Speaker 1 (00:10):
Up from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George Washington
Broadcast Center is the fact weekend talk show in America.
I'm Strong and Getting, keys are Strong and jetting. We
call this the best weekend talk show in America. Come on,
(00:31):
it's the age of hyperbole. In fact, it's the most
hyperbolic age I've ever heard of. It actually is the
best we can talk to show in America because we
take a look and honest look at all the big stories,
the issues, the controversies of the week, cut through the
spin in the garbage fet you by those who would
lead you around by your nose, and try to get
to the truth. If you like it, check out our
daily podcast I'm Strong and Getting on demand. That's a
(00:53):
pretty good idea. It's pretty good. So Joe Biden sitting
(01:13):
there with the King of New Guinea or somebody, and
when he gets done, uh, nobody was interested in what
he was doing. They all just wanted to scream at
him about the classified documents and why you didn't tell
the sooner and all that sort of stuff. And that
was the cacophony of sound. As he stood there with
a look on his face that to me read I
am in a scandal. I am fully embroiled in a scandal. Yes, indeed,
(01:37):
I've got to smile and ignore these people as they
shout unendingly. So we've been discussing why and how the
nation's presses read said that the People's watchdog have rediscovered
their teeth somehow and why that is a lot of folks,
including y'all as you drop us emails and texts, are
suggesting that well, Biden has outlived his usefulness. He's an embarrassment.
(01:58):
They want to get him out of the way for
twenty twenty four. Uh. You know that may there may
be some truth to that. I'm not sure it's an
organized campaign to accomplish that. Honestly, Jack, you've suggested that
the members of the press, while they are morton willing
to be blatant partisans, don't particularly like to have their
intelligence insulted. No, they don't like to being treated like
(02:19):
their stupid and um like ABC. Uh. This week opened
with John Carl Carl saying, for the first time this week,
the White House has had to change its story and
they don't like it. When obviously what you told me
to my face the other day was a lie. They
don't like that. Nobody likes that. For instance, let's let's
(02:40):
run clip number twenty four. There, Michael on Friday, did
you or did you not know about the additional I
already I literally just answer that question, but I am
it yes or not? I mean, you're you're not too
far sitting next to her. You guys can ask me
this a hundred times, two hundred times if you wish.
I'm going to keep saying the same thing. I hear
(03:02):
your question. It's been asked, it's been answered, it's been noted.
Apparently they don't feel that way. That's funny. I mean
they don't feel like you have answered that question. Apparently,
here's another exchange six tim I have been forthcoming from
this podium. I've also been very clear about being prudent
from here, guys. You guys can ask me this a
(03:25):
hundred times, two hundred times if you wish. Why isn't
the matter of this White House Council to deal with
documents from two administrations ago? These are what I'm talking about,
presidential records from this White House. Why is this White
House Council involved in this matter at all? Again, this
is something for the White House counsel to address. Okay,
folks have together. I'll see you guys tomorrow turned out
(03:48):
to my fault. Are you sorry about that? I'll see
you tomorrow. Come talk to me tomorrow. So what that
reporter said, off semi off Mike was play play again,
Michael or I'll see you nice tomorrow. That turned out
to the fault. Are you sorry about that? I'll see
(04:08):
you tomorrow, Come talk to me. You told us something
that turned You told us something six times that turned
out to be false. Are you sorry? That's it? Come
see me, she says. So to Jack's theory, the White
House White House Press is getting piste off at KJP
(04:31):
and her week act. Yeah, well, in the dishonesty, she's
being a order to you know, throw their away. Yeah,
she's you know, it ain't her. Um uh So, the
story that broke overnight is that the Justice Department at
least considered sending the FBI in to the think tank
(04:55):
or Biden's home the way they did at mar Lago,
and decided, for whatever reason, and this may come out
you know in our republican led investigation, UM decided not
to that they'd let lawyers handle it or whatever. UM.
I heard somebody the other day say, how is this
not windbreaker time? Windbreaker time? When the when the FBI
(05:19):
agents show up with their blue windbreakers that say FBI
on the back. How is it not windbreaker time when
you've got the third batch of documents that just show
up and okay, well, you know and and your lawyers
are there. Okay, we need somebody else there to keep
an eye on what you're doing. Well, particularly because the
private lawyers are saying, yes, we'll go through the room
(05:40):
now and see if there are any classified documents? Are
there there? They have no security clearance, these lawyers, so
they're claiming, yes, we came across an envelope full of
classified documents, so we immediately averted our eyes. We didn't
read a single word of them, and have turned them
over to the Justice Department. Now, um uh, was it
windbreak your time or not? That would be a heck
(06:01):
of a thing. I mean a lot of people on
the right side of politics, not the correct side, the
right politically side, which often is the correct side. Man,
This is a confusing um who lean Republican, A lot
of people who lean toward Trump. We're you know, sending
the FBI. Did you have to do that and all
that sort of stuff. Jesus, that's for a former president.
(06:24):
Imagine having the FBI go into the home of the
current president. WHOA, that's a pretty dramatic that's a heck
of a move right there. Yipes. Yeah, yeah, and it
does not have a good look either. So I like
this one. This is a good one. So, uh, there's
no record. This was the story yesterday, right that the
(06:46):
Secret Service has no record of who comes in and
out because it's private is private home, so it's a
it's a tradition that at your own home, we don't
we don't, you know, make public who's coming in and
out of your home. Which I get that as an argument.
You gotta be able to have someplace you can go
where the public doesn't have a list of everyone you
talk to. That's that's crazy. On the other hand, he
(07:11):
has spent way more time than any president because he's
so old hanging out at his house, and they've made
the argument, not a big deal, it's a working office
just like the White House. He's doing the same amount
of work at his home unwilling Bloomington and he's doing
at the White House. But you can't have it both ways.
It can't be. It's like it's just like another version
of the White House. You're getting the same amount of
(07:31):
work done, but we don't get to know who comes
and goes because it's your home. And I keep classified
stuff scattered around in the garage, locked next to my
locked corvette, and the corvette is locked up two but
on the mud room, on the kitchen counter with like
bills I need to pay, and catalogs I'm gonna flip
through eventually there all over the place. I'm come on,
(07:52):
you know that we gotta have rules and figure out
what the rules are and what should be classified, and
then people need to treat them the way they're supposed
to him and be punished when they're not, and all
that sort of stuff. But the the idea that the
gardener could have had access to that, whether you're talking
about Trump's place or Biden's place, what do you think
these gardeners or painters or whoever else They go through
(08:13):
every piece of file, folder of paper they see everywhere
all the time, hoping there'll be some national secret they
can sell to the South East or something. I mean it,
it's it's it's strange credulity. It does, it does, And
the two cases Trump and Biden are different in some
fundamental ways. But I just I there's a lot of
fast and loose going on right now. Can we just
(08:34):
follow the rules place. The most fundamental ways that that
it's different is that Trump resisted, you know, they ask
for them back and wouldn't give them back. So that
is the amount that is a red herring. Could say
Trump had three hundred Biden only has ten. Well, it
matters what they were. If Trump had three hundred menus
from the c i A, but Biden had ten pieces
(08:55):
of how to build an atomic bomb, the three does
not wait the ten. It depends on what the documents were. Well,
in the number of documents Biden has is growing by
the day, so let's not totally so. Speaking of the
value of things, I just saw this story about Tesla stock.
I don't know if you saw last week uh Tesla
(09:17):
lowered the price of their vehicles all around the world.
The stock has plummeted in the last year or so.
Prices and demands are down in Democrats are souring on
the brand Vanity Fair with an article Elon Musk's Twitter
takeover could be driving away Tesla buyers. So is Um,
(09:42):
one of my favorite pundits, pointed out, So it's not
about global warming, then, it's about whether or not you
like the guy who runs the car company. What or
not you're into electric cars? Interesting? Yeah, I saw Wilming.
It's not past yet. It's a proposal and y oming
in legislature to phase out all electric cars to protect
(10:08):
the contributions and history of myoming soil industry. So, and
they're talking about how building the infrastructure and the chargers
and everything will be so expensive. We need to phase
out electric cars, you know. I also I came across
a great article in not a conservative publication that was
(10:28):
pointing out that the whole move to electric cars is
brutally premature and almost certainly terrible for the environment. Don't
have time now, but it's it's it's undeniably true. And
I am one hundred percent agnostic on this question. I
am fine with electric cars. I'm fine with with gas
powered cars. Unicorn for powered cars, I don't care. I
(10:52):
don't see electric cars or big gas guzzlers as part
of my identity at all. I want a fish and transportation.
I want clean air, I want clean water. I could
not give a fly and flip what powers the cars, hydrogen, whatever.
But it's kind of interesting, isn't it that the only
electric car that moved the needle at all. If if
it weren't for Tesla, electric cars would still be a
zero as having an impact, and it barely has an
(11:14):
impact even with Tesla, but growing rapidly, though growing very rapidly.
I just saw the figures on the percentage of cars
sold in America that were electric cars, and it is
multiples of what it was to three years. True, yes,
it's still single digit. Yeah, it's gone from like one
percent to three percent, so it has gone by multiples,
but it's still very tiny. And like half all electric
cars are in California, so it's very very localized as
(11:38):
to where, you know, what parts of the country are
are doing this. But um, it's interesting that because you
your your perception is Elon Musk is a maga, You're
gonna turn on the the only electric car company that
has really done anything or actually has the infrastructure to
(11:59):
make it work, gonna turn on it and like ruin
the electric car industry because you're you think Elon Musk
likes Trump. So it's so cultis again. Is it because
of the you like the green planet? Or is it
about the politics of the person who owns the electric
car company? I find that kind of funny. Or are
you just an arrested adolescent case it goes with whatever
fad your friends say you ought to. I do think
(12:21):
because that one, By the way, that's the answer. I
do think that because Ellen has turned off all rich liberals,
the car that I drive is gonna be worth nothing
by the time I've done using it. Oh what are
you gonna do? I didn't sell it to rich Montanon's.
I didn't know Ellen was gonna buy Twitter. I should
have thought I had. Carol Baskin and what would appear
to be a desperate plea to remain slightly relevant, killed
(12:44):
her husband, whacked him. Can't convince me that it didn't happen,
Carol Baskin, She is out and about claiming that her
husband has indeed been found and that he's alive and well.
And uh, yes, go ahead, Carol Basket killed her husband, whacked.
(13:08):
Convinced me that it didn't happen, Then I'm to tigers.
They sack it. What's happened, Carol Basket? If you didn't
want Tiger King. You don't have any idea who she is,
I guess, but whatever, well you had to be dimly aware. Anyway,
the the sheriff who is still pursuing the increasing the
(13:28):
cold case of the disappearance of the uh tiger food
gentleman has said, yeah, that's news to me. He hasn't
been found. Oh boy, So she just wanted to say,
I read the story when I saw the headline. So
it worked. It got a click and uh and she
uh re emerged in my mind. So maybe she sells
another T shirt or something. I don't know, who knows
what whackadoodle tree she has in mind, But anyway, that's
(13:51):
just that strong. And we decided to call this the
best weekend talk show in America. And if you like it,
