• 0:19
  and Scott Moskowitz. Hey, y 'all. Welcome back
• 0:26
  to No ID, North Idaho's mainstream media deconstruction.
• 0:30
  I'm Scott. Hello, internet. I'm Paul. Welcome
• 0:33
  back. Good to be here. It's another in person
• 0:37
  recording rocket fueled by the French press.
• 0:42
  Cheers to that. Cheers to that. And also this
• 0:45
  this video thing that I'm reluctantly but apparently
• 0:50
  necessarily engaged in now. The important thing
• 0:53
  here is that I won. Yeah, you did say in the
• 0:56
  very beginning and you were sort of confused
• 0:58
  as to why we weren't doing it. And I guess I
• 1:04
  don't know. I was sort of like listening to one
• 1:07
  person in particular who was like, don't do it.
• 1:09
  And then the other 50 people who were like, do
• 1:11
  it. And because I didn't want to do it, I was
• 1:13
  like, well, what about the one person who said,
• 1:15
  don't do it? It's totally fair. And I went along
• 1:17
  with you because quite frankly, dude, you're
• 1:19
  the dude, you're the guy who knows, you're the
• 1:21
  expert. You did this for a living. So I wasn't
• 1:23
  going to argue. And the guy whose advice that
• 1:26
  you followed also has been doing it for a living
• 1:28
  for a long time. This is one of the few times
• 1:32
  I actually was happy to and willing to trust
• 1:35
  the experts. And it turns out they were wrong.
• 1:39
  Experts. Experts say that's what I get for trusting
• 1:43
  the experts. You know what? Here we can we can
• 1:47
  consult with some experts experts straight away
• 1:50
  here with regard to inland northwest avalanches.
• 1:53
  a lot of experts weighing in. Well, take a look
• 1:55
  at this snow covered mountains across the Inland
• 1:58
  Northwest, a beautiful sight to see, especially
• 2:01
  if you are a skier or snowboarder. And while
• 2:05
  you might be itching to get that fresh powder
• 2:06
  this weekend, experts warn not doing so cautiously
• 2:09
  can be deadly for many skiers. The experts are
• 2:13
  always trying to tell you exactly that. Wait,
• 2:16
  so the breaking news, if you're not careful,
• 2:20
  things could be dangerous. We're all going to
• 2:22
  die. Getting to get that fresh powder this weekend.
• 2:25
  Experts warn not doing so cautiously can be deadly.
• 2:29
  For many skiers and snowboarders, a backcountry
• 2:31
  landscape buried in fresh snow near Lookout Pass
• 2:35
  feels like a gift from Mother Nature. But snow
• 2:38
  experts also see something else. Do you think
• 2:40
  they were like a gift from God? Delete, delete,
• 2:42
  delete Mother Nature. Snow experts. I want to
• 2:47
  know how one gets into the field of being a snow
• 2:50
  expert. I even looked that up. Did you? When
• 2:52
  I put this clip, I was like, what do you mean
• 2:54
  the experts? What does it mean? You'll hear in
• 2:56
  a moment. I can't wait. The actual title. Gap
• 2:58
  Pass feels like a gift from Mother Nature, but
• 3:01
  snow experts also see something else. We're seeing
• 3:04
  very large avalanches. Like, no. triggered avalanches
• 3:07
  small right now. They're all big enough to injure,
• 3:10
  bury or kill a person. Izzy Davis forecaster
• 3:13
  with the Idaho Panhandle Avalanche Center says
• 3:16
  her organization has seen more skier triggered
• 3:18
  avalanches over the last four days than they
• 3:21
  have throughout the whole snow season. All it
• 3:23
  takes is a skier being on or near a 30 degree
• 3:27
  slope to trigger those avalanches. So there you
• 3:30
  go. That that chick Izzy Davis is a snow expert.
• 3:33
  The Idaho Was that the Idaho Panhandle Avalanche?
• 3:37
  I looked it up. It's a non -profit. It's not
• 3:39
  a state agency. That was the first thing I was
• 3:42
  like, how much is Izzy making? Izzy's salary.
• 3:45
  How big is the budget for this thing? Izzy's
• 3:47
  making 300k a year. No, it's actually a nonprofit.
• 3:50
  So I breathe a sigh of relief. Me too. Now, when
• 3:53
  you're skiing those groomers at places like Lookout,
• 3:55
  you really don't have a lot to worry about. However,
• 3:58
  once you get into the backcountry and areas like
• 4:00
  this, things start to change. If you're not careful,
• 4:04
  you don't know what to slope up. conditions are.
• 4:06
  You can trigger an avalanche just by skiing across
• 4:10
  or boarding across something because it's unstable.
• 4:13
  John Batchelder leads the ski patrol team at
• 4:15
  Lookout Pass. His team has calls from skiers
• 4:18
  who are lost or need help in the backcountry
• 4:20
  at least once a week. And all this fresh snow
• 4:23
  brings a new layer of concern. It can go so quickly.
• 4:27
  Take a look. It is slopes like this that Batchelder
• 4:29
  is worried about. He says they're not hard to
• 4:32
  access, especially if you have a snowmobile,
• 4:34
  but Bringing the right equipment here is crucial.
• 4:37
  Things like an avalanche beacon, a shovel and
• 4:40
  whistles. Having the knowledge and the ability
• 4:45
  to use your equipment. Both Fatshelder and Davis
• 4:48
  say before heading out to the backcountry to
• 4:50
  enjoy the new snow, you should have a rock solid
• 4:52
  plan in place on how to stay safe. Sticking to
• 4:56
  low angle, open meadows is a great way to safely
• 4:59
  enjoy the new snow right now. Because that's
• 5:02
  what I work really like. I'm going to take my
• 5:04
  snowmobile, I'm going to bust my ass and get
• 5:06
  into the backcountry to hit the bunny hills.
• 5:09
  The snow experts say avoid black diamonds and
• 5:11
  blue circles and green squares. Just stick to
• 5:15
  the, you know what? Just go to the lodge and
• 5:16
  have some chili. Yeah. In fact, don't even ski.
• 5:18
  Just sled. Build a snowman. This in the wake
• 5:22
  of an avalanche in Northern California. I saw
• 5:25
  that. Out near Tahoe. I didn't see it happen,
• 5:27
  but I saw it in the news. Several deaths, including
• 5:30
  one of the ladies I think was from Boise that
• 5:32
  I heard. If memory serves, it was 11 people missing.
• 5:37
  And when I tuned in... three or four days ago,
• 5:40
  it was still nine missing they were looking for.
• 5:42
  So I don't know what the final tally is, but
• 5:44
  kind of a big one. Yeah, big one. And so I was
• 5:48
  starting to I saw a lot of different stories
• 5:50
  covering avalanche danger in, you know, Montana
• 5:53
  and Oregon and Washington and basically everywhere.
• 5:55
  It's a bummer. I mean, like that is not the way
• 5:57
  I'd want to go. And kind of a crummy way to have
• 6:00
  your day and be like, this is so much fun. It's
• 6:03
  not fun anymore. Yikes. I mean, not to get too
• 6:06
  morbid, but I did wonder that, too. Like, are
• 6:08
  you Are you just buried alive and you just like
• 6:11
  slowly die over the course of four days? I mean,
• 6:14
  what? Oh, I would wager. No, I'm not. I'm not
• 6:17
  a snow expert. So I can't tell you with certainty.
• 6:21
  What do you do for a living? I'm snow expert.
• 6:23
  I study snow. I mean, well, that'd be a meteorologist
• 6:26
  almost kind of. Anyways, I would wager it would
• 6:29
  be actually fairly quick, but also still awful
• 6:31
  as you slow as you quickly suffocate. And are
• 6:35
  crushed. There's just not enough. The snow's
• 6:37
  too dense. There's not enough air. I have no
• 6:39
  idea. So much weight on top of you. It's heavy.
• 6:41
  It pushes you around. And, you know, who knows
• 6:43
  how many feet of snow just roll you through,
• 6:45
  jump on, dump on top of you. And then you're
• 6:47
  just stuck 12 feet, you know, down or whatever.
• 6:50
  Plus it could slam you into trees, slam you into
• 6:52
  rocks. You roll around. You don't know which
• 6:53
  way is up. You can start digging and you're actually
• 6:56
  digging the wrong way, which of course they say
• 6:58
  spit. They would say, how do I know this? I don't
• 7:00
  even know how I know this. But if you find yourself
• 7:01
  in this situation, spit and try to figure out
• 7:04
  which way the spit is going. And that's how you
• 7:06
  know which way is up. Because they have found
• 7:08
  people dead who have dug the wrong directions
• 7:12
  trying to get out of an avalanche if they are
• 7:14
  fortunate enough to not get crushed by the weight
• 7:16
  and the pressure of all of the snow. And if they're
• 7:19
  fortunate enough to not get slammed against objects.
• 7:21
  I wouldn't think it would be a bad way to go
• 7:23
  if. You did just like, you know, you whacked
• 7:26
  your head against a tree stump or a rock and
• 7:28
  then you were just out and suffocated. Yeah,
• 7:29
  that'd be a mercy. But if you found yourself
• 7:30
  like everything is settled, the avalanche is
• 7:33
  over and you're alive and you don't know where's
• 7:35
  up. Yeah, that's as bad as it gets. Yeah, that
• 7:38
  would suck. Yeah. Hard, hard pass. That's a hard
• 7:42
  pass. This feels like, like, you know, in high
• 7:46
  school and they'd roll out the TV in front of
• 7:48
  the classroom and they'd be like, what, you know,
• 7:50
  don't do drugs, kids. because any drug will kill
• 7:52
  you this kind of feels like that is like what
• 7:54
  what you don't know about the mountains will
• 7:57
  kill you yes that that would be on the tube tv
• 7:59
  that was ratchet strapped to the to the cart
• 8:02
  on casters you know what i'm talking about i'm
• 8:04
  throwing down but that's what this feels like
• 8:05
  is like in kids if you're not careful the mountains
• 8:08
  will kill you we live up kind of in the mountains
• 8:13
  kind of in the mountains so you need to know
• 8:15
  about snow consult with a snow expert Don't snowboard
• 8:23
  or ski or have fun Fun is dangerous fun is dangerous
• 8:28
  life is dangerous. You should probably just the
• 8:30
  Canadian ten out of ten Canadian doctors agree
• 8:32
  life is dangerous Just kill yourself. They say
• 8:34
  you mean the silver medalist Canadians. Yeah
• 8:37
  suck on that, Canada USA USA that's all right
• 8:42
  they won in curling i think so they've got that
• 8:44
  consolation he did oh i didn't even hear or at
• 8:47
  least they meddled or something i don't know
• 8:49
  good job canada although i did find it really
• 8:51
  hilarious i think we beat the swiss we the americans
• 8:53
  beat the swiss or something and somebody commented
• 8:56
  like it's the most american thing ever to beat
• 8:59
  all the other countries at sports where these
• 9:02
  sports for these other countries are things they
• 9:04
  do 24 seven. Yes. It's like our national identity.
• 9:07
  They're like national sports. And for us, they're
• 9:08
  things we don't think about except for three
• 9:10
  weeks out of the year once every four years.
• 9:12
  We just go there and kick their ass. Nobody cares
• 9:16
  about curling except for three weeks once every
• 9:19
  four years. And we still medal. But like Sweden,
• 9:22
  it's the national pastime, you know. That's so
• 9:25
  true. It's got to be really frustrating. It's
• 9:26
  like one of the most American things to do. It
• 9:28
  really is. Apple pie, big tits, and winning gold
• 9:32
  medals even though we don't care about the sport.
• 9:36
  Speaking of experts and warning us that we're
• 9:39
  all gonna die if we don't follow their expert
• 9:41
  advice, the Panhandle Health, the ever so valuable,
• 9:46
  they care about us citizens and our health, and
• 9:49
  here's their latest public proclamation. Today
• 9:52
  the Panhandle Health District put out an advisory
• 9:54
  warning against the use of kratom. Yeah, that's
• 9:57
  a hot topic right now. All across Pacific Northwest
• 9:59
  being debated in City Council chambers and by
• 10:02
  state lawmakers on Monday morning, the Panhandle
• 10:04
  Health District issued an advisory warning against
• 10:08
  the use of all kratom products, saying it's addictive
• 10:11
  and has a risk of four overdose. The health district
• 10:14
  recommends people especially avoid kratom products
• 10:17
  containing 708. They suggest seeking medical
• 10:21
  advice for side effects, addiction or withdrawal
• 10:23
  symptoms and to report any adverse reactions.
• 10:26
  Well, panhandle health is essentially a smaller,
• 10:29
  less important, but equally self -important version
• 10:32
  of the CDC, whereby everything is an epidemic.
• 10:36
  Everything is a problem. Everything will kill
• 10:39
  you. Everything should be regulated. You know,
• 10:42
  the CDC a couple of years back even had the gall
• 10:45
  to put out that racism yeah was an epidemic was
• 10:49
  a public health issue and an epidemic right that
• 10:52
  gun ownership was a public health issue and an
• 10:55
  epidemic is like so we call it there's actually
• 10:57
  a term for this it's called mission creep and
• 10:59
  it's an issue that goes on across damn near every
• 11:02
  government agency at every level known to man
• 11:04
  is basically once that agency has fulfilled what
• 11:06
  it was supposed to do 10 20 30 40 years ago and
• 11:10
  it has nothing left to do but of course it won't
• 11:13
  and can't die Now it has to find other reasons
• 11:16
  to justify its own existence. And people have
• 11:18
  to find reasons to justify their $100 ,000 a
• 11:21
  year bureaucrat jobs. So these agencies never
• 11:23
  go away. We never stop funding them. And so they
• 11:26
  can just sit there and think and go, well, what
• 11:29
  can we ban next? What can we regulate next? Today's
• 11:33
  hot topic, today's flavor of the month or flavor
• 11:36
  of the day is kratom. How can we manage the public
• 11:39
  harder? But some people say Monday's announcement
• 11:42
  is unfair. Yes, Rogers lives within us alone
• 11:45
  and has been using Kratom for about 10 years
• 11:48
  to help her focus after being diagnosed with
• 11:51
  ADD. According to her, which that's another thing
• 11:54
  to being diagnosed with the phony baloney nonsense
• 11:58
  known as I, I am the gatekeeper of how much attention
• 12:02
  thou shalt be paying to any given topic. And
• 12:04
  I think you should be paying more attention than
• 12:05
  you are. Ergo, you need Pfizer produced amphetamine
• 12:09
  sponsored by Pfizer. We'll see here. Kratom.
• 12:14
  Panhandle health would be all about it. It's
• 12:16
  FDA approved. Have at it. So is bleach. According
• 12:21
  to her, there's a big difference between natural
• 12:24
  kratom and the synthetic variety. Correct. Just
• 12:26
  like... Okay, I'm sorry. You got to break this
• 12:28
  for a second again. Just like everything else,
• 12:31
  it is nuanced. It is complex. The market figures
• 12:34
  out what it wants and also susses out the good
• 12:37
  from the bad. Not with 100 % perfection because
• 12:40
  there's no such thing. Not in this life. But
• 12:42
  it allows people, consumers, the choice and the
• 12:46
  opportunity to pursue other avenues of treatment,
• 12:50
  of cope, of whatever you want to call it. And
• 12:53
  if you want to talk about addiction, well, then
• 12:54
  let's talk about the opioid crisis, which is
• 12:56
  a perfectly legal FDA approved method of cope.
• 13:01
  You know, put that one in the bank and we could
• 13:03
  unpack that one for weeks, months, years. Stop
• 13:06
  taking away our ability to decide for ourselves
• 13:09
  what we want. There are good products out there.
• 13:12
  There are bad products out there people tend
• 13:14
  to figure it out pretty quick especially in the
• 13:16
  age of the internet and the age of the telephone
• 13:18
  and the age of review sites at every where all
• 13:21
  you have to do is a few hours of good research
• 13:24
  and You can typically figure out who's reputable
• 13:26
  and who's not what works and what doesn't it's
• 13:28
  amazing Yeah, I think you're speaking of reckless
• 13:31
  dangerous self -management. Yeah. Yeah, I am
• 13:34
  Basically, what do we call that you used to be
• 13:36
  called rugged individualism? But now that's a
• 13:38
  term nobody uses because it's scary and even
• 13:41
  like conservatives don't use it because apparently
• 13:43
  it's a turnoff now It's I guess just being an
• 13:46
  adult or taking care of oneself I don't know
• 13:48
  like I think I'd rather be embraced by the warmth
• 13:51
  of the Panhandle Health District And having both
• 13:54
  of them love together is a big problem. There
• 13:56
  are people that have had a lot of life change
• 13:59
  with Kratom that have been um in constant pain
• 14:03
  or with other things like that and um and kratom
• 14:06
  has really helped them but unfortunately it's
• 14:08
  kind of getting swept in the same category as
• 14:10
  708 and there needs to be a clear line and distinction
• 14:13
  between the two unfortunately it didn't help
• 14:15
  her with her vocal fry but but at least she's
• 14:19
  making sense like it's really refreshing to have
• 14:22
  somebody say something that makes sense for a
• 14:25
  change be like hey there's a difference and it
• 14:27
  can be helped the good stuff can be helpful Maybe
• 14:30
  we should distinguish between the two. There
• 14:34
  needs to be a clear line and distinction between
• 14:36
  the two. Now, as I mentioned, that's crazy talk.
• 14:39
  Now, as I mentioned, the debate over Kratom crosses
• 14:42
  state lines, Spokane's considering a ban on the
• 14:44
  sale and distribution of it in the city. Meanwhile,
• 14:47
  Idaho lawmakers are considering a bill aiming
• 14:49
  to crack down, crack down on synthetic crack.
• 14:52
  Of course, manage me harder. Manage me harder.
• 14:55
  Daddy crack down. Spokane should focus on banning.
• 14:58
  illegal drugs. It's been working so far for them
• 15:02
  and banning homeless encampments. Spokane should
• 15:05
  focus on that. It's been working so good so far.
• 15:07
  You mean urban campgrounds? From the unhoused?
• 15:12
  It's the unhoused, dude. Come on. So heartless.
• 15:16
  The non -homed. Or do they hang out with the,
• 15:19
  um, with the non -documented or what are they
• 15:21
  calling them? Uh, unauthorized. Oh, you know
• 15:24
  what? Here, I got a perfect one for you. How
• 15:25
  it's about, we just get right back into a follow
• 15:28
  -up. If I could abolish, I'm just going to say
• 15:30
  this right now. If we, we should burn all of
• 15:32
  those buildings down, we panhandle health and
• 15:35
  fire everybody and tell them to go do something
• 15:37
  useful. Like if I could, if I could abolish one
• 15:39
  agency right now, that's on my top five list.
• 15:42
  That, that agency single -handedly squashes so
• 15:45
  much economic opportunity. for people. Oh, well,
• 15:48
  and, you know, luckily they completely, along
• 15:51
  with all the other public health, um, apparatus
• 15:54
  agencies and all the other stuff, completely
• 15:56
  discredited themselves in 2020. They showed themselves
• 15:59
  to not only be like a bumbling force, but actually
• 16:02
  actively malevolent. Like they showed their hatred
• 16:05
  for the citizenry. So, you know, and not everybody
• 16:07
  realized that, of course, but a lot of people
• 16:08
  did. A lot of people didn't. A lot of people
• 16:10
  did. So luckily, the panhandle health can get
• 16:13
  up on their apple crate in the town square and
• 16:14
  make all the proclamations they want. Half the
• 16:17
  people aren't going to listen to them. A quarter
• 16:20
  of the people will listen to them and the other
• 16:22
  quarter will actively do the opposite of what
• 16:24
  they're saying. I'm in that quarter percent.
• 16:26
  Me too. You're in that quarter quartile, I should
• 16:28
  say. It's the same thing with FDA. Like the moment
• 16:30
  somebody says, this is not FDA approved, I typically
• 16:32
  go, oh, good. Okay. I'm more interested. I'm
• 16:35
  going to mainline it. Yeah. Yeah. I'm going to
• 16:37
  just melt it in a spoon and mainline it. All
• 16:39
  right. Here is a follow -up and there's actually,
• 16:41
  believe it or not, there is another term. It's
• 16:44
  evolving faster than ever before. We were even
• 16:46
  saying Illegal alien and undocumented alien and
• 16:49
  undocumented visitor. There's like all these
• 16:51
  changes and if the changes happen so quickly
• 16:52
  There's even another one here and NPR softened
• 16:55
  it even further to Idaho bills seeking to curb
• 16:58
  unauthorized workers are unauthorized workers
• 17:02
  704 would require employers to use e verify the
• 17:06
  federal I mean technically unauthorized worker
• 17:09
  could be a Contractor that doesn't have their
• 17:12
  BNO Licensing it could be a medical professional
• 17:16
  that maybe didn't re up some of their stuff,
• 17:19
  it could be an investments, man, a wealth management
• 17:22
  guy who didn't finish all of their continuing
• 17:24
  education credits last year. I mean, it could
• 17:26
  be a barber who didn't go through 500 hours of
• 17:28
  school and said they went through 350 hours of
• 17:31
  like, this applies to everybody that doesn't
• 17:35
  meet the top standards of any industry that's
• 17:40
  crazy it could be a snow expert that doesn't
• 17:42
  have the proper credential i mean i'm not i never
• 17:44
  was a certified tobacconist technically that
• 17:46
  makes me an unauthorized worker unauthorized
• 17:48
  worker yeah call ice verify the federal program
• 17:52
  that checks potential employees work status Speaking
• 17:55
  in front of the House Business Committee at the
• 17:58
  Capitol yesterday, head of the Idaho Dairymen
• 18:00
  Association, Rick Narrabout, testified against
• 18:03
  the bill. He urged the state to let the federal
• 18:06
  government deal with immigration issues. If the
• 18:09
  state of Idaho creates a patchwork of e -verify
• 18:11
  regulations, employers risk losing access to
• 18:14
  a workforce that could cause significant harm.
• 18:16
  The second, House Bill 700, which... So did he
• 18:19
  not just say like... don't enforce immigration
• 18:22
  because we need the illegals work in our farms.
• 18:24
  That's what he's saying. Well, that's what's
• 18:26
  being said without being said. Yeah. And there's
• 18:30
  an even bigger issue at stake at the national
• 18:33
  level. And we've actually mentioned, you and
• 18:34
  I have touched on this before, is one of the
• 18:36
  interesting arguments for unfettered illegal
• 18:39
  immigration is, well, who's going to mow your
• 18:41
  lawn? Who's going to slap a new roof on your
• 18:44
  house? Who's going to pick your fruit? And if
• 18:47
  would you sit there and think about it for more
• 18:49
  than five seconds, you go, okay, so one of the
• 18:52
  biggest legs of the platform you're standing
• 18:54
  on for unfettered immigration is that without
• 18:59
  black and brown people to do the stuff we don't
• 19:01
  want to do, then the stuff we don't want to do
• 19:03
  will never get done. That's the premise. Yeah.
• 19:05
  Do you, do you not see how racist that like,
• 19:08
  that's even worse. than just being a straight
• 19:10
  up racist. That is these not subtle, but soft
• 19:13
  bigotry of low expectations. It's the same thing
• 19:16
  as saying that voter ID is racist because black
• 19:18
  people and brown people don't know how to get
• 19:20
  an ID. It's the same thing as saying that like
• 19:23
  women are at risk when voter identification rules
• 19:27
  are put in place because they don't know how
• 19:28
  to get an ID. That's crazy. Think about that.
• 19:31
  I mean, she walked into the DMV barefoot and
• 19:34
  pregnant and they pointed at the door. They were
• 19:35
  like, hey, no shoes, no service, lady. We're
• 19:38
  next spring. But when you come back, bring a
• 19:40
  sandwich and we'll talk. I heard I heard a lot
• 19:43
  of this sandwich. No ID growing in this. That's
• 19:47
  a that's a show clip. No sandwich. No, no ID.
• 19:51
  I heard of plenty of a version of this growing
• 19:55
  up in Southern California, where many in our
• 19:58
  sort of families, general orbit and peer group
• 20:01
  had illegals working as mates. And, you know,
• 20:05
  the notion of like, well, You know, if Consuelo
• 20:08
  is not there to clean the toilet, how will the
• 20:10
  toilet get cleaned? These are also the same people.
• 20:13
  Most of them are the same people who will stampede
• 20:16
  in the streets for the it used to be the fight
• 20:18
  for fifteen. Now it's like the fight for forty
• 20:20
  two dollars an hour, you know, because it goes
• 20:23
  up every year. Now, I'm pretty sure it's like
• 20:25
  forty bucks an hour. Now these idiots want for
• 20:27
  basically just breathing air. The minimum wage
• 20:33
  should be basically infinity dollars and I cook
• 20:36
  the fries Therefore I deserve a trillion dollars
• 20:39
  and I basically own the restaurant because I
• 20:41
  cook the fries the owner doesn't do anything
• 20:43
  These are those, you know, these are this is
• 20:45
  how these people think. Yeah So while they're
• 20:47
  campaigning for $42 an hour to cook fries at
• 20:50
  McDonald's They're also telling us that without
• 20:52
  black and brown people crossing the border illegally
• 20:55
  We'll have to pay people a living wage to mow
• 20:57
  the lawn It's so obtuse, hypocritical, and racist.
• 21:02
  It's crazy. If the state of Idaho creates a patchwork
• 21:06
  of e -verify regulations, employers risk losing
• 21:08
  access to a workforce that could cause significant
• 21:10
  harm. The second House Bill 700 would charge
• 21:13
  employers with a misdemeanor for knowingly hiring
• 21:17
  undocumented workers. They always go after the
• 21:20
  employers. Always. This is now. Illegal immigrants
• 21:24
  keep coming because employers hire them. They
• 21:26
  would not come otherwise. It's employers fault.
• 21:30
  Those bastards offering jobs through the committee
• 21:33
  and will be further debated on the House floor.
• 21:36
  All right. Further debate is incoming. There's
• 21:38
  so much stupidity on every side of this. On every
• 21:41
  side as usual. Everyone's wrong. Everyone is
• 21:43
  wrong against it. You know, if you just deregulated
• 21:49
  the dairy industry, then milk would cost half
• 21:54
  maybe and there'd be twice as many dairies and
• 21:57
  we could employ whoever the hell we wanted at
• 21:59
  whatever wage the market agreed on and it would
• 22:02
  be better for everybody. Deregulate? No, no,
• 22:03
  no, we need to crack down because remember raw
• 22:06
  milk is raw sewage. Raw milk? Think of it as
• 22:08
  raw sewage. Yeah, well, you know what makes things
• 22:11
  cheaper? More regulations and making it harder
• 22:14
  to do business. Yeah, always. That always helps
• 22:17
  make things less expensive. You finally learned.
• 22:19
  Good job, government. Yay. Let's switch gears
• 22:23
  once again. It is a slightly longer presentation
• 22:26
  here, but I have a bunch of fun material on it
• 22:29
  So let's just go for it as part of Black History
• 22:32
  Month a night of celebration and recognition
• 22:35
  At the Black Excellent Gala held Saturday night
• 22:38
  at jump Tonight we were celebrating Black Excellence
• 22:43
  Gala focused on six local trailblazers individuals
• 22:47
  recognize for their contributions to Idaho and
• 22:49
  the black they hold this conference on a basketball
• 22:52
  court Yeah, and Van Halen was the was the headliner
• 22:56
  community. They are folks that have contributed
• 22:59
  to our. I don't know why you picked basketball.
• 23:01
  I mean, of all the sports, you know, I don't
• 23:04
  get it. I'm a big fan of basketball, America.
• 23:05
  Oh, yeah. contributed to our community in Idaho.
• 23:09
  And so we just want to celebrate them, give them
• 23:12
  their flowers and just thank them for their contributions
• 23:15
  to Idaho, not only Idaho, but to our black community
• 23:19
  and to black history and to just making Idaho
• 23:21
  a better place. If I was black in Idaho, I would
• 23:25
  be like, please don't, I don't want your flowers.
• 23:27
  I just want you to leave me alone. We're going
• 23:29
  to get to that. And to just making Idaho a better
• 23:31
  place. Among those honored, Sheree Buckner Webb,
• 23:34
  Idaho's first elected. Yeah, the hyphen. Is that
• 23:39
  just all the rage or what? It is among a certain
• 23:42
  political persuasion. Idaho's first elected African
• 23:45
  -American state legislator. African -American.
• 23:48
  I looked her up. She's a fifth generation Idahoan.
• 23:52
  Africa. Idaho's first elected African -American
• 23:55
  state legislator. And Dr. Mamie Oliver, a longtime
• 23:59
  educator who has spent decades teaching and mentoring
• 24:02
  in the Treasure Valley. She's 90 years old and
• 24:09
  so to celebrate. Also being president of the
• 24:13
  Idaho a times we have unsung her know anything
• 24:19
  about and w sure that we're recogniz say the
• 24:23
  gala continues t creating space to uplift otherwise
• 24:28
  go unheard hono continuing to build communi For
• 24:35
  one, this is a mainstream media deconstruction
• 24:38
  show. So what was starkly stark raving missing
• 24:44
  from this basically puff piece celebrating the
• 24:49
  honoring of the quote black community? Did you
• 24:53
  notice there was nothing political mentioned
• 24:56
  at all? No political parties, no political leanings.
• 25:00
  Do you remember how NPR sounds when they're covering
• 25:03
  organizations that lean right? conservative christian
• 25:07
  policy group the far -right activists are right
• 25:10
  now they didn't mention that these are all democrats
• 25:14
  are left they're all lefties yes they are the
• 25:17
  the hyphenated name lady who's the fifth generation
• 25:20
  idahoan but she's from africa democrat the n
• 25:24
  -double -a -c -p commie this is a this was a
• 25:28
  gathering of it wasn't a gathering of blacks,
• 25:30
  it was a gathering of left wingers. So it's again,
• 25:33
  it's that media sleight of hand where they take
• 25:36
  a political issue and they turn it into a race
• 25:39
  issue. You have countless a number of whites
• 25:43
  who agree with them and blacks who don't. It's
• 25:46
  not a black or white issue. I've been waiting
• 25:49
  to say this all day. I do not support I do not
• 25:53
  celebrate Black History Month. I think that that's
• 25:56
  the dumbest thing on planet Earth. When are we
• 25:58
  going to be done with this divisive stuff? We
• 26:00
  don't need a Black History Month. Every day,
• 26:04
  every month is Black History Month. American
• 26:06
  history is Black history. And y 'all are still
• 26:09
  falling for this stuff. They picked the shortest
• 26:11
  month out of the entire year. The month with
• 26:14
  the least amount of days. Y 'all talking about
• 26:17
  Black History Month. I never actually thought
• 26:20
  of that. That's funny. And you think it's a win?
• 26:22
  It ain't a win. We're Americans. We're past that.
• 26:26
  It's over. The Civil War was fought. The Emancipation
• 26:30
  Proclamation was signed. We're American citizens
• 26:32
  just like anybody else. And we need to start
• 26:35
  living like it in this country. Enough with this
• 26:37
  black and white crap. Black history is American
• 26:40
  history. The end. This is the ongoing theme here.
• 26:44
  Where'd you pull this? Which is... This is like
• 26:45
  a... Who's saying this? Oh, I just googled Basketball
• 26:49
  American against Black History Month and it came
• 26:51
  right up. A million of these came right up. But
• 26:54
  see, here's the thing, you have the hubris, I
• 26:59
  guess humans have hubris in general, but in particular,
• 27:02
  the political left is very hubristic in that
• 27:04
  they always claim to be speaking on behalf of
• 27:06
  an entire group, a racial group, a cultural group,
• 27:10
  whatever. So they have this gathering and they're
• 27:12
  like, we're speaking on behalf of blacks in Idaho.
• 27:17
  No, you're speaking on behalf of the left in
• 27:19
  Idaho, but they use that rate. And I don't want
• 27:21
  to repeat myself, but they're using race to supplement
• 27:23
  for political issue because that's how you can
• 27:26
  sort of shut down opposition because now because
• 27:29
  I'm pushing back. I'm I'm not for blacks. Is
• 27:31
  that it? Yeah. But when you're dealing, you're
• 27:33
  talking about people who live their lives and
• 27:35
  do everything through the lens of race, race,
• 27:39
  gender, race, gender and class and wrapped wrapped
• 27:42
  all around into politics. Like, that is the lens
• 27:45
  through which they live their lives, that they
• 27:47
  do everything, they see everything, they commentate
• 27:49
  on everything. So it's intrinsic and it's inextricable.
• 27:55
  You cannot separate them. Right. And as a media
• 27:58
  deconstruction angle, the media abets the political
• 28:03
  left in this way by presenting the story as if
• 28:07
  it's something about race or culture. And they
• 28:10
  omit the politics when you hear them insert the
• 28:14
  politics as sort of explosively as they can,
• 28:18
  far right, Christian, pow, they do that every
• 28:21
  time the quote right is involved and they omit
• 28:23
  it when the left is involved. It's actually ingenious
• 28:25
  because it's not quite overt yellow journalism,
• 28:29
  but it is lies by omission and it's a master
• 28:33
  class in crafting the narrative. Indeed. And
• 28:37
  that's why the mainstream media had been so successful
• 28:40
  for so long. Thank God for the internet and alternative
• 28:42
  media through which now we have ways to get around
• 28:47
  it. They don't control the narrative the way
• 28:49
  they used to. Thank heavens. I would like to
• 28:52
  also address the term African American because
• 28:56
  you it is not a pro black quote unquote thing
• 29:00
  to use the term African American. It's a pro
• 29:03
  left thing. This is again another political issue,
• 29:06
  not race issue. Allow me to illustrate. I also
• 29:09
  don't say African Americans. I find it cumbersome
• 29:12
  and confusing. Just in case you don't immediately
• 29:14
  recognize the voice, this is the man from the
• 29:17
  future who just came here to warn us and was
• 29:19
  wondering why we were all laughing at what he
• 29:21
  was saying. This is not funny. I'm just here
• 29:23
  to warn you. I find it cumbersome and confusing.
• 29:26
  Which part of Africa are we talking about? Egypt?
• 29:29
  Egypt is in Africa, but Egyptians aren't black.
• 29:31
  They're like the people in India. They're dark
• 29:33
  brown white people, but they're Africans. So
• 29:36
  why wouldn't an Egyptian who becomes a U .S.
• 29:38
  citizen be called an African American? The same
• 29:41
  would apply to South Africa. Suppose a white
• 29:42
  racist from South Africa becomes an American
• 29:45
  citizen. Couldn't he call himself an African
• 29:47
  American? Ooh, I like that. If for no other reason
• 29:51
  than just to bother black people. And what about
• 29:56
  a black person born in South Africa who becomes
• 29:58
  an American citizen? Is he an African American
• 30:00
  or is he a South African American? Or is he simply
• 30:02
  a South African American African American? You
• 30:06
  know, it's just so much more tedious liberal
• 30:09
  labeling. Liberals should be taught that labels
• 30:11
  divide people, and I think we could probably
• 30:13
  do with fewer labels, not more. Now, a lot of...
• 30:17
  Yeah, but can't we all just get along while we
• 30:19
  also separate ourselves into categories and subcategories?
• 30:22
  A lot of, quote, liberals who are actually psychotic
• 30:25
  authoritarians, they're the opposite of liberals,
• 30:26
  but they don't think it's dividing people, even
• 30:31
  though it is. The string puller... tiny apparatus
• 30:35
  string puller set absolutely know it's dividing
• 30:37
  people which is why it's crafted the way it's
• 30:39
  crafted but most of the boots on the ground the
• 30:41
  the dumbbell hoy ploy they don't realize that
• 30:44
  that's or am i giving them too much credit uh
• 30:48
  i think i think it probably applies to little
• 30:50
  credit i think it applies to some of them and
• 30:52
  i think it doesn't apply to some of them i i
• 30:54
  tell you it's a mixed bag of nuts i think some
• 30:55
  people know very well what they're doing and
• 30:57
  they're okay with it and some people are unwitting
• 30:59
  about it i really do mixed bag of nuts I'm always
• 31:02
  going to be known as a black American. I can't
• 31:04
  call myself an African -American because when
• 31:06
  they want to separate us, then they say, we're
• 31:10
  African -American. But remember this, when I'm
• 31:12
  competing in the Olympics, I didn't compete on
• 31:14
  an African -American Olympic team. I competed
• 31:16
  on an American Olympic team. So don't separate
• 31:20
  me when you want to separate me. Finally, I would
• 31:23
  like to play a little history of the term and
• 31:25
  sort of when it came into sort of political correct
• 31:29
  prominence because it's not that old. Do you
• 31:32
  sort of know? I didn't, by the way, until I kind
• 31:34
  of was looking into this, like when it started
• 31:36
  to be used in widespread parlance. At the same
• 31:38
  time, affirmative action took hold in the early
• 31:41
  90s. I believe you are. You're you're really
• 31:44
  close because they use the term in the six in
• 31:46
  the 50s and 60s and during the civil rights actions.
• 31:51
  Actions is the right term, but the civil rights
• 31:52
  movement, if you will. Negro was the term that
• 31:55
  everybody could use. That was the acceptable
• 31:57
  term. I mean, what a far cry we are from there
• 31:59
  now because, you know, you say that word and
• 32:01
  people get their bristles up pretty quick, even
• 32:03
  though it's still a pretty benign term. But we've
• 32:06
  got and I would say or late 80s, early 90s, you
• 32:08
  had affirmative action rear its ugly head for
• 32:10
  the first real time. And then you had, I think
• 32:13
  African American that that term coined around
• 32:15
  that same time. You did. You're right on it.
• 32:18
  And it was coined as the result of just a few
• 32:21
  people. And it was very deliberate. but for mainstream
• 32:24
  america a major turning point came in the late
• 32:28
  1980s in 1988 a group of years including reverend
• 32:33
  jesse jackson and representatives from the wcp
• 32:36
  met to discuss the national black agenda it was
• 32:40
  here that jack could anyone could you imagine
• 32:43
  if like if If there was a conference called the
• 32:46
  National White Agenda, could you imagine that?
• 32:49
  Oh my gosh. That's a point that didn't get made
• 32:51
  in the first thing where the first report about
• 32:53
  the quote, black celebration that just happened
• 32:56
  in Idaho. If you replace any of that with white,
• 33:00
  it would sound insane. And it would actually
• 33:02
  confirm all of the people who actually don't
• 33:04
  know anything about North Idaho or Idaho in general.
• 33:07
  And they were like, oh, it's all the white supremacists.
• 33:09
  Is that right? Because imagine hearing that report.
• 33:11
  Yes, the white award. So we just want to acknowledge
• 33:13
  all the whites that have contributed to the award
• 33:16
  for the whitest Idaho and goes to and here's
• 33:19
  here's the flowers for whitey. peers catapulted
• 33:26
  the term African American into the country's
• 33:28
  lexicon. Reverend Jackson said. So they did it
• 33:31
  to themselves. Yes, they absolutely did. And
• 33:33
  it was deliberate, like the divisive thing that
• 33:36
  we've been talking about or divisive, whatever
• 33:38
  you pronounce that. But absolutely, it was fomented
• 33:40
  deliberately because Jackson is a race hustler.
• 33:43
  Oh, yeah. Of course, it was done deliberately.
• 33:45
  That's how he makes his living. He's dead, you
• 33:46
  know. Oh, is he? Oh, the late Jackson. Well,
• 33:49
  good riddance. Jackson and his peers. four or
• 33:54
  five days ago. Oh, he just died. Yeah, no recent.
• 33:57
  Very recent. Oh, I didn't even know. Jesse Jackson
• 33:59
  was in 90. Wow. Yeah. Made the let's see. What
• 34:03
  is today? Today's Tuesday. So it was like last
• 34:05
  Wednesday or Thursday. I saw it on the news.
• 34:08
  Wow. Okay. Yeah. Damn. Met to discuss the national
• 34:13
  black agenda. national left agenda catapulted
• 34:17
  the term african -american into the country's
• 34:19
  lexicon reverend jackson said to be called african
• 34:23
  -americans has cultural integrity it puts us
• 34:27
  in our proper historical context but there he
• 34:30
  was just gonna say puts us in our proper place
• 34:32
  almost i thought that was coming My uppity peers
• 34:38
  and I just had a conference and I mean honestly
• 34:41
  though, again the hubris, he's getting up in
• 34:43
  front at a podium with like eight microphones
• 34:46
  at it and speaking up a half of the blacks. Could
• 34:48
  you imagine if one of us stood up at the national
• 34:52
  white agenda meeting and was like, from now on
• 34:56
  all of us are to be called Euro Americans. But
• 35:01
  I'm from Russia, shut up you. Every ethnic group
• 35:05
  in our in this country has a reference to some
• 35:07
  land base, some historical cultural base. African
• 35:11
  Americans have hit that level of cultural maturity.
• 35:15
  Jackson stated that other races could connect
• 35:17
  their heritage to their mother countries with
• 35:20
  a sense of pride and acceptance. The term rose
• 35:23
  to prominence because it was considered more
• 35:25
  appropriate than black or colored. It was considered
• 35:29
  that by who? The Council of The black agenda,
• 35:34
  I guess. I don't know. Dude, it must be awesome
• 35:38
  to be able to just Dane yourself the arbiter
• 35:41

  huge value add as well as we continue to mention
• 37:38
  Let's start with Jack Kramer who donated $69
• 37:44
  Nice Jack has donated before but this time Jack
• 37:47
  wrote in a note and it is a doozy Jack says I
• 37:52
  found episode 13 and 14 created a master class
• 37:55
  in irony in episode 13 at 53 minutes Paul discusses
• 38:00
  not being superstitious about the number 13 so
• 38:03
  much that it's his number on the basketball court
• 38:06
  episode 14 at 3 minutes 20 seconds starts with
• 38:10
  the terrible news that Paul ruptured his Achilles
• 38:13
  playing basketball. Maybe it's time to be a little
• 38:18
  stitious. So, you know, he and then he says the
• 38:21
  show has been great boys. Keep it up. Hoping
• 38:23
  for a speedy recovery for Paul signed Jack Kramer,
• 38:26
  who sent that from his bake a light phone. Well,
• 38:28
  Jack, that would be the slowest of slow burns
• 38:31
  ever. If I mean, that's been my jersey number
• 38:34
  since I started playing basketball in the fourth
• 38:36
  grade. I was nine years old. Mentioned it on
• 38:38
  episode. So take a listen to become an executive
• 38:42
  producer of an episode of no ID. Which today
• 38:45
  is number 13. I considered doing like the, Oh,
• 38:48
  should we skip 13 and just go straight to episode
• 38:50
  14? Like you hear about those office buildings.
• 38:52
  Like, well, there's no 13th floor, you know,
• 38:54
  that sort of thing. And then I thought, no, I'm
• 38:57
  not a superstitious idiot. This is just episode
• 38:59
  number 13. And something goes terribly wrong.
• 39:02
  My Jersey number. So if we skipped it, I would
• 39:05
  have been a little bummed out. Is it really a
• 39:08
  good number? Yeah. It's my Jersey number. When
• 39:10
  I'm out there playing shooting ball or basketball,
• 39:13
  my two main sports. Yeah. It's a good number.
• 39:18
  You know what? I'm going to die. I will die on
• 39:20
  that hill. I will give an Achilles tendon to
• 39:22
  that hill. The very next episode. And actually
• 39:27
  Western medicine will be a huge help to me momentarily
• 39:31
  because I ruptured my tendon, my Achilles tendon
• 39:36
  in my left leg on Monday night. And I got to
• 39:40
  tell you, that's a negative five stars. Would
• 39:43
  not recommend. I'm not superstitious, but I'm
• 39:49
  I am a little spacious excellent catch by Jack
• 39:53
  way to go Jack how Bell for you, sir Crazy and
• 39:58
  but and and tech textbook Paul just digging his
• 40:01
  heels in I'm gonna continue to wear 13 not you
• 40:04
  know what? I'll bust my other Achilles. What
• 40:05
  do you think about that? I am digging my heels
• 40:07
  in I'd even do that on purpose man You get a
• 40:12
  bell Amazing. Thank you, Jack, for your contribution.
• 40:16
  We really appreciate it. We do. Yes. And that
• 40:18
  is major value return. Not only a great catch
• 40:20

• 43:25
  but I'm keeping it. On behalf of all Jews. F
• 43:27
  you very much. On behalf of all Italians, forget
• 43:31
  about it. Second half of show. Let's start. You
• 43:43
  know, everyone's kind of talking about the low
• 43:45
  snowpack. We've covered it. Everyone's covering
• 43:48
  it. Everyone's talking about it. It's not snowing
• 43:50
  up here. The winter that's going to scare off
• 43:52
  all the Californians has yet to hit. And it's
• 43:55
  actually only going in the other direction. Alas.
• 43:57
  Our mild winter in Idaho has caused all sorts
• 44:00
  of issues and challenges for bee populations
• 44:03
  and we're not just talking honey. All of this
• 44:06
  impact everybody. Beekeepers are more than concerned
• 44:09
  about the warm weather we've seen so far this
• 44:12
  winter for these insects. You know what this
• 44:14
  is actually I didn't anticipate this but now
• 44:16
  I'm thinking about it this is a little bit of
• 44:17
  an ask Paul I wonder because this um this beekeeper
• 44:20
  who I believe is like the official beekeeper
• 44:23
  of some Idaho City I forget reminded me very
• 44:26
  specifically of a character from a movie and
• 44:29
  I wonder if you will have the same thought. It
• 44:31
  may already look and feel like spring but when
• 44:34
  they leave their hive to hunt for pollen they
• 44:36
  won't find any and that disruption to their natural
• 44:39
  hibernation cycle can be deadly. Bees are 100
• 44:43
  % needed to pollinate those fruit trees and other
• 44:47
  blooming plants but If they don't make it through
• 44:50
  the winter, there's no bees there to pollinate
• 44:52
  come spring, and that's gonna be a big issue.
• 44:54
  Hannah pointed out that if you lose bees, farmers
• 44:56
  and fruit growers risk losing harvests, meaning
• 44:59
  a mild winter can be a deal breaker for commercial
• 45:02
  beekeepers. It's gonna be more expensive for
• 45:05
  vegetable or fruit, and then it's gonna cost
• 45:09
  more to replenish the stock of bees, which is
• 45:13
  a fairly easy task, but it takes time and money.
• 45:18
  So we still have a queen, since there's baby
• 45:21
  eggs, pollinating either some early crops, some
• 45:25
  fruit trees, and even a lot of flowers inside
• 45:28
  your garden, which I think everybody gets to
• 45:31
  benefit from the bees. That's what I like about
• 45:34
  the bees. The only thing that's come into mind
• 45:36
  is, very nice, my wife. No. I don't know, hit
• 45:40
  me with it. You're not far off. Let's finish
• 45:42
  the clip. We're almost there. That's what I like
• 45:44
  about the bees. Some people may not like dandelions,
• 45:46
  but... It's one of the first great resources
• 45:51
  for nectars and pollen for bees. Dandelions are
• 45:54
  awesome. They will continue to monitor the situation
• 45:56
  right through the spring. Healthy bees, happy
• 46:00
  bees. It definitely is a problem. It is a problem.
• 46:03
  And actually dandelions are one of those things
• 46:04
  that in suburbia people treat like weeds. They
• 46:07
  are incredible natural herbs. There's a lot of
• 46:11
  applications. Dannylands, they are actually quite
• 46:13
  healthy and you can do you can consume them in
• 46:15
  a lot of different ways. Dannylands are incredible.
• 46:17
  Give me an example. Dannyland root tea is incredible.
• 46:21
  It can feel a little bit like coffee, but it
• 46:24
  has a lot of great properties to it. Of course,
• 46:25
  you can eat the flowers, you can eat the stems,
• 46:28
  you can turn them into salads, you can grind
• 46:30
  them up and powder it up. They have a lot of
• 46:33
  good health properties. There's a lot of ways
• 46:36
  to consume them. So here is the character reminded
• 46:40
  me of. It was the the accent. He's very in tune
• 46:43
  with the animals. Heinz gets velvet. I am trainer
• 46:47
  of dolphins. You want to talk to the dolphin,
• 46:49
  you talk to me. You know what movie that's from?
• 46:51
  I do not. That's Ace Ventura. Oh, wow. It's Jim
• 46:54
  Carrey, like trying to distract the reporters
• 46:56
  by pretending to be the dolphin trainer because
• 46:58
  the dolphin's missing. And it was this totally
• 47:00
  it's this archetype. It's like the you know,
• 47:03
  he's he's he's from some unnamed country that
• 47:05
  isn't this one and he's he's very in tune with
• 47:07
  the animals you know healthy bees happy bees
• 47:11
  to train the dolphin you must think like the
• 47:14
  dolphin you must be getting inside the dolphin
• 47:16
  said i don't know why that popped into my head
• 47:19
  what can i say i like it i like it here is uh
• 47:22
  one more um quote report about the lack of snowpack
• 47:27
  water managers across the region leaned in to
• 47:30
  yesterday's northwest drought and climate outlook
• 47:33
  and The news was not good. At this point in the
• 47:38
  water year in the in the winter season, we don't
• 47:40
  expect that the snowpack will recover to its
• 47:43
  near normal values. And that is climatologist
• 47:46
  Larry O 'Neill and pointing to our snowpack.
• 47:50
  He said there was slim chance of recovering our
• 47:53
  statewide. normal. What is he a snow expert?
• 47:57
  He's undocumented man. He doesn't have the right
• 47:59
  credentials. He's an unauthorized snow expert.
• 48:01
  I keep going back to the documented man. Dude,
• 48:03
  hey, move on. Undocumented was like six months
• 48:05
  ago, dude. So Idaho is really bumping along its
• 48:09
  record low and has been doing so over the last
• 48:11
  couple of weeks. And you look at previous low
• 48:13
  snow years in Idaho. This is one of the worst
• 48:17
  and it's just ahead of 2001 and just behind 2010.
• 48:21
  And meteorologist Aaron Peters was looking at
• 48:24
  the extended outlook. That is to say the months
• 48:26
  stretching through the spring and even into the
• 48:29
  early summer. Again, this maybe isn't such rosy
• 48:32
  news. We're looking at below normal precipitation,
• 48:35
  but it is there on the below normal side and
• 48:38
  then above normal temperatures. So this is for
• 48:40
  April, May and June. In a nutshell, dry to dry.
• 48:45
  And to warm that while we've got plenty of precipitation
• 48:49
  in today's forecast rain in the valley snow in
• 48:52
  the mountains But by the end of this week things
• 48:55
  are expected to dry out. Oh, there you go. Well
• 48:58
  That is not good news. Not good. I've lived here
• 49:02
  pretty much I'm from here. So my whole life except
• 49:04
  for the few years. I ran off to college and whatnot
• 49:06
  and This definitely anecdotally I could tell
• 49:10
  you it's one of the Least amount of snowpack
• 49:13
  we've ever had for sure now up where I'm at an
• 49:16
  hour and a half north We did get gosh four inches
• 49:21
  last week Yeah, nothing. You guys didn't get
• 49:24
  it down here. We got it up there We got a dusting
• 49:26
  but it was it was gone quickly We got at least
• 49:28
  four inches and it's it sticks where I live it
• 49:31
  definitely sticks a lot longer, too So that snow
• 49:33
  will put unless it rains all over it Which it
• 49:35
  might but if it doesn't we'll have that snow
• 49:37
  until the end of March beginning of April I'm
• 49:40
  hoping we do but that doesn't help things down
• 49:42
  here is the problem and you know you got the
• 49:44
  aquifer you're trying to replenish and that's
• 49:46
  a problem you've got the snowpack needing to
• 49:49
  stay up in the mountains and keep things greener
• 49:50
  up there so we don't have the forest fires so
• 49:52
  that's a problem of course if you fly fish like
• 49:54
  i do you want you know more water in the rivers
• 49:58
  is always good and that's going to be a problem
• 50:00
  too so yeah it's not great news but we survived
• 50:04
  it before like you said oh one in 2010 again
• 50:07
  low years too and so are they fun no will we
• 50:10
  get through it Yeah. This is something that I
• 50:13
  experienced growing up in Southern California,
• 50:15
  too, where it was perpetually we're in a drought,
• 50:17
  we're in a drought, we're in a drought. I think
• 50:19
  California has been in a drought for like three
• 50:20
  decades straight. Year after year after year
• 50:22
  after year was always the same story. And it
• 50:23
  was always like, don't wash your car. You know,
• 50:26
  if it's yellow, let it mellow. If it's brown,
• 50:29
  flush it down. Which, by the way, I have a I
• 50:32
  don't know if I should mention who it is exactly,
• 50:33
  but somebody I know well who That propaganda
• 50:37
  was so effective to, you know, whatever, 10 year
• 50:40
  old her, whenever she was being hammered with
• 50:41
  it, the men, and she was in her most impressionable,
• 50:44
  still to this day, well, well into we're approaching
• 50:46
  40 years old, still doesn't flush that effing
• 50:49
  toilet when she takes a leak. It's crazy. There's
• 50:52
  something to be said for, you know, maybe a couple
• 50:55
  of times before you before you flush it down.
• 50:57
  I don't know. It's just efficient, I suppose.
• 50:59
  To California being in a perpetual drought for
• 51:02
  30 years, 40 years, though. The vast majority
• 51:04
  of that is self -inflicted. Of course it is.
• 51:08
  In Idaho, up here, it's not self -inflicted the
• 51:11
  way it is down there. That is very true, yeah.
• 51:13
  And absolutely 100 % a byproduct, a direct product
• 51:18
  of bad policy. Yep. And I always like, well,
• 51:24
  not always because it took me until a little
• 51:26
  later in my life before I learned or realized
• 51:29
  that... Oh, AG is using all the water anyway.
• 51:32
  Like, I mean, not washing your car, flushing
• 51:34
  your toilet, it's a joke. AG takes 80 % of the
• 51:37
  water, or whatever the number is, is very, very
• 51:38
  high. Like, you aren't doing anything as a residential
• 51:41
  consumer. It's sort of like thinking that you
• 51:43
  and I move the needle when it comes to emission,
• 51:46
  like CO2 emissions or whatnot. Right, what's
• 51:48
  that? Meanwhile, in the Pacific... ring of fire,
• 51:51
  a volcano pops off and undoes everything in five
• 51:55
  seconds, which you and I could have mitigated
• 51:57
  in our lives. Some little baby hill in Iceland
• 52:00
  blows up and undoes 20 years of our quote efforts.
• 52:04
  One economic elite goes to the World Economic
• 52:07
  Forum in Davos on their private jet. and uses
• 52:11
  more fuel, emits more CO2 than you and I will
• 52:15
  in a lifetime in one plane ride. Well, in their
• 52:17
  defense, they did try to hitch a ride on Epstein's
• 52:20
  plane, but then they learned that it was out
• 52:22
  of commission, so they just took their own. It
• 52:23
  turns out it's expensive to travel to islands.
• 52:25
  In a rideshare when you can, you know? It's what
• 52:28
  responsible citizens do. The planes are cheap.
• 52:29
  It's the jet fuel that gets you. Jet A, man.
• 52:33
  Let's move along from the drought here or what
• 52:36
  I guess to either I'm still stuck in California
• 52:38
  mode whatever we're calling it lack of snowpack
• 52:40
  and move right along to the lower elevations
• 52:43
  in Post Falls where? The City Council made a
• 52:48
  oh boy the mainstream really didn't like the
• 52:50
  decision it made I know what we're gonna talk
• 52:51
  about next This is exciting a federal holiday
• 52:54
  meant to celebrate the end of slavery across
• 52:56
  America will no longer be recognized here in
• 52:59
  Okay, you see how they started right off the
• 53:01
  bat just immediately right off the bat meant
• 53:04
  to celebrate the end of slavery. Post fall city
• 53:06
  council like slavery. How could anybody, how
• 53:10
  could you possibly think to go against not celebrating
• 53:15
  the end of slavery? The far right Klu Klux Klan
• 53:18
  is in post fall. They're pro slavery obviously.
• 53:22
  Slavery across America will no longer be recognized
• 53:25
  here in post falls Idaho. City leaders, leaders,
• 53:28
  leaders say the holiday schedule is always subject
• 53:30
  to change. However, Juneteenth will no longer
• 53:33
  be observed as a city holiday. Hi, Luca. Hi,
• 53:38
  Malloy. Hey, again, not against Columbus Day.
• 53:41
  Just would like to see him both recognized stick
• 53:44
  leader. Hi, Mosby. Hi, Ziegler. Motion passes.
• 53:50
  Thank you. Mayor Randy Westland called for the
• 53:52
  change and for the reinstatement of Columbus
• 53:55
  Day throughout the city, which I believe is a
• 53:57
  more appropriate holiday honoring our American
• 53:59
  heritage. My own view is that Juneteenth is something
• 54:02
  that nobody had heard of until five years ago
• 54:04
  and was actually political purposes. And so I'm
• 54:07
  not in favor of having that in. However, this
• 54:09
  viewpoint was not shared unanimously. Council
• 54:12
  members Joe Malloy and Nathan Zeigler said while
• 54:15
  they understand wanting to celebrate Columbus
• 54:17
  Day, they also believe Juneteenth is just as
• 54:20
  important because it was important moment with
• 54:23
  ending slavery across the country. So I don't
• 54:26
  know if you consider doing it every other year.
• 54:30
  We're going to alternate holidays. Come on. What,
• 54:34
  what are we 12 years old? This is exactly it.
• 54:38
  Okay. Okay. You get, you get half the kids half
• 54:40
  the year and I get half the kids the other year,
• 54:42
  whatever. This is, this is funny, but it's holidays.
• 54:44
  Like we're adults, right? I thought we're adults,
• 54:48
  but we still want double Christmas presents.
• 54:50
  Don't we? I think both are very relevant to our,
• 54:54
  our history. They are not out or was more. or
• 54:57
  was made less relevant, doesn't make it relevant
• 55:00
  to today. Both Maloy and Ziegler pushed for both
• 55:03
  holidays to be recognized saying they are not
• 55:06
  mutually exclusive. Mayor Westland denied that
• 55:09
  request with council member Mark Luka adding
• 55:11
  there are other days to celebrate civil rights
• 55:13
  like Martin Luther King Jr. Day. James McDay,
• 55:16
  the founder of the Kootenai County branch of
• 55:18
  the NAACP adds this decision does not only affect
• 55:21
  people. Now notice again, they talk to somebody
• 55:24
  from the NAACP, but do they talk to anybody else,
• 55:28
  right? Not only is it just presenting the one
• 55:31
  side they fail to mention that the NAACP is left
• 55:34
  -wing commie is a political organization Kootenai
• 55:38
  County branch of the NAACP adds this decision
• 55:41
  does not only affect people today, but generations
• 55:44
  to come in North Idaho Yeah, this thing that
• 55:47
  didn't exist until two seconds ago outside of
• 55:49
  Texas now we can we gonna live without it How
• 55:51
  are we gonna like black people are basically
• 55:53
  slaves again in Post Falls? Well, because the
• 55:55
  Klu Klux Klan City Council is pro -slavery. Did
• 55:58
  you hear the beginning of the report? I heard
• 55:59
  it. People today, but generations to come in
• 56:02
  North Idaho. Why can't everyone be included in
• 56:07
  the celebration without the representation? We
• 56:11
  are perpetuating a negative. Juneteenth commemorates
• 56:14
  the... Did you understand that at all? Not very
• 56:16
  well, no. The audio quality is not great because
• 56:18
  he was like on Skype or something like that.
• 56:20
  But I don't, I listened to it a few times. I
• 56:22
  have no idea what the hell the guy is saying.
• 56:24
  in the celebration without the representation
• 56:28
  we are perpetuating a negative word salad that's
• 56:31
  what that is the 18 people like that who have
• 56:33
  jobs like that are experts in word salad like
• 56:36
  they say words the words sound deep and meaningful
• 56:39
  and they're big words with multiple syllables
• 56:41
  that you string them all together. But then again,
• 56:43
  if you if you, man, I'll tell you what, there's
• 56:45
  a fella named Russell Mann, who's part of the
• 56:47
  Coeur d 'Alene cart, the downtown cartel, just
• 56:49
  look up any of his posts on Facebook, you guys
• 56:51
  want to know the definition of word salad in
• 56:54
  dictionary, look it up and Russell Mann's picture
• 56:56
  is going to be right there. Just get on Facebook
• 56:57
  and watch what that guy posts. Word salad to
• 57:00
  the max. You sound smart, but you're actually
• 57:02
  an idiot. And if you just take five seconds to
• 57:06
  think about what did this person actually say?
• 57:07
  Oh, nothing. It is a talent. Credit where credit
• 57:11
  is due to do it successfully and have people
• 57:13
  take you seriously. That's a gift. It is, but
• 57:16
  it's kind of like, it's not the gift you want.
• 57:20
  and that it is Juneteenth commemorates the 1865
• 57:24
  announcement of the abolition of slavery in Texas,
• 57:27
  freeing close to 250 ,000 slaves. The announcement
• 57:30
  came two years after President Abraham Lincoln
• 57:33
  emancipated all enslaved African Americans across
• 57:35
  the country. Proclamation that Lincoln put out
• 57:38
  three years into the Civil War because he didn't
• 57:40
  actually care about ending slavery or freeing
• 57:42
  the slaves, and he's on record as saying I wish
• 57:44
  I could send them all back. Don't bother us with
• 57:48
  your historical context. Oh, I'm sorry. Excuse
• 57:50
  me for knowing American history, but so you've
• 57:53
  got a guy like General Lee Lee who literally
• 57:55
  said if I could make it so the war never happens
• 57:58
  and we could all be equal I would right now like
• 58:01
  And then you had Abraham Lincoln go, I don't
• 58:03
  really care about all that. If I could send them
• 58:04
  back, I would decide. Just want to keep the union
• 58:06
  together. That's my goal. Yeah. Then issued the
• 58:09
  proclamation three years into the war because
• 58:11
  he's like, well, is there a way we can speed
• 58:13
  things up? Maybe this will help. And then, and
• 58:16
  then was able to go, look, we, we have that.
• 58:18
  Don't try it. Etiquette. I have the moral high
• 58:20
  ground. There's more far right commentary from
• 58:23
  Paul Banducci. With the growing population in
• 58:26
  North Idaho now, more than ever, cities like
• 58:29
  Post Falls should be taking steps forward rather
• 58:31
  than backwards. Right. Without Juneteenth, blacks
• 58:35
  are are not safe in Post Falls. See, they're
• 58:38
  progressive. You know what? They were shielded
• 58:40
  by Juneteenth. You know how this works? Like
• 58:42
  I was going to be racist and go find one and
• 58:45
  I don't know, do something racist. But now blocked
• 58:47
  by June by Juneteenth. Oh, crap. Now we can't
• 58:51
  do it. It actually, it actually like you, you
• 58:53
  move toward them, but then it flings you backwards,
• 58:56
  like five feet. You just go skidding under your
• 58:58
  butt, you know? Yeah. Ideological force field.
• 59:00
  I don't even know. What do we do? Forward rather
• 59:02
  than backwards. See, and that's the thing. They're
• 59:04
  progressives. So you know what that makes us?
• 59:06
  Regressive. Far right. Far right. Regressive.
• 59:09
  See how that works. Idaho now more than ever.
• 59:11
  Cities like Post Falls should be taking steps
• 59:13
  forward rather than backwards. Show some respect.
• 59:18
  That is a soundbite. Show some respect. Yes,
• 59:21
  it is. That's all I Really can say on that because
• 59:25
  I feel Disrespected by those individuals like
• 59:30
  I'm nobody here again. This decision does not
• 59:33
  affect me That's just like your opinion, man
• 59:37
  Yeah, well, you know, that's just like your opinion
• 59:43
  man That's all I really can say on that because
• 59:49
  I feel that's all I have to say about that. Alright,
• 59:53
  force gump, you know, disrespected by those individuals
• 59:57
  like I'm nobody here again. This decision does
• 1:00:00
  not affect the federal or state recognition of
• 1:00:03
  Juneteenth. Just the city's holiday schedule
• 1:00:05
  here in symbolic. OK, I I have more to say. I'm
• 1:00:10
  sorry I gotta break this down. Here we go. This
• 1:00:11
  is both holidays are stupid. And instead of saying
• 1:00:16
  we should celebrate both, let's celebrate neither.
• 1:00:20
  Let's spend no money, especially no taxpayer
• 1:00:23
  money on either of them. Let's not take the day
• 1:00:25
  off because what we just do is give federal bureaucrats
• 1:00:28
  an opportunity to not work while we still pay
• 1:00:30
  their salary. What a waste. Furthermore, Columbus
• 1:00:35
  didn't discover America. He discovered North
• 1:00:38
  America. He landed in Cuba for Spain and he was
• 1:00:44
  Italian. The whole celebrating the tradition
• 1:00:48
  of America doesn't even make sense now if we
• 1:00:50
  want to talk about North America the continent
• 1:00:52
  Alright, we we got some ground there, but an
• 1:00:55
  Italian Explorer on behalf of Spain discovered
• 1:00:59
  Cuba And then for Juneteenth Texas abolished
• 1:01:08
  slavery two years after Lincoln said they were
• 1:01:12
  supposed to and also not at the same time as
• 1:01:15
  the Emancipation Proclamation, which also, the
• 1:01:18
  more you know, happened three years into the
• 1:01:21
  Civil War. So neither holiday makes any fucking
• 1:01:25
  sense. There's even further historical context
• 1:01:30
  that I'm going to allow a black and brown person
• 1:01:35
  who for some reason doesn't feel disrespected.
• 1:01:38
  I'm going to allow him to explain it. There were
• 1:01:40
  enslaved blacks in Galveston, Texas that did
• 1:01:42
  not know they were officially free. Although
• 1:01:44
  other blacks told them that they were free, they
• 1:01:46
  didn't believe them. In 1865, they were officially
• 1:01:51
  told that they were free, and that's why they
• 1:01:53
  celebrate Juneteenth. However, they were not
• 1:01:56
  the only slaves. What they fail to mention, because
• 1:01:58
  they don't want this to be a part of history,
• 1:02:00
  the Choctaw Indian had not released their slaves.
• 1:02:03
  But they don't want you to know that the natives
• 1:02:05
  owned slaves, and they don't want you to know
• 1:02:07
  that that was the actual last remnant of slaves
• 1:02:09
  released. It's when the Choctaw released their
• 1:02:11
  slaves a year later, which was the final... This
• 1:02:13
  is because the Native Americans didn't have telegrams.
• 1:02:17
  year later, which were the final remnant of black
• 1:02:20
  slaves released. That's why it's so disingenuous
• 1:02:22
  for them to pick June 19th, 1865, when it probably
• 1:02:26
  would be March something 1866, but they cannot
• 1:02:31
  have in history that Indians were the last to
• 1:02:35
  release black people from slavery. Cause they
• 1:02:37
  can't blame it all on white people. That gets
• 1:02:38
  even better, Scott, because so this brings up
• 1:02:41
  another good point is like blacks owned blacks,
• 1:02:43
  blacks owned black slaves. Indians, Native Americans,
• 1:02:48
  Indians owned black slaves. Indians also owned
• 1:02:52
  Indian slaves. That's sort of a cultural thing
• 1:02:54
  that went on for, oh, I don't know, 10 ,000 years
• 1:02:56
  also. Ottomans, and oh, by the way, at this time
• 1:03:00
  in history, the Ottoman Empire was still very
• 1:03:02
  much in charge, large and in charge of a solid
• 1:03:04
  15, 20 % of the known world. Right up to World
• 1:03:08
  War I. And slaves. Throughout the entire Ottoman
• 1:03:12
  Empire and the color didn't matter at all just
• 1:03:15
  mattered if your region got conquered There were
• 1:03:17
  lots and lots of white slaves throughout the
• 1:03:20
  Ottoman Empire No, I think the only people who
• 1:03:22
  had slaves were the post fall City Council. Oh
• 1:03:24
  nailed it here is one more clip about once again
• 1:03:30
  the NAACP guy he's not speaking on behalf of
• 1:03:34
  blacks He's speaking on behalf of the left. Let's
• 1:03:36
  talk about what the Democrats are doing The reason
• 1:03:39
  that Democrats are actually making this a big
• 1:03:41
  deal is because they want to divide between black
• 1:03:45
  and white. This is an NAACP? No, it's someone
• 1:03:50
  of the same... quote race, who doesn't agree
• 1:03:53
  with the guy politically. It's not a race issue.
• 1:03:56
  It's a political issue. I thought you said this
• 1:03:57
  was a spokesperson for the NAACP. No, the guy
• 1:03:59
  that the North Idaho mainstream media highlighted
• 1:04:03
  on their coverage of the post fall city council.
• 1:04:05
  He was. And I'm just, I'm responding to him in
• 1:04:08
  not my voice because it's much more effective
• 1:04:09
  if you hear from somebody that's supposed to
• 1:04:12
  agree with him because the blacks are all one
• 1:04:14
  community, the black community, the black community,
• 1:04:16
  the black community. They want black people to
• 1:04:18
  believe July the 4th. is the white man's Independence
• 1:04:22
  Day and that June 19th is the black man's Independence
• 1:04:26
  Day. Now some black people are fooled into believing
• 1:04:30
  that this was done in good faith. They want to
• 1:04:33
  make sure they push it because they want a continual
• 1:04:36
  battle. Has there ever been a time in history
• 1:04:38
  where segregation was done in good faith? Like,
• 1:04:41
  think about that. Is there ever a time in history
• 1:04:43
  where it's like, no, no, you guys go over there
• 1:04:45
  and you guys get to go over there, but this is
• 1:04:48
  for everybody's own good. Yes. Of course. Just
• 1:04:50
  a few years ago with vaccine passports, they
• 1:04:52
  were just trying to control a disease, dude.
• 1:04:54
  Yes. You see, discrimination is wrong and terrible
• 1:04:56
  except for when we do it in 2020 on account of
• 1:04:59
  the air is dangerous. See how it works. Or when,
• 1:05:02
  or when black college kids want it and they want
• 1:05:04
  segregated dorms while failing to remember that
• 1:05:07
  their great grandparents marched in the streets.
• 1:05:10
  to desegregate society but again it's not blacks
• 1:05:14
  that wanted that it's black lefties who wanted
• 1:05:16
  it because blacks who don't agree with them politically
• 1:05:18
  would have or think it's ridiculous now that's
• 1:05:21
  obviously a different story because it's funny
• 1:05:23
  as the white college students who supported it
• 1:05:25
  too well that's what i'm saying should be in
• 1:05:27
  their own dorms it's not a color issue it's a
• 1:05:29
  political issue but but that is still obviously
• 1:05:31
  in its own category because it's voluntary Go
• 1:05:34
  right ahead. What do I care? Well, I do. I mean,
• 1:05:36
  that is a good point. And I do agree with it,
• 1:05:38
  because obviously, as a libertarian, the rights
• 1:05:41
  of association are paramount. Exactly. Who you
• 1:05:43
  want to who you want to self and people do self
• 1:05:46
  sort. Yeah. However, one cannot ignore the irony,
• 1:05:50
  whether it's voluntary association or not or
• 1:05:54
  enforced by the state. Either way, the fact that
• 1:05:57
  it took less than three generations. for, you
• 1:06:00
  know, one generation to go, let's all get along,
• 1:06:03
  be together. Segregation is bad for. And then
• 1:06:06
  their grandkids and great grandkids going, I
• 1:06:08
  want my own dorm and I don't want to be near
• 1:06:10
  whitey and other white people going, yeah, I
• 1:06:13
  agree. Yeah, that's right. Like imagine being
• 1:06:16
  imagine being a grandparent and like watching
• 1:06:18
  your kids or grandkids behave that way. Could
• 1:06:21
  you imagine? What was the point? What was the
• 1:06:23
  point of it all? One more version of the mainstream
• 1:06:27
  coverage on the post falls decision because this
• 1:06:30
  one from I forget where the hell it was, but
• 1:06:32
  who cares. Another network affiliate, they covered
• 1:06:35
  a group that's against it. You know, they're
• 1:06:39
  all like MSNBC, NBC, ABC. What we need to do
• 1:06:42
  is that really what we should just call them
• 1:06:44
  all NPC. Like NBC NPC is okay. Yes. This is the
• 1:06:48
  this is the North Idaho affiliate of the NPC
• 1:06:51
  network So as we continue following this story
• 1:06:53
  an organization in northern northern northern
• 1:06:55
  Idaho is worried about Don't know anything about
• 1:06:59
  this region. I mean then could far be it for
• 1:07:00
  me, you know, I've only been here six years,
• 1:07:02
  but Come on, man. This is near and dear to my
• 1:07:05
  heart. You know, it's going to give me, cause
• 1:07:07
  I am an Idaho local. It is North Idaho and South
• 1:07:10
  Idaho because they might as well be two different
• 1:07:11
  States. They are two different States. They should
• 1:07:13
  be two different States, North Dakota and South
• 1:07:15
  Dakota got, got to, you know, divorce. Why the
• 1:07:18
  hell can't we like, if I had, if I woke up tomorrow
• 1:07:22
  and got to pick five, of my favorite things I
• 1:07:24
  wanted to happen. Secession would be number one
• 1:07:27
  on my list. Well, one of them. National divorce.
• 1:07:29
  Top five. National divorce and regional divorce.

  National divorce and regional divorce. I want
• 1:07:33
  nothing to do with Boise. Go away. I grew up
• 1:07:35
  in South California, but I moved here from North
• 1:07:37
  California. So as we continue following this
• 1:07:40
  story, an organization in northern northern northern
• 1:07:42
  Idaho. I don't even want anything to do with
• 1:07:43
  Coeur d 'Alene or Sandpoint. God. Will impact
• 1:07:46
  their group's mission. It's an ugly thing to
• 1:07:49
  do, I think. North Idaho and Lauren McCroskey
• 1:07:51
  says she was shocked when she heard the news
• 1:07:53
  of post fall city council members voting. She
• 1:07:55
  clutched her pearls took a sharp deep intake
• 1:07:58
  of breath and said this thing I heard about five
• 1:08:01
  seconds ago is paramount to the existence of
• 1:08:03
  all the races. I'm outraged. North Idaho and
• 1:08:06
  Lauren McCroskey says she was shocked when she
• 1:08:08
  heard the news of post fall City Council members
• 1:08:10
  voting to remove Juneteenth as a city holiday
• 1:08:12
  and reinstate Columbus Day on Tuesday night.
• 1:08:15
  And now I'm going to celebrate Juneteenth even
• 1:08:17
  harder. That's exactly you. You jest. But that
• 1:08:20
  quote was basically verbatim. I totally bet.
• 1:08:23
  OK, as long as she releases her slaves, I'll
• 1:08:26
  allow it. I just want to point out, just in case
• 1:08:28
  we didn't mention it, and just in case you don't
• 1:08:30
  know, and because I clarified too, because I
• 1:08:33
  wasn't exactly sure, this was made a federal
• 1:08:35
  holiday in 2021. And it was politically done
• 1:08:38
  in the wake of the George Floyd propaganda. And
• 1:08:41
  it has been something that Texans have acknowledged
• 1:08:45
  for a long time. It's like a sort of regional
• 1:08:47
  holiday, but it's never been federal. And the
• 1:08:50
  last, you know when the last federal holidays
• 1:08:53
  don't become, they don't make new federal holidays
• 1:08:55
  very often. You know when the last one was? The
• 1:08:57
  last one. Ooh, I think that'd be Thanksgiving.
• 1:09:01
  Oh, no, it's much more recent than that. Oh,
• 1:09:02
  is it? Yeah, it's it was Martin Luther King Day.
• 1:09:04
  And that was in the night. It was in the early
• 1:09:06
  80s that they made that if that makes sense.
• 1:09:08
  OK. And then probably Thanksgiving, I think.
• 1:09:10
  So but it's been 40 years. I mean, it's been
• 1:09:12
  a long time. It very, very rarely happens. So
• 1:09:14
  this was I thought that was mentioning this Thanksgiving.
• 1:09:17
  Tell me Thanksgiving. Because I was right after
• 1:09:20
  World War One on Tuesday night. She, alongside
• 1:09:24
  several others, started the anti -hate group,
• 1:09:26
  Idaho for All. She, alongside several others,
• 1:09:45
  started the anti -hate group, Idaho For All,
• 1:09:47
  a little over two years ago. Idaho for all the
• 1:09:49
  commies. She says it's wonderful vigils and events
• 1:09:51
  on national issues and holidays the group feels
• 1:09:53
  don't get the right amount of attention across
• 1:09:55
  northern Idaho. The best way to solve some of
• 1:09:59
  these problems is to try to create community
• 1:10:01
  around common issues. That includes a Juneteenth
• 1:10:09
  pop -up concert in Freedom Walk that's been held
• 1:10:11
  in Coeur d 'Alene. I can feel the smug from here.
• 1:10:15
  Over the past couple of years. But now she says
• 1:10:17
  Post Falls has distinguished itself, inspiring
• 1:10:19
  her to grow their group's events moving forward.
• 1:10:22
  I think it's going to invigorate us to have an
• 1:10:26
  even bigger Juneteenth this year. She says this
• 1:10:29
  decision comes as members of Idaho for All are
• 1:10:31
  beginning to plan for their next event commemorating
• 1:10:33
  Juneteenth. She adds, it's an important day to
• 1:10:35
  acknowledge the news of the end of slavery reaching
• 1:10:37
  Texas more than two years after the Emancipation
• 1:10:40
  Proclamation. And she hopes that decision out
• 1:10:42
  of Post Falls doesn't hinder folks turning out
• 1:10:44
  for their event come June. Now, of course, that's
• 1:10:46
  folks with an X, just in case you were wondering.
• 1:10:49
  Yeah. You know, I will only celebrate the end
• 1:10:52
  of slavery the moment we don't have to pay taxes
• 1:10:54
  anymore. Because what they did during the Civil
• 1:10:57
  War, they ended one form of slavery and just
• 1:11:01
  expanded slavery to all of us. Boy, is that true?
• 1:11:04
  That's literally what they did. Just a softer
• 1:11:06
  form of slavery. No, no, no. It's just one percent.
• 1:11:08
  And it's just on the wealthy. OK, let's we're
• 1:11:16
  going to kind of getting toward the end here.
• 1:11:18
  Let's do a couple more. I have. This short one
• 1:11:22
  another post falls decision post fall city officials
• 1:11:26
  are looking to add a patriotic monument to celebrate
• 1:11:28
  America's 250th birthday the City Council voted
• 1:11:32
  last week to participate in the America 250 Idaho
• 1:11:36
  celebration fund grant program a $2 ,500 grant
• 1:11:40
  and outside donations would fund the monument
• 1:11:42
  But the city says they will not move forward
• 1:11:45
  with the project if they do not receive the grant
• 1:11:47
  there you go we need this money I'm against it.
• 1:11:53
  Whatever they're for. I don't care if it's only,
• 1:11:55
  you know, quote unquote, only $2 ,500 of a grant.
• 1:11:58
  A grant is still public money. They tax us. It
• 1:12:01
  goes into the state coffers. Then the state issues
• 1:12:04
  a grant back to counties or in this case, the
• 1:12:08
  city to to celebrate America. Actually thinking
• 1:12:11
  about this, Scott, what what a wonderfully ironic
• 1:12:14
  way to celebrate the founding of this country
• 1:12:17
  by recklessly spending taxpayer money. To to
• 1:12:23
  acknowledge it a rebellion built on not paying
• 1:12:27
  taxes is going to be funded with our taxes See
• 1:12:31
  in here. I thought it was just a monument to
• 1:12:33
  you suck. I thought it was just a monument to
• 1:12:35
  commemorate slavery I mean, you know to honor
• 1:12:37
  it given that it's the post fall City Council
• 1:12:39
  that's erecting it America gosh, I want to love
• 1:12:42
  you so bad, but I can't because you suck Government
• 1:12:46
  sucks. The idea of America is still awesome,
• 1:12:49
  but it's dead It's so dead. Sadly. We celebrate
• 1:12:53
  our own country by taxing ourselves. Just think
• 1:12:57
  about that. And it's a city council in North
• 1:12:59
  Idaho that's actually... Okay, I can't. Yeah.
• 1:13:02
  You know, as long as we're on the whole... I
• 1:13:04
  know, it's supposed to be a friendly puff piece,
• 1:13:05
  isn't it? And I just went and ruined it. Okay.
• 1:13:08
  Well, here, we'll go unfriendly and we'll stay
• 1:13:10
  on the... Just like that meme, anything, literally
• 1:13:12
  anything, and nobody, literally nobody, except
• 1:13:15
  Paul. I blame the government. Idaho's budget
• 1:13:18
  cuts are reaching career technical education
• 1:13:20
  classrooms. Industry leaders now warn it could
• 1:13:22
  really hurt Idaho's workforce. Leaders say fewer
• 1:13:25
  classroom supplies and mentorship opportunities
• 1:13:27
  are creating a less prepared workforce in Idaho.
• 1:13:31
  From welding to culinary arts, CTE programs are
• 1:13:35
  in classrooms all across Idaho. Sitting there
• 1:13:38
  typing in a computer. can't really take my mind
• 1:13:41
  anywhere. Shane Maguire spent several years in
• 1:13:44
  CTE classes like engineering and robotics through
• 1:13:47
  high school and college at Boise State projects
• 1:13:49
  that I'm going to enjoy and doing projects that
• 1:13:52
  are going to push me towards what I want to do.
• 1:13:54
  The Idaho Division of Career Technical Education
• 1:13:56
  helped trains industry workers to become teachers
• 1:13:59
  in secondary and post secondary programs and
• 1:14:02
  connect students to the workforce. Among other
• 1:14:04
  things, they prepare our food. They grow our
• 1:14:07
  so this is an argument we hear over and over
• 1:14:10
  and over again We already know what they're driving
• 1:14:11
  at is without without the government doing this
• 1:14:14
  and funding this how it's the mainstream media
• 1:14:16
  That's every story possibly ever train a workforce
• 1:14:19
  How can how will companies ever be able to handle
• 1:14:23
  employing people if the government doesn't do
• 1:14:26
  everything for them? Well, and they're only getting
• 1:14:27
  99 % of their budget So because of these 1 %
• 1:14:30
  cuts Idaho is not gonna have a workforce. That's
• 1:14:32
  right. I think this is an correct me if I'm wrong,
• 1:14:35
  I'm jumping the gun here, but I assume this is
• 1:14:36
  about the Idaho launch program that's going to
• 1:14:39
  have to get some cuts because it's huge, huge
• 1:14:41
  budget line item. And it's it's crony capitalism
• 1:14:46
  at its finest, the Idaho launch program. And
• 1:14:48
  they have to cut pieces of it because they got
• 1:14:49
  to cut something somewhere. And so this one's
• 1:14:51
  on the block. I can't remember, by the way, for
• 1:14:53
  the record, the Idaho state budget has grown
• 1:14:56
  66 percent in seven years. That's insane. That
• 1:15:02
  is absurd. There is no justification for that
• 1:15:06
  at all. How did we ever build homes before this?
• 1:15:21
  We didn't. We just constructed ramshackle log
• 1:15:24
  cabins on our farmsteads in the middle of nowhere.
• 1:15:28
  Ironically, we actually had an easier time building
• 1:15:29
  homes. They were less expensive. So were the
• 1:15:31
  materials and so was the labor. construction
• 1:15:33
  professionals. State administrator Peter Reese
• 1:15:36
  says 69 % of Idaho high schoolers take at least
• 1:15:39
  one CTE course before they graduate, but that
• 1:15:42
  current and future students, adults and high
• 1:15:44
  schoolers may not get the same experience. McGuire
• 1:15:47
  did when we make these cuts, we end up eliminating
• 1:15:52
  opportunities for young people throughout the
• 1:15:54
  state. Adults throughout the state to fine cut
• 1:15:57
  something else. Do you want to guess what his
• 1:15:59
  Peter Reese's salary is? This fellow I would
• 1:16:03
  wager in the 150 to 175 range, 100 ,000. You're
• 1:16:06
  right in there. He makes over 160 and that does
• 1:16:09
  not include benefits or retirement. Which then
• 1:16:11
  means he's roughly close to 200 grand because
• 1:16:14
  also platinum benefits for guys like this who
• 1:16:16
  worked this job for 20, 30 years and then retire
• 1:16:18
  with absolutely platinum pennies and a pension
• 1:16:20
  that never quits. Reese says his agency is freezing
• 1:16:23
  positions that mentor teachers and reducing its
• 1:16:26
  spending on supplies and equipment for classrooms.
• 1:16:29
  Starting this, we're going to take away the kids
• 1:16:30
  paint brushes. What do you think about that?
• 1:16:32
  Oh wait, excuse me. Let me just go hammer my
• 1:16:34
  my it's Friday so I just got my paycheck so I'll
• 1:16:36
  be right back. I just need to run to the bank.
• 1:16:38
  Applies and equipment for classrooms starting
• 1:16:40
  this fiscal year. It comes after the state's
• 1:16:43
  Joint Finance Appropriation Committee, or JFAC,
• 1:16:46
  approved ongoing 5 % budget cuts for most state
• 1:16:49
  agencies earlier this month. This dude makes
• 1:16:52
  over 13 grand a month. For most state agencies
• 1:16:55
  earlier this month. Yeah, certainly concern.
• 1:16:57
  For the division of CTE, that's upwards of...
• 1:17:01
  I need... that's upwards of $4 million in cuts.
• 1:17:07
  It's a very big number. Reese says without so
• 1:17:09
  is your salary. Yeah, looks a lot different for
• 1:17:12
  the culinary students. It is. It's food. If they
• 1:17:15
  can't afford to purchase those things that they're
• 1:17:17
  working off of, you want to talk about not being
• 1:17:18
  able to afford food. Why don't you talk to any
• 1:17:21
  working family in Idaho, dude? Purchase those
• 1:17:23
  things that they're working off of worksheets
• 1:17:25
  and and imagined. planning for those medical
• 1:17:29
  technicians and others, then you're dealing with
• 1:17:32
  needles and components related to, you know,
• 1:17:34
  simple things like learning how to draw blood.
• 1:17:37
  Reese warns the ripple effects of the cuts could
• 1:17:39
  lead to lower teacher retention, a less prepared
• 1:17:41
  workforce and a loss of homegrown talent. If
• 1:17:44
  we can't prepare Idahoans for Idaho jobs, then
• 1:17:47
  we're going to have to import people from out
• 1:17:49
  of state. And even if money comes back in a few
• 1:17:52
  years, Reese says the damage won't be quick to
• 1:17:54
  undo. you know what they need is to form another
• 1:17:57
  committee. They need, they probably should hire
• 1:18:00
  like a vice president or two or three, a couple
• 1:18:04
  of vice principals, like they need more administration
• 1:18:06
  because - Yeah, so they can figure out how to
• 1:18:08
  keep the culinary students from having to like
• 1:18:11
  wave frying pans around that don't have anything
• 1:18:12
  in them. Just continue the model that public
• 1:18:15
  education has been pursuing for the last 50 years,
• 1:18:17
  which is a 200 % increase in administrative costs
• 1:18:21
  and staff. Meanwhile, test scores remain flat
• 1:18:26
  or lower. And oh, by the way, attendance remains
• 1:18:29
  flat or lower. Now, I'm pro trade schools. I
• 1:18:32
  am pro like anybody who has any, you know, intelligence
• 1:18:36
  should be pro trade schools and things like that.
• 1:18:40
  But something's got to give if we're doing it
• 1:18:44
  via government programs. So if you don't want
• 1:18:46
  to cut that, which if we guess we had to pick
• 1:18:48
  and I got to choose or if we all got to choose
• 1:18:50
  and, you know, they put 20 things on the ballot,
• 1:18:52
  basically saying, OK, Something's got to give
• 1:18:55
  or you know, pick five and we'll cut the five
• 1:18:58
  you pick I wouldn't pick the K tech stuff that
• 1:19:00
  actually has some value to it There's a lot of
• 1:19:02
  crony capitalism going on with the launch program
• 1:19:04
  and there's a lot of nonsense and bullshit and
• 1:19:06
  people who have a lot of sway Getting what they
• 1:19:09
  want out of it and I disagree with that But fine
• 1:19:12
  cut something else then right something's got
• 1:19:14
  to give but of course, it's not their salary
• 1:19:16
  ever Well, it's groundhog day Again, I know it's
• 1:19:21
  the same stuff all the time, but it's always
• 1:19:22
  the same story It's these people that are making
• 1:19:25
  200 times the 200 % more than the average salary
• 1:19:29
  in the state Lecturing us about how they're gonna
• 1:19:32
  take away the kids paintbrushes if we cut their
• 1:19:34
  budget by 1 % It's very tiresome. It really is
• 1:19:38
  a total lack of creativity. But again, it's the
• 1:19:41
  old adage like if government taught ever if we
• 1:19:44
  let the government teach our kids how to walk
• 1:19:45
  it would be a generation or less then we turn
• 1:19:47
  around be like but without my government how
• 1:19:49
  will kids learn how to walk and that's what you
• 1:19:51
  see every time all over and over and over again
• 1:19:54
  pick a topic it's the same thing these people
• 1:19:56
  who make six figures turn around and lecture
• 1:19:58
  us about how it can't be done if the government's
• 1:20:02
  not doing it which is nonsense it is utter and
• 1:20:05
  complete nonsense if there's a need the need
• 1:20:07
  will be filled the market finds a way always
• 1:20:10
  and usually way faster way less expensive, not
• 1:20:13
  perfect, but certainly better than the state
• 1:20:17
  can ever hope to achieve. You know, the thing
• 1:20:20
  about this deal that really scares me the most
• 1:20:22
  is our children. I'm scared of the children,
• 1:20:25
  too. They won't. They just they won't have. I
• 1:20:28
  just imagine the kids in the culinary school,
• 1:20:30
  you know, they're learning how to like, let's
• 1:20:31
  say, like use a wok and make a stir fry. And
• 1:20:34
  they're they're swishing the wok around to like
• 1:20:37
  flip the. But there's nothing in the. There's
• 1:20:39
  nothing in the lock. Damn it. If only I had some
• 1:20:41
  food to put in this thing. Well, we had to take
• 1:20:42
  away your food. Damn you. One percent cuts. By
• 1:20:46
  the way, I meant to tell you earlier is that
• 1:20:48
  I apologize for the lack of to you, Scott, and
• 1:20:52
  to our listeners for the lack of Scott's shots
• 1:20:54
  over the last three episodes. Oh, yeah. This
• 1:20:56
  will be a third episode without a Scott shots.
• 1:20:58
  And I promise I'm going to make it up to you
• 1:21:00
  next week. I will be ready. I actually pulled
• 1:21:02
  a topic for today and then realized because I
• 1:21:04
  was traveling light. I came down from my house
• 1:21:07
  today and traveling super light because I'm on
• 1:21:09
  crutches and everything hurts and I can't carry
• 1:21:11
  stuff. I went, well, I won't have my laptop or
• 1:21:14
  anything I need to pull up the story and do the
• 1:21:16
  couple of things I wanted to do. So next week,
• 1:21:19
  next week. But I haven't forgotten. Hear your
• 1:21:22
  excuses. I have pretty good ones. Yeah, they're
• 1:21:26
  more like reasons in your case. I'll give you
• 1:21:27
  that, you know. given the circumstances, lucky
• 1:21:31
  number 13 over here. I am happy to be through
• 1:21:35
  that first week of surgery, man. That first week
• 1:21:37
  of post -op was, it was all for the record books
• 1:21:41
  of miserable. Well, I, I hope that I, for the
• 1:21:45
  next, I mean, I'm like, I'm like a hundred percent
• 1:21:47
  I'm, I'm, I'm five and O on Scott shots. I've
• 1:21:50
  yet to miss one. So I'm looking forward to continuing
• 1:21:52
  to bring them. I'm curious to know what the first
• 1:21:54
  one I'm going to actually miss is. Well, All
• 1:21:57
