Speaker 5 (00:27):
Welcome to a replay of the Armstrong and Getty Show.
We're off all week long. We give a lot of thanks,
we eat a lots, we watch a lot of football.
We'll come back refreshed. But I hope you enjoyed this stuff.

Speaker 3 (00:37):
It's going to be really good, some delicious leftovers if
you will. The flavors have made friends overnight in the

Speaker 5 (00:50):
I'm way more optimistic about a Trump second term than
I was a first term. Actually, I think I think
the reception of the media to this election is so
much better than last time around. They're taking it as
real and America has spoken and blah blah blah, he's
the president. That's not the way it was in twenty sixteen.

(01:12):
It was seen as a joke and something went wrong
and we'll figure it out soon and he won't be president.
But I mean, this is crazy. That's not the way
it's been taking this time around. He's a Russian agent.
It's illegitimate.

Speaker 3 (01:23):
The race did, and then the way it did, and
then four years later, when Trump was in a complete
a hole about losing an election, they were just a
gas to election denial. I swear, I don't know how
do you even deal with these people? Speaking of which
she makes it clear later in the clip, but this
woman is a professional political analyst.

Speaker 4 (01:40):
I do not know her name.

Speaker 3 (01:42):
And this was posted at five pm election night.

Speaker 4 (01:48):
Listen to this, would you?

Speaker 6 (01:51):
Okay, So we're closing in on almost five pm Eastern time,
and I've been tracking everything that's been going on across
the country today.

Speaker 5 (02:00):
The most important encounter was.

Speaker 7 (02:02):
When I went out to get my champagne. I was
talking to the guy in the store, of course, asking
him did he vote, and he said he did early voting,
and he asked me if I early voted, And he
asked me, you know why I was getting the champagne,

(02:22):
and I said, because I'm going to be toasting Madam
President tonight. And he just looked at me with kind
of like a smirk on his face, and I said,
you know she's she's going to win.

Speaker 6 (02:32):
This, right He said, oh, well, it's very, very close.
And I said, no, it's not. He says, well, what
do you mean. I said, no, it's not. The women
of America are making their voices heard. Reproductive rights is
what it all comes down to, and the women are
voting in numbers relative to men that are unbelievable.

Speaker 3 (02:51):
She's won this.

Speaker 6 (02:52):
And I said to him, she's going to take every
one of the swing states plus plus Iowa. And he said, oh,
but the numbers are so close. I said, I'm a
political analyst. I'm telling you right now, the numbers are there.
She's taking this election.

Speaker 8 (03:06):
I've said to him, you realized, And he didn't tell
me who he voted for, but of course I knew,
and I said, you do realize you wasted your vote, right,
And I didn't care.

Speaker 4 (03:19):
I walked out with my bottle of.

Speaker 7 (03:21):
Champagne and happily walked home, Bye bye.

Speaker 4 (03:28):
Bye bye. So that wasn't that. It's the end. So
where was he she getting her information?

Speaker 3 (03:37):
She's a political analyst, stupid idiot.

Speaker 5 (03:40):
And I wonder where she was getting her info because
we talked about how, like Drudge's headline yesterday was world
shocked by trump reelection? Why why was anybody shocked. I
saw so many headlines of the shocking it is shocking.
The overall arc of the story is beyond shocking. I mean,
it's the most amazing thing that Trump has come back

(04:01):
and president again. But in terms of the result on
Tuesday night, after months of the election being tied, and
every polster in America saying it's a coin.

Speaker 4 (04:11):
Flip, how can you be shocked by a coin flip?
That makes you crazy?

Speaker 3 (04:15):
I did see some speculation about, well, if turnout among
women is acts, and they often turn out more than men,
blah blah blah. But to have that sort of like smug,
contemptuous certainty of it, I mean that says more about
her character than about the statistics. I can't remember which
of the great thinkers it was who said, when you

(04:36):
lose the capacity to say I might be wrong, you've
lost your humanity, and she clearly has, as have so
many people.

Speaker 5 (04:45):
My favorite piece I read was a column in the
New York Times last night how should we talk to
our kids to ourselves about America? And this person discussed
how they have a three year old girl and they
were watching the election results and or waiting till it
was called for Kamala Harris, and they were gonna go
up and they were gonna wake up their three year old,
but they're gonna hold her hand while she was sleeping

(05:06):
and saying a woman has just become president. But then
when it turned out what happened, what happened?

Speaker 4 (05:12):
I'm on the edge of my seat when it turned
out Trump won.

Speaker 5 (05:16):
This soft headed, simpering, overly emotional, but has a job
writing for The New York Times, which is one of
the coolest jobs in the world. For as a writer
went up and held the hand of his sleeping three
year old girl and cried softly and said, I will
protect you from this.

Speaker 4 (05:36):
That's what he wrote in the New York Times.

Speaker 3 (05:38):
He could have said, it's significantly less likely you'll be
raped by a Venezuelan gang member. Could have said that
to her.

Speaker 5 (05:46):
Could have said, your dad is a soft head who's
gonna raise you in a like distorted view of reality,
so good luck to you.

Speaker 4 (05:54):
I could have said that all right. I could have said,
you practically do have two mommies. Well that's not fair.
Funny but not fair.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
Who are you people?

Speaker 4 (06:09):
I mean?

Speaker 5 (06:09):
I I swear if Kamala had won in a landslide
out of thought.

Speaker 4 (06:14):
Wow, that's what America wants. Don't know, that's about it,
and just how.

Speaker 3 (06:21):
Yeah, yeah, her pitch succeeded with a hell of a
lot of people.

Speaker 4 (06:24):
I'll be damned.

Speaker 3 (06:25):
I really It's been said that the most terrifying journey
you could ever take is into somebody else's mind. And
I really I mean that guy for instance. I suspect
very strongly that he is just the sort of person
who is ruled by his emotions and enjoys the sensation
of being afraid because then he can bond to other
people and they can be afraid together and that feels good,

(06:48):
and it must feel like really really crazy good or something,
or they've never had any reality other than that, so
they don't even understand what they're doing. But I am
honestly mystified at their inability to assess a loss and
try to.

Speaker 4 (07:06):
Come up with an.

Speaker 3 (07:08):
Explanation for it that might well include them having been
wrong or misperceived the electorate. And I don't mean, yeah,
I misperceived. I thought they were only kind of racists.
Turns out there just about the country of kleinsmen. Just
good luck, y'all. Good luck. Life is hard with a
grasp of reality. I can't imagine it is, how difficult

(07:30):
it is when all you see are fairies and unicorns
dancing around your head, and scary evil demons as well. Yeah,
I don't imaginary klansmen haunt your dreams. I was talking
to one of my kids who who tends to vote
the other way, which is fine. Again, I'm not offended
or hurt by that. Thanksgiving Oh absolutely not. No, they

(07:53):
can eat outside of the porch in the gold but
they had hum And many people have this view of
Trump that's crazy and belligerent and warmonger or whatever.

Speaker 4 (08:06):
Because he's crazy belligerent. Oh yeah, he's those things.

Speaker 3 (08:10):
But if I could teach one thing, if I could
teach like a foreign relations class or something in a college,
there'd be one lesson weakness invites aggression. I would say,
class number one. That will be on the test. In fact,
that's the entire test. I'll see at finals. Go get

(08:34):
laid or drink beer or whatever y'all do these days.
We're done play video games, right exactly, except I'd make
him come to class, and they'd come to class the
next time, and I'd say weakness invites aggression we're through here,
and then the next Tuesday they have to show up again.

Speaker 4 (08:55):
That's interesting.

Speaker 5 (08:56):
That's an interesting idea actually of teaching class because there
are a number of classes where there is one overpowering
thing you should know and if it gets lost in
all the other stuff, then you wasted your time.

Speaker 4 (09:10):
Yeah, I took it.

Speaker 5 (09:12):
I think I took like one class on the law
in my whole college career. But the guy said, like
every class period, you can settle at any time. And
he said it every class period, and it did stick
in my head. If you heard her, any centered sort
of situation, you can settle at any time, which was
his point.

Speaker 3 (09:31):
Yeah, I have the details. Presidential candidate Governor Gavin Newsom
I put in the presidential candidate part today issued a
proclamation convening a special session of the California Legislature to
safeguard California values and fundamental rights in the face of
an incoming Trump administrat.

Speaker 5 (09:50):
That's all crap you nailed at the beginning, though, I
heard somebody say yesterday because Pete buddhajeedg is given a
speech either today or tomorrow, and they said, that's the
first shot fire across the bow of the twenty twenty
eight primaries. This is Gavin Newsom heard that, and WHOA
Pete's in already, they're already talking about Pete. He announces this.
This gets attention. That's absolutely one hundred percent what this is.

(10:13):
This is the first shot from Gavin Newsom of I'm
going to be the nominee in twenty eight.

Speaker 3 (10:17):
The special session will focus on both string California legal
resources to protect civil rights. Now, if you want a
productive freedom climate action and immigrant families.

Speaker 5 (10:26):
Now, if you want to hold us both down, sit
on our chest and pluck out our eyes with spoons.
For bringing up, for bringing up the twenty eight primaries already.

Speaker 4 (10:35):
I don't think we'd be getting off light.

Speaker 5 (10:38):
I'm on your side on this, but I think that's
absolutely what this is. Well, that's interesting. H enjoy that, Democrats.
I'm not paying attention to it for at least a
couple of years.

Speaker 3 (10:47):
This is the first of several actions by the Newsomb
administration in partnership with the legislature, as the governor begins
shoring up California's defenses against an incoming federal administration that
has threatened the.

Speaker 5 (10:59):
State on multiple He wants to plant his flag as
the leader of the resistance, You're gonna be hearing a
lot about that. Gonna be constantly tweeting, texting, and speech
to find about Trump as he becomes the resistance. Oh
my god, that's gonna be tiring. We've got history of
planting this flag.

Speaker 4 (11:15):
Huh. Wow. We're all human, we all fall short sometimes.
I know I do more on the way Stay.

Speaker 1 (11:22):
Armstrong, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty The Armstrong and Getty Show.

Speaker 4 (11:36):
Benezuelan Prison Gang AGUA or TDA.

Speaker 9 (11:40):
Homeland Security officials have more than one hundred criminal investigations
nationwide into TDA, including for sex, trafficking and shooting police officers,
calling TDA the next MS thirteen.

Speaker 5 (11:52):
So okay, I know about MS thirteen. I've been hearing
about him for years now. I got to remember this one. Huh.

Speaker 3 (11:57):
I'm a little wary of any headline that includes the
phrase on steroids, but it has been pointed out that
these folks are aggressively expansionist, well organized, and just absolutely brutal.
This is the gang, and I almost hate to get
off on this note because it's unintentionally hilarious. This was

(12:17):
the gang that had taken over that prison in Venezuela,
and they had a zoo and a nightclub and a
swimming pool, among other things. You shouldn't, I mean, guys
making Pruno in the toilet. I understand it's tough to police.
But you got a zoo.

Speaker 4 (12:36):
Night club.

Speaker 5 (12:37):
You didn't notice the zebras, You didn't notice the thump
and music and.

Speaker 3 (12:41):
The bar at night. Yeah, there was a bar. Absolutely,
there's a bar anyway. That just speaks to the Venezuelan
prison situation. But I just wanted to throw a bunch
of headlines for you. I was going to I was
looking for a specific article from the Associated Press because
it is notable. I think that the liberal media is
now abandon their utter idiotic need to soft pedal or

(13:05):
you know, ride the brakes on any story that makes
them uncomfortable because it involves a particular ethnicity. I mean
Andy No, for instance, this is the activist Seattle based
or Portland. I guess he's Portland based activist who's been
calling out Antifa and the radical left and the Marxists
and the monsters. And he also is big on the

(13:28):
situation in England where immigrants, specifically Muslim immigrants, are organizing
these sex trafficking rings that target young English girls and
ply them with alcohol and drugs and the rest of it.
The numbers are horrific, the stories are terrible, and it
is not some tiny, little isolated thing.

Speaker 4 (13:46):
That's why I say the numbers are terrific.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
But there has been a complete under discussion of these
terrible crimes against young girls because everybody feels a little.

Speaker 4 (13:58):
Uncomfortable with talking about out. These guys are Muslims, and we've.

Speaker 3 (14:03):
Got to somehow be better than that, Be bigger than that,
be smarter than that. If you're not a bigot, don't
worry about being called a bigot.

Speaker 4 (14:14):
Be unbigoted.

Speaker 3 (14:15):
That's a good way to insulate yourself from accusations of bigotry.

Speaker 4 (14:19):
Anyway, maybe here's a good place to put in this.

Speaker 5 (14:21):
I was just thinking, as you're talking about the Venezuelan
gang having their own nightclub in the prison, do you
remember the scene scenes in.

Speaker 4 (14:33):
Good Fellas.

Speaker 5 (14:34):
I guess about how when those mobsters would go to
prison and they just you know, they had all they'd
make these great, big, giant meals. It was a fantastic
It's just you know, they were stuck in prison, but
they had their cells together and they had furniture, and
they made big meals and the guards took care of
them and everything like that. Not to the level of

(14:54):
a zoo and a nightclub, but in that area. And
so are we okay with it when it's Sicilians and Italians,
but not okay within it Hispanic I don't. I'm not
saying that, I guess, but there is a history of
this with gangs, I guess.

Speaker 4 (15:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (15:12):
Well, yeah, they project power and they influence people through
the projection.

Speaker 4 (15:16):
Yeah, that's power, I think. I guess.

Speaker 5 (15:18):
It's a different topic. It's always been weird how we
I look at mobsters as kind of cool, except for
the reality of the crime.

Speaker 4 (15:26):
It's been romanticized, no doubt.

Speaker 3 (15:29):
Yeah, thanks to The Godfather being so beautifully written and everything. Anyway,
the mainstream media has finally caught up to this story
about trendy Iraguo. They've been late to the party, as
they often are. And I was going to grab a
specific ap story that Katie mentioned, but in looking for it,
I came across kind of an interesting pastiche ap. Trendy

(15:49):
Iragua gang started in Venezuela's prisons, now spreads fear in
the US your post Chicago gang.

Speaker 4 (15:57):
How'd they get here? That's what I don't understand.

Speaker 3 (16:00):
They must have filled they must have forged the paperwork
to immigrate, gone through the process, and during that long
and arduous, expensive process, our immigration officials failed to oh
or they just walked across the border and we let
him in. Willy Nelly, eighty five percent of the people
who come to the border are let in by the
Biden administration.

Speaker 4 (16:18):
Good point.

Speaker 3 (16:20):
Let's see New York Post Chicago gang bangers face off
against Venezuelans. Also in the New York Post, Trendy Iragua
gang banger charged over viral video of gun toting apartment
invasion ksat which.

Speaker 4 (16:35):
Is where is that? This say?

Speaker 3 (16:37):
It's probably San Antonio. What you need to know about
the Venezuelan gang that Texas is targeting. New York Times
A Venezuelan gang reaches New York Fox News NYPD targeting
Venezuelan gang Trendy Iragua. Here is a I believe this
is a Colorado Canyon County sheriff addressers reports about Trendy
Iragua gang. It goes on and on and on. There

(16:59):
are or five or six states here. At first blush
that are covered by this story. Many many people will
be hurt and killed by these animals, as so many people,
and we will continue to hear immigrants actually commit crimes at.

Speaker 5 (17:14):
Lower rates than a native born Americans, which may be true,
but that doesn't matter.

Speaker 3 (17:19):
Mention that at the funerals of the five hundred people
who are dead and will never be alive again. Are
those pistol whipped or raped, or trafficked or abused in
other ways terrorized for weeks on end? Mention that to
them or can they'll be comforted?

Speaker 2 (17:32):
Armstrong the Armstrong and Ngetti show.

Speaker 8 (17:51):
Stop.

Speaker 10 (17:51):
President elects Donald Trump confirming once he takes office, he
will declare a national emergency and use the military to
help carry out his plans for mass deportations of undocumented immigrants.
Tom Homan saying criminals will be the first to go.
Homan says he's heading down tomar a Lago this week
to put the quote final touches on a plan.

Speaker 5 (18:13):
So that's gonna be one of the biggest stories of
the very early part of the Trump administration. I just
saw Washington, No the Hill. The Hill had the headline
Trump promised to be a dictator. On Day one, how
Democrats can push back, so that seriously, I know, I know,
you realize that sort of talk got Trump elected. But anyway,

(18:37):
that is going to be the probably the first biggest thing.
He says that that's going to be the priority on
day one is to get the deportation thing started. So
that'll be your first hullabaloo. Then you got the confirmation
process for a bunch of different candidates.

Speaker 4 (18:52):
We all know that one. And then the whole.

Speaker 5 (18:53):
Tax thing hits, the Trump tax cuts and how they're
going to be handled. So the first year is going
to be jazzy man.

Speaker 4 (18:59):
Well, we're gonna hear hot and cold running fake outrage.
For sure.

Speaker 3 (19:03):
I liked the clip we played earlier Scott Jennings saying,
you know, during Obama's time, he was deporting people that crazy.

Speaker 4 (19:09):
Don't where was your outrage then your phonies?

Speaker 5 (19:11):
Right, which is worth bringing up in a second, we'll
get back to the deportations. Wanted to hear from Tom Holman,
who is going to be Trump's immigration czar?

Speaker 4 (19:21):
Is that his official time the head of the CBP?
What is he going to be?

Speaker 5 (19:28):
Yeah, he's a guy yelling and talking about illegals, and
this is particularly talking some about the deportation and the
Lake and Riley trial that's going on. She was killed
by an illegal here's him yesterday.

Speaker 11 (19:39):
Look, he should have been he should have been arrested
by ICE in New York City. But there's saying Suury City.
He should never be in the country. Under President Trump,
he wouldn't have been here. He would have been waiting
in Mexico under Remain in Mexico program. But here's what
I want for all those mayors and governors who said
they're going to push back in Ice to do this operation.
I want you to listen to that tape of the
young that young lady fighting for her life, fighting for
her breath. She did not want to die, and she

(20:01):
fought hard. Listen to it. Just don't say, okay, another
one died. I want you listen to the struggles because
that happens across this country almost every day by an
illegal alien. So I want those sanctuarys city people out
of the stay they're gonna push back in Ice. Listen
to that and tell me I just said President Trump
wants to take public safety threats off the street. That's
a priority as elected mayor of elected governor. Are you
telling me that you don't want public safety trusts out

(20:24):
of your communities. That is your number one responsibility to
protect your community.

Speaker 4 (20:27):
So smart enough and work with us.

Speaker 3 (20:29):
I loved what he said the other day too. He said,
all right, you're a city, you're a sanctuary city. You're
not going to work with us. We're going to send
enough ice agents to get the job done. It's not
going to impede us for a minute. You're going to
make it harder for us to do our jobs. We
are going to flood your city with ice agents.

Speaker 5 (20:45):
That Lincoln Riley trial is going on, it's pretty damn gruesome,
so I haven't followed it.

Speaker 4 (20:50):
It's heartbreaking.

Speaker 5 (20:51):
Yeah, it's just awful. It's not surprising. I guess that
practically all headlines about it when they covered it, all
don't mention the guy being illegal, like in the first
paragraph or anything. That's why you've heard her name. Lots
of people get killed, unfortunately, across the country, and they
don't become a national story. Do you know why this

(21:13):
one's a national story? Because she was killed by an illegal.
That's the whole reason it's a story.

Speaker 3 (21:17):
And I heard I haven't independently verified this that the
federal government shipped the guy, having not booted him out
of the country, shipped the guy to Georgia because they're
redistributing variously illegal immigrants all over the land, and that's
where he murdered poor miss Riley.

Speaker 5 (21:34):
So we were talking deportations some last hour and the
idea that there are six hundred thousand convicted criminals currently
in the United States. That's the government's own numbers. That's
the number Martha Raddits used on ABC this week Sunday morning.
Six hundred thousand criminals, and that's who the Trump administration

(21:54):
says they're going to start with in terms of deporting
And I was saying, how how can he be against that?
So our friend Tim Sander for Tim the lawyer, weighed in,
texting me on my personal phone. He is a don't
want to put words in his mouth, but he leans
way more toward the libertarian open border's view of the
way the world should run, which would be easier if

(22:16):
we didn't have a welfare state. But I won't get
hung up on that. He texted this, if there are
six hundred thousand illegals who are criminals and you want
to deport them, you give them due process of law. Right,
so at least a hearing. Let's say each hearing lasts
only ten minutes, that's six million minutes. That's eleven years.
Unless Trump succeeds at his next January sixth attempt to
stay in office illegally, his term won't last that long.

(22:39):
So no due process of law. What due process do
you get? Is an illegal or do you have to
have process to figure out if you're illegal? Well, I've
got a philosophical problem with that. I also have a
mathematical problem with that.

Speaker 3 (22:51):
If you have one hundred courts nationwide doing these hearings,
you've cut that timetable by one to one one hundredth.

Speaker 4 (22:59):
Of that or maybe five hundred yards.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
Right, sure, yeah, or set up a quote unquote courte
in every storefront in Mrlo.

Speaker 4 (23:10):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (23:12):
And as far as a due process is concerned, I'm
not an expert on immigration law. I would certainly say, yeah,
it's got to go through that process, whatever that is.

Speaker 5 (23:23):
On the other hand, you don't deserve due process if
you're here illegally, do you? But so the due process
comes in trying to figure out if you're illegal or not,
So you don't snatch citizens or people who have the
proper documentation and send them out.

Speaker 4 (23:36):
Is that the whole thing? Well, well see that's the problem.
We've gotten into a weird space.

Speaker 3 (23:40):
And again, if I was an actual legal expert on this,
I'd be able to lation more informative screed than I'm
about to. But we have reached a point where merely
being in the country illegally is not deemed reason to deport.

Speaker 4 (23:54):
Right, And this has been the problem with illegally real
looking class.

Speaker 5 (23:57):
We've been talking about this for the thirty years, and
it's always the same thing. You allow so much illegal
immigration that it gets into the fabric work of everything,
and then you've got all this pushback about why, well,
who's going to pick the tomatoes? Well, we wouldn't have
gotten so off track with the way our system of
the labor works if we han't allowed so many illegal immigrants.

(24:20):
And then you know, well, we got to give them
driver's license, because how they supposed to get to work
if they're already here working, So tell them they can't drive,
stumb He just keep back dooring all.

Speaker 3 (24:28):
These things, and they're getting free education and healthcare and
the taxpayer funded not free and by the way they
get scholarships to our universities, and now you're going to
boot them out.

Speaker 4 (24:40):
That's that's bizarre.

Speaker 3 (24:41):
Well, you know, given the reality of the Blue States,
yet is kind of bizarre honestly, But you see what
I mean.

Speaker 5 (24:47):
It's just it's so the argument is always you let
them all in and then you come up with all
the reasons that you can't do anything about it.

Speaker 4 (24:55):
Now, well, they had a kid here, so the kid's
a citizens.

Speaker 5 (24:58):
What are you going to do boot the kid out
with the make the parents go or as a kid
going by himself, and a kid has to go to school,
it's the law.

Speaker 4 (25:03):
And they don't speak English, so we.

Speaker 5 (25:05):
Got to have a teacher that speaks the several languages
to make sure that it just gets more and more
complicated all the time.

Speaker 3 (25:10):
Yeah, at a certain point, and you know, corporations can
certainly tell you this. Those that have been you know,
picked up by the scruff of their dysfunctional neck and
shaken and reformed and become successful again by some new
CEO or whatever.

Speaker 4 (25:24):
You have to return to first principles.

Speaker 3 (25:27):
And then when somebody says yeah, but yeah, but yeah,
but no, no, no, there's no compromising on your first principle,
and then if you have to knot a bunch of
things you've nodded up through your terrible policies through the years. Yeah,
that's going to take some time and effort. But don't
don't hit me with up. Yeah but yeah, but yeah.

Speaker 4 (25:44):
But when I say, if you're not here legally, you gotta.

Speaker 5 (25:48):
Go, well, if I was gonna argue it on the
other side, I would say, good job on us. On
the we want as many illegals as possible, which again
we're all guessing as to why that is. Some of
it is big labor needs the workers, so they're cool
with it. And then Democrats wrongly assumed whether they get
enough people coming into this country of other countries, they'd

(26:10):
all be Democrats for life. But that has turned out
to absolutely not be true. So I'm surprised the Democratic
Party hasn't turned somewhat on the immigration thing since a
majority of Hispanic men voted for Trump this time around.

Speaker 4 (26:22):
But anyway, on the side.

Speaker 5 (26:25):
Of wanting it to happen, yeah, it works pretty well
once you get people here. It's just so damn difficult
to boot them out without getting into the due process
problem or the who's going to do the labor or
separating families or all these other knots that you call
them that get knotted up when you allow this in
the first place.

Speaker 3 (26:43):
Yeah, And I would say also to folks expressing what
Tim expressed, which is absolutely a valid point of view.
I mean, clearly, there's got to be two pressed. You
can't just run around grabbing anybody who looks somewhat brown
and heaving them into Warez City.

Speaker 4 (27:00):
Okay, I get that.

Speaker 3 (27:01):
On the other hand, the idea that I don't know,
we might go a little too far in not letting
illegal immigrants stay. I mean, we're like a thousand miles
from that.

Speaker 5 (27:12):
All right. But the question always to me is so
then what so? I guess there's nothing you can do?
I mean, is that it I guess there's nothing to do.
I guess we let in record number week after week,
month after a month, year after year of a legal
life law and there's just nothing you can do at
this point because it violate this or that or be
unfair here or there. And so I guess everybody just
gets to say, is that the answer? Because that sounds

(27:35):
like what the answer is? It's sure something like that. Yeah, yeah,
a completely different topic. Unless you have more on that.

Speaker 4 (27:43):
I don't.

Speaker 3 (27:44):
Well, and again, we've been at it for thirty years,
and God will we'll be at it for thirty more. Actually,
if I'm doing this in thirty years, God strike me down.

Speaker 4 (27:55):
Gold Jeez, you'd be in your you'd be almost.

Speaker 3 (27:58):
Ninety right, Yeah, yeah, who'd want to hear that? I
wouldn't want to hear that anyway, It's it's.

Speaker 1 (28:03):
Not going to happen Jack, Armstrong and Joe the Armstrong
and Getty Show.

Speaker 2 (28:11):
See Armstrong and Getty Show.

Speaker 9 (28:21):
Okay, yeah, this.

Speaker 4 (28:23):
Is a crypto burger.

Speaker 6 (28:26):
It's a bitcoin.

Speaker 4 (28:29):
The name a bitcoin and a crypto Trump buying some
burgers with crypto money? Is that what happened there? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (28:36):
Exactly he uh he said this is a history of
the making after he made the transition transaction at pub Key,
a Greenwich Village tavern that is the spot for crypto enthusiasts.

Speaker 5 (28:50):
On the list of things I need to learn more about, uh,
bitcoin and crypto along with AI to keep up with
the world. If I show up to a burger joint
and I'm really hungry and they say that'll be or
bitcoin or whatever it is, I would pat my pockets
and say go check in my car ash tray, see
if I've got any I don't know.

Speaker 3 (29:09):
I have these pieces of paper the government gave me,
and these plastic Take one of these, this plastic card,
this is capital one on it.

Speaker 4 (29:15):
Do you take that?

Speaker 3 (29:17):
But bitcoin? I do not have, interesting, said Mike Germano,
president of Bitcoin magazine. Pub Key is the drinking hole
for the bitcoin revolution. He's now one of us. Cool
you go success.

Speaker 5 (29:29):
I have no judgment on that because I don't know
anything about it.

Speaker 3 (29:35):
So what five six years ago, what was the hottest, hottest,
hottest thing for a young person to get into to
instantly have a rewarding and high paying career. Software engineer obviously,
headline the journal Tech jobs have dried up and aren't
coming back soon. Employment for software engineers is cool. Does
resources shift toward developing artificial intelligence?

Speaker 4 (30:00):
The artificial intelligence right all the software?

Speaker 5 (30:02):
Probably?

Speaker 4 (30:04):
Yes? Yeah.

Speaker 5 (30:06):
In fact, I know from a friend who is big
encoding that they're disappointed often that they can just tell
their GPT to code something and it does it faster
and better than them, even though they've been doing it
for a long time and they're really good at it.

Speaker 3 (30:21):
The ins and outs and difficulties of transitioning from a
software engineer to a developer of AI. You might as
well ask me about a farmer switching from wheat to barley,
a different seed. I don't know what that looks like,
but evidently it's a real issue for folks in that
swiftly moving Oh yeah, a field to work.

Speaker 5 (30:41):
I don't need undounters understand it to realize very few
people could code, and you have a very unique, valuable skill,
and now all of a sudden, there's a program out
there that can do it immediately. That would be frustrating,
but that happens in every industry throughout the history of time.
There's lots of examples in radio bore you with that
have happened also where valuable skills just went away because

(31:05):
of technology right right posting.

Speaker 3 (31:08):
For software Postings for software development jobs are down more
than thirty percent since Fab twenty twenty. Industry layoffs have
continued this year, with tech companies shedding around one hundred
and thirty seven thousand jobs since January. Any tech workers
too young to have endured the dot com bubble burst
in the early two thousands now for the first time.

Speaker 4 (31:27):
What it's like to hustle to find work.

Speaker 5 (31:29):
I feel like you need to work on your schwaws,
my schwa your schwaws. Whenever you say shedding, it always
makes me, lah, I feel like you're heading.

Speaker 4 (31:40):
I think your schwaws are heading. I don't. That's not
a shwaw, isn't it? Eh? Isn't that swa? E is
ann eh? No, that's short e. Okay? Is like, what's
what's a good examp? What's a good word for saw?

Speaker 5 (31:58):
It's a fun word to say, clearly, Well, we're your
name of our first kid, schwab.

Speaker 4 (32:03):
She was against it. Ah, what's a word with a?
Used to know this? I used to know this too.

Speaker 5 (32:09):
And let me see, this is the sort of thing
my kids asked me with homework now, and I'm like,
I knew this.

Speaker 4 (32:14):
Not only I did I know this. I know I
was good at it, but I don't remember now.

Speaker 3 (32:18):
I had a running joke in English class in high
school with a buddy of mine about the evil schwaw
he lives among us.

Speaker 4 (32:27):
Yes, Katie, do you have a word for us?

Speaker 3 (32:30):
We have? Yeah, it's a It's just a it's a
it's a uh that has no uh identifiable vowel you
can attach to it.

Speaker 4 (32:38):
It's like a tomato. Is it a fruit or vegetable?
You just don't know.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
It's very much like a tomato. Yes, Katy, do you
have anything for us? Or should we just move the
heck on?

Speaker 10 (32:46):
I was just gonna say I was raised in a
middle class households exactly.

Speaker 5 (32:50):
That's everybody's favorite go to now, no matter if somebody
asked you and you don't know the answer to it,
you say, look, I was raised middle class in.

Speaker 4 (33:00):
A neighborhood where people were proud of their lawns.

Speaker 5 (33:03):
That's your god, dude, you gotta do that at work
if the boss asked you, jim your quarterly report.

Speaker 4 (33:08):
Look, I was raised middle class. Uh, mister Getty, you
haven't made a payment in six months. Well let me
tell you. Let me be care. I grew up middle class.
I was raised in a neighborhood. And they're thinking, they're
thinking the same thing. Everybody's saying, what the hell is he?
Oh that's fantastic, what a numb.

Speaker 3 (33:30):
Skull, And yet they're tied. I'm gonna mention this briefly.
I'm gonna have to run for my life. Jack is
going to attempt to beat me with his fists, but
I am going to mention that we are nearing a
government shut down.

Speaker 4 (33:44):
Oh jeez.

Speaker 3 (33:46):
An initial proposal by House Speaker Mike Johnson, et cetera,
Center voted down blah blah blah, underscores the divisions, YadA, YadA,
setting the stage for et cetera, et cetera shutdown at
the end of the month.

Speaker 5 (33:59):
Yeah, with a predictable ending almost certainly true. It'll either
not shut down last minute, or it will shut down
for a couple of days having done nothing, two or
four anyone.

Speaker 4 (34:11):
And that's the whole story.

Speaker 3 (34:13):
So the end, it is one of those they're critically
interested in the Beltway. The rest of us aren't in
the Beltway. We're in America. So good luck, jackasses. If
there's one takeaway, and this is semi obvious and fairly
well worn, but the dynamics of having a tiny minority
have been interesting to see just as a fan of democracy.

(34:37):
Johnson's in a hell of a spot.

Speaker 5 (34:39):
Well, there's legislation that was proposed to avoid the shutdown.
Trump's hardcore against it and urging the speaker to to
to you know, rally people against it, and so he's
either going to defy Trump in an election year on
Trump's pretty popular, or he's going to.

Speaker 4 (34:57):
Go along with Trump and there will be a shutdown likely. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (35:01):
One of the things that the rebel camp is working
hard to get going is extra strong election security, ballot security,
which I think is a great thing.

Speaker 4 (35:10):
I'm with them on that.

Speaker 3 (35:11):
I'm I often find myself at odds with them with
for their methods.

Speaker 4 (35:17):
There are times and places and techniques.

Speaker 3 (35:20):
Sometimes I think they hurt the conservative movement more than
they help it. But I'm certainly in favor of ballot security.

Speaker 4 (35:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (35:26):
The best one that was going around yesterday as a
meme was a picture of BB reporter is Israel behind
the exporting pagers, net and Yahoo. So I was raised
in a middle class family.

Speaker 4 (35:37):
Is perfect. That's got to be everybody's go to from
here on out. Here's your best schwa word.

Speaker 5 (35:43):
Okay, the the va there you go, tg the uh.

Speaker 4 (35:48):
I think it is.

Speaker 5 (35:49):
Yeah, I think you're right. I think you're right. I
think you're right. But regardless, my point is when you
say shedding, it always reads to me as someone is defecating,
the sort of thing you do in front of nordstrooms
in San Francisco, The.
