she's alive Adam curry John C. Dvorak
-
this is your award-winning nation media
-
assassination episode this is no agenda
-
[Music]
-
curry from northern Silicon Valley where
-
I am now self-identifying as an American
-
Indian I'm John Sita Bora now you can
-
see the point is you're supposed to do
-
that
-
on your entrance to things not not when
-
you're exiting everything that is truly
-
one of the most beautiful stories of of
-
the week Elizabeth Warren somebody
-
digging up an old form that American
-
Indian as race what a hit job Roger
-
stone no it's now stones out of
-
commission there's people who've learned
-
from him though yeah must be
-
if you don't know we're talking about
-
Elizabeth Warren who we actually called
-
Pocahontas years before Donald Trump so
-
we had to stop doing it yeah we so on
-
top of the DNA tests on top of
-
everything yeah I actually have a have
-
her apology and do you have anything you
-
want to play from a couple of clips but
-
but you know one of the things I was
-
thinking about before I play these clips
-
is that she was born and raised in
-
Oklahoma where there's a lot of people
-
believe that their Cherokee or some
-
other you know Oklahoman tribe is their
-
ancestry sure so I decided to look her
-
up look up look her up for her cuz this
-
is possible that somebody's told her
-
this and yes because that's her story
-
Indian look you're not the hygiene this
-
is exactly what's in my clip so I'll
-
play this as a that you can hear her
-
apology which is exactly this before you
-
do let me just continue okay so I went
-
and looked of all oral high school
-
pictures
-
to see what she looked like in high
-
school to see if she looked anything
-
like an American and he may be you know
-
just a little bit of somewhat you know
-
the cheekbones anything mm-hmm
-
no not even close she's actually
-
gorgeous as a high school girl very
-
attractive and then she started taking
-
very slowly evolved that certain kind of
-
looked at liberal women somehow Gatos
-
kind of a kind of a weird smile she did
-
she always have the short hair no no she
-
had a variety yes yes I think that's
-
what it is it's the really it's the
-
short hair the bob that's that's kind of
-
the trademark well we all you mean once
-
you turn liberal which is the one where
-
she's looks the most like the snotty
-
liberal that you run into these girls
-
are know-it-alls
-
and yes you've got all of a sudden has
-
developed kind of a doing way to people
-
how to have maybe more sports or
-
inclined she has that that John Elway
-
smile which is like this forest kind of
-
oval smile which is very classic and she
-
knew he came from Stanford oh yes she's
-
got a kind of a bob and the hair was
-
long earlier and then she got just look
-
about her well but but none of it was
-
Indian but what you just said gives me
-
an out for her she can be on the
-
Wheaties box she looks like a sports
-
star you looking at her pictures no no
-
she's got the smile of a guy Mike's
-
probably included her cuz she I do have
-
the same I think it's within these two
-
clips I have but play yours we'll see
-
where we go okay this is from Fox News
-
where they broke away to get some to get
-
specific questions about this latest
-
controversy where she hand wrote her her
-
race is American Indian on her Texas bar
-
applica our application prompter by the
-
way this is I think it's Shep Shep Smith
-
and this was Dec who sent me this clip
-
you can hear at the beginning this is
-
something you don't hear often but this
-
is very typical of television where
-
they're coming out of the break and the
-
teleprompter has not yet put up the text
-
and so I think this is Shep Smith he's
-
going prompter prompter prompter
-
Elizabeth Warren here that yeah I love
-
those moments Elizabeth Warren is
-
speaking about her history of claiming
-
Cherokee Indian heritage on applications
-
and otherwise the most recent
-
application for the Texas bar wherein
-
she herself wrote exactly that as
-
witnessed here Warren started speaking
-
during the commercial break so we DVR'd
-
it for you and we'll play it from where
-
we began recording listen why did you
-
miss your self as an American on this
-
Texas bar you've used this part of your
-
background to get ahead and are you
-
saying that this is something you
-
fundamentally believed about yourself or
-
how do you respond to that criticism
-
that this was a knowing attempt to get
-
ahead by using that claim of ancestry is
-
a claim that has been fully investigated
-
and it has now been completely that
-
nothing about my background
-
ever had anything to do with any job I
-
got in any place it's been fully
-
documented
-
there's no evidence any kind of others
-
anymore are there any more documents or
-
any more forms like this austerity that
-
you have listed yourself as I grew up
-
believing with my brothers this is our
-
family story yes it's the story but I
-
think she's lying when she says that
-
it's been documented and investigated
-
that she never had a nobody cares
-
nobody's documented investigated a
-
writer you're right what am I even
-
thinking but listen to the big boys
-
talking about this and I have the two
-
CBS in this case the negress is effort
-
by the way CBS version and it's about
-
how she's actually rewritten I this is
-
very worth very much worth whatever I
-
don't know what kind of phrase I'm
-
trying to come up with they're using
-
valuable airtime it's worth it I take
-
your word for it
-
the senator from Massachusetts
-
apologized today after a decades-old
-
document surface that shows Warren
-
declared herself to be an American
-
Indian Nancy Cordes has more on this I'm
-
not a tribal citizen and I should have
-
been more just more mindful of the
-
distinction Massachusetts senator
-
Elizabeth Warren apologized today for
-
listing American Indian as her race
-
after being accepted to the Texas Bar
-
Association in 1986 this is who I grew
-
up believing with my brothers this is
-
our family story but family stories are
-
not the same as tribal citizenship and
-
this is why I have apologized
-
Warren launched a presidential
-
exploratory committee in December I'm in
-
this fight all the way but she's been
-
dogged by her decision decades ago to
-
list herself as Native American at the
-
University of Pennsylvania and Harvard
-
University and drew fire from Cherokee
-
tribal leaders
-
last year when she tried to put the
-
issue behind her with a highly
-
publicized DNA test followed very
-
closely this is a rewrite she's
-
rewriting history the fact was when she
-
had her DNA test it turned out that
-
there were no real Native American
-
genomes anything that they can compared
-
her to and they had to use South of
-
South American huh
-
markers and so she the best she could do
-
is have a couple of ticks off the box
-
I'm some South American tribe or the
-
Incas or who knows what they were
-
talking about or I don't know but now
-
she's making it sound as though oh wait
-
a minute yeah you have so you get you
-
definitely the who were this recording
-
come from we never heard this before
-
some bogus recording of a guy tell me we
-
did yes no no no no yes we most
-
definitely did this was like it was a
-
either her husband's brother it was some
-
some family relation and he worked at
-
the DNA company and he's not I don't
-
think he's even qualified to analyze it
-
and he's the one that got on the phone
-
and that hokey video they did and and
-
hold on here's the his that bit again
-
and drew fire from Cherokee tribal
-
leaders last year when she tried to put
-
the issue behind her with a highly
-
publicized
-
DNA test I love the facts suggests
-
that's the best part
-
definitely and suggests work together
-
fact-check Falls well anyway so she got
-
herself in a heap of trouble here and
-
then now she's rewriting it to make it
-
sound as if if it wasn't for those damn
-
Cherokee tribal leaders yes who don't
-
recognize her who don't recognize her
-
she'd be good to go yes when his
-
bullcrap
-
but anyway so let's oh she's in it this
-
is a problem for her but she might be
-
able to they maybe you know blow over
-
and she can still maybe take a shot at
-
things but I don't think so but let's
-
play part two or they kind of just put
-
some icing on this cake the chair of the
-
Republican National Committee filed a
-
grievance with the Texas bar today
-
saying attorney Warren should be
-
disciplined for lying in blood but many
-
Democrats argue the real controversy is
-
the president's ongoing racial
-
insensitivity when talking about Warren
-
Warren insisted today that she wasn't
-
seeking special treatment when she
-
listed herself as Native American and
-
that she was never hired because of it
-
but it could complicate her next job
-
application because Jeff she is set to
-
formally launch her bid for the
-
presidency in just four days and she's
-
really going to go through with the
-
announcement it really seems like she's
-
gonna try just ignore this well she made
-
a huge mistake when she didn't run
-
against Hillary or take them take them I
-
mean she would have won I mean
-
everybody's doing it here I've paid
-
careful attention to people like me me a
-
lifelong Republican it was she was all
-
in to vote for Elizabeth what does Mimi
-
think of Liz now she thinks she's a big
-
phony
-
okay dodged the bullet XV yeah she would
-
have gotten anything done cause she's a
-
big talker and no big talk no action
-
woman well but we're in this situation
-
by the way I want to mention that CBS
-
managed to turn it on Trump somehow well
-
of course what else is new but we're in
-
this interesting situation and I'm
-
referring specifically to Virginia where
-
yeah we
-
Scott has become so easy to discredit
-
almost anybody based upon what they've
-
done in the past and you know thanks
-
internet thanks storage you know thanks
-
to scanners that's the technology thanks
-
to technology really the only person you
-
can elect for elective office has yet to
-
be the biggest dud
-
ever well what's you take a look so we
-
have this the governor who appeared in
-
blackface but then he said no that
-
wasn't me I did do blackface once at a
-
Michael Jackson a dance contest which I
-
have to say coming from the Netherlands
-
I remember in the late 70s early 80s
-
when Michael Jackson just just when he
-
still had the the afro there were tons
-
of dance competitions at schools and
-
there was always some kid who would be
-
you know in blackface with the with the
-
big fro wig and would dance their ass
-
off and we'd be like oh my god it's just
-
like Michael Jackson and you know now of
-
course I have you know all kinds of
-
privilege but at the time it didn't seem
-
like anyone you know just seemed like
-
there was less inflammatory I don't know
-
of course we had black kids there was
-
the Netherlands you know we had black
-
kids and we still still have the black
-
Petes you know there's some you got to
-
put some context into it blackface the
-
Al Jolson blackface minstrel show is
-
very different than emulating Michael
-
Jackson or any black person for that
-
reason which is why Jimmy Kimmel and
-
Fallon are very quiet right now you
-
haven't heard them made a lot of jokes
-
about Ralph Northam in Virginia because
-
there's tons of video of them doing
-
skits in blackface yeah I wouldn't be
-
surprised why I do have the rundown on
-
this situation the latest which included
-
the third guy now are these hit jobs too
-
or is this just I mean where's this
-
coming from
-
I don't know but the punch line this has
-
got a punch line to it's a little longer
-
for a clip but it's I believe it's from
-
CBS and it has all the up-to-date
-
information i hey every time I was
-
clipping this all during the week it's
-
like it's oh god they got a new guy
-
another third guy
-
reclip hilarious Virginia mess first it
-
was the governor then the lieutenant
-
governor now the state attorney general
-
the top three leaders in the state all
-
Democrats all facing deep controversy
-
the latest is Attorney General Mark
-
herring who admitted today that he once
-
wore blackface at a college party ed
-
O'Keefe has more on the chaos in the
-
Commonwealth Virginia Democratic
-
lawmakers were in no mood to discuss the
-
latest scandal to Rock Richmond Attorney
-
General Mark herring admitting that he
-
also once dressed in blackface
-
has an undergraduate in 1980 he said in
-
a statement he and friends went to a
-
party as rappers we dressed up and put
-
on wigs and brown makeup he added I have
-
a glaring example from my past that I
-
have thought about with deep regret in
-
the many years since when word reached
-
the State House there were audible gasps
-
and expletives from staffers some
-
lawmakers hung their heads in disbelief
-
and this from the head of the Virginia
-
legislative Black Caucus Lamont Bagby
-
like I said we're not praying enough the
-
scandal rocking it all the way up to
-
Washington today's bombshell comes just
-
days after Haring called for governor
-
Ralph Northam to resign over a racist
-
photo including a man in blackface that
-
was discovered on his medical school
-
yearbook page I am NOT either of the
-
people in that photo after that news
-
conference herring had said it is no
-
longer possible for the governor to lead
-
Virginia Northam remains out of sight as
-
he contemplates his political future
-
he's meeting with black leaders and may
-
hire a private investigator to prove
-
it's not him in the photo then there's
-
lieutenant governor just in Fairfax on
-
now where's al Sharpton where's where's
-
Rover now he'll be around I mean what
-
all this guy has to do is pay off Rev Al
-
and then Reverend I will bless him and
-
you know hug and it'll be a big press
-
conference it'll be good to go but I
-
don't think Reverend Al's not here
-
suddenly or maybe maybe these guys don't
-
know how it works it may hire a private
-
investigator to prove it's not him in
-
the photo then
-
lieutenant-governor Justin fairfax who's
-
facing an allegation of sexual assault
-
during the Democratic National
-
Convention in 2004 today his accuser
-
Vanessa Tyson put out a lengthy
-
statement saying she's a Democrat and is
-
sharing her story with tremendous
-
anguish she says she had gone to Fairfax
-
his hotel room to retrieve documents and
-
that after consensual kissing mr.
-
Fairfax forced him to perform oral sex
-
on him Fairfax has repeatedly denied the
-
allegation and responded today saying
-
reading dr. Tyson's account is painful I
-
have never done anything like what she
-
suggests as all three men consider their
-
next steps
-
Virginia's line of succession states
-
that if Northam steps down Fairfax would
-
take over then herring and next in line
-
Republican Kirk Cox Speaker of the House
-
or the jewel there it is one seat
-
majority twist worthy of the movies the
-
race for that one seat and it is David
-
Yancey and was decided when the name of
-
the Republican winner was pulled out of
-
a ceramic bowl what what is sort of
-
ceramic bowl huffed is it wasn't a white
-
bowl it was a surrett it was a bowl with
-
the date they ended up with a tie at the
-
end of the legislative session for who's
-
gonna Democrat a Republican whoever wins
-
and it was a it was a tie a perfect tie
-
they would pick the name out of a bowl
-
and it was the Republican so the
-
Republicans a guy by one vote who gets
-
to be the next governor if they live all
-
these guys fall apart this was possible
-
but I'm so this was a porcelain bowl
-
ceramic oh I thought tiles ceramic bowls
-
because that that has the implications
-
of a toilet well done good reporting
-
okay so now this does ceramic balls
-
system this does give a a different
-
slant if we now after these three guys
-
are annihilated now the a Republican
-
could wind up governor this is a move
-
yes fantastic great move oh man
-
yeah the
-
this this morning some someone on
-
Twitter which is I think something a
-
phrase I use a lot someone on Twitter
-
it would just forgot tweeted out a clip
-
of the view from 2016 Joy Behar
-
defending this 2016 now defending her
-
costume was she dressed up as an African
-
American the New York Times they had an
-
op-ed piece in praise of naturally curly
-
hair they say that it's making a
-
comeback which I've always had curly
-
statement picture now I know
-
I was soaked you're in the circle 29 it
-
was a Halloween party I went as a
-
beautiful African woman oh yes that is
-
me did you have tanning lotion on I had
-
makeup that was a little bit that's my
-
actual hand love it though do you hear
-
the obsession with well it was just
-
makeup a little darker wasn't really
-
blackface and my hair is really curly I
-
didn't I didn't do anything wrong
-
wow that's a great clip it's kind of I
-
like to have seen that clip cuz you'd
-
have to know him if Whoopi was under the
-
ocean you know she was not sadly you
-
know broke up with Ted Danson for
-
showing up in blackface once when they
-
were I forgot about that you jeez so
-
what'd be would have gone off on her oh
-
man but you know it the end is not near
-
because now the New York Times even I
-
wrote a reason those op-ed but an
-
article how Mary Poppins is racist what
-
yes Mary Poppins is racist because nanny
-
amix was at Nanny McPhee
-
I don't know the story oh it's a
-
beautiful story and it's coming back I
-
know that when they go down the chimney
-
there her face gets covered in soot but
-
instead of wiping it off she gamely I'm
-
reading from the article she gamely
-
powders her nose and cheeks even blacker
-
then she leads the children on a dancing
-
exploration of London rooftops with Dick
-
Van Dyke sooty chimney sweep Bert so and
-
this is quite a still dilled show
-
they're talking about yeah well yes the
-
new one does she come down a black fish
-
in the new movie I don't know I haven't
-
I haven't seen it I did even out I don't
-
know I haven't seen the new movie
-
she doesn't but even but come on forget
-
if it's forget if it's a well I'm gonna
-
but I'm just gonna take decide that if
-
you're gonna call everybody out for
-
doing this no of course there is new now
-
fifty years ago a hundred years ago
-
whenever including blacks who did it
-
most of the minstrel shows the blacks
-
had to put on blackface
-
just because they did be darker which
-
really revealed in a recent Broadway
-
play with which documented all this this
-
era it's like you got a year they're all
-
in or you're all out
-
that's why I think the black Piet thing
-
is gonna be done for let me see I'm
-
looking at this article the black Piet
-
thing is never gonna be done for the
-
Dutch won't allow it put up with a lot
-
it's gonna turn out that black Piet is
-
contributing to global warming well
-
there's that
-
global warming yeah sad this point in
-
history we've but is quite funny for our
-
show is dynamite yes super horse to me
-
show it's great it's gotta be laughing
-
yes exactly I would like to stay with
-
the candidates for 2020 for a moment and
-
I'll start that with the jingle
-
see gather
-
anything but Haggard
-
[Music]
-
that's Tom Sweeny
-
right here in Austin s'more jingle than
-
her political career will be I'm afraid
-
it's kind of kind of over to who
-
for Tulsi Gabbard oh yeah poor Tulsi so
-
now NBC came out I think we may have
-
discussed this on Sunday and had a
-
report from new knowledge the
-
austin-based company that wrote the
-
bullcrap report for the Intelligence
-
Committee which no one references that
-
anymore
-
no one says hey by the way these a-holes
-
who then subsequently got deep platform
-
from Facebook because they were using
-
the same Russian tactics they reported
-
on to the congressional the Senate
-
committee they use the same tactics in
-
the special election in Alabama they got
-
deep platform for it but yet these guys
-
somehow are now credible to say we see
-
websites in BOTS tweeting about Tulsi
-
Gabbard looks like the Russians are on
-
her side week she's gotta be she can't
-
take seriously she's Putin's puppet
-
Putin's puppet if the hijab couldn't get
-
any better David Duke just endorsed her
-
I mean come on to be working for the
-
other side of course he is
-
can you imagine you okay Dave here's who
-
we want you to endorse just of kiss of
-
death endorsement company yeah kiss of
-
death endorsement company is that an
-
acronym we can use codec I like it codec
-
codec the kiss of death endorsement
-
company well luckily we have a Democrat
-
liberal Glenn Greenwald to push back on
-
this and here he is and he actually he
-
he did something that I've never really
-
heard him say or this actually I don't
-
think I've ever heard him
-
make this at this kind of accusation
-
when it comes to a political fracas
-
they claimed in a screaming headline
-
that predictably went viral that she was
-
the Kremlin's favorite candidate one of
-
the reporters who wrote the story
-
tweeted which they the Kremlin has a
-
crush on Tulsi Gabbard something that if
-
it were about a democratic favorite
-
would even denounce not just as
-
adolescent but also sexist yes and of
-
course this is all part of the broader
-
context where the Democratic Party has
-
this maniacal obsession with Russia if
-
you try and debate anything with them
-
about the war in Syria or the ongoing
-
viability of NATO or troops in
-
Afghanistan they just start babbling
-
about the Kremlin and Vladimir Putin in
-
accusing you of being a Russian agent
-
and it's like some kind of like neuro
-
malfunction or or a mania at this point
-
and what's amazing he's doing this to
-
Tulsi Gabbard she was a democratic star
-
just four years ago when she was first
-
elected MSNBC said the first Asian woman
-
elected to the Democratic to the Senate
-
to the house in US history she's an Iraq
-
war veteran on the fast track to fame
-
they made her a vice chairwoman of the
-
Democratic National Committee and now
-
suddenly they're smearing her as an
-
asset of the Kremlin using extremely
-
dubious journalistic tactics for which
-
NBC has become notorious on behalf of
-
both the CIA and the DNC I've never
-
heard Glenn green Glen Glen Greenwald
-
accused that and linked it to the CIA
-
that's kind of a first for him I like
-
that yeah well he wrote a long article
-
on this and the intercept that yeah yeah
-
just condemned but to hold all this
-
practice of they was just trying to
-
destroy Tulsi Gabbard in in the article
-
he did not mention he doesn't have the
-
background on new knowledge that's the
-
part that he's missing he's missing that
-
these got these were the guys that wrote
-
the report that was heralded by
-
everybody did slam new knowledge in his
-
article okay well yes but I think why I
-
thought he could have expands a little
-
more I have a second he was on Tucker
-
actually from his hideout in Brazil at
-
the second clip about the neo-cons
-
moving from
-
the right to the left I thought was just
-
worth worth taking along here in 2014
-
and you can go google this there's an
-
article in The New York Times are not
-
bad by someone who has tried tracked
-
neo-cons for a long time saying that it
-
was clear that there was rising
-
isolationism and anti-war sentiment in
-
the Republican Party and neo-cons were
-
therefore migrating back to the
-
Democrats especially an excitement over
-
the prospect that Hillary Clinton would
-
be the nominee for president in 2016 and
-
that she essentially has a neocon
-
foreign policy she supported the war in
-
Iraq she supported regime change in
-
Libya she was highly critical of Obama
-
for not doing more in Libya for not
-
arming anti-russian factions in Ukraine
-
they love Hillary Clinton and they were
-
migrating back to the Democratic Party
-
so Democrats have become reunited with
-
neo-cons so anyone who deviates from the
-
neocon agenda whether on the left or on
-
the right instantly gets accused of
-
being an asset or a stooge of the
-
Kremlin and that's what they did in NBC
-
in this case relied on a firm that just
-
got caught six weeks ago fabricating
-
Russia data they got kicked off Facebook
-
for doing it and that was NBC's leading
-
quote expert for claiming that chatter
-
shows that the Kremlin is now favoring
-
toasty Gaza there you go
-
you still missin a port part yeah you
-
know the funny thing if you don't
-
realize that the neo-cons all these war
-
mongers that took over the Bush
-
administration the guy that wolf
-
Wolfowitz was the World Bank it's a
-
whole bunch of them and they're all
-
identifiable i'm john bolton how about
-
that john bolton yeah they're making
-
some headway into the trump
-
administration not on a white trumpet
-
yeah we do know because they're all
-
involved in weird sex shit that they
-
can't talk about oh that could be
-
whatever the case they they were
-
originally Liberal Democrats from the
-
sixties the sixties style Liberal
-
Democrat which does involve often from
-
that era the pre-aids are a lot of kinky
-
sex
-
so they revolve and they've some of the
-
Democrat Party get didn't want these
-
guys and so they all became Republicans
-
the party thing was a non-issue to them
-
they just wanted to write because have
-
our create war take over the world they
-
wrote papers about it you can read about
-
American new century I think is one of
-
them a project for a new American
-
Century up right yeah that which is the
-
Teaneck which is the document that said
-
we need a new Pearl Harbor maybe someone
-
could fly an airplane into with the
-
world trade tower legend said that
-
specifically but that's what they were
-
hinting at came pretty damn close so
-
yeah that's good they should be out of
-
they should form their own party who
-
knew it neo-cons neocon party Oh sounds
-
like a winner you know I bet you I bet
-
you someone could twist that and make
-
people buy it I think I think it's
-
doable some pretty a little bit of
-
Bearnaise sauce on there and you're good
-
to go it just takes a lot of Bernays
-
before we get to the State of the Union
-
which you do need to talk about I'd like
-
to preface it with a couple of short
-
clips from
-
pod save the privileged I'm sorry pod
-
save America which is Alea this is your
-
new beat yeah yeah I've been listening
-
some podcasts and getting some stuff so
-
these are the positive America very very
-
successful podcast although I think
-
they're doing some weird stuff because
-
they don't have a show every day and and
-
they had a show before the state of the
-
day before the State of the Union didn't
-
have one
-
the day after didn't have one today
-
instead doing these shows on the road
-
and so they can't record you know that
-
they can only record when they're on
-
stage too hard but they're making a lot
-
of money I mean doing these theater
-
shows I mean that's that's a bank
-
thank for them but you know and you can
-
hear they're kind of tired over like
-
okay we're gonna travel here travel
-
there that's really their of their main
-
income although although I do have we
-
can decide if we want to play it I do
-
have one of their live reads but we'll
-
start off this is pre the State of the
-
Union from pod save the privilege is
-
what I call them now and you know
-
they're former speech writers for Obama
-
two of them and so they start talking
-
about speech writing and you know and I
-
I don't know anything about speech
-
writing I know that Obama had some great
-
jokes he he could deliver Humpty Dumpty
-
and it would sound great but these guys
-
kind of take all the credit for that but
-
they also like to slam Trump's writer in
-
advance of anything and here it is
-
Stephen Miller is such a bad writer
-
offend you guys as former well I made a
-
speechwriter he's someone that can't
-
even put together a sentence is writing
-
these things I mean it's hard to get
-
past the racism with Stephen Miller
-
that's upfront so you don't usually get
-
to the fact that even if he weren't so
-
racist his writing would be really bad I
-
was just a bad writer right look if
-
there were if there were if this was a
-
normal Republican president Stephen
-
Miller would have applied to be speech
-
writer and his would not have made it
-
out of the first pile because there
-
would've been a pile of better speeches
-
and then they'd been like oh who was oh
-
that racist guy yeah yeah well we didn't
-
even get to that when we were we were
-
redefining his speeches
-
George Bush's policies horrendous
-
horrendous policies Michael Gerson
-
pretty good speechwriter
-
yeah great speaker choosing greatness is
-
like a bad motivational speaker you
-
might hear at halftime of a high school
-
football game that is the theme I don't
-
know much about writers but well I don't
-
know much about high school football
-
games except that was in high school
-
once and I don't remember any
-
motivational speaker coming out and
-
giving us a big pep talk what school
-
these guys go to I'm sure some
-
privileged preppy school I don't know
-
but I just thought you know if you're a
-
writer is that how you talk about other
-
writers I guess you know I guess really
-
the sleaze balls that do that there's a
-
lot of them yeah well they're on this
-
show
-
they they lord it over everybody they've
-
just condemned the other riders that are
-
complete condemned the competition is
-
what it amounts to and that is what it's
-
a fact that they dare that in public
-
cause is usually always behind the scene
-
yeah that's kind of weak that's beast
-
beyond weak that is very lame yeah and
-
it is extremely douchey these guys are
-
douchebags
-
wait for it so now they're going to talk
-
about the Democratic answer the counters
-
state of the union by Stacey Abrams yeah
-
the one who lost they bring her out just
-
the best they can do well listen to the
-
hagiography they perform on her the
-
Democrats have chosen former Georgia
-
House Minority Leader Stacey Abrams to
-
deliver the response to trump guys how
-
tough is this job what do you think of
-
the decision and what do you want to
-
hear from Stacey Abrams
-
I think it's an inspired choice Sam she
-
is one of the most exciting candidates
-
who ran last cycle unfortunately she did
-
not win but that doesn't mean she
-
doesn't have a bright future in the
-
party great choice and she's brilliant
-
we love Stacey Abrams you know I would
-
say it is a it is a very very tough job
-
to do this the speech that she gave on
-
election night and then the follow-up
-
speech she gave when she refused to
-
concede when she accepted the results
-
that refused to concede were two of the
-
best speeches I've heard from a
-
democratic politician in years she's
-
brilliant she also just wrote this
-
really fantastic piece in foreign policy
-
magazine about places it is brilliant
-
and III defies you're going to be seen I
-
defy someone to find a politician who
-
writes in that kind of academic style so
-
brilliantly in either party yeah in
-
politics today actually you know what I
-
appreciate about it is actually it
-
reminds me also it reminds me of you
-
know she's not writing it to make a case
-
for herself as a candidate she's saying
-
here's what I believe here's a kind of
-
politics I ascribe to that will guide me
-
in the future and it reminds me also if
-
so a lot of the early writing of
-
Elizabeth Warren that was not geared
-
around helping her win but just sort of
-
laying out an ideological case for a
-
kind of economic politics and this was
-
laying out an ideological case for a
-
kind of identity politics that she just
-
defended and in a really thoughtful and
-
smart way
-
she's so inspiring she's just the best
-
writer ever you should read this piece
-
if you have an informed policy magazine
-
it's about identity politics and how
-
it's good and it brings us together it's
-
it's it's like whoa their foreign
-
policies the magazine you read if you
-
want to see what to see the Council on
-
Foreign Relations is up to what they're
-
trying to push hmm well maybe that's why
-
she's there
-
maybe she it seems like she's being
-
pushed cuz when I looked after the State
-
of the Union I saw yeah of course after
-
the after the Democratic response
-
yeah like AHA she's a rising star she's
-
great yeah Chuck Schumer wants her to
-
run for Senate it's like okay that's
-
fine
-
well I watched her I don't know what the
-
fuss is about no I didn't read her
-
material and I by the way which I which
-
I doubt she wrote by the way tell me she
-
wasn't on green screen she was talking I
-
didn't watch her live and I was watching
-
on a small on the top oh you've got to
-
see it it's no it's so it's so pathetic
-
they had good they had I think well
-
here's what happened they had her in a
-
in a room and it did have a I don't
-
think it was a green background of his a
-
background and it just felt really dead
-
and so they said oh we got to put some
-
people behind her and had this b-roll
-
footage and they keyed her on top of it
-
because it wasn't green screen the key
-
the outline of her her hair her whatever
-
she was wearing or jacket or sweater it
-
was you could see it I mean I've been
-
around television long enough this break
-
is superimposed and it's just like yeah
-
par for the course you phonies couldn't
-
even get a crowd in to have her do this
-
speech was which is about her and her
-
family and her dad and yeah I guess it
-
was inspired but what yeah inspired by
-
Hannah hook it into me or I'm I'm
-
inspirational and then I think we can
-
play this the pot save the privilege
-
boys go from all this hoity-toity nough
-
straight into a NAD+ Americans
-
by Oatley Oatley is the vegan
-
plant-based oat milk originally from
-
Sweden now available in the u.s. sound
-
like they're really into this product
-
ringing of insincerity weight gets
-
better because they're gonna try and
-
play it off as well listen to this here
-
we go
-
actually this is really an ad for the
-
crooked media ad department because look
-
at Oatley they invent oat milk in the
-
90s and managed to make more than enough
-
of it to keep Swedes happy for 25 years
-
they bring their nice little oat milk to
-
the US run some ads on the pot and boom
-
they get cleaned out they probably
-
thought running it out in the pod would
-
make their lives better you know just to
-
introduce a few Americans to oat milk
-
but it made their lives a lot worse now
-
they have to build a bunch of oat milk
-
factories just to keep up with the
-
demand I bet they didn't think this
-
would happen monsters this is a boring
-
story and there's three people that host
-
this show in Los Angeles who is Tom
-
Oates stories hey there's someone on the
-
there's somebody how do you see how this
-
is going off the rails these guys they
-
can't do it they have to make fun of it
-
they can't take it seriously they can't
-
bring themselves to actually read the ad
-
and just try and sell the product they
-
have to sneak in there and all kinds of
-
little nuances that they I mean they
-
have to do this but we're really above
-
it you see on the wire there's been some
-
wires cross because I don't see any name
-
here and I hear somebody else oak based
-
editor the point is we are taking 100%
-
of the credit for making Oatley famous
-
and their lives measure meaningfulness
-
of course there's a slight chance that
-
only taste so good that people just like
-
to buy a lot of it people like Tommy or
-
that it's sustainable in people like
-
that because they're interested in
-
having a planet to live on in the future
-
I think we should just take the credit
-
okay yeah it's all us
-
alright what was the name of the product
-
John the oatmeal my point exactly
-
oat ly that's right pod saved the
-
priviledge talkin nut milk good work
-
boys
-
well you think one of them would have at
-
you me if they had it there and they
-
could all drink it and see what they
-
think of it cuz they probably wouldn't
-
like it uh I'm sorry that we had that
-
you have to do this I don't have to but
-
I kind of feel good about doing it as
-
well it's an odd way and I like
-
listening to their show it's like it
-
just wow
-
alright these guys definitely think
-
differently than me differently
-
different different ideas it's okay
-
that's what's good different ideas it's
-
all good that's slam writers uh that guy
-
can't write okay write can't write maybe
-
they just talk about podcasting for a
-
second before we go in the state of the
-
union caste I mean go podcasting till
-
confirmed Spotify acquired gimlet media
-
and anchor and they now will be folded
-
into the Spotify business mm-hmm and I
-
went back and reviewed we actually have
-
two proposals that we received one from
-
Spotify one from Pandora and I gotta
-
tell you this we can't do this we can
-
never go to one of these outfits because
-
when I read between the lines and this
-
is more from my own experience and
-
public knowledge not necessarily
-
something that they sent me you've been
-
taken already is that it's going to be
-
these podcasts will no longer be
-
playable anywhere but on Spotify Spotify
-
app which is not necessarily a bad thing
-
but if you don't pay you will be getting
-
ads and there's a sufficient suspicion
-
that you'll be getting ads even if you
-
are paying because they really have to
-
recoup this investment and yeah you've
-
got people on the service and using it
-
but I think a lot of people will you
-
know continue with the the free which is
-
what the bulk of their listeners are is
-
free and that's based on advertising and
-
you won't be able to skip past the ads
-
which is another thing that's going to
-
be better either complicated
-
but just the fact that all of their
-
deals surround some type of advertising
-
makes our show impossible for that this
-
can't happen wouldn't be a show well why
-
don't we put together something special
-
for them no that's not our show it's we
-
still do our show and they will do the
-
spotify version um no I'm not I can't I
-
can't bring myself to do tell me man
-
wait is it that cool stuff from Sweden I
-
keep hearing about
-
yeah I was it was really good as we say
-
in Sweden nutmilk
-
yes could I maybe we could do it
-
actually wasn't that bad I think we
-
could so can we conclude this executive
-
meeting yeah it's a dud it's it's not
-
for us but however there is I did find a
-
service which I'll be talking about
-
somewhere down the road finally did what
-
I've been looking for they have a
-
blanket license for all music yeah yes
-
and you can but it's not about streaming
-
cuz you know if I do it like the daily
-
source code if I brought that back which
-
I would really like to I'm not so
-
worried about you know a couple hundred
-
people listening while I do it live on
-
the stream but these guys have it so you
-
can download it put it on your phone
-
listen to it wherever you are no ads and
-
of course you have to pay for it but
-
it's you know this is the pricing I
-
think is what's interesting what they're
-
doing you think you have to pay like a
-
minimum of $2.99 a month to subscribe to
-
a channel that has whatever music is in
-
it no matter how many shows are in there
-
and and all the royalties for the
-
artists are paid out of that and the
-
rest goes to the as they call create or
-
but here's the cool thing you can put
-
any amount you want and the creator
-
himself can say here's the minimum
-
amount so it's kind of like a
-
monetization platform all in one the way
-
you can actually play music which is the
-
only thing I've been wanting to do for
-
10 years longer than that 15 years
-
so for daily source code there's some
-
opportunities and also not including
-
advertising I just can't do it I've
-
listened to these pods save the
-
privileged guys I I can't I can't do it
-
I can't do it seriously anymore
-
I used to well you're condemning them
-
because they can't do it I'm condemning
-
them because they're not taking it
-
seriously and they're just you know
-
they're so embarrassed by it even trying
-
they're not even trying really you know
-
they tried to write a little skit it's
-
just lame now but that's all because
-
they can't be writers big the segment's
-
closed good work so we'll stay here but
-
we do need your help so we can continue
-
to do things like what were you doing
-
you're looking at Elizabeth Warren's
-
that's value for value right there you
-
made my podcasting partner go look at
-
Liz Warren pictures danger pay I say
-
danger pay isn't as in order well we can
-
start off talking about this the State
-
of the Union speech with NBC's in this
-
case it was compilation that they did
-
write off this is MSNBC take on so to
-
blaming bite and it's kind of an
-
interesting an interesting little tidbit
-
they took the State of the Union speech
-
and instead of analyzing no no no
-
they're gonna take the State of the
-
Union speech and then put some old trunk
-
material in there where he's been
-
slamming somebody little more state of
-
the union's slamming somebody slamming
-
slamming slamming stir and then they're
-
going ah he's a horrible person yeah I
-
think these guys are so stupid that they
-
allow they have all the Trump Slams of
-
Biden and it it's like they're
-
condemning Trump for slamming biting but
-
at the same time they're letting all
-
this anti bite and propaganda go over
-
the air even though they're supposedly
-
mocking it I'm wondering whether they
-
hate biting and they're doing this on
-
purpose and letting Trump ticked it's
-
like you know well this guy said this
-
and you play a clip of him even though
-
it's
-
you think you know John what I think is
-
happening right now is there so many
-
contenders potentially for the 2020
-
United States election which is just
-
ridiculous that we're gonna I refuse to
-
talk about it for the next two years but
-
okay we'll have to do something all
-
these different stations are all
-
different fractions CNN is choosing
-
their people M NBC NBC News is choosing
-
their people in it and they're doing it
-
too well first of all the kind of
-
vetting you know who has access to money
-
so the one who's kind of quiet right now
-
is bet oh hey but he showed up on Oprah
-
I know Oprah's own Network and he said
-
I'll let something know by the end of
-
the month you know he's doing the rounds
-
and and the the media outlets are just
-
seeing okay who really has the
-
capability to spend a lot of money
-
advertising with us and they promote
-
them yeah and they probably exactly what
-
it is and they of course the big-money
-
person who will come in late in the game
-
because she's learned her lesson is not
-
to not to commit too early yeah and that
-
is Hillary but let's just listen to this
-
little bit here it's pretty funny this
-
is the time to rekindle the bonds of
-
love and loyalty and memory that link us
-
together as citizens as neighbors as
-
Patriots you are a rude terrible person
-
that's okay I know you're not thinking
-
you never do they call her Pocahontas
-
very low IQ
-
hello like you this is our future our
-
fate and our choice to make a life we
-
call him one percent Biden until Obama
-
took him off the trash if he couldn't do
-
anything now he's talking about right I
-
think she's very bad for our country I
-
am asking you to choose greatness
-
no matter the trials we face no matter
-
the challenge is to come that hair is
-
getting whiter and whiter and he's
-
getting crazier in praise we must go
-
forward together thank you for the
-
brilliant people on my team who put that
-
together that's this at all I don't
-
really have anything to add the proper
-
unity set all those things so it's do as
-
I say not do as I do and if that moment
-
during last night's address theme
-
sanctimonious consider what Trump told a
-
group of TV anchors that have private
-
lunch literally hours before from Peter
-
Baker in the New York Times he writes
-
quote mr. Trump dismissed former Vice
-
President Joe Biden is dumb called
-
Senator Chuck Schumer of New York and
-
nasty son of a bleep and mocked Governor
-
Ralph Northam of Virginia who he said
-
choked like a dog at a news conference
-
where he tried to explain erase this
-
yearbook photo that's according to
-
multiple people in the room joining us
-
is a reporter with that too Peter Baker
-
New York Times chief White House
-
correspondent Peter Baker there's some
-
things that you read about him that are
-
amazing and it wasn't joke like a dog
-
and son of a bleep that was amazing what
-
was amazing is that they tried to spin
-
the anchors that there was going to be
-
some grace note in this speech that he
-
was going to talk about unity that to me
-
was the big whopper lie of the night
-
well it's one thing to try to turn a
-
corner to pivot away from some of the
-
division that there has been out there
-
and try to in effect set a new tone of
-
bipartisanship or unity but to have just
-
a few hours earlier a lunch like this
-
where you make clear that that's not
-
really what's in your head in your heart
-
that moment you know it's pretty
-
striking I think you're right in his
-
heart here's what else came out of his
-
mouth he said he hoped he would get to
-
run against Biden I hope it's Biden
-
Biden was never very smart he was a
-
terrible student his ghasts are
-
unbelievable when I say something that
-
you might think is a guy it's on purpose
-
it's not a gas when Biden says something
-
dumb it's because he's
-
yeah they do not want Biden to run
-
that's for sure
-
yeah I think that's not protecting him
-
at all you know then this is
-
what's-her-face Nicole Wallace who
-
usually who worked for she was
-
Republican she worked for the
-
Republicans she's really just mean she's
-
Vidor and bitter and and I think Van
-
Jones you know he said the same thing
-
that she just did there except he's did
-
it in seven seconds that's right I saw
-
this as a as a psychotically incoherent
-
speech with cookies and dog poop
-
I mean you nailed it man just say that
-
not sure what it means
-
doesn't mean anything cookies and dog
-
poop yeah well it was funny to look at
-
the numbers that seem to have come out
-
of the speech which is a huge positive
-
response from the Republicans to the
-
tune of 97 percent well yeah
-
and 30 percent for the Democrats and 82
-
for the independents which is really all
-
that can right how much for the
-
independence 82 and whose numbers of
-
these this came from the sources that is
-
a good source and it was Muse I think I
-
first saw it on c-span but it was it was
-
a decent source speaking of which c-span
-
speaking of c-span c-span and they
-
started to do all kinds of they made all
-
kinds of directorial decisions I had not
-
seen before they were cutting to people
-
when it was but they were too had shot
-
cues they were ready they were tight
-
zooms talk about socialism boom there's
-
Bernie I mean they had this down you
-
don't know that this wasn't a feed that
-
were taken from NBC ABC or CBS I don't
-
it's a pool so I don't know who was in
-
charge of it but it was not as neutral
-
as c-span typically is I would take I
-
would assume they're taking somebody
-
else's feed that's something to change
-
their style their style is to put the
-
camera up there and leave it there well
-
it was a departure from previous state
-
of the unions yeah
-
at least what I've see and we should
-
probably say the state of the union that
-
because you sure everyone in the world
-
is heard about it because the all
-
foreign press just gets up in the
-
morning copy-paste and translates in
-
English whatever the New York Times or
-
was it wop oh whatever they said USA
-
Today and then they you know they paste
-
that file it has some coffee good to go
-
so state of the union is something in
-
our constitution where the from time to
-
time the President shall update both
-
houses of Congress on the State of the
-
Union so all of this is just show it
-
show and it's also the you know he could
-
have quite honestly he said the State of
-
the Union is strong it's like well I
-
disagree I think we got lots of problems
-
I I would have thought of the better
-
although Trump would never do that if he
-
said we got our issues but we're doing
-
okay it's something like that a little
-
more funny thing is is that there was a
-
good run down I think it was done by The
-
Times or the one of the one of the
-
papers of the length of of the speeches
-
it's very clear when you look at the
-
shortest speeches and the longest
-
speeches that the shortest speeches are
-
always done by Republicans and the
-
longest speeches are always done by
-
Democrats except Trump falls into the
-
Democrat camp having two of the longest
-
speech is 82 and 88 minutes right under
-
the Brecker breaker which was Bill
-
Clinton I think it was 90 minutes this
-
thing should have been 45 minutes tops
-
it shouldn't have been that there's
-
there are some if you look at this that
-
this little there's some shorty some
-
thirty minute speeches which would be
-
just fine we don't need this long
-
what is this was his it was a tone I
-
liked his tone by the way I thought he
-
struck the right tone I think that that
-
does matter to heat something about it
-
was just right he started off with a lot
-
of the heavy breathing he got that under
-
control
-
the
-
it was me it's more like a rally is just
-
it didn't have the enthusiasm of a rally
-
but had all the same topics and he had
-
moments where like when he got
-
everywhere all of the house chanting USA
-
USA I would have been like all right
-
let's go that's what we need everybody
-
see ya
-
he walked off right there would have
-
been perfect all right we have unity
-
I've done it we all love USA go USA and
-
I'm out that would have been fantastic
-
but no then he came back with ripping
-
babies from mothers wombs it was a real
-
roller coaster well then there's the
-
issue of these idiotic white dresses
-
well that's that's Nancy's little army
-
Nancy's army who's she's signaling to
-
like be quiet what the hell was Nancy
-
doing with those papers what was in
-
those papers that she had the papers
-
desk it was really and and she's and I
-
think this is just age and on be a just
-
but you're in your 80s and you don't
-
realize everyone sitting down and we're
-
moving on oh crap let me shuffle my
-
paper sit down now yeah and then just
-
signaling for people to get up for
-
people to sit down it was pathetic I
-
think it made it really was a disservice
-
to these women in my oppose every
-
Republican woman who was in the white
-
and they were doing high fives and it
-
was not Republican silly look like a
-
sorority club or something that's very I
-
thought it was demeaning to be honest
-
about it but they c-span did have a
-
little thing at the end where they were
-
he had the mic out there and they're at
-
desk and everybody would walk by for
-
some comments and so they wanted to know
-
what this what the point of white was
-
why wasn't it red it could have been
-
yellow about blue how about green giant
-
paw of Washington a Democrat first of
-
all the Democratic women were all
-
dressed in white for what reason
-
it was very powerful and you saw that
-
almost all of us were on the Democratic
-
side of the chamber there were a couple
-
of moments there where President Trump
-
mentioned women and the power of women I
-
don't think he expected us to take it
-
the way we did but we all started
-
high-fiving each other and we were very
-
happy that the power of women was
-
recognized so I would just point out we
-
were all on the Democratic side of the
-
chamber it seemed a little playful
-
though he was playing with you a little
-
bit I don't think he really had a choice
-
I mean I think we sort of took over the
-
floor at that moment and and I think it
-
was really about the contributions of
-
women to this country and we're very
-
proud that we have the most diverse the
-
most female Congress that we've seen in
-
a long time okay now I'm gonna ask the
-
question that you heard what she said
-
he asked the question for what reason
-
did you wear white well I know what was
-
written about this it was to celebrate
-
the suffragettes that was rich seemed
-
that seemed to be written after the fact
-
as an excuse and if you go back and look
-
at suffragettes though they were what
-
they were a bustle bustle do tell what
-
is a bustle it's the thing it makes up
-
your hips look like they're huge and
-
makes a dress flare way out Oh a bustle
-
like you have a corset and then a bustle
-
yeah of course it did a bustle well now
-
this is again he asked her specifically
-
for what reason what did she say did she
-
answer that question alone no she did I
-
don't know I listened to it a couple of
-
times she couldn't answer because nobody
-
knows it was a fence a suffragettes as
-
far as I'm concerned it was the thing
-
that IOC started when she took her oath
-
when she was sworn in and she at the
-
time said it was representative of the
-
suffragettes I think it was an AOC thing
-
that Nancy wanted to keep under control
-
and she wanted to pull it all towards
-
her and and I think the combo of the
-
white with the pearls they all had on
-
was kind of a fashion no no no there was
-
a horrible horrible look I mean I've
-
been around fashion like no that's not
-
although a o'seas white outfit was
-
stunning what a great outfit I like that
-
a lot
-
that was good she
-
she had it was Eilish she's the only
-
wild I saw that was a great outfit and I
-
love the you those do you see some woman
-
like with black on oh boy
-
or someone with red no hello State of
-
the Union five years ago used to be they
-
all came in red you're the power the
-
power women dumb that's white thing was
-
it was pretty interesting to see it from
-
them from the camera angle but it was
-
you I don't think it was I think was a
-
flop well it identified everybody and
-
it's it was about them well this is
-
what's interesting is they were all
-
scowling at all but most were scowling
-
were not clapping until it was about
-
them and then they were all jumping up
-
and down
-
yeah which is like okay who are you
-
really there for it was a to me it was a
-
fun show to watch it was way too long I
-
mean that and I and I think Trump should
-
have had the the showmanship to know
-
when to stop it or he should have
-
reordered some of these topics and
-
gotten some other things they just it
-
the flow was way too roller coaster
-
there was no no build-up to the end in
-
that regard it was poor very poor I
-
didn't think much of it I didn't thought
-
but I'd never liked any of these now we
-
did have the guy again back to the
-
c-span guy I thought this was funny this
-
Paul Tonko he comes in and he has his he
-
condemns the this speech for a reason
-
that was kind of unexpected but I got a
-
kick out of this of course because it's
-
somatic for our show what committees are
-
you on and what are your legislative
-
goals for this being in the majority no
-
sure I serve on Energy and Commerce and
-
I serve on Science Space and Technology
-
under Energy and Commerce I now have the
-
chairmanship responsibilities of the
-
Subcommittee on Environment and climate
-
change so very distressed that I didn't
-
hear a word about climate change when
-
the president talks about national
-
security the climate change is an
-
ultimate solution
-
about international harmony climate
-
change is a threat to that harmony we
-
need to address it wait a minute I want
-
to go back and listen to that again that
-
was pretty it was pretty stellar huh
-
climate change is an ultimate solution
-
sounds very creepy let's go back a
-
little more out climate change when the
-
president talks about national security
-
climate change is an ultimate solution
-
so national security climate change is
-
the ultimate solution that's exactly
-
what he said what what do you think that
-
means I wonder myself I wish I'd ever
-
since he said that I've been wondering
-
whether it would it might mean uh
-
climate change is the ultimate solution
-
to national security how does that work
-
what in what way is it the ultimate
-
solution solution yeah Nazis is what it
-
sounds like
-
yeah Nazis do they have the ultimate
-
solution creepy when he talks about
-
international harmony climate change is
-
a threat to that harmony we need to
-
address it I will tell you we'll
-
continue we're going to continue forward
-
with our advocacy for climate change to
-
be addressed we're having our first
-
hearing tomorrow we will show the
-
American public that we hear the people
-
we will embrace and respect science we
-
will understand let them know we
-
understand the urgency and we will work
-
very hard to develop solutions based on
-
science and evidence so we're gonna have
-
a very aggressive approach there's been
-
a dry spell for far too long in the
-
House of Representatives with this issue
-
not being addressed it impacts great
-
greatly on our on our economy it impacts
-
on public great and it's costing us
-
dearly
-
yeah well the aoc faction just came out
-
with a new new version of the new Green
-
Deal which I haven't had a chance to
-
review but I will for Sunday so it's
-
it's it's kind of like the Constitution
-
you know it's a living document now we
-
do have the guy saying that the public
-
is act by all this that we haven't been
-
discussing it enough I don't know anyone
-
who's irked by personally but maybe it's
-
just me
-
he's just make
-
this up as he goes along but it but the
-
truth comes out in the second part of
-
his clip where he matches really what
-
this is always gonna be about it's snuck
-
in there as usual you'll hear it so you
-
bring a you bring a spotlight to that
-
issue but if you want legislation a what
-
kind of legislation or would you aim for
-
and beat what are you gonna do about the
-
Senate okay
-
I think we have support in a in both
-
houses and I believe there's growing
-
support based on the public's desire to
-
have this issue address so I'm confident
-
we can approach this issue along two
-
tracks simultaneously one where we
-
harvest the low-hanging fruit energy
-
efficiency weatherization conservation
-
research grid modernization a recharging
-
stations that are made more accessible
-
more readily fueling the the cars that
-
we electrify and then also on a separate
-
track but when what did he saying
-
more readily back a little more here a
-
great modernization grid modernization
-
whatever that means a recharging
-
stations that are made more accessible
-
more readily fueling the the cars that
-
this is an odd statement to say recharge
-
stations more readily available to fuel
-
the cars and we electrify and then
-
realign a separate track but
-
simultaneously address a price on carbon
-
of reduction of carbon pollution we need
-
to be much more soundly the stewards of
-
our environment and we need to respect
-
the generations that will follow us your
-
district has been affected by industrial
-
job loss the president seems to have an
-
industrial policy do you agree with not
-
always I think he his rhetoric doesn't
-
match his actions
-
hmm so the guys have been a Rust Belt
-
area and I guess this did nobody can get
-
work because of him and his stupid ideas
-
but they keep voting to man so what are
-
you gonna do it's a Democrat bunch of
-
Democrat Union guys is my guess all
-
right anyway that's one of the one of
-
the things that I noticed the climate I
-
call them the climate change jerk you
-
want to transition to climate change for
-
a minute or you want to stick a couple
-
more of the things I do have a
-
switchback example that was on the State
-
of the Union speech done by NBC well we
-
can't do anything until you call it a
-
whipsaw I can't remember what they call
-
it
-
so tomorrow night the State of the Union
-
divided with President Trump fighting on
-
multiple fronts like immigration the
-
very topic that prompted the first 35
-
day government shutdown now mr. Trump is
-
refusing to rule out a second shutdown
-
unless Democrats fund his border wall
-
well we're gonna have to see what
-
happens so let's go over this one he
-
refuses to rule out a second down we'll
-
see what happens and he says we'll see
-
what happens how is that ruling it out
-
not at all it's not really and I never
-
heard him you know make up an assertion
-
I refused to rule out a second no he
-
never did that and then they have this
-
lame clip of him saying I mean let me
-
listen to it again tomorrow night the
-
State of the Union divided with
-
President Trump fighting on multiple
-
fronts like immigration the very topic
-
that prompted the first 35 day
-
government shutdown now mr. Trump is
-
refusing to rule out a second shutdown
-
unless Democrats fund his border wall
-
well we're gonna have to see what
-
happens yeah and it's even more
-
interesting that you know this is
-
threatening threatening with a national
-
emergency that was a question that was
-
initially asked by a member of the press
-
and he said I I could do that that's
-
possibility he never came out and stated
-
it the press you know hounded him for it
-
yeah at least that's the only instance I
-
can recall well I think we've already
-
isolated what's really gonna happen
-
which is not a national no it's 10 USC
-
284 which gives the president this
-
absolute authority to implement all the
-
things he's been talking about under the
-
auspices of stopping drugs and
-
transnational crime and that's already
-
law and he doesn't have to get any
-
appropriation for it he can just go do
-
it yeah I think that was the one of the
-
if anyone listens to this show regularly
-
they'll note that this is one of the
-
greatest observations that I think we've
-
ever put out there well that's when I
-
came up with it let's see if he uses it
-
he will
-
is with that guy when this questioning
-
we could go back and do that segment
-
again but let's go to the second by the
-
way there's this was a series of about
-
four switchback are whipsaws I these are
-
the only two that were the best and so I
-
just took these two this is number two
-
and the president is ramping up his
-
threats to declare a national emergency
-
even as some allies urge him not to
-
how can president Trump strike a
-
unifying note at his State of the Union
-
address with the threat of a national
-
emergency on the table well the two are
-
not the same the national emergency if
-
he were in fact to execute on that
-
Christine which he has not so far is
-
because he believes that we have a
-
crisis on the southern border right man
-
I missed this one good okay let's start
-
let me give it another run
-
Welker says he's ramping up his threats
-
ah declare a national emergency they
-
can't even find any sort of a clip that
-
would see anything to do with this so
-
they bring in Kellyanne Kellyanne asked
-
her an obscure question it's got nothing
-
to do with anything it's Richard what
-
she says I don't know what you're
-
talking about
-
we're it worse so the point is that they
-
this is a little more advanced instead
-
of you exemplifying the the idiotic with
-
a comet that's got nothing to do with it
-
by the person that they're accusing of
-
having something to do with it they
-
bring in a third party they can't even
-
get that close I'm gonna play it again
-
and the president is ramping up his
-
threats to declare a national emergency
-
even as some allies urged him not to
-
how can president Trump strike a
-
unifying note at his State of the Union
-
address with the threat of a national
-
emergency on the table what the two are
-
not the same the national emergency if
-
he were in fact to execute on that
-
Christine which he has not so far is
-
because he believes that we have a
-
crisis on the southern border also she
-
put in there that allies our allies are
-
urging him not to do this what I didn't
-
even know the ally allies were urging
-
this we didn't have an example of that
-
either they got a Kellyanne Conway who
-
was an obvious ally she was like
-
befuddled by the question so he's not
-
ramping up his threats this is NBC it's
-
shameful really
-
the misleading reporting that just never
-
has which is exactly what Glenn
-
Greenwald was talking of said at the
-
beginning of the show that from that
-
clip of his says these guys are just
-
hopeless and the Republican wealth Fox
-
News I should just say Fox News well
-
here's an example of Fox News home run
-
knocked it out of the park
-
great speech that's pretty much with
-
everyone that was it that was all home
-
run knocked it out of the park coach
-
rockin and rollin and great good and
-
then they all go off and yell about the
-
women and white and everything is it is
-
so harmful to your health and I hope
-
that a lot of no agenda producers tried
-
to save some of the family members and
-
not even let them watch it just just in
-
these cases it's much healthier to let
-
us do that and we've built up some
-
resistance over the years yeah and our
-
family in a sense of humor yeah and our
-
families understand us like no well okay
-
but thanks to you now I don't mean you
-
John thanks to the producers of this
-
program which is everyone within the
-
sound of our voices it's as possible as
-
if you make it possible for us to do
-
