Alec Baldwin posts his account of a strange auto accident he was involved in while driving his wife's vehicle with brother Stephen as a passenger. Newsmax obtains dashcam footage from a garbage truck the veteran actor describes as being the size of a whale, and it appears Baldwin was not paying attention and had to veer to avoid rear-ending the truck before crashing into a tree.

Breaking during the program, the Supreme Court of the United States denied certiorari for Jonathan Lee, et al v. Poudre School District R-1. Justice Samuel Alito explains a concurring opinion by stating his concerns with the issues at hand regarding schools inserting themselves between parents and students, and concealing information about a student's gender identity from parents.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
I don't even know where to begin today, but there
is a treasure trove of gold. I feel like Jack Sparrow,
Captain Jack Sparrow been Pirates of the Caribbean.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Or is it Caribbean? I think it's Caribbean.

Speaker 1 (00:16):
You could text the show at any time throughout today's
program five seven, seven, three nine. And I'm not just
punching because I filled in for Michael Brown this morning
and had to be reminded of that by one dragon.
Redbeard still had fun, but thought I was filling in
tomorrow and not today. But today, actually, I think worked
out better because you know your clock, You're kind of

(00:37):
still on Eastern time. I'm flying to Detroit to spend
the weekend in Michigan, so I'm two hours ahead.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
I come back, I get those two hours back.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
But then the very next day I got to come
in to the studio here, but six o'clock feels more
like eight am because I was just there for a
few days. So I guess it turned out okay. We
had a lot of fun on that program. You might
recall the cycle of laughter that I edited with the
laugh of Kamala Harris, then Vice President of the United States,

(01:09):
from a sit down interview with Nora O'Donnell on sixty minutes,
who was supposed to be serious, but there was laughter.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
Because Kamala Harris is about joy.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
And I interspersed that because the cadence of the laughter
syncopatient right four five with.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
The laugh of the joker. He had that kind.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
Of laugh button Jack Nicholson in the nineteen eighty nine
version of Batman, and it had this laugh on it
that just matched up perfectly with the cadence and rhythm
of Kamala Harris's laugh. And I'll play that in a
little while to give you a refresher course. We had
listeners texting the program this morning wanting me to email

(01:55):
that to them as kind of a Halloween themed thing,
and you could use it maybe as part of a
haunted house. It would certainly work in that regard. You
could put it on a loop, just keep playing it,
you know, as trick or treaders come to your door,
they're going to brave the Kamala Harris laughter along with
the joker. Don't know, maybe not got to earn that

(02:15):
candy though, or and one of the texters.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
Came up with this idea.

Speaker 1 (02:20):
You could use it as your ring tone just for Halloween,
maybe longer, I don't know, but it's very annoying. And
if you want to really tick off your coworkers, that
would be a golden way to do it again. Five
seven seven three nine the number to text the program
let me see here. Oh okay, this is a kind
of a bridge text. I would call it. Donna, you

(02:43):
sent an email from this morning that I'm going to honor,
and I am going to send you that laugh track
that I'll get to in just a few moments. But
this Texter said, I'm listening to you on Michael Brown's
podcast show from this morning in that you said something
to the effect that the Jews are the first test
meant the Christians are the second, and the Mormons are
the third. Fascinating, by the way, I like it. My

(03:05):
head snapped around when I heard Deneche Desuza apologies if
I misspelled his name call out the Holy Trinity. I
find the potential connection intriguing, especially keeping in mind you
were all talking about the Dragon's prophecy and the end times.
Weirdly coincidental. Not sure, I don't believe in coincidences. Maybe
it was irony, but Texter, yeah, That was my point

(03:26):
early this morning, kind of the layman's explanation for those
that are not overly religious in any of the Christian
faith Judeo Christian historical faiths, but that the Old Testament
was like Star Wars.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
So that's the episode.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
Four, but the first that came out on film, and
that Christianity, traditional Catholic, Protestant Christianity was Empire Strikes Back,
and that would be the sequel. But that the Jewish people,
they don't they didn't like the sequel. They like the original,
so they stick stuck with the original, and that's okay, okay,
And then that the third Return of the Jedi. I

(04:03):
think most people would say that in the canon of
those three and perhaps all of the Star Wars films,
that Empire Strikes Back is superior to any of them.
That's my feeling. Maybe you share that, but that the
Book of Mormon would be Return of the Jedi. They
believe in a third book. So the Mormon Church, the
Church of Latter day Saints, believes in the Old Testament,

(04:24):
believes in the New Testament, believes that Jesus Christ is
the Savior, and they add to it the Book of
Mormon of course, Joseph Smith was the prophet, and there's
the Golden Scrolls, as I recall, and I'm not Mormon,
so I'm just kind of going on a sketch here,
but offering that simplified explanation.

Speaker 2 (04:42):
And I guess this is a nice little segue.

Speaker 1 (04:45):
As well for the South Park guys, because they have
a very successful Broadway show called Book of Mormon, and
it's great because it pokes gentle fun I think at
Mormon's but it's not cruel, and it's it's not angry,
and it's not mean spirited at all. In fact, both

(05:05):
the South Park guys, Trey Parker Matt Stone, who of
course are from right here in Colorado, and they run
Casa Benita, the Mexican restaurant that I thought was fictitious,
that Cartman.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
Was making it up. It was just part of the
South Park universe.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
No, it really existed here in Colorado, much to my delight,
and I have a chance to visit since it's been
refurbished by those guys, and it's a lot of fun.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
It's a fun time. The soap apeas is still great.
Cartman loved them, you will too, and the menu is
much improved. For certain.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
But they had this play called Book of Mormon, and
many of you may have seen it, and it was terrific.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
It had fun, it poked fun.

Speaker 1 (05:45):
I think Mormons in general have a good sense of
humor about themselves, which is great.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
It's refreshing, it's nice.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
And they said that the Mormons they knew growing up
in Colorado were some of the nicest people they knew,
just very genuinely nice people.

Speaker 2 (05:59):
Well, they also did a film.

Speaker 1 (06:02):
Called Team America World Police, and you got to be
careful with this one because there's a lot of swear words.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
It's R rated.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
It's very R rated, and in fact, one of the
versions is extremely R rated, and they cut down one
of the scenes. I won't give it away, although if
you haven't seen it by now, where have you been.
I was just talking to Rob Dawson about this in
the Kowa newsroom.

Speaker 2 (06:21):
This movie came out more than twenty years ago.

Speaker 1 (06:23):
Now, and it takes place in just post nine to
eleven America, and I think it provided a beat of
breath and a comic relief to a very turbulent and
horrifying time in our history nine to eleven.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
But that they kind of did the same thing.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
They characterized the American military as trying to do good,
trying to help the world out, but maybe go a
little too far in a lot of instances, and there's
some kind of slapstick comedy along those lines. It's also
created in a world of puppets of Marionette's, you know,
string operated puppets.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
And the villain in this film is Kim Jong Un.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
It was originally supposed to be Saddam Hussein, and they've
made fun of Saddam Hussein over the years, going back
more than twenty years now that he had a homosexual
relationship with Satan. This is something that's been recreated in
recent episodes with Donald Trump that bothers me about. They
were so called South Park Libertarians because both Matt and
Trey had a good common sense approach to their comedy.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
They make fun of anybody.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
They made fun especially of liberal celebrities like Barbara Streisan,
and in this film, a whole bunch of them, like
Sean Penn, Janine Garoffalo, and most notably Alec Baldwin. And
that brings us to today. Kim Jong Un got really
frustrated in this film. In the context of this fictional
account Kim Jong Un got really frustrated with Alec Baldwin,

(07:54):
and so he took matters into his own hands. And
if you stay long enough, if you watch long enough
on the film Team America World Police, and I highly
recommend that you do watch it, that's your homework assignment
for tonight.

Speaker 2 (08:05):
There's a song in the end credits, and I.

Speaker 1 (08:07):
Edited a portion of that here because it will lead
into our discussion about today's events involving Alec Baldwin.

Speaker 2 (08:14):
Yes, he's back in the news. No, it's not good.

Speaker 1 (08:17):
Again, it's not quite rust level bad, but it's not good.
And here's that song from Team America World Police.

Speaker 3 (08:25):
You are wor for Sawick Bowen. You are work for
Sareg Bowing. You felled in every way and now my
stocking you has following your career is Starwing and your
work for Sareg Bowen. That's why I blew your head off.
And your children are all borrowing. Pranageyron is inhabited with Zipods,
rag Me, but also with Bamax, who are giant bees.

(08:50):
The Zipods and the Bomax are at constant whoa. So
we wanted a new home and that's what Earth was foh,
but you wor for sawick Bowen. You are Whorper's sawick Bowen.
You've sucked up my whole pran and now Giron is
smeared with baumac Powen. Your garbage needs some howin and
your Whorper's awick Bowen. Now I must return home of failure.

(09:14):
I'm afraid the Pit of cry.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
Rock is calling now.

Speaker 1 (09:22):
Just to fill in the gaps there a little bit
Kim jong ouin it turns out spoiler alert, but watch
the movie and why haven't you you've missed out is
an intergalactic insect of some kind going back to his
home planet.

Speaker 2 (09:33):
So that's what you need to know at the end
of this film.

Speaker 1 (09:36):
Now, I play this in good fun because I want
you to hear this first from Alec Baldwin.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
I want you to make up your own mind about
what happened.

Speaker 1 (09:46):
His brother Stephen with him in the vehicle, not his vehicle,
not Steven's vehicle, not Alex's vehicle, it's his wife's vehicle,
and he encounters a garbage truck. Now that's the part
of the story that we can all agree upon. Stephen,
by the way, I believe, is one of us politically
big Trump supporter and a born again Christian Alec Baldwin

(10:09):
very much not those things in any regard.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
This was Alec Baldwin.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
I believe he posted this to Instagram and he gives
his account of the incident, the car accident, and then
he trails off into some weird homage to his wife.

Speaker 2 (10:25):
Here's that.

Speaker 4 (10:25):
But this morning I was in this car accident. Guy
cut me off in a truck. Big garbage truck. I
mean a garbage truck the size of a whale. I've
never seen a garbage truck. It must have been something
commercial for taking away.

Speaker 2 (10:36):
The size of a whale material from.

Speaker 4 (10:38):
Construction or something. It was the biggest garbage truck I've
ever seen any Anyway, I won't go into the details now.

Speaker 2 (10:44):
I'm for you.

Speaker 4 (10:44):
But I went to avoid hitting him.

Speaker 2 (10:46):
I hit a tree.

Speaker 4 (10:48):
I had a big fat tree, okay, and crushed my car,
my wife's car.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
Oh, I crushed my wife's car.

Speaker 4 (10:55):
Best all fine and I'm fine, and my brother's fine
and puppy Pop. Congratulations everybody on the film festival. Thank
you to the Easthampton Police Department of the Town Police
Department for coming to my aid. They came in to
be filed to report with them. Officer Girkin, this is
his name, g E.

Speaker 1 (11:12):
R k E.

Speaker 4 (11:14):
A lovely guy. And there was another general that I
didn't get his name, but Officer Girkin from the East
Hampton Police Department as nice as can be, and his
pusiness can be about the whole thing. And my wife's
car is pretty smashed up. Big tree, big fat trade.

Speaker 5 (11:32):
And okay, I'm going to La to see my family.
Can't wait coming out to California to gather my family together.
I spent a few days out there and then come home.
And I'm still so proud of my wife. Hey, Laria,

(11:53):
I love.

Speaker 4 (11:53):
You more than anything, and I'm very proud of it.

Speaker 2 (11:55):
Okay, I'm fine.

Speaker 4 (11:57):
I'm fine. Other than.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
Other than He points to his head like he's crazy,
which may in fact be true. Now, Alaria, I think
her name is the wife. If you might recall, this
woman pretended to have a Spanish accent. And I'm not
talking about Hispanic Mexican accent. I'm talking about red ships
of Spain, like the old Will Ferrell sketch from SNL.

(12:23):
She pretended to be from Spain and have a Spanish accent.
I think for years and then she was called out
on it, and then she admitted to faking it. Who
are these people? Where do they come from? What is
wrong with these people? Well you heard Alec Baldwin's account. There,

(12:43):
biggest garbage truck he's ever seen, size of a whale.
This is like Moby Dick and he's like Captain Ahab.
But Newsbacks obtained a copy of the dash cam video
from the garbage truck in question. Now you'll have to
go watch that because well this is radio and it's
audio only, but you'll hear the description of it. And

(13:05):
what I will add is what it shows the garbage
truck makes a legal turn. I don't think the garbage
truck did anything wrong here or was crowding Baldwin's vehicle.
And what you'll see is as the garbage truck comes
to a stop, what does the garbage truck do you
watch that on its routes it's driving, it's got its
lights on, it says don't follow so closely. It's got

(13:25):
usually signs in the back because it makes frequent stops.
And it pulls up to this house on the side
of the road right by where the garbage cans would
be and then Alec Baldwin's operated vehicle goes veering around
to the right.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
So imagine this.

Speaker 1 (13:43):
Garbage truck is going down like a two lane highway
road and pulls over. Well Baldwin, in my estimation this
is a guess, but I think it's a correct one
didn't see the garbage truck pulling over, realized it too late.
Rather than crash into the back, he veers to the right,
not an oncoming traffic. So he could have gone could

(14:05):
have been one of three things, and none of them
are good. And I actually have the three things. He
probably did the right thing under the circumstances, the least
bad of the three options. One you steer an oncoming traffic,
you can't see around the garbage truck, You get a
head on collision.

Speaker 2 (14:17):
You die.

Speaker 1 (14:18):
Two, you rear in the garbage truck, and in any vehicle,
most any vehicle, you're going to lose that battle and
total the car. You might you know, have your head
snap and get in a really bad accident in terms
of injuries. Instead, he veers to the right, so he
goes careening off into the ditch I think, mows over

(14:40):
a mailbox and crashes into a tree, and that that
part's true.

Speaker 2 (14:44):
He said he.

Speaker 1 (14:45):
Crashed in the tree, but he made it sound like
the garbage truck was at fault here it was not.
And I believe that officer gurk and funny that he
not only remember the name of the officer, but how
he spelled his last name. He's some bizarre descriptions being
offered up by Alec Baldwin. Here is the Newsmax report
in the aftermath of the accident and of Alec Baldwin's

(15:08):
explanation of it.

Speaker 6 (15:09):
Just obtained exclusive dash cam video showing the moment actor
Alec Baldwin crashed his SUV on the east end of
New York's Long Island. The video is from the front
facing camera on a commercial truck. You're seeing the truck
here making what's believed to be a legal right turn,
and then it slows down.

Speaker 7 (15:28):
Seconds later, Baldwin's SCUV is seen hitting a mailbox and
a tree off to the right side of the truck.
The actor and outspoken Trump hater, claimed on social media
that he was driving his wife's Range Rover with his brother,
Stephen Baldwin in the passenger seat. He said he was
trying to avoid hitting this truck, so he veered off
the road into the tree. Does not appear though that

(15:50):
anyone was injured in the crash, but obviously not Baldwin's
first encounter with police. Now the questions was he trying
to squeeze around the truck? Was he not paying attention
and see the truck until the last second. But great
video there to show at least the moment that it
all happened.

Speaker 6 (16:05):
Our special guests are here with us in studio. Nan Hayworth,
former New York congress woman, board member of the Independent
Women's Forum, and Rob Towb Newsmax columnists. Welcome back to
you both. Apparently, Baldwin went on Instagram and he said.

Speaker 2 (16:16):
That he crushed his wife's car.

Speaker 6 (16:18):
Feels bad about it, but it's all fine. I'm fine,
My brother's fine, saying Hilaria, I love you more than
anything and I'm very proud of you.

Speaker 2 (16:28):
Was that him just trying to kind of smooth things over.

Speaker 1 (16:31):
You know, you crash your wife's vehicle, it's totaled, have
enough money. I'm sure he'll be able to compensate or
for buyer new car, whatever, But you know, in the moment,
it's very inconvenient, rather unexpected, not pleasant.

Speaker 2 (16:44):
So it brings to mind.

Speaker 1 (16:45):
The question of have you ever crashed your spouse's vehicle
and then had to tell them? And would you paper
over it by offering up platitudes in a video that
you posted online. Maybe that works for Alec Baldwin, but
I'm not so sure that it worked yes for the
regular person out here, and you know, he and his
wife whatever, I hope they're happy. I don't wish any

(17:06):
ill will upon Alec Baldwin. I don't like his Trump impression.
Neither does Daryl Hammond, who did a very good Donald
trumpet himself. But I just found that entire episode pretty amusing.
And these things just keep happening to Alec Baldwin. He
doesn't have any agency in the universe. He's just floating
around like a molecule, like a particle in the wind.

(17:27):
And what happened on the rust set not his fault,
and you know didn't do it, And then you have
what happened here. The guy's got to get it together tomorrow.
Phrase from Jesse Waters, this text from Patty you can
send years along as well. Five seven seven thirty nine.
The South Park guys are from a very Mormon part
of Little to Patty that makes sense, and yet their
book of Mormon stage play is largely I feel like

(17:50):
a heartfelt tribute to the Mormons they grew up with.
And it's kind and it's funny. So it's a nice
combination of those two things, much nicer than what I'm
just going to play for you. And I made this
offer on the situation Michael brown fielding in this morning
and extended to all of you as well.

Speaker 2 (18:06):
Halloween is coming, you need something scary.

Speaker 1 (18:08):
Here we go back in the archives for my mix
between Kamala Harris her laugh scary as it is on
its own, and this is blended with the laugh scene
from The Joker at the very end of nineteen eighty
nine's Batman, when Jack Nicholson portraying the Joker.

Speaker 2 (18:25):
Falls to his death. You're welcome, America.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
And when we come back, breaking news from Aaron Lee
protect Kids Colorado on the case that she had before
the Supreme Court. We're also going to have a lot
of fun today, a lot of hot takes with Donald Trump.
We have some Bayue bits of wisdom from Senator John Kennedy,
and some based Fetterman to top it all off here
on Ryan Schuling Live. It's time once again for another

(19:25):
edition of Trump's hot takes, charting the forty seventh president's
epic interactions with a fake news media.

Speaker 2 (19:31):
We have a woman, a young woman who's uh.

Speaker 4 (19:34):
I'm not allowed to say it because usually.

Speaker 2 (19:36):
It's the end of your political career. Of you said,
she's a beautiful young woman. Now, if you use the
word beautiful in the.

Speaker 3 (19:41):
United States a better woman, that's the end of your
political career.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
But I'll take my chances.

Speaker 4 (19:47):
Worri she there, she is.

Speaker 2 (19:49):
You don't mind being.

Speaker 4 (19:49):
Called beautiful, right because you are.

Speaker 2 (19:52):
Thank you very much for coming. We appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (19:55):
President Trump in rare form and he deserves to take
a victory lab after the peace that he has achieved
in the Middle East, unprecedented in all of American history,
I believe. But the issue at hand, the topic there
was Georgia Maloney, And as many of you know, I'm
very fond of Georgia of Maloney, the leader of Italy.

(20:16):
She is tough, she's tenacious, she is a traditional conservative.
She has brought that kind of Javier Melay Donald Trump
swagger into her office. She has taken Italy in a
very positive direction. And I agree with Donald Trump's assessment
that she is beautiful, but is it appropriate for him

(20:37):
to comment on that in modern times you're twenty twenty
five of our lord, it's a slippery slope. Now he's
President Trump, and that's a different level altogether, And she
seemed to be perfectly fine with it. I think there's
a couple of things you got to keep in mind
here for me personally, how I choose to conduct my business, Like,
for instance, I just saw Denise plant Is, one of

(21:00):
our stars on the FMS on the third Level, and
I told her how much I admired the dress she
was wearing. The outfit she was wearing was really snappy.
That's one of my favorite terms.

Speaker 2 (21:10):
And I felt that was appropriate because that was a
choice that Denise made.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
So I'm not commenting on some immutable characteristics that Denise
has that makes her beautiful or that she's beautiful. I
don't go that far because if you feel that's inappropriate,
because I always check myself at would I say the
same thing to a guy to a male coworker, and
that the answers no, then I don't say it.

Speaker 2 (21:36):
Also, this one I struggle with my dad on.

Speaker 1 (21:41):
He comes from an old school baby boomer generation where
when he meets a female could be somebody who knows,
and in some unfortunate circumstances, it's one that he doesn't
know very well.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
He goes in to.

Speaker 1 (21:55):
Like kiss this woman on the lips, and I'm like, no, no, no, Dad,
you can't do that.

Speaker 2 (21:59):
He gets a little ad what are you talking about? Right?
You know? I don't mean.

Speaker 1 (22:03):
Anything by it. I'm like, well, they might know that,
but then again they might not know that. And even
if they do know that, Dan, you just can't do that,
you know, because again I try to walk him through this,
if would you do this with a guy with your brother,
my uncle Dave, Well no, but then you can't do it, man,
and it bums him out. I get it, but I

(22:25):
think you got to kind of keep yourself on the
straight and narrow when it comes to stuff like this. Now,
if you're in our listening audience, particularly if you're female,
and you wouldn't mind if President Trump said you're beautiful,
I shouldn't say it, and it's usually the end of
your political career if you do.

Speaker 2 (22:40):
But I'm gonna take my chances you.

Speaker 1 (22:42):
A beautiful, Like if Petty Patty heard that or would
a reaction be Now, you might welcome that, but you
got it. There's two things I think that are in
play here. One, you got to know your subject. And
even so, if it's in a work setting, don't do it.
Just err on the side, don't do it.

Speaker 2 (22:56):
Do not do it.

Speaker 1 (22:58):
And even if it's a work set or like a
work outing, so you're at a ballgame or something, or
you meet up and there's a Christmas you know, gathering,
holiday gathering, and there's alcohol involvement, you gotta be careful
those holiday parties, you know, lampshade on the head, that
sort of thing. Don't want to get into trouble. Don't
want to have it turn into something that you didn't

(23:19):
intend it to be. And in some cases, guys do
intended to be something. And maybe you can go the
other way. Now, one of my coworkers, and I'll protect
her name to protect the innocent, but I love her.
I mean, she's great, and she commented kind of on
my appearance or something, and then she thought better of
it and came back and apologized. You don't have don't

(23:41):
worry about it now. For me, I think it's different
as a guy fielding that kind of comment from a woman.

Speaker 2 (23:47):
It doesn't bother me. In fact, I appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (23:49):
That's fine, that's fine, But I understand that it can
make a woman uncomfortable, especially in the workplace where she
wants to be judged on her marriage, the job that
she's doing and doesn't want that to enter into the equation,
whether it's at work or at a workouting. You know,
just err on the side of I wouldn't say it
to a guy. I wouldn't do that to a guy,
then don't do that with a woman.

Speaker 2 (24:09):
Now. For instance, like Rob Dawson might be wearing a.

Speaker 1 (24:11):
Nice like Yankees Paula be like sharp sharp Polo, you're
wearing there rab good job, you know, something like that,
and that would be the equivalent of me complimenting Denise
on her dress.

Speaker 2 (24:21):
That's it.

Speaker 1 (24:22):
But just you better off not saying anything at all.
But you know that's not in my nature. So I
want to be friendly, and I want to be complimentary
and positive and reaffirm our my co workers and kind
of cheer them on that sort of thing. But just
how you feel about that five seven, seven thirty nine.
I want to hear from you. Another text from petty
Patty here, very petty here. Sorry, not sorry, petty Patty

(24:44):
is how it's signed seems bald when hitting the tree
isn't a very good aim.

Speaker 2 (24:49):
Oh that's harsh. Yeah, that's a rust reference.

Speaker 1 (24:53):
I think it may have been a good thing that
he wasn't writing shotgun Oh.

Speaker 2 (24:59):
Too soon.

Speaker 1 (24:59):
Nope, that's perfectly fine and in play.

Speaker 2 (25:04):
Having some good times here.

Speaker 1 (25:05):
Got I got five different Trump's hot takes today. I
won't be able to get to all them. I apologize
in advance, but we'll get to some more of them tomorrow.
Also have some based Fetterman, also have some value bits
with Senator John Kennedy.

Speaker 2 (25:17):
But a serious matter here.

Speaker 1 (25:18):
And I've been texting back and forth with our good
friend Aaron Lee, and this is a setback. There's no
two ways about it in the consideration of Jonathan Lee
at all the Powoter School District. We've been talking about
this case both with Aaron and then I was talking
about how important it was. The petition for a writ
of circiari is denied. This was decided earlier today. Statement

(25:41):
of Justice Alito, with whom Justice Thomas and Justice Gorsuch
join respecting the denial of cir Cerai, meaning they would
take up the case and it would be heard before
the Supreme Court of the United States. So obviously those
are three justices that we are very fond of, in
particular Alito and Thomas for me, and I like Gorsach
a lot too. Kavanaugh, Barrett Jerry still out unintended a

(26:07):
little bit. So this is Alito, and he says the
following in this concurrence with the majority decision, I concur
in the denial of Circiari because petitioners do not challenge
the ground for the ruling below. But I remain concerned
that some federal courts are quote tempted unquote to avoid

(26:27):
confronting a quote particularly contentious constitutional question unquote whether a
school district violates parents' fundamental rights quote when without parental
knowledge or consent, it encourages a student to transition to
a new gender or assists in that process. And that's
from parents protecting our children. UA v au Claire Area

(26:50):
School District. Alito continues in the denial of Circherai. Here,
petitioners tell us that nearly six thousand public schools have
policies as respondent allegedly does that purposefully interfere with parents'
access to critical information about their children's gender identity choices

(27:13):
and school personnel's involvement in and influence on those choices.
The troubling and tragic allegations in this case underscore the
quote great and growing national importance unquote of the question
that these parent petitioners present. So the case will not
be heard before the Supreme Court. That is a setback.

(27:33):
But as I encouraged Aaron, this battle does not stop there.
This is fundamentally wrong that any school would insert itself
between parents and their children, and a matter of such
importance from a medical standpoint, whether or not a child
will enter the process and go down the road of
permanently reassigning themselves to a gender that they will never

(27:56):
be physically, physiologically, biologically, you cannot become the opposite gender.

Speaker 2 (28:03):
It is not possible.

Speaker 1 (28:06):
I was born with a set of organs, male organs,
y chromosomal organs. I will never have a uterus or
any of the female equipment that goes with it. None
of it not possible, cannot happen no matter what I do.

Speaker 2 (28:18):
I'm a man.

Speaker 1 (28:20):
So my first step in a child experiencing gender dysphor
It would always be the default position of let's talk
through this, let's be sensitive to it, let's get you
to a therapist that will be open minded but not
force you in a particular direction.

Speaker 2 (28:37):
But the default position would be you're going through a
tough time. You are the sex that you were born as.

Speaker 1 (28:45):
You may later in life choose to present differently and
live your life however you want as an adult, but
as a child, we are not going to put you
on a road or a path to destruction in the
form of gender reassignment surgery, chop off body parts of
healthy children, physically healthy children, giving them permanent disfigurement, giving

(29:07):
them permanent medical.

Speaker 2 (29:09):
Needs, hormone blockers.

Speaker 1 (29:15):
You have this therapy, so called gender affirming therapy, that
is anything but that it makes them permanent patience for
big pharma.

Speaker 2 (29:25):
This is not a way of life.

Speaker 1 (29:26):
In fact, there are so many there's such a large
percentage of people who detransition, who regret their choice. If
this was so affirming, if this was such a positive,
there would be close to zero of those cases.

Speaker 2 (29:38):
But there are many of those cases.

Speaker 1 (29:40):
And once done, gender reassignment surgery cannot be undone.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
Why would you do that to a child.

Speaker 1 (29:47):
Why would you Transhausen by proxy force them into that decision?
Why would you even want that? What's wrong with you?
Maybe I say this all the time. Maybe they're just
gay and that's okay. So miss me with the whole
conversion therapy crap like Phil Wiser tried to do, conflating

(30:08):
that with pray the gay away and shock therapy, these
sorts of things.

Speaker 2 (30:13):
You know, I believe inherently.

Speaker 1 (30:15):
A person is born a certain way, gay, not gay,
maybe some shade of gray in between. There are people
that believe, and it's a psychological thing that they would
be more comfortable as the opposite gender. But that process
cannot be inflicted and I use that term intentionally upon children.

(30:37):
Children must be protected from adults who would prey upon them,
and children must be protected from themselves because they're children
and they're not adults. They don't have the capacity cognitively
to make these decisions for themselves. Otherwise, we would allow
them to vote, We would allow them to smoke cigarettes,
we would allow them to drink alcohol, we would allow

(30:58):
them to get tattoos.

Speaker 2 (30:59):
But we don't allow them to do that.

Speaker 1 (31:01):
Why not because their kids and they're dumb, and they
don't know any better, and they don't understand the consequences,
their implications of their actions. In many cases, especially one
is permanent, as this so very disappointing that the Supreme
Court of the United States will not be taking up
this case, but it will not be the last. And
I think what Justice Alito does in that opinion that

(31:23):
he expresses is he leaves the door open to future cases,
perhaps on a different basis, different set of circumstances, different
set of facts. But he's not comfortable with what's going
on right now in America's schools, and neither am I
And I know Aaron Lee is an either, and I
know a lot of you listeners aren't either. We'll take
this break, come back, give you some based fetterman, why
not on this Tuesday edition of Ryan Schuling Life and

(31:49):
now everybody's favorite Democratic Congress with another edition of based fettermen.

Speaker 8 (32:01):
Absolute elation. I mean, how can we all celebrate this thing?
I mean, you've had human beings held underground for over
two years and tortured and beaten and starved, forced to
dig their own graves and things. Now they can finally
come back home. And now everyone, everyone should be celebrating

(32:21):
these things, and clearly the Palestinians are, and people at
Israel are too. And now there are people in our nation,
you know, some of those aren't really celebrating or even
acknowledging a thing. And that's part of the truth there too.
It really was never about about peace. It was more
about an anti Israel agenda. And now why can't we

(32:43):
all whatever where you are politically, this is a huge development,
and this terrible, awful war is going to come to
an end, and now you can rebuild Gaza and these
families are now reunited. Now like that's a big thing
and a strange it's.

Speaker 2 (33:01):
Just strange time.

Speaker 8 (33:02):
If you can't celebrate this.

Speaker 1 (33:04):
It is a strange time if you can't celebrate the
freeing of the Israeli hostages at the hands of Amas.

Speaker 2 (33:10):
Twenty of them alive, all of the men, none of
them women.

Speaker 1 (33:14):
I feel that bears repeating as to why it would
be twenty men and zero women left alive.

Speaker 2 (33:21):
But John Fetterman, you know, I don't.

Speaker 1 (33:23):
Believe never say never, right, But I'll ever vote for
a Democrat ever again. I just don't think it's possible.
They left me behind, and I'm just on the enemy.
I am a single heterosexual, white Christian male with conservative
leanings out Daniel, I am the worst.

Speaker 2 (33:44):
I'm the worst.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
But if John Fetterman were to win his next Senate race,
I wouldn't be too broken up about it. He is
one Democrat one that it wouldn't bother me so much
if he won, because he's a good person. And I
will say that about political adversaries, unlike those on the
left that look over.

Speaker 2 (34:05):
At the right. I was saying that throughout when Robert F.

Speaker 1 (34:09):
Kennedy Junior was running for president on the independent platform
and a lot of conservatives. I won't mention any names,
but his initials are. Sean Hannity on Fox News was
going in on RFK Junior.

Speaker 2 (34:23):
I didn't like that.

Speaker 1 (34:24):
I didn't agree with it because I saw the big
picture and I saw potentially what might be a mighty alliance,
and it was forged by Charlie Kirk. Today is his
thirty second birthday. I have a sweatshirt that I bought
from Turning Point USA online and President Trump right now
at the White House is presenting Charlie Kirk in his

(34:45):
death with the Congressional Medal of Honor and we'll have
that next
