Transcript
- 0:04Speaker 1: Well, USA hockey is awesome. Hockey in general is awesome,
- 0:07Speaker 1: but now everybody's seeing that on the Olympic stage, and
- 0:09Speaker 1: this particular team, with these particular athletes are just fantastic.
- 0:13Speaker 1: We'll talk about that as well as well as I
- 0:16Speaker 1: think it was a big, big mistake and they're just
- 0:19Speaker 1: starting to learn this now. For the Democrats to call
- 0:21Speaker 1: President Trump a racist because in two specific examples yesterday
- 0:26Speaker 1: that blew up right in their faces. We'll talk about
- 0:28Speaker 1: that as well as well as this is You're gonna
- 0:31Speaker 1: have to forgive me because I'm just taking so much
- 0:34Speaker 1: I'll call it personal joy out of this story. It's
- 0:37Speaker 1: a local story where I've been for a long time
- 0:39Speaker 1: broadcasting in South Florida. There is a move underway that
- 0:43Speaker 1: is close to happening that is going to drive Trump
- 0:48Speaker 1: derangement syndrome victims absolutely bonkers. And it's just it's so
- 0:53Speaker 1: glorious and it may actually happen. I'll tell you what
- 0:55Speaker 1: that is to come up. It's just a little bit.
- 0:57Speaker 1: In the meantime, a lot of good stuff today. Thanks
- 0:59Speaker 1: for finding the We could radio live stream on x
- 1:01Speaker 1: if you can work through the algorithm. I have no
- 1:04Speaker 1: idea anymore. I give up. I don't know what they're
- 1:06Speaker 1: doing with live streams. I have no idea. So if
- 1:07Speaker 1: you're here and you're finding me on X, you worked
- 1:09Speaker 1: hard to get here, and I love you and I
- 1:10Speaker 1: appreciate you. I can't figure it out anymore. I have
- 1:14Speaker 1: no idea what they're doing. Elon, I love you. Thanks
- 1:16Speaker 1: for saving free speech. They've screwed up your engineers have
- 1:20Speaker 1: screwed up this algorithm so badly. I don't know. I'm
- 1:22Speaker 1: just gonna put this thing on TikTok, I think whatever. Anyways,
- 1:25Speaker 1: it's also on Facebook and on YouTube and the audio
- 1:27Speaker 1: podcast wherever you like to get them, and then the
- 1:30Speaker 1: replay and all these channels later on too. Let's get
- 1:32Speaker 1: right to it. USA Hockey, Baby, the USA Olympians. I'm
- 1:36Speaker 1: moving on to the quarterfinals. So now they betweating yesterday.
- 1:39Speaker 1: By the way, for the first time in international history,
- 1:43Speaker 1: we've never beaten Sweden. Did I read that correctly. That's unbelievable. Well,
- 1:47Speaker 1: well now we have. We did yesterday in overtime. It
- 1:50Speaker 1: was incredible. It was a great game. We'll get more
- 1:52Speaker 1: on the athletes here in a second, but watch this.
- 1:56Speaker 2: I'll playing huge.
- 1:56Speaker 1: We've played three and a.
- 1:57Speaker 2: Half minutes, and over time, the mighty Quinn Hughes of
- 2:07Speaker 2: the Minnesota Wild, fantastic athlete wins it in overtime.
- 2:10Speaker 1: They move on, they play. Let's see USA plays Slovakia.
- 2:14Speaker 1: Canada also won, and they're gonna play Finland in the quarterfinals.
- 2:17Speaker 1: You know, you know the entire world wants USA versus Canada.
- 2:21Speaker 1: You just know it. It just seems like it's gonna happen.
- 2:24Speaker 1: I don't know, it's gonna be amazing and we get
- 2:25Speaker 1: revenge for them cheating and curling. Anyway, this is why
- 2:30Speaker 1: this particular hockey in general is great. USA hockey is awesome,
- 2:34Speaker 1: but this particular group of athletes put it over the top.
- 2:38Speaker 1: The game winner, Quinn Hughes, the defenseman who got that
- 2:41Speaker 1: game winning shot, credible shot in overtime. This is a
- 2:45Speaker 1: little example of what I'm talking about. But you could
- 2:47Speaker 1: pick anybody from that team and they all seem to
- 2:49Speaker 1: have the same sentiment.
- 2:50Speaker 3: Hell of a game out there.
- 2:51Speaker 1: You took down their game winner.
- 2:53Speaker 4: I mean, what does that feel like?
- 2:54Speaker 3: Yeah, just to relief, just really enjoying being there with
- 2:57Speaker 3: this group and the guys trying to extend it as
- 3:00Speaker 3: honorable chapter right on.
- 3:02Speaker 1: And then USA flags all over the place. You could
- 3:04Speaker 1: hear the chance what's the obviosphere.
- 3:06Speaker 3: Yeah, it's special. I mean, you know, I love the
- 3:10Speaker 3: US and here screens country in the world, so hope
- 3:14Speaker 3: to represented here with these guys.
- 3:15Speaker 1: And first of all, most most hockey players you hear
- 3:20Speaker 1: from are the same way. They're just really humble, hard
- 3:22Speaker 1: working athletes, I think, in my opinion, of the toughest
- 3:24Speaker 1: athletes in pro sports. But there you have it there,
- 3:27Speaker 1: and like I said, almost everybody in that particular team,
- 3:30Speaker 1: if you've seen any of the coverage, the interviews, the aftermath,
- 3:33Speaker 1: the pregame stuff, they all say the same thing. They
- 3:35Speaker 1: go out of their way to say, I love this country.
- 3:37Speaker 1: I love representing my country. It's an honor. I'm so
- 3:40Speaker 1: glad the American fans are here in Italy cheering us on.
- 3:43Speaker 1: To a man, they've been saying that leadership to coaching
- 3:47Speaker 1: staff as well. Isn't it amazing? And maybe it's just
- 3:49Speaker 1: my maybe it's just my pattern recognition. I happen to
- 3:51Speaker 1: have noticed something. Did you notice that the American athletes
- 3:55Speaker 1: that are disparaging our country and are saying nasty things,
- 3:58Speaker 1: they're not doing too well in the middle count did
- 4:00Speaker 1: you happen to notice that I have the patriotic ones
- 4:03Speaker 1: are doing well? Maybe that's not even a thing. Maybe
- 4:05Speaker 1: that's just like my recency bias. I don't know, but
- 4:08Speaker 1: I happened to have noticed that, just me, Like the
- 4:11Speaker 1: American ice skater, the figure skater who did all the
- 4:15Speaker 1: woke crap and then did videos from the Olympic village
- 4:19Speaker 1: mocking Ice and mocking Trump and all this stuff, and
- 4:21Speaker 1: then you finished thirteenth. Okay, just me, just me. I'm
- 4:25Speaker 1: not rooting against American athletes, just an observation, That's all
- 4:28Speaker 1: I'm saying. So route on American hok Usa, Canada come.
- 4:32Speaker 1: How awesome is that gonna be? Is gonna be? You
- 4:34Speaker 1: know it's gonna happen if it's USA, Finland, Okay, we'll
- 4:38Speaker 1: see whatever. It's gonna be fantastic. Here's a great thing
- 4:40Speaker 1: that happened. Let's get into news now. As if that
- 4:43Speaker 1: wasn't news enough, A couple of amazing things happened right
- 4:47Speaker 1: at the White House yesterday. They both involved Trump, but
- 4:50Speaker 1: they both involve press conferences. The first one was amazing.
- 4:54Speaker 1: So they had and this is kind of reflective of
- 4:56Speaker 1: what we were talking about a couple of months ago.
- 4:58Speaker 1: Do you remember all the covers And then all of
- 5:00Speaker 1: a sudden it died down when Trump said the National
- 5:03Speaker 1: Guard to clean up Washington, DC. Rememb when that happened.
- 5:05Speaker 1: It's an invasion, it's a military coup. It's an Yeah.
- 5:09Speaker 1: Notice how you don't hear that anymore. You know why?
- 5:11Speaker 1: We you and I we discussed this on the live
- 5:14Speaker 1: stream at the time, and in the comments section, you
- 5:16Speaker 1: guys were agreeing with me. Remember we said it. You
- 5:18Speaker 1: know why that story died down and that narrative didn't work,
- 5:22Speaker 1: that this was a this is a military takeover of
- 5:24Speaker 1: our nation's capital. You know why, because the residents started
- 5:27Speaker 1: speaking up. The mostly African American inner city, a lower
- 5:32Speaker 1: income residents started speaking up about ten days in. They
- 5:35Speaker 1: started saying, it's the first time I played it for you.
- 5:38Speaker 1: I could dig them up right now. Residents, kids, grandma's, moms, dads, families,
- 5:45Speaker 1: women saying it is the first time to go walk
- 5:47Speaker 1: down my street and feel safe. After this, then all
- 5:50Speaker 1: of a sudden, the news narrative died. Well. Yesterday, in
- 5:53Speaker 1: the East wing of the White House, they had a
- 5:54Speaker 1: wrap up about not a wrap up I guess continuing
- 5:57Speaker 1: and talking about the success. It's what administrations they brag
- 6:00Speaker 1: about their success, and they did about making America safe again.
- 6:04Speaker 1: This was a little different though. They had a black
- 6:07Speaker 1: grandma who was there to tell her story about what
- 6:11Speaker 1: she's seen, what she's experienced in Washington, DC. She's lost
- 6:14Speaker 1: a child to the violence in that city. Listen to
- 6:17Speaker 1: what she said, particularly about President Trump, because she was complimentary.
- 6:21Speaker 1: That's why she got so much airtime. But here she
- 6:23Speaker 1: was One.
- 6:23Speaker 5: Thing I like about him. He keeps it real, just
- 6:26Speaker 5: like grandma. I appreciate that because I can trust him
- 6:30Speaker 5: because he tells exactly how you feel and what he thinks.
- 6:33Speaker 5: Thank God for this president. I am feeled my cup
- 6:41Speaker 5: brnners over because he allowed his constituents, his people to
- 6:48Speaker 5: come to my house to interview me to talk about
- 6:51Speaker 5: the murder of my grandson. It seemed like nobody cared
- 6:57Speaker 5: I'm an advocate for murder. I'm watched, I rallied. I
- 7:01Speaker 5: pulled out other familists in the disc of Columbia. They
- 7:04Speaker 5: had murders and did not have answers. Who we MARSHUI
- 7:10Speaker 5: rally and nobody heard me. Democrats get mad.
- 7:14Speaker 1: Went on to say something very important was long, I
- 7:16Speaker 1: don't want to play the whole thing for you. But
- 7:17Speaker 1: she went on to say, I don't want to hear
- 7:18Speaker 1: anything else, anything else. I want to hear it about
- 7:21Speaker 1: anybody calling Trump a racist. This is from her, the
- 7:24Speaker 1: black grandma talking about this, Who's lived it, She's experienced violence,
- 7:27Speaker 1: she's lost a daughter. She tried to get her voice
- 7:29Speaker 1: heard before all this happened, completely ignored because they're just
- 7:34Speaker 1: a number to a lot of politicians. That's what she said.
- 7:38Speaker 1: This is why I think, honestly, I mean this. I
- 7:41Speaker 1: think the biggest mistake strategically the Democrats ever made in
- 7:44Speaker 1: trying to deal with Trump was trying to call him
- 7:46Speaker 1: a racist, paint him as a racist. It backfired so badly.
- 7:50Speaker 1: And this is just another example of that, just another
- 7:52Speaker 1: example of all the things. Because very as soon as
- 7:55Speaker 1: they started doing that, and they tried it, of course
- 7:56Speaker 1: in the first administration, you remember all that, and then
- 7:59Speaker 1: it continued through when he was even out of office,
- 8:01Speaker 1: and then really they tried it again this time it
- 8:04Speaker 1: never took hold because once you start to actually talk
- 8:07Speaker 1: about most inner city blacks, they just don't buy it.
- 8:11Speaker 1: In fact, it started to backfire with this latest presidential
- 8:14Speaker 1: campaign leading up to twenty twenty four, where you started
- 8:18Speaker 1: to see a lot of independent journalists talking to black
- 8:20Speaker 1: folks on the streets and they loved him and they said,
- 8:22Speaker 1: I can relate to him because, like the black grandma said,
- 8:26Speaker 1: just right there, she said, he tells it like it is.
- 8:29Speaker 1: There's a lot of swagger to that that a lot
- 8:31Speaker 1: of people can relate to. It is backfired so bad,
- 8:35Speaker 1: but they're gonna try it again. They're gonna try it
- 8:36Speaker 1: again and say he's a racist, he's he's this is, that,
- 8:39Speaker 1: he's whatever's this is, and it never really sticks, but
- 8:42Speaker 1: they keep on trying, which should tell you and me
- 8:45Speaker 1: that that's really pretty much all they have to try
- 8:48Speaker 1: to go after the guy, because overall, there's a lot
- 8:51Speaker 1: of good things happening in the country that they will
- 8:53Speaker 1: not report on. Case in point, the second thing that
- 8:56Speaker 1: happened right at the White House different area in the
- 8:58Speaker 1: White House press room yesterday. They're still trying to egg
- 9:03Speaker 1: on the Press secretary, thinking that this is like the
- 9:05Speaker 1: old administration or previous administrations, even the first Trump administration,
- 9:10Speaker 1: when they would ask something completely absurd and you would
- 9:14Speaker 1: try to give a respectable answer, because it's the White House,
- 9:16Speaker 1: and that's what you try to do. No, no, no, no more.
- 9:18Speaker 1: You don't do that. You don't answer an absurd question
- 9:22Speaker 1: with a respectable answer. You fight absurdity by mocking it.
- 9:26Speaker 1: And that's exactly what Caroline Levitt did yesterday. And this
- 9:29Speaker 1: was just beautiful. You had just I didn't even know
- 9:32Speaker 1: where he's from, some absolute jackass White House press reporter.
- 9:38Speaker 1: And this was in regarding the statements President Trump made
- 9:42Speaker 1: about losing the Reverend Jesse Jackson, and he said, despite
- 9:45Speaker 1: all the wacko Democrats calling me a racist, Jesse Jackson
- 9:48Speaker 1: never did blah blah blah blah. So that was the
- 9:49Speaker 1: question that led to this guy asking this what you
- 9:52Speaker 1: got to pay attention to. Here's a little life lesson
- 9:54Speaker 1: for all of us, and it's coming from Caroline Levitt.
- 9:57Speaker 1: This is how you deal with absurdity. You mock it
- 10:00Speaker 1: and you get everybody else in the room to laugh
- 10:02Speaker 1: at it. This was a clinic. But they'll still try
- 10:05Speaker 1: and they'll never learn because they think this is how
- 10:07Speaker 1: they used to do things. No more, she's so good
- 10:09Speaker 1: at this.
- 10:10Speaker 4: Yesterday, in his statement about Jesse Jackson, the President said,
- 10:13Speaker 4: despite the fact that I'm falsely and consistently called a
- 10:15Speaker 4: racist by the scoundrels and lunatics on the radical left
- 10:18Speaker 4: Democrats all it was always my pleasure to help Jesse
- 10:22Speaker 4: along the way. Where or when does the president believe
- 10:26Speaker 4: he's been falsely called racist?
- 10:29Speaker 6: You're kidding right? I will pull you plethora of examples.
- 10:34Speaker 6: I'm going to get my team in that room to
- 10:36Speaker 6: start going through the internet of radical Democrats throughout the
- 10:40Speaker 6: years ed who have accused this president falsely of being
- 10:43Speaker 6: a racist. And I'm sure there's many people in this
- 10:46Speaker 6: room and on network television across the country who have
- 10:48Speaker 6: accused him of the same.
- 10:49Speaker 1: In fact, was the greatest part of that whole thing,
- 10:52Speaker 1: and how she handled it, which was just perfect. First
- 10:53Speaker 1: of all, if you're an audio only listener, I'm sorry
- 10:55Speaker 1: you didn't see her facial expression, but she did the
- 10:57Speaker 1: eyebrows up and lean in to ation. She went you're
- 11:02Speaker 1: kidding right, which was the visual part of it, which
- 11:05Speaker 1: was fantastic, and then got the entire room to laugh
- 11:08Speaker 1: at this idiot. It was just so good. That's how
- 11:12Speaker 1: you respond to it. They still I don't know what
- 11:14Speaker 1: it is. I guess it's just arrogance. Where the traditional
- 11:18Speaker 1: mainstream news, specifically White House press pool thinks that that
- 11:22Speaker 1: still works because what they what he wanted to do
- 11:26Speaker 1: was get a specific, general milk toast answer out of her.
- 11:29Speaker 1: Well it's not true, and it's clearly it's nothing. And
- 11:31Speaker 1: then well, and then he just runs with it, and
- 11:33Speaker 1: he says despite her denials, and they did all things
- 11:35Speaker 1: now because he she mocked his stupid baited race baiting question,
- 11:41Speaker 1: getting the entire rest of the press cord to even
- 11:43Speaker 1: laugh at him. Can't do anything about it because you
- 11:45Speaker 1: just look even more stupid. That's how you do it.
- 11:48Speaker 1: They still think this is the old days. You don't
- 11:50Speaker 1: do it it. I think it's a takeaway for all
- 11:52Speaker 1: of us. You mock absurdity. That's how you deal with it.
- 11:55Speaker 1: It's just like she did. She is god, Oh my god.
- 11:58Speaker 1: I hope she stays in that job. She is so
- 12:00Speaker 1: good at that, she's absolutely brilliant. But they still try.
- 12:05Speaker 1: All right, let's get to that. I teased it long enough.
- 12:07Speaker 1: Let's get to my favorite. I mean, this my favorite
- 12:10Speaker 1: story of twenty twenty six so far. A lot of
- 12:14Speaker 1: this is selfish reasons, because I just know this area
- 12:17Speaker 1: so well. I've been here so long, and I know
- 12:21Speaker 1: the reaction this is going to create among the Trump
- 12:24Speaker 1: Derangement syndrome sufferers that are down in South Florida. There
- 12:29Speaker 1: is a I'll give you the news story. The Florida
- 12:32Speaker 1: House passed a measure yesterday. This is the first step
- 12:36Speaker 1: to rename Palm Beach International Airport PBIA. If you know what,
- 12:41Speaker 1: I'm sure you've been there, Donald J. Trump International Airport.
- 12:46Speaker 1: This is the greatest name now because it was just
- 12:51Speaker 1: last month. A month and a half ago, they renamed
- 12:53Speaker 1: Southern Boulevard through West pom Beach, which is a main
- 12:56Speaker 1: thoroughfare that will get you to the airport. They named
- 12:58Speaker 1: it Donald Trump Boulevard. They hated that. But this is
- 13:04Speaker 1: why this is just so rich. There are so many
- 13:08Speaker 1: so Palm Beach County itself. Let me just explain this.
- 13:11Speaker 1: It's kind of like a mostly usually blue pocket surrounded
- 13:16Speaker 1: by the rest of the state, which is almost all red.
- 13:18Speaker 1: So you have so many mostly New York, some Massachusetts,
- 13:23Speaker 1: some New Jersey liberals that live down here that just transplant.
- 13:25Speaker 1: They're either snowbirds or their transplants or they're down here.
- 13:28Speaker 1: Now that's just some I'll describe it. This way some
- 13:31Speaker 1: of the worst cases of Trump derangement syndrome. And I've
- 13:34Speaker 1: seen it all over the country, all over the country.
- 13:37Speaker 1: Some of the worst examples of that you'll find right
- 13:39Speaker 1: here in Palm Beach County. You just do. It's just
- 13:41Speaker 1: the nature. So for them to take a flight to
- 13:46Speaker 1: LaGuardia or Kennedy Airport out of Trump International Airport is
- 13:51Speaker 1: gonna drive them absolutely totally insane. And it's one step
- 13:57Speaker 1: away from Ashley. I love this so much. Here's an
- 14:01Speaker 1: earlier story about how it is started. Now again, here's
- 14:04Speaker 1: where we are right now. So it passed the Florida House,
- 14:07Speaker 1: it is up for a vote vote in the Florida Senate,
- 14:11Speaker 1: and then Rod Desatus, the governor, would have to sign
- 14:13Speaker 1: off on it, which I'm pretty sure he will, and
- 14:16Speaker 1: then it has to go through the FAA stuff and
- 14:18Speaker 1: the renaming and whatever, and they got to change signs
- 14:20Speaker 1: or whatever. But it's this close to PBIA becoming Trump
- 14:25Speaker 1: did Nashittal Airport. This is how it all started, when
- 14:27Speaker 1: they started to trademark the name. Now this is a
- 14:29Speaker 1: little long, but I'll go to a local Yogal news station.
- 14:32Speaker 1: I think it's Channel twenty five in West Pond Beach
- 14:35Speaker 1: when they first got news that, well, they're filing for trademarks.
- 14:38Speaker 1: How could that be? What could that lead to? Again,
- 14:40Speaker 1: this is before the Florida houspit. The bill is making
- 14:42Speaker 1: its way through Tallahassee right now would allow for PBIA
- 14:45Speaker 1: to be renamed after President Trump. Now, as reporter Rachel
- 14:48Speaker 1: Williams tells us, a new trademark filing is raising questions
- 14:51Speaker 1: about branding public infrastructure and presidential power.
- 14:55Speaker 5: The company behind the filings is called d TTM Operations LLC,
- 15:00Speaker 5: and just last week the company followed three federal trademark
- 15:03Speaker 5: applications four different names. Those names are President Donald J.
- 15:07Speaker 5: Trump International Airport, Donald J. Trump International Airport, and dj T.
- 15:15Speaker 1: Again, that was before Florida. That was when they were
- 15:17Speaker 1: just starting to get wind. It is just starting to
- 15:19Speaker 1: get a scent that this might be coming. By the
- 15:21Speaker 1: way side, note here, I don't pay a lot of
- 15:23Speaker 1: attention to local Yokal TV news. You probably don't either.
- 15:26Speaker 1: According to the ratings, how far has that fallen? Did
- 15:29Speaker 1: you hear them?
- 15:30Speaker 5: Oh?
- 15:30Speaker 1: God? Woof? Well that's rough. Anyways, how about that? How
- 15:34Speaker 1: about the the sendoff to the local reporter raising new
- 15:37Speaker 1: questions about presidential power and public infrastructure. No, it's not
- 15:41Speaker 1: what like the other airport like Kennedy Airport wasn't That
- 15:44Speaker 1: wasn't a concern all the other airports or public infrastructure
- 15:47Speaker 1: named after presidential figures. God, what a stupid statement to make.
- 15:52Speaker 1: But anyway, it's coming, and it's going to be the
- 15:54Speaker 1: greatest Trump derangement syndrome meltdown you have ever seen. I
- 15:58Speaker 1: can't wait. That same news station. I'll probably talk now
- 16:01Speaker 1: to people across that. You know, they'll go to h
- 16:03Speaker 1: they'll go to the retirement homes and talk to the
- 16:05Speaker 1: Trump derangement syndrome victims there and see what they feel
- 16:08Speaker 1: about it. Your direct flight from Trump International to LaGuardia.
- 16:13Speaker 1: Oh god, I can't wait. It's gonna be fantastic. All right. Anyway,
- 16:16Speaker 1: watch out for USA Hockey and learn a lesson from
- 16:18Speaker 1: them because they love what they represent, every single one
- 16:21Speaker 1: of their players. And there are other USA athletes, most
- 16:23Speaker 1: of them are like this too. They love representing the US.
- 16:25Speaker 1: Root for them, not the other idiots. And the biggest
- 16:27Speaker 1: takeaway from Caroline Levitt yesterday, you don't give a respectable
- 16:31Speaker 1: answer to an absurd question. You mock it like she
