Transcript
- 0:04Speaker 1: You know, not usually one that's lost for words, as
- 0:07Speaker 1: you can probably tell by now if you know me.
- 0:10Speaker 1: But there are some times where I try to just
- 0:12Speaker 1: sit back and try to observe, like what's going on
- 0:14Speaker 1: now just in our culture, society, among people, what's happening
- 0:18Speaker 1: right what's going on not just news, is what's going
- 0:20Speaker 1: on in your world and what's coming at you. This
- 0:23Speaker 1: is a stunningly amazing time and what's going on, I
- 0:28Speaker 1: mean honestly, and I know it's a little bit heavy
- 0:30Speaker 1: and it's probably like a little bit corny as well.
- 0:32Speaker 1: What we're witnessing right now, what we're feeling right now
- 0:35Speaker 1: is this giant, massive, massive mindset change that's going on
- 0:40Speaker 1: like all at once, where it's just to put it simply,
- 0:44Speaker 1: just people are tired of the lunacy and it's all
- 0:47Speaker 1: coming out right now. And I think like the the
- 0:51Speaker 1: end result of that was, like what you saw yesterday,
- 0:53Speaker 1: that it doesn't matter who you voted for, it doesn't
- 0:56Speaker 1: matter what side of whatever you're on, what political but
- 0:59Speaker 1: who the hell cares that picture in that image of
- 1:03Speaker 1: your president signing a bill ending males competing in girls' sports,
- 1:09Speaker 1: that's one of the most iconic things that's ever happened
- 1:12Speaker 1: in American history for a number of reasons. First of all,
- 1:15Speaker 1: just the imagery of it, and then the girls gathered around.
- 1:17Speaker 1: That's where Trump is so good. He's really just good
- 1:20Speaker 1: at that. We're invited him around, you know, and he's
- 1:22Speaker 1: doing his thing. This is a big signature because this
- 1:24Speaker 1: is historic, you know, being Trump, But just the fact
- 1:28Speaker 1: that we lived through an era. Stop and think about
- 1:30Speaker 1: this for a second, because we're so used to like
- 1:32Speaker 1: the craziness. We lived through an era where biological males
- 1:38Speaker 1: were allowed to compete in girl sports. It's just we're
- 1:41Speaker 1: gonna look back at this and say, what the hell
- 1:43Speaker 1: were humans thinking? And then we had to actually get
- 1:45Speaker 1: to a point where the biggest news story in the
- 1:48Speaker 1: country yesterday for a time was the President having to
- 1:51Speaker 1: sign an executive order to stop that from happening. This
- 1:54Speaker 1: is an amazing time. And it all happened because collectively
- 1:58Speaker 1: people said, yeah, we're kind of done with this. I
- 2:02Speaker 1: think we're done with that. We'll talk about the big
- 2:04Speaker 1: win for girly sports as well as and I wanted
- 2:06Speaker 1: to kind of I know there's been a lot about
- 2:07Speaker 1: DOGE and USAID and all the fraud and wasteful government spending,
- 2:11Speaker 1: and towards the end of this week, today and tomorrow,
- 2:13Speaker 1: heading into super Bowl weekend, I wanted to kind of
- 2:15Speaker 1: tail off that, but there's something I have to share
- 2:18Speaker 1: with you coming up here. You will not believe. And
- 2:20Speaker 1: I know it's been a lot. I get that, and
- 2:22Speaker 1: it's a lot to digest because they're finding so much.
- 2:24Speaker 1: You will not believe some of the salaries your tax
- 2:28Speaker 1: dollars have been funding. It's just incredible, not just the salaries,
- 2:32Speaker 1: but the titles that a lot of these government employees
- 2:35Speaker 1: have had that doge dug up. They're not employed anymore.
- 2:39Speaker 1: I mean, those positions were eliminated, but it's absolutely incredible.
- 2:42Speaker 1: Something else is happening here where patriotism is breaking out bigly.
- 2:47Speaker 1: As Trump would like to say, at the super Bowl.
- 2:50Speaker 1: Players have a completely different approach now to how things
- 2:56Speaker 1: are going, and they're speaking out. It's really amazing. And
- 2:58Speaker 1: it's a nice little super Bowl prep heading into tomorrow
- 3:00Speaker 1: and the weekend and all that good stuff. But let's
- 3:02Speaker 1: get to it, and thanks for being here. I appreciate
- 3:04Speaker 1: you so much. With that long winded intro, thanks to
- 3:06Speaker 1: find a Wicked Radio as well as the audio podcast,
- 3:10Speaker 1: and if you only listen to the audio podcast, appreciate
- 3:12Speaker 1: you and the five stars and downloads and shares and
- 3:14Speaker 1: all that crap wherever you prefer to get your audio podcast.
- 3:18Speaker 1: And then of course this is always a replay right
- 3:20Speaker 1: here on next. Thanks for the follows to notifications on
- 3:22Speaker 1: and all that good stuff as well. Little programming though tomorrow,
- 3:25Speaker 1: heading into Super Bowl weekend, I'm only talking about the
- 3:28Speaker 1: super Bowl. That's it. And you're thinking, I don't care
- 3:32Speaker 1: about that. You don't talk about sports, what the hell
- 3:34Speaker 1: do you know? True, But whether or not you like
- 3:38Speaker 1: football or have any interest whatsoever in the super Bowl,
- 3:41Speaker 1: this is undeniable. It is a massive, massive cultural thing.
- 3:46Speaker 1: The super Bowl is Americana. It is the biggest sporting event,
- 3:50Speaker 1: biggest spectacle in the world, and it is it is
- 3:54Speaker 1: a huge part of our culture. And there are a
- 3:56Speaker 1: lot of different angles tomorrow to talk about. So Tomorrow'm
- 3:58Speaker 1: going to put together a Super Bowl special for you.
- 4:00Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about not just not x's and o's
- 4:03Speaker 1: you just see everything else going on, and some fun
- 4:05Speaker 1: prop bets too, But let's get right to it. Well
- 4:07Speaker 1: you heard it, you saw it, because.
- 4:09Speaker 2: With this executive order, the war on women's sports is over.
- 4:16Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know how you put it any
- 4:17Speaker 1: simpler than that. And again, I'll say it again, if
- 4:19Speaker 1: you didn't see this iconic still shot photo, I don't
- 4:21Speaker 1: know what the Trump Presidential Library someday is going to
- 4:26Speaker 1: be like. It'll probably be in Florida. Actually, I don't
- 4:28Speaker 1: know what it's gonna look like. I imagine it's gonna
- 4:30Speaker 1: look like a sports bar, because he loves to collect
- 4:32Speaker 1: the sports memorabilia stuff. But that picture, that iconic photo
- 4:35Speaker 1: of him surrounded by all the female athletes as he's
- 4:38Speaker 1: signing the thing, is he invented about that? Come on on, everybody,
- 4:41Speaker 1: come on, come on. It's unbelievable. Nobody said it could
- 4:43Speaker 1: be done. I got it done for you. It's an
- 4:46Speaker 1: iconic photo. And that's where he's really really good at
- 4:49Speaker 1: imagery and persuasion, obviously, but it's an incredible, incredible thing.
- 4:52Speaker 1: And again, I'm just blown away that it took this
- 4:56Speaker 1: to stop this lunacy. But he did. He campaigned on
- 5:00Speaker 1: and there are a lot of people and he called
- 5:02Speaker 1: them out, specifically Riley Gains. I think Sage Steel was
- 5:04Speaker 1: another one. There were a lot of leaders that came
- 5:08Speaker 1: out through this to protect women's sports. But collectively, like
- 5:12Speaker 1: I said in the intro, it was all of us.
- 5:15Speaker 1: It was just you know, that is an actual real thing,
- 5:18Speaker 1: the collective consciousness of a society and a culture in
- 5:21Speaker 1: a nation where people just stood up and they just
- 5:23Speaker 1: said enough. And obviously it was the economy, obviously was
- 5:26Speaker 1: the border that put him back in the White House,
- 5:29Speaker 1: all of those big issues. Don't discount this kind of
- 5:32Speaker 1: stuff though, as anything less than that, because people saw
- 5:36Speaker 1: what was happening. You saw all the news stories, You
- 5:38Speaker 1: saw all of the abuses that were happening to girls
- 5:43Speaker 1: in sports and scholarships taken away, there were injuries happening.
- 5:47Speaker 1: It was just just the fact that that was allowed,
- 5:49Speaker 1: that biological males were allowed to compete against them was insane,
- 5:54Speaker 1: and collectively America said no, we're just not doing it.
- 5:56Speaker 1: And the end result was this. Now, it's a huge
- 6:00Speaker 1: win if you're a parent of a girl in sports.
- 6:02Speaker 1: I got kind of close to this because I have
- 6:04Speaker 1: two girls myself. They certainly weren't in sports. They're more like,
- 6:07Speaker 1: you know, art and music and that that end of things, right,
- 6:11Speaker 1: But what a major win if you've got a young
- 6:13Speaker 1: girl competing in sports and trying to get a scholarship
- 6:15Speaker 1: that you know, it's not going to be taken away.
- 6:17Speaker 1: And there were countless of examples of that happening. Female
- 6:20Speaker 1: wrestlers losing out too. I'm gonna call them boys men
- 6:25Speaker 1: for scholarships. We know the Riley Gaines story. She was
- 6:27Speaker 1: the female swimmer in college who had to compete against
- 6:31Speaker 1: a biological male that lapped her in the pool. You know,
- 6:36Speaker 1: it took wins away, right And now, by the way,
- 6:39Speaker 1: some of those female swimmers, now that they have this
- 6:41Speaker 1: by their side, they're going to sue to get a
- 6:43Speaker 1: lot of those metals taken away from male athletes that
- 6:45Speaker 1: took it from them. And it took this, It just did.
- 6:49Speaker 1: And I asked this, I've asked this question back in
- 6:51Speaker 1: radio days and right here so many times. Where were
- 6:55Speaker 1: where were these uh, feminist athletes that actually did a
- 6:59Speaker 1: great job, the Billy Jean Kings of the world, Martina
- 7:02Speaker 1: Nevertilova or who think of any of them, you can,
- 7:04Speaker 1: where were they throughout this whole fight? Why did it
- 7:08Speaker 1: take the current athletes to do it? You know, they
- 7:10Speaker 1: fought for jeez, I don't know. Was it forty years
- 7:12Speaker 1: to get title nine, to get fairness in women's sports.
- 7:15Speaker 1: They fought really hard for that to get it done,
- 7:17Speaker 1: and there was a great fight and they did win.
- 7:18Speaker 1: Until this happened. Were they so afraid of the transgender
- 7:23Speaker 1: movement that they didn't stand up for these women? Why
- 7:25Speaker 1: did it take this to happen. It never should have
- 7:27Speaker 1: even gotten to this point. But the bottom line is
- 7:30Speaker 1: it did. And I gotta tell you, no matter what
- 7:32Speaker 1: happens in the future, I don't think we're going back,
- 7:34Speaker 1: because he did talk about the future. Let's not forget
- 7:36Speaker 1: about what's coming up in twenty twenty six in Los Angeles.
- 7:39Speaker 1: Guess what we're hosting.
- 7:40Speaker 2: In Los Angeles in twenty twenty eight. My administration will
- 7:43Speaker 2: not stand by and watch men beat and batter female athletes.
- 7:48Speaker 2: And we're just not gonna let it happen. And it's
- 7:51Speaker 2: gonna end, and it ending right now, and nobody's going
- 7:54Speaker 2: to be able to do a damn thing about it,
- 7:56Speaker 2: because when I speak, we speak with authority.
- 8:00Speaker 1: Again. He says it in his own Trumpian kind of
- 8:04Speaker 1: way that only he can put it that way. They're
- 8:05Speaker 1: gonna beaten better women anymore, But he says it in
- 8:08Speaker 1: a way where that took you right back to that
- 8:10Speaker 1: Olympics thing where a dude boxer was beaten up the
- 8:13Speaker 1: female athletes, remember that. Yeah, no more. And that's interesting
- 8:17Speaker 1: because that's our executive decision. The rest of the world,
- 8:20Speaker 1: they're still completely fine with males competing against women. So
- 8:24Speaker 1: it's gonna be interesting to see if the rest of
- 8:26Speaker 1: the world follows this lead. It'll be really interesting. I'm
- 8:28Speaker 1: glad he brought up the Olympics because that's gonna be
- 8:30Speaker 1: a big fight. It won't allow it here. It's not
- 8:32Speaker 1: gonna happen, so I don't know, we'll see amazing. Good
- 8:35Speaker 1: for you, Good for female athletes to champion this cause.
- 8:38Speaker 1: Congratulations to you, and congratulations to you. If you've got
- 8:42Speaker 1: you know, kids who are female athletes. Good for you.
- 8:44Speaker 1: This is you should be celebrating today. I think it's fantastic,
- 8:47Speaker 1: all right. Like I said, I know it's been a lot.
- 8:50Speaker 1: My goal was to kind of ramp down on the
- 8:52Speaker 1: USAID stories and the DEI stuff and everything they're digging up,
- 8:55Speaker 1: which is great that they're uncovering all the fraud and corruption.
- 8:58Speaker 1: I get it, but and I didn't want to talk
- 9:00Speaker 1: about that today or tomorrow, and closer to the weekend.
- 9:02Speaker 1: But I have to bring this up. You're not gonna
- 9:05Speaker 1: believe this in two different ways, and I'll make it quick.
- 9:08Speaker 1: But it's incredible. So among the news released yesterday of
- 9:12Speaker 1: the stuff that you that Doge has found is really incredible.
- 9:17Speaker 1: If all this time you've thought, well, we've all known, right,
- 9:21Speaker 1: we've all known that legacy media outlets are not only biased,
- 9:26Speaker 1: but it's a lot more than that that they, you know,
- 9:28Speaker 1: went into full attack mode and they worked hand in
- 9:30Speaker 1: hand and we're taking orders from the Democrats. Everybody's known
- 9:33Speaker 1: that it's common sense. Well, now you got a paper trail.
- 9:36Speaker 1: So as it turns out, let me get to the
- 9:39Speaker 1: story here. And this was widely reported. You may or
- 9:42Speaker 1: may not know about the Politico outlet, left wing based
- 9:48Speaker 1: political outlet that has done a lot of attack stories
- 9:51Speaker 1: on Trump obviously, but a lot of other Republicans and
- 9:54Speaker 1: a lot of other Republicans running for office. And I
- 9:57Speaker 1: really just i'd say conservatives, I guess, and they were
- 9:59Speaker 1: big on January sixth thing and going after them. No,
- 10:03Speaker 1: here's the news story. No employees that Politico got paid yesterday,
- 10:07Speaker 1: first time ever the company missed a pay period. Why
- 10:12Speaker 1: would that be? Why? How would that happen? Oh? Maybe
- 10:16Speaker 1: some funding dried up. Hmmm, Because what we learned was Politico,
- 10:20Speaker 1: which is supposedly unbiased news company which talks about politics
- 10:24Speaker 1: a lot, spent the last not year, not five years,
- 10:29Speaker 1: ten years going after MAGA and guess who funded it?
- 10:35Speaker 1: This is why, that's why I had to bring it up. Yeah,
- 10:38Speaker 1: USAID was funding Politico and others. They just also started
- 10:44Speaker 1: to scratch the surface on Reuiters, that big supposedly respected
- 10:49Speaker 1: news organization, right, the collector of news stories that feeded
- 10:52Speaker 1: out of the two other news outlets, right and others?
- 10:55Speaker 1: How many others were getting funded? Here your tax dollars
- 10:59Speaker 1: funding news outlets news I use in finger quotes to
- 11:05Speaker 1: attack a certain ideology. This came up in a discussion
- 11:09Speaker 1: in the White House press room yesterday. You'll hear the
- 11:11Speaker 1: beginning part of the question. Then Caroline Levitt confirmed exactly
- 11:14Speaker 1: what I'm saying here, Politico was getting paid full slide.
- 11:21Speaker 2: There a couple media outlets that have been dragged into
- 11:24Speaker 2: this conversation as far as the USAID funding as well.
- 11:28Speaker 1: Does the President have any.
- 11:29Speaker 3: Comment on that?
- 11:30Speaker 1: Listen to this.
- 11:30Speaker 4: So, upon coming out here to the briefing room. I
- 11:34Speaker 4: was made aware of the funding from USAID to media outlets,
- 11:39Speaker 4: including Politico, who I know has a seat in this room,
- 11:42Speaker 4: and I can confirm that the more than eight million
- 11:45Speaker 4: taxpayer dollars that have gone to essentially subsidizing subscriptions to Politico,
- 11:50Speaker 4: the American taxpayer's dying will no longer be happening. The
- 11:53Speaker 4: Doge team is working on canceling those payments now eight million.
- 11:59Speaker 1: So a lot of people try to immunity note this. Well,
- 12:00Speaker 1: they weren't paying them directly, they said no, but that's
- 12:02Speaker 1: how they subsidized it. So USAID was buying a bunch
- 12:05Speaker 1: of subscriptions to Politico to keep it going to the
- 12:08Speaker 1: tune of eight million dollars. They found in the line
- 12:11Speaker 1: by line code. That's what was going on. They were
- 12:13Speaker 1: paying Politico and others. By the way, how she called
- 12:16Speaker 1: it out right there? How did you like to be
- 12:18Speaker 1: the political reporter in the White House press room when
- 12:20Speaker 1: this is being discussed by the White House? It's oh,
- 12:25Speaker 1: my card, So now you have so we've always known, right,
- 12:28Speaker 1: we've always known about biased supposed news organizations. Now you
- 12:32Speaker 1: know who was paying them and how it happened with
- 12:34Speaker 1: your money. Were always said, it's going to be tough
- 12:39Speaker 1: because we're ripping band aids off and it's going to
- 12:40Speaker 1: hurt it first, but at the end it's all going
- 12:42Speaker 1: to be cool because you get to the truth and
- 12:44Speaker 1: you can fix things. Well, that's all happening right now. Now.
- 12:48Speaker 1: Let me ask you this. You think it stops here,
- 12:51Speaker 1: I'm not good at predictions, that's not my thing. But
- 12:54Speaker 1: I'll make a prediction right now, and if it comes true,
- 12:56Speaker 1: remember who told you? Who brought it up for the
- 12:58Speaker 1: first time you heard it. So for years, a lot
- 13:01Speaker 1: of us have questioned how CNN is still in business.
- 13:03Speaker 1: They've been hemorrhaging ratings like bad, like HGTV beats them
- 13:07Speaker 1: a lot, like really bad, which means advertising revenue is down.
- 13:11Speaker 1: Everybody has wondered how CNN, for just an example, has
- 13:15Speaker 1: stayed in business for so many years with that happening.
- 13:18Speaker 1: A lot of the speculation was maybe they're getting like
- 13:20Speaker 1: direct payments from China or whatever it is to you
- 13:23Speaker 1: have you know, counter programming and disinformation to try to
- 13:26Speaker 1: take down the MAGA movement. What if we find out
- 13:29Speaker 1: organizations like that have been getting USAID money? Is it
- 13:33Speaker 1: so far fetched?
- 13:34Speaker 2: Now?
- 13:34Speaker 1: That we know Politico oh, by the way, which the
- 13:36Speaker 1: Politico investors own Business Insider as well, So maybe that's
- 13:40Speaker 1: directly related. Would it surprise you?
- 13:43Speaker 2: Oh?
- 13:43Speaker 1: By the way? Yeah? How about how about NPR? How
- 13:48Speaker 1: about the Public Broadcasting System PBS. Your tax dollar dollars,
- 13:53Speaker 1: all of those numbers funding that organization. You want to
- 13:56Speaker 1: keep that going. Got a new FCC director who wants
- 13:59Speaker 1: to defund them, and it's high time we do it.
- 14:01Speaker 1: You can't have you can't have public money, our money
- 14:04Speaker 1: going to fund these propaganda organizations if they're not just
- 14:07Speaker 1: going to report straight news. Can't have it. That's all ending.
- 14:10Speaker 1: And it's a great thing, like ripping off the band
- 14:12Speaker 1: aid now, but it's all going to be great in
- 14:14Speaker 1: the end. It's unbelievable, all right. I know you're getting
- 14:17Speaker 1: tired of the Usaid stuff and the DOGE and the
- 14:20Speaker 1: political stuff. I get it. But I saw this yesterday
- 14:23Speaker 1: and I have to share this with you, and then
- 14:25Speaker 1: we'll get it. We'll get off we'll get off the
- 14:27Speaker 1: dose stuff in a second. But you're not going to
- 14:29Speaker 1: believe this. This is the most incredible thing. It's not
- 14:32Speaker 1: surprising that a website is now out keeping track of
- 14:35Speaker 1: all this stuff, but DEI watch list dot Com is
- 14:41Speaker 1: something worth checking out. As they exposed all this stuff, right,
- 14:44Speaker 1: your taxpayer funded DEI salaries in government jobs. That's basically
- 14:51Speaker 1: what it is. So when it gets revealed by the
- 14:53Speaker 1: Doge team, this watch list organization gets it and they
- 14:56Speaker 1: publish it on this new website and you want to
- 14:58Speaker 1: check it out. It's it's something DEI watch list dot com.
- 15:04Speaker 1: This is what they found yesterday, and then the other
- 15:06Speaker 1: media outlets found this stuff. You have to listen to
- 15:08Speaker 1: some of these jobs. These are not jobs anymore, but
- 15:11Speaker 1: they were, and these were the people. Listen to some
- 15:13Speaker 1: of these the best ones coming up. Uh Yuna August.
- 15:17Speaker 1: You know what Una did, the Deputy Associate Director of Science,
- 15:21Speaker 1: Office of Health Equity for the Centers for Disease Control
- 15:25Speaker 1: and Prevention. She was pulling down one hundred and fifty
- 15:28Speaker 1: one thousand of your tax dollars. I don't even really
- 15:33Speaker 1: know how to define what health equity is. And why
- 15:36Speaker 1: does the CDC get involved with health equity? I don't know. Well,
- 15:39Speaker 1: that's one thing I guess you can kind of kind
- 15:41Speaker 1: of justify that one. But let's talk about Chastity Walker.
- 15:45Speaker 1: She was Deputy Country Director at the CDC. Still an
- 15:49Speaker 1: undefinable job. Nobody knows what it is making one hundred
- 15:52Speaker 1: and sixty one thousand or was. How about this guy,
- 15:56Speaker 1: John Balbos, listen to his job. This is what you
- 15:59Speaker 1: were funding director of the Office of Climate Change and
- 16:05Speaker 1: Health Equity. There's that health equity again at the Department
- 16:08Speaker 1: of Health and Human Services. Climate change at Health and
- 16:14Speaker 1: Human Services almost just under two hundred thousand a year
- 16:18Speaker 1: of your tax dollars HHS climate Change. Okay, all right?
- 16:25Speaker 1: Sean Trees Holman, she was a strategist at the Office
- 16:29Speaker 1: of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion at the National Institutes of Health.
- 16:33Speaker 1: No salary on her, but that's a hell of a title.
- 16:35Speaker 1: You hear this stuff, and you know what, it's like,
- 16:38Speaker 1: I kind of feel foolish that we didn't know about
- 16:40Speaker 1: this before, and part of me's kind of jealous. What
- 16:43Speaker 1: great gigs these people found. Huh, just amazing. It's like,
- 16:46Speaker 1: don't you doesn't that small party say, why didn't I
- 16:49Speaker 1: get in on this grift?
- 16:50Speaker 3: Man?
- 16:50Speaker 1: How did I miss out on this? Let's see. Brian King,
- 16:54Speaker 1: director at the Center for Tobacco Products at the Food
- 16:56Speaker 1: and Drug Administration. He was making two seventy five. But
- 17:00Speaker 1: here's the al timer. Are you ready? This is my favorite?
- 17:03Speaker 1: This is why I even bring it up. This is
- 17:04Speaker 1: the one that had me laughing out loud yesterday when
- 17:06Speaker 1: I found it. Jiatza Blackwell, this is her title, and
- 17:11Speaker 1: it's got an acronym Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Accessibility and Belonging.
- 17:22Speaker 1: That's the DEIAB Diversity Equity, Inclusion, Accessibility and Belonging Officer
- 17:30Speaker 1: at the CDC. How much does that job get you?
- 17:33Speaker 1: One hundred and twenty eight two hundred and seventy five
- 17:36Speaker 1: dollars of your tax dollars every single year the DEIAB
- 17:40Speaker 1: And I will guarantee I don't know this for a fact.
- 17:43Speaker 1: I can't confirm it, but I would bet a lot
- 17:45Speaker 1: of money. I'd bet the amount of her salary that
- 17:48Speaker 1: she was doing all of that from home. Wasteful spending. Yeah,
- 17:54Speaker 1: I'd say, so. It's well, it is what it is.
- 17:57Speaker 1: But they're finding it all out now unbelievable. This is
- 18:00Speaker 1: something that to get off that for a second. This
- 18:02Speaker 1: is something interesting here. I don't have any audio to
- 18:04Speaker 1: prove it, but there was an interesting post on X
- 18:06Speaker 1: last night that is going gangbusters because it's coming from
- 18:10Speaker 1: first of all, Laura Trump. Nice lady, and she's got
- 18:13Speaker 1: a show on Fox. By the way, congratulations. So she
- 18:16Speaker 1: posts this like ten hours ago, just happened on my
- 18:19Speaker 1: Jet Blue flight pilot. Sorry, folks, just a little bumpy
- 18:24Speaker 1: as we fly over the Gulf of America. Are Jet
- 18:28Speaker 1: Blue pilots not afraid to speak out and be patriotic anymore?
- 18:33Speaker 1: Probably so, cause listen to the response to the post
- 18:36Speaker 1: from Lara Trump from huh Jet Blue. They respond to
- 18:41Speaker 1: her and comment, we hope you enjoyed your flight. Pretty
- 18:46Speaker 1: damn interesting, isn't it pretty damn interesting? I don't have
- 18:49Speaker 1: any video proof of that yet, but it bitch, it's
- 18:51Speaker 1: actually true. If they were able to confirm it. It
- 18:54Speaker 1: seems as though being proud to say America is breaking
- 18:59Speaker 1: out all over the country seems that way anyway, including
- 19:02Speaker 1: at the super Bowl. We're gonna talk a lot about
- 19:05Speaker 1: this tomorrow, like I promised. But this was really interesting.
- 19:08Speaker 1: Listen to some of the comments. So they had, you know,
- 19:10Speaker 1: they always have like media Day or whatever they call
- 19:11Speaker 1: it now, and he asked the players sitting there at
- 19:15Speaker 1: a booth at a lot of different questions. So the
- 19:17Speaker 1: news came out. Trump came out, and he announced that
- 19:19Speaker 1: he's going to be at the super Bowl. I think
- 19:21Speaker 1: it's the first sitting president. It's gonna sit for the
- 19:23Speaker 1: whole game or whatever. He loves football. It's a big
- 19:25Speaker 1: fan of Patrick Mahomes, and he had nice things to
- 19:27Speaker 1: say about him, because that guy's a real winner. Reminds
- 19:31Speaker 1: me in my college playing days. He didn't really say that.
- 19:33Speaker 1: I made that up, but Mahomes got a hold of
- 19:35Speaker 1: this and I thought he had a good, you know,
- 19:39Speaker 1: good honorable response to what he said. Here's Patrick Mahomes
- 19:42Speaker 1: responding to it. Yeah.
- 19:43Speaker 3: I mean, it's always cool to be able to play
- 19:47Speaker 3: in front of a sitting president, someone that is at
- 19:51Speaker 3: the top position in our country. And so I didn't
- 19:53Speaker 3: see that clip, but obviously it's cool to hear that
- 19:57Speaker 3: he's seen me play football and respects to the game
- 20:00Speaker 3: that I play.
- 20:00Speaker 1: It cool, all right, Good, it's a good statement. That's good.
- 20:03Speaker 1: You know, I think he would have made that anyway.
- 20:04Speaker 1: I think, you know, he's a respectful guy. He's very
- 20:06Speaker 1: good at the media. He said the right thing, and
- 20:08Speaker 1: he's you know, all right, God, he's like, he's it's cool.
- 20:10Speaker 1: It's nice to be honored by the president. Very cool.
- 20:12Speaker 1: Here's the surprising statement. Did you hear this straighter from
- 20:14Speaker 1: Travis Kelcey yesterday though? When he found out that Trump
- 20:19Speaker 1: is going to be at the game? Well, listen to
- 20:21Speaker 1: his response. But it's a great honor. I think, you know,
- 20:25Speaker 1: no matter who the president is, I know, I'm excited.
- 20:29Speaker 4: He says, it's the biggest game of my life, you know,
- 20:32Speaker 4: and having the lass it's the best country in the world.
- 20:37Speaker 1: I think that's awesome. What he said was, it's an honor.
- 20:39Speaker 1: Is the greatest country in the world. Now, let me
- 20:41Speaker 1: ask you this. That's Travis Kelcey. We know who he's
- 20:44Speaker 1: attached to at the hip, Taylor Swift. Trump has not
- 20:48Speaker 1: exactly been the biggest fan of Taylor Swift, and Travis
- 20:52Speaker 1: is media savvy enough to know that he's very in tune.
- 20:55Speaker 1: I can confirm this in my house. He's very in
- 20:57Speaker 1: tune with all the Swifties. He knows what to say, saying,
- 21:00Speaker 1: what not to say. He's been very protective of that image.
- 21:02Speaker 1: Let's say on that end of things, let me just
- 21:04Speaker 1: ask you this a hypothetical a year ago, what do
- 21:09Speaker 1: you have made this statement? What do you have said,
- 21:12Speaker 1: it's an honor that the president's going to be that
- 21:15Speaker 1: Trump is going to be there. What do you have
- 21:17Speaker 1: said it's the greatest country in the world. Knowing that
- 21:19Speaker 1: he's attached to all the Swifties, who for the most
- 21:22Speaker 1: part don't like Trump at all, What do you have
- 21:23Speaker 1: said that? My answer, my guess is I don't think
- 21:26Speaker 1: he would have. But here's what's happening, and it's great
- 21:30Speaker 1: and it's important. It's cool to be patriotic again, and
- 21:33Speaker 1: it's cool to be proud of your country. And that
- 21:36Speaker 1: may remember we were talking about this collective consciousness with
- 21:40Speaker 1: getting men out of girls' sports. We all kind of said,
- 21:43Speaker 1: enough is enough, you know, enough of the lunacy. Well,
- 21:45Speaker 1: that's happening too. It's important to be patriotic. You can
- 21:48Speaker 1: go two ways. You can be not patriotic and not
- 21:51Speaker 1: like your country or love and support it. And for
- 21:53Speaker 1: a national mindset, it's better to be patriotic. And it's
- 21:56Speaker 1: breaking out all over the place. It's being at the
- 21:59Speaker 1: super Bowl. We're talking a lot of Super Bowl tomorrow
- 22:02Speaker 1: for a Super Bowl special Friday weekend. Well, you don't
- 22:06Speaker 1: talk about sports, we don't care about that, not just
- 22:09Speaker 1: about sports. It's about this American culture of ours and
- 22:11Speaker 1: what else is happening, because there are some big changes
- 22:14Speaker 1: coming to this Super Bowl and what happens at an
- 22:16Speaker 1: event like that on the world stage, it's usually an
- 22:18Speaker 1: indication of what's going on with us. And trust me,
- 22:20Speaker 1: it's all good stuff. It's all good. So that's gonna
- 22:23Speaker 1: be a lot tomorrow. In the meantime. The takeaway, the
- 22:27Speaker 1: end of lunacy is here. It's a great thing, it
- 22:30Speaker 1: really is. You should be celebrating this. It's fantastic. And
- 22:32Speaker 1: the other takeaway, which is the constant, don't take any
- 22:34Speaker 1: craft from anybody ever. You don't have to stand up
- 22:37Speaker 1: for yourself, speak up with all this stuff going on.
