0:02
Speaker 1: Hey, guys, we are back on normal like the show
0:04
Speaker 1: with normalish takes for when the news gets weird. It's
0:07
Speaker 1: weird this week already. How's it going, Carol, I'm maryam sorry.
0:13
Speaker 2: Him, Mary Catherine, I'm Carol Markowitz. Yeah, you know, coming
0:17
Speaker 2: out of a hard weekend. An attack in Boulder, Colorado
0:22
Speaker 2: on Jews who were protesting for the release of the hostages.
0:26
Speaker 2: In Gaza, a man was filmed setting Jewish.
0:29
Speaker 3: People on fire.
0:31
Speaker 2: They marched there every week, and this march actually happens
0:34
Speaker 2: in lots of places. I have a friend who participates
0:37
Speaker 2: in this march every week in North Carolina, so this
0:40
Speaker 2: certainly does seem premeditated. This guy was ready to go
0:45
Speaker 2: with some gardening equipment that he had fashioned as a
0:48
Speaker 2: Molotov cocktail. I'll also say I haven't seen this mentioned elsewhere,
0:53
Speaker 2: but these are almost certainly once again piece necks. These
0:57
Speaker 2: are people who I bet if you talk to them,
0:59
Speaker 2: they all on a twesday solution. They just want the
1:03
Speaker 2: hostages released. I would bet the farm that they're all
1:06
Speaker 2: Peacenicks and peace nick adjacent and that once again they're
1:11
Speaker 2: the ones being targeted for harm because they were you know,
1:15
Speaker 2: the kind of people that wouldn't be carrying weapons. They
1:18
Speaker 2: were the kind of people that wouldn't be able to
1:19
Speaker 2: fight back, and so that's what happened. In Colorado.
1:23
Speaker 1: Eight people were injured, mostly with burns Onlookers and others
1:27
Speaker 1: at the site were, you know, grabbing water from the
1:30
Speaker 1: municipal fountain to douse them with until medical attention got there.
1:35
Speaker 1: The suspect is forty five year old Mohammed Savarei Solimon,
1:38
Speaker 1: and he was yelling free Palestine and other very obvious
1:43
Speaker 1: indications of motive while he was doing this crime. Although
1:48
Speaker 1: shortly afterwards, despite this, the Boulder police were like, let's
1:52
Speaker 1: not get ahead of ourselves, un native right, And CNN's
1:56
Speaker 1: broadcast was like, isn't it a little much for Cash
1:59
Speaker 1: Betel and the FBI to jump to this conclusion?
2:01
Speaker 3: And I would like to say, no, it's not at
2:03
Speaker 3: all too much. It's not because he's on video, right,
2:05
Speaker 3: he's on video.
2:07
Speaker 2: I'll also say that the response from the Trump administration
2:13
Speaker 2: and law enforcement has been exactly what I, as a
2:17
Speaker 2: Jew living in America, would like to see. The federal
2:20
Speaker 2: government has charged Mohammed Salomon with a hate crime, with
2:24
Speaker 2: more charges to potentially follow They're not waiting to see
2:27
Speaker 2: what the Boulder police.
2:28
Speaker 4: Is going to charge him with.
2:29
Speaker 2: They took action on their own. FBI Deputy Director Dan
2:33
Speaker 2: Bengino tweeted, we are investigating this incident as an act
2:36
Speaker 2: of terror and targeted violence. All of the necessary assets
2:39
Speaker 2: will be dedicated to this investigation. Trump truthed in capital
2:44
Speaker 2: letters that the attacks will not be tolerated. And so
2:47
Speaker 2: what I've said for years and years, because attacks on
2:50
Speaker 2: Jews have been going on for I mean more than
2:53
Speaker 2: a decade, fairly regularly in places like Brooklyn, New York.
2:56
Speaker 3: And what I would always say.
2:58
Speaker 1: Ignored by the press. You have you have done a
3:00
Speaker 1: good job of highlighting them. They're ignored by the press
3:03
Speaker 1: unless they can blame it on a right leaning person.
3:07
Speaker 2: That's absolutely right. So what I would say about it
3:09
Speaker 2: is what I would always write about attacks like this
3:12
Speaker 2: or in any antismatic incidents, is it's always going to happen.
3:17
Speaker 2: I guess that's how I sort of see it. But
3:19
Speaker 2: it's the reaction from authorities and from the people that
3:24
Speaker 2: matters to me. Like a lot of times in France,
3:27
Speaker 2: for example, they'll have anti Semitic attacks and they'll be
3:30
Speaker 2: very shoulder shruggy. The reaction from the Trump administration from
3:34
Speaker 2: the top down has been exactly what I wanted to see.
3:36
Speaker 2: This is what I voted for.
3:38
Speaker 1: Well, and like as in the past, if you see
3:42
Speaker 1: like Charlottesville or Tree of Life, like these things. As
3:44
Speaker 1: long as they the culprit is correct, Yeah, they can
3:49
Speaker 1: make a big deal out of it. They can make
3:50
Speaker 1: this a nationally known incident. And the Trump administration responding
3:55
Speaker 1: in this way goes a long way to making this
3:58
Speaker 1: one a memorable incident, which is what needs to happen.
4:03
Speaker 1: Our friend Agie Hamilton on Twitter noted that and I
4:09
Speaker 1: had almost already forgotten about this one, that Governor Shapiro's
4:14
Speaker 1: men was attacked with the intent to hurt and kill
4:18
Speaker 1: his family just in the last two months, and now
4:21
Speaker 1: we've got the two young people tragically murdered on the
4:26
Speaker 1: streets of Washington, DC, And now we've got this.
4:29
Speaker 3: By the way, Bill Mlusion.
4:31
Speaker 1: I think, was first to report that this is an
4:32
Speaker 1: illegal immigrant. He's an Egyptian who was let in on
4:36
Speaker 1: a tourist visa which expired. He later applied for asylum.
4:41
Speaker 1: It was granted at some point, but that has also expired,
4:46
Speaker 1: and he's just hanging out molotov cocktailing Jews in the streets.
4:50
Speaker 4: That's right.
4:51
Speaker 2: And so what I would also say is that I
4:53
Speaker 2: am concerned about leftist violence, not just aimed at Jews.
4:57
Speaker 2: I think that Americans who are not Jewish, Americans who
5:01
Speaker 2: don't care about Israel one way or the other, should
5:04
Speaker 2: take very seriously what's happening here, because this, to me
5:07
Speaker 2: seems like the beginning. It seems like this could easily spread.
5:12
Speaker 2: We see the Luigi Mangioni becoming a hero after killing
5:16
Speaker 2: a healthcare executive in the street. If you get to
5:19
Speaker 2: kill whoever you don't like on the streets of America,
5:23
Speaker 2: believe me, this will not end with Jews. And I
5:26
Speaker 2: think people need to understand that well.
5:28
Speaker 3: And I haven't forgotten the summer of twenty twenty.
5:31
Speaker 4: Hm.
5:31
Speaker 1: It was just all out whatever you were up for
5:35
Speaker 1: because you were ticked off. You could destroy businesses, you
5:39
Speaker 1: could hurt people, people died, you could attack people in
5:42
Speaker 1: those autonomous zones. That's right, assaults and sexual assaults happen regularly,
5:49
Speaker 1: and all of that was sort of deemed the cost
5:52
Speaker 1: of doing business because America needed to pay for it.
5:55
Speaker 1: Since and that is what far too many people on
5:58
Speaker 1: the left belief and they are willing to put up
6:01
Speaker 1: with and even celebrate in some cases, as.
6:03
Speaker 3: We see with Luigi Mangioni.
6:05
Speaker 1: It's very creepy. It's some of the more disturbing stuff
6:10
Speaker 1: that I see. Sulomon, by the way, was interviewed and
6:15
Speaker 1: said that this is Bill millusion of Fox reporting again.
6:18
Speaker 1: So he wants to kill all Zionist people, So you
6:21
Speaker 1: can imagine how many people he could put in that category.
6:23
Speaker 1: He allegedly told investigators that he waited to carry out
6:26
Speaker 1: the attack until his daughter graduated high school, and then
6:28
Speaker 1: he specifically targeted the Zionist group in Boulder after learning
6:31
Speaker 1: about them from an online search. It was premeditated. They
6:35
Speaker 1: found a black container with fourteen more Molotov cocktails near
6:38
Speaker 1: the spot where he was arrested. Inside his vehicle, investigators
6:41
Speaker 1: found paperwork with the words Israel, Palestine and USAID.
6:44
Speaker 3: Because this is to.
6:46
Speaker 1: Your point, Carol, it's the Omni cause, right, He's ticked
6:49
Speaker 1: off at Elon Musk about USAID, so he's got to
6:53
Speaker 1: attack some peaceful citizens of his city a town square
6:58
Speaker 1: because of USAID AID cuts.
7:02
Speaker 2: Sure, yeah, right, it is the Omni cause, and it
7:05
Speaker 2: could be anything that they want it to be at
7:07
Speaker 2: any time. So this needs to be put down. I
7:10
Speaker 2: will say bluntly, I'm amazed that he got to arrest.
7:15
Speaker 2: I think in certain places I hope that I'm correct
7:18
Speaker 2: in saying this, but I feel like in Florida that
7:20
Speaker 2: he does not make it to the police car.
7:22
Speaker 3: And that's, you know, the way I think it should be.
7:26
Speaker 2: I think you should be armed, you should protect yourself
7:29
Speaker 2: and others, and if somebody's throwing molotov cocktails and setting
7:32
Speaker 2: elderly people on fire, I should hope that somebody is
7:36
Speaker 2: carrying and able to defend those people.
7:39
Speaker 1: Yes, this makes me want to see more people armed, absolutely,
7:43
Speaker 1: and to have plenty of those good guys who are
7:47
Speaker 1: armed at every exaggeration that might be subject to this
7:50
Speaker 1: kind of attack.
7:51
Speaker 2: We'll be right back on normally, what are the Democrats
7:58
Speaker 2: up to? What are they focused on? Do they are
8:02
Speaker 2: they changing their perspective on trans athletes?
8:06
Speaker 1: Well, you'll remember, Carol that we covered Gavin Newsom saying yeah,
8:11
Speaker 1: this really isn't fair because he's doing his big switch
8:14
Speaker 1: to attract the normies, right and so on podcasts. He's
8:18
Speaker 1: happy to say this seems bad, but when it comes
8:21
Speaker 1: to the actual policies of the state of California, he
8:25
Speaker 1: has not put his foot down. The federal government, via
8:30
Speaker 1: executive order from Trump has said, hey, you guys have
8:32
Speaker 1: to follow Title nine or else you will lose your funds.
8:35
Speaker 1: And Title nine means respecting women's sports and women's spaces,
8:39
Speaker 1: not just the competition but the locker rooms. And California's like, yeah,
8:43
Speaker 1: but we have like our super crazy laws and we
8:46
Speaker 1: have to do those. And so right now you have
8:49
Speaker 1: a big fight that sort of culminated in the state
8:51
Speaker 1: championship in Clovis, California, with this track and field athlete
8:56
Speaker 1: ab Hernandez, who is a boy who identifies as a girl,
9:01
Speaker 1: and the state High School Association tried to make sort
9:04
Speaker 1: of last minute changes to attempt to comply with the
9:08
Speaker 1: Trump administration or to make everyone happy, and they said
9:11
Speaker 1: basically like we're not going to take anything from any
9:14
Speaker 1: of the women athletes, Like this guy is going to
9:17
Speaker 1: get to compete, he's going to end up first place
9:20
Speaker 1: in a couple of categories or something or whatever, but
9:22
Speaker 1: then we're just going to add the women who would
9:25
Speaker 1: otherwise have gotten those and they'll also get it. So
9:28
Speaker 1: it's like they're twisting themselves in knots to satisfy one athlete,
9:34
Speaker 1: Aby Hernandez, in this particular state, in these events. And
9:40
Speaker 1: it won't surprise you, Carol, to know that Aby Hernandez,
9:43
Speaker 1: it turns out, was a was quite successful this week.
9:47
Speaker 1: Hernandez took first place in the girl's triple jump, tied
9:50
Speaker 1: for first place in the girl's high jump, and got
9:52
Speaker 1: second place in the girl's long jump. Yes, that's right,
9:56
Speaker 1: reports National Review. The California state girls champion in the
9:59
Speaker 1: high and triple jump is a boy. It's quite obvious
10:04
Speaker 1: when you look at this competitor that he has a
10:08
Speaker 1: lot of advantages. In fact, you know, finished inches and
10:13
Speaker 1: inches ahead.
10:15
Speaker 3: Close.
10:16
Speaker 2: Yeah.
10:17
Speaker 3: No, his mom is.
10:19
Speaker 1: Doing me, doing the the all the rounds with the
10:22
Speaker 1: media and then saying, no, one's respecting my child's privacy.
10:27
Speaker 1: The mom of one of the other would be winners says,
10:31
Speaker 1: I don't have a problem with trans people. I have
10:33
Speaker 1: a problem with boys competing with girls, and I don't
10:35
Speaker 1: think it's fair. It is uncomfortable knowing that there's a
10:38
Speaker 1: man on the field that she's competing against, and knowing
10:40
Speaker 1: that the playing field is not equal. It does I
10:43
Speaker 1: think affect their confidence, and I think it affects their
10:45
Speaker 1: demeanor out on the field.
10:48
Speaker 2: How could he not how it affect them?
10:51
Speaker 3: And it's very obvious. He's tall, he's broad, he has
10:55
Speaker 3: narrow hips, he has very obvious muscles. He is taller
10:58
Speaker 3: than most of the girls out there.
11:02
Speaker 1: In his triple jump, he finished almost ten inches further
11:05
Speaker 1: right than saw that, Like, come.
11:09
Speaker 2: On, yeah, it's so galling. This this whole idea of
11:14
Speaker 2: are they better?
11:15
Speaker 5: Are they?
11:17
Speaker 2: Is there something intrinsically more athletic about men than women?
11:21
Speaker 3: What could it be?
11:22
Speaker 6: You know?
11:23
Speaker 7: Yes, there is?
11:23
Speaker 1: Actually, this is the new line from the left is
11:26
Speaker 1: there haven't been enough studies for us to really know.
11:30
Speaker 1: And this to me really echoes the COVID insanity. Or
11:34
Speaker 1: it was like knowledge that was previously had and universally understood,
11:41
Speaker 1: like that babies and children need to see faces to
11:44
Speaker 1: learn how to communicate with other humans. That knowledge was
11:47
Speaker 1: discarded and we pretended that we had never had it,
11:50
Speaker 1: right and then and then people like the American Academy
11:52
Speaker 1: of Pediatrics are like, we don't have any evidence that
11:56
Speaker 1: it affects speech.
11:56
Speaker 3: If you come, no, we don't know. We don't have
11:59
Speaker 3: enough study for that.
12:00
Speaker 2: Right, So could needs be on devices all the time?
12:03
Speaker 3: Who could say? Who could say?
12:05
Speaker 4: So?
12:05
Speaker 1: Now, the universally acknowledged truth that we have all understood
12:09
Speaker 1: for millennia that men are on average, taller, stronger, better
12:14
Speaker 1: at sports than women, we have to discard that, and
12:17
Speaker 1: we have to claim we don't have enough studies to
12:19
Speaker 1: truly understand nuance here, which is what they were getting
12:23
Speaker 1: into on CNN where Scott Jennings is sparring with a
12:27
Speaker 1: with his colleague. This is a little over a minute,
12:31
Speaker 1: but I think the back and forth is worth hearing here.
12:33
Speaker 1: Science behind this hasn't been studied enough or talked about
12:37
Speaker 1: enough for us to make a real full opinion.
12:39
Speaker 3: I do agree girls sports are for girls.
12:41
Speaker 8: You said this hasn't been studied enough to know that. Look,
12:44
Speaker 8: we've got millions of years of study. Men and women
12:46
Speaker 8: are different, and that's why it's unfair to put boys
12:49
Speaker 8: in girls sports. We don't need it any more biological
12:51
Speaker 8: studies fundamentally. But do you.
12:53
Speaker 7: See, genuinely curious, any accommodations that are reasonable? You have
12:58
Speaker 7: a sixteen year old who want to participate in sports.
13:02
Speaker 7: In your mind, is there any way that that can happen?
13:05
Speaker 7: That is fair, of course, have.
13:07
Speaker 8: The people participate with their own biological sex, boys and
13:12
Speaker 8: boys sports, girls and girls sports. It's worked for a
13:14
Speaker 8: very long time in this country.
13:15
Speaker 4: But it's not.
13:16
Speaker 3: That's where we are.
13:18
Speaker 8: So what do you do the country?
13:20
Speaker 3: But it's not bad anymore? So what do you do
13:22
Speaker 3: with the twenty percent? Do we ignore them?
13:23
Speaker 8: Yeah?
13:24
Speaker 3: Pretty much, it's twenty issue everybody. We have to upend.
13:35
Speaker 3: We don't have to. The reason why.
13:38
Speaker 1: Was because I don't think it's fair that you're scaring
13:40
Speaker 1: people at home thinking that boys are trying to compete
13:43
Speaker 1: in girls for by the droves and that this is
13:46
Speaker 1: going to take over.
13:46
Speaker 3: And you were scaring people at all. It's just not happening.
13:52
Speaker 2: You know what this reminds me of. Actually, this reminds
13:55
Speaker 2: me of the Joe Biden cover up. It's like we
13:58
Speaker 2: all could see what's going on on, but the White
14:01
Speaker 2: House hasn't told anybody, So how could we know.
14:04
Speaker 3: How could we know? How could we make right?
14:06
Speaker 2: So unless they get more studies on this and unless
14:09
Speaker 2: the twenty percent. Now we're catering to the twenty percent
14:12
Speaker 2: of the country. Because I recall Obama when after he'd win,
14:16
Speaker 2: he'd be real happy about his majority and not care
14:20
Speaker 2: at all what the minority was saying about his policies.
14:24
Speaker 2: Didn't he say, now, yeah, now the twenty percent really
14:27
Speaker 2: matters well.
14:28
Speaker 1: And also you notice that every anchor and Brianna Keeler
14:31
Speaker 1: was interviewing Julie Hammill, who's done a lot of the
14:34
Speaker 1: representation of some of these young women and work on
14:37
Speaker 1: the legal side of this. She was interviewing her, and
14:40
Speaker 1: both anchors default to only the rights of this one person, right,
14:46
Speaker 1: like those don't have to be balanced at all. Apparently,
14:49
Speaker 1: according to them, it doesn't matter that this person is
14:52
Speaker 1: standing atop the Oh. Yeah, and by the way, he
14:57
Speaker 1: is welcome to compete in the men's category. Know what
15:00
Speaker 1: would happen. He wouldn't win. He wouldn't win in the
15:03
Speaker 1: men's category. So don't think it has quite the rush
15:07
Speaker 1: that it.
15:07
Speaker 3: Has to compete with women. By the way, because.
15:09
Speaker 2: Also, sorry, you don't see this in the reverse.
15:12
Speaker 3: You do not see.
15:13
Speaker 2: Biological girls dying to get into biological boy sports. You
15:17
Speaker 2: don't see you know, trans men, right, trans men trying
15:22
Speaker 2: to get into men's sports.
15:23
Speaker 3: You just don't see it. You know why, because they
15:24
Speaker 3: wouldn't win, right, because you end up being the worst player,
15:30
Speaker 3: like you're sitting on the pine.
15:33
Speaker 1: By the way, I just want to note that female
15:35
Speaker 1: athletes also lost to men in the end of season
15:39
Speaker 1: sort of championship part of the season in Maine, Oregon,
15:44
Speaker 1: and Washington and then California.
15:45
Speaker 3: Of course, is the one we are noting.
15:49
Speaker 1: As Julie Hammill points out, you have to follow Title
15:54
Speaker 1: nine like this isn't even a trump thing. Title nine
15:57
Speaker 1: has been the law for a long time. They twisted
16:00
Speaker 1: it during the Biden administration to cover men and women,
16:05
Speaker 1: which doesn't protect women at all. In Oregon, two girls
16:11
Speaker 1: who had to compete against a boy in the high
16:13
Speaker 1: jump refused to step on the podium. That was their protest.
16:17
Speaker 1: Good they were punished by a man. A male official
16:20
Speaker 1: comes over and tells them to leave, and they were
16:23
Speaker 1: sent to the sidelines because even their silent and appropriate
16:27
Speaker 1: and polite protest cannot be cannot be countenanced in the
16:32
Speaker 1: face of the rights of these young men who just
16:34
Speaker 1: desperately must beat them.
16:37
Speaker 3: Yeah must.
16:38
Speaker 2: Also we have the story of Algerian boxer who was
16:43
Speaker 2: obvious again to anybody who had eyes, that it was
16:48
Speaker 2: this boxer was a man. Was competing in the female category.
16:53
Speaker 2: There was this ongoing lie that he was intersex, which
16:58
Speaker 2: is really another galling thing about this. It's like, we
17:02
Speaker 2: can see, we know what we're looking at, Like, don't
17:05
Speaker 2: lie to us. And so there was a leak a
17:08
Speaker 2: few days ago where the Algerian boxer in mon Khalif
17:14
Speaker 2: this thing leaked that says that a blood test confirmed
17:19
Speaker 2: that he is in fact male.
17:22
Speaker 1: So this was a blood test administered by the International
17:25
Speaker 1: Boxing Association in twenty twenty three that had been rumored
17:30
Speaker 1: as this person was entering the Olympics, and everyone was saying,
17:33
Speaker 1: I think this guy's been flagged before and the Olympics
17:36
Speaker 1: because we've reached a point in our sort of international
17:40
Speaker 1: leftism that we must not determine whether a dude is
17:44
Speaker 1: a dude before he gets into a ring and beats
17:49
Speaker 1: a woman. Yeah, a medal is That's how far the
17:53
Speaker 1: Libs have gone, right, is that in order to be
17:56
Speaker 1: a good liberal you have to cheer and make fun
18:01
Speaker 1: of anyone who doesn't cheer the beating of a woman
18:04
Speaker 1: inside a boxing ring by a dude for a metal
18:10
Speaker 1: like this is crazy, right, And that.
18:13
Speaker 2: Is the thing I think that so many of them
18:15
Speaker 2: know that it's crazy I know we have again these
18:18
Speaker 2: eighty twenty numbers, but they're not loud enough about it.
18:22
Speaker 2: Where are the like the feminist organizations are just I
18:26
Speaker 2: know some feminists have taken some real risks. Jk Rowling
18:29
Speaker 2: has been at the forefront of this. I get that
18:31
Speaker 2: there are very outspoken feminists from the left talking about this,
18:35
Speaker 2: but in general they're all still so quiet, and they're
18:38
Speaker 2: not standing up for women, and they're not standing up
18:41
Speaker 2: for these girls, and they're allowing girls to be beat
18:43
Speaker 2: up by a man on a stage.
18:45
Speaker 3: How is that okay?
18:46
Speaker 4: No?
18:46
Speaker 1: And it goes beyond that, right. It is the shaming
18:49
Speaker 1: of the women who do stand up. Is it is
18:53
Speaker 1: making what's always made me most angry as a as
18:56
Speaker 1: a former somewhat mediocre female athlete myself, is that is
19:02
Speaker 1: that these women who are beaten by post pubescent males,
19:08
Speaker 1: they must stand up and cheer and talk to the
19:11
Speaker 1: press and tell the press how amazing, howwering it is
19:15
Speaker 1: to be beaten by a dude in their sport, or
19:18
Speaker 1: else they will be shunned and punished. And on this front,
19:21
Speaker 1: I think Jennifer Say Martina and Abergelomo jk Rowling have
19:25
Speaker 1: given a bunch of female athletes courage to stand up
19:29
Speaker 1: and say no. They wear the xxxy shirts, they stand
19:32
Speaker 1: on the podium, or they skip the podium entirely. They
19:35
Speaker 1: have forfeited their sports at times at great cost to themselves.
19:41
Speaker 1: So I think that's where the turn is happening with
19:43
Speaker 1: the normy athletes who are fed up with this, and
19:47
Speaker 1: elite liberalism has to get its mind wrapped around this
19:51
Speaker 1: if it expects to ever perform anywhere or be listened
19:55
Speaker 1: to anyone.
19:57
Speaker 2: And I see normy moms, enormy people in the XXXY shirts.
20:02
Speaker 2: I don't think they have a lot of political opinions,
20:05
Speaker 2: but I think keeping boys out of girls' sports is
20:09
Speaker 2: just one of those really gets to people, especially if
20:12
Speaker 2: they have daughters themselves who play in sports at any level.
20:16
Speaker 2: I think they understand that, you know, you can't have
20:18
Speaker 2: boys in this, and if you have, you know you
20:20
Speaker 2: and I both have daughters and sons. You see the
20:23
Speaker 2: physical difference between them. It just it's so obvious. It's
20:26
Speaker 2: if you have eyes, you can tell they are different.
20:29
Speaker 1: I mean, I so I played on boys' soccer teams
20:33
Speaker 1: for a little while because my district didn't have enough
20:35
Speaker 1: money to have a women's soccer team, and it was like,
20:37
Speaker 1: right at that age where it becomes probably dangerous, It
20:41
Speaker 1: was like twelve to fourteen, and I've managed, but like,
20:46
Speaker 1: in no world was that the proper situation for me?
20:50
Speaker 4: Right?
20:50
Speaker 6: That was?
20:51
Speaker 3: And if it had been one on one, I was
20:53
Speaker 3: part of a team. If it had been one on
20:55
Speaker 3: one competition with anyone else on the field, like it's
21:00
Speaker 3: done right.
21:01
Speaker 2: That's the other thing that the time of when they
21:04
Speaker 2: play together really matters. My nine year old son had
21:07
Speaker 2: some unbelievable flag football girls on various teams last season,
21:12
Speaker 2: Like unreal, they're they're they're taller, they're faster, they you know,
21:16
Speaker 2: girls hit puberty earlier faster, so at that age they
21:20
Speaker 2: could still be even better. But once you hit puberty,
21:23
Speaker 2: all bets are off and it's impossible to have fairness
21:27
Speaker 2: between boys and girls playing sports together.
21:29
Speaker 1: All those outstanding flag football gals are going to be
21:32
Speaker 1: just the kind of gals to grow up and get
21:34
Speaker 1: their butts beaten by young men pretending to be.
21:37
Speaker 2: Going Oh man, I hope we solve this for them
21:41
Speaker 2: before that happens. But yes, that's exactly where they're headed.
21:44
Speaker 3: I think we're on the way to solving it.
21:46
Speaker 1: I think there is a as an awakening and I
21:49
Speaker 1: just there was an update today from the DOJ. Its
21:52
Speaker 1: demands to California districts is that if you don't comply
21:56
Speaker 1: with Title nine and protect girls sports and spaces from
21:58
Speaker 1: male invasion, not all will you lose federal funds, but
22:01
Speaker 1: you are violating the equal Protection clause of the fourteenth
22:04
Speaker 1: mimics of the US Constitution. The DOJ demands districts certify compliance,
22:09
Speaker 1: and if you lie, you are defrauding the government and
22:11
Speaker 1: liable for False Claims Act violations. Things are going to
22:14
Speaker 1: get a little tricky for Gavin Newsom as he tries
22:18
Speaker 1: to walk this type rope and claim he's just a
22:22
Speaker 1: totally reasonable dude.
22:25
Speaker 3: You got to the rubber's going to hit the road.
22:26
Speaker 3: You've got to do something.
22:27
Speaker 2: Yep, there's a primary. He's going to have to get
22:29
Speaker 2: through a primary.
22:30
Speaker 3: So we'll see, good luck with that.
22:32
Speaker 2: We're going to take a short break and come right
22:34
Speaker 2: back with normally. Well, you know, we talk a lot
22:40
Speaker 2: about how Democrats are alienating men. It turns out they
22:45
Speaker 2: don't want to stop there. Why stop there? Michelle Obama
22:49
Speaker 2: had some choice things to say about women and what
22:53
Speaker 2: we are good for and what about us is important.
22:57
Speaker 4: So many men have no idea about what women go through. Right.
23:03
Speaker 4: We haven't been researched, we haven't been considered, and it
23:07
Speaker 4: still affects the way. A lot of male lawmakers, a
23:11
Speaker 4: lot of male politicians, a lot of male religious leaders
23:16
Speaker 4: think about the issue of choice as if it's just
23:19
Speaker 4: about the fetus, the baby, the But women's reproductive health
23:26
Speaker 4: is about our life. It's about this whole complicated reproductive
23:33
Speaker 4: system that does the least of what it does is
23:37
Speaker 4: produce life. It's a very important thing that it does.
23:40
Speaker 4: But you only produce life if the machine that's producing it.
23:45
Speaker 4: If you want to, you know, whittle us down to
23:47
Speaker 4: a machine, if the machine is functioning in a healthy,
23:51
Speaker 4: streamlined kind of way. But there's no discussion or apparent connection.
23:57
Speaker 2: What's the most important thing that a machine does? I
24:01
Speaker 2: just need to know if the least important thing is
24:04
Speaker 2: it produces life, because that seems kind of a big
24:06
Speaker 2: one to me.
24:08
Speaker 3: You know what else there is?
24:10
Speaker 1: I will say this, If the least important thing that
24:13
Speaker 1: my uterus is doing is creating life, then I wish
24:15
Speaker 1: it would quit bugging me every month with the other
24:17
Speaker 1: stuff that it does seriously not enough. We don't need
24:21
Speaker 1: to do that at all if it's not important. No,
24:25
Speaker 1: I think, look, Michelle Obama, I have a theory of
24:28
Speaker 1: Michelle Obama. By the way that podcast.
24:31
Speaker 2: Because the show is called normally, I know it's not
24:33
Speaker 2: the theory on Michelle Obama.
24:35
Speaker 1: So no, I have a theory that she is doing
24:39
Speaker 1: this podcast to get rid of the idea from anybody's
24:44
Speaker 1: brain that she can ever run for office.
24:46
Speaker 2: It worked, it really worked.
24:48
Speaker 3: I was like, this woman.
24:49
Speaker 2: Cannot actually run for office.
24:51
Speaker 3: Look, there are times when she is incredible. She gave
24:54
Speaker 3: a great speech at the DNC.
24:55
Speaker 1: You look at her and you're like, this, she has
24:57
Speaker 1: one hundred percent name i'd people seem to love her.
25:00
Speaker 3: You know, there's tons to tons going for her.
25:02
Speaker 1: Then she's like, I'm gonna do a podcast and I'm
25:04
Speaker 1: gonna say all the things.
25:06
Speaker 3: That will make it impossible for me to run for office.
25:08
Speaker 1: So I think that's her plan, because I don't think
25:10
Speaker 1: she ever wanted to run for office, right, So she's
25:12
Speaker 1: just like, now I'm gonna make myself toxic.
25:13
Speaker 3: But this is such a wild thing to say. She's correct.
25:17
Speaker 3: Men often don't understand much of what she goes on.
25:20
Speaker 3: This is a fair critic reed.
25:21
Speaker 1: Yeah, but the idea that you're that your reproductive system's
25:27
Speaker 1: least important function is creating life, when that's like the grandest,
25:32
Speaker 1: most amazing, most miraculous, most differentiating thing about being a
25:38
Speaker 1: woman that you can do, is so dismissive and crazy to.
25:43
Speaker 2: Me, right, And I just it's her and also Hillary Clinton.
25:49
Speaker 2: I just I don't get why it's okay for first
25:53
Speaker 2: ladies to kind of lecture us in this way, Like
25:57
Speaker 2: I long for the bar Bush the Laura Bushes, who
26:02
Speaker 2: just like they do what they do, and they don't
26:05
Speaker 2: they don't tell us how to be. I wrote about
26:07
Speaker 2: Hillary Clinton recently for Fox News. Nothing she likes more
26:11
Speaker 2: than popping her head up to tell us how women
26:13
Speaker 2: are and behaving the way she would like, and how
26:14
Speaker 2: we've been a massive disappointment to her, to Hillary Clinton, particularly,
26:19
Speaker 2: so you know, she had she had it again recently.
26:21
Speaker 2: But she's always talking about how women vote, the way
26:24
Speaker 2: that their husbands make them vote and the way that
26:26
Speaker 2: they want them to and they cater to the men
26:28
Speaker 2: in their lives and all that. Why why just go
26:31
Speaker 2: enjoy your retirement. You don't need the money you don't
26:34
Speaker 2: need the fame, go sail off into the sunset. I
26:38
Speaker 2: assure you that was what I would be doing if
26:41
Speaker 2: I were them.
26:41
Speaker 3: I know.
26:42
Speaker 1: This is why we're normal, though they're not normal. She
26:46
Speaker 1: That was part of Michelle Obama's take as well, the
26:49
Speaker 1: Republican women suggesting, of course, that they voted for Donald
26:52
Speaker 1: Trump because.
26:52
Speaker 3: Of their husbands.
26:53
Speaker 1: Quote, there are a lot of men who have big
26:55
Speaker 1: chairs at their tables. There are a lot of women
26:57
Speaker 1: who vote the way their man is going to vote.
27:00
Speaker 1: Happened in this election.
27:02
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, my husband's like, who are we voting for? Right,
27:06
Speaker 2: not not for president, but like, you know, any of
27:08
Speaker 2: the local stuff. He's just like, I don't know where.
27:10
Speaker 3: What am I doing? What do we do now?
27:12
Speaker 1: I would say it often probably goes the other direction.
27:16
Speaker 1: And it's just such a again, dismissive, condescending.
27:22
Speaker 3: It doesn't acknowledge unnecessary that what.
27:25
Speaker 1: Democrats do and what liberals do is that they don't
27:28
Speaker 1: go looking for the constituency to convince them. They go
27:32
Speaker 1: looking for a constituency to lecture and change them.
27:35
Speaker 3: So it just doesn't work. It's not going to work.
27:39
Speaker 1: And actually we have a new clip of Harry Hinton,
27:41
Speaker 1: the smart I said that real Southern Harry Hinton, Harry
27:45
Speaker 1: and the smart numbers guy over at CNN who was
27:49
Speaker 1: going through a few more numbers on Trump that I
27:52
Speaker 1: think are going to be problematic for Democrats as we
27:55
Speaker 1: move forward.
27:55
Speaker 5: After all of the waves, Capball, when after the last
27:58
Speaker 5: few months, the first five to the Donald Trump presidency,
28:01
Speaker 5: right of the first four months to the Donald Trump presidency,
28:03
Speaker 5: that you expect that Democrats are have this massive lead
28:06
Speaker 5: on the economy.
28:07
Speaker 6: It ain't so.
28:08
Speaker 5: It ain't so the party that is closest to your
28:10
Speaker 5: economic views. And November of twenty twenty three, it was
28:12
Speaker 5: the Republicans by eleven points. Now it's still within that range,
28:16
Speaker 5: still within that margin of our plus eight point advantage
28:19
Speaker 5: for the Republican Party.
28:20
Speaker 6: How is that possible? Democrats? How is that possible after
28:23
Speaker 6: all the recession, Because after the stock market's been doing
28:26
Speaker 6: all of this, after all the towers that Americans are against,
28:29
Speaker 6: and Republicans still hold an eight point lead on the economy,
28:32
Speaker 6: Are you kidding me?
28:33
Speaker 5: Well?
28:34
Speaker 2: I like the way he says all. It reminds me
28:36
Speaker 2: of my Brooklyn childhood.
28:40
Speaker 3: Not a mystery figure it out either.
28:42
Speaker 2: Yeah, but most Americans are not in the stock market.
28:45
Speaker 2: The price of eggs is way down. It's little things
28:48
Speaker 2: that have gotten better. It could all go to you know,
28:52
Speaker 2: crapper and at any moment, we really don't know. The
28:55
Speaker 2: economy is really in flux, and obviously we're hoping things
28:59
Speaker 2: stay positive.
29:02
Speaker 3: But it's no great mystery.
29:04
Speaker 2: Why Americans trust the Trump administration or Republicans in general
29:09
Speaker 2: over Democrats. Democrats are always involved in some other issue
29:13
Speaker 2: and dismissing the needs of Americans and mocking them for
29:17
Speaker 2: their caring about egg prices and things like that. So
29:21
Speaker 2: no great mystery to me what's going on here.
29:24
Speaker 3: I don't think they're going to figure out anytime soon.
29:26
Speaker 2: No, they still haven't gotten to boys and girls' sports.
29:30
Speaker 3: I don't think.
29:31
Speaker 2: I don't think they're going to be tackling the economy
29:33
Speaker 2: anytime too soon. Thanks for joining us on normally. Normally
