Speaker 1 (00:00):
Okay, Michael, I used to be an amateur fighter.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
I used to show people my left hand a lot
before i'd hit them with my right. And I'm pretty
sure that's kind of what Trump is doing with this
burning there the American flag executive order, and that's probably
what you're trying to say, but I'm kind of stupid
and slow on the uptake. Thanks.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Well, then you fit right in with me, dragging in
the rest of the goobers.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
And the first step is admitting it.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
That's right, and we both admit we're just dumber in
the box of rocks. During the break, I received an email,
and I'm not going to give this person the satisfaction
of saying their name on air, because I just I
don't want them getting credit for this. But they accused me.
You saw it too, drying of sexism, absolute sexism when
(00:53):
it comes to climate change. We don't care about the
intersectionality of climate change and women, and they they sent
me evidence that it exists. So before I get to
the next story I wanted to get to, I just
(01:14):
wanted to admit that I've listened to. It's ninety seconds long.
I listened to about the first I would say twenty
seconds of it. During the break, it appears to be
some sort of testimony from a birthing person. I would
(01:34):
normally say women because it looks like a female, but
I don't know, so I'm trying to be politically correct.
It's a all inclusive, that's right, all inclusive here, and
well just listen for yourselves.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
I want to start off by addressing one of the
comments that was made by the witnesses around climate hysterics.
Steric's hysteria. It refers to something that is wildly emotional.
It comes from the Greek word.
Speaker 5 (02:08):
Womb of the womb.
Speaker 4 (02:10):
It is used in ancient Greek to refer to things
associated with women.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
That's that's that's at the twenty five second mark, and
that's where I stopped because I don't think she understands
what she just said. The definition of hysteric hysterics a
wildly emotional, an exaggerated reaction, uncontrollable laughter, or as again
(02:43):
as a noun, a person suffering from hysteria, agity relating
to or affected with hysteria. It's a mid seventeenth century
as an agitive via a Latin from the Greek hystoricos
of the womb, as she says, from hysteria womb hysteria
being thought to be specific to women and associated with
(03:09):
the womb. So this woman birthing person is defining hysteria,
which I don't necessarily. I think of someone who is
hysterical hysteria as being a pejority. It's not a good agity.
(03:34):
Dragon sometimes gets hysteric over things I never do. I
always remain calm, cool and collected about everything, just like
I was this morning in our pre production meeting over
that email. How I was calm and.
Speaker 6 (03:47):
Cool about it, right right, right, right right us.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Hysteria is not a word that we normally try to
say around here, because well, we is hysteria.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
I want to start off by addressing one of the
comments that was made by the witnesses around climate hysterics.
Hysterics hysteria it refers to something that is wildly emotional.
It comes from the Greek word.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Womb of the womb.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
It is used in ancient Greek to refer to things
associated with women, and I think, I hope you'll forgive
me if I get emotional. Climate emergencies are not gender neutral.
The degradation of ecosystems disproportionately impacts women and girls.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Degradation of ecosystems disproportionately affects women and girls. Quinn, what
about birthing persons, but namely men and girls, she.
Speaker 4 (04:53):
Continues, and I am wildly emotional. This is the existential
crisis of our time, climate change.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
This poor woman, she is hysterical, and she's out of
her mind. She's crazy.
Speaker 7 (05:16):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
This is the existential crisis of our time, m naturally
occurring climate change, the we're all going to die existential.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
And to hear that asking for high ambition is climate hysteria.
Speaker 5 (05:39):
That makes me wildly emotional.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Absolutely.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
You know, when I think about my womb, you know,
the two children that I bore from that womb, and
what future we are leaving them, I am wildly emotional.
And it's not surprising to hear this from someone who
has written articles that are for life. I think that
(06:03):
we need to think about the intersection of gender and
the climate crisis, and I hope that the people around
this table and the people listening will refrain from using
language like climate hysteria. We are facing a climate emergency.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Some of the comments are pretty funny. Climate hysteria is
like an iceberg. The hysteria is the part above the
water line, and Marxism is below the water line. This
comes to us from the Bureau of Imaginary Problems, the
Climate Change Division. Midnight writer posted Roman title Baths on
(06:52):
the Malta still at sea level after thousands of years,
but climate change is about to kill us, right and
it's a photograph of the Malta. Title Baths on the Malta.
Someone has a definition for a word called clima hard
(07:14):
a person that bleeds. The climate can be changed by
paying a COE two tax to the government. You know,
I might believe that lives. A TikTok has a response. Now,
I'm not gonna use that one. Here they've been crying
wolf for a very long time. From nineteen twelve. A
(07:35):
screenshot of a newspaper article cold consumption affecting climate. The
furnaces of the world are now burning about two trillion
tons of coal a year. When this is burned uniting
with oxygen, it adds about seven trillion tons of carbon
dioxide to the atmosphere yearly. This tends to make the
air a more effective blanket for the Earth and to
(07:57):
raise its temperature. The effect may be conceived in a
few centuries, and I think the best one of all
was allow me to criticize the use of the word
hysterical and now allow me im me to get hysterical
(08:18):
about climate change, and hysterical being its etymology shows us
that it comes from the womb and is basically attributable
to women. It's not me saying that, that's what the
woman is saying. She says she's a woman, she's given
birth to two children, and she fears for their future,
(08:40):
and she is indeed hysterical, absolutely hysterical. This is a sickness,
This is a real disease. And that's all I got
to say about that. I do want to go to
a story that well, the same individuals sent to me,
which I had not heard. I told you before that
(09:02):
my bugaboo with King Soopers, which is our local one
of our local grocery store chains, is that when I
go to that grocery store and I'm doing the self checkout,
which is primarily your main choice now because there are few,
if any checkers to check you out, and there are
(09:23):
virtually no baggers to bag your groceries, so you kind
of get forced into the self checkout. The last time
I used self checkout one day last week. I had
four items and my little University Chicago Institute of Politics
canvas bag to put them in because I happened to
(09:44):
remember to take it in, And when I pulled it
out of my cart to put it under my arm
so I could go over and start putting it in
the bags, suddenly the machine froze up and self help
is on the way, and some people faced kid came
over and reset the machine. As he approaches that I
don't need help, but the machine's frozen up, and he goes,
oh no, they think you're stealing something. Really, and he
(10:07):
again points to the camera over my head, and I'm like,
you know what. I'm to the point where I will
go stand in line and have someone check me out
because I'm tired of being accused every time I go
and I pick up my bag that I take by
the way, where's our money going for the bag fee?
Where is that money? Tell me, tell me where's that
(10:29):
money going. Has it saved the climate yet? Have you
used that money to fill the budget hole? He marks
us out of the polop bureau? Or is it using
is it being used to introduce gray wolves?
Speaker 7 (10:39):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (10:40):
You know what? The latest one is dragging. There was
a story the other day two days ago about beavers. Yes,
are beavers good or bad? And should we allow farmers
and ranchers to blow up beaver dams or should we
be adding more beavers to the state. You all your
(11:01):
own conclusion. Courtesy of nine News, the local NBC affiliate.
Speaker 7 (11:11):
You can get that angry.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
It's a freaking receipt.
Speaker 8 (11:13):
Gilard Choppa says it was a change in duty that
was easy to spot.
Speaker 5 (11:17):
About a month ago. The security guard at her King Soupers.
Speaker 8 (11:20):
Near twenty ninth in Quebec used to watch customers coming in.
Speaker 7 (11:23):
How these security guards have their back to the entrance,
they have no idea who's coming in. They're just watching
customers as they buy their product.
Speaker 8 (11:31):
And the guard, adorned in a security vest, is now
checking every customer's receipt.
Speaker 7 (11:36):
Just doesn't make sense to have someone armed like that,
intimidating customers on their way out.
Speaker 5 (11:44):
It's not the idea of a receipt check that bugs her.
Speaker 7 (11:47):
Every time I go to Costco, that's an expectation. I
know that a staff member who I have seen at
this store for fifteen years is going to check my
purchase it's the person doing it. This guard looks like
us ready to go into a war zone. He's wearing
a bulletproof fist.
Speaker 5 (12:04):
I think it soonons still fear. Plenty of others have
voiced their concerns too.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
I don't think it's right to have to show my
receipt for the food and basic necessities to somebody that.
Speaker 8 (12:17):
Is armed, telling us and airing their grievances on the
new policy on social media.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Hell, no, I'm not showing you my receipt.
Speaker 9 (12:25):
Let me make it a little bit more clearf No,
I am not showing you my receipt.
Speaker 5 (12:29):
So why the change.
Speaker 8 (12:30):
We sent a series of questions to King Soupers, like
why are these receipt checks only in some of their.
Speaker 5 (12:35):
Stores not all of them? Are those security guards armed
with lethal weapons? Are all customers required to show a receipt?
Speaker 8 (12:43):
The company sent us a single paragraph, not answering some questions.
Speaker 5 (12:46):
They said, safety is and core value. Retail crime is
on the rise. They want to keep prices low.
Speaker 8 (12:51):
They've gotten positive feedback about the checks, and they've seen
theft reports go down.
Speaker 9 (12:56):
Each retailer is going to have to take the steps
that they feel are necessary to keep their staff and
their customers and all the products safe.
Speaker 8 (13:04):
Chris Houses, the president of the Colorado Retail Council, which
lobbies for stores across the.
Speaker 9 (13:08):
State, for the public to see retailers responding in kind.
It's unfortunate that has to go that way, but we've
seen people have their arms broken, some of the staff
in Colorado and one retailer or bear sprayed.
Speaker 5 (13:21):
He says, organized retail crime is nearly a billion dollar.
Speaker 8 (13:25):
Problem in Colorado, points to videos like this one from
a few years ago.
Speaker 9 (13:29):
I think every retailer is going to have a broad
spectrum of the difference of what they do at the
front of the store, and we'll see what happens.
Speaker 5 (13:37):
Enough to make Choppa change her routine.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
I'm not shopping here anymore. That's say it for me.
Speaker 5 (13:45):
So what does the law say about this?
Speaker 8 (13:47):
Setting up a receipt check perfectly legal, but simply not
showing a receipt likely isn't enough to detain a shopper.
The law says that stores need probable cause of stuff.
Speaker 5 (13:57):
Like you set off in a larm or you had.
Speaker 8 (13:59):
An employee bought you putting something in your pocket. We
went through one of those receipt checks and refused to
show our receipt the guard.
Speaker 5 (14:06):
Let us go on about our business.
Speaker 8 (14:08):
I'm Steve Staker, Steve on your Side nine News.
Speaker 6 (14:11):
But I mean we're used to it in places like Costco.
Speaker 8 (14:13):
Yeah, and you know there's a difference between Costco and
a grocery store, right Costco, you have a membership Sam's Club,
You have a membership, and if you go to the
membership terms, the agreements that you sign to be a
member at those stores, you say that you're okay with
them doing a receipt check when you leave the store,
and if you don't do it, you could likely lose
your membership privileges, your ability to go to Costco.
Speaker 5 (14:36):
You didn't sign a.
Speaker 8 (14:37):
Similar agreement when you go into a King Supers, but
they absolutely can ask for it. The question is you
don't really have to show it to them, but they
have certain rights to detain you if they think you're stolen.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
I just fear that this may lead to certain confrontations.
Speaker 8 (14:51):
Yeah, you know, and you look at the way that
some of these guards are dressed and you think maybe
it might lead to some confrontations. But again, the retail
consul says, there have been lots of conf frontations out
there and they say this is the kind of thing
that's necessary to combat that type of crime.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
And the stores they choose to do this in. That's
something we got to find out more from King Supers.
We're interested.
Speaker 8 (15:09):
Kings Soupers did say they're evaluating this process and how
it works, and they'll use that evaluation to determine whether
or not they roll it.
Speaker 5 (15:16):
Out to more stores.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
But that's enough. What do you think of that? It
pisses me off. First, you start eliminating employees. You want
to automate, and I understand that. I understand the business
side of this. You want to automate, so you want
to drive as many people as possible to self check out.
But then when I use the self checkout, you automatically
(15:40):
assume that I'm stealing something When I take my bag
out of my cart, I guess I should put my
bag over my shoulder and walk through the store with
my bag on my shoulder so it doesn't look like
I'm stealing my bag. Or maybe I should check my
bag when I come in and say, see, I have
a bag here, I'm gonna put stuff in it. Is
that okay with you?
Speaker 5 (15:59):
Is it okay?
Speaker 3 (16:01):
I'm to the point where I got one item. I'd
rather pay a penny more for that item and have
a person check me out than to go through. And
and if you see this video, which I assume Dragon's
gonna put.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
Up Aventure, Michael says, go here dot com.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
See I knew you. See he's not as he's not
as dumb as he looks, I promise you. Then I
don't like the idea. I don't know whether it's a taser.
I don't care. I don't know whether it's it's it's
a glock, I don't know what. But he is wearing
he is he is wearing some sort of body armor,
and he is wearing some sort of weapon on his hip.
(16:36):
I don't like that.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
I don't like it.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
And to mister Saker's point, you sign up here for
your membership at Sam's or at Costco. That's part of
the membership agreement. So I can choose to, you know,
agree abide by that or not abide by it. And
there have been times when I've just gone through Costco
or I've gone out of Sam's and there's been a
big long line and somebody, you know, the person that
(17:00):
said I need to see your receipt, and I've just
held it up as I walked out, and they just
let me go. I'm not trying to be a jerk.
I'm just like, I don't want to stand here. You've
made me. And even it's at Sam's, it's predominantly self checkout.
So you're either going to provide checkers so that I
can walk out of the store, or you're going to
(17:23):
and get rid of the automatic or the self checkout,
or you're going to get rid of these arm guards.
Then the other point that really bugs me about this.
You want to talk about the degradation of American society,
We've got armed guards in the grocery store. What is
this Chicago? What is this DC? Well, DC prior to
(17:45):
the National Guard. Huh no, no, stop, just stop.
Speaker 10 (18:03):
Borning boys, Hey, Mike, think I'm gonna have to go
the other direction. Climate change disproportionately affects men. We're the
ones that are out paving roads, digging holes, putting shingles
on roofs, throwing bricks, building fences, you name it. So
I respectfully rebuff per claim and go the other direction.
Speaker 5 (18:30):
Have a great day.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
Well, let me tell you are unequivocally incorrect. I have
been now called a sexist Guber ninety nine rights, Michael,
you sexist, and I know that whether it's a male
or female is serious because there's an exclamation point after
the word sexist. You have no idea, they write, you
(18:55):
have no idea how we women suffer under boob sweat
with your alter ego Michelle double D. And you just
might understand goober forty eight triple D.
Speaker 6 (19:10):
I used to weigh over three hundred and fifty pounds,
so I know all about the under boob sweat.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
But truthfully, didn't you have under boob sweat whether it
was a perfect seventy two degrees out or one hundred
and two degrees out? Yeah? Okay, thank you, that's kind
of what I thought. Yeah yeah. So, so don't give
me your you know, former fat guy boob sweat problems,
because you know you probably have boop sweat when it
(19:38):
was fifty five degrees out.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
Why do you think I wear shorts all the damn time?
Speaker 3 (19:42):
I know you're the most gold blood and warm blood
whatever it is individual life. You and Daryl Luby, remember
Daryl Luby. I mean, it would be a blizzard outside,
sneakers and shorts.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Better believe it.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
Had he'd have a park on but sneakers and shorts.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
But Daryl wasn't big, so that's true. Yeah, at least
I got the big guy.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
Excuse Dragon, triple D triple D Dragon not anymore. I
know it. I'm very proud of you, as we all are.
So what do you think? Well here zero four three
three Michael, Michael, I never stop with those receipt checks.
If there's a line, I just go around walk out
the door. If they have reason to believe I'm stealing,
(20:23):
then call the cops. I feel that once I pay
for whatever I buy, then those products belong to me
and I shouldn't have to prove to anyone that I
now own the products that I just purchased. What say you,
mister Redbeard.
Speaker 6 (20:35):
I know somebody who was actually stopped by one of
those receipt checkers that they made them feel like a
criminal because they the receipt checker pointed out something that
was in their cart that wasn't paid for and the
person if.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
This person was at a regular checkout.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
Correct, yeah, I went through a cashier and not self checkout.
And they're just like they scanned everything, so.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
Everything got take them out of the cart, put on
a belt, put on the belt, and little soccer if
there was one, put it in a bite exactly. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (21:05):
So this person was very frazzled and made to feel
like a criminal because of something they had no control over.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
So they were.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
And you told me during the break that this person
told you they went through item by item.
Speaker 6 (21:20):
Yeah, the receipt checker, it went scanned it, looked in
the cart.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Scanned it like the bar code or something like.
Speaker 6 (21:28):
Basically went the item one, item two, item four, item five,
and then looked into the cart. Didn't see and I
saw an item in the cart, didn't see it on
the receipt, went scanned the receipt again.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
I am one.
Speaker 6 (21:39):
I didn't too, Adam three didn't see it and said,
excuse me, can you show me where this item is
on the receipt.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
And that whether I mean, they obviously looked at the
receipt thing and I was like, that's when they realized went.
Speaker 6 (21:52):
Through the checkout lane. So whoever checked me out didn't
scan it. I don't see it here on the receipt.
You need to pay for this side. Wow, Yeah, like
I said, that makes you like they were idiot, very frazzled,
very frazzled in the whole situation.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
And rightfully so, because it wasn't their mistake exactly. Yeah,
do you ever, because I've on the few times that
I've done the serious grocery shopping, I don't sit and watch.
I'm usually looking at my phone and occasionally I'll look
up to see what the running tally is and think
to myself, holy craft, this is expensive. But I've never
(22:30):
liked I don't even like to listen to the beeps.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
I just trust the professional. Let them do their job.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
Well, I think you hit the nail on the head.
That is their job. Yeah, it hard to scan the items,
and it wasn't like it was left in the cart correct,
So when the car got pulled around, it was still
in the cart. It actually got put on the gun.
Speaker 6 (22:51):
I wasn't like the toilet paper that you keep on
the bottom rack, the soda cases that you keep on
that it was in the car. It was on the belt.
The checker just didn't.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Michael forty seven eighteen. Don't put your bag down until
you put your first item in it. If it sees
two items move there, it thinks you're stealing. That's not
what occurred. I understand what you're saying. But so I
walk in the store. I get the mini cart because
(23:28):
I know I'm going to get well, I know I'm
going to get four items, but two of the items
are gallon jugs of distilled water. So I don't want
to walk around carrying them. So I get a small cart.
So I get the two items. I get the two
jugs of distilled water. I get the two other items.
I cry, Frank, you don't remember what they are now.
(23:48):
But when I got the mini cart, I put my
canvas bag kind of half ass in the cart, you know,
it was kind of laying halfway in the cart and
kind of draping over the cart, and I just put
the items on the part that was on top of
the bag, the canvas bag that was in the cart.
I go to the checkout. I take out the two
(24:10):
got two gallons of distilled water. Beat, put them on
the place where it weighs it. Beat, put it over there.
Take the two items, put it over there. Take the
fourth item, beat put it over there. And then I
pick up the bag and I put the bag under
my arm. And that's when the little pimple face kid
(24:31):
comes over, so their algorithm sees something that I pick
up but that I don't scan. You know, if you're
going to do that, then have somebody before you shut
me down and waste my time to have some pimple
(24:55):
faced kid who's helping somebody else to finish them probably
the same problem, and then come over to me. You
know what, he didn't even skip a beat. He walked
right over, put his little key card up, cleared it
so I could pay without even looking. And when I
(25:16):
said what's wrong, he then kind of looked around and said, oh,
I bet they think it was your bag. So it's
something that happens all the time. If he was going
to clear the machine so I could scan my credit
card without even determining whether I'd actually stolen something or not,
(25:39):
then why waste your time in the automatic checkout? In
the self checkout. I'm I'm sick of it for several reasons,
because once again, innocent, law abiding citizens are paying the
price for the thugs in our society that engage in
(25:59):
either organize retail theft or just shoplifting or whatever it is.
You and I and I know we pay for it
in the cost of goods, but now we're paying for
it when we're told, hey, listen, we're trying to lower costs,
so we're gonna have you check out your own stuff.
But when you check out your own stuff, we're gonna
accuse you of stealing. So it's gonna take you as
long or longer than if you just went through a
regular checkout line. Bring those checkers back that I'm sick
(26:21):
of that kind of crap, really sick of it. AOC
gets confronted. She's too stupid to realize. I think that
she's being confronted by someone that is co splaying an actor.
But it's freaking hilarious because it's the logical extension of
(26:44):
everything that we've said about climate change and CO two.
What I love about this is it's the logical conclusion
that you have to come to. If CO two is
the problem, they're too many people. If that's the problem,
If net zero is the objective, then just eliminate humans.
(27:05):
And we can't just eat dead people. We got to
eat the babies too, eat the babies, and quite frankly,
we got to start eating the pets, and we ought
to eat all the cows until the cows are gone.
No no more tea bone steaks, But you know, eat
the cows till they are gone, and eat all the
pigs till they're gone. No more bacon, but you know,
eat them until they're gone. And we just keep eating
up the food chain until we start eating the babies,
(27:27):
and then pretty soon we just start eating each other
and then boom, we've saved the planet. Because that's their religion,
that is truly their religion. Eat the babies, Eat the babies.
A bunch of leftists, a bunch of Marxists. They've been
gathering in DC to oppose the re establishment of law
(27:50):
and order. Well, now we've got a chance to hear
their arguments in favor of preferring crime and chaos over
law and order. You'll hear the protesters.
Speaker 5 (28:02):
Next, Michael.
Speaker 6 (28:03):
Michael and Dragon get back to the story about the beavers.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Please. I really like beavers. They're cute, they're fuzzy, they're
fun to play with, and they're very tasty.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
I am worried though, that, as my wife ages, she
will be effected more than I will by climax change.
Speaker 3 (28:28):
Get your hearing checked. You need to go to Sound
Relief and get your hearing checked. It's climate change, not
climax change. I understand that, you know, you may have
that problem, but that's not what we were discussing. So
they're they're opposing the elimination or at least diminishing crime
in Washington d C. I think they prefer the crime
(28:50):
and the chaos. Remember DC is what uh or so
black and so the the people that show up for
the protests don't seem to me to quite fit the
same proportion of the races that reside in the District
(29:13):
of Columbia. If you listen closely, you'll hear that they
want us to oppose white gentrifiers who might restore, you know,
cities that have degenerated into slums at the expense of
a certain population. And that population this phrase they use
(29:34):
I find hilarious based on our earlier conversation about the
same phrase, and how fun.
Speaker 7 (29:42):
In this moment that will determine how the federal takeover will.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Play out in other cities.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
Played for one gentrifyer, Why has Bowser the mayor, allowed
DC to be a playground for the white gentrifiers and
the developers at the extense of the native population. I
love it. They're upset about the native population. Now again
(30:22):
just looking at the video, and I would say, the
video is not ninety five percent black, which would be
a proportional representation of the makeup of d C by demographics,
But it's ninety five percent white. And they're complaining about
the white gentrifiers, and then they're complaining about the native population. Now,
(30:44):
the native population, I think consists of blacks that comprise
the local power base for Democrats. Here was I here,
I was thinking that they came, you know, from some
foreign country where they came from the South after the
white gentrifiers had drained the swamps and built the capital
city on the Potomac. No, not not that at all.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
Can't you say fight back? Can't can't fight, can't fight,
can't fight.
Speaker 10 (31:19):
Can't.
Speaker 5 (31:21):
Say stick together.
Speaker 3 (31:24):
They would talk about freeing of DC, defendive d C,
and all these baby talk about this solution, We're gonna
free d C. They have, They've freed it of crime.
And I can find on my X timeline hundreds of
black people talking about how they finally feel safe. You should,
(31:44):
you should know your base. Apparently Democrats don't
Okay, Michael, I used to be an amateur fighter.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
I used to show people my left hand a lot
before i'd hit them with my right. And I'm pretty
sure that's kind of what Trump is doing with this
burning there the American flag executive order, and that's probably
what you're trying to say, but I'm kind of stupid
and slow on the uptake. Thanks.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Well, then you fit right in with me, dragging in
the rest of the goobers.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
And the first step is admitting it.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
That's right, and we both admit we're just dumber in
the box of rocks. During the break, I received an email,
and I'm not going to give this person the satisfaction
of saying their name on air, because I just I
don't want them getting credit for this. But they accused me.
You saw it too, drying of sexism, absolute sexism when
(00:53):
it comes to climate change. We don't care about the
intersectionality of climate change and women, and they they sent
me evidence that it exists. So before I get to
the next story I wanted to get to, I just
(01:14):
wanted to admit that I've listened to. It's ninety seconds long.
I listened to about the first I would say twenty
seconds of it. During the break, it appears to be
some sort of testimony from a birthing person. I would
(01:34):
normally say women because it looks like a female, but
I don't know, so I'm trying to be politically correct.
It's a all inclusive, that's right, all inclusive here, and
well just listen for yourselves.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
I want to start off by addressing one of the
comments that was made by the witnesses around climate hysterics.
Steric's hysteria. It refers to something that is wildly emotional.
It comes from the Greek word.
Speaker 5 (02:08):
Womb of the womb.
Speaker 4 (02:10):
It is used in ancient Greek to refer to things
associated with women.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
That's that's that's at the twenty five second mark, and
that's where I stopped because I don't think she understands
what she just said. The definition of hysteric hysterics a
wildly emotional, an exaggerated reaction, uncontrollable laughter, or as again
(02:43):
as a noun, a person suffering from hysteria, agity relating
to or affected with hysteria. It's a mid seventeenth century
as an agitive via a Latin from the Greek hystoricos
of the womb, as she says, from hysteria womb hysteria
being thought to be specific to women and associated with
(03:09):
the womb. So this woman birthing person is defining hysteria,
which I don't necessarily. I think of someone who is
hysterical hysteria as being a pejority. It's not a good agity.
(03:34):
Dragon sometimes gets hysteric over things I never do. I
always remain calm, cool and collected about everything, just like
I was this morning in our pre production meeting over
that email. How I was calm and.
Speaker 6 (03:47):
Cool about it, right right, right, right right us.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Hysteria is not a word that we normally try to
say around here, because well, we is hysteria.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
I want to start off by addressing one of the
comments that was made by the witnesses around climate hysterics.
Hysterics hysteria it refers to something that is wildly emotional.
It comes from the Greek word.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Womb of the womb.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
It is used in ancient Greek to refer to things
associated with women, and I think, I hope you'll forgive
me if I get emotional. Climate emergencies are not gender neutral.
The degradation of ecosystems disproportionately impacts women and girls.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Degradation of ecosystems disproportionately affects women and girls. Quinn, what
about birthing persons, but namely men and girls, she.
Speaker 4 (04:53):
Continues, and I am wildly emotional. This is the existential
crisis of our time, climate change.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
This poor woman, she is hysterical, and she's out of
her mind. She's crazy.
Speaker 7 (05:16):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
This is the existential crisis of our time, m naturally
occurring climate change, the we're all going to die existential.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
And to hear that asking for high ambition is climate hysteria.
Speaker 5 (05:39):
That makes me wildly emotional.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Absolutely.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
You know, when I think about my womb, you know,
the two children that I bore from that womb, and
what future we are leaving them, I am wildly emotional.
And it's not surprising to hear this from someone who
has written articles that are for life. I think that
(06:03):
we need to think about the intersection of gender and
the climate crisis, and I hope that the people around
this table and the people listening will refrain from using
language like climate hysteria. We are facing a climate emergency.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Some of the comments are pretty funny. Climate hysteria is
like an iceberg. The hysteria is the part above the
water line, and Marxism is below the water line. This
comes to us from the Bureau of Imaginary Problems, the
Climate Change Division. Midnight writer posted Roman title Baths on
(06:52):
the Malta still at sea level after thousands of years,
but climate change is about to kill us, right and
it's a photograph of the Malta. Title Baths on the Malta.
Someone has a definition for a word called clima hard
(07:14):
a person that bleeds. The climate can be changed by
paying a COE two tax to the government. You know,
I might believe that lives. A TikTok has a response. Now,
I'm not gonna use that one. Here they've been crying
wolf for a very long time. From nineteen twelve. A
(07:35):
screenshot of a newspaper article cold consumption affecting climate. The
furnaces of the world are now burning about two trillion
tons of coal a year. When this is burned uniting
with oxygen, it adds about seven trillion tons of carbon
dioxide to the atmosphere yearly. This tends to make the
air a more effective blanket for the Earth and to
(07:57):
raise its temperature. The effect may be conceived in a
few centuries, and I think the best one of all
was allow me to criticize the use of the word
hysterical and now allow me im me to get hysterical
(08:18):
about climate change, and hysterical being its etymology shows us
that it comes from the womb and is basically attributable
to women. It's not me saying that, that's what the
woman is saying. She says she's a woman, she's given
birth to two children, and she fears for their future,
(08:40):
and she is indeed hysterical, absolutely hysterical. This is a sickness,
This is a real disease. And that's all I got
to say about that. I do want to go to
a story that well, the same individuals sent to me,
which I had not heard. I told you before that
(09:02):
my bugaboo with King Soopers, which is our local one
of our local grocery store chains, is that when I
go to that grocery store and I'm doing the self checkout,
which is primarily your main choice now because there are few,
if any checkers to check you out, and there are
(09:23):
virtually no baggers to bag your groceries, so you kind
of get forced into the self checkout. The last time
I used self checkout one day last week. I had
four items and my little University Chicago Institute of Politics
canvas bag to put them in because I happened to
(09:44):
remember to take it in, And when I pulled it
out of my cart to put it under my arm
so I could go over and start putting it in
the bags, suddenly the machine froze up and self help
is on the way, and some people faced kid came
over and reset the machine. As he approaches that I
don't need help, but the machine's frozen up, and he goes,
oh no, they think you're stealing something. Really, and he
(10:07):
again points to the camera over my head, and I'm like,
you know what. I'm to the point where I will
go stand in line and have someone check me out
because I'm tired of being accused every time I go
and I pick up my bag that I take by
the way, where's our money going for the bag fee?
Where is that money? Tell me, tell me where's that
(10:29):
money going. Has it saved the climate yet? Have you
used that money to fill the budget hole? He marks
us out of the polop bureau? Or is it using
is it being used to introduce gray wolves?
Speaker 7 (10:39):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (10:40):
You know what? The latest one is dragging. There was
a story the other day two days ago about beavers. Yes,
are beavers good or bad? And should we allow farmers
and ranchers to blow up beaver dams or should we
be adding more beavers to the state. You all your
(11:01):
own conclusion. Courtesy of nine News, the local NBC affiliate.
Speaker 7 (11:11):
You can get that angry.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
It's a freaking receipt.
Speaker 8 (11:13):
Gilard Choppa says it was a change in duty that
was easy to spot.
Speaker 5 (11:17):
About a month ago. The security guard at her King Soupers.
Speaker 8 (11:20):
Near twenty ninth in Quebec used to watch customers coming in.
Speaker 7 (11:23):
How these security guards have their back to the entrance,
they have no idea who's coming in. They're just watching
customers as they buy their product.
Speaker 8 (11:31):
And the guard, adorned in a security vest, is now
checking every customer's receipt.
Speaker 7 (11:36):
Just doesn't make sense to have someone armed like that,
intimidating customers on their way out.
Speaker 5 (11:44):
It's not the idea of a receipt check that bugs her.
Speaker 7 (11:47):
Every time I go to Costco, that's an expectation. I
know that a staff member who I have seen at
this store for fifteen years is going to check my
purchase it's the person doing it. This guard looks like
us ready to go into a war zone. He's wearing
a bulletproof fist.
Speaker 5 (12:04):
I think it soonons still fear. Plenty of others have
voiced their concerns too.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
I don't think it's right to have to show my
receipt for the food and basic necessities to somebody that.
Speaker 8 (12:17):
Is armed, telling us and airing their grievances on the
new policy on social media.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Hell, no, I'm not showing you my receipt.
Speaker 9 (12:25):
Let me make it a little bit more clearf No,
I am not showing you my receipt.
Speaker 5 (12:29):
So why the change.
Speaker 8 (12:30):
We sent a series of questions to King Soupers, like
why are these receipt checks only in some of their.
Speaker 5 (12:35):
Stores not all of them? Are those security guards armed
with lethal weapons? Are all customers required to show a receipt?
Speaker 8 (12:43):
The company sent us a single paragraph, not answering some questions.
Speaker 5 (12:46):
They said, safety is and core value. Retail crime is
on the rise. They want to keep prices low.
Speaker 8 (12:51):
They've gotten positive feedback about the checks, and they've seen
theft reports go down.
Speaker 9 (12:56):
Each retailer is going to have to take the steps
that they feel are necessary to keep their staff and
their customers and all the products safe.
Speaker 8 (13:04):
Chris Houses, the president of the Colorado Retail Council, which
lobbies for stores across the.
Speaker 9 (13:08):
State, for the public to see retailers responding in kind.
It's unfortunate that has to go that way, but we've
seen people have their arms broken, some of the staff
in Colorado and one retailer or bear sprayed.
Speaker 5 (13:21):
He says, organized retail crime is nearly a billion dollar.
Speaker 8 (13:25):
Problem in Colorado, points to videos like this one from
a few years ago.
Speaker 9 (13:29):
I think every retailer is going to have a broad
spectrum of the difference of what they do at the
front of the store, and we'll see what happens.
Speaker 5 (13:37):
Enough to make Choppa change her routine.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
I'm not shopping here anymore. That's say it for me.
Speaker 5 (13:45):
So what does the law say about this?
Speaker 8 (13:47):
Setting up a receipt check perfectly legal, but simply not
showing a receipt likely isn't enough to detain a shopper.
The law says that stores need probable cause of stuff.
Speaker 5 (13:57):
Like you set off in a larm or you had.
Speaker 8 (13:59):
An employee bought you putting something in your pocket. We
went through one of those receipt checks and refused to
show our receipt the guard.
Speaker 5 (14:06):
Let us go on about our business.
Speaker 8 (14:08):
I'm Steve Staker, Steve on your Side nine News.
Speaker 6 (14:11):
But I mean we're used to it in places like Costco.
Speaker 8 (14:13):
Yeah, and you know there's a difference between Costco and
a grocery store, right Costco, you have a membership Sam's Club,
You have a membership, and if you go to the
membership terms, the agreements that you sign to be a
member at those stores, you say that you're okay with
them doing a receipt check when you leave the store,
and if you don't do it, you could likely lose
your membership privileges, your ability to go to Costco.
Speaker 5 (14:36):
You didn't sign a.
Speaker 8 (14:37):
Similar agreement when you go into a King Supers, but
they absolutely can ask for it. The question is you
don't really have to show it to them, but they
have certain rights to detain you if they think you're stolen.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
I just fear that this may lead to certain confrontations.
Speaker 8 (14:51):
Yeah, you know, and you look at the way that
some of these guards are dressed and you think maybe
it might lead to some confrontations. But again, the retail
consul says, there have been lots of conf frontations out
there and they say this is the kind of thing
that's necessary to combat that type of crime.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
And the stores they choose to do this in. That's
something we got to find out more from King Supers.
We're interested.
Speaker 8 (15:09):
Kings Soupers did say they're evaluating this process and how
it works, and they'll use that evaluation to determine whether
or not they roll it.
Speaker 5 (15:16):
Out to more stores.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
But that's enough. What do you think of that? It
pisses me off. First, you start eliminating employees. You want
to automate, and I understand that. I understand the business
side of this. You want to automate, so you want
to drive as many people as possible to self check out.
But then when I use the self checkout, you automatically
(15:40):
assume that I'm stealing something When I take my bag
out of my cart, I guess I should put my
bag over my shoulder and walk through the store with
my bag on my shoulder so it doesn't look like
I'm stealing my bag. Or maybe I should check my
bag when I come in and say, see, I have
a bag here, I'm gonna put stuff in it. Is
that okay with you?
Speaker 5 (15:59):
Is it okay?
Speaker 3 (16:01):
I'm to the point where I got one item. I'd
rather pay a penny more for that item and have
a person check me out than to go through. And
and if you see this video, which I assume Dragon's
gonna put.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
Up Aventure, Michael says, go here dot com.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
See I knew you. See he's not as he's not
as dumb as he looks, I promise you. Then I
don't like the idea. I don't know whether it's a taser.
I don't care. I don't know whether it's it's it's
a glock, I don't know what. But he is wearing
he is he is wearing some sort of body armor,
and he is wearing some sort of weapon on his hip.
(16:36):
I don't like that.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
I don't like it.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
And to mister Saker's point, you sign up here for
your membership at Sam's or at Costco. That's part of
the membership agreement. So I can choose to, you know,
agree abide by that or not abide by it. And
there have been times when I've just gone through Costco
or I've gone out of Sam's and there's been a
big long line and somebody, you know, the person that
(17:00):
said I need to see your receipt, and I've just
held it up as I walked out, and they just
let me go. I'm not trying to be a jerk.
I'm just like, I don't want to stand here. You've
made me. And even it's at Sam's, it's predominantly self checkout.
So you're either going to provide checkers so that I
can walk out of the store, or you're going to
(17:23):
and get rid of the automatic or the self checkout,
or you're going to get rid of these arm guards.
Then the other point that really bugs me about this.
You want to talk about the degradation of American society,
We've got armed guards in the grocery store. What is
this Chicago? What is this DC? Well, DC prior to
(17:45):
the National Guard. Huh no, no, stop, just stop.
Speaker 10 (18:03):
Borning boys, Hey, Mike, think I'm gonna have to go
the other direction. Climate change disproportionately affects men. We're the
ones that are out paving roads, digging holes, putting shingles
on roofs, throwing bricks, building fences, you name it. So
I respectfully rebuff per claim and go the other direction.
Speaker 5 (18:30):
Have a great day.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
Well, let me tell you are unequivocally incorrect. I have
been now called a sexist Guber ninety nine rights, Michael,
you sexist, and I know that whether it's a male
or female is serious because there's an exclamation point after
the word sexist. You have no idea, they write, you
(18:55):
have no idea how we women suffer under boob sweat
with your alter ego Michelle double D. And you just
might understand goober forty eight triple D.
Speaker 6 (19:10):
I used to weigh over three hundred and fifty pounds,
so I know all about the under boob sweat.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
But truthfully, didn't you have under boob sweat whether it
was a perfect seventy two degrees out or one hundred
and two degrees out? Yeah? Okay, thank you, that's kind
of what I thought. Yeah yeah. So, so don't give
me your you know, former fat guy boob sweat problems,
because you know you probably have boop sweat when it
(19:38):
was fifty five degrees out.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
Why do you think I wear shorts all the damn time?
Speaker 3 (19:42):
I know you're the most gold blood and warm blood
whatever it is individual life. You and Daryl Luby, remember
Daryl Luby. I mean, it would be a blizzard outside,
sneakers and shorts.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Better believe it.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
Had he'd have a park on but sneakers and shorts.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
But Daryl wasn't big, so that's true. Yeah, at least
I got the big guy.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
Excuse Dragon, triple D triple D Dragon not anymore. I
know it. I'm very proud of you, as we all are.
So what do you think? Well here zero four three
three Michael, Michael, I never stop with those receipt checks.
If there's a line, I just go around walk out
the door. If they have reason to believe I'm stealing,
(20:23):
then call the cops. I feel that once I pay
for whatever I buy, then those products belong to me
and I shouldn't have to prove to anyone that I
now own the products that I just purchased. What say you,
mister Redbeard.
Speaker 6 (20:35):
I know somebody who was actually stopped by one of
those receipt checkers that they made them feel like a
criminal because they the receipt checker pointed out something that
was in their cart that wasn't paid for and the
person if.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
This person was at a regular checkout.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
Correct, yeah, I went through a cashier and not self checkout.
And they're just like they scanned everything, so.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
Everything got take them out of the cart, put on
a belt, put on the belt, and little soccer if
there was one, put it in a bite exactly. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (21:05):
So this person was very frazzled and made to feel
like a criminal because of something they had no control over.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
So they were.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
And you told me during the break that this person
told you they went through item by item.
Speaker 6 (21:20):
Yeah, the receipt checker, it went scanned it, looked in
the cart.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Scanned it like the bar code or something like.
Speaker 6 (21:28):
Basically went the item one, item two, item four, item five,
and then looked into the cart. Didn't see and I
saw an item in the cart, didn't see it on
the receipt, went scanned the receipt again.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
I am one.
Speaker 6 (21:39):
I didn't too, Adam three didn't see it and said,
excuse me, can you show me where this item is
on the receipt.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
And that whether I mean, they obviously looked at the
receipt thing and I was like, that's when they realized went.
Speaker 6 (21:52):
Through the checkout lane. So whoever checked me out didn't
scan it. I don't see it here on the receipt.
You need to pay for this side. Wow, Yeah, like
I said, that makes you like they were idiot, very frazzled,
very frazzled in the whole situation.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
And rightfully so, because it wasn't their mistake exactly. Yeah,
do you ever, because I've on the few times that
I've done the serious grocery shopping, I don't sit and watch.
I'm usually looking at my phone and occasionally I'll look
up to see what the running tally is and think
to myself, holy craft, this is expensive. But I've never
(22:30):
liked I don't even like to listen to the beeps.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
I just trust the professional. Let them do their job.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
Well, I think you hit the nail on the head.
That is their job. Yeah, it hard to scan the items,
and it wasn't like it was left in the cart correct,
So when the car got pulled around, it was still
in the cart. It actually got put on the gun.
Speaker 6 (22:51):
I wasn't like the toilet paper that you keep on
the bottom rack, the soda cases that you keep on
that it was in the car. It was on the belt.
The checker just didn't.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Michael forty seven eighteen. Don't put your bag down until
you put your first item in it. If it sees
two items move there, it thinks you're stealing. That's not
what occurred. I understand what you're saying. But so I
walk in the store. I get the mini cart because
(23:28):
I know I'm going to get well, I know I'm
going to get four items, but two of the items
are gallon jugs of distilled water. So I don't want
to walk around carrying them. So I get a small cart.
So I get the two items. I get the two
jugs of distilled water. I get the two other items.
I cry, Frank, you don't remember what they are now.
(23:48):
But when I got the mini cart, I put my
canvas bag kind of half ass in the cart, you know,
it was kind of laying halfway in the cart and
kind of draping over the cart, and I just put
the items on the part that was on top of
the bag, the canvas bag that was in the cart.
I go to the checkout. I take out the two
(24:10):
got two gallons of distilled water. Beat, put them on
the place where it weighs it. Beat, put it over there.
Take the two items, put it over there. Take the
fourth item, beat put it over there. And then I
pick up the bag and I put the bag under
my arm. And that's when the little pimple face kid
(24:31):
comes over, so their algorithm sees something that I pick
up but that I don't scan. You know, if you're
going to do that, then have somebody before you shut
me down and waste my time to have some pimple
(24:55):
faced kid who's helping somebody else to finish them probably
the same problem, and then come over to me. You
know what, he didn't even skip a beat. He walked
right over, put his little key card up, cleared it
so I could pay without even looking. And when I
(25:16):
said what's wrong, he then kind of looked around and said, oh,
I bet they think it was your bag. So it's
something that happens all the time. If he was going
to clear the machine so I could scan my credit
card without even determining whether I'd actually stolen something or not,
(25:39):
then why waste your time in the automatic checkout? In
the self checkout. I'm I'm sick of it for several reasons,
because once again, innocent, law abiding citizens are paying the
price for the thugs in our society that engage in
(25:59):
either organize retail theft or just shoplifting or whatever it is.
You and I and I know we pay for it
in the cost of goods, but now we're paying for
it when we're told, hey, listen, we're trying to lower costs,
so we're gonna have you check out your own stuff.
But when you check out your own stuff, we're gonna
accuse you of stealing. So it's gonna take you as
long or longer than if you just went through a
regular checkout line. Bring those checkers back that I'm sick
(26:21):
of that kind of crap, really sick of it. AOC
gets confronted. She's too stupid to realize. I think that
she's being confronted by someone that is co splaying an actor.
But it's freaking hilarious because it's the logical extension of
(26:44):
everything that we've said about climate change and CO two.
What I love about this is it's the logical conclusion
that you have to come to. If CO two is
the problem, they're too many people. If that's the problem,
If net zero is the objective, then just eliminate humans.
(27:05):
And we can't just eat dead people. We got to
eat the babies too, eat the babies, and quite frankly,
we got to start eating the pets, and we ought
to eat all the cows until the cows are gone.
No no more tea bone steaks, But you know, eat
the cows till they are gone, and eat all the
pigs till they're gone. No more bacon, but you know,
eat them until they're gone. And we just keep eating
up the food chain until we start eating the babies,
(27:27):
and then pretty soon we just start eating each other
and then boom, we've saved the planet. Because that's their religion,
that is truly their religion. Eat the babies, Eat the babies.
A bunch of leftists, a bunch of Marxists. They've been
gathering in DC to oppose the re establishment of law
(27:50):
and order. Well, now we've got a chance to hear
their arguments in favor of preferring crime and chaos over
law and order. You'll hear the protesters.
Speaker 5 (28:02):
Next, Michael.
Speaker 6 (28:03):
Michael and Dragon get back to the story about the beavers.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Please. I really like beavers. They're cute, they're fuzzy, they're
fun to play with, and they're very tasty.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
I am worried though, that, as my wife ages, she
will be effected more than I will by climax change.
Speaker 3 (28:28):
Get your hearing checked. You need to go to Sound
Relief and get your hearing checked. It's climate change, not
climax change. I understand that, you know, you may have
that problem, but that's not what we were discussing. So
they're they're opposing the elimination or at least diminishing crime
in Washington d C. I think they prefer the crime
(28:50):
and the chaos. Remember DC is what uh or so
black and so the the people that show up for
the protests don't seem to me to quite fit the
same proportion of the races that reside in the District
(29:13):
of Columbia. If you listen closely, you'll hear that they
want us to oppose white gentrifiers who might restore, you know,
cities that have degenerated into slums at the expense of
a certain population. And that population this phrase they use
(29:34):
I find hilarious based on our earlier conversation about the
same phrase, and how fun.
Speaker 7 (29:42):
In this moment that will determine how the federal takeover will.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Play out in other cities.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
Played for one gentrifyer, Why has Bowser the mayor, allowed
DC to be a playground for the white gentrifiers and
the developers at the extense of the native population. I
love it. They're upset about the native population. Now again
(30:22):
just looking at the video, and I would say, the
video is not ninety five percent black, which would be
a proportional representation of the makeup of d C by demographics,
But it's ninety five percent white. And they're complaining about
the white gentrifiers, and then they're complaining about the native population. Now,
(30:44):
the native population, I think consists of blacks that comprise
the local power base for Democrats. Here was I here,
I was thinking that they came, you know, from some
foreign country where they came from the South after the
white gentrifiers had drained the swamps and built the capital
city on the Potomac. No, not not that at all.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
Can't you say fight back? Can't can't fight, can't fight,
can't fight.
Speaker 10 (31:19):
Can't.
Speaker 5 (31:21):
Say stick together.
Speaker 3 (31:24):
They would talk about freeing of DC, defendive d C,
and all these baby talk about this solution, We're gonna
free d C. They have, They've freed it of crime.
And I can find on my X timeline hundreds of
black people talking about how they finally feel safe. You should,
(31:44):
you should know your base. Apparently Democrats don't
