,
• 29:50
  they are not taking the most,
• 29:52
  um,
• 29:53
  The best examples anymore of their causes.
• 29:55
  They've gone this other way of like,
• 29:57
  hey,
• 29:57
  here are horrible examples.
• 29:59
  It's almost like that,
• 29:59
  that idea of,
• 30:00
  you know,
• 30:00
  that quote attributed to Hitler of like the bigger the lie.
• 30:03
  It's like,
• 30:04
  it's like the worse the person,
• 30:05
  like the more it's going to challenge you,
• 30:07
  that would show that you're a true believer.
• 30:09
  If you back us on this,
• 30:11
  you'll back us on anything.
• 30:12
  Yeah,
• 30:13
  and
• 30:14
  um,
• 30:15
  according to reports that I've heard,
• 30:17
  there wasn't even really a problem with the coverage.
• 30:19
  Yeah.
• 30:20
  That this guy had,
• 30:21
  it wasn't even about that.
• 30:22
  It wasn't even about that.
• 30:24
  It was just,
• 30:24
  it was just that he was a UHC CEO.
• 30:27
  It was a generalized
• 30:29
  complaint about healthcare that he couldn't even articulate in his own manifesto.
• 30:33
  Incredible.
• 30:34
  Uh,
• 30:34
  just awful.
• 30:35
  I,
• 30:35
  I,
• 30:35
  there,
• 30:36
  that was really depressing.
• 30:37
  Let's,
• 30:37
  let's talk about cookies a little bit before we go.
• 30:39
  Where do people go to get the cookies?
• 30:41
  They can go to
• 30:41
  kei.com,
• 30:43
  K E KSI.com.
• 30:45
  So the world feels like it's falling apart,
• 30:46
  and then you eat a good cookie.
• 30:48
  And then everything's fine.
• 30:49
  And then everything's fine.
• 30:49
  Everything's fine.
• 30:50
  Check it out.
• 30:50
  Key.com,
• 30:51
  of course,
• 30:51
  Pat Gray,
• 30:52
  host of Blaze TV's Pat Gray Unleashed.
• 30:54
  Be sure to pick up some Kexie cookies as well this week,
• 30:57
  uh,
• 30:57
  leading into Father's Day and Mother's Day,
• 30:58
  some new varieties out there,
• 31:00
  so check them out.
• 31:00
  Pat,
• 31:01
  thanks for coming on.
• 31:01
  Yeah,
• 31:01
  thank you.
• 31:10
  Dow Jones headed for the worst April since
• 31:13
  1932 as investors send no confidence signal.
• 31:17
  Now I do believe it bounced back.
• 31:18
  I checked earlier at least on today.
• 31:21
  I think it bounced back a little bit today,
• 31:23
  um,
• 31:23
  so that's positive news.
• 31:25
  Though you just,
• 31:26
  you know,
• 31:26
  you'd,
• 31:27
  you'd rather avoid headlines about how you're the worst since 1932 if you can,
• 31:30
  if you can deal with it.
• 31:33
  Um,
• 31:33
  it is,
• 31:33
  uh,
• 31:34
  it's hard to know at this point because we just don't
• 31:35
  know what the policies are going to be going forward,
• 31:37
  you know,
• 31:37
  I think we're kind of in an uncertain area right now,
• 31:40
  so.
• 31:40
  You know,
• 31:40
  like I've talked to people who are like,
• 31:41
  well,
• 31:42
  what should I do with my investments?
• 31:43
  I don't know.
• 31:43
  You know,
• 31:44
  it doesn't seem like a great time for investments,
• 31:46
  but
• 31:47
  we may see that turnaround really by a flip of a switch at any point.
• 31:51
  Um,
• 31:51
  President Trump did something with tariffs where he took off all these
• 31:54
  high rates on a lot of these countries around the world.
• 31:57
  And that seemed to do a heck of a good job jumpstarting the economy again.
• 32:01
  We've kind of been up and down since then,
• 32:03
  a little bit up today.
• 32:05
  Hopefully that continues.
• 32:06
  RFK Jr.'s autism study is on the way.
• 32:08
  He's going to amass the medical records of many
• 32:11
  Americans.
• 32:11
  The NIH is amassing private medical records from
• 32:13
  a number of federal and commercial databases.
• 32:18
  To give HHS RFK Junior's new effort to study autism a boost.
• 32:22
  New data will allow external researchers picks for Kennedy's autism studies
• 32:26
  to study comprehensive patient data with broad coverage.
• 32:28
  I mean,
• 32:29
  look,
• 32:31
  Believe what you want to believe on autism.
• 32:33
  I mean,
• 32:33
  it's up to you really at this point.
• 32:35
  I think people are kind of like set in their ways.
• 32:37
  There's very few people
• 32:38
  who have an opinion on this matter that don't hold it pretty strongly.
• 32:42
  Um,
• 32:42
  so I just don't see a lot of people switching no matter what RFK Junior says.
• 32:45
  People are gonna believe it or they're not.
• 32:47
  The one thing that I just can't take here though is this,
• 32:49
  this
• 32:51
  audition of this process for RFK Junior as this like open-ended,
• 32:55
  who knows how it will turn out process.
• 32:57
  I look,
• 32:58
  RFK Junior has spent his entire life saying,
• 33:01
  telling everybody what the cause of autism is.
• 33:04
  That's been his gig the his entire life.
• 33:06
  And now we're supposed to believe he's just going in this with this open-minded,
• 33:09
  and he's just,
• 33:09
  uh,
• 33:10
  who knows?
• 33:10
  It could come out with just nothing.
• 33:12
  Who knows?
• 33:13
  Uh,
• 33:13
  it's kind of a silly thing that everyone's kind of pretending at this point.
• 33:17
  I'm gonna look everywhere.
• 33:18
  And you're gonna,
• 33:19
  I'm sure you will.
• 33:20
  But what you're going to find is the thing that you found for the last 30 years,
• 33:23
  whatever that is.
• 33:24
  Um,
• 33:24
  it's like me going on a,
• 33:26
  uh,
• 33:26
  a,
• 33:26
  a fact-finding mission,
• 33:27
  mission to find out who the greatest football team is.
• 33:30
  Obviously,
• 33:31
  it's the Philadelphia Eagles.
• 33:33
  Um,
• 33:34
  uh,
• 33:34
  it's not gonna be a surprise when I tell you that,
• 33:36
  and I can tell you how open-minded I am.
• 33:37
  I will be considering the Cincinnati Bengals.
• 33:39
  No,
• 33:40
  I won't.
• 33:41
  OK,
• 33:41
  that's just not the way it works.
• 33:42
  Um,
• 33:43
  now it is Earth Day,
• 33:43
  we should at least go on and figure out what Al Gore is up to.
• 33:47
  You're gonna be shocked to hear this.
• 33:49
  Al Gore is comparing Trump
• 33:51
  to Nazis.
• 33:52
  Yes,
• 33:52
  Al Gore compares the Trump administration to Nazi Germany.
• 33:55
  Uh,
• 33:56
  you'd think that this,
• 33:57
  after trying this in 2024 and watching it blow up in their faces,
• 34:00
  they wouldn't go back to it,
• 34:01
  but.
• 34:01
  He says,
• 34:02
  uh,
• 34:02
  I understand very well why it is wrong to
• 34:04
  compare Adolf Hitler's Third Reich to any other movement.
• 34:07
  And then of course he went on to do that.
• 34:08
  He says it was uniquely evil,
• 34:10
  full of,
• 34:10
  full stop,
• 34:11
  I get it,
• 34:11
  but there are important lessons from history that,
• 34:14
  uh,
• 34:14
  that,
• 34:14
  uh,
• 34:15
  uh,
• 34:15
  that emergent evil.
• 34:17
  He went on to say,
• 34:17
  of course,
• 34:18
  Trump was identified was showing many of those,
• 34:20
  uh,
• 34:20
  things,
• 34:21
  uh,
• 34:21
  and,
• 34:21
  and
• 34:22
  characteristics.
• 34:23
  This is just what they do on the left,
• 34:24
  right?
• 34:24
  It's not just him,
• 34:25
  of course,
• 34:25
  Larry David also mocking Bill Maher's meeting.
• 34:29
  Uh,
• 34:29
  with,
• 34:30
  uh,
• 34:30
  Donald Trump as my dinner with Adolph,
• 34:32
  he wrote a satire piece in The New York Times,
• 34:34
  which again,
• 34:34
  I don't remember seeing a lot of satire pieces,
• 34:36
  but I guess Larry David is famous enough,
• 34:38
  he gets to do whatever he wants.
• 34:40
  Uh,
• 34:40
  he came out and said,
• 34:41
  he basically said,
• 34:42
  um,
• 34:44
  He,
• 34:44
  he parodied Bill Maher.
• 34:45
  And honestly,
• 34:46
  the,
• 34:46
  the,
• 34:47
  the more interesting part here is the
• 34:49
  battle on the left between Bill Maher and Larry David.
• 34:52
  Like you have two left-wing comedians
• 34:54
  who are just going at each other,
• 34:55
  uh,
• 34:55
  because this is really less about,
• 34:57
  honestly,
• 34:58
  Donald Trump and calling him Hitler,
• 34:59
  which of course it does do.
• 35:01
  But that's just standard,
• 35:01
  uh,
• 35:02
  you know,
• 35:03
  standard
• 35:03
  port of,
• 35:04
  uh,
• 35:04
  you know,
• 35:05
  it's basically the,
• 35:06
  the only thing you can do,
• 35:07
  right,
• 35:08
  uh,
• 35:08
  on the left is to call
• 35:09
  Adolf,
• 35:10
  uh,
• 35:10
  Donald Trump Adolf Hitler.
• 35:11
  But it's really more of an attack on Bill Maher,
• 35:13
  who said,
• 35:14
  hey,
• 35:14
  actually I found Donald Trump to be likable,
• 35:17
  and I think he's kind of like a,
• 35:18
  in reality,
• 35:19
  a nice guy,
• 35:19
  and,
• 35:20
  and his public persona is the thing that I don't like,
• 35:23
  but I don't even think that's real.
• 35:24
  That's kind of was his take on that.
• 35:25
  They didn't agree on a lot of things,
• 35:27
  but he still had dinner with him.
• 35:28
  Uh,
• 35:28
  Larry David's essay was basically directly mocking that.
• 35:31
  How can you say that after you're talking
• 35:33
  and sitting down for dinner with Adolf Hitler.
• 35:35
  So,
• 35:36
  that's where we are.
• 35:36
  And Chris Matthews,
• 35:37
  um,
• 35:37
  is still.
• 35:39
  Alive,
• 35:40
  uh,
• 35:40
  he's,
• 35:40
  uh,
• 35:40
  talking to Jim Acosta,
• 35:42
  who is,
• 35:42
  uh,
• 35:43
  still also alive,
• 35:45
  doing a con uh,
• 35:46
  some sort of podcast,
• 35:46
  I guess,
• 35:47
  um,
• 35:48
  or it really comes off more as a Zoom call,
• 35:49
  a really bad Zoom call as they talk over each other most of the time,
• 35:52
  but
• 35:53
  here is Chris Matthews' take on why you should call Adolf Hitler,
• 35:56
  Donald Trump,
• 35:57
  and basically say that they're the same person.
• 35:59
  Watch.
• 35:59
  The OJ trial all day.
• 36:02
  It's like.
• 36:03
  It's so true,
• 36:04
  and it and it just dominated our lives.
• 36:06
  I remember that.
• 36:07
  Um,
• 36:07
  but the other thing,
• 36:08
  you know,
• 36:09
  one thing that every
• 36:10
  taxi driver will talk about these days is Donald Trump,
• 36:12
  and I have to ask you some newsy questions before we
• 36:16
  spend the entire time together reminiscing.
• 36:18
  I got a nasty one for you.
• 36:20
  OK,
• 36:20
  well,
• 36:20
  good.
• 36:21
  I'm just wondering,
• 36:21
  I mean,
• 36:22
  what did Hitler do in the Holocaust?
• 36:24
  He took people from Germany to other countries.
• 36:28
  Yeah,
• 36:29
  where there was no German law.
• 36:31
  There was not even a pretense of German law.
• 36:32
  They took him to Poland or,
• 36:34
  you know,
• 36:35
  you're hungry or whatever,
• 36:36
  and they killed him.
• 36:37
  And so when you see what's happening right now with this El Salvadoran gulag,
• 36:41
  I mean the CCO gulag,
• 36:43
  gulag,
• 36:44
  it's the same as the gulag basically taking a page out of that playbook,
• 36:46
  you think,
• 36:47
  well,
• 36:47
  it gets him out of the country and who's,
• 36:49
  and he says he gets this
• 36:51
  president of El Salvador to say.
• 36:53
  Now if I were at CNN or
• 36:56
  MSNBC and I was in that Oval Office,
• 36:58
  I would have asked two questions.
• 37:00
  These are not original.
• 37:01
  First question to the president of Salvador.
• 37:04
  If President Trump asked you to send this guy Garcia back to the United States,
• 37:07
  would you do it?
• 37:08
  Then I'd go to President,
• 37:10
  then I'd go to Trump.
• 37:11
  Next question,
• 37:12
  Mr.
• 37:12
  President
• 37:13
  Trump,
• 37:13
  will you ask him to send them back?
• 37:17
  Alright,
• 37:17
  that's enough on Chris Matthews.
• 37:18
  I can't take more anymore.
• 37:19
  Let's just ban him for the next year
• 37:21
  or two.
• 37:22
  I don't want to hear another comment from,
• 37:23
  uh,
• 37:23
  Chris Matthews.
• 37:24
  Uh,
• 37:25
  uh,
• 37:26
  it's so ridiculous.
• 37:28
  Uh,
• 37:28
  he's,
• 37:29
  everything's Adolf Hitler.
• 37:29
  I love the,
• 37:30
  uh,
• 37:30
  what did Hitler do during the Holocaust?
• 37:32
  He moved people out of his country.
• 37:35
  There are actually other things he did that were really more notable.
• 37:38
  He wound up murdering 6 million Jews,
• 37:40
  for example.
• 37:41
  That's kind of the reason why we know the period.
• 37:43
  If what he did was take
• 37:45
  suspected gang members and send a couple of them across the border
• 37:51
  in what they
• 37:53
  themselves called a mistake,
• 37:54
  I don't think we'd look back at Adolf Hitler the same way.
• 37:57
  I don't think the name would carry as much weight as it does
• 37:59
  if it weren't for the millions of murders that went along with it.
• 38:03
  That was kind of the big thing.
• 38:05
  When it came to Adolf Hitler.
• 38:06
  So there are some pretty distinct differences there between
• 38:10
  Trump and Hitler.
• 38:10
  It's just amazing
• 38:11
  that you could do this because,
• 38:13
  uh,
• 38:13
  forever,
• 38:14
  it was off limits to compare anything to the Holocaust.
• 38:17
  You know,
• 38:17
  Glenn would come out and he would compare
• 38:19
  Hamas
• 38:20
  to the Nazis and he would get,
• 38:22
  uh,
• 38:22
  you know,
• 38:23
  people would get angry
• 38:24
  from,
• 38:24
  uh,
• 38:24
  the ADL and they would yell at him and say,
• 38:26
  how dare you,
• 38:27
  it minimizes the real,
• 38:28
  the real Holocaust and all this.
• 38:31
  Now you just come out and call Donald Trump Hitler every single day.
• 38:33
  I don't know if they're just overwhelmed and they
• 38:35
  just can't keep up with all the Hitler accusations,
• 38:37
  but
• 38:37
  I don't seem to hear much
• 38:39
  from them.
• 38:39
  Although we did hear this from them.
• 38:41
  Anti-Semitic incidents,
• 38:43
  partly fueled by campus protests,
• 38:45
  reached record-breaking highs in 2024,
• 38:48
  according to the ADL.
• 38:49
  So
• 38:49
  once again we've been warned forever of the anti-Semitism on the right,
• 38:53
  but when it comes down to it,
• 38:54
  when we're getting to record setting levels,
• 38:56
  where are we getting from?
• 38:57
  Of course,
• 38:58
  the college left.
• 39:10
  I wanna introduce a brand new segment here on the program,
• 39:14
  which is called,
• 39:15
  Wait,
• 39:17
  It Wasn't Already?
• 39:19
  Really?
• 39:21
  Because
• 39:21
  it seems like I get a lot of stories like this.
• 39:23
  Um,
• 39:24
  let me give you an example of this.
• 39:25
  Uh,
• 39:26
  Chipotle
• 39:27
  is going to expand to Mexico amid Trump trade war with US neighbor.
• 39:32
  Now I will say the Trump trade war has
• 39:34
  literally nothing to do with the story whatsoever.
• 39:36
  Like this is the typical way they do this in the news,
• 39:38
  uh,
• 39:38
  where they just
• 39:39
  insert Trump.
• 39:41
  It's got nothing to do with the story whatsoever.
• 39:43
  What,
• 39:43
  what is fascinating is,
• 39:45
  and why it's in the weight,
• 39:46
  it wasn't already
• 39:48
  a segment of the program is.
• 39:50
  The name of the restaurant is Chipotle Mexican Grill.
• 39:54
  They're getting their first location in Mexico.
• 39:57
  Wait,
• 39:58
  it,
• 39:58
  it wasn't there already?
• 39:59
  Like that's,
• 40:00
  this is a new thing that Chipotle is going to be in Mexico.
• 40:03
  Apparently,
• 40:04
  not,
• 40:04
  maybe not all that authentic.
• 40:06
  Now I will say,
• 40:07
  uh,
• 40:08
  Chipotle,
• 40:08
  which I enjoy Chipotle.
• 40:09
  I've got no problems with Chipotle.
• 40:11
  Not the
• 40:12
  least expensive food in the world though.
• 40:14
  Um,
• 40:14
  the fact that this tariff war is going on.
• 40:17
  When you're going to be importing into
• 40:20
  Mexico all of the wonderful delicious Mexican.
• 40:23
  American rice and beans is really,
• 40:26
  I'm sure going to really knock that price up even higher,
• 40:28
  so get ready for that.
• 40:30
  Another example of,
• 40:31
  wait,
• 40:32
  it wasn't already,
• 40:33
  comes to us from Hollywood,
• 40:35
  a new Oscars rule,
• 40:37
  if you don't see all of the nominated films,
• 40:39
  you can't vote.
• 40:42
  Wait,
• 40:43
  that wasn't already a rule?
• 40:44
  Like,
• 40:45
  is that er?
• 40:47
  That's really,
• 40:48
  apparently this has not been a rule,
• 40:49
  you actually
• 40:51
  were able in,
• 40:52
  at least in the past,
• 40:53
  to be able to vote on the Best Picture
• 40:56
  and Best Supporting Actress and Best Actor
• 40:59
  without actually watching the movies that you're voting on.
• 41:02
  Now that to me seems like a sub-optimal plan.
• 41:06
  Uh,
• 41:06
  it seems like it should have been a rule a long time ago.
• 41:08
  Now I guess this was a rule for foreign films,
• 41:10
  oddly,
• 41:11
  like if you were looking at a foreign film,
• 41:13
  you had to make sure that you watched it all.
• 41:15
  But for domestic films you're like,
• 41:16
  it's all slop anyway,
• 41:17
  don't worry about it,
• 41:18
  just this is whatever,
• 41:19
  just shovel on any opinion that you want.
• 41:21
  Uh,
• 41:21
  so now,
• 41:22
  because there was a controversy for a while
• 41:24
  where they would set up these screeners for movies
• 41:26
  and they would see the voters watching like 20 minutes of them and turning
• 41:29
  them off because they could tell how how much of the movie they watched,
• 41:33
  and they weren't even watching them.
• 41:34
  Now they're saying,
• 41:34
  OK,
• 41:35
  you got to at least watch the movies.
• 41:36
  I mean,
• 41:37
  I know I'm asking a lot here.
• 41:38
  So there's going to be like 4 votes for each Oscar now.
• 41:41
  I mean this is,
• 41:42
  I think,
• 41:42
  really gonna upend this entire process because
• 41:44
  they might say they're watching the movies,
• 41:46
  but we know they're not gonna watch the movies.
• 41:48
  I kind of thought that's what it would have been like in the past,
• 41:50
  right?
• 41:51
  Where they would have this sort of honor
• 41:52
  system and people probably didn't really pay attention,
• 41:54
  but you were expected to actually watch the movies.
• 41:57
  No,
• 41:57
  in the past,
• 41:58
  apparently,
• 41:59
  you didn't even have to watch them.
• 42:01
  But
• 42:02
  that's our,
• 42:02
  uh,
• 42:02
  wait,
• 42:03
  it wasn't already.
• 42:04
  segment of the day because I kind of thought that one would have already been a rule.
• 42:09
  Apparently not,
• 42:10
  and all of the Oscar nominations and awards you've watched over
• 42:13
  the years really meant even less than you thought before.
• 42:25
  Well,
• 42:25
  we cover it often and the media kind of just
• 42:26
  makes up their own news honestly at this point.
• 42:28
  They also seem to stick to one version about
• 42:30
  the January 6th story without all the details.
• 42:33
  I mean,
• 42:33
  look,
• 42:33
  we all saw what happened that day,
• 42:35
  but,
• 42:36
  uh,
• 42:37
  there's so much more that we haven't seen,
• 42:39
  and,
• 42:40
  and I think it's interesting to look at that.
• 42:41
  Blaze TV just released their final episode covering January 6th,
• 42:44
  and the findings are definitely worth your attention.
• 42:46
  They've uncovered new Capitol surveillance footage,
• 42:48
  conflicting timelines,
• 42:49
  and important questions
• 42:51
  surrounding the,
• 42:52
  the story.
• 42:53
  Of
• 42:53
  Officer Harry Dunn and his account.
• 42:56
  I'm not here to tell you what to think,
• 42:57
  but I do think that you deserve access to all the information,
• 43:00
  and it is now streaming exclusively on Blaze TV.
• 43:03
  I actually watched this earlier today.
• 43:05
  And,
• 43:06
  uh,
• 43:06
  you know,
• 43:06
  it's,
• 43:06
  it's not one of those things where,
• 43:08
  like there's no excuses made for the bad things that went on on January 6th,
• 43:11
  but what it is,
• 43:12
  is a real investigation into looking at this footage
• 43:15
  and saying that what
• 43:16
  Harry Dunn said about his day
• 43:19
  seems to completely not be true.
• 43:21
  I mean,
• 43:21
  we have the footage,
• 43:22
  we have the timelines,
• 43:23
  we can put it in full perspective.
• 43:24
  You can head over to Blazetv.com/J6 and see it for yourself.
• 43:28
  Take a moment today to check it out.
• 43:29
  It's blazetv.com/J6.
