- 0:00Speaker 1: Mark the moans on wor Well, Monday, it's not bad today.
- 0:10Speaker 1: The sun will come out a little later. It's gonna
- 0:12Speaker 1: be the most gorgeous day tomorrow, and then rain for
- 0:14Speaker 1: a couple of days. So it's college graduation time. You
- 0:17Speaker 1: got a lot of colleges doing all this graduation stuff. Now,
- 0:21Speaker 1: one problem is, you know when they do the graduation.
- 0:24Speaker 1: Problem Number one is you got the commencement speech. And
- 0:27Speaker 1: these are colleges, so they tend to get these left
- 0:30Speaker 1: wing crazies. You know, the commencement speech used to be motivational, inspirational,
- 0:38Speaker 1: wonderful stuff. Remember the great Admiral William mccraven, the guy
- 0:42Speaker 1: that led the bin laden rain. He gave what's considered
- 0:46Speaker 1: the greatest commencement speech ever in history. Admiral William mccraven.
- 0:51Speaker 1: Look it up. It's the greatest commencement speech ever, the
- 0:54Speaker 1: famous make your Bed story and others, and he tells
- 0:58Speaker 1: you how to get through life like a Navy seal.
- 1:00Speaker 1: It's an amazing speech. Donald Trump gave one of the
- 1:02Speaker 1: best commencement speeches ever. Real motivational speeches. A lot of
- 1:06Speaker 1: them out there, but nowadays you get the worst, most
- 1:10Speaker 1: disgusting crap in the world at commencement speeches University of Michigan,
- 1:17Speaker 1: and I hate to even tell you this, but they
- 1:19Speaker 1: just totally disgraced themselves. I mean, I'm from Michigan. I
- 1:22Speaker 1: used to go to University of Michigan like every Saturday
- 1:25Speaker 1: to watch the football games. And it's a great It
- 1:28Speaker 1: was a great university. I don't know what the hell
- 1:30Speaker 1: it is now, but they had this speaker that has
- 1:34Speaker 1: caused such an uproar Derreck Peterson. He's a professor of
- 1:39Speaker 1: East African history, an outgoing chair of the faculty senate,
- 1:45Speaker 1: whatever the hell that is. So he gets up and
- 1:48Speaker 1: he makes this anti Israel, pro Palestinian speech. I mean
- 1:53Speaker 1: it was just and we said, disgusting speech, talked about
- 1:57Speaker 1: the injustice and inhumanity of is So apparently some students
- 2:02Speaker 1: were cheering, some were furious, parents were furious. It is
- 2:06Speaker 1: the most video of this pro Palestinian, anti Israel, anti
- 2:12Speaker 1: Semitic nonsense this guy was spewing. Video of it started
- 2:16Speaker 1: to go viral online. University of Michigan. This guy that
- 2:21Speaker 1: had been condemned by Jewish groups and apparently it's there
- 2:26Speaker 1: have been campus protests. University of Michigan against Israel, created
- 2:30Speaker 1: a very hostile environment against some Jewish students. I mean,
- 2:33Speaker 1: this is just absolutely disgusting. Now, in a lot of times,
- 2:36Speaker 1: these universities stand by this disgusting stuff, like Columbia Harvard.
- 2:41Speaker 1: But I'll say one good thing. University of Michigan immediately
- 2:45Speaker 1: came out. President university issued a public apology said that
- 2:51Speaker 1: comments were inappropriate, do not represent our institutional position. We
- 2:56Speaker 1: regret the pain this has caused on a day to
- 3:00Speaker 1: voted to celebration and accomplishment. And they do say that
- 3:05Speaker 1: he deviated from the remarks he had shared before the ceremony.
- 3:09Speaker 1: Usually they put your speech up on a teleprompter, which
- 3:12Speaker 1: means somebody sees it ahead of time. Very swift apology,
- 3:16Speaker 1: but it did not stop a lot of officials, especially
- 3:19Speaker 1: Republican ones around the country. Can't count on Democrats to
- 3:23Speaker 1: defend against anti Semitism anymore, but to Republican officials, even
- 3:27Speaker 1: Rick Scott of Florida, others calling for the school to
- 3:30Speaker 1: be stripped of federal funding, it's pretty disgusting that that
- 3:35Speaker 1: would happen. A lot of parents outrage Jewish parents obviously,
- 3:39Speaker 1: but all parents who you pay a fortune to go
- 3:44Speaker 1: to these schools to pay six ninety one hundred thousand
- 3:48Speaker 1: a year for tuition and then you have to sit
- 3:50Speaker 1: there and listen to this crap. I'll give him credit
- 3:53Speaker 1: for apologizing, but this guy should be fired, he should
- 3:56Speaker 1: be thrown the hell off the faculty and all these
- 3:59Speaker 1: colleges just you know, people wonder how do we get
- 4:01Speaker 1: a mom, donnie, how do we end up with socialists
- 4:04Speaker 1: getting How does the AOC, How does mom, donnie, how
- 4:06Speaker 1: do these people get elected? It's from decades of total
- 4:10Speaker 1: indoctrination on college campuses years ago, years ago. This was
- 4:15Speaker 1: probably planned, calculated by the shadowy Soros types all over
- 4:20Speaker 1: the world that they and they just loaded up the
- 4:23Speaker 1: colleges with left wing, crazy, left wing, woke socialist professors
- 4:29Speaker 1: and turned these places into indoctrination centers over the years.
- 4:33Speaker 1: And the other way it happened was foreign money started
- 4:36Speaker 1: to pour in, a lot of foreign money poured in
- 4:40Speaker 1: to these colleges. And with all that, I mean serious
- 4:44Speaker 1: money flowing into these colleges, foreign money that allowed them
- 4:47Speaker 1: to take seats on the board of trustees and all
- 4:49Speaker 1: that stuff. And it could have been a long slow
- 4:53Speaker 1: plot by China, by again a bunch of sorrows types.
- 4:57Speaker 1: But a plot has been going on for decades, decades,
- 5:00Speaker 1: and it caused many new generations of Mamdani voters to
- 5:05Speaker 1: be turned out. How do you fix it? Well, it
- 5:07Speaker 1: could take years, maybe decades, to get those colleges back
- 5:11Speaker 1: to normal. The other controversy, you've been to a graduation.
- 5:14Speaker 1: You know, you go to a graduation. They got the speeches,
- 5:17Speaker 1: Then they do the actual awarding of the diplomas, and
- 5:20Speaker 1: there could be three hundred students or four hundred students, whatever,
- 5:23Speaker 1: five hundred students, and they call up each person by name.
- 5:27Speaker 1: The person has to walk across the stage. Then the
- 5:30Speaker 1: president of college takes the diploma and hands it to them,
- 5:33Speaker 1: and they stop for a couple seconds while the photographer
- 5:36Speaker 1: takes the picture. Now do that five hundred times. You're
- 5:39Speaker 1: talking about a couple hours of this stuff. It's a
- 5:41Speaker 1: long process. So some colleges, even one or two here
- 5:45Speaker 1: in New York, decided to get rid of that process.
- 5:49Speaker 1: Why make people sit there and watch, one by one
- 5:53Speaker 1: by one take the picture, hundreds of them. It's just
- 5:57Speaker 1: too much to sit as. They decided not to do
- 5:59Speaker 1: that anymore. Well, people went crazy because that picture is
- 6:05Speaker 1: what they call the money shot. That picture, that's the
- 6:08Speaker 1: picture you frame. That's the picture you want. The president
- 6:10Speaker 1: of Handyman, my diploma, me accepting my diploma. That's the picture.
- 6:15Speaker 1: So people went crazy. Parents went crazy, and they're right.
- 6:19Speaker 1: They said, Hey, we're paying eighty thousand, ninety thousand a year.
- 6:23Speaker 1: We want that picture. I don't care if it takes
- 6:25Speaker 1: ten hours. We're paying eighty ninety thousand a year. We
- 6:27Speaker 1: want the picture. So just about every college that did
- 6:30Speaker 1: that caved in and went back to taking the graduation pictures.
- 6:36Speaker 1: So that's good news. Hey, the Knicks go on to
- 6:39Speaker 1: the advance to the next round of the finals. Try
- 6:43Speaker 1: to sound like I know what I'm talking about. I
- 6:44Speaker 1: don't really watch basketball. I don't really follow basketball. But
- 6:48Speaker 1: as you know, it was Friday night. I'm out in
- 6:50Speaker 1: a million places and on every TV screen, in every club, bar, restaurant,
- 6:55Speaker 1: there's the Knicks there, and people going crazy. This is
- 6:58Speaker 1: the first time in what many, many, many, many many years.
- 7:01Speaker 1: We're not used to the Knicks winning. We don't know
- 7:03Speaker 1: how to handle it. It's a strange feeling. But congratulations
- 7:07Speaker 1: to the Knicks, and they really just kind of swept
- 7:10Speaker 1: the series. This is a pretty powerful team. This's momentum
- 7:13Speaker 1: behind them. It's unbelievable. Hey, remember Joe Biden wrote a
- 7:18Speaker 1: book and he sat with a ghostwriter who wrote the
- 7:24Speaker 1: book for him. It was Joe Biden's autobiography, and apparently
- 7:29Speaker 1: spent many hours talking to the ghostwriter. Well, remember also
- 7:35Speaker 1: he had to sit and be interviewed by prosecutors Department
- 7:38Speaker 1: of Justice for whatever he was going to be on
- 7:41Speaker 1: trial for. There's so many scandals with him. I can't
- 7:44Speaker 1: remember which one it was. And remember the special prosecutor
- 7:47Speaker 1: special counsel concluded that he was not really mentally fit
- 7:54Speaker 1: to stand trial. They said, he's an elderly man with
- 7:57Speaker 1: memory problems and he wouldn't be able to even take
- 8:00Speaker 1: the witness stand. They basically said, even though he's president,
- 8:03Speaker 1: he's unfit to stand trial. So this was Merrik Garland
- 8:07Speaker 1: and company. Special prosecutor declined to charge him, But everybody
- 8:11Speaker 1: always wanted to hear the recordings because when they interviewed him,
- 8:15Speaker 1: the Special Council, they recorded it. They released a transcript.
- 8:19Speaker 1: They said, we can't release the recording because of executive privilege,
- 8:22Speaker 1: but here's the transcript. Well, the transcript wasn't bad but
- 8:25Speaker 1: they assume that the transcript was cleaned up. For when
- 8:30Speaker 1: Biden stumbled and fumbled and couldn't finish the sentence and
- 8:33Speaker 1: when he just paused and couldn't think, they assumed the
- 8:37Speaker 1: transcript was cleaned up, and it probably was. So. Now,
- 8:42Speaker 1: the other thing that when he did this autobiography and
- 8:45Speaker 1: he sat with the ghostwriter for many hours, apparently there's
- 8:48Speaker 1: a transcript of that of him being interviewed by the
- 8:52Speaker 1: ghostwriter for many, many, many hours, and apparently it hasn't
- 8:56Speaker 1: been cleaned up, so you can hear the real Biden
- 8:59Speaker 1: having mental problems, can't think, can't finish the sentence. Apparently
- 9:03Speaker 1: it's pretty embarrassing. It's in the hands of the Justice
- 9:06Speaker 1: Department and they want to release it. This is the
- 9:09Speaker 1: Trump Justice Department. So the Biden people are going to court.
- 9:12Speaker 1: They're going to do everything they can to block this
- 9:15Speaker 1: from happening. Biden attorneys are going crazy now, they're going
- 9:18Speaker 1: to try to block the release of this transcript. Could
- 9:21Speaker 1: be pretty embarrassing. And even if it is, it's it's
- 9:25Speaker 1: in the rear view mirror now. But apparently it's seventy
- 9:28Speaker 1: hours and apparently there's audio. There's actual audio where you
- 9:33Speaker 1: can hear Biden, not be able to think, not be
- 9:35Speaker 1: able to talk, not know where he is. So if
- 9:39Speaker 1: this is released, this could be pretty amazing. Listen, I
- 9:44Speaker 1: think everybody agrees now, even the fake news Jake Tapper,
- 9:47Speaker 1: Joe Scarborough now admit they were lying about He's fine,
- 9:50Speaker 1: He's in good shape. You remember this, that famous Laura
- 9:55Speaker 1: Trump interview with Jake Tapper where she said something about
- 9:59Speaker 1: his mental condition, he can't think. He couldn't finish the sentence,
- 10:02Speaker 1: and Jake Tapper starts screaming at her. You're how dare
- 10:04Speaker 1: you make fun of his stutter? You know he has
- 10:06Speaker 1: a stutter. You can making fun of his stutter. He
- 10:08Speaker 1: never had any stutter. The guy's been speaking in public
- 10:11Speaker 1: for about sixty five years. He's never stuttered once. Nobody's
- 10:15Speaker 1: ever heard him stutter. He apparently made it up. And
- 10:19Speaker 1: also he wrote a book a massive years ago when
- 10:24Speaker 1: he had his brain. He actually wrote a book If
- 10:25Speaker 1: His Life. Nothing in there about a stutter. Ever, he
- 10:29Speaker 1: never talked about it. Somewhere later years he made up
- 10:33Speaker 1: this stutter story to cover up when he couldn't talk,
- 10:36Speaker 1: when he couldn't finish the sentence. So just keep an
- 10:40Speaker 1: eye on this audio. If this comes out, this will
- 10:42Speaker 1: be amazing. So the ship, the virus, how bad is it,
- 10:47Speaker 1: How scary is it? Well, I don't know. You talk
- 10:50Speaker 1: to every expert. There are passengers of their Americans on
- 10:55Speaker 1: that ship. They've come back to this country. They're going
- 10:58Speaker 1: to be taken to a military base. That's also we
- 11:01Speaker 1: have a military base that's a quarantine center where we
- 11:04Speaker 1: can quarantine people. So this hunt of virus, the patients
- 11:09Speaker 1: that were on that ship are going to this special
- 11:12Speaker 1: quarantine center. The individuals again are being monitored by our
- 11:15Speaker 1: local health department and partnership with our team. They are
- 11:18Speaker 1: showing no symptoms at this time. That suggests that they
- 11:21Speaker 1: might be infected with the virus. Okay, And every expert
- 11:25Speaker 1: is saying it's not the type of virus that's easily transmitted.
- 11:28Speaker 1: It won't come to this country. They say, well it has.
- 11:31Speaker 1: There have been cases in this country, a couple of hundred.
- 11:33Speaker 1: But it's not airborne. It's not easily transmitted. It would
- 11:38Speaker 1: take such close it's more like age. It would take
- 11:40Speaker 1: such close contact or an exchange of fluids that that's
- 11:44Speaker 1: the only Now, but let's bear in mind these guys
- 11:48Speaker 1: got ohthough, hopefully these are better experts. Remember last time,
- 11:52Speaker 1: the experts with the coronavirus got it all wrong too.
- 11:55Speaker 1: People forget Anthony Fauci was on the air in a
- 11:59Speaker 1: million places in the beginning saying, don't worry. The virus
- 12:03Speaker 1: isn't coming here. He said it on radio shows, on
- 12:06Speaker 1: TV shows. The audio exists, the video exists, you can
- 12:09Speaker 1: watch it. There's a famous Greg Kelly clip where a
- 12:12Speaker 1: news Max where he said, is there any chance the
- 12:15Speaker 1: virus will come to America? He said, no, no, no,
- 12:18Speaker 1: we have nothing to worry about it. So they've gotten
- 12:20Speaker 1: it wrong before, and nobody got it more wrong than Fauci. Now,
- 12:24Speaker 1: it could be that he deliberately got it wrong, because
- 12:26Speaker 1: we later learned he financed the lab that created the virus.
- 12:30Speaker 1: So maybe maybe he was just wanted to cover his
- 12:33Speaker 1: tracks and knowing that it would come out that it
- 12:36Speaker 1: was his virus. So hey, we're speaking of those college speeches.
- 12:41Speaker 1: I forgot to mention Nancy Pelosi also getting some crap.
- 12:44Speaker 1: She was speaking at California College and she got really
- 12:50Speaker 1: anti Trump. She said, urge the students get out there,
- 12:53Speaker 1: save our democracy from Trump. Listen, if you're a Democrat.
- 12:58Speaker 1: You can say that, but you don't say it a college.
- 13:00Speaker 1: It's not appropriate. In a college, it's not the place
- 13:03Speaker 1: for it. Hey, yesterday was Mother's Day. Got to be
- 13:09Speaker 1: the worst imaginable thing for Nancy Guthrie to go through
- 13:12Speaker 1: Mother's Day after what happened. So this sheriff, the local
- 13:17Speaker 1: sheriff there, who was just a nightmare, just a disaster,
- 13:20Speaker 1: just a real Barney Fife idiot. He's now saying, we're
- 13:23Speaker 1: getting closer, We're closer and closer. Nobody's buying this. You know,
- 13:27Speaker 1: they found some bones buried not far from that. It
- 13:29Speaker 1: turned out it was nothing to do with her. But
- 13:33Speaker 1: it's one hundred days. One hundred days. He said, developments
- 13:37Speaker 1: are really great. He wouldn't get into it. He said,
- 13:42Speaker 1: they're getting closer and closer, he said. A man in
- 13:46Speaker 1: similar clothing to the one on the doorbell camera was
- 13:48Speaker 1: spotted about three weeks ago approaching her door again. But again,
- 13:53Speaker 1: this is that local sheriff who nobody trusts, doesn't seem
- 13:56Speaker 1: to know what the hell he's doing, just seems completely incompetent.
- 14:02Speaker 1: So hey, AOC were talking about this before. I don't
- 14:05Speaker 1: know if you knew what we were talking about. But
- 14:08Speaker 1: she got a lot of flack over the weekend. She
- 14:11Speaker 1: says really really really stupid things all the time. You know,
- 14:14Speaker 1: she's the one that said, last we said it's impossible
- 14:17Speaker 1: to earn a billion dollars. Nobody could earn a billion dollars. Well,
- 14:20Speaker 1: there are people that have a billion, Yeah, but they
- 14:22Speaker 1: didn't earn it. It was about using cheap labor or
- 14:25Speaker 1: sweatshops or exploiting. Well, a lot of people earned a billion.
- 14:29Speaker 1: It's more about a brilliant invention. You invent the iPhone,
- 14:32Speaker 1: you can make a billion dollars. You invent Microsoft, you
- 14:36Speaker 1: can make a billion dollars. And people are pointing out
- 14:39Speaker 1: that she should talk because she's never earned any money
- 14:42Speaker 1: at all. Ever, people pointing out that every single penny
- 14:47Speaker 1: she's ever been paid in Congress, every cent that she's
- 14:51Speaker 1: been given, all the money she's earned, was taken by
- 14:55Speaker 1: force from citizens. It was taken by force from taxpayers
- 15:00Speaker 1: were forced to give her this money. So she didn't
- 15:02Speaker 1: actually earn anything. All the money she gets taken by
- 15:05Speaker 1: force from taxpayers. But this is the one that really
- 15:07Speaker 1: got her a lot of flack. You don't realize how
- 15:10Speaker 1: dumb she You know, she went to Boston College, a
- 15:13Speaker 1: Boston university bu b You's a great school. She went
- 15:17Speaker 1: there and apparently never learned about anything history. The American Revolution.
- 15:22Speaker 1: Doesn't even understand what the country's all about, because she
- 15:25Speaker 1: went on the air everywhere and said the American Revolution
- 15:29Speaker 1: was about breaking away from the billionaires. It was about
- 15:32Speaker 1: fighting against the billionaires. So everybody online, even professors historians,
- 15:38Speaker 1: had explained her, this is absolutely false. The revolution was
- 15:41Speaker 1: not against billionaires. In fact, the people fighting it for us,
- 15:46Speaker 1: George Washington, were the wealthiest people in the world. Washington, Jefferson, Franklin.
- 15:51Speaker 1: These were very wealthy guys. Washington was pretty much a
- 15:56Speaker 1: billionaire for his time. He was worth about it would
- 15:59Speaker 1: actually be into to day's dollars, so it would be
- 16:01Speaker 1: about six hundred million that he was worth. But our
- 16:04Speaker 1: founding fathers were extremely wealthy and extremely wealthy guys. So
- 16:08Speaker 1: it was not a fight against billionaires. It was a
- 16:11Speaker 1: fight against unfair taxation, which is what AOC is all about.
- 16:16Speaker 1: So they were actually fighting her. They were fighting unfair taxation.
- 16:21Speaker 1: Historians explained to her. They were fighting intrusive government that
- 16:25Speaker 1: went past its limits, that started to regulate or tax things.
- 16:29Speaker 1: They had no authority to, so the revolution was actually
- 16:32Speaker 1: against people like Mom Donnie, against people like aoc hey.
- 16:37Speaker 1: We'll take some calls next. Eight hundred three to two
- 16:40Speaker 1: one zero seven ten is the number. Eight hundred three
- 16:44Speaker 1: two one zero seven ten
