- 1:10Speaker 2: you want because he's with both hands. Okay, now back
- 1:15Speaker 2: we go, and here we're going to talk about. Of course,
- 1:18Speaker 2: this is the big story, and that is the attack
- 1:23Speaker 2: on the president and other members high end members of
- 1:28Speaker 2: the administration by this alleged shooter. God, I love this
- 1:35Speaker 2: alleged because they always say that because he hasn't been
- 1:37Speaker 2: convicted yet. But I'll say he's the shooter. Go ahead
- 1:39Speaker 2: and sue me Cole Thomas Allen. And the question is
- 1:45Speaker 2: how did he get Number one, how did he get
- 1:47Speaker 2: in near the ballroom? And two? How did they not
- 1:52Speaker 2: know how crazy he was or what his political motives are?
- 1:57Speaker 2: I know he had written to his parents, actually members
- 2:03Speaker 2: of his family. He told family members that he was
- 2:06Speaker 2: a friendly federal assassin. I don't even know what that means.
- 2:11Speaker 2: Maybe he was going to change his name to Casper
- 2:13Speaker 2: the friendly Federal Assassin. You know, we've never heard that before.
- 2:18Speaker 2: And he said in his quote manifesto on why I
- 2:23Speaker 2: did any of this, I'm a citizen in the United States.
- 2:26Speaker 2: What my representatives do reflects on me. I am no
- 2:29Speaker 2: longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, trader to coat
- 2:33Speaker 2: my hands with his crimes. Now, he did not mention
- 2:36Speaker 2: the president specifically, but who are we kidding?
- 2:39Speaker 1: You know what?
- 2:41Speaker 2: You know who was he referring to? And he clearly
- 2:44Speaker 2: had a huge problem as to what he thought the
- 2:50Speaker 2: administration was doing and the president. I think this is
- 2:53Speaker 2: what the third time out that the president has that
- 2:56Speaker 2: there have been an attempt on the president. What we need,
- 3:00Speaker 2: what we're not told, is how often this happens. And
- 3:05Speaker 2: I think, and I think I'm right, it happens dozens
- 3:08Speaker 2: of times where people try to assassinate a president. And
- 3:13Speaker 2: I think in this case, one that is so politically
- 3:17Speaker 2: motivated and then so polarized that people if you're upset
- 3:21Speaker 2: with a president, you're particularly upset. So I believe most
- 3:26Speaker 2: that more of these assassination attempts are made on President
- 3:29Speaker 2: Trump than any of the others. And I don't think
- 3:31Speaker 2: the Secret Service or the FBI is going to tell
- 3:33Speaker 2: us how many there are, because there are so many.
- 3:36Speaker 2: So the question is how did he do this? How
- 3:39Speaker 2: come he wasn't caught? He was Casper the friendly assassin
- 3:45Speaker 2: and effectively told everybody what he was going to do.
- 3:49Speaker 2: Now did he tell him quickly enough? We don't know
- 3:51Speaker 2: when he wrote the manifesto, and we don't know specifically
- 3:54Speaker 2: when he sent the manifesto and whether the family members
- 3:58Speaker 2: went forward with secure went to the authorities, and at
- 4:03Speaker 2: this point we don't know. I would assume that they
- 4:05Speaker 2: would uh seeing this kind of an email or a
- 4:10Speaker 2: missive And so the question is how did he do it?
- 4:14Speaker 2: How did he get past any magn meg I always
- 4:18Speaker 2: get that word screwed up. Uh. These amy helped me
- 4:25Speaker 2: with a pronounce detector, metal detectors. That is a much
- 4:30Speaker 2: better way of doing it. How he got past the
- 4:31Speaker 2: metal detectors, Well, he came by train for one thing,
- 4:35Speaker 2: so you don't get the security by airplane. He checked
- 4:38Speaker 2: into the hotel and they don't search baggage, so clearly
- 4:43Speaker 2: he had the gun with him, and he went to
- 4:47Speaker 2: the lobby and Uh then he tried tried to get
- 4:52Speaker 2: into the ballroom, which is impossible. Uh with that kind
- 4:56Speaker 2: of security with a weapon, it's just not going to happen.
- 4:58Speaker 2: Because they did do the metal detectors of everybody walking in.
- 5:04Speaker 2: So there's a story about what happened with the FBI,
- 5:09Speaker 2: the level of security. And I'm a big fan of
- 5:13Speaker 2: the FBI and the Secret Service because there are many
- 5:16Speaker 2: layers here. They know what they're doing. All right, So
- 5:20Speaker 2: what happened yesterday at the or Saturday at the correspondence dinner.
- 5:26Speaker 2: It was yesterday or Saturday because I was unconscious for
- 5:30Speaker 2: most of the time. Actually not the attack on the president,
- 5:36Speaker 2: even though the attacker, the suspect did not specifically talk
- 5:40Speaker 2: about it in his manifesto that he was attacking the
- 5:43Speaker 2: attacking the president per se. He was actually attacking the
- 5:46Speaker 2: entire administration except for Cash Pattel. For some reason, he
- 5:51Speaker 2: specifically left out Cash Btel. We have yet to figure
- 5:54Speaker 2: it out. And as you can imagine, the security went
- 5:58Speaker 2: completely brazik. This guy was running in the lobby, went
- 6:02Speaker 2: to the next to the ballroom, and the Secret Service
- 6:06Speaker 2: the just knocked him cold. I mean it was it.
- 6:09Speaker 2: He was running and you had the Secret Service and
- 6:13Speaker 2: the police there that were security was very, very tight.
- 6:17Speaker 2: They did exactly what they were going to do, what
- 6:18Speaker 2: they should have done. So the shots ringing out, and
- 6:21Speaker 2: what happened there wasn't inside the ballroom, but inside the
- 6:24Speaker 2: ballroom it was a little bit of panic because they
- 6:28Speaker 2: heard the shots and no surprise to anybody there. And
- 6:32Speaker 2: so the police grabbed the president and grabbed his wife
- 6:37Speaker 2: immediately and shuffled him off to safety. Same thing with
- 6:40Speaker 2: a vice president, shuffled him off, matter of fact, dragged
- 6:44Speaker 2: him away with his wife. And then you have everybody else.
- 6:50Speaker 2: You had the cabinet officials, you had senior members the
- 6:54Speaker 2: administration that were sent to a safe place. Which what
- 7:01Speaker 2: the Secret Service does. It's the security personnel. They know
- 7:06Speaker 2: exactly where they're going to take, especially the president in
- 7:09Speaker 2: case of an assassination attempt. What happens with the other
- 7:13Speaker 2: members of the families of these high end officials in
- 7:19Speaker 2: the administration are left behind goodbye. You can fend for yourself.
- 7:26Speaker 2: So can you imagine You've got a cabinet secretary who
- 7:30Speaker 2: has security, but the scurity, the security only goes to
- 7:35Speaker 2: that cabinet or high end administration for example, of the speaker,
- 7:41Speaker 2: and so you have the Secret Service grabbing him, the
- 7:45Speaker 2: Metropolitan Police grabbing in his case, Mike Johnson, and the
- 7:50Speaker 2: wife is left behind to duck under the table to
- 7:56Speaker 2: make sure that if you're going to get shot, you're
- 7:59Speaker 2: going to be doing under the table, because your chances
- 8:01Speaker 2: of being shot there, I guess are less than okay,
- 8:05Speaker 2: I don't know. And now keep in mind these women
- 8:09Speaker 2: were in ball gowns and that's not fun as you're
- 8:13Speaker 2: diving under these table I wish. I don't know if
- 8:16Speaker 2: there's any photos, if they've posted anything about these people
- 8:20Speaker 2: underneath the tables. No, but have you not that I've seen?
- 8:23Speaker 3: Have you seen the video of the aftermath when the
- 8:28Speaker 3: journalists and guests were taking bottles of champagne and putting
- 8:33Speaker 3: them in their purse and stuff as.
- 8:34Speaker 2: They left it, because expense on the table, they're taking
- 8:38Speaker 2: it with them. Yes, that's true. And then yes, you
- 8:43Speaker 2: can imagine the place was a got awful mess as
- 8:46Speaker 2: the president was being shuffled off. Because the president has
- 8:49Speaker 2: been the target of I think three assassination attempts that
- 8:53Speaker 2: we know of during his second administration. And I be
- 8:59Speaker 2: and I asked this question because I know for I
- 9:02Speaker 2: don't know for a fact, but I have heard, and
- 9:04Speaker 2: I'll argue that it's a fact that these attempts upon
- 9:09Speaker 2: the president, the vice president, senior members the administration, but
- 9:13Speaker 2: particularly the president. There are dozens of those we know
- 9:17Speaker 2: the threats. There are hundreds, maybe thousands of those. If
- 9:24Speaker 2: people who argue that the president's a horrible person, for example,
- 9:29Speaker 2: Linz hates the president, I mean just hates her. I
- 9:32Speaker 2: hates the president, as does Anne truly hates the president.
- 9:36Speaker 2: I go, you got to be really careful. Now you
- 9:39Speaker 2: can say all day I wish the president were dead,
- 9:43Speaker 2: I wish the president was injured. That's the first Amendment issue.
- 9:48Speaker 2: You're allowed to say that, do not say I am
- 9:52Speaker 2: going to That is a big difference. Even I wish
- 9:57Speaker 2: that the president would be dead. I think in many
- 10:01Speaker 2: cases would get get you an interview with the FBI
- 10:04Speaker 2: just to say hello and put you on some kind
- 10:08Speaker 2: of a list. You got to be very, very careful
- 10:11Speaker 2: because the mirrrest thought of a threat brings out the FBI.
- 10:17Speaker 2: And we've had our history of assassinations in this country,
- 10:22Speaker 2: and it was in many cases that you didn't have security.
- 10:25Speaker 2: I mean the last assassination I think where there was
- 10:29Speaker 2: major security was probably JFK. Prior to that, anybody could
- 10:34Speaker 2: walk up to the president and Garfield for example, was shot.
- 10:38Speaker 2: You had Abraham Lincoln. Of course, security was one guy
- 10:41Speaker 2: at the foot of the Stayers who was drunk, Parker
- 10:43Speaker 2: I think was his name, and he was never nailed
- 10:46Speaker 2: for it. He was drunk and asleep when John Wilkes
- 10:48Speaker 2: Booth came up and shot him in the presidential box.
- 10:52Speaker 2: Can you imagine that today? So now the Secret Service,
- 10:56Speaker 2: of course, is all over it. I mean, there is
- 10:59Speaker 2: no quiet the kind of security that the president has.
- 11:03Speaker 2: And this is a situation where they're making a very
- 11:07Speaker 2: big deal about this, maybe because it was the the
- 11:10Speaker 2: White House corresponding standar, Maybe because the president was set
- 11:14Speaker 2: up to nail the press. That's what they figured was
- 11:17Speaker 2: going to happen, and he admitted he was going to
- 11:19Speaker 2: go there. And I am saying that it is not
- 11:24Speaker 2: that big a deal because there are assassins out there
- 11:29Speaker 2: and will continue to be, and the security is multi layered,
- 11:36Speaker 2: it is extraordinarily tight. And if you look at the
- 11:40Speaker 2: video of Alan running past one of the security details
- 11:47Speaker 2: where there are a group of agents, I mean he's
- 11:49Speaker 2: running past, they have pulled out their guns within less
- 11:54Speaker 2: than a second after he passed, and the shots started
- 11:57Speaker 2: ringing out, and they did exactly what they're supposed to do.
- 12:02Speaker 2: And the protection was exactly the way it was supposed
- 12:05Speaker 2: to happen, and it didn't even go to the second
- 12:08Speaker 2: or third layer of security, which we know is there.
- 12:12Speaker 2: I mean, there's plenty of security in there. So to me,
- 12:17Speaker 2: it's an interesting story. It's a story about the professionality
- 12:22Speaker 2: of the police of security. It's a story of it
- 12:26Speaker 2: happened exactly the way it should have it should have happened,
- 12:31Speaker 2: and in reality it's I mean, it's it's a story
- 12:35Speaker 2: only because it's a story. I mean, I think the
- 12:39Speaker 2: fun part of the story, if you want to call
- 12:40Speaker 2: it fun, is all the correspondents diving under tables and
- 12:45Speaker 2: Neil bringing up I think that's a better story stealing
- 12:48Speaker 2: the champagne bottles because I believe dinner is included in
- 12:53Speaker 2: your ticket. However, I am guessing that alcohol is not,
- 13:00Speaker 2: and they charge extra, especially bottles of high end champagne.
- 13:06Speaker 2: You know, that's another question I have. How much was
- 13:10Speaker 2: a bottle of champagne at the dinner? And was it
- 13:15Speaker 2: worth stealing?
- 13:17Speaker 3: Hey, well, that you don't want it to go to waste,
- 13:21Speaker 3: that's so true, so sober in Africa, well said.
- 13:28Speaker 2: And I have a question ask you, and that is
- 13:31Speaker 2: do you know that Google, If you're connected to Google
- 13:37Speaker 2: or any other platform, they folks know, they know exactly
- 13:42Speaker 2: where you are. And there is a case that the
- 13:45Speaker 2: Supreme Court is looking at, and this has to do
- 13:49Speaker 2: with Fourth Amendment search and seizure unconstitutional search and seizure.
- 13:54Speaker 2: And here is the way authorities are working. There's a
- 13:58Speaker 2: bank robber and he was on his phone and the
- 14:03Speaker 2: security camera has him talking on the phone. So they
- 14:05Speaker 2: do their investigation with people that are there, the witnesses, fingerprints,
- 14:09Speaker 2: if any handwriting, because there was a note given and
- 14:12Speaker 2: no real leaves. They just didn't know. So what they
- 14:16Speaker 2: did is they police went to Google, and Google knows
- 14:20Speaker 2: where you are. And what they did is ask Google
- 14:24Speaker 2: pursue it to a search, a warrant tag everybody within
- 14:29Speaker 2: a few hundred yards of the bank. They didn't know
- 14:32Speaker 2: who it was. This is a wide net, and so
- 14:38Speaker 2: they figured out they started winnowing down where people were
- 14:42Speaker 2: within a few hundred yards or within half a mile,
- 14:46Speaker 2: and there were obviously hundreds of them, and started investigating
- 14:49Speaker 2: everybody and put together the evidence and found the guy.
- 14:54Speaker 2: And here is the question. And civil libertarians are going
- 14:57Speaker 2: nuts on this one because they're doing this without knowing
- 15:01Speaker 2: who it is. They're not going after a specific individual
- 15:07Speaker 2: or going into a specific home or a specific business
- 15:11Speaker 2: or a car that there is some evidence. There is
- 15:14Speaker 2: no evidence about these people that are being searched. This
- 15:20Speaker 2: they call this geo fencing. And the defense this bank
- 15:25Speaker 2: robber who has been convicted by the way, although the
- 15:29Speaker 2: court let him go forward with the appeal, the defense
- 15:36Speaker 2: is arguing this is such a wide net and it
- 15:39Speaker 2: captures highly personal information from hundreds, maybe thousands of people
- 15:44Speaker 2: who aren't criminals. And if the court upholds these digital
- 15:48Speaker 2: searches without an identified suspect, then the legal experts are
- 15:53Speaker 2: saying this strategy could expand through everything. Why, there are
- 15:58Speaker 2: search engines, there's cloud storege there's AI chats that are
- 16:02Speaker 2: out there, of which these platforms have access to. For example,
- 16:06Speaker 2: Google they have five hundred million users, and so this
- 16:15Speaker 2: warrant went to Google, and Google went through the five
- 16:19Speaker 2: hundred million. This is obviously it took a few people
- 16:22Speaker 2: to do this. I mean, they hired these people at
- 16:26Speaker 2: minimum wage to go through five hundred million. They really
- 16:29Speaker 2: didn't obviously, it's an algorithm. Algorithm they have, but it's fine,
- 16:33Speaker 2: kind of funny actually, And they went through all of it,
- 16:37Speaker 2: and Google turned around and said, here's the information. Google
- 16:41Speaker 2: says they get three thousand warrants every year for this
- 16:44Speaker 2: kind of stuff and they turn them down. Those are
- 16:48Speaker 2: the ones they turned down. And so right now, I
- 16:52Speaker 2: mean the court is looking at that. And here is
- 16:55Speaker 2: an argument, incidentally, that search of this man robbery found
- 17:00Speaker 2: nineteen phones near the bank. The phones were on at
- 17:04Speaker 2: that time. The owners remained anonymous at that time, and
- 17:09Speaker 2: the police asked Google for the names of three of
- 17:12Speaker 2: those phone owners that they were able to track down.
- 17:15Speaker 2: One of them was the robber himself. But again, that's
- 17:19Speaker 2: going through personal information of millions and millions of people.
- 17:24Speaker 2: And that's true because the constitutional argument that the defense
- 17:30Speaker 2: have the technology might be novel, but the constitutional problem
- 17:34Speaker 2: it presents is not. And here is I love this argument.
- 17:39Speaker 2: I mean read this. I want to get this proper
- 17:41Speaker 2: argument and get some specific language, because I really love
- 17:46Speaker 2: that the defense said that searches like this could reveal
- 17:51Speaker 2: when people visit the psychiatrists, for example, or the plastic surgeon,
- 17:58Speaker 2: the aborshe aboord clinic, that someone goes to the AIDS
- 18:03Speaker 2: treatment center, the strip club, a criminal defense attorney, a
- 18:08Speaker 2: buy the our motel, a union meeting, a mosque, synagogue
- 18:13Speaker 2: or church, the gay bar on and on in terms
- 18:18Speaker 2: of invasion of privacy because the government would know and
- 18:21Speaker 2: keep in mind, they don't know who you are, but
- 18:25Speaker 2: they're going to find out you could leave your phone
- 18:28Speaker 2: at home, you could and not use it. That's correct,
- 18:32Speaker 2: and the fund. Can you turn off your phone, yes,
- 18:35Speaker 2: but do people turn them off? No, my phone's on
- 18:37Speaker 2: all day. Your phone is on all day. And this
- 18:41Speaker 2: geo fencing, you could, I think you can opt out
- 18:45Speaker 2: for this, but it defaults to that. By the way,
- 18:49Speaker 2: these in this argument that defense had Chartree's defense the
- 18:54Speaker 2: bank robber. And I went through the numbers. The psychiatrist
- 18:59Speaker 2: to play surgeon, the abortion clinic, the age treatment center,
- 19:02Speaker 2: the strip club, on and on. There were eleven of these.
- 19:06Speaker 2: I'm good for about half of them. That's what I
- 19:09Speaker 2: was laughing at it.
- 19:10Speaker 3: So like here, once you said gay bar and hotel
- 19:13Speaker 3: by the fifteen minute increments, I thought of you.
- 19:16Speaker 2: Yeah, and the Aide treatment center. Why because insurance companies,
- 19:20Speaker 2: for example, if you have AIDS and you come in
- 19:23Speaker 2: and by a policy that's pretty existing, and Obamacare is
- 19:27Speaker 2: under huge attack as we know, and if it's overturned,
- 19:32Speaker 2: if the government is able to undo Obamacare, the government
- 19:35Speaker 2: has been able to unto a lot of what Obama
- 19:38Speaker 2: and what Joe Biden did. It's several libertarians are pretty upset.
- 19:43Speaker 2: So we'll see what the court has to say interesting stuff. Okay, Neil,
- 19:50Speaker 2: before we go on, you have a Dodgers mentioned.
- 19:53Speaker 3: Yes, indeed, tonight you're back to back world champion Dodgers
- 19:57Speaker 3: take on the Marlins at Dodgers Stadium with first pitch
- 20:01Speaker 3: at seven. Listen to the game in HD on the

- 20:11Speaker 3: Keyword AM five seventy LA Sports.
- 20:15Speaker 2: Well, I want I spend a minute talking about American
- 20:19Speaker 2: Jews and what's going on in Israel and what's happening.
- 20:23Speaker 2: How conflated Jews and Zionism, the religion is, the culture
- 20:29Speaker 2: is to Zionism. First of all, there's a huge difference
- 20:32Speaker 2: and people conflated. If you are Jewish, therefore you are
- 20:37Speaker 2: a Zionist, and you believe in the state of Israel.
- 20:40Speaker 2: Well used to be that way in huge numbers. Now
- 20:44Speaker 2: so much not now so much. Why Well, because of
- 20:48Speaker 2: what Israel is doing in Gaza and to a much
- 20:51Speaker 2: smaller extent in Lebanon. I mean, I believe that the
- 20:55Speaker 2: bombing of Gaza, to the extent that the bombing is
- 20:59Speaker 2: taking place, is a war crime. There's no question in
- 21:01Speaker 2: my mind that it is. One hundred thousand Palestinians have
- 21:04Speaker 2: been killed, and eighty percent of the infrastructure is gone.
- 21:08Speaker 2: I mean eighty percent of the homes and the businesses
- 21:12Speaker 2: are gone. So what ends up happening is and this
- 21:15Speaker 2: is what unfortunately is happening, is that and I'm talking
- 21:19Speaker 2: about the United States is looking at Israel in a
- 21:23Speaker 2: very very different light than it used to be, particularly
- 21:27Speaker 2: among Democrats. Democrats are well, first of all, a lot
- 21:32Speaker 2: of Jews, most Jews are Democrats, and everybody was in
- 21:36Speaker 2: favor of Israel. I mean, universally Americans were pro Israel.
- 21:41Speaker 2: Now it has changed because of what Israel is doing,
- 21:45Speaker 2: and politically Netanyahu and Israelis are looking at a very
- 21:51Speaker 2: different dynamic because who is the number one ally in
- 21:55Speaker 2: terms of Israel's concerned by a long shot the United States,
- 21:59Speaker 2: and the United States is not doing what it used
- 22:02Speaker 2: to do.
- 22:04Speaker 1: Now.
- 22:05Speaker 2: For me, the interesting part is that traditionally Democrats were
- 22:09Speaker 2: pro Israel. That's for the most part is gone. The
- 22:12Speaker 2: Republicans who were not as pro Israel, except the religious
- 22:19Speaker 2: the Christians were. It gets really weird that you have Christians,
- 22:23Speaker 2: particularly fundamental Christians, who are fanatically pro Israel. Why is that, Well,
- 22:28Speaker 2: because the anti Muslim, the anti Islam view of the
- 22:32Speaker 2: world is in direct contradiction to what we believe in.
- 22:38Speaker 2: Let's say you are a Christian, right, well, it's the
- 22:42Speaker 2: same God. Well it's always the same God, and Christians
- 22:45Speaker 2: believe that Israel and well, the reality is not talked
- 22:49Speaker 2: to many that it's just a question of time before
- 22:52Speaker 2: Jews understand that Jesus is there. So we're really on
- 22:56Speaker 2: the same page. Jews are just a few millennia behind
- 23:01Speaker 2: what Christians believe in. So there's a very close connection,
- 23:05Speaker 2: very close. Well, the problem is you have a government
- 23:08Speaker 2: in Israel that is looking at the United States, and
- 23:13Speaker 2: you have Americans that are looking at Israel, and there
- 23:16Speaker 2: were almost so far apart that you would think that
- 23:21Speaker 2: we're no longer the allies we used to be, and
- 23:23Speaker 2: you'd be absolutely right. The politics have changed completely. You're
- 23:27Speaker 2: also going to hear the phrase diaspora Jews. Diasper Jews
- 23:32Speaker 2: are those who are all over the world, and there
- 23:36Speaker 2: are more Jews, far more Jews that are camped out
- 23:38Speaker 2: all over the world in Israel. Israel became a state
- 23:42Speaker 2: in nineteen forty eight, and you had many, many, many
- 23:45Speaker 2: Jews around the world. New York has more Jews, well
- 23:52Speaker 2: than any city other than I think Tel Aviv, La
- 23:56Speaker 2: has a huge population of Jews. If you look at
- 23:59Speaker 2: the population some Jews just in the United States alone,
- 24:03Speaker 2: far greater than the number of Jews at our in Israel,
- 24:07Speaker 2: especially if you put together let's say the Western Hemisphere.
- 24:11Speaker 2: And why because well, Jews have been persecuted. They have
- 24:14Speaker 2: to get the hell out of dodge. I mean, there
- 24:17Speaker 2: is no place the Jews have lived anywhere in the
- 24:19Speaker 2: world where there wasn't persecution and case in point. And
- 24:23Speaker 2: I bring this up because my dad had to leave Europe.
- 24:30Speaker 2: He became a diaspora Jew because he would have been
- 24:34Speaker 2: one of probably one of the six million that were murdered.
- 24:38Speaker 2: And I never met my grandparents, I never met his parents,
- 24:41Speaker 2: I never met his side of the family. For the
- 24:43Speaker 2: most part, my grandparents were put on a cattle cattle
- 24:48Speaker 2: truck or a cattle car from it was from Zagrea, Yugoslavia,
- 24:54Speaker 2: straight to Auschwitz where they were gassed and were killed.
- 25:00Speaker 2: And I'm not alone because this happened to millions and
- 25:02Speaker 2: millions of people. So this is I come from diaspora Jews,
- 25:08Speaker 2: Jews that have left and camped out. And the safest
- 25:11Speaker 2: place to have done this is the United States because
- 25:15Speaker 2: of the connection the United States with Israel. Change. The
- 25:20Speaker 2: world has changed, and Israel is not doing a good job.
- 25:24Speaker 2: And it's all the tan Yahoo and the far right government,
- 25:27Speaker 2: the war cabinet. That's what it's about. And we'll see
- 25:30Speaker 2: how far that goes. Israel has become a pria state.
- 25:35Speaker 2: Who would have ever thought Israel wou'd become a para state?
- 25:40Speaker 2: And that is what's happening. Okay, that's a little bit depressing.
- 25:45Speaker 2: Now it's not depressing. The next topic and that is
- 25:48Speaker 2: how crazy are fk Jr? Now I could do this
- 25:51Speaker 2: every day? Okay, how crazy is orefk Jr. As a
- 25:55Speaker 2: matter of fact, I could say all the segments on

- 26:03Speaker 2: rest of the week. And this is a little bit
- 26:07Speaker 2: of offshoot, but the story, but it's another you know,
